Meng Lang came to Neon this time, arranging the ending of Dragon Knight is just one of the tasks. Another very important task is to contact TBS and ANB and ask them who is interested in the "Four Hundred Aunts".
Four hundred aunts have finished.
But the broadcasting platform is not easy to find!
Domestic Bird TV is certainly no problem, but abroad, several partners are reluctant to introduce this drama.
For example, FOX directly refused.
Sounds ridiculous?
Directed by Meng Heizhu himself, the subject matter is still his best special hero drama, but no one buys the overseas broadcasting rights?
Although unbelievable, it is true.
The reason is also very simple!
Compared to works such as "Kamen Rider", "Ultraman" and "Super Sentai", "Spider-Man" has no value for money.
Even if it is hot, it is not worth buying!
This price/performance ratio refers to "film purchase cost/advertising revenue". Because Meng Heizhu personally directed and the production cost is not low, the price of "Spider-Man" is about the same as "Ultraman Tiga".
If you are a leader of an overseas TV station, you have a budget of 10 million to buy movies.
You have already proven your strength, and there is "Ultraman Tiga" in front of you. Would you buy the "Spider-Man" with the same price but not proven strength?
It is not easy for everyone to make money!
Except for Meng Heizhu, no one's money comes from the wind, and you can spend it whatever you want! For the same high price, you must weigh the pros and cons and make the choice that is most beneficial to you.
Someone may ask...
Since the high price cannot be sold, why didn't Meng Lang cut the price?
"Brother, I can't help it!"
Faced with the soul torture issued by TBS, Meng Lang complained: "The production cost is here. It is really indispensable. You can't let me make a film, and you still lose money?"
"But you still have peripheral derivatives, and you lose money from toy subsidies. We TV stations can only make money from advertising revenue!"
"toy……"
Mentioned toys, Meng Lang's face went dark.
"Spider-Man" can indeed sell toys, but this IP hasn't become popular, how to sell it? If you want to hype IP, you must first broadcast it to win the audience's love.
This is back to square one!
The TV station doesn't want to take a risk. If you buy "Spider-Man" at a high price and you can't make it back, don't you lose a lot?
Meng Tsai is also unwilling to take risks. If the broadcasting rights are sold cheaply and the toys can't be earned back, then he will lose a lot.
Neither party is willing to take a step back.
During the first meeting, Meng Lang and TBS executives broke up unhappy.
Subsequently, Meng Lang met with Mr. ANB President Mr. ANB under the recommendation of Bai Cang. This time, he finally made a breakthrough.
In the past two years, ANB has made a lot of money by relying on the topicality of "Empty Me" and "Dragon Knight", and has become bolder and willing to take a gamble.
But they made a request.
If "Spiderman" fails to make them money, Meng Zi's next work must give them a wave of discounts.
"no problem!"
Anyway, it is a verbal agreement, no matter whether it can be fulfilled, first nod and agree.
If this happened, Meng Zi patted his back to Jiangchuan, pretending to be dead, and didn't answer anyone's phone calls. Then the ANB president could only stare at him.
Do business, you must have a thick skin!
The president of ANB, who was given a sip of ecstasy soup by Meng Tsai, had already floated to the sky, and he happily finalized the cooperation. They promised to introduce "Spider-Man" as soon as Bird TV premiered.
The price is definitely not cheap!
After achieving his goal this time, Meng Lang was also relieved.
At this time, he finally had time to toss Omori, arrange the broadcast of the Dragon Knight TV special episode, and the audience "voting for the ending."
The special episode is scheduled to be broadcast on October 15.
This day happens to be Saturday, and the ratings are at the peak. ANB withdrew a variety show and freed up about 65 minutes to broadcast the edited "Six Endings of Dragon Knight".
The audience was surprised!
The broadcast of Kamen Rider on Saturday was unexpected. What is even more unexpected is that the TV series is only half of the broadcast, and the ending will come out first!
What the is PD company doing?
Is such an obvious spoiler really good? Meng Heizhu took a family portrait alone, he must be smiling happily, right?
Tucao return to Tucao...
Spoiler about this kind of thing, although everyone is quite disgusted. But after it happened, any audience interested in the plot would still be tempted to take a look.
He said "spoiler dog S's family" and "don't look at who is silly". But as night fell, the soaring ratings of ANB proved one thing after the special episode was officially broadcast.
Everyone is a true fragrant party!
Longqi's ratings, although it fell to the bottom, was sluggish. But it was once brilliant when it premiered, and coupled with the popularity of "Kamen Rider: Battle Royale", many people wondered what the ending would look like.
I don’t know, I was shocked when I saw it!
It took an hour to cut into six endings. Last second, I was still scolding all the members of the PD club for violent death, and the audience who returned my Shinji little angel, with the appearance of different endings, their eyes were almost out of their sockets.
1, 2, 3, ... 6!
There are six endings, each one is different! In addition to the traditional tragic ending, there are more family endings, as well as "open" endings.
What's up?
Before they could understand the significance of PD's move, a special sentence at the end of the article immediately ignited public opinion.
"As of the end of October, we will solicit opinions from global audiences. The option with the highest number of votes will automatically become the ending of the Dragon Knight TV series. The remaining endings will be cut into DVD..."
"For specific voting methods, please refer to the official website announcement!"
Yo! How fresh?
It has always been a "self-asserting" producer, soliciting the opinions of the audience for the first time and changing the original plan. This approach is the first in the industry.
Everyone's enthusiasm increased immediately!
Being able to participate in the production of "Kamen Rider" is definitely a big event for most knight fans. Not only neon, but also regions such as China, Europe and North America are also within the voting range.
This news has also been on the hot search list.
Many viewers want to vote, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com chooses their favorite ending. However, the voting method announced by the PD agency was dumbfounding.
When "Kamen Rider Dragon Rider" is broadcast, a series of "voting codes" will be scrolled at the bottom of the TV screen. Send this series of voting codes to the designated number via SMS to participate in voting.
The voting code is refreshed every 30 seconds!
Each phone number is limited to one ticket!
This rule...
Although it is not stated explicitly, Meng Tsai's meaning is very clear. You must pay to watch the latest episode of Dragon Knight and prove that you are indeed a fan of Dragon Knight in order to be eligible to vote.
Bitch!
When he voted, he had to stare at the TV screen all the time, complete the "input code" within 30 seconds, and "send successfully". I missed the time if I didn't pay attention, and the vote was invalid?
For Longqi’s ratings, Meng Heizhu was really broken. He could even think of such a disgusting way...
