The King of Variety Entertainment

Yang An checked all his bank cards and wealth management products, and sadly found that his assets were only more than 10,000 yuan. After thinking about it, he could only obediently take out his phone and ask his mother for help.

Mom, I'm coming back for dinner today.

My mother was playing mahjong, and she stopped playing mahjong when she heard this, and said pleasantly, Son, are you coming back for the weekend? Oh, tell me the truth, are you running out of money again?

The faint laughter of the poker players came from the phone, and Yang An's face was hot: Mom, can you save me some face? Can we still spend the weekend happily together? I really want to accompany you to Qingshan Reservoir for two God, how is it?

Mom laughed loudly: You are my son, I know what you have for lunch even if you fart! Come back after get off work, I will call your dad right now! Ladies, stop beating, I I want to go back and make a big meal for my son!

Yang An's parents lived in Hong'an, a satellite city of Hongfeng City. It took him an hour to take the intercity light rail train. As soon as he got out of the light rail station, he saw his father waving his arms and calling his name.

Yang An ran over: Dad, why are you here?

Dad smiled and said, It's not easy to take a taxi during the rush hour. My uncle and I will pick you up.

When the two came to the parking lot, the uncle was sitting in the co-pilot waiting, Yang An laughed: Oh, uncle, your old driver will accompany you all the way?

The uncle said seriously: Put on your seat belt, you don't know how scary your dad is driving, I wish I could add a foot brake to the co-pilot, step on it anytime!

Yang An laughed. Dad just got his driver's license for a month. It happened that a domestic car bought by a colleague's family was knocked out less than a year ago. He took over with great interest. Unfortunately, he lacked road experience and it was the rush hour for get off work. , driving carefully, not much faster than passers-by on bicycles, and sweating profusely nervously.

It was almost seven o'clock, and the three of them were returning home. When the aunt opened the door, she boasted: Yang An, why are you so handsome again!

Yang An called his aunt, and said with a smile: You put on light makeup this morning, Aunt, you are still so young and beautiful!

My aunt smiled from ear to ear: I'm almost fifty and I'm still young and beautiful. Look at your sweet mouth, it's like you've been smeared with honey! Hurry up and wash your hands, your mother just made your favorite oil Braised prawns!

Yang An washed his hands and went to the kitchen to help his mother serve the dishes. The five of them sat around the square table, poured white wine and drinks, and began to feast.

The mother handed over the disposable gloves for eating shrimp, and asked, Auntie said you put on makeup, what makeup do you need? Aren't you doing chores with the crew?

Yang An said: Now I'm the chief director, and I'm also the host of the show. By the way, have you watched last week's Jianghu Joke? I also appeared on camera and played a small role.

Dad put down his glass and asked suspiciously, Wait a minute, are you the chief director? And the host?

Yang An nodded: Yes, I forgot to tell you. Last week, Joker Talk was revised, and I was in charge of Slippery Joke Talk. Not only the chief director, but also the host.”

Then he gave a general account of what happened in the past two weeks. After hearing this, his aunt patted Yang An's shoulder and said happily, Oh, Xiao An, you are really promising! Our family has even produced a talented director. Jianghu Jokes, right? I remember this show wasn’t very good, but I can’t say it’s bad. How did you change it?”

Yang An smiled and said: The effect is so-so. The ratings of the last episode increased by 20% compared to before taking over. I estimate that there is still a 20% increase in this episode. Anyway, the old tree is blooming and reborn. Alas, don't you My elders, you don't watch the show on Sunday, support my ratings?

I'm too lazy to watch such a boring program! My aunt and Yang An argued with each other with a smile.

Dad asked: After you became the chief director, how did you solve the problem? Did you convert the contract workers into regular workers? Has the salary increased? What about the benefits?

Yang An took off his gloves,

Putting down the chopsticks, he said formally: This is the reason why I came back today. I want to become an independent producer and set up a film and television production company. Let me first explain to you what separation of production and broadcasting is.

It is not difficult to set up an independent film and television production company. Many old TV people who have worked in TV stations for more than ten years have more or less the idea of ​​going out to start a business, especially those key employees with strong connections and abundant resources. , As long as there is a good idea, coupled with a certain amount of opportunity and courage, most of them can make a name for themselves.

Yang An said: The station wanted to turn me into a career establishment, but I didn't agree. I have a few good ideas, as long as they are used in the program, I believe that within half a year, the ratings will definitely exceed 1%. What is the concept? The third-ranked variety show on Red Maple Satellite TV is Happy Saturday, and its ratings are only about 1.2%.

Uncle asked: You mean, you want to set up a company, contract out this program, and then sell it to a TV station for broadcast, don't you?

