Chapter 72
After receiving Lin Beifan's instructions, Zhao Tonghai immediately worked overtime and re-edited the film.
Make the plot smoother and more perfect.
Then, take it immediately for review.
The review process was also very fast, and it was approved within three days.
Next is the matter of release.
Zhao Tonghai contacted the relevant staff of Penguin Video and signed a release contract.
After reading it, the other party expressed his willingness to sign a C-level sharing contract.
In the field of online video platforms, it is generally accepted that sharing contracts are mainly divided into five levels: ABCDE.
Contract A is the most top-level sharing contract, with a sharing ratio of 9:1, and the filmmakers can receive 90% of the sharing.
At the same time, the platform will also vigorously promote and publicize the film to ensure that the revenue of the film can be maximized.
Such contracts are generally only available to top-tier or major entertainment companies.
The B-level contract is a sub-level share-sharing contract with a share ratio of 7:3, with the filmmaker receiving 70%.
The platform will also vigorously promote it, but the resources are not as good as Contract A.
The C-level contract is a relatively common share-sharing contract, with a share-sharing ratio of 5:5, and the platform recommendation effect is average.
Even though it is a relatively common share-sharing contract, it is not accessible to ordinary people.
The quality of the video must be excellent and recognized by the platform before it can be obtained.
This is the highest-profit contract a filmmaker with no background or reputation can get.
The fact that the other party can give"Detective Chinatown" a C-level contract shows that they are really optimistic about this movie.
The D-level contract is the lowest-level sharing contract on the platform. The sharing ratio is 3:7, and the filmmakers can get 30%.
The platform will do some promotion, but the effect is limited, which is better than nothing.
An E-level contract cannot be called a contract, because the requirements for signing this contract are extremely low, and you can sign it as long as it passes the review.
The platform will not invest any resources in this movie.
Whether it can be popular or not depends entirely on fate.
But most of them are thrown into the street.
The only advantage is that the share ratio reaches 9:1, and the filmmakers can get 90%, which is comparable to a first-class contract.
However, what Lin Beifan likes most is the E-level contract.
For one reason, the score is high
"Mr. Lin, let’s choose the C-level contract! I've already watched it. There haven't been many good movies online recently. Our movie can get a lot of attention and traffic!"Zhao Tonghai persuaded again and again.
Lin Beifan firmly refused:"No, we still choose the E-level contract. I will not let Penguin kill me even if I die! As for the traffic problem, you don’t have to worry, it’s all on me!"
"well!"Zhao Tonghai sighed in disappointment, worried about his movie.
At 8 pm that day, the movie"Detective Chinatown" was quietly released on the platform.
There were 12 other movies released at the same time.
However, among all the movies Among them, their"Detective Chinatown" is the movie with the smallest investment, the smallest promotion, and the smallest actor. The other movies have a minimum scale of 10 million, and some are as close to 30 million.
But they only have 600 Ten thousand.
Other movies are all signed with D-level or above share-sharing contracts, and some have reached B-level and have been vigorously promoted by the platform.
However, theirs is only E-level and has no promotion at all. If the audience can find their movies, they are considered good..
Other movies have invited some popular celebrities, well-known actors or big Internet celebrities to star in. The movie has been receiving attention since the filming started, and the traffic is guaranteed.
But in their movie, there is no one who is somewhat famous, and they are all amateurs..
I just want something, nothing.
After 10 minutes of this, no one clicked in.
It seems to be getting cold.
"Don’t panic, everyone, our movie is not advertised and many people don’t know about it, so this situation is normal! But slowly, people started to look at it!
Zhao Tonghai said calmly:"Everyone can promote it on WeChat Moments first!" The more people watch it, the more popular it will become!"
"Director Zhao is right, I will post it on Moments now so that more people can see it!"
"I have many friends, and they will definitely support me!"
……
Everyone forwarded it to their circle of friends.
Seeing everyone's hard work, although Zhao Tonghai was calm on the outside, he was panicking in his heart.
Relying on the efforts of these people alone, there is little hope.
The only hope is to place it on someone
"Mr. Lin, look……"
Lin Beifan smiled calmly and said:"Don't worry, there will be traffic soon!"
After saying that, he picked up the phone.
At this time, Bai Yuluo was familiar with the script"The Legend of the Empress" in the villa.
Her TV series"Valkyrie" has been completed, so she has shifted her work to movies.
She wants to play the empress well and make her a classic image in the eyes of the audience.
Just then, the phone vibrated.
Bai Yuluo picked it up and looked at it, and found that it was a WeChat message from Lin Beifan.
Lin Beifan: Beauty, are you busy now? (Smile.jpg)
A beautiful smile appeared on Bai Yuluo's face. He couldn't wait to put down the script in his hand and sent it via WeChat.
Bai Yuluo: You usually call me Yuluo, but this time you call me beauty!
