Bao Lixin's ability to stir up news is not as good as Yuan Fenghui's, but his method of painting the pie is the same as Yuan Fenghui's.
What a coincidence, Yuan Fenghui said the same thing to Wen Ying!
The difference is that while Bao Lixin is painting a pie, Yuan Fenghui is serious about it.
Wen Ying refused to appear in an advertisement. As Yuan Fenghui expected, Yuan Fenghui accepted two blog promotions for Wen Ying in one go. It’s not that Yuan Fenghui is not capable enough to receive more, it’s because these two brands are currently the most suitable.
.
Yuan Fenghui wanted to see the effect of the promotion.
If the effect is very good, the price of 500,000 per piece is a bit low!
Bao Lixin’s commitment to Blue Whale is purely pie-in-the-sky.
The first printing of "Crown of Thorns" was 600,000 copies, and the film and television adaptation rights were sold to Mr. Guan. It is said that even if Blue Whale is not as rich as Wen Ying, she is definitely a little rich woman.
What's wrong with being scolded a few times when your wallet is full?
The fact is that Blue Whale has only received an advance payment of 100,000 royalties from the publisher.
100,000 yuan is a lot for an ordinary college student, but for Blue Whale, this amount of money is not enough to allow her to face all the abuse calmly - she previously won the second prize in the long form category of the essay competition, and "Gentle She" went smoothly
It was published, and the royalties received from the first printing of only 50,000 copies were more than 100,000 yuan!
Later, another 100,000 copies of "Gentle She" were printed, and Blue Whale had a small amount of savings.
After Bao Lixin changed jobs, Bao Lixin did not deliberately lower Blue Whale's royalty rate. "Crown of Thorns" was still signed at a 12% royalty rate.
But this is just a publishing contract on paper.
As the saying goes, if you don't have any profit, you won't get early. Bao Lixin works so hard to promote Blue Whale, so naturally he is not just trying to win a breath.
Privately, Bao Lixin and Blue Whale also signed an agency contract. Bao Lixin had to take 60% of all Blue Whale's income.
Blue Whale earns 1 million, of which 600,000 has to be given to Bao Lixin. For Bao Lixin, Blue Whale is a real cash cow, and he will not allow Blue Whale to retreat midway!
And in order to better control Blue Whale, Bao Lixin used his usual tactics, even holding back the 40% of the income that Blue Whale deserved, for fear that Blue Whale would be disobedient after receiving too much money.
After some coaxing and frightening, Bao Lixin temporarily stabilized the blue whale.
The blue whale slowly stopped crying and sobbed: "I listen to you."
"You are very sensible, which is one of the reasons why I value you. Mr. Guan is working on the project of "Crown of Thorns". Once the TV series is aired, you will be an undisputed star writer."
Bao Lixin was full of confidence and continued to bewitch the blue whale.
On the other hand, Mr. Guan did not go smoothly when establishing the project.
Mr. Guan was so shameless that he directly compared "Crown of Thorns" to "Galaxy and You", saying that these are two IPs of the same level.
How can the leaders of the TV station have time to read books? After the internal evaluation is passed and the leaders sign, the project can be approved.
At this time, Director Fan stepped forward to make trouble for Mr. Guan. Director Fan did not say that "Crown of Thorns" plagiarized "Galaxy and You", he only mentioned the data performance of the two books.
The first printing of 600,000 copies does not mean that 600,000 copies were actually sold. These are two different concepts!
Is it true that IPs of the same level should be compared by showing the data instead of just talking about it?
"I heard that "Galaxy and You" sold 660,000 copies within three months of its release."
Director Fan's attitude was kind, not as if he was deliberately targeting anyone, but just from a fair standpoint: "The first printing of "Crown of Thorns" was 600,000 copies. How many copies have been sold now?"
Mr. Guan was very calm, "The publisher is still calculating the specific data. It will not be worse than "Galaxy and You"."
