This scene is hilarious.

Probably no one expected this to happen. The major TV stations sent a group of minions to deal with Luo Xun. As a result, the minions found that this unpopular "Wulin Wai Zhuan" was unexpectedly interesting after watching the film!

What is low cost?

What is shoddy?

In the face of a good enough plot, these problems are not a big deal. Let's say that "Crazy Stone" has a low cost, and the cows they made are still a big hit!

But it happened.

Those who came to the scene were all minions, and no one had the right to make the final decision. If it was really Zhuo Shao, the head of the film purchasing department of a TV station, who was present today, there would be no need to ask for instructions, and the matter could be decided on the spot!

Now.

The most difficult thing for this group of minions is how to convince the leaders and make them believe that "Wulin Wai Zhuan" is really a very good work worth investing in.

In the corner.

Everyone is on the phone.

As a result, one of the TV station representatives was scolded: "I asked you to go over and do the formalities, and after you did the formalities, you told me that our TV station should buy this TV series with more than 80 episodes and a ten million investment?"

"Did you take money from someone?"

"How much kickback did Luo Xun give you?"

"As your boss, I have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice. You want to hide your little tricks from me? Just return the money. You want to cheat the TV station and get the money! No way!"

"..."

Although the representatives of other TV stations were not scolded so much, their faces were not very good after all. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, no one would believe that a TV series with more than 80 episodes and a ten million investment could produce anything.

They could only patiently explain.

It's not that they are really responsible, but they are really optimistic about "Wulin Wai Zhuan". If they really convince the TV station to buy this drama, then once this drama becomes popular, it will be a great achievement for them!

In other words

If this drama slips away from their hands, and if this drama becomes popular in the future, then they will inevitably be criticized by the leaders for their misjudgment, even if the matter is ultimately due to the leaders' lack of attention to the drama invested by Luo Xun.

Xiao Li was also on the phone.

Zhuo Shao's serious voice was on the other end of the phone: "Have you thought it through? If it is because of your personal misjudgment that the station spent money to buy a bad drama that is not even qualified to be broadcast, your future in the station will be difficult."

"Think it through."

Although he was still nervous, Xiao Li was willing to believe his judgment at this moment: "Not only do I think "Wulin Wai Zhuan" is good, but during the film viewing meeting, representatives from other TV stations also watched it very attentively. The laughter on the scene is not deceptive, and now everyone is asking the leaders for instructions. I guess they all have the idea of ​​buying it, especially the representative of Hunan TV. That guy clearly looks determined to win..."

There was silence on the other end for two minutes.

Just when Xiao Li thought that Director Zhuo would reject him, he heard the other party's voice again: "When you entered the company, your predecessor must have told you that judgment and courage are indispensable in our line of work. I still trust you very much, so I can give you certain permissions."

...

In fact, it didn't take an hour for Xu Dong to be surrounded by people who were interested in "Wulin Wai Zhuan". Some wanted to buy it out directly, some just wanted to get the first broadcast rights, and some even wanted to buy the second round of broadcast rights, etc.

The prices were all good.

Xu Dong, who had no confidence in the show, straightened his back and listened to the flattery of these TV station representatives. He couldn't help but feel a little flattered. He was just the head of a small production company. He usually spoke at the nose of major TV stations. If he wanted to promote his own drama, he would often give gifts humbly and treat people to dinner. How could he be surrounded by so many TV station representatives like today?

Not to mention...

Some of the TV stations were of high quality, and they were the kind that Xu Dong couldn't even get a spot to attend when he offered gifts and treated guests. However, he didn't dare to be too arrogant and was polite to everyone, because he deeply understood that the low attitude of these people was not because of him, but because of the big star behind him, Brother Xun!

At this time.

Luo Xun had become Brother Xun in Xu Dong's heart, even though he was a generation older than Luo Xun. After listening to the offers from all parties, he first appeased everyone, and then asked Luo Xun, who had not left the viewing room, for instructions.

"Brother Xun!"

As soon as he entered the door, he eagerly approached, and said in a somewhat excited tone: "Hunan TV just offered 250,000 yuan and wanted to buy out our drama directly. 250,000 yuan per episode, the total price is directly more than 20 million yuan. If we resell it, we will make a lot of money!"

However,

Luo Xun's expression did not change at all, and he even frowned with some dissatisfaction and said, "Buying out "Wulin Wai Zhuan" for 250,000 per episode, is this the sincerity of Hunan TV?"

Xu Dong paused.

This "Wulin Wai Zhuan" only invested 10 million, and sold it for 20 million, which can at least make 10 million. Are you not satisfied with the income of several million in the end?

"Then..."

Xu Dong tested Luo Xun's bottom line. He didn't dare to offend Luo Xun at all, let alone underestimate him: "I will raise the price with Hunan TV. It seems that they may continue to increase the price."

