Chapter 44 Sky-High Script Fee! ?

Sunday, July 9th.

Yesterday, the filming of "True and False Champion" was completed, and the crew was temporarily disbanded, waiting for the broadcast of new episodes.

Everyone has worked hard for nearly a month, and it is time to take a break. If you tense your nerves, it will not be good for the subsequent shooting.

During the acquisition yesterday, Liu Tianci, Shi Shaoming and Xiao Sheng invited Yin Jun to have lunch today at Xingji Tea Restaurant.

After Yin Jun arrived, he first greeted Brother Xing and a group of workers, put the gifts bought for them on the counter, and chatted with them for a while before entering the private room on the second floor.

Because the filming was really busy, after resigning, Yin Jun had not come back to Xingji Tea Restaurant. When he came back this time, he naturally had to pay attention to etiquette.

Brother Xing and the others knew that Yin Jun wrote the script of "Bao Qingtian". They were also happy for Yin Jun's experience of going through such hardships and finally succeeding.

In the private room, Liu Tianci, Xiao Sheng and Shi Shaoming had already ordered a lot of small plates and food, and they were eating and drinking slowly at this time.

They have also been busy during this time, and today is also rarely free, mainly because of the relaxation of the mind.

Yesterday was the fifth episode of "Bao Qingtian", and it was the second time it was broadcast at 8 o'clock. As a result, its ratings lived up to expectations, increasing by another 2 percentage points to 55%, officially surpassing the second-place "Bao Qingtian". Twice the 27% of Yi Tian Tu Long Ji, which really formed a crushing situation.

At this point, no matter how pessimistic people are, they already know that it is a matter of time for "Bao Qingtian" to break 60% of the ratings, and even 70% is not impossible.

What makes Jiashi even more happy is not this record in Hong Kong.

But yesterday, China Television Station on Baodao officially made a request to introduce "Bao Qingtian". The price they gave was 20,000 Hong Kong dollars for an episode, which was rejected by Liang Shuyi without thinking.

Liang Shuyi's condition was 20% of the advertising share, which was also directly rejected by them.

But both sides actually have the meaning of cooperation, so most of the time they will find a balance and achieve a win-win situation.

After the ratings came out this morning, before they came over, Singapore TV also sent someone to find Liang Shuyi, who also offered to buy the broadcast rights of "Bao Qingtian" at a price of 20,000 Hong Kong dollars per episode. Liang Shuyi was a little moved, after all, Singapore is too small. Now, 20,000 episodes is already a very sincere price for them.

According to the contact person in Singapore, not only them, but also Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Vietnam are also very excited, and it only takes two days to come to negotiate.

Once the TV drama negotiations in these places are completed, at least one episode of "Bao Qingtian" will reach an income of more than 200,000 Hong Kong dollars, and the average cost of "Bao Qingtian" so far is only more than 9,000 per episode. How much money does it make?

From the end of the road to the sudden blooming of Liu Yanhuaming, Liu Tianci and Shi Shaoming looked at Yin Jun, and they really felt like they were looking at the savior.

But today, they are looking for Yin Jun, not just to chat, but to discuss something very important.

That is the follow-up script problem of "Bao Qingtian".

At the beginning, Liu Tianci, Shi Shaoming and Xiao Sheng all knew that Yin Jun not only wrote three stories, but at least seven or eight.

But they didn't have much confidence at the time, so they pretended they didn't hear about it, and didn't mention buying the follow-up script.

On Friday morning, when "Bao Qingtian" broke the record at 7 o'clock, Liang Shuyi had already raised this issue. On Saturday morning, he saw that "Bao Qingtian"'s ratings exploded, "Eternal Dragon Slayer" and "Transformer Doctor". ", after becoming the number one in the eight o'clock file, Liang Shuyi immediately asked them to start discussing how to do the follow-up episodes.

Everyone knows that Yin Jun is a smart person, especially when they heard Xiao Sheng talk about it two days ago, Yin Jun remained calm and worked hard when the ratings were low; Just as expected.

"Don't take him as a 16-year-old young man, I think he is like a 46-year-old wise middle-aged man." Xiao Sheng said to the senior management.

Let's say that Xiao Sheng's evaluation is a bit exaggerated, but with Yin Jun's performance, everyone already knows that it is absolutely impossible to imagine that it is like before, 500 yuan to buy an episode.

In fact, since the beginning, Yin Jun has never talked about the script again. After the ratings have exploded, he still doesn't mention it. The reason is obvious. He is waiting for someone from Jiashi to come to the door to talk.

If it is based on the current situation, and if it continues to be prosperous in the future, I am afraid that it will be a little impossible to give Yin Jun the highest level of 1200 episodes.

Other screenwriters can get a price of 1200 per episode, which is the most prosperous episode of the year, and it is impossible to get it every year.

But Yin Jun is different from these screenwriters. A big difference is that he is not an employee of the TV station and has no contractual relationship. He writes the script as a single transaction - in addition to the reward, other screenwriters can also guarantee income for one month. About a thousand yuan, but Yin Jun does not have this guarantee, so he will definitely ask for higher.

Also, although the ratings of "Bao Qingtian" are very high, other TV stations are not necessarily willing to agree to Yin Jun's lion talk, because this show is gone, they can still do the next one, it is impossible to do it for Yin Jun. Destroy the overall salary structure, anyway, it will not die without this TV series.

Kaishi is different.

If Jiashi lacks this TV series, it will be finished soon!

There is no need to wait until the advertising investment conference in August. This low morale alone is enough to make Jiashi fall apart.

I believe that Yin Jun also knows this, so his lion opened his mouth, it should be affirmative.

This is not because Yin Jun is very greedy. Under such conditions, no one would be so foolish as to give up their due rights. If it was everyone in the room, it would be the same.

Considering such a complicated situation, Ling Xuhua, the manager of the public relations department, directly suggested that the screenwriting team should simply continue to write the script of "Bao Qingtian" and write it all by themselves, which would save a large part of the cost.

Before Liu Tianci could speak, Liang Shuyi first rejected the proposal.

What a joke!

If Jiashi's screenwriting team had this ability, would they still be beaten like a dog by Wireless and Li?

At this time, if you kick Yin Jun away, the sequel "Bao Qingtian" is not bad, but what if you screw it up?

If you screw it up, can you still save the audience and let Yin Jun come back to continue writing? How much will it cost then?

Jiashi can't go wrong at all now, otherwise no one can bear the consequences of failure.

Besides, no matter how high the screenwriter's script price is, how high can it be?

Now the other cities are actively in contact. According to the quality of "Bao Qingtian", at least it will get a profit of 200,000 episodes. Even if Yin Jun is given 1,500 or 2,000 episodes, how much does it account for the entire profit? It's nothing at all!

However, Liang Shuyi still agreed with Ling Xuhua's idea, and she still wanted to keep the cost down as much as possible, so as not to deal with the situation in the future.

In order to achieve this goal, she sent Liu Tianci, Shi Shaoming and Xiao Sheng, who had the best relationship with Yin Jun, to discuss the price with Yin Jun collectively today.

After all, the time is relatively tight. The crew needs to shoot carefully, and it takes time to polish it. The earlier the script is obtained, the earlier work can be started.

However, this morning, when they came into contact with the contact person of Singapore TV station, when they knew that Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and other countries were also interested in buying it, Liang Shuyi and the others were a little uneasy.

As a result, the script fee of 2,000 per episode, which was originally planned, was abruptly set by Liang Shuyi to the sky-high price of 3,000 per episode.

Of course, it's best not to.
