my life is running wild

Chapter 76 The Feedback Effect of Movie Box Office on Album Revenue
In Manager Zhou's follow-up series of flattering words of "You are tall!", "You are really tall!", "I am convinced by someone Zhou!".

Liu Chengyin posed a series of question marks again: "????"

isn't it?
I just said that "fools don't believe it", why do people believe it?
Is there something wrong with him, or something wrong with me?

As the saying goes, "reach out and don't hit the smiling face".

Facing the other party's attitude, Liu Chengyin had to deal with it well.

If it is not necessary, Liu Chengyin is not willing to make enemies for nothing.

In fact, Manager Zhou may not necessarily believe the rhetoric on the Internet.

But Manager Zhou is a "consequence theory".

In Manager Zhou's view, although there were some twists and turns in the middle, the result did not change.

At present, the movie "Frivolous" has regained the opportunity to compete for the box office champion in September,

Regardless of whether it was Liu Chengyin's design or not, generally speaking, they have nothing to lose.

Well, the loss here refers to "less profit".

In fact, they got what they wanted after they invested in Ryu Seung-um's film and put their own actors in it.

Since there was no "loss", they did not intend to use this as an enmity with Liu Chengyin.

First of all, they felt that Liu Chengyin was a gold mine, which would be useful in the future.

Secondly, if Liu Chengyin was responsible for the film's box office success, then Liu Chengyin would not be able to easily offend him.

They didn't want to set up such an enemy if it wasn't necessary.

After finally replying to the other party's "there is a chance to continue to cooperate" with the sentence "there is a chance", Liu Chengyin finally dealt with Manager Zhou.

However, not long after, another phone call came in.

This time it was Manager Wu from "Tianxing Entertainment".

Alright, let's get on with it.

When Manager Wu first came up, he used the same rhetoric as Manager Zhou's, and that's all there is to it.

It took a few minutes to deal with another one.

In the time that followed, phone calls came one after another.

Manager Wang of "Star Movie".

Manager Zhang of "Firework Film and Television".

and representatives of other theaters.
And Manager Zhao from "Cool Brother Music".
and many more!

Cool music?

See the contact name on the phone screen.

Liu Chengyin hesitated and did not answer for a long time.

Kuge Music is one of the four music platforms that cooperated with Liu Chengyin to release albums.

After the box office became popular, Manager Wang and the others called to flatter him.

But in Liu Chengyin's view, the price of becoming popular at the box office is through the album being exchanged by the audience for movie tickets and white female tickets.
The album was voted by the white girl, which means that the income that should have belonged to the album was deprived of it by the movie.

The income from the album has decreased, besides Liu Chengyin, the most distressing thing is of course the four music platforms that he cooperates with.

Now, people from four music platforms are calling. Could it be to scold him?
No, scolding should not be enough, at most it is just complaining.

Liu Chengyin didn't want to keep people waiting for a long time. After being mentally prepared to accept the other party's complaints, he connected the phone.

As soon as the call was connected, the other party came up and said, "Director Liu, you are tall! You are really tall!"

Unexpectedly, when Liu Chengyin received the call, what he heard was not the kind of complaint he had guessed, but a compliment?
Is it irony?
Liu Chengyin tentatively replied: "Where is it high?"

Manager Zhao replied: "Director Liu, you're being modest, isn't it? Your move to combine movies and albums, you get rid of the burden that was thrown at you by the Internet, and revived the box office. It's not high, what is it?"

Liu Chengyin: "But, everyone went to buy movie tickets to get the album for free, and the sales of the album were affected, so your platform didn't respond?"

Manager Zhao: "Oh, that's right! I'm calling this time to tell you about our platform's reaction."

Alas~ That's right.

Liu Chengyin thought this way in his heart, and then he was ready to listen to the other party's complaints again.

Soon, Manager Zhao started: "In view of the impact of movie ticket sales on album sales, our platform has decided to increase your advertising revenue for Director Liu by 20 points, which is now 60%"

Hearing this, Liu Chengyin felt something was wrong: "Wait! What's the matter with the increased advertising share?"

Manager Zhao: "Is Director Liu still not satisfied with this share? Do you want to increase the sales share? This is not easy to compare. My platform originally only has 20%. Let me give it to you."

Liu Chengyin: "No, no, that's not what I meant, I just asked you, the box office of "Frivolous" has gone up, right?"

Manager Zhao: "Obviously."

Liu Chengyin: "The box office has risen, which means that more movie tickets have been sold, right?"

Manager Zhao: "Yes."

Liu Chengyin: "There are more movie tickets sold, and more free albums, right?"

Manager Zhao: "Yes."

Liu Chengyin: "Get the album for free! It's the kind that doesn't give money!"

Manager Zhao: "I know."

Liu Chengyin: "That's right! There are so many white female votes, why does your platform have no influence?"

Manager Zhao: "Yes! Of course it has an impact! The impact is too great!"

Liu Chengyin: "That's right, with such a big influence, don't you think you're treating me. What are you complaining about? Also, what's going on with this increase in advertising revenue?"

Manager Zhao: "Complain? Ah, yes!"

Hearing this, Liu Chengyin nodded: "Please start your complaint."

Afterwards, Manager Zhao started: "You don't know, since the movie "Frivolous" became popular, the traffic on the sales page of the "Frivolous" album of the same name has skyrocketed!
Our ad department is buzzing with advertisers fighting to buy a slot on the sales page
Our advertising department is running out of staff all of a sudden, but it makes us worry hahahaha"

Are you sure this is "complaining" and not showing off?

Liu Chengyin: "Wait! The traffic is skyrocketing?"

Hearing what the other party said, Liu Chengyin instantly felt that he understood why the other party not only didn't complain to him, but wanted to increase his advertising revenue.

It's because of the loss in album sales, and it's compensated by advertising fees, right?
That's right, even if the audience wants to use the movie ticket to buy the album, they still need to enter the album sales page.

As long as they need to enter the sales page, they will inevitably see some advertisements along the way and provide traffic for the platform.

And the platform can earn money from advertisers through user traffic!

In this way, these users seem to be white girls, but they still create benefits for the platform.

Thinking of this, Liu Chengyin felt a lot lighter after making sure that the other party would not complain to him, let alone scold him.

After feeling relieved, Liu Chengyin generously asked the other party what he cared about the most: "Well, with so many white female votes, it must affect the sales of the album, right?"
