Chapter 419: Each takes what he needs and cooperates

Under the leadership of Xu Qin, Mu Shanhe Qingche Jian came to China Television, which had not yet repaired its trouser hairpin.Naturally, the leaders of China Television attach great importance to his arrival.Anyone with access knows that this is a real media and entertainment tycoon.

With the completion of the establishment of Asia Entertainment Media Group, everyone who pays attention to the Xiangcheng entertainment industry knows who the real boss behind this group is.As the largest and most well-known TV station in China, China Television has its own airs but also some people.

Especially when many leaders know that Asia Entertainment has obtained a pilot license from the leaders above to establish the first private film and television company in the country, many people know that domestic film and television entertainment may usher in new changes.

Compared with all the station leaders who were dressed very formally, Mu Shanhe was dressed very casually.If he were walking on the street, I'm afraid no one would believe that he is the young rich man who is well-known in Xiangcheng and whose net worth is said to be tens of billions.

But even so, the leaders who knew his identity did not dare to be careless.Furthermore, a group of senior executives from ATV came to visit and donated several cameras to China Television for free, which made all the directors in Taiwan very happy.

Although high-end cameras can be purchased as long as you have money, if you want to purchase truly high-end cameras, you must apply for foreign exchange.Instead of purchasing energy and mechanical equipment that are urgently needed by the country, China Vision wants to apply for foreign exchange to buy cameras. The result is predictable.

Under the guidance of Taiwanese leaders, Mu Shanhe visited China Television’s production center.He even visited the news center where he usually visited with great interest.After watching it, he also felt that China Television's facilities were quite backward.

Standing outside the news center, Mu Shanhe said with emotion: "I used to just sit in front of the TV and watch the series at seven o'clock every night. Today I finally have the opportunity to see where the host actually broadcasts the news. It feels quite strange. .”

"Does Mr. Wu often watch our news broadcasts?"

"That's natural! In my opinion, no matter what industry you are in, if you spend half an hour every day watching your evening news broadcast, you can learn and understand a lot from it. As long as I have time in China, I must watch it almost every day."

In fact, this habit was also developed under the force of the old man in his previous life.Like the old man, there are many old leaders who have this habit.Because news broadcasts often report on things involving national policies.

It is said that "spring rivers are flooded and ducks are prophets". In fact, clues of the issuance and promotion of many policies can be seen in news broadcasts.However, people who watch the news need to have certain news channels and analytical capabilities.

The current seven o'clock news on ATV is also a news broadcast program that was forced to be broadcast after Mu Shanhe took over.At first, many citizens thought it was not interesting, but now many people watch the [-] o'clock news.

The reason is also because in this news broadcast, many citizens can know about national events involving Xiangcheng and what is happening outside Xiangcheng.To be precise, all major event news collected from abroad will be reported in this news.

Although some people were worried earlier that Mu Shanhe, which fully controls ATV, may turn the TV station into a TV station that is completely biased towards the mainland.But now that many people have paid attention, they have discovered that this does not seem to be the case.

The only difference is that ATV rarely reports news that slanders or belittles the mainland.At this point, even the most famous wireless company seems to be unable to take advantage of it.Although news must be neutral, many people know that it is difficult to achieve this.

After visiting China Television's production center, Mu Shanhe also saw many familiar figures, and even shook hands with some well-known hosts. The hosts were also very excited and felt that Mu Shanhe was very kind.

For example, there is a male host who is often seen in news broadcasts. Every time he sees him, Mu Shanhe will think of the phrase "Spring is coming, everything revives, and it is the season for animals to breed again." He feels kind to him when he sees him. .

On the other hand, before the rebirth, those familiar program hosts are still playing in the mud!Arriving at China Television's conference room, Mu Shanhe also saw several directors hired by China Television.Considering the number of actors to be recruited and the scale of the filming of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it is normal to hire several more directors to co-direct.

After shaking hands with these directors, China Television leaders also briefly explained the difficulties of filming the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.After listening, Mu Shanhe also said directly: "Director Wang, how many episodes do you currently plan to shoot for this drama?"

"If funds permit, we plan to make a feature-length drama with approximately [-] to [-] episodes."

"Then have you made a budget? As far as I know, if you want to shoot a truly classic Romance of the Three Kingdoms, you may have to shoot many of the big scenes mentioned in the novel, right? For example, the Battle of Red Cliff, if you want to shoot a book In such a scene, the money is like running water!"

"Yes, Director Wu! Putting aside the funds for building some shooting locations, the shooting funds alone may reach tens of millions or even over [-] million. In terms of costumes and props alone, I'm afraid the number of preparations will not be small."

Looking at the director with a bitter expression and the station leader with a similarly complex expression, Mu Shanhe still smiled and said: "Chen Tai, may I ask, how much funding have you prepared for the filming?"

"RMB 5000 million has been raised so far! Moreover, these funds have to be disbursed in batches. Director Wu also knows that although we are the largest TV station in the country, if we can allocate funds for filming, we still need to apply for and approve them step by step."

"5000 million? Then your funding gap is bigger than I thought!"

"Yes! When Mr. Zhou of your company came over for inspection earlier, we were also thinking about whether there was any chance of cooperation. After all, the Four Great Classics are our classic literary works. It would be a pleasure to put them on the screen. ah!"

"That's the truth! Let's do it! Our group has just built a film and television city in Nanhai over the Special Economic Zone, with an investment scale of about [-] million US dollars. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms must have involved some ancient cities.

There are many experts and scholars in the field of ancient architecture in China, and several directors are also experts in this field.If you don't mind, some of the buildings needed in the film can be built directly in the film and television city.

Secondly, the costumes and props required for filming can actually be reused.Our group can also invest in this area of ​​funds.But the costumes and props all belong to our group in the end.

Our group can also provide the remaining funds required for filming, but we want the overseas broadcast rights of this drama.Even though I am the chairman of the board, it involves the transfer of tens of millions of funds, and I cannot make the decision with just one word. "

"This is natural! Director Wu, let's talk about cooperation?"

Knowing that Mu Shanhe could help with the remaining filming funds and even the filming base, the station leaders and several directors were naturally happy.As for selling overseas copyrights, they don’t think they can sell for tens of millions, right?
Rather than making money from selling film and television rights, they actually care more about filming this drama.For Taiwan’s leaders, isn’t it a political achievement to be able to enrich the cultural life of the audience?

For the co-directors, it is an honor to be able to film a classic!
