Chapter 198: Charcoal in the Snow

"What are you talking about?" When Zhang Liang just took out his mobile phone and flipped out Li Juhe's phone and was about to call to borrow money cheekily, Shao Xiaomin hurriedly came to his office and told Zhang Liang a great news, which made Zhang Liang a little unsure.

"I said Cherry TV wanted the license to 'The Masked Singer.' ”

"Are they going to make 'The Masked Singer'?"

"Well, a variety show on their satellite TV is about to be released, and the program that will take over has not yet come out, just before the case between Xihang Satellite TV and us, they had the idea of taking over the "Masked Singer" at that time, but because some messy things have not been determined, they have only recently decided, so they contacted us for authorization. ”

Cherry Satellite TV is also a more powerful variety show in the Huaxia Satellite TV circle, but because of the existence of the three giants, Cherry Satellite TV's exit has always been embarrassing, that is, the kind of short man who can be the king, but he can't squeeze into the tall man.

The popularity is not as good as Mango Satellite TV, the financial resources are not as good as Xihang Satellite TV, and the variety show ability is not as good as Dragon TV, which is a relatively embarrassing satellite TV.

There have been a lot of variety shows over the years, but there are not many programs that have really attracted attention. There is not a single program with a rating of more than 2%, and even a handful of programs with a rating of more than 1%.

If you want to turn over and rise, you need a program that can take charge of the situation on its own, but it doesn't have enough variety show ability, and the economic ability is not good, so Cherry Satellite TV has been so embarrassing all these years.

Just when they were at their wit's end, "The Masked Singer" caught their attention!

Originally, it can be said that almost everyone thinks that "The Masked Singer" is a program of Xihang Satellite TV, although it was later collapsed, but the momentary glory it once created will not be forgotten, and many people are still talking about "The Masked Singer", which shows the strength of this show!

As soon as Zhang Liang's lawsuit appeared, everyone knew that this program did not belong to Western Airlines Satellite TV, but to Zhang Liang!

But since this show does not belong to Xihang Satellite TV, Xihang Satellite TV is still a variety show that sits and sings, from the beginning of "Masked Guess the Singer" to the current "Masked Singer Everyone Guess", although in the end "Masked Singer Everyone Guess" withdrew early after the fight of the three giants, but now after changing the broadcast time, the ratings are still good!

And the reason why "Masked Singer Everyone Guesses" failed is actually because it is not "The Masked Singer"!

Many people are paying attention to Zhang Liang's new program "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and this program is indeed shaking the ratings record created by "The Voice of China" again and again, and now the ratings of "Star Challenge" are getting bigger and bigger, which shows the success of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and now people are curious only about whether this variety show, which is also Dragon TV, can break the ratings record of "The Voice".

It's just that almost everyone cares about "Smiling Proud Jianghu", but Cherry Satellite TV focuses on "The Masked Singer"!

Because Xihang Satellite TV's "Masked Singer, Let's Guess", not "The Masked Singer"! And more importantly, the Masked Singer belongs to Zhang Liang instead of Xihang Satellite TV!

Zhang Liang's variety show talent, whether it is "Smiling Proud Jianghu" or "The Masked Singer" is enough to prove that now "The Masked Singer" has been ignored, which is definitely a good turn for Cherry Satellite TV!

At first, I was worried about the copyright of "The Masked Singer", but the result of the lawsuit made this concern disappear; Later, I was worried about the ratings of "The Masked Singer", Xihang Satellite TV, a copycat program, can do this, and naturally eliminated this concern, coupled with the popularity of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", Cherry Satellite TV is more sure of the potential of "The Masked Singer".

After all, Zhang Liang's production must be a high-quality product!

After that, Cherry Satellite TV learned about the cooperative relationship between Zhang Liang and Dragon TV in many ways, after all, Zhang Liang is now the chief director of Dragon TV's "Smiling Proud Jianghu", no matter how you say it, it can be regarded as a person from Dragon TV, and it is somewhat difficult to dig up the wall like this. Later, it was found that Zhang Liang just cooperated with a variety show, and did not sign any sales contract with Dragon TV.

That's it!

Although Cherry Satellite TV hopes that Zhang Liang can also come over as the chief director or something, how can I say that Zhang Liang is busy enough now just for "Smiling Proud Jianghu", not to mention that he is still tossing about animation recently, and it is estimated that he will not be able to be busy as the chief director of a variety show.

So all Cherry TV needs is an authorization from Zhang Liang!

Although they are not as famous as Mango Satellite TV, and although they are not as rich as Xihang Satellite TV, they have the determination to do a good job in "The Masked Singer"!

And they are not as shameless as Xihang Satellite TV!

They want to use their sincerity to create "The Masked Singer", so that this variety show, which has almost become a ratings myth, will shine on Cherry TV! And Cherry TV will also rely on this show to occupy a place in the variety show circle!

Therefore, when Cherry Satellite TV contacted Zhang Liang's studio, it also expressed enough sincerity, absolutely not engaging in shady, absolutely in accordance with Zhang Liang's competition system arrangement, absolutely not changing the settings, and even any ideas and creative modifications were reviewed by Zhang Liang as soon as possible, and they were adopted only after they were passed.

Full of sincerity, but also expressed urgency.

And in order not to have an impact on the ratings of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", the broadcast time of Cherry Satellite TV will definitely not overlap with "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and in order to "avenge" Zhang Liang, Cherry Satellite TV even decided to broadcast it at the same time as "Masked Singer Everyone Guess", so that everyone knows what is genuine and what is a copycat!

It's just that compared to the sincerity of Cherry Satellite TV, Zhang Liang only cares about one thing.

"How much can I give?"

After all, he's going crazy now!

It's just that in order to show its sincerity, Cherry Satellite TV still took the initiative to propose a way to share, and was even willing to give Zhang Liang 15% of the profit share as an authorization fee, which is definitely the highest sharing method in the industry, even if Dragon TV is here, with such an insider as Liu Xinlan, "Smiling Proud Jianghu" only gave Zhang Liang a percent of the income.

But...... For Zhang Liang, what he wants now is cash!

If it weren't for the fact that "Smiling Proud Jianghu" was shared, Zhang Liang wouldn't have been so short of money, after all, the show is not over, how to calculate the income, isn't it?

"Take 20 million and take it, don't divide it or not, Lao Tzu is in a hurry to ask for money. ”

The previous judgment of the Xihang Satellite TV court was also a little more than 20 million, and Cherry Satellite TV is not as good as Xihang Satellite TV in terms of financial resources, and "The Return of the Great Sage" also happens to be short of about 20 million, which can be regarded as popular.

Don't want 15% of the income but are in a hurry to ask for 20 million to fight the fire, Shao Xiaomin is not incomprehensible, but.

Anyway, she is also professional, so she finally reached a licensing agreement with Cherry Satellite TV, and finally Cherry Satellite TV obtained the authorization of "The Masked Singer" with an advance payment of 20 million royalties, and Zhang Liang can finally get 5% of the benefit share of the program.

That is, Shao Xiaomin helped Zhang Liangkeng to share 5% of the profits. 210
