China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

Chapter 351 Are you crazy, Shandong TV? Can an excavator make a profit?!

"Thunder?"

Lu Peng sat in his office in Shanying. He felt a little strange and tense.

"Yes, Thunder."

Jin Liang's text message contained more than a dozen exclamation marks.
"Boss Lu, if Shandong TV can get this TV series, I think it will be profitable for at least ten years."

On the other end of the phone, Lu Peng was stunned.

He understood why Jin Liang said that, because Shandong TV's TV series were always being rebroadcast.

Many times, Journey to the West is the movie that is shown during the summer vacation.

When it comes to prime time at night, it’s all about tearing the Japanese apart with bare hands.

It can be said that it remains unchanged over the years.

But this time, Jin Liang's words made Lu Peng suddenly feel less relaxed.

Because he knew very well that if Jin Liang could say this, it might be very difficult to get this TV series and there would be many competitors.

"At the highest price."

Lu Peng's text messages became shorter and shorter, as if the fewer words, the bigger the matter.

He also responded with a lot of exclamation points, "Take him down."

Jin Liang sat dejectedly on the chair. He had no idea about the price.

But he knew very well that, except himself, no one knew about his abnormality. If he couldn't help the station get the TV series back, he would have to wait for it to be released.

He will regret it for a long time.

However, there was a voice in his heart that kept telling Jin Liang.

"Do you dare to make an offer?"

This question has been lingering in Jin Liang's mind, but the answer seems to be right on his lips.

dare not!

Yes, he didn’t even dare to quote a price for this TV series.

After taking a deep breath, Jin Liang finally calmed down.

……

For the current TV dramas in China, "The New Three Kingdoms", as a benchmark for TV dramas that have been aired this year, has set a standard for the industry.

People will be very optimistic about TV series that exceed this standard.

Among these, the most important parameter for evaluating the quality is type.

The industry is well aware that the most popular TV drama types at the moment must be spy films, costume films, and family dramas.

But among all these genres, there is definitely no type of film that pays tribute to the Republic of China.

Because it is a tribute film, it means the characters are complex.

Means group portrait.

It means more complexity.

The more complicated something is, the harder it is to stand out.

This is the consensus in the industry.

Film and television works and novels are often consistent in that they must highlight the presence of the protagonist.

Otherwise, it would be particularly boring without the protagonist.

This kind of TV series is not even as popular as the one about tearing the Japanese apart with bare hands.

For example, last year's new TV series "The Road of Life is Long and Difficult", directed by Zhang Li, is a TV series on revolutionary war history, but in the final analysis, it still tells the extraordinary life of Sun Honglei and his two siblings.

Few people choose to educate their audience in a dogmatic way.

Not to mention letting the audience understand the historical figures that appear everywhere.

This kind of TV series will definitely be a failure.

But after the three-day screening of the TV series "Awakening Age", the professionals who participated in the screening were completely speechless.

"This TV show is just average."

Director Liu, the head of the Chongqing TV channel, looked at the deputy director of Mango TV and said softly, "It's always moving, but the audience may not like it."

"I agree that this drama is about the intellectuals of that time, which may be a little difficult for our station's audience to accept."

The deputy director of Mango TV also echoed it, smacking his lips, and seemed not very satisfied.

Jin Liang heard the conversation between the two people from afar and felt a little happier.

Next to him were the heads of CCTV-1 and CCTV-8. The two had not spoken to each other since they finished watching the TV series.

Jin Liang had already made up his mind to win this TV series for Shandong TV, so he did not take the initiative to greet the two.

Although the three of them were not far away, their expressions were somewhat cold.

Neither of them knows what the other is thinking.

At this moment, the mood of the person in charge of Central One was completely up and down.

He knew that the most suitable platform for broadcasting this TV series was definitely CCTV.

However, CCTV has been used to being tough over the years, so he still needs to think about how much to offer for the time being.

If he reports too much, he will lose money. If he reports too little, he is afraid that the TV series will be snatched away by others.

"If I offer the price of The New Three Kingdoms, I'm afraid Guan Ling won't be able to accept it. After all, that TV series has more episodes. 90 episodes, almost twice as many as Awakening Age."

This is what everyone thought.

"Yang Yi wants this play."

