Chapter 313 The first broadcast rights of the TV series are sold, the lineup of "The Masked Singer" revival competition (please subscribe)

Zhou Yi listened to the opening song three times before starting to watch the first episode of "Welcome to the Window Together".

Others at Suning TV have no objections to this, because the song is really nice. If they don't need to inspect TV dramas, they are even willing to cycle the song as a single.

The main film begins.

In fact, Zhou Yi and others did not really have high expectations for this campus drama at first. The main reason is that Huayi also filmed a youth campus drama, and it is also the master of campus novels. The work of top screenwriter Xiao Xi has attracted a lot of popularity

Celebrities participated in the show, and the investment was as high as 150 million.

On Tianhai's side, not to mention all the actors are newcomers, the screenwriter is actually Wang Xuan, and the director is also Wang Xuan.

If they are convinced that Wang Xuan wrote lyrics and composed music, but what about Wang Xuan's writing and directing? Isn't this nonsense? Wang Xuan is not a professional screenwriter, and I have never heard that he studied directing. Can I watch the works he wrote and directed?

Even if you can barely watch it, do you expect this TV series to compete with the youth school dramas shot by Huayi?

So when they came here in the first place, they thought it was just a routine, just a formality. As a result, the opening song directly raised their expectations. The following feature film also lived up to their expectations, and was unexpectedly good-looking.

First of all, the actors' acting skills are good, and their lines are also quite humorous. For example, at the beginning, Zhong Bai said angrily: "From today on, Lu Qiaochuan's lecherousness will be tied for first place with you!"

Ren Yi subconsciously raised his voice and said: "How can he be so virtuous!" and coupled with a look of dissatisfaction, Zhou Yi and the others couldn't help but laugh. There was actually someone fighting for the title of "pervert".

.

Anyway, there are a lot of jokes and a lot of laughter. When several people watched the main film, the smiles on their faces never stopped and they almost stopped laughing.

Zhou Yi and others played it at double speed and watched several episodes in a row. They originally thought it was a complete comedy. However, after the military training was over, the scene where Lu Qiaochuan and others parted with the instructors, Lu Qiaochuan's monologue: "Fate is easy for us to take for granted. Parents

"Brothers, classmates, the fate with these people has been stretched indefinitely because of unforeseen circumstances, and there are still some people who are destined to end abruptly because of visible deadlines." It was accompanied by the instructor suppressing his emotions and humming "

"Les Misérables", and then caused the whole class to sing a chorus, which suddenly made Zhou Yi and others burst into tears.

Looking down, Zhou Yi and others really like this TV series more and more the more they watch it. It is said that whether it is a film or television work or a literary work, they all come from life. This TV series is undoubtedly the best among them. In the process of watching this TV series

, they can always see the shadow of themselves in some characters in the play, and they are often touched by a certain segment in the play.

After spending seven or eight hours, Zhou Yi and others finally finished watching the show at 2x speed.

"How about it? Let's vote." Zhou Yi asked.

"A very good youth campus drama. Although this drama does not have any big-name actors, I feel it will be a hit."

"I also think it will be a hit. Although the actors are not big names, their looks and acting skills are passable. The visuals and color palette are comparable to music videos and Korean dramas. They are really good."

"Let me tell you one thing, I think the characters of this drama are very good. There is no female villain who makes people hate each other as soon as it is released, and constantly creates obstacles for the hero and heroine to love each other; there is not so much love and deep sadomasochistic love;

There is no typical character configuration for youth dramas that is impeccably perfect or silly and sweet.

The characters in "Welcome to School Together" are all very three-dimensional and life-like. The characters in the drama all have their own characteristics, but they are close to life. The carefree Zhong Bai and the "scumbag" Ren Yifan are also heart-wrenching.

Ren Yifan; Xiao Haiyang, a sunny man who is bold and righteous; Li Shuci, who has a quiet personality, good grades, but is timid and does not like to be in the limelight; Yu Hao, who talks like a girl but has a high emotional intelligence; Bi Shisan, who knows everything; simple and true

Gu Yixin."

