Chapter 66: "Report to the Boss" is outrageous

Wang Xu thought that Zhuang Xiaodie was at home, but he never imagined that this girl had also learned to surprise people. He was indeed pleasantly surprised, the two of them interlocked their fingers, and when they got to the car, he remembered that he wanted to show Zhuang Xiaodie the photo before he was willing to let go.

"Fluttershy, you see I took a lot of fun pictures on the set."

Zhuang Xiaodie took the laptop and asked the beast to stretch out his bald head to look at it together.

Wang Xu took hundreds of photos, some of which were beautiful scenery, some were pictures of the crew filming, and some were photos with the actors.

Suddenly, Zhuang Xiaodie's eyes lit up and she saw an interesting text clip, marked "To be Wei*Bo, Wang Dazhui hugging Brother's thick legs", click in and see that there are three photos.

The first is a group photo of the main actors at the press conference of "Let the Bullets Fly", the most central position is the three actors, and the position of the hammer is on the very edge; The second is a group photo of Wang Xu, Ge Wei, and Zhou Yan, all three of them are smiling, but there is still an Uncle Ge between Hammer and Brother; The third photo is a group photo of Wang Xu and Zhou Yan, in this photo, the hammer hammer is holding his brother and smiling brightly, and the brother is actually grinning and grimacing, which shows that the relationship between the two is very close.

Zhuang Xiaodie can easily see the evolution of the relationship between Hammerhammer and her brother from unfamiliar to familiar to intimate from the comparison of the three photos, and unconsciously her eyes showed a proud color, and at this time, the beast Wow Wow screamed: "Wow, Sledgehammer, you are so powerful, I want to hold your thick legs, take me and pretend to take me to fly!" ”

"Take you to fly, you're as fat as a pig, and you light yourself up, that picture is so beautiful I don't dare to look at it!"

"Flutter!"

Zhuang Xiaodie looked at the beast and laughed awkwardly touching its bald head, and Fang Xiaoyan and Chen Ruan also laughed. Everyone stopped laughing for a while, and Wang Xu asked about the contract of "Report to the Boss".

"Called the beast, have we replied to several websites for our offer?"

"Not yet."

The beast shook his head, a little unconfident, and said, "Did you say that our offer was too high and scared them all?" ”

The price quoted by "Report Boss" to Youdou and other video sites is a buyout plus share, which is one more buyout condition than the contract signed by "Wanwan" and Youdou.com, and an additional buyout price of 1oo per episode.

The buyout plus share model is the highest level of contract in the industry, and it is usually only enjoyed by TV dramas that are high-quality products, works by famous directors or well-known TV series. For example, a series of TV series such as "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" starring Brother Hu that already has a reputation are eligible, and general TV series only have a buyout price and cannot have a share.

The buyout price of 1oo per episode thrown by Wanhe Tianyi really staggered the video giants who were interested in bidding, and three of the six major video websites immediately thought that this was a sky-high asking price and gave up, only Youdou, Qiyi, and Pea were still studying.

Coincidentally, at this time, the three companies were holding internal meetings to discuss the quotation of Wanhe Tianyi. Let's take a look at how the internal meeting of Wandou.com was held.

The meeting was presided over by Chairman Gao Wei, and the participants included directors and editors-in-chief of various departments, including He 6, the director of the TV drama department, and Pan Hua, the editor-in-chief.

This time, Editor-in-Chief Pan no longer underestimated Wanhe Tianyi, but at the beginning of the meeting, he still made it clear that it was impossible to accept a million-dollar buyout, he said: "Our purchase of an excellent TV series is between 6o-8o yuan, if it is the second season of "Never Expected", of course it is acceptable, but the other party is a new work, and Director He and I are not optimistic about this work after analysis, and think it is not worth such a high price." ”

Gao Wei glanced at Director He and asked, "Director He, tell me about your analysis." ”

He 6 said: ""Report to the Boss" is a comedy miniseries starring Wan Wan's original cast, and the idea is to focus on the "film workplace", reconstructing some classic films or bad movies, reinterpreting or as they say. For example, in the first episode, they reinterpreted Bruce Lee's classic movie "Jingwumen" in 1981. ”

After a pause, He 6 continued: "I have to say that the idea itself is commendable, and the reason why I am not optimistic is that classic movies are deeply rooted in the hearts of the audience, and it is difficult to erase and be subverted. Classic movies can be remade, and they can even be reconstructed, but this "Report to the Boss" is too subversive, and the flirting is too much. I'm not optimistic, and I believe the audience can't accept it. ”

