Chapter 22 22. Radio station cooperation (first update)
Nie Wei was really surprised when he heard that the other party revealed that he was the person in charge of the radio station.
"Are you going to buy the broadcasting rights of this book?" Nie Wei asked tentatively, and was immediately recognized by the other party.
"Mr. Nie, I think your novel is very interesting, especially the first-person narration. It is very suitable for our radio program. Recently, one of our radio programs about stories needs new literary works, and after our We held a meeting and discussed it, and everyone agreed that your "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is the most suitable."
"But I am still serializing it in the newspaper. Wouldn't it be appropriate to broadcast it now?" Nie Wei asked with a slight frown, mainly because he was afraid that the progress of the two aspects would conflict.
But obviously the person in charge of the radio station was well prepared if he could call Nie Wei.
"There will be no conflict between the two parties. The progress of our radio program will be slower than that of the newspaper. What's more, with the promotion of radio, it will also help the popularity of your novel. Although we are not as immediate as the TV program, the listeners of our radio station will also be There are many, and in the end, please believe in our sincerity." The person in charge of the radio station said it very sincerely.
"I will consider it seriously." Nie Wei replied.
"I'll call you tomorrow, okay?"
"Can."
After hanging up the phone, Nie Wei seemed to be staring at the computer screen, but in fact, his mind was already focused on what he had just talked about on the phone.
Nie Wei was really surprised by the sound of the radio station coming to her door, but now that she thinks about it, she is indeed very moved.
Although it seems that the status of radio stations today is far less than that of the 1970s and 1980s, their influence is definitely not small, especially among certain specific groups, their influence is even greater than that of television stations.
For example, people who work as taxi drivers are inseparable from radio stations. They have to work in the car for more than eight hours a day, and they are also divided into day and night shifts. One car is almost 24 hours a day.
Taxis do not have the conditions to install televisions and other entertainment equipment, and nowadays there are no smart phones and IPADs, so radio stations have become the best companion for these drivers while working.
Especially night shift drivers, driving alone in a quiet city, not to mention how lonely they feel, being able to listen to people chatting on the radio is also a great way to relieve their loneliness.
In addition, there are also passengers taken by taxi drivers, as well as private car drivers, some students, the elderly, etc. It can be said that the audience of the radio station is not a small number, and it even has a wider audience than newspapers. Some.
The reason why he didn't agree immediately just now was mainly because Nie Wei wanted to be reserved and strive for better conditions for himself, but in fact, in his heart, Nie Wei had already decided to sign the novel to the radio station.
The next day, Nie Wei received another call from the person in charge of the radio station early in the morning. This time, Nie Wei did not refuse and directly asked the person to come out to meet.
The person in charge of this radio station is called Liu Chuang, and he is doing the midnight time program of Traffic Radio. Generally, in addition to emotional stories, the programs in this time period tell ghost stories, so being interested in Nie Wei's "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is not considered a big deal. Accident.
When they met, Liu Chuang didn't recognize Nie Wei for a while. After all, the seventeen-year-old Nie Wei looked a bit too young. He really didn't look like he could write a sophisticated article like "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", but in Nie Wei's case Liu Chuang's doubts dissipated after showing him the original manuscript of the second yet-to-be-released "Longling Cave".
After all, the writing style and plot of the second part are exactly the same as the first part. This can already confirm that the young man in front of me is really the author.
After confirming Nie Wei's identity, Liu Chuang seemed to find something different from ordinary teenagers when observing him.
For example, this boy appears to be far calmer than his peers, and he is very indifferent to money. He also has decent manners, funny conversation, and profound knowledge...
No matter how you look at it, he is a young man with many advantages. Perhaps this is the difference between genius and mortal.
After sighing inwardly, Liu Chuang also stated the conditions he had brought. Nie Weiwei listened and compared them with his inner conditions. If they were similar, he nodded. Nie Wei, who was far behind, clearly expressed his thoughts. An hour later, Liu Chuang left the teahouse sweating profusely.
And half of the contents of a draft contract in his hand had been completely renovated. Those were the results that Nie Wei insisted on. Thinking of the sharp negotiation style of the young man just now, he couldn't help but feel palpitations. It really made him completely He realized what it meant to be 'led by the nose'. After this negotiation, Nie Wei also left a really deep impression on him.
This boy really can't be treated like an ordinary child, it's too scary...
The next day, Liu Chuang brought the contract to the teahouse where they had last met. Nie Wei had also been waiting for a long time. The signing process was very smooth, without any twists and turns. After Nie Wei wrote down his name, a piece of paper read "Thirty". A check worth 10,000 yuan was also handed into his hands.
This is only the price for two movies. In addition, each of Nie Wei's next "Ghost Blowing Lamp" movies is also 150,000 yuan. As long as one movie is completed, the radio station will settle the bill once.
In addition to cash remuneration, the radio station’s program advertising revenue during the broadcast of "Ghost Blowing Out the Lamp" was also 5% of Nie Wei’s. The amount of advertising expenses is undoubtedly directly related to the program’s listening rate. Obviously the radio station also hopes that Nie Wei will perform in the future. will be even better, and it will be a win-win situation for everyone.
After signing the contract, Liu Chuang took the novel back to the radio station. After all, as a story program, his narrative method could not completely copy the text on paper, and some changes were still necessary. Nie Wei didn't care about this. As long as it didn't affect the stock market plot, he basically let the editor of the radio station do it.
After returning home, Nie Wei also called Liu Yuan to inform him that the radio station would simultaneously make a program about "Ghost Blowing Light".
"Editor Liu, don't worry. When I signed the contract, I deliberately added a clause that before you finish serializing, the progress of their program will not exceed the speed of your newspaper publication." This is what Nie Wei mainly wanted to say on this call.
Hearing Nie Wei's words, Liu Yuan's heart was relieved, and then he was grateful to Nie Wei.
In fact, he knew very well that Nie Wei didn't need to make this call at all. After all, the contract signed by their newspaper was only in the newspaper and magazine aspect, and it had no binding force on the cooperation between them and the radio station. Even if the radio station made the story progress faster than the newspaper in one day, then Yanjing Wenbao could only bear it.
The special condition that Nie Wei added was undoubtedly for the benefit of Yanjing Wenbao. Being able to do this, Nie Wei has left an image of loyalty in Liu Yuan's heart.
"By the way, I have another idea. Editor Liu, please listen to it." At the end of his speech, Nie Wei suddenly thought of something and said it immediately.
