I'm serious about making money

"Secret, get up quickly, Jiang Yu is shooting a new film again."

In the dormitory, Yuan Yiyi sat in front of the computer desk, with her long legs crossed, and greeted the big secretary on the upper bunk.

"What did he shoot again?" Yang Mi rubbed his eyes and got off the bed.

Last night, she played games with Yuan Yiyi online and didn't sleep until early in the morning. When she woke up, it was already noon.

"It's a love micro-movie that heals countless people in the middle of the night. It's touching."

"He's making horror movies again?"

Now when the word "cure" is mentioned, Mi Yang's first reaction is horror movies.

Yuan Yiyi said: "It's really a romance movie. Didn't you realize that he didn't even call us?"

Speaking of it, Yuan Yiyi is quite resentful, she has already discovered that with Jiang Yu, she is almost a tool person, and she is asked to shoot horror movies and funny commercials.

He would only keep his girlfriend for a healing romance film like "The Lover at the Table".

It's simply forgetting friends!

"Hey, it smells so jealous," Mi Yang walked behind her and joked with a smile.

"Hey, you little bitch, can't you watch it?"

"Look, I want to see how Liu Sisi is better than Yiyi."

"Bah," Yuan Yiyi spat at her, didn't dare to say any more, and directly opened Youku.com.

The quality of the micro-movie "Lovers at the Table" is really good. On the day of its launch, the number of views exceeded one million, catching up with "Snow Mountain" and "The Beauty and the Ugly Man".

Youku also worked hard to promote "The Lovers at the Table", not only putting it on the top of the homepage, but also specially organized a love-themed plan around "The Lovers at the Table".

Encourage netizens to upload videos and share their love stories, and finally select ten excellent videos and reward them with an exquisite gift.

Yuan Yiyi curled her lips, this kind of activity was too unfriendly to a single dog like her.

So she chose to ignore it directly, and clicked to enter the play page of "The Lover at the Table", but a prompt box popped up.

"Please log in to watch!"

"Huh? Do I have to register an account to watch it now?"

"I have an account, log in to mine." Yang Mi bent down and reached for the keyboard, and the two murder weapons were directly pressed on Yuan Yiyi's shoulders.

"Oh, you hit me," Yuan Yiyi pushed her hard, and Yang Mi said while entering the password: "Mine is too big, why don't I use your shoulder to put it on?"

"Big breasts are amazing?" Yuan Yiyi was very annoyed.

"That's right, it's amazing, haven't you heard of it, love is so powerful, it's not as good as chest," Yang Mi raised his eyebrows, very proud.

"Bah," Yuan Yiyi almost vomited blood in anger, "Where did you learn all this?"

"Jiang Yu told me, all right," Yang Mi stood up and released the restraint on Yuan Yiyi.

Yuan Yiyi endured her doubts and clicked play, but a 30-second advertisement popped up.

"If a man wants to have a good kidney, he must drink Kidney Treasure!"

"Good natural sb cream, you can see the matte finish, you can't guess the age, you deserve it..."

"Youku is going too far now, you have to log in first, and then you have to watch advertisements," Yuan Yiyi dissatisfied.

Yang Mi explained: "This film is invested by others, and the cost will not be recovered without advertising."

The last time she was filming "The Ghost in the Snow Mountain", she chatted with Jiang Yu, and learned from Jiang Yu that he had cooperated with Youku.

Big Secret has always been very interested in this kind of business operation, so he asked a few more questions.

That's when she realized that Youku is actually equivalent to an online TV station, and if it wants to make a profit, it ultimately depends on advertising.

This is the time when the TV station is at its peak, and a 30-second commercial on CCTV’s prime time can sell hundreds of millions.

Youku naturally cannot achieve this kind of influence. If you want to attract advertisers to place advertisements, you must come up with phenomenal films, which is why they are willing to spend money on Jiang Yu.

Waiting for the commercial break, Yuan Yiyi couldn't help but look up and glance at her chest, "You and Jiang Yu are very close, how does he know you have four taels?"

"Fuck, I'm more than four taels, okay, at least four catties," Yang Mi gave her a look, "Two chests and four taels is a line in a human script, you uneducated, metaphor, analogy, do you understand?"

"What a broken metaphor."

"Didn't he send you the script? I think he's trying to find an actor."

Yuan Yiyi turned around silently, well, she was left behind again.

At this time, the advertisement finally finished playing, and four large characters popped up on the screen: Produced by Youku.

Below is a line of small print, director: Jiang Yu.

Feature film begins.

Yuan Yiyi didn't care much about watching the movie anymore, she turned her head and said, "What kind of script is Jiang Yu making?"

Yang Mi stared at the screen, and casually said: "It's a healing love movie, but this time he plans to go to theaters... Hey, isn't this You Benchang, he invited Ji Gong out."

"He's really amazing," Yuan Yiyi couldn't help asking, "Did he ask you to be the heroine?"

"Yeah, but I haven't decided whether to accept it or not," Yang Mi complained, "My company asked me to play Qingwen, and Jiang Yu asked me to make a movie. Both movies are filmed during the summer vacation. It's time to hit the schedule, oh, it's so annoying."

He said it was annoying, but he couldn't hide the pride on his face.

Yuan Yiyi gave her a faint look, this woman is going too far.

She was clearly showing off!

But the resentment was resentment, and Yuan Yiyi had to admit that Mi Yang had already left her far behind.

She was still playing a role in the crew, and she hadn't even played a decent role. Mi Yang had already received a soft hand when she took on the role, and it was "Dream of Red Mansions" and she was making a movie.

