277 Exciting Gambling Agreement
Early the next morning, Wei Xun, who flew back to Beijing overnight, led Zou Min and Qi Dongyue to Hongmang Satellite TV.
Looking back now, the last time he came here in person was to sell "The Voice of China".
Now this variety show has become the absolute ace of Hongmang Satellite TV. Although the ratings in recent episodes are not as good as before, they can still stabilize the programs of other TV stations.
It is precisely for this reason that when Wei Xun proposed the medal and had a TV series that wanted to fill out the schedule for "Family Relationship", Hongmang Satellite TV immediately stated that he could watch the drama first.
But things seem to be not as simple as Wei Xun thought.
"Taiwan had the intention of cutting and shifting gears as early as last week. It is currently negotiating a TV series with Beijing Xingtiandi, but the other party is too high and refuses to give up, so it has not reached an agreement."
After seeing Wei Xun, Wen Tao whispered: "The prime time of summer is a piece of fat, and many people are staring at it, not only your family, so you have to be mentally prepared to be rejected or postponed."
Generally speaking, experienced TV stations rarely experience ratings overturned.
The dramas in the prime time of summer are carefully selected.
The TV series "Family Relationship" seems to be of bad quality, but the filming is not down-to-earth enough and has not found the right audience, so it cannot even be used as a prime time for a top-notch satellite TV station.
Since you can't carry it, you have to be cut.
After all, the TV station also needs to make a living.
Such a good schedule is empty, but it is really a big fat piece like Wen Tao said. Someone has set his sights on it long before Wei Xun.
Beijing Xingtiandi, one of the three major ace companies in the TV drama industry, is famous for its TV dramas to stand up to ratings.
Of course, it is precisely because it can withstand the ratings that the price is very expensive.
So the leaders of Hongmang TV, who had just spent a lot of money on "Family Relationships", began to hesitate.
If you spend a big price to buy a drama to fill in the film, if you fail for the second time, you will be unable to bear the loss.
After listening to the news revealed by Wen Tao, Wei Xun said: "Thank you, Director Wen, for reminding me."
"It's just a little thing."
Wen Tao took Wei Xun and others to the TV station and said jokingly: "You have been in the movie industry recently, so why bother to the TV industry? With this skill, you will make everything back after making more movies."
Wei Xun smiled and said, "It always needs to be fully developed. The TV series of Medal has just started, so I will take them to explore the way."
Wen Tao nodded in a clear understanding.
When a company grows bigger, it will consider comprehensive development and contribute to various aspects.
Ten minutes later, Wei Xun met the relevant film purchasing leaders in the Taiwan conference room in Hongmang TV.
Because we had dealing with each other before, we were considered to be acquaintance, so we didn't argue too much and went directly to the movie watching stage.
A TV series is too long, not to mention that "The Temptation of Going Home" has a total of 74 episodes, which cannot be watched on the spot at all, so now it is a story editing version.
As the producer of the TV series, Qi Dongyue made a plot notation explanation next to her.
When he was at Dongheng Film and Television, he had dealt with Hongmang Satellite TV. At that time, these leaders in the Taiwan area had never looked at him directly.
Now that he jumped from Dongheng to the medal, he could have a direct conversation with the core leaders of Hongmang TV.
I have to say that this is the status gap.
Half an hour later, the slightly elderly Director Chen asked: "Mr. Wei, what is the psychological price of your drama?"
Director Chen’s name is Chen Sheng. Currently, he is responsible for the film purchases on Hongmang Satellite TV.
The drama "The Temptation of Going Home" is essentially a bloody family drama.
Anyone who knows the TV series market knows that this kind of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's x-study drama is the most popular among women, and the TV series audience is itself a middle-aged woman.
So after reading a brief clip of the edited version, Chen Sheng knew it.
I won’t mention whether it can be broken or not, but in terms of this subject and plot tension, the basic market will definitely be stable.
But think about it again, Hongmang TV itself is a top-notch TV station, and now it is a fake. If you didn’t meet a waste like "Family Relationship", you can just change to a relatively ordinary drama, and you will have no pressure to break 1 in the prime time.
Because top-notch satellite TV stations have their own ratings base and audience groups.
Wei Xun smiled and asked, "Director Chen, what do you think this drama is at? I'm the first time I'm doing a TV series and I don't know much about this market."
