Room 1102 of Xiyuan Hotel.

Ye Sumang and Cai Yinong sat side by side, opposite a pair of middle-aged men and women in decent suits.

The four of them didn't speak, just looked at each other, and after nearly a minute, the middle-aged man took the lead in speaking.

"Hello, I'm Ouyang Changqing, the deputy director of field affairs of Xiangnan TV, and this is my wife Li Ling." The middle-aged man introduced himself very formally.

"Hello, I'm director Ye Sumang (producer Cai Yinong)."

When he heard that the other party turned out to be the executive deputy director of the provincial station, Cai Yinong's eyes suddenly lit up. subconsciously glanced at Ye Sumang beside him, but found that the other party still looked calm and indifferent, and didn't seem to care about the identity of the man opposite.

"This kid is really calm." Cai Yinon secretly sighed.

The weight of an executive deputy director has a big enough impact on a film and television company like them, and the average small boss even wants to pounce on it and pull the relationship after seeing it, after all, the energy of this position can completely affect the benefits of the film and television company for a year, and Cai Yinong also has to pay attention to the relationship between the two parties.

But what Cai Yinong didn't know was that Ye Sumang, who had just stepped into the society, didn't know how much energy a deputy director had at all, and the man opposite at the moment was an ordinary negotiation opponent in his eyes.

The two sides did not seem to be in a hurry to negotiate at the moment, and after introducing each other, they fell silent again. Because speaking first means giving up the initiative to the other party, the whole room was filled with a depressing atmosphere for a while, and it was obvious that they were competing with each other.

"I'm so thirsty, don't you know what drinks are here?" After a period of silence, Li Ling, who had never spoken, opened her mouth first, and the atmosphere in the whole room was relaxed.

"It's over here." Ye Sumang had already figured out the layout of the room, stood up politely, and walked towards the location of the refrigerator in the house with Li Ling.

Cai Yinong and Ouyang Changqing, who were left, looked at each other and smiled.

"Director Ouyang, I have admired the name for a long time, I heard that the TV series [Huanzhu Gege] that became an instant hit in Xiangnan was introduced by you personally." Cai Yinong smiled and complimented, quietly bringing the relationship between the two closer.

"Where, where." Ouyang Changqing waved his hand, although his mouth was modest, but a trace of pride flashed between his eyebrows, obviously Cai Yinong said that his heart was on the line.

Ouyang Changqing, who was still the head of the procurement department at that time, insisted on persuading the leaders of the station to introduce this TV series from many opposing voices.

And the TV series did not live up to his hopes, triggering a wave of 'returning pearl fever' that swept the country, and also made Shonan TV from an inconspicuous local station in the country to one of the top four local stations in the country in one fell swoop.

And because of this successful introduction, he has added an important merit, which gives him the opportunity to be quickly promoted to the position of 'executive deputy director'.

It can be said that what Cai Yinong said is the greatest affirmation of his past achievements, no wonder he can't help but show a slight smug expression when he is usually serious and calm.

"Mr. Cai, I've already watched the promotional video of your [Legend of Sword and Fairy], I don't know if there is more detailed information, I want to take a look." Ouyang Changqing said with a smile: "You know that the promotional video is too short and can't properly evaluate the value of a TV series. ”

"Of course" Cai Yinon took out a folder from the table and handed it to Ouyang Changqing opposite, she had already prepared detailed information about the TV series.

Ouyang Changqing took the information curiously, took out a pair of glasses from the pocket of his clothes, put them on, and looked through them carefully for a while.

After about ten minutes, he put down the information, nodded and said: "Yes, very detailed, the idea is also very novel, it seems that the first person in the country dares to use the game as a background to adapt it into a TV series, but ......"

Hearing Ouyang Changqing's praise, Cai Yinong was still very happy, but the sudden 'but' made her heart instantly rise to her throat.

"But... TV series with this theme have never been verified by the public, so the guarantee of ratings is not high, and even if we want to buy it, the price we pay will not be too much. Ouyang Changqing said with a smile on his face, and he couldn't see that he was actually lowering the price between his words.

Cai Yinong's face on the other side gradually darkened at the moment, and the meaning of Ouyang Changqing's words was obvious, that is, naked price reduction, and the reason was also very sharp, after all, the TV series adapted from the game had indeed not appeared in the Chinese TV drama market.

