Chapter 331 The past five years have proven one thing, believe in Guan Ling!
"Social welfare variety show? Is Director Guan going to be that weirdo again?"
When the news swept the media, it quickly aroused the confusion of the majority of TV viewers.
“For social welfare, isn’t it necessary to do advertising? Wash your mother’s feet, do a variety show, who will watch it?”
In fact, this problem not only bothers many viewers, even for those who Many directors of other satellite TV stations are also confused by Monk Zhang Er.
Especially because Guan Ling has already cooperated with Jiangsu Satellite TV, and there was no news at all before!
After that, more news details were gradually revealed.
Guan Ling did not give any samples to these TV stations, nor did he give any indicators to the TV stations. He just inquired about the intentions of several TV stations and sent emails.
The reason why Jiangsu Satellite TV grabbed this cooperation right is because their staff went to work ten minutes early.
Then this concept was quickly finalized by Jiangsu Satellite TV with a copyright fee of 30 million and Lingyun Media’s 35% of the cooperation income!
As soon as the news came out, the whole network was in an uproar!
When other people engage in variety shows, from production to watching samples on TV stations, reviewing, and broadcasting, it takes more than four months, and it is normal for it to take an extra year.
And Guan Ling, with just a name, a concept and an outline, he made appalling profits!
This news shocked many TV stations in the industry. Even within Jiangsu Satellite TV, there are actually some different opinions.
The main source of these different opinions is the question of what social welfare variety shows are.
If you don’t understand this, it’s impossible to make money.
In 2010, Mainland China TV variety shows have continued to bring happiness to the audience.
There are about sixty well-known variety shows on major TV stations across the country, mainly focusing on five aspects: performances, interviews, competitions, auditions, and dating, marriage, and love.
In addition to "Happy Camp", the more well-known performance programs include CCTV's "Quyuan Zatan", Guangdong TV's "True Live Real Music", Southeast TV's "Happy 100", Lu The province's "Head Start" and so on.
The most famous interview variety show is "Tian Tian Shang Shang".
The competitive categories include "Awesome", "You Will Win If You Love to Work Hard", "Happy Dictionary", "I Love Memorizing Lyrics", "Wise and Courageous" and so on.
The draft category is the most awesome track.
After "Happy Boy" and "Happy Girl" took the industry by storm, talent show variety shows are still very prominent, and programs such as "Extraordinary Six Plus One" and "Avenue of Stars" are making steady progress.
As for dating and love-making programs, none other than "If You Are the One", "Let's Date", "One in a Hundred", etc. are very popular and have attracted the ratings of the young, middle and old generations.
Among them, "If You Are the One" is the most popular.
In the five months since its launch, "If You Are the One" has contributed to the scandals of "BMW Girl" Ma Nuo, Yan Fengjiao's "Pornographic Photo Scandal", and "Rich Second Generation" "Beautiful Man" are all the topics and characters that have attracted attention recently.
Tieba has directly contributed millions of fans, surpassing "Happy Camp" and becoming the top variety show in the country within three months of its launch.
But these mature variety shows have nothing to do with social welfare!
Guan Ling participated in the national variety show for the first time and presented everyone with a dish they had never seen before!
"Can't Forget the Restaurant" is a new type of variety show!
And brand new represents the unknown, which means there is a high possibility of losses!
This is not unacceptable to any TV station.
But with a copyright fee of 30 million plus 35% of advertising revenue, even if the station charges Jiangsu Satellite TV, the person in charge of signing the contract, with embezzling state-owned assets, it may be enough.
And Jiangsu Satellite TV actually signed the contract directly!
Leave the big picture!
Everyone in the industry was buzzing when they heard the news.
Is Jiangsu Satellite TV a fool? Do you really dare to take such a big gamble?
Can Ling Guan, who is a big gambler, also be able to create miracles in variety shows? !
——
“I think the decision made by Director Chen this time is really a bit sensational!”
At an internal meeting of Jiangsu Satellite TV.
Deputy Director Zhang leaned on his chair, his voice full of incomprehension.
Although he had his eyes closed, he seemed to have a sharp gaze, staring at Director Chen.
“The copyright fee is 30 million, not to mention that from the perspective of copyright, everyone can copy it now, and it costs very little.
And the profit share of the advertising revenue later , It’s like treating the TV station as Lingyun Media’s own back garden.
