Chapter 16 Cooperation Reached
"Why?"
"Why do you think your drama can be popular?"
"Do you think Station G can only rely on your drama to make the film and television sector?"
Chi Jiang heard Xu Ji's arrogant words, but he didn't get angry, but just felt a little funny.
In fact, this time Station G not only found Xu Ji, a rookie director.
But the few people I have met before are very humble, and they also agreed to sign a contract with Station G very simply.
Xu Ji didn't feel angry at all, or said something very desperate to prove himself.
Instead, he replied:
"I believe that Mr. Chi has a human eye."
"How to work together smoothly, I will prove it."
Chi Jiang shook his head.
"I'm confident that I can see people through my eyes."
"But I'm not arrogant."
"I don't think you are qualified to get the investment of our G station in a cooperative way."
Xu Ji didn't panic, but asked: "Mr. Chi, can you tell me what kind of drama Station G plans to invest in next?" ”
Chi Jiang hesitated, this is not a trade secret, so he replied:
"Small cost, the number of broadcasts during the launch period can at least exceed 100 million."
After listening to Chi Jiang's words, Xu Ji nodded.
"Is it big with a small one?"
"Then I think Chi is probably more than just planning to sign me, right?"
Chi Jiang also nodded simply at this time.
"In addition to you, we also contacted several directors who did not have a company at the front of the Youth Micro Film Competition."
"There are also some young directors who are a little famous."
Xu Ji thought for a while, and then said: "Small cost, high playback." ”
"Youth-themed online dramas are the most suitable choice."
"If it goes well, I can give you the script next week."
Chi Jiang was a little speechless, and said, "I haven't even agreed to cooperate with you." ”
Xu Ji continued: "It's okay, Mr. Chi, how about you listen to me first and then make a decision on the way of cooperation?" ”
Chi Jiang motioned for Xu Ji to continue.
"I'm working with Station G."
"With an investment of 10 million, the shooting will be completed within three months."
"After the online drama is launched, if the broadcast volume of station G cannot exceed 300 million within a month during the broadcast, I will not take a penny."
"If the number of broadcasts exceeds 300 million, I will pay 2 million for the director."
"If I break a billion, I want five million, and if I break two billion, I want ten million."
After Xu Ji's words were finished, Chi Jiang was stunned.
"What do you mean by not taking a penny?"
Xu Ji replied directly: "10 million is all the production cost of the online drama, and I will shoot it for you for free." ”
Chi Jiang's eyes were a little strange when he looked at Xu Ji at this time.
Is this young rookie director really so confident in himself?
If that's the case, it won't have much impact on them.
He is not worried that Xu Ji will shoot blindly, mainly because if Xu Ji wants to mix in this circle in the future, he will not be able to mess around, and reading the script is a key part.
As for the investment cost of greedy ink, there is no need to worry, after all, there will definitely be a special producer to supervise at Station G.
The most important thing is that in this era of casual investment in online dramas, it is hundreds of millions.
An investment of 10 million is really nothing.
Station G can afford it completely, and it can afford to take this risk.
If it can really break 300 million broadcasts at that time, then the director fee of 2 million for Xu Ji is actually nothing.
The benefits of dedicated membership growth go far beyond that.
As for what Xu Ji said later, if it broke one billion broadcasts and two billion broadcasts, Chi Jiang didn't care in the slightest, it was almost impossible in his opinion.
I have to admit that Chi Jiang, who was not interested in Xu Ji's cooperation, was moved at this time.
If that happens, he'd even like other projects to do the same.
After all, it also requires a lot of money to sign a director.
And the signing fee he planned to give Xu Ji before, plus the director's fee for the first online drama, is also more than two million.
Of course, the premise is that Xu Ji has to pass his previous assessment.
The script also has to meet the corresponding requirements.
You must know that the money after signing the contract, even if Xu Ji smashes it, it is a steady earning.
"No other requirements?"
Chi Jiang still asked with some doubts.
Xu Ji shook his head.
"Nope."
"Of course, if there is a place where you need to use the resources of Station G during shooting, please support Mr. Chi at that time."
Chi Jiang didn't think what Xu Ji said was a requirement, after all, this is Station G's own project, and there is no need for Xu Ji to say anything to cooperate with the resources to shoot something, they will do the same.
"Aren't you afraid that the number of views will not reach 300 million by then, and you will work hard in vain?"
Xu Ji did not answer, but continued:
"By the way, Station G can't stuff actors into my crew."
"Even if it's a recommendation, it has to meet my requirements."
Chi Jiang did not hesitate at all.
"You can rest assured of this, everything is based on the quality of the drama."
Xu Ji nodded, indicating that he had no other problems, and motioned for Chi Jiang to decide for himself.
Chi Jiang pretended to think about it for a while, and then replied:
"Since Director Xu has such courage at a young age, why not let me gamble with you."
"Happy cooperation, Director Xu."
Xu Ji stretched out his hand, and then said with a smile: "Happy cooperation." ”
"If it's a script, I'll give it to you next week."
"But I said it in advance, I can give my opinion, and it's up to me to change it."
Xu Ji said.
Chi Jiang was used to Xu Ji's self-confidence.
The two only made a verbal agreement.
If the script given by Xu Ji was really rubbish, the kind of thing with no commercial value, Chi Jiang would naturally not be stupid enough to throw this money out and let it go down the drain.
"Director Xu rest assured, we will give you the greatest freedom to create."
......
Xu Ji came out of the building of Station G and breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, he didn't know the bottom of his heart before.
After all, although an investment of 10 million is not much for a large company like Station G, it is not the kind of small money that will not be distressed if you throw it at will.
He was so confident and even a little arrogant just now, just to make Chi Jiang confident and willing to gamble on such a game that basically he couldn't lose.
Speaking of which, Xu Ji is actually a little distressed.
If he invests in filming it himself, the drama he plans to sell to any platform will definitely make more than just a little money.
Now I can get a maximum of 10 million.
Although the director's fee of 10 million is already very high.
But in his current situation, he has no money and no name, so that's all.
As for the sharing of membership fees or something, Xu Ji directly mentioned that he was too lazy to mention.
The amount is too large, and there is not much chance that Station G will be able to agree.
And I have to go to the skin for a long time, and now for Xu Ji, time is very important.
Hurry up and earn the first pot of gold, and make a hit web series to prove that it is the most important thing.
All in all, this cooperation with Station G can be regarded as achieving the goal that Xu Ji expected before he first came.
