A Day In a Japanese Fishing Village - Chapter 695
But no matter good or bad, after at least a week of fermentation, the variety show “Running Star” really shows a small fire. Many viewers who have watched it are very much looking forward to the second episode!
Fukuoka TV.
Guujigu is one of the main persons in charge here. He and several other high-level executives saw that the ratings of “Running Star” were good, and the first broadcast won the top three ratings on this site. It is still in continuous improvement. He felt it was time to talk to Sony about purchasing issues 4-12 of the first season.
Now that they see that this variety show is very popular, of course, they hope to get the right to play later.
On this day, he made an appointment for Inamori to come over.
“Haha… Mr. Inamori, it’s been a long time.” Kuujigu said with a smile, sitting across from him.
“haven’t seen you for a long time!”
“I came to you this time to talk to you about the broadcasting rights of the last 4-12 episodes of “Running Star”. You also know that you sold all the first three episodes to us, so the next I believe that you are also willing to broadcast the 9th issue on our TV station.” Kuujigu said solemnly.
“As long as the price is right, everything is easy to say.” Inamori said with a smile.
Now that “Running Star” is showing good ratings, of course he will raise the price. Selling to the other party in the previous three phases was a loss-making transaction. That amount of money wasn’t even half the cost of filming. It can be said that it is still at a loss.
“At three times the previous price, I agree to sign the rest of the contract with you.” Inamori didn’t write any ink, and directly stated the conditions he wanted.
“Three times?” After hearing this, Kuujigu’s eyes widened! He felt unacceptable at this price!
“Too much, too much, I can only accept double the previous price!”
“Hehe, do you know how much our “Running Stars” cost? The price you gave before is only enough to invite our seven stars and three guests in each episode. We are shooting several episodes now. It’s a loss. You are now doubling the previous price, and our company is still shooting at a loss. If that’s the case, I don’t think there’s any need to talk about it! Unless it’s three times the previous price.” Inamori shook his head ridiculously. Does the other party really take him for a fool? Now that the ratings are good, he naturally has bargaining chips. If the other party is unwilling, then he can let his works be broadcast on other TV stations. Anyway, the copyright of the remaining issues is in their own hands. Now he secretly said that the chairman was really vigilant, and told him not to sell all the copyrights of the first season at one time, but to take out the first 2-3 issues to sign the contract, otherwise, this time it would be a big loss. .
Now, the initiative is still in your own hands!
“But three times is too much, I’m only willing to pay twice the price!” As for more, he felt free to talk.
“Three times, no less!” Inamori shook his head.
“Twice! You have to know, if you don’t sell it to us, who will buy you? Although your current “Running Star” has good ratings on my TV station, the ratings in the country are not very prominent…” Guandigu said in a deep voice.
In the end, the two sides still could not agree.
Mainly in terms of price!
When Inamori told Minami Shuuichi the news, he told Inamori not to be too anxious, anyway, the second episode is ready to be broadcast. Just look at the ratings for the second episode.
Since the other party didn’t even give three times the original price, huh, it seems like he won’t make any money. Where is such a good thing?
The second issue of started playing on the third day of the negotiation.
After passing the first issue, the number of people watching the second issue increased even more.
After statistics the next day, it got a 6.2% audience rating! The acceptance rate champion that won first place directly on Fukuoka TV. At the same time, among the TV programs of many TV stations in the country, it won the sixth ratings in the country!
No. 6 in the country!
Now “Running Star” is finally a big hit, and it became a big hit in the second issue.
Fukuoka TV station was shocked when they saw that “Running Star” won the sixth place in the country, and then those high-level executives immediately decided to sign a contract with Sony, and they must broadcast the remaining 9 episodes of the program. Get the contract.
No reason, because now this variety show is completely on fire.
On this day, I saw Inamori again.
“Hehe, I came here this time to talk to Inamori-kun about the broadcast rights for the remaining 9 episodes of “Running Star”. You said before that the price is three times the previous one. We are now willing to publish the TV station This price!” Kuujigu said with a smile.
“Oh~ that’s it!” Inamori said lightly, but there was no joy on his face.
“Yeah, I wonder if we can sign a contract now?”
“nonono, why did you not want to ask me this price before? Why did you agree now?” Inamori said with a hint of sneer.
“This, uh, our TV station needs to think about this matter, and think about it now.”
“Hehe, I think we saw the ratings of our “Running Star” season one and the second episode of the show go up, right?” Inamori said with a cold smile.
“Uh, what you said, that’s true. So…”
“For four times the price, I’ll sell it to you.” Inamori didn’t bother to talk nonsense.
“Nani? Four times the price, didn’t you say three times the price before? You are starting from the ground!” Kudigu stood up and roared. He felt that the other party was obviously sitting on the ground and raising the price.
“I’m not starting from the ground, you’re using the word incorrectly, I call it a rise in water! Our show currently ranks sixth in the national ratings. It’s not very high for me to take four times the previous price.” Inamori curled his lips.
“you…”
“What are you? You don’t agree with the price?”
“Yes, if it’s triple I agree!” Kuujigu said with a gloomy face.
“Five times the price!” Inamori stretched out a palm with a smile.
“What do you mean?” This time Kuangdigu was a little confused.
“I mean five times the original price before, I like to buy it or not.” Inamori laughed.
“You, you’re not just sitting on the ground and raising the price!” Kudigu was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
“If you wait any longer, I’ll leave! If your TV station doesn’t buy it, I believe many other TV stations will rush to buy my “Running Star”!” Inamori smiled coldly.
Indeed, he was right. With the current ratings of “Running Star”, if everyone knows that the remaining broadcast rights of it have not been sold, it is estimated that they will be very interested.
“I will buy it, I will buy it!” In the end, Kudigu lowered his noble head.
That sentence, you always have to pay it back!
