Chapter 27 Determining the Platform

"I follow the boss's arrangements." Peng Hui was very sensible and did not overstep his authority. Instead, he simply gave the choice back to Wang Cong. Wang Cong seemed very satisfied, smiled and said casually: "In that case, this

I decided to put the film on Kiwi, after all, Kiwi’s price was the most suitable for this movie.”

Seeing Peng Hui's curious eyes, Wang Cong added with a smile: "The company and Kiwifruit will pay according to the popularity. If it reaches 1,000, it will be 500,000, if it reaches 2,000, it will be 1 million, and if it reaches 3,000, it will be 1 million."

Two million."

"Mr. Wang..." Peng Hui asked curiously: "What if it reaches 10,000?"

"Ten thousand?" Wang Cong smiled and said nothing.

Ji Wei on the side started to popularize science in a low voice.

Only then did Peng Hui realize why the data was so low but the payment was so high.

In general, if a movie or TV series has a popularity of 1,000, it is equivalent to the traffic of 10 million clicks.

If the heat is two thousand, then it is twenty million.

The heat is three thousand, which is forty million.

But if the popularity reaches 10,000, it is equivalent to the traffic brought by 100 million clicks!

For online dramas, this simply means a hit!

You must know that even in the entire country, with the development of film and television dramas, the most popular ones are only 100,000.

They are also some classic works that are very popular and topical.

The others are all younger brothers.

In recent years, there have been no TV dramas with 10,000 hits for five or six years.

The closest one is "Smoke in the Capital" which was broadcast the year before last.

Because it is exclusive to kiwi fruit, the popularity is relatively high, reaching 8,000.

Since then, no other work has had more than 8,000 views.

Therefore, in Wang Cong's opinion, it is very rare for this online drama, which only cost one million in total, to reach 3,000 hits.

Ten thousand?

Let’s wait until a big production comes out in the future.

Ye Lin smiled and said nothing.

This drama "Previous Life" is exclusive to Sohu.

But the Sohu platform, to be honest, the traffic is really bad.

There have been "The Man Who Hangs Silk", "Master Wu Xin", "Forensic Doctor Qin Ming", "I Hear Your Voice"...

After waiting for many self-produced or semi-produced web dramas, Tianhu still played a bad hand.

To put it bluntly, there is still something missing that is essential in the Internet age...

Internet comprehensive.

Compared with TV stations, online video platforms have the advantage of lighter censorship, so some self-made online dramas have become very popular dramas.

In the previous life, iQiyi, Youku, Penguin, and Sohu were the four major video websites.

Sohu is only ranked fourth.

The reason why it is ranked fourth is because it is small in size, has low traffic, and even has members that are useless.

It is the one with the worst user experience among the four major video websites.

Crucially, its library is small.

Many popular old dramas do not have copyrights.

Without copyright, there is no way to retain users.

The reason why many people watch movies and TV series online is, on the one hand, to catch up on their emotions. On the other hand, it is to watch popular movies and TV series.

Unfortunately, Sohu cannot do these things.

Compared with iQiyi, which has the most active users, Youku, which has the most total users, and Penguin, which is the richest, Sohu is nothing.

However, despite this, "The Man with a Threaded Silk" still achieved 30 million on-demand views during its popularity period!

When converted into heat, it must be over 3,000!

Not to mention that as the drama becomes more and more popular, many people will choose to watch it in order to catch up on Dapeng and Liu Yan's dramas. This number will only increase!

If you put it on a website that is not that good, it can get 3,000 hits, but what if you put it on Kiwi?

Kiwi is a video website similar to iQiyi in its previous life, famous for its original high-quality drama series and online variety shows.

Although this and the Internet variety shows of the times are very common indoor variety shows, that is, you find a group of people to chat or interview together, or star chefs and the like.

Basically there are not many things to play.

But the heat is still pretty good.

So if "The Man with Hanging Silk" is played on such a website...

I don’t know if this drama can cause a wave of craze.

However, Wang Cong had obviously been prepared for it, and asking Peng Hui was just a sign of respect.

You see, even the sharing ratio has been negotiated. Even if Peng Hui talks about other companies, will it be useful?

But that's nothing.

After all, he is the boss of the company, and I am just an ordinary little screenwriter at this time.

Peng Hui had a good grasp of his identity and actions.

otherwise……

Based on his achievements in the dream, he had already become arrogant and domineering in his previous life.

Where else can I create tens of billions in box office and become a billionaire actor?

This drama is an assessment drama, so Peng Hui does not receive any salary for this drama.

Fortunately, after watching the finished film, Wang Cong was very knowledgeable and sealed a red envelope worth RMB 5,000.

Including the 100,000 yuan saved from the budget, the money in Peng Hui's hands officially exceeded 150,000 yuan.

to be honest……

If this money were kept in the previous life, it would really not be much.

If one hundred and fifty thousand people can get the script written by Peng Hui, then half of the people in the entertainment industry will laugh out of their dreams!

But in this life, he is just an ordinary newcomer.

With this money, it’s nothing.

Of course, the total budget on the company's side is 800,000.

After all, it was an action scene and cost hundreds of thousands more.

Otherwise, with Peng Hui's level, the cost can be reduced to less than 500,000 yuan.

After all, most of the actors in this drama are newcomers, and the only well-known actor, Liu Jinshui, still gave me a friendship price.

So the cost can be completely reduced.

In fact, when Dapeng was filming this movie, the cost reached 700,000. On the one hand, it was because he was the director for the first time and was not clear about some things, which resulted in a certain degree of waste of funds.

Secondly...

His is an original work, and he needs to explore every possibility. Fortunately, the filming is all digital now. If it were film, with Dapeng's character of pursuing details in everything, I'm afraid the cost of this drama would have exceeded 10 million!

Finally, and the most critical point, is the actor's salary.

Even for guest appearances, some celebrities' salaries are quite high.

For example, the empress who had already become famous because of Zhen Huan at that time, the friendship price was at least 200,000!

For example, Fourth Master’s friendship price is 100,000!

Plus other celebrities and artists...

Just the actors’ fees cost half a million!

Almost more than half of the total cost!

There is no way around such a huge paycheck.

The scenes in Feimi dramas are only that big, as long as the performance of the actors is still important.

It's easy to talk about other supporting roles, but some celebrities really can't save money.

Coupled with the friendly price offered by others, you have to be responsible for accommodation, travel expenses, transportation and horse expenses...

Anyway, everything has to be counted, and it’s not necessarily much less.

To be honest, it is not easy to control the cost within 700,000 yuan.

but……
