146 Partnered with ATV
Zhang Jin's refusal made the ATV representative very worried, so he subconsciously asked: "Zhang Sheng, are you still angry about the failure of the last negotiation?" ”
Zhang Jin shook his head and smiled: "No, business is not benevolent, and I am not a person who holds grudges, how can I still be angry about that little thing." ”
If you don't hold grudges, believe that you will have ghosts! The ATV representative said with disdain in his heart.
"Why is that, doesn't it feel like our ATV's sincerity is not enough?" The ATV representative was also very hard, and immediately introduced the way of cooperation.
"Before coming, Mr. Lin Baixin, the chairman of the board, said that as long as Zhang Sheng agreed to cooperate with ATV, ATV will be responsible for all the production costs, you can choose any personnel, you can go to any country to select the scene, ATV only manages the accounts, and will not interfere in any production matters, in addition, Lin Sheng will also give you two million hardship fees alone."
After the ATV representative finished speaking, he said with a smile on his face: "Zhang Sheng, such a superior condition, I'm afraid that Sir Shao can't provide it, right?" ”
"The conditions are tempting!" Zhang Jin had to admit that Lin Baixin beat Sir Shao in terms of spending money, not only bearing all the production costs, but also giving two million alone.
If ATV put forward such a condition, Zhang Jin didn't want to agree to it for sure, after all, he originally wanted to use "I am Kind" as a stepping stone, but ATV refused, so he made a detour with TVB and took the opportunity to bet Sir Shao to admit to the co-production.
It can be said that Zhang Jin's original intention has been achieved, and now even Sir Shao looks up to him in TVB, and in the long run, the profits generated by the joint operation of Jinlong and TVB are far higher than those of cooperation with ATV.
The ATV representative didn't understand Zhang Jin's thoughts, and thought that he had already agreed, so he took out the contract and said, "Let's sign the contract." ”
Zhang Jin suddenly smiled bitterly and stopped him: "You may have misunderstood what I meant, I won't sign this contract." ”
"Ugh!" The ATV representative looked bitter, "Please, if you don't sign the contract, I won't be able to go back and pay the errand." ”
"Now I have reached a verbal agreement with TVB. In the future, we will adopt the method of co-production for a long time, so if you offer more attractive conditions, I will not be able to cooperate with your company. Zhang Jin said: "This is my bottom line and principle of doing things. ”
"But...... For the sake of your sincerity, I'll help you find a way to deal with it. ”
"What a way!" The ATV representative rekindled hope, "Does Zhang Sheng want to re-register a company and then cooperate with ATV?" ”
"Hmmm! Your proposal coincides with mine. Zhang Jin approvingly: "But it's not that I cooperate with ATV, but a production company in Taiwan cooperates with ATV." ”
"Desk bend?"
Zhang Jin said: "Yes, I set up a production company in Taiwan as someone else, and then I wrote a script and found a few local actors in Taiwan. At the same time, you ATV can also send a few newcomers to support, so that you can not only make you have a business, but I will also be safe, how do you feel? ”
"Is that okay?" ATV representatives were a little embarrassed.
Zhang Jin said: "Of course, you can also find other production companies in Hong Kong, after all, many production companies have consulted TVB recently, but they have been rejected by TVB, you can give it a try." ”
ATV's representative said: Do you still need to say this kind of thing, our ATV has already contacted several production companies. But there is no one who can come up with a good script, if there is a good partner, I will beg you for nothing.
"Well, I can't call the shots on this matter." said the ATV representative.
"It doesn't matter. You can go back and report to the leader, or simply give my business card to Chairman Lin. ”
"Okay, okay." ATV represents that thank you so much, he has already decided, and after going back, he will directly hand over Zhang Jin's tomorrow to the last leader. In the future, you two kings will be kings in this matter, and the matter between the high-level leaders of Du Nyima, why bother for me to run errands.
Sent off ATV representatives. Zhang Jin went to the "Jin Weekly" next door to find Chen Shaohua to discuss the celebration of the "Gambling Saint".
"We have gone too far and have no topic to talk about, so we have to say to you, you see, the face of the moon is secretly changing, the face of the moon is secretly changing......"
Walking into Chen Shaohua's office, I heard Meng Tingwei's album, and Chen Shaohua sat at his desk to work on some documents.
"Why did you start to like listening to Chinese songs?"
Chen Shaohua stretched his waist and said, "Isn't it influenced by you, besides, Yaya is also my best friend, of course her songs have to be listened to, and they are very good." ”
"How is Yaya's album selling?" Zhang Jin scratched his head and sat down and asked.
