Ye Ming invested 32 million to shoot "Bright Sword". Originally, according to the original contract, in fact, on this issue, if Tianchao TV paid 30 million, it would be able to get the first-run screening rights. After all, this It is a co-produced TV series, and China Channel also put in a lot of effort, such as smoothing out the censorship script from the General Administration. If it weren’t for the golden name of China Channel, it would have been difficult to pass the review. But this time, Yang Fan was quite interesting and directly gave Ye Ming 32 million, which allowed Huihuang Film and Television to maintain its capital. This is the broadcasting rights for the first round of "Bright Sword". There is also the second round, and there are local satellite TVs. And what makes Ye Ming very happy is that Yang Fan said that it is still possible for this TV series to be broadcast on the set of Tianchao TV. If it can be broadcast on the set, it will definitely be a rhythm for Huihuang Film and Television to make a lot of money. . At this time, after Yang Fan left with satisfaction, Han Shanping said with a smile: "Ye Ming, you know the trade-offs, this is quite good. In fact, in our circle, you must be greedy when you should be greedy, like Ge When you are as greedy as Langtai, you should be generous, then you must have the pride of a Liangshan hero. If this is broadcast on one set, the satellite TV below will probably ask you to spend a lot of money to buy the rights to broadcast the second round. ?” With the platform of Tianchao TV, at this time, it is difficult for Huihuang Film and Television to become famous. At this time, Ye Ming was finally able to feel at ease. Huayi Brothers, Poly Huayi, and Sihai Film and Television were all established film and television companies. At this time, if Huihuang Film and Television were compared with these three companies, they were still newcomers, while Xinhua The company has national master Zhang Yimou in charge, which cannot be underestimated. Only Ye Ming's Brilliant Film and Television is rising rapidly, but its foundation is unstable. Otherwise, being banned from showing "Bright Sword" this time will not put Brilliant Film and Television in trouble. What does it mean to be an established giant? Not only do you need funds and celebrities to support your appearance, but the key is to have connections. For example, Ye Ming was banned from showing a TV series, and film companies, large and small, dared to withdraw their contracts with Huihuang Film and Television. This was bullying Ye Ming as a newcomer. But if you switch to an established domestic giant, its interests are intertwined and its relationship network is quite strong. Generally speaking, it will not encounter difficulties like Huihuang Film and Television for a period of time. This time, Ye Ming also truly understood this. And if Tianchao TV can show this TV series in one set, it will be a very big publicity for Huihuang Film and Television. In the future, Huihuang Film and Television will become one of the giants in the domestic entertainment industry. Those who are truly rich and have connections , a prison tycoon with stars supporting the scene. Just when the two were talking about what satellite TV station would come to their door next, Ye Ming received a call from Ai Qiuhua. This was a very exciting call. Ai Qiuhua said very politely: "Mr. Ye, first of all, I would like to congratulate your company on turning the crisis around. As your partners, we very much hope to see the healthy development of Huihuang Film and Television." Ye Ming was not polite, humming He said twice: "Some people at Warner Bros. must be so angry that they are thinking about how they can get something different from me. Is it because of your sincerity in cooperation? It's far from enough." The contract stipulates that we all work together to establish a theater chain, but you did not pay part of the expenses that you were supposed to bear in time." Ai Qiuhua seemed to say that he didn't know about this matter at all, and said doubtfully: "Really? This may be because there are some problems at the headquarters. You know, this matter is a cross-border cooperation after all, and there will be some problems in some connections. Yes, but don’t worry, Warner Bros. will not shirk the responsibilities we should bear. I will report to the board of directors to see where there are some problems. You know, in our company, even buying a roll of toilet paper is If you have to report something, it’s not uncommon for some accidents to happen.” Ye Ming complained here: "Dear Ms. Ai Qiuhua, I don't want accidents like this to always happen to me, otherwise I may have other ideas." This is what Ye Ming said to Ai Qiuhua. to express his dissatisfaction. Ai Qiuhua was naturally a loser and could tell what such complaints were about. Therefore, she immediately said: "Don't worry, we will handle it to your satisfaction. In addition, after the board of directors' decision, not only will you be invited to the UK to participate in the selection of actors for [Harry Potter], but also I will give you certain rights, but only five people in this world have such rights. Dear Ye, you should cherish an opportunity like this." Choosing a character is a very important step. If a movie chooses the characters correctly, then half of the success will be achieved with such a problem. For example, Arnold's "Terminator", Stallone's "Rambo" Pike and Hepburn's "Roman Holiday" are all classics among classics. Choosing