Chapter 242: No One Wants to Buy It
In fact, falling in love at a young age also has the advantage of being young.
That's...
I'm not afraid of being photographed.
After all, who would have thought that a ten-year-old boy and a thirteen-year-old girl were in love?
Even if they photographed it, the more intimate picture of Zhou Nianwang and Xinyi, what everyone thinks about is the kind of brother-sister relationship between sisters and brothers, right?
The drama "The Son of Heaven" was filmed for two months before it was officially completed.
Don't think it looks like it's short. In fact, it's only 20 episodes of the TV series, and it took two months to complete, and the progress is already very slow.
First of all, most of them are newcomers, so let's not talk about this for now. Just being able to shoot for only 5 hours a day was enough to give the crew a headache.
Fortunately, because it was Zhou Nianwang and Xinyi who funded themselves, Director Liang Benxi was also happy to be a little more relaxed. Your time is up, and I can call it a day sooner.
The drama has already been approved by the radio and television side. What we have to do now is nothing more than contact the TV station and make the premiere.
This is the time to test whether you succeed or not.
The TV series "The Son of Heaven", not long after the start of filming, had already started to work on special effects for the first three episodes.
After all, you can't wait until all the special effects and editing are done before contacting the station. When the time comes, I'm afraid the daylily will be cold.
Don't think that after the TV series is filmed, it really won't be promoted at all. On the TV station's side, it will take at least nearly a month to use a rolling broadcast frequency to build momentum for this TV series.
At that time, the special effects and post-editing work were almost completed. If it is released again at this time, the effect will naturally be much better.
Some friends may ask why it takes so long to make special effects in a movie. The special effects of the TV series seem very simple.
Here, popularize a little.
The special effects of a movie are slow because they are played in different ways. The bigger the screen, the longer it takes.
And the more money you spend, the more money you spend.
The processing of special effects is calculated according to the number of frames. Think about it, how many frames are there on a screen, how many frames does a character occupy on the screen?
For example, if a big man like a Transformer, who occupies almost the entire screen, uses special effects, is it much more difficult than a magic mouse?
In the same way, court dramas like "The Son of Heaven", although there are many of them that require special effects to complete. But compared to the big special effects in the movie, it's still much easier to do.
"Drag, over there at the mango table, I guess it's a little choking. Liu Qi said.
Originally, for things like this, King Zhou Nian usually ran in person. It's just that in order to deliberately cultivate Liu Qi's ability to take charge alone, Zhou Nianwang can throw away the things at hand to him.
It's really something he can't solve, so King Zhou Nian will come out.
Obviously, "The Son of Heaven", a TV series filmed by child stars, feels a little unsellable in Liu Qi's hands.
Mango Station has indeed done a good job in the past two years, but this is not the reason why Zhou Nianwang chose them. The reason why I thought of them at first place was because my father used to work at their place.
How much do you miss old love, right?
But he never thought that after Liu Qi contacted them, what he brought back would be this news.
"What's wrong? Did they say anything?" Zhou Nianwang asked with a frown.
He felt that since he started this company, his frowning brows in a month were almost as high as his annual amount.
It's really not worrying at all.
"They didn't watch the finished film, but after hearing that you starred in it, they discussed it with the station leaders, but they haven't replied until now. Liu Qi, said.
Don't watch the finished film?
King Zhou Nian's brows furrowed even deeper.
If you don't watch the finished film, even if they choose to buy it in the end, it is estimated that they will not pay a high price. At most, it is just to look at the original old relationship and give a price appropriately and comfortingly.
This is obviously not the result that King Zhou Nian wants.
Although Zhou Nianwang is holding a loss this time, when the TV series is really filmed and the finished film is placed in front of his eyes, who doesn't want to take more funds back?
"In addition to Mango Channel, have you negotiated with other TV stations?" asked Zhou Nianwang.
If Mango Terrace really can't do it, then just change it.
Anyway, there are so many TV stations in China, Zhou Nianwang really doesn't believe it, isn't there any TV station willing to broadcast its own TV series?
"Yes. But..."Liu Qi said with a sigh of relief.
"But what?" asked Zhou Nianwang.
I'm not a man-eating tiger, so I'm afraid I'll find out if I have anything to say?
"But at present, there is no one who has a clear intention to buy our TV series. Liu Qi replied embarrassedly.
Is there a mistake wow?
Could it be that our TV series is so badly filmed, and no TV station is willing to give this opportunity?
Zhou Nianwang thinks that the effect of his TV series is not bad?
At least he personally thinks that it is more than a hundred times stronger than those so-called cutout dramas. Why are TV stations willing to buy those cut-out dramas, but no one cares about his conscience work?
Don't...
Is casting really that important?
In other words, even if the cast is really important, don't you still have yourself and Xinyi here to support the field?
It's not all newcomers!
Looking at Zhou Nianwang's somewhat gloomy appearance, Liu Qi couldn't bear to say: "Actually, there is a TV station that has expressed its willingness to buy, but..."
King Zhou Nian cast a hopeful glance at Liu Qi.
"It's just that the average ratings of their TV station are a bit low. Liu Qi said.
TV stations with low average ratings, to put it bluntly, are almost marginalized TV stations, which are the kind of TV that almost every viewer who watches TV, and subconsciously skips as soon as they turn to that station.
This kind of TV station wants to increase the ratings, unless there is a miracle happening.
But...
Is it possible?
No traffic means no advertisers are willing to invest. Without the investment of advertisers, it means that the TV station does not have sufficient funds. If you don't have enough funds, where do you get the money to buy a popular IP?
This is one ring after another, which is basically an endless loop.
So, unless you go shit luck and buy a popular IP at a low price that has the potential to become a hit. In that case, you may still have a chance to turn the tables around.
It's just that people are not stupid, there may be a hot IP, how can people sell it to you at a low price?
