Chapter 317 Negotiation with Tomato Station! (Fourth change, add 5 for "RDS third brother")

Eight in the morning.

Lin Xuan had already arrived at Tomato Terrace, and led by Lu Juan into a spacious conference room.

In the conference room, several executives from Tomato Station were already sitting.

First place: Chen Honghui, vice president of Tomato Channel.

Second place: Liang Meichen, Director of Tomato Channel.

Third place: Zhao Lei, director of the TV drama column of Tomato TV.

Fourth place: Lin Xuan's old acquaintance Liu Min.

The four of them sat upright in suits and leather shoes.Let the meeting room exude a dignified atmosphere virtually.Besides Zhao Lei, Lin Xuan had already met Liang Meichen and Chen Honghui.

As for the last time I saw each other, it was when Lin Xuan terminated the contract with Tomato TV.It's just that I was still an ignorant young man who knew almost nothing. Because of Zhang Jun, he was able to get his freedom from Tomato TV smoothly.

And at this moment, he is no longer the former Wuxia Amon.

He no longer needed Zhang Jun's help, but stepped into the conference room alone.Facing the momentum of the four Tomato executives, Yiran did not lose the wind.

Except for Liu Min, the other three looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

The growth rate of this young man in front of him is really terrifying.Especially Liang Meichen and Chen Honghui, they clearly remembered the scene of Zhang Jun bringing Lin Xuan to negotiate with them a few months ago. The whole process was controlled by Zhang Jun from front to back.If it weren't for Zhang Jun, none of the ten Lin Xuans could be their opponents.

And now...

The Lin Xuan in front of him is completely different from before in terms of demeanor and maturity.

Chen Honghui suppressed his trembling heart, and stood up with a smile: "Mr. Lin, you are indeed a young talent. In just a few months, you have grown from a draft singer to an existence that we all look up to."

Lin Xuan smiled slightly: "Mr. Chen, you are welcome."

Several people exchanged a few pleasantries, and soon got to the point.

Zhao Lei was the first to speak: "Mr. Lin, I heard from Director Liu that you are going to talk to us about the cooperation of a TV series today? If my prediction is correct, this TV series should be the "Legend of Sword and Fairy" you filmed recently, right? What does Mr. Lin mean by selling it to Tomato? But as far as I know, the external reviews of this TV series seem to be not very good, whether it is the investment, the size of the crew, the reputation of the actors...all are untrustworthy. If it wasn't for Mr. Lin, you are the closest partner of our Tomato Channel, if it were anyone else, we would not receive each other."

While Zhao Lei was speaking, the others did not speak, but their eyes were full of suspicion.

They could easily tell that the purpose of Lin Xuan's visit this time was to sell the copyright of "Sword of Immortal Sword" to Tomato Channel.

but.

is it possible?

If it weren't for the fact that Lin Xuan's status is not what it used to be, and that Tomato TV has received too many benefits from him, these high-level executives would never have spared time to talk to him amidst all the busy schedules.

"Thank you for your attention to me."

Lin Xuan smiled slightly, "I understand the doubts in everyone's hearts. But since I dare to sit here today and invite a few of you to negotiate with me, then I have confidence. Before we negotiate, I would like to ask a few questions."

Zhao Lei said in a deep voice, "Please tell me."

Lin Xuan: "The first question, has director Xu Qing come to Tomato to discuss the copyright cooperation issue of "Legend of the Fairy"?"

"Have."

Zhao Lei nodded.

Lin Xuan asked: "Could Mr. Zhao briefly talk about the negotiations between Tomato TV and "Fairy Biography" at that time?"

Zhao Lei said: "Director Xu came here ten days ago, because "Legend of the Fairy" is the fairy-tale drama with the largest investment and the most powerful momentum in recent years, so Tomato Channel attaches great importance to it and hopes to get its premiere rights. After Director Xu came, we immediately sent the top evaluation and negotiation team to contact the other party. After the team’s strict evaluation, this fairy tale drama scored 8.1 points, which is considered very good. It’s a pity that Director Xu later The price offered by the director was too high. The price of a single episode was as high as 1800 million, and the copyright fee for the first broadcast of the 40-episode TV series reached 7.2 million. This was far beyond our affordability, and the negotiation had to be terminated. Three days later, it was rumored in the industry that Director Xu would "Fairy Tales" was sold to Mango TV for 7 million."

