Chi Jiang was originally very excited to receive the news from You Man, thinking that Xu Ji was planning to let them pass, and then began to talk about the exclusive broadcast rights of the sequel to Fairy Sword.

Last time, he missed it because he was sick.

At that time, when I was lying in a coma on the hospital bed and dreaming, it was the picture that the exclusive broadcast rights of the sequel to Sword and Fairy were robbed by other platforms.

However, what made Chi Jiang a little disappointed was that this time it didn't seem to be a sequel to Fairy Sword.

And Xu Ji is not a director this time, just a screenwriter.

I felt very disappointed, but after hearing that the leading actors were Ji Yiyang and She Yue, I still agreed to go.

In fact, Chi Jiang didn't dare to bet, after all, the director was not Xu Ji.

In the end, he still trusts Xu Ji, if the director is changed, Chi Jiang will be more hesitant to buy this new drama produced by Tongji Entertainment.

If Xu Ji was a director, no matter what he filmed, he would definitely buy it directly without even reading the script.

This time, Chi Jiang will only decide after watching the finished film.

......

At the same time, Kiwi Fruit's Congzhu also set off for Rongcheng.

"From the general point of view, didn't Tongji Entertainment say that the director of this time is not Xu Ji?"

"So we'll go too?"

Congzhu glanced at his assistant, and then spoke:

"I don't make the same mistake twice."

"Even if it's not director Xu Ji, but the starring roles are Ji Yiyang and She Yue, it's worth my trip."

"What's more, I asked, this drama is a script written by Xu Ji."

......

The assistant nodded as if he didn't understand.

She didn't understand that Congzhu had a lot of opinions about Xu Ji before.

And quite unfavorable.

But now the attitude has changed a lot.

You can hear it from what I just said.

The biggest reason for attracting Congzong is not because of the popular Ji Yiyang and She Yue, but because of the script written by Xu Ji.

......

At Hangcheng Airport, Wen Hao, vice president of Penguin Video, who had just gotten on the plane, was a little apprehensive.

Last time, he took the copyright budget of 10 million per episode to fight for the exclusive broadcast rights of the sequel to Fairy Sword, and he lost to several other companies from the starting point, which was quite aggrieved

Although Xu Ji has not planned to sell the exclusive broadcast rights of the sequel to Fairy Sword, Wen Hao can hear from the words of his immediate boss Xu Sheng that it is basically hopeless.

And this time, after receiving the invitation, Wen Hao immediately applied for a budget from Xu Sheng, and finally got a copyright fee budget of 80 million based on reason.

If it is a drama directed by Xu Ji, Wen Hao feels that he basically has no chance of winning.

But this time, the director is not Xu Ji, and the investment in this drama does not seem to be large.

There should still be hope.

He only hopes that the other companies are not so interested in the show now.

Although I don't know the specific quality of the whole drama yet, for him, the significance of winning this drama is not trivial.

If the first cooperation between Tongji Entertainment and Penguin Video will be successfully reached.

The relationship between the two sides will also return to normal, and there will be an opportunity to continue to cooperate in the future.

If it weren't for Director Xu Ji, maybe only Chi Jiang from Station G would be the only one who would go at Station G.

And I don't think I'm going to spend a lot of money.

Wen Hao analyzed in his heart.

But just when his plane landed and left Rongcheng Airport, he suddenly saw a familiar figure.

......

The corners of Wen Hao's mouth twitched, but he still squeezed out an expression and stepped forward to greet the other party.

"Mr. Su, why are you here?"

Su Liangcai was stunned when he saw Wen Hao, but after hearing the other party's question, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

How am I here you don't know?

He replied angrily, "I'm here for a tour." ”

Of course, Wen Hao didn't believe in this kind of travel.

But he still put on a casual attitude.

"I thought you potato videos weren't coming."

"I heard that Tongji Entertainment's new drama this time is not directed by Xu Ji."

"I also wanted to come and have a look."

"The main thing you know, we have some misunderstandings with Director Xu, although we may not cooperate, but it is good to take this opportunity to contact and contact feelings."

