Chapter 134 Different ways of cooperation between different people
The movement at station D was really fast, so fast that even Xu Qing was surprised.
Just one day later, Huang Jian called, confirmed the cooperation matters, and asked Xu Qing to bring someone over to sign the contract.
The final investment amount was also informed to Xu Qing.
"The Beginning" has a total investment of 30 million, with Station D contributing 25 million to be responsible for production and promotion, and Xu Qing investing 5 million to be responsible for the script, heroine, and producer.
The total investment in "Love Apartment" is also 30 million, with Station D fully responsible for production and distribution. Xu Qing provided the script, accounting for 8% of the revenue, but no money for the script was given.
Another point is that if "Love Apartment" is filmed for a second season, Xu Qing's script will be given priority to Station D. Station D promises to allow Xu Qing's investment income to be no more than 50% for the co-production.
This can be regarded as a gesture of goodwill from Station D to Xu Qing. Xu Qing is very satisfied with Station D’s attitude.
It seems that not all companies in this world are ugly, at least Station D is quite happy.
Does Xu Qing have 5 million?
It's true that "Send to the Moon", which I wrote for E11 before, is sold for free on Qingyin. It costs 2 yuan for members and 4 yuan for non-members. You don't need an account when buying it. You can buy it even if you log in without an account. This is for
As a result of this operation, the sales volume has now reached more than 7 million people.
In other words, the revenue of "Send to the Bright Moon" is currently at least more than 14 million.
E11 fans, there are many people who spend 200 yuan to buy one a hundred times.
No wonder everyone wants to play with traffic. You can earn so much in a short period of time. Who doesn’t want to play?
But there is also a disadvantage, that is, if you become a member, you have to pay to buy it before you can listen to it, which has caused dissatisfaction among many users, who all think that Yinsha looks too ugly.
Xu Qing also thinks so. This is not a long-term way to make money. Fans may spend the two yuan for their idols, but passers-by will not. If you want to expand your base, you must have the support of passers-by. How many fans are there?
At least the two songs that Xu Qing gave to Yi Yunyi are not intended to be charged for listening, but membership is required to download them. This is normal, and they will be free to download in a few years.
Xu Qing asked Lisa for a share of the profits because Xingtang Culture had no money.
Lisa didn't say anything when she found out. Q Sound is her own property, and other people's copyright fees may be paid annually. Yinsha wants to pay Q Sound every month, but she also has to give face to Q Sound.
However, Lisa did not break this rule. Instead, she took out more than 5 million from her pocket and advanced it to Xu Qing without going to Yinsha's account. She had a lot of pocket money.
After Xu Qing got the money, he expressed his gratitude to Lisa for this action, but he did not take advantage of Lisa. After knowing that Lisa paid for it herself, Xu Qing said that 5% of the subsequent profits would be given to Lisa as interest.
Lisa didn't say anything about it.
With these 5 million, Xu Qing directly injected capital into the company. The initial investment must be made in the name of the company. Otherwise, Xu Qing will always make money personally and the company will never develop.
After the capital injection, the shares were of course re-allocated. Yuan Huhu's original 10% stake was now 8%. Then Yuan Huhu took out another 2 million and injected capital into the company.
So her shares returned to 10%.
This is Yuan Huhu, and others can exchange less than 2% of the shares for 2 million in Xu Qing.
Xu Qing's company now has eight million working capital in its books, plus the broker's commission of more than one million left by Xu Qing, which is enough to invest in some small projects.
After this time, Xu Qing will try to get an endorsement for Hu Xin. With the experience of being a heroine in TV series, getting an endorsement shouldn't be a big problem.
Hu Xin's salary for playing "The Wind in Luoyang" was not high, only 300,000, which was still too little income.
One day later, Xu Qing took Hu Xin to station D to sign the contract.
There are three contracts in total, one is Hu Xin's initial female lead contract, and Hu Xin's remuneration price is 1 million.
For a 15-episode drama, plus Hu Xin’s coffee spot, the price is very favorable.
In order to be able to play a heroine, many actors are willing to give up money and body, not to mention the salary.
The second one is the investment contract.
The third one is the sharing contract of the love apartment.