a good character will greatly promote the movie. Therefore, the director who chooses the role also has a high say in Hollywood. The producer was able to give Ye Ming some rights, which surprised him very much. At that moment, Ye Ming said curiously: "Ms. Ai Qiuhua, do you mean that I have the right to choose the actor for the role?" Ai Qiuhua thought for a while and then said: "Well, it's more like this, right? But you also have to be within the required range. You are one of the five members who choose the role, and your opinion will be an important reference." Ye Ming understands this very well. If he chooses a Dongfang It’s too ridiculous for the little guy to perform [Harry Potter]. Warner Bros. wouldn't have thought of this. At this time, Ye Ming finally nodded and said: "If this is the case, then fine, happy cooperation, I hope to have a good start in the UK."
Ms. Ai Qiuhua breathed a long sigh of relief at this time. This matter was definitely not that easy to deal with. In such a situation, no matter how it was said, Ye Ming's real performance at this time That kind of business wisdom made both Wood and himself feel troubled for a while. Wood even said that he suffered twice in the hands of this young man. What kind of young man would it be to be able to sign a super gold mine like [Harry Potter] in advance? At this time, Ai Qiuhua had to say that he began to look forward to what kind of things would happen in the UK in the near future. The influence of Harry Potter in the West is slowly expanding, and it is even said that there will be a storm. But who knows, the owner of this storm is actually a Chinese with yellow skin and black eyes in the far east. Where are the people. Ye Ming also said with a happy face: "Now, I finally seized an opportunity. Ms. Ai Qiuhua, the president of Warner Bros. Asia, invited me to the UK to participate in the selection of roles for [Harry Potter]. It is something that is very worth looking forward to. I want to really take a look at how the big names in Hollywood select actors. This may be an inspiration for my company, but it is not impossible." The Western film market has always been said to have some prejudice against China. Therefore, it is rare for our country's stars to go out and really participate in the work of Hollywood. Bruce Lee really created a world for Chinese Kung Fu. Cheng Long himself is also an international superstar who has worked hard to become an international superstar. Well, Chow Yun-fat and Li Lianjie are also well-known actors in Hollywood, but at this time, they have not really gone too far in Hollywood. Therefore, it is said that there are very few Chinese stars who have participated in the work of Western films. And with the right to choose a character, this is even more surprising. Han Shanping nodded and said: "This matter is indeed worth clarifying. Our country's film origins have always had little say in some Hollywood conferences. This is a good start. Even if it is just a small taste, it is It’s the beginning of participation.” The country has always been thinking about how to go global. Ye Ming's unintentional move can be regarded as a good start. Perhaps Ye Ming was not aware of this, but Han Shanping saw a different beginning, which even meant that there was room for improvement. For Ye Ming to have such an opportunity, he should not thank the country, MTV, this V, that V and so on. Even in such a situation, Han Shanping believed that it might be upgraded to a political achievement project of his own, which was not impossible. Therefore, Han Shanping thought for a while and said: "Ye Ming, when can you leave for the UK?" Ye Ming thought for a while and said: "Well, I think I heard them say last time that there are still some things to prepare, maybe next time It will be mid-month, but the details have not been decided yet. I will be notified when it is decided and casting begins.” Originally, under such a situation, Han Shanping was actually worried that he would not have enough time, but now he no longer had to worry. Therefore, he thought about it before saying: "If you have such an invitation, it will be an opportunity. It will even be very useful for us to understand the shooting and production process of Western movies, especially the early stage process." Help. Therefore, I want to take advantage of your invitation and send people from the film studio to follow you. In this case, some people in our factory will also have a chance to learn." Ye Ming did not do this. He thought about it, but when he heard Han Shanping say this, Ye Ming quickly thought of a term, going abroad for business, this is a good excuse. However, Han Shanping was very helpful to him, and usually he never asked for anything. For Ye Ming, such things were just a piece of cake. Therefore, Ye Ming nodded and said: "There is no problem with this. Once I receive the invitation, I will notify you as soon as possible. The film studio should have time to prepare." The next day, all major media published the news that "Bright Sword" had passed the review and would appear in the prime time TV series. This is like a stone that stirs up thousands of waves. A pretty remarkable improvement. What an honor it is to be broadcast on the prime time of China Channel. When Ye Ming received a call from Yang Fan, he realized that the higher-ups might think that the time was not very mature. "Bright Sword" is just a tentative start. If it is broadcast on the TV drama channel of Tianchao TV, it will be a trial in all