Galaxy City Airport.

At this moment, Lu Heng came to Galaxy City with the team of his program team, ready to meet Su Mu.

If it is according to most of the situation, it is the celebrities who go to Mango City to negotiate with their program team.

But only this time it's the other way around.

As a program director who has been in the industry for so long, Lu Heng certainly understands how big Su Mu's current fan base is.

And his show takes off if he wants ratings.

There is no doubt that Su Mu is the core figure of this 'actor in place'.

Because of the mentor seat, almost all the topics that may be extended are related to Su Mu and centered on him.

For example, the matter between him and Director Wang Wei, the past grievances between him and Director Dong Xuefei, and the star players who may participate in the placement of actors this time, etc., may more or less have some kind of friction with Su Mu.

And once there is such a topicality, coupled with Su Mu's current influence, it will be difficult for this show not to explode.

It was precisely because of this that Lu Heng decided that he must take the initiative to bring his team to Yinhe City and negotiate with Su Mu face-to-face.

Of course, the other main purpose is to push the price down as much as possible.

The approval of the funds given by Taili is too low, and controlling costs is the first major problem.

After leaving the airport, everyone prepared to take a taxi to the hotel.

The assistant of the team walked over, looked at Lu Heng and then spoke.

"Boss, what are we going to do next? Is it to contact the company on Sumu's side directly? Or ......"

Lu Heng shook his head: "It's not the time yet, we need to prepare for a day, let's go to the hotel first, and then have a meeting in the hotel, we must sort out our chips and conditions."

If you talk to Su Mu in person right away, the preparation is not sufficient, and it is difficult to achieve the goal. ”

The people behind him listened, and they were somewhat puzzled.

"Boss, in fact, I don't think we need to be so rushed, after all, our side is Mango Channel, and almost all stars who want to come to our station to participate in variety shows have to queue up."

"Yes, and this time the variety show, the station has also paid a lot of attention, as long as such a theme has a little quality, it can be popular, and many people want to come, do we still need to beg others?"

"Although Su Mu is very popular now and the box office of the movie is also high, his qualifications are still a little shallow, right?"

Everyone spoke.

Lu Heng waved his hand: "Okay, don't say this kind of thing in the future, if you are recorded, you don't want to mix it up?" ”

“……”

“……”

Everyone was silent.

Lu Heng sighed.

He knew that maybe the people under his command had been sitting in Mango Channel, one of the top TV stations in the country, for a long time, and they would have a certain sense of superiority.

In fact, he was so proud a long time ago.

But the longer I have been in this industry, the more I know that all this superiority does not come from myself, but the platform behind them, and if they remove the identity of their Mango Channel program group now, then in fact, if you look in the circle, it is nothing, and no one will bird you at all.

So it's very important who is behind the platform.

Patted the assistant on the shoulder.

Lu Heng said in a deep voice: "Put away your arrogance, Su Mu's top class, do you think he will care about one of our TV shows?"

His movies have a box office of billions, and now overseas film and television companies are looking for him to cooperate, who is looking down at the top of their heads, don't you know?

If you want ratings, give me a low profile later, and if this conversation fails because of your contempt, give me the fuck off. ”

“…”

“…”

Everyone remained silent.

Lu Heng continued: "In the top layer of Huaxia, I can't find a second Su Mu, and if the show wants to get results, we must take him down this time." ”

Assistant: "Boss, don't worry, we all understand, we won't say it anymore, it's just Su Mu's offer... It shouldn't be easy to talk about. ”

Lu Heng suddenly smiled confidently: "Xiao Li, you don't understand, if we can take the initiative to come, it is already sincere enough, and once I have not succeeded in lowering the price, as long as we are well prepared, everything is possible." ”

"Good!"

As he spoke, everyone walked out of the airport, as if they had triumphed.

Went to the hotel.

After a day of discussion, Lu Heng and his team summarized and listed several large sheets of paper.

The important selling points and advantages of the show, including the rhetoric and rhetoric, are all edited.

even simulated a plan for several situations, which was bound to make Su Mu agree.

After everything is done.

Lu Heng confidently got in touch with Qian Jida.

The two parties agreed to meet the next day, and the venue was in the business of their hotel, and a conference room was chartered.

Originally, Qian Jida wanted them to come directly to the company.

