Chapter 353: The Big Cake That Holds the Dead
"I called you here today, the problems of the new variety show are only one aspect, the most important thing is to discuss some other issues."
Chen Fengxiao didn't talk too much about Chu Shi's new variety show and the cooperation rules with Blueberry Channel, but talked about other things.
Of course, this is also in Chu Shi's expectations! Although Chen Fengxiao asked about the settlement of the new variety show as soon as he came up, it seemed to be different from others, but Chu Shi knew that if it wasn't for other things, Chen Fengxiao would not call him anyway, and called himself to the headquarters of Mango Channel from far away.
"A long time ago, you asked me if I could get a share of the two TV series from Mango Channel, at that time, I gave you an answer of 'no', it is true that you are kind to our Mango Channel, and you have helped Mango Channel and me, if you can, I will promote this matter no matter what, respectively to you and Fan Bingling, each of whom has two prime-time shares, after all, with our relationship and my understanding of you, I believe you will never do anything like Huangtian Entertainment Company."
Chen Fengxiao smiled helplessly, "But you also know that Mango TV is indeed frightened by the four companies of Huangtian Entertainment, each company can only get a share of the prime file at most every year, this is the rule, no matter who it is, you can't break this rule, I also hope you can understand." β
Chu Shi nodded slightlyβf, he could understand Mango Tai's concerns very well, "Once I was bitten by a snake, I was afraid of the well rope for ten years, if it were me, I would also set this rule." β
Chu Shi, Fan Bingling and Chen Feng smiled clearly. Dimensional Entertainment and Ice World Entertainment Company will definitely not make a betrayal like Huangtian Entertainment Company, but others do not know. Mango Terrace is not a place where Chen Fengxiao can make an assertive statement, and others don't know Chu Shi and Fan Bingling. It's normal to have concerns, and it's impossible for Chu Shi to force everyone to agree to a deeper level of cooperation with him, even if he has the kindness to save Mango Terrace.
"However, after all, you and Fan Bingling are the heroes who saved Mango Terrace, and it is reasonable that you should be given benefits that surpass those of other partners, which is not only me, but even other high-level executives of Mango Terrace are also very recognized. After all, such an important matter, let alone me, even if it is me and the director of the main station combined, it is impossible to decide directly, such an intention mainly comes from you and Fan Bingling, the kindness to our Mango Terrace! β
Chen Feng turned around with a smile and said to Chu Shi, "So." For a period of time, Mango Terrace has also been researching how to give you and Fan Bingling enough benefits! β
"I'm not polite to Brother Fengxiao anymore!"
Chu Shi's eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to ask. "What kind of benefit is it?"
"You're welcome, kid!"
Chen Feng smiled, he knew that Chu Shi was a human being, and he also knew it. Chu Shi didn't value interests so much in front of him, but was joking with himself more. However, he is also quite concerned about this 'benefit', and Chen Fengxiao doesn't talk much nonsense. "First of all, the share of TV dramas in prime time on weekends can't increase for you in any way, there is no doubt about that! And after that, Mango Channel's first internal idea was to give you a share of the 'variety show weekend prime time', however, this mention was completely rejected as soon as it emerged! β
Chen Feng smiled bitterly, "Even if you don't give compensation, if you want to settle in Mango Channel, at least it will be the treatment of the weekend prime time, and even our Mango Station will have to pay more benefits, so it seems that this is not necessary at all!" β
"And then?"
"Then, we discussed the issue of the share of ordinary TV dramas."
Chen Feng shrugged his shoulders with a smile, "The prime file has a clear restriction of only one part, and the ordinary file also has a limit of two per entertainment company, whether it is Dimensional Entertainment Company or Ice World Entertainment Company, the 'ordinary file' is not yet fully loaded, after the meeting of our Mango Channel senior management, it was finally decided that in 2010, you and Fan Bingling will be additionally allocated a share of the broadcast of ordinary TV dramas!" β
"Of course, this is considering that your two companies have just started in terms of TV drama production, and I am afraid that they do not have the ability to produce too many TV drama works, so they only gave one share respectively, and after two years, if these two companies have deep roots and their production capacity overflows, under the condition of ensuring good cooperation, they can increase another share as appropriate, and finally reach one prime share and two ordinary share for each entertainment company."
After speaking, Chen Feng grinned and said, "How is it, brother is interesting enough, right?" β
"Interesting!"
