Chapter 128, scramble for the premiere rights!
Menghuan?
Jiang Lun searched repeatedly in his mind for a long time, but there was no trace of impression.
But the other party has already reported home, and he may not know where he met when he was recording the show, so he asked with a smile, "Oh, it's Sister Huan!
When Meng Huan heard Jiang Lun call him so, she couldn't help but be overjoyed, and felt that the distance between the two had narrowed a lot, and she said happily, "Didn't you hear that you were going to make a TV series yourself, how about it, has the filming started?"
"Not yet, I'm working on a shooting plan. ”
Jiang Lun's current unanimous tone to the outside world anyway is still in the preparatory stage.
"Oh, have you contacted the broadcast platform, and have you decided which satellite TV it will be broadcast on?"
Meng Huan asked cautiously, this is what she is most concerned about.
"Satellite TV hasn't yet, and I've only been in contact with Boiling Video and Audio so far!"
Jiang Lun answered this point truthfully, Zhao Rong has always been in contact with Boiling Audio, and they urgently need a large number of episodes to fill the film and television library, although the price has not yet been agreed, but the preliminary intention has been negotiated.
Moreover, the birth of the studio and this drama is also based on the invitation of Boiling Video and Audio to Zhao Rong, and the right to broadcast it online must be theirs, as for whether it is broadcast exclusively on the whole network, it depends on the final price.
"Huh?"
Meng Huan's heart was relieved, but she wondered, "Shouldn't you be filming an online drama?"
"That's what it means!" Jiang Lun said, "But it's not a pure online drama, it's still a TV series!"
"Oh!" Meng Huan responded and said with a smile, "The station also just received the news that you are going to make a TV series, I just want to ask, have you sold the first round of broadcast rights of this drama, if not, we are interested in buying the drama." Price is not a problem!"
"That's what happened!"
Jiang Lun smiled, from the moment he received the call, he guessed seven or eight points, and it was really related to the purchase of dramas, so he simply didn't beat around the bush and asked directly. "And how much are you going to give for an episode?"
Meng Huan muttered, "At present, the station has not given a specific quotation, and it depends on how many episodes you have in this drama and the starring lineup." ”
Jiang Lun smiled, "There are eighty episodes in this drama, and as for the starring lineup, I won't tell you, there are no first-line big names, but they are all veteran actors who have participated in dramas for many years." And several leading actors have also participated in many TV series, and they are not newcomers. ”
After hearing this, Meng Huan began to mumble in his heart, and after a rough calculation, he said, "In this case, the price of a single episode may not be too high, but after all, eighty episodes, if the drama is really good, the total price should be more than one thousand five." What about your intentions?"
Jiang Lun said, "The estimate in my heart. It's 200,000 per episode, isn't that a high price?"
Now there are seven or eight hundred thousand TV episodes, or even millions of them, and the quotation of 200,000 yuan, is the production cost itself low?
Meng Huan couldn't help but smile, and said as if he was asking. "It's really not high! In this way, the cost of your drama is not high, and I don't know how it will be filmed in the end. ”
"Whether the effect of the TV series is good or not depends on the ratings, as for the cost. It's still in the budget, so I can't say much, and I'm also quoting a friendly price now, if I wait for the auction to come out and then set the price, it's not this number!"
Now is the era of one drama and two stars, and all 1.5 rounds of follow-up broadcasts are taken, that is, when the first broadcast of satellite TV is halfway through, the second round of satellite TV will start broadcasting.
Jiang Lun said 200,000 yuan, in fact, the real bottom line is that the first broadcast can give 150,000 episodes, after all, there are also network exclusive broadcast rights and advertising fees, according to the current budget of the crew, this price is not a loss, and it can also make a profit.
As for the second round of delivery, it would be very good to reach 100,000 episodes, and the price he dared to ask for was not too high for such a low-cost sitcom.
And if the effect is good, after two rounds of broadcasting, other satellite TV and local stations can continue to sell again, of course, this price is worse again, but it will never be too low.
Meng Huan pondered for a moment before saying, "We definitely want the premiere of your drama, so don't worry, as long as this drama is filmed well, we can negotiate the price again!"
"Okay, then I'll show you the sample when I shoot it!"
Jiang Lun was talking, the mobile phone suddenly vibrate, he glanced at the mobile phone screen, and a third party called in red, it was Liu Xiahui.
immediately said to Meng Huan, "Then Sister Huan, let's contact again, I have a phone call in!"
"Okay, you're busy!" Meng smiled.
As soon as the phone hung up, Jiang Lun immediately picked up Liu Xiahui's call, and said with a smile, "Mr. Liu, do you have something?"
"Who are you talking to? It can't be an advertiser, right?"
Liu Xiahui also smiled, "Let me tell you, there have been more than a dozen advertisers from the company calling to inquire, all looking for your drama to invest, hey! I wondered, you said that you were worried about funds a few days ago, I knew this, when you announced on Weibo that you wanted to shoot a TV series, it is estimated that a large number of investors are looking for you!"
