The next day, Wang Huan came to Tianxing Film Company early in the morning.

Because he made an appointment with Ren Min, he will talk about one thing here today.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Ren Min, who was dressed in formal clothes, came to the door on time.

Ren Min was in high spirits at this moment, not at all like the sad appearance of Wang Huan when he first saw him two months ago.

There is no other reason.

When "I Am a Singer" became popular, Ren Min, as the chief director, rose with the tide. Especially in the finals of "I Am a Singer" last night, all aspects of the data set a new record for Chinese variety shows, which completely shocked the entire industry.

So now, Ren Min can be said to be among the top directors in China, and his status is incomparable.

Some media even dug up gossip, saying that at least ten top domestic TV stations had extended an olive branch to him and hired him as the director of other variety shows in the past with a sky-high salary. However, Ren Min seems to have recognized Tomato Channel and rejected all invitations from other TV stations.

Seeing Ren Min, Wang Huan stood up and stretched out his right hand: "Director Ren, welcome." ”

"Wang Huan, hello. ”

After the two exchanged pleasantries.

Ren Min sat opposite Wang Huan's desk, took out a series of documents from his briefcase, and then said, "Wang Huan, you should have known my intention this time. We are still running for the rights to the next season of "I Am a Singer". ”

When he said this, Ren Min was a little depressed in his heart.

In the past month or so, since the first episode of "I Am a Singer" was broadcast, there has been a trend of ace variety shows. So at that time, the top management of Tomato TV was keenly aware that it was necessary to quickly grab the copyright of the next season. So Ren Min was given the important task of negotiating with Wang Huan about the copyright of the next season of "I Am a Singer".

But what made Ren Min helpless was that every time he mentioned this matter, Wang Huan avoided talking about it, and at most he would only say one sentence: Wait until after the finals of "I Am a Singer".

So for more than a month, Ren Min has been both happy and worried.

Happy because the ratings of "I Am a Singer" are rising and its influence is growing day by day.

The worry is that he is afraid that other TV stations will suddenly come out and buy the copyright of the next season of "I Am a Singer", so there will be no place for Tomato TV to cry.

Until the finals ended last night, Wang Huan finally agreed to Ren Min's words, saying that he would start negotiating the copyright of the next season of "I Am a Singer" today.

At this time, Ren Min was a little relieved in his heart, but he understood why Wang Huan had been dragging this matter. Obviously, Wang Huan has long seen the huge potential of "I Am a Singer", and only after the finals are over, the value of this show will be reflected to the highest extent.

So now, there's no better time to talk about the next season's rights!

"Little fox, you're getting more and more shrewd. ”

Ren Min muttered in his heart, and looked at Wang Huan with a smile on his face.

Wang Huan nodded: "No problem, today we are here to negotiate the copyright of the second season of "I Am a Singer". But I'm not very good at bargaining, so why don't you make a price first? How much are you going to spend on Tomato to buy the rights to the second season?"

Ren Min thought for a while: "Wang Huan, before I came, the senior management of Tomato Station greeted me, saying that it was to thank you for selling us the copyright of "I Am a Singer", which allowed us to get huge benefits. Therefore, we have come to this negotiation with the greatest sincerity. I won't play my own tricks like other business negotiations, and directly reveal to you the bottom line price of our station. For the copyright fee of the second season of "I Am a Singer", our maximum budget is 260 million. ”

Wang Huan snorted.

These days, he has carefully consulted Chen Hui, Ding Cheng, Yuan Qi and others, and the three of them gave him similar answers, saying that the copyright fee for the second season of "I Am a Singer" should hover around 220 million-250 million.

And now, Tomato TV can actually give a high price of 260 million, which seems to be full of sincerity.

"I can accept this price, does Director Ren have any other requirements?"

Wang Huan said.

Ren Min said: "Because of the second season of "I Am a Singer", we will not start recording until at least May and June next year, and the funds of 260 million are huge. So we are ready to pay 10 million sincerity money for the time being. Wait for the program to be recorded in May next year, and after the investment advertising fee is in hand, the final payment will be paid in three installments. I wonder if you can accept this condition?"

Wang Huan said: "Yes." ”

It is simply unrealistic to ask Tomato TV to come up with 260 million in cash at one time. So Ren Min's request is very reasonable.

Ren Min said: "In addition, there are a few points. First: We hope that the copyright after the second season of "I Am a Singer", under the same conditions, Tomato TV will have priority qualifications. Second: In the first season of "I Am a Singer", we once asked for your opinion and sold the broadcast rights of the finals to several foreign TV stations, and the response has been good so far. Therefore, in the second season, we are ready to vigorously promote and form in-depth cooperation with some foreign TV stations. Third: I don't know if you have any other good variety show ideas, if so, we hope to be able to buy it as soon as possible. ”

Wang Huan smiled.

"The first point is fine. The third point, let's talk about it later, if I have an idea, I will definitely contact you. It's just the second point, I have a different opinion. ”

"Oh? ”

Ren Min asked.

Wang Huan said: "You can promote the second season of "I Am a Singer" abroad, or you can cooperate with foreign TV stations. But for this show, you can't have English subtitles for simultaneous translation. There can be no more than three foreign players to join the guests. ”

Ren Min was surprised: "Why is this?"

Wang Huan's eyes flashed: "Because, next, I am going to export the copyright of "I Am a Singer" abroad. ”

Hiss~~~

Hearing Wang Huan's words, Ren Min gasped.

Exporting the copyright of "I Am a Singer" abroad?

At this moment, a huge wave rose in Ren Min's heart.

Although the show "I Am a Singer" is good enough, it has even reached a phenomenal level in China. But he never thought that its copyright would go abroad one day.

There is no way, the local culture, nationality and limitations of China are too great. Many programs that are good enough become inconspicuous once they leave the soil that nourishes them. This is the principle of the southern orange and the northern orange.

"Can "I Am a Singer" really go abroad?"

Ren Min's heart was trembling.

For so many years, Huaxia has been introducing various variety shows from abroad. But there has never been a program that has been favored by foreign radio stations. If the model of "I Am a Singer" can be recognized by foreign countries, it is estimated that it will cause a sensation in China and even the world. And as a Chinese, he also has a light on his face.

Wang Huan smiled faintly: "Try it." ”

When he said this, Wang Huan was full of confidence.

Because this morning, he received a transatlantic text message from Master Booz, who said that the program "I Am a Singer" has attracted the attention of several foreign TV stations, and the other party is likely to have the idea of buying the copyright.

That's great news!
