Chapter 237: Everyone Has Their Own Opinion

Titanic 2 has been released? !

So fast?

Wasn't it filming in full swing a few days ago? It's already finished and released in one go after just a few days?

However, think about the war-damaged set of the Shelter Company. Everything is done to save costs. The script is only a few pages long, and the director doesn't look like a censor...

The special effects are poor, the script is short, and everything is done to save money. Isn't it just a random change after filming and released?

Anyway, it's not a theater release.

Yang Ruoqian sighed: "Let's release it, is there anything else?"

The operation girl hesitated for a moment and asked: "Mr. Yang, how much publicity do we need to do here?"

Generally speaking, such small matters can be discussed and resolved by the operation and publicity, and there is no need to report to Yang Ruoqian.

However, since it was the first time to deal with something related to the Shelter Company, out of caution, Weng Ziqin, who was in charge of operations, decided to ask Yang Ruoqian how to deal with it.

They will take full responsibility after the second time.

Without even thinking about it, Yang Ruoqian said directly: "Just promote it in a small range, and try to promote this work as a wonderful sequel to "Titanic". If possible, you can say it surpasses the original."

After all, this movie is full of gimmicks, and its profitability is also optimistic by most people. After careful consideration, Yang Ruoqian decided not to promote it too hard.

If too much money is spent on publicity and promotion, what if it has a positive effect?

If it is not long before the quarterly settlement, it will be fine. Yang Ruoqian can spend money suddenly and lose money first when the box office is not paying attention.

But now the third quarter has just begun. If you accidentally promote too much and make the movie a hit online, wouldn't it be digging a hole for yourself?

It is also a means of reverse publicity to brag as much as possible in the promotional content, flatter yourself, and force a 500,000 masterpiece to be a spiritual sequel of 500 million US dollars.

"Titanic 2" has a Douchi score of more than 3.0, which is not good for this audience!

The operation girl agreed without any objection: "Okay, Mr. Yang!"

The movie has been released on major platforms at this time. As a person who is responsible for docking, she couldn't have not seen the movie.

So she knows what this movie is like. Not to mention that it is a sequel to "Titanic", it has nothing to do with Titanic at all.

So... Mr. Yang's publicity seems to be shameless to gild himself and get attention, but in fact it is a real master-level operation.

Before "The Black Robe Inspection Team" was officially released, didn't many people say that this movie was a rubbish that was just getting attention?

How to get attention in a superb way without making people hate it...creating memes is the best way.

Since the release of "The Black Robe Inspection Team", many famous memes have been directly edited out and become enduring topics of discussion and emoticons.

As a result, the two leading actors and actresses have become popular artists, jumping from obscurity to at least the level of second-tier stars.

Shang Qianyu and her senior sister Wen Ruoxiu were busy participating in various activities after the play all day, and frequently appeared in various shots.

I believe Mr. Yang has the same attitude towards the new movie...

Before hanging up the phone, the operation girl said again in a encouraging tone: "Mr. Yang, don't worry, we will not drag the group down, and we will live and die with the group!"

After saying that, as if she felt a little ashamed, the operation girl hung up the phone in a hurry.

Yang Ruoqian on the other end: "???"

No, what do you want me to say to make you believe that the company is really prosperous and there is nothing wrong?

I'm really not whitewashing the peace!

Yang Ruoqian sighed heavily and put the phone on the landline.

Originally, what Yang Ruoqian wanted to do was to use super high welfare benefits, salary levels and strict management to constrain the work efficiency of employees.

Under long-term high pressure, the employees were forced to work less efficiently due to Yang Ruoqian's airtight offensives...

After all, people are lazy. When life is good, they can't help but want to indulge in the joy of slacking off.

Just as the results of a year's work were beginning to bear fruit, Shao Yiqi colluded with external enemies and spread rumors in the company, which directly aroused the fighting spirit of the employees.

The employees' thoughts of slacking off just had a little pitiful sign, but they were ruthlessly pinched out by a big hand.

Yang Ruoqian didn't even have time to formulate protective measures.

