Chapter 353: Fortune with a muffled voice [6K Grand Chapter]

It doesn't matter if it's a good karma or a bad karma. Today, how the development between Liu Yifei and Gao Fei is no longer something that Liu Xiaoli can control.

Therefore, after the banquet, Gao Fei did not suffer Liu Xiaoli's eyes. It's just that in the face of his whining words, even Han Li is indifferent.

Even in Han Li's opinion, Liu Xiaoli is restrained enough, if any little bastard dares to do this to her daughter in the future, Han Li will definitely not be so civilized!

Of course, after the crew of "Zhu Xian" returned to the capital, several people soon had no time to care about the affairs of their children.

…… Next. Capital. Zhouyi Film and Television Headquarters. In the office, I saw Han Li report in an orderly manner: ""Embroidered Spring Knife" has been successfully reviewed, and it has not been cut, and the joint publicity and distribution team of Optical Fiber, Shangying, and Zhongying has begun to publicize step by step since the beginning of the year. Speaking of this, I saw Han Li suddenly speechless and said, "Boss, you don't know how fierce the Chinese New Year stalls are this year." ”

"In December alone, there were 35 films. As for blockbusters such as "Let the Bullets Fly", "Zhao's Orphan", "Laughing Jianghu" and "If You Are Honest Do Not Disturb 2", this year is even tougher than the other. ”

"I heard that Han Dong has come forward to mediate, but none of these companies are willing to change the gears, and they have the confidence to compete one by one, so they will not retreat." Hearing this, Gao Fei couldn't help frowning slightly.

Although film is said to be the seventh art, it is also a business after all. According to the Chinese New Year market in previous years, there can only be two blockbusters a month.

Even if the domestic film market develops faster this year, it is estimated that it can only accommodate three blockbusters at most.

is vindictive and willful in this kind of thing, is this a brain disease? It's no wonder that Zhongying wants to mediate.

After all, the amount of the box office is directly related to Han Dong's political achievements! Thinking of this, Gao Fei suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly and asked: """Embroidered Spring Knife" is scheduled for January 20th after the year, it should be Han Dong's suggestion, right?" Hearing this, Han Li couldn't help but feel a slight sinking in her heart.

She wanted to say no, but in fact it was indeed brought up by Han Sanpin. Therefore, even though he was worried that Gao Fei would do something irrational when he was young and vigorous, Han Li still nodded lightly.

Just looking at Han Li's worried look, Gao Fei suddenly smiled.

"Don't worry, I'm not that sensitive!" Gao Fei will not squeeze in the fun as soon as his brain is hot because of the actions of those producers, fantasizing about something like a showdown.

In his opinion, since it is a commercial film, the box office is more important than anything else. As long as it is beneficial to the final box office, then the schedule, face or something can be discussed!

Anyway, he doesn't have this kind of baggage in his heart. As the old saying goes, "Listen to others and eat well". Gao Fei has always felt that this statement is very reasonable.

And after seeing Gao Fei say this, Han Li suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Later, in order to ease the atmosphere, she deliberately joked: "Boss, fortunately, we didn't take over the "Let the Bullets Fly" last year, otherwise we would be the enemy now!" Seeing her say this, Gao Fei couldn't help but be happy when he thought about it, don't say it, it's true.

It is said that after Gao Fei finished from the crew of "Strange Man Yizhimei" last year, Uncle Ge pleaded with Jiang Wen and asked him to invite Gao Fei to come over and participate in "Let the Bullets Fly".

And seeing that Uncle Ge had such a high evaluation of Gao Fei, Jiang Wen was also interested. Immediately, after finding Gao Fei's movie to watch, he sent an invitation to Gao Fei without saying a word.

It's just that Gao Fei was busy acquiring Zhou Yi at that time, where did he still have the heart to take on any plays, so he refused without even reading the script on the excuse of insufficient schedule.

But he didn't want to let Jiang Wen target him. Later, the director of Jiang University wrote a letter to him, which was half-literate and half-white, which was quite interesting to watch.

Therefore, for the sake of his sincerity, Gao Fei still read the script to some extent. However, after reading it, Goofy refused more decisively this time.

Nothing else, he has no opinion on Brother Fa, and even more so on Jiang Wen and Uncle Ge. These are all top actors in his heart.

It's just that no matter how big these coffees are and how senior they are, Gao Fei doesn't feel the need for him to be shy and come up to match.

To be honest, who doesn't want to play the leading role when they are actors? Forget if others don't have that condition, since he has this ability, why does he still let his own male protagonist of "Embroidered Spring Knife" not act, but run upside down to match "Let the Bullets Fly"?

Anyway, they make money and don't share more of him, so why bother! Even if this "Let the Bullets Fly" explodes in the end, the audience will always only care about who the starring and director is.

