Pan Li felt that Xu Mei was simply crazy.
This is what it means that after being treated harshly all the time, you are suddenly treated preferentially, but you still don’t feel confident?
However, Xu Mei pretended to be well-behaved in front of Mr. Guan, and had a gloomy look in front of Pan Li. Seeing that Mr. Guan was being polite to Xu Mei again, Pan Li did not dare to disobey Xu Mei.
Pan Li tried her best to find out, but the news she got was that the copyright fee had not been negotiated.
Although Xu Mei still had doubts, since everyone said so, she felt that she was overthinking it.
That’s right.
It is said that God is fair. Li Mengjiao has been lucky so many times, and finally it is her turn to be lucky.
Xu Mei put aside her worries and began to look forward to the broadcast of "Emerald Forest".
Maybe because her mood improved, Xu Mei was able to sleep well at night.
People are in high spirits when good things happen. Xu Mei has new energy, and Cao Shao, who has been increasingly cold towards her recently, has also warmed up a little.
Young Master Cao encountered many setbacks with Li Mengjiao. Yuan Fenghui was different from Liang Dan. Liang Dan didn't care who Xu Mei dated, but Yuan Fenghui kept a close eye on Li Mengjiao. Not to mention a playboy like Young Master Cao, even a male mosquito with bad intentions couldn't fly around Li Mengjiao and buzz around her.
Li Mengjiao is Yuan Fenghui's most important "career" and the superstar that Yuan Fenghui wants to create. Someone wants to destroy Li Mengjiao's star path, which is as serious as blowing up Yuan Fenghui's house... No, it's worse than blowing up the house. If the house is blown up, you can buy a new one, but it should be said that it is as bad as digging up Yuan Fenghui's ancestral grave!
Everyone in the general company was happy, except Zhang Yangning who was a little nervous.
We have already informed Teacher Yuan, so why did "Emerald Forest" get the release date scheduled first?
Zhang Yangning didn't believe that Yuan Fenghui was only capable of this.
But Yuan Fenghui may have other plans.
Maybe other TV stations offered higher prices, and Yuan Fenghui didn’t want to sell it to Hunan Satellite TV at a low price!
Regardless, Zhang Yangning achieved his goal, and Yuan Fenghui clearly acknowledged Zhang Yangning's favor. When this favor would be repaid depended on what Zhang Yangning wanted. Zhang Yangning wasn't in a rush right now, so he'd wait and see how the situation unfolded.
Even though Mr. Guan's company has too many resources and too little resources, it has the support of Hunan Satellite TV and is indeed focusing on the record market.
Although Tianjiao is good, it is a newly established film and television company. Zhang Yangning is afraid that if he switches jobs there, he still won't be able to get any record resources.
Unlike Xu Mei, Zhang Yangning has no interest in filming. Her original intention was to release a record and make the music she likes, and she still has that idea now.
If Yuan Fenghui could guarantee Zhang Yangning the frequency of releasing records, Zhang Yangning would rather pay the penalty himself and run away with Yuan Fenghui.
Let's wait a little longer.
Zhang Yangning advised himself this way.
Now is not the best time.
Besides, the penalty for breach of contract is indeed very expensive, and President Guan doesn’t think much of her, so why should she let the company make so much money!
Among the players signed last year, more than one had similar ideas to Zhang Yangning, but none of them had Zhang Yangning's courage and ability to take action. If nothing unexpected happens, they will waste a few years of their youth in Mr. Guan's company and have to accept the fact that they are ordinary people.
This is the cruelest fact in the entertainment industry. It is rare to become famous. Both strength and luck are indispensable. Many people think that they are the lucky one among thousands, but in fact they are just the foil of the chosen one!
…
"You want exclusive broadcasting rights?"
Hunan Provincial TV is quite smart.
When Wen Ying heard the news from Li Mengjiao, she was actually not surprised.
The exclusive broadcasting rights for TV dramas seem to have started to rise this year.
