Higashiyama Radio and Television Station Building

Television Production Center, 10th Floor, Director's Office

Zuo Le looked at the calm old man, a little confused.

He thought that if he said that he was going out to work alone, Fang Weimin would definitely be surprised, or disgraced, or even angry.

But I didn't expect that the old party could be so calm and calm.

Zuo Le suddenly doubted his status in Dongshantai, is there no card at all?

"Director, aren't you surprised at all when I left the stage?" Zuo Le asked.

"What's surprising about that. ”

Fang Weimin smiled indifferently: "I expected such a day a long time ago. ”

Lao Fang leisurely cocked Erlang's legs: "The online copyright of "Underground Traffic Station" sold for 200 million, "No. 2 Traffic Station" sold for 360 million, and "The Story of the Cooking Class" has a conservative minimum of 200 million.

This is only the network copyright, if you add the TV copyright and replay rights, it will be hundreds of millions of dollars.

Although it is said that these TV series are investment and publicity in Taiwan, and there are a lot of bonuses given to you afterwards, but compare your heart to heart, these dramas can be popular, and the biggest hero is you Zuo Le, without you, there is no current success in Taili.

You have the most credit, but the result is that you eat meat and you drink soup in the table, and after a long time, if I were you, I would go out to do it. ”

"Don't say that, Director. ”

Zuo Le's face was a little emotional, and he sighed and said: "Without the support of the station, "Underground Transportation Station" would not have been filmed, and I Zuo Le would not have today's results, this is the grace of knowing the encounter, and I remember it in my heart."

As for the money, the station actually didn't treat me badly, I knew it in my heart, and if I changed to other TV stations and companies, I couldn't even save money for a house. ”

This is Zuo Le's true words.

Dongshan Station has made a lot of money in the traffic station two-part series, and the network copyright, advertising fees, plus the saved TV exclusive broadcast and replay copyright fees, are at least no less than 10 figures.

With so much money, if you want to say that Zuo Le has no idea at all, that's fake.

But you have to say that his eyes are so red that he can't sleep, and he feels that Dongshantai has robbed him of his money, and Zuo Le is not so ignorant.

Dongshan TV invested in TV dramas, and no matter how much income the TV series earned, it was what people deserved, and it had nothing to do with Zuo Le, the director and screenwriter.

Zuo Le gets a salary and salary, and Dongshantai gives him an additional high bonus according to the benefits, which is already a more generous approach.

To seek more is to be greedy enough.

Therefore, Zuo Le's choice to go it alone is not for money, of course, there must be the idea of going out and investing in selling TV to make more money, but it is not the decisive factor.

............

"Director, so far, I'll tell you the truth, this time I want to go out and set up another door, the reason why I want to make more money is only partial, more, I want to seek autonomy and creative independence.

Working in Taiwan, I was constrained too much. ”

Zuo Le confided his heart to his old boss: "Now in our station, many people are staring at me, bent on making me a cow and a horse to make money for the station, so that they can make political achievements."

Before I set up a bridge to let Taili and Kongwen cooperate in "The Story of the Cooking Class", many people in Taiwan had objections, and they were full of hope that I would do the third part of the traffic station, instead of filming a military sitcom.

Don't be in a hurry to explain, I've been in Taiwan for so many years, and I have some connections on my hands, although I'm in the capital, but things in Taiwan are quite clear.

If it weren't for the director, Mo Tai and you to help me support me, "The Story of the Cooking Class" would definitely not have gone so smoothly. ”

Zuo Le's face was a little tangled: "Now that "The Story of the Cooking Class" has just finished filming, and the post-production has not yet begun, some people are starting to want to insert a lever and let me shoot some themes that I don't want to touch.

Just two days ago, someone from our station called me, and asked his relatives for the role in a roundabout way, and it was the heroine, what did you think of me Zuo Le?

If I want to develop like this, either I can't bear the pressure and lose my principles, and make a big bad movie, or I won't get in the oil and salt, and I will offend a large number of people, and I will be worn with small shoes everywhere in the future.

Director, it's not that I'm alarmist, it's just this posture to shoot a small-budget sitcom now, and if I want to set up a big production in the future, I can't let these people die.

