The world of Chinese style creates a prosperous era for girl groups

Xia Haoyang boasted in front of the Wang brothers that he would complete a script with an exciting and attractive plot within a month.

But in fact, it took less than a month at all, and the script of "Squid Game" was completed in just ten days.

The whole story is novel and exciting, and very outstanding. The only problem is that the plot is too short, only nine episodes.

Mr. Wang from Brothers Film arranged for a professional director to review Xia Haoyang's script, which received very high praise. As long as it can be filmed, it will definitely be a hit! It is even a milestone that changes the history of Chinese TV dramas! Such comments made Mr. Wang wonder if the director of his company was deceiving himself by taking money from the other party.

But my director also mentioned two problems: First, although the plot is complete, it is too short! Only nine episodes! This is a flaw! It would be very uncomfortable to let any TV station broadcast it; secondly, the whole story is a bit bloody. There is no rating system for Chinese TV dramas. If you film the complete plot according to the plot, there is a high probability that it will not pass the review, and it will not be a star, and it will not be broadcast on provincial satellite TV. broadcast on the station!

"In other words, this script is top-notch, but it has its own limitations. It is ideal to be broadcast on an online platform. And Xia Haoyang said, this is only the first season!" The director expressed his views without reservation.

The two presidents looked at each other, and the big boss said: "This script will definitely be popular if it is filmed? Even if it is an online platform?"

"Definitely! If Mr. Wang hands this script to me and I don't make this film a hit, I will be willing to work for the two Mr. Wangs for free for life!" The director was full of confidence.

"And Mr. Xia said there will be a second season?"

"Yes, the script he gave me only has nine episodes. The story is complete and short and concise, but it is obvious that there will be a follow-up, which is the so-called second season."

"Can you make money?"

"After this drama is produced, there is no problem in selling an episode of 100 million yuan! The second season can even sell an episode of 200 million yuan! If it cannot be sold at this price, I will post it myself!" The director was also furious.

"Advertising investment?"

"I am willing to bear it all myself! I can recover at least 2-3 million in advertising fees for the first season, and double the amount for the second season!"

"production cost?"

"The whole film can be set up. The scale of the scene is not high. It can be a wild island or a studio film and television city. There are not many actors. But I suggest that the male protagonist hire someone with full weight and excellent acting skills to set up the scene. This is also Xia Haoyang's It is suggested that the male protagonist’s salary is calculated as the maximum salary of 8000 million, and the other actors together will not exceed 4 million. The total production fee of the series is actually 5 million or at most million.”

"With a production fee of 2 million, you can recoup 9 million in advertising fees, and then sell it for 5 million. Is that what you mean? In other words, this series can earn 6- million?" Mr. Wang's eyes flashed.

"We will also deduct Xia Haoyang's script fee. If we really have to sell it to us with full rights, this script will not be cheap."

"One hundred million?" Mr. Wang said softly.

"It should be said that if we want to get the complete copyright of the script, including peripherals, games, and various adaptation rights, we will ask for at least 100 million! At least, and I myself feel that 100 million is not enough, 150 million is about the same, and we can even give One hundred and eighty million!" the director said seriously.

"So expensive? 180 million for the script copyright of a nine-episode TV series?"

"It's worth it. Believe me, Mr. Wang. Once this series is filmed, it will be turned into games, variety shows, and even various peripheral products will sell like crazy. When we have these copyrights, we can easily make money back." The director was very anxious. .

"Director Zhang, how many years have we been friends?" Mr. Wang looked at the teacup on the table and asked gently.

"Mr. Wang, I promise you with my forty years of directing career, this film will definitely make you money, and the total revenue from scripts to game adaptations to variety show adaptations and other messes will definitely exceed 1.5 billion or more. You must buy this script! Buy it for 200 million! Or even 300 million!"

"Are Xia Haoyang willing to sell it?" Mr. Wang looked at Director Zhang again.

"Talk, he is young, and young people are arrogant. An arrogant young man will not care about immediate interests. He always feels that he will write a better script, so he can talk! But I want to say, maybe this script is his The most glorious moment of my life.”

"Director Zhang thinks so highly of this script?"

"Mr. Wang, I said it in the first sentence, maybe this is a milestone that changes the history of Chinese TV dramas!"

"Director Zhang, go and make a quote. I'll give you 200 million! If the other party's quote is within 200 million, you can directly sign the contract. If it's higher than 200 million, give me a call!"

In Xia Haoyang's office of Fat Cat Studio, six bosses including manager Xiao Liu, Ju Zi, and Zeng Jingyi are all there.

"Thirty million? That's the script fee for one episode! The starting price is 200 million! 300 million is just right! Don't think it's expensive, don't discount it! You have to study the shopping psychology of rich people, and find a boss who is willing to spend 200 million to buy a script I don’t care if I spend an extra 100 million. What does it mean to be a successful person? Successful people buy expensive things and don’t buy the best. Therefore, our slogan for selling scripts is: don’t ask for the best, but ask for the most expensive!” Xia Haoyang was fooling around in the office and bragging.

"Fat man, why don't you brag so hard that you don't go to heaven? You start selling a nine-episode TV series for 200 million? 300 million is just right. You think all the scripts you write can be turned into fucking gold. You'll die for 30 million!" Han Xiyu dismissed it.

"How do you people understand the ingenuity of this script? It's useless to tell you. Look, I believe Mr. Wang knows the goods."

"No, tell me, tell me how clever this script is, how it is so good that it can be sold for two to three hundred million. The most expensive TV drama scripts in China are currently only tens of millions. You want 200 million, what? Why don't you go grab the money?" Juzi also didn't believe that a nine-episode TV series could be sold at such an expensive price.

“Mr.

Xia Haoyang pressed the hands-free button, and everyone was stunned when they heard Fei Jie's quotation.

Xia Haoyang did not hesitate: "Tell Director Zhang that the price is too low and re-quote."

"Damn it, Fatty isn't bragging. Are they really offering hundreds of millions? This fucking TV series script is only nine episodes long. What Fatty wrote in ten days is worth 100 million?" Han Xiyu was frightened.

“Mr. It didn't take long for Fei Jie to call again.

No one spoke this time, they just looked at Xia Haoyang in disbelief! A script written in ten days can sell for 200 million! Damn it, the fat man is really going to heaven!
