If we only look at the shooting cost, "I Am a Special Forces Soldier" cost a total of about 20 million. But if you include labor costs, accommodation and food for the crew, and human relationships, then the cost of this drama is much higher, about 35 million.

about.

Among them, 10 million is used to support the construction of the military region. This must also be included in the cost. Because if it were not for borrowing equipment from the military region to film TV series, Wang Xuan would not support the military region with 10 million.

The first broadcast rights are 1.5 million per episode, which is the price Wang Xuan set after weighing it. It is about the same as the filming cost of the TV series, and is used to recover the cost of the TV series. The second-round broadcast rights, and the third-round broadcast rights are used to make profits.

The first broadcast rights are 1.5 million/episode, and the second-round broadcast rights are half and half. It’s no problem to settle on 800,000/episode, and sell them to three or four TV stations. The third-round broadcast rights are half and half, and they are sold at 400,000/episode. The same is true for three or four TV stations.

TV station.

Calculated, each episode can earn about 5 million, with a total of 24 episodes, making a profit of 120 million. There will also be network broadcast rights later, and it should be no problem to sell it for 15 million...

The total profit was about 130 million, which was worthy of Wang Xuan's three months of hard work.

In fact, there are some profit models, such as cooperating with some brands before filming, the brands invest money to sponsor, the crew uses their brand products during the filming of the TV series, and advertises for the brands from time to time.

It's just that this kind of sponsorship usually doesn't cost much, and Wang Xuan is too lazy to invite external bids.

On the other side, when He Susu heard that the price of the premiere rights was 1.5 million per episode, her heart was shaken. The price had exceeded her psychological expectations. She thought that she could get the premiere rights at most 1.1 million per episode.

.

But when she thought of the station's instructions, He Susu breathed a sigh of relief. The price indeed exceeded her expectations, but it did not exceed the station's bottom line. The bottom line given to her by the station was 2 million per episode. As long as the sample was good, 2 million per episode would be paid.

You can get it directly within the set.

To be honest, He Susu has never fought for such a wealthy life. In the past, people in the TV station were always trying to make cuts. Not to mention winning a TV series with 2 million per episode, even 800,000 per episode was reluctant to part with it.

Didn't the channel hesitate for a long time to get the second-round broadcast rights of "Welcome to School Together" with 500,000 yuan per episode?

However, it was the TV series "Staying Together" that made Taiwanese money, and allowed Yangcheng Satellite TV to obtain high ratings, stimulating the Buddhist hearts of several senior executives in Taiwan.

Before "Staying Together", several station leaders never thought that the ratings of Yangcheng Satellite TV could be so high, and that the returns from high ratings would be so great.

It is said that it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality!

During the time when "Welcome to School Together" was aired, Yangcheng Satellite TV's ratings were very high, and could even compete with the five major TV stations. However, after "Welcome to School Together" ended, Yangcheng Satellite TV's ratings slowly dropped.

, and soon returned to the half-dead state before.

However, several Taiwan leaders are unwilling this time!

During this period, several station leaders organized them to hold meetings every day and asked them to discuss together and discuss a feasible plan to increase the ratings of Yangcheng Satellite TV.

After half a year of discussion, the "Yangcheng Satellite TV Ratings Boosting Plan" was officially launched.

In this plan, high-quality TV dramas are ranked first. This is the basic plan. Only with more quality TV dramas can we attract and retain viewers.

And keeping pace with the times, the introduction of some excellent entertainment variety shows has been placed second. Times have changed, and now young people are the ones who get the most ratings, and whoever wins the young people will win the world.

What young people like most is definitely relaxed and happy entertainment programs. For example, why Xiangjiang Satellite TV has secured its reputation as one of the top five major TV stations? It relies on TV series and variety shows.

Zhehai TV and Suning TV also rely on entertainment programs.

If Yangcheng Satellite TV wants to compete for ratings, it is necessary to create its own entertainment programs. It is not easy to create a good entertainment program, otherwise the industry will not continue to purchase sky-high copyrights from abroad.

But Yangcheng Satellite TV is not in a hurry. The first priority now should be to attract high-quality TV dramas and improve the ratings first. Unlike entertainment programs, TV dramas ignore the age of the audience and are suitable for all ages. Young people also like to watch them.

So when he saw that Wang Xuan had filmed a TV series, but no bidding had been invited, He Susu came to the door, fearing that he would be one step behind and be taken over by other TV stations.

Li Tao and He Susu came to Wang Xuan's office.

"Teacher Wang Xuan, the first broadcast rights of "I Am a Special Forces Soldier" cost 1.5 million per episode? Isn't this too high?" He Susu said.

"It's really not that high. If you hadn't come to me on your own initiative and we had cooperated before, maybe I would have sold it to 2 million per episode," Wang Xuan said.

"...Then can I watch the sample? If it's 1.1 million per episode, I'll probably take it directly, but 1.5 million... you know, after all, I'm not the absolute talker of our satellite TV. I haven't seen the sample at this price.

If so, I don't dare to make the decision directly." He Susu said.

"Of course. Brother Tao, please take Mr. He to the conference room to see the samples. It's quiet there and there's a big screen to watch." Wang Xuan said, handing the copied samples to Li Tao.

After Li Tao and He Susu went to the conference room, Wang Xuan called his assistant Weng Yong in: "A Yong, you should know how to submit a TV series for review by now, right?"

Weng Yong nodded: "I know."

"Then you can submit "I Am a Special Forces" for review. Director Zhu and Minister Li are usually busy, so I won't bother them with this matter," Wang Xuan said.

