Chapter 309 "Great Qin Empire" in Progress
The large-scale overhead historical TV series "The Great Qin Empire", jointly produced by Yuancheng Film and Television and Songcai Studio, can finally be finalized after a production cycle of nearly two years.

For this TV series, Shangjing TV Station really wants to exclusively buy out the first round of broadcasting rights.

Shangjing, a restaurant somewhere.

Qi Yuan, the screenwriter of "The Great Qin Empire", Song Cai, the director, Qin An, who played Shang Yang, Li Dasui, who played Qin Xiaogong, and Li Pingping, director of the drama purchase department of Shangjing TV, were eating hot pot together.

Li Pingping raised his wine glass, looked at Qi Yuan and the others, and said, "Director Song and Director Qi are a perfect match! We must be at ease! Come, let's have a drink together."

The five raised their glasses together.

Song Cai said: "The quality of our drama is absolutely guaranteed. What's more, we still have Qin An and top actors like Da Sui, and this is the first episode of Director Qi's "5000 Years" series." A film and television work! This gimmick is big enough!"

Li Pingping nodded and said with a smile: "I have no problem with the drama itself, but our price is indeed a bit too expensive. Ten million yuan for an episode is a bit unbearable."

Qi Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Li, our production cost is around 45 million. There are [-] episodes in total, do the math."

What Qi Yuan said was honest.

Both he and Song Cai strived for excellence in the Great Qin Empire.

Qi Yuan himself needless to say, this is his first film and television work in the "5000 Years" series.

Therefore, the quality of the year, Fuhuadao must be full.

Many clothing details were decided by him himself.

As for Song Cai, when he was filming there was no water.

Since Qi Yuan, the employer, said that the money can be spent freely.

Then he naturally strives for perfection!

The combination of the two makes the shooting cost of "The Great Qin Empire" very high.

But there is no doubt that the quality of the TV series is very high!
Li Pingping said with a half-smile: "Boss Qi, Director Song, I also watched the samples. As for your cost, only you know."

As he spoke, Li Pingping's eyes fell on Qin An who was on the side.

He said: "Teacher Qin An, his reputation was not very good back then. He came to be the leading actor... Ah, I have no other intentions. This public opinion will be very big. Even, can our drama be broadcast smoothly? It’s still unknown.”

Qin An's face suddenly darkened.

At that time, he and his ex-wife Jiang Xiaowen agreed to divorce.

As a result, when he turned around, he was slapped with the name of cheating by the other party.

Back then the internet was not developed enough.

When the other party bought a lot of sailors, the entire public opinion environment was one-sided.

This made Qin An's image, in the eyes of the public, that of the cheating man.

Qi Yuan answered, "We also know what happened to Brother Qin. It's all dirty water splashed by his ex-wife."

Li Pingping shook his head and said: "The public don't think so! We will take a lot of risks if we use inferior artists. How about this, I won't take advantage of Director Qi and Song, how about it, tomorrow When the auction is called, we will quote 800 million for an episode, and I went to Beijing TV to ask for it. But, 50 of which, haha.”

Li Pingping wants to get kickbacks.

Song Cai sneered when he heard this.

Li Dasui on the side said: "Brother Li, I don't know much about TV stations buying dramas, but the quality of our dramas is really very high!"

"If you say you are tall, is it tall? If you say tall, is there any use for it?" Li Pingping said mercilessly.

Qi Yuan laughed, and said: "We still can't be righteous in business, Mr. Da Sui is my elder, what you said is a bit too much!"

Having said that, everyone has been unable to agree.

Qi Yuan and the others got up and left directly.

Li Pingping sat on a chair, watching the backs of Qi Yuan and the others leaving.

How long has he been in the position of drama director of Shangjing TV station?

There are not a hundred TV dramas he handles every year, but there are also eighty.

Judging from the clips he saw, the drama "The Great Qin Empire" was indeed of high quality.

But without getting the full film, no one dared to say that this film would definitely be popular.

Sitting in this position, as a drama purchase director of a first-line satellite TV, his opinion on a drama is very important.

In the past, he basically wouldn't bring up the matter of kickbacks.

Because those film and television drama production companies themselves understand it.

But this time it's different.

I've been drinking this wine for more than half an hour, why do Qi Yuan and Song Cai look like they don't understand anything?
Funny?

To play?
Did you come here?

This is Li Pingping's most sincere thought.

After drinking all the wine in his hand, Li Pingping left the private room.

Then he was stopped by the waiter.

"Hi sir, you have spent a total of 7689 yuan."

"Huh? The person who left just now didn't pay?"

"Excuse me sir, they said you would pay."

Li Pingping touched his withered face, his face was livid.

……

the next day.

A five-star hotel somewhere in Beijing.

The press conference of "The Great Qin Empire" was held as scheduled.

Nearly 100 media outlets were present, and it was very lively.

Song Cai led the main creators of the crew and talked freely on the stage.

Everyone chatted about the fun of the plot and the difficulties of filming.

The scene is relaxed and happy.

At this time.

A female reporter wearing glasses stood up and asked with a microphone: "Excuse me, director Song Cai. Our actor Qin An once divorced because of cheating. Why do we still use such an actor? Is it true that our entertainment Circle, can't find a second actor suitable for this role?"

The reporter's words immediately lowered the atmosphere at the scene to freezing point.

The crew had already guessed that there would be a reporter looking for trouble, and had already prepared for it.

Qin An held up the microphone and walked out: "My ex-wife Jiang Xiaowen and I, we divorced by agreement, there is no such thing as cheating, this reporter please pay attention to your words."

After the interview session was over, it was time for major TV stations to compete for the show.

After the reporter made such a fuss just now, the people in charge of the major TV stations were all whispering.

Li Pingping and his two assistants were talking with the heads of Xidu TV, Zhejiang Satellite TV, etc.

"Indeed. Although there seems to be no news about Stone Hammer, in the final analysis, in the public's impression, he is a low-quality entertainer!"

"In the past many years, Qin An didn't have any film and television resources. When he came out suddenly this time, he played an important role in such a big production. I heard that he was still the second male lead. This drama...may not be as good as they advertised. Is it taken seriously?"

"Later, let's lower the price together, don't make the price too high."

"It's natural. The production cost they announced was 4 million yuan. Who knows how much it actually cost? We can't take advantage of this."

Qi Yuan stood at the side, everyone's whispers fell into his ears from time to time.