Hearing Wen Hao's words, Su Liangcai scolded in his heart: "Just take a look, I believe you are a ghost!" ”

But on the surface, there was a smile.

"Mr. Wen, what you said is so right!"

"I also think that if it's a sequel to Fairy Sword, or a new drama directed by Xu Ji, then I think I have to fight for it no matter what."

"But this time, the director of Tongji Entertainment's new drama is not Xu Ji, so there is no need for this!"

Su Liangcai spread his hands.

Then he whispered: "Actually, it's because I want to cooperate with Tongji Entertainment in the future, otherwise, if you say that a new drama made by a director whose name has never been heard of, it is still a small investment drama, where is it worth my personal trip." ”

After Wen Hao heard Su Liangcai's words, he felt a lot more relieved.

It seems that there shouldn't be too much pressure on the potato video here.

At best, it's a symbolic offer.

"Alas, Mr. Wen and Mr. Su, why are you here?"

At this moment, a voice suddenly came.

After getting off the plane from Bamboo, I didn't expect to see two familiar figures just out of the airport.

The corners of Su Liangcai's and Wen Hao's mouths twitched.

The kiwi man also came, which was not a good thing for his two families.

"It's always for the new drama of Tongji Entertainment?"

Wen Hao asked.

Congzhu replied steadily: "Just take a look." ”

After saying this, Wen Hao and Su Liang glanced at each other.

Su Liangcai answered: "Isn't this a coincidence? ”

"Mr. Wen and I also came to take a look."

"That's... Together? ”

The three of them got into the same taxi together, let their assistants sit in another car together, and then drove directly in the direction of Xu Ji Company.

.....

When the three of them arrived, they found that someone had arrived long before them.

Chi Jiang was sitting on the sofa in the Tongji entertainment room, drinking tea comfortably.

"Mr. Chi is quite fast."

Su Liangcai spoke.

He remembered that he was fighting with the other party for the copyright of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy I", but in the end, because he didn't dare to take risks, he missed this hit drama.

Thinking about it now, Su Liangcai still regrets it very much.

"I've just arrived."

Chi Jiang replied surgingly.

But in fact, as soon as he got out of the airport just now, he saw Su Liangcai and Wen Hao.

However, Chi Jiang didn't come forward to say hello, but directly took the assistant to take a taxi over.

What I didn't expect was that Xu Ji hadn't come over for the time being, so he could only wait here in advance.

"Mr. Chi, looking at it like this, you must be bound to win this drama this time, right?"

After Wen Hao sat down, he opened his mouth to say tentatively.

Chi Jiang shook his head.

"Mr. Wen thinks too much."

"The director of this drama this time is not Director Xu, in fact, I have no interest."

Hearing this, Congzhu raised his eyebrows.

"Then why did Mr. Chi come all the way over?"

Chi Jiang gently blew the tea in the quilt, and then took a sip comfortably.

"Although the director is not Director Xu, after all, it is a new drama of Tongji Entertainment, and this face must be given after all."

......

Wen Hao heard the words of several people, and his heart was overjoyed.

It seems that several other companies are not particularly interested in Xu Ji's new drama this time!

This is a great opportunity for yourself!

must use this drama to connect with Xu Ji's company.

It will be much easier to cooperate in the future.

At this moment, Xu Ji finally came over with Pang Er, the director of "The Beginning".

Xu Ji was not late this time.

The main thing is that these four people came over early.

After a brief greeting to the four of them, Xu Ji explained:

"This is the director of our company's new drama "The Beginning".

Poel was actually somehow a little weak-hearted, and he didn't want to come.

But he was dragged over by Xu Ji.

After all, he is the director this time, and it really doesn't make sense for him not to come.

Before the others could react, they heard Chi Jiang speak first:

"I didn't expect Director Pang to be as young as our Director Xu, he is really young and promising!"

"The users of our G station are all young people, and Director Pang's works will definitely be very popular with us."

