Perfect Life

Vol 4 Chapter 8: Harvest, red envelopes!

Remember [ ] in a second to provide you with wonderful novel reading.

Qi Jie's words were a bit thorny, and his tone seemed a little sour.

In the past two years, she was usually fine, but occasionally, she would suddenly appear in this state.

Li Qian blinked at her and said nothing.

But fortunately, Qi Jie just said a few words, and at this moment, her mind was not on this matter at all. At this moment, she walked over, put a stack of folders on Li Qian's desk, and said with a smile, "Let's take a look."

Li Qian took the folder, and when she saw her beautiful face, she couldn't help but smile: "I'm very happy?"

Qi Jie smiled and said, "The second round was all negotiated yesterday. This is the entire contract."

"Huh, fast enough!" Li Qian smiled and opened the folder.

The negotiation between Minghu Culture and the five TV stations on the second round of broadcasting rights of "The Legend of the New White Snake" has all ended - before the negotiation of "Super Girl" started, Qi Jie thought that it might take a while. The negotiation of "The Legend of the New White Snake", with the shocking and stable ratings of "The Legend of the New White Snake", in fact, it didn't take a few days to add it together.

The broadcasting rights for the second round were authorized to six TV stations: Hunan, Shandong, Liaoning, Shuntian, Dongfang, and Jiangsu.

Among these six companies, Hunan TV was sold as a package at the beginning, and it didn't even have a unit price, so in Qi Jie's report, it was only a side note, and the focus was on the remaining five.

This involves the question of whether "Legend of the New White Snake" can quickly return to its original capital, and even how much money can be earned. Of course, Li Qian is very concerned about it, so this document is also viewed with unprecedented seriousness.

SHANDONG Satellite TV was the first to negotiate. For Li Qian, Li's father's face is bigger than the sky. In order for his father to be more comfortable in Jinan Mansion, Li Qian doesn't care that such a TV series is sold more. Two million is still two million less, because in many cases, the relationship between people is not something that can be measured by money.

However, even if the Shandong side definitely won the second round at the lowest price, the contract finally negotiated by the two parties, the second round of authorization sold to them, is still as high as 7 million! - Don't think too much, it's really the lowest price!

Even if the price is said now, those satellite TV stations who have been swiped without even having a chance to enter the venue will be expected to come up with a price of 8 million or even higher once they hear about it!

Again, this is face value!

Of course, Li Qian knew that with Qi Jie's cleverness, since he let the big one go out cheaply, he would definitely send the words to the ears over there. Since it is sold well, he must let the other party understand. Row!

LIAONING Satellite TV is the second company. To a certain extent, Li Qian and Qi Jie both understand that there must be a face for Liao Liao in it - again, China is a society of personal feelings.

Of course, this is a matter of huge interest. Liao Liao will be willing to help the TV station in her hometown as much as possible, but even if it starts from her, she will never lose herself just to help. Benefit.

Therefore, with LIAONING Satellite TV's consistently low ratings and influence among many satellite TV stations, they can enter the game, but the price will be slightly higher - 9 million!

As of now, this is definitely a sky-high price in the domestic TV drama industry!

It's just a second-round broadcast right, it's as high as 9 million! You know, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" began to sell the broadcasting rights after a set of programs and TV channels of Huaxia TV were broadcast one after another, and the highest price sold was only 5.8 million!

Both sides are phenomenal TV series, but you must know that "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has eight or ninety episodes, and "The Legend of the New White Lady" has only forty episodes. If you calculate the price of a single episode, the difference between the two is obviously more than one level. !

The root of it is that Huaxia TV is too greedy. Relying on the good things in his hands, he has played it more than once in the past while desperately asking for the price while starting to broadcast on other stations. After three rounds of broadcasts, they continued to compete for ratings with the TV stations who paid for the broadcast rights. After a few times, everyone would rather not buy or eat this set.

Up to now, when everyone negotiated contracts with the TV drama production center of Huaxia TV, they all clearly demanded that the second round of broadcast time and satellite TV be limited, and they were all bitten and refused to pay high prices, even for "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". in this way.

However, when it comes to doing things in Minghu Culture, it will be a lot more open. Cooperation is cooperation, and everyone should not hold back. Li Qian and Qi Jie understand very well: this is a long-term business!

It is precisely because Minghu Culture negotiated with such a sincere attitude that almost every TV station that came into contact with them was able to accept it happily despite the blood.

Such as LIAONING satellite TV, it is very typical.

Although 9 million is really a sky-high price, you must know that in terms of cooperation qualifications, among the several satellite TV stations that have obtained the second round of broadcasting rights, with the rapid rise of HUNAN TV, Heshuntian, Dongfang, Shandong, Jiangsu Waiting for the consistent strength of TV stations, LIAONING TV will definitely be at the bottom. Taking out these 9 million means that they will get a lot of attention in the future, and they can even be on the same level as the above-mentioned major TV stations. Therefore, although the flesh hurts, But they didn't think the deal was a loss, as they readily signed the contract.