As soon as He 6 finished speaking, Pan Hua continued: "Gao Dong, do you think that "Report to the Boss" is also a small-budget system, can it deconstruct the classic movie into a high level? And Wang Xu is no longer the only leading actor, which will also disappoint the audience. I have to say that they have overconfidence. ”

Gao Wei nodded, and Pan Hua continued: "Chairman, it is better to spend this money on a very risky work at such a high price, it is better to put this money on the online drama we make ourselves. Our TV drama department has carefully prepared a youth web series "Welcome to Love", please take a look. ”

"Welcome to Love" is a youth online idol drama, the first season of 1o episodes of 3o minutes each, the drama is starring high-quality idols Zheng Yuanyi and Li Feier. Pan Hua boasted that this is a high-quality, high-level, online drama, and it is by no means the "copycat spoof" or "shoddy" online drama that people had in their previous impressions.

At the final meeting, Wandou.com decided to invest 10 million yuan to create a self-made web drama "Welcome to Love", and the reply to Wanhe Tianyi was 3o million buyouts plus shares.

Like Pea.com, Qiyi.com doesn't think that "Report Boss" is worth such a high price, their focus has always been on TV dramas, so their focus has shifted to purchasing "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3", and the reply to Wanhe Tianyi is 350,000 buyouts plus shares.

Different from the above two, there are two voices in the internal meeting of Youdou.com, one is represented by the editor-in-chief of the TV drama department, Luo, who strongly agrees that "Report Boss" must be taken down; Another voice is that other departments think that the price is too high, and they are dissatisfied with the company's tilt of all resources towards the TV drama department.

Among them, Director Liu of the Sports Channel Department said: "I always think that the price of one million to buy an online short drama is too high, and the highest price we purchased last year was 12o yuan." ”

Editor-in-Chief Luo said: "I believe that the combination of Wang Da Hammer and the Beast is worth this price. ”

Director Liu smiled: "Lao Luo, I see that you are a fan of Wang Da Hammer, I admit that Wan Wan has achieved brilliant results, if it is the second season of "Wan Wan", I will raise my hands in favor, but this is just a new work, Wang Da Hammer's fame has a lot of bubbles, and the real price is not so high, I think the buyout price of 5o Wan Yi episode is more reasonable. ”

Editor-in-chief Luo retorted: "I'm really a fan of Wang Da Hammer, I know the best here, I went to Wanhe Tianyi Company three times before and after, I know what kind of team it is, except for Wang Da Hammer and Beast Everyone else is a geek, we can underestimate a Wang Da Hammer, but we must not underestimate the energy of two or three Wang Da Hammer explosions." At the beginning, Mr. Gu and I, as well as all of you here, who would have thought that "Never Expected" would have achieved such a hot result, so far, the economic value directly brought by Wan Wan to the company has exceeded 30 million, and it is expected to reach hundreds of millions of income in the next six months to the end of this year, not counting the other invisible benefits brought by this drama. ”

Editor-in-chief Luo said that his mouth was a little dry, and after taking a sip of tea, he continued: "Everyone has seen the internal report, yesterday's "Never Expected" has passed 500 million on-demand broadcasts, and our website has increased its traffic by 1o% because of the show, and the company's stock has also risen by 3%. ”

"Lao Luo, what we're talking about now is not "Never Expected".

"Alright, you all don't quarrel. Let's take a look at a trailer sent by the crew of "Let the Bullets Fly"! ”

At this time, CEO Gu Yongqiang interrupted the two who were arguing, and it turned out that his assistant had just come in and whispered a few words in his ear, saying that the crew of "Let the Bullets Fly" sent the first version of the trailer.

This version of the trailer is only 2 minutes, and most of the camera focus is on the three major actors, but Wang Dazhui actually showed his face three times. You must know that Wang Dazhui is only an inconspicuous supporting role in the bullet drama full of big names, and even Chen Kun only shows his face twice in the trailer.

This time, Editor-in-Chief Luo has something to say, he said that from this trailer, it can be seen that Wang Dazhui's fame is not false, and he believes that with the bullet crew really launching large-scale publicity, Wang Dazhui's fame will go to the next level, and he is worth the price.

In the end, Gu Yongqiang made the decision, quoted 8o yuan for the buyout plus share, and he personally lobbied.
