Chapter 639 "Do You Know" Watching Meeting, Sticky Little Princess
"Dad, I want Dad to play with me......"
After breakfast, Fang Xing was about to go to the company, and today he was going to hold a viewing party of "Do You Know", and there were already three TV station viewing groups waiting in the company's headquarters building.
It's just that as soon as Fang Xing went out, he was hugged by Qianqian's legs, sticking and refusing to let go.
"I have a job today, and I play with my grandmother and mother at home, can I?" Fang Xingdu had already opened the car door, and he couldn't sit on it.
"No, I'm going to play with Daddy." Shallow pouting and hugging tighter.
"You're three years old, you're a big baby, and you're going to learn to play alone." Fang Xing began to coax with a serious face.
"Hmm......" shallow twisted around unwillingly, and flattened his mouth to cry.
Lu Xiang'er came out and said, "Or you can take her with you." ”
It's a good idea, it's not a particularly formal event anyway.
"Do you want to go to work with your father?" Fang Xing asked.
Shallow seemed to have discovered a new world, and he hadn't thought of this option before, so he nodded vigorously: "Mmmmmmmmmmmm......mm
As soon as the grandmother heard that her son was going to take her granddaughter to the company, she hurriedly followed, carrying a large bag and a small bag, and carefully advised: "Really take it?" The change of clothes was brought with me, as well as a kettle, and toys. If you're eating out, don't order anything heavy, or come back and eat it. ”
"It's not that pampered, and I'm going to go to school in the future, right?" Fang Xing sat in the car and hugged the little princess to his lap.
Grandma Qianqian hurriedly told the driver: "Xiao Chen, this car is not good, change to another one, change to the one with a safety seat." Be steady when you can drive, and be sure to pay attention to safety. ”
Fang Xing's usual car to work is not equipped with a child safety seat, and it is troublesome to install it temporarily.
So just change to that SUV with a car seat.
"Okay, Auntie, don't worry." The driver nodded yes and went to the garage to drive the SUV.
"Xiao Xiang, you follow, look at the point. Don't let shallow run alone, especially not near the road. Grandma Qianqian continued to advise, anyway, she didn't feel at ease.
"Okay, don't worry, Mom." Lu Xianger followed into the car, and then began to tie the seat belt of the safety seat to the shallow.
……
Half an hour later.
Fang Xing took his shallow little hand and walked into the headquarters building of Ark Culture.
When all the employees of the company saw it, they all squatted down and greeted the little girl warmly.
"Oops! Qianqian accompanied his father to work in the company, so well-behaved and cute. ”
Qianqian was a little shy, hiding behind Fang Xing, poking out half of his little head, looking at these strange uncles and aunts.
Qiao Yinghong came out of the conference room and greeted her: "Ah, the little princess has finally come to meet the people." ”
Because Qiao Yinghong occasionally went to Fang Xing's house to report to work, and also arranged Fang Xing's itinerary, she knew her slightly.
When I saw acquaintances, I relaxed a lot, but I forgot how to call someone.
Lu Xiang'er reminded on the side: "This is Aunt Hong, call someone." ”
Shallow smiled shyly, called "Aunt Hong", and buried her head in Fang Xing's back.
After saying hello to the little princess, Qiao Yinghong stood up and said, "Donghai Satellite TV, Xiangjiang Satellite TV, and Jiangnan Satellite TV's viewing groups are already waiting in the screening room, if there is no problem, you can start watching the film." ”
"Let's get started." Fang Xing has always paid attention to the post-production progress of "Do You Know", and is very satisfied with the edited film, so he is very confident in watching the film.
The viewing will begin.
Three screening rooms, and "Do You Know" began to be shown at the same time.
Fang Xing took his shallow little hand and went over to greet the heads of the three satellite TV viewing groups.
Jiangnan Satellite TV sent Cao Sanchun, the director of film selection, and after saying hello, he asked them to continue watching the film, and then continued to the next screening room.
Donghai Satellite TV is very concerned about the new drama of Ark Culture, and Deputy Director Wei Shurong has always been responsible for the purchase of Ark Culture TV dramas.
So this time was no exception, Wei Shurong personally led the team.
"Weitai is here in person." Fang Xing saw Wei Shurong and waved his hand to say hello.
Wei Shurong was surprised for a moment when he saw Fang Xing holding a little girl, and then immediately greeted: "Brother Fang is really a model father." ”
"It's very clingy today, so I had to bring it here." Fang Xing spread his hands and showed a helpless expression, but the helpless smile on his face was full of happiness no matter how he looked at it.
"At this age, you really should be with you more." Wei Shurong is a person from the past and understands this mood.
In fact, when he was young, he didn't accompany him much, and when his children were older, he didn't need him anymore, and now it was his turn to look forward to his children coming home every day.