Jiang Yu went even further and became the director directly.

One must know that he is only in his junior year, and he has not even graduated from university, so he is already thinking about making movies by himself.

If it were someone else, Yuan Yiyi would definitely think that the other party was whimsical, but what Jiang Yu did seemed so logical.

Alas, people are more popular than people.

Everyone obviously went to the same university, why is he so handsome?

……

There is cool headquarters.

Gu Yongjian waited at the entrance of the data center, walking up and down anxiously. He, who has always been calm, couldn't help becoming a little nervous at this moment.

"What's wrong with Mr. Gu? Why did you come to our place?"

"Oh, I guess it's just to look at the data. Isn't "The Lover at the Table" launched for a week?"

"That film is really interesting, but it's too short."

"Hey, who's to say no, I heard that Mr. Gu attaches great importance to this film, so he pointed to it to overtake Sweet Potato."

"I think Xuan, the last time "Snow Mountain Ghost" was so popular, didn't it fail to surpass Sweet Potato..."

Today, the two largest video sites in China are Sweet Potato and Youku.

Sweet potato was established earlier than Youku. With its first-mover advantage, it has attracted a large number of users. Among video sites, Youku can only be regarded as a catcher of Sweet potato.

Last year, with Jiang Yu's "Snow Mountain Ghost", the number of visits of Youku briefly surpassed that of Sweet Potato, but soon fell back.

The reason is very simple. After the other party found out that "Snow Mountain Ghost" was a big hit, they made a copy of it intact and put it on their website.

At this time, there is no such thing as copyright in the Tianchao Internet. Even if Gu Yongjian threatened to sue the other party, it was just a joke.

This time "Table Lover" is probably the same. Whether it can kill Sweet Potato in one fell swoop and become the number one video website in China, no one can say.

"Mr. Zhu is here... Shhh..."

A few employees were whispering, and saw Zhu Yang striding out of the data center, and quickly sat upright, pretending that he was busy.

"Has the data come out?" Seeing Zhu Yang coming out, Gu Yongjian rushed to ask.

"It's out," Zhu Yang opened the report in his hand, and when he was about to report, Gu Yongjian snatched it away.

Zhu Yang smiled helplessly, Mr. Gu's concern is messed up.

How did he know that "Lover at the Table" is really important to Youku now.

Its data will directly determine Youku's subsequent financing and strategic development!

If the statistics of "The Lover at the Table" are mediocre, then Youku can only find another way.

But if "The Lover at the Table" succeeds, it proves that the pgc can run smoothly, and Gu Yongjian will bet on pgc with all his strength!

Gu Yongjian couldn't wait any longer, so he grabbed the report and read it by himself.

As of 12 o'clock last night, "The Lovers at the Table" was launched for a week. Under Youku's full promotion, the number of views directly exceeded 800 million, temporarily ranking second among all Youku's videos.

The first is "Snow Mountain Ghost".

However, when "Snow Mountain Ghost" was launched, they had no experience and preparation, and the value of "Snow Mountain Ghost" had not been fully tapped.

This time "Table Fighting Lovers" is online, Youku can be said to be fully prepared, and the data brought by "Table Fighting Lovers" did not disappoint them.

During the seven days since the launch of "The Lover at the Table", the average number of visits to Youku's website has directly increased by 25%, overtaking Sweet Potato in one fell swoop!

After absorbing the lesson of "Snow Mountain Ghost" being pirated by sweet potatoes, on the third day after the launch of "Table Fighting Lover", after word of mouth gradually fermented, they changed "Table Fighting Lover" to play after logging in, the purpose is to retain these attracted users.

And this simple change directly brought hundreds of thousands of new registrations to Youku!

Although it is not ruled out that many of them are cool old users who are too lazy to register for an account because of the trouble, the fact that "Table Fighting Lovers" can attract these people to register has already proved its value.

For these Internet companies, the number of users is the lifeline, because with users, they can only raise funds to get money.

Compared with the hundreds of thousands of new users, the millions of advertising impressions are trivial.

Zhu Yang looked at Gu Yongjian with a relaxed face. In his opinion, this statistic was so good that it exploded.

What he is most curious about now is, what will the always calm Mr. Gu react when he sees this data?

Did he just blurt out "Fuck"?

Or laugh out loud?

Or happy to give him a bear hug?

The result is neither.

5 minute later.

Gu Yongjian put away the report and sighed slightly.

Zhu Yang never dreamed that Gu Yongjian would react like this.

He asked nervously, "Why, isn't this data good?"

"That's good, but I regret it."

"Regret what?"

Gu Yongjian said leisurely: "I regret that I didn't invest more money in Jiang Yu. If he can make a few more micro-movies like "Lovers at the Table", our number of users will definitely double!"

Zhu Yang couldn't help reminding: "Are we relying too much on Jiang Yu? Don't forget, we can invite him, and sweet potato can also..."

He had heard about Jiang Yu filming advertisements for Jialebao and Zhang Laoji at the same time. This kind of incident of eating at home and eating at home, wouldn't it happen again?

Gu Yongjian's face changed, "Go and invite Jiang Yu immediately, no, I will go to see him in person, and I must not let Sweet Potato poach him away!"

He has already discovered that popular content is the life of a video website.

As long as there is a popular video, the popularity of the entire website will rise gradually, and that feeling is as exciting as taking an aphrodisiac.

This feeling of being at the center of an internet conversation...

It's really addictive!

And Jiang Yu is the man who can continuously produce aphrodisiacs!
