The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 37 The Buyer Comes
Although Yanjing is in the north, it is very hot in summer.

This day at the famous Yanjing Hotel, amidst the noise of people, Li Shengyao finally met the person he had been waiting for for a long time.

This person is Shen Dongyue, the chief of the TV drama procurement team from Peninsula KBS.

This person is in his thirties, about 1.7 meters tall, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses and a casual suit.

When Shen Dongyue saw Li Shengyao, he was surprised that Li Shengyao was so young, and he thought about buying "Love Hotel" at a cheaper price.

After the two parties were polite, Shen Dongyue said in Mandarin: "Director Li, we KBS intends to introduce "Love Hotel", what is your expected price?"

"Normal Chinese dramas can introduce prices."

"Oh, then the price for us to import Chinese dramas is 1 yuan per episode, is that okay?"

Li Shengyao curled his lips and shook his head, "No."

"This... How much does Director Li want for an episode?"

"Mr. Shen, you don't need to be sloppy with me. Do you want to broadcast it nationwide, or broadcast it on Chinese drama TV?"

In this world, the country that pays the most attention to China is naturally Annan.

Twenty years later, everything that is popular in China, whether it is spiritual guys, earthy short dramas, or variety shows like "I Am a Singer", will be transported to China by Annan people, and they all watch it with gusto.

The country second only to Annan is the peninsula.

According to the statistics of our country, the resident population of the peninsula in China is about 150 million, and the resident population of the peninsula's own media statistics is about 400 million.

Huaxia is the largest destination for overseas students from the peninsula, and Huaxia is the place where the most married women from the peninsula are.

Videos like "The Impact of the Peninsula on China", "Are Peninsula Men Popular in China", and "The Peninsula Leads the Rise of China" all have millions of likes.

Whether the Peninsula experts claim that Confucius and Mencius are from the Peninsula is not necessarily true.

But they do a lot of research every year, and then edit videos and upload them to Youtube. These videos are interviews with ordinary Chinese people, asking them how they feel about the peninsula.

Huaxia people are friendly and humble, and generally speak good things.

Let alone the peninsula at this time, if you ask Rwanda in front of the camera, ordinary people will say that Rwanda is a country with excellent scenery, warm people and rich culture.

This is just a polite remark, but the Peninsula people are very excited, and each such video has millions of likes.

These are on YouTube for everyone to see.

The relationship between the two countries may not be very good, but the peninsula people are definitely most eager to be recognized by China.

After all, my dear father, right?

There are many self-media in later generations, describing the peninsula entertainment industry's attitude towards Huaxia as despicable and hateful.

One of them is that the three major TV stations of Al Jazeera refuse to broadcast Chinese dramas.

This point is wrong.

First of all, my country's foreign policy has always been reciprocal. The three major TV stations of Al Jazeera refuse to broadcast Chinese dramas, so our TV stations will not broadcast Korean dramas.

But the reality is that before 2015, many TV stations in China will broadcast Korean dramas.

The three major TV stations of Al Jazeera have always broadcast Chinese dramas.

The peninsula has a dedicated Chinese TV, which is a paid channel, relatively small, and broadcasts Chinese dramas around the clock.

In fact, some local channels of the peninsula, as well as the three major TV stations, will also introduce Chinese dramas.

The favorite Chinese dramas of Peninsulars are historical dramas. Of course, everyone knows their self-esteem. They will not import dramas that describe Chinese emperors like "Hanwu Emperor", "Kangxi Dynasty" and "Zhenguan Zhizhi".

What they like are second-class historical dramas, such as the curved version of "Legend of the White Snake" and "Bao Qingtian", as well as "Detective Di Renjie", "The General of the Yang Family", "The Mansion Gate", "Qiao Family Courtyard" in the mainland. ", "Bruce Lee" and other film and television dramas.

Regarding modern dramas, Peninsula rarely introduces them, but if they are of high quality, they will also introduce them, such as "Chinese Divorce", the [-]th edition of "Meteor Garden", and the zero-zero version of "Meteor Garden".

The above dramas are broadcast on the three major TV stations of Al Jazeera, which are broadcast to the whole country.

The [-]th edition of "Meteor Garden" helped Wang Heli become the top streamer in the peninsula in one fell swoop, and the number of registered fans in the peninsula entered the top [-].

The average Hallyu idol doesn't have as many fans as him.

Of course, one of the dramas that absolutely cannot be ignored is "Huan Zhu Ge Ge". (Sorry: I used to think that Huanzhugege’s ratings in the Peninsula were average, but I checked the information later and found that Huanzhu should be very popular in the Peninsula)
First of all, two self-media lies must be broken. The first is that "Han Zhu Ge Ge" created a ratings myth and crushed the local dramas of the peninsula.

This is of course false. The top five audience ratings of the Peninsula can be found all over the years. Their highest ratings in history is "First Love" in 60.00, Bae Yong Jun male number two, as high as [-]%.

The highest audience rating in 60.00 was "You and Me", as high as 50.00% II, and the second highest was "Look and Watch", as high as [-]%

The highest audience rating in 50.00 was "The Trap of Youth", which was as high as 40.00%[-], and the second highest was "The Last War", which was as high as [-]%[-].

The second reason is that "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" was so popular that Al Jazeera moved its broadcast time from the prime time to the late night time.

This is fake.

At that time, "Han Zhu Ge Ge" was introduced by SBS, and it was originally arranged to be played at ten o'clock.

In fact, this broadcast time is not bad for the peninsula.

The average peninsula works overtime, and they naturally like to stay up late, and coffee is their lifeblood.

The average time to fall asleep in the peninsula is from one to two in the morning, the same for the elderly and children.

In addition, domestic mainstream satellite TV stations do not broadcast foreign dramas in prime time. The peninsula and island countries are actually the same, and foreign dramas are not broadcast in prime time.

Rather than specifically suppressing Chinese dramas.

In short, the three major TV stations of Al Jazeera will also introduce Chinese dramas, and they will arrange them to be broadcast at relatively acceptable time slots.

"Han Zhu Ge Ge" did not enter the top five in the peninsula in [-] and [-].

But it should be very popular, the ratings are around 40.00%.

The reason why Li Shengyao asked where it was broadcast was because Chinese TV dramas are relatively small, and the above dramas are indeed cheap, with [-] episodes.

But if it is a nationwide drama, it will cost [-] to [-] episodes.

When Shen Dongyue heard it, he immediately understood that Li Shengyao was not an outsider. He was very optimistic about "Love Hotel" and would definitely buy it. He smiled wryly and said, "Director Li, I'm very sorry. I just underestimated you. We will arrange a late-night file. It is broadcast nationwide, and I am willing to buy it for [-] episodes."

Li Shengyao didn't bother to care if others despised him, just give him money.

The price of [-] episodes is considered normal.

He is very happy to sell it to Peninsula. This thing will follow suit. After Peninsula bought it, won’t Wanwan and Daoguo follow suit?

Especially the island countries, they give a lot.

"Okay, I'll make a call and ask the lawyer to look at the contract. If everything goes well, we can sign the contract in the afternoon."

He couldn't trust the people from the peninsula, so he had to invite professional people over.

Shen Dongyue nodded, and then tentatively asked: "Director Li, if we want to remake, how much is the copyright fee?"

"One million, you give me one million, and we can sign the contract this afternoon."
