Superstar starts from the Film and Television Academy

Big Star Star Starts at Film Academy Chapter 102

Han Fei laughed without saying anything, the director of operations smiled bitterly, "I can only try to help you make an appointment with their director of procurement, I can't really reach the level of manager, you know, we say we are a brother unit, but after all, they are first sons, we can only be considered a concubine here."

"Thank you very much already." Han Fei said from the bottom of his heart.

On the other hand, the news that "Together Through the Window" couldn't be broadcasted on Capital TV soon spread through the academy, and everyone from teachers to students were actually quite disappointed, not to mention all those students who had participated in the filming and expected to show their faces on Capital TV.

This news also spread quickly in the art school circles, and as sensational as the news was, the cold stares and ridicule ushered in were fierce, especially some art schools that had direct competition with each other, and began to write all kinds of ridicule paragraphs.

For example, "To tell a joke, Beijing Shadow's student work is going to be starred on air." "Han Fei's halo is not there, and it turns out that the higher you fly the worse you fall."

Both sides were energetic college students, so naturally there was no shortage of fierce confrontation on various forums, and after all, there were only so many people in Kyokushin, so even if they were united, they would only suffer in this regard.

At this time, Han Fei was on a flight to Pengcheng.

Chapter 141 - Selling Films or Advertisements?

Peng City a young city, but also a paradise for entrepreneurs, Penguin headquarters, located on the north side of Shennan Avenue, the total height of the building 193 meters, belongs to the landmark building, naturally it is also easy to find.

Han Fei arrived downstairs at Tencent's headquarters and was taken to the reception room, where there were several restless young people who seemed to be waiting for an interview, as well as a number of well-dressed bosses dressed as people who were supposed to be ready to negotiate cooperation.

Han Fei's arrival didn't attract too much attention, and the way the few young people looked at him didn't seem too friendly, while the bosses also thought that Han Fei was here for an interview, after all, he seemed even younger than those young people in terms of age.

Han Fei didn't care, making a cup of coffee on his own and drinking it by himself.

"Hey, buddy, are you here to apply for a job as a software engineer at Penguin Video too?" A young man suddenly came together.

Han Fei flinched and shrugged his shoulders, "Not really."

"Then you're ........" The young man asked in confusion.

Han Fei said lightly, "Would you believe me if I said, I'm here to talk about cooperation?"

"Pfft~~" the bosses present were all happy, and several young people were no longer taut.

One of the bosses laughed, "Little brother, by the looks of you, you should still be a college student, right? What's a good project to tell us about first?"

The crowd around them all laughed lightly, clearly not believing that Han Fei, at his age, could negotiate any cooperation with a big corporation like Penguin.

While laughing, an assistant-looking person trotted over, "May I ask which one is Mr. Han Fei, Director Wei from Penguin Video has an appointment with you, please follow me."

Right in the midst of everyone's astonished gazes, Han Fei slowly stood up, "I'm Han Fei." After following the assistant lady to the door, she suddenly stopped and changed to smile at the crowd, "Perhaps it won't be long before you can see my project on Penguin Video."

The assistant lady brought Han Fei to an office door and knocked on it, where a man around thirty years old was on the phone at his desk.

"Are you ....... Han Fei?" Director Wei was surprised, in fact he had a simple communication with Han Fei on WeChat before making an appointment to meet with him today, but his impression of Han Fei was definitely not like this, mature, experienced, humorous, could it be that the face was young?

Han Fei shrugged, "As a matter of fact, you're not the first person to suspect my age."

"Alright, I'll get straight to the point then." Director Wei suppressed his surprise, through the previous exchange, he knew that the young man in front of him was not an easy master to deal with.

"Of course, time is precious to anyone." Han Fei nodded.

Director Wei said directly, "I've watched the first few episodes of your drama, and overall it's on the bland side, of course, I admit that your script is good and the actors' performances are professional, but you don't have a famous director or a famous actor, which makes it hard to attract viewers."

"Yes, this is our disadvantage, but Director Wei should be aware that in the last two years, as hot money has gradually withdrawn from the market, the audience has also become more rational, except for a very few [Visual Queen] who have absolute influence on the market, most of the so-called famous actors in TV series have met their Waterloo, instead, many small-budget TV series have completed the backlash." Han Fei didn't refute Director Wei's point in the slightest, instead completely exposing his weakness to him, as it was an indisputable fact that the focus of the negotiations shouldn't be here.

Director Wei also had to admit that Han Fei had a point, the recent TV drama market was very weird, like Penguin Video and Kiwi Video before and after two TV dramas with the same theme, if we just look at the cast, Penguin Video this one, definitely crushed the Kiwi one, unfortunately in the end, the one broadcast by Kiwi Video became the hit of the year, while the influence of Penguin Video this one was several streets behind.

