"Welcome Director Zhou......"

"Welcome to Director Yu......"

"Welcome, welcome. ”

“……”

In mid-November, Xingchen Dahai, representatives of various David TVs, came to participate in the viewing meeting of "Wulin Gaiden", Wang Xiaobai, Liu Wenya, Xue Ning and other high-level executives of Xingchen Dahai came to greet them.

After a year and a half of development, Xingchen Dahai has finally changed from a grass platform team of big cats and kittens to a regular company.

Not counting the crew members who have been grouped every time, the number of people in the company has officially exceeded 300 people.

In the past, the five-story office building looked very spacious, but with the gradual improvement of the department, more and more people joined the company, and the space was seriously insufficient. With so many people crammed together, it was already difficult to have one seat for each person, so they had to move chairs in and huddle together.

In the past, Wang Xiaobai occupied the fifth floor exclusively as his president's office.

But slowly, the general manager's office was also moved to the fifth floor.

Now it is even more exaggerated, the accounting department, the personnel department, and the copyright department are crowded together on the fifth floor, and Wang Xiaobai's office space is compressed.

The special effects studio of "The Return of the Great Sage" hasn't come in yet, and if it does, there will be no place.

After all, there are a lot of big equipment in the special effects studio.

Liu Wenya has already proposed to buy a new office building, and in one breath proposed to buy at least 2000-3000 square meters, and the location is even more likely to be in Pudong.

Wang Xiaobai is resolutely opposed.

He checked, and now the average price of office buildings in Pudong District is about 30,000, which is still remote.

If you want to see a scenery on the Bund, it is more expensive, starting at 50,000 yuan, generally around 100,000 yuan. If you want to meet Liu Wenya's requirements, you have to start with 100 million.

The landlord's family has no surplus food.

But Liu Wenya was very determined to buy a house, so she had no choice but to ask Wang Xiaobai to move her eyes to the south.

Liu Wenya asked him if he wanted to buy it in Songjiang?

Wang Xiaobai said, move again.

Liu Wenya immediately became angry and said: "I'm in Jiaxing, and I'm out of Jiangcheng! Okay, you big chairman, don't worry about this kind of trivial matter, just leave it to me!"

Wang Xiaobai was very hard and knew that he couldn't save this money.

Fortunately, it is a fixed property after buying it, and it can appreciate in the future.

It cannot appreciate in value, and it is also a fixed asset.

The meat rots in the pan.

A group of people were welcomed into the company, and Wang Xiaobai chatted with the heads of several David TVs.

Soon, the viewing party began.

Although "Wulin Gaiden" is shoddy and low-cost, the acting skills of several leading actors are online, coupled with an extremely unique script, and its own style has conquered the bigwigs in the film buying department here.

They watched and communicated, and from time to time they were amused by the plot and laughed.

After watching four episodes in a row, Zhou Changxiong sighed and said: "Yes, this drama is very good, and it is another classic!"

"Xiaobai is so powerful, it is really awe-inspiring to be able to write such an excellent script. ”

"If this continues, it will be very sad for my peers in both movies and TV series. ”

“……”

These people can sit in the position of the bigwig of the film buying department, which represents the highest vision in the industry.

They are full of praise for "Wulin Gaiden", admire Wang Xiaobai, but are full of fear of the sea of stars under the leadership of Wang Xiaobai.

No way, this company is too demonic.

make movies, movies are big hits;

filmed TV series, and the ratings of TV series remained high;

Filming variety shows, variety shows are also popular.

What is the hottest variety show in the country at present?

It's not the happy logging tiredness that has been popular for 20 years, but "Chicken Strips", which has become a reality show that countless celebrities and big names are vying to be on.

The sea of stars created the first year of reality shows, and all David TV is also groping, trying to keep up.

"Guys, let's talk about the price. ”

Zhou Changxiong said.

The crowd calmed down, and then gathered around and whispered to each other.

Finally, as Wang Xiaobai guessed before, Zhou Changxiong said: "Mr. Wang, the quality of this "Wulin Gaiden" is beyond our expectations, so our ratings for "Wulin Gaiden" are estimated to be about 2-2.5%......"

Zhou Changxiong's ratings for "Wulin Gaiden" are highly estimated, because this TV series is different from "Soldier" and "Conquest", which only have twenty or thirty episodes, and he has eighty episodes. The more episodes, the longer the cultivation and deep cultivation of the market, and the more viewership will grow.

The ratings of 2%-2.5% are just their conservative estimates.

Zhou Changxiong continued: "It's hard for any of us here to eat such a feature-length masterpiece, so we chose to compete by buying out the first round of broadcast rights by four satellite TV stations. As for the price of a single episode, the intended price we give is 2.6 million per episode......"

2.6 million episodes, a total of 80 episodes, which means that 200 million is in hand.

But this is just the reserve price they gave, and Liu Wenya and others do not agree.

So, the two sides began negotiations.

