Chapter 481: Through the Back Door

Early on Tuesday morning, more people got yesterday's ratings data.

It is such a ratings report with similar formats and fonts, but the data is definitely consistent. I don’t know how many eyes are filled with astonishment, surprise, or shock.

In the morning, at the temporary small meeting held inside Huaxia TV Station, the deputy director Zhao Bingyuan showed a rare gaffe. It is said that he took pictures of the table on the spot and expressed his dissatisfaction with the current work progress and work attitude of the TV drama production center he was in charge of. .

Although it was impossible for Zhao Bingyuan to criticize by name in front of so many people, everyone knew that this fire was aimed at Feng Yumin, the director of the TV drama production center.

But what was surprising was that Zhao Bingyuan criticized the overall work of the TV drama production center in such a rare way. Some of the deputy directors even tried to defend themselves, but Feng Yumin remained silent from the beginning to the end.

For a while, the atmosphere was a little weird.

Also in the morning, the ratings of "Legend of the New White Snake" exploded last night, and it was spread all over the HUNAN Satellite TV. Come out—in fact, there is no need to deliberately spread anything. Since Tan Dezhang joined HUNAN TV, he has always been known for his diligence. He keeps on stepping every day, either in this department or that department. Up and down, many people can see him almost every day, so the other directors and deputy directors may not come for a few days before the news will gradually spread, but if Tan Dezhang does not come for a day, the news will spread. It spread.

As for why he didn't come, although the official news is that he asked for leave, but firstly he was fine, and secondly he was not sick. The reason for asking for leave is really unreasonable. It is said that the leave slip was dictated by Director Tan, and the secretary helped to write and print it out. He himself did not even send the leave slip, and the reason for the leave slip was almost absurd. It is said that the reason written on it was: I feel tired recently, I am afraid that it will be too complicated, so I hereby ask for a leave of absence for one month to take a rest.

Listen, what is the reason for this!

I'm tired, I can't work anymore, I have to rest for a month.

Not to mention whether this is Director Tan's style of doing things, at least he is not in compliance with the rules! Even if you want to pick someone up, at least you have to find an excuse that I'm sick or something is wrong with my family, right?

However, it was rumored that Director Wei took the leave slip and went to sign it without saying a word, agreeing.

All of a sudden, rumors swirled.

…………

Tuesday, afternoon, in a big hotel in Shuntian Prefecture.

In the hotel suite, Lu Qi fidgeted back and forth.

There were still three people sitting in the room, but everyone lowered their heads, and no one dared to speak.

Liaoning Satellite TV held a regular office meeting yesterday morning, and everyone agreed that it is necessary to fight for the second round of "Legend of the White Lady". After all, a TV series that can get a rating of 7.2 on Brother TV, It has been proven to be a good drama, and in addition to the fact that it was only aired in Hunan, the ratings of its second round of airing cannot be low.

So, that afternoon, Xu Guanyi, Director of the Film Purchase Department of LIAONING Satellite TV, was ordered to set off, and before boarding the plane, he got in touch with Minghu Culture and made an appointment to visit and negotiate tomorrow morning.

However, before he went to Minghu Culture the next day, Lu Qi, the deputy director in charge of the TV drama business in the station, had already chased him with a phone call: He wants to come and take charge of this matter in person!

At first Xu Guanyi was a little confused, but after hanging up with Deputy Director Lu Qi, he called back and immediately understood: the ratings of "Legend of the New White Snake" last night were actually 7.2% than the original. On the basis of , it skyrocketed again by 133%, which directly exploded the table!

A TV series with an audience rating of 7.2 in its first broadcast is of course worthy of attention, and it is also worth fighting for its second-round broadcast rights, but a TV series that has just aired its eighth episode has scored 16.8 ratings points, ranking No. The second-ranked Huaxia TV station's set of programs, the golden TV theaters, are left behind and there is no TV series that can't be seen, so it is no longer a problem worthy of attention.

That's a question worth sacrificing your life for!

In the morning, Xu Guanyi still went to Minghu Culture at the agreed time, and also met Qi Jie, the famous strong woman of Minghu Culture, the general manager. The other party was very polite and said that they are considering the issue of arranging the sale of the second round of broadcasting rights, but the specifics of how to sell, how many companies to sell, and when to sell are still to be determined, so please stay safe from LIAONING TV. This side will be notified as soon as possible, and then the two parties will have an in-depth discussion on the detailed transaction plan.

Xu Guanyi was a little disappointed, knowing that Deputy Director Lu was on the plane, and he got nothing but a chance to participate in the competition. Obviously, it was impossible for Deputy Director Lu to be satisfied.