This was the year when mainland TV dramas, or rather satellite TV stations, began to reshuffle their share of viewership. Wealthy TV stations could pay high prices for quality dramas, which, with high ratings and commanding high advertising fees, naturally gave them more budget to invest in new dramas. With high-quality dramas airing year after year, viewers became accustomed to sticking with the station, and they also became receptive to other programs, fostering loyalty.
Rich TV stations are in a positive cycle, while poor TV stations are in a vicious cycle. They cannot bid enough to get good dramas, and gradually lose their audience share. The audience has no expectations, and will quickly change channels if they accidentally press the remote control to select a channel.
To judge a drama by its quality, you need to look at the production company, the leading actors, and the screenwriter.
Of course, there are still dramas whose ratings have failed even though TV stations have bought the exclusive broadcasting rights at high prices. There are also cases where some dramas that TV stations did not spend much money to buy have huge ratings. It is impossible to judge such ratings dark horses in advance.
When Wen Ying thought about this, her mood suddenly became a little subtle.
If she is asked to be a plagiarist, she will not be able to live up to her own moral standards.
But she actually remembers quite a few dramas that will be huge hits in the future. If she has some spare money and can get in touch with the producers, then why not invest in them?
She is not greedy. She just eats the soup while others eat the meat.
Wen Ying remembered this and asked Li Mengjiao, "Exclusive broadcast rights are no problem. How much will Director Fan pay?"
"Director Fan made the number three, then the number five. It was so fast I almost couldn't see it clearly!"
35 million?
To be honest, Director Fan’s price is not low.
"The Princess' New Clothes" has only 28 episodes in total, and the production cost of each episode is 650,000 yuan. The total cost of filming is 18.2 million yuan. At 35 million yuan, Tianjiao's first drama will almost make a profit of half. Wen Ying calculated that she invested 500,000 yuan and felt that she could definitely get a house in Shanghai... But Director Fan was willing to give 35 million yuan for the first time. Only a fool would agree to it. This shows that the upper limit of film purchases that Hunan Satellite TV can accept is definitely more than 35 million!
The production cost of 650,000 per episode is known to Tianjiao executives and investors like Wen Ying. They have always announced that the production cost of a single episode is as high as one million. Then the 35 million offered by Hunan Satellite TV for the exclusive broadcast rights is a bit low!
Wen Ying's heart was pounding.
"Did Hunan TV say it wanted to buy out the company for a few years?"
"……ah?"
Li Mengjiao was completely confused.
The exclusive broadcasting rights were sold all at once to Hunan Satellite TV.
No matter how inflated Li Mengjiao is, she doesn't think her first TV series can be compared with classic dramas like "Journey to the West" and "New White Snake", which are rebroadcast every winter and summer vacation.
"Forget it, I won't talk to you. Just do what you need to do. I'll go talk to Teacher Yuan."
Not only must there be a time limit, but the right to broadcast online must also be retained.
In 2005, the distribution of TV dramas basically relied on pirated discs in addition to TV broadcasts. This was mainly due to the limitation of Internet speed. It was too slow to download resources from the Internet for an episode of a TV series, and no platform could support smooth online playback. But a few years later, everyone watched TV series online, first on computers, and later on mobile phones and tablets. Some TV dramas were not broadcast on TV stations at all, and they focused on online platforms from the beginning of filming. Not many film and television companies pay attention to the online broadcasting rights now, but since Wen Ying knew about it, she would not let Yuan Fenghui distribute the copyright of this part casually!
Wen Ying's mind was full of the news that her Shanghai river view apartment was coming back. She excitedly went to find Yuan Fenghui to discuss strategy and had no time to think about the lawsuit. However, the editorial department of Aige received a court summons - it was about the termination of the contract with a newcomer. The editorial department did not take it seriously. At most, the attitude was a bit intense this time. Being sued by the author was really the first time for the magazine!
