Chapter 28 Not Qualified to Negotiate Conditions

"Junzi, you haven't written a script in the mainland before?" Liu Tianci raised his head again, not surprised, but in admiration, "Your script is completely better than the average screenwriter! Now, I I have more confidence in you! Tell me, what are your conditions, but don’t kill the rich to help the poor, we, Jiashi, don’t have much money.”

Yin Jun smiled and said, "Brother Ci, how much do you usually pay for the script?"

"Usually we write it ourselves, but if we have a good book, we will buy it." Liu Tianci said, "The average book is 300 yuan per episode, and the better one can be given 500-700. Generally, there are no accidents, and the highest is 1000-1200 for one episode. If the other two scripts of yours are at the same level as "The Case of Gu Mei", I'll give you... 700, how about it?"

"I can only need 500 episodes." Yin Jun said seriously, "but I hope Jiashi can agree to three conditions for me."

"Say!"

"The first condition is that "Bao Qingtian" is my hard work. I hope to work with the film crew throughout the whole process, so that they will not change me beyond recognition." Yin Jun said.

"Could it be that you still want the position of producer?" Liu Tianci frowned and said, "This can't be done, there is no such rule."

"It's not the producer, it's just that I have the right to make suggestions." Yin Jun said, "Brother Ci, I wrote the story, and I naturally know how to best express its meaning."

"This... Okay, you try to discuss it with the producer, try not to get into trouble, come to me if you have anything, okay?" Liu Tianci said.

"Understood." Yin Jun breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "The second condition, I hope that it can be produced and broadcast as soon as possible, preferably in mid-July."

"This is no problem." Liu Tianci said: "If it goes well, it will actually be broadcast in early July, but I don't know if there is a schedule at that time. Anyway, it can be broadcast in July."

"The third condition is that the actor Bao Qingtian here, I have a prototype. He is a friend of mine who sings opera, and he is also an apprentice of Fen Chrysanthemum. Basically, the form and movements are all written according to him. I It's not that Jia Shi has to use him, but I just hope that the actor will be given a chance at that time, and I will give you a look, he will definitely be able to act vividly." Yin Jun said.

"Okay, when the time comes, you can come to him and let's take a look. If it works, let him be." Liu Tianci was not picky either. Anyway, he had to wait for others to decide.

"Thank you, Brother Ci." The three most important conditions were met, and Yin Jun felt much more relaxed, "Brother Ci, when the TV station purchased the script, could the screenwriter retain the exclusive right to write the subsequent script? Or something like this? Peripheral copyright rights?"

"Hey, how do you know this?" Liu Tianci became puzzled. "Are you really from the Mainland? Are you sure you're not from the United States?"

"Of course not, I just read about these copyrights and rights in books." Yin Jun scratched his head.

"Hehe, you, I really think too much!" Liu Tianci laughed and laughed: "In Xiangjiang, there is no such thing! As long as you sell the script, all the rights and interests belong to the TV station! How can there be such a good thing left? to you?"

"I understand!"

Yin Jun sighed inwardly, but he still accepted such conditions calmly.

After all, before that, he also checked the information, and Xiangjiang is indeed such a pot.

If you want to change such a thing, I am afraid you can only wait until he has a lofty position and power in the Hong Kong entertainment industry!

...

All TV stations will have time to purchase films.

For example, this "Bao Qingtian" originally produced by Baodao was bought by Asian TV more than ten years later, and it was a magical drama that was played wirelessly.

After wireless entered the 21st century, the only drama with the highest ratings of over 50% was also bought, and its name was "Da Jang Geum".

In Jiashi, the manager responsible for outsourcing films, that is, buying films, is called Shi Shaoming.

At first glance, this person sounds unfamiliar, but in the first few years of the 1970s, this was a TVB general, Zhou Runfa's first prosperous drama - "Frenzy", he was the executive director, and then Wang Tianlin and Wang Tianlin were hung on it. Now the name of Liang Shuyi, the general manager of Jiashi, but he controls the main shooting details.

"Frenzy" is a Hong Kong TV series in the true sense. TVB's TV series that aired at 7-9 p.m. in the past usually consisted of two or three episodes of a story, which people are not used to watching nowadays.

That is, after "Frenzy", TVB began to produce long TV series, and then Li's and Jia Shi also continued to increase the number of TV episodes.

It is precisely because Shi Shaoming is very talented that Liang Shuyi brought him with him when he came to Jiashi.

How talented Shi Shaoming is, you can tell from Wireless's attitude towards him.

After the salary increase failed to keep people, Wireless was relentless, and directly asked Shi Shaoming to sit in an office to commute to get off work. There was no one in the office without a phone or any office supplies, just like facing the wall, until the wireless was abruptly After the contract is completed, you can leave.

In the first two years after coming to Jiashi, everyone was still doing well, but as the wireless got relieved and Li Tian became more aggressive, the life of Jiashi became more and more difficult. Shi Shaoming was in charge of buying the film. The manager was also a little bored.