Wen Hao, Congzhu, and Su Liangcai heard Chi Jiang's words at this time, and they all secretly scolded in their hearts for being shameless!

Chi Jiang, the boss of the film and television department of Station G, actually began to shoot sycophants.

Especially Wen Hao, when he heard the other party's words at this time, he was a little speechless.

Just now, Chi Jiang Ming kept saying that we at Station G were not interested in this drama at all.

As a result, this trace came, and his face immediately changed.

After that, I heard Congzhu and Su Liangcai both speak.

Congzhu: "Mr. Chi is right, in fact, there are many young people among our kiwi users, and I am also looking forward to Director Pang's debut novel." ”

Su Liangcai: "When I saw Director Pang Er, I had a kind of seeing Director Xu when he was filming Xianjian, although it was the first work, it would definitely be able to make a splash, by the way, in fact, there are many young users of our potato video!" ”

Wen Hao was skeptical, and he also felt that these three people should not be completely uninterested in this drama.

But I didn't expect them to change their faces so quickly.

At that time, in the taxi to the airport, everyone was not optimistic about Xu Ji's new director, who had never heard the name of Xu Ji this time.

Why did I get here, and all of a sudden I started to shoot all kinds of sycophants.

The most important thing is that Wen Hao is actually not very good at saying this kind of scene.

If it will, it will not be at odds with Xu Sheng and Bi Feihong in Penguin Video.

But everyone said it, he was stunned and it was not good not to speak, Wen Hao held back for a long time, and could only speak:

"That's right! I think so too. ”

Then he added.

"We also have a lot of young users on Penguin Video."

......

Ponel was taken aback by the reaction of the men in front of him.

Originally, he thought that he was going through the motions.

Unexpectedly, after Xu Ji introduced him, the four website leaders were so enthusiastic.

"Okay, okay, if there's no problem, the four of you can try out the first few episodes of "The Beginning" first."

"It's also convenient for everyone to bid."

Hearing Xu Ji speak, he was also relieved at this time.

It's best to be able to get into the drama as soon as possible.

At the same time, Wen Hao is the same, he is not used to saying these scenes, and he hopes to be more direct.

Just take a look at what this new drama of Xu Ji Company is like.

However, the three of them suddenly changed their faces just now, and at this time, Wen Hao was a little worried that this time the competition might be more fierce than he thought.

For this small investment drama, the 80 million copyright fee budget obtained this time should be enough, right?

Wen Hao thought silently in his heart.

......

"Our "The Beginning" is a suspense-themed drama, the director is our director Pang Er, Director Xu is our producer and screenwriter, starring Ji Yiyang and She Yue, and the other actors are ......"

......

After officially starting to watch the drama, You Man was briefly introducing the four of them.

Hearing that it was a suspense drama, Wen Hao was a little surprised, in the past, Xu Ji filmed several dramas without suspense themes.

However, I also think it is understandable that compared with dramas with other themes, low-cost suspense dramas are more likely to appear high-quality products.

However, because the audience of the subject matter is smaller than that of some genres, the current suspense-themed dramas are not prone to popular dramas.

cooperated with Phoenix Entertainment before, and the suspense drama directed by Fan Wenquan pounced.

Although the score on Petal's website rose to about 7 points in the follow-up, the reputation at the beginning of the broadcast was very low, and the follow-up broadcast volume could not go up.

In the final analysis, the script of "The Real Murderer" is not very good, and Wen Hao also felt foggy after reading it at that time.

I don't know what the script of this suspense drama Xu Ji took out this time is.

However, since it is a suspense drama and the investment is not large, no one should pay too high a price.

This is also good news for Wen Hao.

From his debut to the present, the three dramas he has directed are all scripts written by Xu Ji himself, which is enough to prove that his level is still very high.

But even so, he is still a little worried that Xu Ji will overturn in the suspense theme.

The drama of this theme has high requirements for the script.

What's more, this time the director is still a newcomer who has never heard the name, as if he was the assistant director of Xu Ji's crew before.

At this time, there are also two people who are also worried about the kiwi fruit from the bamboo and the potato video.