Chu Shi's face also showed a touch of joy, "Although it is the broadcast share of ordinary TV dramas, the ordinary files of Mango Channel far exceed the ordinary files of other TV stations, but in this regard, Sister Bingbing and I have made a lot of money, and if we are lucky, we may be able to produce two popular TV series!" β
The broadcast share of ordinary TV dramas of a TV station with a weak ratings base can support a small TV drama production company and feed dozens of employees, and for Dimension Entertainment and Ice World Entertainment, it can also expand part of the scale, which is more valuable than the ordinary share of Blueberry Channel.
Imagine that Chu Shi only got two ordinary share from Blueberry Channel with the second season of "The Voice of China" and the new variety show, although there is a chance to upgrade to a prime file share, but Mango Channel's side has obtained such two shares for no reason, which can definitely be called a surprise.
Even if it is a top entertainment company, it is difficult to get a share of Mango Channel's ordinary files, and if any employee talks about it, he will definitely get a thick red envelope, and a promotion and salary increase are not a problem.
Considering many aspects, Chen Fengxiao's gift is really not light!
"It just so happens that you came over today, and I'll ask the person in charge to prepare the relevant contracts later, and you can directly sign the cooperation contracts of Dimension Entertainment and Ice World Entertainment! In terms of Ice World Entertainment, you can represent Fan Bingling, right? β
"Of course, even if it is an unreasonable contract, as long as I sign it, Sister Bingbing will fulfill it."
"I have long known that the relationship between you and Fan Bingling is not just as simple as ordinary friends and partners!"
Chen Feng smiled and said to Chu Shi with squeezing his eyebrows, as if to say, 'It's all men, I understand', which is completely different from his usual strict appearance, which makes the wry smile even more helpless.
After a light meal at noon, Chu Shi flew back to Yanjing, directly found the crew of the TV series "Rouge Snow", and pulled Fan Bingling to the cafΓ© on the side to talk in detail......
After learning the news, both Chu Shi and Fan Bingling should be smiling, after all, such a good thing is not to mention Chu Shi and the two, I am afraid that even if Cai Honglei, the president of Tang Dynasty Entertainment, meets him, he will be happy for three days, but Chu Shi's brows have been frowning.
What is certain is that this is a good thing, something that any TV drama production company dreams of, but for Dimension Entertainment and Ice World Entertainment, there is a lot of pressure.
"Before, we were still worried about the lack of enough TV drama broadcast share, after all, according to our original expectations, our two companies planned to produce two TV series in 2010, and we didn't even know how much to do because of this matter."
Fan Bingling habitually stirred the coffee in the cup, but his mind was not on it, and he looked at Chu Shi helplessly, "But the current situation is completely reversed!" The share of TV series broadcast is too much, with the strength of our two companies, it is really very difficult to produce three TV series in 2010 one after another, you must know that so far, "Rouge Snow" and "The Inheritors" have not been filmed, how can there be too much time to shoot new dramas?! β
"I'm also very aware of that."
Chu Shi also smiled helplessly, "But the opportunity is in front of you, can you still refuse?" Some time ago, Mango TV lost four long-term cooperative entertainment companies, and a large number of TV drama broadcast shares were vacant, so we picked up a leak, under normal circumstances...... Just look at Blueberry Channel, even if we pay for two 'variety show champion' level works, we only get one chance! β
"If I reject Chen Fengxiao this time, when we have the ability to produce three or even more TV series a year in two years, I am afraid that this share will already be eaten by other entertainment companies, and it will be difficult to get it again!"
"Yes, since the opportunity is in front of us, even if we don't have such a good appetite, we must swallow it in one bite! If it were me, I would definitely agree! β
Fan Bingling nodded, very much in agreement with Chu Shi's words.
There are many excellent TV drama producers in the entertainment industry, and many small TV drama production companies also have excellent screenwriters, directors, and producers, and even some TV drama production companies founded by some well-connected and well-known public figures.
But no matter how famous you are, how hard your relationship is, or how strong your ability is, it is difficult to get a share of an ordinary TV series, if it weren't for the situation on Mango Channel, even if it was an ordinary share, Chu Shi would not be able to get it at all, unless it was exchanged for two variety shows at the level of 'variety show champions'.
And now that there is such an opportunity, even if it is possible to be held to death, it must not be let go, at this point, Chu Shi and Fan Bingling, who are full of momentum, quickly reached an agreement.
But reaching an agreement on opinions is nothing, Chu Shi and the others are still frowning, and they are constantly thinking in their hearts, what can be done to make the two companies completely digest this big cake that can support the dead, and if this problem is not solved, it will still be empty!
