When Zhang Tan arrived at the restaurant, Wang Zhen had been waiting for a long time.
They were the only ones eating, no one else.
The two chatted for a while first, and after dinner was almost finished, Wang Zhen got down to business.
Not long after she was transferred to the Metropolis Channel as director, she was in the third stage of her new leadership. She had already established her authority, but she couldn't establish authority alone. She also had to show results to speak for herself, a big stick in one hand and sweet dates in the other. Her previous achievements in the children's channel
It doesn’t count, you have to have proven results in your new position.
The most suitable result is, of course, that the channel makes good results, and there is one right in front of us. Zhang Tan's "The Silent Truth" will be released soon, and all major platforms are currently competing for it.
The relationship between Pujiang TV Station and Pujiang Film Studio has always been very good, but business is business, and no one can guarantee it to her.
Compared with some TV stations, Pujiang TV does not have an advantage. Among the major TV stations in the country, Pujiang TV can only be regarded as the second-tier TV station and cannot be ranked in the first camp.
Moreover, what makes Wang Zhen feel even more pressure is that the relationship between the two families has always been very good, so if she does not win the broadcast rights this time, it will become a stain on her and prove that she is not good at business.
When Wang Zhen was transferred to the urban channel, "The Hidden Corner" helped her. Now she needs to gain a firm foothold, and she hopes "The Silent Truth" can help her.
"What do you want to know?" Zhang Tan asked.
He wanted to help Wang Zhen, but he thought he didn't have the power. He couldn't decide who to cooperate with for this drama. The most he could do was make suggestions, but suggestions were suggestions. Whether they would work or not ultimately depended on the conditions offered.
Pujiang Film Studio will definitely give priority to the party with better conditions.
Wang Zhen smiled and said: "I won't embarrass you, I just want to see the samples."
"??"The Silent Truth"?"
"Have it?"
Zhang Tan thought for a while and asked, "Just for a look?"
Wang Zhen smiled and said: "I really want one, but it will definitely make things difficult for you, so forget it, I just want to take a look."
Zhang Tan smiled and took out his tablet computer from his backpack, "It's just one episode right now. I just sit down after dinner, so let's watch it here."
He turned on his tablet, called up the first episode of "The Silent Truth", and handed it to Wang Zhen.
Wang Zhen said thank you and explained while watching the drama: "Of course I have confidence in your work, but I don't know it until I see it. I know it will definitely be broadcast on the day of the bidding, but I need to understand first, okay
Request resources from the company in advance so that you can have more cards when bidding."
"I understand, just take a look."
Zhang Tan took out his mobile phone and Wang Zhen was watching a drama with headphones on. He sat aside and played with his mobile phone. Suddenly he felt something strange on his shoulder. He looked sideways and was startled. Wang Zhen tilted her head and rested her head on his shoulder.
When he gave her the tablet just now, he sat over from the opposite side.
Wang Zhen's eyes were still watching the show, but what she said was: "Come on, don't you mind?"
Zhang Tan secretly smiled bitterly and said with a smile: "I'll lend it to you first."
Wang Zhen muttered something vaguely, and sounded a little dissatisfied.
Two days later, a cooperation meeting for "The Silent Truth" was held at Pujiang Film Studio. The attendees were all relevant persons in charge of major TV stations and video websites.
At the studio, deputy director Tang Hao was presiding over the negotiation meeting. Zhang Tan and Sheng Xiaoxiao also participated. As for Liu Jinlu, he was still filming on the crew and did not come over.
Before the negotiation meeting started, many people greeted Zhang Tan. No one who came to the meeting knew about Zhang Tan. On the contrary, the producer Sheng Xiaoxiao did not receive much attention.
However, Sheng Xiaoxiao watched it with open eyes and was not dissatisfied at all, because she knew that the core of this drama was not her, nor even Liu Jinlu, but Zhang Tan. Zhang Tan was not only the screenwriter, but also set the standards for many films.
She and Liu Jinlu agreed to implement it together, just as Zhang Tan proposed the "five dos and five don'ts" principle on the TV station.
The first part of the negotiation meeting was watching movies. First, a ten-minute TV series clip was broadcast, and then the first episode of "The Silent Truth" was broadcast.
After that, the price is negotiated with each other and the partner is determined. It is a bit like an auction venue. The party with better conditions wins.
