Chapter 227: Tangled Old Hu (5/5)
"The Temptation of Going Home" is actually a custom drama of Mango Channel!
What's not interesting about custom dramas?
As a simple example, "House of Cards" is an online custom drama, invested by a video website and produced by a film and television company...
Our country is different, Mango TV customized "The Temptation of Going Home", but the investor and producer are still Mengxi Company, of course, Mango TV also invested a little money, almost 10 million...
The series is made and is going to be sold for money.
The first choice is, of course, Mango Terrace.
The total cost of "The Temptation to Go Home" is 35 million - because it is too long, 95 episodes...
The unit price of mango station is 580,000...
Well, not as expected.
58Γ95 = 55.1 million...
It's definitely making money!
And earned more than 20 million ...
It looks pretty good, and the profitability rate has reached 60%.
However, give 30% to Mango Terrace, right?
Most importantly, the average rating of "The Temptation of Going Home" is close to 3%, and the highest viewership share has reached an astonishing 26.7%, creating the highest rating record for Mango Channel except for "Huanzhu Gege"!
It wasn't until "In the Name of the People" that it broke the various records set by "The Temptation to Go Home"...
You say, why can such a TV series only earn so much?
Zhao Jinsong nodded: "I also think it's a bit low, the profitability of the dramas we produce is around 100%..."
"And how much do you think is appropriate?"
"What's the matter, you want 700,000 episodes!"
Shen Mengxi rolled his eyes, and then said: "1 million episodes, I feel low! For such a film, the ratings cannot be less than 2%!"
Zhao Jinsong pondered for a moment and proposed: "... Why don't we sign a VAM agreement?"
"Do you bet against Mango Table?"
"Yes, since you have confidence, let's sign the ratings bet!"
It is normal for ratings to gamble, and when the TV station has a large price difference with the production company when the purchase of a TV drama work, the "compromise plan" generated by the two parties in the bargaining process, for example, the TV station estimation system believes that a certain work should be 500,000 episodes, while the producer believes that the reasonable price should be 800,000 yuan.
If the negotiation is invalid, the specific terms vary widely, but the core is that the two parties agree on a rating, and if this agreed figure is not reached, the production company will not be able to get the money for selling the film.
β... Okay, then sign, based on 2%, more than 0.1 percentage points, the price of a single episode will rise by 30,000!"
Zhao Jinsong: "Fifty thousand, so we have room for maneuver..."
"Specific negotiations, you go to negotiate..."
Shen Mengxi looked at the schedule, and then said: "The filming of "The Beautiful Times of Daughter-in-law" is almost over, and it is time for us to invite major TV stations to visit the class..."
"Isn't Beijing TV very interested?"
"Then a little more choice!"
......
Hugo has been really busy like a dog this time...
The two dramas "Painted Skin" and "The Beautiful Times of the Daughter-in-law" started filming almost at the same time, one male number one, the other male number two...
The key filming locations are not yet in the same place!
"Painted Skin" was filmed in Hengdian, and "The Beautiful Times of Daughter-in-law" was filmed in Beijing!
That's right, he's a play!
And it's a drama that the director and producer agree on...
"The Beautiful Times of Daughter-in-law", Huang Haibo + Haiqing, in the minds of the audience, the popularity plus one piece is not as good as a Hu Ge.
He came to play Mao Feng, and of course the director was willing.
Well, he is not the only one who plays the scene, Tong Yali who plays Long Jin, Zhao Liying who plays Bai Xue, including Wang Lei also played a soy sauce in "The Beautiful Times of Daughter-in-law", he played Yang Yifan...
Of course, Hu Ge's Mao Feng is one of the protagonists, and the others are all small supporting roles, appearing in one or two episodes to help support their appearance or something...
Hugo is tired!
Fortunately, "Painted Skin" is over, and "The Beautiful Times of Daughter-in-law" will be filmed soon...
And he really likes Mao Feng - Mao Feng is a person who is cynical and treats work well, but he is very naΓ―ve about feelings, he hates one and hates the other, and he has no sense of responsibility at all!
Of course, in the end, I found a place to belong and became responsible!
It's the first time Hugo has played this kind of role!
Now I want to shoot Mao Feng is attracted to Long Jin and wants to divorce...
It's useless for anyone to persuade him, Brother Fan has to try!
It's the last scene.
Playing Brother Fan is Guo Jingfei, and the location is a bar.
He walked into the bar very casually, looked left and right, found Mao Feng, and sat down: "Guess you're here, drink so much?"
Hu Ge didn't raise his head, picked it up, took a sip, and then asked, "My sister asked you to come, right?"
β...β
Guo Jingfei didn't answer, just looked at him, and the latter answered: "Alas! everything has been told to me, and I understand, but... Forget it, if you come to persuade me, don't talk!"
"Then let's not chat, drink!"
asked for a bottle of beer, but still spoke: "Mao Feng, what do you say is the difference between this man and a woman?"
Hu Ge ignored him, and Guo Jingfei said to himself: "I think, the smarter a woman is, the more fragile she is, isn't it?"
Hu Ge nodded: "Yes, the smarter and bolder the man, just like me!"
"It's not... What I'm saying is that women often play the weak, and she wins with weakness!"
"Yes, men like to play the strong, but in fact, they are strong on the outside!"
Liu Jiang sat in front of the camera and watched this paragraph with satisfaction.
He really thinks that the actors are well chosen, especially that Guo Jingfei, who has passed one and almost never NG...
Next time you have a play, you must look for him!
Just as he was pondering, the assistant next to him reminded in a low voice: "Director, Producer Shen is here..."
β... Come on..."
subconsciously replied, and then turned his head in surprise, and sure enough, Shen Mengxi was standing behind him...
Shen Mengxi hurriedly waved his hand, which meant 'You shoot first, don't worry about me!'
......
It's not that Liu Jiang is making a fuss, but Shen Mengxi has hardly appeared on the set...
When filming the movie "Departure Today", he thought that Shen Mengxi would come to the crew to visit the class, swear the authority of the producer, and take it, from beginning to end, he did not appear;
"The Beautiful Times of Daughter-in-law", this is almost finished, and Shen Mengxi suddenly came!
Shen Mengxi explained: "There are several TV station buyers who want to come and see, and I mainly come to see Hu Ge. β
"Hugo did a great job!"
β... Okay!" Shen Mengxi turned around and was about to leave, thinking of something, he reminded: "The public relations department of the company will be responsible for receiving the TV station procurement personnel later, and the crew and actors are not allowed to go!"
β... There must be one or two to support the scene, right?"
"Then let the old actors go, and the young actors are not allowed to go!"
β... Good!"
Liu Jiang nodded, Shen Mengxi left, he went to the actors' lounge...
Really come and see Hugo...
After all, "Snail House" is about to start filming, and Hu Ge is the actor of Xiaobei.
Here's the problem, "The Wind" will start filming in January!
The actors are all in the group.
Therefore, Lao Hu is bound to give up a...
He came to persuade Hu Ge to give up "Snail House" and specialize in "The Wind"...
In fact, Lao Hu is also entangled in his heart, he likes Xiaobei in "Snail House", and he also likes Takeda in "The Wind"...
But this time it is impossible to allow him to play!
