The biggest financial problem of the project was solved, and "Love Apartment" truly achieved a profit-making situation before filming even started.
The next step is to communicate with the three major platforms to see who has the higher final bid.
But Lin Mu still prefers Station P in his heart.
As I said before, maintaining a balance among the three parties is what is most beneficial to him, and in addition, the current bid from Station P is the highest.
Moreover, the atmosphere of Station P is better than that of the other two software.
After all, Douyin and Miaoshou are short videos, and short plots of five to ten minutes are just right for watching on mobile phones.
A traditional TV series like "Love Apartment", which lasts for twenty minutes per episode, is more suitable to be watched on a website with a larger broadcast medium.
The only question now is whether Station P can bear the traffic brought by "Love Apartment".
Station P and Station B are similar in nature. They are both barrage websites where young people make up the majority.
But except for the second dimension, the purchasing power of Station B is very... lacking in other aspects.
The one with the strongest purchasing power is the relatively inconspicuous master among the three major platforms.
If the purchasing power of station P is the same as that of station B, then Lin Mu will have no choice but to choose Miaoshou in the end.
After Lin Mu checked the information, he discovered that station P and station B were fundamentally different.
It was originally a reorganization of two video websites, and its background is still the traditional membership-based on-demand service.
Later, after reorganization, the UP main plan was opened. Although the paid on-demand segment fell silent due to the impact of short videos, the original business system still exists.
Pay on demand?
Do you want to earn additional membership fees from viewers?
Lin Mu's hand touching his chin finally stopped.
No more money can be made.
If you make so much money from this project, you will be punished by God. If this stall goes down further, you may not be able to control it anymore.
If you negotiate the current matters and maintain this situation, it will be considered a victory.
After deciding on the final partner, Lin Mu immediately made an appointment with Chen Qiao.
Naturally, it was impossible to give the money to Lin Mu immediately.
Even though Station P is hungry for talents, it’s not like Lin Mu just gives him free money after taking the script.
Lin Mu will not be given the first payment until at least the first five episodes have been filmed and reviewed by Station P.
Lin Mu naturally understood the other party's concerns. After signing the phased contract, Lin Mu happily left.
The next step was to sign a marketing contract with Lin Wenlei again.
Yunhai Group entrusted Makino Media to conduct a planning and marketing for the love apartment property.
As for the marketing method, it is decided by Makino Media.
During this period, Lin Wenlei revealed his thoughts on the crew.
"Brother, is there anything else our crew lacks?"
Lin Mu looked at Lin Wenlei's appearance and remembered who this guy was.
Isn't this the same person who I was scolding on the phone last time?
The last time I scolded him was because he wanted to change his song.
This time, he invested directly in him. What could Lin Mu do?
That must be a big boss who serves the sponsor well!
What a joke, this is 100 million!
He can be the male lead!
What's wrong with the other party stuffing someone in!
What happened to stuffing someone!
Lin Mu immediately agreed: "No problem! Brother, how do you want to play!"
Lin Wenlei thought for a moment: "If there is a theme song, I have a recommended candidate. You can see if it can be used."
Lin Mu was a little surprised: "That's it?"
Lin Wenlei smiled and said: "Otherwise? Can you still let me stuff people in?"
"It's okay if you want to be a starring role!"
Lin Mu's cheerful agreement made Lin Wenlei dumbfounded.
But he still reacted, "No, no, our project still needs to make money. I don't know much about your industry. Making money is more important."
Lin Mu shook his head: "Brother, you don't understand. In our industry, it's not easy to become famous, but it's easy to leave the country."
"If you are worried about delaying the plot, then add some insignificant supporting characters to make it more enjoyable."
After hearing what Lin Mu said, Lin Wenlei's eyes suddenly lit up: "Brother! It's a pleasure to work with you!" Then he vented his bitterness to Lin Mu: "You don't know, last time I invested in Xue Duo's movie, I Even if you want to provide a theme song!”
"That Xue Duo is too ignorant." Lin Mu agreed.
That's what Lin Mu said, and that's what he really thought.
Xue Duo may be a good actor, but she is definitely not a good project manager.
It is right to be serious and responsible, but you must also consider the actual situation.
What, "That Summer" was not wholly produced by Lin Wenlei?
That's okay.
Just when the two of them chatted more and more, and they wanted to start another project on the spot, Xue Duo finally couldn't listen anymore.
Knocked on the table: "Ahem, I'm still here."
Lin Wenlei showed a rare hint of embarrassment on his face, almost forgetting that he was in Xue Duo's studio.
"Then let's do this for now. When the time comes, we will have a launch ceremony for the TV series, and I will bring people there to support it."
Lin Wenlei slipped away.
Lin Mu looked at Xue Duo and smiled awkwardly.
Even though Lin Mu was so thick-skinned, he blushed a little.
Xue Duo snorted: "Your relationship with Lin Wenlei heated up very quickly."
Lin Mu smiled awkwardly: "I can't help myself. I can't help myself."
"Have you never thought that the number of views will not be high by then?" Xue Duo looked at Lin Mu.
Lin Mu smiled confidently: "There is no such situation."
"Okay, come over here and record "Ten Years" first. My movie has been delayed for a long time."
…
After returning from Xue Duo's studio, Lin Mu spread out on the sofa in the office and let out a long breath.
The matter is settled.
Once the renovation of Yuncheng Community is completed, filming of "Love Apartment" can officially begin.
It’s this money…
It’s a bit difficult to spend.
The total cost was only 15 million, but now it has been given 100 million.
Lin Mu couldn't even imagine where he could spend so much money!
Do you want to increase wages for Ke Yuan and others?
Forget it, if they don't pay themselves, they are just being kind.
Upgrade your equipment?
No, the equipment is all rented, and the upgrades are also rented. How much money can that cost?
It was difficult. It was the first time that Lin Mu knew how difficult it was to spend money.
This is only Lin Wenlei’s 100 million.
Luo Mo still has a lot of cooperation issues that have not yet been negotiated!
If it's all discussed.
Even if it were based on Wang Dachui's quotation at that time, it would be tens of millions more at least.
This much money can only be spent on "Love Apartment".
Where are these flowers?
As long as staff salaries remain unchanged, even the venue does not require funding.
The only thing left is to improve the texture and special effects.
Lin Mu called Mei Renquan over, and the two of them held a day-long meeting with the entire photography team, and finally decided to play a big game!
Isn't "Love Apartment" originally a Chinese-language American drama?
Then I will shoot according to the standards of American dramas!
I don’t believe it, I’m so busy burning money, I can’t even spend this 100 million!
