Chapter 155 Determine the broadcast platform
Zhou Dong is just a small person in Qin Feng's eyes, not worth mentioning, after terminating the contract with Zhou Dong, Qin Feng found a senior editor in the industry again, and then Liangjian's editing work was also on the right track.
………
In the chairman's office of Yanhuang Film and Television, Qin Feng leaned back on a chair at this time, holding a newspaper in his hand, and a cup of smoking tea on the table.
"Jingle Bell ~ Jingle Bell ~"
"Hey. Qin Feng picked up the phone and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Mr. Qin, Director Liu is here and wants to see you. Faye Wong's crisp voice sounded in Qin Feng's ears.
"Liu Yang?" Qin Feng asked.
"Yes. ”
"Alright, invite him to my office. Qin Feng said.
"Yes. ”
"Director Liu, we always have an invitation from Mr. Qin, please come with me. Faye Wong looked at Liu Yang and showed a smile.
"Yes. ”
"Bang bang bang. ”
"Please come in. ”
Faye Wong opened the door, and then made a gesture of invitation to Liu Yang.
"Director Liu, why did you come to the door in person, if you have something, just call me directly. Qin Feng walked directly in front of Liu Yang, stretched out his right hand and said politely.
"Come on, come on, Director Liu, come and sit, how tired it is to stand. Qin Feng pulled Liu Yang to sit on the sofa on the side.
"I don't know if you're going to have tea or coffee?"
"Let's have tea. Liu Yang said.
"Faye Wong, come with two cups of good Longjing. Qin Feng said.
"Well, please wait. Faye Wong responded.
After a while, two cups of hot dragon wells came up.
"Director Liu, come and try it, this is a high-grade Longjing tea of mine, and I finally bought it. Qin Feng pointed to the teacup and said.
"Good tea, it's still comfortable for you. Liu Yang tasted it and said.
"I'm just fooling around. Qin Feng changed the topic and said, "I don't know what Director Liu is here for this time?"
"Hehe, Qin Feng, I'm going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. Liu Yang directly explained his intentions and thoughts: "I heard that "Bright Sword" is already in post-production. ”
Qin Feng showed a look that was really like this.
"Director Liu, you have great powers, yes, "Bright Sword" is indeed in post-production, and it will be completed in almost a month. ”
Hearing Qin Feng's words, Liu Yang's face was overjoyed.
Liu Yang is not only the program director of Beijing Satellite TV, but also works in the Literature and Art Department of Beijing Satellite TV. Since he proposed to introduce Qin Feng's traffic station before, the early ratings were not very good, which made him controversial.
Unexpectedly, with the popularity of "Love Apartment", "Underground Transportation Station" suddenly became popular again.
Therefore, when it was learned that "Bright Sword" was completed and post-production began, Beijing Satellite TV sent Liu Yang over to discuss cooperation, after all, only Liu Yang could directly contact Qin Feng.
"Qin Feng, I won't hide it from you, the main purpose of my coming here is still for the premiere right of "Bright Sword", of course, if you have any requirements, just mention it, I will definitely help you fight for it!" Liu Yang said with an oath.
"This. "This time, it's Qin Feng's turn to speak, to be honest, Beijing Satellite TV is not Qin Feng's first choice, although its ratings are also good.
Qin Feng's favorite this time is actually Mango Channel, a TV station with a wide audience and a young audience, and their ratings are still guaranteed.
One of the important reasons why the ratings of "Bright Sword" in the previous life were so high was because it was broadcast on CCTV.
If "Bright Sword" was broadcast on an ordinary local station at that time, although the ratings would be very high, Qin Feng bet that its average ratings would not have broken ten at all.
The influence of TV stations on TV dramas is still quite big!
"Director Liu, "Bright Sword" still has a month to be produced, isn't it a bit early to talk about this now. Qin Feng politely refused, he believed that Liu Yang could understand what he meant.
Sure enough, Liu Yang played a haha.
