Chapter 93: Wait and see what happens to KK Entertainment

Chapter 93

After returning to the office, Hulse sighed and planned to continue discussing the copyright purchase plan with the company's senior management.

He was stressed and angry.

The anger was not entirely due to the high offer from the Hanhai Galaxy. When their company sells out the exclusive copyright of a variety show, the price is generally not too low.

What Hels couldn't accept was the other party's attitude. If they didn't want to sell, then they didn't want to sell. Who was he showing that arrogant and indifferent face to?

Hels was indeed optimistic about the program, and so were the company's top executives. When the program was broadcast in the Hanhai Galaxy, it caused a huge sensation. If it was introduced to the Youlan Galaxy for production, the ratings would surely not be too bad.

While Hels was still sighing, the phone suddenly rang. The caller was a company executive with whom he had a good relationship.

"I'm not buying it." The other party said bluntly, "The price over there has doubled again. I'd be crazy to buy that crap!"

This senior executive has always been well-mannered and would not lose his temper over trivial matters, but now he could not contain his anger: "Let's think of a solution ourselves, brainstorm, and if it doesn't work, we can contact the Abyss Galaxy and the Black Eye Galaxy."

"The entertainment industry of our Blue Galaxy is a little behind, but it's not so behind that we can be humiliated by others, right? In the interstellar online writing competition held not long ago, our Blue Galaxy even won first place!"

"Star Web Writing Contest?"

"You haven't heard?"

Of course, Hulls knew about this. He had read relevant reports at the time. It seemed that...

Hels suddenly remembered that the online article his friend had just handed him was written by the author who won first place in the competition!

After hanging up the phone, he quickly started reading.

The production process of a variety show has always been complicated. Of course, it may seem easy from the audience's perspective, but the "ease" presented in front of the camera must have been polished and checked again and again by the program crew. It is not something that can be easily achieved by the imagination of an outsider.

Even the "good ideas" that the audience thinks are generally not feasible at all.

As Hels thought about this, he opened "The King of Draft".

Time is precious, and he hopes he can draw inspiration from this online article. If not, he will look for solutions elsewhere.

Just at this time, a variety show called "Super Idol" caught Hulls's eye.

Hels couldn't help but stand up.

His keen sense of producing variety shows over the years has made him realize that this model... will definitely attract audiences, especially young audiences.

The current variety show format of Blue Galaxy is almost a non-stop show of familiar stars, with few new faces. The audience must have gotten tired of it.

In addition, almost every young star in the entertainment industry has a large number of fans. Fans enthusiastically contribute votes for them in every vote and buy the products they endorse. Even for young stars who have just debuted, as long as a certain role touches their feelings, fans can also be enthusiastic.

The model of "Super Idol" can combine the two.

"Making stars!" muttered Hulls.

Although he had only read the serialized chapters of "The King of the Talent Show", Hulls seemed to be able to simulate the model and process of a talent show - each company must have a lot of stars who have failed to debut, right?

The brokerage companies try to get these young people into dramas and variety shows and match them with suitable roles, but the cost is probably a hundred times more than participating in a talent show.

The more Hulls looked at it, the more feasible it seemed.

Anyway, the situation can't be worse than it is now.

Hulls first searched on Star Network and found that the entry "King of the Talent Show" was even more popular than a variety show he had recently aired. Lin Kuang even had his own exclusive CP topic and fan group, and the enthusiasm of the fans was no less than that of real stars.

No wonder… He did see the trending search for “Lin Kuang” a while ago, and he thought it was a new star launched by some company.

It turns out to be a character in the novel.

Hulls thought again, the characters in the novels made the fans so passionate, what if they launched a real-life talent show?

The show hasn’t even started production yet, but Hulse is already looking forward to it.

…

[KK Entertainment has plans to purchase the copyright of "Super Iodol"? ? ]

[To be honest, I know every word here, and if they are put together...]

[Does the "Super Idol" here refer to the "Super Idol" in the Teriyaki Chicken Legs article? 】

[That's right, so I doubt whether the teriyaki chicken leg has unlocked some fortune tree skill. ]

[As a result, Teriyaki Chicken Legs has kept his identity well hidden until now, and no one knows who he is. ]

【＋1. 】

Lin Shu received the message: "..."

Carving Entertainment received the message: "..."

To a certain extent, Sculpture Entertainment has a very clear understanding of Lin Shu's ability to make money.

Subscriptions, copyrights, rewards... Among all the contracted authors of Sculpture Entertainment, Lin Shu is far ahead. One person is worth dozens of others, but Lin Shu can always bring rich profits to Sculpture Entertainment in places that Sculpture Entertainment can't imagine.

I have only seen the sale of film and television copyrights before, but I didn’t expect that variety show copyrights could also be sold.

The key is! The price quote is always higher and never lower!

The top management of Sculpture Entertainment didn't even have the heart to calculate the ratio of revenue related to Teriyaki Chicken Legs to Sculpture Entertainment's revenue, as that would make them look very incompetent.

Although——that is also true.

"Can this be sold?" Lin Shu was stunned.

Ever since he started writing, he had a very clear understanding of the financial resources of the interstellar people. Thinking about it now, he still underestimated it.

