Zhou Lu was silent for a moment, and had to say that what this young man said made sense.
Ten episodes of animation cost tens of thousands of dollars, which is no pain at all for the TV station.
She looked into Jiang Xia's eyes and said, "Boss Jiang, do you plan to continue doing cat and mouse in the future?"
"Of course, the biggest advantage of a unit drama is that you don't have to worry about the collapse of the plot. There is no so-called finale, and you can do as long as you want."
Jiang Xia paused, put his hands on the table, crossed his fingers and rested his chin, and said slowly: "In my plan, Tom and Jerry is at least a long novel with hundreds of episodes, but the production capacity is temporarily limited. Just take it slow."
Listening to the big cake he drew, Zhou Lu refused to comment. For now, the story content of hundreds of episodes is too far away, and even many long-form animations have collapsed due to the poor profitability of animation companies.
TV stations only ask for current ratings.
As the editor-in-chief of the Children's Channel, she has encountered countless animation companies that talked about hype during the negotiation, but then messed up in the follow-up.
In order to cheat the state policy subsidies, those guys can do anything.
"Then if the ratings are good after the animation is broadcast, and Boss Jiang has more episodes in his hands, will he continue to choose to cooperate with my station?" She looked into Jiang Xia's eyes and said word by word: "I It refers to the exclusive rights to broadcast the first round."
Jiang Xia nodded slightly: "That's natural. If there is a need in this regard, Yudu TV Station will be my first choice."
Hearing this promise, Zhou Lu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then Boss Jiang, let's make a price." She smiled professionally again, "How much do you think a cat and a mouse are worth?"
Jiang Xia slowly stretched out a finger.
"One hundred per minute?" Zhou Lu raised her eyebrows slightly.
"No, it's one thousand."
One thousand per minute, calculated according to the average duration of cats and mice of 7 and a half minutes, that is 500 yuan.
Zhou Lu refused without thinking about it: "Boss Jiang, although the quality of the cat and mouse is indeed good, it is impossible for any local TV station to agree to this price. Even the Central Children's Channel will think the price is too high."
"Then how much do you think the price is suitable?" Jiang Xia said with a smile, and kicked the ball back quietly.
Zhou Lu was stunned, and suddenly felt that the young man in front of him was actually a young old fox with a high level of conversation.
She thought about the bottom line given by the stage just now, and lowered it a little: "Three hundred per minute."
Jiang Xia also shook his head: "Editor Zhou, this price is too low. Others can cut it in half at most. You can cut it by [-]% at once, which is not enough to pay my employees' wages. To be honest, several local TV stations have contacted me before. The price offered by the other side can be higher than this.”
"Then why did your company choose us?"
"It's very simple, because I'm from a mountain city."
He smiled and said: "Well, I'm not too lazy to come and go and bargain like the aunt in the vegetable market. Hurry up, buy it now, and the price of a single episode is [-]."
Zhou Lu frowned. This price is still higher than the bottom line given by the station. According to the price per minute, it is about 500-550.
"Boss Jiang, I can't decide on this price. I need to discuss it with the desk." She said, and left the reception room again.
"Axia, I guess, [-] per minute is their psychological price, but I don't think it's too much, so I want to think about it again." Li Weiya asked after thinking about it.
"I think so."
Not long after, Zhou Lu walked into the reception room with a smile on her face: "Boss Jiang, Taili agreed to your quotation, but to be honest, this price is already the highest price given this year."
"I guess you agreed because of the relatively small number of episodes?" Jiang Xia laughed.
Zhou Lu didn't hide these things, and nodded with a smile: "Yes, the main reason is that the leaders in the station are very optimistic about the animation of Tom and Jerry, otherwise they would not agree."
She took out the pre-prepared standard contract and handed it over, pointing to the corresponding terms and explaining to Jiang Xia bit by bit, including the animation trailer, and arranging the official broadcast of cat and mouse in the evening prime time on June 6.
The time period with the highest ratings in summer, coupled with the recent explosion of animation, with the combination of the two, Yudu TV Station may usher in a small peak ratings.
Jiang Xia read it carefully, and showed it to Li Weiya again, but she didn't think there was any trap. The contract signed this time only covers the first twelve episodes. As for the follow-up cooperation, we will talk about it at that time.
It is worth noting that during the exclusive first round broadcast period, Jiang Xia can no longer sell cat and mouse to other TV stations.
"Boss Jiang, if you think the contract is okay, just sign it." Zhou Lu smiled slightly.
"Row."
He reviewed it carefully again, signed all the content, and finally both parties stamped the company seal on the signature place, and the contract became effective.
"Boss Jiang, happy cooperation." Zhou Lu stood up and shook hands with him.
