Chapter 250: Chapter 234: Return on Investnt 1
“Do you write scripts too?”
Sister Lin Xuan looked at Lin Yuan and the more she looked, the more surprised she beca. Of course, Lin Yuan’s family knew about his movie’s success.
Since the Lin family now lived in a villa, they had a ho theater setup when they renovated, so Lin Xuan, her sister, and their mother naturally watched the movie together.
“Just good luck.”
Lin Yuan answered nonchalantly.
It was now the third week since the online release of “Flirting Scholar”.
From the third week on, the viewership of “Flirting Scholar” inevitably began to decrease.
As a result, the two websites hosting the movie have started to implent new strategies.
Such as limited-ti discount on demand, or buy one get one free activities, etc…
Of course, the costs are covered by the websites.
Either way, the two websites made quite a lot from this movie, so it was only natural to invest so money into promotions.
The advantage of this was that it could increase the total viewership of the film.
The effects were imdiate.
With the promotional discounts offered by the two websites, the viewership of “Flirting Scholar” quickly surged back up…
By the end of the fourth week, that is, the end of July.
This miraculous web blockbuster had garnered more than 40 million views!
Based on this trend, the final viewership of the film is bound to surpass 50 million!
The movie industry pays attention to the return on investnt.
The return on investnt for “Flirting Scholar” is roughly estimated to be over ten tis.
This is a record high for a web film!
Even for films screened in theaters, such a return rate is of the top tier!
In order to further stimulate the viewership of “Flirting Scholar”, both Catmill and Penguin Video, without prior arrangent, extended interview invitations to Xian Yu.
Lin Yuan declined.
Showcasing his face too often could lead to his downfall.
The people from Catmill and Penguin Video did not insist, it’s normal for people, even filmmakers, not to enjoy publicity.
To promote the film, they could invite the actors, as well as the director and producers.
Setting aside the video streaming platforms.
On the fifth week of the film’s launch, Lin Yuan went to the ninth floor of Starlight, which belongs to Mr. Lin.
“The representative is really talented!”
“The representative’s movie is so good!”
“The movie produced by the representative is so exciting!”
“Our departnt wholeheartedly supports the representative’s filmmaking!”

? ?
Upon entering the composition departnt.
The composers under him naturally took turns to heap praise on him.
Already accustod to all this, Lin Yuan smiled, and went into his office.
After entering the door.
Lin Yuan noticed many gifts on his desk, so large and small exquisite packages were simply placed on the floor because the desk was too full.
“They are all from the film crew.”
As Lin Yuan’s assistant, Gu Dong appeared right on ti.
She answered Lin Yuan’s questions: “Most of the gifts on the desk are from Producer Shen and Director Yi, and on the ground, the one on the left is from He Sheng, the one on the right is from Yu Xilu…and this…I’ve made a list for you.”
“Hmm.”
Lin Yuan glanced at the gift list.
Gu Dong was reliable, she had systematically noted down what each person had gifted, making it easy for Lin Yuan to understand at a glance.
While Lin Yuan was looking at the gift list, Gu Dong was looking at Lin Yuan, with a hint of admiration in her eyes.
Since getting to know Mr. Lin, it seed as though Mr. Lin could succeed in anything he did?
As of today, Mr. Lin had attained massive success even in crossover filmmaking!
Gu Dong couldn’t help but wonder…
Is there anything in this world that Mr. Lin can’t do?
This thought was of course a bit exaggerated.
However, having interacted with Lin Yuan for so long, Gu Dong did have this almost incredible feeling.
This even put a lot of pressure on Gu Dong.
If she was able to handle Lin Yuan’s assistant work with ease at the beginning, now, working for Mr. Lin, Gu Dong had gradually begun to feel like she was walking on thin ice.
That’s because Mr. Lin was too amazing!
So the more she understood Mr. Lin’s excellence, the more Gu Dong felt the heavy responsibility of being a small assistant.
Of course, while feeling the pressure, Gu Dong also found motivation.
Being Mr. Lin’s assistant was not only an honor for her but also a precious opportunity in her life.
She couldn’t allow herself to make mistakes, and she would have to complete Mr. Lin’s assistant work beautifully in the future!
Of course, Lin Yuan had no idea of his little assistant’s thoughts.
After looking at the list and roughly rembering who had given what gifts, Lin Yuan finally looked up and asked, “Could you do sothing for ?”
“Please tell .”
Gu Dong imdiately replied.
Lin Yuan thought for a mont and said, “Help find a young composer in our departnt who is promising. I’m thinking of training another student to compose music.”
Lin Yuan wanted to continue with the task of taking in students.
Recently, the System had reminded Lin Yuan that there was less than half a year left for his teaching task!
If Lin Yuan could not train three students in this ti, the Yang Zhongming character card would disappear.
Honestly speaking, the ti was tight.
Lin Yuan hated the idea of losing the Yang Zhongming character card, so he must hurry up with the task now, and there was no issue with him accepting so special thods for it.
“Okay!”
Gu Dong nodded.
The success of Xue Liang proved that Mr. Lin was really good at teaching students.
Just like the outside world, Gu Dong was also very curious, could Mr. Lin train a second Xue Liang?
After Gu Dong left.
Lin Yuan’s phone rang.
After he picked up, he heard an excited voice from YangFeng from the phone, “Congratulations to Teacher Chu Kuang, you have been awarded the first batch of GOAT Awards announced by the Literature and Art Association, the list has been published and many people are discussing it online!”
“Oh.”
It wasn’t unexpected for Lin Yuan, with “Ghost Blows Out the Light” as the foundation, it would be strange if he didn’t get this award.
YangFeng smiled and said, “Maybe to avoid controversy, they only announced the list and did not publish rankings…”
“Hmm.”
To Lin Yuan, it was enough to have received the GOAT award.
YangFeng did not mind Lin Yuan’s calm tone, this was human nature’s innate adaptability: “Teacher Chu Kuang, do you want to attend the award ceremony?”
Lin Yuan frowned, “Is attendance mandatory?”
YangFeng quickly said, “Not necessarily, whether you attend or not is up to you. If you need it, Silver Blue Books could send soone to pick up the award on your behalf, or you could designate soone to pick it up, preferably your agent…”
“Can you guys receive it on my behalf, and then mail it back to .”
I wonder, is the GOAT award trophy valuable?
After chatting for a bit, including the news that the second volu of “Ghost Blows Out the Light” had been successfully published, Lin Yuan hung up the phone.
Whether it’s interviews or awards ceremonies…
It seems like there have been a lot of occasions recently trying to get in the spotlight?
But there was one thing YangFeng said that reminded Lin Yuan.
Maybe he could find an agent to help him arrange and handle such occasions.
