Chapter 304: Free things are the most expensive

"Morning! Brother Cao!"

Nodding and saying hello, Cao Wu went straight to Niu Li's office, but he didn't see her.

Batu was lying on the sofa playing with his mobile phone, and when he saw him come in, he didn't get up, just said hello, and continued to stare at the phone silly.

Lele and Qingsong said in the group that they would arrive in the afternoon, but Batu arrived quite early.

"Where's Sister Li?" Cao Wu sat across from him and asked.

"The deputy director of HN TV came over and she went to the airport to pick them up. ”

"Ahead of schedule?" Cao Wu heard Niu Li talk about it, because JS Satellite TV couldn't get a result from the discussion for a long time, she had already arranged for someone to contact HN Satellite TV, but I didn't expect HN TV to be so active, and I came directly to the magic capital to find Xinghai.

Seeing that Batu was only holding his mobile phone, Cao Wu was a little puzzled and asked, "What are you happy about?

"No one. Batu rolled over.

"Something is wrong! something is wrong!" Cao Wu raised an eyebrow and stepped forward, trying to take Batu's mobile phone.

Batu hid his phone behind him, and shouted inwardly: "What are you doing?

"What are you hiding? show me!" Cao Wu stepped forward and pressed him: "What bad things did you secretly do behind our backs?

"Don't, don't make trouble, I'll confess, I'll confess. Batu smiled and took out his phone.

"Don't tell anyone else!" Batu said mysteriously: "This time I went back to my hometown and met a girl, a new teacher from my brother's school, who teaches English, and looks beautiful. ”

"That's your brother's teacher!" Cao Wu laughed and joked with him.

"Go, my brother has graduated, okay?" said Batu with a smile, "and I'm a year older than her!"

"Do you have a photo?" Cao Wu was quite curious, what kind of immortal could actually subdue Batu's fierce horse.

Batu smiled, opened the girl's circle of friends, found a photo, and showed it to Cao Wu.

It's really beautiful, Cao Wu patted Batu on the shoulder: "Confirmed the relationship?"

"How can it be so fast? It's just a matter of knowing. Batu took back his phone and said with a smile: "We're chatting!"

Cao Wu shook his head and sighed: "Negative man, have you forgotten Naren, who once swore an oath?"

"Damn, it's all a joke from that year. Batu smiled: "But speaking of which, I still see her when I go back this time, and it is different from when I was in high school, and it has changed a lot." ”

"Of course, they're national champions, seeded players. ”

Batu nodded and said, "I met her, she has already gone to Osaka to prepare for this year's World Judo Championships." ”

Cao Wu was surprised and said, "Yes? It seems that after Ishii Hui retired, there are few young players in the new generation who are particularly dominant! Naren may really be able to win a world championship this time!"

As a sport that originated in East Asia, judo has been won by East Asians all year round. The champion of each year is either fake or Chinese.

The two chatted, and Cao Wu also took out his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to Naren, cheering her on and wishing her a good result.

However, she estimated that she was training and did not reply.

"By the way, have you coaxed Fang Luxiao over there?" Batu suddenly remembered the purpose of Cao Wu's trip to the capital.

"Alright. Cao Wu suddenly stretched out his right hand and raised his middle finger at him.

Batu was stunned for a moment, then noticed the ring on his middle finger, and jumped up directly: "Wow shit! You're not a girl, aren't you? It's too ruthless to use this trick, right?"

"The trick works wonders!"

"Yes, yes!" Batu laughed, "Or you play big!"

As he was talking, Xiaobai pushed the door and came in.

"Huh, Brother Cao, are you here?"

"Just arrived, Mr. Niu is back?"

"Hmm" Xiaobai came to the table to find the documents, and replied, "Accompany Director Liu to the conference room, you can go too!"

"Let's go. Cao Wu got up and waved at Batu.

The two walked towards the conference room and happened to run into Zhang Rong.

"I was just about to call you!" Zhang Rong stepped forward: "Mr. Niu asked me to inform you to participate in the meeting." ”

Niu Li, Sun Xiang, and Lao Dong were already in the conference room, and Cao Wu and the others entered the conference room, and they saw them chatting happily with Deputy Director Liu who was sitting opposite.

"Hello Liu Tai!" Cao Wu and the two greeted politely.

Deputy Director Liu's posture was very low, and he took the initiative to get up and shake hands with them: "Hello, you are all the pride of our Xiangcheng!"

"You're lifted. Batu hurriedly said modestly.

After a polite gesture, everyone sat down, and Deputy Director Liu also spoke again.

"We came here with sincerity. The relationship between Xinghai culture and Xiangcheng is very deep, so let's not talk about the scene. If Xinghai Culture chooses to cooperate with our station, we are willing to give up five points of advertising costs as production input. ”

Cao Wu was stunned, HN station is willing to share the advertising fee? No, right? What trouble is there in Taiwan?

He didn't know what Niu Li and the other party were talking about, so he sat aside and watched silently.

Niu Li was not satisfied with this condition: "Director Liu, since you said it directly, I won't hide it." To be honest, your conditions are too harsh. At present, most of the upfront investment costs for the production of variety shows in China are jointly funded by TV stations and cooperative enterprises, and there has never been a situation where enterprises have invested alone. ”

"You must know that the production cost of a variety show starts at tens of millions, and it costs hundreds of millions to invite a few more stars, such a large amount of money is not something that can be taken out casually. ”

Deputy Director Liu nodded and said, "I can also understand your difficulties, but you also know our hardships, and there is really no way." We can vouch for you in the name of the TV station, and the usage fee of the equipment venue can also be reduced accordingly. ”

Cao Wu was a little puzzled, what difficulties did HN TV encounter?

Niu Li still shook her head and said: "Director Liu, I won't tell you, I have been busy preparing for the lawsuit with Colombia recently, and this matter was quite big some time ago, you should have heard about it." If this lawsuit is lost, Xinghai will have to compensate them tens of millions of dollars in liquidated damages, and our capital chain is also very tight!"

Deputy Director Liu's face was as usual, but he didn't speak, obviously a little unhappy.

After a pause, he suddenly slapped the pen in his hand on the table and said: "In this way, Mr. Niu, I will also give you a bottom, the station is indeed unable to come up with money now, and we can give up to 10% of the proportion of advertising fees, which is our bottom line." ”

Niu Li thought for a while and said with a smile: "Director Liu, that's the case, our company really wants to do the variety show sector as soon as possible, if your station can promise us a few conditions, we don't need a penny of advertising money." ”

"Oh?" Deputy Director Liu frowned.

Free stuff is the most expensive.

"But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”
