On June 21, the documentary "Breaking the Cocoon into a Butterfly" filmed by Feihuang Studio was officially released on the Ally Island website!

As a documentary, "Breaking the Cocoon into a Butterfly" did not implant any advertisements, nor did it get any special share agreements for any website.

If we estimate according to the regular incentive plan of Ailey Island, even if the playback volume exceeds one million, the income will be only a few thousand yuan, which can be said to be a drop in the bucket.

Therefore, Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce also almost stopped this idea and just thought it was to use love to generate electricity.

Since Feihuang Studio has released the short video series "People's Daily Life" before and has already gained a large number of fans, this documentary immediately attracted widespread attention as soon as it was released!

In the video, Li Zhengwei faces the camera and tells his thoughts over the years.

"After my dad left, I kicked the door open, ran to the Magic City alone, and started my career."

"Recalling now, I don't regret this choice. I think I was born for e-sports. If I go out to work step by step, get married and have children, I'm afraid I will spend my whole life in regret."

"I am not like those second generations born with a golden spoon in my mouth. I have bad luck and were born in a poor family. But from another perspective, I am also lucky. I chose the career I like and made a name for myself."

“But I don’t recommend that kids go my way.”

"After I became famous in playing careers, many people would ask me questions about playing careers."

“My answers are the same:”

"If you really have decided, then you won't come to ask me this question. You will kick the door and leave just like me at the beginning, and will always believe it in the future. This is my dream and I will fight for it for the rest of my life."

"If you need my advice to make up your mind, then my advice is to first figure out one thing: are you afraid of learning and want to escape it; or do you really understand the price you have to pay to become a professional player?"

...

Soon, a large number of players left messages appeared in the comment section of the video.

"sofa!"

"I also said, why doesn't Feihuang Studio shoot "President Pei's Daily Life" anymore? It turns out that it's a big move!"

"This documentary looks so grand, big production!"

"It turned out to be my favorite documentary of professional players, and I must support it!"

"I didn't expect that professional players' lives are so hard... It's too miserable to kick the door and play professionally. Fortunately, my parents recognized it after the results were achieved."

"Every word from Brother Li is very sincere."

"This documentary is really meaningful. I have a younger brother who has poor academic performance. He skips classes and plays games online every day, and yells to go to the profession. I think Brother Li is right. He doesn't really love it, nor has he considered whether he has this talent, but just to escape."

"Yes, this documentary is not just promoting passionate, struggle, and e-sports spirit. These have been filmed badly. For young people, this is actually a misleading point. What's valuable about this documentary is that it also reflects the hardships and sadness of this industry, especially letting us know that there are so many professional players who have not played out, which can be said to be very objective."

"I didn't expect Feihuang Studio to polish such practical content, support!"

The player comments below the video are simply praised!

"Breaking the Cocoon into a Butterfly" quickly entered the popularity list of the game partition, and then went on the homepage of Ally Island, with its popularity remaining high!

June 23.

In the Moyu Internet Cafe, Pei Qian turned off the documentary video on his mobile phone, took a sip of the coffee in front of him, and temporarily let go of his heart that had been hanging.

"Huh... the style of painting has finally been normal."

"It's really not easy to make money!"

"Breaking the Cocoon into a Butterfly" has been released for three days. During these three days, Pei Qian was simply trembling.

He was afraid that Huang Sibo would suddenly call without warning and said, "Mr. Pei, the documentary has made another profit!"

Fortunately, similar plots did not happen.

Pei Qian repeatedly confirmed that although "Breaking the Cocoon and Being a Butterfly" achieved nearly 2 million views in three days, ranking among the top three in the entire site, it did not bring any profit.

If calculated according to the incentive plan, the final profit of this video is only a few thousand yuan, which is a drop in the bucket.

This is exactly in line with Pei Qian's previous estimates.

"Good, I have gained valuable experience in losses."

"Facts have proved that making such a documentary that doesn't make money is indeed a good choice."

"I feel like I can continue to invest money in Feihuang Studio."

Pei Qian suddenly discovered that after the Moyu Internet Cafe, he seemed to have found another good way to lose money.

That's a film that is very popular!

After so many failures, Pei Qian has realized a problem, that is, the loss is not as simple as he imagined.

The system has many restrictions and requirements, which is to prevent Pei Qian from maliciously creating losses. For example, the system stipulates that it cannot be used to make shoddy products, and inferior products are used as good products. The games they make must have profit points, etc.

In other words, the products launched by Pei Qian must be of high quality and cannot be deliberately messed up.

But now Pei Qian realized one thing: in the systematic judgment rules, "high-quality" obviously not only refers to making money, but also includes reputation!

Documentaries like "Breaking Out of the Cocoon" have a very low possibility of recovering costs, but the system has not stopped them.

Including Pei Qian, the possibility of losing money is very high, and the system has not stopped it.

This shows that in the system's judgment, "reputation of reputation" is also a very important indicator. As long as you can obtain enough and good reputation, the system will also recognize this product and will not think that it is Pei Qian's intentional loss.

Pei Qian vaguely felt this before, but he did not dig deeper, mainly because the profit methods of games and film and television are different.

In the gaming field, creating a good reputation often means high sales. Under the premise that the system mandatory requirements for profit points to be added, the possibility of losing money from high reputation games is extremely small.

Although there are also games that are popular but not popular in history, compared to movies, there are too fewer numbers.

But the videos are different. No matter how good the reputation and the high number of views are, they may still not be able to be monetized, such as this documentary.

"So, as long as I continue to let Feihuang Studio shoot these popular movies, I can create losses stably!"

Pei Qian instantly found the future development direction of Feihuang Studio.

I will see Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce again next time, and find a way to fool them so that they can never return to the documentary road, and they can have a stable loss. How great!

However, Huang Sibo and the others will not shoot e-sports themes again next time. What should they do for specific shots?

There is still the last week before the settlement, and there can be no unpublished products.

In other words, Pei Qian doesn’t have much to do now, so he can only spend money on a sudden rush while praying that things will not change.

Pei Qian looked at the system funds and was currently in a loss state.

"What should be done is almost done. The question now is how to maintain this loss state."
Chapter completed!