"What about the shortcomings? Are there any?" Zhou Yi asked.

"Yes! Lack of conflict and slow pace."

"Another point is that the polyamory in this show is a bit bloody. Li Shuci likes Xiao Haiyang, Xiao Haiyang likes Zhong Bai, Zhong Bai likes Lu Qiaochuan, Lu Qiaochuan likes Lin Luoxue, Lin Luoxue likes Bi Shisan, Bi

Shisan likes Gu Yixin, and Gu Yixin likes Pan Zhen."

"I also think it's quite bloody, but fortunately it's all done, so it's harmless."

"How do you think this drama compares with the youth campus dramas filmed by Huayi?" Zhou Yi asked again.

"It's hard to say, but I think it's worth a try."

"I also think I can give it a try. To be honest, the filming of this drama is really good, the rhythm is joyful, there are a lot of laughs, and occasionally it will make you cry twice."

"Yes, at the end of the New Year, Ren Yifan was homeless and wandering on the street. Zhong Bai and Lu Qiaochuan set off fireworks for him. The scene where Ren Yifan said with tears that I have a family really made me burst into tears."

To be honest, before this, I disliked Ren Yifan very much because I felt he was too scumbag."

After some exchanges, Zhou Yi and others unified their opinions.

Then Zhou Yi came outside Wang Xuan's office and asked Wang Xuan's assistant to inform Wang Xuan.

In normal times, when it comes to film and television-related cooperation, it must be the person in charge of the film and television department to discuss it. However, the person in charge of Tianhai's film and television department is still vacant for the time being, and Zhu Xu is not in Tianhai, so Wang Xuan has to discuss this matter in person.

"Mr. Wang, we have watched the TV series "Born Together". Mr. Wang is a great talent and the filming is really good. I won't beat around the bush with you. I personally am very optimistic about the potential of this TV series, so I would like to hear from Wang

I always have a quote for the drama "Born Together"." Zhou Yi got straight to the point.

"Which offer is Minister Zhou referring to? Do you plan to directly buy out the broadcast rights of "Welcome to Schools Together", or do you plan to buy the first broadcast rights or second-round broadcast rights of "Welcome to Schools Together"?"

"What's the buyout price, and what's the price for the first broadcast rights? As for the second-round broadcast rights, we are definitely not interested. Suning TV is one of the five major TV stations, so if we buy a TV series and also buy the second-round broadcast rights, we can't afford to lose this

People." Zhou Yidao.

"The buyout price is a bit high. I will definitely sell it to others for 3 million per episode. For Mr. Su's sake, I can give you a 20% discount, 2.4 million per episode. As for the first broadcast rights, I estimate that others will sell it for 1.2 million.

/episode, for the sake of Mr. Su, I will give you 1 million per episode." Wang Xuan said.

"." The price offered by Wang Xuan left Zhou Yi speechless. Isn't it too expensive? He had heard that the investment in "Staying Together" was not large.

In fact, if you think about it, you will know that the investment in "Welcome Together" is a big deal. It is a "Three Nos" film and television drama. Of course, Zhou Yi definitely can't say this, because if he says it, he will offend people.

"Mr. Wang, isn't the price a bit high?" Zhou Yi said tactfully.

"It's not high, I really don't think it's high. I've heard of the youth campus drama filmed by Huayi. The first-run price sold to Yanjing Satellite TV is 1.5 million/episode, right? I'll give you Suning TV's first-run price of 1 million/episode.

I’m really feeling low.”

"How can it be the same? The TV series produced by Huayi hired several popular stars and invested 150 million. The converted cost of a single episode reached 6 million per episode. It is certainly not expensive to sell the first broadcast rights for 1.5 million per episode.

But how much did you invest in this TV series?" Zhou Yi thought to himself.

Of course, you must not say this. If you say it, you will offend others. Su Yichang gave many warnings before coming here, and he must not offend Wang Xuan. There is no justice in business.

"Mr. Wang, we are very sincere. If not, for 800,000 per episode, we want the premiere rights of "Welcome to the Same School"," said Zhou Yida.

