Chapter 570: New Contract! Die for the bold!
Among the three, Lee Seung Gi's acting skills are the worst, but his popularity is very high, originally Menjie was going to give him a salary of 20,000 soft girl coins per episode, but this guy wanted to join the crew of "The Rumored Seven Princesses" very much, and finally lowered his salary and joined the crew at a price of 10,000 soft girl coins per episode.
However, compared to Lee Seung-gi's self-lowering salary, the other two did not do it, after all, they already have some fame in the film and television industry, even if they starred in "The Rumored Seven Princesses", they reluctantly agreed, so it is naturally impossible to reduce their salary.
Among them, Li Tailan's acting skills have reached the B level, which is slightly inferior to today's Menjie, and the salary is the same as the market price, 40,000 soft girl coins per episode.
And Kim Hye-sun, who already has A-level acting skills, has a higher salary, and has reached the level of 100,000 soft girl coins per episode!
Just these three people, every episode will take away the salary of 150,000 soft girl coins from Menjie's hands!
Simply, in the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses", there are four heroines and four male protagonists, and everyone's roles are basically evenly shared, with a total of 80 episodes of TV series, and each of these three people can basically appear in more than 30 episodes.
But Rao is like this, Menjie will also pay a salary of 5 million soft girl coins for these three people!
The upfront investment of 10 million, plus the actor's salary of 8 million, is a total of 18 million soft girl coins, if you count the post-production, then the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" will cost Menjie at least 20 million soft girl coins investment.
Even, if there is any accident, the price will rise a lot, and if you add a part of the liquidity, the whole TV series will be completely set. It will probably cost Menjie about 25 million soft sister coins, and if converted into Korean won, it will be 4.25 billion yuan, an astronomical amount......
"The total budget of 25 million is not a lot!"
Nodding slightly, Menjie also knew very well in his heart that the investment in this TV series was definitely not very high.
Although there are two big names, Kim Hye-sun and Lee Tae-ran, this TV series itself is similar to "Wulin Gaiden", it is a TV series with multiple protagonists. has four male protagonists, and the other two female protagonists are relatively low in salary, which lowers the overall budget.
If it's like "Wulin Gaiden", all the protagonists will appear in basically every episode, or there are only two protagonists, Kim Hye-sun and Lee Tae-ran. If it appears in every episode, it's just the salary of these two. Menjie has to pay 12 million soft girl coins.
Overall. The investment of 25 million is not a lot, and Menjie can easily bear it.
The TV series "Wulin Gaiden" will be broadcast on Hu Nan Satellite TV before the year, and Menjie will be able to get a premiere fee of 16 million.
Although it is not enough to use this money to shoot the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses", the upfront investment is enough.
Then, wait until the TV series "Wulin Gaiden" becomes popular. Just selling replay rights, let alone filming a "Rumored Seven Princesses", even if it is three or five, it is absolutely enough. Even Menjie was able to save a lot of money.
In terms of funding, at least in Menjie's opinion, it is definitely not a problem!
"I feel the same, Zhilu Dao waits until the TV series "Wulin Gaiden" is broadcast and the fire is fired, we can not only set up a film and television company and start filming this new TV series, but also be able to leave a lot of money!"
Nodding, Wan Tongtong is also very looking forward to the near future.
"As long as everything goes well, there is absolutely no problem!"
Nodding slightly, Menjie no longer looked at the budget of the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses", and focused on the contract with KBS TV.
Previously, the contract given by KBS TV station mainly meant that as long as the ratings of the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" can reach 20%, it is willing to pay Menjie 18 million for the premiere, and as the ratings continue to rise, this fee can be increased.
Starting from 20% of the ratings, a 5% increase in ratings will increase the premiere fee of 5 million, and a 5% increase in ratings will increase by 6 million, followed by 7 million, 8 million......
In other words, when the 20% rating is 18 million, the 25% rating is 23 million, the 30% rating is 29 million, and the 35% rating is 3600, if the rating can reach 40%, Menjie will directly get 44 million soft girl coins!
