Homecoming of Rebirth

Qi Lei was so moved, "Dong Xiao, this...isn't it good?"

Dong Beiguo was very righteous, "Don't worry! Those undergraduates and masters in the art department and directing department are all newbies. Can you, Mr. Dong, cheat you? They must be doctoral students, or above the supervisor."

Qi Lei, "This..."

Dong Beiguo, "You are from Beiguang. Go out and do something. Who will support Beiguang if you don't support it? That's it!"

Qi Lei was really touched, "That's fine, I won't be polite to you! Don't worry, you won't treat your own people badly when you come here."

Dong Beiguo, "No, it's not easy for you, don't waste money!"

Qi Lei, "That won't work, one size fits one size!"

Dong Beiguo, "If you don't use it, then don't use it!"

Qi Lei, "..."

Dong Beiguo, "If I'm really sorry, why don't you sign up for a performing arts company or a production company?"

"Assuming you're partnering with Beiguang, just give Beiguang a symbolic share!"

Qi Lei, "How much?"

Dong Beiguo became anxious, "You child, is Uncle Dong talking about business with you? We're talking about favors! If that's the case, just a symbolic 20% will do!"

Qi Lei pondered for a while, "It's a bit much."

Dong Beiguo: "15%?"

Qi Lei, "Hi! I'm not hypocritical about this share. Let me tell you the truth, this matter is not yet certain!"

Dong Beiguo was immediately dumbfounded, "Why, why are you not sure yet? What's wrong? You don't want to take your alma mater to play, do you?"

"No! Absolutely not!" Qi Lei swore.

After hesitating again and again, "Let's put it this way, I just came up with it on the spur of the moment. Didn't Sanshi Company run out of money again? That's why I wanted to put on a variety show to test the waters. We don't know if it will make money or not."

Dong Beiguo cursed in his heart, you little bastard, are you still fooling me?Sanshi Company has no money, so aren't you just making money?

Qi Lei, "It's really a temporary idea, let alone a complete plan now, I don't even know where the company is located, and I don't even have an office location!"

Suddenly he was very embarrassed, "Dong Xiao, why don't we talk about it later?" He vowed, "When I build the company, at least I have to choose a good place? Let's talk about it later!"

When Dong Beiguo heard this, he said, "You're so small, are you trying to abandon me?"

Immediately decided, "Don't look for a place, we can't accommodate you in a place as big as Beiguang? The company is located in Beiguang, we have plenty of space!"

After thinking about it, "There are too many independent institutions in Beiguang, so you just say, are you with the publishing house? Or with the Oral History Research Center?"

"Both buildings have vacant lots!"

Just finished speaking, "Forget it! The newly built TV building, I will give you a vacant floor, just pay some rent and you will get it! It happens to be with the young eagle class, it is convenient!"

After Qi Lei thought about it, he said naively, "Is that the case?"

Dong Beiguo struck while the iron was hot, "Isn't that right? That's the deal?"

Qi Lei, "Don't, don't, don't, it's not just a phone call between us."

Dong Beiguo, "What's wrong?"

Qi Lei, "Even if the company has an office, it needs equipment for shooting equipment, post-editing, and special effects production!"

He said anxiously: "Principal, don't worry! I have already contacted foreign equipment manufacturers, and it is estimated that within a year or so, these equipment will be in place."

Dong Beiguo was furious, "Are you stupid?" He yelled with his eyes wide open, "Is there anything we want in Beiguang? Do we still need to buy it? Aren't they all ready-made?"

Qi Lei, "Isn't that suitable? I'm a private company, using the school's resources?"

Dong Beiguo, "Isn't it suitable for you to form a joint venture with Beiguang?"

Qi Lei was silent, obviously a little tempted, but in the end, "It's still not good!"

Dong Beiguo, "What's wrong with you?"

Qi Lei, "I don't have a filming permit! The approval procedures and qualifications for this thing are troublesome, and I won't be able to get it in a while."

Dong Beiguo, "Northern, Guangzhou, Yes!"

"Publishing house, oral history center, TV production center, emergency news event center, you just say, who do you want to use?"

Qi Lei, "That's no problem."

Dong Beiguo, "No reason?"

Qi Lei, "No more! It's agreed, 15%!"

Dong Beiguo, "Not 20%?"

Qi Lei, "Then I'll think about it again."

Dong Beiguo: "15%! No dispute, 15 is 15!"

Putting down the phone, Dong Beiguo laughed for a long time, this business was done, it was called a decisive decision!Basically equal to 15% of Bailai.

Qi Lei is also thinking about it, personnel, venues, equipment, permits... one-stop service!

Is 15% too dark?

well!This damn thief doesn't leave empty space!

……

※※※

Then there is the question of the shooting location.It is necessary to find a suitable residential building in Enshi for renovation.

Moreover, Qi Lei's request is that the machine will be started in August.

Less than a month before and after, it can be said that the time is very tight.However, there are ways to cope with tight schedules.

Qi Guodong is responsible for the registration of the company.

Zhou Tao is in charge of contacting Zhang Guorong and Sister Mei's agency.

Here, Uncle Geng is free and has nothing to do, "Let me run for you!"

So, Uncle Geng set off for Enshi.

Departing from Harbin City, he brought Cunfu Ning with him. This guy's screenwriting skills are still very good.

