Tang Xiao fell silent, tapping his fingers on the table, obviously thinking.
There was no precedent for a TV station to collaborate with others to create a program. He really didn't know whether it would succeed or not.
If a random person had come up to him and said this to him, he would have cursed him long ago.
Who are you? Do you know about TV production?
But this person is Xiao Qian, so that's different.
Although Xiao Qian has never been involved in TV production, the problem is that the popular TV series produced by this person is out there.
Although Tang Xiao didn't know Xiao Qian's ability to produce TV programs, he at least knew one thing, that is, making programs is the same as making TV series. The most important thing is creativity.
Since Xiao Qian has the creativity to come up with such a good TV series, I heard that he is also involved in many fields such as music, animation, martial arts novels, etc. Who knows that he can't come up with good program ideas.
The most critical question now is not whether Xiao Qian has any good ideas, but whether this cooperation model is worth it.
This time Tang Xiao thought for a very long time. It took a full hour before he slowly spoke.
"If we cooperate, what do our TV stations need to do?"
He was very cautious, but Xiao Qian didn't need to. Xiao Qian had already planned it before coming.
"Your TV station needs to provide a venue and broadcast time. Of course, you can also provide camera equipment if you are willing."
Tang Xiao was in a trance for a while, he didn't expect this condition to be so broad.
"You don't need us to provide manpower?"
Xiao Qian shook his head, then nodded again.
"You can offer it or not."
He gave the choice to Tang Xiao.
The reason why this happened was that he suddenly thought that although the TV station did not have enough manpower to produce programs, it did not mean that there were no idle people. There were also many people with professional titles and salaries hanging around, with no hope of getting ahead.
Anyway, if Starlight Entertainment produces programs, it also needs to hire personnel from outside. Giving this convenience to Tang Xiao is considered a good sale.
Tang Xiao is vying for the position of director, so he must be eager to get support from the people below. If he can solve some people's work problems, his reputation will definitely be improved to a higher level.
Starlight Entertainment, on the other hand, does not have many requirements for the composition of its staff. They just have to work hard. Anyway, the control of the program is in the hands of the company, and the staff below are just part-time workers.
After hearing what Xiao Qian said, Tang Xiao rolled his eyes and figured out the key.
This made him feel satisfied, and his intention to cooperate greatly increased. He further asked: "Our TV station only needs to pay so little, so how does your company plan to make profits?"
Xiao Qian is not polite.
"Our company and your station will share the advertising in half during the broadcast period. Uncle Tang, you also know that your station has not done anything. Although it needs to share half of the advertising fees, it makes more money than other programs."
Tang Xiao nodded and had to admit that Xiao Qian was right.
According to Xiao Qian's design, the TV station is almost a business without capital. Just like a charter company, it only needs to provide the venue, and the staff dispatched are not responsible for the wages.
The less you pay, the less you gain, but overall, you do earn more.
When things got to this point, Tang Xiao's intention began to become stronger.
"Can you tell me what programs your company is planning to produce?"
Xiao Qian did not answer him directly, but asked: "Uncle Tang, do you like listening to music?"
Tang Xiao nodded immediately.
“Who doesn’t like listening to music?”
Xiao Qian took advantage of the situation and said: "I believe you have also discovered that in recent years, the number of singers has increased day by day, and new songs are coming out every day. But fans have few channels to listen to songs and get to know the singers. Those singers also suffer from the lack of publicity.
Channels have wasted many opportunities that should be used to accumulate popularity. Especially since our Starlight Entertainment is a company that builds singers, this feeling is even more obvious. So I thought about creating a singing competition program and providing it to singers for free. In this way
First, singers can promote their works through the program, and fans also have a good channel to learn about new songs and appreciate the singers' performances, what do you think?"
He had this idea when he went to South Korea before.
After watching the singing program on Korean TV, he felt that there should be such a program in China.
However, in his memory, none of the TV stations in his previous life produced this.
