"It's not. The budget is enough. Xu Rui smiled slightly, he didn't think of taking advantage of the danger of knocking on the bamboo pole of Jiang Provincial Satellite TV, under the guise of the budget, and then seeking a benefit from it.
First, everyone knows this kind of thing, even if you cover it up well, it will inevitably reveal clues.
The second is that although the program "The Masked Singer" is managed and dispatched by Xu Rui, the personnel of Jiang Provincial Satellite TV perform their duties, and they have special personnel to take care of expenses and advertising revenues.
Although you can get a little extra money by putting down your body, it has to be said that such an approach is not worth it at all.
Greedy for small profits and big losses, there is really no need to do this for a small profit, because as long as it is completed according to Xu Rui's current plan, it will not be long before he can get ten or even a hundred times more than now.
And if that's the case, why would he do that?
"It's not a budget, what's that?" Wang Weili wondered.
Although Xu Rui has been coming to Jiang Provincial Satellite TV for a while, however, the contact between the two can be counted on one hand, if it weren't for the budget problem, what else would it be?
Seeing that Wang Weili took the initiative to ask, Xu Rui immediately opened his mouth and directly said his intention: "That's the case, Zhejiang Satellite TV has found my agent recently, and I hope I can open a variety show over there."
Now that The Masked Singer is on track and the recording is coming to an end, I have plenty of time, so I'm going to move on. ”
"This ...... When did it happen? Wang Weili was very surprised when he heard this, he hadn't received any news in advance before, I don't know if Xu Rui hid it too well, or if this incident actually just happened.
"Hmm...... Actually, it didn't take long. However, the action over there is very fast, and preparations have been underway, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the recording can officially begin. ”
Xu Rui pondered for a moment, and then said: "But Director Wang can rest assured, that is, the program I went to Zhejiang Satellite TV to open has nothing to do with "The Masked Singer".
It is a new style of outdoor program, and because Zhejiang Satellite TV's tripod program "I Love to Remember Lyrics" is broadcast every Sunday, so. I don't have to worry about the collision between the new show and "The Masked Singer". ”
Wang Weili pinched his chin and fell into contemplation when he heard this, in fact, even if Xu Rui didn't talk about all this today, and directly participated in the recording of Zhejiang Satellite TV at that time, he couldn't say anything.
After all, everyone signed only a program contract. In other words, aside from the program "The Masked Singer", all of Xu Rui's affairs have nothing to do with Jiang Provincial Satellite TV, and there is no need to accept their jurisdiction.
"Well, you have an idea to talk to me about. We worked together so happily, why did you leave with someone else in a blink of an eye. If you want, the station can provide you with a contract with an annual salary of one million, or even a share of the program's advertising revenue. ”
Hearing Wang Weili say this, Xu Rui immediately laughed out loud, it seems that the other party has misunderstood, and he feels that he needs to explain the way he cooperates with Zhejiang Satellite TV.
"In fact, there is another main reason why I cooperate with Zhejiang Satellite TV, that is, the new program I opened there Zhejiang Satellite TV only enjoys the right to screen, but there is no right to sell. In other words, the copyright is mine. And I will also apply for the corresponding legal protection in the relevant authorities.
And one more point. The way I cooperate with Zhejiang Provincial Satellite TV is similar to that of your station, and they are also program appointments, and the new program is very similar to "The Masked Singer", both of which belong to a seasonal broadcast form.
However, after the recording of the first season, it depends on whether the willingness of the two parties to cooperate is the same. Xu Ruiyun said lightly.
Hearing Xu Rui mention the word 'copyright', Wang Weili's face changed suddenly, he never thought that Zhejiang Satellite TV would spend so much money in order to win over Xu Rui, or to get Xu Rui's variety show concept.
There is no need to say how important copyright is, because even if it cannot be sold overseas, it is a very large amount of money just to distribute it to major web portals in online new media.
No wonder Xu Rui will have an annual salary of one million. The advertising is divided into a category and is unmoved, because if it is about actual benefits, as long as he operates it properly, he can make a lot of money with these things at that time.
At that time, the amount Xu Rui received was not as simple as a few million. Even more than 10 million is not impossible.
As long as the show is eye-catching enough, or its results are expected, then there is basically no shortage of buyers.
"Now that you have decided, this time you can only cooperate with Zhejiang Satellite TV. Alas, what a pity! Wang Weili sighed lightly.
He could not make a decision on the issue of copyright alone, because the interests involved in such a matter were not small. It takes a meeting of the leadership team of Taili to make a decision.
And more importantly, there is no precedent for this kind of thing, generally speaking, the copyright ownership of self-produced and self-sold variety shows is undoubtedly the TV station's, unless it is the concept of a program introduced to other countries, otherwise, there is really no cooperation model like Xu Rui and Zhejiang Satellite TV.
"There's no pity, in the future, I may open a studio, follow the concept of separation of production and broadcasting abroad, I will shoot you and broadcast, and there will be more opportunities for cooperation than now." Xu Rui smiled.
He had never revealed this issue in front of outsiders before, but since there had been a showdown, Xu Rui simply instilled his ideas to Wang Weili in advance, as for whether he would have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, no one could say for sure, but it was nothing to get vaccinated at the moment.
"Separation of production and broadcasting? You're going to get this? Wang Weili finally completely figured out Xu Rui's thoughts.
In the end, it is different from the number of people in the industry, many industry insiders and TV people have openly made countless remarks about the separation of production and broadcasting, among which it is very solemnly pointed out that this method is not suitable for China, but I didn't expect Xu Rui to plan the separation of production and broadcasting now.
If you want to say whether the separation of production and broadcasting is beneficial, or whether it can reduce some risks and pressure for TV stations, the answer is, of course, yes.
Because from the preparation to the production of a show, the energy and financial resources required are not at all a specific number that can be estimated, take "The Masked Singer" as an example, the show is so exciting, and the guest lineup is extremely strong, how is this done.
It's very simple, nothing more than favors and salary.
Now it is because "The Masked Singer" is popular, and the ratings and market share have become the leaders in the same period, so Jiang Provincial Satellite TV has taken back all the early investment and has some surplus.
However, if everything far exceeds everyone's expectations, and the ratings suffer Waterloo, then in the end, this bitter fruit can only be swallowed by Jiang Provincial Satellite TV itself. (To be continued.) )