What's more, after the on-the-spot investigation, he had to discuss the programming of the program with the writers under the banyan tree.

The two flew to the capital first, and picked up a design team, as well as an art professor from Beiguang.

Landed in Wuhan and met with representatives of the filming team from Hong Kong.

When everyone arrived in Enshi, the cadres in charge of publicity in the ES city government had preliminarily screened all the suitable houses for shooting, and prepared relevant materials.

On the way to the shooting location, the big team is already choosing which residential house is more suitable for shooting.

It's not that Qi Lei used the relationship, it's purely a win-win interaction.

how to say?

First of all, let alone this era, even in later generations, many Chinese people may not know what is so special about Enshi.

Why did Qi Lei keep applauding when he heard that the person he was looking for was in Enshi?

Because Enshi has the longest and most beautiful canyon landscape in the world - Enshi Grand Canyon.

This is a landscape miracle as famous as the Grand Canyon of Colorado.It combines the magnificence and majesty of Colorado, and is more beautiful and magnificent than Colorado.

And such a beautiful scenery was not known to the world until the visit of the Sino-French joint expedition in 2004, and it has been hidden among the mountains before.

But here comes the problem. Of course the Enshi people themselves know that they have such a treasure.

Moreover, in this era when all people are engaged in the economy, and the real estate industry has not yet risen, tourism is the development direction that almost every region dreams of.

However, most places suffer from inexperience and lack of publicity channels.Then……

Then Sanshi Company directly contacted the local government of Enshi, and heard from here, what is the situation?

The very rich and well-known Sanshi Company is going to come to Enshi to film and set up an outdoor variety show with Zhang Guorong and Mei Mei?And the blessing of Qi Lei, a popular rich man?

Moreover, can you also focus on promoting the beautiful landscape of Enshi in the program?

Can the local government not laugh out loud?

Let's put it this way, let alone the level of Sanshi Company, let alone the superstar lineup.

In this day and age, even a third-rate boss said that if you invest in a small place, the treatment will be god-like.

It is not an exaggeration to say that you are serving carefully, no matter how excessive the request is, it is possible to agree to you.

So, not to mention helping to find a suitable residential house, I made a statement at that time, and the whole process was given the green light, as long as Sanshi Company is willing to come and promote our kindness.

So, Enshi Tujia Autonomous Prefecture, Banqiao Town, and Mufu Village.

This is the filming location selected by Sanshi Company, which house do you like?There is no need for Sanshi Company to come forward to negotiate, the local government will do the work, make a decision on the spot, and get it done on the spot.

Then, the design team redesigned the interior and exterior decoration, material access, etc., and even shooting issues such as camera positions began to work together.

The production and venue have all been resolved, and finally there is the issue of distribution.

In other words, someone has to broadcast it when it is filmed!

At this time, President Dong Da was used again, and Beiguang's contacts were Qi Lei's contacts.

Dong Beiguo also worked hard to make money, and contacted more than a dozen local TV stations at once.

However, the effect is not very good.

There are three main reasons:

First, in this era, there is no precedent for independently produced variety shows, and everyone dare not do them.

Everyone only knows that many foreign TV stations will buy variety show sources from independent companies, but this is not the case at all for domestic variety shows.Generally, it is still produced and broadcast by the TV station itself.

A variety show produced by a company suddenly appeared, and I didn't know what to do.

Second, the subject matter.

"Longing for Life"?

Or go to the countryside to shoot?

Although there are blessings from the two superstars Zhang Guorong and Sister Mei, this thing is clear to anyone with a discerning eye. Is this the life you yearn for?Isn't it in line with the public's aesthetics?

Neither look good.

The third and most important reason is that they cannot afford it.

Sanshi Company gave a shooting budget of nearly 3000 million for one season.

3000 million! 2001 ah!

Your Sanshi Company has a lot of money and wealth, but the local satellite TV can't do it!

In this era, except for Mango TV, the annual production budget of TV stations is less than 3000 million.

It's too expensive, and the price is a bit beyond affordability.

In the end, only one of the dozen or so TV stations was interested, and that was Mango TV.

Moreover, he also played a chicken thief.

Mango TV is aimed at the two superstars Leslie Cheung and Sister Mei.

The other party did a market analysis: If you go to the countryside, the subject matter is definitely not pleasing.However, due to the popularity of Zhang Guorong and Mei Mei, the audience may ignore the incompatibility of the subject matter for a short time.

Therefore, Mango Channel predicts that this show will be popular for at least one season.

Moreover, they thought very well, highlighting the star effect in the early publicity, deliberately covering up the flaws in the theme, at least they can fool a wave of advertisers.

If the operation is good, the advertising revenue will not be low, and the cost can probably be recovered.

But it is enough to recover the cost!

What about Mango Terrace?The abacus was crackling, people didn't expect to make any money from this program.

However, Hong Kong and Taiwan superstars participated in mainland variety shows, and the first one to land on Mango Channel, this boo head has boosted the overall value of Mango Channel, but it only earns but not loses.

Therefore, after reading the investment prospectus of "Longing for Life", Mango TV offered Sanshi a quotation and signed a one-season contract, 800 million yuan.

That's right, it was 200 million lower than the estimated production cost.

However, this offer is not a random offer, it is learned.
