Zhao Qian, the marketing director, reported to Ye Mingxuan, who was sitting in the center seat,"At present, the beverage giants are more interested. There are also some cosmetics and women's products. The overall revenue can reach 200 million including exclusive sponsorship, but it must be Lin Yun 'er to join. It is best to let her take the lead in a few advertisements.”
200 million yuan in advertising sponsorship revenue was definitely considered very high for an online variety show. Even the current national variety show, Running Man, only had around 500 million yuan on this. This was a national variety show on Star.
However, Ye Mingxuan was obviously very dissatisfied. As a transmigrator, he was very clear about the commercial value and national influence of Creation 101. It was the trump card variety show in 2018. If it wasn't for some reason that this kind of show couldn't be on the stars, it would at least be a national variety show that had a good voice and was comparable to running men.
Therefore, 200 million yuan, which was a very successful sponsorship advertisement income in the eyes of outsiders, was completely sold at a low price in Ye Mingxuan's eyes. It was only the beginning of the 16th year, which was two years early. Moreover, both the contestants and the judges had been greatly strengthened. 500 million yuan, which was a crazy number to others, was not crazy at all in Ye Mingxuan's eyes. It was just a reasonable income.
"My budget for this show is 300 million yuan. This is excluding the cost of buying out the contract and only the production expenses. So what was the use of 200 million yuan in sponsorship advertising revenue? He directly rejected it. We won't talk about this in the first three episodes. We'll talk about it after the third episode. We're on the Internet, so we'll always be on Penguin Video. We have to be far-sighted when doing big things. CEO Sun, what do you think of my suggestion?”
Sun Zhonghuai, who was firmly locked in by Ye Mingxuan's sharp eyes and domineering aura, immediately nodded and agreed. He did not dare to question him at all and continue to argue because he knew that his cousin was serious this time and wanted to make a decision alone.
Although the producer, Sun Zhonghuai, was always finding fault with him, he was still very loyal to his duty. This was his job, and he was also the professional butler that his uncle had specially sent to help him make this show.
It was obvious that Ye Mingxuan's uncle, Brother Ma, did not think that his nephew, who had just graduated from Southern California, could really make an ace variety show to reverse the huge losses of the Penguin video variety show segment and successfully turn losses into profits. However, he was still his only nephew and the only male in the three generations of the Ma family. He was also willing to work for Penguin, so he naturally had to give him such an opportunity. Otherwise, his sister would not easily let go of his cute younger brother.
Although they agreed to Ye Mingxuan's risk, they still had to say the ugly things first. Old people with real power like Sun Zhonghuai didn't like Ye Mingxuan's sudden appearance. They didn't want Penguin to become a family business. Otherwise, why would Ma Xiaoling have to open her own game company, Tianmei?
Although Penguin only got 30% of the shares after investing a lot, this was an attitude. Penguin was a listed company. Although the founder, Brony, was a major shareholder, the company was not his alone. There were many things that needed to be done in moderation.
"Director Ye, since you feel that this is more beneficial, then we will do as you say. However, if the response after three episodes is mediocre, and the revenue from sponsorship advertisements is less than 200 million, I still hope that Director Ye can be frugal in the subsequent programs and not continue to be so extravagant. It's not easy for our Penguin Video to make money. The company lost nearly 2 billion last year.”
Ye Mingxuan naturally knew this. In the current streaming media industry in the mainland, which company wasn't burning money? None of them were truly profitable. Penguin was a rising star. Although the parent company had strong financial resources, it was necessary to burn money if it wanted to catch up. It was not yet time to make a full profit.
However, since he was here now, and he had even brought Creation 101, the losses in the variety industry would be wiped out very quickly. He would be the first to turn losses into profits. By then, wouldn't Penguin Video's variety section be in his pocket?
If he failed in his business, he would marry his cousin and wait to inherit hundreds of billions of Penguin's assets. That was not Ye Mingxuan's pursuit. A son-in-law had no future. He did not even have the freedom to have sex with a young lady or a celebrity outside. A man had to have his own career. Moreover, Ye Mingxuan was really here to form his own girl group, Harem Team One. Otherwise, why would he have to do a talent show like Creation 101?
After discussing the last major event and some details, the meeting was considered to have come to a successful end. As the chief producer and the founder of the girl group, Ye Mingxuan naturally did not need to do everything himself. There were more than a hundred people in the entire behind-the-scenes team, and the management level was about thirty people. If he had to do everything, why would he need these people? He was the boss.
Just as Zhao Huanke was about to leave, Ye Mingxuan stopped him and confirmed,"Is Lin Yun `er and her manager already at Penguin Building?”
