Chapter 675 - Broadcasting Rights
Wang Yong didn't know what to say, he bid 30% of the royalty rate on behalf of the Culture Publishing House, which was already the limit of what he could take, and if it was more, the profit and loss ratio of the publishing house would inevitably be out of balance. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
But he didn't expect that the Tang Dynasty Publishing House seemed to be pinching the 30% bid that others would bid, and it actually took out 1% more!
Not to mention 31%, even if it is 21%, there are only a handful of writers in the entire country who can get this royalty rate.
In China, 15% is already the standard for top writers, which is like a rarity.
And 10% is the price code of first-line popular writers.
Today's royalty rate of 20% is only available to the world-famous Hus, who advocated vernacular writing and led the New Culture Movement.
According to the current situation of domestic royalty rates that Li Qing learned in his previous life, the royalty rate of the works of Han Han, the national father-in-law, is as high as 20% in later generations.
The royalty rate of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" reached 31%, which can be said to open a new chapter in the writer's industry.
In other words, it is the Tang Dynasty Publishing House, which this time can be said to be a loss-making business without profit.
The sales of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" must at least exceed one million copies in order to be barely profitable.
But it's just barely profitable, and if you want to make everyone happy, you have to sell at least 10 million copies.
The book has sold more than 10 million copies across Asia so far, but will "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" create this miracle?
Everyone knows that if it is only the mainland market, it will definitely not be able to achieve this figure.
It is conceivable that the front-page headlines of the major media newspapers tomorrow will inevitably be the report of Li Qing, the first person in the Chinese writer's royalty rate.
After the first bidding meeting, under the emotion of countless people, the second bidding meeting was belated.
"What is released this time is a script of a military-themed TV series created by Li Qing himself......"
As Xu Wen's introduction sounded, the projector slowly started, and four big words began to appear on the curtain - "Soldier Assault".
When Xu Wen said that the script of this TV series belonged to the military theme, everyone at the scene chuckled.
If you want to shoot military-themed movies and TV series, you have no choice but to cooperate with Bayi Studios.
And listening to Hanhai's tone, this TV series is obviously going to be filmed by their company personally-
You're ready to shoot it yourself, and you took it out for bidding, isn't there no silver three hundred taels here?
Sure enough, after the bid for "Soldier Assault" was handed over, Xu Wen announced the final winning result - Bayi Studio.
The winning bidder was Bayi Studio, and the specific details of the cooperation required Hanhai's director team to negotiate with the production team of Bayi Studio.
Before you know it, an hour has passed.
One by one, the delegations of the major television stations became energetic.
Li Qing appeared on the stage again, he pinched the small card in his hand, and said with a smile: "Hanhai took the lead in opening the mode of separation of production and broadcasting in China, which may be common overseas, but in China, we are the only Hanhai Culture Media. Hanhai also lived up to expectations, and the first program "The Masked Singer" produced was widely praised by audiences all over the country, and now, with the end of the first season of "The Masked Singer", the ownership of the second season has become the focus of everyone's attention. ”
Today, Hanhai will select the broadcast platform for the second season of "The Masked Singer" at this bidding conference. ”
Everyone watched Li Qing talk on stage, and their eyes were nervous.
The leader of the Shonan Satellite TV delegation is Jiang Yan, the director of Shonan Satellite TV, and next to her, Lin Xiang, Kong Xun and others also came to the scene.
Kong Xun is the production director of "Superstar", from the beginning to the end of the broadcast of "Superstar", although he has become popular with many civilian singers along the way, but when it comes to influence and ratings, he has always been suppressed by "The Masked Singer".
Although there was still resentment in his heart, Kong Xun still adhered to the attitude of learning and asked to follow Jiang Yan, the director of Shonan Satellite TV, to the Hanhai Bidding Conference, ready to see the other two variety shows of Hanhai Satellite TV for the first time.
According to him, maybe inspiration comes, and he can think of ace shows like "The Masked Singer".
"The Masked Singer" has the foundation of the first season, and the broadcast rights of the second season must be a sky-high price. ”
Glancing at some second- and third-tier satellite TV platforms nested in the corner not far away, Jiang Yan raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a trace of disdain: "These city-level TV stations, even if they come, are only in vain, predators compete for interests, how can there be room for small shrimp activities." ”
Lin Xiang smiled beside him: "Sister Jiang, the funds given by the director this time are sufficient, but platforms such as Beijing Satellite TV, CCTV, and Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV are not the main ones who lack funds, so it is better for us to use the scattered funds and specialize in one project." ”
"When I arrived, I promised Xie Tai that I would have to win at least two events to win. ”
Jiang Yan pushed the black-framed glasses on the bridge of her nose, and said lightly: "The Masked Singer" must be won, otherwise, will it be crushed by this show next year? ”
Hearing the sarcasm in Director Jiang's words, Kong Xun's big cake face immediately turned red.
He got tens of millions of funds from the station to run a talent show, he was originally full of ambition, but he didn't expect to be beaten by a "The Masked Singer" with only four million production costs, and since then, no matter who it is, as long as he has some trouble with Kong Xun, this joke has become the best reason to attack him.
But he didn't know how to explain it or how to talk back......
Such a sense of grievance made Kong Xun full of resentment towards Hanhai Media.
"The other two programs produced by Hanhai have not yet been announced, and they may have greater potential than "The Masked Singer"......" Lin Xiang suggested: "If there is indeed great potential, it may cause many people to compete, and when there is a gap in funds, we will be at a disadvantage." ”
"Don't worry, the amount of funds I got this time is enough to buy two of these shows, which is more than enough. Jiang Yan looked a little confident.
Seeing this, Lin Xiang didn't say anything more, and looked at Li Qing on the stage, with admiration and admiration in his eyes.
It's as good as she expected back then, the little boy, once he seizes the opportunity, he can climb to the sky in one step and become the pinnacle that everyone looks up to......
Soon, the host Xu Wen broke out the starting bidding price of the second season of "The Masked Singer" - 8 million yuan.
That's double the price of the first season's broadcast rights!
And this price also includes the right to rebroadcast.
In other words, the TV station that purchased the broadcast rights of the second season of "The Masked Singer" was also given the broadcast rights of "The Masked Singer".
At that time, whether it is Hong Kong, Taiwan, or Macau's radio and satellite television, as long as they are interested in broadcasting "The Masked Singer", they will be able to buy the broadcast rights from this TV station.
But in fact, this broadcast right, before the first season of "The Masked Singer" became popular, still had a certain sale value, at least bringing Hong Kong ATV, which was once on the verge of bankruptcy, back to life.
But at present, it is quite chicken ribs, tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to abandon it.
Because with the popularity of "The Masked Singer", viewers in Hong Kong and Taiwan, as long as they have the heart to watch it, they can easily search for mainland TV channels without buying a decoder, which is convenient and affordable, which is a treatment that mainland audiences cannot enjoy.
