The Liar Who Invaded the Entertainment Industry

After the Spring Festival of New Year, as Xiaoxing Xi sang "Where is the road" all the way west, Mengren seemed to start to recite words.

The two projects launched last year were first that the sale of "Little Devil" to CCTV Children's Channel was blocked.

After the broadcasting rights of "Little Devil" were sold, it was ensured that it could still be broadcast on Shanghai Satellite TV. However, "Soldier Assault" had another problem.

In Yenching in late April, spring flowers bloom and warblers fly, which is a good time of year.

Colonel Li Yang, who was called the "CEO" of military TV series by the domestic film and television industry, once again came to Yenching.

afternoon.

The sun is warm.

Starbucks coffee shop.

Mai Xiaoyu and Li Yang sat by the window, enjoying coffee and sunbathing.

"CCTV gave an answer?" Mai Xiaoyu asked.

Li Yang nodded: "Sorry."

"Soldier Assault", this military inspirational drama based on military action and youth inspiration, was unanimously looked down upon by the industry before the project was launched.

The two investors, President Han and President Luo, who once benefited a lot from investing in "Bright Sword", are not interested in investing in the 30-episode TV series of Mengren.

CCTV also looks down on it.

The "Soldiers Assault" filmed in Beijing, Kunming in Yunnan, Malong in Qujing, and Chongzhou in Chengdu, was successfully completed at the end of the year.

As early as during the filming of "Soldiers Assault", Li Yang went to CCTV to inquire about the situation.

His friends on CCTV replied like this: "The actors in this film are not big names, and there are no actresses at all. What do you think you watched in this show?"

In early April, Li Yang sent the cut flowers to CCTV again, and waited for many days without any news.

Although he had guessed the final result, he still called a friend of CCTV and finally got an accurate reply: "No."

Without saying the reason, it just doesn't work.

The reason is probably what his previous CCTV friends said, there is no leading actor, no actress, no actress in the show, what are the audience watching?

Not to mention one set of CCTV, eight sets of CCTV will not work either!

Li Yang took a sip of coffee: "It seems that I can only take the provincial, municipal and Taiwanese road."

He has no idea about this TV show.

As early as when he got the book, he judged that the show lacked ratings and had no market selling point at all-or that said, the actor is not a big name, and there is no actress. Why should the audience attract the audience to watch this show?

At the beginning, he was willing to film "Soldiers Assault" with Mengren, not because the troops did not need to invest real money, but because of his experience during the period when he was working as a political commissar of the regiment and his special emotional collision with life in the barracks.

"...Leaving the army originally had a farewell ceremony. More than two thousand soldiers lined up on both sides of the entrance of the camp. I had to walk out of the camp through the corridors of the soldiers from the barracks. I definitely couldn't stand the scene, so I left in the middle of the night. I miss it very much. During that period, so I wanted to make this drama."

This is what he said when he chatted with the producer of "Soldiers Assault", because the producers were also not optimistic about "Soldier Assault."

The producer is also an old driver in the industry.

In his opinion, Mengren's 10 million investment in film and television is relatively difficult to maintain; it is extremely difficult to make a slight profit; he is more sure of losing as little as possible.

Therefore, Li Yang mentioned the market in his discourse.

In his opinion, don't pursue any satellite broadcasts, as long as a TV station is willing to buy it.

Even if the provincial and Taiwan satellite TV is unwilling to buy, as long as the market is willing to buy, it can be guaranteed that a platform is willing to broadcast, even if the price is lower, the single episode price is 50,000 to 60,000, and the 30 episodes of "Soldier Assault" can recover one or two million investment.

The key is to wait for "Soldiers Assault" to be broadcast, and according to the ratings of the local station, bring the data to discuss with the third and fourth line satellite TV. The price is set at a low point, eighty-nine thousand one episode, if two satellite TVs are willing to be on the stars for the first time, they will be able to recover the investment of about five million yuan.

When the time comes, plus the cost of buying the online broadcast rights of the video site, and the cost of buying the second and third rounds of broadcast rights by other local and municipal TV stations, try hard to get together, and basically guarantee a return on investment of 10 million.

