Chapter 420: Cooperation to Each Takes What He Needs
Under the leadership of Xu Qin, Mushanhe Light Car Jian came to Huashi, which has not yet repaired the trouser hairpin. For his arrival, the leaders of China Television naturally attach great importance to it. Anyone with access knows that this is a real media and entertainment tycoon.
With the completion of the establishment of Asia Entertainment Media Group, people who pay attention to the entertainment industry in Xiangcheng know who the real big boss behind this group is. As the largest and most well-known TV station in China, China Television has a shelf, but it also has people.
Especially when many leaders know that Asia Entertainment has obtained the pilot license of the above leaders, and after the first private film and television company can be established in China, many people know that domestic film and television entertainment may usher in new changes.
Compared with all the Taiwan leaders who are dressed very formally, Mu Shanhe is dressed very casually. If he walks on the road, I'm afraid no one will believe that he is the young rich man who is quite well-known in Xiangcheng and is said to be worth tens of billions.
But even so, the leaders who knew his identity did not dare to slack off. In addition, a group of high-level ATV executives visited before and donated several cameras to China Television free of charge, which made all the directors in the station happy.
Although high-end cameras can be purchased as long as you have money, at present, you must apply for foreign exchange if you want to buy real high-end cameras. Compared with the purchase of energy and machinery and equipment urgently needed by those countries, Huashi wants to apply for foreign exchange to buy cameras, and the results can be imagined.
Under the guidance of Taiwan leaders, Mu Shanhe visited the production center of China Television. Even the news center, which he usually sees, he visited with great interest. After reading it, he also felt that the facilities of China Television were quite backward.
Standing outside the news center, Mu Shanhe said with emotion: "I used to just sit in front of the TV and watch the continuous broadcast on time at seven o'clock every night. Today I finally had the opportunity to see the place where the host really broadcasts the news, which feels quite peculiar. ”
"Does Wu Dong often watch our news broadcasts?"
"That's nature! In my opinion, no matter what industry you are in, you can learn a lot from spending half an hour a day watching your evening news broadcasts. In China, as long as I have time, I must see it almost every day. ”
In fact, this habit was also developed by him in his previous life, under the compulsion of the old man. Like the old man, there are many old leaders who have this habit. Because of the news broadcast, it often reports on some things related to national policies.
It is said that 'the prophet of Chunjiang plumbing duck', and the issuance and promotion of many policies can actually see a hint in the news broadcast. It's just that people who watch the news need to have certain news channels and analytical skills.
At present, ATV's seven-o'clock evening news is also a news broadcast program that was forced to be broadcast after Mu Shanhe became the owner. At first, many citizens thought it was nothing to look forward to, but now there are many people watching the 7 o'clock evening news.
The reason for this is also because in this news broadcast, many citizens can know about the national events that involve Xiangcheng and what happens outside Xiangcheng. To be precise, the news of major events collected abroad will be reported in this news.
Although there were concerns earlier that Mu Shanhe, which has a full stake in ATV, may build the TV station into a TV station that is completely inclined to the mainland. But now that many people are paying attention, they find that this does not seem to be the case.
The only difference is that ATV rarely reports news that denigrates or disparages the mainland. At this point, even the most famous wireless at the moment does not seem to be able to sit down. Although journalism should be neutral, many people know that it is quite difficult to do this.
After visiting the production center of China Television, Mu Shanhe also saw a lot of familiar figures, and even shook hands with some well-known hosts, which made these hosts quite excited and felt that Mu Shanhe was very cordial.
For example, the male host who can often be seen in news broadcasts, every time he sees him, Mu Shanhe will think of the sentence 'Spring is coming, everything is recovering, and it is the season for animals to breed', and I feel kind when I see it.
On the other hand, before the rebirth, those well-known program hosts didn't know that they were still playing with mud there!
Arriving at the conference room of China Television, Mu Shanhe also met several directors hired by China Television. Considering the filming of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the actors recruited and the scale of filming, it is normal to hire several more directors to co-direct.
After shaking hands with these directors, the leaders of China Television also briefly explained the difficulties of filming the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. After listening to it, Mu Shanhe also said directly: "Director Wang, how many episodes are you currently planning to shoot this drama?" ”
"If the funds allow, we plan to make a long drama, with about 80 to 100 episodes."
"Have you budgeted for it? As far as I know, if you want to shoot a truly classic Romance of the Three Kingdoms, many of the big scenes mentioned in the romance, I'm afraid you will also have to shoot it, right? For example, the Battle of Chibi, if you want to shoot the scene in the book, the money is like running water! ”
"Yes, Wu Dong! Aside from the funds for building some filming locations, the shooting funds alone may be as high as tens of millions or even more than 100 million. Just the costumes and props, I'm afraid there will be no shortage of preparations. ”
Looking at the director with a bitter expression, as well as the leader of the station who also had a complicated expression, Mu Shanhe still smiled and said: "Chen Tai, then can I take the liberty of asking, how much shooting funds have you prepared?" ”
"Fifty million have been raised so far! Moreover, these funds will also be allocated in batches. Wu Dong also knows that although we are the largest TV station in China, if we can allocate funds for filming, we also need to apply for and approve them every time. ”
"Fifty million? Then your funding gap is even bigger than I thought! ”
"Yes! Earlier, when Mr. Zhou of your company came to inspect, we also wanted to see if there could be opportunities for cooperation. After all, the four famous novels are our classic literary works, and it would be a pleasure if they could be put on the screen! ”
"That's true! So be it! Our group has just built a film and television city in the South China Sea on the side of the Special Economic Zone, with an investment scale of about 100 million US dollars. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms must have involved some ancient cities.
There are also many experts and scholars in the area of ancient architecture in China, and several directors are also experts in this area. If you don't mind, some of the buildings needed in the play can be built directly in the studio.
The second is the costumes and props needed for filming, which can actually be reused. Our group can also fund the construction of this piece of funds. But costumes and props also belong to our group in the end.
The rest involves the funds required for filming, and our group can also provide it, but we want the overseas broadcast rights of this drama. Although I am the chairman, it can involve tens of millions of capital transfers, and I can't say it in a word. ”
"It's nature! Wu Dong, let's talk about cooperation? ”
Knowing that Mu Shanhe could solve the rest of the filming funds, and even the shooting base could help solve it, the station leaders and several directors were naturally happy. As for the sale of overseas copyrights, they don't think they can sell tens of millions, right?
Compared with making money by selling film and television copyrights, they actually care more about filming this drama. As far as Taiwan leaders are concerned, it is not a political achievement to be able to enrich the cultural life of the audience?
For the co-directed directors, it is also an honor to be able to shoot classic masterpieces!