As for the male supporting role? Ha~ What, maybe film artists will care about this! However, there are exceptions to special circumstances like "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic".

Because the key to that kind of film is no longer on the actors, it doesn't really matter whether it is the protagonist or the supporting role.

And when Gao Fei refused again, after listening to Han Li's euphemistic expression, Jiang Wen couldn't help but be stunned.

You must know that since his project "Let the Bullets Fly" was established, I don't know how many young actors in the circle have rushed to get it.

During this time, he didn't know how many old friends he had turned down. If it weren't for Gao Fei really making him look at him, he wouldn't have paid attention to it at all.

After all, a name like the Berlin actor may work in front of other directors, but it is really nothing to Jiang Wen.

Who let him personally bring out a Venice actor back then. If he really cares about this thing, why would he bother to find Gao Fei and just call Xia Yu with a phone call!

As for the popular Xiaosheng or something, he didn't care even more, otherwise Huang Xiaoming would have been looking for relationships a long time ago.

It's just that Jiang Wen never expected that Gao Fei would be so faceless...... And so urine!

Thinking of this, he suddenly became happy. Seeing this, Uncle Ge thought that he was so angry, and immediately hurriedly persuaded him not to give young people general knowledge.

But he didn't want Jiang Wen to appreciate it and smiled freely: "Not bad!" This kid is arrogant enough and has a temper with Lao Tzu! "You must know that when Jiang Wen was young, he was also a high-minded and arrogant lord.

Whether it is the older generation of great director Xie Jin, or the younger generation of Lao Mouzi, Jiang Wen has almost never been soft under them.

He never thought that he was much worse than these people, so every time he filmed, he would always have a fight with the director first, and he was so scared that no director in the circle dared to ask him to film anymore.

Now that feng shui is taking turns and meeting a Gao Fei who is more arrogant than him, Jiang Wen suddenly feels that the film and television industry seems to have become interesting again.

Of course, appreciation is appreciation. Since Gao Fei really didn't want to act, Jiang Wen naturally wouldn't beg him, so he quickly found Chen Kun to fill Gao Fei's gap.

It's just that there have never been any secrets in the entertainment industry, and it didn't take long for the news of Gao Fei's refusal to act.

Although Jiang Wen didn't care, Chen Kun cared, and the company behind him cared even more. So soon there were various rumors of Gao Fei's arrogance, disrespect for seniors, and playing big names in the circle.

If it hadn't just exploded

"Gao Fei spent 320 million yuan to acquire Zhou Yi" news, Han Li may have to work hard to block this black water.

However, the news of Gao Fei's acquisition of Zhou Yi at that time was too explosive, whether it was inside or outside the circle, almost all of them were refreshed by Gao Fei's operation.

So before this undercurrent was set off, it was automatically suppressed by Gao Fei. Even if similar releases can be seen on the Internet later, almost no netizens will take it seriously, and some even think that it is normal for Gao Fei to do this.

After all, it's really bad for actor Gao Fei to be arrogant, but it's not normal for the boss of a film and television company to be arrogant and arrogant!

…… But then again, fortunately, Gao Fei didn't take the play "Let the Bullets Fly" at that time, otherwise he would really be shooting himself in the foot now.

Because the schedules of the two movies are too close to each other, it is estimated that "Embroidered Spring Knife" will have to be released before "Let the Bullets Fly" go offline.

Of course, even if you meet Goofy head-on, it's not a shame. But in business, if you can make a little more, why bother with money!

Seeing Gao Fei see it so clearly, Han Li didn't know what to say for a while. To be honest, she wondered if Goofy was schizophrenic.

When she is more prodigal than anyone else, but sometimes she is as stable as an old dog, not at all like a young man, but she can only slander a few words in her heart.

And after confirming that the schedule of "Embroidered Spring Knife" was no problem, Han Li immediately talked about the announcement.

Just when it comes to the promotion of the movie, I have to mention "Strange Man Yizhimei". Because the two projects are bound together long before they are turned on.

Originally, with Gao Fei's super popularity and a good reputation in the field of TV dramas, "Strange Man Yizhimei" has attracted the attention of many TV stations after the project was established.

Now it has been added

"Zhou Yi and Tang Ren join forces",

With a big gimmick like "movie and TV series linkage", the sales of this drama are even more sufficient. Therefore, when "Strange Man Yizhimei" was still in post-production, many TV stations had already taken the initiative to inquire about the price.

Some even want to gamble and sign a contract directly. But this time, not only the TV station has confidence in this drama, but even Tang Ren and Zhou Yi are also very confident in this drama.

Therefore, it was not until after the production of the TV series was completed that Tang Ren and Zhou Yi began to sell. As soon as she talked about this, Han Li couldn't help but look excited.

