Chapter 333: Chief Wu, do you want to make a bet?

"Shhh

Hearing Liu Zixia's words, not only the people on Shanghai TV, but even Lang Wenxing's eyelids jumped.

This guy has such a big tone, and his ratings broke 4!

Before the TV series is scheduled to be broadcast, any accident can happen, and you, a rookie director, are too arrogant to set such a high rating of 4, right?

Lang Wenxing was really anxious, this kid couldn't stand it and started to fire cannons, and he made such a big moth, it really cost people's lives!

The difference between 170 and 700,000 is not a star and a half, and the difference is 20 million in 20 episodes!

"Zixia......" Lang Wenxing dragged Liu Zixia and said, "What are you talking nonsense?"

Originally, Wu Bing had already raised the price of a single episode to 1 million, as long as he stretched it for a while, Lang Wenxing was sure to get 1.3 million, or even higher.

Liu Zixia would throw such a big bet, empathy, if he was the director of Shanghai TV Station, he would definitely gamble, because the winning chance is very big!

"Mr. Liu, are you sure you want to make this bet with me?"

After the shock, Wu Bing came back to his senses and asked with surprise: "Are you so confident in this drama?"

"Brother Xing, listen to me this time. ”

Liu Zixia threw Lang Wenxing a look that everything was given to me, and then turned his head to look at Wu Bing, and said: "Work with heart, of course I have confidence! How about it, Director Wu, do you want to make this bet with me?"

Seeing that Wu Bing and the few people he brought were all full of excitement, Liu Zixia struck while the iron was hot and said:

If I win, then the ratings break 4, which is a good thing for the TV station. If I lose, you also get "Love Apartment" for 700,000 yuan, how about a gamble?"

"Excuse me, let's discuss. ”

Wu Bing and Liu Zixia said a word, and then they gathered together with the few people he brought and underestimated them in a low voice.

A few people muttered for a while, and then Wu Bing came back to his senses calmly, and said to Liu Zixia: "Mr. Liu, we have discussed, I will take your bet, but I have one condition." ”

"You say. ”

Liu Zixia was very sure that Wu Bing would accept the bet.

Because even if it were him, if he hadn't known about the fire, popularity, and explosion of "Love Apartment" in his previous life, he would definitely accept this bet.

"Before the release of "Love Apartment", I need the lead actor of this drama to help promote it. ”

Wu Bing said with a smile: "How about it, as long as you agree to this small request from me, I will agree to your bet." ”

These guys are really cunning enough!

Wu Bing's wishful thinking is really crackling, if their TV station only invites the leading actors of "Love Apartment" to promote it, they will have to pay at least 1.5 million labor fees.

If Liu Zixia agrees to this condition, it will be equivalent to saving a lot of money for Shanghai TV Station.

However, Liu Zixia can only represent himself, and it is impossible for Chen He and Li Mingming to agree to this matter.

"Director Wu, I can only represent myself and promise you this condition. Liu Zixia said: "As for Mengyi and them, you have to invite them yourself!"

"This ......"

Wu Bing was stunned, they hadn't discussed this issue just now, after thinking about it, he said:

"Okay, if you can represent yourself! In this case, I'll draw up a contract now, and you'll see if it's okay in a moment, and if it's okay, we'll sign the contract." ”

"Not yet!" Liu Zixia shook his head and said, "Director Wu, you see you said a condition, and I also have a condition here, I don't know ......"

"You say, you say. Wu Bing stretched out his hand again and again.

"I sold the premiere rights of this drama to the TV station, and only you are on the Shanghai TV station. Liu Zixia said: "But the premiere right on the Internet, you can't interfere with Shanghai Satellite TV." ”

In this world, there are many video websites of all kinds, such as 7 art videos, handsome videos, penguin videos......

These video websites have a rich content system, consisting of dramas, variety shows, movies, and animation, as well as information documentaries, culture and finance, and fashion and life...... and other vertical content groups.

Generally, netizens who want to watch movies, TV series, and even some live broadcasts will go to these video sites to find and watch, and 95% of them can find it.

"I'm afraid this is a little inappropriate, right?" Wu Bing and they obviously thought of this, "Our TV station's App also has a video playback function, so it can be regarded as an online video, right?"

The reason why major TV stations have developed clients is actually to compete with video companies, and they also take a fancy to the cake of online video broadcasting.

It's just that the main strength of TV stations is still on TV, and in the area of online video, it has never been able to seize much share.

"Director Wu, if you want to say that, then we have to say it. ”

Lang Wenxing answered: "Let's return one yard to one yard, the premiere right on TV has been given to you, if you want the right to broadcast online, then you can only pay some price." ”

Unlike selling the premiere rights to TV stations, those video websites generally use three ways to negotiate cooperation with producers:

One is to buy out, directly buy out the broadcast rights of TV dramas;The other is advertising sharing,To put it bluntly, it is to make money according to the number of clicks on TV dramas,The higher the number of clicks,Naturally, you will earn more;The last is the guaranteed share。

The guaranteed is a bit more complicated to say, and it's a combined version of the first two collaborations:

That is, the website first sets a reserve price for the TV series, and then decides the settlement method according to the advertising share, if the sharing result exceeds the guaranteed price, then it will be settled according to the revenue of the share, otherwise it will be settled according to the guaranteed price.

