superstar director

Chapter 229
After fifteen years, the taste of the year has basically dissipated. Even though some people are still reluctant to part with the Spring Festival holiday, they have to work hard to start the new year.

The students are busy with their winter vacation homework. Whether it is copying or writing, they are working overtime, painstakingly and helplessly working hard on their books.

And a third-year student like Ning Sheng has nothing to worry about. There are very few general courses, and students have a lot of time to allocate freely.

But now Ning Cheng's first thing is to let his "The Legend of Condor Heroes" air.Perhaps it is due to distrust of Ning Sheng, a new director, that's why few people come to the TV station to inquire about the price.

So, as a last resort, Ning Cheng had no choice but to take the initiative and invite others to come over and have a try.

Because it is just after the new year, most of the classic old dramas from previous years are broadcasting during this period, so people from various TV stations are not in a hurry. However, when the time is approaching the middle of March, they have already prepared and are not in a hurry. Have you made a decision yet? TV stations with new dramas, and those who are determined to compete for this year's ratings championship, naturally have to start looking for suitable targets to start.

As a result of Ning Cheng's invitation this time, many people from the TV station were present, but those who had no hope for Ning Cheng's so-called directing skills did not come. There is some hope for Sheng's ability, especially Blueberry TV, Dongfeng TV, and Mango TV. They have all dealt with Ning Sheng, so they are the most sincere TV stations this time.

Ning Cheng didn't talk nonsense, he directly asked them to take them to try the first two episodes of the TV series, everything will be discussed after watching.

"The Legend of Condor Heroes" is different from the previous "Xiao Li Fei Dao", which is not as famous as Master Gu Long's novels. This Jin Yong martial arts drama by Ning Sheng can be said to have no reputation in this world, and the content of the story is even more unknown However, those novels published under the pen name of "Jin Yong" have not been read by many ordinary people because there is no publicity and the number is small.

Although some people found this novel wonderful, it was difficult to make a big impact because the number was too small and the time was too short.

As a result, the people of the various TV stations who tried to watch did it without knowing the story at all, just like when Ning Sheng watched it for the first time in his childhood, he didn't even know what the novel was in his childhood.

At that time, children who had never read the novel were still fascinated by it. Ning Cheng remembered that at that time, many children got up early because there was no TV at home, and ran to the neighbors who had a TV to watch it. The people from the TV station are similar to the children at that time, because for Chinese people, good martial arts dramas are always the most charming.

Although there is no basis for shooting eagles, it does not affect everyone watching the plot of the sculptures, from Li Mochou's bloody handprint pursuit, to the strong appearance of Guo Jing and his wife, and Dongxie Huang Yaoshi, Xidu Ouyang Feng, etc. The characters, everyone who saw it was a thing and we both forgot, and I couldn't help being addicted to the development of the plot.

When the TV was turned off and Ning Cheng greeted everyone with a smile to talk about copyright, everyone just woke up like a dream.

"Mr. Ning, let's talk about a price. Mango Channel wants the premiere rights of this TV series." As the largest and richest local TV station in China, people from Mango Channel are naturally capable of saying this.

However, it is not Mango TV that is rich in domestic TV stations. Especially in recent years of development, Blueberry TV is also the richest one after Mango TV.

"Two million episodes, the first round of exclusive broadcast rights, what does Ning think?" The person who came to Blueberry Channel was the former deputy director of Zhang Yu. Of course, because of the amazing ratings of "Little Li Feidao", which he advocated last time , so Changyu is now the master of Taiwan.

Coming here this time, it might not be that he wanted to show his identity like people like Ning Cheng, but because "Xiao Li Feidao" made him get what he wanted, so coming this time, he is also looking forward to Ning Cheng's new drama.

Looking at it now, it really is the case. This is a good drama that is not inferior to "Little Li Feidao", so Zhang Yuzhang naturally directly fired the high price, which is the same as the exclusive broadcast price of "Little Li Feidao". high price.

But just like the price of popsicles and ice cream has continued to rise with the economic development, from [-] cents to [-] cents to [-], [-], or even dozens of yuan, the copyright of this TV series is naturally increasing in price.

As far as Ning Sheng knew, Blueberry Channel's advertising expenses directly exceeded [-] million because of the popularity of "Xiao Li Fei Dao".Now that the entire entertainment industry is raising prices, how can the copyright of TV dramas stay where they are?

"Two million yuan is needed for exclusive broadcasting rights. At that time, in the price of last year, don't you know that this year's pork has increased by several yuan compared with last year? We will release an episode of two million. !” Deputy Director Liu of Mango TV said with a smile.

"Mr. Liu, is the money of your Mango Channel too much? The price of two million yuan for the first-level TV series is already sky-high. Are you deliberately driving up the price to bully us?" Director Zhang of the Blueberry Channel asked in dissatisfaction. The inside and outside talk is to pull other people to his side to discuss the other party together.

However, Deputy Director Liu of Mango TV said with a smile, "Don't be so angry, Director Zhang. It's not worth it. Is a big director like you doing this for a TV series? Besides, your two million-one episodes just now are right." Other TV stations are not very friendly."

"Okay." Ning Sheng stopped their quarrel, and said directly, "Everyone is the leader of the TV station, why should you be angry because of such a trivial matter? I think so, the price is still two million yuan per episode, but the exclusive broadcasting rights are not. Sold, this first round of TV rights, I sold three TV stations at a price of [-] million per episode, please sign up if you are willing to buy it?"

Everyone was quiet for a while, looking at Ning Cheng's smiling face together, and Deputy Director Liu of Mango Channel exclaimed, "Boss Ning, you are too big, three TV stations, one episode of two hundred Wan, how much does your TV series cost? You earn too much, don't you?"

Director Zhang of Blueberry Channel also echoed, "The sky-high price of two million yuan per episode, without the first-round exclusive rights, which TV station dares to buy it, and you will not be scolded to death by the leader when you go back."

Ning Cheng was not angry about this, and said with a smile, "Then how much do you guys think is appropriate? I heard that Last Year's Sword and Fairy based on the game was sold to three TV stations for 150 million yuan per episode. You can't bid too much!"

"This——" The two from Blueberry Channel and Mango Channel hesitated for a moment. They were the ones who purchased the first-round broadcast rights of Xianjian. It can be said that last year's TV series was "Little Li Feidao" in the first half of the year. The second half of the year will be "Legend of Sword and Fairy", so the prices of these two dramas have naturally been exposed by the media many times.

"Well, we are running a studio after all, and we may ask the directors for help in the future. This time, how about selling it to you for 150 million yuan per episode? I won't pay any more. You can't be too expensive anymore, can you?" Ning Cheng said with a smile.

"No, no, Mr. Ning is really a good friend!"

"That is, if there is anything Ning has to do in the future, if we can help you, you are absolutely welcome—"