Zhang Tan watched the whole process, and the final winners were Pujiang TV Station and a video website.
Wang Zhen breathed a deep sigh of relief. She had been tense just now. She didn't dare to relax until the last moment was finalized. She was worried that other TV stations would offer higher prices.
After it was over, she complained to Zhang Tan that the studios were getting better and better at playing, and it was too exciting. They directly let them and the TV stations fight each other, and it was bloody. It was really cruel. This was not the way it was done before.
In the past, studios and TV stations negotiated one by one. The TV stations did not know the price they offered, which was equivalent to a sealed bid in the bidding. But now it is an open bidding, and everyone immediately knows what conditions the opponent has offered.
We know that some opponents are chasing each other to bid for the target.
"It's always a good thing. I didn't expect you to offer such conditions." Zhang Tan said.
"Then I have to thank you. You gave me the confidence, but I thought I would not be pushed to the last step. Mango TV was willing to spend a lot of money and almost lost to them." Wang Zhen said with lingering fear.
Apparently the person in charge of Mango TV Station thought the same way. He was a middle-aged man who went out of his way to get to know each other and exchange business cards with Wang Zhen.
"Pujiang TV Station and the studio are indeed brotherly units. We dare not offer such conditions and cannot offer them. I wish you great success in ratings." The other party said. The implication was that he did not believe that the TV station could still make money with such conditions.
Don't just make a living.
Wang Zhen was not to be outdone: "Thank you, we TV people all know a point of view. The core of ratings is the work. As long as the work is good, everything else can work. You might as well pay more attention to our station during this time, maybe there will be unexpected gains.
.”
"We'll see." The other party said and left.
Zhang Tan asked Wang Zhen what the unexpected gain was. Wang Zhen said, "I don't know either. It's just a bluff."
Zhang Tan couldn't help but smile.
Wang Zhen glanced at him: "Can I let my defeated general show off his innuendo in front of me?"
Zhang Tan smiled and said, "You're right."
Wang Zhen: "Let's go. Please treat me to dinner when you have time in a few days. I feel so sad that you made a lot of money out of me."
"It's not like I earned it..."
"Then I don't care."
Zhang Tan also left the company and came to the crew. Su Lan was taking a rest. When she saw him coming back, she immediately asked about the bidding situation.
"Pujiang TV and Penguin Video Network won."
When Su Lan heard about Pujiang TV station, her eyes flashed.
Zhang Tan suddenly whispered: "Come to my house for dinner tonight, and I will make you the chrysanthemum herring you like."
Su Lan couldn't help but puff out her mouth, let out a soft oh, and smiled.
The two left the set separately in the evening, Zhang Tan left first, and it took five minutes for Su Lan and Yang Zhu to follow.
"I'm back." Lao Li greeted, "It's so early today. Oh, I even bought vegetables. It's such a big fish."
"Haha, let's make dinner, Su Su will be here later."
"No wonder."
“Boss Zhang, your fish is so big~~~~~”
Suddenly, a gust of wind came from behind, surpassed him, and ran into the classroom.
"Run slowly, Liuliu, don't fall!"
“…%%￥##&”
Another kid ran over and lifted up his pants.
"Uh-huh?"
Zhang Tan originally thought the one at the back was Xi'er, but it didn't look like it from the back. He was smaller than Xi'er.
"Who ran over just now?" Zhang Tan asked Lao Li.
Lao Li said with a smile: "That's Dudu who can't talk."
"Dudu? Who is it?"
"She is Zhao Gongcheng's daughter, the little one who can't speak yet."
"oh!"
Zhang Tan suddenly realized that she was the little sister who had just entered the kindergarten. She had just turned 3 years old and could not speak yet.
It was her who just ran over, and she seemed to have become involved with Liliu. I didn't expect her to be so lively.
Zhang Tan soon saw Dudu's liveliness with his own eyes. When he came down to pick up Su Lan, he happened to see Dudu standing in front of Lao Li, babbling and gesticulating in a very intense manner, but no one understood a word of it.
"What is she saying?"
Zhang Tan curiously asked Liuliu, who was watching the show on the sidelines. A little guy who couldn't speak clearly was actually arguing with Lao Li about what he was arguing about.
Liuliu: "666, Dudu 666, she is asking Li Baobao to return the ball."
Only then did Zhang Tan notice that Lao Li had picked up a ball and the obvious mark of the ball on his chest.