"We started releasing it when we went to Rome, and it's been three days and almost a month, and it's sold 100,000 copies, which is not bad, and I contacted Taiwan this morning, according to the experience of Luo Dayou and Chen Sheng, this disc can sell 40-500,000 copies." Chen Shaohua got up and made a cup of coffee for Zhang Jin, "Congratulations, Jinlong Records has won the flag, Yaya is now the moon princess of the young man in Taiwan." ”
Zhang Jin was very surprised when he heard this, 500,000 copies is definitely a song for a newcomer, and Meng Tingwei can rely on the sales of this album to rank among the top ten in the Taiwan song industry.
Zhang Jin immediately patted a sycophant, "Tsk, it's not a loss to be the boss of Jinlong, and she knows the dynamics of its companies well!" ”
Chen Shaohua glanced at him, "Less, my mouth is so sweet today, there must be something." ”
"The lady who knows me has been busy a while ago, and the celebration of "Gambling Saint" will be delayed, and now "My Book" is on the right track, and the sixth uncle also gave three million in person, I just want to hold a celebration party, don't I come to find the lady to start the capital." Zhang Jin smiled and talked about the scale of the celebration and the people to be invited.
As soon as he heard that he was asking for money, Chen Shaohua knew that this guy was going to be a loser again, and looked at him with deep resentment on his forehead, "Please, there are four million remaining in the company's accounts, if you hold a small-scale celebration party, it's no problem, but if you invite people in the circle and Sir Shao to participate, the whole celebration will not be able to be tossed with one hundred thousand." ”
"And...... And the two TVB employees you sponsored will cost 500,000 yuan for the surgery, and if it goes on like this, our finances will be red. ”
After listening to Chen Shaohua's words, Zhang Jin immediately fell into contemplation, and said after a long time: "Shaohua, don't worry about it first, I'll figure out a way to deal with the money, and the celebration will start preparations according to the specifications I just said." ”
Chen Shaohua sighed. lowered his eyes, and suddenly said in a low tone: "Ah King, did you give two floors to Mommy?" ”
"Huh." Zhang Jin snorted.
"You're still laughing!" Chen Shaohua pursed his lips angrily and said, "I know you have me in your heart, but can you discuss this kind of thing with me first in the future." ”
Zhang Jin said: "Okay, I will ask you for instructions on the expenses of more than 50,000 yuan in the future." ”
Chen Shaohua said angrily when he heard this: "You earned all the money, please tell me what to do." ”
"You're my wife."
"It's working time, don't be so sensual." Chen Shaohua blushed and said, "Let's talk about the celebration, where is the hotel?" ”
"The Peninsula, old place, with discounts."
"Do you go often?"
"How often do you go. It's just two celebrations. ”
"Who else is a tycoon-level character besides Sir Shao?"
"I'll contact Zou Daheng here, and Huang Baiming is currently saying that he wants to come here in Xinyi City......"
The two were tired of discussing the invitation list in the office, and Li Xiaowei, the secretary on the other side of the studio, knocked on the door and came in.
"Boss, ATV Lin Sheng called just now, this is his contact information, I seem to be in a hurry to hear what he means."
"Oh, thank you." Zhang Jin took Lin Baixin's contact information, and directly grabbed the phone on Chen Shaohua's desk and dialed it.
"I'm Jinlong Zhang Jin, please transfer to Mr. Lin Baixin......"
Not much time. Lin Baixin's hearty laughter came from the other side of the phone: "Haha, Zhang Sheng, I have admired you for a long time, but I have just taken over ATV and have been busy." When do you have time to come out for a cup of coffee? ”
"Lin Sheng is so courageous, as soon as he took over ATV, he beat TVB out of breath, and I have long admired you for a long time."
"It's not like a fiasco in your hands!"
The two politely exchanged words for a long time, and Lin Baixin finally got to the point: "I listened to the people who visited. Jinlong has a long-term cooperation intention with TVB and does not plan to cooperate with our ATV. ”
Zhang Jin said: "That's right, Lin Sheng also knows that doing business pays attention to the word reputation. Although I had stumbling in my previous cooperation with TVB, it was not bad, and I couldn't get out of it in the short term. ”
"Hey, let's not be so screwed, open the skylight and say something, I'm still very interested in the way you said about cooperation, as long as you can save face in cleaning up, it doesn't matter what method you use."
As long as the result does not want the process, this is Lin Baixin's attitude, a typical businessman's thinking.
"Okay, give me two days, and I'll send you an overview of the script for the new play." The topic was opened, and Zhang Jin didn't ink with him.
