Chapter 524 Farewell to the Desert
This night was undoubtedly a happy one for Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun.
They once again witnessed Su Chen's variety show explosion.
So far, they already have two popular variety shows, "If You Are the One" and "I Love to Remember Lyrics".
All together, they can get 10% of the profits.
Considering the vigorous life cycle of variety shows, this is definitely a huge profit.
Well, in their home, the Zhong brothers actually had the urge to kowtow to Su Chen.
Half a month ago, Xingyi Media was ridiculed by the industry as a "variety show desert".
But just half a month later, two popular variety shows were produced through Xingyi Media.
In this way, the brand value of Xingyi Media in the entertainment industry will be even higher in the future.
And, predictably, it did.
After tonight, Su Chen's reputation in the variety show industry will be fully established.
In the future, invitations to various variety shows will come in droves.
In other words, they have another way to make money.
Just thinking about it makes me happy.
at the same time.
In fact, Su Chen only watched a small half of the first episode of "I Love to Remember Lyrics".
Then I took a break from my busy schedule and played some games.
For things that you have planned, just make sure that Blue Mold TV implements them completely according to your plan.
To be honest, I have seen too much and have become aesthetically fatigued, so Su Chen really has no interest in watching any further.
But Su Chen was very clear.
After hosting two popular variety shows in succession, his influence in the variety show industry must be very different.
And that is indeed the case.
The next day when Su Chen came to his office.
An unexpected discovery.
Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun were already waiting there early.
"Good morning, Xiaochen!"
Seeing Su Chen appear, Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun immediately came forward to greet him warmly.
"Xiaochen, you're here!"
Su Chen: "Good morning, Mr. Zhong."
"What's the matter?"
However, Su Chen knew that the Zhong brothers would never come to his temple without a request.
Zhong Lei spoke first at this time:
"Xiaochen, this is the case. Right now, more than 20 local satellite TV stations have sent you invitations to plan variety shows."
"Do you think you could take a look at it and think about it?"
Zhong Jun: “The prices are very attractive!”
Su Chen nodded: "Of course."
"Mr. Zhong, please come in and sit down first."
Su Chen had already anticipated this. Since this lucrative business came to his doorstep, Su Chen would certainly not refuse it.
"Manguo TV, Modu TV, and Kyoto TV offered the highest prices."
After entering Su Chen's office, Zhong Lei immediately pulled out a stack of papers from the folder.
Placed it in front of Su Chen.
As for the quotations from other satellite TV stations, they were relatively too low, so there was no need to talk to Su Chen about them.
"oh……"
As he spoke, Su Chen picked up the quotations for the invitations.
"Kyoto TV is still more sincere."
After reading the quotations from the three major satellite TV stations, Su Chen sighed softly.
In fact, Su Chen had already prepared for the invitations from the three major satellite TV stations.
If Shanghai TV wins the bid, Su Chen will come up with the variety show plan for "Extreme Challenge".
If Mangguo TV wins, Su Chen will bring out "Brothers Who Overcome All Troubles".
But now, since Kyoto TV has won, Su Chen plans to come up with a variety show plan for "The King of Crossover Singer".
These variety shows would have been extremely popular in another time and space.
What Su Chen took out can be regarded as a tribute to the classics.
Of course, these were just Su Chen’s thoughts and he couldn’t tell Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun.
Of course, Zhong Jun didn't know that under Su Chen's honest appearance, there were so many twists and turns in his heart.
"So, we will accept the invitation from Kyoto TV this time?"
At this time, Su Chen still had to make the final decision, so Zhong Jun would not overstep his authority when the meaning was clear. Instead, he waited for Su Chen to speak out.
Zhong Lei looked at Su Chen eagerly.
Although the price of Kyoto TV is only a little bit higher, it is also a symbol of one's worth!
Have you ever seen any satellite TV station willing to make such a big concession?
Looking at the entire entertainment industry, only Su Chen has such a face and worth.
As Su Chen’s in-depth cooperation partner, Xingyi Media is of course proud of it.
"Okay! Then this matter is settled!"
