Chapter 224 Someone is looking for trouble
"I'm from Qianjiang TV Station, and Mr. Xiao He and Xiao asked me to call you."
"Oh, are you doing something?"
"It's like this. Our Qianjiang TV Station wants to introduce your latest variety show, so I want to discuss it with you. Do you have time today?"
The other party spoke very politely, which gave Xiao Yi a good feeling, so Xiao Yi replied: "Okay, I will go to the company in the afternoon. You can come to our company then."
"Okay, Director Xiao, I'll bother you."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yi was a little confused. Isn’t Xiaopang responsible for all these things that have been working with the TV station? Why did he push it to himself today?
Xiao Yi called Xiaopang directly.
"Hey Xiaopang, why did the Qianjiang TV station call me?"
"Ah? They really contacted you?"
"Nonsense, people said you asked me to call me, and I just hung up the phone. What's going on? Isn't you responsible for your cooperation with the TV station? Why did you push me here?"
"Brother Yi, it's not that I want to push it to you. Now many TV stations are looking for our company to win your new variety show, and I really can't decide whether to cooperate with you in various relationships or ways.
"Isn't this simple? If you can cooperate with anyone who gives you the highest price, you won't even know this basic business knowledge, right?"
"How is that possible!" Xiaopang said loudly, "The key is that the prices given by these TV stations are basically no different. It's like discussing in advance, and there is no choice at all."
Xiao Yi frowned, thought of a possibility in his mind, and said, "What do you mean is that these TV stations have already passed in advance?"
"Otherwise? No matter how coincidental it is, it is impossible for all the TV stations to come to ours to give the price difference of no more than 1%, right? Even the price given by Xiangnan TV, which we used to work with, is no different."
"That's it. I'll come to the company later. Then you can tell me in detail."
When Xiao Yi returned home, he said to his mother, and drove to the company.
"What the hell is going on? How could all the people on the TV station collude?" Xiao Yi asked directly after entering Xiaopang's office.
"I have also investigated it. It is said that Xiangnan Satellite TV took the lead in doing this." Xiaopang said.
"Xiangnan TV? How is that possible? We have been working with them all the time. Why do they do this?"
"Why else, I'm so jealous. When our two programs, "Where Are We Going, Dad" and "Chinese Restaurant", decided the price based on the final ratings, so the basic price ordered at the beginning was not very high. Now the ratings of both programs far exceed the original estimate, so the price they actually used to buy these two programs is very high. On the other hand, since all the advertising revenue of the program belongs to ours, the popularity of these two programs also makes our pure advertising revenue unbelievably high, and they are very jealous. Xiangnan TV has asked us several times to change the cooperation model, but we rejected them. So this time we are going to give us a ward off and let us take the initiative to make concessions." Xiaopang explained the reason.
Xiao Yi's face became serious and said, "Hmph, they not only don't want to take the risk of sharing, but also want to get high returns!"
"Yes, this is also the reason why I have never agreed to change the cooperation model." Xiaopang nodded.
Xiao Yi pondered for a moment and said, "What TV stations are there now that come to find us to cooperate with?"
"Add to Xiangnan Satellite TV, nearly half of the 30 provincial satellite TV stations in the country have arrived." Xiaopang smiled bitterly, "This is also the reason why I did not directly refuse. If we directly reject all these people, we will offend half of the TV stations in the country, which is very unfavorable to future development."
"Yes." Xiao Yi nodded, "In this way, you now notify people to send invitations to all satellite TV stations across the country, saying that we want to bid for new variety shows and choose the right partners! I don't believe that these people can really be a solid person in the face of interests!"
"Is this OK? They have colluded. Even if we openly bid, it will be useless if they do something bad."
Xiao Yi smiled and said, "We don't know how to bid, and then we will give him a secret bidding bid, and then see who can trust whom!"
Xiaopang was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what Xiao Yi meant, and couldn't help but say excitedly: "Ha, yes, why didn't I expect it? Brother Yi is still your brain is good, hahaha."
......
At noon that day, all provincial-level TV stations across the country received invitations from Yiran Entertainment, and will bid for the broadcast rights of "Running Man" at the headquarters of Yiran Entertainment Company tomorrow at noon.
When Xiangnan TV was in charge of joining forces with various TV stations this time, Wang Pengfei, the person in charge of changing the cooperation method, saw the invitation letter from Yiran Entertainment, and said disdainfully: "Hmph, do you think you can find a TV station to cooperate in this way?"
He picked up his mobile phone and called the TV station leaders who were connected one by one to communicate the problems when attending the bidding meeting tomorrow. He also asked these people to find the TV stations who did not have connection to explain the situation. Everyone united and let Yiran Entertainment take the initiative to make concessions!
I have to say that the people on these TV stations have the same idea. They don’t want to take too much risks and get greater benefits, so everyone expressed their support for the opinions put forward by Xiangnan Satellite TV!
At 11 o'clock the next day, it was still on the eighth floor of Yiran Entertainment Headquarters. Many domestic TV station leaders gathered together, and many media reporters came to participate in the bidding meeting for Yiran Entertainment.
Xiao Yi sat on the stage and looked at everyone below with confidence, especially Wang Pengfei from Xiangnan Satellite TV, who seemed a little proud and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Okay, please be quiet, our bidding meeting will begin soon." said the director of the company's public relations department responsible for the bidding meeting on the stage.
"The cooperation methods and estimated returns provided by our company have been sent to you. I believe you have already made your own plans in your heart. So please enjoy a trailer for our latest variety show."
After the director of the public relations department finished speaking, he signaled to the staff next to him to play the first trailer cut out in the past two days.
The trailer is not long, only more than three minutes, but everyone present had a shiny feeling when they saw this trailer.
Everyone is a professional, and it is easy to see the good or bad of this show. Even Wang Pengfei from Xiangnan TV couldn't help but nod.
Chapter completed!
