734 profits are scary
"Enron, let's be honest. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info The quality of this drama must be good in my opinion, and you also let us participate in this cooperation. But why do I still have such a bad feeling? Kim Yong-sub looked at Liu Anran and asked.
"Why do you feel bad? We are cooperating, and the production cost is from our side. In the same way as in the past, we will not ask for more advertising remuneration. Liu Anran said with a smile.
"But since our cooperation this time is a bit special, I think it is necessary to hold a joint press conference. After all, the script of an episode of 30 million won is also a gimmick. is still written by a rookie writer, and there is a great possibility that our drama will become popular before it is released. ”
Kim Yong-sub shook his head helplessly, knowing that it was impossible for Liu Anran to give all the benefits to SBS.
It's not a short time to get in touch with Liu Anran, but he knows one thing, don't look at Liu Anran's youth, but he won't let you take advantage of it casually.
If this is when New Star Media was just launched in South Korea, he has little choice, and he can accept such preferential conditions without other additional requirements. But what is the scale of Nova Media now? has erected a gold-lettered signboard in the Korean film and television industry.
It's understandable now, but it's actually for the promotion of Nova Media. pulled on his side, for this Kim Eun-sook screenwriter can give a little help, and New Star Media can get a lot of benefits.
"Okay, when the crew is ready, we can make one. But a TV series is a TV series, and the "Love Letter" variety show you are preparing should not relax. Put the studio on our SBS, it's not good to be on your side all the time. Kim Yong-sub nodded and said.
Knowing that Liu Anran wants to take advantage, he can't make it easy for him, so he has to make another small exchange. Now that "X-MAN" is on the air, there are also some noises. It's because the whole filming process was put on the side of Nova Media, and now I want to go back to the filming site of "Love Letter" to see what these people have to say.
"That's no problem, I've been short of manpower lately." Liu Anran said happily.
He agreed so happily that Kim Yongxie was a little puzzled, wondering if he had fallen into Liu Anran's trap again.
"Brother Yongxie, I'm so sad. I really don't have any other ideas, we are short of manpower at the moment, everyone is running this crew and that, and they don't stop at all, and the overtime pay is almost half of their salary. Looking at Kim Yong-sub's appearance, Liu Anran said with a wry smile.
"Didn't you recruit some people last year? Those people aren't enough? Kim Yong-sub asked curiously.
"Now some of those people are studying at my American company, and when they finish their training, they will send another batch there." Kim Myung-kwan said.
Chang said that if you want to improve the quality of the film, the staff behind the scenes is also very important. Those people won't be able to come back until next year at the earliest, and we will only be able to relax when they come back. ”
"Oh my God, do you want to dominate the entire film and television market?" Kim Yong-sub asked with a frown.
"You see, I know a lot of people think that." Liu Anran said with a smile.
"Because of my status as a foreigner, in fact, no matter what I do, everyone thinks that I have a purpose. What film and television company doesn't want its own work to get good reviews and ratings? ”
"Now the production cost of each episode of our company is about 25%-30% higher than the normal cost. This money is not spent on salary, but on pure production. ”
"So the TV series and movies that we produce, everybody loves them. Although we also want to make money, we also want to dedicate beautiful works to the audience when we make money. ”
Kim Yong-sub didn't know what to say, no matter what he said, he still needed to speak with his grades. People are willing to invest in New Star Media, and under such competition, you have nothing to say if you lose.
"You know, working with you guys is putting a lot of pressure on me right now." Kim Yong-sub said with a wry smile.
"You don't have to worry, you probably know better than me what our cable station looks like. Even if I will broadcast some episodes on my TV station in the future, I will not stop cooperating with you. Liu Anran shook his head and said.
"Those who know me well know that I love working together. Because cooperation is a process of learning from each other's strengths, it is beneficial for both parties. ”
"Episodes are placed on your side, and it will drive advertising revenue. And when our company's artists come to your station to participate in the show, you will take care of it somewhat, right? Otherwise, just rely on my cable to promote the artist, when will I have to promote it? ”
"So don't worry, as long as you don't want to take advantage of the advantages and don't make efforts, our cooperation will not stop. To put it bluntly, the profit of the entire Nova Media in South Korea in a year may not be as much as that of a company in the United States making a similar movie. ”
"Dream Media's film released last year grossed nearly $1.7 billion at the North American box office. Each of our films is profitable, and this is still a simple box office income, deducting miscellaneous things, and there are nearly 600 million US dollars in net profits. However, this income does not include various copyrights and overseas box office plus DVDs. ”
"Nova Media, on the other hand, has been losing money. No matter how good the movies we make, South Korea has a small population base. How much box office can it contribute? ”
"Nova Media will make money, but not now, but in the future. You can think about it, what kind of benefits can you get if we can work closely together during this transition? ”
"Is your American company really making so much money?" Kim Yong-sub asked in some surprise.
"What's there to brag about, all the films are there at the box office, you can check for yourself. The economic foundations of the two sides are different, and the benefits are naturally different. In North America, as long as your film is good enough, you don't have to worry about losing money no matter how much you invest. Liu Anran shrugged his shoulders and said.
In fact, Liu Anran also played a hand to transfer flowers and trees, and fooled Jin Yongxie here.
The income from the film is indeed very good, but the expenses are also huge. It can only be said that Dream Media is now profitable, and MGM has huge debts waiting to be repaid.
But he also knew a little about these things with Jin Mingquan, and Jin Mingquan didn't understand them so thoroughly. Not to mention Kim Yong-sub and Kim Eun-sook, who have been frightened by Dream Media's profits.
