After the clouds dispersed and the rain stopped, Wei Yang sat back on the bed, took out a box of Marlboros from the bedside table, took out one and lit it.
He doesn't usually like to smoke, but he can't avoid it at this time.
Fan Xiaopang, who was dripping with sweat, sat up and reached out to him. Wei Yang was stunned and handed her the cigarette and lighter.
The latter didn't ask for it. He reached out and took out the lit cigarette from his mouth, smoked it twice, then put it back into Wei Yang's mouth, smoothed the messy hair on his forehead, and looked at Wei Yang with charming eyes.
Positive.
"I didn't expect it. I usually look very polite, but at critical moments, I'm not ambiguous at all."
Wei Yang blew out the smoke ring and stretched out his hand to rub her body: "You are not bad, Run~"
"Pooh!"
Fan Xiaopang swatted away his rebellious hand and asked seriously: "Let's get down to business, I never asked carefully before, is there any way to sell "My Love from the Star"?"
"Is there anyone who is naked and talking about business?"
Wei Yang couldn't help but complain and continued to be dishonest, but he didn't forget to answer her.
"The three companies that are most concerned about now are Hunan Province, Zhejiang Province and Magic City. Hunan Province wants to broadcast exclusively, while Zhejiang Province and Magic City are ready to cooperate with two network broadcasters. The price is still being negotiated, and there is not much difference."
"How many?"
Fan Xiaopang is still very concerned about money. He hasn't confirmed it yet, and Wei Yang doesn't dare to confirm it, so he can only express it.
"No matter what, I still have to pay 1.5 million per episode."
In the current TV drama market, one million for a single episode is a big threshold, and every additional 100,000 is another threshold.
Among the TV series from the same period, "New Dream of Red Mansions" is the most expensive, with a single episode selling for 2 million yuan, setting a new record for domestic dramas, followed by "New Three Kingdoms" with a package price of 160 million yuan, a total of 95 episodes, and a total single episode of nearly 1.7 million yuan.
.
Of course, the main reason for "New Three Kingdoms" is that there are too many episodes, and it is too expensive to buy based on the number of episodes. Otherwise, the price will not be inferior to "New Dream of Red Mansions".
No matter what the reputation of these two dramas is in the future, before they were broadcast, they were serious national IPs + large-scale productions + directed by famous directors. It is normal for them to be expensive. "My Love from the Star" cannot compare with them.
But it can't compare with "New Three Kingdoms" and "New Dream of Red Mansions", and it can compete with the dead girl's "Beauty's Scheming".
Rumor has it that this drama sold 1.4 million episodes, laying the foundation for Dead Girl to become one of the top TV writers and producers in the country.
"You Who Came from the Stars" has a better lineup, is more popular, and the investment is not bad. Wei Yang is also confident that it will sell better.
"1.5 million for one episode, 30 episodes is 45 million, I can divide... 9 million."
Fan Xiaopang counted on her fingers, her eyes getting brighter and brighter. This price had already allowed her to make a small profit, not to mention that this was only the first-run broadcast rights, and the other miscellaneous profits added up were not a small amount.
"Do you still think I prostituted you for nothing this time?"
Wei Yang patted Fan Xiaopang on the butt. At first, he was willing to pay for the share with nothing, but now that the money was about to be divided, he still felt a little hurt.
It was a joke that Fan Xiaopang offered 1 million, but to some extent, his shot really cost several million, maybe even more...
"Thank you, Boss Wei, for helping me make a fortune."
Fan Xiaopang now finds Wei Yang particularly pleasing to his eye. He is a good and handsome man and can make money with him. He is simply a lucky star.
"When you thank others, just use your words."
"When others use their mouths, yours will also move their mouths."
Fan Xiaopang glanced at him charmingly and suddenly leaned down. Wei Yang couldn't help but tense up.
This vixen is so good!
…
After breakfast, Wei Yang turned on his computer and browsed the news. As expected, reports related to the finalization of "My Love from the Star" were massacred yesterday, which also aroused widespread discussion among netizens.
[Wei Yang’s new drama written and performed by himself, I’m looking forward to it]
[Why did you find Fan? She is the most annoyed?]
[She is beautiful. I have to say that Wei Yang is a great screenwriter and has a first-rate sense of casting. The heroines in several dramas are all beauties, and even Zhao Ji is a classy person.]
[Let reporters act as extras directly. This operation is too cool. Is it to save money?]
【The truth is out】
[Fan’s look is so pretty, I’m obsessed]
[If nothing else, this face is really no match for ordinary female celebrities]
[Ah ah ah, the kiss scene is so exciting, I love it]
[Handsome men and beautiful women, this drama must be watched]
[Sister-brother love, Fan wants the old cow to eat young grass]
[I like this pair, the girl is beautiful and charming, the guy is refreshing and restrained, they match well]
[Why did Wei Yang create a scandal in one movie while filming another, it looks a bit fancy]
[Bah, you big radish, take away my family to give alms]
[Kill the Wei dog and grab the alms]
[Hurry and leave, Geng Geng Xinghe is the most worthy one]
【……】
The popularity was still good. Wei Yang took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to the relevant person in charge of Blue Whale, asking them to follow up and expand the impact.
"My Love from the Star" still has a lot of budget. Leaving aside the post-production special effects, publicity and distribution also account for a large proportion. Wei Yang is trying every means to increase the budget of the TV series.
Even if the price of the first-run broadcast rights is difficult to increase significantly, prices for second- and third-run online broadcast rights, DVD copyrights, post-roll advertising, peripheral copyrights, and even overseas exports can all be negotiated and speculated on.
