Chapter 421: The Struggle is Coming

After finishing the matter of Guanghui mobile phone, Jiang Hui went to OFILM, which had just been acquired, to communicate with the company's management, and at the same time laid out the company's discovery route.

Although most of the core components of Guanghui mobile phone at the beginning used international brands, Jiang Hui also hopes to support the development and growth of group enterprises or other domestic suppliers as much as possible, so as to avoid being stumped when Guanghui mobile phone threatens some opponents.

Leaving Shanyu and Tang Minghua, Dai Fuqian and a few others in Shenzhen City to continue to deal with the matter of the glorious drone and the glorious mobile phone, Jiang Hui returned to the imperial capital first.

"Come, open it and take a look, what do you think?", as soon as Jiang Hui returned to the office, He Ling came over with a USB flash drive.

"What is it?", Jiang Hui asked as he took the USB flash drive.

"The first five episodes of "Struggle", I think it's pretty good, you can also give some advice", He Ling said.

"Edited so quickly?", Jiang Hui said.

"A TV series is not like a movie, we don't have to wait until it's all filmed before editing, and when we're about a third of the way through the shooting, the post-editing work begins. By the time it is finished in a few days, our finished film will be coming out," He Ling said.

The TV series of the Celestial Empire are all filmed for forty or fifty episodes, and after all the filming is completed, they are sold to TV stations together. The United States first shoots a few episodes and shows them on TV, looks at word of mouth, and then shoots while broadcasting. When filming, you can also refer to the audience's taste to determine the direction of the plot.

It can be seen from this that TV series can be edited while filming. As for why it can't be played while filming in the Celestial Empire, this is mainly due to the influence of the censorship system, and it is difficult to say whose practice is better.

"Have you contacted the TV station?", Jiang Hui said as he clicked on the video.

"It's in contact, but it's not settled yet," He Ling said.

The first episode of "Struggle" basically unfolded all kinds of foreshadowing of the entire plot. Lu Tao, Gao Qiang, Xiang Nan and Huazi are about to graduate from college, at the graduation ceremony, Lu Tao was beautiful because of his excellent studies, but Gao Qiang didn't even get a degree because of cheating in the exam. Gao Qiang's father reprimanded his son for being unproductive, and Gao Qiang, who fell into despair, committed suicide by jumping off a building. When Huazi was eating loose meals, he had an argument with the pig's head on the adjacent table, and the two did not know each other. Lu Tao has a good impression of his girlfriend Milley's friend Charlene, and Lu Tao confesses to him successfully. Charlene wanted to cut off her love affair with Lu Tao and go to France, but she fell into it......

A good beginning is more important than any advertising promotion. Jiang Hui finished the first episode seriously.

"Teacher Li, please stay. We are reluctant to you, very, very reluctant to you, but we must tell you, we must leave you, we must go to work, we must fall in love, we must struggle, this matter is urgent, we cannot wait for a day, please accept our last greetings before leaving".

……

The classic lines and familiar words made Jiang Hui think that he was already a junior.

Jiang Hui feels that one of the main reasons why "Struggle" has attracted everyone's attention in his previous life is that it is relatively close to our lives. In addition, it grasps the breath of the times, or more accurately grasps the psychology of these young people in modern times, especially the psychological state of this generation of college students after graduation, as well as their state of life and emotions. For this reason, when Jiang Hui wrote the outline of the script and the screenwriting team improved the script, they strengthened the lines and plot in this regard.

Seeing Milai again, and seeing Charlene starring Xu Yixin, Jiang Hui felt quite touched.

"How about the price of Imperial Capital TV?", Jiang Hui asked.

"They think that our drama basically has no stars, and the leading actors are not famous, so the price is 200,000 for one episode," He Ling said.

In the current Celestial Empire TV series, the actor's appearance price has not been hyped up by Xiao Xianrou, and the top TV drama actors are only paid 150,000 episodes, such as Xu Yixin, who is almost completely famous, although he plays the protagonist, the salary is only 11,000 episodes.

To shoot a TV series with the theme of "Struggle", the cost of actors is less than 300,000 per episode, and the overall shooting cost is less than 800,000, which is still Jiang Hui's requirement for fine production. "Struggle" has a total of thirty-two episodes, and considering the product placement advertisements of Audi cars, etc., Glorious Film and Television only spent less than 20 million.

So although Imperial Capital Satellite TV only offered 200,000 episodes, a total of 6.4 million. If Guanghui Film and Television sells the first round of broadcast rights to three or four TV stations, the cost will be recovered. But Jiang Hui knows best how popular "Struggle" will be, so the ministry wants those TV stations to take advantage of this.

"You can discuss it with Imperial TV, Shenzhen TV and Shanghai TV, and we will choose a flexible way. If the ratings for Entente are less than 5%, we sell them for 100,000 per episode and allow them to reair it once. If the ratings of "Struggle" are higher than 5% and less than 1%, then we ask for 300,000 per episode. If it's above 1% and below 5%, then we're asking for 600,000 per episode. If it's higher than 5% and less than 2%, then it's a million per episode. And so on, for every 5% increase, gradually increase by 200,000, 300,000, and 400,000...", Jiang Hui said.

Ratings refers to the percentage of the number of people who watch a program in a certain period of time to the total number of viewers, that is: ratings = the number of people who watch a program / the total number of viewers.

Due to the increase in the number of television stations, the increase in entertainment projects for the common people, and the development of the Internet, the ratings of TV dramas in the Celestial Empire are not like those of the eighties and nineties, with tens of percent at every turn, and even more than 90 percent of the ratings that are terrifying to death.

In these years, a TV series that can exceed 2% of the ratings is considered very popular, and it is completely worth spending more than one million to introduce an episode. In fact, the ratings of the vast majority of TV dramas are no more than 5%, especially those films that are shoddy and have no stars, and they can't even reach 1% of the ratings. This is also the reason why many companies have watched part of "Struggle", although they think it is good, but they still do not offer a high price.

"It's a good idea, I don't think you might be able to sell too many TV stations in the first round if you use your method, I think two will be enough," He Ling said.

"No problem, you go and talk about it, and let them enjoy the pain and happiness when the time comes," Jiang Hui said with a smile.

"Well, when the time comes, we will also put an atomic bomb on the domestic TV drama market, so that everyone can see what a good TV series is," He Ling said.

Just when Jiang Hui and He Ling were chatting about "Struggle", various TV stations were also talking about the promotion of "Struggle" by Guanghui Film and Television.