"Ms. Li, don't you need to be so pessimistic, do you want to find the market?" Mai Xiaoyu asked, dubiously.

Li Yangqi said: "I didn't see it, you are still an optimist."

"It's because I have confidence in this show. It doesn't matter if CCTV doesn't buy it. Except for "Bright Sword", all of our cute TV shows are premiered on Star Satellite TV, and the ratings have never been worse."

For a TV series to become popular, it cannot be broadcast on Star Satellite TV.

The terrestrial channel is not bad, but is limited by the coverage area and cannot cover the whole country like Shanghai Satellite TV.

Even if there is a fire on the local stations, it will eventually be broadcast to national audiences through Shanghai Satellite TV, in order to truly realize the popularity of TV dramas.

At the time CCTV Children's Channel did not want "Little Devil", Mai Xiaoyu made this idea. It's just that Zhou Zhe's appearance helped him save the redundant links in the middle.

And now "Soldiers Assault"...Mai Xiaoyu will not even consider broadcasting it on local channels.

In a word, except for the broadcast on the star, don't think about it!

He's done all the calculations. Dolphin TV is definitely okay; Yanjing TV... is not a big problem; if he works hard, Litchi TV is also very promising.

There are now three satellite TVs, and they are not far behind the full allocation of "Four-Star Simulcast".

The second-round broadcast rights are not sold in a hurry. When the first-round ratings increase, TV stations will naturally snap up the second-round and third-round broadcast rights. At that time, Mengren can still bid on the ground to make up for the loss caused by the slightly lower price of the first broadcast rights.

"Ms. Li, leave the rest to me. Finish the post-production on your side as soon as possible, and then wait for the future to divide the money."

Mai Xiaoyu was full of confidence, and Li Yang was somewhat infected.

"That's OK, I'll keep a close eye on the post-production area, and it's up to you in the broadcast platform area. Haha, it's pretty fun to work with you."

"Then I hope we will have a chance to cooperate in the future." Mai Xiaoyu stretched out his right hand.

Li Yang froze for a moment, and shook his hand: "I believe there will be a chance, after all, it is not common for a generous gold master like you, haha."

…

Mai Xiaoyu knows very well that "Soldier Assault" lacks commercial elements and is not easy to sell.

At first, he wanted to use Li Yang's energy to replicate the operating mode of "Bright Sword": selling it to CCTV for its exclusive premiere at a high price, and selling it to Shanghai Satellite TV in the second round.

It didn't seem so easy now, so he had to go out on his own.

After finishing the production of the film, he saw it.

The actors, pictures, etc. must be different, but the overall situation is similar to that in his strange dream, so he is confident.

After separating from Li Yang, Mai Xiaoyu did not return to the company, but went to Zhang Xiaoquan's house.

In the past two months, Zhang Xiaoquan has been making up for the relevant knowledge and skills of directors, and there is a lot of pressure across the industry. From time to time, Mai Xiaoyu used to tease him to help him decompress.

After having dinner at Zhang Xiaoquan's house, he drank a few more glasses of wine; before leaving, he asked Shen Fei to take care of Zhang Xiaoquan's body, and then Mai Xiaoyu drove home.

It was around nine o'clock in the evening when he got home, Mai Xiaoyu took a shower, sat in the study and took out the paper and pen for comics, UU reading www.uukanshu.com began the "photocopying" work of "Hua Nan" and "Huo Ying".

After "Meteor Garden" was broadcast overseas, he successfully sold the animation adaptation rights of "Hanao" to a famous Japanese animation production company at a high price.

The animation and game adaptation rights of "Naruto" have long been sold to Japanese companies at high prices. The first theatrical version of "Naruto" was also released in Japan last summer, and the second one has also been produced, only to be released this summer.

It can be said that these two comics have brought him huge private benefits, and he will never give up.

After the humanoid copier was warmed up and put into high-speed operation, he suddenly remembered the ringing of the telephone, interrupting his copying work.

Who, calling me so late, really picks the time.

Mai Xiaoyu murmured, picked up the Yali mobile phone, the caller ID: Zhao Liying.

"Hey?"

"Mr. Mai, this is Zhao Liying, can you come to the dormitory..." (To be continued.)
