Chapter 272 Harvest (1) 4000 words, I caught a cold yesterday
Fu Feng is full of expectations for the ‘Mengmeng Orchard Podcaster’ and Cao Shujie who are about to meet.
He wanted to have a good chat with the other party to hear their understanding of original videos and their views on the future of original videos.
In Fu Feng's opinion, someone who can continuously make popular videos must have a good understanding of original videos.
So what are his plans for original videos in the future?
Fu Feng was very curious.
"Xiao Du, according to you, they should be very busy tomorrow and may not have time to receive us. You call them now and ask, and we will visit them today." Fu Feng said to Du Wenwu.
You can also go there tomorrow to see how lively the scene is and see how online traffic is diverted offline.
But if you want to have a good chat with the other party tomorrow about their views on the original video, it will be impossible.
By then, people will be really busy and have to take care of thousands of people, so how can they have time to take care of them?
Zhu Wenwu nodded: "Editor-in-Chief, let me give Mr. Cao a call."
"Okay!" Fu Feng nodded.
Du Wenwu dialed Cao Shujie's number, and not long after, he heard Cao Shujie's voice coming from the other side of the phone.
"Editor Du, why did you remember to call me?" Cao Shujie was surprised when he saw Du Wenwu's call.
Du Wenwu felt a little embarrassed when he was asked, but he still told the truth: "Mr. Cao, I'm really sorry, I'm here to bother you again this time."
"Editor Du, are you here?" Cao Shujie was very happy.
Du Wenwu said "hmm" and said, "I just arrived, Mr. Cao, is it convenient for you now?"
He said: "I came here with my editor-in-chief Mr. Fu Feng this time. If it is convenient for you today, we will visit you later."
"After I told my editor-in-chief about some of the issues Mr. Cao mentioned last time about original videos, he was very interested and thought that he must come and visit in person to talk to you about original videos in person."
"No problem, where are you?"
"Did you just get off the train in the city? Then I'll pick you up."
"No, no, no, Mr. Cao, we have already arrived at Qingshi Town. We just finished checking in and we will take a taxi there now," Du Wenwu said.
Perhaps because of the large flow of people during the Qingming Festival holiday, the number of people making a living by taxi in Qingshi Town has increased much more than before.
Finding a car is much easier now than before.
Hearing what Du Wenwu said, Cao Shujie nodded: "That's okay. I'll go down the mountain and wait for you now."
More than 20 minutes later, a motorized tricycle with a shed stopped at the intersection at the north end of Caojiazhuang.
Fu Feng and Du Wenwu got off the tricycle carrying large and small bags. Du Wenwu handed over 5 yuan and then habitually gave the tricycle owner an invoice.
As soon as he finished speaking, he realized, where did he get the invoice for a tricycle like this?
But the fact surprised him. They really had it. It was just a fixed-amount invoice with the word "五元" written in big letters on it, and it was stamped with the official seal.
Du Wenwu was stunned when he received the fixed-amount invoice. He looked carefully and saw that 'Qingshi Town Lianhua Transportation Co., Ltd.' was engraved on the official seal.
"Good guy, is this so formal?" Du Wenwu couldn't help complaining.
Fu Feng didn't find it strange. He asked, "Where should we go?"
After getting off the car, he could see that this was a very ordinary mountain village.
It can be seen from the overall architecture that it cannot be said to be poor, but it cannot be said to be rich either.
However, there are excellent ones everywhere. For example, there is a two-story building in the east. Just looking at the decoration outside, you can tell that a lot of money was spent on it.
He was still guessing, this must be the richest person in Caojiazhuang, right?
Could it be that that is Mr. Cao’s house?
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Du Wenwu say to him: "Editor-in-Chief, that two-story building is Mr. Cao's home."
"Oh, I said so!" Fu Feng's guess was confirmed.
"Then let's go there."
The two of them had just taken a few steps carrying their things when Cao Shujie walked over to Du Wenwu and the others from the door.
From a distance, Cao Shujie waved and said hello: "Editor Du, when I heard the noise just now, I guessed that it was you guys coming over. It's true!"
Seeing Cao Shujie's enthusiastic look, Du Wenwu and Fu Feng relaxed their anxious hearts.
"Mr. Cao, I'm sorry to bother you again." Du Wenwu said very politely.
