Chapter 045, co-production drama

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone! Two full moons!

While still thinking about it, Chen Pu had already come in with Meng Yushu, so he could only stop his train of thought and greet the other party: "Mr. Meng is here, I don't know what you have to do, it shouldn't be that Yindu has taken a fancy to my small company." ”

Meng Yushu's first impression of Mo Fei was that, as the legend said, he spoke directly enough. smiled and shook hands with Mo Fei, and said: "Mr. Mo said that it was funny, Phoenix culture has infinite potential, and it is destined to shine in the future, and there is a super producer leader like Mr. Mo, we can't afford to buy silver, so don't make fun of me, an errand runner." ”

Mo Fei also smiled and said: "To tell the truth, my small company, I don't think there is anything worthy of Yindu's attention except for the merger, let alone you, the chairman of the board, to make a trip in person." Saying that, the secretary had already brought the tea, and he also invited Meng Yushu to take a seat.

Meng Yushu couldn't tell for a while, whether Mo Fei's words were really joking, or whether he felt that an assistant came to him a little inadequately, so he could only smile and replied: "Mr. Mo really likes to joke, and Yindu pays attention to Phoenix culture, firstly because of the word 'Phoenix', and secondly, because I heard that Mr. Mo himself is engaged in the production and distribution of TV series, so I want to see if we have anything to work with." ”

After thinking about it, he felt that he still needed to explain, and said: "Mr. Liao was originally going to come over to meet Mr. Mo in person, but he is now in Japan and can't come back, and we are afraid that others will take the lead, so I have to come and run first as an assistant." ”

Mo Fei smiled, noncommittal to Meng Yushu's explanation, and said: "At present, Phoenix Culture is indeed preparing to invest in two TV series, mainly to help ATV produce, and I haven't thought about the release of other aspects for the time being." And to be honest, to this day, I'm still writing scripts, and I haven't found the actors yet, and I don't know when the release problem is. Yindu is very strong in this regard, and if we can reach a cooperation, it is of course the best. ”

It's really the same as Mo Fei thought, Yindu really came for distribution, but for the release of TV series, not movies. It seems that the news of this silver capital is really well-informed, Phoenix Culture and ATV have only signed an agreement for a few days, and they have already received accurate news, some people in ATV must have a very good relationship with them, and the name of the Whampoa Military Academy in the Hong Kong film industry is really not called in vain.

Meng Yushu is really afraid that if it is because he has been extremely strong for a while, he has become proud and complacent, and he doesn't take others seriously, so it will be difficult to talk about it next. Seeing Mo Fei's tough measures to deal with the boycott before, Meng Yushu still had some worries about this negotiation, but now it seems that those worries are completely unnecessary.

Now Mo Fei expressed his intention to cooperate, he will rest assured, the next thing is to discuss the cost of agency issuance, this is not very difficult, the industry has a very standardized set of standards, as long as the scope of this standard floats, there should be no big problem.

According to a survey, as long as Mr. Mok writes and produces a movie, at least eighty percent of fans are willing to go into the theater to watch it, which is the best result in the Hong Kong film industry." And Mr. Mo, you are now entering the TV industry, and those fans who like Mr. Mo's movies will be very happy.

In view of Mr. Mo's previous brilliant achievements, combined with some market research we have done, in the cooperation between our two sides in the distribution of TV dramas in other cities, Yindu has given two ways of cooperation. One is cooperative distribution, and Yindu charges 20% of the broadcast copyright; The other is a complete agency distribution, and Yindu buys out the broadcast rights of the episodes in a certain area. I don't know which way Mr. Mo prefers, so let's make a satisfactory offer. ”

"I don't have to think too much about this, I definitely chose to cooperate with the release, and I don't have confidence in the films I made, so I just don't shoot them. As long as I dare to shoot, I am ready to take all risks, and it is also because I am very optimistic about the ratings of the film. I believe that Mr. Meng, you already know that the cooperation plan between me and ATV is based on the ratings, and I still have this confidence. ”

If it is a drama with little confidence, of course, it is a cooperation that chooses to buy out the copyright; And the dramas that are very optimistic are naturally to choose the way to share. is full of confidence in the TV series he made, which has been tested by history, so he naturally will not choose this way of cooperation. Although the buyout fee given by Yindu will not be less, they must have underestimated the gold content of the series.

Dare to price by ratings, this is not something that ordinary people dare to do, whether it is absolutely unprecedented, but it is absolutely unprecedented, and it takes how strong confidence it takes to support it. Although I don't know where Mo Fei's confidence comes from, Meng Yushu's admiration for Mo Fei is not fake, this guy is definitely the No. 1 fierce man, based on this alone, the two major TV stations in Hong Kong are already more than one step behind, and there are talents in the country.

The two talked for a while about the cooperation between the two sides, and said that after Liao Yiyuan returned to Hong Kong, they would meet with Mo Fei to make sure, and then they could sign an agreement.

