Chapter 417 Open Cooperation

Zhang Hehuan already knew his offer and smiled and said, "Now Qiyi and Youku have already offered 20 million."

Liu Chonghao said: "Their 20 million is the buyout price. We can adopt a cooperation approach. 15 million is the exclusive online broadcast right. In addition, I can share the share of you. Our new movie will have three months of paid on-demand broadcast, and the VIP member on-demand broadcast fee is five yuan. This means that if we have 20 million paid on-demand broadcast, the income in this regard will be 100 million, and I can share it with you 100%. That is to say, we have achieved this goal. Your company's actual income is 25 million. If we pay on-demand broadcast exceeds 100 million, then your actual income will be 65 million."

Zhang Hehuan laughed. Liu Chonghao has a great ability to draw big cakes. The total VIP members of Feihu Video are only 10 million. How could there be 20 million paid on-demand broadcasts, let alone 100 million. The on-demand broadcast costs are five yuan. This price is too high. According to the current price, it is only 2 yuan.

Zhang Hehuan said: "I want to make a decision on the online broadcast rights matters after they are released."

Liu Chonghao said: "This year's Christmas season competition is very fierce. Even blockbusters like "The Twelve Zodiacs" sell online broadcast rights in advance, and dilute the risks as much as possible. Has Mr. Zhang considered that if the box office is not as good as expected, it will affect the price of your online broadcast rights."

Investment is risky, and Liu Chonghao is telling the truth. Although he is optimistic about Zhang Hehuan's movie, no one can grasp the market 100% of the time. The movies that college students like are not exactly the same as those that ordinary audiences like.

Liu Chonghao wanted to take a gamble, but also wanted to minimize the risks. He believed that Zhang Hehuan did not have the confidence to win like he appeared. There were too many blockbusters this year, and a youth romance film, but the advantages were not obvious...

Most young people are ideal. Zhang Hehuan is really talented, but he is really young. Liu Chonghao doesn’t know where he got his confidence. Based on his understanding of the current film market, the most ideal film "My Savage Girlfriend" is that the box office is over 50 million. According to the 30 million cost claimed by the film company, the film will lose about 14 million. Liu Chonghao gave a price of 15 million, which is not a blunt word, but a comprehensive assessment.

He also has expectations for future member on-demand payments. As long as there are five million paid members, the total income can reach 25 million. On the surface, this number is not enough to offset the cost, but potential traffic and advertising sponsorship are not included.

Although Feihu has only 10 million VIP members, recently, paid members of major video platforms are in a stage of rapid growth. Everyone is ready to harvest a wave of traffic. To achieve this wish, they must have excellent products on hand.

Zhang Hehuan is just a newcomer in the entertainment industry. His fame is not great enough. However, since the popularity of "The Voice of China", the industry has been paying attention to this young man. "China on the Bite of the Tongue" has won both reputation and ratings. Therefore, his first entry into movies has attracted so much attention, and several major video platforms have also offered him high prices for the first time.

The boss of the strange video, Guo Kaige, came over happily, Liu Chonghao greeted him, and Zhang Hehuan laughed and said, "Mr. Guo."

Guo Kaige kindly hugged Zhang Hehuan's shoulder and pulled him aside. In the eyes of the guests on the scene, the relationship between them was very unusual. In fact, Zhang Hehuan and Guo Kaige did not have much date, but with Guo Kaixuan inside, Zhang Hehuan of course wants to give face.

Guo Kaige said: "The movie is so good. How do you say about the online broadcast rights?"

Zhang Hehuan laughed and said, "Mr. Guo, I have discussed with Kaixuan and the others, and I plan to consider this matter after the release."

Guo Kaige said: "You think that strange goods are so rare that you can't even impress you even if you have 20 million?"

Zhang Hehuan glanced at Liu Chonghao in the distance and said, "Flying Hu had just proposed to add 10% of the on-demand share to me."

Guo Kaige said: "They only have many members. We Qiyi now have 30 million VIP members, and our influence is different. If you sign this movie to us, I will arrange to cooperate with you online to promote and distribute it."

Zhang Hehuan said: "Mr. Guo, I won't hide it from you. With the current situation, no matter how much we invest in publicity and development, we cannot compete with other blockbusters, so I chose to release it simultaneously in university theaters and take the reputation route."

Guo Kaige said: "I really like this movie. Let's do it, 30 million, your total production cost is less than 30 million, right?" This price has fully demonstrated Guo Kaige's sincerity and can be considered a sky-high price in today's online broadcast market. It is mainly because "China on the Bite of the Tongue" has earned a lot of reputation before, and Guo Kaige has confidence in Zhang Hehuan.

Seeing that Zhang Hehuan had not expressed his opinion yet, Guo Kaige said: "In our relationship, please give me a happy word. How much is it to sell?"

