Legendary Hollywood Director

Andrew is a very thoughtful person.

Because of the good results of "Prison Break", it can be regarded as creating a new situation in TV dramas. Naturally, it is unwilling to continue to remain silent. In a short period of time, in addition to contacting more advertisers to obtain funds, the company's production department He also collaborated with another film and television company on a new drama.

It also focuses on the youth market. It is a campus comedy genre. It is scheduled to be played at 10 pm after "Prison Break".

With the audience traffic driven by "Prison Break", the first episode of the pilot also had a 1.7 rating. Although it is not high, the production budget for the episode is not much. If you keep it up, you can still make a good profit.

It's a pity that WB TV did not form the most favorable momentum for multi-stage development.

Other programs, it should not work or not.

Just like NBC relies on the bonus of "Friends" broadcast, other aspects of performance have also risen sharply.

And Lehman didn't reveal any idea of ​​making a new drama, so Andrew wanted to use the production capabilities of Firefly Pictures to open WB TV station, and the plan of the aggressive situation naturally failed.

Fortunately, he held the broadcast rights of "Prison Break" ahead of time, so he wouldn't fall down immediately before the three seasons that Lyman said were finished.

As for the performance of this drama, it has refreshed his psychological expectations. At present, as long as the situation can be stabilized, it is undoubtedly the most reassuring part of the TV station.

Andrew's "vision" was also highly praised by some high-level executives at Warner's headquarters.

The reorganization that was said earlier has also disappeared.

After all, for Warner, as long as WB TV can be self-sufficient, it doesn't matter if it can't make money, don't let blood transfusions all the time.

Then, entering the first weekend of November, Lismanwish Films had a different movement.

In a cooperation appointment with ABC, Charles did not appear as harmonious as he used to be.

"How can you do this? This is an act that violates the spirit of the contract. I won't agree."

Charles angrily shouted at an acquaintance he had worked with many times—a bespectacled, thin-haired, about fifty-something Rodell who was also one of ABC’s TV executives.

Rodel looked at him so angry, but his expression was as normal as if he hadn't heard him, without the slightest bit of anger.

After all, what he did was to offend people, and it was right for them to be angry.

"This is the meaning of the above. I just deal with you often, and let me know in advance. If you don't agree, the schedule of the broadcast will not be coordinated."

Charles' face darkened even more.

It doesn't matter if the new drama "Man to Middle Age" produced by himself has never done "Prison Break". Now, ABC even has to tear up the signed broadcast contract.

I want to downgrade "Man to Middle Age", cut it in half, and replace it with other new dramas to compete with WB, in order to win the favor of advertisers.

You must know that the production cost of "Man to Middle Age" is not high, and the audience rating during the pilot broadcast was 2. Renewal is definitely profitable, and it is a win-win situation.

But now, tell him no, ABC will not broadcast it.

Play!

The love of cooperation in the past is that it did not give Charles face at all.

Can you not be angry?

In all fairness.

"People to Middle Age" is a small production of sitcom genre.

It does not coincide with the audience market of "Prison Break", and the popularity of "Prison Break" will not affect anything.

In the previous life, he also finished the season smoothly, which is the type that makes steady money.

It won't be a big outbreak, and it's hard not to have a market. Unfortunately, Lehman hit it with "Prison Break" at the wrong time. After a big fish appeared in the winter schedule, ABC couldn't bear to play this mediocre drama.

how to say?

Several major TV stations are all rivals, so how can they be too far behind?

As for Rodell's personal relationship with Charles...

Business is business, right?

This is not something that should be considered in business.

After all, the top management has already made a decision. Whether it is said or not, "Man to Middle Age" has to make room. This is not something that Rodel can avoid.

"The ratings can't be compared, but the TV series itself is not bad. It has an audience base. Why do your TV stations want to cut it?"

"There is also pressure from advertisers, who believe that "Man to Middle Age" does not meet the conditions for placement of advertisements."

"Renewable contracts have been signed, and the crew is also working hard to catch up with the filming. Can all these be voided?"

"Ha, we will compensate. It's enough to make up for these losses, and it won't make you lose money."

"That's it?"

Charles laughed angrily.

Not to mention that if the TV series can't be broadcast, you won't be able to get any share of the advertising placement costs, and you won't be able to burn discs, harvest the offline market, and the crew that are still shooting will also be disbanded, which will definitely hate the actors - those Xiaolongtao doesn't need to worry about it, but the main character has worked with Charles many times, and the two sides also have personal friendships. On weekdays, whenever there is a project, they will basically invite him like him, and they are also happy to free up their schedules for filming...

Can these losses also be measured in funds?

Furthermore, ABC has no conscience at all, and only promised to compensate for the loss caused by the suspension of the filming. This money is too far from the profit of the project expected by Charles, so how can it be satisfied?

A good meeting between friends, but at the moment it is mixed with gunpowder and war.

Rodel lowered his head and said nothing, but he sneered in his heart and didn't take Charles seriously at all.

If it weren't for the fact that Lisemanwish Films could bring film sources and profits to ABC, who would befriend you?

Kindly let me know, give me some preparation, but I don't appreciate it. Ah.

The indifferent attitude on his face, there is no smile to hide.

As for Charles' gaffe, it was because of the TV series produced by Lyman.

If other film and television companies don’t care, let it go, let it go, lose it, and withdraw it when it is withdrawn.

But the opponent is still trying to acquire their own efforts~www.readwn.com~ has not been involved in personnel, not to mention bringing the production team to make progress together, and now they are still suppressing, and Lionsgate has intervened in the personnel department, letting Charles He kept holding a sigh of anger.

That's good, the anger didn't come out, but it got deeper.

There was a big fire in Charles' heart, and the abandonment of ABC made the fire even more intense.

Can this explode?

He waved his hand and said somewhat rudely: "This matter, ABC can do whatever it wants, I don't have any problem."

"It should be. Since that's the case, I'll go back first. There's a lot of business in the company, but it's not as leisurely as you."

Rodel said the same rude words, and he lost a horse. It also shows that the friendship between the two who are still in harmony has broken down.

He stood up decisively and said:

"Remember to send someone over tomorrow to sign a new copyright contract."

After speaking, he immediately left the clubhouse.

However, he is not at all worried about the consequences of voluntarily tearing up the contract.

Anyway, the always strong ABC is not afraid.

Charles' face became even more ugly.
