184 Program Plans and Sky-high Prices "East Palace"

"Spring Festival Gala? You're going to the Spring Festival Gala. ”

Hearing that Wei Yang was invited by the Spring Festival Gala program group, she was even more excited than Wei Yang herself.

For the post-70~90s age group, especially northerners, they still have a lot of feelings for the Spring Festival Gala.

Not to mention that as an artist in the entertainment industry, it is still an honor to be able to appear on the Spring Festival Gala, the largest party stage in China, even if it is more than ten years back.

There is no need to study in detail how much the bonus of the Spring Festival Gala is, as long as there is a bonus, it will be good for the artist, and there are examples like Xiao Shen Yang in the past two years, who doesn't want to reproduce it.

That is to say, Wei Yang is now popular and belongs to the top stream, so he has the confidence to weigh it and consider it.

Those who are weaker, such as those third- and fourth-tier small artists and newcomers who have just debuted, will not hesitate at all if they can show up at the Spring Festival Gala.

It can also be seen from some background coffees on the Spring Festival Gala that this stage is too tempting for ordinary artists in the entertainment industry.........

"Don't get excited, this is not a rehearsal yet, I don't know what to do with the show, maybe someone will brush it off."

"Are you fools?"

Xiao Zhao snorted lightly: "With your current popularity, except for Teacher Zhao Benshan, no one can brush it." ”

Obviously, the Spring Festival Gala is fancy to Wei Yang's popularity and topicality, it doesn't matter what program it is, if a program is not successful, then change it, as long as the person arrives.

"That being said, but such a good opportunity can't be wasted, and we still have to find a way to be a little more brilliant."

"So what show do you want to do? Opusculum? Sing? ”

"Forget the sketches, I can't fight those old ones."

Wei Yang eliminated the two options, and Xiao Zhao nodded: "Then you can only sing, I almost forgot, you are the mainland Xiao Zhou Jielun, write a song by yourself." ”

"Don't mention that obscure nickname."

Wei Yang was angry when he heard this nickname, others were reborn, and it was Jay Chou who was [Xiao XX of Taiwan Province], and when it was his turn, he would become [Little Zhou Lun of the Mainland].

Besides, he is not a professional singer, except for singing film and television theme songs, he only sings occasionally on programs and activities, how can he be mixed up.

Sing!

This is almost Wei Yang's only choice, and he is also mentally prepared enough, and there are currently three directions.

One is Chinese style, which has been the hottest in the past two years, and it is suitable for the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, but with Jay Chou Zhuyu in front, and even competing in the same field, he is afraid that he will not be able to do it.

The other is emotional songs, family, positive energy, patriotism and other themes, he has a lot of them, the lower limit is extremely high, and the upper limit is not easy to say, which can be used as a bottom choice.

The last choice, Wei Yang felt that simple singing was a bit dry, and wanted to have something fresh and foreign, try singing and dancing, and the best male and female duo singing and dancing.

Priority is given to Latin dances, which are amorous, warm, ambiguous, and silky......

However, the difficulty is that Wei Yang does not have a deep dance foundation, he needs to learn and rehearse from scratch, and the difficulty of dancing cannot be too high, and the choice of actresses is also a problem.

The best topic effect must be Fan Xiaopang, with the popularity and popularity of the two people, coupled with Fan Xiaopang's good reputation now, if the show effect is good, it may not be impossible to convince the Spring Festival Gala program team.

Another option is Naza, which has a dance foundation, and more importantly, cooperates with "East Palace" to build momentum, which can support newcomers.

After that, it's Liu Shishi.

The foundation of dance is not a problem, and the tacit understanding is also guaranteed, The CP effect is not as good as Fan Xiaopang, but it is also handy, and the company's internal voice can barely hold it down considering the in-depth cooperation with the Tang people, mainly on Xiao Zhao's side.

So Wei Yang struggled for a moment and didn't make a decision right away.

I plan to make all three program plans first, and then find a vocal teacher and dance teacher to give it a try, and then wait until the Spring Festival Gala is finished to make a decision.

The Spring Festival is in early February, and it is just early October, so there is still plenty of time to prepare.........

In October, in addition to being busy with the Spring Festival Gala and filming, Wei Yang also had to worry about two important things.

First, the release of "East Palace"!

Since the crew was completed in late July, after more than two months of post-production, the finished TV series has been roughly formed, and the two schedules of New Year's Day and winter vacation in January next year can be broadcast.

Because of this, the copyright battle of all parties related to this drama has also begun to become fierce.

Because "You from the Star", the two Hunan Province and Su Province, which have tasted the sweetness, are bound to win Wei Yang's new drama.

And because the Zhenhua trilogy has a good relationship with the Blue Whale and Wei Yang, the Modu Tai is also eyeing it.

Beijing and Zhejiang Province used to just watch other TV stations eat meat, but this time they are not willing to be left behind, and they want a piece of the pie.

The remaining second- and third-tier television stations in Hui Province, Lu Province, Jinmen, Shenshi, and Liao Province, although there is a gap in financial resources and strength between them and the above major television stations, if they can reach a union, the resources they can accumulate are not inferior.

According to rough estimates, at least nearly 20 provincial-level TV stations have asked Blue Whale for prices, and a total of 11 have obvious intentions or have already made actual bids.

Since the inception of Blue Whale, the distribution of this show has been surprisingly the best.

