Chapter two hundred and ninety-eight barbecue stalls big business
Zhu Wei posted Zhang Hehuan's press release overnight, including an apology for Zhao Liying's false report. Zhao Liying's agency did not have time to react. After all, Zhao Liying is still a little artist now. In the company's opinion, it is not a bad thing to have some bad news. At least it can ignite her popularity, so the company did not make any clarification as soon as possible.
Zhao Liying, who learned that Zhang Hehuan was involved in this matter and helped her calm the storm, called her to express her gratitude. Zhang Hehuan also stepped on her agency. Zhang Hehuan really wanted to sign Zhao Liying, the star of tomorrow, into her company, but at present, her film and television agency was caught by Hairun, and it was unlikely that she would like to dig her over.
The situation has not developed to the worst. Judging from the meeting of Sun Shuli in the General Administration, the ancient restriction order that had been circulating before was not implemented immediately. The superior departments only proposed that all parties should strictly inspect and discipline themselves, and the competent departments at all levels will also strengthen supervision and cannot allow bad dramas to fly. They should carry forward the spirit of struggle in the new era and promote positive energy.
After the meeting, Sun Shuli breathed a sigh of relief from his heart. As long as the ancient restriction order was not implemented clearly, it was good news for him. He has always been confident in the quality of "The Legend of Qin". As long as the filming is successfully completed within the plan, he can win a full promotion period and sell the drama.
He only found out about Zhao Liying's black material and Chen Yanxi's scandal later, but Zhang Hehuan had helped to put out the fire. Sun Shuli was also quite curious about Zhang Hehuan being able to deal with the paparazzi Zhu Wei. Who in the circle doesn't know how difficult it is for that guy to deal with it? I really don't know how Zhang Hehuan asked him to come out to clarify and apologize.
Originally, Sun Shuli planned to stay for three days, but because he wanted to meet Youku COO Xu Mingfeng, he postponed his return date.
Zhang Hehuan made an appointment with Xu Mingfeng in advance. On the day Xu Mingfeng arrived in Beijing, he came to the Nanjiang Beijing Office. In the past, he lived in Beijing for four seasons, but this time Zhang Hehuan took the initiative to arrange a residence for him, saying that he would drink and chat with him all night long.
Xu Mingfeng happened to have many things to communicate with Zhang Hehuan, so he followed his arrangements.
The Beijing Office has a mysterious official nature for ordinary people. Even business elites like Xu Mingfeng are no exception. After checking in, I found that the accommodation conditions are absolutely not bad than the four seasons. It is more convenient. The small canteen inside is first-class and has first-class taste. It is said that even the ingredients are from Pingjiang. It is not easy to find such authentic Huaiyang cuisine in Beijing.
Zhang Hehuan invited Sun Shuli, who asked Zheng Guangyuan, director of the Beijing Office, to accompany Xu Mingfeng. The meal was already quite good.
After three glasses of wine, Sun Shuli asked about their cooperation in a new variety show.
Xu Mingfeng smiled and said, "The investment promotion is very smooth at the moment, but the popularity of auditions is not too high. I came here this time and wanted to discuss something with Director Zhang. At the same time, Pingjiang Satellite TV and Qiyi jointly produced a "Sound Movement of China" just in time with our new variety show. I had a preliminary understanding of their investment and auditions. Moreover, the investment promotion situation is even better than that of us."
Zhang Hehuan laughed: "Why, Mr. Xu is a little unconfident?"
Xu Mingfeng said: "There is confidence, but I am considering a very important thing. If two music talent shows are on the same schedule, will it cause mutual consumption and diversion to each other, and affect the ratings of both parties? Sun Tai, you are a senior in this field, please give me some advice."
Sun Shuli said: "It is indeed possible that Pingjiang TV and Blue TV have loyal audiences. These loyal audiences usually form habitual ratings. They rarely watch programs on other stations unless there is a phenomenal program. What I mean is that the ratings must be at least among the top three in the entire network."
Zhang Hehuan said: "What if both variety shows are among the top three in the entire network?"
Sun Shuli said: "If the gap is not big, these loyal viewers will still keep their habitual channels, but there are still some viewers who are usually passers-by. They rarely pay attention to whether you are Lizhi Channel or Mango Channel. They watch the program. As long as they think the program is attractive, they will watch it and become loyal viewers of this program. In fact, passers-by determines whether the program can become a hit."
Zheng Guangyuan said: "I am a passerby audience. I watch the news broadcast every day. It's the same on any station, and I don't choose it."
Sun Shuli smiled and said, "You have no choice in that time period."
Several people laughed.
Xu Mingfeng said: "I mean to make some adjustments to the schedule, such as upgrading the schedule or postponing it back for a period of time."
Sun Shuli said: "It is not feasible to postpone it. If "Sound Movement of China" is popular, then others will only compare your variety shows in the future. They will preconceive their ideas and will feel that your skills are not as good as others."
Xu Mingfeng said: "There is no airtight wall in the world. If we upgrade, I guess Pingjiang Satellite TV will also respond."
Zheng Guangyuan said: "There is also the possibility of mutual achievement, just like in the field, you can only perform well when competing with experts."
