Chapter 132: Gambling Ratings

"Do you think I'm still like a child?" Yun Yi put down the bowl and smiled at his mother.

"I'm serious with you!" Mother reached out and patted him lightly on the shoulder.

"Okay, don't worry!" Yun Yi stood up, came to the sofa and sat down, made a cup of tea, and picked up today's newspaper.

"A man in Qingcheng detonated a bomb in a restaurant yesterday, killing three people and injuring 22 people, and a large number of special police officers rushed to the scene with live ammunition ......"

Yun Yi suddenly remembered that yesterday's news was also a bomb threat, which happened twice in succession in Qingcheng.

There was no detonation last time, and this time it has already caused casualties, and the teacup that was just picked up was put down again, and his brows furrowed.

"Yunyi, I'll go out first, don't forget to go to your grandfather's!" Mother's voice suddenly came from the dining room.

"yes, got it." Yun Yi's thoughts were interrupted.

Looking at the news in the newspaper again, he shook his head, the wedding was about to take place, these were not things that he should consider.

Yun Yi flipped to the entertainment section, and the entertainment section seemed to be much calmer today, and the news about Mu Lin's admitting of her relationship had also calmed down.

Any topic can only last for a while, and they did not announce the news of this Beijing wedding, and they couldn't shoot it anyway.

There may be leaks of news afterwards, but it is enough to have the foreshadowing in front, and I didn't see the news of "The Family of Gold Powder".

Thinking about this, he took out the phone and dialed Mu Shan.

At this time, Mushan was receiving the person in charge of the negotiation of Shonan Satellite TV, and the release of "The Family of Gold Powder" chose Linhai Satellite TV, Beijing Satellite TV, and Shonan Satellite TV as the negotiation object.

After research, I still felt that Shonan Satellite TV was the most suitable, so I sent a sample to Shonan Satellite TV as soon as possible.

In recent years, Shonan Satellite TV is seeking transformation, and it is bolder than its peers in the choice of TV dramas, and is actively planning to rise.

After they received the brilliant sample, it only took two days to arrange for Director Li Haifeng of the program office to discuss the broadcast and negotiate on specific issues.

"Mr. Mu, we are very interested in "The Family of Gold Powder" on Shonan Satellite TV, and we are also very sincere, but on some issues, we still need to negotiate." Li Haifeng said solemnly to the wood fir in front of him.

Looking at the young Mushan in front of him, he didn't dare to underestimate it, in the industry, Mushan this person, he had heard of it, although he was young, but in just over half a year, he would develop more brilliantly.

This person's ability is undoubtedly outstanding, and it is undoubtedly unfavorable to be the object of negotiation, but this person is able to call the shots, in order to finalize it as soon as possible and avoid extraneous branches, he had to directly ask for negotiations with Mushan.

Of course, he also conducted an investigation into the selection of them for this drama, there is no secret in the industry, and the matter of competing with Phoenix for the CCTV schedule has become an open secret, and now it seems that Brilliant has lost.

But they don't think this is their confidence, Brilliant was shooting towards two games, but it is still developing better and better, which is enough to shock the entire entertainment industry.

Such a company, they may not be aggrieved for the release of a play. Later, there was the precedent of "Crazy Stone", which made Shonantai attach great importance to this drama.

After watching the sample, I was even more overjoyed, and the director even made a decision at that time to win it, and he didn't care at all about fighting with CCTV.

In the past few years, they have been developing other aspects in addition to news programs, and TV dramas have gradually surpassed other provincial TV stations as the focus.

I have long wanted to compete with CCTV, but I can't meet good works, the appearance of "The Family of Gold Powder" undoubtedly gave them an opportunity, and more importantly, Brilliant clearly requested that it be broadcast on March 1, which is to compete with CCTV's "Battlefield Beacon".

They had already worked hard to wrestle with CCTV, and now that both sides have this will, they are naturally happy to cooperate.

However, the brilliant offer also made some leaders in the station feel hesitant and even dissatisfied, and they opened 400,000 episodes.

You must know that the highest TV drama market today is only 300,000 episodes, and it is still a TV series with all big names, famous directors, and high audience expectations.

That's the focus of the negotiations this time, they need this series, but the price has to come down.

"We are also willing to cooperate with Shonan Satellite TV, after all, a dominant TV pattern is not beneficial to the entire industry." Mu Shan said softly with a smile.

Of course, Li Haifeng understood what Mushan meant, which meant the wishes of Shonan TV, but directly turned to the topic and said: "First of all, for the broadcast on March 1 proposed by you, I believe you already know that "Battlefield Beacon" will also be broadcast on CCTV on this day, and choosing this day is not in the interests of both of us. ”

"I believe that you Shonan Satellite TV will not be afraid of challenges, and our "Family of Gold Powder", just like the previous "Crazy Stone", will sweep away all opponents, and we are very confident in this." Mu Shan still said indifferently.

"That can't be said, as a TV station, we need to do our best to make a TV series, and this way of fighting in the ring is not in the interests of both of us." Li Haifeng shook his head and said.