Because there is no need to ask for a TV station or a social negotiation, but the platform party takes the initiative to grab it.

But at the same time, it is one of the most difficult projects to do, because there are too many platforms to think about, the price negotiation workload is very large, and at the same time, it is really painful and happy to not offend the platform party.

Regarding the issuance, it is not Wei Yang's strong point, so he only pays attention behind the scenes, and the specific work has always been the responsibility of the general manager Lao Xia.

Lao Xia is very hard-working, after all, the company has his shares, and the more the blue whale earns, the more he shares.

Therefore, he has been constantly negotiating with various TV stations and even other platforms during this time, not only to sell at a high price, but also to constantly strive for other resources.

For example, variety shows, advertisements, and TV series produced by TV stations can all take the opportunity for their own artists to win.

From the development of artists in the Tianyu Department, you can understand how important it is to be backed by a TV station, and if you can share a small piece of cake, it will be enough for the artists of the Blue Whale to eat for a while.

Lao Xia regularly reports to Wei Yang every three days, and if there are special circumstances, there will be further notice, so Wei Yang is always aware of the current issuance progress.

At present, the TV station has basically divided the general camp, and the three companies of Modu, Su Province, and Hunan Province have deep pockets and want to directly win the first round of exclusivity.

The capital pulled the two Jinmen to make a joint bid, Zhejiang Province cooperated with Hui Province, and the remaining one was a joint bid of four Shangxing Satellite TV.

The highest bidders were four alliances, with a single episode of 2.2 million, or 110 million yuan, which has set a new record for the price of domestic dramas in "Dream of New Red Mansions", which can be described as full of sincerity.

According to Boss Wei's character, he has always sold to whoever gives more.

But sometimes the high bid does not determine everything, and the premise of [giving more] to sell first is to be able to [give it].

As I said before, there are many cases of account entanglements between TV stations and film and television companies, and Wei Yang has always preferred to cooperate with big TV stations, just because the influence of other platforms is high, and the payment is neat.

Don't look at the 110 million from these four TV stations, but it's hard to say whether they can all arrive or when they will all arrive.

This is still the four TV stations are well-known, and the industry reviews are okay, so Wei Yang is still in the scope of consideration, if there are some TV stations with inferior financial resources and bad records, Wei Yang may have passed the four alliances a long time ago.

You just offer 200 million, he can't get his hands on a fart, Wei Yang would rather sell it cheaper, and he also hopes to get back the money quickly.

As long as the money arrives quickly, tens of millions of dollars lie on the account, and there are ways to make up for the slight price difference.........

Aside from the four alliances, the highest bidders are Modu and Zhejiang/Hui Province, both of which are 2 million for a single episode, with a total price of 100 million.

This price is not low, and the ceiling of the current domestic TV drama market is about 2 million.

In terms of the lineup of "East Palace", in fact, Wei Yang is the only one who carries the ratings, and there are many episodes, so it is natural to lower some of the unit prices.

The blue whale's own psychological price for this drama is probably in this range, which is nothing more than a little more, and then the pull of other resources and interests.

The bid of Beijing and Tianjin is 95 million, and the lowest price given by Hunan Province and Taiwan is only 85 million, but a lot of variety shows and TV series resources are taken out, and the comprehensive value is very considerable.

The most interesting thing is Su Province, he found that it was difficult for his own bidding to form a competitive advantage, so he simply found another way and directly asked for the filming of "Shanshan is Coming".

2 million for a single episode!

Normally, the TV station will calculate the cost of the drama when buying, if the advantages in other aspects are limited, the low-cost price cannot be sold at a high price, after all, the TV station is not a big deal.

The cost of "Shanshan is Coming" is limited, even if Wei Yang is in charge, it is normally difficult to sell a single episode of 2 million, and Su Shengtai offered this price, which is a gamble to some extent.

After betting on "East Palace", Wei Yang continued to be popular, and he also bet on the quality of this drama, if he wins the bet, the tens of millions will be worth it.

"What a clever little ghost."

Wei Yang couldn't help but feel emotional, and Lao Xia urged to ask if he could sell it, this price was even higher than "You from the Star" at that time, far exceeding the expectations of the blue whale, Lao Xia felt that he could make a move.

Even Boss Wei was a little hesitant, the price was indeed a little tempting, but in the end he chose to slow down.

Anyway, the cost of "Shanshan is Coming" is only 20 million, and the advertising placement alone is almost recovered, anyway, it is all earned, it is better to gamble.

If "East Palace" explodes, other TV stations are estimated to come over to grab it, and 2 million per episode may not be the limit.

"Tell them to sell "East Palace" first, and don't consider anything else for the time being."

Although Lao Xia regretted it, he didn't object, but said: "The "East Palace" is almost finished, and the basic cards of each family have been removed, and there is only the last trembling left. ”

Wei Yang thought about it, understood what everyone was waiting for, and couldn't help but shake his head: "If you don't see a rabbit, you don't scatter an eagle, if the results of "Hello, Old Times" are good, tear off a piece of meat for me." ”

"Haha, don't worry, you have to let them bleed more."

Lao Xia is very confident in "Hello, Old Times", and the title of the Zhenhua trilogy is not covered.

It's okay for various TV stations to explore the blue whale's catty, but after this drama is broadcast, it once again proves the production ability of the blue whale, so it will have to increase the price again.........
