Chapter 169 Mei Fang’s monthly financial report

After receiving the video and camera sent by Mei Fang, Wan Chaoxiong only spent one night completing the video editing work. When he saw Wan Chaoxiong the next day, he looked exhausted.

"Hey... you won't stay up all night, right? I'll treat you to dinner another day."

"Editing a video should be a very simple thing, but Xiang Bingbing was yelling the whole time while filming, so it took me too long to eliminate the noise."

Wan Chaoxiong waved his hands and said, "There's no need to treat me to a meal. I'm a sociopath, but you must not treat Xiang Bingbing to a meal. She is guilty."

"Oh! Why are you talking about me like that! Chao Xiong is so abominable!"

When Xiang Bingbing heard Wan Chaoxiong's complaints from behind Mei Fang, she immediately said angrily, "Mei Fang performed so wonderfully on the stage, aren't I allowed to cheer him on and applaud him?"

"You are a photographer. How can you give a speech? Can you also call me by my full name? Who knows you very well."

"But it's more fun to call me Chaoxiong, Chaoxiong, super fierce, hahahaha."

Wan Chaoxiong was originally considered a tall man in the class, almost 1.8 meters tall, but he was still like a little brother in front of Xiang Bingbing. He kept getting slapped on the head by her and had no time to dodge, so he could only curse at the side:

"Damn Shenlongjia wild girl!"

Mei Fang was holding her chin and smiling at Wan Chaoxiong's defeat. Suddenly, she transferred her firepower to Bingbing. She put her hands on Mei Fang's shoulders and shook him "gently":

"Yuanyuan promised me a big meal until I'm full, but you can't break your promise... I may not have done very well this time, but I will definitely live up to your expectations next time!"

"I know, I know, cough, cough...please stop, stop, stop -"

Mei Fang only felt that she was playing a pirate ship.

"Do you still want a next time? Next time, Mei Fang should just come to me!" Wan Chaoxiong sarcastically made Xiang Bingbing angry.

"Oh, you still talk about it! See if I don't deal with you..."

Xiang Bingbing chased Wan Chaoxiong and "knocked" him all the way, while Mei Fang squeezed her battered shoulders and gave Wan Chaoxiong a determined look in return.

Thanks a lot, brother!

Mei Fang took the edited video sent to him by Wan Chaoxiong on the USB flash drive and took it home to watch on his computer. I have to say that Wan Chaoxiong's editing skills are indeed quite good. He is worthy of being the first-generation UP enthusiast at Station C.

Next time I will recommend Wan Chaoxiong’s videos.

Mei Fang uploaded Xia Yuan's video on Station C last time, but the shooting technique was average and no noise reduction was done. Although Xiaopai made a recommendation, it didn't make much waves, but the quality of this video of more than 5 minutes is...

Went up.

Mei Fang also showed the video to Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi, and both of them gave it a very satisfactory rating.

"This classmate in your class is really useful, can you recruit him to work for us?" Xia Yuan has been with Mei Fang for a long time, and his words have a bit of a street lamp temperament.

Operational publicity does require some video editing talents, and there are such talents among the temporary workers at Mei Fang’s C station, but it is difficult to hand over the video to them, after all, this will reveal their identity.

"There's no rush now. Just ask Wan Chaoxiong for help..."

"That's right, Al Fang, I told you before that I wanted to record these songs of ours."

Xia Yuan showed Mei Fang his achievements carefully: "I recently researched the cost of a recording studio and recording equipment. The recording studio costs 500 yuan a day, and it is far away from here; the recording equipment includes recording microphones, monitoring headphones, and recording equipment.

Sound card, reverb, and this harmonic equalizer... Although there are many things and it is troublesome, the cost can be controlled at around 4,000."

"Which room do you plan to record in, your and Youxi's room? Besides, Aunt Liang will be suspicious if these devices are placed at home."

Mei Fang thought about it, "Actually, the reason I used to buy a computer last time was already ridiculous. Aunt Liang probably didn't say anything because she felt reassured about us."

Lin Youxi interjected from the side, "It doesn't have to be recorded at home. It should be possible in school. Our activity classroom at Similu Studio and Teacher Chen Qi might also be able to help. Maybe the music classroom is

There are ready-made recording studios and recording equipment.”

"But it's a bit inconvenient to borrow it directly from the school..."

Xia Yuan murmured and took Mei Fang's arm, "I still want to have my own set of recording equipment. Youxi said it could be placed in the studio. I think it's okay. There aren't many people in the club building on weekends..."

"If you buy it, I will definitely buy it for you, but you have to figure out this set of recording equipment before buying it, right? I think you can go to the school to ask about it in the early stage. After you are familiar with how to use it, we will set up one in the classroom of the studio

No matter what you do, the recording place will never be better than the recording studio."

"Then I'll ask at school next week."

Xia Yuan said and leaned towards Mei Fang curiously, "By the way, how much money does our studio make now? I haven't heard much from you, A Fang... Youxi, do you know that I won't be the only one who doesn't?"

Do you know?"

Lin Youxi shook her head, "I don't know either, but I haven't asked much about it. I'm just a bit curious."

Lin Youxi himself has calculated the monthly bandwidth expenditure of station C. Their bandwidth has been continuously improving and is now close to the level of 20,000 per month.