The person in charge of CCTV-1 and the person in charge of CCTV-8 looked at each other and said.

"Yangba wants it too."

The two men looked at each other sternly, neither giving in.

Jin Liang heard it, but he also felt that except for the two people from CCTV, other TV stations seemed to have no clear intentions.

In this way, Shandong Satellite TV really has a chance to grab it.

After roughly understanding the situation, he quoted a price to Lu Peng.

The price of each episode of "The New Three Kingdoms" was less than 260 million, but the sales of the film alone totaled million.

The price of Guan Ling’s TV series is also enough to cover this price.

After all, if you buy it, it won't be difficult to make 100 million or 200 million in advertising revenue alone.

In Shandong, when Lu Peng saw Jin Liang's offer, his lips trembled a little, but he believed in Jin Liang's vision, so he agreed.

……

Everyone is talking about the bad things about this TV series.

In the industry, CCTV-1 and CCTV-8 clearly expressed their curiosity, while Shandong TV did not make any statement. As for the other TV stations, most of them found fault with the matter and made some mistakes.

According to many people, this time it will probably be CCTV and CCTV that are competing for the title.

Shandong TV, everyone subconsciously ignores it, it is a very poor TV station.

During the few days when the movie club was silent, the entertainment industry was also in turmoil.

First, the marriage certificate of Zheng Zhongji and Ah Saa was disclosed by the industry, shocking the whole of Hong Kong.

Hong Kong loves to hold press conferences. As soon as the marriage certificate was revealed, a press conference was held immediately, but it turned out to be a breakup announcement between the two.

They were so moved that they both shed tears.

They got married in secret and kept it low-key, but their breakup caused a huge uproar.

And Wang Fei, after several years of taking care of her husband and children, made a comeback and appeared in a CCTV show "Legend", which aroused the industry's enjoyment of her heavenly voice.

And soon, she will start her own concert cycle.

Among all these news, the one that received the most attention was "Awakening Age", or more precisely, everything about Guan Ling.

The box office of Inception is increasing day by day. The declaration of war on making animation is getting more and more intense.

The negotiations for the new TV series with major TV stations undoubtedly put Guan Ling in the spotlight.

But the voice from outside is still weak.

While the controversy is not too big, the quotation process for the new TV series has finally begun.

During the quotation process, people discovered that some TV stations had very sophisticated tricks. Director Liu from Chongqing TV Station was the first to run up and even shook hands with Guan Ling. It was obvious that they said they were not optimistic about the TV series.

But when it came to actually quoting the price and spending the money, the other party changed their attitude and ran away faster than a rabbit.

Jin Liang's eyes were filled with confusion.

"Playing dirty, huh?"

He was really confused. Director Liu from CQ City was the first one to find faults with our TV series. However, no one expected that instead of returning home quickly, he caught everyone off guard from the very beginning.

Later, the deputy director of Mango TV, who had originally said he was not interested, also appeared in front of everyone.
Right under everyone's noses, he went up to make the offer.

"Those who play tactics have evil hearts."

Jin Liang was numb.

He was a little panicked this time, and changed the price that he had agreed on during his previous communication with Chairman Lu Peng.

Jin Liang had been in Shandong before and had never experienced the process of snatching up a popular TV series, but with these two moves, he immediately learned the essence.

What you say is not important at all, what matters is whether you make an offer in the end.

Everyone who watched the TV series, all came here!

They kept saying no, but in the end they all came to quote.

Ten thousand alpacas passed by Jin Liang's mind.

He was a little unhappy, and he spoke directly to Director Liu from Chongqing, "Director Liu, didn't you say yesterday that you felt the quality of this TV series was average? Why are you giving me a quote now?"

"Director Jin, my words don't count in this matter. The director has made arrangements."

Director Liu was not embarrassed either.

The deputy director of Mango TV was watching closely, pretending not to see or hear anything.

Jin Liang himself laughed.

Shandong TV has never competed with everyone for TV dramas, but this time I really broadened my horizons.

……

But this made Jin Liang's recognition rise to a higher level.

Logically speaking, the TV channel director of Chongqing Satellite TV and the deputy director of Mango TV are both well-known figures. In order to get a TV series, they do not hesitate to use lies to paralyze their competitors.

