Chapter 153: Income Arrived, Boss Wei Holds a Celebration Banquet



Due to the restriction of "one drama, four stars", that is, one drama can appear on at most four satellite TV stations at the same time, the broadcast of "My Love from the Star" is still mainly carried out by local stations.

According to a rough estimate by Sohu.com, a total of 14 TV stations broadcast "My Love from the Star" after the Spring Festival.

Among them, there are five national satellite TV stations, two of which are prime-time (8pm), two are mid-prime (10pm), and two are daytime.

The reason why there is one more is that Sichuan Satellite TV not only broadcasts it during the day, but also at night, and the audience watches Wei Yang and Fan Xiaopang being affectionate on TV all day long.

This is also a common problem of many TV stations. They will try their best to make the most of a TV series.

Sichuan Satellite TV is a typical example, especially in the daytime slot, where there are often no changes to the series for several months.

Other satellite TV stations, such as the one in Shandong Province, also prefer "Crossing the Guandong", "Parents' Love" and "My Mother Tian Xiaocao". The satellite TV in Anhui Province prefers old Hong Kong and Taiwan dramas, and they broadcast "The Deer and the Cauldron" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" every now and then.

Some people are sick of watching it, but some viewers love watching it and never get tired of it. If you don't let it go, they will call to complain.

Local TV stations do not have so many concerns. There are nine TV stations in total, covering Shandong Province, Sichuan Province, Anhui Province, Northwest China, Northeast China and other regions.

Theoretically, as long as you have satellite TV or cable TV at home, you can't escape from watching "My Love from the Star" all day long.

Before this, the only national blockbusters that could reach this level were probably "Bright Sword" and "Wulin Waijia".

The rebroadcast rate of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" is also very high. From its first online broadcast to the present, which has been more than half a year, it has been rebroadcast at least 40 times, and its popularity has not diminished to this day.

Thanks to these two dramas, Wei Yangnai has appeared in front of the audience many times, and his position as one of the new four little fresh meat students is as stable as a rock.

But for Wei Yang, popularity is only one aspect; he is more concerned about real money.

The start of the second round of broadcasting rights and the negotiation of the third round of broadcasting rights indicate that most of the revenue from "My Love from the Star" has been received, and the crew has also begun to divide the revenue thoroughly.

The first round of broadcasting was 48.6 million, the exclusive online broadcast rights were 21 million, the overseas copyrights in Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia, etc. totaled over 1,000, the patch ads, DVD copyrights, etc. were about 10 million, the second and third rounds were about 15 to 20 million, and there were some peripheral licensing fees, which were also about several million...

All these, plus some miscellaneous expenses, "My Love from the Star" can probably earn around 120 million yuan.

Moreover, this is only the total income at present. Although there will be no big income in the future, the income from various copyright authorizations will be shared, or there will be a time limit, and they can be sold again when they expire.

The individual benefits are not numerous, but when added together, they add up over time and are quite substantial.

Leaving aside the subsequent profits, the total revenue of 120 million surprised several investors.

You know, from the above-mentioned types of income, it can be seen that most TV dramas in the industry cannot reap so much revenue.

At the very least, overseas copyrights, DVD copyrights, second and third rounds, and peripheral authorizations are difficult to sell, let alone at a high price.

If it weren't for the huge popularity and discussion of "My Love from the Star", as well as its precise idol positioning and highly popular characters, it would not have received the pursuit and cooperation from all parties.

What’s a pity is that the drama had a very weak foundation in the beginning, all the advertisements were used as investments, and it was not favored by many advertisers, which resulted in a huge loss of revenue.

But Wei Yang is not the kind of person who likes to get entangled. He didn’t gain much advantage from this drama, but he will make up for it in the next one.

Especially for the established idol drama "Come on, Mr. Love", another important reason for Wei Yang to participate is to bring in advertisements.

Since the male protagonist is a domineering president, he has access to various high-end brands such as cars, clothing, watches, and digital products.

Although Xiao Zhao is an ordinary employee, he probably cannot bring high-end brands, but as a foodie, there is nothing wrong with bringing some snacks, drinks and some mass products.

