However, although no one disclosed the specific content of the program, the conversation about the advertising revenue sharing that Ye Ming had with the purchasing managers of major TV stations at the copyright negotiation meeting was exposed. For a while, It attracted the attention of countless people again!
"I'll go! You actually want to share advertising with the TV station? Ye Ming really dares to think about it!"
"Yeah! So far, I haven't heard of any production company that dares to do this!"
"It seems that he is very confident in his program! Otherwise, he would not dare to mention it like this!"
"Advertising revenue has always been regarded as forbidden by television stations, so how could they allow others to taint it? He is just totally out of his mind!"
Just as netizens were talking enthusiastically, someone revealed the specific gambling agreement! As soon as this gambling agreement was exposed, it instantly caused an uproar on the entire Internet!
"According to a senior executive at Xiangnan TV who did not want to be named, the contract signed by the TV station and Xingcan was not a fixed amount of advertising revenue, but a gambling contract!"
"After the program is broadcast, if the national average ratings are below 1 point, the TV station will not need to pay any fees, and all production costs will be borne by Xingcan Company!"
"If the average ratings reaches 1 point, then Xingcan Entertainment will get 20% of the program's advertising revenue."
"If the average ratings reach 2 points, Xingcan Entertainment will receive 40% of the advertising revenue."
"If it reaches 3 points, Xingcan Entertainment can get 70%!"
Faced with this detailed gambling agreement, Qi Luyuan was stunned!
"Is this Ye Ming crazy?"
Someone said bluntly, "Such a gambling agreement is clearly asking for death!"
One person directly sarcastically said: "Do you really regard the entertainment industry as your own gold mine?"
"After all, I am still young and energetic, and I don't know how high the sky is!"
Faced with the sarcasm of these people, Ye Ming's followers quit and immediately quarreled with them. "
You can't do it, even our Qiu Shuxiao can't do it!"
"That's it! A bunch of guys who only know how to talk Bibi! If you can't do it yourself, don't yell!"
“Our Highness Ming says it’s okay, then it will be okay!”
"Haha! A bunch of pinkeyes!"
The two sides were quarreling over whether Ye Ming could succeed, and several smart TV stations took the opportunity to invite industry authorities to their own talk shows to discuss the gambling agreement between Ye Ming and Shonan TV.
On a famous talk show "Venus Show" on Shanghai TV station, Wang Ming, a senior who has been working in the traditional festival production industry for 20 years, gave an F-rated account of the quick program of "I Suffer from Ge Feng":
"The kings and queens that the program team has exposed now have retired for many years, but their market prices are there. Each person's appearance fee is at least 500,000 yuan per show. The seven singers combined will shoot one episode. The acting fee is more than 5 million, plus the labor cost of the crew, the cost of each episode is conservatively estimated at 6 to 7 million. According to the information from the Copyright Office, there are a total of 13 episodes of "I Am a Singer", so the total cost of the entire program The labor cost is around 90 million!"
“This doesn’t even count the venue layout and equipment costs!”
The other party paused and said, "Judging from the positioning of this program, it focuses on music, so the requirements for the venue and sound equipment must be very high, and to achieve excellent results, no one is worth 70 to 80 million yuan." Absolutely impossible! You must know that playing music costs a lot of money! If you play a music show, it will cost even more money!"
"So, if Xingcan Company wants not to lose money, their advertising revenue must be more than 200 million!"
"At present, the advertising revenue of variety shows from major TV stations in our empire is not high. The just-concluded "The Voice of China" is by far the most popular variety show in our country, and its overall advertising revenue is only one billion! This is due to the continued good reputation for four consecutive seasons! As a brand new program, "I Am a Singer", no one knows what its ratings will be, and advertisers cannot risk investing too much!"
"However, this program is good because it has gathered so many kings and queens who have retired for many years. Just the competition between these people on the same stage is enough to make advertisers pay for it! In my personal judgment, this kind of advertising Those who are good at inhaling disgust will be found in the giant Yichen stone!"
"In this way," host Jin Xing immediately took over, "if Xingcan Entertainment wants not to lose money, the national average ratings of the program "I Am a Singer" must be above 3, right?"
"good!"
The other party nodded, shook his head, and said with a sigh, "The ratings have exceeded 3! Even The Voice, which has become very popular in recent years, has never reached this figure. It's easier said than done!"
Jin Xing asked again: "You mean that Xingcan Entertainment Company is likely to suffer heavy losses, right?"
"If it's just a loss, it's just a trivial matter," the other party shook his head and said, "As far as I know, they used 60% of the entire company's shares to borrow 200 million from the bank."
"If they cannot return the money to the bank within three years, then the company will change owners, and Ye Ming and the other three will also be reduced from the company's major shareholders to small shareholders, and Chongmu will have to go through five battles in the C Company Palace. Untie the circle!"
Soon, the words of industry insiders were posted online. For a time, the voices of badmouthing Ye Ming and Xingcan Entertainment suddenly increased a lot!
Many entertainment giants and listed companies took notice of this and went to find out which bank Xingcan Entertainment had borrowed from, preparing to take the opportunity to take their shares before Xingcan Entertainment could provide the money!
You know, this is a company with two of the top musicians and a variety show director in the industry!
Before this, countless entertainment companies wanted to invite them but were unable to do so. Now if they can take this opportunity to acquire the other company, then the other party will have to work for Baiji again no matter how reluctant they are!
All of a sudden, major forces began to push the situation behind the scenes, constantly exaggerating the possibility that "I Am a Singer" will be sold out!
"Xiaoye, this situation doesn't seem good!"
In the Xingcan Entertainment office area, Jin Lei opened Ye Ming's office with a thick stack of newspapers. "
So many newspapers are saying that we are going to attack the streets!"
Jin Lei dropped the stack of newspapers on the coffee table, with a hint of sullenness on his face.
No matter how good-tempered Jin Lei was, in the face of this storm of ridicule and contempt, Xi Shi was so tired that he was forced to destroy his seat!
Ye Ming glanced at the newspapers, smiled and said: "No matter what they do, we just do our own thing."
"No," Jin Lei shook his head and said, "The mood of the employees was greatly affected by their disturbance. Yesterday, several people came to me secretly and asked me if our program would be a hit. ! It’s not okay to continue like this. People are in chaos, how can we do this show!”
"That's true!"
Ye Ming thought for a while, knocked on the table, and said, "Then let's do something to distract the media!"
As a result, in the afternoon of that day, a news announcement appeared on the official website and Weibo of Xingcan Entertainment:
"The new album "Broad Sea and Sky" by the Believers is ready for release! At 12 o'clock tonight, Qu Wuhou will encourage customers to sell it! Please place a bet if it's open!"
As soon as this announcement from Xingcan Entertainment came out, everyone's attention was immediately attracted. The popularity of the topic "I Am a Singer" dropped by more than half in an instant, leaving a group of people with ulterior motives who could only feel depressed and secretly for a while. Swear!
But for most netizens, especially fans of the band Believer, this is a happy thing! "Haha! After waiting for more than half a month, is it finally coming out? My money is already impatient to wait. !”
“I can finally hear the new song from the Believers! I’m so excited!”
"I wonder if the six new songs will be as good as the other nine songs? I hope the Believer Band will not disappoint me!"
"With Your Highness Ming here, the fate of the Yinwang Sect will not be possible for the Believers Band One Day Chou Lingguang! This strong exclusive breeding will definitely be great!"