However, before he was invited into the general manager's office, he had already met acquaintances from the big brother TV stations who had met many times every year in the large conference room that Minghu Culture used to entertain guests. The director of the purchase department is the deputy director.

Therefore, he knew that now it was clear that there were more wolves and less meat, and that the pattern of competition had already been set. Even if he said anything else, it would be useless, so he had to politely leave and arrange a reception vehicle, and rushed to the airport to take Deputy Lu to the airport. The director and his party were picked up at the hotel. By the way, on the way, I described what I saw when I passed by in the morning, and the attitude of Minghu Culture.

And then... things became like this.

Deputy Director Lu seemed very anxious, walking around the room constantly, smoking, even drinking tea carelessly. However, if he didn't speak, none of them dared to leave, so they could only sit with him like this.

After twenty minutes, Lu Qi sighed deeply, and finally turned around and sat down.

Then, he looked up at everyone, and said: "Think about it, think about it again, is there any other way, we can't just sit like this!" After finishing speaking, he looked at Xu Guanyi and said: " Old Xu, you are a veteran of this, you have many ideas, tell me."

When Xu Guan heard this, he had to raise his head, and said: "I also introduced to you just now. In the reception room of Minghu Culture in the morning, I saw acquaintances from at least a dozen TV stations. Of course, those who have not rushed over, and may not have reacted, I can’t say if there are thirty or more, there must be more than twenty. And to see what the Minghu Culture side means, we have to wait, I guess One is to wait to see if the ratings will increase a little bit, and the other is to wait for other TV stations to react, and then pull everyone together and start selling... This is clearly to let everyone grab Broken head!"

After a pause, he continued: "Speaking of which, when Minghu Culture was looking for a few TV stations to negotiate prices for movies, they didn't come to us. Our station's position in the national TV ratings map is... not too big. forward, so I feel... I feel..."

Lu Qi was always looking at him, and when he saw that he was expecting love, he couldn't help but said: "What do you think, tell me!" After a pause, he added, "Just give advice, don't be afraid of making mistakes!"

Xu Guan nodded, and said, "I think, can we consider giving up the broadcasting rights for the second round and compete for the broadcasting rights for the third round instead?" At this point, he quickly explained, "I just think that competing for the second round In the first round, we really don't have any advantage, and it is estimated that the price will far exceed our purchase price, but it is the third round..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Qi had already shaken his head, so he subconsciously stopped.

Lu Qi took a deep breath, and said, "I know it's difficult too! But look, Hunan Satellite TV, with this show, they've made their mark in no time! I dare say that the next TV series they will take over will be all Being able to follow this drama takes a lot of light! The situation of our station is actually similar to that of Hunan. Needless to say, its influence is indeed limited. But because of this, I know that as long as this drama wins the second round, it will definitely It will be a hit, how can we miss it?"

He paused, as if to give courage to the people in the room, and he took the initiative to say: "Before boarding the plane, I talked to the director, and the director said, let me do it boldly, and go to Hunan TV station." For this step, other stations may be hesitant and dare not follow, but we are not afraid, we must take this step! The director also said that within five million, I don’t need to discuss with anyone, and I can make a decision directly Yes! Even the highest, he thinks we can accept eight million!"

Speaking of this, seeing that everyone looked up and looked surprised, he said loudly: "Eight million, everyone! It's just the second round of broadcasting rights, I don't believe we can't get it!"

The words come here, impassioned.

But at this moment, just as he finished speaking, the phone rang suddenly.

Lu Qi hurriedly picked up the phone, and when he saw the call, his face was filled with joy, and he quickly connected.

"Hey, Brother Lu, I called, but the person on the other end insisted that it was about my son-in-law, and he was an unmarried son-in-law. Besides, it is said that even their girls didn't know about the TV drama. How can he get in the conversation, he really can't help with this kind of thing."

Hearing this, the disappointment on Lu Qi's face was undisguised, and he answered with an "oh".

But soon, the other party said again: "However, after all, the friendship is here. We are almost the same as the master, old friends for many years, so in the end, he may be really embarrassed, and finally promised me that he will treat me I will call Liao Liao later to help inquire about it, but ah, he said the ugly things first, and I have to tell you the ugly things first. I must not be sure about this matter, so I can only say Just try, you, what to do, don’t count on it, okay?”

Lu Qi's eyes lit up again quickly, and he nodded again and again, "Okay, okay! No problem! Oh, brother, thank you! If it weren't for your help, I really don't know what to do! I didn't say anything, Wait to go back, I invite you!"