Mu Shan looked at Li Haifeng and said with a smile: "Okay, I think we can still reach a consensus on the issue of March 1, if we can't reach a consensus on this point, there is no need for us to talk about it!" ”

Mu Shan also has confidence, he is not the only choice of Shonantai, this is what Yunyi demands, and there is no room for negotiation.

Entangled in this issue is just a waste of time, and he knows that the other party will never give up, but he just wants to use this issue in exchange for other benefits.

Li Haifeng looked at Mu Shan's calm smile, and tacitly did not entangle anymore, but nodded and said: "Okay, this issue, we will discuss it again in the station, and the second question, we ask for the exclusive premiere right time of the whole show." ”

Mu Shan refused without thinking about it at all: "This is impossible, we will give you a day ahead at most, otherwise you can't afford it." ”

If you let them lead the whole drama and wait for them to finish selling the second round, the loss of brilliant interests is too great, this is impossible.

Li Haifeng was obviously prepared: "But you offer a high price of 400,000 episodes, and we are only one day ahead, and we will never accept this price." ”

Mu Shan said in a deep voice: "CCTV has promised to broadcast "The Family of Gold Powder" after "Battlefield Beacon", we are not without a place to broadcast, the reason must be clear to you, this is the basis of our cooperation, we reject the big platform of CCTV, and choose Shonan Satellite TV, naturally it is impossible to have the same price, not to mention that the TV station has to look at the ratings after all, the quality of our "Family of Gold Powder", the ratings will definitely not be bad, and the price of 400,000 yuan is not high. ”

Li Haifeng frowned and said, "But when we can't guarantee the ratings, this price is high." ”

While the two were arguing, Mu Shan's phone suddenly rang.

Mu Shan looked at the phone, it was Yun Yi, stood up and said to Li Haifeng, "I'm sorry, please wait a while." ”

Walked out the door and answered the phone and said, "Hey, Mr. Yun! ”

Yun Yi sat on the sofa and asked, "Mushan, how is the negotiation of "The Family of Gold Powder"?" ”

Mu Shan explained the situation, and Yun Yi said after a slight groan: "That is to say, if the ratings are no longer guaranteed, they dare not give this price code." ”

"Yes, the negotiations are deadlocked now." Mu Shan nodded.

Yun Yi seemed to remember that there was a grading price code for betting ratings in his previous life, and after thinking about it, he said: "Mushan, what is the average rating of TV dramas in the country now?" ”

Mu Shan was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Bai Yunyi meant? But then he said: "Prime time and evening TV dramas, the total average is about 3 points." ”

"You see if this will work, cooperate with them in another way, let's use ratings to sell aggregation, reaching 3 points 200,000, 4 points 250,000, 5 points 300,000, and so on." Yun Yi didn't know this way, but he had heard of it, this is also gambling, and he was still very confident in "The Family of Gold Powder".

Mu Shan stood in place and was still a little stunned, can he also be graded by selling TV series?

Now there is no such method in China, and Mushan does not dare to guarantee whether it is feasible, but it is okay to listen to the reason, and asked softly: "What if it can't reach 3 points?" ”

"We don't want a penny." Yun Yi said without hesitation.

After Mu Shan hung up the phone, he stood at the door for a while, he was originally in this line, and after a little consideration, he understood the way Yun Yi said.

It has to be said that this is a good way to resolve the current differences, but it is also a bit risky. That's pure betting ratings.

Taking a deep breath, he walked into the office, and after sitting down, he was silent for a while, and then said to Li Haifeng: "Can we cooperate in another way?" ”

Li Haifeng was slightly stunned, but still nodded and said, "Tell me about it." ”

"What you're most worried about right now is the ratings, so let's use the ratings to calculate the price. Last year, the average rating of domestic TV dramas was only 2.97, and last year's champion was less than 7 points, let's calculate with this, if you can't reach 3 brilliant cents, reach 3 points, then charge 200,000 episodes, 4 points 250,000, 5 points 300,000, plus 100,000 for each point above five points, if you reach the championship ratings, your 400,000 episodes are not expensive! Mu Shan said in a deep voice.

Li Haifeng: "......"

Li Haifeng was stunned at first, and subconsciously wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it carefully, he didn't need money if he couldn't reach 3 points, even if he reached 4 points, even if he was on a high-quality TV series, 250,000 yuan was really not expensive, as for 6 points, spending 400,000 yuan was definitely worth it.

"How?" Mu Shan didn't know whether he wanted him to refuse or agree.

He has a little drum in his heart, if he can't reach 3 points, then the fun will be great, but in his heart he has always believed that Mr. Yun, "The Family of Gold Powder" can't reach 3 points.

Li Haifeng was silent for a long time, but finally did not refuse, but stood up and said: "We have never had experience in the way you said, I need to go back and report, and I will give you an answer as soon as possible." ”

Mu Shan knew that this was not done for a while, so he nodded and said, "Okay, we are waiting for your reply." ”
