Rebirth of the Entertainment Giant

150 Building Connections

Zhang Xiaohua knew well, if he didn't give Huaxia Central Television something, they would definitely leave aggrieved.

If it was only Huaxia Television, Zhang Xiaohua wouldn't bother with them, but the key was that Huaxia Central Television had the backing of the government. With this backing, they had maintained their place as the main station in Huaxia.

Their power in the industry was incredible.

If Huaxia Central decided to act against them, they would be in trouble, there would be plenty of other stations and competitors willing to join Huaxia Central in condemning them. Let alone, HuaXiang Entertainment even if it was a bigger enterprise, they would be crushed.

Until the company reached a stage where it was untouchable, Zhang Xiaohua could only give in: "Would Director Liu be interested in Yang Kun's concert?"

When this was said, not only was Director Liu stunned, but everyone in the room was surprised.

At present, Yang Kun had only five songs in total. It was a good idea to create a small tv show. But it seemed a little far-fetched to hold a concert.

"Xiao-Hua..."

As Yuan Datong was about speak, Zhang Xiaohua held up his hand and signalled him not to interrupt.

Seeing this Yuan Datong stopped himself and kept quiet, but his face could still be seen showing a complicated expression.

He didn't doubt Zhang Xiaohua's ability. Originally, he thought that Yang Kun wouldn't cut it at as an artist. But in the end, with Zhang Xiaohua's songs, Yang Kun exceeded his expectations.

Yuan Datong was deeply impressed by Zhang Xiaohua's supreme musical creativity.

It's just that, even though Zhang Xiaohua has the talent in this aspect, he wasn't a god after all.

Creativity takes inspiration, which is something you can't force. The way he saw it, they were backing themselves into a corner.

At present, Yang Kun had only five songs, but if he wanted to have a concert, he would need at least ten songs.

If any of these ten songs dropped the slightest in quality. They were just inviting a hail storm of criticism upon themselves.

Waiting longer to hold a concert would give them more time to refine their songs.

And with Zhang Xiaohua's mother in hospital and all the other issues he had to deal with, the chances of the quality of songs produced dropping in quality were extremely high.

However, for Director Liu, this couldn't be better for Huaxia Central Television.

Yang Kun was blowing up currently. All his songs had respectively occupied the top 5 rankings on the charts.

Now that Yang Kun was going to have a concert, which TV station wouldn't want to participate in it?

"Boss Zhang, what do you mean by this? Is Yang Kun really going to have a concert?"

Director Liu's attitude immediately took a hundred and eighty degrees turn. At this time, he was no longer in a hurry to leave, completely attracted by Zhang Xiaohua's topic. Even the variety show matter was left behind by him.

"Yes, Yang Kun is currently the hottest star and a concert will allow him to ground himself into the scene faster. So, are you interested in working with us?" Zhang Xiaohua said with a fake smile.

Below the surface, he was filled with frustration. It should be noted that if the concert was made into a record like and sold last time, the profit would definitely be larger than what they would get from selling the rights.

Director Liu immediately became interested and asked: "Where will you the concert be? Will it be the same place as last time? And what will be the terms for our cooperation?"

"The venue will be the Jiugusong Stadium. As for how the two sides cooperate, it's simple. Your station will get the live tv broadcasting rights to the concert." Answered Zhang Xiaohua.

"Jiugusong Stadium?" said Director Liu, placing his hands on his chin, it was obvious he wasn't satisfied.

But he wasn't to blame...

Tianhe Stadium was large enough to accommodate 30,000 spectators and could be classed as an elite stadium. Although the Jiugusong Stadium was also renowned on the national level, it was a third-tier stadium which could only accommodate up to 15,000 spectators. Compared with the last concert held by Ling Ming at the Tianhe Stadium, the size of the Yang Kun's concert was obviously lacking.

In fact, compared to those auditoriums, opera houses and the like, Jiugusong Stadium could be considered a top tier concert venue. Yang Kun hadn't had time to accumulate fans and solidify his foundation.

"Isn't the size of Jiugusong Stadium a little too small? What about Tianhe Stadium instead for the concert? We can help you cover the costs and help you with promotional activities and ticket sales channels. We can all take full responsibility. If necessary, we can even provide sponsorship.

Zhang Xiaohua secretly swore in his mind, he had already made concessions and given the live broadcast rights to them. As for the preparation of the concert, he didn't want to let Huaxia Central Television intervene again. Else he would just fall into their debt.

He laughed and said: "Don't worry about it. We are professionals, we can handle arranging the concert. You just need to send people to film the concert and watch your ratings explode."

Seeing Zhang Xiaohua so determined, he knew there was no room for negotiation, Director Liu could only nod: "Well then, I will represent Huaxia Central and accept your invitation. We are willing to pay 60 million yuan for the broadcast rights."

"Director Liu this won't do, the lowest we can do is 90 million yuan. This is already quite generous according to industry standards." Zhang Xiaohua said resolutely.

"This..." Director Liu became embarrassed and somewhat angry. Ling Ming's live broadcast rights were only worth 40 million and the size of Yang Kun's concert would be smaller than Ling Ming's. But now, he asked for more than double that price, Zhang Xiaohua clearly had no sincerity in cooperation.

"Ling Ming will be the guest star for Yang Kun's concert. One as the queen of the industry, the other as the king. With this combination, I think it's worth a least 90 million yuan. So, what do you say?"

It could be said that the fire that was originally in the heart of Director Liu suddenly vanished, and what replaced it was satisfaction.

Indeed, one was the queen and the other was the king of the industry currently. The two combined were bound to make the ratings explode.