Bai Yuluo: If you show your courtesy for nothing, you are either committing adultery or stealing!
Bai Yuluo: Say it! What do you want to do? (glaring.jpg)
Lin Beifan: My movie"Detective Chinatown" was released on Penguin at 8pm tonight, and the traffic is very low, so I would like you, a top star, to help you watch it, and by the way, push it later! (Please, please.jpg)
Bai Yuluo: Will it be released so soon? No news at all! (Doubt.jpg)
Lin Beifan: Because I didn’t advertise at all, so of course you don’t know! (Facepalm.jpg)
Bai Yuluo:...
Bai Yuluo: I have been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and I have never seen anyone play like you.
Bai Yuluo: Even top stars and well-known directors, who are not short of traffic, have to promote and advertise their movies.are flying all over the place, for fear that others won’t know! And you...
Lin Beifan: (Shy.jpg) (Shy.jpg) (Shy.jpg)
Bai Yuluo: Forget it, let’s not talk about you anymore. Send the link and let me see it first! (Tired.jpg)
Lin Beifan: (Thank you.jpg) (You are a good person.jpg) (I love you so much.jpg)
Bai Yuluo: Don't forget our agreement!
Lin Beifan: I will never forget it!
After saying that, Bai Yu clicked on the link sent by Lin Beifan, entered the movie interface, and started watching it seriously.
The movie opens with a young detective going to the White Elephant Country to find his uncle.
The detective boy's name is Qin Feng, and his uncle's name is Tang Ren.
But my uncle was very unreliable and delayed the pick-up at the airport because of playing mahjong.
Later, he picked up someone and took his nephew to a bar to drink. When he woke up the next day, he was still peeping. After being discovered by the beautiful proprietress Axiang, she dumped the blame on the nephew without hesitation.
At this moment, detective boy Qin Feng broke out.
Through a series of careful reasoning, the true face of his uncle Tang Ren was revealed.
He said that he was not a detective at all, but a low-level detective with no skills, a sneaky, obscene and obscene detective who could only spy on the beautiful proprietress.
At this time, Bai Yuluo paused for a moment.
"The movie starts well. Through a series of small things, the two characters are established: the uncle who is rustic, greasy, lustful, and unreliable, and the nephew who is shy and stutters but has super reasoning ability!"
"Moreover, these short stories are closely connected, interlocking, and full of unexpected humor and comedy, attracting the audience unconsciously!"
"In addition, these two people's acting skills are so natural, they don't look like they are acting!"
Finally, Bai Yuluo concluded
"Worth a look!"
So, she continued reading.
A gold theft occurred in Chinatown.
However, a suspect who stole the gold died and the gold disappeared, forming a case within the case.
Tang Ren became a suspect because he appeared at the scene of the crime. He was accused of being hunted.
Qin Feng was implicated and was also hunted.
So the two started a great escape.
During the process of escaping, they secretly investigated the truth of the case in order to clear themselves of suspicion.
During this process, many ridiculous things happened.
Bai Yuluo couldn't help laughing after watching it.
Unknowingly, 20 minutes passed quickly.
At this time, a pop-up window popped up in the movie, prompting a fee.
You need to pay 6 yuan to watch it. The following content.
Bai Yuluo did not hesitate, paid the money, and continued to watch.
The story of the detective continued, and various people appeared one after another.
Two funny and tortured police detectives, Huang Langdeng and Kuntai.
They are extremely evil, but their brains are often flooded. The trio of gangsters.
The godfather of Chinatown who is mysterious but sings karaoke.
Of course, the charming and coquettish proprietress Ah Xiang is indispensable.
……
The process is exciting, yet humorous!
Before you know it, three-quarters of the movie has played.
Although he hasn't finished watching the movie, Bai Yuluo already knows a lot about it.
"This is a good movie!"
"The script is very mature, the stories are interlocking, exciting, but also humorous, and there is no peeing in the whole process!"
"Although the actors' acting skills are a bit immature, their performances are very natural and have their own characteristics!"
"The most important thing is that this movie perfectly combines crime solving and comedy, opening up a blue ocean in the domestic film market and definitely having the potential to become a hit!"
However, what makes Bai Yuluo feel regretful is that——
"Why hasn't Mr. Landlady shown up yet?"
Unconsciously, the plot of the movie came to an end. The two detectives finally solved the case and proved their innocence.
It turned out that the murderer of Songpa was Sinuo's adoptive father Li.
In order to protect his adopted daughter Sinuo, he planned the murder Song Pa, and put the blame on Tang Ren.
But in the end, Qin Feng discovered a flaw. The real murderer was not Sinuo's adoptive father Li, but Sinuo himself. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Because the adoptive father Li had some transcendent ethical thoughts about Sinuo.
Sinuo was afraid, so he confused his adoptive father by writing a diary, and killed Songpa with the help of his adoptive father. Then he used the hands of two detectives to kill Songpa. Get rid of the adoptive father.
