I am really a language teacher

There are only three ways to sell TV series in Zhendan Kingdom: one is called buyout; the other is called stage payment; and the other is called package.The so-called buyout TV series are naturally not the main TV series of each TV tower, and are usually bought for use during the daytime.This kind of drama is usually bought by the TV station after watching the pilot episode.Stage payment dramas generally buy half of the episodes first. If they are packed, the price of the remaining half will naturally increase; but if the ratings are not good, the price of the remaining half may be reduced or even cancelled.Generally speaking, only well-produced TV dramas will allow the production company and the TV station to enter into such a similar gambling agreement.For the remaining packaged dramas, the production company pays to buy a time slot from the TV station. The production company is responsible for any content broadcast during this time period. Similarly, the advertising revenue brought by the ratings is also owned by the production company.Usually no TV station will accept the contract, after all, the TV station is responsible for its own overall ratings and style.

Therefore, buyout dramas and stage payment dramas have become the mainstream, and after selling the first round of broadcasting rights in this way, the production company can also sell the second and third rounds of broadcasting rights to local TV networks or small cable channels.Generally, after three rounds of sales, the TV series will be included in the film library, and then opened to special TV series channels.In order to ensure their daily broadcast time, many TV drama channels are willing to rebroadcast some old movies.But at this time, the broadcast price is very cheap.

Because of this charging model, the copyright income of the production company is still very cost-effective.Especially according to industry rules, except for directors, screenwriters, and leading actors who can get dividends, the rest of the staff get fixed salaries, so the profits within the production company are still very high.According to the rules, the director's bonus is at most 5%; the screenwriter's bonus is 3%; the male and female protagonists can each get 1%.It means that the production company can get at least [-]% of the profit, so there are endless production companies in the Cathay Kingdom.

However, there are generally only two kinds of production companies that are well mixed. One is a production company that belongs to the same media group as the TV station, and the other is a direct production company that the TV station has investment in but does not hold.Because the laws of the Kingdom of Cathay require the separation of production and broadcasting of TV stations, in order to cultivate their own cronies and production companies, they often use these two methods to control the content of the production company.Other than that, the only production companies that have done well are Wang Jun's Wenhua Film and Television and Ge Fuhong's Xinlong Production. The so-called independent production companies are all satellite companies attached to these two companies.

Regardless of the fact that the production company is a content provider, it seems amazing.But in this era when channels are king, TV stations are the key.Why are there only a few production companies doing well?That's because other channels were established early.Of the four major TV networks in China, except public TV which has its own content provider, the other three have their own exclusive content provider.

For example, Wang Jun used to be the content director of United Vision, so the relationship between Wenhua Film and Television and United Vision is naturally close; and Ge Fuhong used to be the general manager of the entertainment department of the old Dongshi, so Xinlong Production is naturally the same as it is now. As the largest satellite company under Xinlong Productions, Gold Medal Communications has an ambiguous relationship with Dongshi's former younger brother, Nanshi.

Now that Mr. Ge and Mr. Wang have taken over the existing TV networks, the newly established New Asia TV and Metropolitan Broadcasting have become few choices for Hurricane Culture.So Sun Ping sent the outline of the project to the two TV companies, hoping to get a response.However, to Sun Ping's surprise, Gold Medal Broadcasting was also in contact with Metropolitan Broadcasting at this time.

"Mr. Huang, I always thought that you and Nanshi had a happy cooperation. How did you find us in Metropolis?" Although Lei Dong was a little disappointed with Lei Li in the last acquisition incident, after all, she was his daughter, so Lei Dong still kept it. Reilly's position as president.

However, in order to check and balance Lei Li, Lei Dong promoted three senior vice presidents to be in charge of the TV station's news, entertainment and sports programs; at the same time, he also set up the position of chief operating officer to help the metropolis with its daily operations.Although most of Lei Li's power has been evacuated, she is, after all, the biggest manager of Metropolitan Broadcasting in name.

Therefore, Huang Weizhong, the general manager of Gold Medal Media, still talked with Lei Li about the cooperative relationship between the two companies. "Especially the relationship between you and Xinlong, which makes me feel a bit embarrassed."

Huang Weizhong smiled, "Miss Lei, people on my side don't speak secretly. Although Gold Medal Communications is a satellite company split from Xinlong Production, we are still a legal entity with independent accounting. Mr. Ge was kind to me back then. , but this situation is almost done. Besides, in business matters, we are talking about business.

Although we have a happy cooperation with NTV, the copyrights of all programs have been taken away by NJSTAR Cultural Enterprise Company.Although this company also has shares in our company, it is not a sole proprietorship of our company after all, and we are unwilling to share our intellectual property rights and interests with unrelated people.So our cooperation with Southern Television will be terminated sooner or later, so I must find a suitable TV station to cooperate with.

Ms. Lei, I think you also know that the third TV station has ordered to block your content.Although you have also established your own production company, do you think your ratings will rise without the assistance of a senior company?Miss Lei, I need a channel, and you need an upstream content provider.Don't you think our cooperation is seamless? "

Although Lei Li didn't answer Huang Weizhong on the spot, she returned to her office very satisfied.After what happened last time, Lei Li was much more cautious in doing things.She immediately called the senior vice president in charge of the entertainment business to her office and told him about the gold medal broadcast.