"But how can you guarantee that this drama of yours is going to backfire?" Director Wei pursued.

Han Fei spread his hands, "Actually, I can't guarantee that."

"Oh?" Director Wei was a little strange, a little confused as to how he was playing this. Did that give up?

Han Fei was unperturbed in the face of Director Wei's scrutinizing gaze: "Director Wei, you should know that no one knows how well a drama will be received by the audience until it's on the air, and the only advantage my drama has is that ........ It's cheap!"

"Well?" Director Wei hadn't turned the corner yet, why did he have a vested sense of watching TV shopping and being brainwashed?

Han Fei looked sincere, "Director Wei, let me give you a solid bottom line, the production cost of this drama is two million two hundred thousand, I'll sell it to you at direct cost. The publicity after that doesn't require any of your resources, it's all my responsibility."

Director Wei is the first time I've seen someone negotiate to show their cards to their opponent first, more than two million for Penguin Video, it's not money at all, the authority in his hand even if this price goes up ten times he can still shoot, but he wasn't moved by Han Fei's low-cost strategy.

Internet companies are not afraid to spend money, the key is to see if the money is worth it, for video sites, they would rather take ten times the price to smash an A-grade production than spend a small amount of money to buy some trash that no one will watch at all.

But Han Fei will be his hands on the promotional resources and after the tray, the director of the Wei suddenly feel that the deal is actually very cost-effective, "Bird Studio" situation he still has some understanding of the studio's sound itself has many listeners, and more importantly, their listeners are scattered in various sound platforms, which is a wave of free advertising.

And Han Fei himself also has six million real fans, not to mention Yang Kexin can help with publicity, such publicity is no less than the average star TV series, as if to spend money on advertising, also worth the price back.

After Han Fei took out the theme song he had made for "Together We Had a Window", Director Wei typeset it on the spot.

"Okay, at this price, I'll have my assistant prepare the contract right away."

"Happy cooperation."

The content of the contract was very simple, Han Fei gave Penguin Video the rights to broadcast "Together We Have a Window" for five years, and received 2.2 million before taxes, the promotional methods promised before were also listed in the contract, if Han Fei violated the contract, he would face penalties.

Han Fei also breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, the shooting of this film went exceptionally smoothly, the real cost of filming is 1.8 million, seemingly earned 400,000, but counting taxes, can only be considered as no loss.

The experience also made Han Fei realize the hard mixed film and television circle, from the major TV to video sites, which have their own untangled network of interests, no background and no fame to dive headlong into only to be hanged to the bones of the share.

In the end, the iron is still hard, the return flight Han Fei has been thinking, with his current accumulation, should be able to support him to stand in the center of the stage, why not start from the "together with the window".

Chapter 142.

"How did it go?" Seeing Han Fei return, Jiang light marquis was the first to gather around, it may be a bit preposterous to say it, but he really felt bad about it, he was the one who brought this up, but in reality the script and funding were all backed by Han Fei.

He hadn't felt much when he was filming before, until he was rejected by Capital TV, Jiang light marquis realized that this circle was far more cruel than he had imagined, if he had some fame, maybe this film wouldn't be so hard to sell.

"Hey." Han Fei sighed, and the crowd suddenly dropped their hearts into the well, but before they could drop to the bottom, they heard the product say again, "Just sold 2.2 million, counting taxes is basically a waste of time."

"Fuck, sold out? Penguin video?" Qin Ming reacted at once.

The crowd came forward and surrounded Han Fei, even the girls, who almost didn't shake Han Fei loose.

"Stop, are you guys trying to strangle me?" Han Fei had a hard time catching his breath.

Immediately he was attacked by Zhang Yue's white eyes: "Who told you to talk big gasps, Penguin Video is a top three video platform, what else do you want?"

"That's right, I think you're just saving your life to see us laugh." The crowd followed with a burst of denunciation.

Han Fei said disdainfully, "Look at you guys, remember, this account will be put on Penguin Video first, and afterwards buddy will add ten times to make them pay out."

"Alright, look at what you can do, you're exhausted from this trip, right? Hurry up and go rest." Zhang Yue and a few sisters covered their mouths and laughed lightly, unable to stop poking fun, obviously not taking Han Fei's words to heart.

The boys were instead told that the adrenaline was flowing extremely fast, and one by one they pulled their necks to agree: "That's right, our film is so good, cheap penguin video, we must earn this money back in the future."

Of course, there weren't many people who took this seriously, they were all just shouting for fun, and only Jiang Lighthou and the others clenched their fists.

The news hadn't even waited until the next day to spread in the college, for the students who had participated in the filming were naturally overjoyed, along with the bad news that came one after another these days, originally thought that the film would only be remembered by everyone in private, didn't think that Han Fei actually single-handedly found Penguin Video, and also successfully sold the film, not to mention the courage alone, everyone chatted only thumbs up when the share.