This information is an open secret in the industry, so he did not hide it.

7 billion!
Lin Xuan cursed inwardly, the investment is only [-] million, what a huge profit.

And it's only the first broadcast right, the subsequent broadcast copyright and network copyright are also estimated to be astronomical.

It's no wonder that the salaries of those top stars are tens of millions or hundreds of millions.

The more you earn, the higher the pay.

His face showed no emotion: ""Fairy Tales" was bought by Mango TV, doesn't Tomato TV have a sense of urgency?"

Zhao Lei smiled wryly: "Of course there is. The popularity of a TV program in China and the degree to which the audience likes it is the most important thing to look at the ratings of its TV program. In the eyes of everyone in the industry, the fairy tale drama "Fairy Tale" It is destined to make history and become the annual fairy tale blockbuster, and even has a certain probability of becoming the annual ratings champion. As long as this TV series sets a record, then the advertising quotations and column popularity of Mango TV will reach new peaks.

But today's local TV stations in China, the competition among each other has reached a fever pitch.When Mango TV takes away the ratings, the ratings of our programs in the same period on Tomato TV will inevitably drop, which will lead to a decline in program response and advertising quotations.There is even the possibility of permanently losing viewers.

With such potentially serious consequences, almost everyone in our station felt a sense of urgency, and the pressure was off the charts.The current strategy is to immediately find a big TV drama that can compete with "Legend of the Faerie" and fight against it.It's a pity...it's basically impossible to find such a big TV drama in a short time.Even if there are TV dramas of the same level, the investors are not willing to compete with "Legend of the Faerie", because fighting in the arena will only result in a lose-lose outcome. "

It can be seen that the high-level pressure on Tomato TV is indeed great.

Because when Zhao Lei was speaking, both Chen Honghui and Liang Meichen nodded in approval, with serious expressions on their faces.

Only Lin Xuan's eyes lit up. .

Can't find a TV show about The Ring?

Even if there is such a TV series, the investors are not willing?
He smiled: "Mr. Zhao, in fact, I came here today to help Tomato TV solve the crisis."

"you?"

Zhao Lei glanced at Lin Xuan, smiled wryly and said, "Boss Lin, there is no need to joke around at this time."

He didn't say a word.

Just relying on your TV series "Sword of Heaven", which almost became a joke on the Internet, can solve the crisis of their Tomato Channel?They didn't dare to give it to them for free to play, otherwise it would make everyone laugh out loud if it was spread out.

However, Lin Xuan's expression became serious. He stared into Zhao Lei's eyes and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Zhao, I'm not joking. I'm here today, and I invite you, Mr. Chen, and Mr. Liang to come over to discuss this matter seriously with you. thing."

Looking at Lin Xuan's serious expression, Zhao Lei's heart skipped a beat: "Boss Lin, please elaborate."

Lin Xuan opened the briefcase he brought over, and took out a small USB flash drive from it.

"Mr. Zhao, this is the final version of the edited and processed first episode of "The Immortal Sword". If you believe me, let the evaluation team from Tomato come over immediately to evaluate its quality."

"This……"

Zhao Lei froze for a moment.

As for the other three, they also looked at each other in blank dismay.

for real?
Even though they sat in the meeting room, they still thought that Lin Xuan's real purpose for coming today was to ask for something else, and it was impossible that he really wanted to sell the copyright of "Sword of Heaven" to them.

After all, that's pretty incredible.

Yet now.

Looking at the USB flash drive that Lin Xuan handed over in front of him, Zhao Lei thought for a moment that he was dreaming.

He secretly pinched his thigh a few times to calm himself down.Staring at Lin Xuan seriously, he stood up abruptly after making sure that there was no sign of a joke in the other's eyes: "Okay! I'm going to let the Taili evaluation team come over to start the evaluation of the quality of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" .”
