Thank you to Radish Sister for the 5.88 yuan reward again, and I'd like to say it once more: please collect and recommend this book, hoping that friends who like this book will leave their collection behind, thank you everyone!
The final broadcast date of "Jade Dynasty" is scheduled for June 30th.
Every night from 8:00-10:00 pm, broadcast nationwide in two episodes back-to-back.
Considering the audience of the TV series, this is also the best time slot that the TV station can provide. At that time, students will be on vacation and naturally have plenty of free time to watch TV at home.
Although he didn't need to participate in the pre-broadcast promotional activities, Ye Sumang didn't let himself idle away. Previously, he had raised questions about Harvard University's psychology department regarding the 'six degrees of separation theory', but hadn't received attention from the professors, and instead was discovered by a student named Mark.
The two exchanged emails to validate the possibility of this theory, and Ye also shared with Mark his idea of building a social networking site based on the "six degrees of separation" theory. To their surprise, Mark had the same idea, and they immediately clicked.
With the help of Ye Su Mang's funding, Mark has established a small social networking site in his own school within half a year, and the effect is also very good. Because of this social networking site, many classmates in the school have found that their interpersonal network has become wider.
This excellent result also makes Ye Sumang more determined to make this website stronger and better, hopefully covering the whole world.
In the bedroom, Ye Sumang was installing a video software sent by Mark on her computer, because the cost of cross-country long-distance calls was quite high and emails couldn't be sent and received in time.
After installation was complete, Ye Sumang logged into the account Marc had prepared for him and turned on the video.
"Hey, Yeh!" The video had just lit up when Mark gave a warm and typical American greeting.
"Mark, hello!" Ye Sumang looked at the screen in the middle and suddenly popped up Mark's long face, also slightly surprised, smiled and waved his hand. Ye Sumang began to test the function of this software. For this video call, it was still his first time, so he felt very curious about everything.
"How's the TV series shoot going?" Mark asked as Ye Sumang was familiarizing himself with the software, knowing that he was a director by profession.
"Not bad, it's about to be broadcast nationwide in Huaxia! I hope we can achieve good results at that time." Ye Sumang said with a smile.
At this moment, he is indeed in a good mood. His first TV series can go on air, which is a great affirmation for him.
"GOOD! I knew you were a genius!" Upon hearing the news, Mark let out an exaggerated yell and stuck his thumb up at the camera, for a moment all Su Man Ye saw was the clear fingerprint on Mark's thumb.
"Don't always talk about me, how's your website?" Ye Sumang asked with a smile.
"Oh, don't even mention it!" Mark sighed and said: "Recently, the website's traffic has suddenly increased. Every day, as soon as I open my eyes, the first thing I need to do is no longer washing my face or brushing my teeth, but opening the computer to maintain the website, maintaining it again and again. I feel like my daily routine has been completely messed up."
Although he complained, Mark's face still had a hint of pride, obviously the results obtained by the website made him very satisfied, and he also became a star figure in several nearby universities because of this website, recently living a carefree life.
"Can't we just hire someone else to do the website maintenance?" Yeshu Meng asked in puzzlement after hearing Mark's complaint.
"I don't have money!" Mark got straight to the point: "Although you gave me $10,000 and I also took out my own savings, all of these have been used to purchase servers, domain names and set up websites. If I hire employees now, I will really go bankrupt."
Mark also helplessly shrugged his shoulders at this point.
"I really hope to see you sleeping on the streets one day, I think that way Chen will definitely abandon you." Ye Sumang joked.
Chen is a Chinese girl Mark has just pursued, looking ordinary and not tall, but Mark likes her very much. Because of the same yellow skin tone, Chen and Ye Sumang are also familiar with each other, so whenever Ye Sumang has nothing to do, he is willing to tease him with Mark's new girlfriend.
As expected, Mark heard Ye Sumang say that his girlfriend would abandon him and suddenly became anxious.
"NO NO NO, Chen is a good girl, if I really go bankrupt, she will definitely stand by me!" Mark shook his finger at the camera very seriously.
"Maybe!" Ye Sumang replied ambiguously, looking at Mark who was already anxiously grabbing his hair across from him. Suddenly, he spoke up again: "How about we establish a company? I can provide the funding!"
"Company?" Mark suddenly stopped what he was doing and stared intently at Ye Sumang.
"That's right, you see now our website has achieved very good results, why not make it bigger and stronger? I happen to have a part of the funds available now, we can completely open a small online company, specializing in operating this website!" Ye Sumeng said seriously.
This idea had actually been on Ye Sumang's mind for a long time, and over the past six months, he had gained a certain understanding of Mark's personality, feeling that they really did have a lot in common and the idea of cooperation was becoming more and more profound.
So when Mark mentioned today that the website can't be expanded due to funding issues, Ye Sumang felt it was time to bring up her own ideas.
As expected, Ye Su Mang's words immediately got Mark's approval.
"That's awesome! My dream is to be the second Bill Gates! Starting a business in college is just perfect, if you're willing to provide me with funding, I'll drop out right now and focus on running the company!" Mark excitedly kept kissing the camera lens, his red lips filling the entire screen. Ye Su Mang immediately shut off the monitor without hesitation.
"Mark, if you don't take your thick lips away, I'll cancel my previous decision!"
"Alright, alright, Ye, everything is up to you."
Yeshu Mang heard this and reopened the monitor. At this moment, Mark was sitting upright, transformed into a well-behaved student.
Ye Su Mang didn't have a lot of capital on hand. After setting up his film and television company, he only had about 2 million RMB left.
However, in the past six months, he hasn't wasted a single penny and has even earned some money by investing in small projects. As a result, the funds available to Mark are approximately $300,000.
Three million is not a lot, but for Mark now, it's already a huge sum of money. With this money, the social networking site he and Eduardo conceived can finally go online and operate on the Internet, rather than being confined to just a few colleges.
As a regular company, it must also involve the issue of benefit distribution. Even close brothers have to make clear accounts, Mark, as the website's manager and technical supporter, occupies thirty percent of the total shares, while Ye Sumang occupies seventy percent of the new company's equity due to providing creativity and capital.
With the signing of a one-page electronic contract, $300,000 in funding simultaneously arrived in Mark's account and the social networking site named "Facebook" was officially launched.
Unlike Ye Su Mang who is busy with her own affairs, Cai Yi Nong has been really busy promoting the TV series recently. She has almost run through all the newspapers, magazines and media she knows, and most of her sleep time is spent on planes.
However, all these efforts were not in vain. For a time, many newspapers and magazines reported the news that "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" was about to be released, and this message also received an extremely strong response from gamers...
