Entertainment: My house collapsed and I was forced to start making movies

Chapter 105 Send money?

Many netizens in later generations regard "Sword and Sword III" as a classic, and they continue to miss it.

However, in fact, when this TV series was first aired, it was criticized by a group of people as a bad movie.

The ratings after the show was aired were not high, with a maximum of 4.6% and an average of 3.8%.

It was only later that the actors in this drama became popular, and each subsequent Xianxia drama was worse than the last, so some people were nostalgic for this drama.

Praise it as one of the ceilings of fairy tale dramas.

But in fact, many of the plots in this drama cannot stand up to scrutiny, and they all feel a bit frivolous.

This is also the reason why Tong Guan showed no mercy when he changed the show.

What is the plot of the original version?The story of a gangster who became a general in heaven and saved the world after sacrificing his sister, his friends, and his own life.

Interspersed with some classic plots from idol dramas.

A misunderstanding occurs with a friend, the friend goes astray, and eventually goes back to the right path.

There was a conflict between himself and his lover, but he finally reconciled and got together.

His lover was injured and turned into a vegetative state, but he finally saved his life through his efforts.

The revised plot of Tongguan Mo seems to be terrible, but it is actually about the same.

As a disciple of Shushan Sect, Xu Changqing personally solved the consequences left by the head of his sect and several elders when they saved the world.

In the process, he discovers his past life, and then renews his relationship with his lover from that past life.

Is this a problem?
No problem.

Moreover, compared to Jingtian, a gangster who saves the world, isn't it more reasonable for the upright Xu Changqing to save the world?
The core selling point of this show has never been the plot.

But the actors inside.

When all the actors become popular, everyone will find that the configuration of this drama is not as high as usual.

Even if you just watch it for eye candy, you will still think it is a good dinner drama.

And this was quickly discovered by the audience.

Who were the first people to watch the premiere of the TV series?

First of all, there are fans. There are fans of game IPs, fans of actors, fans of production companies, and fans of directors.

But who are the main people watching TV series?
They are students who are still studying and middle-aged people who have no pressure in life and watch TV to kill time.

Most of them are not fans of anyone.

It depends on whether the TV series is good or not. If it is good, they will watch it. If it is not good, they will change the channel.

Obviously, the plot of "Sword and Sword III" is not bloody in this era, and is even very reasonable.

Coupled with the good looks of the starring group, it quickly attracted a group of viewers.

Plus Tong Guan’s fans.

The ratings of this show went up immediately.

"Director Li, I heard that several TV stations are now looking for you to discuss copyright matters?"

Tong Guan said to Li Guoli on the other end of the phone with a smile on his face.

However, Li Guoli's expression was not so good.

When filming, he knew that this drama would definitely be broadcast on stars.

It can even be sold for a good price.

Because Tongguan's reputation lies here.

But he didn’t expect the data to be so good!
The current highest ratings are 8.4%, and the average rating is 7.6%. This is definitely heading towards the ratings championship!
The investment in this drama is only 4000 million.

He foolishly let half of it go out.

If I hadn't let him go out in the first place, the company's income would have doubled now!
"No matter what director Tong said, it's because you directed it well. If it weren't for your direction, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so popular."

Although there was a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart, Li Guoli still said with a smile.

Sugar Man is still cooperating with Tong Guan, so we still have to do our best to show off.

"It's all the result of everyone's joint efforts. I wonder what Director Li's plans are for the copyright of this drama?"

Although Tong Guan invested half of it, the copyright of "Sword and Sword III" is in the hands of Tang Ren, so he was quite polite in his words.

"What, the child guide has an idea?"

Li Guoli raised his eyebrows and said.

"Yes, my company has researched a video website and plans to acquire the broadcasting rights of a batch of film and television dramas. If Director Li is willing, we can discuss the price. I only want the network exclusive, and Director Li can arrange the rest by himself."

“Internet exclusive?”

Li Guoli fell into deep thought after hearing this.

He also thought that Tong Guan was good at data and wanted to directly acquire the copyright of this drama under his company and then sell it to other TV stations.

But now it seems that is not the case.

Although the Internet became popular in 08, the frequency of watching TV series online was not high.

Moreover, there are too many pirated versions these days. Those who can watch TV online will most likely watch pirated versions.

Internet exclusives don't make any sense at all.

The crackdown on domestic piracy is endless.

At least Tong Guan doesn't have that ability.

Therefore, Li Guoli concluded that Tongguan would not pay too much.

"2000 million? What does the child director think of this price?"

The first round of exclusive broadcast of "Sword and Sword III" was sold to Fruit Channel. The price of a single episode was only 80 yuan, and the total price was only 2960 million yuan. The original was not even returned. If you want to make money, you can only count on the subsequent rebroadcast rights.

But looking at the ratings, it won't be a problem to earn 3000 to [-] million by then.