The investment in the drama "Come, My Love" was not originally high, considering Wei Yang's current halo in the eyes of major advertisers.

By then, it is estimated that there will be a large amount of free props sponsorship, and it may even be possible to recover the cost directly through product placement, or even make a small profit.

This is the highest level of making money out of nothing! After the distribution of the revenue from "My Love from the Star", Blue Whale alone earned about 55 million.

Well, before tax.

The first project after taking over the company was so brilliant that Wei Yang held a celebration banquet in Shanghai, mainly to reward the staff for their hard work and to thank all investors for their trust and support.

The investors also showed their support enthusiastically. Since Fan Xiaopang was busy filming, he sent his agent Mu Xiaoguang to attend the event. To show their appreciation, they even invited her mother, Fan Mu, to represent her.

She has to take it seriously. Not to mention Wei Yang's help to her career and the high degree of ties with her commercial endorsements, the profit share from this play alone is at least 25 million.

No matter who helps you earn 25 million, you can't treat them badly. If she was not really busy, she would have come in person a long time ago.

In addition to these shareholders of the "My Love from the Star" crew, Wei Yang also invited several financiers, media bosses, Shanghai Capital and even several heads of friendly film and television companies who he was planning to attract for cooperation, so that everyone could get together.

On the one hand, it is to show all the bosses Wei's ability to make money, so that everyone can invest generously.

In addition, it is also a way to show off one's own connections and strength, flex one's muscles, and let people know that one is not a soft persimmon, so as to prevent others from having any ulterior motives.

As a close partner of Blue Whale, Tangren and Cai Yinong were also invited to come.

Looking at Wei Yang holding a glass of wine and socializing at the banquet, chatting and laughing with the big bosses, he looked so high-spirited that Boss Cai couldn't help but sigh.

Two years ago, Wei Yang was just a small screenwriter. Although he was a little difficult and cunning, he was still following her to make a living. Who would have thought that Wei Yang would grow so fast in such a short time.

Although the scale and fame of Blue Whale are still somewhat behind that of Tangren.

But how many years was Tangren established?

How long has Wei Yang taken over Blue Whale? Cai Yinong, who has watched Wei Yang grow up step by step, knows too well how capable this young man is. Especially when she sees that Blue Whale is constantly moving and has a lot of financial support, she can't help but feel a strong sense of crisis in her heart.

If this trend continues, in a few years, she will really be looking up to Wei Yang.

Cai Yinong was not the only one with complicated emotions at the scene. Tang Yan was also there.

As one of the main creators of "My Love from the Star", she naturally had to attend the celebration party. She happened to be filming in Shanghai, so she came along and brought a few "drags" with her.

"Hello, Mr. Wei. I am Sun Liang, the vice president of Syndicate Company."

"Hello, Mr. Sun."

"Mr. Sun is the producer of our crew of "The Three Daughters of the Xia Family."

With the huge success of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" and "My Love from the Star", Tang Yan's status also rose. Her resources were no longer as limited as before, and she successfully got the female lead in a drama, "Three Daughters of the Xia Family" produced by Syndicate.

Sun Liang smiled brightly: "I have admired Mr. Wei for a long time. I came here rashly this time because Xiaotang was helping me. I hope you don't mind."

"No, Mr. Sun, it's a great honor to have you here. Welcome, welcome."

Although Wei Yang didn't understand this person's intention, he would definitely not just leave his words unanswered.

The two exchanged greetings for a while, Sun Liang handed over his business card, and then left tactfully. Only then did Wei Yang look at Tang Yan.

"What's going on?"

"I don't know either."

Tang Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I came here directly to follow you before I set off, and I can't get rid of you. But I heard from the crew that it seems that the crew has been looking for external funds, so they may be looking for money from you."

"Throw money!?"

Wei Yang seemed to be thinking about something. He knew the drama "The Three Daughters of the Xia Family". Although it was a bit melodramatic and had a low reputation, its ratings were good.

