"Mr. Shao has never purchased TV dramas from other companies, so I dare not say whether he would be willing to make an exception for you."
Sitting in the car, Mr. Jin Ming was somewhat gloating. "You dare to make a TV series without consulting anyone. If they accept your film, you'll be in for a loss."
“I’m at a disadvantage, but you’re not much better off, Uncle.”
Lin Jingyu smiled and said, "Besides, Uncle, if you personally go, people won't give you face. You'll be the one who loses face, okay?"
Even if I lose money, it's just a small financial loss; it's not like I can't afford to lose.
So, if the film doesn't sell, you won't be happy either.
"You girl."
Mr. Jin Ming was both amused and exasperated.
Seeing her confident look, he shook his head helplessly, "I didn't expect you to be such a scoundrel."
"It's all thanks to your excellent teaching, Uncle!"
"Girl, there's no need to shift the blame like that."
"I'm not trying to shift the blame, I'm just telling the truth."
...
The two bantered all the way to Shaw Brothers Studio.
With Mr. Jin Ming as a living example of success, the two quickly arrived at his office.
He wasn't surprised when he learned the purpose of their visit.
After all, every move of Hongyao Film and Television Company was under their watchful eyes.
It was within his expectations that the TV series would be brought to him.
"Miss Lin, my TV station can broadcast your film."
Grandpa Shao got straight to the point, without beating around the bush, "But the price will definitely not be high, and I can only pay a portion."
If the audience accepts this drama, I can raise the price. If the drama doesn't attract many viewers, please understand, my company cannot operate at a loss.
"I can accept Mr. Shao's proposal."
Lin Jingyu did not feel that the other party was bullying her.
After all, they agreed to buy the film without even watching it.
As for the price, it's impossible to offer a high one; we can only say that we'll let our strength speak for itself.
As long as the viewership ratings go up, advertisers will be willing to invest, and he'll be willing to offer a good price.
Of course, we can't just believe whatever people say.
Lin Jingyu added, "However, I also have a suggestion. I wonder if Mr. Shao would be willing to listen to me for a moment."
Mr. Shao nodded, "Miss Lin, please speak frankly."
"I know that TV dramas are judged by their ratings."
Lin Jingyu stated her plan, "Mr. Shao, could you please set a ratings tier? We'll then set prices based on those ratings tiers. What do you think, Mr. Shao?"
"Establish a ratings tier system?"
Mr. Shao was a business genius and immediately understood what she meant. "You mean we should set a price if the ratings break 1, another price if it breaks 2, and another price if it breaks 3? If we can break the ratings we set, the price will have to be adjusted again, is that what you mean?"
"Yes."
Lin Jingyu smiled sweetly, "I wonder if Mr. Shao would be willing to play with the little girl for a while."
"What do you mean 'just playing around'? You think you can take me for granted?"
Mr. Shao chuckled and said, "But I've never met such an interesting and talented junior as you before. This time, I'll follow your lead and we'll play a new game."
He was indeed intrigued by Lin Jingyu's suggestion.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "If you break through to the top one, I'll give you 10,000 per episode; if you break through to the top two, I'll give you 25,000 per episode; if you break through to the top three, I'll give you 50,000 per episode."
If it breaks 5, I'll give you 80,000 per episode. If your show can break my company's record of breaking 8, I'll give you 150,000 per episode.
"What do you think of this price, Miss Lin?"