Even if the results of the shooting are not good, I am afraid that I will become cannon fodder for the back.

You and the director can protect me for a while, but they can't protect me for a lifetime, I think there are too many restrictions in the system, so it's better to go out and do it alone.

Although it is not as stable as the stage, it is free and unrestrained, and it is your own to shoot whatever you want, and if you make or lose, you will be your own. ”

After listening to what Zuo Le said, Fang Weimin showed a wry smile on his face, he could understand the situation Zuo Le encountered, this is a common problem of the system, even some large enterprises.

Some people swallow their anger and obey the mercy; some people pretend to give in and make false promises with them, waiting for an opportunity to fight back; and some people directly lift the table and leave, leaving no master here, but having a place to stay with their own master.

Zuo Le obviously chose the third one, with his ability, he would not be short of food when he left Dongshantai, and he would even mix better.

In fact, since the broadcast of "No. 2 Traffic Station", Fang Weimin has thought that Zuo Le will leave sooner or later, not only him, but also Chen Changshan, Mo Dashan and others.

The stage of Dongshan Terrace is too small to keep this real dragon!

But Fang Weimin didn't expect that Zuo Le's choice to leave was not because of money, nor because he was poached by others, but because he couldn't stand the flies and dogs inside the station.

He didn't doubt Zuo Le's words, what kind of virtue some people in the station were, he knew better than anyone else, he didn't do anything serious, and there were a lot of bullshit.

He estimated that Zuo Le had the intention of going it alone, but he hadn't completely thought about it, and now he was forced by this group of people and made up his mind directly.

After all, who wants to be criticized every day, although it is harmless, but many times it is disgusting.........

............

"Don't worry, I'll help you talk about it over there. ”

After figuring out Zuo Le's idea, Lao Fang took the initiative to help his old subordinates actively run.

"Taili's current achievement, you are a hero, and the director of the station must also accept your affection, and he will not force you to be embarrassed.

Besides, everyone is good to get together and disperse, the people you go out of the stage have a love for each other, and they will often cooperate in the future. ”

"No need for later. ”

Zuo Le had a smile on his face: "I have a project to cooperate with Taili now." ”

"What project?" asked the old man, puzzled.

Zuo Le took out a folder from the bag next to him, and said with a bright smile: "I don't have enough funds to open a company, and I want Taili to invest some money to support it, and I will give up 15% of the shares to Taili."

In the future, the TV series produced by the company will have the first priority under the same conditions, and the two sides will share resources to a certain extent and carry out comprehensive cooperation.

Of course, there is a prerequisite for this is that Taili cannot interfere in the company's operations, and I have to decide how the company develops. ”

"Good boy, you're hiding such a hand. ”

Lao Fang's eyes lit up, and he praised it, what lack of money to attract investment, it is all an excuse, Zuo Le is worth tens of millions, as long as he does not engage in any big productions, it is enough for the company to start.

The reason why he wants to come to Dongshantai to "attract investment" is to find a backer and block the tongue.

Needless to say, Zuo Lexin Company relies on Dongshan Terrace, and other places dare not say that the entertainment industry in Dongshan Province is horizontal, and some competitors in the circle want to use any dirty means, but also to weigh it.

And the people who blocked the tongue were those who saw Zuo Le's departure from Dongshantai chirp crookedly.

Zuo Le is not parting ways with Dongshantai, and since then they have not seen each other, the relationship between the two families is good, Dongshantai is a shareholder of Zuo Lexin's company, and the two sides cooperate closely, like a family.

Only these two points, Zuo Le's shares are worth it for nothing.

And it seems that Zuo Le has taken a lot of advantage here, but Dongshantai has not lost either.

At the cost of a small amount of money, an alliance was formed with Zuo Le, a hot director, and the two sides were firmly tied to the same boat, and the relationship was even stronger than before to some extent.

In the past, Zuo Le could still change jobs and leave, but now unless the new company goes bankrupt, the two sides will not be separated.

Win-win!

The old man's smile became more and more prevalent, and he took out the phone without saying a word: "You wait a while, I will call the director immediately to report." ”