After more than an hour of negotiations, the final result of the negotiation became that the number of premiere platforms increased to 6, Tomato Channel, Toilet Station, CCTV, Beijing Satellite TV, Su TV and Zhejiang TV, and the salary for a single episode also changed from 2.6 million to 3 million per episode, so that a total of 240 million was received.

However, this remuneration is not borne by each family equally, but it was premiered on four platforms: Tomato Channel, Toilet Station, CCTV and Zhejiang TV, and rebroadcast by Beijing Satellite TV and Suzhou Provincial Satellite TV.

Thus, the most expensive TV series in history was born.

Wang Xiaobaile went crazy.

This is only the first round of broadcast rights, if you count the second and third rounds, as well as the online broadcast rights, the total cost of "Wulin Gaiden", which is only 10 million, has to earn at least 500 million, a rate of return of 50 times.

Although it is not as crazy as the movie, in the TV series, it is already a chasm that is difficult to cross.

However, Wang Xiaobai also knows that Chinese TV dramas have been used for decades, and it is rare to have one less classic TV series like this.

……

The matter of "Wulin Gaiden" has come to an end, and the next priority is "The Richest Man in Xihong City".

In less than two years, Xingchen Dahai has produced eight movies in a row, and he is already very experienced in film grouping.

Finally, on November 18, 2020, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" started filming at a film and television base in Jiangcheng.

"All the departments are ready, and in five minutes they are ready for the start-up ceremony......"

At the scene of the commotion, the heads of various departments were organizing, so that the chaotic scene gradually became orderly.

Wang Xiaobai, Chu Tiange, Lu Jiayi and other main creators gathered together.

After a while, the on-site production director came and said, "Director Wang, it's all ready, it's time for the start-up ceremony." ”

Wang Xiaobai nodded and walked to the scene with a group of main creators.

There was no opening ceremony for Chinese movies before, and they all learned from the people in Xiangjiang, mainly to please the winner.

However, with the development of decades, this ritual has changed from the original feudal superstition to a practice.

Several people took their positions and bowed to the shrine where the three animals were placed, holding incense.

"Please Director Wang, Chu Tiange...... Cut it forward. ”

"Licheng!"

""The Richest Man in Xihong City" is officially launched!"

With a shout, in a round of applause, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" was officially launched.

After the ceremony, Wang Xiaobai was ready to start shooting the first shot, and all departments were busy in an orderly manner.

"Production Director ......"

He shouted.

"Director, what are you calling me for?"

The director of production walked over.

Wang Xiaobai said: "Hurry up and get the teams ready, and we will start shooting the first shot in five minutes." What does this mess look like? ”

Listening to Wang Xiaobai's anger, the production director didn't dare to be verbose, slipped over, and shouted at this and that: "You, you, and you, what are you doing, the director said that filming will start in five minutes...... Be honest with me...... If there's another mess, see how I clean you up......"

Under the organization of the production director, the scene slowly returned to order.

Wang Xiaobai was about to talk to Chu Tiange, but at this time, a person walked over, put his hand on his shoulder, and said, "Brother, brother......"

"Who?" Wang Xiaobai was a little impatient.

"I, Yun Yang, we've just met. Yun Yang pointed to his nose and said to Wang Xiaobai.

"Oh, you, what are you doing here? If you play with me, forget it, I'm going to start filming soon, I don't have time to accompany you, I'll talk about it next time." Wang Xiaobai was too lazy to take care of him, he just wanted to drive him away.

"Brother, I'm not here to play with you. ”

"That's?"

"Brother, didn't you say last time that you wanted to find me a role in this movie and let me play against Chu Tiange? No, I'm here. Yun Yang said with a smile, with a well-behaved face.

It's okay not to mention this, but when Wang Xiaobai mentions it, he remembers how embarrassed he was that day.

His face darkened, and he said, "I said so, but have you forgotten my preconditions?

"I'm trying to get it done, but ...... Isn't that Sister Ah Bing here!" Yun Yang said aggrievedly.

Wang Xiaobai rolled his eyes and said, "That's not over." Hurry up, don't delay me to turn it on. ”

Wang Xiaobai waved his hand.

"Brother, brother, don't be like this, you have a relationship with my sister, and I still talk about your brother-in-law. If you're like this, it's too impersonal......" Yun Yang desperately approached.

Wang Xiaobai is too lazy to take care of him, let alone the "brother-in-law" who can't fight together with eight poles, Lao Mu, this "uncle cousin", is not clearly arranged by me?

"Hurry up, if you don't leave, I'll call Ah Bing......"

Wang Xiaobai said.

Sure enough, Ah Bing's power is still endless.

When Yun Yang heard this, his neck shrunk, and he stepped aside with a sneering expression, but he didn't go far.

Wang Xiaobai is happy, and he is still fighting with me these two times?

It's far from Lao Mu.

"All departments are ready, and it will be turned on immediately......"

"Tiange, Tiange, come here, I'll tell you about the drama again......"

Wang Xiaobai shouted at everyone, and called Chu Tiange over.

Over there, Yun Yang looked at the busy Wang Xiaobai, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Want to kick me away?

No way!

Look how I grind a character out!