"That...... It won't be like a script like "My Ben", right? I've heard that you're very proficient in this set, and since we're going to work together, I'm definitely not going to do anything embarrassing, so please be open and honest, how about it? ”
"Good! Then the complete script and plan, but it will take a week. ”
"Deal! Tomorrow I will have someone send a letter of intent for the contract, in order to show my sincerity, two million will be delivered together, I hope you will not let me down. ”
", Lin Baixin is going to do a big job!" After hanging up the phone, Zhang Jin didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and was completely impressed by Lin Baixin's courage.
If it weren't for Lin Baixin's later troubles and financial difficulties under the financial turmoil, the war between ATV and TVB might not have ended.
Chen Shaohua asked with concern: "What does he want to do?" ”
"Send money for cooperation, hehe, I was worried about money just now, now it's okay, tomorrow he will send two million over, as long as the two movies are released, our Jinlong can also turn losses into profits."
Chen Shaohua smiled bitterly, "Please, you don't seem to have ever done a loss-making business, okay, and you turned losses into profits, if you go out and say, I don't know if you will be beaten to death by many people." ”
Zhang Jin bared his teeth and couldn't stop laughing.
Chen Shaohua asked again, "What does he want to do?" ”
"Co-production." Zhang Jin said: "Wait a minute, I'll call my eldest brother first and ask him to register a production company." ”
Ten minutes later, Zhang Jin made his intentions and requirements clear on the phone.
"Why is it so troublesome, you wait, I'll call my sister-in-law to come and listen to the phone." The eldest brother complained on the phone, and soon the voice of a woman on the other side of the phone changed to a soft and snorting voice.
"Hello little brother, I'm Ding Xiaohui, just call me Ah Hui."
"Hello sister-in-law." Zhang Jin repeated the plan again.
Ding Xiaohui said: "Okay, I promise to make it beautiful for my little brother." ”
"Also, help me make an appointment with a few actors."
"Huh? You speak. ”
"Lin Yizhen, Ka Weiru, Bang Qiaqia and Bai Bing."
"Make a note of it, I'll get their slot as soon as possible."
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
"The family should be polite, too much to see the little brother, when will you come to Taichung to play, I will find a few beautiful Taiwanese sisters to accompany you."
"Uh, hehe, thank you sister-in-law for your kindness, let's talk back."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Jin found that Chen Shaohua was staring at him.
"Look at what, I have flowers on my face?"
Chen Shaohua shook his head and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Bang Qiaqia is the host of "Serial Cannon", he is quite famous in China Television, and there are not very many reviews of the white soldiers, who were stabbed and almost lost their lives when they performed with others due to a dispute a few years ago. ”
"One of these two people is ugly, and the other has a lot of right and wrong, what TV are you going to shoot?"
"Hehe, you'll find out another day." Zhang Jin sold a pass, "I'll go back to write the script first, and remember to call me when I get off work." ”
"Hmph, we'll find out later!"
Back in his office, Zhang Jin turned on the old antique computer and couldn't help sighing.
I haven't written a script for a month, and my hands are a little uncomfortable with my hands on the keyboard.
After squirming and pinching in the seat for a long time, Zhang Jincai typed in the words "There is a Fairy Wife in the Family", and after thinking about it, he typed four more words: "Chinese Hero".
"A Fairy Wife in the Family" can take advantage of the whirlwind of special functions and superpowers blown by "The Saint of Gambling" to receive a wave of ratings in Xiangjiang.
"Chinese Heroes" is a comic founded by Ma Rongcheng in 1980, which has a group of clusters in Xiangjiang, and if it is adapted into a TV series, the ratings will be very impressive.
Since Lin Baixin is so happy and bold, Zhang Jin doesn't hide it from him, and takes out two dramas in one go for him to choose.
Both are naturally better, and it doesn't matter if one is chosen, it's a big deal to make the other one out and sell it to the TV station in Taiwan, no matter how you get it, it's a sure deal.
After paying attention, Zhang Jin closed his eyes and pondered, and began to recall the plot of "A Fairy Wife in the Family".
It took half an hour, taking advantage of the deep memory, Zhang Jin crackled and knocked on the keyboard, the movement was simply earth-shattering, Li Xiaowei probed in several times to peek, and I didn't know that I thought the boss was angry and smashed the keyboard inside.
"Oh my boy, if this trend continues, I'll have a few more keyboards when I go back." Li Xiaowei thought so, how did she know that mechanical keyboards were particularly resistant to manufacturing. (To be continued......)
