Chapter 297 – You Can’t Possibly Be My Prince(Teaser)
“Let me first say that the micro-movie I’m talking about now is a relatively short movie, approximately 10 to 60 minutes long. it has a complete story and all the elements of a movie, time, location…”
Du Yuanlei subconsciously finished the remaining elements, “characters, themes, and story plot.”
“That’s right, its characteristic means that it can’t be played in movie theaters. It needs to be distributed through online video websites and other platforms. It can be said to be a new product of the internet age,” Yang Yi nodded appreciatively.
“I happen to be working on a social networking site and want to use a micro-movie compet.i.tion as a promotion. Of course, it’s not to let you win the prize, but to have you help me shoot a micro-movie as a reference template for them. So, if you’re willing to shoot it, I’ll invest all the funds needed for the shoot and also pay for the remuneration of everyone involved, including you.”
What Yang Yi wanted to promote was naturally Weibo!
Now, after the intense promotion from famous stars, Weibo had nearly 10 million registered users and could be said to have shown its fangs in front of major social networking sites.
But this promotional effort was not enough. If Yang Yi’s sudden idea could be realized, he could launch a small video website similar to Snapshot. Such a website didn’t need to reach the scale of YouTube, it only needed to adapt to the usage logic of Weibo and a.s.sist in its growth.
Of course, Du Yuanlei still needed to listen to Yang Yi’s story.