"Mr. Liu laughed, I didn't expect this!"
All this was something Jiang Lun didn't expect, he didn't expect such an effect at all.
But in the choice of advertisers, you have to check it well, and you can't ruin this drama because of money.
These advertisers are also for their own benefit, they throw money in, they will definitely change your drama, implant their ads in the play, if it is a moisturizing and silent soft implant, but if it is that kind of hard implantation, or even directly ask you to introduce their products in the center, it will definitely not work.
At the other end, Liu Xiahui said again, "I don't care about the advertisement, this drama is not the company's case, and the calls to the company will be handed over to Lao Wu to deal with, but as one of the investors, I can still decide some things!"
As soon as he said this, Jiang Lun suddenly became alert and smiled, "Mr. Liu, what decision do you want to make?"
"Satellite TV premiere rights!"
Liu Xiahui slowly spit out these five words, and then said, "An old friend from Beijing Satellite TV called me, and they are willing to buy it for 250,000 yuan per episode!"
"Two hundred and fifty thousand?"
Jiang Lun's heart thumped, like a drum beating, and he also saw the gap between himself and Liu Xiahui in an instant.
I just had a long time grinding with the people of Jiangnan Satellite TV, and I didn't set a price, although Meng Huan didn't say it, but Jiang Lun could hear it, she should have felt that the 200,000 episodes she reported for herself should be a bit high, after all, the total price of the whole drama reached 16 million, which is not a small amount.
But what about Liu Xiahui, he directly brought in a Beijing Satellite TV with a price of 250,000 yuan!
And this is because the other party does not know the cast and the specific plot.
At this price, you can get 20 million for the first round of broadcasts of a TV station alone, and make a net profit of 10 million!
"Really?"
Jiang Lun couldn't hide his joy, "Jiangnan Satellite TV also called me just now, and I also want to buy the premiere rights!"
"How many do they come out of?"
"Hehe! I reported 200,000 episodes, but the other party didn't agree, maybe the price is too high, after all, eighty episodes are not a small amount!"
"It's good if you don't agree, let's authorize Yida to do this, anyway, our contract is clear, and Yida is responsible for the distribution operation, so don't worry about it, I guarantee that you will make a lot of money, and the price of Beijing Satellite TV is already here, if Jiangnan Satellite TV wants to buy the premiere rights, you can let them come over and ask for the price. ”
Liu Xiahui smiled, "The one with the highest price will get it!"
"That's it, I won't get involved in this matter!"
Jiang Lun knows very well in his heart that he can't sell it at this price if he sells it himself, and only Yida and Liu Xiahui can dig out the maximum value of this drama.
The two hung up the phone, and Liu Xiahui picked up his mobile phone and dialed a number to go out.
"Hey, Lao He?"
Liu Xiahui smiled and said, "What I discussed just now, I have a new change here!"
"What's the change?" the person on the other end, who was called Lao He, was obviously nervous, "Brother Hui, I won't fool me, will I?"
"It's not that you don't sell it, it's that someone started to rob you!"
Liu Xiahui wasn't sure whether Jiangnan Satellite TV was willing to pay a higher price to buy it, but he dared to say it.
"Who's going to rob me?"
"Gangnamtai!"
"What?" Lao He was surprised when he heard this, and then smiled, "I expected that someone would rob it, but I didn't expect Jiangnantai to be the first to make a move, it doesn't matter, how much they give, we will always be more than them...... Ten thousand more!"
"You're really slamming the door!" Liu Xiahui smiled, "That's not your money!"
"There are too many flowers, and the above will be checked!"
Lao He said with a smile, "I'll just say that anyway, the price on the contract is five million more than the actual price, just look at the operation!"
"Okay, you moths, let's go golf!"
Liu Xiahui shook his head and sighed, and after hanging up the phone, he called the secretary, "You go and tell the people in the distribution department, the premiere rights of the drama "Wulin Gaiden" will be auctioned next week, and the one with the highest price will get it, by the way, run this drama, fry, you must fry it in the fire!"
"Yes!" the secretary nodded, turning away.
……
……
The next morning, the top ten satellite TV in the country all got an inside message that the premiere rights of "Wulin Gaiden" were being auctioned, and a certain satellite TV had already given a high price of 500,000 yuan for a single episode.
At the same time, the news about "Wulin Gaiden" on the Internet has reached a new high, and the position is not only those film and television forums and microbroadcasts, but also the homepages of major portals, the headlines of various websites, and the informational news videos of various video websites, all of which are related to "Wulin Gaiden".
There are even game companies and animation companies that have even issued documents announcing that they will produce games and animations with the same IP as "Wulin Gaiden".
For a while, those who were still hesitant began to dispatch, secretly contacting Yida and consulting the news of the premiere rights of "Wulin Gaiden".
But without exception, they all got the same reply: the specific situation is announced weekly. (To be continued.) )
