Chapter 311 A bumper harvest in May

When a TV series is submitted for review, the results will generally be available within 50 working days. Of course, this does not mean that it must take 50 working days. The review results may be announced in advance, because the time for organizing expert review is actually only 30 days.

50 working days is only the maximum period.

But if the review does not pass, it will be called back, and it will be revised and resubmitted for review, and it will take another 50 working days to review. If it still fails, it will be called back, and it will be revised and resubmitted for review, and it will still take 50 working days to review.

As a result, some TV series may not be released for a year after filming is completed.

Zhu Xu took Weng Yong to submit a sample of "Welcome to Window Together" for review. Here Wang Xuan received a call from Zhang Zheng, the program team of "The King of Masked Singer": "Good morning, Teacher Wang Xuan, I didn't bother you.

You?"

"By the way, Brother Zheng's phone call was never interrupted. I haven't even thanked Suning TV for giving the green light to my family Qiqi." Wang Xuan said with a smile.

"No, I can't bear this thank you. To be honest, we should be grateful to Miss Chen Xueqi. The TV Spring Festival Gala ratings of 12.1 are unprecedented, and it is estimated that there will be no others in the future."

"Okay, let's stop being polite. Brother Zheng, is there something wrong?"

"Actually, it's nothing. Didn't I tell you before that we will plan the revival contest of "The King of Masked Singer" next month? The plan for the revival contest has been planned and is scheduled for the 12th of next month. You should be free to come and participate, right?

"

"No problem, I'll definitely be free."

"Aren't I afraid that you have to make a TV series and have no time? I know that you are also the director of "Welcome to the School Together"."

"The TV series has been filmed a long time ago, and the finished film has been produced and submitted for review."

"Ah? Isn't that right? The film has even been made, but I haven't seen you promoting it?"

"It is true that the finished film has not been publicized. After all, the review results have not yet come out. What if it is publicized and fails to pass the review? But there must be publicity for the TV series when it is finished. I guess you didn't pay attention."

"Okay, I just took a look, and it's true. Speaking of Teacher Wang Xuan, you are really versatile. You can write lyrics, compose music, play screenplay, sing, act, and direct. I really don't know what else you can do."

"It's just that I have a lot of hobbies." Wang Xuan said modestly.

"If this is still your hobby, how can you make other people feel embarrassed?" Zhang Zheng laughed, and suddenly his heart moved, "By the way, have you agreed on a cooperative broadcast platform for this TV series?"

"No, what? Does Suning TV want this TV series?"

"I definitely have the intention, but now I'm only in charge of the entertainment channel and can't make the decision on the TV series. I'll mention it to Mr. Su later to see what he means."

"Okay. Thank you first, Brother Zheng."

In fact, many TV dramas have already negotiated a broadcast platform before filming. For example, Huayi's current film "Hello, Youth" has negotiated with Yanjing Satellite TV before filming, and the premiere will be on Yanjing Satellite TV.

The first broadcast rights are quite expensive, 1.5 million per episode.

Of course, it is expensive. After Yanjing Satellite TV bought the first broadcast rights of "Hello, Youth", Huayi can sell the second-round broadcast rights to other TV stations or online video platforms, but other platforms cannot broadcast this TV series.

The time is at least one week behind Yanjing Satellite TV.

Compared with the first-round broadcast rights, the second-round broadcast rights are actually the big one, because there is only one first-round broadcast right, but there can be four or five second-round broadcast rights. Even if a second-round broadcast right is sold for 400,000/episode, the total income can be

It’s on par with the first broadcast rights.

However, Huayi has not sold the second-round broadcast rights of "Hello, Youth" yet. We have talked to two or three TV stations before, and they all expressed interest in their TV series, but the price offered is a bit conservative.

, actually the price was only 500,000/episode.

This price is far lower than Huayi's psychological price. Their bottom line for the second round of broadcast rights is 700,000/episode, and they will strive for 800,000/episode. After all, they also have to make money.

How does a producer make money after filming a TV series? There are generally three ways.

The first is to sell broadcast rights, which is to sell the broadcast rights of filmed TV series to major TV stations and online video platforms.

The second type is advertiser sponsorship. Many TV series will attract sponsors before filming. The sponsor will give money, and the crew will include the sponsor's product advertisements during filming. For example, if Yibao Mineral Water sponsors a certain TV series, then

During the filming of the TV series, the water that all the characters drink will be Yibao. This is sponsored by advertisers.

The third type is advertising revenue. Advertising revenue and advertiser sponsorship are different. Advertising revenue is the revenue from advertising during broadcast, while advertiser sponsorship is the integration of advertising during filming.

Among these three channels, the revenue from selling broadcast rights is the largest. The filming cost of "Hello, Youth" is 150 million. When converted, it costs a full 6 million per episode. The price of the second round of broadcast rights is not much higher.

, what do you do to make money?

Moreover, if the second round of broadcast rights is not sold at a high price, the price of the third round of broadcast rights will be lower. For example, if they sell the second round of broadcast rights for 500,000/episode, then the third round of broadcast rights will only cost at most

It can sell 250,000 yuan/episode, but if the second-round broadcast rights are sold for 800,000 yuan/episode, the third-round broadcast rights can be sold for at least 400,000 yuan/episode. The difference is very big.

In addition, if the price of the second-round broadcast rights is too low, it will easily cause dissatisfaction on Yanjing Satellite TV. After all, I bought the first broadcast rights for 1.5 million/episode, but you only bought 500,000/episode for the second-round broadcast rights, so you have to pay me

What do you think you are? A scapegoat or a fool?

Anyway, Huayi is very confident in this "Hello, Youth". They feel that after this TV series is broadcast on Yanjing Satellite TV, it will definitely become a hit. By then, their second-round broadcast rights will not matter.

