What should I do if I have a childhood sweetheart who wants to be a singer? Chapter 378: The starting price is 300 million, Chi Jiang, who has no martial ethics
Chapter 378: The starting price is 300 million, Chi Jiang, who has no martial ethics
At station g, Chi Jiang naturally learned the news about Song Ideal’s new drama as soon as possible.
Of course Song Ideal is not the key. Although the other party is a super first-line director, it is not something that Chi Jiang himself can take seriously.
The most important thing is that the screenwriter of this new drama is Xu Ji.
Like the original "My Leader, My Team", it is a joint project between Song Lili's company and Xu Ji's company.
As for matters involving Xu Ji, in the g-station film and television department, they are of course of the highest importance.
Chi Jiang even directly rejected several drama producers who were originally planning to negotiate for copyright, and flew directly to the capital with his assistant.
The current G station also has not picked up the new drama "Ghost Blowing the Lamp."
Of course Chi Jiang is determined to win the copyright this time.
"Director Song, people from the three major video platforms and G station are all here."
"Are you sure it's okay to put them in the same hotel?"
In Song Lili's company office in Beijing, his usual crew counselor asked worriedly.
"There shouldn't be a fight, right?"
"They are all well-known people in the industry."
"It'll be fine if we don't fight."
Song Lili felt very comfortable at this moment.
Although he had already experienced this feeling when he was discussing copyright in "My Leader, My Group."
But if I do it again, I still enjoy it.
Mainly because in his previous career as a director, there was basically no situation where the platform took the initiative to negotiate copyright.
Whether it is an online video platform or a traditional TV station.
The dramas produced by Song Lili and his company are not very popular.
Even if I finally bought the copyright, the other party still looked like I had suffered a big loss.
Even if the price of copyright has been pushed to an absurdly low level, this is still the case.
Song Lili naturally felt quite aggrieved by such a situation.
That’s why I’m so happy at this time.
"The boss at Kiwi Fruit seems to have a lot of dissatisfaction with us."
"We have complained to us several times."
Song Lili was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then asked: "You didn't let it slip, did you?"
"We spread the news."
The assistant director shook his head.
"This is definitely not possible."
"I scolded him too."
Hearing this, Song Lili also laughed.
"Let her scold her, there is no evidence anyway."
"Kiwi really thinks that a few cooperations can buy me off?"
"I can be considered a top-tier director after all, okay?"
Song Lili was very energetic when he spoke.
But he actually knows that if it weren't for being able to cooperate with Xu Ji, he would probably be happy for a long time in the face of such conditions.
Now I can only say that things are indeed different from the past.
As long as he can maintain his cooperation with Tongji Entertainment, it is basically impossible for him to return to the previous situation where the company was on the verge of bankruptcy.
The next day, in the small review room of Song Lili Company, representatives from the three major video websites, Bi Feihong, Cong Zhu, and Su Liangcai, all arrived.
The last person to come was Chi Jiang, the president of g station’s film and television department.
Of course, several of them are also old friends.
I saw this place once last time.
I have seen them on various occasions before.
As for the relationship, as competitors, of course they won't be harmonious.
As soon as Chi Jiang arrived, Su Liangcai from Tudou Video said half-jokingly and half-seriously:
"Mr. Chi, are you not going to give us a way to survive?"
"Your G station has cooperated with Director Xu so many times, why can't you just give me a chance like this?"
Chi Jiang replied with a smile:
"We have worked with Director Xu many times, but isn't this the first time we have worked with Director Song?"
"Actually, we mainly come to Director Song for good things."
"Director Song is such an excellent director, we at G Station have always wanted to cooperate with him."
After hearing Chi Jiang's words, the other three people present showed disdain.
Everyone knows why this drama has such appeal.
The biggest reason is that Xu Ji is the screenwriter and producer of the show.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for a few people to treat Song Ideal with such caution, and even go all the way to make a special trip.
Then they saw Chi Jiang coming in behind him, and Song Lili, who had been blocked just now.
"Despicable!"
The three of them immediately cursed secretly in their hearts.
