I Signed-In For A Billion Dollar Mansion From The Very Beginning Chapter 325 - The Competition Has Begun!

Chapter 325: The Competition Has Begun!

Who asked Xia Wanqiu to be Madam Lin?

Everyone could only be angry but not dare to say anything.

No, none of them dared to be angry.

The way Xia Wanqiu ate was too cute.

How could most people withstand it?

…

After the filming of The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 was completed, the post-production, dubbing and approval procedures were also completed.

For the entire Jiaxing Entertainnt, the most important thing was the release of The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3.

Choosing which television station and which ti slot to broadcast would also have a crucial impact on the number of views the drama had.

In front of Lin Fan, Su Muqing said, “Boss Lin, we’ve already contacted five television stations, but there’s no response. There are very few television stations that have chosen to buy our premiere rights. All five television stations have bought the premiere rights to Chinese Paladin.”

“On the other hand, we can talk to MangoTV about buying the premiere rights. These TV companies don’t seem as enthusiastic about our The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 as we expected.”

Lin Fan nodded. “It’s okay. It’s not a big problem. Co with to MangoTV.”

In the afternoon, Lin Fan drove the Bugatti La Voiture Noire to MangoTV.

......

Along the way, he attracted the attention of many passers-by.

Three o’clock.

In the office of MangoTV.

“Boss Lin, we’re very interested in your The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3. Your television series is also very good.”

“However, we can only buy the premiere rights to The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 for ninety million, and the broadcast ti can only be 11pm to 2am, or 3 to 6pm. You can only choose between those two timings,” said the head of MangoTV.

Lin Fan frowned slightly.

The timing of the premiere of a television series was very important.

After all, people only went to watch television in their spare ti. Those who watched television in the early hours of the morning were a minority. Most people had to go to work, and it was impossible for them to stay by the television in the afternoon to watch television. That was unrealistic.

And the price MangoTV had offered was too low.

They only offered 90 million yuan for the premiere rights, which was equivalent to selling it cheaply.

The investnt in The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 was almost 600 million.

And the production cost was as high as 500 million.

Filming a television drama like The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 might not make much money, but it could earn a lot of reputation.

Even if the price of the premiere rights was not too high, Lin Fan could still accept it.

But it couldn’t be that low. Ninety million in premiere rights couldn’t even recoup the production costs.

MangoTV’s condition for Lin Fan was that the Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 could only be broadcast late at night or in the afternoon. These were also tis when there were fewer viewers.

And the timing with the most viewers was 8 to 11 p.m.

“Can’t we change the premiere timing to priti?” Lin Fan asked.

“Boss Lin, I’m sorry…”

“A drama has already been scheduled to be broadcast during priti. Chinese Paladin is broadcasting during pri ti. Boss Lin, do you think we should continue working together? If you want to work together, we can sign the contract now.”

“Even if it’s aired in the early hours of the morning, as long as your drama is outstanding enough, it can be recognized by the audience,” said the MangoTV worker.

“That won’t be necessary.” Lin Fan turned to leave.

This ti… it was Huace Pictures again.

Huace Pictures and Jiaxing Entertainnt launched a TV series at the sa ti.

Chinese Paladin by Huace Pictures and The Legend of Sword and Fairy by Jiaxing Entertainnt.

Even though Lin Fan had fild the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 3, his path was blocked by Huace Pictures.

Five television stations, plus MangoTV, were all taken over by Huace Pictures’ Chinese Paladin.

This ant that these television stations were more optimistic about Huace Pictures.

Of the two TV series, they chose Chinese Paladin.

All of this was thanks to the popularity of the last TV series launched by Huace Pictures. Its results surpassed that of the first season of the Legend of Sword and Fairy.

It was not that these television stations were unwilling to accept The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3. Lin Fan just had to change the broadcast ti of The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 to 11pm.

In that case, he’d miss priti.

If a television series could not be broadcast during priti, no matter how well that television series was fild, it would be difficult to increase the viewership ratings.

Su Muqing looked at Lin Fan and sighed softly.

Lin Fan had already visited 10 television stations in total.

The priti slots for the 10 television stations were all Chinese Paladin.

This was the power of Huace Pictures. It allowed Chinese Paladin to premiere on ten television stations.

Such ans could also attract a larger audience.

It was obvious how powerful Huace Pictures was.

Such was the foundation of a top entertainnt company.

Even if Lin Fan was done filming the television drama, he had to compromise if he wanted to release it.

At first, it had been a problem with investors. Now it was a matter of premiere rights.

October 13th, afternoon.

Lin Fan arrived at Zhejiang Television.

This was also the last television station with more traffic.

Moreover, Zhejiang Television had also broadcasted variety shows like “Keep Running”. Xia Wanqiu had also participated in the recording of the latest season of Keep Running.

“Boss Lin.” The person in charge of Zhejiang Television was a girl nad Li Qingqing.

“I’ve watched your television drama. The graphics and effects of The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 are very good~~”

“I’m a fan of yours. I really like your The Legend of Sword and Fairy 1. Zhejiang Television is also willing to buy the premiere rights of your drama.”

“However, the release date of The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 can only be delayed to October 16th. We will air six episodes a week on the pri ti slot of Friday and Saturday. Is that okay?” Li Qingqing said.

“Yeah, sure,” Lin Fan said.

“Zhejiang Television is willing to pay 200 million for the premiere rights of ‘The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3’. It can be re-released within three years,” Li Qingqing said.

“230 million. Add another 30 million so that I can give my employees a bonus.” Lin Fan smiled. He didn’t like to negotiate, but he could occasionally do so.

“( ?▽ ?) okay~~”

“Mr Lin, happy working with you~” Li Qingqing agreed happily and extended her hand to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan shook Li Qingqing’s hand and signed the contract after successfully adding 30 million to the premiere rights fee.

The third season of the Legend of Sword and Fairy was finally scheduled to be broadcast!

Chinese Paladin was scheduled for October 12.

The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 was a day behind Chinese Paladin.

But at least they’d sold the premiere rights.

The rest would depend on the quality of the two TV series.

Although Lin Fan had a strong background, the companies behind him were not in the entertainnt industry.

In the entertainnt industry, Lin Fan’s Jiaxing Entertainnt was a truly new company.

Faced with the targeting of Huace Pictures, Jiaxing Entertainnt had no room to breathe.

In the battle between Jiaxing Entertainnt and Huace Pictures, Huace Pictures had an overwhelming advantage.

Chinese Paladin was released on October 12 on ten television stations at the sa ti. The Legend of Sword and Fairy was released on only one television station.

The two dramas were worlds apart.

If Lin Fan lost this ti, he would probably be laughed at by the people from Huace Pictures.

No matter what, Lin Fan’s television drama could not lose.

This was the television drama he had put in the most effort into filming in his life.

Soon, October 12th had arrived.

The competition between the two television dramas was about to begin!