"I'll go back and inform Kyoto TV that they have won the bid."
Originally, Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun had a friendship with Kyoto Satellite TV. Now, taking this opportunity, they can give Kyoto Satellite TV some face. Why not do it?
"Um……"
Su Chen nodded.
But at this time, Su Chen didn't plan to start working immediately.
Because he was so productive during this period.
Therefore, he decided to leave it alone for two days before handing in the plan.
So there is no need to pretend to be cool in front of Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun.
Zhong Jun: "We are not in a hurry for this plan, ah."
"We have at least three months. Take your time."
Yes, as the price increased and with the understanding of Su Chen's efficiency, Kyoto TV also gave a three-month deadline that exceeded the usual standard.
Su Chen smiled faintly: "I know."
It’s just writing a copy, Su Chen really doesn’t need to rush, it will only take two or three hours.
"Then let's go do something first."
"Take your time ."
Having said that, Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun left Su Chen's office with a smile on their faces.
Too strong. No matter what the matter is, it seems effortless for Su Chen.
Yes, Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun felt more comfortable than ever before.
In the past, Xingyi Media was very strong in the film and television industry, but in fact, they had put a lot of painstaking effort into every project in the past.
How could it be as easy as after having Su Chen?
You say the music is not good, Su Chen just throws out a few songs and the music department rises instantly.
You said the TV series was not good, but Su Chen's "Wulin Waijia" immediately turned the situation around.
The same is true now. You said that Xingyi Media is a "variety show desert", but Su Chen launched two popular variety shows in succession, making Xingyi's variety shows a hot commodity in the industry.
What’s more, now the third variety show plan is about to come out.
Although they told Su Chen to take it slow.
However, Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun were very clear that according to Su Chen's efficiency, it would be considered slow to come up with the variety show plan in a week.
Ming Che, the director of the variety show department of Shanghai TV, was anxiously waiting for a reply.
Yes, according to his understanding of Su Chen and Xingyi Media, the invitation for this variety show planning project will be announced in the morning.
Other variety show planning companies might have to discuss this matter for most of the day, but for Su Chen, it takes no more than an hour to make a decision.
Mingche looked at his phone and it was almost ten o'clock.
If Shanghai TV wins the bid, there should be a reply.
At this time, Mingche's heart became inexplicably uneasy.
Shanghai TV only wants 39% of the revenue share, and it's still a concession. Isn't it enough to win Su Chen's variety show planning proposal?
If this still doesn't work, he will probably be scolded to death by the station director.
But it shouldn’t be that serious!
Mingche did sufficient research before making this offer.
The Master also agrees with his own opinion.
But of course, if it fails, the Master’s attitude will definitely be different.
However, can the second-tier satellite TV stations offer a higher price than their own?
In Mingche's opinion, this was obviously impossible.
The only TV stations that can compete with Shanghai TV are Mangguo TV and Kyoto TV.
In the estimation of famous cars, Mangguo TV, as the former number one variety show channel, even if it could put aside its airs and extend an invitation to Su Chen, the price offered would definitely not be too high.
Yes, Mingche knows the temper of Mangguo TV very well. They are arrogant.
Therefore, what really poses a threat to Shanghai TV is the offer from Kyoto TV.
Based on Kyoto TV's previous praise for Su Chen's works, the other party will definitely offer a higher price than when Blue Mold TV won "I Love to Remember Lyrics".
In other words, the price offered by Kyoto TV may be only 395% of what he wants.
As for why Mingche was so sure that Kyoto TV would offer such a profit sharing ratio, it was based on an analysis of Kyoto TV's previous quotations.
In the past, Kyoto TV's offer for Su Chen's TV series was only slightly higher than that of other TV stations. In fact, it is not difficult to understand if you think about it. Everyone is trying to make money, and they definitely don't want to pay a high price if they can get it at a low price.
In the past, Kyoto TV took advantage of the psychological gap between major satellite TV stations and Su Chen's works and succeeded time and time again.
So this time, Mingche felt that he had grasped the weak spot of Kyoto TV.