Obviously, what Chi Jiang said just now was not meant for Su Liangcai or the other two people at all.
Rather, it was for Song Lili who was following behind.
With this secret poke, he was one step ahead of everyone else and silently flattered Song Lili.
Of course, at this time, Su Liangcai's expression changed slightly, and then he responded quickly and said:
"Aren't you talking nonsense?"
"Of course we are all here for Director Song."
Cong Zhu and Bi Feihong also responded one after another.
Song Lili listened to all the conversations between several people.
But it’s not a big feeling.
In fact, he has a very clear self-awareness, and he knows why a few people came to attend the movie screening so actively.
A large part of the reason is because of Xu Ji's script.
Of course, it's also because in his heart, Xu Ji is really awesome. He must be better than him anyway, and he is one of the few directors that he can be convinced of.
So I won’t be too angry when I hear such words.
"Welcome all the bosses to come all the way to Beijing."
"Please bear with me if the reception is not good enough."
"I won't talk nonsense, let's get started."
After Song Lili exchanged a few casual greetings, he did not intend to waste time and directly started the preview of the drama "Bright Sword."
Of course the four people at the scene wanted this.
This is the purpose of their coming here.
I don’t want to waste time and energy elsewhere.
As the lights in the review room slowly dimmed, Hongda's opening music played.
At this time, the four of them finally saw the true appearance of the show.
What surprised a few people was that this drama turned out to be an anti-Japanese drama?
Although I had guessed that it was a war theme, what I didn't expect was that it actually turned out to be like this.
After all, if it were to be a drama with the same style as "My Captain, My Troupe", it wouldn't be quite like Xu Ji's style.
Xu Ji is a well-known screenwriter who never rests on his laurels in every drama.
Each drama has corresponding innovations, and many times, the same theme is not even repeated.
Unless it’s a series like Sword and Sword.
With the two characters "Bright Sword" appearing in the play.
With the names of director Song Lili and screenwriter Xu Ji flashing across the screen, the first episode of this drama has finally officially begun.
As the plot progressed, Chi Jiang also realized that although this was also a war drama, it was also about anti-Japanese war.
But it is completely different from the previous "My Leader, My Group."
What is different from the drama "Tuanzhang" is that the clues and rhythm of "Bright Sword" are much faster.
Moreover, the main scenes in it are still focused on the protagonist Li Yunlong.
The character of the protagonist Li Yunlong is completely different from some previous dramas.
Although he talks and behaves like a big boss, he also appears to be uneducated, and he even blatantly disobeyed his superiors’ orders in the first episode.
But on the other hand, Li Yunlong has just appeared on the stage, and the bold and heroic spirit in his body cannot be stopped.
Moreover, he also showed very outstanding military ability, and he was not at all shy in fighting.
In addition to Chi Jiang, Cong Zhu and others were also watching the drama seriously at this time.
Of course, except for one person, Bi Feihong.
He originally remembered what Xu Sheng said to him.
But I don’t know why, but just after watching it for a few minutes, I suddenly felt sleepy.
After struggling for more than ten minutes, I finally fell asleep on my small sofa.
In fact, Xu Sheng is not a very sleepy person, but he has the skill to fall asleep quickly when watching movies or dramas.
It is indeed quite strange.
It is also estimated to be the envy of many people with insomnia.
After all, if you can’t sleep, you just pick up your phone and open a movie, and your worries will be solved in an instant.
More than an hour has passed, and now they have seen the content of the third episode.
Congzhu has already made his most basic judgment at this time.
That is, this drama, compared to the previous "My Captain, My Troupe," is likely to be more able to attract ordinary audiences.
Although they are all dramas with anti-Japanese themes, and although the drama of the director is also very good, Congzhu has to admit it.
The pace is indeed too slow, and you need to be immersed in following the plot.
But this time, the plot of "Bright Sword" is very compact and exciting, and the various war scenes can quickly arouse the audience's interest.
What's more important is that the protagonist Li Yunlong in it, you said, is different from some traditional protagonists, and has such obvious shortcomings.
But Cong Zhu is very keenly aware that after the show is aired, protagonists like Li Yunlong will be more likely to be liked by the audience.