Heat doesn't hurt.
While he was busy working, Fan Xiaopang also woke up. These ladies were so bold and unrestrained. They even ran into the living room and shouted for dinner without even wearing underwear.
"It's left in the pot, just heat it up."
"Do it yourself, I'm busy working."
"Hey, you don't recognize anyone with your pants on."
When Fan Xiaopang got angry, she sat next to Wei Yang and made trouble. Wei Yang was forced to heat up food for her and sit at the dining table with her before she calmed down.
"The craftsmanship is good. Well, this radish is very delicious and chewy. Where can I buy it?"
"My mother dried it, and there's only one or two pounds left. Don't think about it."
"mean."
Fan Xiaopang curled his lips and Wei Yang fiddled with his phone. At this moment, the phone rang and Wei Yang answered it.
"Tangtang, I'm at home. It's okay. That's fine. I won't send you off... Uh-huh... cough. I'll reply to the letter in the capital."
Wei Yang grabbed Fan Xiaopang's feet that stretched out from under the table, and his tone was a bit unnatural. Tang Yan, who was already thinking of Pian Pian on the other end of the phone, misunderstood even more and hung up the phone in a panic.
"You go ahead and do your work first. We'll talk later."
Putting down the phone, Wei Yang looked at Fan Xiaopang helplessly: "Sister, please don't hurt me."
Although some super-friendship things have happened, Wei Yang has no idea of being responsible for Fan Xiaopang.
This guy is too ambitious and he can't control it!
Therefore, Wei Yang's definition of last night was very clear. As adults, occasionally have a friendly discussion and release the pressure, but afterwards it will be a mess and don't disturb each other's normal life.
He believed that Fan Xiaopang had the same idea. This kind of situation was quite common in the circle, and it was just a casual romance.
There is a tacit understanding of this kind of thing, and there is no need to point it out at all, but just now Fan Xiaopang went a little too far. Fortunately for Tang Yan, she could find an excuse to cover it up. If it were Liu Shishi and Xiao Zhao, he would have said
Not sure anymore.
"Just kidding, don't you think it's quite exciting?"
Fan Xiaopang blinked, took his foot out of Wei Yang's hand, and then gently stroked the changed areas, Wei Yang sighed.
"Have you finished eating?"
"What for?"
"Put out the fire."
"Didn't you say that one is gone?"
"I'll do it outside."
"..."
…
Fan Xiaopang left quietly at night. After she left, Wei Yang did a thorough cleaning of the rental house from the inside out to remove any traces of damage.
Early the next morning, Wei Yang went to Blue Whale Company. With the last team building completed, the atmosphere in the company was quite lively and harmonious. When he saw Wei Yang, he said "Hello, Mr. Wei" and "Hello boss" kept saying hello.
"So this kind of team building should still be held regularly to improve morale and cohesion."
Wei Yang once again appreciated the excellence of the corporate culture left by Lao Zheng. He returned to his office and convened a meeting with several responsible persons.
At present, the company's main task is still to focus on "My Love from the Star", with one side in charge of promotion and the other side in post-production.
In addition, a small team was formed, led by Lei Chun, the director of the artist management department, and began to consider Wei Yang's work arrangements.
After being shortlisted for the Big Four and the hit "Twinkle Twinkle Star", Wei Yang's fame has skyrocketed. Although he is not yet considered an A-list actor, he is quite popular.
The most important thing is that Wei Yang's popularity not only comes from the TV series and his face, his talent is also the focus of many people's hot discussions.
In this era that has not completely reduced to just looking at faces, fans and fans attracted by talent and connotation have to be even more crazy and die-hard.
Even in an era when traffic is booming, there are still chains of contempt in the fandom.
A frivolous embroidered pillow can never be compared to a talented person, and a talented person can't compare to a creative genius who relies on his talent to make a living.
There is no need to consider whether he is the boss of a company or not. Wei Yang's reputation as a "talented man" directly distances him from other male stars who are simply filming.
And such artists are welcomed by fans and media, and naturally they are also sought after by the market.
"The sales of the published books "The Best of Us" and "Undocumented Crime" have soared. There are already seven or eight publishing houses or companies that want to talk to you about the drama adaptation of "Twinkle Twinkle Star" as a novel."
"Now the company's scripts are no longer available for delivery, but many people still come to ask for prices. The highest price has been 120,000 for an episode."
"By the way, you were also shortlisted for Best Lyricist, Composer and Best Newcomer on the Chinese Music Chart."
"Currently, four satellite TV variety shows have officially sent you invitations, and there are probably nearly ten companies sent to contact you."
"A music company wants to contact you and expresses its hope to collaborate with you on an album or single."
"There are also two commercial endorsements and activities, and the price and treatment are quite appropriate."
"..."
Wei Yang was busy filming these days and didn't worry about other things at all. Today he finally had some free time and wanted to sort out the backlog of announcements, but he found that it was all work and he felt tired just listening to it.
"I don't have time to write a book. If the publisher of the drama adaptation novel is really interested, let Ma Jin come on board."
"The script is not for sale. If you really want to cooperate, you can ask them to send a letter of intent and we will see how it goes."
"I'll pick the variety shows and awards later. If it's suitable, forget about singles. If I don't have time, just do some endorsements. There's no rush."
Wei Yang has confidence in "My Love from the Star", so talking about endorsements at this time will definitely be a disadvantage, and since the price has been set, it will not be easy to increase.
On the contrary, it is better to endure it and wait for "My Love from the Star" to be broadcast to increase its popularity and then negotiate a big contract...
