When Li Yi saw Qiu Haifeng hang up the phone, he muttered: "What did you do? I just asked if there are many beauties in Korea. What's more?"
Because the hospital was crowded, Li Yi asked Liu Hong to pay with his card.
After paying the surgery fee, he will pay the subsequent treatment fee directly to Song Yingying's account, so that she can reasonably arrange the medical expenses.
After doing this, Li Yi returned to the ward.
Opening the door, he saw mother and daughter Song Yingying chatting about something, so he walked over and said, "Auntie, I have paid the medical bills. I believe you will be able to have the operation in a few days."
Yingying's mother had tears in her eyes. It was impossible for ordinary people to be able to give so much money at once to a person who was not related by blood.
She kept thanking her: "Thank you, thank you. I will definitely work hard after I recover and pay off the money as soon as possible."
Li Yi changed the subject: "We can wait until you recover to talk about these things."
He looked at Song Yingying and whispered: "I will put the rest of the follow-up treatment fees on your card. The crew is still waiting for me to film, and I will leave soon."
Song Yingying was startled, "Are you leaving later?"
Li Yi nodded: "I booked a flight for the evening."
When Yingying's mother saw this, she persuaded her to stay: "How about you let Yingying take you to have a meal? You haven't been to Xiamen before."
Li Yiwan refused: "Auntie, when you recover, I will come to Xiamen again. Then I will eat and drink as much as you want. You can't drive me away."
When Yingying's mother heard this, she immediately became happy: "Okay, okay, when you come, I will make a lot of delicious things for you. Then Yingying, go and give Xiaoyi a present."
Song Yingying stood up and said to Li Yida: "Let me see you off."
This time Li Yi did not refuse, but walked out directly.
After leaving the ward, Song Yingying looked at Li Yi, suddenly stepped forward to hug her, and said, "Thank you."
Li Yi smiled and said: "Why are you talking? Thank you for this little help?"
Song Yingying let go of her hand and took a step back, "No matter what, you are now my benefactor, Song Yingying. As long as you say a word, I will promise you no matter what you do."
"Really?" Li Yi said with great interest.
Song Yingying's face suddenly turned red. She nodded slightly and said, "Yes."
"Then you should take good care of your mother. After you take good care of your mother, come back to Hangzhou, you know." Li Yi warned.
After Song Yingying heard this, her reddish eyes suddenly became moist again. She tried hard not to shed tears, and finally urged: "Okay, okay, you are so verbose, hurry up and get on the plane, I'll wait for you."
His new drama.”
In this way, Li Yi was "expelled" away.
In fact, he knew that Song Yingying was worried that he would see her crying again, so she urged him to leave.
Li Yi got on the plane flying back to Hangzhou, feeling a little melancholy. Maybe when Song Yingying returned to Hangzhou again, her temperament might have changed.
After returning to Hangzhou, Li Yi first called Cheng Yajie and briefly explained the situation to her before returning to the set.
Li Yi is deeply sorry for wasting a day of shooting time.
He bought a lot of barbecue snacks and asked the production assistant to distribute them to his colleagues in each room one by one.
Originally, having a day off was a cause for celebration for the crew, but who would have thought that Li Yi would feel guilty and buy a bunch of snacks.
This move made many people feel particularly heart-warming.
In the following days, Li Yi filmed the movie step by step.
Because the scenes of "Sword of Immortal" were divided into many different places, the filming process was quite bumpy.
One month passed quickly, and the filming progress was stopped by Director Li Guoli.
He wants to personally edit the scenes he shot previously.
Because Li Yi is an investor, this script is also the most thoroughly researched, and he also participated in the editing of the scenes.
The two of them divided the work and guided the team to edit all the footage that had been shot so far and divided it into twenty episodes.
And because the special effects team has been following the crew, while Li Yi and others are filming, they are producing post-production images at the same time, so the quality and speed are guaranteed.
Therefore, the post-production and shooting progress are carried out simultaneously. The clips edited by directors Li Yi and Li Guoli are all versions that have undergone post-production special effects.
When the crew watched the entire episode from episode one to episode 20, everyone burst into thunderous applause.
"It's so exciting. I didn't expect the first twenty episodes to be so good."
"Yes, the plot behind will definitely be more exciting!"
"I can't wait for this drama to be serialized."
At this time, Li Yi put forward a trendy point of view.
That is to first send these twenty episodes for review, and then arrange to sell the copyright to the TV station and film them while they are on air.
This point of view triggered active discussion among everyone.
Because domestic TV dramas are all shot in one go and then packaged and sold to TV stations.
They had only heard of this new model in foreign movies and TV series.
Li Guoli asked Li Yi: "Are you sure there is a TV station willing to buy our half of the copyright for "Sword of Fairy"?"
"Yes." Li Yi confidently said.
So director Li Guoli immediately decided to send these twenty episodes of the TV series for review.
At the same time, Li Yi also asked Chen Yanyu to contact major TV stations to release the news about the sale of "Sword of Immortality".
Because it was just revealed that Guoke Film and Television Company is a company invested by Li Yi, this news immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Many people are looking forward to which TV station will buy the rights to this popular drama.
Senior executives of major TV stations are also holding emergency meetings.
Golden Eagle Station held a meeting today.
Director Feng Chuan asked his colleagues below: "A conservative estimate is whether this "Sword" drama can bring in ratings."
The last time Golden Eagle TV purchased "The Great Qin Dynasty" produced by Tang Ren Film and Television, it ended up bumping into "The Myth" starring Li Yi.
At the beginning, the two dramas were evenly matched, and even "The Great Qin Dynasty" was slightly inferior.