The only one who didn't think about this was Chi Jiang.

He wondered, why would this new drama of Xu Ji Company be introduced by You Man?

She's a member of her own G station!

didn't pursue this too much, Chi Jiang felt that it was probably because Xu Ji asked You Man for help.

This is a good thing for Station G! This means that the relationship between Station G and Xu Ji's Tongji Entertainment is close, which is incomparable to several others!

I really didn't see the wrong person, and letting You Man stay in Rongcheng was the most correct choice.

Live up to his weight! Now Xu Ji obviously trusts You Man very much.

......

The lights in the screening room went dark, and then the suspense drama "The Beginning" that made several platform bosses curious began to play.

Half an hour passes, an hour passes, two hours pass.

Finally, the four of them have finished watching the first three episodes.

And the lights in the screening room came on.

A few people also realized that the three episodes they tried to watch had ended.

Wen Hao, who was sitting in his position and didn't move, was full of curiosity about the next plot development.

"Where the hell did the bomb come from?"

"Can the male and female protagonists escape the time loop?"

"How many more times will this bus be blown up?"

Immediately, Wen Hao quickly remembered his identity and purpose.

This suspense drama, which seems to be a bit special, is likely to be popular!

Because he only watched three episodes, Wen Hao felt that he was eager to know the next plot direction.

......

And while he was still thinking, he suddenly heard someone say:

"Director Xu, we bought this drama with kiwifruit."

"What do you think of eighty million?"

From Zhu's sudden opening, the other three people who were still immersed in the plot suddenly came back to their senses.

Chi Jiang also hurriedly spoke: "Our Station G can pay 90 million to buy exclusive broadcast rights." ”

Su Liangcai: "100 million!" ”

The three of them looked at each other a few times, and their eyes were full of sparks.

Then he looked at Wen Hao a little strangely.

Wen Hao was stunned for a moment.

This development is not right!

Aren't you all interested in this show?

How is one bidding higher than the other now!

This kiwi fruit directly opened his mouth and gave a high price of 80 million.

The other two didn't hesitate to increase the price.

These old foxes really can't believe a word they say!

Thinking about it carefully, Wen Hao felt that the price was worth it.

He just wanted to continue shouting, but suddenly stopped.

Only then did I realize that the copyright budget I got was only 80 million.

Not enough money!

Wen Hao really wants to die.

I knew that I should have given Xu Sheng more orders at the beginning.

Who knew these people would be so mad?

Judging from the first three episodes so far, the investment is definitely not more than 30 million.

Of course, this may not include the director, actors, and editors of this drama, all of whom are Xu Ji's own people, and the cost saved in these aspects

But if you include all of these, it's actually a maximum of 50 million.

What did the man who quoted 80 million think about it?

......

Finding that the three of them were staring at him, Wen Hao subconsciously avoided his eyes and did not speak.

Not enough money, talk about!

And Chi Jiang is very strange, Penguin Video should have been his biggest opponent this time.

After all, the other party has a lot of money, and the budget he took out this time can't compare to the original Xianjian Yi.

And you have to consider keeping some funds to buy the copyright of Xianjian III when the time comes.

But why didn't Wen Hao make an offer?

Are you going to wait for the final sudden shouting of a high price and the final word?

Chi Jiang glanced at the other party vigilantly.

Then he said:

"120 million."

Such a price is actually a very high premium, and in the previous time, Chi Jiang would definitely not be able to take out so much copyright fees.

But now it's different, since "The Best of Us" and "Sword and Fairy" became popular, the copyright fee allocation of his film and television department has directly doubled.

Now Chi Jiang is more confident when he talks about it.

Soon, with the quotations of the three of you, the price of the exclusive broadcast right has risen to 200 million in a blink of an eye.

The three of them also began to hesitate, although this drama has great potential for a hit drama.

The plot is very attractive, and there are two very popular Ji Yiyang and She Yue as the male and female protagonists.

From this point of view, the price of about 200 million is indeed not expensive.

