MTL - I Became An Ace Broker-Chapter 249 Bent intestines
This time the meeting was also rather hasty, and there were only a few of them, so Xu Hui didn't throw a big feast, but made some simple and expensive dishes in the teahouse, and the four of them sat together chatting and drinking.
Compared with the banquet, Yin Xiaozhong seems to prefer this style of small gatherings, leisurely and elegant, and the whole atmosphere is also very relaxed.
"Mr. Yin, next year, we at Qiyiai will vigorously expand in the field of online dramas and major online movies. The board of directors has given us the task of fifteen online dramas and ten major online movies a year. This task is for me. It is very difficult, so the cooperation between our two companies will definitely become closer and closer in the future." Xu Hui doesn't drink very well, and after drinking a little, he looks a little tipsy.
"Mr. Xu, you also know that the competition in video platforms is very fierce now. Any studio or film and television company releases a work, and these platforms are scrambling to buy it, and the price is not low." I understand that before she came into contact with Qiyiai, she actually had contact with several large video platforms.
Hearing what Sister Fei said, Xu Hui curled his lips, "Video platforms have just risen, and now all kinds of capital are burning money to grab the market. How to grab the market is to grab good dramas and big dramas, but this is not a long-term solution. An episode of a drama can be sold for five to six million yuan, and the purchase of the exclusive broadcasting rights of a drama will cost hundreds of millions. This kind of thing was normal in the first two years, but the latter, the capital market later The money coming in is slow, and everyone can no longer afford to buy dramas, so they can only take the road of self-produced dramas, and next year will definitely be a year of self-produced dramas.”
What Xu Hui said is very reasonable. In the past few years, the major video platforms have indeed experienced a war of burning money. In the past few years, some TV drama production studios have become fat and greedy. Hundreds of millions, and then sell it to the platform at a price of several hundred million, they are making a lot of money, and the video website can't bear it.
Several bigwigs on domestic video platforms are actually old acquaintances. In order to stop such vicious competition, they plan to make efforts on self-produced dramas next year, that is, the platform pays for itself or cooperates with a third party, which is relatively economical. The cost to produce a good drama, this kind of cooperation will get the broadcast copyright, and also get some sales benefits, this is the way for video sites to survive next year.
Of course Yin Xiaozhong understood Xu Hui's words, and said, "Actually, I have been paying attention to those video platforms for a while. There are still quite a lot of online dramas and TV dramas, but there are very few works with real quality. Now it is actually not a matter of quantity, but quality. Especially It is a high-quality script and high-quality finished product, and there are too few such works."
"Yes, it is for this reason that our tasks seem to be limited in quantity. In fact, what the board of directors requires is quality. If quantity is really required, and those shoddy films are also brought in, it will not only require such a quantity. That's a small amount." Xu Hui said in agreement.
"Mr. Xu can rest assured about this. You can see from our cooperation this time. From Mr. Yin's requirements for TV dramas, plus the cast of actors and the cost of capital invested, I think they are relatively conscientious companies in the industry. No matter what Everyone will demand quality." Fei Jie said.
Xu Hui nodded in understanding, and asked, "I heard that your company is shooting a TV series "Hey! Old Man" in the capital city. The production team is very strong. The producer is Zhao Baogang, and the director is Yang Yazhou, right?"
"Yes, that's the Spring Festival TV series entrusted by our company to invest in Jingducheng TV Station and Jincheng TV Station." Yin Xiaozhong replied.
"Did that drama talk about network licensing?" Xu Hui continued to ask.
Yin Xiaozhong didn't know about this point. After all, Zhao Baogang was in charge. He shook his head and said that he didn't know, "I'm not very clear about it. Brother Zhao is in charge."
Xu Hui rolled his eyes, "If you agree, how about we contact Zhao Baogang?"
"What? You still want to get the right to broadcast the show online?" Yin Xiaozhong asked.
"Of course, we can use it to broadcast after your Spring Festival show. Of course we can't wait for such a good drama." Xu Hui replied.
Yin Xiaozhong thought for a while, but still shook his head, "It's better for you not to talk to Zhao Baogang in my name. If you want to talk, you can talk about it yourself. I don't want to affect other people's plans and arrangements because of me."
Xu Hui originally planned to go to Zhao Baogang in the name of Yin Xiaozhong, so it would be easy to talk about it, but now that Yin Xiaozhong doesn't need them to talk in his name, it might be a bit difficult, because Xu Hui knows very well that Zhao Baogang is not with him. Penguin Video has a relatively close relationship with him. If he is in charge of selling the network broadcast rights, he will definitely sell it directly to Penguin Video.
Seeing that Xu Hui was silent and thinking about something, Sister Fei hurriedly added, "Our Mr. Yin is such a person. He doesn't want to interfere too much in other people's work. Since he has already hired him, he must fully trust them."
"I understand this, big people are basically like this." Xu Hui said flatteringly.
The four sat together and chatted for a while, before Xu Hui looked at Liang Jieying and said with a smile, "Miss Liang, congratulations on winning the Best Supporting Actress Award at the Golden Eagle TV Festival."
It had been a few days since this incident, Xu Hui only remembered to congratulate him at this time, the three of them knew that he must have other plans.
Liang Jieying nodded politely, "Mr. Xu is polite."
"Miss Liang, we have a self-produced drama, and the script has already been approved. I've been thinking about this just now, and I want to invite you to be the leading role." Xu Hui stated his purpose.
"Oh?" Liang Jieying didn't expect that the other party also had an invitation for a script.
Hearing what Xu Hui said, Sister Fei turned her head and glanced at Yin Xiaozhong, but said nothing.
Yin Xiaozhong naturally didn't say anything, just casually took a bite of food, and waited for Xu Hui's next content.
"We recently got a script that is a youth drama, you can read it when you have time." Xu Hui continued.
"Youth drama?" Liang Jieying actually wanted to shoot urban fashion youth dramas in her heart.
Sister Fei's head reacted very quickly, because she knew that Xu Hui's invitation to Liang Jieying on this occasion was actually to test Yin Xiaozhong's thoughts and wishes. If the intentions of both parties were strong, then as for the pay It's definitely easy to discuss, if the other party has no intention or is somewhat repulsive, then according to Liang Jieying's current fame and popularity ~www.novelbuddy.com~ the salary will definitely not be low.
"That's right, it's an urban youth drama." What Xu Hui said seemed simple, but in fact they were all carefully studied. He had carefully studied Liang Jieying's journey. She was not very old, and the first drama that made her famous was " Landing, Please Turn On" she played a popular character with a child in the middle, and then filmed "Ferry Soul", although she is a young man, but she is dealing with ugly ghosts and gods, and the following "Protect" is another one A drug addict, she has never participated in an urban youth idol drama, which is a pity for a rookie or a beautiful girl.
If she caters to her to talk about a drama, her salary can at least be reduced a lot, and she talks about a drama and invites the hottest female newcomer at a low price. This result not only eases the pressure on their funds, It can also produce a comparable web drama, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.
"Mr. Xu, Liang Jieying's salary is not low now." Sister Fei hurriedly reminded, because she could see that Liang Jieying was attracted by the words "youth drama". I thought to myself, this Xuhui City Mansion is quite deep, and it is so good at playing tricks.
Yin Xiaozhong also saw Xu Hui's crooked intestines, and felt a little disgusted in his heart. He prefers to deal with more straightforward people. It doesn't matter if you want to lower the salary. Now Xu Hui is going around like this, which makes him very disgusted.
