Chapter 136, Making Money and Spending Money [Please subscribe, please vote]

Joint broadcast, as the name suggests, means that multiple TV stations broadcast together.

This is a very cost-effective method. It is good for the drama producers, as they can make more money, and it is also good for the TV stations, as they can save some money.

However, the quality requirements for dramas have become relatively higher, otherwise how can multiple TV stations be willing to pay for them?

At this time, Shen Lingyou asked Huo Wenxi: "How many families are there in total?"

Huo Wenxi was so excited that he seemed to be about to blurt out the answer, but this time he held back and said, "Guess it."

Shen Lingyou raised his left hand, stretched out five fingers, and said, "Five?"

At present, there are no policy restrictions on the broadcast of TV dramas on satellite channels in the mainland.

It was not until after 2003 that regulations were introduced that a TV series could be broadcast simultaneously on no more than four satellite TV stations, i.e. "one drama, four stars".

Then in 2015, new regulations were introduced again, requiring that no more than two comprehensive channels could broadcast the same TV series during prime time each night, and that no more than two episodes could be broadcast on the satellite TV's comprehensive channels during prime time each night. This was called "one drama, two stars." It was also from this time that the cost of purchasing TV series for TV stations increased significantly.

In other words, now theoretically all TV stations can broadcast a drama.

Take the TVB version of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" at the beginning of this year for example. A total of 5 provincial satellite TV stations and 34 local TV stations in the mainland broadcast it simultaneously, setting a record for the same TV series being broadcast at the same time.

Shen Lingyou didn't dare to think too outrageously.

That’s right, “Never Forget” will trigger a viewing frenzy.

But apart from him, everyone else only knew about it after it was broadcast.

Huo Wenxi smiled and said, "Just stretch out your right hand again. There are 10 companies in total, and they sold a total of 1390.5 million, which is equivalent to 51.5 per episode!"

Shen Lingyou, who is usually calm, couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this. After CCTV quoted the price, he thought that 50 per episode was not possible, so he lowered his expectation to 40 per episode. In the end, it exceeded by so much.

The cost was 600 million, which meant a profit of 790 million.

Among them, Chen Jiantian invested 200 million, Golden Shield Film and Television Culture Center invested 200 million, and the remaining 200 million was invested by him, which means that each party made a net profit of 263.3 million.

"My hard work has finally paid off. I'll have a snack tomorrow!" Shen Lingyou laughed.

"This is just the first income. There will be second and third rounds of broadcasting rights, overseas broadcasting rights, and future copyright operations. Millions are inevitable." Huo Wenxi was very happy to have achieved such results for the first time as a producer.

"Hearing what you said, I feel more motivated to film." Shen Lingyou smiled happily. He naturally knew that there would be more income in the future. The reason why he attached so much importance to copyright was to ensure long-term income.

“Now, I am looking forward to how much “Love Across Time and Space” can sell. With “Never Forget You” as a foundation, it will not be lower than 1390.5 million.” Huo Wenxi said with a smile on his face.

"That's about right." Shen Lingyou has this confidence.

Moreover, by then Jiang Qinqin will also become famous with "My Fair Princess 1", which will make "Love Across Time and Space" more valuable.

Japanese albums sold well, Cantonese albums sold well, and TV dramas made a lot of money, which made my wallet fatter.

After the money arrives, I will first transfer 20 yuan to my parents, and then buy the second courtyard house.

The remaining money can be used to invest in some TV shows and movies that are sure to make money.

He wanted to make a lot of money as quickly as possible so he could buy an office building for Xinghuo, buy or build a cinema chain, and enter the Korean market.

Before the millennium arrives, we must achieve some decent results.

At this time, Huo Wenxi was seen with his elbows on the stone table, his chin supported by his palms, looking at Shen Lingyou with flashing eyes.

She began to admire Shen Lingyou a little bit. This man brought so many surprises.

At the same time, she was more and more glad that she made the decision to stay.

Shen Lingyou can really make her the top of the industry, which is her ultimate pursuit in her career. It seems that she needs to treat Chen Jiantian to another meal.

As November approaches, the weather in Yanjing is in a transitional period. The temperature difference between morning and evening is quite large. Because it will take some time before the heating is provided, the wind is quite strong, and it is quite cold both indoors and outdoors.

When filming, the last thing I want to encounter is to wear less clothes when shooting a summer scene in winter, and wear more clothes when shooting a winter scene in summer.

Shen Lingyou and Liu Huohua are fine. They are at the age when they are full of energy and vigor. They are in good health and swimming in winter is not a problem for them.

Young girls like Jiang Qinqin and Hu Dajing were almost the same. They would bring hot water bottles when filming morning and night scenes, and use them to warm their hands and legs after finishing a scene.

"You really don't feel cold?"

Jiang Qinqin was curious. They were wearing almost the same number of clothes, so why weren't Shen Lingyou and Liu Huohua cold?

"A little bit, but it's within the acceptable range. Maybe we boys can withstand it better." Liu Huohua said.

"In winter, a boy's body is like a big furnace. It's not cold but very hot." Shen Lingyou said with a smile.

"Is it true?" Hu Dajing didn't quite believe this statement, but suddenly thought of something and said, "It seems that most girls are more afraid of cold than boys."

"This is not your illusion, because girls' hormones, smaller bodies, and slower metabolic rates all cause them to feel cold more easily than boys." Shen Lingyou said seriously.

"Haha, Ling You, we haven't seen each other for a few days, and you're already studying human anatomy? That's a big leap."

Suddenly, a voice came from behind them.

Shen Lingyou, Jiang Qinqin, Liu Huohua and Hu Dajing all turned their heads at the same time and looked towards the person who was speaking.

The result surprised them.

Huo Wenxi brought four people with him, and these four people were Zhang Guorong, Wang Jingfei, Lin Qingxia and Liu Jialing.

Any one of them would be enough to cause a sensation for the entire crew.

"Fuck, did I read that correctly?"

"If you're not mistaken, then I'm not mistaken either."

“They are all Hong Kong stars that I like.”

The staff around were gathered in twos and threes, whispering.

Some people were so excited that they danced and wanted to go over to ask for autographs.

Among them, only director Fan Mingxiu knew how difficult it was to bring these people together, unless it was Wang Jiawei.

And today, they all came for one person. What kind of charm does Shen Lingyou have?

"I asked Ah Xi, and she said you were filming here. We were bored, so we came over to check on you. I hope we didn't disturb you?" Zhang Guorong asked.

"How is that possible?" It was not surprising that he and Wang Jingfei came, but Shen Lingyou couldn't understand why Lin Qingxia and Liu Jialing also came. They had no intersection at all.

"Didn't Ah Xi say that he is the boss, the screenwriter, the protagonist, and the most senior in the group? It doesn't matter if we disturb him. No one dares to say anything." Wang Jingfei said with a smile.

"Yes, I'm the oldest, it's okay." Shen Lingyou glanced at Huo Wenxi, and she pretended not to see it.