Then, Shuntian Satellite TV, needless to say, the old relationship is 8 million!

Although it is not cheap, in contrast, there is still a certain face factor here. It is not only for Zhang Yuping, the deputy director, but also for Guan Liang, an old friend who is about to return to study and become the director.

As for the remaining two, there is no face at all. After all, the two sides have not had deep contact before. At best, the artists from Minghu Culture used to have a show in the past, and they are all win-win cooperation. Therefore, Jiangsu and Dongfang two Home TV, it's 8.5 million!

...

After flipping through the documents one by one, Li Qian let out a slow sigh of relief.

The first round was packaged and sold to HUNAN TV for three broadcast rights, which was 15 million!

Five more were sold in the second round, for a total of 41 million!

Therefore, two rounds of sales have been sold out, and Minghu Culture has recorded a total of 56 million!

Needless to say, the cost of more than 30 million has been properly recovered, and now it has made a steady profit of 20 million!

And you must know that for the producer of a popular TV series, the income from the first round, the second round, and even the third round of sales actually only accounts for about half of the total income of a TV series. Not even half of it!

The following piecemeal authorizations, including continuing the next round of broadcasting authorizations, including a large number of sales to government-level TV stations in various places, don’t look at the fact that each sale is not a lot, but the key is that China is too big and there are too many TV stations. Now, the number is small and the price is low. If you can't stand it, there will be dozens or hundreds of them. So together, a popular TV series can even be obtained in these seemingly inconspicuous copyright sales. Income from rounds and rounds!

And then, there is an important big income, that is: video tape version, VCD version, DVD version!

These things, including all cultural and artistic products, in fact, once put on the industrial assembly line for production, its pure industrial cost is very small, but for a popular TV series, many people will be willing to spend dozens or even Buy it back at a high price of a few hundred yuan and relive it again, or simply want to collect it - this amount of money is not a lot, and it is a long-lasting sale!

In theory, a TV series that can leave its mark on the rings of the times can even sell for decades!

You know, the long tail effect is not a joke!

And because the cost has been fully recovered in the first two rounds, the above income that can be obtained at first sight is pure profit for Minghu Culture!

The first two rounds sold 56 million yuan, and the net profit was 20 million yuan. Then, as long as you do a little calculation, you will know that this TV series will bring 50 million to 80 million yuan to Minghu Culture in the next one or two years. Huge income!

Even if the second round of broadcasting can continue to maintain a high ratings, it is estimated that the subsequent third and fourth rounds of broadcasting rights will not be sold low. By that time, this income may even soar to more than 100 million!

Minghu Culture used to make records, and it was a big sale, and the money was fierce enough, but even if it was sold to the level of the Big Four Beauties and Liao Liao, it would never be possible to earn this level of income!

Even if "Once You" sells 20 million copies, the net profit it can bring to Minghu Culture is only around 50 million!

And you must know that for thirty years in the domestic music scene, there is only one "Once You"!

Like He Runqing's album, which sold 8 million and 10 million copies, it is already a top existence in China that can be counted in one slap. The profit that her album can bring to the company is only 15 million. to twenty million.

Therefore, after reading this information, even Li Qian knew that as long as the first shot was fired, "Legend of the New White Snake" would definitely bring huge profits to himself and Minghu Culture.

Moreover, when the two sides are compared, we can more deeply realize how pitted the package price given by Zhao Bingyuan on behalf of Huaxia TV at the beginning!

You must know that this is only a calculation of economic income. After rejecting Huaxia TV's offer, he chose to operate the broadcast and sales of this TV series by himself. It is said that the gains are not just the economic benefits that are visible to the eyes!

The popularity has started, not only Li Qian's popularity as a director has started, but the signboard "Minghu Culture Production" has also become a hit. 》Earning hundreds of millions more is even more important!

Then, thanks to the fire and big sales of "The Legend of the New White Snake", Minghu Culture now has not only become a strategic partner with HUNAN Satellite TV, but also the major TV stations took the initiative to come to buy, and also let Minghu Culture sit in Shuntianfu. If you move, you will quickly spread your personal network to the whole country!

And then it is conceivable that when the second round starts, as long as the ratings are considerable, there will only be more TV stations large and small who come to buy the third and fourth rounds, as well as the subsequent unlimited broadcast rights. !

In the short term, this represents a huge amount of income, but in the long run, it means that Minghu Culture has successfully developed its own TV drama sales channels!

This is what a TV series that is so popular as "The Legend of the New White Snake" can get!

...

After reading the information, Li Qian smiled slowly, with indescribable satisfaction in his smile.