"Then what price does Director Ouyang want to offer?" It was not Cai Yinong who spoke, but Ye Sumang, who had just returned.

His words immediately made everyone's eyes focus on him, and Ouyang Changqing also looked at Li Ling beside him, who just smiled helplessly.

It turned out that after Ye Sumang took Li Ling to choose a drink just now, Li Ling pulled him in the room and asked questions for a long time. Most of them are about Ye Sumang's age and directorial experience, although Ye Sumang has always been very patient to answer Li Ling, but his ears have been listening to the conversation in the hall, and when he heard that Ouyang Changqing actually began to blatantly lower the price, he couldn't help but stand up.

"According to your input, the cost of each episode is about 750,000 yuan, and our station is willing to buy your first round of broadcast rights at the price of one million episodes, how about it? I don't think you're at a loss anymore, after all, there are replay rights in the future, and DVD distribution rights can be sold. Receiving Li Ling's eyes, Ouyang Changqing gently lifted the glasses on the bridge of his nose with his hand, and didn't seem to care about Ye Sumang's sudden interjection, and still responded with a smile.

"I'm afraid..." Hearing this price, Cai Yinong's face was very bad, and his words were full of embarrassment.

The price of one million is indeed lower than Cai Yinong's psychological price, and she originally hoped to be able to sell for more than 1.4 million.

"Sister Cai, I think I propose a method, do you think it will work?" Before Cai Yinong's words fell, Ye Sumang suddenly interjected, and everyone's eyes immediately focused on his face curiously, wanting to see what plan this young man was going to say.

"Director Ouyang actually appreciates our TV series in the final analysis, and is willing to buy our TV series, but he is worried about whether the TV series itself will be accepted by the public, right?" Ye Sumang's face was calm and said softly.

"That's right." Ouyang Changqing nodded.

"How about we sell it to you at a fair price? An episode costs only 750,000 yuan. As soon as Ye Sumang opened his mouth, everyone's eyes widened in surprise, and Cai Yinong wanted to refute directly, but was temporarily stopped by Ye Sumang's eyes.

"It's... weishenme？ Ouyang Changqing was also a little puzzled, and he couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Ye Sumang's gourd.

"It's very simple, since Director Ouyang is worried about the ratings, isn't it better for us to use the ratings to divide it?" Ye Sumang smiled and put forward his own opinion.

If the ratings of the next TV series can break 1, then this TV series will be one of the most popular TV series in the country. Ye Sumang's idea is very simple, every episode of my TV series has been sold to you at the most basic price, but once the ratings break 1, then you will have to double the money for this episode, break 2 and double it, and so on.

This sharing plan can be said to be crude and simple, and those who mention it are either crazy people or have full confidence in their TV series.

Sure enough, after Ye Sumang finished speaking, the scene was quiet.

Everyone looked at Ye Sumang dumbfounded, obviously shocked by the plan he proposed.

Ouyang Changqing stared at Ye Sumang for a long time, the young man in front of him looked delicate and steady, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like a madman, so it could only be said that this boy had full confidence in his TV series.

Li Ling, who was standing beside him, also clapped her hands in admiration, this kind of self-confidence is the most appreciated advantage of these successful financial people, and she also found the same gambler temperament as herself from this teenager.

"Director Ouyang, the child is still young, don't be surprised by what you say." Cai Yinong's heart was actually moved by Ye Sumang's method, but Ouyang Changqing's face still had to be maintained a little, after all, Ye Sumang's words just now could be said to be directly aimed at the deputy director's words, and she felt that she had to stand up and protect Ye Sumang.

"No strange, how can I see strange, I also think this method of sharing is very uninteresting, how about Mr. Cai, let's do what he says?" Ouyang Changqing came back to his senses, suddenly couldn't help but smile, looked at Cai Yinong, and directly agreed to Ye Sumang's proposal.

The signing of the contract was unexpectedly smooth, including the sharing ratio, the release time period, etc., all of which Ye Sumang did not participate too much, because Cai Yinong, as the leader of a veteran TV series production company, obviously understands better than him, a rookie, and he is just looking forward to the day when the TV series is released to see how many people can recognize his achievements.