Zhang Hehuan said: "The online broadcast rights of "The Twelve Zodiacs" were sold for 40 million yuan, and my movie should be higher than it."

Guo Kaige couldn't help but remind him: "I invested 300 million yuan."

“Big production has no advantage on small screens.”

Guo Kaige said: "Your real purpose is to compete for the record of the transfer price of online broadcasting rights, right?"

Zhang Hehuan smiled and nodded, and Guo Kaige was very accurate.

Guo Kaige said: "The price of 40 million is too high. Even if I like your movie, it is difficult for the director to explain."

Zhang Hehuan said: "Brother, if you really want to buy it, let's sign a bet agreement."

"Betting Agreement?"

Zhang Hehuan nodded and said, "You pay me a guaranteed transfer fee of 20 million yuan first. Our movie should be launched simultaneously with "The Twelve Zodiac Signs". If our paid subscription exceeds the Twelve Zodiac Signs, your company will need to pay another 30 million yuan. If our paid subscription is lower than the Twelve Zodiac Signs, your company will not need to add any additional fees."

Guo Kaige hesitated for a moment. To be honest, he was a little confident in this movie. Even if the theaters are not the same rival as the Zodiac signs, it is hard to say when it comes to online broadcasting. The gap should not be as big as the theaters box office. Zhang Hehuan's conditions are indeed heart-warming.

But friendship is friendship, business is business. Since it is about business negotiation, it will eventually return to the tradition of bargaining.

Guo Kaige said: "Since it's a bet, let's just bet bigger. Do you dare to adopt the share model? We will cooperate with the promotion and distribution of the movie. Your transfer fee is settled by online paid on-demand share, and we will share the share of 70,000 yuan." Guo Kaige's abacus is also very smart. As for the moment, the total box office of the movie online on-demand payment does not exceed 100 million yuan. Optimistically, "My Savage Girlfriend" sells for 100 million yuan, and Zhang Hehuan will only share 30 million yuan at most. In addition to on-demand payment, Qiyi can also obtain advertisements and a wave of traffic.

Zhang Hehuan was clear about the routine inside. Guo Kaige's knife was a bit harsh. He smiled and said, "Since it's a bet, everyone should be fair. Five-5 cents, advertising fees and traffic have nothing to do with me, but I cannot promise to give you exclusive online broadcast rights."

When Guo Kaige looked at this kid and wanted to lower the price, Zhang Hehuan said: "This movie is my first work with Triumph."

When Guo Kaige said this, he was embarrassed to suppress his price. In fact, Qiyi doesn’t have to take any risks in this matter. Even if the movie is not ideal, the one who suffers the most losses is the Xinxing Domain. If it becomes popular, Qiyi Video will be the one who benefits the most, and the director also explained it, but what does it mean that he does not promise to Qiyi Exclusive? Do you want to sell three stores?

Guo Kaige's doubts were quickly answered. At the party that night, Zhang Hehuan announced in public that he solicited online broadcast partners. "My Savage Girlfriend" will start online broadcasting on 2.15. This movie will not adopt the exclusive online broadcasting model. In other words, cooperation will be opened to all online broadcast platforms, and the cooperation conditions will be treated equally. Not only is it just a 55% share of the fantasy promise, but it is the same for other online broadcast platforms.

After hearing this news, Guo Kaige shook his head with a wry smile. The young man is terrifying. Zhang Hehuan's move is really based on the long-term. They currently have 30 million VIP members, and Youku claims 50 million, but in fact there are about 40 million. Aurora has developed rapidly during this period. The actual VIP members should not be inferior to the two of them. The total number of VIP members on the three major platforms must be more than 100 million. Including platforms like Feihu and Tuodou, the total VIP members exceeds 150 million.

However, Zhang Hehuan's idea is a bit too ideal. Major platforms are competing with each other. Such an equal cooperation sharing model means that everyone is raising their feet on the New Star Domain and may not be able to arouse everyone's interest. Even Guo Kaige feels that it is not attractive enough.

Zhang Hehuan also announced an additional condition, 55 share is limited to before the release. After the release, the share ratio will decrease over time. He will let the dedicated person refine it to every day, which means that if you sign a contract one day late, the share ratio will be less. If you sign the contract on the 2nd.14th, the share ratio will become 19th, and the new star field accounts for 9th, and the platform can only get 10% of it.

Representatives of major platforms whispered. Although they all acknowledged the quality of this movie, Zhang Hehuan's approach clearly regarded this small-cost movie as a blockbuster. It's too hungry to divide it into five or five.

Guo Kaige still planned to sign, but he still wanted to wait and see if there are other platforms besides his own site who are interested?

After Zhang Hehuan announced this, Xue Chunhua told Qiao Shengtian: "This kid has made a fool of himself. Now video platforms want exclusive online broadcast rights. He does this to put all platforms on the same starting line. Who would be interested?"