The bid is just a little higher than that of Kyoto TV.
But now, as time goes by, Mingche is becoming less and less confident.
If Kyoto TV has already won the competition with other major TV stations, why is there still no news at this time?
Go ask Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun directly?
It seems that the friendship between the two parties has not reached that level yet.
Therefore, Mingche couldn't do such a thing.
Finally, in the midst of Mingche's anxiety, the time came to eleven-thirty in the afternoon.
At this point, Mingche's heart was completely chilled.
Because Mingche knew very well that at this point, everyone had gone off work and were going to eat, and there was still no news, then it was all over.
The bid of Shanghai TV has been surpassed by other satellite TV stations.
But why!
Ming Che really couldn't understand why he lost even though he had offered such a high price! Could it be that a satellite TV station had offered an even more incredible price?
…
A similar situation also appeared on Mangguo TV.
After Hong Tao sent the invitation to Su Chenxingyi in the morning, he felt mixed emotions.
To put it bluntly, as a "godfather"-level figure in mainland variety shows, Hong Tao actually bowed to a junior today.
This was an unavoidable blow to Hongtao.
Although he had given in verbally, he actually felt uncomfortable in his heart.
A planner actually wants to take away 60% of the program's profits. This is simply robbery!
At the same time, what made Hongtao even more unhappy was the price he offered to Su Chen.
Although he set the price himself, to be honest, he really couldn't stand such a profit-sharing ratio.
In the past, the TV station took the lion’s share, and the planners took the smaller share.
Now, the situation is completely reversed.
If the major TV stations had not already ruined the market, Hong Tao would not have made such an excessive compromise.
For Su Chen’s last variety show planning proposal, Blue Mold TV had already given away 60% of the profits.
In the following invitations, if the price offered by the major TV stations is lower than that of Blue Mold TV, Su Chen and Xingyi will definitely not agree.
So Hongtao had no choice but to hold his nose and make an offer that he himself could not accept.
Even after making such a big concession, is it still impossible to get Su Chen's variety show planning proposal?
Hongtao really wasn't sure.
Because he knew that Kyoto TV and Shanghai TV were also eyeing Su Chen's plan.
As for what price these two opponents will offer, Hong Tao is not sure.
This made Hongtao even more upset.
If we lose this bidding, we will lose both face and money.
You have already sent an invitation to Su Chen. Mangguo TV has already lost its dignity, and its face in the variety show industry has also been lost.
Alas, this Su Chen is really outrageous.
One person has ruined the entire variety show industry.
However, as time went by, Hongtao's mood became worse and worse.
When it was half past eleven in the afternoon, Hongtao felt completely depressed.
Because at this point, everyone knows without asking that Mangguo TV lost the bidding this time!
Judging from Su Chen's efficiency, there must have been results.
I haven’t received any notification yet, so it must be that other satellite TV stations have won.
But why…
I have already given away 60% of the show’s revenue!
Hongtao really couldn't accept it in his heart!
The satellite TV station has become Su Chen's employee, isn't that enough!
…
In sharp contrast to this is.
In the director's office of Kyoto TV.
Yu Junsheng waited for less than half an hour before he received the good news.
Actually, Yu Junsheng and Hu Wai are both very confident.
"Old Hu, sit down and have a cup of tea."
"Tell me about your next plan."
Hu Wai originally wanted to leave, but Yu Junsheng forced him to stay.
Hu Wai understood Yu Junsheng's intention very clearly, so he sat down tactfully.
After pouring himself a cup of tea, Hu Wai said dreamily:
"If nothing unexpected happens, Su Chen's variety show proposal will be ours."
"Next, I think we can make this variety show enter the top three in the ratings list, or even higher!"
Yu Junsheng nodded, then shook his head.
He nodded, indicating that he agreed with the first half of Hu Wai's sentence.
This time, Kyoto TV offered such an exaggerated price, it should be able to successfully get Su Chen's plan.
But next, is the goal of this variety show just to enter the top three in the ratings rankings?
Yu Junsheng was a little dissatisfied with this statement.
