In the sequel of "I Am a Special Forces Soldier", Yang Ming is neither the starring nor the director. This news seems to be a blow to the head of Director Liu of the army and Director Hao of the national TV station. =Ding=Point===x

=o

Why are the senior military leaders in charge of publicity so concerned about the filming of a TV series sequel?

Why did the national TV station, which obviously had nothing to do with them, send a director to follow up on the sequel filming?

Why?

Because the first part of "I Am a Special Forces Soldier" was so popular, with a ratings of 30%!

If this ratings data were placed 10 years ago, it would never have attracted so much attention from the top military officials, nor would it have made the national television station so worried, because at that time, the ratings of TV dramas often exceeded 20% every year, even if it was 30%

There are also one or two TV series with ratings of 10% every year.

But the golden age of TV dramas in the past is gone forever.

Moreover, the influence of a TV series with a ratings of more than 30% is really powerful.

Once a TV series with a viewership rating of more than 30% appears, there is only one situation for the public, and that is that it will be empty.

Obviously, this is the case with the TV series "I Am a Special Forces Soldier". Whether it is influence or economic benefits, it instantly beats other TV series of the same period.

It's no wonder that the national television station lowered its status and sent a director to personally follow the filming of the sequel to the TV series "I Am a Special Forces Soldier".

During the time period when this TV series was broadcast, the advertising revenue of the national TV station during this time period quadrupled!

With such huge profits, national television stations will naturally keep an eye on the sequel.

Unfortunately, Yang Ming refused to say anything surprising. He continued slowly: "Director Liu, I hope the sequel will be broadcast on Phoenix TV by then!"

As soon as these words came out, Director Hao's face from the national TV station turned dark instantly.

"How is this possible? TV series with the main theme of the army have always been broadcast on our national TV station, and there are legal documents for this!" Director Hao anxiously announced that if the sequel of "I Am a Special Forces" premieres, the national TV station

If he didn't get it, he was sure that as soon as he returned to the stage, he would be knocked out of the palace by the leader.

After finishing speaking, Director Hao still felt uneasy, and immediately said loudly to Director Liu who was a little dumbfounded at the side: "Old Liu, our station has an agreement with your army art troupe. This is clearly stipulated and cannot be doubted!"

"This?" Director Liu's mind has not yet recovered from the news that Yang Ming is no longer the lead actor and director of the sequel. At this time, he heard Director Hao's words again, and his whole head was like a mess.

.

When Director Hao saw that Director Liu had no reaction, he couldn't help but became anxious. He stood up, patted the table, and said sternly, Director Liu: "Old Liu, at this time, please don't give me a bad look. If you don't give me a warning,

If you explain, I will go find your leader."

Hearing that Director Hao was looking for a leader, Director Liu suddenly came to his senses and raised his hand to comfort Director Hao, who had a black line on his face, and said: "Don't worry, Old Hao, sit down first and speak slowly if you have anything to say.

.”

"What should I say, Lao Liu, if you don't give me an explanation, I'll go find your leader immediately." Director Hao said still anxiously.

At this time, Director Liu also slowly figured out the whole thing. Previously, Yang Ming said that he would neither star nor serve as director in the sequel. This news was put aside for now, but he didn't expect that Yang Ming would also say that "I Am a Special Forces Soldier" would be released.

"The sequel to "The Movie" was premiered on Phoenix TV, and Director Hao immediately jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

It seems that Yang Ming's words touched Director Hao's sensitive nerve.

Thinking of this, Director Liu suddenly felt awkward in his heart. He looked at Director Hao who was drinking water to calm down with a strange expression, and even felt a little relaxed in his heart.

In fact, in the past few years, the military art troupe has often been looked down upon by national television stations.

In recent years, the TV series with the main theme produced by the military art troupe and broadcast on national television have suffered a terrible decline in ratings. Last year, they even fell below the 2% passing mark.

Therefore, not only were the people in the cultural troupe criticized by the leaders, but even the people from the national television station did not have a good look towards them.

It can be said that the art troupe has been having a very difficult time in the past few years.

In fact, people at the national television station are also suffering. Although they are state-owned enterprises, they basically have no administrative funding and have to support themselves. So advertising revenue is naturally the largest source of income for the national television station.

However, every year the military passes an administrative order at the government level and must broadcast TV series with the main theme produced by the military. Even if no one watches it, it will still be broadcast.

If the ratings were decent, then that would be fine, but the ratings of the TV series sent by the army these days are simply appalling.

No one can bear this change!

Although there are pains on both sides, Director Liu now sees Director Hao seeking justice from him and insisting on playing the TV series with the main theme of the army. He feels like eating ice cream in the summer, very happy!