Luo Xun sighed in his heart.

This Xu Dong has the ability, but his vision is not long-term enough and he cannot see the real value of "Wulin Gaiden": "We will not accept the buyout. Today we will only sell the first round of broadcast rights. If we want to continue the negotiation, next time Pai will say Anyone you can talk to comes and talks to me."

They all come to perfunctory themselves.

How could Luo Xun not mind?

Now is a seller's market. His plan is to sell the first round of broadcast rights of "Wulin Gaiden" first. When the show becomes popular, the price of the second round of broadcast rights will naturally not be lower, and the subsequent video website copyright income can also go to By the way, how could an income of several million satisfy Luo Xun's appetite?

That's when.

He believes that these TV stations will also fully realize the value of "Wulin Gaiden". In the future, whether it is game development, animation production, or even the copyright of the movie version, they will come to them one after another. He is very confident about this.

"Oh well."

Xu Dong was not a fool. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that he seemed to have a narrow-minded vision. After all, he had never seen this formation before, so he was inevitably confused. So he asked: "How to calculate the price of the first broadcast?"

"Didn't Hunan TV say 250,000?"

Luo Xun smiled and said: "Let's use this price as the bottom line and see if anyone is willing to bid for the first broadcast rights. If no one is willing, I would rather keep the broadcast rights first, broadcast them online first, and follow the website Sharing contract.”

"good."

Although Xu Dong felt in his heart that the base price of 250,000 yuan per episode was unrealistic for major TV stations to bid, he was still quite convinced of Luo Xun now, so he naturally followed the other party's requirements first.

Go back out the door.

Representatives from all sides of the TV station once again surrounded Xu Dong, but after Xu Dong said the conditions from his mouth, the group of people were stunned, and their enthusiasm was instantly extinguished. Just when Xu Dong thought that the TV station was destined to fail to negotiate, The Hunan TV representative named Sun Miao suddenly said:

"We want it!"

250,000 yuan per episode to buy the premiere!

Sun Miao has a very close relationship with the leader. He communicated with the leader for more than half an hour, convincing the other party to believe in his judgment. Sun Miao did not think anyone could be more courageous than himself——

originally.

He wanted to take advantage of the special situation and prepare to get a bargain, but Luo Xun obviously also knew the value of "Wulin Gaiden" and did not give himself a chance to get a bargain. He directly gave up his idea of ​​buying it out and only had the right to premiere it. He dared to ask for an episode of 250,000 yuan, which was almost to the limit of Sun Miao's endurance.

But he still miscalculated.

The man who talked to him before, Xiao Li, the representative of his old rival Suzhou TV, said seriously: "Isn't it a bidding? We can pay 260,000 to give us the first broadcast rights."

The words fell.

There were exclamations all around.

Are these two families crazy?

Sun Miao's eyelids twitched, knowing that his previous attempt to fool Xiao Li was exposed, and he was not embarrassed. He continued: "Then let's pay 280,000."

Speak confidently.

It seems inevitable.

Just added 20,000 directly.

He was playing psychological warfare. In fact, the maximum price promised by the leader was 250,000. He was also very panicked, but he could not lose his momentum. He had to scare the other party first, so at this time, he could only kill first and then show off. He still had a good relationship with the leader. Seriously, the bet is that this drama can make money!

"Three hundred thousand!"

Xiao Li also added 20,000. He was already at the end of his strength and could not continue to add more. However, at this time, Sun Miao's face suddenly became struggling. He did not make a sound for a full minute, and finally turned into a sigh. :

"admire."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Three hundred thousand an episode broke his psychological defense. After all, "Wulin Gaiden" is a TV series with an investment of ten million. With such an exaggerated price for the first broadcast, no one can guarantee that the TV series can recover the cost for the TV station.

"make a deal!"

Xu Dong suppressed his racing heart, and his admiration for Luo Xun had risen to the level of worship. Damn it, a drama with an investment of 10 million, and the first-round broadcast rights were so profitable, in Xu Dong's view, it was almost impossible Just imagine!

There was also a gasp of air around them.

No one expected that Suzhou Satellite TV would be so bold and willing to spend 300,000 an episode to buy "Wulin Gaiden", but no one dared to make fun of it. They were all people who had seen the finished film, so they naturally knew that this drama was not It's as bad as imagined, and even surprisingly good, otherwise everyone wouldn't want to buy the broadcast rights...

Just this kind of good.

Is it really worth three hundred thousand?

Not many people have confidence in this. Even some of them who are more confident in "Wulin Gaiden" cannot participate in this bidding because they cannot convince the leaders and the TV station. After all, this not only tests the courage of the young people, but also We must take into account the courage of the station and the trust of the leaders in the small staff they send out casually.