But after all, it was the first time to meet, and if the negotiation agreement was reached, it would not be too late to invite them to the entertainment building when the contract was finally signed.

…

Early the next morning.

Master Zhu's RV drove downstairs to Su Mu.

Qian Jida bought breakfast with Xiao Tangerine and waited for Su Mu to come down in the car.

I'm going to meet with Mango Terrace today, so I still have to be in a bit of working condition.

"Mr. Qian." While eating, the little orange asked, "Actually, doesn't the boss like to participate in variety shows?" ”

Qian Jida pouted: "It may be that variety shows make too little money." ”

Little Tangerine: "I recently saw that a lot of fans on the Internet are calling below, and I want Su Mu to re-shoot an idol drama, after all, the cycle of making movies is too long, and I don't like to wait."

If the boss shoots an idol drama, fans will probably be so excited that they can't sleep.

Qian Ji Dana smiled.

Of course, it is possible to shoot, but the problem is still about money.

If you just get paid, Su Mu may of course choose to shoot some idol dramas or Gu with higher salaries.

But compared to the huge profits at the box office of the movie, then it must be the latter who makes more money.

Even if the cycle is a little longer, the rate of return is very high.

Of course, this is also on the basis of a certain box office guarantee.

If the movie is made and doesn't even know what kind of water mark the box office base is, then there will be considerable risks.

It's not that there is no such thing as a street hit in the circle.

The actors and scripts I was looking for, I thought it was okay when I was filming.

As a result, after the release, the box office was bleak and sparse, not to mention whether they could make money, there were many people who couldn't even make money at the box office and couldn't even recover the cost of shooting.

So in fact, in the eyes of many people, making movies is also risky.

However, at present, Su Mu does not need to worry about such problems, at least in terms of his influence now, even if it is not a particularly high-quality movie, it is estimated that the box office will be very high.

It's still no problem to earn a few small goals easily.

But in doing so, it will consume fans, and unless he is stupid, it is impossible to do so.

At this point,

The door is opened.

Su Mu took his seat.

I took a bun with a small orange and ate a few bites.

"Mr. Qian, are Mango's program team so diligent? Ready for an interview so early? I thought I'd have a lunch at noon, or maybe we'll talk in the afternoon. ”

Qian Jida shook his head: "Listening to the meaning on the phone, they seem to be very eager to meet, and they are very anxious to talk to us, anyway, it is better to negotiate it early." ”

Su Mu: "Well, okay, before leaving, I will have an interview with the program team of Mango Channel this time, and I will briefly talk about two words." ”

Qian Jida: "......"

Little Orange: "......"

Master Zhu: "Okay. ”

…

…

More than half an hour later.

The car came to the hotel they booked, and then went directly to the business center.

When I entered the room, I saw a group of seven or eight people, analyzing something around the computer.

Seeing Su Mu and the others coming in, the man led by him stepped forward directly and greeted him with a smile.

"Hello Su Mu, I am the program director of Mango Channel, my name is Lu Heng, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Su Mu smiled and shook hands with the other party.

Then I greeted Lu Heng for a while, and then everyone went directly to the topic.

After all, they are all here to work, there is no need to be too polite, time is precious.

Lu Heng got straight to the point,

first told Su Mu about the details of the process of this variety show.

It's probably about finding four mentors, and then each picking their own cast and performing a different round for each round.

And most of the contestants who participated in this variety show are well-known actors, of course, there are also young rookie actors.

The mentors lead their own teams and compete with each other, which may be a bridge in a certain movie, or they need on-site guidance and impromptu creation, etc.

Su Mu listened,

Compare my heart with the 'actor please be in place' in my previous life.

It's all pretty much the same.

I got to the end.

Finally, it came to the question of money.

Lu Heng smiled on his face, and a touch of confidence flashed in his eyes, and he spoke.

"Actually, this time, we want to talk to you about the offer in person, this is sincerity, I don't know if Su Mu can give it lower, it's not a secret, Taili wants to control the cost, and we can't give it too high, alas, to be honest, it's really not easy for our group to ......"

Lu Heng said sadly.

Playing the emotional card?

Su Mu raised his eyebrows and smiled in his heart.

Then without waiting for Lu Heng to finish speaking, he showed an expression of approval, and his eyes were sincere and gentle.

"Director Lu, I know."

"Huh? You know? ”

"Yes, the difficulties of your program team, in fact, I can understand it best."