"Yes, I also want to grow up with her day by day, and I'm worried that I will grow up in the blink of an eye." Fang Xing's current mood is to hope that his daughter will grow up well-behaved, but he is afraid that she will grow up.
"Sit down and talk?" When Wei Shurong wanted to pull Fang Xing to sit down and talk about buying films.
Fang Xing pointed to the screening room behind him and said, "There is still one that didn't say hello, and came over after saying hello." ”
Wei Shurong hurriedly answered: "What you said, don't be dragged by Xiangjiang Satellite TV." ”
"No, come by sure." Fang Xing hurriedly agreed.
……
When I arrived at the last screening room, Xiangjiang Satellite TV sent a film selection director to lead the team.
Fang Xing is very familiar with Xiangjiang Satellite TV, but Jiang Minghe didn't come, so after a brief chat, he asked the director of the crew to chat with Xiangjiang Satellite TV, and he walked back to the second screening room.
"Shallow, Dad is going to work. We went upstairs to play, and when we had lunch, Dad and we had dinner together. Lu Xianger took Qianqian to take a stroll in the Ark Cultural Headquarters Park.
in the screening room.
Wei Shurong pulled Fang Xing to the last row and began to talk about the premiere of "Do You Know".
"Brother Fang, how are you going to broadcast it this time?"
He has watched two episodes just now, and he is very satisfied with the overall texture of this drama, as long as there are no major problems with the follow-up plot, this drama is worth buying.
He also knew in advance that there was an important meeting on Xiangjiang Satellite TV, and Jiang Minghe couldn't come in person today, and after two days, Jiang Minghe would come over in person, and the competition would be fierce if he wanted to talk about it.
"It should be broadcast simultaneously on normal satellite TV and online platforms." Fang Xing had already thought about this issue.
Nowadays, there are many kinds of TV drama broadcast modes.
It can be broadcast simultaneously on satellite TV and online platforms, or it can be online first.
Due to the rapid development of the video platform now, in the TV drama industry, the video platform has a greater right to speak, after all, the video platform now gives more money.
Of course, it also depends on the characteristics of the episode.
Some dramas are specially filmed for online video platforms, and the plot tends to be relaxed and refreshing.
Some dramas are more traditional.
For example, "Mountains and Seas", this drama is very realistic, and the plot will make the audience feel a little heavy, in comparison, this type of drama is more suitable for broadcast on TV stations.
Of course, the online broadcast performance of "Mountains and Seas" is not bad, the reason is that this drama is of high quality and has a good reputation, but strictly speaking, this type of drama is indeed more suitable for TV broadcasting.
"Do You Know" is suitable for both TV and online platforms.
Moreover, this drama has a total of 73 episodes, and the premiere rights can sell at least hundreds of millions.
Therefore, the best broadcast mode is indeed simultaneous broadcast on satellite TV and online platforms.
Actually, Wei Shurong probably guessed it.
The 73-episode feature film, unless it can't pass the review, it will definitely be on the stars.
Wei Shurong leaned closer and asked, "Brother Fang, give my brother a thorough explanation, the premiere rights are 3 million per episode, has it met psychological expectations?" ”
"Know" has a total of 73 episodes, and the first episode is 3 million words.
The total price is 219 million, which is exactly the total investment of "Know".
When "Do You Know" first started to set up the project, Fang Xing planned to invest 200 million.
However, at the beginning, I also considered that when I made such a big feature film, it was possible to spend the budget in advance in the later stage, so Fang Xing said at the beginning that an additional 50 million investment could be made in the later stage.
Later, "Know" added an additional 20 million investment, but did not add 50 million.
Therefore, the total investment of "Know" is 220 million.
As soon as Wei Shurong opened his mouth, the price he asked was 3 million per episode, which was actually calculated according to the total amount of investment.
This calculation is reasonable.
The price of the premiere of satellite TV, according to the total investment of the TV series, is actually a very high price.
After all, a drama, in addition to the premiere rights, can also be sold for two rounds of follow-up, or even three or four rounds.
Coupled with the revenue of the video platform, if the first broadcast price has already recovered the investment, the revenue of other channels is all profits.
In this way, the show can earn twice as much investment.
Such a high rate of return on investment is already very impressive.
Merely.
This is just an opening price, and in the end, the premiere rights of "Do You Know", what price will it be sold at, it depends on whether other satellite TV wants it.
Fang Xing said calmly: "I don't know the specific price." ”
Wei Shurong has dealt with Fang Xing so many times, and he knows Fang Xing's style of doing things too well.
The same is true for previous dramas, Fang Xing will have a very high reserve price from the beginning, if the price offered by the TV station does not reach Fang Xing's psychological price, he would rather not sell it.
That's what Dark Glory was like in the beginning.
Due to the sensitive subject matter of this drama, major TV stations have no confidence, so they are unwilling to offer high prices.
As a result, Fang Xing directly sold the premiere rights of satellite TV, directly launched the video platform, and then distributed it overseas, and as a result, it was slaughtered on the overseas streaming platform.
