After thinking about it, Xu Xin took a few steps closer and came to the middle of the steel structure construction and drainage construction.

The sound of cutting machines can be occasionally heard on one side, and the sound of pipe erection can be heard on the other.

Then he answered the phone:

"Hey, Director Shang, tell me."

It was a coincidence that as soon as he opened his mouth, the cutting machine started to make sparks and made a noise.

Shang Jing was stunned and asked with some confusion:

"Xiao Xu, where are you?"

"I'm at the construction site, at Shenmu."

"Construction site?...So late?"

"right."

Xu Xin responded and said loudly on purpose:

"Because of the Olympics, Director Shang, there's a bit of noise here. What's the matter?"

"Uh... well, it's like this. I cut out 20 episodes of "Wulin Gaiden" some time ago, and then I found eight sets and handed them over to see if they were interested. Then they gave me a reply today, one thousand

Six million, copyright buyout, I think it’s okay, how about it?”

“Buzz~~~~~”

The sound of the cutting machine rang again.

To be honest, a 10 million investment resulted in a 16 million buyout.

All things considered, Xu Xin's net profit was about four million.

Because there is also Shang Jing’s money and Ding Caishen’s script fee.

It has been paid before.

The copyright of "Wulin Gaiden" is currently in the hands of Headwind Entertainment.

To be honest, as far as TV dramas are concerned, although they are not big hits, the profits are not low.

But the problem is the copyright buyout.

Disposable.

Rather than the first broadcast or carousel.

If CCTV is only broadcasting for the first time, but the rotation rights are still in the hands of Headwind, the first broadcast will make a small profit, and the second and third rounds will be a big profit.

Then this TV series is a fairly long-term benefit.

At first glance it looks good, but in reality it is a loss.

Xu Xin also thinks there is nothing wrong with the first broadcast rights. The return of more than 40% is enough for any place. But buying out the full copyright, if you agree... is obviously not a smart move.

Director Shang's butt... is a bit crooked.

But he said before that he would not interfere in any matters related to Nifeng Entertainment.

What's more, since Liu Momo had informed him of his rejection in advance, he could only "tell the truth":

"Director Shang, although I am an investor, you don't have to talk to me about how much it will cost or what it is for. I'll let Sister Mo handle it. I don't care about this matter, you can just talk to her directly.

"

"Well……"

Shang Jing was stunned for a moment and then said:

"Aren't you a commission?"

"We are partners. The entrustment is just a normal procedure, but we have an agreement in this regard. I only give opinions on these things, but I have no decision-making power. I think the price is okay, but you have to find a signature or something.

She. The copyright is in her hands."

"..."

Shang Jing was immediately speechless.

After thinking for a while, he said:

"She disagrees."

"...Ah? Why?"

Xu Xin continued to pretend to be confused.

"Because I thought the price was too low, I told CCTV that they had already made plans. If Mimi hadn't suddenly come out with the Cannes news, CCTV might not have relented. Now if I relent, I want full copyright. Isn't it impossible?

, but we have to continue talking.”

"Well……"

After hearing this, Xu Xin actually understood what Liu Momo was targeting.

CCTV is now the well-deserved industry leader, and this cannot be faked. It is the well-deserved overlord in the TV drama industry.

They buy it, buy it and broadcast it, and use their huge audience base to promote advertising.

What you earn is advertising fees.

Moreover, the prices of TV series on CCTV are actually not that outrageous. After all... people have big budgets.

As the main revenue point, advertising fees have always been coveted by many film producers.

However... unless it is a drama of super high quality, usually CCTV will not relent in this regard.

That's money from someone's own pocket, why should I share it with you?

As for the price of this TV series, if it is the first broadcast, even Xu Xin can accept it. In fact, it can be seen that CCTV is quite fair. But you want to just take away the full copyright of 16 million?

Yes, it's not impossible. Let's talk about advertising fees.

Thinking of this, he felt for no reason...this sister's appetite is quite big sometimes.

Counting on Yang Mi makes me want to bite off a piece of CCTV advertising money...

It's probably unlikely.

But... again, on the one hand, Liu Momo asked him to refuse, and on the other hand, he did promise not to interfere with anything at Headwind Entertainment.

Therefore, following Shang Jing's words, Xu Xin could only say:

"Director Shang, I really can't talk to you about this matter. I don't understand this aspect... not to mention I don't have time to think about it. If you don't believe me, ask Director Zhang, what I am doing now is of great significance to the Olympic Games."

How important it is. So...I've been very busy recently, not to shirk you, but I really don't have the time to worry about these things. How much to sell or what, I can only say that you don't have any pressure, okay? But

I can't control how to operate these specifically, and I don't have time to control them. The construction site here is still running 24 hours a day."

The words fell...

"Sizzsssssssssss..."

"Dong, dong, dong..."

The sound of pipes and cutting machines was heard.

It's getting noisier.

It sounded irritating to Shang Jing's ears, let alone Xu Xin.

So, he said logically:

"This is my opinion. Just talk to Sister Mo, okay? It's too noisy here. Just talk to Sister Mo and tell me when the time comes. Okay? I'll hang up now.

"

"That's...ok...ok, let's talk about it then, Xiao Xu, you can be busy, um."

The phone hangs up.

Xu Xin quickly exited this noisy area.

He rubbed his ears and sent Liu Momo a message:

"I told him, you two talk, I don't care about it, thank you for your hard work."

After sending the message, he put the phone in his pocket and ignored it.

There's really nothing you can do about it.

There's still a lot going on here.

…

The first round of Cannes nominees will be announced on April 15th.

Then three days later on the 18th, the list for the second round was announced.
