After a few polite exchanges, the two sides took their seats, Zhao Yongqi naturally had him and his agent Ziye on one side, and on the TV station side, there were Zhang Quanquan, who was in charge of variety show entertainment, Chen Jiansheng, deputy director in charge of TV dramas, and Li Wei, director of the station.

"Xiao Qi, I invite you to come over this time, the first is to inform you about the preparations for the Legend of Sword and Fairy. Chen Jiansheng, who is in his forties and looks quite sven with glasses, said with a smile: "The financing of this TV series has been increasing, and the current total investment is expected to be 770 million, and the average investment in each episode is 22 million for 35 episodes. To be honest, in the past few decades, none of us have seen a TV series that can reach this level of investment. Basically, the investment level of some low-budget films in China is not comparable to the investment in one episode. And even so, there are still a large number of sponsors who want to join or increase the investment ratio. ”

Chen Jiansheng's words caused everyone to chuckle, and Zhao Yongqi was also slightly stunned before nodding his head to indicate that he knew.

After the laughter subsided, Chen Jiansheng continued with a little apology: "Because the fundraising continues to increase, our expectations for this series are also increasing, so whether it is props or costumes, although the preparation is going smoothly, it is far more time than before. Therefore, this TV series is estimated to be officially launched around October, which may be about four months later than the time I told you before, which is sorry, and I hope you can understand. ”

"Well, in fact, Director Zhang is also angry with me in this regard, since everything is going well, just for more refinement, I won't have any opinions. Zhao Yongqi nodded.

"Brother Qi's cool temperament is still so likable. Chen Jiansheng smiled and complimented without a trace, which attracted a kind chuckle from everyone, and then continued: "The work of the formation of the fairy sword crew is also going smoothly at present, except for the main actors designated by Xiao Qi, the rest of the characters with a photogenic rate of more than three episodes, there are basically no artists below the first line. I believe that after the official shooting, it will definitely cause a sensation. ”

Zhao Yongqi was about to answer, but Zi Ye pulled his sleeve, and after cutting off his words, he said to Chen Jiansheng seriously: "Deputy Director Chen, I heard a news before, it is rumored that a certain star hired by your station has surpassed Xiao Qi in terms of his appearance salary only in a single episode. Although it is your power, how much to pay is your power, but once this kind of news is confirmed, the impact on Xiaoqi's public opinion will be ...... I don't know, is there such a thing?"

"Oh, I'll explain it. Li Wei seemed to have expected Ziye to ask this question, and said very calmly: "In fact, some media reports are wrong, no one in the crew this time has a salary that exceeds Xiao Qi, and that person's salary is only equal to Xiao Qi." For some special reasons, we chose that person to participate, and we also discussed the salary. In fact, Xiao Qi's worth is indeed increasing every day, but if the original remuneration treaty is revised now, it will be more difficult for us to do it. Therefore, we propose to sign a supplementary agreement, Xiao Qi's remuneration for participating in a single episode of 1.5 million remains unchanged, and all the taxes that he should have borne will be paid by our TV station. In this case, the salary will actually be raised to between 1.85 million and 1.9 million, I don't know what Miss Zi thinks?"

Zi Ye glanced at Zhao Yongqi, and saw that he was drinking mineral water indifferently, and couldn't help but quietly glared at his unreliable big boss with beautiful eyes, and then said to Li Wei: "Director Li can handle it like this, we have no opinion." Actually, what we're worried about is not the salary, but the news that 'the main actor is not as good as the supporting role' in the future, which will make it difficult for us to continue working with Guitai. ”

Zi Ye's pun made several bigwigs of the TV station also nervous, and they immediately nodded and promised that this situation would not occur, which could be regarded as appeasing Zhao Yongqi, or rather, appeasing Zi Ye.

After this episode was finished, the atmosphere became harmonious again, and after Chen Jiansheng finished talking about the crew, Zhang Quanquan said happily to Zhao Yongqi: "Xiao Qi, the next thing to say is good news, just yesterday, the second season of the Brothers finally passed the review, and it is estimated that it will start broadcasting in June." ”

"Oh, this is really good news!" Zhao Yongqi nodded with a smile and said: "You don't know, every time you see the media, the first thing they ask is whether the program of the brotherhood has been cut, and it is so difficult for me to explain." ”

"Hahahaha......" There is a relaxed atmosphere in the conference room at the moment, the program of the brother group can be said to be the biggest cash cow in the TV station, it is said that the net income of a single issue can exceed 100 million, not counting the profits of various peripheral products. This program can continue to be broadcast, which is a real joy for the TV station.

Next, he talked to Zhang Quanquan about the content of the brotherhood program, and then when they parted, Zhao Yongqi declined the invitation of the TV station to hold a banquet, and finally returned to the hotel at noon.

After returning to the hotel, Zhao Yongqi found a few girls, and after having lunch with them, he rested in the room, and told them what happened in the morning as a joke.

After listening to the episode about the salary, Zhizhi nodded with a serious face and said, "Ye Zi Oni is right to do this. There are no real secrets in the circle, once this time there is a situation where the starring role is not paid as well as the supporting role, the next time you are invited again, the other producers will think you are a bully, and then there will be a lot of problems, and it will not be easy for you to deal with. If this continues, it will affect your interests. Now what Ye Zi Ernie is competing for is not these hundreds of thousands, but it is equivalent to releasing a sentence: Either don't invite our family Xiaoqi, or you are ready to treat him as the number one big name. ”

"It's so complicated. Zhao Yongqi scratched his head, and said with a dry smile: "I thought that Sister Ye Zi would ask for an increase in salary in order to make more money." ”

"Hehe, Brother Qi is really, Sister Ye Zi thinks so much about you, you still ......" Although Xiao Baozi didn't understand this, it didn't prevent her from laughing happily at the moment. For girls, as long as Zhao Yongqi is beneficial, it is good, just like her relationship with Ziye is very good, but due to the accident when "I am a soldier" before, she does not want to see Wang Fang. A soft and weak girl actually has a stubborn and persistent side.

As for Li Zhien, who was gnawing bananas next to him, he had the same attribute as Zhao Yongqi, staring at this with beautiful eyes for a while, and looking at that for a while, it was completely a model of understanding or not......
