099 Finalized
Lu Ping'an continued to ask: "Didn't the bonus given to you by the movie come in handy?" β
"Maybe it's not famous enough, movies and TV series are not the same."
"That's right."
Dong Xuan's performance in the film this time did not cause any controversy, just showing his back, but not showing his face, which is nothing.
On the contrary, because she is beautiful and has a good figure, she is a miserable horse in the film, and many people remember her.
However, this is only a small fire, it is limited, and it will pass soon after the movie is released.
If Dong Xuan is like Yan Danchen in "Yuan", it will be a killing of the two worlds.
It's a pity that her most brilliant shot in "Time and Space" was cut, if she showed a little
Well, if it's a dew point, you might have to study in Britain.
Then Lu Ping'an said: "Give me your director's phone number." β
"You're going to help me?" Dong Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and his heart became soft.
"It's to help myself."
Lu Ping'an told the truth.
"Thank you!"
Dong Xuan didn't care, he was overjoyed, and directly gave the number, and then said, "I'll talk to the producer first." β
After more than ten minutes, she finished the phone call and happily said that Producer Li was very grateful to him, and she could talk later.
Accept the number, and then the banquet continues, and more than an hour later, everyone turned to KTV.
Everyone sang, Lu Ping'an called several TV stations directly, and after explaining the situation, everyone said that they could talk.
Then Lu Ping'an called the producer of "Goddess Dragon" again.
Then the two parties agreed to watch the film in Beijing tomorrow.
After making an appointment, she continued to sing, Liu Qianqian sang without any characteristics, why did she want to make her debut in neon in the future?
At 11 o'clock, everyone left one after another, and the upstairs hotel room was opened, and a group of drunks could be taken care of.
The next day came the appointed time, Dong Xuan and Li Peng, the producer of "Goddess Dragon".
The two sides met and thanked each other for a while.
"Director Lu, thank you this time."
"Producer Li doesn't need to thank me so quickly, I haven't watched the film yet."
"The road guide can rest assured that the quality of the film is definitely not bad."
After a brief chat, several people set off for Xingchen Company.
Along the way, Li Peng talked about the difficulties he encountered when selling films, and Lu Ping'an knew the same, low cost, the plot was a little naΓ―ve, there were no bright stars, and so on.
However, it can definitely be sold, and Li Peng also has his own connections.
But the problem is that the price is not high, and it is too different from his expectations.
"How much do you want to sell?"
Lu Ping'an asked.
"There will be at least 20,000 episodes in the first round, and we will have to sell more than four TV stations, so that we can pay back."
Li Peng did not hide it.
He knew the name of Lu Ping'an.
Although Lu Ping'an is nothing in the TV drama circle, his connections can't be counted as such.
People are willing to say that they will help you publish, so there is probably a lot of certainty.
Even if he is not sure, it is still a way to become a dead horse and a live horse doctor, after all, Li Peng himself has indeed encountered too many walls.
After hearing this, Lu Ping'an felt that there was indeed some truth in not being able to sell it.
This year, Zhang Jizhong's "Dragon Babu" is 70,000 episodes, which is already a "sky-high price".
"Goddess Dragon" sells for 20,000 yuan, which is actually an average compared with other ordinary martial arts films, but as a "three-no bad movie", it is indeed higher.
"What's your bottom line?"
Lu Ping'an then asked.
Li Peng shook his head helplessly: "There is no bottom line, it would be good if it could be sold." β
That's pretty much it.
TV series are the same as movies, the broadcast is the most important thing, and if it can't be broadcast, it's useless to say anything.
Li Peng is mentally prepared for this, and Xingchen Company will be able to operate next.
Then came to the company, and Lu Ping'an asked people to prepare for the screening.
Xingchen Company has its own screening room, and "Goddess Dragon" is an electronic copy, so it is not difficult to play.
While waiting, Lu Ping'an took a few people to visit the showroom.
After a while, I started watching the film.
For the sake of insurance, Li Peng brought all 45 episodes.
It will take more than a day to see it all without fast forwarding.
Of course, Lu Ping'an won't watch them all, he will only spend an afternoon jumping to watch.
And this is already quite serious.
watched the film one afternoon, Li Peng helped introduce a lot, Lu Ping'an revisited the plot and felt that there was no difference, so in the end he and Li Peng said: "Is the film selling?" β
Li Peng: "??? β
Lu Ping'an said with a smile: "You sold this piece to me, and the price is negotiable." β
Li Peng: "I have to think about this. β
"You can think about it, how much does your film cost, less than 5 million, right?"
"Almost."
"Can I double the profit?"
"This..."
"The current situation is that you can't sell 20,000 episodes, and 20,000 episodes are 900,000, even if you sell five TV stations, it's not easy to return to the capital, right?"
βγγγ In fact, it can still return to its original cost. β
"How long will that take?"
Lu Ping'an continued to persuade, "I'll pay 6 million, I can pay now, think about it?" β
Lu Ping'an bid 6 million, and Li Peng suddenly fell into hesitation.
The total cost of this film is actually less than 4 million, and at first he thought it would be a big profit.
But in fact, he has been very shaken these days.
The TV stations in the mainland have a high vision, and they are really not easy to sell.
TV series, being able to broadcast is the most important thing, broadcasting, that is, being able to be bought by the TV station, and if people don't buy it, it is a loss.
Now Lu Ping'an is willing to buy, and the bid is good, if it is 6 million, it will make a profit of 50%, which is very good.
