I'm sorry, but you're confused, and you're making me very confused. Or I'm confused and you're confused also. All I know is I'm confused. And you.

Viewer (customer) pays $100 for some content. Of those 100, OF (infrastructure & service provider) takes $30 as an income and the remaining $70 goes to the content creator as income.

Profit is what's left from the income after you have paid your costs. The 30% OF takes is an income from which they will have to pay for things needed to run OF, and the 70% the content creators get is their income from which they have to pay for the things they need to create the content. Wages are included in the costs. What's left after paying bills, wages etc are the profits.
