Chapter 185 Watching the Auction of Films
The crew of "Love Apartment" was successfully completed, and the actors of the crew could naturally rest for a while. As a director and producer, Lu Wenbin must devote himself to the intense post-editing work.
Considering that there were only a few days left, Lu Wenbin finally started the invitation to watch the film in advance. Earlier, I originally planned to broadcast this TV series on Pearl Channel, but as Qiyi.com began to promote it, there seem to be many TV stations that are interested.
In view of this situation, Lu Wenbin finally planned to hold a viewing party. As for the final TV station can win the exclusive broadcast rights, it depends on the high price given by that TV station. After all, the one with the highest price wins!
With the invitation of Dream Chaser Entertainment to watch the film, the heads of the procurement departments of the invited TV stations also arrived at Dream Chaser Entertainment Company one after another. To Lu Wenbin's surprise, Suzhou TV actually sent a deputy director in charge of TV variety shows.
After some introduction, Lu Wenbin was also very surprised: "Director Liu, thank you!" I really didn't expect that a movie viewing party would alarm you to come over on purpose, which really flattered me! ”
"Mr. Lu is too polite! Last time, your drama benefited us a lot, and this time your company's first self-made drama, our station is still very interested. So, I came to take a look.
Of course, when I came here this time, I also hope to have more cooperation with Mr. Lu. Although the ranking of our Suzhou station in China is not as good as the old stations such as Mingzhu and Imperial Capital, our Taiwan leadership team is very young.
And I think that Mr. Lu has time in the future, so he should go back to Suzhou often! As far as I know, Mr. Lu's grandfather is our native of Suzhou. If you really want to talk about it, we are also fellow villagers, and we support the cultural construction of our hometown, Mr. Lu will not shirk, right? ”
"Of course! When I was a child, my grandfather and I went back to my hometown in Suzhou, and although there were no relatives in my hometown, my roots were there. I am very happy to be able to contribute to the people of my hometown. Liu Tai, please inside, let's talk slowly! ”
From Liu Jiazhen's words, Lu Wenbin can feel his intention to some extent. In the final analysis, as Liu Jiazhen said, Suzhou Taiwan has just changed its leadership team a year ago, and it also wants to improve the brand image of Suzhou Taiwan.
After all, as a major economic province of the Yanhuang Empire, Suzhou Prefecture ranks relatively high in all economic rankings. However, in the cultural industry, it still seems somewhat unworthy of the title of a major economic province, which makes the leaders of Suzhou very dissatisfied.
The deputy director in front of him, although it was the first time he met Lu Wenbin. But he was responsible for the purchase of 'Who is in charge of my youth' with the Imperial Capital Terrace earlier. With this drama, he was promoted from the director of the Literature and Art Center to the deputy director.
It can be said that he was able to take this step, thanks to the drama made by Lu Wenbin. In view of this situation, Liu Jiazhen planned to watch the film in person this time. I just hope to get in touch with Lu Wenbin personally.
In addition to buying the broadcast rights of TV dramas, Liu Jiazhen's other intention is to ask Lu Wenbin to help plan a variety show. Nowadays, the share of the variety show market is getting higher and higher for TV stations.
In this case, Suzhou TV also wants to make a breakthrough in variety shows. For this reason, when the internal variety show planning could not satisfy the leaders of the station, Liu Jiazhen proposed to negotiate with Lu Wenbin.
And according to what Liu Jiazhen learned, Lu Wenbin's grandfather and grandmother immigrated from Suzhou to Beiyi in their early years. Although Lu Wenbin is now a Beiyi hukou, Liu Jiazhen feels that this is also a breakthrough.
After all, many of the families of Tunbian immigrants who moved to Beiyi in the early years also moved back to Suzhou in the later years. Even among the descendants of immigrants from Beiyi, some elderly people will be organized to go back to Suzhou to visit their relatives and ancestors.
After listening to Liu Jiazhen's intention, Lu Wenbin thought for a while and said: "Director Liu, I need time to think about variety show cooperation. After all, when it comes to a new variety show, I need time to conceive and plan.
If Director Liu doesn't mind, I think it's better to wait for the new variety show on Imperial Capital TV to be broadcast. And in my recent words, I'm afraid that I won't be able to spare time. However, your Taiwan is so sincere, I will definitely not refuse to cooperate.
It's just that I hope that the new variety show I planned can bring more benefits to the company and partners. Therefore, I hope that time is ready. In addition, let me ask more, does your station have a limit on the production cost of new variety shows? ”
"No! As long as the creativity of the new variety show is good, our station will also come up with a lot of money to support it, please rest assured that Mr. Lu! ”
"Good! With Liu Tai's words, then I am relieved. In fact, the new variety show that will be launched in the summer vacation of Imperial Capital TV can be regarded as my personal idea of variety shows. But whether the effect is good or not will not be known until after the broadcast.
