Chapter 242 The Start of the Online Mall

Taking advantage of the popularity of the single volume of "Inuyasha", the mall module of Guofeng Online has also officially opened to everyone.

Wei Qingxia is a girl from the acting department. Because of her good image, she was assigned to the photography team by Yang Wenjun. Her main job is to be in charge of the daily live broadcast of Guofeng.com.

Mu Bai, Zhang Hui and others only broadcast live occasionally, and Wei Qingxia is the anchor for most of the live broadcasts in the studio.

At the beginning, she felt that this job was not interesting, and she just talked about some trivial things around her.

But after working for a period of time, she found that her profile had become quite popular on Guofeng.com.

This made her a little surprised, and she became more attentive at work. For this reason, Yang Wenjun directly promoted her to be the leader of the camera team and enjoy the same treatment as the leader of the dubbing team.

The highest salaries in the studio are the four leaders of the two painting groups, the three-dimensional image group, and the architectural design group.

A little lower is the leader of the literature group, software group, and program group.

The lowest salaries are the leaders of the dubbing group and the camera group, as well as the leaders of several civilian groups such as the logistics group, the planning group, and the sales group.

It's low, but not by much.

Anyway, Wei Qingxia is very satisfied. If she doesn't have to go to class every day, but works in the studio, her salary is higher than her mother's.

When the mall module of the website was about to go online, Director Mu joked with her that she would become the richest team leader.

At that time, she didn't quite understand what Mu Bai meant, until Yang Wenjun told Wei Qingxia that she had a 2% commission for the products sold during the live broadcast.

It was only then that Wei Qingxia realized that she was indeed going to make a fortune. The products that the studio can sell now include "Mu Bai Ji" and "Xiang Wang Feng Yun Lu".

These two products are not selling very much, but the new product "Inuyasha" booklet, as well as "Xiangwang Fengyunlu" figure and "Inuyasha" figure released on the back of the wave of booklets, the sales volume is definitely not bad.

In order to make the first live broadcast about the mall go smoothly, Yang Wenjun specially brought Wei Qingxia to the mall to let her learn how the shopping guides in the mall introduce products.

Yang Wenjun also talked about her many feelings, after all, she was also a person who started a business in school back then.

Wei Qingxia is also very hardworking, constantly looking for sales feelings.

Finally came the day when the booklet of "Inuyasha" was released, and Wei Qingxia made full preparations. At the beginning of the live broadcast, she first introduced the mall module:
"You may have noticed that Guofeng.com has newly opened an online shopping mall, and the products sold in it are all physical products owned by the studio, which is obviously different from the download area.

"We can click on the mall to have a look, the most conspicuous of which is naturally the "Inuyasha" booklet we released today, what you buy is not an electronic version, but a physical book.

"I have a copy in my hand. You can take a look. Is the picture quality beautiful and the handwriting clear? And you can also see the quality of the printing, which is exactly the same as the one bought in the bookstore.

"I saw some people in the comments saying that online shopping books are easy to buy defective products, that is other online shopping malls, and our Guofeng.com will never have such a situation.

"Director Mu promises to everyone that if there is any quality problem, after contacting customer service, we will return the product unconditionally.

Wei Qingxia smiled and said: "Everyone knows that Guofeng.com is different from other websites. The most popular sections of our website have always been the discussion area and the live broadcast area.

"Everyone's supervision will allow us to avoid quality problems as much as possible, so as not to cause disturbances in the city, so everyone can place orders with confidence.

"Let's go back to the booklet of "Inuyasha". Since the mall has just launched, in order to accumulate popularity, the studio launched a sales campaign. Buy the booklet during the live broadcast and give away the electronic version of the first six chapters of "Inuyasha".

"Please note that only users who placed orders during the live broadcast can participate in this event.

"Physical version plus electronic version, now only ten yuan, we also free shipping! Interested friends, don't miss it!

"Let's take a look at this King Xiang doll again. As you can see, it's beautifully made and feels good. I'll take it closer and take a closer look. Let me tell you, this is definitely the best quality doll I've ever seen.

"If you have also played "Xiangwang Fengyunlu", why don't you buy some peripherals to show off to your friends?
"..."

After Wei Qingxia's hard-working live broadcast, the booklet of "Inuyasha" sold about [-] copies, and hundreds of figures were also sold.

Wei Qingxia roughly calculated that she could get more than 500 commissions for this live broadcast, which made her smile.

But she saw Director Mu's expression was a bit disappointed, obviously not satisfied with the sales.

……

Of course, Mu Bai was not satisfied. According to Bai Xiaoliang's statistics, the sales volume of "Inuyasha" in the bookstore has reached more than 4 copies in one morning, and only [-] copies have been sold after the live broadcast for so long.

It can be seen that everyone is still not able to accept the purchase mode of online shopping malls for cultural products.