"I understand, just leave it to me from now on." Weng Yong said.

"That's not true. The film and television department will be responsible for this matter in the future. It's just that the main leaders of the film and television department haven't been in place yet." Wang Xuan said, "By the way, Ayong, you have been with me for a long time, have you ever thought about it?

What do you want to do in the future?"

"Is anything okay?"

"Career direction, whatever you want to do can definitely be done." Wang Xuan said.

"Then I want to learn filming, can Mr. Wang teach me?" Weng Yong asked.

"...You can definitely teach, but this is not easy to learn. Before I teach you, you may have to read the books on basic courses related to directing. And, if you want to become a good director,

Maybe I’ll have to dabble in acting.”

"I understand. In fact, I have bought a set of books during this period. It's just that it's a bit difficult to study on my own, and I can't understand a lot of theoretical knowledge."

"You can ask me if there is anything you don't understand in the future. When I shoot a movie or TV series, I will give instructions to the assistant director for a while, and you will learn from me in the future," Wang Xuan said.

He is actually quite willing to train Weng Yong to be a director. If Weng Yong wants to be a director, he is naturally more advantageous than others, because Wang Xuan has many scripts on hand for him to practice.

...

Weng Yong took "I Am a Special Forces Soldier" to submit for review.

After finishing editing "I Am a Special Forces Soldier", Wang Xuan became idle. In the whole Tianhai, countless people were busy, but Wang Xuan suddenly became an idler.

But he obviously forgot something. Until the editor Ziya sent him a QQ message: "Dear Luo Qiu, are you stuck? Why has the update of "Eternal Dragon Sword" been interrupted for more than ten days?"

"..." Wang Xuan only remembered after seeing this information that because he was too busy before, he had only written half of "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword", and the second half has not yet been written.

Yes, "Eternal Dragon Sword" was launched in early February, and it caused a huge sensation when it was released. Because in the first chapter of "Eternal Legend", the character who appeared was Guo Xiang, and so many people liked this girl.

I don’t know how many people rewarded Guo Xiang for his appearance that day, thinking that Guo Xiang would be the protagonist of "The Story of Heaven and the Dragon Sword". Guo Xiang was written about in several chapters, and he did look like the protagonist.

As a result, after a few chapters, Guo Xiang became completely invisible.

With the passage of time, decades passed in the blink of an eye, and another character appeared. Many book friends at that time had great opinions about this change, and the book review area immediately became uproar.

As the plot progresses, everything slowly gets better.

Now two months have passed, and most of the plot of "Eternal Dragon Sword" has been unfolded. It has been updated to the 21st chapter: solving problems and becoming the top six.

This is one of the most exciting plots in "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword", but as a result, Wang Xuan stopped updating it!

Then the book friends of "Eternal Dragon Sword" felt uncomfortable.

At first, book friends thought that Luo Qiu was just stuck, but Luo Qiu was interrupted for more than ten days. Finally, a group of book friends couldn't stand it any longer. Those who rewarded them rewarded them, urged those who urged updates, and left messages.

Message.

This incident even became a hot topic, but the photo was taken about ten years away. Wang Xuan was busy filming "I Am a Special Forces Soldier" and didn't pay attention to it.

Ziya also saw that Luo Qiu had been interrupted for too many days, so she became a little impatient. Otherwise, she would not have dared to disturb Luo Qiu. In her opinion, Luo Qiu was a bit mysterious and too aloof.

"It's Kavin. But now I have a clear idea, and updates will be resumed later." Wang Xuan could only reply like this.

"Okay." Ziya felt relieved after hearing this. This was what she wanted.

After finishing the call with Ziya, Wang Xuan rushed to work, coded two chapters and uploaded them. As a result, the book review section suddenly became abuzz.

"Thank God, Luo Qiu Dada finally responded with an update."

"It's so difficult. This period of time is so difficult. Do you know how I've been spending these days? I'm waiting for the update of "Eternal Dragon Sword". Ever since I watched Luo Qiu's Dada, I can't watch anyone else's.

Go down."

"Me too, during the last few days of autumn, I have been playing "Dragon", "The Condor", and "The Condor"."

"I'm not afraid of anything else. I'm just afraid that the eunuch will suddenly appear in the fall of autumn."

"Dear Luo Qiu, next time, please don't keep silent for more than ten days, okay? It's really scary, and my heart can't stand it."

"Mainly, this has never happened before. Luo Qiu's updates have always been on time, but now the updates are suddenly interrupted, which makes people unable to stop thinking about it."

"Is it because the performance of "Eternal Dragon Sword" is very poor? It makes Luo Qiu have no motivation to update? I will take the lead in fighting two golden alliances. Others who are capable will also support me, so that Luo Qiu will have a little motivation." After that, this person

Two pieces of gold immediately floated away.

"support!"

"support!"

The book review section was full of supportive voices, and many people took action and became popular and rewarded me.

The author circle of Shengshi Chinese Network is really envious.

After a break of more than ten days, the book friends had no objections and were still afraid of eunuch Luoqiu. In order to give Luoqiu motivation, they directly sent a large number of rewards, which was really disappointing. If it were them, they would have been scolded to death by readers.

.

"If you don't love more, you will be a eunuch if you don't love more" is their ending, there will be no surprises.

When Wang Xuan saw this, he was very embarrassed. It was obvious that he failed the readers by not saying a word, but the readers rewarded him instead... and the book friends loved him so much.
To be continued...