It’s 700,000 per episode, and it’s possible to sell it for 900,000.

Coincidentally, "Hello, Youth" was not only finished at almost the same time as "Born Together", they were also produced almost at the same time and submitted for review at the same time. If nothing else happens, these two TV series are probably going to be very popular.

Hit the earth.

It is worth mentioning that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" serialized by Wang Xuan on the Shengshi Chinese website was completed in early May after several months of serialization. In fact, this novel only has 700,000 to 800,000 words.

, if Shengshi Chinese website hadn’t been pressing on updating the word count, the book would have been finished long ago.

The results are also outstanding.

When "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was completed, the total number of orders was 150,000, and there were about 700 alliance leaders. Although it was not as high as "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", it was still much higher than other novels.

Similarly, when the novel was serialized, the publishing rights of "Legend of the Condor Heroes" had already been sold. There were still many people who wanted the film and television rights of "Legend of the Condor Heroes", and the prices offered were still very high, breaking the

It's a pity that when Shengshi Chinese Network contacted Luo Qiu, the result was still that other copyrights could be negotiated casually, but the film and television rights would not be sold.

In this regard, Shengshi Chinese Network is also very helpless. They naturally hope that Luoqiu will sell the film and television rights. After all, selling the copyright at such a high price will bring great benefits to Shengshi Chinese Network. The benefit here is not money, but reputation.

, is the advertising effect.

But Luoqiu was unwilling to sell, and Shengshi Chinese Network did not dare to force Luoqiu.

"Dragon" plus "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" are enough to establish Luo Qiu's status in the Internet literary world. Now Luo Qiu can be said to be the number one person in the Internet literary world. He has also become a prosperous Chinese novel.

The golden signboard of the Internet.

The data operation department of Shengshi Chinese Network has specially calculated that during the series of "Legend of the Condor Heroes" in Luoqiu, it brought at least 200,000 new users to Shengshi Chinese Network. Of course, it is impossible for all of these new users to be paying users, but as long as there are

If half of the users are converted into paying users, Shengshi Chinese Network will make a lot of money.

Shengshi Chinese Network also expects Luoqiu to attract more new users to them, so how can it be in trouble with Luoqiu?

The brighter Wang Xuan's reputation is, the more valuable the copyright of his works is. In fact, as early as the middle period of the serialization of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", the animation copyright and game copyright of Wang Xuan's other work "Dragon Babu" were

Already sold.

The animation copyright was sold for 8 million yuan, and the game copyright was sold for 7 million yuan. Very good prices. After all, "Dragon Babu" is not a novel, with a length of about 1.2 million yuan, and it was made into animation and games, and there are not many plot copies.

Ziya also told Wang Xuan that some animation companies have expressed interest in the animation copyright of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and are currently negotiating with the copyright department of Shengshi Chinese Network.

Wang Xuan doesn't care about this. Anyway, his purpose of publishing these novels is to pave the way for film and television. He only needs the film and television rights, and other copyrights can be handed over to Shengshi Chinese Network for operation.

"By the way, Mr. Luoqiu, have you decided what to write in your next novel? Your fans have been asking you when you will publish a new book." Editor-in-Chief Ziya asked.

Yes, now that Ziya has been promoted to editor-in-chief, who discovered Luo Qiu?

At the beginning, many old editors were not optimistic about Luo Qiu's "The Eight Parts of the Dragon" and even tried to persuade Ziya, but it was Ziya who insisted on signing the book. So the credit for discovering Luo Qiu naturally fell on her.

Indeed, many readers are asking when Wang Xuan's new book will be released, and even his general alliance is asking about Wang Xuan's new book. The main reason is that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is too short. Although it is exciting, it still leaves much to be desired.

Wang Xuan also knew about this situation. After thinking about it, he said: "July 1st. The theme is still martial arts. It can be regarded as the second part of "The Condor Shooting"."

"Ah? Is the story of "The Condor Shooting" not over yet? Is there a sequel?" Ziya said in surprise.

"You can finish it, or you can finish it, because the plot of the story to be written next is related to "The Condor Shooting" in terms of plot."

"Understood."

Soon, Shengshi Chinese Network promoted Wang Xuan's new book on the headlines of the website: Big news, Shengshi Chinese Network's platinum writer Luo Qiu's new book will be released on July 1st. The new book is the sequel to "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". Respectfully

Please look forward to."

Tsk! Shengshi Chinese website actually used the website headline to promote Wang Xuan's new book a month in advance, which made many authors extremely envious.

Apart from envy, they can't even think of jealousy. Who makes Luo Qiu's achievements so brilliant? Two novels with more than 150,000 orders each. They may not be able to write it in this life.

Many readers were speechless.

"Bah, bah, bah, I thought Luo Qiu's new book would be released next month, but you tell me, you still have to wait a month?"

"What are you doing? Announced a month in advance? Are the management of Shengshi Chinese Network stupid?"

"Haha! Shengshi Chinese Network is not stupid. This is Luoqiu's Pai Noodles. Do you understand Pai Noodles?"

"I didn't say that Luo Qiu didn't have such a schedule, I meant that it was announced too early. It would be okay if we didn't know when Luo Qiu's new book would be released, but if we knew the exact date, wouldn't it make our days feel like years? A

It’s the next month, it’s going to be hard, isn’t it?”

"That's right. Luo Qiu is so awesome. The novel is so wonderfully written."

"The new book is actually the sequel to "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", I'm really looking forward to it. "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is so well written. I used to regret that the novel was too short, but I didn't expect that there would be a sequel. Now there is one.

Looking forward to it.”

"Who doesn't? The thought of actually seeing the sequel to "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" makes me excited. It's a pity that I can't watch it until a month later. Oh my god, please hurry up."