Cao Shujie waved his hand: "It's okay, come here, it's not too late for me to be happy!"
His orchard was able to attract so many tourists during the Qingming Festival holiday. To put it bluntly, his wife's video was promoted well on Youku and attracted many people to come and play.
This month, the videos previously uploaded by his wife have continued to be promoted. Some single videos now have more than 8 million views, and even the two videos just uploaded have more than 3 million views, and every time the data is refreshed, the data increases.
Very gratifying.
This also brings many potential customers to their orchard. Speaking of which, Cao Shujie approves of Youku.
In this way, his wife not only earns Youku’s traffic money and advertising share, but their orchard also earns a customer base from online to offline.
Cao Shujie also thought that when Youku comes out with a membership VIP system, he will definitely buy a three-year super membership.
He said: "Editor Du, is this Mr. Fu you are talking about?"
Du Wenwu nodded and introduced Fu Feng to Cao Shujie again.
"Mr. Fu, welcome!" Cao Shujie took the initiative to reach out to Fu Feng and shake hands with him.
"Mr. Cao, it's too disturbing." Fu Feng said in a very apologetic tone.
Cao Shujie waved his hand and said, "It's okay. You are too polite. If you want to come over and play, just say it. Come on, let's go home and have a glass of water first."
Seeing that the two of them had brought so many things, Cao Shujie even warned them that if they were so polite in the future, they would not be allowed to come.
At the same time, he reached out and helped them take part of it.
"Mr. Fu, Editor Du, when did you arrive?" Cao Shujie was quite curious.
Taking the two of them into the yard, Daha and the others saw two strangers coming in, and they called out at that moment.
"Daha, this is my friend, shut up!" Cao Shujie said.
As soon as he finished speaking, the four big dogs headed by Daha stopped barking.
However, the five little native dogs kept barking.
Fu Feng was particularly envious when he saw that Cao Shujie had so many dogs at home.
He also wants to raise one, but it's really not possible in the city and there are many inconveniences.
The first point is that his house in Beijing is rented. When he rented the house, the landlord made it clear that he would not allow pets in the room.
Although Fu Feng is the editor-in-chief of Youku's original video team, compared with the housing prices in Beijing, he still cannot afford to buy a house with his small salary.
Unless he pulls up the original video division, but with the current scale and volume, it is still far from enough.
For his own consideration, Fu Feng also wanted to make some achievements as soon as possible, so he did not hesitate to travel more than 800 kilometers to visit Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin, just to hear their opinions and thoughts on this matter.
Cheng Xiaolin heard something moving in the yard and came out to greet it.
When she saw Du Wenwu, she smiled and shouted: "Editor Du, why didn't you tell me in advance when you came?"
"Sister Cheng, I came here in a bit of a hurry this time."
He then introduced Fu Feng again.
Although he already knew that the host of the Mengmeng Orchard account was a woman, Fu Feng was still surprised to see Cheng Xiaolin so young.
"Editor-in-Chief Fu, please come in quickly!" Cheng Xiaolin didn't expect her editor's superior to come.
After inviting the two of them to sit down in the room, Cheng Xiaolin went to make tea, took the teapot and cups and put them on the coffee table, and poured tea for her grandfather, Du Wenwu, Fu Feng and her husband respectively.
Fu Feng saw an old man at home and said hello to Cao Zhenghu politely.
"You can just talk, I'll just sit here." Cao Zhenghu said.
Cheng Xiaolin went to the kitchen to prepare the dishes, but Fu Feng came here mainly to ask Cheng Xiaolin about the original video.
As soon as he mentioned the purpose of his visit, Cao Shujie said: "Honey, don't go cooking. I'll tell Boss Wang and ask them to bring some food from the hotel."
"Isn't the restaurant over there cleaning up? If not, it's okay to ask them to cook a few dishes and bring them over to try." Cheng Xiaolin said.
Cao Shujie nodded: "Don't worry about it."
After he called Wang Leigang, he explained the whole story.
Hearing Cao Shujie say that he had guests at home, Wang Leigang immediately arranged for someone to cook 10 dishes at the restaurant, which could be regarded as practicing his skills in advance.
Then he cut the freshly braised beef onto a full plate, and Wang Leigang arranged for someone to deliver it to Cao Shujie.
Cao Shujie's home.
The couple are currently discussing the original video with Fu Feng and Du Wenwu.