At this time, Mo Fei thought that it should be almost the end of the conversation, and it was time to send off the guests later. But Meng Yushu didn't end the posture at all, but threw out a topic again: "Actually, I came this time, and I have another thing I want to discuss cooperation with Mr. Mo, I don't know if Mr. Mo is interested in cooperating in a drama?" ”

Is it cooperation again, or cooperation in dramas? Isn't it a little inexplicable, Yindu has never done a TV series, what kind of trouble is this, just a time travel, bringing so many changes to the world?

Anyway, it's already in this era, and it's impossible to travel through it again. Mo Fei muttered two sentences in his heart and asked: "Why does Yindu also want to invest in TV series, I don't know what kind of theme it is, and with the strength of Yindu, I don't know how to shoot dramas, I have to find someone to cooperate, right?" ”

Yindu has to do agency distribution and make its own films, which is obviously not what a good partner should do. To put it bluntly, this is to grab a partner's job, if it's not a very good drama, I'm going to refuse, even if it's my own distribution.

Meng Yushu smiled and waved his hand, and said: "What is the identity of Yindu in the Hong Kong film industry, Mr. Mo should be very clear, to put it bluntly, it is a fusion agent, if there is a suitable script, make a few movies, if it is not too good, it will only be distributed, and it is basically impossible to make a TV series." What I want to say is that I want to ask Mr. Mo to co-produce a TV series with the mainland, that is, the costume mythological drama "Journey to the West" being filmed by an international television company, the film has been filmed for more than a year now, and it is expected to be filmed for at least another year, I don't know if Mr. Mo is interested. ”

Seeing that Mo Fei was a little unclear, Meng Yushu said: "Here's the thing, Mr. Mo also knows the speech of the British Foreign Minister, and the next step is to sign an agreement, in order to maintain the local social order of stability and unity, the relevant parties decided to stabilize the people's mood through a series of cooperation, and through the way of cultural integration, the ancestors have always been firmly implementing, so I thought of doing something in this regard."

In fact, the official has prepared some exchange performances, but I always feel that it is not enough, and I also thought about co-production, which was originally an option for ATV, but ATV's ratings are indeed not strong, so I had to give up this consideration. It wasn't until Mr. Mo that you produced "Sky Trap", then the big hit of "Peace Hotel", and now you are cooperating with ATV, that Mr. Liao was moved again, and after discussing with the mainland, he decided to come to talk to you. ”

"Wireless is also very powerful, it has always been the overlord of Hong Kong's TV ratings, and it should be more reliable to cooperate with them than ATV." I have to say that it is not tempting to be fake, but we must also find out what is going on here, he will never want to get close to politics, and it is even worse to be involved.

Meng Yushu smiled and said, "Jude Gen's background is clean, he came to Hong Kong from the mainland, and although Jude is also Chinese, they are from Singapore, and the previous shareholder relationship is more complicated. What's more, he now uses a woman in the front desk, this woman is from an improper background, and she is also domineering, and the cooperation is too variable. ”

Could it be that this is just the realization that it is such a simple cooperation, and it needs to go through such strict scrutiny, and the 21st century is simply too lenient. But why did you choose Phoenix Culture, I didn't understand this, and asked: "Mr. Nameng, you should also know that I am also an Italian and a Dutchman, and I have studied in the United States for seven years, which is not much purer than the Shan family." ”

"First of all, Mr. Mok, you are a native of Hong Kong, and you can represent Hong Kong, and it is also the easiest for the people to accept. Secondly, although you have many identities, it can't hide that you will always be just a descendant of Yan Huang, just like Jude Gen's ATV, although there are still British shares, but you also have an advantage over others. Of course, the most important thing is Mr. Mok's personal ability, if you change to someone else, without this ability, even if he has been a Hong Kong native for generations, he can't do enough influence, it's useless. ”

After Meng Yushu finished saying this, he completely understood that the release of "Huo Yuanjia" in the mainland is not only a matter of the content of the film, but also the efforts of many other people. It seems that even if you want to shoot together, you can't shoot if you want to, many conditions are restricted, and you can't be unqualified. And I can be remembered to co-produce a film, it is estimated that it is not only those reasons, I am afraid that there is also a layer of relationship between the partners of the silver capital at work, if there is no cooperation, this good thing is estimated to not be their turn.

But there is one more thing that needs to be guaranteed, and if this is not guaranteed, he would rather give up this opportunity. took a breath and said, "Mr. Meng, I am very interested in co-producing this classic masterpiece, but I want to make one point first, I am just co-producing the film, and I will never participate in other things, I just want to be a producer." ”

Meng Yushu laughed and said, "Mr. Mo doesn't have to worry, this is no problem at all, our Yindu is only engaged in the film business, and the rest is that we want to participate, but we don't necessarily understand, we don't necessarily can." ”

"Okay, I'm willing to co-produce this film." Since there are no other risks, of course, Mo Fei will not refuse this cooperation that can bring great benefits to himself.

Meng Yushu was also very happy to receive a positive answer, and after chatting a few more words, he drank all the tea in the cup, stood up and said: "Mr. Liao will return to Hong Kong in two days, and the specific cooperation agreement will be signed with Mr. Liao at that time. ”