Yang An nodded: Yes, the production is like a magic spell, which sounds good but has many restrictions. So I must first terminate the contract, give up the production, and truly become an independent producer.

The uncle said: I don't agree, you have no experience, director, host, producer, you have just started learning, how do you know whether the show is popular or not, is it good or not?

Yang An is helpless, he can't say, I do know what the most mature and excellent variety shows are, and I also know which ones are popular and which ones are not good, right?

The uncle said: Secondly, you are not well-known now, and you have no connections. Even if you make a program at that time, the TV station will have to decide whether to broadcast your program. Even if you work hard to get the chance to broadcast it, if the TV station They pinch you to play, refuse to pay production fees in arrears, make yin and yang contracts for advertising fees, or sue you for infringement, and you don’t even have a chance to resist.”

Yang An is very confident about this point: Don't worry, a good program is like gold and will shine. There are so many TV stations in the country, but Red Maple TV will not accept it. I will go to other places. There is always a TV station that is willing to accept it.

Uncle shook his head: I still suggest that you work steadily, first turn into a full-time job with a permanent establishment, secure your position as a director, make achievements in Jianghu Joke and become famous. In the future, when you are ready in all aspects, The connections, funds, and experience are all in place, and it won't be too late for you to leave the TV station and go out on your own.

The aunt agreed: Xiao'an, I think what your uncle said is very reasonable. These days, how difficult it is for you to get a public institution establishment! One of my colleagues, her son will enter the Hongfeng City Meteorological Bureau this year, I asked people everywhere to find connections, managed more than 100,000 yuan, and finally got a salary of more than 2,000 yuan a month, but everyone said that she made it because the Meteorological Bureau has idle work, guaranteed income during drought and flood, and has financial allocations. In the future, there may be benefits Room allocation. Your Red Maple Satellite TV station is much better than the Meteorological Bureau, right? I dare say that you may not be able to buy this position for 500,000!

After all, my mother is a woman, and she only hopes to see her son healthy and happy. She also persuaded: Yes, you have become a director with a monthly salary of nearly ten thousand. The TV station is a good unit. I don't know how many Excellent girls are willing to associate with you. You can spend three to five years getting married and having children, and doing a good job at work, and when you become famous in the circle, it will not be too late if you want to change jobs.

Three to one, Yang An had thought about this ending a long time ago.

To be honest, half a month ago, his biggest wish in life was to be a small director or producer, with a salary higher than the average salary, and to find opportunities to subtly rule the female artists of the third and fourth tiers. As the chief director of a program, he had already sold himself cheerfully, so what else was he thinking about!

But now it’s completely different. There are too many variety shows in his mind, and his memory is very good. Some things he watched in the previous life, whether it’s a show or a song, can be remembered now. If he’s still sleepy It's not worth it to die in the corner of a TV station.

Especially the Love to Laugh series, this is the first classic variety show that Yang An put out, he really didn't want the TV station to take advantage of it for nothing, and when he became famous in the future, if news of the famous producer Yang An's news came out in the circle The first set of the classic variety show Jianghu Joke is only 1.5 million a year for the sponsorship fee. He can't afford to lose this person. The start is too low, and it will be difficult to raise the price in the future.

There was only his father left, and Yang An looked forward to his father's support.

Dad said: The establishment of the TV station is not necessarily a good thing. You are not from the agency, so you don't understand how dark it is. Xiaoan also mentioned just now, that person named Li Yang, and the group of people behind Li Yang , are not good people, even if Xiaoan becomes the chief director, if the TV station wants to pinch him for fun, they can take away his power at any time.

Yang An was overjoyed: That's right, Dad, that's what I meant. There is no one in the court who is not an official. If I enter the establishment, an administrative order can make all my hard work go to waste. My program must be run by me. call the shots!

Dad said: Let me ask you, how much does it cost you to start a film and television production company and operate it every month?

Yang An calculated carefully: It's close to a small hundred thousand.

Slippery, mirror house and dark room, these three are mainly props, and many props can be recycled and reused. The total cost of one phase does not exceed 3,000 yuan, and 10,000 yuan a month. Other unit plays, stage plays, interviews Links, talk shows, etc. will not cost much.

The biggest expense is staff salaries and equipment rental. Just five cameras need to be rented, and staff salaries cost at least 40,000 to 50,000 yuan a month. If artists who are not big names are invited, the first announcement fee is at most 5,000 yuan. Third-tier and fourth-tier artists don't even need to pay, plus entertainment fees, utilities, rent, etc., so a minimum of 100,000 a month is a must.

Dad asked again: You want to be a producer, a director, and a host. Do you have the energy to manage this company?

Yang An said: I've thought about it, let my mother be the general manager.

Mom said coyly: Me? Don't be kidding, I'm a housewife, what kind of general manager, don't make trouble!