"It's a pleasant cooperation, and I look forward to continuing to cooperate with you next time."
"I wish the cat and mouse a great fire in advance."
"Hahaha, then I wish the ratings will increase significantly during the broadcast."
The two smiled at each other.
"Boss Jiang, do you want me to show you around the TV station?"
"No need, I only have 10 episodes of cat and mouse, and I still owe you two episodes. I have to go back to work overtime now." Jiang Xia shook his head.
Zhou Lu laughed: "If that's the case, then I won't send it off, you two go slowly."
She suddenly remembered something: "By the way, Boss Jiang, my son also likes the animation of Tom and Jerry very much. He said that it is really interesting."
"It's an honor for me to be liked by children."
Watching the two walk into the elevator, Zhou Lu was slightly absent-minded.
The animator is really excellent.
◇
Jiang Xia and Li Weiya walked out of the TV station building, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Aunt Li, did I behave well just now?"
She gave a thumbs up: "It's more than good, the rhythm of the negotiation is in your hands. 4000 yuan for a single episode, once the effect is good, the follow-up purchase price will only be high or not, and the TV stations in other places will probably like you very soon. Contact, it is no exaggeration to say, Axia, you are going to get rich."
Jiang Xia smiled and said nothing, he knew very well that the real value of cats and mice was just the tip of the iceberg.
"Speaking of which, where did you learn those negotiation skills, the school doesn't teach this."
"The elders have said that I am outgoing and eloquent since I was a child, and I will be a leader in the future." Jiang Xia said cheekily.
"So, you want to say natural?"
"Hahaha, maybe."
"Auntie, are you hungry? Let's go eat, I'll treat you today!"
Jiang Xia was in a great mood after successfully selling the first-round broadcast rights of Tom and Jerry, not because of the 4 yuan, but because of the fame of Qitian Animation Company, which will really start when Tom and Jerry is released.
……
(Good night)
Chapter 89 Wife, our family is rich!
"Honey, our family is rich!"
In the car on the return journey, Jiang Xia took out her mobile phone and sent a text message to his wife.
Lin Yanwan was playing with the cute little taro ball at this time, when she heard the sound of a text message, she took a look at the mobile phone on the table, the words "wife" and "our family" made her face Unconsciously showing shame.
"The first round of broadcasting rights have been sold?"
"Well, 4000 for a single episode. I signed a contract for a total of 12 episodes. Tom and Jerry will air at the end of the month soon. Finally, I don't need you to help me pay my salary for June."
When typing these words, Jiang Xia was still a little excited. The trip to the TV station went smoother than he expected.
That is to say, the current mobile phone cannot chat via video, otherwise he would have to share the joy of this moment with his wife.
Lin Yanwan silently calculated the accounts, 4 yuan is not too much, but once the cat and mouse fire, the hidden profits will be more than that.
"Congratulations, the three months of hard work are finally worth it."
"Baby should be the first credit! You don't know, the people on the TV station are boasting about your dubbing!"
"What about the reward?"
"I'll give you a kiss when I get home!"
"...is this a reward for yourself?"
"It doesn't matter, just kiss~ Facts have proved that behind every successful man, there is a good wife, baby, I love you to death!"
Lin Yanwan really can't stand this guy, how old he is, and acting like a baby.
Hehehe, if she didn't know how to dub, would he still say that he loves her like this?
"Where are you?"
"In Aunt Li's car, I'll be back in a while."
"have you eaten yet?"
"Yeah, I've already eaten, wait for me to come back, mua~mua~"
Li Weiya glanced at her side from the corner of her eye, Jiang Xia had an uncontrollable smile on her face, and frantically pressed her phone with both hands.
"Are you announcing the good news to your family?"
"Hmm..." Jiang Xia hesitated for a second, then nodded slightly.
My wife, of course, is a family member. Although I haven't slept in the same bed now, I have slept in the same bed in the previous life, and I will sleep in this life sooner or later.
"Shanshan really gave birth to a good son." Li Weiya said with emotion.
She always thought that her son was very good, but compared with Jiang Xia, he seemed to be far behind.
"Aunt Li, can you not tell my parents about this?" He hesitated.
Li Weiya was taken aback: "They don't know?"
"Well, I don't know."
"Then how did your cat and mouse do it!"
"I just drew secretly. If my mother found out that I was doing this when I was always reviewing, I'm afraid she would have confiscated all the drawings from me."
Li Weiya twitched her face, listen, is this a human language?Using fragmented time to secretly make animations, the quality is actually so good, and I heard from Amin that Jiang Xia's grades have been improving.
Damn my mother, she is already envious of such a good son.
Starting a company, making animations, and his academic performance is so good, what else does he not know?
