After the divorce, my wife and I were reborn

Jiang Xia shook her head lightly: "It's okay, auntie, I just arrived too, besides, it's still early, there's still time."

He opened the door and sat in the co-pilot. After fastening his seat belt, the car started slowly and drove towards the TV station.

"You're very handsome today." Li Weiya turned her head and glanced at Jiang Xia, her eyes brightened.

Today he was wearing a white shirt, casual trousers, and his slightly long bangs were combed back. He looked quite mature and handsome.

"Boys should dress more maturely after they are 18 years old." Jiang Xia laughed.

"Isn't it because you're going to discuss business today, and you're afraid that the TV station will think you're too young to be bullied?" Li Weiya narrowly asked.

Jiang Xia blushed slightly: "Aunt Li, if you don't tell the truth, it's boring."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Li Weiya chuckled: "By the way, have you brought all your things?"

"Well, I brought them all."

"That's good."

"Aunt Li, will I be the one to talk about it later or you?"

"Of course you take the initiative. I'm just a negotiating consultant, and I will give you suitable suggestions at the right time, but there is one thing you must keep in mind. Hold your breath and don't say your bottom line at the beginning."

"I know that."

After more than an hour, the two finally arrived at Yudu TV Station. Looking at the building in front of them, they were somewhat shocked.

"Auntie, have you been here before?"

"Does it count this time?"

"Believe me, I will come here often in the future."

Jiang Xia took a deep breath and walked in first. Yudu TV Station was only his first step to reach the pinnacle of the world.

Seeing his extremely confident back, Li Weiya was slightly stunned, thinking of the high-quality content of cat and mouse, she believed it without any reason in her heart.

Maybe this young man will really leave a strong mark in the animation industry.

For a moment, she felt some anticipation in her heart.

The two filled out the visit form at the front desk, and under the guidance of the staff, they took the elevator to the previously agreed floor.

After explaining her intentions, she was taken to the reception room. Looking at the scenery outside the window, Jiang Xia took a few deep breaths, but she still couldn't suppress her nervous and excited heart.

After drinking almost two glasses of water, a mature woman in a small suit finally opened the door and walked in with a professional smile.

"Is it Qi Tian Animation? Hello. I am the editor in charge of the animation column in Taiwan. My surname is Zhou, and my name is Zhou Lu." Zhou Lu subconsciously ignored Jiang Xia, walked up to Li Weiya, and held out her hand with a friendly face.

"Sorry, I'm not the boss of Qitian Animation, but he is." Li Weiya took a step back with a chuckle, and pointed to Jiang Xia at the side at the same time.

Zhou Lu followed her gaze and was stunned. Is he the boss?But it's too young, right?

Although the hair is combed to look like an adult, but the face still looks young, I wonder if he is 20 years old?

Jiang Xia exhaled lightly, smiled and stretched out her hand calmly.

"Hello Editor Zhou, my name is Jiang Xia, Jiang from the Yangtze River, and Xia from Xia Tian. I am the boss of Qitian Animation and the creator of Tom and Jerry."

Chapter 87 Negotiations

There was silence in the reception room for two seconds before Zhou Lu recovered from the stunned gaze.

Seeing the calm posture of the boy in front of her, she immediately smiled apologetically: "I'm really sorry, Boss Jiang, I just didn't expect the person who created cat and mouse to be so young."

Jiang Xia smiled lightly: "Many people say that."

"May I take the liberty to ask, how old is Boss Jiang this year?"

"I just graduated from high school." He said honestly.

Zhou Lu took a deep breath silently. An ordinary person is still studying, but he has already created a company and becomes his own boss.

According to the cycle of animation production, doesn't it mean that he was still reading when he made cat and mouse?

Moreover, there are no courses related to animation production in high school, and the fact that he is self-taught and can be used in practice is enough to show his excellence.

"Boss Jiang is really a hero out of a boy." Zhou Lu sighed subconsciously.

He deals with senior people in the industry in his daily work, and it is the first time for him to be as young as Jiang Xia.

"Editor Zhou praised it absurdly. I just liked animation since I was a child." Jiang Xia smiled slightly.

"Let's get to know each other again, Zhou Lu, the editor in charge of the children's channel of Yudu TV station." Zhou Lu stretched out her hand and said.

Jiang Xia looked indifferent: "Qi Tian Animation, Jiang Xia."

The two shook hands in a friendly manner. After such an interruption, the atmosphere in the room became a lot easier invisibly.

Li Weiya nodded secretly as she watched from the side. She didn't see the slightest nervousness in Jiang Xia's body. Her movements, demeanor, and conversations were all well-crafted, and this mature temperament is often unique to some entrepreneurs or leaders.