Mu Bai thinks that we should intensify the activity, design some limited peripheral products such as "Inuyasha" trinkets, or choose a few good original paintings to print more, and buy books as gifts.

Let's pave the road to the mall first.

But this time the online sales of the "Inuyasha" booklet are a bit urgent. There are many things he didn't have time to arrange, so he can only think of where to start and where to fill in the omissions.

As for the booklet of "Inuyasha" sold in the online mall, Bai Xiaoliang generously gave Mu Bai the ex-factory price of two yuan per copy.

For the publishing house, the cost of the book itself is not high, and the main cost is actually the cost of copyright and distribution.

Naturally, Mu Bai can't ask for royalties for the booklets sold in the online mall.

Overall, the sales volume of the single volume of "Inuyasha" is still acceptable. Mu Bai estimates that it will probably exceed 50 copies on the first day. Calculating this, the total sales volume can be upwards of [-] copies.

This is definitely a big project for the studio to make money in June, and it is not in vain that it has been advertising in the most prominent position on Guofeng.com recently.

As for other figurines, posters and other figurines, they will not be bestsellers, and Mu Bai is not in a hurry, after all, there is no shelf life limit for these things.

In the morning Mu Bai paid attention to the release of the booklet of "Inuyasha", and in the afternoon he rushed to the program group to focus on the production of the animation short film.

With the hands-on guidance of the members of the comics team, the expressions of the animated characters made by the program team finally became natural.

This made Mu Bai heave a long sigh of relief. At the same time, Cao Baosen is already preparing for the soundtrack work. As soon as the animation is completed, he will immediately enter the work of soundtrack and editing.

Mu Bai was thinking about the approximate time when the animation short film will be completed, Fang Jiao came to remind him: "Tomorrow at 307:[-], we will take the exam "Theory of Music" at [-] on the third floor, remember not to be late."

Then Mu Bai remembered: "That's right, I still have an exam!"

"Director Mu won't, can't he not review it? I copied a copy of the notes for you, Director Mu hasn't read it?" Fang Jiao also worried for Mu Bai. A famous singer like Director Mu failed the exam no matter how , that would be a shame.

"I've seen it, I've seen it." Mu Bai hurriedly said, he also forgot whether he saw it twice or three times.

Originally, he was planning to look through his notes again, but then he thought that there were only a dozen hours left before the exam time, and it was too late to sharpen his guns before the battle, so he might as well not waste his energy at all.

So he went to continue to stare at the production of animated short films.

As Mu Bai expected, when he faced the test paper the next day, he was dumbfounded on the spot.

The next three days were spent in the exam, and Mu Bai stared blankly for three days.

Since the staff in the studio are basically students, the time for the exams is almost the same, which seriously affects the work progress of the studio.

It was not until two days after the exam that the animation short film was completed.

Now the animation short film has reached the most critical step, Mu Bai has to edit the short film according to the music of "Big Canopy".

For this, he made a lot of preparations, referred to a lot of MVs, and then used his knowledge about directors to analyze and learn from.

But after starting the editing, Mu Bai still couldn't make up his mind in many places, so he could only continue to learn from, analyze and think.

Sometimes we have to ask the original painting team to add some plots to make the plot smoother and more in line with the music of "The Big Canopy".

It has been a long time for Mu Bai, and he has not been anxious to the point of insomnia.

Painting is his old profession, and it has been going smoothly all the time. In terms of music, the system has been providing "finished products", and Mu Bai has never worried about this aspect.

Only in the profession of director, Mu Bai felt that his ability was not bad, but when he actually did it, he realized that it was much more difficult than he imagined.

Fortunately, he has a background in painting and a basic artistic background. He has seen a lot of film and television works in two lifetimes, and he has enough reference directions.

This makes Mu Bai uncertain in many places, but he also has a vague idea in his heart, it won't really be out of order, it's just that he has no confidence in his editing.

After three days of intense editing, Mu Bai finally completed the animation short film.

In the cheers of everyone, Mu Bai expressed a few words to everyone, and promised that the overtime pay and double salary during this period will be paid uniformly when the salary is paid in early July.

Then Mu Bai worked non-stop and sent the animated short film to Shesheng.

After watching it, Vice President Hou said, "The short film is okay."

Mu Bai then breathed a sigh of relief: "Vice President Hou, this is our studio's first animated short film. I would like to know what level our level has reached?"

Vice President Hou thought about it with a smile: "In my opinion, it's above average. It's the first production, and it's already very good to have such a high level."

"With Vice President Hou's evaluation, I feel relieved." Mu Bai leaned back in his chair: "When is Vice President Hou going to release it?"

"The sooner the better." Mu Bai is Gu Boying's "Queen Song", Vice President Hou did not hide it: "This month's 'new list' is extremely intense.

"Although I applied for more publicity channels, to my surprise, the effect was a drop in the bucket.

"The release of film and television singles may bring more popularity in a short period of time."