Although because of Gao Fei's acquisition of Zhou Yi, Han Li was not less disliked by Cai Yinong on the project "Strange Man Yizhimei", but she also learned a lot.

And this is also the original intention of Gao Fei and Tang Ren to co-produce this drama at the beginning. I saw Han Li say with a smile on her eyebrows: "Actually, in July, the later stage of "Strange Man Yizhimei" was almost completed, and the rest was basically fighting with major TV stations. Speaking of this, Han Li was a little speechless while being happy.

"I've seen it this time, some old guys are really shameless."

"It's clear that everything is almost discussed, but the advantage is that I don't let it go at all." At first, Han Li thought that as long as the drama was good, everything would be fine, thinking that they were now a family with a few women, and it should be the TV station that was in a hurry.

But Cai Yinong's approach made Han Li realize what it was called

"There is a clear distinction between public and private"! What does that mean? Hehe, it's very simple. That is, the interests of the TV station belong to the TV station, and its own interests belong to itself, and the two cannot be confused at all.

If there is a conflict between the two, then it must be

The latter of the "clear distinction between public and private" shall prevail. This is also why, when Tang Ren sells dramas, he never engages in any high-priced deals.

Don't they really want to play like that? Not because of it

"It's man-made"! You must know that there are always more bad people on TV than there are people who do bad things. So this time, although the bid of Beijing Satellite TV was a little higher than that of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV, Cai Yinong finally chose Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV.

And the reason why this is so is entirely because Cai Yinong knows that the final payment of Beijing Satellite TV is the most difficult to collect.

And their film buying director has the worst reputation in the industry. Although Gao Fei had never heard of these insiders before, he was not too surprised after listening to Han Li's words.

How to say it, unexpected, reasonable! After all, there are too many such people in the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty, whether it is in the court or in the locality, there are many people who occupy positions like this and do not work.

Even those local officials not only do not work, but also prevent others from doing things. If you want to do something, take the money!

What he did was said to be an official of the imperial court, but in fact it was no different from the grass bandits who blocked the road and robbed. Therefore, for these magistrates, the official positions under their butts are actually similar to those of the mountain kings, and they are just a position to make money.

It is precisely because the court is full of such a group of people that the Great Song Dynasty, which has more than 100 million people, has shouted the Northern Expedition for more than 100 years, but it has not been able to recover Yanyun after all.

Thinking of this, Gao Fei suddenly sighed a little helplessly, and he didn't bother to think about these things anymore. If you are not in your position, you will not seek your own government.

It's only right for him to work hard to make money now...... Of course, Han Li complained and complained, and in the end, she still couldn't hide her excitement.

Because of this, in addition to Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV, Mango Satellite TV and Shanghai Satellite TV are also very interested in this drama.

Among the many TV stations, these are the most generous. So after some bargaining, these three finally won the first round of broadcast rights of "Strange Man Yizhimei" at a price of 800,000 per episode.

In this way, one TV station is 28.8 million. The three add up, and the producer of "Strange Man Yizhimei" can receive 86.4 million in the first round alone.

You must know that the total investment of this drama is only 52 million. In other words, just a first-round Gao Fei and others have already recovered their costs and made a small profit.

The most important thing is that in addition to the first round, there are also second and third rounds waiting for Gao Fei and others. However, the later this price compares with the first round, it will definitely fall sharply, and it may not be able to sell.

Unless a TV series is not optimistic at the beginning, but later becomes a dark horse and becomes popular, it is rare that the price of the second round of TV series will be higher than the price of the first round.

Of course, even if the price decreases in turn, as long as the TV series becomes more popular, then even the second and third rounds can be sold at a good price.

And compared to the first round, because of the lower price, the buyers of the second and third rounds often increase significantly.

It is almost not a problem for a hit drama to sell seven or eight in the second round. As for the three rounds, it's even simpler, and by this time, the producer can almost be called a big sale.

As long as the price is not too outrageous, you can basically take it. Therefore, according to Cai Yinong's speculation, the remaining two and three rounds of broadcast rights are combined, and it is estimated that it will not be a problem for "Strange Man Yizhimei" to sell another 10 or 20 million.

In this way, in the broadcast rights alone, Gao Fei and others can make 40 or 50 million yuan while recovering the cost.

This number doesn't seem to make much money on movies. But in the current domestic TV drama market, making money is not only a channel for broadcasting rights.

For example, in addition to selling dramas in the mainland, Gao Fei and others can also wait for the TV series to become popular in the mainland, and then sell them in Hong Kong, Taiwan and overseas.

However, this aspect is more time-consuming and laborious, so it is difficult to give a clear estimate of profit for a while.

And in addition to the above channels, TV series producers usually have three ways to make money. The first one, of course, is DVD copyright.

However, piracy is rampant in China nowadays, so the DVD copyright fee is actually better than nothing, and it can only be sold at a cabbage price.