But as a cheap student like myself, he is not even a class leader in the school.

All this can only show that Jiang Xiasheng is a boss.

"Boss Jiang, please sit down." Zhou Lu said politely, "I won't say much about those scenes, let's get straight to the point?"

"That's exactly what I mean." Jiang Xia nodded slightly.

Zhou Lu asked: "Is it your company's wish to let cat and mouse be broadcast on Yudu TV station?"

"Before answering this question, I would like to ask the editor Zhou and the animation column team's opinion on cat and mouse." He smiled and kicked the ball back. "This is very important to me, to cat and mouse."

"Can I take this question as Boss Jiang's inspection of our TV station?" Zhou Lu joked.

"I can't say it's an investigation, editor Zhou, just think I'm young and want to know more about the situation." Jiang Xia tilted her head slightly, making an expression unique to her age.

To put it simply, it was a handsome boy who sold his cuteness to a mature big sister.

There's no denying that the surprise move worked.

"Okay, then I'll talk about it."

Zhou Lu smiled and said: "Boss Jiang sent me the videos before, including some PVs posted on the Internet. My colleagues in the department and I have watched them all. To be honest, the quality of the content that has been streamed out so far has already made me a grown-up. This is why I was able to sit down and talk to Boss Jiang today."

Jiang Xia nodded, her words were similar to Li Weiya's previous guess.

An excellent animation work will never lack channels to play.

"Qitian Animation also hopes to cooperate closely with Guitai." Jiang Xia said with a smile.

Speaking of this, the foundation for cooperation between the two parties has been laid, and the next step is to see whether the proposed price is satisfactory.

"So Boss Jiang, did you bring the cat and the mouse today?"

"of course."

He took out the backed up mobile hard drive and handed it over, knowing that the TV station needed to conduct a detailed evaluation of the animation itself before quoting.But just to be on the safe side, there are only five episodes on the hard drive.

"Please wait."

Zhou Lu sent the hard drive out, and only Jiang Xia and Li Weiya were left in the reception room.

"Aunt Li, is there anything wrong with what I just said?"

"It's okay, within the normal range. However, the TV station's willingness to cooperate is quite strong."

Li Weiya said with a smile: "We'll see how they make their demands later, and you'll see what they do. If I hear something unreasonable, I'll cough and remind you."

"it is good."

About half an hour later, Zhou Lu came back with the mobile hard drive. Her face was calm, and she couldn't tell how they were discussing.

"Boss Jiang, I want to ask, how many cat and mouse episodes do you have?" Zhou Lu asked lightly.

Instead of asking the producer's price, but directly asking about the number of animation episodes, Jiang Xia felt more or less confident when he said this.

"Ten episodes." He said truthfully.

"There are only ten episodes..." She frowned slightly.

"How about the production speed?"

"Currently, there is an episode every half a month. If we speed up the efficiency, we can release about 3 episodes a month."

In all fairness, in today's animation market, this speed is not slow.

"Boss Jiang, our station is very interested in cat and mouse, but the number of episodes currently is too small, and the average duration of an episode is so short. If two episodes are broadcast every day, it will only be enough for five days."

"If I remember correctly, "King Kong Gourd Baby" only has 6 episodes, right? It has become a classic." Jiang Xia responded unhurriedly.

"However, Calabash Baby has a complete plot, while Tom and Jerry adopts the form of a unit drama. Each episode is a short story, and the stickiness of the audience will be greatly reduced." Zhou Lu said.

Audience stickiness affects the ratings. If the ratings do not increase significantly during the animation broadcast period, it is by no means good news for the TV station.

In other words, this is the TV station deliberately lowering the price.

If possible, the TV station would like to get the broadcasting rights for free.

Li Weiya coughed lightly at this moment, Jiang Xia knew it in her heart.

"Editor Zhou, you are wrong. The so-called audience stickiness is not linked to the form of animation, but to the quality of the animation."

He said confidently: "Even if it's a unit drama, as long as the story is good enough, after watching one episode, you will naturally watch the second episode. Didn't you just say that just some clips leaked on the Internet have already made you feel like this?" Adults are very interested."

Zhou Lu was noncommittal, the evaluation of cat and mouse on the Internet is indeed very high, and it will indeed attract some people to watch after the broadcast, but the question is, how many people will keep following it?

"Are you so sure that cat and mouse will bring good ratings to the station?"

"Now is the Internet information age, and the ratings of TV are decreasing year by year, why not take a gamble?"

He went on to say: "The ten episodes of cat and mouse are neither long nor short. For TV stations, the cost of trial and error can be said to be pitifully low. If the ratings are not good, you can directly cut them off. You will not choose to continue to cooperate with me again, Editor Zhou, don’t you think so?”