There are many links, and it is terrifying to think about it. Unfortunately, there is no direct evidence to prove that it was Sinuo. This was a perfect crime, so Qin Feng left with regret.
After the two detectives left, Si Nuo Nuo picked up the phone and opened the chat software.
There was only one contact on it.——
Sinuo: Am I doing this right?
: There is no such thing as right or wrong! As long as the law cannot judge you, who dares to say that you are wrong?
Sinuo:...
: In short, you are free now, aren't you?
Sinuo: Yes, I am free! Freedom is great, long live freedom!
Sinuo: Thank you for helping me. Goodbye!
Sinuo deleted this only contact, put away his phone, looked out the window, and felt the sun was shining brightly.
At this time, the camera turned and appeared in a dim room.
The character played by Lin Beifan finally appeared in the scene.
Bai Yuluo perked up and watched attentively.
I saw Lin Beifan in the camera, dressed in black, with flowing and messy hair, sitting lazily on a chair, looking at a notebook with one hand on his chin, looking careless, cold and gloomy.
"Qin Feng, Tang Ren? interesting!"
Bai Yuluo nodded secretly.
The landlord's attitude was so well acted and so right!
He looked like a decadent and lazy boy who had just woken up.
But if you look closely, you will find that this is no ordinary boy..
Because his eyes are cold and aloof, as if he has seen through everything, and seems to dominate it all.
The corners of his mouth are slightly curved, with a sense of playfulness, just like a cat seeing a mouse.
As a young villain , it should look like this.
In addition, another thing worth mentioning is that this shot is almost from opposite faces!
Lin Beifan’s appearance is fully displayed, it is simply a stunning look!
After looking over, Bai Yuluo had a moment lose
At this moment, Lin Beifan's eyes narrowed, the corners of his mouth raised, and his temperament suddenly changed.
Directly from a lazy and melancholic beautiful boy, he turned into a perverted murderer full of madness and killing. The murderous intention almost came out of the screen.
"My test is not over yet, let's... continue playing!"
"This this……"
Bai Yuluo felt horrified, and the hairs all over his body stood up.
After a while, I finally regained my strength.
"This acting is amazing!"
Bai Yuluo exclaimed:"I have seen many people acting as killers, but no one has ever shown the murderous intention that can compare to the landlord!"
"What's even more amazing is that a lazy boy and a perverted murderer, these two almost completely opposite temperaments, switch very naturally!"
It's obviously the same face, but different temperaments! Absolutely amazing!"
At this point, the video ended.
Bai Yuluo is still satisfied and wants to watch it again.
Especially watching Lin Beifan, I feel like I can learn a lot from his performance.
However, there is still an agreement to fulfill at this time. she tweeted.
Highly recommend the just-released movie"Detective Chinatown"!
This is an online movie about a detective. It has climaxes and hilarious moments. It’s totally worth watching!
In addition, one thing to note is that don’t be scared until the end!
……
At this time, around 10 o'clock in the evening, Weibo traffic is at its highest.
Bai Yuluo is another super celebrity on Weibo, with the number of fans exceeding 100 million.
Her Weibo post immediately attracted many fans
"The goddess recommends a new drama again!"
"The last time I recommended"Secrets Can't Be Revealed", I'm still reading it now, it's so funny!"
"Detective Chinatown? The name sounds interesting, I'll go check it out now!"
"However, what does the goddess’ last sentence mean? Don’t be scared until the end... What’s scary about a detective movie? Is there a disgusting scene of murder and dismemberment?"
"How could such a disgusting scene pass the review? The official above was all cut off with one knife!"
"What's so scary about that?"
……
During everyone's discussion, the traffic of the movie"Detective Chinatown" skyrocketed.
In less than 1 minute, tens of thousands of viewers poured in.
In less than three minutes, the number of people reached four to five million.
However, the number of clicks is still skyrocketing.
Zhao Tonghai and others were stunned.
"This... what on earth is going on?"
"We were not recommended, so why did the number of clicks increase so ridiculously?"
"Can anyone tell me why this is?"
……
Everyone looked at each other.
At this time, Wang Baobao slapped his head:"Why are you thinking so much? Let's read the comments. Don't we know it by reading the comments?"
"Yes... let's read the comments!"
But after reading it, everyone was even more confused.
"How could this Bai Yuluo help us?"
"We don’t seem to have anything to do with her, right?"
"Can anyone explain?"
……
Only director Zhao Tonghai looked at Lin Beifan thoughtfully:"Mr. Lin, this……"
Lin Beifan smiled reservedly and said:"Bai Yuluo and I are good friends, so please help her promote it!"
"I see!"Zhao Tonghai said excitedly:"Bai Yuluo is one of the top people today. One person can drive hundreds of millions of traffic! With her help, our movie is going to take off!"
"Great, we're taking off!"Everyone cheered.