The vice president closed his eyes and pondered for a while, and then said: "We can promise him, but we can't put all the eggs in one box. Mr. Lei, my suggestion is: First, the gold medal spread in our broadcast For programs, the copyright must be shared and we have the priority; secondly, we must find another production company to cooperate with, and let Gold Media know that we are not the only ones who can broadcast programs. Mr. Lei, I have received a project proposal from Hurricane Culture, You can take a look."

Lei Li nodded, and after sending the senior vice president away, she looked at the proposal.But when she saw the name on the plan, after Sun Ping, Lei Li suddenly became angry.She quickly returned the project proposal, and said that such a small production company without qualifications is not qualified to cooperate with Metropolitan Broadcasting.

Lei Li's reply was naturally implemented, and no one thought it was wrong.What kind of company is Hurricane Culture?Almost no one in the production circle knows.What qualifications does a little-known production company have to work with a TV network?So Lei Li's reply was implemented by everyone, and no one objected.

Compared with Metropolis, it doesn't matter, New Asia TV is very anxious.You must know that Redon stands behind the metropolis. That old boy is one of the three major cinema operators in the country, and most of the TV stations and film companies have such relationships.Therefore, for Lei Dong's sake, the major TV companies are at most a little bit embarrassed about the metropolis, and they will still be regarded as the same family in the end.

But New Asia TV is embarrassing. The predecessor of New Asia TV offended too many TV companies in China and was attacked by everyone and closed down. Now New Asia TV has made a comeback, claiming to have more than half of Nanyang’s ratings base, but what’s the use of that? ?Compared with the mainland, the wealth and population of Nanyang is like the difference between a mouse and an elephant.In addition, the headquarters of New Asia TV is located in Mingzhu City, and the headquarters of Southern TV Company is located in Huacheng, which are only three hours away by car.Naturally, New Asia TV was regarded by NanTV as a confidant, and without the other TV towers saying hello, NanTV crushed New Asia TV to death.

Although Nanshi is not famous in TV dramas and variety shows, it is a big broadcaster of sports programs.Every weekend, NanTV's ratings are so overwhelming that other TV stations don't want it.Not only that, they have also established a series of cable TV channels such as Nanshi Sports [-] (football and rugby channels), Sports [-] (basketball, baseball and ice hockey channels), outdoor sports channels, college sports channels, comprehensive sports channels, and golf and tennis channels. Sports channels continue to occupy the forefront of cable TV subscriptions.So don't look at Nanshi, which seems to be a little unknown, but Nanshi's annual revenue is almost the sum of the other two TV networks.

In the face of such a senior who looked up to the mountain, New Asia TV could only silently bite the small handkerchief.Originally, New Asia TV planned to start with entertainment programs and avoid the basic market of Southern Television.But what caught New Asia TV by surprise was that NanTV had no intention of showing another TV network under its nose at all.So New Asia TV was completely tragic, and no production company dared to cooperate with them.

Although New Asia TV also has its own direct production company, but the hours of program production cannot meet the broadcast hours.If it weren't for the many old copyright programs in the original Asian TV film library, the president of New Asia TV and the front desk staff would cry to death at this time.

Therefore, the Hurricane Culture project is no different from a glass of cool mineral water to a desert traveler for New Asia TV at this time, and there are many experts in New Asia TV, and they have also seen the power of this project. place.After an internal review, New Asia TV sent an invitation letter to Hurricane Culture, hoping that the two parties could discuss the project face to face.

Compared with the discord between the five major commercial TV networks in the future (public TV networks are not part of commercial TV networks), the small Hurricane Culture is naturally not qualified to participate.However, Sun Ping was quite happy to receive a reply from New Asia TV in the end.The root of New Asia TV is basically in the south, and Jiangnan Culture TV Station is just a franchised TV station of New Asia TV.If they can negotiate a cooperation agreement with New Asia TV in the future, they can use Jiangnan Culture TV to produce without traveling around.Thinking of the prospect of future cooperation, Sun Ping temporarily put down his teaching work and rushed to Mingzhu City with Zhou Haoxin.

It took only an hour to fly from Jiangnan to Mingzhu City, and as soon as the plane landed at Mingzhu Airport, Sun Ping and others received a call from New Asia TV, saying that the person in charge of reception was already waiting outside the airport.It has to be said that New Asia TV, which has been in a hurry to go to the doctor, has shown the greatest sincerity, and even put down its identity as a TV station to receive a small production company.

Seeing the situation of New Asia TV, Sun Ping also knew his position.Although it is not a gentleman's act to take advantage of the fire and rob, but he is not a qualified businessman if he has greater interests and does not ask for it.However, Sun Ping also knows that Hurricane and Xinya are definitely not a one-shot deal. In order to cooperate better in the future, how to choose the angle has become a problem that Sun Ping is currently thinking about.After all, money is also very important to the nascent Hurricane culture.
