The Golden Age of China Entertainment

After negotiating with Li Hong, Yi Qing got up to say goodbye, went home by bike, and first went to find Li Chengru, who happened to be at home, and the funds for the Journey to the West crew were not in place. Been busy looking for a special place to open a branch.

"Hey! Xiao Yi is back. You don't need to rest for two more days to get married. When will you return to the capital? Come in, I just plan to find you!"

Yi Qing followed Li Chengru into the house.

"It arrived last night, and I went to work early this morning. Brother Li, what do you want from me!?"

Li Chengru asked Yi Qing to sit down first, then went to fetch a piece of paper and put it in front of Yi Qing.

"Here are a few places I've been looking for. Take a look, the locations are all good, but you still have to get the final idea."

Yi Qing listened, picked up the piece of paper and looked at it, and said casually: "Chongwenmen, how many floors is it?"

Li Chengru took the paper back and said with a smile: "I also like this location. The building was built before liberation, on the fourth floor. Before liberation, it was a newspaper office. It was later banned and changed into a hotel. Later, the policy was implemented and returned to the original owner. The family wanted to go abroad, so they entrusted someone to sell it. It happened that the person they entrusted was ferromagnetic, so I went to see it once. The building is quite good, and it can be used after a little decoration. The price is not expensive, and it costs 30 yuan if you don’t want to be a lion.”

A small four-story building on Chongwenmenwai Street only costs 30 yuan, which is indeed not expensive.

In fact, since the second half of last year, housing prices in Beijing have begun to rise. Like Yi Qing, who bought a special store for less than 20 before, it is basically impossible now.

This family sells it so cheaply, and it is impossible to find a buyer who can pay [-] units.

"It's not expensive, Brother Li, hurry up and take it, don't turn around and let others snatch it!"

Li Chengru said with a smile: "No, don't worry, except us, who has such cash, if you have no problem, I will contact the other party later, and hurry up and go through the formalities!"

Yi Qing nodded: "Okay! You can handle this matter according to your discretion. I came to you to ask, what happened to the Journey to the West?"

Don't look at Yi Qing's big plans now, but the overseas copyright of Journey to the West has always been on his mind.

Others took the overseas copyright of Journey to the West as grassroots, but for Yi Qing, it was a real treasure.

Seeing Yi Qing mentioning this matter, Li Chengru also had a troubled expression on his face: "I really asked you about this matter, Director Yang must be fine, as long as the old lady has money, she can continue to shoot, what? The conditions can be agreed, but when it comes to CCTV, someone gets stuck."

Director Yang Jie's only idea now is to finish the filming of Journey to the West smoothly, everything else is secondary, not to mention Yi Qing's overseas copyright, even if it is a domestic copyright, she doesn't care, as long as she has money, let her continue Just shoot down.

Yi Qing was taken aback when he heard the words, and was stuck. Could it be that someone had a foresight and realized the great value of overseas copyrights in the future?

If this is the case, then it will be troublesome!

"Brother Li, what's going on, please tell me in detail!"

Chapter 251 Face Problem

Yi Qing originally thought that some people in the upper echelons of CCTV opposed the transfer of overseas copyrights because they saw the huge potential and the huge benefits brought by Gulf copyrights.

But if this is the case, why is CCTV still hesitating about whether to inject capital into the Westward Journey crew?

It just doesn't make sense.

In the end, after Li Chengru explained it, Yi Qing realized that the reason why some people objected was not because of interests, but because of face!

"Someone at the top said that Journey to the West is a CCTV project after all. If the overseas copyrights are transferred to individuals, the social influence will be bad. Of course, this social influence is mainly due to the evaluation of the outside world. To put it bluntly, they are afraid of losing face!"

Fuck, listen, is this a human language?

In this way, can it be understood that some people on CCTV would rather stop the filming of Journey to the West than share a piece of the pie with others, even though they don't know whether the soup is fragrant or stinky, and, Not only are they unwilling to be invested by others, but they are also unwilling to invest themselves. This is mainly because they spend too much money on Journey to the West, and they are not sure about the long-term benefits.

Face is more important than anything else, this is the idea of ​​those big shots at the top, they can stop filming, but they cannot accept the threat of personal capital.

Faced with this unique thinking, Yi Qing was speechless: "They don't vote, and they don't let others vote. They would rather the Journey to the West crew stop filming like this? But what about the previous investment? They never thought that if the Journey to the West crew would just stop filming like this If the filming stops, the previous investment will be in vain.”

Li Chengru also had a look of helplessness: "This is not a waste of time. According to the above, the filming work will stop here, and we will broadcast as much as we film!"

Come on, what the hell is this plan to get eunuchs into the palace, it doesn't even count as a bad ending.

Yi Qing had heard from Li Chengru before that the crew of Journey to the West had just finished filming this episode, and the four masters and apprentices went to the west to learn scriptures, so they just got the Huoyun Cave and it was over.