It's really a bit embarrassing.

But this time, Jin Liang completely understood their actions in his heart!
He understood that they were doing the right thing.

"I still lack experience..."

Jin Liang chuckled.

I should have numbed them at the beginning, especially CCTV.

However, Jin Liang wanted to be in this TV series, so he had offered a high price. It was just that there were more competitors this time, so the psychological impact on him was not that great.
But for the two CCTVs, this competitiveness really makes them sigh.

After all, they are the ones being targeted.

"These TV stations are so afraid of us." The two CCTV executives smiled at each other. They naturally understood that those other TV stations were using tricks and they were definitely guarding against them.

As for Shandong TV, no one takes it seriously.

……

In fact, everyone can see the good of "Awakening Age".

This TV series is magnificent.

It not only makes people immersed in the grandeur of the plot, but also baptizes everyone's soul.

fascinating!

This TV series begins with the founding of Youth Magazine and ends with the revision of New Youth.

The historical period involved is a time of great clash of ideas.

It is the most complicated and complex historical picture.

Different intellectuals have friendships but also differences.

Different revolutionary patriots, in pursuit of truth, burning with passion,
From the selection of actors to the shaping of characters,
Everyone knows that this TV series has been carefully crafted.

Whether it is the dual core of Chen Du and Xiu or Li Da and Zhao.

This man looks unkempt, but his thoughts are vast and unrestrained, filled with a desire for new ideas. He is unruly, arrogant, and looking for a panacea to save the country.

He cared about the working people and was dedicated to the welfare of the people. He was brave and selfless and took the lead in introducing Marxism-Leninism and walked to the guillotine without hesitation.

It was the promoters Cai and Yuanpei who stood in the snow for the master's students and visited him three times at his cottage, which provided a stage for a group of cultural figures to spread the sparks of new ideas.

Or the characterization of Hu Shi and Lu Xun.

A man with a bitter mouth and a blunt pen, with no other extravagant hopes, wishes to become a famous general.

A man witnessed the blood-stained bread and created "Diary of a Madman" to comfort the warrior who was running in loneliness and made him not afraid to lead the way.

Among the retro school, there is no vilification or ridicule. The old-fashioned literati have a broad mind, upright character and a broad mind.

Gu Hongming, with his golden pigtail, talked at length about the spirit of the Chinese people.

There is also the spiritual inheritance of great men and prime ministers. From the time they were spiritually paved to the time they accepted the dual-core proposal, everything in history seems to converge here.

It can be said that,

Sculptures in wind and rain!

Each character has their own personal warmth. There are not only highlights of reform and innovation, saving the country and the people, but also a "down-to-earth" atmosphere of fireworks.

Even in character, they are flesh and blood.

They are living, three-dimensional people.

In this ensemble drama, even the excitement brought to people by ensemble dramas like "Three Kingdoms" is a little weaker.

……

“The TV station that won the contract for “Awakening Age” this time is Shandong TV.

The TV series price is 250 million!"

In fact, it was only a matter of time before a cooperation contract was signed after the screening, but the target audience and price of the TV series announced in the end really stunned the entire industry.

The people below were having a great time discussing this.

I wonder whether it will be CCTV or Mango TV that gets it.

Both of them are wealthy.

But when Shandong TV stole the chicken,

As Lingyun Media made the announcement on the stage, everyone at the scene was stunned.

Perhaps this can't be considered stealing, after all, this price left countless people at the scene silent.

"Is Shandong TV crazy?"

"Is Director Jin crazy? At this price, is Shandong TV's Lanxiang excavator ad sure to make a profit?"

"My head is buzzing. Where did this guy come from?"

CCTV-1 and CCTV-8 were united in their hatred of a common enemy this time. They looked at each other first, and then there was silence. Before, both of them wanted to take over this TV series, but all of a sudden, all the appeals became a joke.

It was originally an internal competition, but after a while, they became brothers in distress.

They were really a bit confused.

It's not just Shandong Satellite TV that is confused about taking on this TV series.

And the price.

Two hundred and fifty million?
More than five million per episode?
Crazy?
Can you earn back the copyright fees by using the Red Cross dolls, Lanxiang excavators, New Oriental chefs and Stanley fertilizers?
Who the hell believes this?!
