"Hahaha......"

It's just an episode of "Love Apartment", and the people in the conference room, whether it's Lang Wenxing or Shanghai TV, are all amused by the funny of this TV series and bend over.

Even Liu Zixia, who felt a little old-fashioned when watching all the stalks in this drama, was amused by the part where the police said that they were overtaking.

This first episode is only a little over forty minutes long.

Originally, the people who went to Shanghai TV were still a little serious and nervous before watching this drama, after all, it was to talk about cooperation with a large media group like Wenxing Entertainment, and it was still difficult to win it.

Looking at the present, whether it was the director of the station, Wu Bing, or the people in Taiwan he brought with him, their spirits were all relaxed, and they even had no strength to laugh.

The atmosphere in the conference room has also become more relaxed.

"Mr. Liu. After watching this episode, Wu Bing was still a little unsatisfied, "Is the second episode completed?"

"Uh......" Liu Zixia was stunned for a moment and said: "At present, the first 3 episodes of the TV series have been produced, but it does not affect the watching, I don't know if Director Wu wants to ......"

"Oh, Mr. Liu, don't get me wrong!" Wu Bing hurriedly said: "I want to see if the quality of the later episodes is the same as this first episode." ”

"Chief Wu, it's not that I'm hiding. ”

Liu Zixia did not choose to play the later TV series, but said: "Each episode of "Love Apartment" is a separate story, or two episodes into a small story, in fact, watching one episode has the same effect as watching two episodes. ”

According to Liu Zixia's meaning, he didn't want to reveal all his hole cards.

"That's the case!" Wu Bing was stunned, but his heart was also itching, and he really wanted to see it.

"I don't know what Director Wu's opinion of this drama is?" Liu Zixia stopped talking, so the next step is to go to the negotiation stage, which is Lang Wenxing's specialty.

"Not bad, funny, relaxed, love, romantic......" Wu Bing used a series of adjectives, and simply praised "Love Apartment" to the sky.

But regardless of whether it is Lang Wenxing or Li Zixia, they all know that Wu Bing must have a 'but' behind him!

"But ......" God turned around, but it wasn't the 'but' that Liu Zixia thought.

"This drama is easy enough. Wu Bing's face became slightly serious,

"But now is the Internet age, young people are accompanied by mobile phones and computers every day, and rarely watch TV. The main force of watching TV is still those middle-aged and elderly people, they like family ethics dramas and historical dramas more, this drama is a youth sitcom, I'm afraid it can't win the love of these people!"

"Director Wu. ”

As soon as Wu Bing's words fell, Lang Wenxing laughed, and he said:

"In modern society, the pace is getting faster and faster, especially those white-collar workers and gold-collar workers, who have to take care of their families and cope with various gatherings in addition to work every day...... Life is stressful!

Director Wu also said just now that this drama is relaxed, funny, and can relieve pressure, and these white-collar and gold-collar workers will definitely not miss such a TV series. ”

"Lang may not have understood me. ”

Wu Bing's eyes flashed, and he said: "Even if these white-collar and gold-collar workers like to watch this drama, it is also to download resources on the TV station's App afterwards to watch, and it is more convenient to watch it on mobile phones and computers, and there is no need to watch TV with stuck points." ”

"Director Wu, what you said is not authentic. Lang Wenxing rolled his eyes and said:

"Now that the network is so developed, the TV station App can also broadcast in real time, and this rating is also counted in the TV station's ratings on the day. Like you said, those gold-collar and white-collar workers can't stay in front of the TV and wait to watch "Love Apartment", but they can use their mobile phones or computers to watch it?"

"Hehe......"

Wu Bing laughed a little embarrassed twice, he really had this plan, he could fool him over, but he didn't expect people to be smart, so he blocked it directly!

"It seems that we don't need to discuss whether anyone is watching anymore. ”

He lost the first round of negotiations, and Wu Bing directly entered the next round: "I don't know what Mr. Liu and Mr. Lang expect from this TV series?"

"What does Director Wu mean, do you want to ask me what I expect from the ratings of this show?" Liu Zixia looked at Wu Bing and asked.

"Let's just say that. Wu Bing nodded.

Liu Zixia lowered his head and thought about it, and said, "I don't know when your satellite TV had the highest ratings before?"

“4.9！”

A young woman wearing professional women's clothes and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses said: "It was when "The Legend of Chu and Han" was broadcast, and the TV series broke 3 as soon as it was released! ”

For a TV station, if the rating reaches 4, it is enough to make it rank in the top 5 of the national TV station.

Including the TV series "Beauty Crescent" that is now being broadcast on Orange Fruit Satellite TV.

Their ratings yesterday were just over 4, which is the reason why the TV series is almost over, and many people are waiting for the finale.

Otherwise, it's usually between 3.3 and 3.8.

In terms of this rating, Orange Fruit Satellite TV has occupied the first place in the ratings for a long time!