"Yang Ming, what's going on?" Director Liu didn't want to go too far. After all, the national television station had been blamed for the army in previous years, so he turned to Yang Ming and asked politely.

Upon hearing Director Liu's question, Yang Ming pretended to be helpless and spread his hands, and said to Director Liu with a grimace: "In fact, the copyright purchase fee given to us by the national TV station is too small!"

It was indeed a small amount. The single episode purchase fee given by the national television station was only 800,000 for a single episode. Yang Ming also asked whether the settlement would be based on the ratings. Unexpectedly, the people at the national television station ignored Yang Ming's request at that time.

That's what Yang Ming thought about. The reason why he made this TV series was not to make money, but to achieve cooperation with the military and pave the way for the use of military equipment in future big productions.

Therefore, he endured this tone at that time.

In the TV series "I Am a Special Forces Soldier", Yang Ming modified part of the plot and filmed a total of 30 episodes. This means that he only received 24 million yuan in copyright fees from the national TV station. After all, it was only a small profit.

It's just that compared to the income he made from TV series before, it's simply a huge difference.

Fortunately, in this TV series, many venues and facilities were provided by the military. Otherwise, the 24 million would probably only cover the filming costs.

In the first part, because of the agreement, Yang Ming had no right to speak at that time, so he just pinched his nose.

Now that he wants to make a sequel, he naturally can't let it go like this. What's wrong with the national TV station? If he doesn't pay, he still won't give the first broadcast rights to the national TV station.

"Um, is 800,000 yuan less?" Director Liu is a little unclear about the purchase price of TV series. In the past, their agreement with the national TV station was to purchase the copyright for a single episode for 800,000 yuan. Besides, the cost of a general theme TV series is mainly the cost of personnel recruitment and equipment and scenes.

, these are basically free for the military art troupe.

Therefore, for the military, the price of a single episode of RMB 800,000 is generally calculated as at least 50% profit. Director Liu used to think that the ratings of his TV series were not high, and he could still get so much money from the national TV station.

I felt a little bit sorry.

Yang Ming noticed that Director Liu was a little confused, so he had to spread knowledge for Director Liu and said: "Director Liu, I once had a purchase agreement with Yanjing TV Station for the first broadcast rights. If the TV series I filmed once the ratings exceeded 10%,

Then Yanjing TV Station will pay me at least 2 million for a single episode!"

"Two million!" Director Liu gasped. He was really shocked this time.

Director Hao was sitting aside when he heard this number. His eyes jumped and the black line on his forehead became thicker. Director Liu, as a military officer, might not pay attention to this. How could he not know?

Moreover, Yanjing TV Station and the National TV Station are both located in Yanjing and have inextricable connections. Director Hao basically knows everything about the affairs between Yanjing TV Station and Yang Ming.

With a ratings of 10%, the purchase price of a single episode is 2 million. According to this algorithm, with a ratings of 30%, wouldn’t the purchase price of a single episode be 6 million?

If he really buys it at this price, then the national TV station will be working in vain, and the boss will probably blast him to death when he gets back!

No, it absolutely cannot be like this. When Director Hao thought of this, he immediately raised his eyes and said rudely to Yang Ming: "Director Yang Ming, our national television station has an agreement with the army. Yes, the film "I Am" you filmed

The ratings of "Special Forces" are very high, but you haven't seen the ratings of TV series sent by the military before."

After finishing speaking, Director Hao still did not stop. Instead, he turned to Director Liu and sneered: "You can't just cross the river and burn the bridge now that your art troupe has achieved some results, right?"

Director Liu looked a little embarrassed when he heard this and hesitated. He didn't know what to say for a moment. If he really did this, the army would indeed be suspected of burning bridges. In the past, the national TV station broadcast TV series with the main theme of the army. Although there were complaints, it did go as promised.

Broadcasting, you can’t just switch TV stations now that you have a big-selling TV series!

This is indeed a bit unethical when you think about it, especially when it comes to the military, it is even more inappropriate.

After listening to Director Hao's righteous words, Yang Ming smiled slightly, knocked on the table, and said calmly: "Director Hao, first of all, you have to make one thing clear. We are Oriental DreamWorks, not an art troupe of the military. We have nothing to do with the military.

The relationship is just a cooperation. Our company was commissioned by the military to produce a TV series with the main theme, and in fact we completed this task perfectly. As for the sequel, it is an additional task. We have the right to negotiate the premiere rights.

Call for public tender!”

After he finished speaking, he thought for a moment and added: "Let me use an analogy. We at Oriental DreamWorks are like foreign aid. Now that we have completed this job for the military, we can withdraw. As for where we will go next."

, it should be our own business. As for the next thing for you and the military, just find their original team."

Director Hao was stunned. Although Yang Ming didn't understand what he said, he knew very well what Yang Ming meant.
Chapter completed!
