Chapter 151: Blueberry TV

Zhejiang Province, Blueberry TV Office Building

Wu Haixiong arrived at the station early in the morning and roughly dealt with the things that had accumulated over the past few days. Seeing that it was 9:20, he got up, tidied his clothes, and then walked out of the door to the director’s office two offices away. He knocked on the door and heard someone say”Come in”, so he pushed the door open and went in.

Hu Minghua was wiping his desk with a small towel. When he looked up, he saw Wu Haixiong coming. He put down the small towel, raised his hand to smooth his sparse hair, and said with a smile:”Are you back?”

Wu Haixiong went over and sat down opposite him, with an excited expression on his face,”You’re back!””

Hu Minghua asked again:”I heard that you brought that TV series with you?”

Wu Haixiong smiled, nodded, and said,”Yes, I brought it back directly after signing the contract.”

Hu Minghua nodded with a smile, like Maitreya Buddha, paused, and said:”You young people are really bold in doing things! From now on, it will depend on you to improve the quality of our program, especially you!”

Wu Haixiong smiled and responded calmly,”That’s also inseparable from your guidance! Without your support, I would not have the confidence.”

Hu Minghua laughed and nodded with satisfaction.

Wu Haixiong also smiled

Although everyone knows that this is nonsense, this kind of nonsense must be said frequently and every day, because this repeated nonsense contains each other’s positioning and cognition. It is a way for both parties to find their own position, constantly hone their respective roles, and find out the bottom line of each other’s behavior.

Very unnutritious, but very useful

After a moment, Hu Minghua picked up the small towel again and slowly wiped the small table in front of him. The high-grade mahogany table was wiped spotlessly clean by him.

As he wiped it, he said,”I can’t do it anymore. I’m old. I can only help you guys by playing supporting roles. As the saying goes, help you get on the horse and send you on your way. Haha? Oh, by the way, this Haixiong, 50 million, is really not cheap! Not to mention our station, even if it’s dozens of TV stations across the country, including CCTV, this is a record. What are you thinking?.”

After a pause, he put down the small towel and said,”I don’t mean to question your decision. You know, although you have the power to make decisions on TV series, such a large amount of money is involved. I guess someone will definitely raise some opinions at the next director’s office meeting. By that time, even if I want to support your decision, I have to have some explanation, right?”

Wu Haixiong smiled when he heard this and answered without hesitation:”This 50 million will definitely be lost in the short term.”

His words seemed to be shocking, but Hu Minghua’s expression did not change at all. He still looked at him with a faint smile and even nodded slightly, as if his eyebrows and heart were full of”I appreciate every word you say”

At this time, Wu Haixiong said again:”However, the reason for giving this price is mainly because we don’t have time to entangle. Before I took people over, they had already invited four TV stations. You know, those four have always been stronger than us. Even if the price is the same, anyone would be more willing to choose them to cooperate. So at this time, I must cut the Gordian knot and take them first.”

Hu Minghua smiled, nodded slightly, and said nothing.

Wu Haixiong continued,”Moreover, our station has been silent for many years, and the situation has been going downhill all these years, so our advertisements are not as valuable as others.

To change all this, we must take a drastic measure.

This TV series may lose money, and even if its ratings are very high in the first broadcast, it will still lose money when it is broadcast again in the second round and the advertising prices increase.

But as long as the ratings are raised, and the audiences across the country know that our station can often have some good TV series, and advertisers know that our station’s ratings are very high and we have good things, then in the future, the price will naturally go up slowly!

So, it is certain that we will lose a little in the short term, but in the long run, we can still make money.

”

When Wu Haixiong mentioned without hesitation that”it has been running down all these years”, Hu Minghua’s eyebrows blinked for a moment, but he smiled as usual. After Wu Haixiong finished speaking, he thought for a while, nodded, and asked with a smile:”What is the name of this New Legend of White Snake? In your opinion, is it this strong medicine?”

This time, Wu Haixiong hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he nodded.

Then, he said,”It hasn’t been aired yet, and to be honest, I have no idea what kind of results this drama can achieve, but there are three reasons that prompted me to make this decision.”

Hu Minghua’s eyes lit up when he heard that, and he smiled,”Oh? Tell me about it? Fifty million! Each of your three points is worth seventeen million, which is very valuable!””

Wu Haixiong understood what the other party meant, and also understood that this old fox who had been the station director for more than ten years was threatening him implicitly, but he was fearless and said,”First, I watched this drama myself, all 50 episodes, without missing a single one, from the beginning to the end.

After watching it, I felt that whether it was from the story, the characterization, or the particularly delicate and beautiful pictures, and the special effects that were said to have cost a lot of money and reached the current international first-class level, they were far superior to the TV dramas in our country in recent years.

I even think that they are more than one level higher!

”

“I was afraid that I was inexperienced, unprofessional, and not up to standard, so I asked the people in the film purchasing department very seriously, and their opinions were similar to mine.

Although some individuals raised some opinions, for example, some people thought that the inserted singing segments in the middle were redundant, which would be a bit confusing or they felt that they called out the drama, and for example, some people thought that a fifty-minute episode was too long.

But in terms of the overall quality of this TV series, everyone thought that it was at least one level higher than the current TV series in China!

Hearing this, Hu Minghua couldn’t help but interrupt him and asked with a smile:”That young man is said to be a graduate of the Film Academy and a novelist. I also know that he is good at writing songs and singing, but is the TV series he shot much better than others?”

Wu Haixiong nodded affirmatively,”It is indeed much smarter.”

Hu Minghua narrowed his eyes, smiled, nodded and said,”This is really a strange thing. It seems that there really are geniuses in this world!” After a pause, he waved his hand,”I’m just asking casually! Even if we have the 17 million, what about the remaining 27 million?”