Although this drama and the original "Leader" are both anti-Japanese dramas, the core content of the entire drama is different.
The only thing that is the same is that the plot is still so exciting, and the story inside does not make people look dramatic or exaggerated.
The reason why anti-Japanese dramas have such a bad reputation now is also because there are a lot of plots that seem to be not very realistic.
The war, which was originally very difficult, looks very simple and ordinary in these dramas.
It was the appearance of the drama "The Head" that brought back the reputation of anti-Japanese dramas.
But a drama like Team Leader is obviously not something that can be made by just following the trend.
And although the group leader is popular, he is not a hit.
Congzhu has already thought that once "Bright Sword" is aired this time, it will probably set off a trend of anti-Japanese dramas.
This seems to have become an iconic feature of Xu Ji’s drama.
That means there will be a bunch of people following the trend every time.
Although the viewing party is not over yet, Congzhu has already firmed up his mind and will definitely win this drama.
Originally, she had no doubts about Xu Ji's ability, but now that she has seen the finished film, she has no need to hesitate at all.
Thinking of this, Cong Zhu hesitated for a moment, then turned his head and looked in the direction of Chi Jiang.
Chi Jiang is currently staring at the big screen seriously.
But he soon seemed to notice the eyes staring at him, and then he turned his head and looked at Congzhu.
Both of them saw determination in each other's eyes.
Everyone is not a fool, but Congzhu doesn’t think he is the only one who sees the potential of this drama.
In addition to this love, Su Liangcai, the vice president of Tudou Video, also has the same love.
He exchanged glances with the two of them indifferently. If it hadn't started yet, they would have all started making crazy bids by now.
As for Bi Feihong of Penguin Video, he was still sleeping soundly at this time, without any sign of waking up.
In fact, Song Lili was also present. He still remembered that the last time he watched the group leader, Bi Feihong, the representative of Penguin Video, fell asleep after watching it for two minutes.
At that time, he didn't think much about it. After all, it was difficult to say it openly.
But this time, the other party still fell asleep so quickly.
It's like using this show as a hypnosis video.
This made Song Lili very dissatisfied.
If the original leader had some reasons, after all, the pace was a bit slow, and it can be expected that some viewers were not interested.
But this time, the sword was fired, and there was a lot of gunfire inside, but you were sleeping so soundly.
Are the dramas I film that boring?
Song Lili even had some doubts at this time whether Bi Feihong from Penguin Video came here intentionally to disgust him.
Otherwise, how could it happen twice?
If it were before, Song Lili might have swallowed his anger in the face of a wealthy benefactor like Penguin Video, but now, Song Lili doesn't want to spoil him anymore.
Although the final copyright quotation has not officially started yet.
But in his case, Penguin Video has been directly deleted.
Even if their final bid was the highest, Song Lili would still not choose to cooperate with them!
After a while, the third episode of "Bright Sword" is finally over.
The lights in the review room slowly turned on.
Bi Feihong, who was asleep, rubbed his eyes and woke up.
"Is it over?"
He asked subconsciously.
But he found that no one answered his words.
"Director Song, let me put it bluntly, our G site has been cooperating with Director Xu for such a long time."
"It is indeed the most suitable choice for this drama to be broadcast on our G station."
"We can offer a copyright fee of 300 million."
Chi Jiang took the lead and immediately came up with an offer of 300 million.
Several people present were shocked.
Especially Bi Feihong who just woke up.
It felt like I was still half asleep and half awake, and I thought I heard it wrong.
The same is true for Congzhu and Su Liangcai. I would have thought that everyone would normally raise the copyright fees bit by bit.
Although 300 million is considered an expected price, Chi Jiang's decision to charge such a high copyright fee is indeed a bit ungrateful.
If station G were still in the same situation as before, it would be absolutely impossible for Chi Jiang to give such a quotation.
But things are different now. Not long ago, the two hit dramas "The Legend of the Withered Heroes" and "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" made Station G a lot of money.
At this time, Chi Jiang exuded a confident temperament.
It seems to be saying: "Our G site is not short of money!"