"Yes, it's a bit early, and that's also Taili's task. However, Qin Feng, I still hope that you had better think carefully about our Beijing Satellite TV. Liu Yang smiled and said: "This time the station gave me a lot of power to talk, so I don't dare to guarantee anything else, I only dare to guarantee one thing, that is, the conditions given by Beijing Satellite TV will always be the best among all satellite TV stations." ”
Hearing Liu Yang's words, Qin Feng was really moved, he hadn't seen the drama yet, so he dared to guarantee the ticket like this, which can be seen that he was sincere.
"Yes, I will. Although there are not many words, they are also Qin Feng's heart.
"Director Liu, don't worry, no matter what the result is, it will not affect our friendship!"
Liu Yang showed a smile, didn't he come here just for a promise from Qin Feng?
Actually, he also knows that it is very difficult for Beijing Satellite TV to win "Bright Sword", after all, with Qin Feng's current limelight and the attention of "Bright Sword", there are many, many TV stations that want to win this TV series.
Not to mention, Dragon TV, which had cooperated with Qin Feng before, intended to introduce this TV series, and Mango TV also intended to win this TV series.
Moreover, it is said that Huaxia TV also intends to introduce "Bright Sword".
With so many TV stations to compete for, Beijing Satellite TV really does not have an advantage, and it can be said that it has a great disadvantage.
And its only advantage is that it has cooperated with Qin Feng.
From the singer to the traffic station, almost all of it was Liu Yang's relationship, so Beijing Satellite TV extended a helping hand.
That's a heavy human affection.
It's just that Liu Yang is very smart, he didn't directly talk about this favor, but chose to save the country by curves.
Qin Feng gave Liu Yang a promise, so why didn't he want to repay these favors? He would not forget Liu Yang's help to him, but he was just not interested in Beijing Satellite TV.
"With your words, I am relieved, of course, even if we can't cooperate in the end, there will still be opportunities to cooperate in the future. Liu Yang laughed.
Then the two chatted for a while, and Liu Yang left.
………
In the next few days, people came to talk about cooperation one after another, and the coffee seat was getting bigger and bigger.
In front of an office building, a middle-aged man who is about 50 years old is looking at the high-profile office building in front of him.
Since Qin Feng became famous, Qin Feng's company Yanhuang Film and Television Office Building has become a big news point, so there are a lot of paparazzi squatting here every day.
And the purpose of these paparazzi is to shoot big news, of course.
As long as they take some news of Qin Feng, then they can be chic for at least a month or two.
"Hey, look at that guy. Paparazzi called out to his companion and whispered.
Paparazzi B looked in the direction of the paparazzi A's fingers, where Ouyang Channel, the director of Mango Terrace, was looking at the office building.
"Isn't it supposed to be a passerby, what's there to see?" complained Paparazzi B.
"You can see a little more clearly. Paparazzi said patiently, but the movements of his hands were not slow, he took out his camera and took pictures.
Seeing the actions of his companion, Paparazzi B also knew that his companion had discovered a big person.
Paparazzi B looked at it, and suddenly his eyes were straight.
"My good boy, isn't this Ouyang the director of Mango Channel?" shouted the paparazzi.
"Then you don't want to take a quick shot?" said the paparazzi dissatisfied.
"Oh, yes. Paparazzi B also quickly pressed the shutter.
"You say, what is Ouyang here for?" said the paparazzi.
"Who knows, we don't know about the big guys, but just press your shutter. Paparazzi B said.
"Yes, that's right. Paparazzi chimed in.
Not long after Ouyang entered, another car appeared in front of the building, and a middle-aged bald man with a shiny face stepped out of the car.
The man, with a slight arrogance on his face, knew at first glance that he was an arrogant person.
"Look, that's Fang Yuan, the deputy director of Huaxia Channel, why is he here?"
"yes, why did he come here?" the paparazzi were also very puzzled.
"Do you remember, yesterday there were already two TV station directors. The paparazzi suddenly said, "Will they come for the same purpose as those people yesterday?"