Wang Xuan shook his head: "Mr. Zhou, I'm not going to hide it from you. The prices I give you are all sincere prices for Mr. Su's sake. They can't be any less. If you can't make the decision, you can talk to Mr. Su."

Let’s discuss it. Even if the cooperation fails in the end, it will not affect the relationship between Mr. Su and I."

Seeing that Wang Xuan was resolute and serious, Zhou Yi said, "Okay, let me ask Mr. Su what he wants. Excuse me, can I go out and make a phone call?"

"Please."

Zhou Yi came to the conference room again and dialed Su Yichang's phone number. Su Yichang's voice soon came from the other side: "How is it? Minister Zhou, have you finished the inspection of Tianhai's TV series?"

"After the review, it's a very good TV series. The team agreed that we can give it a try, that's it."

"how?"

"It's just that the price offered by Teacher Wang Xuan is a bit high. The buyout price is 2.4 million per episode, and the initial broadcast price is 1 million per episode. He said that this price is just for your sake, and it won't be any less."

"There is no need to buy out, just get the first broadcast rights of that TV series." Su Yichang said.

"Ah? What do you mean, you want to directly buy the premiere rights of "Born Together" for 1 million per episode?"

"Yes, the price of 1 million per episode is indeed a bit high, but based on my understanding of Wang Xuan, he is not a random person, and he will not set the price casually. The price he set out proves that in his eyes, this film

The TV series is definitely worth the price. And the price he said he gave me for my sake is probably true. If other people want to buy this TV series from him, they probably won't pay this price.

So there is no need to hesitate, just get the first broadcast rights of this TV series. In fact, if I were not afraid that the director would not agree, I would have bought this TV series directly." Su Yichang said.

"clear."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yi came to Wang Xuan's office again and said that Suning TV agreed to buy the premiere broadcast rights of "Born Together" at a price of 1 million per episode, and the two parties signed a contract.

The contract comes into force.

The first broadcast rights of "Welcome to School Together" were sold in this way. The price of 1 million per episode is not high, but it is not low either. If you take into account the cost of filming "We Went to School Together", it is considered a high price.

.

After all, the shooting cost of "Born Together" is less than 600,000 yuan/episode.

And don’t forget, 1 million/episode only sells the first broadcast rights, and many more broadcast rights can be sold later, such as second-round broadcast rights, third-round broadcast rights, and network broadcast rights, which add up to the bulk.

Anyway, with the first broadcast rights being sold for 1 million per episode, it is no surprise that "Welcome to School Together" should have no problem earning 70 to 80 million, and may even exceed 100 million.

A TV series that costs less than 600,000 yuan per episode and sells the first broadcast rights of 1 million yuan per episode is definitely a good start for the reorganized Tianhai. Therefore, Zhu Xu and others were very happy when they heard the news and praised Wang Xuan for it.

ability.

Wang Xuan smiled. In fact, he was telling the truth. He did give Suning TV the first broadcast rights of 1 million/episode out of Su Yichang's face. If it had been anyone else, it would have been impossible without 1.2 million/episode.

Others can't be sure whether "Born Together" will be a hit, but Wang Xuan can be sure, so he will definitely not sell this TV series at a low price. Even if the first broadcast rights cannot be sold, it will be fine. The worst is to choose an online video platform to play it, and leave

Advertising sharing model.

If this TV series adopts the advertising sharing model, it will definitely make a lot of money.

After the first broadcast rights were sold, Zhu Xu took the sample film of "Staying Together" to contact other TV stations and online video platforms to discuss cooperation.

Weng Yong is Weng Qiuping's son. Naturally, he can't always stay with Wang Xuan as an assistant without any trouble. Wang Xuan lets Weng Yong stay with Zhu Xu, just to train him.

Among all the people Wang Xuan has met, Zhu Xu's business ability cannot be said to be the strongest, but at least he is top-notch. As long as Weng Yong is determined, he can definitely learn a lot from following Zhu Xu.

The "King of Masked Singer" revival is coming soon.
