Chapter 90 Haggling! (add more)
After some twists and turns, Zhong Ming finally found the producer of "The Best Debater", named Luo Mingjie.

The reason why I have been tossed around for a while is because "The Best Debater" is not a variety show produced by this barrage website itself, but only produced and broadcast exclusively. The program "Best Debater" was produced by Guangjie Media, a company founded by Luo Mingjie himself, and the two were in a cooperative relationship.

But after the first season of "The Best Debater" was aired, the data was really poor. Not only the website and sponsors were disappointed, but Luo Mingjie himself was also very disappointed. He even had a second season to stop doing this. idea.

Of course, according to the website, it seems that Luo Mingjie decided to continue to do the second season, but now the sponsors have not been found, and Zhong Ming has to find out the specific situation.

As for the website, it’s not easy to say too much or too much detail. I guess it’s because I’m afraid that this show will be called cool, so Zhong Ming won’t invest money, but Zhong Ming is quite happy. Does such a cool show mean that I can hack it? price?
Zhong Ming made a phone call with Luo Mingjie, and it happened that Luo Mingjie's Guangjie Media was also in Ming'an City, so he directly made an appointment to meet the next afternoon.

Before going to the meeting, Zhong Ming still had to call Director Xie to report that he wanted to talk to the producer of a variety show about buying the naming rights.

Director Xie was probably resting at home, and was taken aback when he heard what Zhong Ming said: "The naming rights of variety shows? Seems like those are quite expensive, right? Like tens of millions? We can't afford it!"

Zhong Ming explained: "It's okay, it's an unpopular debate show called "Best Debater". I'll go bargain and try to win it for 200 million yuan."

Director Xie was a little bit dumbfounded: "200 million to buy the naming rights? What kind of variety show is it supposed to be? Can it work? Don't let no one watch it, our money will be wasted."

Zhong Ming said: "I'll talk about it first, and I don't necessarily buy it. I want to have a good talk with the producer and give him some advice on the project. As long as the popularity can be raised a little bit, we will make money. Besides, let's With this little money, the effect of conventional promotion methods is not much better, so we need to develop more ideas.”

Director Xie thought about it, and what Zhong Ming said seemed quite reasonable.

He is still in the follow-up effect of the halo, and he thinks that "The Boundless Learning Sea" has great potential, so he naturally agrees with what Zhong Ming said.

"Then go and have a look. I don't really have any good ideas about how to spend this promotional funds. If you can tell the truth, it's not impossible to invest in variety show advertisements."

"Don't worry, I will definitely investigate carefully, and there will be no problem."

Zhong Ming found that he quite liked Lao Xie, a supervisor of the Buddhist department. Although he couldn't help him, at least he wouldn't hold him back!

Moreover, Lao Xie has his advantages as a supervisor. He is not afraid of taking responsibility, and he trusts his employees more. He knows that he is not capable enough, so he will not direct blindly. This is much better than Liu Yuxin.

……

The next day, Zhong Ming took a speeding car and arrived at the coffee shop that Luo Mingjie had made an appointment with.

After all, this is an official business, and it can be reimbursed, so it's a big deal, and you don't have to wait for the Airbus anymore.

The two met and shook hands, exchanged electronic business cards with the bracelets, then sat down, ordered a drink and started chatting.

Zhong Ming looked at Luo Mingjie's electronic business card: Founder, CEO, Chief Content Officer of Guangjie Media, producer of "The Best Debater".

Luo Mingjie looked at Zhong Ming's electronic business card: World Architect of Guangyi Interactive Entertainment's "Learning Sea Boundless" project.

Luo Mingjie: "emmm..."

The gap between the two positions is a bit big...

Although Guangjie Media is a small company and Guangyi Interactive Entertainment is a large company, Zhong Ming is just the world architect of a certain project of Guangyi Interactive Entertainment. Although the name of this position sounds good, it is clear that Luo Mingjie is also very aware of this. The position is much lower than the supervisor...

And looking at Zhong Ming's age, Luo Mingjie really doubted whether he had the right to use several million naming fees.

But as the saying goes, come and go.

It is also impossible for Luo Mingjie to slap the table and leave when he sees a business card. After all, no matter how young he is, he is still a person who may become the father of the sponsor.

The two exchanged some pleasantries, and Zhong Ming went straight to the topic: "I heard that the sponsors for the second season of "The Best Debater" are not easy to find, right? How are you doing now?"

Luo Mingjie nodded: "It's not easy to find. To be honest, we are actually in a hurry, because we originally planned to start recording this weekend, but there was a small problem. There were originally four bids, but the one with the highest bid The family changed their minds temporarily again, so it made us quite passive."

Zhong Ming was a little surprised. How could there be four bids for this show?

Then my luck is really good, fortunately the one with the highest bid has changed its mind, otherwise it would be nothing to me!

"That's right, our side also intends to name it. Let me ask first, how much is our naming fee? I only found out that the naming fee for the first season was 500 million. What about this season?"

Luo Mingjie said: "This season is still the same as the previous season. Originally, it was able to shoot 500 million yuan, but the sponsor changed its mind temporarily, and the rest of the sponsors are only willing to pay 400 million yuan. That's why I'm struggling with this matter now."

"Uh……"

Zhong Ming was a little embarrassed. He originally thought that the first season of "The Best Debater" was so bad that the naming fee for the second season should have dropped a lot, but it didn't drop much...

The other three sponsors are willing to pay 400 million, and I only have 300 million in total...

This is a bit worrying.

And judging from what Luo Mingjie meant, 400 million is not satisfied, maybe he is considering the various costs of producing the program himself.After all, the main income of an online variety comes from the naming fee, and there are other incomes, such as placing advertisements, but those selling prices are much lower. If the naming fee is low, it will basically lose money.

But three to four million, Zhong Ming can't even get it out...

Although there are 300 million publicity funds, they can't all be used to buy naming rights, right?Novice investors also know that all eggs cannot be put in one basket.

And the key point is that what Zhong Ming said didn't mean anything, he just offered a plan, and it was Director Xie who made the final decision, and even President Lu had to intervene.

Therefore, Zhong Ming can vote for online dramas, but he must not fully invest in this, otherwise how to convince Supervisor Xie and Lu will always be a problem.

then what should we do?Not enough money...

Zhong Ming thought for a while: "How about the four sponsors together? Can this plan be considered?"

Luo Mingjie was stunned for a moment: "The four sponsors together? Then how to name it, four names? That's definitely not possible."

Zhong Ming explained: "It doesn't have to be a title, it can be called a 'super sponsor', and there are more advertisements in the program."

Luo Mingjie: "Then we won't be able to bid such a high price. Now we can get 500 million yuan because of the title."

"It doesn't matter, let's lower the price. Each family will be 200 million. If the four companies add up to 800 million, it will be more than the exclusive sponsorship money from the bidding." Zhong Ming said.

Luo Mingjie frowned and thought for a while: "It seems...it's not impossible."
