Once Game Designer's sales exceeded three hundred thousand, it would mean that the game had profited again.
If its sales continued to rise and reached four to five hundred thousand, it would probably be able to earn back the money that Fish-Catching Internet Cafe and the short video had lost!
To Pei Qian, that would be like a bolt from the blue. It was extremely bad news!
Thus, Pei Qian had been keeping an eye on Game Designer's sales recently, praying that the game would not continue to become popular.
At this point, Pei Qian could not do anything about it.
The game had already been created. To maliciously change the game to trash was against the rules.
As for the little tricks and skirmishes … The players would only think that it was another performance art.
Pei Qian only felt one thing: it was extremely difficult!
He had to admit that although Teacher Qiao's video was full of nonsense, there was one thing that was right: being misunderstood was the fate of the speaker.
Pei Qian, as the speaker, was being misunderstood crazily. What's more, everyone was being misunderstood!
This fate made him want to vomit blood.
The others were celebrating the completion of the third season of Boss Pei's Daily Life.
"Brother Huang, what are your plans after this? Are you going to continue filming the fourth season? "Lu Mingliang asked expectantly.
He was addicted to acting as an intern in the show and wanted to continue acting in the sequel.
Huang Sibo smiled and said, "I'm not sure yet. However, according to Aili Island's generous offer, we should be able to recoup all our previous investments this season. We might even be able to earn back some profits.
"Since we have proven the value of Boss Pei's Daily Life's IP, we have two main considerations: we can either continue to dig deeper into this IP, or we can find a new direction.
"Of course, before we start work again, we plan to rest for half a month. After all, the workload during this period has been quite high. Everyone is very tired."
The more Pei Qian listened, the more he felt that something was amiss.
What was going on?
According to Aili Island's generous offer, they would be able to recoup all their investments this season? They might even be able to earn back some profits?
This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, causing Pei Qian to freeze.
They had invested a million yuan in the beginning!
They had not even accepted a single sponsored partnership; how could they recoup all their investments? Even if this small website had an incentive plan, they could not possibly earn that much!
"Did you accept a low-end sponsored partnership?" Pei Qian was instantly alarmed.
Huang Sibo smiled. "No, Boss Pei."
"I've told you before that Aili Island has an incentive program for video creators. This is different from Potato Web."
"Incentive plan … ten thousand clicks would only cost 15 to 30 yuan, right?" Pei Qian was even more confused.
The incentive plan was for the entire network, so it was impossible to set the price tag very high. Generally speaking, a video with 10,000 views would only earn 15 to 30 yuan. A video with a million views would only earn about 2,000 yuan.
Of course, some websites' incentive plans would weight this number. For example, if the number exceeded one million, two million, or three million, the money would increase for every ten thousand clicks, but it would not be too high.
For a show like Boss Pei's Daily Life, there were only ten episodes in a season. At most, it would earn thirty to fifty thousand yuan. It was impossible for it to earn more.
No matter how you looked at it, it was still a far cry from an investment of one million!
Huang Sibo smiled and shook his head, explaining in detail.
"Boss Pei, you don't know about this.
"The incentive plan is open to all video creators."
"However, considering the influence of the Boss Pei's Daily Life series on the entire network, we did not approach Aili Island as ordinary creators.
"Aili Island spent a huge sum of money to buy outstanding exclusive web series for marketing purposes. The relevant splitting rules were very generous.
"The higher-ups of Aili Island felt that such short videos would be the future direction of video development. The future was very good. That was why they made an exception and raised our B rating to A rating.
"According to the rules, for A-rated web series, as long as a single account clicks for more than six minutes per episode, it would be considered a valid click. Each valid click would earn 0.4 yuan!
"Of course, because our videos are very short and only take about a minute, we lowered the standard. As long as a click for more than thirty seconds per episode, it would be considered a valid click. However, the splitting was also lowered. Each valid click would earn 0.2 yuan.
"In other words, as long as we can ensure that each of the ten episodes in the third season has a million valid clicks, we would earn about two million yuan!
"Even after deducting various expenses and taxes, we would still earn!
"This is mainly due to your correct strategy, Boss Pei! It's because we rejected those low-end sponsored partnerships that we were able to turn Boss Pei's Daily Life into an elite series with extremely high IP value. That's why we were able to obtain such a high rating on Aili Island and receive such generous payout conditions! "
"All of this is inseparable from your foresight!"
Pei Qian was stunned.
Each valid click was 0.2 yuan? Wouldn't ten thousand clicks be two thousand yuan?
That was a hundred times more than ordinary video incentive plans!
Pei Qian had not expected that.
Video websites would indeed fork out a huge sum of money to buy the rights or exclusive broadcasting rights of popular series and variety shows. At the same time, they would bundle the rights with members to increase the competitiveness of the website.
Copyright was the moat of video websites. Many websites burned money in this area.
However, Pei Qian had not expected an ordinary web series like Boss Pei's Daily Life to receive such treatment!
Normally, there would be a quota for such ABCD ratings. There would be many restrictions, and it would be very strict. Only exceptional series would have a chance.
What's more, to get a rating, one would have to sign an exclusive broadcasting agreement with the website.
That way, exclusive broadcasting would not be a one-time buyout. Instead, they would split the profits based on the popularity of the video. To the website and creator, this method was more reliable and could reduce risks.
It was probably because this website called Aili Island had decided to burn money and the higher-ups there had taken a liking to Boss Pei's Daily Life. That was why this was happening!
"Tonight at 8 pm, our third season will be airing on Aili Island. Everyone, please pay attention. It should be quite lively then." Huang Sibo's tone was filled with pride.
"Alright, alright. We will definitely support it!"
"I'll go and post the first bullet screen comment!"
Everyone was excited.
Pei Qian was panicking. He felt that he should go and take a look as well.
"What's the website for I-Site?" Pei Qian asked.
"Oh, it's this." Huang Sibo tapped on his cell phone a few times and showed the website to Pei Qian.
There was a string of English words on it.
“”！
Pei Qian was shocked.
This …
Wasn't this f * cking Bilibili upside down?!
