Chapter 169: Fame and fortune must be reaped

The filming of the first issue of "The Birth of a Family" was not smooth sailing, but it also made family members more aware of their respective positions in the show. Even Li Shengxian and the filming staff also know the specific process of this show better.

The same two days and one night of filming time, although it made the family members feel hard. But they all know that compared with the two days and one night hosted by Jiang Hudong, their show is indeed much more humane.

After the board was over, Li Shengxian also discussed it with the family members. When the two old men who went on a trip came back, everyone got up and left, preparing for the next second program recording.

The recording of an episode of the program allowed Li Shengxian to have a better understanding of the family members. In the same way, the family members also have a better understanding of the young planner's ability to shoot and record.

After returning to Seoul, Lee Sung-hyun had time to study and prepare for exams, and by the way, he went to the "You Are My Destiny" crew. And his new novel has also begun to be serialized on the Internet.

About this novel, it is also inspired by fragments of memory. Overall, this is yet another novel capable of being adapted for television. So much so that after only two days of serialization of the novel, a TV station planned to buy the adaptation rights.

With the advantage of cooperation, SBS moved quickly this time, and Park Chang-tae, the head of broadcasting, greeted him first. Even Li Shengxian, who came to the TV station to review the edited clips, also felt a little crying and laughing.

"Minister Park, are you in a hurry? My novel has only been updated for less than 10,000 words in total, are you so sure you want to sign the TV adaptation rights? ’

Faced with Lee Sung-hyun's surprise, Park Chang-tae said very directly: "Seng-hyun, this is your third novel." We were late in the first two dramas. This drama, no matter what, you have to cooperate with us! ”

With the continuous hit of "You Are My Destiny". Many people thought that the remuneration for 10 million episodes was too high. But now it seems. KBS has obviously picked up a big bargain.

With super high ratings, not to mention dominating the ratings championship in the same period, advertising revenue has also skyrocketed. This was also a rare achievement for the director of KBS Broadcasting, who boldly signed the contract at that time!

It is said that Li Shengxian has a good eye for people, but he can boldly sign a contract for the adaptation in advance, and also give a salary of 10 million episodes, which also requires a little courage and courage!

In view of this situation, Lee Sung-hyun could only say, "Minister Park, I think there is something. There's still no need to be in a hurry. If this novel is updated, I'm afraid it will last for a while.

In my vision, this novel will not be too long, and it will only be suitable for adaptation into a weekend drama or a water and wood drama. And if nothing else, I'm planning to work with you SBS. So, there's really no need to rush to sign the contract. ”

As her aunt Lee Min-joo said, today's Lee Sung-hyun has cooperated with the three major TV stations. Although with SBS, there is a show "Birth of a Family". But TV dramas are Lee Sung-hyun's main business!

In addition, regarding the signing of the contract, Li Shengxian, who has a brokerage company, will naturally not be in such a hurry as before. The relevant contract was signed, although it was still Li Shengxian who took the idea. But it is still handed over to the broker to be responsible.

'Okay, that's what I want!' We're so scared, it's too late this time. If you cooperate with other stations, it will be really difficult for us to explain to the audience. This is your third adaptation. We're really going to settle on SBS. ’

Regarding Park Chang-tae's affirmative tone, Lee Sung-hyun could only say, "Minister Park." Rest assured, under all equal conditions, I will give priority to working with you. It's just that the minister should know that even if he signs the contract, he needs to wait for the end of the novel! ”

"Yes, please believe that we at SBS will give you a satisfactory terms of cooperation. ’

Regarding the terms of cooperation, the SBS side is equally clear. With the success of the second work, Lee Sung-hyun has been promoted from a popular screenwriter to a successful screenwriter, and the remuneration for his TV series is only afraid that it cannot be too low.

Soon after the negotiation with SBS ended, MBC and KBS really contacted one after another, hoping to sign the right to adapt the novel with Lee Sung-hyun in advance. Regarding this matter, Li Shengxian also gave a later reply to the two TV stations.

As Lee Sung-hyun's agent, Park Shu-ok also said unexpectedly: "Sung-hyun, it seems that you have really succeeded in the screenwriting industry!" It's only been a long time since this novel was updated, and the three major TV stations are vying to contact you to sign a contract! ”

'Auntie, there's no need to be in a hurry. I have a lot of things on hand, so I'll talk about it slowly. Personally, I think it would be better to wait for the filming of this drama at hand to be almost done, and then sign a third drama. ’

"Yes, as long as you can maintain your current form, I think the remuneration for your third work can reach at least 20 million or more." With less than 20 million per episode, you don't need to talk to them again. ’

The script remuneration of 20 million episodes sounds very high. Li Shengxian, who can enter this circle, knows that scripts similar to the Hong sisters are currently at this price, and some are even higher than this.

Therefore, in South Korea, the proportion of production fees for the screenwriter is also not low when producing a TV series. Even when the TV series has good ratings, the screenwriter can get some corresponding compensation.

Thinking of this, Li Shengxian quickly said: "Aunt Park, about the cooperation of my third work, you can communicate with all the major TV stations when you arrive." The overseas copyright of this drama, I plan to cooperate in the distribution in the name of the company.

For the third drama, I have the same expectations. If they agree, even if they don't have a lot of share, I agree to reduce the remuneration appropriately to work with them. After all, I need to fight for more interests for the company. ”

'Oh, so much faith! Okay, I'll talk to them about that. ’

With the understanding of the company's affairs and the business of this circle, Li Shengxian also hopes to strive for more benefits. The amount of interest can also determine his status and influence in this circle.

With the backing of the company, his cooperation with the three major TV stations is different from other screenwriters. And he believes that the three major TV stations also understand this. In Li Shengxian's situation, it's really not bad for the income of the script remuneration!

It's just that for the three major TV stations, the overseas copyright distribution of TV dramas is also an important income for them. Some well-known screenwriters will also get corresponding dividend income. And the cooperative distribution that Li Shengxian said is undoubtedly higher.

But Li Shengxian has confidence in his works, and he also hopes that the works he creates can get more benefits for himself and the company. This kind of interest is also a kind of brand influence some time!

As far as the current situation is concerned, the reorganized film and television company is in great need of some popularity. If you can achieve some success in overseas distribution, you can also promote the company's films overseas!

Fame and fortune, for Li Shengxian, no longer simply value one aspect. He wants to have both! (To be continued......)