"It's true. Paparazzi B nodded in agreement.
"Perhaps, this is a game on the TV side, I have a hunch, a big earthquake, maybe it is about to happen. The paparazzi said affirmatively.
"What are you talking about?" the paparazzi's eyes were bright.
"Yes, it's "Bright Sword"!" Paparazzi said with great certainty.
"Brother, we sent it this time!" Paparazzi B laughed, "As long as we tell the news to those TV stations that didn't come." ”
Not to mention these two crooked paparazzi, Qin Feng was talking cordially with Ouyang at this time.
"Director Ouyang, you are a rare guest, I don't know what made you come to the door in person?" Qin Feng asked, Qin Feng was still very surprised that Ouyang came to the door in person, after all, this is the powerful boss of the local station, and his status is not enough.
"I'm here for Bright Sword. Ouyang said directly, he missed "Love Apartment" last time, and this time after hearing that "Bright Sword" had started filming and post-production, he went out in person, in order to win the show directly in front of others.
The reason why I am optimistic about this drama is also based on my optimism about Qin Feng, and this drama is now popular before it is broadcast, and the popularity is also very high.
"Then what are your chips?" Qin Feng asked when he saw Ouyang getting straight to the point.
"A single episode of 800,000. Ouyang didn't think about it, and directly said a number, regardless of the size of the number.
"Not enough. Qin Feng shook his head and said.
In addition to being a director, Qin Feng is also the CEO of a company, so he has to think about this company.
Now there are more than 200 employees of Yanhuang Film and Television, and a company also feeds hundreds of families.
If the company can't operate, it means that hundreds of people will lose their jobs and rely on their livelihoods.
"A million. Li De's face remained unchanged, and he still said a number.
In this regard, Qin Feng just shook his head and did not speak again.
"One million and two million!" Ouyang still made an offer.
"Director Ouyang, your sincerity has touched me, but it still doesn't work!" Qin Feng shook his head and said.
"En?" This time, Ouyang finally frowned, in his opinion, one million and two hundred thousand to buy an episode of a TV series, this sincerity is big enough, I didn't expect Qin Feng to be so greedy!
Even those drama kings are about the same price.
Although, before, Qin Feng said that "Bright Sword" is definitely comparable to the king of dramas, but after all, it is just talk, and it can't really be taken seriously.
"It's better for Xiao Qin to set a price yourself, but I think you still have to take a long-term view of life, and you can't be too greedy!" Ouyang pressed his temples and said.
"Since I don't know your bottom line, let you tell me yourself. This is Ouyang's thoughts.
The flowers bloom at two ends, one on each branch.
At the same time, the front desk of Yanhuang Film and Television.
"Deputy Director Fang, Mr. Qin is in a meeting, and he can't come out yet, please forgive me. Qin Feng's assistant was explaining something to a balding middle-aged man, with a professional smile on his face.
However, the bald middle-aged man opposite her didn't buy it, but said with a master's appearance: "I don't care what he's doing, tell you, my time is very limited, give your Mr. Qin three minutes, tell him to come out to see me, otherwise, I'll go in and find him by myself." ”
"I'm sorry, our President Qin has ordered, no one can go in without his orders. The assistant explained with all his heart.
"I don't care about him, I can't see anyone for three minutes, so I go in and find him myself. Fang Yuan looked arrogant, not taking the assistant seriously at all.
"You" assistant who has always been a good girl is angry.
"What am I?" Fang Yuan glanced at the assistant and said with a disdainful expression: "You are a small worker, believe it or not, I can let you get out of here today?"
Fang Yuan was domineering, completely treating this place as his territory.
"Good, good, very good. The assistant laughed angrily: "Don't you want to see Mr. Qin?" Okay, I'll take you to see him!"
Inside the office.
"Director Ouyang, I won't tell you, this time, I plan to bet on the ratings and make a bet with you. Qin Feng said with a smile.