But if you go any further, for a few, it's really a bit over budget.

It can only be said that at this time, it depends on who dares to bet, and bet on how popular and how much income this drama can bring after it is broadcast.

Congzhu doesn't have to think about it at this time, the most daring bet is definitely Chi Jiang!

This guy now has complete unconditional trust in Xu Ji, which can be seen from the exclusive broadcast rights of the gift drama "Mountains and Seas" before.

But Congzhu didn't want to give up so easily.

She suddenly spoke:

"Let's stop!"

"Director Xu, can I ask a question?"

"Is your company's drama only going to be sold to one platform and broadcast in the form of an exclusive broadcast?"

Hearing Congzhu's words, Xu Ji shook his head.

Then he replied, "Not really." ”

After Takemi denied it, he immediately continued:

"In that case, if we continue to fight, it will not be good."

"It's better to do this, this drama can be broadcast online at the same time in several of our houses."

"In this way, the risk will be lower for everyone."

Hearing Congzhu's words, Su Liangcai and Chi Jiang both said in unison: "No! ”

Chi Jiang stared at Congzhu and said: "What you said is good, the number of paid members of your kiwifruit is several times that of us, and we simulcast together, haven't you robbed up the broadcast volume and membership increase of Station G?" ”

The number of paid members of Tudou Video is not as good as that of Kiwi and Penguin Video, and they also suffer a loss.

So Su Liangcai didn't agree with this suggestion very much.

"Since it's a simulcast, our benefits are even greater."

"Then we'll take a bigger risk."

"Penguin Video and our kiwifruit side each cost 90 million, potato video cost 70 million, and Station G side cost 50 million."

"How?"

Chi Jiang still shook his head at this time.

His offer for the exclusive broadcasting rights just now is the highest, and although the risk is reduced according to Congzhu's proposal, the income is also reduced.

It wasn't what he wanted to see.

Chi Jiang would rather take a high risk to gamble.

"Director Xu, I think you should want the copyright to be sold at a high price, right?"

"If you simulcast, your company's earnings will be higher."

"With a copyright fee of 300 million, I think none of the people present are willing to pay such a high price."

"Of course, if Mr. Chi insists on disagreeing, he can actually withdraw."

"It's okay for the remaining three of us to fill that gap."

"For your company, the benefits are increased. At the same time, we also reduce risk. ”

Xu Jidu also agreed, and Chi Jiang knew that there was no way to do it this time.

So he nodded.

"Then let's do as the president said."

At this moment, Wen Hao, who had not spoken, suddenly said: "I'm sorry, we Penguin Video are not involved this time." ”

Wen Hao had words of suffering in his heart.

Even if it was a few together, the budget he applied for was still not enough.

What's more, the 80 million is an application for the purchase of exclusive broadcasting rights.

Congzhu was stunned for a moment, and the other two also looked at Wen Hao.

After a while, Congzhu spoke:

"Then we have to redistribute the copyright fees of several of us."

"We have 140 million kiwifruit, 90 million potato videos, and 70 million at Station G."

......

The whole process was confused.

Ever since Take's mouth opened to shout, he had barely spoken.

The whole process was discussed by these people themselves, and the key is that the price completely exceeded Xu Ji's expectations.

He originally thought that it would be almost enough to sell for more than 100 million.

But I didn't expect it to nearly triple this time.

Seeing that the three of them have been set, and the price of the copyright fee has exceeded expectations, Xu Ji naturally has no opinion.

The final result, for several people, is acceptable.

Of course, the only uncomfortable thing is Wen Hao of Penguin Video.

Thinking of the picture of himself talking and laughing with Congzhu and Su Liangcai in the taxi when he came at that time, Wen Hao couldn't accept it.

This time, the four of them came together, but he was the only one who failed to get the copyright.

The key is not because he really has no money, but because his boss Xu Sheng doesn't give him power!

The more Wen Hao thought about it, the more angry he became, and he didn't even agree to Xu Ji's dinner in the evening, so he hurriedly said goodbye and left.

......
