Chapter 261: A Dilemma
The next day, when Li Zihe appeared in front of Cai Ziping again, his attitude became tough.
"Miss Cai, if we can't reach an agreement on the mainland broadcast rights of "Meteor Garden", I regret to inform you that your sequel will not have a chance to be filmed. ”
Li Zihe's words made Cai Ziping stunned for a moment, but in a blink of an eye, Cai Ziping sneered,
"Mr. Li is really joking, does the adaptation rights of the sequel to "Meteor Garden" belong to your family?
Mr. Li, if your company adheres to the spirit of sharing to negotiate the broadcast rights of satellite TV, I really welcome and thank your company for taking a fancy to you, but if your company does not change the current idea of copyright exclusivity, I think there is really no need for our two families to continue talking. ”
Cai Ziping was also a little angry, she didn't see any family that would threaten because she couldn't be exclusive.
"Miss Cai, if you want to confirm what I just said, we can postpone this matter for an hour. Li Zihe got up after speaking, "I'll be back in an hour, Miss Cai, please poop." ”
With the bottom in his heart, Li Zihe said that he would leave, without the slightest hesitation.
It is precisely because of Cai Ziping's importance to the sequel that Li Zihe feels that he has grasped Cai Ziping's weakness.
Without the adaptation copyright of Dongying's previous family, Li Zihe didn't believe that Cai Ziping dared to adapt and shoot the second part without permission.
If Cai Ziping insists on doing this, this is in the treasure island, Li Zihe can make Cai Ziping understand what it means to lose all your money through litigation!
An hour later, Li Zihe returned to the negotiation room on time.
"Okay, Mr. Li, you won, I didn't expect you to be so ruthless, and you actually came from Dongying to draw a salary!" Seeing Cai Ziping again, this spicy and capable hot sister is like a frosted eggplant, and now she has lost her due sharpness.
"Miss Cai, in business, since we are optimistic about your series, we must have considered all aspects, and frankly speaking, we think much more about the IP of this comic than you think. It has even planned a series of film and television works, including movies and anime, to develop. ”
Li Zihe returned to the negotiating table, and this time it was much more relaxed.
"However, Miss Cai, have you ever thought that this may be a good thing for you, our Aurora Culture has always paid attention to win-win or multi-win, and will never let our partners suffer. ”
"Frankly speaking, Ms. Cai's talent is very promising among the top management of our company, and we hope to have the opportunity to reach a more in-depth cooperation. ”
"To put it simply, we have strong financial strength and distribution and promotion capabilities, and I believe Miss Cai also knows that the latest hit movie "Infernal Affairs" is exclusively invested and distributed by our Aurora Culture. ”
"If Miss Cai adheres to the idea of open cooperation, then we Aurora Culture are very happy to reach an in-depth strategic cooperation with Miss Cai to jointly develop the TV drama market. ”
Cai Ziping obviously didn't expect that Xiangjiang, a company, not only took a fancy to her TV series, but also wanted to win it.
However, what Li Zihe said is Cai Ziping's weakness, if it weren't for the lack of funds, she would not have only bought the previous part of the adaptation rights, but not all the adaptation rights, resulting in the current situation of not being able to go up or down.
"In what way are you going to work with me?" Cai Ziping asked.
"Specifically for you to set up an independent studio, we provide financial and operational support, Miss Cai is responsible for the production side, the future part of the revenue will be divided between the two parties after deducting expenses, Miss Cai will take 20% of the net proceeds. ”
This is the condition that Liu Ruoyi set aside for the top directors or producers who have a team, relatively speaking, for the producer or (director), this condition is already very generous.
The producer doesn't pay a penny, which means that he can get 20% of the income without any risk, which seems to be a lot less income than doing it himself, but the account can't be said like this, for example, according to Cai Ziping's ability, there is no problem with filming fifty or sixty episodes of serials a year, but due to funding, operation and other aspects, she may only be able to achieve 20 episodes of serials.
In addition, there is no professional promotion team in operation, and the sales revenue may be a fraction of the cooperation method, and a divine drama like "Meteor Garden" with its own sales attributes is hard to find, Cai Ziping knows that not every drama has this effect.
Cai Ziping was excited, the biggest problem that plagued her was the financial problem, or she would not shrink back from filming "Meteor Garden", and in many ways she took flexible measures due to the budget, making a wealth show drama a bit like a rural tyrant drama (but Miss Cai never thought that in another time and space, she would lead the remake of this drama in the future, and the investment of hundreds of millions of dollars would be even more pitted like a copycat).
This is for her future development route, with a large company like Aurora Culture behind the financial support, then it is really much easier for her to do things, and after excluding a lot of things that she is not good at, she will be more handy in the field she is good at.
The unprecedented success of "Infernal Affairs", Cai Ziping, as an insider, of course knows a lot of information, to be honest, even the success of watching the drama "Infernal Affairs" now is simply a miracle.
Cai Ziping, who is familiar with the difficulties of developing markets across the Taiwan Strait and the three places, knows that many people want a drama to be released simultaneously in the three places at the same time, but few can really achieve the simultaneous release of the three places.
Just like the "Meteor Garden" in her hand, if she can really achieve simultaneous broadcasting in three places, it is unknown how many times her income is greater than now.
But with her ability, it is already very good to be able to promote the gradual promotion in the Asian market step by step, this drama is all in debt, and she must develop through rolling to have the financial resources and ability to leverage the next market.
But in this way, Cai Ziping knew that she had actually lost a lot of business opportunities, and the losses caused by this huge time difference, especially the erosion of the pirated copyright income of video products, were very serious.
How much has the copyright of "Infernal Affairs" been sold for in mainland China? That's an unimaginable astronomical amount for Cai Ziping. If she had such a powerful distribution team, even if "Meteor Garden" was sold for half the price, it would make more money than she is now!
Cai Ziping fell into deep thought, frankly speaking, Miss Cai is a rare genius in idol packaging operation and TV series shooting and production, but in terms of business operation, Miss Cai's financial quotient can only be regarded as average, not even to the passing level, because she has been deceived many times in the shopping mall, and her business operation ability seems to be very amateurish.
Now that there is such a good opportunity in front of her, for a while, Miss Cai doesn't know how to choose whether to be good, refuse or accept?
It's a really nerve-wracking thing.