"Bet?" Ouyang's brows furrowed, thinking that Qin Feng would open his mouth, as an elderly man in his fifties, Ouyang was quite disgusted with betting.
"Yes, it's a bet. Qin Feng smiled.
"Bang bang bang!" just then, there was a knock on the door.
Qin Feng frowned, he didn't like to be disturbed when he was talking to a guest.
Ouyang showed a kind smile and said, "It seems that you have something to be busy, you should be busy first, leave me alone." ”
"I'm sorry. Qin Feng showed an apologetic look.
"Come in. Qin Feng's tone was not good.
Faye Wong walked in, but her face was not good-looking.
Seeing the assistant like this, Qin Feng, who was still a little angry just now, suddenly became calm.
Faye Wong is a person who understands the general situation, and under normal circumstances, she would not be like this.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Qin Feng asked.
"Mr. Qin, the person in charge of Huaxia Station is here, but?" the assistant stopped talking.
"It's just what?" Qin Feng asked.
"Hehe, Assistant Wang, who is here?" asked Ouyang with a smile.
"It's Fangyuan. The assistant replied.
"Oh, it's him. Ouyang showed a look that was exactly what he was.
"Captain Ouyang knows about him?" Qin Feng's expression moved, and he asked.
"I know some, he is just a gentleman, and he can have his current status and status, completely relying on the support of his father. Ouyang seemed to think of something, and said: "Well, his temper is not very good, and his reputation is not good." ”
"Hmm. Knowing that Huaxia Taiwan actually sent a gentleman here, Qin Feng's excitement at the beginning also dissipated all at once.
"Hehe, I didn't expect Huaxia Taiwan to send such a person over. Qin Feng sneered.
"He's supposed to be here to gild. Ouyang explained: "Under normal circumstances, if there is a TV series that can be broadcast on the prime time of Huaxia TV, those TV series will agree, and even if the cost is lower, they will try their best to do it." ”
"After all, the foundation of Huaxia Taiwan is there. ”
"Of course, some people are different. Ouyang looked at Qin Feng and said meaningfully.
Obviously, Ouyang was talking about Qin Feng.
"I see, thank you for your advice. Qin Feng said.
"Please also ask Director Ouyang to wait here for five minutes, I will solve some troubles and come back. Qin Feng said.
This sentence gave Ouyang a very obvious signal, that is, I, Qin Feng, would not choose Huaxia Terrace.
In Qin Feng's opinion, Huaxia Taiwan sent a gentleman here to discuss "Bright Sword" with him, which is completely a manifestation of insincerity.
Since there is no sincerity, then what is there to talk about?
"You are Qin Feng?" Seeing Qin Feng come out, Fang Yuan asked very arrogantly.
"Yes, I am, are you?" Qin Feng asked in a deep voice.
"I am Director Fang of Huaxia Channel, our station is optimistic about your drama, and I came to you to discuss the broadcast of "Bright Sword". Fang Yuan said, "You quote a price." ”
Qin Feng stretched out three fingers.
"Thirty thousand?" Fang Yuan showed a very sensible look and said, "Very good, I agreed, happy cooperation!"
"Haha, if those people knew that I won the "Bright Sword" for 30,000 yuan, would they dare to say that I was a gentleman?" Fang Yuan thought beautifully.
Qin Feng looked at this fool and shook his head, and said in a deep voice, "It's not thirty thousand. ”
Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then said in surprise: "Three thousand?!"
Fang Yuan's fat face was about to burst into laughter.
Three thousand and one episodes, this is a profitable business, if his competitors knew about it, they wouldn't envy him to death.
"Xiao Qin, you are very good, very sensible, come to me directly if you have something in the future!" Fang Yuan said with a smile.
This time, it was Qin Feng's turn to have black lines on his face, how stupid would he have to be to think of the number three thousand.
"This IQ is really hurting. Qin Feng muttered to himself.
