"Mr. Han, I didn't expect your film to be so good, this can be on the big screen." The one who spoke was Ma Jianjun, deputy general manager of Fox Video, who was the representative of Fox Video this time, who came to watch the film and negotiate the copyright of the online broadcast of this drama. He can also be regarded as an old acquaintance with Han Li, so he is naturally closer.

"Hahaha, I also think that Mr. Han should you just build a version on the big screen. According to this result, the box office will be at least hundreds of millions. When the time comes, you will sell the drama version, and you will make more money in this way. Zhang Tong, senior vice president of Qiyi.com, also said to him.

In this regard, Han Li smiled and shook his head. To be honest, he is not the first to hear this suggestion, for example, Tang Mingcheng next to him has such a suggestion after seeing the sample. To be honest, Han Li was naturally a little moved to make more money, but after thinking about it carefully, Han Li immediately shook his head.

Greedy and chewy, Han Li has just stepped into the film and television industry now, so let's start with the drama little by little. If you are too greedy and aggressive, you may have problems.

So after hearing the words of the two again, Han Li shook his head and said, "Regarding the movie, we don't have this plan for the time being. The wonderful shots and content of this drama are limited, and if all the wonderful cuts are released into the movie, what will happen to the drama version. Wouldn't that be no surprise at all, and the look and feel would be greatly reduced.

Originally, our drama was also filmed in the form of dramas, and if we had to edit it into a movie, the gains outweighed the losses. ”

Hearing Han Li's words, everyone nodded.

At this time, Lu Yingzhen, the content expansion director of Cool Video, is also an old acquaintance of Han Li, and she said: "Mr. Han, as you said, this time you plan to sell the copyright of this drama through two channels: TV station and Internet."

But you know, if this drama has been broadcast on TV stations, the broadcast effect on online video sites will be greatly reduced.

Normally, we buy episodes that are broadcast by TV stations. The online rights of these episodes are relatively cheap, and the number of episodes is longer, which helps us increase the number of clicks and expand advertising revenue.

But this time, there are only twenty-four episodes of your drama, and it is jointly broadcast with TV stations, so how should the interests of our video website be protected? ”

"Again, there's our TV station. If it is broadcast at the same time, how can the interests of our TV station be protected? And Mr. Han, you should know that the synchronous update of the online video website also has an impact on the ratings of our TV station. "The one who spoke was the representative of Beijing Satellite TV, called Luo Hongsheng, who was responsible for the introduction of Beijing Satellite TV's TV series.

Luo Hongsheng's words naturally aroused the response of representatives of several other TV stations. On the one hand, there is indeed such a situation, and on the other hand, there is an obvious gap between the two camps, that is, online video websites and TV stations, so it is naturally divided into two very obvious camps.

In this regard, Han Li smiled at everyone and said, "Don't worry about this, we had such considerations at the beginning of the planning."

First of all, I can tell you that there are actually two versions of the episodes that are used for TV broadcasts and those that are broadcast on video sites.

Let me start with the TV version, which is indeed twenty-four episodes, each of which is forty-two minutes long. After deducting the opening and ending credits, the feature film is a total of 38 minutes.

Since the broadcast version of the TV station is different from the Internet, there are many restrictions. So we've made a lot of changes to these restrictions and requirements, cutting and adding some content to make it compliant with the relevant playback regulations.

Even for this, the beginning and end of our story have been modified and some reasonable things have been added to make it more in line with the regulations. So you can rest assured that there will be no problems with the version we have provided to you.

As for the online version, it's not the same as the TV station. Because the restrictions are a little more relaxed, we're definitely going to keep some great content. And as close as possible to the original work, no relevant modifications are required. Therefore, the story plot is more compact, which is more in line with the characteristics of online dramas.

And the single episode of the online drama often doesn't need to be so restrictive, so we can provide two editing versions for you to choose from. One is the same as the TV station, which is also forty minutes plus twenty-four episodes. The other is longer, with 36 episodes, but the duration of each episode has been reduced from 40 minutes to 35 minutes. ”

"Mr. Han, what's the difference between these two clip versions?" Lu Yingzhen asked at him.

"It's always different, and so is the content and the pacing. Of course, the twenty-four episodes are more urgent, and the thirty-six episodes are relatively rich.

So how exactly it depends on your choice, and who wins the bid can have a specific consultation with us when the time comes. ”

"Mr. Han, can't you add content to the TV version, so that the number of episodes will increase." Chen Xianglan, the representative of Xiangshi, immediately asked him.

Sure enough, Chen Xianglan's words caused a response from representatives of these TV stations. Everyone knows that extending the number of episodes is beneficial to their TV station, so they are naturally more curious about the version of the content that Han Li provided to the video website.

Hearing this, Han Li shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, we provided it to you according to this standard. As for whether or not you will re-edit after you buy the rights, we don't have any opinion on that.

But if you're going to re-edit, I want you to be cautious, because our version of the cut is full of the overall plot rhythm. Also, for viewers, if the re-editing is too much, then they may choose another version. ”

If it is simply to sell one version, Han Li will naturally not allow TV stations or video websites to re-edit the film. Because this will disrupt the plot rhythm of the whole film and cause disgust among the audience.

But now, they are launching two versions. Even if the TV station re-edits, then there is another version on the Internet, and the audience has the right to choose.

In other words, if you don't like the TV station editing, you can also watch the online version. The reason why I say this can be regarded as a warning to these TV stations and video websites.

Han Li knows that in the past few years, in order to extend the number of episodes as much as possible, the TV station has re-edited these TV series that are more popular.

There are even TV series that are 45 minutes long in an episode, and the opening and ending credits account for eight minutes. The review of the superiors plus the preview of the next episode takes up another ten minutes, or even more. makes the real content of an episode only about 20 minutes, which can be said to have caused the majority of viewers to complain all the time.

And the TV stations that did such a thing were among the TV stations that came, so Han Li couldn't help but remind him.
