Zhou Dongsheng was naturally not unhappy at all about this. On the contrary, he was very happy. After all, for him, a speculator who only talks about things, the more confident he is when he does practical things, the better.
Therefore, Zhou Dongsheng also laughed and said, "Okay! If Mr. Yang has such firm confidence, then as an investor, I will feel relieved. Let's talk about this award."
"Right now, it's already the end of 2015, and there's still more than a month to prepare. I think there should be plenty of time."
"There is no need to rush when setting the list. It is enough to sort out the process first and then send out invitations to suitable candidates. I can't guarantee that in the last month or so, there will be a few more like [Papi Jiang].
Where’s the creator?”
Zhou Dongsheng said with a smile, and Yang Luyu readily accepted Zhou Dongsheng's proposal this time.
"Now that it has been decided, I think this first session is more symbolic, but it cannot be done hastily. We must try our best to do the best in terms of venue and process..."
Although he was dissatisfied with his integrity, Yang Luyu couldn't help but start to get excited in his heart when he talked about being serious and putting it into practice.
People are all like this. Before they do something, they are timid. They don’t dare to be a pioneer who dares to be the first and take the lead. After all, “the first bird will be shot first”.
But sometimes when I make up my mind to do it, I will spontaneously feel like a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. Since no one has done it yet, let me give you a sample first!
Contradiction itself is part of human nature.
After mobilizing Yang Luyu's enthusiasm, Zhou Dongsheng also talked with him about the content and coverage of the awards.
"Although this first edition is more symbolic, there are still due honors. For example, the Best Short Video Creator of the Year, I think there is a high probability that [Papi Jiang] will win."
"We can also set up a best newcomer of the year. Emmm, this award should also be for [Papi Jiang], but there is no hope next year, so it can be regarded as encouraging newcomers."
"At the same time, in addition to individual awards for creators, we can also create a team award in the future, or even award awards for a certain short video, which will be the most popular short video by the audience next year..."
"As for the name of the award ceremony, other people's movies are the Academy Awards, and our short video counts every second, so why not call it the Golden Second Awards."
Obviously, Zhou Dongsheng is planning to completely block the way for future generations. Not only does he want to "learn from" the name of the award, but he also doesn't plan to let go of the product name!
The more Zhou Dongsheng talked, the happier he became. It seemed that he could already see the people and works he was familiar with, standing on the award podium, and with his own "strategic guidance", he might be able to contract for a few more awards...
emmm, but if this is the case, will other people think that this award is unfair and that it is all insider trading?
This question made Zhou Dongsheng ponder for a moment, and then he patted his head and said, "What's there to worry about? As long as the work can convince the audience and win the award with absolutely overwhelming strength, then what's the point of controversy?"
Although these short video awards sound very similar to those in the entertainment industry, the basis for the awards must come from the audience's accumulated data votes over time, rather than purely decided by the judges...
Therefore, there is no need for any behind-the-scenes operation!
Yang Luyu also found it very interesting when he heard this, "Why does this sound a bit like some kind of film awards that evaluate actors and actresses?"
"That's right, what we want is such an effect. Maybe in the future our award will be able to catch up with others' gold content?"
"After all, compared to the entertainment industry where there are only a small number of celebrities, our short videos are aimed at the general public!"
"As long as the people like to hear and see something, isn't it a good thing?"
Zhou Dongsheng said with a smile, quoting such a weighty sentence to seal the coffin, it can be said that the pattern was raised at once.
Hearing this, Yang Luyu couldn't help but think a lot. Yes, that's the truth. Just like movies in the past, when they were just born, people only used them as a means of recording life.
At the earliest, some documentary short films such as "Factory Gate" shot by the Lumiere brothers simply pointed the camera at the factory gate, truly recording the scene of the factory getting off work. In the lens, some male and female workers were walking, and some were walking.
Finally, the factory owner drove away in his car, and finally the gatekeeper closed the door.
There is no artistic processing component, it is just the simplest record of life. This is the earliest "movie". With the addition of dramatic elements to the film form by a French theater manager named Méliès, it became
The art form of film has taken on new life and become popular all over the world...
Immediately afterwards, representative figures in film history such as Chaplin and montage pushed the art form of film to unprecedented heights, and then ranked as the seventh art of mankind.
History is always surprisingly similar. Judging from this history, isn’t it a bit like the development of short videos?
Although, at this time, short videos are still just an emerging product, there is nothing wrong with the tool itself, and it ultimately depends on how humans use it.
"Listening to your words is worth ten years of reading. Mr. Zhou, I have to say that the height you stand at always brings me a completely different perspective. I have benefited a lot..."
This time, Yang Luyu sincerely expressed his admiration for Zhou Dongsheng, especially because Zhou Dongsheng always revealed that mysterious confidence in his words, as if what he said was the future he had seen with his own eyes.
…
The more contact, the more profound Yang Luyu’s feeling becomes. Perhaps this is the investor’s unique vision?
Yang Luyu could only explain it this way. After all, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't think of the truth. It was indeed Zhou Dongsheng who "saw it with his own eyes."
Zhou Dongsheng laughed out loud, and felt quite comfortable with the flattery, but he said habitually: "Where is it? I can only make suggestions. If you really let me get started, I won't be able to do it."
…”
Although what he said was true, to Yang Luyu's ears, it was completely overly modest. After all, based on these ideas, in the position of the helm, even a pig with a head can win (funny).
This sudden thought made Yang Luyu laugh dumbly. He was not a pig... So, with the strong alliance, this muse short video naturally has a bright future.
"Mr. Zhou, please stop being modest. If you do it yourself, there will be no way for me to survive!" Yang Luyu joked.
Seeing that this was almost done, I was ready to tell Yang Luyu the most important thing in advance.
This matter is naturally related to the name and positioning of the muse short video.
Although the award ceremony was a good thing, for Zhou Dongsheng, it was nothing more than a suggestion.
If muse short videos do not develop smoothly and are easily replaced by future headlines, then this award will naturally become a laughing stock.
But as long as muse's short video seizes the opportunity and leaves latecomers with nowhere to go, the value of this award will naturally increase...
Therefore, regarding this crucial development issue, Zhou Dongsheng felt that the current time when they were having a good conversation was the best time for him to wait.
"Well, now that we have talked about this, Mr. Yang, there is another very important thing, which is related to the future development of muse short video. I must tell you about it."
Zhou Dongsheng changed the subject and said solemnly.
