Rebirth 1981 starts with saving the sisters from the neighboring village.

In the next two days, Zhou Yun and Zhou Ling were busy with graduation procedures and moving some things into the courtyard.

He went to buy some daily necessities for the sisters.

When I came back in the morning, I met Qin Wanqiu returning from Xiangjiang.

She stood in front of the courtyard door, holding a briefcase and wearing a black professional suit.

Simple and capable, elegant and dignified, full of royal temperament.

Perhaps the suit was a bit tight, and the big bunny on her chest was squeezed, not only revealing a deep ravine, but also seeming to burst the buttons.

The long, straight legs are straight and round under the black stockings, making people unable to take their eyes away.

"Wanqiu is here, let's go into the house."

Peng Wanhua said hello.

Qin Wanqiu smiled solemnly and followed him into the courtyard.

Peng Wanhua closed the door with his backhand.

When she saw this, she remembered the hazy battle between the two of them before. Now that they were alone again, her pretty face suddenly turned red.

Feeling a little uncomfortable, she explained her next negotiation ideas for investing in "Dream of Red Mansions".

“The main condition is to buy shares and sponsor the title as the first condition. If the other party does not agree, we will share the cost in the form of joint sponsorship and title sponsorship.

Including Red Star Records, Wanwei Electronics, Zhenxiang Roasted Seeds, Wonder Clothing, and Jianlibao. "

Peng Wanhua made tea while listening to her explanation.

After listening, he nodded slightly.

The analysis said: “It may be a bit difficult to invest in shares, because of the institutional relationship, it may not be easy to acquire shares.

I have an idea. "

As he spoke, he handed her the teacup filled with tea.

During the process of passing the tea, I found that her fingers were slender, warm and delicate, and she could be called a slender hand.

Suddenly a small fire rose in my heart.

"Say." Qin Wanqiu took the teacup.

Peng Wanhua suppressed his thoughts and continued: "As far as I know, the final product after the crew edits it this time is estimated to be no more than forty episodes.

Think about it, for such a classic work, only less than forty episodes were cut out after filming. Isn’t it a waste of those classic plots?

I think in addition to the conditions you mentioned, one more thing needs to be added, allowing the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions" to edit a version of 100 to 120 episodes. "

He remembered that among the four famous works produced by CCTV, there were basically some criticisms.

Among them, shortness is the most criticized point.

Among them, only "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" filmed a full 84 episodes, completely filming 120 chapters of the novel.

Widely praised by the public.

Others are short.

For example, "Water Margin" only had 43 episodes filmed, which is the worst filmed among the four famous classics. Compared with the Shandong version, it is simply far behind.

Many important figures were not filmed, such as Guan Sheng, Zhang Qing, etc., many of 36 Tiangang were not filmed, let alone 72 Disha.

In short, the story was adapted too quickly and hastily, and the action scenes were too simple, making it difficult to accept.

There is also "Journey to the West". Only 25 episodes were filmed at the beginning. After the broadcast, the ratings reached nearly 90%.

But because it was too short, everyone couldn’t watch it enough.

Later, in 1998, director Yang Jie filmed the sequel to "Journey to the West", but the result was not satisfactory.

As for "A Dream of Red Mansions".

The same problem exists.

The original story was cut too much, leaving it incomplete in many places.

Many exciting plots were not filmed.

For example, Jia Baoyu's sleepwalking in a fantasy land was not filmed, Qin Zhong's scene was filmed and then deleted, many scenes of poetry writing in the Grand View Garden were not filmed, including Shi Xiangyun's crab feast, and the plot of the last forty episodes seemed to be fast forwarded. Same.

In the end, 36 episodes were cut out.

In short, the filming is incomplete and it doesn’t feel like a complete story.

Later, Station B, a gathering place for young people, introduced all four dramas from CCTV.

According to the statistics, while "Water Margin" and "Dream of Red Mansions" had about 2.7 million views, "Journey to the West" had nearly million views, and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" had the highest number of views, reaching an astonishing million!

Obviously, the more complete the story, the more popular it is.

Therefore, in order to save the shortness of "Dream of Red Mansions", Peng Wanhua felt that he needed to create a version with a complete plot.

Even if plots like Taixu Illusion are not allowed to be broadcast in mainland China, then they won’t be broadcast.

The same goes for broadcasting in Xiangjiang.

Anyway, Red Star now has the TV station ATV, so it doesn’t have to worry about lack of channels.

Not only is there no need to worry, it is estimated that after the broadcast, the advertising fees alone will make a fortune.

He told Qin Wanqiu his plan.

"Well, this is better!"

Qin Wanqiu clapped her hands in agreement.

"But if you shoot more, will you need a bigger budget?"

Qin Wanqiu then expressed her worries.

"What do you think the budget of "Dream of Red Mansions" is now?"

Peng Wanhua asked with a smile.

"It should be at least 10 million yuan, right?" Qin Wanqiu guessed.

"Haha, I only gave 3.5 million."

Peng Wanhua smiled slightly and said a number that shocked her.

"Isn't this too little?"

Qin Wanqiu was shocked. You must know that even if Shaw Brothers TVB is famous for being stingy, the cost of filming an episode is much higher than this.

"The cost of the cast and crew is very low, like Jia Baoyu, it only costs 80 yuan per episode.

Chen Xiaoxu, who plays Lin Daiyu, can only get 60 yuan per episode.

Jia Lian only has 40 yuan per episode.

Yuan Mei, who plays Xiren, only costs 30 yuan per episode.

All are very low.

The key is that with such a low salary, the quality of the TV series produced is ridiculously high, so..."

"So we can't waste the actors' hard work, and we can't cut off their hard work. We should preserve as many wonderful dramas as possible for the general public to watch, right?" Qin Wanqiu followed up.

"Yeah!" Peng Wanhua nodded.

"Okay, I understand your idea. Even if the other party doesn't agree to the other conditions, I have to make him agree to this."

Qin Wanqiu said decisively.

Peng Wanhua immediately gave her a thumbs up with appreciation, "Pattern!"

Qin Wanqiu smiled slightly, "How can I dare to call the pattern? Only you can do a noble thing regardless of personal gains and losses.

You are the real big picture. "

In her mind, she was the one negotiating.

But the actual boss of the company is Peng Wanhua, and of course he is the one who provides the money.

At that time, this investment may suffer losses due to these conditions.

And even if he suffers losses, he still wants to leave more classic dramas to the public.

What kind of spirit is this?

This is a fearless dedication to national classic literature.

Peng Wanhua smiled.

He has made a lot of money, and it can be expected that he will make more in the near future.

But there is only one chance to save such a classic "Dream of Red Mansions".

So he would be happy to spend more money.

"By the way, I plan to invest eight million yuan this time. Do you think it's enough?"

Qin Wanqiu told the amount of investment.

"Well, it's more or less the same. If we can strive for more, it's okay to invest 10 million."

Peng Wanhua remembers that the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions" spent only 6.8 million yuan in his previous life.

This time, adding his 10 million, it would be more than 13 million, which should be enough to complete all the missed scenes.

"Okay, then I will discuss it along this line of thinking."

Qin Wanqiu stood up suddenly and prepared to go back.

Suddenly, she felt like her eyes were going dark and she was about to fall down.