In this way, the financial pressure can be reduced instantly, and investors can also make money, and everyone is happy.
But the problem is that Lu Ping'an is so optimistic, which makes him a little hesitant.
Lu Ping'an pulled Li Peng over at this time and whispered: "Don't tell Dong Xuan about me buying the film." β
Li Peng looked puzzled, and immediately revealed his clear meaning: "You mean... β
Lu Ping'an gave a look: "Keep it secret!" β
Li Peng nodded slowly, he knew the reason why Lu Ping'an spent a lot of money.
Although he still had doubts, he also decided to shout again.
"This film has poured a lot of effort into me...
"6.5 million!"
"Director Lu, that's not what I meant."
"7 million, it can't be more, otherwise I'll shoot her again."
"800, okay."
"718 is good, it's auspicious!"
"788 is fine."
"718, that's it, I can pay you now."
βγγγβ
The two of them went back and forth in the viewing room.
When they finally came out, the two were smiling.
Dong Xuan was very happy, it seemed that Lu Ping'an would indeed help.
The matter was decided, and Lu Ping'an won the film at a price of 7.18 million.
Then I met with the person in charge of the TV station that I had made an appointment.
As for Li Peng and Dong Xuan, they were handed over to Wu Guohua for entertainment.
When I arrived at the hotel, Lu Ping'an had dinner with Deputy Director Li of Jingcheng Station and the director of film purchase.
In fact, in this kind of business situation, the quality of the film is secondary, and it is still a network of contacts.
The deputy director of the director's office brought it, and Deputy Director Li met during the promotion of "Yuan", the introducer is Han Sanpin, this is his old classmate, Secretary Dong and this also know each other, and the relationship is okay, both of them value Lu Ping'an, Lu Ping'an is also famous, even if the status of the two sides is actually not equal, Deputy Director Li is willing to make friends.
With the stepping stone, the door is opened, and then it will be easy to talk, and if there is some resource exchange, it will be even better to talk.
Lu Ping'an will not really regard himself as a big director now, and he will be unstoppable.
So when I met, I still had to send what I should send, and I did what I should do.
The etiquette was done, the two sides chatted a few words about the next movie, and Lu Ping'an also said directly, if you have friends or something, you can come and play, you may not be able to give a good role, and there is no problem in general.
This is what Deputy Director Li wants, he has a daughter who is a screenwriter, and being able to be named in Lu Ping'an's movies is a great qualification.
Then it's about talking about the film, and it's over after a brief chat, and the official watch of the film will be tomorrow.
The banquet ended, Lu Ping'an arranged the next one, and Deputy Director Li waved his hand and said that we don't need to do this between us.
Well, then send tea, both of them.
These are the rules of the game.
Secretary Dong and Uncle Liao taught him a lot.
Lu Ping'an didn't feel inferior.
This is the first time, and when the cooperation is successful, it will be completely easy next time.
Society is like this, if you play around, you can play bigger and bigger.
That's how the movie came over, and now except for a few people, who wouldn't give him a little thin noodles?
On the second day, Lu Ping'an went to the capital together.
After briefly watching the first three episodes, the director of buying the film said some advantages and disadvantages, which are decent and professional, and it doesn't sound like they can buy it.
In the end, the conversation changed, our bid was not high, at most 20,000, and the time schedule could not be so good.
It's comfortable to do business with these people, and the money isn't their own anyway.
However, Lu Ping'an still said: "Let's change a better time period, the money can be less, we can make a bet, and give as many ratings as you exceed, if it falls below the lower limit, you can withdraw at any time, how about it." β
The ratings of "Goddess Dragon" will explode, and if you can, you will naturally maximize your benefits.
But the other party feels that Lu Ping'an is giving face to each other, after all, this drama, 20,000 will indeed be a bit high, and if the ratings are low, it will be more troublesome for everyone if they are not withdrawn.
So if the low price is lower, there can also be withdrawal insurance, so that everyone is better.
In terms of interests, it will not have much impact, TV stations buy TV dramas, and the income is patch advertising and TV station advertising.
The higher the ratings, the higher the advertising fee before the TV broadcast, which is something that the film company can't earn.
So bets can be made.
Then things were quickly settled.
The first round is still 20,000 episodes, and the ladder ratings bet can reach up to 100,000 episodes, but it is basically impossible to achieve it.
Patch advertising is divided into four or six, up to three or seven, and the film side is 7.
It is scheduled for July, at 8 p.m. during the summer vacation.
Unless Deputy Director Li is taken down, the matter will be finalized.
Lu Ping'an calculated, if it is calculated according to 80,000 episodes, it can earn 3.6 million, and in the next many rounds of broadcasting, according to the spread of "Goddess Dragon", this wave of stars will probably have to earn a lot.
And the roll is also a big profit.
The film is a big hit, and there are no ten or eight ads at the end of the film?
And every episode is different, and there are so many ways to do it.
Not bad!
After the end, Lu Ping'an and the director of the film purchase had another meal and sent some tea.
After the end, Lu Ping'an went to the airport to see Li Peng, Li Peng held Lu Ping'an's hand and thanked him again and again, and finally said: "Don't worry, Lu Dao, I believe that this film will definitely receive what everyone likes, and you will never be disappointed, and your girlfriend will definitely be popular." β
Lu Ping'an: "... Don't advertise it. β
Li Peng: "Don't worry, I understand everything." β