But no matter which one it is, it's not what Wu Bing wants, it's best if you don't need money!

Besides, the client of their TV station itself has the replay function of TV series, so he has to say a lot about it.

Gotcha, got into trouble, didn't you?

"Director, forget it. The woman in professional clothes whispered in Wu Bing's ear: "We don't need to spend such a fee again. ”

Wu Bing was silent for a while, and then said, "Okay, Mr. Liu, I agree to your conditions." However, this TV series can only be released and updated in the early morning of the next day after we broadcast it that day. ”

"Good!"

Liu Zixia agreed, and at the same time he stood up and said: "There is a printer in this conference room, Director Wu, you draw up a contract, I will also draw up a contract, and we will come back later!"

Originally, when a TV station buys a film, the film purchasing department selects the TV series for procurement, and after the initial negotiation with the distributor, it is reported to the director, and finally the director of the station decides whether to buy the version.

Since Wu Bing is here now, whether he can buy it or not is up to him to decide.

"Okay, I'll draw up the contract as soon as possible. ”

Wu Bing nodded, and urged his subordinates to open their laptops and draw up a contract.

......

An hour later, Liu Zixia and Lang Wenxing reappeared in the conference room.

The two parties exchanged their respective contracts, and after confirming that there was no problem, Liu Zixia and Wu Bing signed each other's names in duplicate!

According to the contract, on February 8, 2015, that is, the first day of the Lunar New Year, "Love Apartment" will be released on time at the prime time of Shanghai Satellite TV in the evening!

After signing the contract, the two sides also discussed that a small press conference will be held at Shanghai TV tomorrow morning to make a small publicity for the finalization of "Love Apartment".

Coming out of the Shanghai branch of Wenxing Entertainment, it was already half past five in the afternoon.

Liu Zixia drove home to pick up Li Mengyi and Yueyue, and went straight to the Shanghai Old Hotel.

Originally, I didn't plan to take Li Mengyi, after all, it was easier for several big men to get together and talk.

It's just that later, Wu Xiubo said that he would take his wife and ask Liu Zixia to call Li Mengyi too, so Liu Zixia deliberately went home.

Every weekend, the old hotel in Shanghai will be very busy, but fortunately, Liu Zixia has set the location early.

led Yueyue and Li Mengyi into the Shanghai Old Hotel and went straight to a box on the third floor.

"Zixia, Mengyi, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Liu Zixia knocked on the door of the box, Wu Xiubo directly pushed the door open, and when he saw that it was Liu Zixia, he hurriedly greeted: "Come in, come in!"

"Didn't I say it's half past seven? You're early!"

Liu Zixia walked in with a smile, and then turned his head and saw Lu Weiting, Lin Yifeng and Ye Lintao sitting on the sofa in the box.

In addition to the three of them, there was also a tall, good-looking middle-aged woman who looked to be about forty years old.

"Brother Xia, sister-in-law!"

The few people sitting on the sofa all stood up and greeted Liu Zixia and Li Meng.

"Wei Ting, Yi Feng, Taozi, you came early!"

Liu Zixia and Li Mengyi first greeted them, and then looked at the middle-aged woman sitting on the sofa, "Brother Bo, this is my sister-in-law, right?"

"This is an insider, Fang Jie!" Wu Xiubo introduced: "Xiaojie, you don't need me to introduce these two, do you?

"Then you still need to say it?" Fang Jie glanced at Wu Xiubo and greeted him with a smile, "Zixia, Mengyi, hello! Hey, this is Yueyue, you look so beautiful!"

Yueyue, who was held in Liu Zixia's arms, blinked her big eyes and said, "Auntie, you are also very beautiful!"

"Yueyue really can talk!"

Fang Jie smiled happily, took out a butterfly hairpin made of colorful crystals from her pocket, and put it on the little guy's hair, "I'll give this to you!"

Yueyue's eyes were all finished with the crescent, and she said obediently: "Thank you, Auntie!"

"Thank you, sister-in-law. Looking at Yueyue's cute little expression, Li Mengyi also smiled.

"Okay, you're welcome, let's hurry up and serve the table, right?" Wu Xiubo glanced at Lu Weiting and said, "How many of you are too, there is glue under your shoes?"

"Hey, I'm a little hungry when you say that. Lin Yifeng touched his stomach and said.

Lu Weiting walked in the direction of the table and said, "I've been to Shanghai so many times, and I've never eaten here!"

"Then you're here!" Ye Lintao said happily: "I bought two bottles of good wine in Jinling yesterday, and today we will not get drunk and not return!"

Everyone went to the table, Fang Jie and Li Mengyi sat together, and Yueyue was stuck in the middle.

Now, the table was full of people!