And the second one, naturally, is to pull sponsorship and earn advertising fees. Don't think that costume dramas can't attract sponsorship, you must know that there is a kind of patch advertising in the opening and ending parts of TV dramas today.

And this kind of advertising space is the magic weapon used by TV series producers to attract sponsorship. Some TV drama production companies can even rely on this trick to directly recoup costs.

This method seems a bit unseemly, but there is no way, if the producer does not use this kind of position, the TV station will sell it.

However, this set can be used in the past two years, and Gao Fei heard the rumors, and it is said that it is ready to ban the existence of this kind of patch advertising.

So while he can still make money now, this time Tang Ren can be said to have launched it, so the connections will make use of all the patch advertising space.

As for the last profitable channel, it has only emerged in recent years. Because before the advent of Internet video websites, there were no network copyright fees.

It's just that this time Sohu Video itself is the investor of "Strange Man Yizhimei", so the network copyright naturally belongs to it.

However, it is not too much to search over there, and the reason why I want this priority is just to prevent other peers from maliciously raising prices.

Therefore, after some internal negotiation between the three investors, Sohu Video finally successfully won the exclusive online broadcast rights of "Strange Man Yizhimei" at a price of 500,000 per episode.

In this way, it is another 18 million. …… In the office, after listening to Han Li finish talking about these data, Gao Fei immediately thought about it with his eyes slightly closed.

After a while, he finally asked why the gross profit of Huayi Brothers' film business last year was only 68 million, but the gross profit of the TV drama business was as high as 237 million.

It turns out that filming TV series is really making money! Don't look at Gao Fei on "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", it seems that he easily made more than 100 million, but that is just a special case.

You must know that movies have always been a high-risk, high-reward commodity. In the Chinese film market, there are only a few such movies a year.

And it is even less allocated to domestic film and television companies. In comparison, the TV drama business is much more secure.

Even if the TV series is not a big hit, but only the quality is guaranteed, most of them can not lose money, and finally take a trickle of water and slow profits.

Of course, any business is risky. The so-called stability of the TV drama business is only relative to movies.

But compared to movies, the TV series business has one of the biggest advantages. That is, the seller it is dealing with is the TV station, not the countless uncontrollable viewers in the cinema.

In this way, in fact, as long as the TV drama production company gets the TV station, it can directly monetize the TV series in its hands.

Compared with the more than 100 TV stations in the country, it is obviously more elusive for the audience in the cinema.

Thinking of this, Goofy finally opened his eyes. Looking at Han Li's smiling appearance, Gao Fei immediately couldn't help but smile and sighed: "It seems that we have made a lot of money by acquiring Zhou Yi!" Hearing this, the smile on Han Li's face suddenly became even stronger.

Jiang Hong, who was on the side, couldn't help but admire when he heard this: "Boss, if the company can maintain the current level in terms of movie and TV series content, I think it is absolutely possible to go public within five years!" "You must know that the requirements for domestic companies to log on the GEM of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange are mainly only two points: first, the company needs to make a profit for 2 years, and the cumulative amount of net profit is not less than 10 million yuan; Second, the company's operating income in the latest year is not less than 50 million yuan, and the growth rate of operating income in the last two years is not less than 30%.

Of course, if you really want to log in to the GEM and successfully list, it will naturally not be so simple. But at least judging from the current strength of Zhou Yi Film and Television, it is still very possible to go public.

And after listening to Jiang Hong's words, Gao Fei and Han Li couldn't help but smile heartily after glancing at each other.

However, after the fun, several people quickly got busy. After all, although their future is very bright, they still need to be down-to-earth to achieve it.

If you see hope and then lie in bed and fall asleep, then hope will eventually become a luxury.

…… I don't know if it's because of the magic of money, or because of the stimulus of going public. After returning to the capital this time, Gao Fei rarely did not start the vacation mode as before, but chose to continue to operate.

However, with his current status, although advertising endorsements are not very affected, it is really not suitable for commercial performances.

Therefore, in the following business days, Gao Fei was mainly busy with the publicity work of "Strange Man Yizhimei".

Forehead...... That doesn't seem right. To be precise, Gao Fei is in order to promote "Embroidered Spring Knife", and he is working hard to run the publicity and distribution activities of "Strange Man Yizhimei".

Because there is still a while before the release of "Embroidered Spring Knife", but "Strange Man Yizhimei" is about to start.

And what is the power of the linkage publicity, I will look at it for a while. If the effect is good, this set of publicity and distribution examples is enough to use as a teaching material for business schools.

In the future, the major film and television companies in the industry are estimated to have to follow the example of a cat and a tiger. At that time, although Zhou Yi Film and Television will not have any substantial interests, it is estimated that the rise of word-of-mouth and goodwill will be indispensable.
