Volume 2: Storm Rising 2015 Chapter 290 The Joy of the Reborn
Jiang Yilei was a little anxious. "Well, didn't Mr. Zhou promise not to interfere with our creative freedom?"
Before interests are mixed in, friendship is always relatively pure, and Jiang Yilei cherishes this pure friendship in his heart.
Especially... when there is no visible benefit and the earnings are unknown!
People have their own scales in their hearts, and weighing gains and losses depends entirely on personal choices.
"Hey, Xiaolei, don't say that. This is not my stage. I still have to go to film. Just seize this opportunity and shine on your stage."
Huo Nifang was actually only slightly disappointed, but compared to this disappointment, she was still sincerely happy for Jiang Yilei.
After all, she has always felt that Jiang Yilei is just a talented person who has not been recognized, and he will definitely be able to shine as long as he has the opportunity.
As for her, if she can't be the head of a chicken, then she can continue to be the tail of a chicken in the entertainment industry. Anyway, with her resume, she won't do too badly at the worst.
Zhou Dongsheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I think you misunderstood me. What I meant was that it would be better if Miss Jiang stood alone on the stage. As for the personal freedom of the behind-the-scenes team and creative work, I really didn't intend to interfere."
"After all, compared to movies with grand narratives, one of the main features of short videos on the Internet is that they are short, flat and fast. Instead of using multiple characters to share the audience's attention, it is better to focus the camera on one person, which can also make it easier for the audience to remember."
"And judging from the performance of your video account, there is no doubt that Miss Jiang is the more suitable candidate..."
Zhou Dongsheng did not hide his admiration for Jiang Yile in his words, which made Xu Bin on the side feel extremely crisis-stricken. It turns out that I am not the only one who has eyes that can discover beauty!
Of course, to be honest, Jiang Yile's appearance is still above average, but the effect of her video is to reflect the core of sharp tongue complaints through the funny performance of "self-destructing the Great Wall".
Compared to the current Internet celebrities who are still competing with each other for attention and flourishing, this unconventional performance style is also a manifestation of Jiang Yilei's ingenuity.
Listening to Zhou Dongsheng's unhurried explanation and his approachable attitude made people feel like spring breeze.
Jiang Yilei couldn't help but blush. Although the other party was younger than him, judging from this "pattern", he seemed to be far behind.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. Zhou. I was too anxious." Jiang Yile apologized quickly.
Zhou Dongsheng waved his hand nonchalantly and said jokingly, "Although I'm letting you debut as a solo artist, I'm not saying that you guys won't have any contact with each other forever. The Internet is not the entertainment industry."
Xu Ruoan, who was standing by, couldn't help but laugh and said, "I didn't expect that Mr. Zhou, at such a young age, has such a deep understanding of the entertainment industry."
"After all, I know the secretary of the entertainment industry." Zhou Dongsheng made fun of Principal Wang at the same time. With this casual joke, the atmosphere became much more harmonious.
Zhou Dongsheng's approachable aura also made Jiang Yilei's nervousness completely disappear. Instead, he paused for the three words Zhou Dongsheng casually said, "short, flat and fast", which was a very accurate summary of the short video.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Zhou, at such a young age, has not only made achievements in the live broadcasting field, but also has a deep understanding of short videos. Jiang Yilei couldn't help but sigh, not only is he not as rich as others, but can't he even compete with him in talent?
"Mr. Zhou, may I ask what you think about the development of short videos? How does it compare to the live streaming industry?" In addition to admiration, Jiang Yilei also wanted to ask Zhou Dongsheng for advice.
Compared with the creator's perspective, Jiang Yile is also somewhat curious about what the industry is like from the perspective of the big guys.
"I am personally very optimistic about the development of short videos, otherwise I would not invest, right? Compared with live streaming, the two still have certain similarities."
"The participation threshold is low, the production process is not complicated, and the interaction with the audience is strong. This may also be the so-called Internet attribute."
"It's just that short videos are undoubtedly more valuable than live broadcasts, and will inevitably give birth to more talented grassroots, just like the live broadcast industry."
"After all, whether it is live broadcast or short video, it undoubtedly gives the creative power that was originally shelved to the public, allowing the public to freely express and judge. The public is both the creator and the judge... "
"And with the mobile Internet brought about by the thorough popularization of 4G and smartphones, the era of universal live broadcasting and universal short video will also be ushered in. By then, the wild vitality bursting out from the general public will be enough to make countless capitals salivate..."
Zhou Dongsheng talked eloquently, and just giving a glimpse of the future that he had personally experienced was enough.
“When such a great era comes, whoever can seize the opportunity first will naturally reap considerable benefits, whether it’s me or you, Miss Jiang,” Zhou Dongsheng said with a smile.
No matter how much you try to deceive people, in the end, money is what moves people's hearts. However, talking about money directly is too vulgar, so we always have to have some appetizers first.
After all, not everyone is willing to admit that they are ordinary people, so they can only use the high-sounding hat of "dream" to whitewash the situation.
"Now that things have come to this, I don't think I have any reason to refuse. When such a great era comes, I want to be a participant rather than a spectator," Jiang Yile said frankly.
"Then congratulations to Ms. Jiang for becoming the second video creator signed by our [Yinian Media]. The relevant operations will be handled by the professional Mr. Xu. As for the creation, it is your personal freedom, provided that it does not violate the law and harm the interests of the company..."
Most importantly, Zhou Dongsheng didn't think he could provide any guidance or help in creation. Even though he had seen a lot of pigs running, he didn't dare to watch in front of professionals.
Behind every popular IP are the hard work of the creators and the team. Those copywriting and lines that make people laugh may be the result of repeated polishing and research by the team.
The shortness of short videos is just a form, and the efforts behind them cannot be greatly reduced.
Jiang Yilei nodded his head, and then couldn't help asking out of curiosity: "Boss, can I ask who was the first person to sign a contract with our company?"
In fact, the two of them are colleagues in the same company. They might meet each other every day in the future. It is always good to get to know each other and say hello in advance.
After all, this is part of the workplace.
"Oh, you can find out if you search [Muziqi] on Weibo. It can be regarded as a food we-media. As for your positioning, it should be a personal language we-media, just like a talk show."
"By the way, do you have any ideas about the ID of your personal account..." At this time, Zhou Dongsheng pretended to ask casually, but in fact he was already eager to do something.
For some reason, Zhou Dongsheng enjoyed this kind of participation, even the process of " creating " a well-known IP, just like the process of collecting achievements while playing games.
Could this be one of the pleasures of being reborn? Zhou Dongsheng thought with a sense of evil.
"I have no idea at the moment. Does the boss have any good suggestions?" Jiang Yilei asked without hesitation.
"Emmm, the name has to be combined with the characteristics of the short video. It must be memorable at a glance, and even catchy. In this regard, 'TCgirls Loves Tucao' is a bit ordinary."
"I think the name [Papi Jiang] is good." Zhou Dongsheng's intention is already known to everyone.
"Huh? Boss, do you know my personal Weibo? It's called [Papi Jiang]..." Jiang Yilei said with some surprise.
Well, it turns out that this name has a long history and was not a sudden idea. Zhou Dongsheng felt that there was a slight deviation in his "stamp collecting".
But Zhou Dongsheng still had the ulterior motive, "Then...do you have any idea for the opening line of your personal video? It's like a brand's advertising slogan. It has to leave a lasting impression on the audience right from the start."