Director Fan sneered secretly.
Wouldn't it be worse than "Galaxy and You"?
"Crown of Thorns" has been criticized so much on the Internet. Does Guan think that everyone is an old antique who doesn't know how to surf the Internet?
Director Fan pretended to be an old antique and said with a smile: "Don't worry, we will wait until the publishing house compiles the statistics and then discuss the project establishment."
Of course the manager is not willing.
Businessmen are looking for profits. Mr. Guan bought the copyright of "Crown of Thorns" and wants to start filming quickly to make money.
Furthermore, Mr. Guan knew that Tianjiao had not filmed an idol drama recently and only had one main drama to sell. Mr. Guan also wanted to make a time difference - he had not won against Tianjiao twice. Mr. Guan was a little scared and did not want to compete with Tianjiao again.
Tianjiao has crashed.
The project has been approved now, and after one or two months of preparation, the shooting will start. It will not be in time for this year’s summer vacation, but it will be in time for the winter vacation.
Mr. Guan had planned everything, but Director Fan overturned all his arrangements with one sentence, and Mr. Guan looked unhappy.
Director Fan thinks he can control himself in this way?
If you want the sales data of "Crown of Thorns", the worst thing you can do is ask Chief Editor Bao to issue one. Let's see what other nonsense Director Fan has to say!
This is to promote the film and television incubation of "Crown of Thorns" as soon as possible, and Mr. Guan believes that Bao Lixin will cooperate.
Because of "Crown of Thorns", Mr. Guan and Bao Lixin have become a community of interests. Mr. Guan wants to make money by filming a drama, while Bao Lixin wants to make money by selling books, and he also wants to take the opportunity to turn Blue Whale into a star writer.
Director Fan saw through Mr. Guan's thoughts and directly blocked Mr. Guan's path: "Actually, I don't want to embarrass anyone. Of course I have to consider it for Taili when I receive my salary from Taili. Outsiders only see that our Tai family has a great cause, not
You know how difficult it is to run such a big stall. You are half of us. If outsiders don’t understand, don’t you understand too?”
Mr. Guan said that he understood very well. It was not easy to follow Director Fan's words and talk about the difficulties on the stage. The hardest part was the leaders. There were so many mouths crying for support. It was all because of the wise decisions of the leaders that everyone in the TV station could live a comfortable life.
Director Fan nodded fiercely: "Let me just say, you know best. Since we are not outsiders, can you also reduce the burden on Taiwan? You compare "Crown of Thorns" to "Galaxy and You", I believe you
Judgment. I heard that the production cost of "Galaxy and You" was 40 to 50 million. It was too stressful for Taili to shell out such a large amount of money in one go. Why not make a small symbolic investment from Taili, and "Crown of Thorns" would be considered Taiwanese
The drama co-produced with your company... Mr. Guan is so optimistic about "Crown of Thorns", there is no reason why this drama will lose money. When your company produces "Crown of Thorns", I will definitely give you the best schedule!"
Guan always wanted Hunan Satellite TV to pay for the entire filming cost of "Crown of Thorns".
The TV station pays for the filming, and then sells the copyright to the TV station after the filming is completed. Guan always uses the TV station's money to make money, and he does not have to bear any risks.
Director Fan put it lightly, saying "I'm not an outsider" would make Mr. Guan bear the bulk of the shooting costs.
Even if Mr. Guan reduces the cost of "Crown of Thorns" to be lower than that of "Galaxy and You," it will cost at least 20 to 30 million to produce the same effect as "Galaxy and You."
It is too risky to ask the management company to bear the 20 million filming cost.
Manager Guan opened his mouth to refuse, but Director Fan gave him a reassurance: "The one with the best schedule will be given, and the copyright fee will not be low. We can sign the contract first."
Mr. Guan's heart moved.
Sign the contract first?
If you auction it, you will definitely be able to sell it, which actually reduces the risk.