A year's hard work was ruined.

Yang Ruoqian didn't even have the idea of ​​refuting rumors on a large scale - no matter what he said, others would only believe what he wanted to believe.

Refuting rumors would make employees think more about things they shouldn't think about.

After trying to refute the rumors for Lin Cao yesterday but the refuting had the opposite effect, Yang Ruoqian immediately gave up this dangerous idea.

Instead of refuting rumors, it would be better to use a more cruel high welfare treatment plan to suppress employees who tried to work hard.

It can also increase some expenses.

At the same time, Yang Ruoqian received a reply from the person in charge of the copyright operation of "Wandering Blue Star".

"Mr. Yang, the initial offer from the publishing house is 300,000."

Yang Ruoqian looked at the number and was disappointed.

Why is it so cheap?

You can buy the film and television adaptation rights of such an excellent novel with just 300,000 yuan?

But after thinking about it for a while, Yang Ruoqian realized why the copyright fee was so cheap.

Just because the novel is good doesn't mean that the adapted movie will be a hit - the original novel can certainly bring some fans, but if the movie is not good enough and does not meet expectations, these fans attracted by the original novel will also burst out with the most powerful fighting power.

To put it simply, it is backfired.

The incident of "Magic City Fortress" is still vivid in people's minds. The previous victim Yuefu Group is still licking its wounds in the corner, so the copyright adaptation fee is naturally impossible to be too outrageous.

Unless the author's work has been successfully revised once, or the popularity of the work has reached a phenomenal level, otherwise the cost of hundreds of thousands of yuan will be the limit.

Although "Da Liu" has a good reputation now, after all, no work has been adapted into a film or television...

"No! You can't make excuses for yourself! There are many difficulties, but there are always more solutions than difficulties!"

Yang Ruoqian suddenly woke up and cheered up.

This quarter is the most difficult quarter. We must do our best and not miss the opportunity to squeeze every penny out of the company!

He sent a message to the operation girl: "Tell the publisher that we can't accept this price."

Seeing the message from Yang Ruoqian, the operation girl suddenly felt sad.

Sure enough, the group is really in big trouble.

Now even the copyright adaptation fee of 300,000 is too expensive... In the past, Mr. Yang would probably take it without blinking an eye.

In such a difficult time, his salary and benefits have not been reduced, and no colleagues have been laid off...

How much I can help Mr. Yang cut the price is how much precious funds I contribute to the group!

The operation girl calmed down and quickly sent a reply: "Then what is your psychological bottom line? We will help you negotiate with the publisher."

At this time, the operation girl was ready. Even if Mr. Yang cut the price in half, she would try her best to complete the task.

"Psychological bottom line? One million, we won't accept it if it's lower than this price."

"Okay... eh? What? We won't accept it if it's lower than one million?!"

What the hell?

Didn't we agree that the group's cash flow is facing huge pressure? Didn't we take all the money earned from "The Black Robe Inspection Team" to find lawyers because of the targeting of the Yue Mansion?

Why is there another round of reverse bargaining now?

Yang Ruoqian, who racked his brains to spend the money, continued typing: "First of all, we acquired the copyright for film and television adaptation, not the complete copyright of this book."

"That is to say, if some force majeure factors appear later, there may be some unnecessary disputes... The less money you give, the fewer clauses in the contract that are favorable to us will be. And the more money you give, the more clauses in the contract that are favorable to us will be."

"We can't let the immediate interests lead to more troubles in the future, understand? So the copyright fee must be paid enough, and all possible risks in the future must be nipped in the bud."

Yang Ruoqian typed a lot of words on the keyboard and generously shared his twisted logic with the operation girl.

As for what specific "force majeure factors" may appear and what risks will arise in the future, Yang Ruoqian has not yet compiled them.

The content of the contract is even more nonsense... Money can be reversed bargained, so can't the content of the contract be reversed bargained?

Paying more money to sign a more unequal contract is a basic operation for the experienced Mr. Yang.

