When Director Liu saw Chen Shaoyi asking, he smiled and said: "Brother Chen, your ability to write scripts is unparalleled in the world, and every script is an excellent work. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info My idea is that you will write the script, and then our two TV stations will co-produce it, what do you think? ”

"Fit?" Chen Shaoyi asked in surprise.

Director Liu affirmed: "That's right, it is a co-production, combining the resources of our two TV stations to shoot a high-quality TV series." ”

Hearing Director Liu's affirmative words, Chen Shaoyi fell into deep thought again.

The word co-production is both unfamiliar and familiar to Chen Shaoyi, in terms of film, Phoenix Pictures has invested a lot of money, and "Best Partner", which is still being filmed, is a co-production, which is a cooperation between Phoenix Pictures and New Art City.

There has been a precedent for co-production in movies, but in TV series, co-production Chen Shaoyi really didn't think about it before. When Chen Shaoyi was in Hong Kong, he couldn't find a co-production partner at all, so it was difficult for Chen Shaoyi to find a wireless co-production, which was obviously impossible, with the hostile relationship between Phoenix TV and wireless, it was difficult for the two to sit down and discuss the co-production, so the co-production of TV series was really unfamiliar to Chen Shaoyi.

Although I haven't done it, Chen Shaoyi is really a little excited about Director Liu's proposal to co-produce, Phoenix TV wants to expand, wants to expand its popularity in other regions, co-production has become a very necessary means, and it is also a very good way, it is a mainstream way in the future, Chen Shaoyi's soul comes from later generations, so he naturally knows this. And the benefits of co-productions are not just a reduction in investment, nor is it a little benefit. The biggest advantage is that you can use the other party's power to develop yourself, and quickly improve your influence and popularity in other places.

If you really cooperate with China TV, this is not only to make Phoenix TV profitable. Phoenix Pictures and Phoenix Records can also be well promoted with the help of China Television's platform. This is also extremely helpful to Chen Shaoyi, who has allowed these two companies to enter the Taiwan market.

Thinking of this, Chen Shaoyi made a decision in his heart, and asked Director Liu: "Brother Liu wants to co-produce, this proposal is good, but what is the specific co-production method." In terms of interests, how will we divide them? What kind of thoughts does Brother Liu have? ”

Seeing Chen Shaoyi's move, Director Liu unconsciously smiled on his face and replied, "That's what I think." As I said before, the script was written by you, Brother Chen, and the remaining funds, actors, and crew members made up half of our two TV stations. As for interests, we only need the broadcast rights of co-produced dramas in Taiwan, and everything outside Taiwan belongs to Brother Chen. What do you think of this proposal? ”

Director Liu's words, Chen Shaoyi heard them clearly. The distribution of interests of China Television is not high. Seeing that Director Liu had given himself such a big profit, Chen Shaoyi asked in surprise: "Brother Liu is not a loss by doing this?" ”

"There is nothing to suffer or lose, this cooperation condition was proposed by my brother, and my brother, you also provided the most important script, your script is the guarantee of ratings, you have more scripts, my brother naturally can't take advantage of you, and you can get the broadcast rights in Taiwan. We are already very satisfied. Director Liu smiled and said again. Of course, I still have one condition, that is, if we co-produce a Chinese film, I don't know if my brother agrees to such a condition? ”

Although Director Liu's words are beautiful, in fact, the reasons that really made Director Liu make such a decision are: first, China Television is a government-run television station, and its main focus is in Taiwan, so it is difficult to expand its influence beyond Taiwan; The second is that at present, China Television is currently fighting with the three TV stations of Taiwan Television and China Television, and it does not care about the market outside Taiwan. The third is that there are not many TV dramas exported by China Television, and it is not easy to sell TV dramas to other regions.

Therefore, for Director Liu, the broadcasting rights outside Taiwan are chicken ribs, so Director Liu simply gave all these to Chen Shaoyi, which can be regarded as selling Chen Shaoyi a friendship, which can better reach this cooperation and plant seeds for the benefits of Chen Shaoyi in the future.

Director Liu is quite shrewd, he does not suffer a loss in doing this, whether it is a co-production or a self-made film, China Television can only broadcast it in Taiwan. According to his current proposal, the co-production produced by the two parties can save half of the investment of China Television; Second, China Television can get Chen Shaoyi's script; Third, China Television can also get the support of Phoenix TV's film and television talents; And the fourth benefit is the last condition of Director Liu, it is best to shoot a Chinese film. With these, it will be much more advantageous for China Television to confront Taiwan Television and China Television in the future.

Chen Shaoyi didn't fully know these thoughts of Director Liu, but he also guessed some.

But no matter what, Director Liu's proposal is more beneficial to Phoenix TV, although it has lost the broadcasting rights in Taiwan, but it can use the platform of China Television to expand its influence, and this is still in exchange for saving general funds, which is really beneficial to Chen Shaoyi. However, co-producing Chinese films still has some impact on Chen Shaoyi, after all, the current film and television dramas watched by Hong Kong audiences are still dominated by Cantonese dramas, and it is really difficult for Chen Shaoyi to say how the market of Chinese films is in Hong Kong.

Things are good and there are disadvantages, but in general, the advantages still outweigh the disadvantages, and Chen Shaoyi is still more inclined to agree. However, Chen Shaoyi thinks that it is better to discuss this matter with the staff of the TV station, and gather everyone's opinions before making a decision.

After making a decision, Chen Shaoyi opened his mouth and said with a smile: "Brother Liu is so generous, he has given us such a big profit for Phoenix TV, I should have agreed." However, Brother Liu should also know that I still have to make a movie in Taiwan at the moment, and I can't write the script for the time being, if Brother Liu is not in a hurry, after my film is completed, we will talk about cooperation in this area in detail, what do you think? ”

When Director Liu saw Chen Shaoyi say this, he also felt that what the other party said made sense, Chen Shaoyi had no time at all during this time, and without his script, it was useless to say more. And he also saw that Chen Shaoyi had already made a move, so he was not in a hurry.

Director Liu nodded lightly and said with a smile: "This is not in a hurry, my brother can still afford to wait for this time, and the specific matters of the co-production will wait for my brother to finish filming the current film." ”

"Then thank you Brother Liu for your understanding."

"By the way, Brother Chen is going to film in Taiwan recently, if you can mention it if you have a place for my brother, my brother will definitely not have a second word."

"Then I will thank Brother Liu first, if there is really a difficulty, I will definitely not be polite to Brother Liu." (To be continued.) )