"Is this thing not slowing down?"

As a latecomer, Yi Qing knew that he would definitely come back from the dead, and Comrade Multi-eyed Monster would soon find the railway department, and then received an investment of 300 million yuan, so that the Westward Journey crew insisted on filming it.

But if that's the case, it has nothing to do with Yi Qing. To be honest, he is really not reconciled.

The missed overseas copyright is one aspect, and more importantly, he knows very well that the 300 million yuan is not enough to support the crew to finish filming all the stories of Journey to the West.

After more than ten years, in order to make up for the regret, director Yang Jie and the four masters and apprentices cleared up their old suspicions, pulled the original crew, and filmed more than a dozen episodes. It can be regarded as the end of the story of Journey to the West. A few episodes completely ruined the feelings of Journey to the West fans.

"It's not that there is no delay. I heard that it seems that Director Yang Jie went to find the leader of CCTV."

Hearing this, Yi Qing's eyes immediately brightened. He knew very well about Director Yang Jie's fighting power. This little old lady was known as the type of employee who opposed the leader. You can see it in her later autobiography , Her career is almost a history of struggles with various leaders, which shows how hard her personality has become.

It is also because of director Yang Jie's strong personality that she doesn't have many friends in CCTV and offends a lot of people, so there are many people who have opinions on her filming.

Since its establishment, the production team has been reported continuously. Not only did they report their travel with public funds, but some people "cry bitterly" at CCTV's internal meeting and said that it was CCTV's biggest mistake to hand it over to Yang Jie for filming, etc.

But this little old lady just took all the criticisms as fart. She didn't take it seriously at all. There was a lot of trouble on the running platform, and the hatred was crazily drawn to himself.

Later, in the autobiography of director Yang Jie, it was mentioned three times. One of them was that she applied for the use of special effects equipment in the station, just in time for the director of CCTV to be criticized by letters from the audience because of the poor reputation of a certain TV series. They were in a bad mood, so the two started arguing without any speculation. After the quarrel was over, Yang Jie left.

There was another time when it was being organized, and the show was suddenly rejected by CCTV during the preparation process, which made Director Yang Jie furious and directly tore up the script.Although the party was held normally later, Yang Jie did not seldom pat the table with the leader during the process.

In addition, the most intense dispute between director Yang Jie and the upper management of CCTV happened over the choice of music. Because Xu Jingqing's music was completely rejected by the senior management of CCTV, Yang Jie was completely angry, and her combat effectiveness exploded. He wrote a strongly worded letter and sent it back to CCTV. In addition to expressing his own point of view, he also had some rather violent words.

The result is naturally that Director Yang Jie won a big victory, Teacher Xu's music was completely preserved, and only then did the later ones, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah~~ ~~~~

It is obvious that this time, because of face, the upper-level leaders of CCTV refused to allow personal capital to enter, which directly hit Director Yang Jie's lungs.

But after thinking about it again, Yi Qing became a little worried again, because no one except him knew what overseas copyright meant.

Director Yang Jie only wanted to finish the filming, she didn't care about overseas copyright or not.

But the problem is, if she really makes trouble, Yi Qing invests 500 million yuan and gets the overseas copyright, but when the top leaders of CCTV see the huge benefits of this overseas copyright, Director Yang Jie will definitely die fall.

At that time, as long as someone above said the last sentence, Yang Jie gave away the overseas copyright to others, and we stopped it, but we couldn't stop it at all.

When the time comes, it may not be possible to doomed, and I am afraid that Director Yang will have to be stabbed in the back by people who don't know the truth for the rest of his life. This is obviously not what Yi Qing wants to see.

"What's wrong?" Li Chengru saw that Yi Qing didn't speak for a while, and asked, "Are you worried about Director Yang? Don't worry, the old lady is definitely fine, and this is not the first time she has quarreled with the director. Uncommon."

The more Yi Qing thought about it, the more he felt that this matter should not be done in this way. Even if director Yang Jie really made trouble, he would not feel at ease when he holds the overseas copyright.

"Brother Li! Go to Director Yang as soon as possible, and say, I have made a concession here. If CCTV accepts the investment, I only need half of the overseas copyright, and the remaining half will return to CCTV. In the future, due to overseas copyright, any All interests are equally divided, but there is one thing that CCTV must agree to, that is, the operation of overseas copyrights must be decided by me, and CCTV must not interfere."

This is the biggest concession Yi Qing has made. In this way, not only can Director Yang be kept, but more importantly, the rights are still in his hands. The copyright sold for the price of cabbage.

It was broadcast in so many countries in the previous life, but it seems that no one has ever raised the question of royalties, and some people have asked, but CCTV is pretending to be deaf and dumb. It was sold, and it was probably not more expensive than the Chinese cabbage on the market.

So, this reform, to be in line with international standards, is really imperative.
