However, considering that the filming of "Strategy of Yanxi Palace" has just started and there is still a long time before the filming is completed, there is no rush to discuss the results at this time.
Therefore, the people at Beijing TV Station were not in a hurry and decided to discuss it for a few more days to come up with the best plan. However, they did not know that Jianjiang TV Station had already begun to take action.
Soon the time agreed between Gao Mang and Zhao Guangyao came the next day, and Gao Mang had already been waiting for Zhao Guangyao's arrival in the office.
"Mr. Gao, Director Zhao Guangyao from Jianjiang TV Station is here."
"Please come in quickly."
As the assistant informed, Gao Mang quickly stood up and prepared to greet Zhao Guangyao.
Zhao Guangyao was brought into the office by his assistant, and Gao Mang was already standing at the door.
"Hello, Mr. Gao, it's our first time meeting you. I don't know what Mr. Gao likes, so I brought some tea here."
As expected, Zhao Guangyao was holding a box of beautifully packaged tea in his hand, which looked like it was full of money. Gao Mang quickly greeted it and thanked him repeatedly.
"Director Zhao is so thoughtful. I don't even know how to thank Director Zhao. Come on, please take a seat first."
After inviting Zhao Guangyao to sit down, Gao Mang asked his assistant to go down and make tea. After the assistant left, Zhao Guangyao took the initiative to talk about the purpose of his visit.
"Presumably Mr. Gao should know something about it. I am here at Beimang Entertainment on behalf of Jianjiang TV Station. I want to talk to Mr. Gao about the premiere of "Strategy of Yanxi Palace"."
"Of course, please tell me, Director Zhao."
"Mr. Gao, we missed the opportunity to collaborate on "Legend of Sword and Fairy" and "Nirvana in Fire" twice before due to some reasons. This time our director heard about the news that Beimang Entertainment was going to film "Story of Yanxi Palace"
After that, he told me to promote this cooperation. I have already missed it twice and cannot miss it a third time. This time, for "Story of Yanxi Palace", our Jianjiang TV station is willing to pay 50 million in first-broadcast copyright fees.
"
"I know the sincerity of Jianjiang TV Station, but this time "Story of Yanxi Palace" has just been filmed. Without the guarantee of seeing the finished film, are you still willing to sign "Story of Yanxi Palace"?"
Seeing that Zhao Guangyao was not playing catch-up, Gao Mang got straight to the point.
After hearing Gao Mang's words, Zhao Guangyao smiled and waved his hand.
"Mr. Gao, the entire industry has now recognized the strength of Beimang Entertainment. We have this trust in the TV series produced by Beimang."
Judging from the current situation, Jianjiang TV Station has really offered very good conditions, and this kind of conditions cannot be given by just any TV station, and Zhao Guangyao's attitude is also very respectful, no matter whether it is the children he brought with him when he came.
The gift or the tone of the entire conversation.
But Gao Mang is still a little undecided. After all, he has cooperated with Beijing TV Station twice in a row. Even after the filming plan for "Story of Yanxi Palace" was finalized this time, Gao Mang subconsciously thought that he would continue to cooperate with Beijing TV Station.
It's just that everyone from Jianjiang TV Station has arrived at their offices, but there is still no movement from Jingcheng TV Station.
"Mr. Gao, what do you think?"
Listening to Zhao Guangyao's voice, Gao Mang came back from his thoughts.
It's just that Gao Mang still doesn't know what is the most appropriate choice for him. Zhao Guangyao can also see Gao Mang's hesitation, so he speaks.
"It's okay. If Mr. Gao feels that he still needs to think about it, our Jianjiang TV station can wait. You can also contact me after Mr. Gao has thought it through. I will be waiting in Beijing during this period of time. I welcome Mr. Gao to contact me at any time."
Zhao Guangyao's very gentlemanly concession made Gao Mang feel warm in his heart.
"Then thank you, Director Zhao. I will definitely contact you after I think about it."
After the two exchanged a few more polite words, Zhao Guangyao left Beimang Entertainment.
