Chapter 668: American New Rap

  Chapter 668 New American Rap

  Learning that Darren Xia, the founder and major shareholder of the company, came to the creative space, the person in charge of the place hurried over.

  Up to now, the tubing has established two creative spaces, in addition to the one in Los Angeles, there is another one in London.

After the launch of   Creative Space, the response has been very good, and it has been loved by video creators.

  In the creative space, there are green cloth studios, motion capture studios, dance rehearsal rooms...

  Video creators who meet certain fan requirements can use these equipment and venues for free, which greatly reduces the difficulty and cost of video shooting.

  And the creators have these equipment and venues, as well as professional guidance, the videos on the tubing are no longer the shoddy work of last year, and the high-volume videos are all much more refined.

  Xia Jingxing chatted with the person in charge of the place, mainly asking about the situation of video bloggers, the usage of venue and equipment, etc.

The person in charge told him that the occupancy is very hot, the space and equipment are not enough, and even the creative space has been forced to change the occupancy rules, from the direct entry in the past to the advance appointment, and the appointment has been scheduled to next month. .

  Because YouTube first introduced the advertising sharing agreement, YouTuber has become a profession.

Although there are not many full-time bloggers of this kind, a few thousand or tens of thousands of dollars a month is a very good income. It attracts many young people who want to be popular and make money when they want to make videos to join the video creation army. .

Most of these people died before leaving the school, but a small group of them broke out and became tail video bloggers. They lived a full and hungry life because the income from filming videos was not enough to cope with it. living expenses.

  These tail video bloggers, if they can’t stick to it, go back to work again.

   also persisted, gradually promoted to be a waist video blogger, and there will be opportunities to be promoted to a head video blogger in the future.

  The foreign girl once responded to Xia Jingxing's situation, saying that the income of video bloggers is too small, at least to become a waist, that is, a video blogger with hundreds of thousands of subscriptions to support herself.

Xia Jingxing did not have a good solution, because the advertising model has only been launched soon, advertisers and users need time to adapt, and the advertising technology needs to be optimized and made more accurate. When there is a higher input-output ratio , In order to attract more advertisers to join and more advertising budget.

  The current income of 500,000 subscribed video bloggers may only be equivalent to the income of 100,000 subscribed bloggers in 2020.

  From the perspective of creating a content ecosystem, this is a problem that must be solved—that is, finding ways to increase the income of video bloggers.

  Retired the person in charge of the creative space, Gao Lili, Shen Xinyi and Abra, led Xia Jingxing around the entire creative space.

  When Xia Jingxing came here last year, he was still on the construction site, and there was not a single video shooter.

  I walked all the way today, and all the dance studios and recording studios I saw were full.

  Lilith has 1,200 channels, that is, more than 1,200 video bloggers have signed up, and each channel has at least 10,000 subscriptions.

  These people are scattered all over the world, and most of them don’t go to the creative space in Los Angeles to shoot videos. Lilith is also stocking those bloggers.

  They are really focusing on cultivating dozens of head and waist bloggers, all of whom have hundreds of thousands to millions of subscriptions.

  There are more than a dozen contracted video bloggers present today. With the cooperation of Lilith's staff, they are distributed in various areas to shoot and produce videos.

  Xia Jingxing went to visit and how to shoot video.

  It’s definitely not comparable to filming blockbuster movies. There is no multi-camera shooting, usually one camera, single-camera shooting.

  Clothing, makeup, and props are also very simple, a bit like the shooting mode of San Fernando Valley, a cameraman, a lighting artist, a makeup artist, and then an actress.

  However, the tubing video usually lasts from ten to fifteen minutes. It doesn’t require many scenes, nor will you film those big scenes, because you can’t get back to the original and it’s not cost-effective.

  A simple living room with a red sofa. Two actors are sitting on the sofa filming a family sitcom. A man and a woman are acting as a couple. The dialogue is very funny.

  Xia Jingxing stood in the distance, watching with gusto, feeling a bit similar to the Spring Festival Gala sketch.