“…？”

Su Mu felt empathetic: "It's a lot of pressure at work, right? There are many difficulties to solve, and costs must be controlled. It's like I'm pulling the whole company by myself now, and it's not easy, from oil, salt, sauce and vinegar to firewood, rice, oil, and salt......

I have to calculate little by little, after all, I don't have any partners and capital behind me, I pull it slowly, although it is a little bitter now, but I believe it will be better in the future.

So seeing you is like seeing me before, so I can understand what you said, and since you have taken the initiative to speak, then I think this matter is also necessary to embarrass you. ”

Lu Heng: "......"

Qian Jida: "? ”

Everyone: "? ”

Su Mu talked a lot about Lu Heng's face.

Others always feel that something is wrong, but they can't say it.

It's just that the empathetic look in Su Mu's eyes makes people feel soft.

You see, what a gentle man.

Or is it someone who deserves to be close and friends......

In this part of talking about the announcement fee, Lu Heng has almost never seen such a good actor.

As soon as I said it, I agreed.

Lu Heng suddenly felt a little moved inexplicably, and the previous inner defense line was instantly put down.

I prepared a lot of response plans, but I suddenly felt useless.

To tell the truth, it is difficult for Su Mu to pull a company by himself, but at this time, he can not embarrass himself, he can only say that he is righteous enough!

Lu Heng: "Thank you so much Su Mu, alas, I originally thought it was ......"

Su Mu waved his hand and motioned to Lu Heng not to say: "It's okay Director Lu, let's do it, you quote, I'll see how much you can give first." ”

After listening, Lu Heng sighed.

To be honest, he was a little unbearable at this time.

Looking at Su Mu's eyes, Lu Heng thought for a while, and then said, "Actually, we are going to give you 8 million." ”

"8 million?" After Su Mu heard this, there was no embarrassment or displeasure in his eyes, but his voice was more gentle, and his handsome face made it difficult for people to leave his sight: "Director Lu, in fact, it stands to reason that I can completely agree to this 8 million, but you and I hit it off at first sight, then we are all friends, right." ”

Lu Heng: "Yes..."

Su Mu: "I think so, if the show is to be done, of course it must be done to the best, do you say?" ”

Lu Heng nodded: "Of course..."

Su Mu: "But since you want to do your best, then good steel must be used on the blade, and good money must be given to the most valuable people, isn't this the truth?" ”

Lu Heng nodded: "That's right, that's the truth." ”

Su Mu: "Recording a show, in fact, is the same as recording a movie, there must be a core protagonist in the variety show, and there is also a protagonist in the movie, and the entire plot is driven through this protagonist, including the box office or ratings of this drama, do you say?" ”

Lu Heng: "Well, you're right. ”

Su Mu smiled: "So, ah, if... In front of you at this time, there is a male protagonist who can not only assume the leading role, but also bring traffic, create topics and ratings, and even provide you with a richer plot in the variety show, so do you think you should give more? ”

Lu Heng: "Should... Presumably. ”

(ω)

Su Mu: "In any variety show, if he doesn't take 20 million in the announcement fee, can this thing be done?" ”

Lu Heng shook his head: "No." ”

Su Mu nodded with satisfaction, his eyes were full of tenderness: "Xiao Heng, so do you think that if you give me the 8 million, can you get peace of mind, I know, it must be not, so if we add another 10 million to this back, will the whole person's mood be relaxed?" ”

[Emote Mastery +1]

[Emotion Proficiency +1]

[Speech +1]

[…]

Lu Heng nodded stunned: "Uh... It's really... Hey. ”

Assistant: "??? ”

Everyone: "!! ”

Qian Jida: "......"

Su Mu patted him on the shoulder, and then got up: "Okay, this matter is so decided, I will suffer a loss, 18 million, rest assured, this variety show, I guarantee that you will have a breaking point in every issue, how about it?" ”

"Every issue?" Lu Heng nodded stupidly: "Okay... Good! ”

What a gentle top-notch.

People who add money are in a good mood.

…

Negotiations are over.

It turned out to be 18 million.

Conference room.

The assistant was puzzled: "Boss, what about your self-confidence yesterday?" Didn't you say that the price had to be lowered? How did you end up believing him? The period is all bursting, maybe? ”

Lu Heng: "I don't know, but, he understands me." ”

“……？”

“……？”