KK Entertainment acted quickly, and in the spirit of striking first, Hels thought that everything was settled and he could start production with peace of mind. However, he did not expect that a competitor would suddenly appear halfway.

Hels: “…”

It's outrageous.

But since he could discover the value of the article "King of the Talent Show", others would naturally discover it after KK Entertainment revealed its intentions.

In his heart, Hels silently blamed the guy who leaked the news. Everything hasn't been settled yet, so why was he in such a hurry to reveal it?

Later, Hels found out that the guy who leaked the information did not look favorably upon his "foolish behavior" of buying the copyright of online articles, and wanted to use the power of public opinion to force him to back off, and at the same time prove in front of the top management that he, Hels, was a fool.

Because of this, KK Entertainment paid 50% higher copyright fees than before.

Although - compared to the quotation from the Hanhai Galaxy, the price of cooperating with Sculpture Entertainment is much cheaper.

Teriyaki Chicken Legs has a large number of readers, which can also become the audience resources for the new variety show. In addition, after the new variety show is broadcast, the program team can also cooperate with Teriyaki Chicken Legs and move the real plot into the novel.

…

At this moment, the Hanhai Galaxy.

"No one from KK Entertainment is contacting us anymore?"

"No."

Qingbi Entertainment is an entertainment company in the Hanhai Galaxy that is responsible for the production and distribution of variety shows. It is limited to variety shows and does not involve other fields such as film and television.

The popularity of KK Entertainment's variety shows is declining, and so is Qingbi Entertainment? The competition within the Hanhai Galaxy is even more intense than that within the Youlan Galaxy.

However, Qingbi Entertainment has more variety show resources, and the variety show it aired previously was quite popular, which gave others the illusion that life was getting easier.

The people inside Qingbi Entertainment were extremely delighted about KK Entertainment's plan to purchase the copyright. Such a sucker is rare. Moreover, the variety show has already been aired and there is no point in keeping the copyright. It would be better to sell it for more money.

However, no matter how happy it is, Qingbi Entertainment still pretends to be superior and has no worries about sales. It is very pretentious and even plans to make a fortune by using KK Entertainment.

“Is it because our offer was too high?”

"Don't worry, KK Entertainment will definitely buy it. KK has already cancelled so many shows, and the ratings of the new shows are not very good. If they don't save the situation, the entire variety show department may be cancelled."

"As far as I know, KK Entertainment has also contacted the Black Eye Galaxy, but the cooperation was not reached. Everyone knows that KK is having a hard time right now, so we have to take advantage of the opportunity to cut some corners."

What Qingbi Entertainment wants is not only to make KK Entertainment buy the copyright at a high price, but also to make the other party act like a beggar and buy it willingly.

Now, no one can help KK Entertainment except Qingbi Entertainment.

"What if... they give up?"

"Impossible. Even if... KK Entertainment will suffer first." The person in charge of the negotiations at Qingbi Entertainment said confidently, "Before the negotiations, I had already figured out KK Entertainment's bottom line. They will not give in."

Hulls is indeed a hardliner, but when it comes to spending money, he still knows how to make choices.

Qingbi Entertainment sat there steadily, waiting for KK Entertainment to bow its head and make a request.

A day passed and there was no contact from KK Entertainment.

Three days passed and there was no contact from KK Entertainment.

A week has passed, and KK Entertainment still has no...

"That's impossible. Don't they plan to buy it?"

At this time, Qingbi Entertainment searched for information related to KK Entertainment and found out that KK Entertainment had actually bought the copyright for an online article.

"Huh? Are you crazy?" - This was Qingbi Entertainment's first reaction.

Afterwards, after confirming that KK Entertainment would no longer buy their copyright, the person in charge of the negotiations sneered: "Don't wait until it fails before coming back to us."

"KK Entertainment will negotiate with us again and increase the price by 50% based on the current offer."

KK Entertainment must be on the verge of death, so it's going crazy to buy the copyright of the online novel!

Qingbi Entertainment was almost waiting to see a joke as it watched the makeshift team of "Oh! My Idol" produced by KK Entertainment being set up, its rough process and stage design, and its unknown contestants...

Look at it suddenly having a sense of existence.

Seeing its popularity continue to soar, it soon became a phenomenal variety show in the Blue Galaxy.

After the first season was produced, there were also the second and third seasons, and in addition to the boy group version, a girl group version was also released.

Not only that, the groups introduced by the program team have all become popular, and many of the contestants have had smooth career paths. Their popularity has even surpassed the Blue Galaxy and has spread to other galaxies.

Even... a similar variety show appeared in their Hanhai Galaxy.

After a quick inquiry, Qingbi Entertainment found out that this was the copyright that a company in the Hanhai Galaxy bought from KK Entertainment.

Qingbi Entertainment: "..."

They were not simply angry. More importantly, due to the lack of KK Entertainment as a major buyer, Qingbi Entertainment could not make up for the funding gap. After that, several consecutive variety shows failed to make any splash, and they could only watch the losses continue until they fell into crisis.

It is worth mentioning that the person in charge of negotiations with KK Entertainment was also fired by Qingbi Entertainment.

He wanted to see the end of KK Entertainment, but in fact, he was the first to meet his end.