He did not regret that he came to Jiashi. With the poaching fee and salary paid by Jiashi for the past few years, he was able to earn all his life in wireless. After the collapse of the great Jiashi, he started a small business by himself. It is also more tired than a dog in the wireless, eating like a pig, and giving labor like a beggar.

After lunch, Shi Shaoming, who was reading the newspaper, saw Liu Tianci running in excitedly, and smiled uncontrollably: "Ciguan, what are you doing in such a hurry? Sister-in-law found out that you stole someone?"

"Go!" Liu Tianci and Shi Shaoming are good friends, and they waved their hands when they heard the words, "Stop talking nonsense to me, come and look at these scripts."

"What script made you like it so much?" Shi Shaoming felt a little curious, "Didn't you say you've been desperate for the bastards in the screenwriting team?"

"Nonsense, what kind of ability can they have with that group of cubs? My script was written by a genius." Liu Tianci sat on the chair, wiping his sweat and said, "Just one word - absolutely!"

"Oh? Then I want to take a look."

Shi Shaoming became curious and picked up the first book on it, "Huh? "Bao Qingtian"'s "The Case of Gu Mei"? Is this the case? ... Act 1..."

At first, Shi Shaoming was still talking and watching, but after a minute, he had closed his mouth and looked at it slowly and carefully.

It wasn't until 30 minutes later that Shi Shaoming closed his eyes and thought about it for a while before he reached out to the second script.

As a result, a hand was pressed on the script.

Looking up angrily, it was Liu Tianci's smiling face: "How is it? Is it cool?"

"not bad."

Shi Shaoming said reservedly, "Be stronger than that group of people."

Liu Tianci exposed it mercilessly: "Just keep pretending! I've never seen you read the script for half an hour now!"

Shi Shaoming laughed, "Okay, don't tease me! Whose script is this? Where did you find it?"

"It was written by Jun Zai, a little guy who runs the hall in the tea restaurant I often go to." Liu Tianci briefly explained what he had seen on the second floor of Xingji Tea Restaurant in the past two days and the conditions for his conversation with Yin Jun. Once again, "What do you think?"

"What else can I do? You blew all the cowhide out. If it doesn't work, don't you feel ashamed?" Shi Shaoming shrugged, "I have no opinion, this book is very good, it should be OK to take it out... It's just that the audience's taste is difficult to figure out, such as this kind of slow, ancient crime-solving drama with a little drama, I don't know if it will work."

"Yeah, I also have this doubt. After all, there are too many cases where good scripts are thrown into the street. The key is whether it is suitable or not." Liu Tianci said, "But anyway, we have already talked about 500 yuan for an episode, these three The script is only 20 episodes, and the total is 10,000 yuan. Let's save a little bit, it should be 20,000 yuan per episode, right?"

"Hey, 15,000 will do if all the newcomers are enabled." Shi Shaoming smiled, "Didn't that Junzi say, the male protagonist, Bao Gong, does he have a recommendation? Fen Chrysanthemum's apprentice, the protagonist who plays this kind of drama mode, is It's just right. 300,000 yuan to make a drama, barely supporting it for about a month, it can be regarded as an explanation to the TV station, so as to avoid the situation where there is no drama to broadcast, it's really shameful! "

Speaking of this, Shi Shaoming sighed and smiled bitterly: "I can't believe that we were so ambitious at the beginning, but now we are like this! What we are shooting now is just lingering, and it's just a matter of closing down!"

Liu Tianci was also a little sad when he heard the words.

Jiashi has become what it is today, and there are various factors, but everyone knows that it is meaningless to discuss these now, Jiashi has accumulated a lot of hard work, and many people have begun to find a way out for themselves.

In other words, the high-level people like myself are still trying to make the last effort there.

Since the beginning of June, the senior management of Jiashi has taken all the stars to every area of ​​Xiangjiang, including poor places like Tiaojingling, to promote their "July Offensive". Rely on a few well-crafted dramas to make the final push.

Right now, it doesn't look very good.

According to some surveys, everyone is interested in "The History of Celebrities" starring Huan Xue, Zheng Yuling and others. As for the "Golden Sword Lover" produced by the new producer Xu Ke, and the production of "The Golden Sword Lover" by the new director Xu Ke, and the director of the wireless job-hopping general Lin Lingdong "Pioneer", "The Reasoning Theater", which focuses on reasoning and solving cases, and "Harrow Homecoming at Night", which is a conversation type, are not within the scope of everyone's consideration.

Seeing these investigations, the hearts of the high-level executives were cold, and all of a sudden they lost interest in doing things, and they were very depressed.

Just like Shi Shaoming is today.

"No matter what, we still have to continue to work hard." Liu Tianci raised some spirits and said, "Uncle He is not bad for us, but we still have to stand on the last post."

"I know." Shi Shaoming nodded, "That's why I agreed to buy this "Bao Qingtian" and make it to see. I hope it can make people look forward to it!"

"Then I'll ask Jun Zai to come over to sign the contract later, and then I'll go look for someone who is free to supervise this drama." Liu Tianci said.

"Okay, if you want me to support something, just say it." Shi Shaoming said.