If this new variety show of Imperial Capital TV can still get praise and good ratings, then a new variety show that I had a little idea of earlier may be able to be created. These, when the plan comes out, how about we talk about it? ”
"Yes! Then I look forward to Mr. Lu's good news! But don't keep us waiting too long! I believe that Mr. Lu also knows that time is running out, and our Taiwan leaders still hope to make a beautiful comeback this year! ”
"I do my best! If nothing else, there will definitely be news in the proposal as soon as next month. So Liu Tai can rest assured, right? ”
"Good! That's good, I'm really sorry to cause trouble to Mr. Lu! ”
"It's okay! My company is newly opened, and it really needs more cooperation projects, and it should be our honor to cooperate with your Taiwan. If Liu Tai doesn't mind, let's go and see my company's new drama! ”
"Good! Then I'll take a look at Mr. Lu's new work! ”
When Liu Jiazhen followed Lu Wenbin to the company's internal screening room, the invited directors of several TV stations also arrived in the screening room one after another. Seeing Liu Jiazhen, the new deputy director of Suzhou TV, these colleagues still greeted them politely.
Even if Liu Jiazhen was only a director earlier, but now that he has been promoted to one level, other peers naturally need to give more respect. A TV station that wants to buy exclusive broadcast rights also feels tight when he sees Liu Jiazhen.
Compared with the decision-making power they have, Liu Jiazhen, the deputy director, undoubtedly has more decision-making power. If the quality of this drama is really good, then today's viewing meeting, I'm afraid there will be changes!
Of course, the most nervous is the director of the TV department of Pearl Channel. Before coming, Luo Sihai, the deputy director of Mingzhu Channel, also gave special instructions to let him win the premiere copyright of this TV series as much as possible.
As the opening session began, the directors were surprised to find that there was no opening song in the TV footage. Just when everyone was confused, several directors who watched the film couldn't help laughing.
"This beginning is very interesting!"
After the scene of getting on the bus is broadcast, the opening song of the first episode finally appears. This kind of special broadcast method really makes these directors feel fresh. And this song sounds like the quality is also good.
It's just that when I think that Lu Wenbin is still the winner of the best music creation newcomer in China, the level of song writing is naturally not bad. By the time the opening song ends, the story finally begins to get into the main theme.
still continues the bus at the beginning as the main line, and slowly leads to various plots and protagonists in the back. When they heard 'Lu Zhanbo' describe his sister as 'quiet as a virgin and moving like a crazy rabbit', everyone couldn't help laughing knowingly.
Although it is only a TV series shot by young newcomers, these directors who watch the film can see that the overall quality of this TV series is very good. The most important thing is that even they can't help but laugh from time to time when they watch this play.
When they saw 'Lin Wanyu' mistaking a farm tractor for a go-kart, everyone also thought that this girl was quite cute. And the series of farces that followed made the director who watched the film feel that the quality of this drama is worth looking forward to.
After the first episode was broadcast, Lu Wenbin did not stop and continued to broadcast the second episode. After watching two episodes for more than an hour, these directors realized that this was a TV series worth looking forward to.
After watching the two episodes, Lu Wenbin also said in a timely manner: "Leaders, if you are interested, you can continue to watch the film." It's just that what I want to tell you leaders is that as the follow-up plot unfolds, the jokes and characters of this drama will look better! ”
"Don't look at it! The quality of the works produced by Mr. Lu is still guaranteed. Ladies and gentlemen, let's talk to Mr. Lu about buying copyrights! Mr. Lu, did you decide to broadcast solo or double stars this time? ”
"Let's go solo! If the double star is on the file, I don't think the ratings are too guaranteed. If it is broadcast solo, I believe that the TV series broadcast in the summer vacation should have a place for my drama. ”
I heard that Lu Wenbin did not plan to release the double stars, so he still sold the broadcast rights in the form of exclusive broadcast rights. Everyone knows that the price of this drama is not too low. This means that the next step is to see the respective offer.
In this process, Liu Jiazhen also asked in a timely manner: "Mr. Lu, what do you personally think the ratings of this drama can reach?" Of course, you just have to make a rough prediction! ”
"That's it! If you don't think I'm arrogant, I think the average rating is around 2 percent, which shouldn't be a problem! If all kinds of publicity can keep up, I believe that this rating should be even higher. ”
The average rating is around two percent, which is basically a relatively high-ranking rating. This is very attractive for any TV station. For this reason, the directors of various television stations have also begun to ponder.
Even in the process of preparing to start bidding, some directors who watched the film began to call the station leaders to report the situation. In addition to fighting for the highest price of each episode, everyone also began to look forward to the next real fight.
has a total of twenty-three episodes of TV series, if the ratings can really reach the result that Lu Wenbin said. In the eyes of several TV stations, it is worth the price to be a little higher. As for saying that the ratings are not reached, they can only judge for themselves.
Buying a TV series is sometimes a gamble, if you bet right, you will make a lot of money, and if you lose money, as long as you don't lose too much, the TV station will not feel any surprises. After all, things like TV ratings ultimately depend on the audience!