"Well, Xiao Qin, what did you say?" Fang Yuan was still immersed in the fantasy that he had made a big business,
Didn't come to his senses.
"I said, it's not three thousand!" Qin Feng said loudly.
"Eh?" At this moment, Fang Yuan sobered up, neither thirty thousand nor three thousand, how much was that?
It certainly won't be three hundred!
300 yuan to buy an episode of a TV series, Nima, tease me, the screenwriter doesn't dare to make it up like this!
Although Fang Yuan was relatively stupid, he was not so stupid.
Fang Yuan felt that he had been tricked, and asked with a gloomy face, "Oh?
"Three million episodes!" Qin Feng's words were not shocking, and he was frightened at once.
Fang Yuan's fat meat trembled with fright.
"Are you kidding me?" Fang Yuan exploded, three million dramas were about the same, three million episodes were simply playing him like a monkey.
Fang Yuan asked, "Ma, dare to trick me, do you know who I am?"
"Hehe, who else could you be? Qin Feng sneered.
"Hahaha!" everyone who heard the fat pig laughed.
Isn't it, the square circle in front of you really has the potential of a fat pig.
"You, you're good!" Fang Yuan laughed angrily, "I want to see how long you can jump." ”
Fang Yuan threw down a cruel word and broke out directly.
"Mr. Qin, this is not good. "Although the assistant doesn't like Fang Yuan, he is always a powerful figure in Huaxia Taiwan, and it is not good to do this after all.
"It's okay, it's just a fat pig, how big a wave can it make?" Qin Feng said with a nonchalant expression.
"I'm sorry, I made Director Ouyang wait for a long time. Qin Feng smiled, with a slight apology on his face.
"Mr. Qin's big deal is important. Ouyang said leisurely.
"It's not a big deal, it's just a little chord. Qin Feng said: "Director Ouyang, are we here to talk about business." ”
"Serious business?" Director Ouyang showed a slightly meaningful look: "Okay, then you can talk about it first." ”
"This time, I don't charge a penny for the cost of "Bright Sword", I only need a cut of the profits from advertising revenue. Qin Feng said something earth-shattering.
"Brush!"
Ouyang stood up at once, what does the TV station rely on to make a profit, doesn't it just rely on advertising? This involves the core interests of the TV station.
Why is it that the higher the ratings of a TV series, the higher the profitability of the TV station?
is because the ratings of the TV series are high, and her advertising costs have also increased, and the profit of advertising fees is far greater than the investment in TV series!
"Be clear. Ouyang realized that he was a little out of shape, and said calmly.
"Director Ouyang, please sit, how tired you are from standing. Qin Feng pulled Ouyang to sit down.
"Director Ouyang, I won't tell you, my plan is like this, below three points, I won't charge a cent, break three points, you give me five percent of the advertising cost, four points, ten percent, five points, fifteen percent, six points, twenty percent, seven points, twenty-five percent, eight points, thirty percent, nine points, thirty percent, thirty percent, ten points, fifty percent!"
"What, ten points is fifty percent, this is impossible!" Ouyang said immediately.
Seeing Ouyang's reaction, Qin Feng was not angry but happy, which meant that Ouyang's heart had been shaken.
"Director Ouyang, the gap between breaking nine points and breaking ten points, you don't need to say it, you should be clear. Qin Feng said in a deep voice.
As the director of the TV station, Ouyang certainly knows that although the gap between them is a point, the gap between them is like a heavenly difference.
"And, I'm talking about average ratings, not the highest ratings. Qin Feng said slowly.
"What?" Even Ouyang, who was used to seeing strong winds and waves, couldn't help but widen his eyes.
The look of surprise was palpable.
"You, what you said is true?" Ouyang swallowed his saliva and asked.
The gap between the highest ratings and the average ratings is still huge.
"If it's an average rating, this can be there. "Ouyang is really moved at this moment.
"The big husband is out of his word, and the horse is difficult to chase. Looking at Ouyang Yi's expression, Qin Feng had already shown a victor's smile.