Anyway, he is the boss, so there is no need to say so much, just wait for the employees to guess the rest.

Don’t you all like to imagine?

Then imagine it yourself.

Sure enough, the operation girl suddenly had an epiphany: "So that's it... Mr. Yang, I understand! I just didn't think it through!"

Mr. Yang is Mr. Yang, and he thinks about problems so comprehensively!

Even if the group is so stretched, he can calmly see what will happen in the future for a long time and weigh the pros and cons.

Instead of saving some necessary expenses in the short term, which will lead to a big mess later, and ultimately lose more than the gain.

The highest decision maker is indeed farsighted...

Yang Ruoqian was relieved to see that his employees were successfully fooled by him, and cut off the chat interface to take a look at the unread messages just sent.

In a trance, Yang Ruoqian felt that his day was really fulfilling.

Mr. Yang, who often slacked off and played games in the office last quarter, had to struggle again this month to make a living.

In just one day, he had a long talk with the person in charge of the operation of the shelter company and the operation of the copyright of "Wandering Blue Star".

Now it's the third one, and there is no free time in between, and he doesn't even have a breath.

As expected, the person who sent the message was Cheng Fei.

Before, Yang Ruoqian asked her to help contact someone to form a crew belonging to Kuiguang Group to avoid the income generated by the transfer of copyright.

Now it seems that the contact has been made...

Cheng Fei: "Mr. Yang met with my brother? This is his personality, don't be surprised."

Yang Ruoqian thought of the scene where Cheng Fang's mouth was full of rumors, and his scalp tingled, and he quickly ended this uncomfortable topic.

Now when he saw the word "Cheng", he couldn't help but recall the past when he was crazy about money stuffed by the brother and sister. It was too painful.

"Ahaha... That's a small matter. Is there any progress in the crew that I asked Mr. Cheng to contact last time?"

Cheng Fei replied quickly: "I have contacted them for you. It is said that many directors are very enthusiastic to work under you. By the way, I heard from the grapevine that your company has a little problem that is not worth mentioning. Is there anything you can help with?"

Can you please not bring this up...

Seeing that the topic he had finally changed was dragged back, Yang Ruoqian pinched his forehead.

What gossip?

That's a rumor made up by your brother!

"Haha, just like Mr. Cheng said, it's just some minor problems. You don't need to mobilize a large force. I can solve it myself. Well, what is the specific staffing of the crew?"

Cheng Fei continued to reply: "I wanted to let An Zhou go directly to your place, but he said he was not good at shooting such hardcore science fiction, so he didn't come. I contacted several other directors for you, and they are all quite capable... By the way, I remind you that Yuefu is not easy to get along with, so you must be fully prepared."

Don't say it...

After chatting for a few sentences, Yang Ruoqian finally realized that Cheng Fei's attention was not on the arrangement of the director candidate.

She came just for the Yuefu's mess.

What director of the director department is just an excuse to open the topic.

With this level of concern, it is estimated that Chengyu Group has already started to deploy actions, right?

Shao Yiqi's side is probably not much behind, and perhaps Gaoyao Group is also taking action.

How can Yuefu Group be targeted by two large groups together?

What virtue and ability does Kuiguang Group have to be served by two large groups together...

I dare not imagine how big the scene will be at that time.

But fortunately... the lawsuit is not big, no matter how big the scene is, it is difficult to bring much substantial benefits to Kuiguang Group.

As for fame and the various impacts that this matter itself will bring that cannot be measured by money... I can only say that we can take it one step at a time.

Yang Ruoqian couldn't help but sigh: "Mr. Cheng...why don't you tell me clearly, what did you do over there?"

Cheng Fei: "It's just some trivial things, not worth mentioning. Mr. Yang, you can rest assured to do your own thing. Helping you is my decision, and you don't owe me a favor."

Seemingly feeling that she said too much about things that shouldn't be said, Cheng Fei finally took the initiative to end this sad topic.

She continued typing: "Then, I'll send you a list of directors, and tell me which one you think is more suitable?" (End of this chapter)