Gao Mang also decided to give Jingcheng TV a deadline. If there was still no movement from Jingcheng TV within three days, she would decide to sign a contract with Jianjiang TV.
…
Three days passed so quickly that it only took a blink of an eye. The Beijing TV station still had no contact with Gao Mang during these three days. Gao Mang had also decided to sign "Story of Yanxi Palace"
Give it to Jianjiang TV Station.
Gao Mang called Zhao Guangyao and the two signed a contract.
After signing the contract, Zhao Guangyao reported the news to the director of Jianjiang TV Station. The director then let go of his worries. He was afraid that this time "Strategy of Yanxi Palace" would be delayed again due to messy things.
, but fortunately the result did not disappoint him.
The director is sitting in his office. Although "Story of Yanxi Palace" has been scheduled to be broadcast on Jianjiang TV Station, the director is beginning to worry about the ratings issue.
After all, palace fighting dramas have become so common nowadays, and most of them are the same routines performed over and over again, so the audience is too lazy to watch any more.
This time, Jianjiang TV spent a total of 50 million to sign the contract for "Story of Yanxi Palace". The director paid more attention to "Story of Yanxi Palace" than any other TV series. I don't know what the final ratings of "Story of Yanxi Palace" surprised him.
Still disappointed.
Zhao Guangyao from Jianjiang TV Station has returned with a signed contract, but everyone at Beijing TV Station is still hesitating whether to sign "Story of Yanxi Palace" and how much money should be spent to sign the contract.
"Director Liu, Director Zhang told everyone that there will be a meeting in the afternoon."
Liu Jinyu was sitting in the office. When his assistant told him that he was going to have a meeting, he frowned a little irritably.
"Did Director Zhang say what the meeting was about?"
"I heard that we still need to discuss matters related to "The Story of Yanxi Palace"..."
When Liu Jinyu heard the words "Story of Yanxi Palace", they were as big as two. Recently, I don't know how many meetings have been held just because of "Strategy of Yanxi Palace", but they still couldn't discuss it.
Liu Jinyu was tired of the results.
After the assistant left, Liu Jinyu decided to test Gao Mang's tone first, so that he could know what kind of palace drama "Story of Yanxi Palace" was, and at the same time, he could give the most suitable price.
Thinking of this, Liu Jinyu dialed Gao Mang's phone number.
Gao Mang was a little emotional when he saw the caller ID was Liu Jinyu. It happened to be the first day after he signed a contract with Jianjiang TV Station that Liu Jinyu started to contact him. What a coincidence.
"Hello, Director Liu."
"Hello, Mr. Gao."
Before Gao Mang could speak again, Liu Jinyu spoke first.
"Actually, I called because I wanted to discuss Beimang's new drama "Story of Yanxi Palace" with Mr. Gao. As you know, we have collaborated twice..."
"Sorry, Director Liu, the first broadcast rights of "Story of Yanxi Palace" have been sold to Jianjiang TV Station."
Gao Mang directly interrupted Liu Jinyu's words and told the truth straightforwardly.
"Uh... when did it happen?"
"I also treat you as a friend, director, and that's why I said these things. Just a few days ago when we signed the contract, Director Zhao from Jianjiang TV came to the capital specially and offered 50 million in first-broadcast copyright fees, so..."
"Fifty million?"
"That's right."
Liu Jinyu was indeed shocked by this number. After all, during the meeting at Beijing TV Station, they were still discussing whether 20 million or 30 million was appropriate.
After saying a few words, Liu Jinyu hung up the phone on the pretext of work.
When it was time for the meeting, Liu Jinyu walked into the conference room with a suspicious mood.
When people from Beijing TV Station gathered in the conference room, the discussion was still on the original topic, whether to sign "Story of Yanxi Palace" and how much of the first-broadcast copyright fee would be appropriate.
Seeing everyone still having a heated discussion over whether 30 million or 35 million is more appropriate for the first broadcast copyright fee, Liu Jinyu only felt ironic.
At the same time, Liu Jinyu also felt that he had an obligation to tell everyone about the purchase of "Story of Yanxi Palace" by Jianjiang TV Station.