Qin Feng knew how popular the drama "Bright Sword" was in his previous life, and the average rating exceeded ten.
Therefore, what Qin Feng really values is the advertising revenue of this broken ten.
"What about breaking eleven points?" Ouyang didn't know why he asked this, but he still asked.
"Fifty-five percent of the profits. Qin Feng smiled and said, "Twelve points is sixty percent, and thirteen points are sixty-five percent." ”
Qin Feng didn't say the latter words, because he also didn't believe that the average ratings of "Bright Sword" could reach fourteen points.
Ouyang sat down, pondered for a moment, and finally, said with a firm face: "Hehe, Xiao Qin, I have to say that this proposal of yours has moved me, then, let's do it." ”
The reason why Ouyang said this is actually because he figured out the fact that the higher the ratings of "Bright Sword", the more advertising fees he charges, and the more money he earns, although he has to divide this money a lot, but so what. Anyway, it's not his money, it's the blood of those cold-blooded advertisers.
Moreover, if the ratings of "Bright Sword" are really so high, although he has lost a large amount of advertising money, he still has other income, and his days of prosperity are just around the corner.
Thinking of this, the conversation between Ouyang and Qin Feng became even more eager.
"Xiao Qin, how long will it take for "Bright Sword" to be released, you show me a bottom, and I can arrange a date. Ouyang asked, which also showed that he agreed to Qin Feng's bet.
"Hehe, Director Ouyang, there's almost a month left, but before that, I can give you some promotional trailers. ”
Ouyang's eyes lit up, this proposal is not bad, no matter what TV series, if you want to be popular, you must first warm up, and this warm-up is the promotional trailer.
Of course, this product can basically only be burned to the first few episodes, and the later depends on the quality of the film.
In the previous life, there were many TV series that had very good trailers and attracted a large number of viewers, and the ratings of the first few episodes were really good, but the later ones were tragic, and the ratings were getting worse day by day.
In the final analysis, the quality of the film is too poor, just like Adou who can't be helped.
"Okay, your trailer, how long is it?" asked Ouyang.
"Not much, two and a half minutes. Qin Feng said with a smile.
"Shhh Ouyang gasped and said, "You don't have much?"
Ouyang looked at Qin Feng with a reproachful face, and said: "The trailer of a general TV series is only one minute, you are good, and it will take two and a half minutes directly." ”
In this regard, Qin Feng could only smirk.
He knows that this time is indeed a bit long, but there is no way to do it, if you want the ratings of the first episode to be high, you can only rely on promotional videos.
It's all for the 50 percent of the advertising commission.
"Director Ouyang, as the saying goes, if you can't bear the child, you can't trap the wolf. If you want the ratings of the TV series to shock the whole of China, then, the cost still has to go down. Qin Feng said solemnly.
The whole truth that Qin Feng said, Ouyang also understood, but this time was still a bit too much.
Playing the promotional video of "Bright Sword" means that his advertising revenue will be reduced a lot.
"Okay, I'll go crazy with you. After thinking about it for a long time, Ouyang finally agreed.
Ouyang is a person who does great things after all, and he still has the courage to do this, otherwise he would not have personally come to the door to communicate with Qin Feng this time.
Ouyang even dared to sign the contract for the shocking advertising commission, could his courage be low?
Hearing Ouyang's assurance, Qin Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that Ouyang would not agree, in that case, he would have to cut the length of the promotional video.
"Luckily, he agreed. Qin Feng said to himself in his heart.
"Director Ouyang, happy cooperation!" Qin Feng stretched out his right hand and said.
"It was a pleasure to work with. Ouyang smiled and said, "Good boy, how do I feel your way." ”
Ouyang seemed to think of something, and said with a smile, in fact, he was also very emotional, how long had it been, and Qin Feng had been able to bargain with him face-to-face.
"Eh, is there one?" Qin Feng pretended not to know and said.
The two looked at each other and let out a big laugh that only they knew.