But as the plot progresses, "Myth" is like a wild horse running wild, and its ratings are rising!
This made Director Feng Chuan extremely angry, so he had to make a careful choice this time.
A middle-aged woman wearing glasses took out a data report and said: "We just talked with the general manager of Guoke Film and Television about the price of film and television copyrights. Their film and television drama rights cost 120 million."
Is he crazy?" Director Feng Chuan shouted in surprise.
The middle-aged woman did not dare to speak at this time and observed the director's expression.
Director Feng Chuan finally calmed down and said, "You continue."
"Here, Tang Ren Film and Television also gave us a price, that is, "Xuanyuan Sword: Traces of the Sky" requires a film and television copyright fee of 70 million."
Because he had just heard about the copyright fee of over 100 million, Director Feng Chuan was calmer now that he heard about 70 million.
He asked: "Can you please discuss the advantages and disadvantages of these two dramas, "Sword of Immortality" and "Xuanyuan Sword"?"
Still the middle-aged woman, she continued: "This time "Sword of Immortality" is directed by director Li Guoli, and Li Yi, Yang Xiaomi and others are participating. It can be said that the lineup is very strong and the ratings are guaranteed. "Xuanyuan Sword" has
Huge, Guli Nazha, Jiang Jinfu, backed by Tang Ren Film and Television, the publicity is in place..."
"The plan here for "Sword and Sword" is to only sell twenty episodes of the copyright, and then film and broadcast it at the same time..."
Before the middle-aged woman finished speaking, Director Feng Chuan asked, "What, only selling the copyright for twenty episodes?"
"Yes." The middle-aged woman nodded and said, "They said they would sell the film and television rights for twenty episodes first, and then sell them after the remaining seventeen episodes are finished..."
Director Feng Chuan was always a bad-tempered person. When he heard that he was going to spend 120 million to buy the rights to one and a half movies and TV series, of course he quit!
Director Feng Chuan immediately slapped the table and said: "Go and negotiate with Tang Ren Film and Television! Purchase the copyright of "Xuanyuan Sword"."
"yes."
...
Li Yi called Chen Yanyu, "Sister Yu, have you released the news about the film and television rights for "Sword of Immortal"?"
Chen Yanyu said: "It has been released, and many TV stations are interested in cooperating. However, when they heard that only half of the film and television rights were sold, and they also heard that it would be purchased for more than 100 million, they stopped responding."
Li Yi became happy, "What channels are there?"
"There are Golden Eagle Terrace, Three Provincial Terrace, Tomato Terrace and several others." Chen Yanyu explained.
When Li Yi heard that there was no Mango Station, he had an idea in his mind. He told Chen Yanyu: "The price of the copyright cannot be changed, you know?"
"Yes, I understand, but...has anyone bought half of the film and television rights?" Chen Yanyu was a little worried.
After all, the entire company's funds have been invested in the drama "Sword of Immortal". If the film and television rights cannot be sold, then all money will be lost.
Li Yi said calmly: "Don't worry, a TV station is definitely discussing it now."
The TV station he was talking about was Mango Channel.
Sure enough, at this time, a group of executives at Mango Channel held an emergency meeting.
Director Jiang looked at other colleagues and asked: "Today we will discuss whether to purchase half of the film and television rights to "Sword of Sword"."
In fact, Director Jiang was already paying attention to "Sword and Sword" when it started filming.
Li Yi also created the program "Singer" on Mango Channel.
This made "Singer" the most watched program on the entire network last year.
For such a popular star, Mango Channel will definitely treat him as a godson!
In particular, Li Yi previously mentioned to Hong Xiao, the director of "Singer", that if he made a TV series, he hoped that Mango Channel would buy the film and television rights.
Director Jiang looked at Hong Xiao who said nothing and asked: "Li Yi is really so sure? Do you think the show "Sword" can be a hit?"
"Yes." Hong Xiao nodded: "He is sure."
"Why don't you make a phone call to test it out? Ask if you can buy the rights to the entire show, or if the price of the film and television rights for this half is slightly lower."
After all, the copyright fee for half of the movie is 120 million, and no TV station would be stupid enough to take such a risk.
Hong Xiao nodded immediately, "I'll make a call right now."
Dududu~~
The call was connected.
Li Yi said cheerfully on the other end of the phone: "Hey, Director Hong."
Hong Xiao also took advantage of the opportunity to become familiar with each other: "Xiao Yi, morning, have you had breakfast?"
"Eat, eat, what's wrong? Director Hong." Li Yi actually knew that he was here for the copyright of "Sword of Immortal", but he still said it deliberately.
"Um... Xiaoyi, I want to ask you about the copyright of "Sword of Immortality", please take a look..." Hong Xiao finally brought up this topic.
Li Yi pretended to be surprised: "You mean the copyright of "Sword of Immortality", right? Does Mango Channel have any intention?"
"Yes, yes!" Hong Xiao saw the opportunity, "Our director wants to ask you if you can make it cheaper, or sell the entire film and television rights to us directly."
Li Yiyu said earnestly: "Actually, I have a deep relationship with Mango Channel. As long as Mango Channel needs it, I will sell the copyright for free..."
When Hong Xiao heard this, he was even more overjoyed.
Unexpectedly, Li Yi continued: "But, after all, I am not the only one who has the final say on this copyright. There are many people waiting for the meal, right, so... not a penny less; and I say this sincerely
In other words, I think our "Sword" may not be worse than the previous series of "Myth" that set ratings records..."
As soon as these words came out, Hong Xiao was stunned and listened to Li Yi's words in a daze.