"Haha, easy to say!"

After a few more polite words, Lu Qi let out a long breath when he hung up the phone over there.

Facing the expectant eyes in the room, he smiled and said, "I entrusted a friend in the business world, Liao Liao's father, who has already promised to ask for help at night!"

"Ouch!"

The originally tense atmosphere in the room suddenly relaxed a lot, and Xu Guanyi let out a sigh of relief.

"Taiwan Lu, you have a solution, a way!"

Lu Qi smiled when he heard the words, and ordered: "But people said, I can't guarantee whether it will work or not! After all, you also know that although the two of you have slept in the same bed for a long time, after all, you haven't gone through the formalities yet. Isn't it? Liao Liao's father still doesn't want to instigate this uncle-to-be for the time being, so he can only call Liao Liao... Pillow wind!"

At this time everyone heard the words and laughed easily, Xu Guanyi laughed and said: "Pillow wind is always very effective!"

While speaking, Xu Guanyi thought for a while, and said, "Lv Tai, tell me, if we follow the path of Liao Liao, will the price be able to..."

Lu Qi waved his hand at that time, and said seriously: "Don't think about it! So many TV stations are vying for it, we can get the second round, and we are already very satisfied. In terms of price, it's no problem to take advantage of the price! After all That's 16.8 rating points. Do you understand what that is? Seventeen out of every one hundred TVs in the country are watching this TV series! You can imagine how hot it is , even if the second round will be distributed to several TV stations to broadcast at the same time, I estimate that each TV station can grab another 6 to 8 points! What does this mean, such a high ratings, and it is almost guaranteed, usually you go to Where can I find it? This is the influence we need most!"

After a pause, seeing everyone nodding their heads, Lu Qi relaxed slightly, and said, "Besides, it's not too ridiculous to find someone to do something and go through the back door, and to save some money, isn't it? "

After saying this, everyone laughed along with him.

At this time, Lu Qi sighed again, and said, "I was just thinking, you say, this TV series has been improving every day since it started broadcasting. Tonight, will it..."

Everyone looked at each other when they heard the words, "No way?"

Xu Guan thought for a while, and said: "I'm not sure, but... it can reach 16.8, which is amazing enough in itself, whether it can continue to go up, it is really hard to say, but Personally, I think it should be able to charge a little more?"

After a pause, he said again: "But I guess it will be about 20, and if it goes up... After so many years, even if it is Huaxia TV, there are only a few dramas that can pass 20. Now TV stations are so Many, the ratings are so hard to grab! Everyone is watching other TV dramas, how good does this have to be to grab so many people? If you can get 20, I guess it will be the top! "

Lu Qi thought for a moment, then nodded slowly.

Everyone chatted for a while, Lu Qi's cell phone rang again, and the call was connected, and he said: "The call was made, and Liao Liao said that not only she doesn't care about this matter, even Li Qian doesn't care about it, Qi Jie, their general manager, is in charge of this kind of matter, but Liao Liao has already promised to give Qi Jie a call."

This is really great news!

After answering the phone, as soon as Lu Qi told everyone the news, the room almost burst into cheers.

But only a few minutes passed, and before everyone could digest the surprise, Xu Guanyi's cell phone rang again. He picked up the cell phone and looked with surprise on his face, "It's Mr. Qi."

Lu Qi's eyes lit up when he heard the words, "Go!"

Xu Guanyi quickly connected, and then deliberately pressed the hands-free button so that Lu Qi could also hear what the other party said.

On the other end of the phone, Qi Jie didn't even wait for Xu Guanyi to say anything, and said directly: "Director Xu, right? I'm Qi Jie from Minghu Culture, that's it. Liao Liao called me just now, what do you mean?" Well, I understand that Liao Liao's hometown TV station must have some face. But, with all due respect, the competition is too fierce. To tell you the truth, I have been seeing you all day today, until now. Friends from all major TV stations, so I can only reveal one piece of news to you first. In the second round, we initially decided that there will be a total of five places. I have the right to initially screen out eight TV stations, so you will be One of these eight, but then, we have to discuss it in more detail, okay? The final decision is not in my hands."

From the beginning to the end, Qi Jie hardly left room for Xu Guanyi to interrupt, she finished what she wanted to say in one breath, and she continued: "So, consider your quotation, let's discuss it in a few days, okay? Of course, if you can find Li Qian and let him nod, maybe five million, maybe one million, as long as he agrees, then we can skip these steps directly, and we don’t even need to talk about it.”