Chen Sheng thought for a moment and said, "120,000."
120,000 means 120,000 episodes, and you can buy it out at a price.
In this time and space, the film industry has begun to develop rapidly due to Wei Xun’s votes, but the TV series circle is actually relatively backward.
"The Temptation of Going Home" has a total of 74 episodes. If you sell it at a price of 120,000, it is basically equivalent to nearly nine million.
The cost of this show is actually less than half of the nine million.
Without big-name actors, they are basically in-shelf dramas, and the production is relatively rough and unintentional. If it weren't for Wei Xun's sake, Chen Sheng wouldn't have directly given the price to 120,000.
Moreover, this drama is used for Hongmang Satellite TV to fill in the prime time of summer!
Zou Min and Qi Dongyue's eyes lit up when they heard this.
Obviously this price touched both of them.
However, Wei Xun shook his head and said, "Low."
Chen Sheng smiled and said, "Mr. Wei, you offer the offer."
Wei Xun thought about it and said casually: "It's about 400,000."
Chen Sheng almost couldn't maintain his smiling face.
Wen Tao was also embarrassed next to him, and quietly pulled Weixun's arm, signaling him to come and go.
Qi Dongyue and Zou Min were also a little confused.
Wei Xun said that he didn't understand the quotation of TV series, but how could he really not understand anything?
In fact, the 120,000 yuan given by Chen Sheng is really very conscientious. As for Wei Xun's 400,000 yuan, those who don't know think he is here to smash the situation.
Or, since he asked for a price of 400,000, there was no need to negotiate this price.
It is certain that Hongmang TV will definitely not spend 30 million to buy a shoddy thunder drama.
However, Wei Xun is the president of Medal Media after all. Even if Chen Sheng was unhappy, he did not show it. Instead, he smiled and said, "For 400,000, it is indeed a bit high. It is better for Mr. Wei to go to another house to try it."
Now Qi Dongyue was completely anxious.
The price of 120,000 is already very good, and it is still the prime time of Hongmang Satellite TV. As long as "The Temptation of Going Home" becomes famous, then the medal TV department will have a report card next, and the next drama "Rural Love Story" will be sold even better.
But... Mr. Wei asked someone for 400,000 as soon as he spoke. What does this mean?
It was Zou Min who understood his boss's personality and probably had something to do, so she quietly waited for Wei Xun's next words.
Sure enough, after hearing Chen Sheng’s rejection, Wei Xun smiled and said, “Director Chen, don’t be so anxious. I heard that when the price of TV series cannot be negotiated, the TV station will talk in a different way.”
Chen Sheng felt a little moved when he heard this and said in surprise: "What does Mr. Wei mean?"
"Yes, the ratings bet." Wei Xun smiled and said, "According to the ranking of 34 central cities in the national TV station, I don't know what the rules of Hongmang TV are?"
Chen Sheng said: "When a TV series is broadcast, the average time period is sixth or above, and the price is 350,000 yuan per episode. After that, for every rating drops, the cost of a single episode decreases by 50,000 yuan. When it reaches the tenth place, a single episode will fall by 100,000 yuan, and the top ten will fall out of the eleventh place. If the TV station broadcasts this drama for free, only three fees for the drama will be paid, which is about 10,000 yuan."
This is the magical TV series ratings bet.
When the ratings ranking reaches the highest level, it can sell for tens of millions, and if it drops to a certain level, the TV station can even broadcast your drama for free.
However, unlike the various ratings fraud in the post-traffic era, in this era, the ratings are real, so there are agreements such as rating bets.
"In this way, let's change the way of playing."
After listening to Chen Sheng's explanation, Wei Xun chuckled and said, "The Temptation of Going Home is the sixth rating, and I don't want you for a penny. On the basis of the sixth place, it rose to fifth, with an increase of 80,000 per ranking. That is to say, when this drama ranks first in the national period, it is 400,000 per episode. At the same time, in addition to the ranking, we will look at the ratings. On the basis of the ratings exceeding 3, for every 0.1 increase, you will add 100,000 to me."
After he finished speaking, the entire conference room became quiet.
The content of this gambling regulations has shocked everyone.
At this moment, everyone had only one thought in their minds.