But who would think it was too much money, so Li Guoli wanted to make some money from Tongguan.

"Director Li is just joking. The first round of solo broadcast is less than 3000 million, and your online solo broadcast is still asking for 2000 million. It's a bit outrageous." "How much does the child director plan to pay?"

Li Guoli also knows that 2000 million is impossible, but he must earn more if he can.

"I won't give it any more than 300 million. You know the internet situation in China. It's impossible for this drama to make a penny on my website. I just want to add a selling point to my website."

Li Guoli thought for a while.

In the current network situation in China, buying online exclusive broadcasts is purely a matter of paying for shout-outs. It is impossible to make money.
"Okay, Director Tong, just ask someone to come to the company with the contract."

"Okay, I'll ask the people below to meet with Director Li and your people later."

"OK, no problem."

"By the way, Director Li still has the copyright to "Sword of Sword One", right? Why don't I buy it together and just make a series."

"Online exclusive? Is that the same price?"

"can."

"So, happy cooperation?"

"Happy cooperation!"

People on both ends of the phone smiled.

Li Guoli feels that he is just making money.

There is no use keeping this Internet exclusive thing in his hands. Tong Guan is willing to give him 600 million, can he still refuse?

As for Tongguan making money from this?
Li Guoli doesn't think this is possible at all. There are so many domestic video websites. How many of them are authorized?

Even for some of the more famous ones at present, such as Youku, Baofengyingyin, and Qvod, who owns the copyright?
These are all pirated websites!

Tong Guan wants to fight his way out of this pile of pirated copies. If he had this business talent, would he still make Gou Ba movies?
The reason why Tong Guan laughed was very simple.

When 4G is launched in China in the future, domestic video websites will enter combat mode.

All parties have been beaten to the point of losing their minds.

At that time, Tong Guan will not participate in the war, but will quietly hold the copyright of his videos behind his back.

As long as you acquire enough copyrights before the video war, you can still squeeze out a way out even if you do nothing.

600 million, the copyright for two Fairy Sword series, which would have been unthinkable ten years later.

Li Guoli felt that Tong Guan was giving him money, but didn't Tong Guan think of him that way?

The explosion of "Sword and Sword III" has not only benefited from the two investors Li Guoli and Tong Guan.

The other two biggest beneficiaries are Tang Yan and Yang Mi.

As the heroine on the surface, Yang Mi naturally attracted attention from the outside world.

Especially since this heroine is a character voted for by game fans themselves.

Although they criticized the adapted plot of Tong Guan.

But she is particularly friendly to the heroine Yang Mi.

And Tong Guan also deliberately set the pace online to make everyone ignore Yang Mi's initial scandal with him.

I even clarified it in public.

"Actually, it's like filming a movie. I asked you to film it on purpose. I know you are interested in my private life, so I asked you to help me promote our company's new artists."

When Tong Guan said this, it didn't matter whether others believed it or not. At least Yang Mi's fans believed it.

They can hit back hard when others attack the way Yang Mi is famous.

This is the same as later generations of Yang Mi not admitting to plastic surgery.

Everyone knows she has had plastic surgery, so what?I just said I had a tooth extracted, what can you do?

As long as there is a reasonable excuse, these fans' mouths are tougher than aluminum alloy!
Although Tang Yan is not the heroine, she has a lot more scenes because of Tong Guan.

Regarding Zixuan played by her, everyone commented that she is beautiful and has aura!

You know, for an actor who has just debuted, having aura is the best evaluation.

Therefore, Tang Yan also took on many commercial performances during this period.

Many production crews even extended invitations to her, wanting her to audition for the show.

Although Tang Yan was very happy about this situation, he still asked Tong Guan for his opinion.

"I probably won't be free next year. You can take on two dramas first and take a look. The main thing is how the lineup is. If you're not sure, just let me have a look. I'll arrange it for you when I'm done."

"I know, boss~" Tang Yan said sweetly on the other end of the phone.

Although she occasionally complains that Tong Guan treats Yang Mi too well, she also knows that her current treatment is not bad.

"By the way, boss, what kind of character do you think I should choose? I recently discovered that Tiantian's character is very popular."

"No! Sister Yu! You give me the route of Sister Yu! Whose sweet girl is 1.7 meters tall and has long legs!"

"Oh~"

Although Tang Yan herself wanted to take the sweet girl route, Tong Guan said so, so she still chose to listen to Tong Guan.

"Okay, if you have nothing to do, do more commercial performances and find a teacher to improve your acting skills in your free time. The better your acting skills, the better for your future development."

"I know~"

"Well, hang up."

After hanging up the phone, Tong Guan wiped the sweat from his forehead.

I almost ignored the little girl Tang Yan.

In the previous life, Tang Yan was criticized for a long time because of the character of Silly Baitian.

The long-legged lady who is 1.7 meters tall insists on playing a silly and sweet girl. Isn't this looking for trolls?