It wasn't until this moment that Qi Jie finally stopped talking, but Xu Guanyi hadn't reacted yet. Even if Qi Jie stopped, he didn't know what to answer, so he hesitated for a while, so he could only thank him again and again.

The other side said, "You're welcome, we'll meet and discuss in detail later." Then I hung up the phone.

When the phone hung up, Xu Guanyi looked up at Lu Qi.

However, at this moment, Vice-President Lu's face was not at all happy about getting the first round of qualifications, but frowned slightly.

After a pause, he tentatively asked: "Master Lu, let's..."

Lu Qi shook his head and sighed: "It seems that Liao Liao is still willing to contribute to his hometown, but the key is that she is not at home! But how can we contact Li Qian? Even if we do, he may not see us. !"

Having said that, he couldn't help standing up again.

Xu Guanyi hesitated for a moment, and in the midst of his thoughts, he couldn't help but said: "When you say that, I suddenly remembered that we would think of going the way of Liao Liao, and other TV stations..."

Lu Qi suddenly stopped when he heard the words, and then turned around.

The two looked at each other, and instantly understood what the other meant.

You will go through the back door, but I won't?

Li Qian is from Shandong, people all over the country know this, and it is said that Qi Jie is also from Shandong!

It is said that Li Qian and several high-level people from Shuntian Satellite TV are very close friends!

Oh my god, if there are a total of five places for the second round, two of them will be divided into two!

All that's left is to choose three out of the six... And I don't know if the second round of broadcasting rights obtained in advance by Hunan will be counted among the five spots this time!

Lu Qi shook his head and whispered, "It's not safe, it's not safe!"

After a pause, he frowned, and said, "No, we must try to contact Li Qian, and we must see him! Otherwise, this matter will be a little hanging!"

After finishing speaking, he said with a serious face: "Old Xu, and you two, all relationships will be mobilized for me, old classmates, old friends, relatives, whatever, as long as you can get in touch with Li Qian, talk Get in touch with anyone who can talk, as long as there is a way, treat the guests when they should, and I will be responsible for signing the reimbursement for you! Whoever can let me meet Li Qian as soon as possible and help me get online, whoever is the first person in this matter!"

After finishing speaking, he frowned when he saw that the three people in the room hadn't moved.

After a pause, Xu Guanyi had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Lu Tai, most of my acquaintances in Shuntian Mansion are from Shuntian Satellite TV. We are in competition now, I..."

Lu Qi frowned.

But think about it, yes.

Then, he turned his attention to the other two.

One is a senior film purchase specialist, muttering and babbling, not daring to speak.

The other is Lu Qi's secretary, who came up with an idea at this time, "Director, why don't we go directly to Yangjuan Hutong to block people?"

Lu Qi was taken aback when he heard the words, and then his eyes lit up, "Where is the sheepfold alley? Where can Li Qian be blocked?"

His secretary explained: "That is Zhou Mo's home. Zhou Mo's concert tour is over, maybe she has come back, and Liao Liao is abroad again. I think he might come to accompany Zhou Mo?"

This time, Lu Qi's eyes really lit up.

But before he started to give orders, his secretary said again: "It's just that, as far as I know, Li Qian seems to be particularly disgusted with those reporters who went to the sheepfold alley to pester Zhou Mo, so if we just stare like this In the past, would he..."

Lu Qi was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and hesitated a little.

Although he doesn't pay attention to entertainment news and Li Qian like his secretary and other young people, Li Qian has become so popular in recent years. I have a little understanding of Li Qian's character.

What's more, his daughter is a die-hard fan of Li Qian.

At this time, Xu Guanyi also said: "Besides, we don't know him well. Even if we are blocked, so what? If we can't go up, we can shake hands and say that we are here to buy "Legend of the New White Snake". The right to play in turn? That would be...too embarrassing, and they might not be willing to make contact with us, maybe they will see off the guests directly!"

Lu Qi hugged his shoulders with one hand, and the thumb of the other hand gently rubbed against his nose, as if he was thinking nervously.

After more than a minute, he finally made up his mind and asked his secretary, "Do you know how to get to the Sheepfold Alley?"

The secretary was stunned for a moment, "Uh... I don't know, but I have a classmate who works as a reporter here, so he should know."

Lu Qi said directly: "Call and ask!"

After a pause, he turned his head to look at Xu Guanyi, and said seriously: "I guess other satellite TV stations should also be able to think of this idea, but they will have the same concerns as us, so they may not dare to go! Therefore, we should reflect on it even more. Do it the way it should!"

After a pause, he said: "Even if we meet by chance, we have to meet!"
