I am a leader in the entertainment industry

Chapter 150: Atmosphere

After a whole day of negotiations, the price was not agreed upon, but it was much higher than the initial offer of the four TV stations. And the key point was that their initial film-buying alliance was successfully broken up by the experienced Yang Xue.

The result of the one-day negotiation was that the four TV stations had already offered Dragon TV, Beijing TV, and Lizhi TV the first broadcast, and Mango TV and Beijing TV won the second round in advance.

However, the three TV stations were only willing to offer 10 million yuan each for the former, and were unwilling to increase it by a cent.

As for the latter, compared with the 5 million they initially proposed, they only raised their offer by 5.

5 million each.

The two TV stations reached a price of 11 million in the second round.

The more TV stations that premiere the show, the less valuable the second run will be. Everyone knows this. Therefore, although this price has not yet reached Miracle Media’s expectations, the day’s negotiations were still fruitful.

In the evening, Xiao Jiaer, as the general manager, once again hosted a banquet to entertain the TV station leaders who came to watch the film and then came to negotiate.

While the dinner was going on, Wu Haixiong, deputy director of Blueberry TV, and his four companions, who had come from Zhejiang Province, finally finished watching all 13 episodes of the TV series before the negotiations ended.

After watching the film, Wu Haixiong couldn’t even wait until tomorrow. He asked the Miracle Media staff who stayed in the company to watch the film with them to help contact Li Qi. He wanted to talk to Li Qi immediately.

After receiving the call, Li Qi rushed to the company. Hearing that they had not had dinner yet, he casually invited them to have dinner together. Everything could be discussed after dinner. But Wu Haixiong said directly:”Let’s talk first and then eat. If not, I can’t eat.””

So, at nine o’clock in the evening, leaving the other staff outside, Li Qi and Wu Haixiong closed the door in Li Qi’s office and prepared to negotiate directly.

In fact, Li Qi never thought that Wu Haixiong actually had such great courage.

Under the bright lights, the aroma of tea rises

After Li Qi finished making the tea, Wu Haixiong thanked him, but he didn’t drink the tea, and he didn’t say anything polite or complimenting. He just got straight to the point.

“We want to broadcast it exclusively, not share it with any other TV station, and we have to wait until our station has finished broadcasting it before we can start the second round of broadcasting! At the same time, we also want the second and third round broadcasting rights for this drama, and we require that you authorize no more than five stations for the second round broadcast, and no more than ten stations for the third round broadcast!”

After a pause, he stared at Li Qi with his gleaming eyes and said,”As for the price, don’t worry, the price I offer will definitely allow our negotiations to end quickly! Exclusive first broadcast, plus second and third rounds, 50 million! Is that okay?”

To be honest, after hearing this price, although Li Qi already knew that he was a decisive person through previous information collection, and he did have the power to make offers on behalf of the satellite TV stations, he was still surprised to hear that the price he quoted was higher than the sum of the three first broadcasts and two second rounds of the four satellite TV stations combined.

The first broadcast is of course the most valuable, and the exclusive first broadcast, with the first word of the news, is even more valuable.

But even if Li Qi himself estimated that the first broadcast, no matter who it was sold to or how many companies it was sold to, the total amount could exceed 35 million, he would be satisfied.

After all, this is only my first film and television work. No matter how confident I am or how good the quality is, it still needs to be verified by the audience and accumulate word of mouth one by one.

As for the second round of authorization, Li Qi’s bottom line is that it cannot be less than 4 million per family.

As for the subsequent three and four rounds, they will naturally be sold at lower prices. However, by that time, there are so many TV stations in China that we can authorize more. The unit price is low, but the sales volume is large. Therefore, it should not be a problem for the three and four rounds to sell more than 30 million. At that point, in fact, it will be a huge profit.

But now, as soon as Wu Haixiong opened his mouth, he offered 50 million directly for the exclusive first broadcast plus the second round, which almost reached his expected value for the first broadcast and the second round. How could he not sell it?

In fact, not only Li Qi, everyone knew that no matter how much Yang Xue and the others negotiated, in the end, the total price offered by the four TV stations would not reach 50 million!

So, at this moment, even though Li Qi forced himself to remain calm, he knew that he could not hide the surprise on his face!

So, after a brief pause, he simply said with some emotion:”Director Wu is really, haha, thank you for your recognition of my work, but, 50 million, are you really sure you can make it back by selling advertisements? We don’t accept installment payments.”

Wu Haixiong smiled when he heard this.”Once the contract is signed, we will transfer the money within three days! As for whether the investment can be recovered, that is a business secret. Please forgive me for not telling you.”

Li Qi also smiled, and after thinking for a moment, he said,”I have the power to decide how many second- and third-wheelers to sell. Even if it’s just for my own benefit, I will definitely not let the authorization become a big deal. But, I’m sorry, I can’t write this into the contract.”

Seeing Wu Haixiong nodded, as if to show his understanding, he hesitated for a moment and added,”If Director Wu can accept it, then, for 58 million, we can shake hands and make a deal!” (To read the exciting novel, go to Flylu Novel Network!)

However, after saying this, he regretted it!

The other party’s offer has already completely satisfied me, and adding another eight million is really a bit stingy!

At this moment, Li Qi subconsciously noticed from the corner of his eye that Wu Haixiong seemed to smile meaningfully, and he suddenly felt more and more ashamed. At this moment, he even wondered if his face was starting to turn red.

At this time, Wu Haixiong quickly put away his smile and said seriously:”Fifty-eight million, deal!”

I have to say, at that moment, Li Qi felt as if he suddenly understood the meaning of the word”atmosphere”!

Today, he knows that the truly awesome people can be generous not only to their friends, but also to their negotiation opponents, even when they should haggle over every penny.

Only when my eyes and my heart are filled with higher, bigger and more important things, will I not be too fussy about the small gains and losses of the present moment.

Obviously, in comparison, although his wealth had made him not pay much attention to the one million, at the critical moment, it seemed that his eyes were still uncontrollably focused on the eight million, while the other party did not care about the gains and losses of the 357 eight million.

Perhaps for him, if he could successfully get this TV series that he was optimistic about, even if he spent a few million more, it would not be a problem.

At this time, the situation was obviously as Wu Haixiong said at the beginning. The negotiation took less than three minutes. Even when the tea Li Qi had just made was still hot, he stood up, stretched out his hand, and said with a smile:”So, happy cooperation?”[]

Li Qi stood up a little stiffly, stretched out his hand, shook his big hand, and said with a smile:”Happy cooperation!”

Letting go, Wu Haixiong smiled, a look of relief appeared on his face, and said:”Well, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief and go to have a meal in a relaxed manner. Haha, great talent, you are the landlord, in your northern dialect���Can you treat me to a nice meal?”

Li Qi smiled,”Of course!”

But he paused, put away his smile, lowered his head, hesitated for a moment, and then raised his head again, saying seriously:”I’m sorry, I’ve really become accustomed to it, and I’m not used to your straightforward approach, Director Wu. So, I won’t say much, 50 million! I don’t want the 8 million, because I’m grateful to Director Wu for appreciating my first work so much.”

Wu Haixiong was obviously stunned when he heard this, but then he laughed, his eyes less shrewd and more sincere,”Interesting, interesting. It seems that I really have to treat you to a good meal tonight! For the eight million you returned, you can arrange someone to take them out for dinner. Let’s find another place and have a couple of drinks, you and I?”

Li Qi laughed when he heard this,”That’s exactly what I meant!”

Wu Haixiong laughed out loud
