Chapter 442 Post-production completed, film viewing party held

Author: Jianzoufeng

As the time gets closer to New Year's Day, the post-production of "Nirvana in Fire" has come to an end.

The first cut version has been completed, and Ark Culture has invited major TV stations and video platforms to participate in the viewing party as planned.

Because this time TV stations and video platforms are determined to win "Nirvana in Fire".

Therefore, as soon as Ark Culture released the news about the film screening, major TV stations and video platforms immediately contacted them and wanted to attend the film screening as soon as possible, and they did not want to delay for a day.

Which TV station doesn't want to buy a drama?

If "Nirvana in Fire" is another record-breaking drama at the level of "Cyclone", no matter how much money you spend, you won't lose.

Of course, the leaders of major TV stations are still rational.

Although during the post-production period of "Nirvana in Fire", the directors and deputy directors of various major TV stations began to invite Fang Xing to tea and dinner, but after seeing the finished film, no TV station made the decision to sign the contract.

After all, with the amount of investment in "Nirvana in Fire", the premiere rights of this drama must exceed 100 million.

Even if the majors have confidence in Ark Culture, they will not make a decision to sign the film before seeing the finished film.

Moreover, the competition is very fierce now, and you can no longer buy it by just asking the price.

"Boss, Donghai TV, Xiangjiang TV, Jiangnan TV, and Kyoto TV all want to attend the movie viewing party as soon as possible. I thought it would be inappropriate to arrange for them to watch the movie together." Qiao Yinghong received invitations from various satellite TVs.

It's a bit difficult to make a reservation for the movie theater.

Fang Xing thought about it and asked, "With so many TV stations, how many people will attend the movie viewing party in total?"

Qiao Yinghong looked at the data and replied: "Most of the reservation information for movie viewings sent by TV stations states the approximate number of people. For those that do not, the average number is calculated. In total, each of the seven TV stations has approximately

Scale of twenty people.”

"There are indeed a lot of people. Can't we let them attend the movie viewing party separately for a few days?" Fang Xing asked.

"Xiangjiang Satellite TV and Donghai Satellite TV, the ones with stronger intentions, all had their deputy directors calling me and saying that they must attend the film screening on the first day." Qiao Yinghong explained with her hands.

The competition among major provincial satellite TV stations is very fierce.

Moreover, in this kind of industry circle, it is impossible to keep a film purchase plan like this secret.

Therefore, all major TV stations know that their competitors want "Nirvana in Fire".

However, the subtlety of this matter is that these TV stations cannot make an immediate decision before seeing the finished film.

In this case, if you attend the viewing meeting as soon as possible, after the review team determines the quality of the series, a high-level meeting can make the decision immediately.

This means that the competition in "Nirvana in Fire" has reached a critical moment, which may only take a day or two.

I attended the movie viewing party a few days later, when the day lilies were cold.

Even if Ark Culture promises that all TV stations will participate in the viewing sessions before selling the film, the TV stations that watch it first will have a first-mover advantage.

Therefore, major TV stations still hope to attend the screening on the first day.

At this time, it depends on who has a strong relationship with Ark Culture.

…

Of course, from Fang Xing's point of view, the TV series is made with the intention of making money.

What's more, there is a 2 billion project that requires continued investment of funds.

Therefore, for the drama "Nirvana in Fire", the more money it makes, the better.

At this time, competition among TV stations can be promoted, which can raise the price of the first broadcast rights.

This strategy is the most common method in business.

When Qiao Yinghong had a meeting with her team before, she discussed the plan for the film viewing party and suggested:

"I had a meeting with the operations department and discussed it, and we came up with an idea. We could find a theater and book a screening room that can accommodate 200 people, so that all the TV stations participating in the movie viewing party can watch it together."

From a commercial perspective, this proposal can greatly increase the competitive pressure on major TV stations.

All TV stations are watching the finished film of "Nirvana in Fire" in the same screening room. In this environment where big eyes are staring at small eyes, every move may be noticed by competitors.

After Fang Xing listened, he shook his head and said, "It's not good to arrange it in a screening room. This approach is too damaging.

"Moreover, the movie viewing will last at least several days. If people from different TV stations are in the same space, the atmosphere will be very awkward.

"Besides, when watching the film, there will definitely be discussions within the TV station. In this environment, I will worry about being overheard by other TV stations."

Qiao Yinghong nodded in agreement: "I also think this method is a bit damaging. I also thought about raising it for the boss's reference.

"So many TV stations want to attend the screening on the first day. There must be no venue in the company to accommodate so many people."

Fang Xing suddenly thought of something and said, "I think it's a good idea to rent a movie theater to hold a movie screening. However, you can't just rent one screening room, you have to own a TV station and one screening room."