Xu Mingfeng really cared about Zhang Hehuan's opinion. He drank a glass of wine with Zhang Hehuan and said, "What is Director Zhang's opinion?"
Zhang Hehuan said: "When you meet on a narrow road, you may not be able to win by spending more money. I agree with Director Zheng's opinion. Without competition, we cannot exert our skills, and without comparison, we cannot show our advantages. I have confidence in this variety show. I also know the exhibition area on "Sound Moving China". I personally think they will be beaten unstoppable by us this summer."
Sun Shuli was used to Zhang Hehuan's way of speaking. Xu Mingfeng and Zheng Guangyuan were thinking in their hearts that this guy was so sarcastic. Even if he had confidence to win, he seemed a bit too arrogant to beat other people's programs.
However, Zhang Hehuan's words undoubtedly increased Xu Mingfeng's confidence. In fact, he originally wanted to fight this battle with the other party, but was just worried about the possible diversion of audiences. Now that Zhang Hehuan said this, he had no reason to make concessions.
If the show is not strong enough, it must be verified through the market. If "Sound Moves" is defeated head-on, then the ace status of variety shows this summer will undoubtedly be laid.
Zhang Hehuan took the initiative to mention the online broadcast rights of "The Legend of Qin", and on the surface he told Sun Shuli that he would like to win the exclusive online broadcast rights.
Xu Mingfeng is not a fool either. He had proposed to use 50 million to win the online broadcast rights of "The Legend of Qin" but recently he also heard that the General Administration would tighten the shooting of costume dramas, especially the time-travel dramas, and said with a smile: "How is the shooting progress of "The Legend of Qin"?"
Zhang Hehuan said: "Everything is normal. I guess the shooting will be completed in another month, and then it will enter the later stage. According to the feedback from this TV week, it is still very good."
Xu Mingfeng nodded and did not mention the purchase of online broadcast rights. After all, there are many good dramas waiting for him to choose now, so there is no need to spend a lot of money to buy a costume time travel drama at this sensitive moment.
Xu Mingfeng did not mention it, and Zhang Hehuan no longer took the initiative to sell it. If you buy and sell it, you have to be willing to buy and sell it. If you are in a hurry to sell, you will definitely see that you are eager to take it off. Even if you buy it, it will lower your price.
After attending the meeting of the General Administration, Sun Shuli's mood was much more stable. For him, there was still time. Before the official restriction order came out, the drama should be sold.
After dinner, Xu Mingfeng took the initiative to invite Zhang Hehuan to go to the nearby skewers. There was a snack street behind the Beijing Office. Zhang Hehuan knew that the family was not bad. As soon as they arrived, Zhang Hehuan received a call from Guo Kaixuan.
Guo Kaixuan found Zhang Hehuan for the sake of the TV series. He passed the promotional film and behind-the-scenes of "The Legend of Qin" to the senior management. After watching the Qiyi senior management, he thought that the drama could still be done. After receiving the reply, Guo Kaixuan called Zhang Hehuan as soon as possible, mainly because he wanted to ask him to meet him tomorrow.
Zhang Hehuan glanced at Xu Mingfeng opposite him, had an idea in his mind, and smiled and said, "Brother Guo, I have time now, and I'm going to eat skewers with a friend. Why don't you come here and let's have some beer together."
Guo Kaixuan is a good wine person. He agreed as soon as he heard this, and asked about the location. He arrived at the place in less than half an hour.
Zhang Hehuan didn't tell Xu Mingfeng who the person was. He probably knew each other in almost every 10. As expected, as soon as Guo Kaixuan arrived, Xu Mingfeng recognized him. Now there are Ku and Qiyi, which can be said to be the two giants in the online video market. They often meet. Although Guo Kaixuan is not as good as Xu Mingfeng in the level, he is responsible for the market. Basically, he will participate in domestic activities, and naturally has a lot of dealings with Xu Mingfeng.
Guo Kaixuan laughed: "Mr. Xu, oh, Hehuan, you didn't say it earlier. If I had known Mr. Xu was there, I'd be able to fly over."
Xu Mingfeng smiled and said, "It turns out that you two know each other, that's the best." He thought to himself that Zhang Hehuan deliberately brought them together, and even talked about "Sound Asia" and "The Voice of China" at night. Now the real person has met it.
After sitting down, Guo Kaixuan drank two large glasses of beer first, saying that he would punish himself for two glasses if he was late.
Zhang Hehuan said deliberately: "Brother Guo, everyone is friends, you don't have to avoid it, and then talk about "The Legend of Qin".
Guo Kaixuan nodded and said, "Our company executives have initially unified their opinions and decided to win the exclusive broadcast rights of this drama and buy out."
Xu Mingfeng thought that Zhang Hehuan should have found a stake to sell "The Legend of Qin" at a good price.
Zhang Hehuan said: "Brother Guo, since we are our own people, I will also say straight to the point. Mr. Xu also wants to buy out the exclusive online broadcast rights of "Xu Qin Ji", and the price he gave was 50 million."
Xu Mingfeng laughed secretly. This kid is so clever. He is holding an auction at the barbecue stall. No one else would have thought that they are now negotiating a business worth tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars.
