Huayu, my wife, I support myself

Chapter 39

the phone is connected,
"Hey,"

"Lu Chen,"

Zeng Jia's voice came from the other end of the phone: "It's similar to what I said yesterday. The other party may not have seen the finished product, so the bid is relatively low. Now after seeing the finished product, they are willing to bid to buy out the copyright, and they are willing to bid 150 yuan. In case of an episode, if you are willing to negotiate, the price can go up a lot, I think it can reach the space of 180 million for an episode.”

"Oh!"

Lu Chen was a little surprised.

He thought that Zeng Jia called to tell him about the result of their negotiation, but he didn't expect to bring him the news.

Since you called,
It means that she is also moved by this price.

180 million per episode, a total of 24 episodes, or 4320 million.

The investment cost of the two dramas has not only come back, but also made a profit!
It means that even if the drama "You Are My Glory" doesn't make any money.

They also earn.

Lu Chen froze for a moment, then said, "The reserve price is 220 million per episode."

"The base price is 220 million per episode."

"That's right,"

Zeng Jia said helplessly, "The price is too high, they won't agree."

"Sign a VAM agreement with them!"

Lu Chen immediately gave a solution: "Talk to them based on the number of "Warm Hours of Light" played!"

"Are you sure?"

"What do you say?"

Zeng Jia followed Lu Chen's advice: "I understand."

"By the way, don't forget to notify Kiwi."

"Do not worry!"

Kiwi has the right of first refusal for his drama, so no matter what, he knows that he will be heard from the other party.

……

Four p.m.

When Lu Chen came to Jiaxing Media, Zeng Jia had just driven back.

The two met in the office.

"It's settled,"

Zeng Jia let out a long sigh of relief, and then put a stack of thick contracts on the table: "The base price is 165 million per episode, and they will transfer the money to our account in a few days."

According to what you said, talk to them with "Warm Hours of Light" as the boundary.

The price is 240 million per episode, and the broadcast volume of "Zhou Shengrui" has exceeded the broadcast volume of "Warm Hours", which is 15 billion. They will make up the rest of the money for us. If the broadcast volume does not reach, 165 million In case of an episode, it is the price of this drama. "

"Okay,"

Lu Chen was very satisfied with the result.

His reserve price was 220 million. Unexpectedly, Zeng Jia mentioned 240 million.

A full 20 more!every episode.

"By the way, what did Kiwi say?"

"What else can I say, give up! They seem to have bought a lot of dramas recently, so they look down on your drama."

"whatever."

"Are you so sure?"

Zeng Jia glanced at Lu Chen curiously: "The number of views of "The Warm Hour" has reached 17 billion. Although the other party only set a threshold of 15 billion, it is not so easy to break through."

"Two weeks is enough time."

Zeng Jia was stunned!
It's not that Lu Chen is unsure, but too arrogant, right?

It's so arrogant that it only takes two weeks for "Zhou Sheng Is Like Us" to exceed 15 billion views.

Anyway, Zeng Jia doesn't care.
Even if it is only 165 million, they have made a lot of money.

Close to 4000 million!

But thinking of their share, he instantly became depressed.

The company invested 900 million, accounting for only 40.00%, which is about 1600 million.

The remaining 2400 million belong to this guy in front of him.

However, thinking that this is just "Zhou Sheng As Before", there is also "You Are My Glory"!

Zeng Jia's face turned cloudy again.

Now, whether they can continue to make a lot of money depends on whether "Zhou Shengru" is as Lu Chen said!
At this time, he didn't object to Lu Chen any more, and he was vaguely looking forward to the breakthrough of 15 billion in "The Same Day".

"this is for you!"

Lu Chen also handed Zeng Jia the script of the drama he was going to shoot!

From online dramas to TV dramas, he is just barely there now.

Of course Lu Chen wouldn't just turn around and look back!

Just step over this finishing touch!
He will have plenty of time to rest in the future.

Lu Chen had discussed this with Zeng Jia before, and of course Zeng Jia would not object.

Web drama directors and TV drama directors are not at the same level.

Very intuitive difference!

Dramas directed by online dramas can only be sold to video sites.

In addition to being sold to TV stations, dramas directed by TV dramas can also be bought to video sites.

simply put,
They can earn two shares of money for one play.

Just like this, "Zhou Sheng As Before" sold almost 4000 million to video sites alone. If it can be sold to TV stations...

They can at least double the money they earn!
Therefore, regarding Lu Chen's plan to cross the threshold of being a web drama director,

Zeng Jia also raised his hands in support.

However, it is undeniable that...

This threshold is not so easy to step over.

There is also an element of gambling in it.

However, this factor has been minimized.

Penguin Film and Television is willing to spend so much money, and the purchase of "Zhou Sheng Is the Same" is the best example.

It shows that they are also optimistic about "Zhou Sheng As Before".

The chances of fire are high!

And Lu Chen just wanted to take advantage of this shareholder wind!Make domestic TV stations interested in him and willing to buy his dramas.

The influence of a TV drama director on an entertainment company is enormous!
The market capitalization of the company can increase a lot.

Very intuitive example.

The year before last, Director Feng left Huayi, which almost made Huayi stand up.

In the end, Boss Wang surrendered and spent 400 million in cash and 3% of Huayi's equity.

Only then did Director Feng be invited back.

Therefore, the influence of a TV series or film director on an entertainment company can be said to be enormous.

It is far bigger than several movie kings and movie queens sitting in a company.

Same example.

Boss Wang acknowledged Feng Dao's influence on Huayi.

But he never acknowledged the influence of Manager Wang on Huayi.

During that time, not only Director Feng left, but Wang Jinghua also left Chengtian with 80% of the artists, which brought a huge crisis to Huayi.

When Manager Wang entered Huayi, she was allocated 50% of the shares. In order to prevent the artists she took away from paying liquidated damages, she gave up her 50% equity in exchange for the freedom of all artists.

After he left, Director Feng came back,
Not only did Huayi not fail, but because of Director Feng's existence, Huayi became the boss of Huaguo Entertainment Company!

Some people say that Director Feng alone has kept Hua from failing for ten years.

Although a bit exaggerated,

But it also proves the influence of a film director on an entertainment company from some aspects.

Lu Chen wasn't struggling with this issue,

He opened his mouth and said, "Has Penguin Movies and Television set the airing time of this show?"

"It's scheduled for February 2th,"

Zeng Jia said helplessly: "It happens to be the sixth day of the Spring Festival. According to the usual practice, eight episodes will be broadcast at one time, and the remaining two episodes will be broadcast every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday."

"Is that why you don't like it?"

"Yes, I asked specifically. There are many high-quality dramas in the Spring Festival this year that will be broadcast during this time period. Not only online dramas, but also several TV dramas. The fighting is very fierce. Our drama has a great possibility. Will become cannon fodder..."

"The website platform does not compete for ratings! What is there to worry about?"

It doesn't matter to Lu Chen, what the video website is watching is the popularity and the number of views!
Viewership ratings are something that TV stations compete for, and it has nothing to do with them.

Therefore, it has nothing to do with Lu Chen and the others.
