[Space] Xueba moves forward

Chapter 16

"Come on, sit down first. What do you want to drink?" Xu Shanling walked around the desk and greeted Zheng Meijia with a smile to sit down on the sofa.

"Sister Ling, plain water is fine." Zheng Meijia sat down.

"Xiao Li, help me get a glass of water."

"Okay, Miss Ling." Xiao Li turned around to pour water.

"Thank you." Zheng Meijia reached out to take the paper cup sideways.

"You're welcome, sister Ling, let's talk first, I'll go out first." Xiao Li said with a smile.

Xu Shanling nodded, and after watching Xiao Li go out, she turned to talk to Zheng Meijia about the script.

Zheng Meijia handed over the scripts of the last thirty units to Xu Shanling.The current length of the story is three and 10 minutes per episode, and the story of a unit is divided into two or three episodes.Now she has written a total of [-] units, at least [-] episodes. If it is broadcast weekly, it is not a problem to broadcast it for a year.

"Is there no ending yet?" Xu Shanling asked after flipping to the last unit of the story.

"Sister Ling, I do have a preliminary idea for the ending. But it depends on the actual situation. If the ratings are good, then it should be able to be made into a regular long-form series. This script was originally written when I thought about it, and I slowly accumulated it. So I haven't decided on the final number of episodes myself."

"I understand." Xu Shanling nodded.

She does have the idea of ​​turning "Reversal of [-]" into a long-running series. Her expectation for this drama is that it will be popular in the early stage, the ratings will stabilize in the middle and late stages, and the long-term profits will be considerable.Moreover, this drama has great potential in online promotion. Apart from its distribution in Hwaseong, some big video sites should also be very interested in the exclusive rights to broadcast it.

But the problem is.

Xu Shanling didn't want to sign the copyright of this drama to Huacheng Media.

But if she invests purely from her own studio, I am afraid that it will cause a certain period of financial constraints, and it is also a big gamble. If she loses, she will really lose everything.

In the past, it was not the case that the copyright of the TV series was signed in its own studio, but Huacheng Media also transferred part of the capital investment, so the profit was divided between the studio and the company according to the capital investment.In the current situation, Xu Shanling really doesn't want to have anything to do with this drama and Hwaseong, especially the copyright and profit.

But gritted her teeth, Xu Shanling didn't want to give up the show either.

Of course, it is impossible for her to treat Zheng Meijia badly in terms of price. Compared with the problem of actors, the most important thing now is to keep the screenwriter.It would be best if we can cooperate for a long time.Zheng Meijia is still very young, she has great potential, Xu Shanling naturally wants to sell favors.

"Xiao Zheng, for the scripts of the first forty units, I am willing to give you a price of 5 per episode, plus an 8% profit share. What do you think?" This is Xu Shanling's answer after consideration, and It's her limit.

The price of 5 an episode is just stuck in the lowest line of second-tier screenwriters. For Zheng Meijia, a newcomer, it is already very kind. This price is equivalent to the price of those screenwriters who have written satellite TV prime-time TV series, which is the screenwriting industry. second echelon.More importantly, Xu Shanling also gave an 8% profit share, which is only the right that those first-line screenwriters can have.

"Sister Ling, this price is no problem." Zheng Meijia nodded.

Xu Shanling breathed a sigh of relief. After the most important price issue was negotiated, the next thing would be much simpler.

"Then the price will be set on this. For other specific matters, I will draw up a contract for you to see before the next meeting. Next time you have to ask your parents to accompany you. In addition, you can draw up a starring role for a while." You can also look for important supporting roles, but it's best not to be an actor who is too top-notch." Xu Shanling smiled helplessly.