Qiao Yinghong frowned and said: "I'm afraid this will be very troublesome to negotiate, especially for movie theaters in popular commercial centers, which have to coordinate with theater chains."

Fang Xing smiled and said: "Do you still remember that the cinema in the commercial center of Ningyun Cultural Industrial Park has just been built and has not been officially put into operation yet.

"You go talk to the manager of the industrial park and cinema, and we can book a movie viewing session in the cinema before it officially opens."

Qiao Yinghong's eyes suddenly lit up and she praised: "The boss is very considerate. The movie theater in Ningyun Industrial Park has a good environment and it hasn't opened yet. The price is very cheap. I will contact you right now."

…

a week later.

Film review teams from various major TV stations gathered from all over the country to Ningyun Cultural Industrial Park.

The competent authorities of the Cultural Industrial Park also sent people over to coordinate the work.

This time, Ark Culture has attracted major TV stations. For Ningyun Cultural Industrial Park, this is an important task that can improve the reputation of the industrial park.

Therefore, the Ningyun District Committee was very cooperative and even sent a bus to the airport to pick up and drop off teams from major TV stations.

Especially when Jiang Minghe, deputy director of Xiangjiang Satellite TV, personally led the team over, Liu Jian'an, Ningyun's top leader, was still there to greet him at the entrance of the industrial park, and then took Jiang Minghe to visit the industrial park.

After walking around the industrial park, Liu Jianan also wanted to invite Jiang Minghe to sit in the area.

Jiang Minghe looked at his watch and said, "No, it's almost time for the movie viewing. I'm here this time, but I have important work."

"That's it. Let's wait until the film viewing session is over. If you encounter anything in the industrial park these days, you can come to me and I will find someone to solve it for you." Liu Jian'an laughed and made a promise.

Jiang Minghe said with a smile: "Ningyun is developing really well, and there is also a unicorn cultural enterprise like Ark Culture, which has attracted TV stations across the country this time."

In fact, Ningyun and Xiangjiang had fought over the Ark culture before.

At the beginning, Ark Culture’s headquarters building project was delayed in getting approval.

At that time, Xiangjiang City had extended an olive branch and invited Ark Culture to settle in Xiangjiang.

Of course, this incident has passed and will not affect the relationship between the two regions.

Liu Jian'an also gave enough face this time and treated Ark Culture's film viewing party as an important job.

"Wherever I am, I'm in my position and I'm just planning my own affairs."

…

The cinema in the central square of Ningyun Cultural Industrial Park is Starlight Cinema invested by Starlight Group.

Since the Starlight Cinema in the industrial park has not yet officially opened for business, the cinema currently has only one manager leading a team to do the preliminary work.

The cinema does not have enough manpower to accommodate movie viewing groups from major TV stations.

However, this is not a problem.

Ark Culture sent someone over to arrange this film viewing meeting.

Jiang Minghe walked into Starlight Cinema.

Qiao Yinghong had sharp eyes and recognized him at a glance. She immediately went up to him and said, "Welcome Director Jiang, welcome Director Jiang, and the teachers of Xiangjiang Satellite TV.

"This film screening was held in a hurry, and I apologize for any negligence."

Jiang Minghe chuckled and said: "You can still create such a big battle in such a hurry. It seems that "Nirvana in Fire" will sell for a sky-high price this time."

"Director Jiang has repeatedly emphasized that we must attend the film viewing party as soon as possible. We also thought of this method after thinking a lot. Please come here." Qiao Yinghong personally led Xiangjiang Satellite TV's film viewing team to the second floor and led them all the way to the second screening room.

hall.

Although the number of auditorium No. 2 is "2", it is indeed the first one on the right.

The layout of this Starlight Cinema has a screening room on the second floor. After passing the ticket check-in area, the odd-numbered screening rooms are on the left and the even-numbered screening rooms are on the right.

Therefore, auditorium "2" is the first one on the right.

Jiang Minghe looked back at the opposite corner and asked seemingly unintentionally: "Which TV station is assigned to Screening Room 1?"

Qiao Yinghong laughed loudly and said: "No. 2 is the biggest and best, the sound is also the best, and the seats also have massage functions. Come on, come on, Xiao Liu will bring two more pieces of water."

After the Xiangjiang Satellite TV viewing group entered the screening room, Jiang Minghe asked: "Are you Mr. Fang in the cinema?"

"Mr. Fang is still working on the last episode of "Nirvana in Fire" and took the singer to Songshi Records to record today." Qiao Yinghong replied.

Jiang Minghe frowned and asked, "Then will he come over today?"

"Here, Mr. Fang said he would come over after finishing his work. I will definitely come over in the afternoon." Qiao Yinghong replied.