In other words, as long as the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" can directly recover the cost when the ratings of KBS TV reach about 27%, the increased premiere fee after that is all money earned!
However, Menjie was not very satisfied with this contract, and ordered Wan Tongtong to contact KBS TV station and change the contract!
After the change of the contract, the minimum will be directly pulled from the original 20% ratings to 30% ratings, that is to say, the ratings of the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" can only get money when it reaches 30%, otherwise, there will be no dime!
Such a proposal, at the beginning, made Wan Tongtong very depressed, and even refuted it more than once, but Menjie insisted on it, and even said, "If you don't contact KBS TV, I will contact them", which made Wan Tongtong very helpless.
In the end, I may also feel that even if the ratings of the TV series cannot reach 30% and I can't get the premiere fee, it is just a loss of more than 20 million soft girl coins, and I can still maintain the relationship with KBS TV, coupled with Menjie's insistence, Wan Tongtong finally compromised, agreed to Menjie's request, negotiated with KBS TV, and finally determined the contract.
Anyway, even if the ratings can't reach 30%, the rebroadcast rights in South Korea, the premiere and rebroadcast in China, can also recover the cost, and the big deal is to make a little less.
Moreover, if the ratings of the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" in South Korea can reach more than 30%, the benefits that will be obtained are also very amazing!
After the revision, the contract has made it clear that as long as the ratings of the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" can reach 30%, KBS TV must pay Menjie 33 million for the premiere fee!
Then, when the ratings increase by 5% and reach 35%, 40 million soft girl coins must be paid to Menjie.
If it can be increased by another 5% to 40%, Menjie will get 50 million soft girl coins for the premiere fee.
If the ratings of the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" can really reach 40%, the premiere fee in South Korea alone can not only recover the cost, but also earn double the profit out of thin air.
And it's important to note that this is nothing more than the premiere rights in South Korea!
There are also rebroadcast rights in South Korea, premiere rights in Huaxia, and rebroadcast rights in Huaxia, after this series, if the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" can become popular, the wealth that Menjie will earn will be an astronomical amount.
"Brother Jie, do you really have so much confidence in this TV series that you think its ratings can reach more than 30%?"
Although the contract has been signed, and it has been seen that there is a mental preparation of 'making 20 million less', but in Wan Tongtong's heart, he is still full of expectations.
After all, in South Korea, there are very few TV dramas that can reach more than 30% of the ratings every year, and it is already very good to reach more than 20%, and it is very difficult to make the ratings of TV dramas break through to more than 30%, even Wan Tongtong is not sure that the ratings of this TV series can break through 30%!
However, compared to Wan Tongtong's doubts and worries, Menjie, who has the Tianwang system, knows very well in his heart how good the results of this TV series are!
In South Korea, the highest rating of this drama once climbed to 43.8%, becoming the annual ratings champion of KBS TV.
And the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" invested and filmed by Menjie, because of the replacement of three Chinese stars, may have some impact on the ratings of the entire TV series, but Menjie believes that even if it has an impact, it must not be too much.
In Menjie's mind, even if it drops slightly, it can probably remain above 40%, but it shouldn't be higher than 42%.
This number may be slightly off, but Menjie believes that the highest ratings of this TV series will not even reach 30%, unless KBS TV does not want to give money and deliberately suppresses this TV series.
However, such an action is almost impossible, Menjie can make a lot of money, KBS TV can also earn more advertising fees, and there is an agreement in the contract that as long as the ratings of the TV series "The Rumored Seven Princesses" can be broadcast for ten episodes, it can be maintained at more than 10%, KBS TV will not allow any way to suppress this TV series.
If this really happens, the wealth that KBS TV will pay to Menjie will be immeasurable, and Menjie can't believe that the other party will do such a brainless thing!
"Don't worry, I can guarantee that this TV series will surprise me and you as well!"
With a chuckle, a confident smile appeared on Men Jie's face, Wan Tongtong nodded slightly, and didn't say anything more, although he was worried in his heart, he also chose to support Men Jie unconditionally. (To be continued......)