Orange Fruit Satellite TV is proud, and it is not unreasonable!

"That ......"

Although Liu Zixia is very confident in "Love Apartment", he also knows that he can't become a fat man in one go, so he gave a relatively conservative number:

"It's going to be between two and three. ”

"So tall?" Wu Bing was startled, he didn't expect Liu Zixia to dare to think so.

"What, Director Wu, don't you believe it?" Liu Zixia smiled and said, "I'm very confident in this drama!"

"Mr. Liu, it's good to be confident, but you can't be overconfident!" Wu Bing couldn't laugh or cry.

A sitcom like "Love Apartment", over the years, other TV stations have not introduced it, but the ratings are very bleak, even if it is better, it is a 2 at the top, and it is difficult to exceed 2.5.

This is also why, Wu Bing asked Liu Zixia about his estimate of the ratings of this show.

Shaking his head, Wu Bing was just about to speak, but Liu Zixia said directly: "How much money does Director Wu plan to pay?"

Why don't you play according to the routine? I've never seen such a business negotiation?

Lang Wenxing's rhythm was also obviously deviated by Liu Zixia, and at this time, Comrade Lang was dumbfounded when he looked at Liu Zixia, but looking at Wu Bing's state, the effect seems to be okay!

After being silent for a while, Wu Bing said: "I have learned, your show has a total of 20 episodes, and I will buy out the premiere rights for 700,000 yuan per episode, how about it?"

700,000 episodes, 20 episodes is 14 million.

According to the TV series shot by a rookie director in the past, the price is barely passable, but overall it is still a little low.

After all, the average price of TV series at this time is around 1.3 million.

As for those big-budget TV series, the price is around 1.7 million or 800,000, which is the gap between rookie directors and those with qualifications.

Of course, if you look at it purely from the perspective of whether it makes money, the production cost of "Love Apartment" is only about 7.5 million, and its advertising sponsorship fee is 4.3 million, plus the 14 million premiere cost, this TV series can be said to be very profitable.

And for a rookie director, such an achievement is excellent!

"700,000 ......" Liu Zixia frowned, shook his head and said, "It's low!"

The people who came with Wu Bing all frowned, and one of them, who was wearing glasses, said, "Mr. Liu, this price is already high for a newcomer......

"That's for other newcomers. ”

Liu Zixia directly interrupted him, "Not to mention that there are two big names in this drama, Mengyi and Chen He, coupled with the publicity during this time, it has attracted a lot of traffic to this drama." If you do the propaganda yourself, don't you have to pay for the publicity?"

"And how much does Mr. Liu want?" asked the woman who had just spoken.

"1.7 million!" Liu Zixia opened his mouth directly, "1.7 million episodes, I will give you the premiere rights." ”

The people on Shanghai Satellite TV stared at their eyes, which was frightened.

Do you want to be so ruthless?

1.7 million, you can win the TV series shot by those well-known directors, this price is really scary!

"Mr. Liu, this is too high, right?"

After being shocked, Wu Bing quickly calmed down, and he said: "Our station is not as good as Orange Fruit Satellite TV, it is supported by Orange Light Media, and one or two hundred million is like a drizzle for them! Our TV station, that's squeezing money out of between the teeth......

Sit on the ground and start the price, and pay back on the ground, since you have made a price, then I will pay the price.

"Director Wu, you also have to understand us. ”

Lang Wenxing took over the conversation, "We haven't paid the actors yet, do you know how much it cost to invite Chen He and Li Mengyi? Just one episode, the two of them scored 300,000 yuan, plus the salaries of other actors, the rental of props, and editing...... If you pay 700,000 yuan, we won't even be able to get it back!"

The old man believes in your wickedness!

Wu Bing rolled his eyes in his heart, why didn't he find out before, your old man still has the ability to open his eyes and tell nonsense?

"900,000!" Wu Bing had a sincere look on his face, "No more, this is our bottom line." ”

"1.7 million!" Liu Zixia didn't let go.

"1 million!"

"1.7 million ......"

This was a tug-of-war, and in the end, Liu Zixia said directly: "Director Wu, it's really boring to push back and forth! Do you want to make a bet with me?"

"Uh......"

Wu Bing, who was thinking about how to make Liu Zixia lower the price again, was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said, "What kind of bet?"

"How about betting on this rating?"

Liu Zixia's eyes were firmly fixed on Wu Bing, and he said: "I bet that after the release of "Love Apartment", the ratings will break 4! If I win, it will be calculated according to what I just said, the price of 1.7 million per episode! If I lose, it will be calculated according to the 700,000 per episode that Director Wu said, how about it?"

This is not Liu Zixia's arrogance, judging from the popularity of "Love Apartment" in the previous life, the ratings are at least 4, if you are lucky, you may be able to reach 5, and at that time it can be regarded as creating a ratings miracle!