If this happens, the money we earn from “If You Are the One” will probably have to be used for this new program.”
Director Chen was sitting at the front, his hands flat on the table, his face calm, and he was looking at everyone.
"Does anyone else have different opinions? Put them forward together, and I will explain them one by one."
Everyone below looked at each other, but no one spoke.
The two station directors have never been easy to deal with. Everyone knows this, but even for people at the director level, it is impossible to offend both parties to death, so most of them dare not Say something.
Deputy Director Zhang of Jiangsu Satellite TV has been very proud of himself recently. "If You Are the One" is a program approved by the director, but he was the one who dug it up. And all along, the production team of "If You Are the One" and even the variety show production director belong to Deputy Director Zhang. people.
Each of them has their own power.
“Okay, then it seems that only Deputy Director Zhang has a different opinion.”
Director Chen pronounced the word “vice” very strongly, which was a clear attempt to embarrass him in the meeting .
It was just like Deputy Director Zhang pointed at himself and said that his decision was sensational.
He also directly faced Deputy Director Zhang and opened his mouth.
At least after reading this accent, you can hear the needle drop at the meeting.
"The copyright fee was not proposed by me, but the idea put forward by Lingyun Media after I proposed cooperation. This copyright fee is not unique to one season. If the program can continue, then The copyright fee may be spread evenly over every subsequent season."
"Isn't this even more unfair? If the show is only broadcast for one season, wouldn't the 30 million be wasted for no reason?
And if there are other seasons, don’t we have to share our advertising revenue with Lingyun Media every time? This kind of cooperation is unprecedented! No matter which TV station it is, it is impossible to accept this kind of cooperation. Pattern!
To put it bluntly, this is giving birth to a child through borrowed money. Our Jiangsu Satellite TV is Lingyun Media, and it is Guan Ling’s belly!
I admit that Director Guan is a benchmark for the entire country of China in terms of film production and TV production, and he is also a benchmark figure in the entertainment industry.
But this is a variety show after all, and TV and movies are not the same model at all! "
Deputy Director Zhang was unreasonable and responded fiercely to the "vice".
"Deputy Director Zhang, I know you are in a hurry, but please first Don't worry, at least listen to what I have to say first, okay? "
Director Chen rubbed his forehead and continued,
"A week ago, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television issued an official "Notice", believing that "If You Are the One" involves pornography, fraud, and vulgarity. So the state directly punched down and demanded that we oppose the three customs! Although our "If You Are the One" has been criticized by name, it has attracted the attention of audiences across the country, and the higher authorities did not block it, which is a sign of respect.
But while we are producing entertainment programs, we cannot rely on one way to stand out in various homogeneous competitions.
Playing the beauty card, special hosting card, occasionally interspersed with the embarrassing man card, the shocking words card, and the network promotion card. Although it will completely surpass the development of ordinary TV programs and become popular quickly, the issue of public opinion must be in the future. A huge source of controversy.
At this time, the olive branch extended by Director Guan Ling is undoubtedly the best opportunity for us. We can improve our own image, and at the same time, we can take advantage of the popularity of the release of "Father Trapped in Time". Making this show popular before it is aired will help attract significant investment in the first season.
Thirty million may seem like a lot, but in fact, with Guan Ling’s name, do you think it’s difficult to accept these advertisements?
The best of both worlds, why not do it. "
The meeting fell into silence.
Only Director Chen's voice continued to echo,
"Besides, what if this variety show becomes popular? "
No one responded to what would happen if it became popular.
Only Deputy Director Zhang continued, "What if it doesn't become popular? Who will take responsibility? "I am the director of the station. Is it possible that you, the deputy, should take the responsibility?" "
Director Chen snorted coldly. He knew that Deputy Director Chen was forcing him to say these words, but he still said it.
"Okay, In this case, I am talking too much. ”
The meeting broke up unhappy.
After everyone left, only Director Chen was left in the conference room, leaning on the back of his chair and exhaling a breath of foul breath.
"The director is under pressure?" the assistant next to him asked.
“No.”
“Then why are you sighing?”
“Many people have many thoughts, but they never want to cut through the appearance to see the essence.”
"Director, what you mean is a bit profound, I don't understand."
"In the past few years, Jiangsu Satellite TV has broadcast TV series related to Guan Ling, only last year's "" "Latent", and it was broadcast on Jiangsu Satellite TV in subsequent rounds, but it still ranked first in the TV series ratings last year.