Mengmeng was playing nearby and didn't come to disturb their conversation.
"Take for example the two videos I just uploaded a few days ago. I didn't expect them to become so popular at first," Cheng Xiaolin said.
This is what is in her heart.
She didn't have high expectations for those two videos, but she uploaded and saved them as a video note of their trip!
But who would have thought that two videos they thought were ordinary would become so popular.
What do they do?
Hearing what Cheng Xiaolin said, Fu Feng and Du Wenwu had almost the same judgment, but no one expected that the gap between their prediction and the final result would be so big.
Cao Shujie said from the side: "I think the reason why these two videos are so popular is that there are traces to follow."
"Mr. Cao, what do you say?" Fu Feng looked at Cao Shujie, he was very curious.
Always wanted to find the reason.
After Cao Shujie pondered for a moment, he said: "First of all, as for original videos, as long as they are not drama series or short films, I think short videos are more authentic."
"Like the last two videos my wife uploaded, they just highlight the reality!"
"Also, this kind of short video pays more attention to the flavor of life." Cao Shujie said: "Including the 10 videos my wife uploaded before, have you noticed that these videos are all shot around 'life'."
"Videos like this are more down-to-earth and may be more popular." Cao Shujie thought for a while and then said.
Fu Feng nodded while listening. Cao Shujie's words gave him a feeling of 'enlightenment', but he just felt that there was still something missing.
Cheng Xiaolin was also thinking carefully about what her husband said.
She thinks it makes sense!
But she is also a little strange. She still remembers that when her husband first explained to her about analyzing original videos, he also told her that this thing needs a good 'gimmick'. Without this key core, everyone who sees these videos will be confused.
Too lazy to click the mouse to open it.
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard her husband continue: "In addition to these video content requirements, I think a good original video also needs a better copywriting, that is, a plot introduction!"
"It's best to summarize it in a few simple sentences. You must not write it casually. This thing will affect the performance of a video in all aspects." Cao Shujie said seriously.
Cheng Xiaolin nodded subconsciously. What she was thinking just now was the same thing as what her husband was talking about now.
And she also thinks this is very important!
After her husband finished speaking, Cheng Xiaolin continued and added a few words.
At this time, Wang Leigang's shout came from outside.
"Boss Cao, I've personally delivered the food to you. How do you like it while it's still hot?" Wang Leigang shouted in the yard.
Cao Shujie came to the yard and saw Wang Leigang and a fat man in white clothes standing in the yard. After seeing Cao Shujie, the fat man in white clothes took the food box he was carrying into the house.
10 dishes are placed on the table one by one.
The combination of meat and vegetables and soup dishes is very balanced.
In addition, the dishes are very beautiful, and everyone who sees them will feel very appetizing.
"Boss Wang, let's have a drink together," Cao Shujie called to him.
But Wang Leigang waved his hand: "No, I have to go back and see what is missing. Some side dishes need to be processed in advance today, and there will be no time to get them tomorrow!"
"Then I won't keep you." Cao Shujie was not polite to Wang Leigang either.
Not to mention Wang Leigang, he is also very busy.
I'll go up the mountain early tomorrow morning and get ready in the orchard, waiting to welcome the guests.
On this day, Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin chatted with Fu Feng and Du Wenwu for a long time.
Mengmeng had enough fun by herself and came to find her mother. When she finally had to sleep in her mother's arms, Fu Feng and Du Wenwu saw it and consciously said goodbye.
"Mr. Fu, brother Xiao Du, you can stay at my house tonight." Cao Shujie still wanted to persuade them to stay.
But Fu Feng said: "No need, we have booked a room in a hotel in the town, and our luggage is also stored in the hotel."
Du Wenwu also nodded, and they repeatedly expressed that they wanted to go back to the hotel in the town, so Cao Shujie didn't force it anymore.
He and his wife both drank some wine, and finally Cao Shujie found a car from the village to take Fu Feng and Du Wenwu to the town.
Let's say that the two of them were still discussing what Cao Shujie said on the way to Qingshi Town. They felt that what Cao Shujie said was true.
"Xiao Du, why do I think this Mr. Cao knows more about videos than the 'Mengmeng Orchard Broadcaster'?" Fu Feng was a little confused.
It was very hot yesterday, so I turned on the air conditioner, and then all kinds of problems came. The old tree's body is really fragile.