   "Boss Xia, how about it, this is our company's top card!" Gao Lili winked at the side.

  Xia Jingxing put her arms around her chest and smiled faintly: "Ha ha, do the audience like to watch this kind of Internet soap opera?"

  Korryeo said in an unpleasant manner: "What kind of soap opera? This is a boutique channel that we built with a lot of money. We also specially invited a gold screenwriter from Hollywood next door to write us a book every week.

  The hot news and current affairs of the past week should be mixed in the book, and then the actors will deduce them through dialogue, actions, expressions, or ridicule, or ridicule, or praise...

  The audience likes it so much, it's much more interesting than watching boring news. "

  Xia Jingxing smiled and gave a thumbs up, "Professional, it seems that you have worked hard this year, and you have also hired a gold screenwriter. What movies has he written?"

"Forehead……"

  Korryeo was stunned, and then sneered: “In fact, it was a student who had just graduated to break into Hollywood. We did not find a job, so we took him in.

  The main reason is that the company is too poor. When this round of financing is completed, I will definitely come for a shotgun. "

  Xia Jingxing is noncommittal.

  Everyone came to the next venue.

   A young black man with dirty braids and a height of 1.9 meters dressed up as hip-hop, wearing a large golden chain with a thick thumb and a golden watch, performing raps to the camera with various gestures, and there are several backing dancers behind him.

  Xia Jingxing watched it carefully and danced well, but the lyrics were yellow and violent.

   "Where is the great **** invited? New York underground music scene?"

  Korryeo clapped her hands, "Good eyesight, Brian is a famous underground rapper in New York, and now the prodigal son is turning back and intends to return to the rivers and lakes to promote his new song with the help of tubing.

  Waiting to make a famous name, in the future, we plan to give him a record and then sell peripherals. "

  Xia Jingxing said with a smile: "You have a lot of ideas, don't put all your hopes on the tubing."

   "That's for sure. Although YouTube has advertising revenue, I am more optimistic about the ability of YouTube to build Internet celebrities. As long as the people become popular, why can't they make money?"

  Xia Jingxing glanced at Gao Lili with admiration, and smiled, "You have this idea, you are right, you rely on oil pipes, but commercial realization is not limited to oil pipes."

  The black singer also finished recording the video at this time, and walked towards Goryeo and the others.

   "Wow... Lilith, dressed so beautifully today, must have been to some important meeting." The black tone was exaggerated, like a comedian.

Gao Lili was no stranger to this, and said with a smile: "Brian, has the video been recorded? This time the company will increase its promotional resources to allow more people to see this video. If it attracts the attention of the record company, it will be even better. All right."

   "Really? That's really good news."

  Black Brian also noticed Xia Jingxing standing next to him, and asked a little uncertainly: "Are you...Daren?"

  Xia Jingxing nodded. When he walked outside, he was generally not worried that Americans would recognize him, because foreigners were almost blind to Asians, but he did not expect that Xiao Hei would recognize him.

"Oh, the buyer, I actually saw my idol, Dai Lun, you are a CEO that I admire very much. You actually created a platform like YouTube, which is a platform that smashes the sky. I must write a song for it. you."

  Xia Jingxing wanted to laugh a little, but seeing Xiao Hei's seriousness, she endured it and went back.

   "That's awesome. No one has ever written a song to me. When you finish writing it, please send me a copy."

  Brian shook his head, "No need to post, I will sing it to you now."

  Under the surprised eyes of Xia Jingxing, Gao Lili, Shen Xinyi, and Abra, Brian covered his mouth, first came a prelude to a "puff puff beat", and only entered the subject after a long time.

  At the age of twenty, you will be promoted to the social emperor.

  Hello, China’s richest man, in a few years you will be the world’s richest man.

  Mr. Gates said, please don’t put too much pressure on him.

  Bruce hits America with his fists, you use social platforms to conquer the world.

   Genghis Khan’s scimitar is not as sharp as your code.

  Yeah yeah~

  ……