After signing the contract, both parties were very happy, and Hu Xin was even more excited. Will she be the heroine soon?
She had read the first script and she liked the role of Li Shiqing very much.
After Huang Jian put away the contract, he said to Xu Qing: "Qingzi, we will start projects for these two dramas at the same time and shoot them at the same time. After the initial broadcast is completed, we will take over the love apartment. When the time comes, when the casting time comes, will you come over to give us advice?"
Qingzi was the name Xu Qing asked Huang Jian to call him after Xu Qing and Huang Jian chatted last time in order to get closer to each other. It was always Mr. Xu’s fault.
Huang Jian is nearly ten years older than Xu Qing, so it makes sense to call him Qingzi.
And Huang Jian also became Brother Huang in Xu Qing's mouth.
"Is it appropriate for me to come?" Xu Qing said with a smile. He said at the beginning that he would not interfere in the casting.
"Why is it inappropriate? You wrote the script. What if you don't choose the actors?" Huang Jian has no intention of asking for casting rights. Station D is a video website and does not have its own artists. He only cares about good content and nothing else.
The stuff doesn't matter.
"Brother Huang, do you have any favorite actors? I can advise them on which role they are suitable for."
"No, if so, why should I ask you to serve as a consultant? It's already settled, do you have anyone to recommend?" Huang Jian's words were sincere.
"For the roles in "The Beginning", we need to find some actors who are not popular but have good acting skills. The roles of Xiao Heyun and Lu Di are a bit troublesome. Lu Di needs to have the flavor of a middle-aged boy. You can see if there are any suitable men.
UP, if your image is passable, just act in your true colors. For Xiao Heyun, find a young actor with decent acting skills. There should be many of them. Don't look for popular stars, they won't be able to support you.
"Love Apartment" is even simpler, just go to the drama school and choose those who are about to graduate. As long as their acting skills and image are passable and they can be open, it's fine. Moreover, they are cheap. When the time comes, our D station can still sign them." Xu
Qing proposed.
"We have no idea of forming an artist department for the time being." Huang Jian shook his head. Compared with other film and television companies, most of the investments are made by their own actors.
Station D cares more about freshness. If one movie is shot with the same actors, and the next movie is shot with the same actors, this can easily cause the audience to feel aesthetic fatigue.
At the same time, the overall tone of D station also determines that they are not enthusiastic about signing artists. After all, there are so many excellent UP owners in D station, and they have never recruited outstanding UP owners to their own company.
What they want to build is a content ecological platform, allowing other companies to help them cultivate excellent content producers. They all sign in to their own company to figure out what's going on, and they have to provide resources. This is not just content distribution.
You must have an attitude towards content distribution.
"How about you sign the actors in iPartment, and we might have a second and third season in the future?" Huang Jian suddenly suggested.
"Should I sign?" Xu Qing said in surprise, then waved his hand, "If you don't sign, the company can't afford it."
"Then what if they stop performing in the future?"
"Just sign a contract that you must act in. They will accept it, as long as the conditions we give are suitable." Xu Qing said.
"We'll see when the time comes. If it doesn't work out, our station D will sign a several-year contract with them and put it under your company's management. We'll share the profits between us.
If we release one season a year, the contract will expire when the filming is almost done." Huang Jian suggested.
"It's not impossible." Xu Qing once again realized Huang Jian's reality.
"I just like to work with a cheerful person like you. I'll let you know when our crew is ready, and you can come over and choose the actors for us." Huang Jian said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll come over at any time." Xu Qing also laughed. He also wanted to say to Huang Jian, I also like to cooperate with a cheerful person like you. Don't make so many twists and turns. We can make more money together.
Okay, is it fun to trick each other?
After saying these words, Xu Qing took Hu Xin and turned to leave. Although Huang Jian said he wanted to hold a celebration banquet, Xu Qing refused. Socializing was too troublesome, and Huang Jian was not the kind of person who needed socializing.
Just push it if you can, everyone is very busy.
When he walked to the door, Huang Jian suddenly stopped Xu Qing: "Qingzi, these two songs by Yi Yunyi are here. I'll help you push them on the home page tonight."