Therefore, as soon as Wei Shurong heard Fang Xing's words, he had already guessed the price of 3 million episodes, which should not meet Fang Xing's psychological expectations.
"It seems that Brother Fang is going to make a sky-high drama this time." Wei Shurong said with emotion.
In fact, Wei Shurong privately inquired about the reserve price and only opened 3 million episodes, because this drama was not filmed by Fang Xing himself as the director.
If Fang Xing is the director, or even the leading actor, the price of this drama can rise by another three percent.
However, Wei Shurong now looks at Fang Xing's expression, and the price of this drama must not be low.
Wei Shurong thought about it for a while and said, "Brother Fang, there are too many episodes in this series, and if the price of a single episode rises, the total price will be too high." ”
Two years ago, when the price of a single episode was the highest, the drama filmed by Fang Xing had been topped to 5 million per episode.
If "Do You Know" is really topped to 5 million per episode, the total price of this drama will exceed 360 million.
The price is a bit intimidating.
If it is at this price, in case the ratings of this drama are not good, then the leaders of the TV station who bought this drama will definitely have to eat melons.
In fact, if this drama was filmed by Fang Xing, 5 million episodes, some TV stations would dare to buy it with their eyes closed.
It's a pity that Fang Xing just hung up the name of the producer.
The title of producer has a lot of power in the crew, but it doesn't necessarily matter how many scenes he participates in, it can be more or less, and it may even be just a name, and I don't even know who the starring role of this drama is.
Therefore, the position of producer in the mainland is very empty.
Fang Xing was not in a hurry: "If Wei TV thinks this drama is okay, I suggest that our station premiere it, and the ratings must be guaranteed." Of course, if the leaders of the station feel that the price is too high, it is okay to simulcast multiple satellite TVs.
"The crew has worked hard for so long, everyone is waiting for the performance bonus at the end of the year, and I am definitely happier to earn a little more."
In business, you can't sell it at a reduced price just because you have a good relationship.
Of course, Fang Xing and Wei Shurong have indeed known each other for many years, so they can reveal some additional information to him.
Wei Shurong's eyes lit up when he heard Fang Xing's words.
He knows Fang Xing very well, and he won't talk nonsense about things that he is not sure of.
Besides, Fang Xing just won the summer box office championship on the big screen, if you want to make money, there is a way, there is no need to trick him into buying this drama.
Wei Shurong thought about it for a while and asked: "Brother Fang didn't take charge in person, and I don't know the bottom of my heart, brother." It's not that I don't have confidence in Director Zhang, but he hasn't filmed a star drama before. ”
Fang Xing smiled and replied, "Let me tell you that." I participated in the whole process of this drama, and I also watched the finished film, which achieved my expected results. It's not interesting to blow it now, but I can guarantee that the ratings will not be bad. ”
After listening to this, Wei Shurong also knew it in his heart.
It's just that the big projects related to two or three billion yuan are not something he can decide alone.
"Well, after I go back, I'll have a meeting with the leaders of Taili to study and study." Wei Shurong has already made up his mind, he will watch the finished film of "Do You Know" quickly today, and then immediately hold a meeting to study the purchase plan when he goes back.
If you can win this drama before other satellite TV reacts, it will be considered a success.
……
After Fang Xing left, Wei Shurong immediately asked the viewing group to divide into five groups and watch the drama quickly.
You don't need to be careful to watch the film, as long as you determine the quality of the whole show, it will not fall off a cliff, and then make a judgment based on the quality of the previous episodes, you can roughly see the potential of the show.
Therefore, Wei Shurong's speed is very fast, and he plans to let the film group finish watching "Do You Know" in one day, and then give a preliminary conclusion, and go back to a meeting the next day to study the film purchase plan.
Meanwhile.
The director of film selection of Xiangjiang Satellite TV watched six episodes in the morning, and lunch was eaten in the screening hall.
After seeing the heroine grow up, he already saw that this drama has great potential, so he hurriedly called Deputy Director Jiang Minghe that night.
"Director, this drama of Ark Culture may be popular, and the quality is very high. Not only the protagonist is brilliant, but the supporting roles are also brilliant, not only the protagonist can be popular in this drama, but also the supporting roles can be popular, you have to prepare quickly, I heard that Donghai Satellite TV watched all 73 episodes in one day. ”
Jiang Minghe, who was far away in Xiangjiang, suddenly became nervous when he heard the words of the director of film selection.
Even the dramas with supporting roles can be popular, without exception, they are all big hits.
And it has to be red through half the sky.
Jiang Minghe and Wei Shurong are already old opponents, and he knows his opponent's style of doing things too well, so he immediately felt threatened, and hurriedly said:
"You drag Fang Xing for me, I'll fly over tomorrow, and before I arrive, I must not let Wei Shurong see Fang Xing."