Strictly speaking, China's pop music industry seems to be very slow. Singer management companies and singers themselves have no stable channels to promote it, and all media have ignored such a good program format.
Of course, the actual conditions in the past life have also determined that the TV station is asking for trouble by producing such a program.
If nothing else, a piracy will result in the loss of a lot of profits.
Many singers create works without caring about the effect of the songs.
Regardless of whether it is a hit or not, the benefits of the song itself have been stolen by pirates.
What they care more about is their own popularity. If it becomes popular, they will make money by attending various events and commercial performances. The income from the song itself is really minimal.
But this life is different. China's control over piracy is so strict that it makes people's scalp numb. Without the harm of piracy, singers and management companies naturally attach great importance to the interests of the songs themselves.
Under such circumstances, of course they are eager to have a platform to promote their works. Every additional album sold is a real income.
This is Xiao Qian's confidence to start a singing program in China, and he has this realistic condition.
Sure enough, Tang Xiao's eyes lit up when he heard his plan.
Damn it, the TV station has so many talented people, why didn’t they think of this?
Should we ditch Xiao Qian and let the TV station handle it themselves?
This dangerous idea only existed for a moment before Tang Xiao was pushed to the back of his mind.
Of course he wanted to monopolize the benefits, but he felt it was not worthwhile to offend Xiao Qian for this.
After all, the little man in front of him has the ability to turn stone into gold. He gave up a mountain of gold to pick up a sesame seed. Such stupid things should not happen to a shrewd person like him.
Another thing, Xiao Qian pointed out the problem of the TV station before, and Tang Xiao also agreed with it.
No matter how big a TV station is, its energy is limited.
Firstly, there is no experience in producing similar programs, and secondly, if too many staff are mobilized, other projects will be affected.
Instead of doing this, it's better to cooperate with others.
"Listening to what you said, this program seems to be very interesting. Have you ever thought about what time period it would be better to broadcast the program?"
Xiao Qian thought everything clearly.
"At six o'clock in the afternoon on Saturday, the program lasts for one hour, just in time to seamlessly connect to the news network."
He was afraid that Tang Xiao wouldn't understand the mystery, so he explained it again.
"On Friday, most people have just finished a week's work and are in desperate need of rest. They probably don't have much energy to pay attention to the show. On Sunday, most people will definitely go crazy thinking about starting work again the next day and have no time.
Watch the show. So Saturday evening is the best."
Hearing this, Tang Xiao was extremely happy.
This program really needs to be co-operated with Xiao Qian. The TV station should do it on its own, otherwise it might be a fool's errand.
However, he always felt that Xiao Qian's thinking was not that simple.
"Do you have any deep meaning behind this?"
Xiao Qian really admires Tang Xiao's shrewdness. Although working with such a person may lead to being cheated, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
"Ours is not just a program. During each episode of recording, we will count the votes of the audience and live fans, and award awards to the person with the most votes. If this continues..."
He didn't say the next words, but Tang Xiao's body shook and he laughed extremely happily.
Obviously, this person already understands.
Today, there are no authoritative awards for popular music in China, and the field is still in a state of fragmentation.
If Shonan TV relies on a singing competition program to award awards to singers at this time, then over time, as its influence spreads, it will inevitably be recognized by more and more people.
In the end, if Hunan TV takes the opportunity to hold a pop music awards ceremony, it will definitely become an authority in the country.
In that case, the benefits would be too great.
Xiao Qian didn't bring a program to the TV station, but a gold mine.
Tang Xiao's blood boiled and he couldn't wait any longer.
"I will go back immediately to negotiate with other leaders. I believe they will agree to this plan. Please wait for my good news."
Tang Xiao left, anxious as a spark.
Xiao Qian was at ease.
He knew that the possibility of his plan passing was very high. After all, no one in the country knew how to run a singing show better than him.
What you should be thinking about now is the follow-up.
He looked at the sleepy Ning Han and smiled evilly.
"Brother Han, do you want to be a variety show director?"
