Chapter 1149： fakenews

Several days passed.

Going to the office, Mays sorted out some newspapers and movie market news as usual.

Lehman picked up the top copy, and just wanted to switch to the entertainment section, he found that the front page had a photo of the leader smiling, and the accompanying text quoted the "World's Most Influential Leader in the World" issued by GQ magazine to the leader. One of the Powerful Characters" with an illustrated medal.

"Haha." Lyman died of laughter.

In such a "free" land, watching the president's jokes has become a daily routine for the people.

Although it is a spoof, it actually makes sense now. In June of this year, former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney officially announced his participation in the 12-year election. The 400-billion-dollar job subsidy that he advocated to save his prestige failed to pass within the Democratic Party, let alone showing his authority in the White House to win the hearts and minds of the people.

In addition, most of the cakes he painted before he took office have not been realized, and he has frequently made troubles overseas, but the domestic unemployment problem has been unresolved. AAA was reduced to AA+, and the outlook was negative. It is conceivable how some media at this time viewed the first African-American leader in history.

Of course, laughing and laughing, Lehman quickly turned to the entertainment section that he should be most interested in and understand the information in the circle.

Then the first title is to celebrate "Deathly Hallows" breaking 700 million worldwide. In the accompanying picture next to it, the media very cunningly put a group of main creators from the set photos of 2001 all the way to the set photos of 11 years. Look, the contrast effect of the years is very obvious.

Well, Warner's emotional card is endless.

Continuing to look at it, the rest are all the hype of some new works, including the promotion of "Spartan Warriors 2" by Blue Butterfly.

After reading the newspaper, I picked up the movie market data.

However, he found that although "Harry Potter" has been continuously promoted, the results are slippery.

It can make 90 million a day, and it can only make more than 4 million a day. After the first day, the film began to drop. At the beginning, it only dropped by 30% or 40%. In the second week, the total value came down at the same time. On the contrary, the decline was even more. The highest one fell directly by 68%. Such a steep trend chart is still quite scary.

It can be regarded as a perfect interpretation of the route that a traffic masterpiece should have. The return is fast and the turnover is fast, and the results can be seen in a short period of time.

Lehmann looked at the box office total of just over 250 million in North America, and thought that according to this number, 400 million must be hopeless, but from a global perspective, the return of "Deathly Hallows: Part II" has been excellent. .

Like "Captain America 2", it has also drawn a landslide-like trend, and it is not as exaggerated as "Deathly Hallows: Part II".

As of now, it has been released for 5 weeks, and it has already fallen out of the top ten of the weekly list, and it has less than 5 million in the account on weekends and off days.

"Boss, are you going to the audition for "American Horror"?"

In the afternoon, Blake, who came to the Firefly Building, asked.

"How's the script going?"

"The main framework has been written, and the rest is just to fill in and polish it. I have already got the 4-episode script jointly determined by several of them."

"You didn't invite any famous big-name actors, did you?"

"No. The combination of handsome men and beautiful women + experienced veteran actors is enough. Most of the money for this show is spent behind the scenes. I calculated that the production cost of the first season is about 17 million."

Well, on average, it's almost 1.4 million per episode, which is considered a high-end group in American TV dramas, so they didn't save much money.

After all, what is the quality of the show, the audience can clearly perceive it when watching it. Except for some fans whose filters are too serious, not everyone is willing to watch shoddy pictures.

"Is it the last round of auditions?"

"Yes, I've been with them for a while. When they were writing the script, I sent invitations to various agencies."

"It's fine, let's go."

The two drove to the place, which is the office building in the park rented by Amber Video, but let a group of IT men who are engaged in programming really understand the Hollywood audition process.

Curiosity returns to curiosity. In fact, it’s the same thing. Red sofas have long been out of fashion. If you look right, you won’t mess around in the audition room. It’s so formal, it makes some people regret it.

"Hey, Ron, how are you doing?" It's been a while since Amber hasn't been around for a while, and Lehman is naturally concerned about how his streaming media is developing.

"Our paid members are almost stable at 4.4 million, of which more than 200,000 are brought by the Latin market. Also, those film sources in Mexico, Latin America and other regions have greatly helped us absorb minorities. I can say that in New Mexico, our audience is bigger than Netflix, but in other places it's not enough, the share is very low." Ron didn't very much embellish the statement used in the report, and said in a 1510: "Also, The speed of our revenue growth is not keeping up with the increase in traffic, some of which are not proportional. The idea of ​​playing differential cards is correct, but it is really not a good way to increase revenue, a lot of money is earned by those agents, bandwidth and servers In many cases, the conversion rate of local film sources is not as high as that of the company.”

Ron's meaning is very clear, the data is too fictitious. It looks good and has more moisture than other peers.

So don't look at the user growth is not bad, but the financial resources that users can provide to the platform is not very good. As mentioned earlier, the cost of doing business in international regions, cost + agency, etc. will almost divert two-thirds of the revenue originally belonging to the platform. That is to say, although some overseas film sources are cheap, the value created is only the United Kingdom and the United States. 1/3 of the film source of the same value.

In other words, the 3 million minority groups who like to watch overseas film sources are about equal to the 1 million local loyal users on Netflix (African Americans have been assimilated into Americans).

"I just want to know if there is an agent to help screen the film source, will it work?"

"There must be some effect. They are locals. Of course, they know better than us what geo-labeled users are looking for. Besides, having someone who is familiar with the rules is also convenient for negotiating and bargaining Ron laughed at himself, "If Let me buy those sources, at least I am forced to pack a lot of copyrights that are rotten in the film library, because I can't tell the value between the sources at all. "

He does have self-awareness.

This job is like buying a TV station. Periodically buying episodes for the film library, who can always accurately estimate the value of each copyright? What's more, in order to balance the finances and increase the turnover, the production company must hope that the copyrights with little value can also be released from the library to create benefits, which requires the eyesight and eloquence of the purchasing personnel.

"It's just useful, we have to give people some benefits, otherwise why would others do things for us with their hearts? Just spend some money. At this stage, my requirement for Amber is to cultivate users and seize the market. The rest doesn't matter, any international users are fine. , local users, as long as they can bring us traffic and activity, all are welcome.”

"Okay." The big boss didn't care, and Ron was relieved. He now has people No. 7 and 80 to eat with him, which is also very stressful. "The boss, there are some problems with funding?" He tweaked, "I think the server needs to be expanded. A few days ago, someone reported to me the issue of Shuaixin frequency, which will make the viewing experience of users worse."

"..."

Lehmann said in his heart that you just complained to me about the platform's independent income, and you started to allocate money in the blink of an eye, which made me unable to react for a while.

"Report to the financial report, and I will sign it."