In addition, Mei Fang also has to pay monthly salaries to those part-time outsourced C station employees. Lin Youxi has not asked about this expense before, and does not know how much it costs.

"Since you two are so curious, I can show you the bill... which is equivalent to the financial report of our studio. But you have to promise me that after seeing this income, you will never let it slip."

"No, no, no, whatever is good, it's all our hard-earned money."

Xia Yuan quickly waved her hand, "Let me take a look."

Mei Fang, who has a background in planning, likes to build EXCEL tables to manage his own accounts. After opening his encrypted work document, he recorded the simple income and expenditure of the last month in a table.

[Studio Monthly Financial Report]

"The Stupid Bird Flies First" +13452.3 US dollars, equivalent to the RMB exchange rate of 102237.48 yuan;

"Kingdom" (unit price 6 yuan) sold 1,203 units across all channels last month, with revenue +7,218 this month and cumulative sales of 7,221;

"Life Restart Simulator" (unit price 1 yuan) sold 3,401 units across all channels last month, with revenue +3,401 this month, and cumulative sales of 13,430 units;

"To the Moon" (unit price: 8 yuan) sold 701 copies last month, and this month's revenue share is +1,682.4, with cumulative sales of 4,312 units;

"Rainblood: Dead Town" (unit price: 5 yuan) sold 922 units last month, with revenue sharing this month of +1,383, and cumulative sales of 3,002 units;

Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi looked at the game's form and income ledger and were immediately shocked.

"How come "The Stupid Bird Flies First" is still making so much money? Oh my god! All of the following games are obviously much more fun than the Stupid Bird Flying First!"

"The following games are obviously much more fun, but sales have not been increasing."

"The domestic market environment is like this. Everyone doesn't have much money now. There are a lot of cracked versions on the Internet. Even if it costs 1 yuan, few people directly spend money to buy games."

Lin Youxi asked Mei Fangdao, "Are they like "The Bird Flies First", where it is easier to make money by using embedded advertising?"

"It's different. Players of stand-alone games attach great importance to immersive experience. If there are built-in ads, they will be scolded. "The Bird Flies First" is different. It is originally a short and fast game. The rhythm is to stop after death and insert ads.

It’s a good way to make money.”

"Indeed..." Xia Yuan nodded and said, "When I was in tears while playing "To the Moon", an advertisement suddenly popped up asking me to top up money, which really affected my experience."

Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi were not surprised to see Mei Fang's monthly income of nearly 120,000 yuan. After all, this was only pure income, and the following expenses were also very exaggerated——

This year, Mei Fang spent her own money to buy three kidney machines, three Aliens, and a SLR for three people. The total cost of these digital products is 65,000;

Website C’s bandwidth maintenance and various server costs accounted for 30,000.

Labor costs at Station C. Currently, Station C has a total of 20 outsourced part-time employees. Although they are part-time employees and their monthly salary is not much, Mei Fang also paid a total of nearly 50,000 yuan.

Moreover, Lin Youxi and Xia Yuan saw the names of three classmates in the expenditure column.

Yue Xinyi,-800;

Liu Xiaoyu,-600;

Peng Xue:-8000;

Liu Xiaoyu was a member that Xia Yuan recruited to help with music production. In addition to the previous incident with Bai Mei's family, she paid Liu Xiaoyu a salary of 600. This amount was paid in cash by Mei Fang to Xia Yuan;

As for Peng Xue's 8,000 fee, which was a one-time fee, Mei Fang had already told Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi that she wanted to learn bass. Of course, Xia Yuan had no brains to support her best friend's dream;

Because Peng Xue's purpose was to form a band with Xia Yuan, Mei Fang also regarded it as a business investment rather than a private loan.

Only the money from Yue Xinyi puzzled Lin Youxi:

"Are you paying Yue Xinyi every month now?"

"I just started posting it last month. I said hello to Yue Xinyi, but I forgot to sync with you."

Mei Fang explained, "You can see Yue Xinyi's activeness in Station C and in the work group. She will collect the opinions of many netizens, compile a list and send it to us. This is already a very professional website operation workflow.

, which is quite different from helping out, she deserves the salary."

"I didn't say it wasn't worth it." Lin Youxi shook her head, "It's just that you have to tell me if you pay Yue Xinyi a salary, so that I can trouble her to deal with more things. I was quite embarrassed before."

Yes, you will also be hung from the street lights.

Mei Fang thought to herself that everyone really acted like they were the boss, and their words were very nurturing.

"You paid wages to them all, but you didn't pay to your good friend Zhang Ming? You two have such a close relationship."

"Emotions are feelings, and interests are interests. Zhang Ming just did a planning project during the summer vacation, and his writing was quite average. I had already budgeted my salary when I asked him to drive the car, and now he has no time to help me. This situation is impossible.

Those who pay him wages should just go back and give him some lucky money and bonus during the Chinese New Year."

Mei Fang carried it very wide.

"So that's the case...then it's reasonable to say so."

After reading the bill, Xia Yuan sighed with emotion, "It seems that making money is really not easy. Everyone is so busy working that we all lost money last month... If I had known, I wouldn't have bought such an expensive mobile phone. By the way, Al Fang

Do you still have any savings? I have 70,000 to 80,000 yuan as New Year's money here, do you want to transfer it to you to deal with it?"