aspects. The sound of wind. Yang Fan said that he tried his best, but the result still did not change. Ye Ming was very open-minded and said that it was originally planned to be broadcast on the TV drama channel, so the news had no impact on him. Putting down the phone, Sister Fang Fang said with some unsatisfactory satisfaction: "Boss, just forget it. In such a matter, you should argue with reason, and you should learn to fight for your own rights." Right. If our TV series can be broadcast on one set, it will definitely become a hit, and our company's popularity will skyrocket by then." When I heard that the company's "Bright Sword" was banned from being released, Sister Fang Fang was actually under a lot of pressure. In such a situation, the gang of "Awkward" filmed and put on makeup and left together. This It is a big blow to Huihuang Film and Television. And Sister Fang Fang was actually under considerable pressure at this time. But now, it was finally clear. Therefore, Ye Ming thought it was completely normal for Sister Fang to vent her dissatisfaction a little. At this time, Ye Ming accepted it patiently and said: "The TV series of Tianchao TV is certainly good, but think about it, our TV series could have been a big hit. If it was broadcast on the TV series, the whole country could see it. When the time comes when we go to satellite TV, or even sell the rights to the second and third rounds of screenings in second- and third-tier cities, the price will not be able to go up. The set of Tianchao TV has almost seamless coverage across the country. Therefore, we Once a TV series is released, the price will be higher and lower in the last round of broadcasting. If it is broadcast on eight TV channels, its influence will be limited. Therefore, when it comes to a matter like this, in fact, when Sister Fang Fang heard such a calculation, she immediately smiled and said: "This relationship is great. On an issue like this, we want to squeeze out this TV series." The maximum residual value, boss, don’t worry, I know how to do it.” [Bright Sword] was broadcast on the TV drama production channel three days later. The ratings on the first day were 18%, which was a very good start. The ratings on the second day were 20%, which was an increase. Two percentage points is a good start. It has been said that two satellite TV stations have begun to directly contact Huihuang Film and Television to acquire the second round of broadcast rights. However, because the prices offered by the two satellite TV stations are relatively harsh, Ye Ming did not agree to further negotiations. On the third day, like this, the percentage rose to 121%, and it went up by another two percentage points. One result of this is that people are surprised. This is a very big leap. If it were not for the drama "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" before, then at this time, Ye Ming's Brilliant Film and Television should now pop the champagne to celebrate the ratings reaching 20. But because My Fair Princess is also starring Ye Ming, celebrating a 20% TV series now is not very good for Huihuang Film and Television. Are you celebrating because you look down on your boss? Have you ever seen the world? But the people at Huihuang Film and Television think this way, but the people at various satellite TV stations don’t think this way. China Channel has always been the leader of the country's media, and the TV series it broadcasts are the weather vane. At this time, whatever China Channel broadcasts will be broadcast by the satellite TV below, and it will definitely not make any mistakes. Therefore, it was seen that the ratings of the TV series were increased by more than 20%. This is a very good start. At this time, some people finally couldn't sit still. Someone had already come to contact Huihuang Film and Television. Instead of calling, they directly sent someone to contact Huihuang Film and Television to discuss the purchase of the second round of broadcast rights. Anyway, the first round is on the TV drama channel of Tianchao TV. There are still many places in China that cannot directly watch the TV drama channel, so some satellite TV stations are eagerly eyeing this "Bright Sword". Under such a situation, it can be said that this is a good start, a pretty good start. The ratings on the fourth day came out, 23%. This is a move towards a classic, and the audience is beginning to arouse their interest. It turns out that war movies can be shot like this. The new story mode of "Bright Sword" is a new beginning and a new impact for audiences across the country. At this point, various satellite TV stations have already stated that they understand very well what this is all about. Therefore, some people finally began to be unable to sit still. People from the three satellite TV stations gathered at Brilliant Film and Television, and at this time they already said that they were not talking about price issues. At this time, everyone knew very well that the price issue was all controlled by Brilliant Film and Television. In my hand, who made their TV series so awesome? It is worth looking forward to if the ratings of the TV series reach more than 20%. Moreover, regarding such an issue, at this time, with the guarantee of China Channel, there is definitely no big problem. This point is very clear to all satellite TV stations. Therefore, they are already preparing to be bloodletted by Brilliant Film and Television. At this point, everyone is waiting for a reply from Ye Ming. (To be continued)