I have to mention Tang Yan here. Although she doesn’t have many hit works, many people even wonder why she can be listed alongside other 85 flowers.

But in fact, although many of Tang Yan's works did not become popular, they performed well. They belong to the second-tier works that are not as good as the best but more than enough than the worst.

Tang Yan and her team are not stupid. Whether she is suitable for the role of a silly and sweet girl is not the point. The key is that Tang Yan's silly and sweet girl dramas have performed well in the market, and relevant resources are also willing to find her.

Not all actors have the ability and courage to transform and break through. Most of them stay in their comfort zone.

Wei Yang doesn't care about Tang Yan's career choice, but he can guarantee that the drama "The Three Daughters of the Xia Family" is indeed promising.

He still has a large amount of funds that have not been moved. His original target was Tangren, but Mr. Cai had various concerns and was entangled, so he never reached an agreement. If the conditions of "The Three Daughters of the Xia Family" are suitable, he can also give it a try.

But there is no need to talk to Tang Yan about this. The contact information has been given. If Sun Liang really wants to invest in the future, he will definitely look for him.

"Just now I saw a few people came with you, why don't you get to know each other and support you so that you don't get bullied."

"You think everyone is like you."

"What are you saying? If others hear it, they will think I did something to you."

The two bickered for a while, and Tang Yan also brought Wei Yang to meet a few companions, all of whom were the main creators of "The Three Daughters of the Xia Family".

The entertainment industry is like this, especially celebration parties and banquets like this. There are many bosses and opportunities, and many people will try their best to squeeze in.

Today was just a small celebration party, and the artists were all actors from "My Love from the Star", and no artists from Blue Whale came.

Even so, with the help of various friends, many artistes, models, and extras have sneaked in.

Wei Yang turned a blind eye to this. His current situation was special and it was impossible for him to organize any dirty parties. Vegetarian parties were too dry and had no atmosphere, so he relied on the bosses' own female companions and these "enthusiastic people" who came spontaneously.

"This is Zhang Meng."

Wei Yang shook hands with a pure and beautiful girl, and sighed in his heart, "Plastic surgery can kill people. How beautiful she looks now."

"This is Chen Chuhe, from Taiwan."

Wei Yang kept smiling, but his attitude was actually a little cold. This person's identity was too complicated, and he had no intention of cultivating the Taiwanese market, so it was better not to get involved.

"This is Qiu Ze, also from Taiwan, and was a singer for several years."

"I've heard a lot about you."

Wei Yang responded politely out of habit, but this man was not as friendly to him as the previous two. He just shook hands with him perfunctorily and there was no smile on his face.

Zhang Meng hurried over to smooth things over, and kept praising "My Love from the Star" to Wei Yang, and even asked for a photo together.

Interestingly, this person is also the actress in "Beauty's Rival in Palace", playing the role of Wei Zifu. She only appeared at the end, with very few shots and only a brief glimpse of her.

Later, Zhang Meng became a little famous because of that shot, and that damn girl boasted that that one shot made her famous.

However, the influence of "Beauty's Secret" is not as great as that of the original time and space, and Zhang Meng did not benefit from it, and even became a "fan" of Wei Yang.

Wei Yang chatted for a few minutes and had conversations with Zhang Meng, Chen Chuhe and two other actors. Only Qiu Ze ignored him and kept drinking.

Even a fool could see from his attitude that he had something against Wei Yang.

Wei Yang didn't get angry. He just looked at Tang Yan, who was frowning, strangely and smiled gently.

"The boy has an idea."

Wei Yang didn't care about any secrets between the two people, but he was a petty person. If Qiu Ze lost face for him, he would make him feel uncomfortable.

So before he was leaving, he specifically called Tang Yan aside, whispered a few words to her in a friendly manner, then played around with her for a while, and finally stuffed something into Tang Yan's hand and waved away.

Tang Yan didn't react for a moment. She looked at the hotel coupon in her hand in confusion, not understanding what Wei Yang meant by the tongue twister he suddenly told her.

Qiu Ze, who was watching all this not far away, had no idea what he was thinking of, and his face turned pale...