Looking at Guan Ling's first movie until now, Has he ever lost?"
"It seems, not really."
After hearing the answer from the assistant below, Director Chen smiled.
“Yes.
The first multi-line narrative film, creating a low-cost masterpiece of CCTV.
A masterpiece of suspense and true reasoning, with a box office of over 100 million, becoming a A great commercial director, he also won the Golden Horse Award.
The film "Hearing Girl" went directly to Hollywood.
The middle film "Shark Beach" directly created a new genre of Chinese films.
After that, TV dramas flourished in many areas, and the box office of movies became higher and higher. It won the Palme d'Or and the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film,
and even helped other directors enter the billion-dollar club. , the 200 million yuan club, won the Golden Lion Award
The past five years have only proved one thing,
I believe Guan Ling is the best choice.
Even if this is his first variety show, as long as he dares to do it, I will dare to invest. This may also be the only opportunity for Jiangsu Satellite TV to have close cooperation with Guan Ling's Lingyun Media. "
After listening to what Director Chen said, the assistant was silent.
"Director, what if his variety show just doesn't work? "
After hesitating for a moment, the assistant asked again.
"Haha, then I'll quit," Director Chen chuckled, "Anyway, this is what Zhang has always wanted to do. Things really failed, and the responsibility can only be mine.
But I believe that I will not lose. "
"Yes, looking at it this way, Director Guan will not lose. "The assistant also began to mutter to himself.
I only know that Guan Ling is awesome, but when we compare Guan Ling's initial stage with the current situation.
Only do we know that Guan Ling is awesome? This belongs to the gods.
There will never be another person in the Chinese entertainment industry.
——
A variety show has once again filled the industry with countless topics for discussion.
But all this has nothing to do with Guan Ling.
He went back home and bought a row of massage chairs for his home.
I got a lot of autographs from celebrities for my sister.
Having stolen half a day's leisure, the popularity of "Father" made Guan Ling feel a little peaceful in his heart.
June is a good time for fishing.
The family found a fish pond together, threw hooks, and sat there all afternoon.
"Brother, where is sister-in-law?"
My sister looked at Guan Ling and asked.
"Which sister-in-law?" Guan Ling replied subconsciously.
“Huh?”
My sister’s eyes were full of curious curiosity, “Of course it’s sister Liu Yifei, how many sisters-in-law do I have?”
“ She went to promote "Inception""
Guan Ling said, "The promotion of "Inception" will be very intense this time, and she will be very busy at the moment."
" Then why don't you go?"
"The people behind the scenes are not attractive enough to the audience, and I am lazy."
Guan Ling's voice made my sister oh, but this answer was obvious. , does not satisfy her.
Guan Ling has rarely had a long break. During this time, he is ready to relax. This is my hometown.
During the days before and after the release of "Inception", Guan Ling really didn't want to be too nervous.
The box office of "Father" exceeded 100 million on its fourth day. This result did not give Guan Ling any emotional fluctuations.
On the contrary, the World Cup gave Guan Ling a lot of excitement.
This World Cup, Guan Ling remembers many famous scenes.
Octopus Paul became famous after the results of the group stage.
England's goal-line injustice simply lowered the penalty limit for this session by more than ten times.
In the quarter-final match between Uruguay and Ghana, Guan Ling witnessed with his own eyes an unparalleled classic.
Suarez dunked directly in front of the goal!
The hand of God reappears! Led Uruguay to the semi-finals.
Just wanting to buy a ball, Guan Ling really can’t remember the score. He only remembers that Spain won the final 0-0 and won the championship in overtime.
The reason why I remember it clearly is because Spain was eliminated in the group stage the next year. This can be regarded as a continuation of the classic elimination of the World Cup champions in the group stage.
As expected, the Shanghai International Film Festival did not create any waves. All the heat was almost completely absorbed by Guan Ling and the World Cup.
The release of "Ocean Paradise" benefited from Guan Ling's credit. The box office on its first weekend exceeded 10 million, which can be regarded as making money for this low-cost film.
But there is a huge difference between Guan Ling and the movie!
Li Lianjie could only accept it silently.
As time goes by slowly, the most anticipated summer blockbuster in the entire Chinese entertainment industry is quietly kicking off.