Putting down the documents, he looked at Qi Jie with a smile, and said sincerely, "These days... I've worked hard for you."

Qi Jie smiled, "You also know that I work hard!"

She is obviously in a good mood. As the person who negotiated this single contract with her own hands, and as a person who had invested tens of millions in Li Qian in one fell swoop to make a willful filming of a TV series, she was very worried at this moment. Her excitement was obviously no less than that of Li Qian! There are even more emotions that roll over!

At this time, she originally wanted to take the opportunity to make a joke, but when the words came to her mouth, she couldn't help but said, "Actually, you are working harder, I know, filming is not easy. !"

Li Qian was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

Then, he joked slightly: "Don't worry about it now? I'm going to make another TV series later, you won't object, right?"

Qi Jie glanced at him subconsciously when she heard the words, and said this at this time, isn't this pure shyness?

Investing 30 million, the return is a net profit of hundreds of millions, and adding up, from the motion, to the shooting, to the editing, it actually took less than a year. This return on investment, to be honest, is in the contract. Before it really landed, Qi Jie couldn't imagine it!

So, she said angrily, "I don't object anymore, I don't object anymore. In the future, what you want to do in the future, Mr. Li, I will raise my hands and feet in favor without asking the reason, even if you let me jump off the building... Okay?"

Li Qian rarely smiled with some smugness.

To say that he is unhappy after earning so much money would definitely be pretentious, but to be honest, he is happy to earn a lot of money, but seeing Qi Jie so happy, he finds that he actually thinks it will make him happier!

However, there were some lingering feelings in my heart, and it was only a little bit of turbulence. Soon, Li Qian was watching the spirit and said with a smile: "Since the sales are good, then we can't be stingy, the company is up and down, And the staff and actors of the original crew, you count, everyone will send a red envelope! The total number... let's control it to around 10 million!"

Qi Jie was stunned for a moment.

Giving red envelopes is the meaning of the title. People who eat alone will not be able to eat for a long time, and they will be jealous of others! But Li Qian took out 10 million to give out red envelopes when he opened his mouth, but he still startled her.

Ten million ah this is!

If I remember correctly, the total remuneration of all the actors of "The Legend of the New White Snake" is only more than 6 million! And the salaries of all the members of the crew are even less than two million!

Sending out such a red envelope basically means giving everyone another salary!

However, after working with Li Qian for the past few years, she was already quite familiar with Li Qian's way of doing things. After thinking about it, she quickly understood what Li Qian meant.

If you continue to be in the music scene, of course you don't have to be so publicized, because the power of Minghu culture is well known, and Minghu culture is also what everyone in the entire singer circle yearns for! But for the film and television industry, Minghu Culture is still a newcomer!

Now "Legend of the New White Lady" is an instant hit, but neither Li Qian nor Qi Jie will forget the fact that they were repeatedly rejected during the filming. Big red envelopes, just to help pave the way for the next film and television production!

You must know that it is impossible to limit the news to a small circle with such a large sum of money. Exposure and rumors are almost inevitable - just to let the news spread by itself and let the whole circle see it. See the handwriting of Minghu Culture!

For the actors and staff of "Legend of the New White Snake", the fact that there are extra red envelopes in addition to the remuneration and salary is already a great event in itself, which can greatly improve the favorability of Minghu culture, not to mention This red envelope is even as big as his own salary!

It is conceivable that the favorability level must have exploded directly!

After all, in this era, money means sincerity!

For more actors in this circle who have not worked together, this is equivalent to a big advertisement!

Look, this is our Minghu culture!

Cooperating with us, not only is it very likely to be an instant hit, but as long as we make money, we will never treat our partners badly! Rich, everyone earns! We are not a one-shot deal!

As the eyes turned, Qi Jie quickly guessed Li Qian's intentions, then nodded and said, "Okay!"

At this moment, thinking of the stars who used all kinds of bizarre excuses to refuse, Qi Jie was suddenly a little excited, and couldn't wait to know that after learning that Minghu Culture was so generous, How would you feel!

Of course, she knew that doing so was not without its side effects!

Chinese people have always paid attention to whether it is a trivial matter to reveal wealth or not. The problem is that your TV series are selling well, and then you send red envelopes like this. What should other film and television companies do? Can't you all grit your teeth in hatred?

You are forcing everyone to give out red envelopes like you! That's money!

With the money in hand, who is willing to spit out UU reading www.uukanshu.com?

Therefore, while brushing the goodwill among the cast and crew, there must be a wave of disgust from the film and television companies that are in the same industry!

But Qi Jie doesn't care!

Colleagues are enemies!

Moreover, after following Li Qian step by step over the past few years, she has already understood a truth: the road is your own, and you will never be supported by everyone just because you want to have a good relationship with everyone. a handful!

There is no good intentions in the conflict of interests!
