Today's third update, please recommend, please subscribe!

Naturally, Nancy Trim would not neglect Evan Bell. After she left, Sam Reid came over quickly and led Evan Bell and his group of four to the conference room. Evan Bell knew that they were going to do the first round of reviews of the pilot episode live.

If you follow the normal procedure, after watching the pilot episode, the viewers will conduct the first round of discussions and have a basic comment on the pilot episode. out evaluation. If necessary, the pilot episode viewing procedure may be repeated several times, with a slightly different composition of viewers. After the evaluation is completed, an evaluation report will be formed and submitted to the high-level executives who have the right to decide whether to sign the series. Once signed, there will be a whole new round of evaluation, which is not an evaluation of the pilot episode itself, but an evaluation of the competitiveness of the entire series, whether it is scheduled for comedy night on Thursday or on other schedules by other The veteran drama series will be brought along first, and there are also time schedules that include multiple grades such as eight o'clock, nine o'clock, ten o'clock, etc., which are all exquisite.

Therefore, after a pilot episode is broadcast, the time to sign a contract with a TV station for the episode is long and short, and the result can be known on the same day if it is short. After two months of discussion and judgment, the final result may be a disappointing answer. For example, the cooperation between "Grey's Anatomy" and the TV station was like this. If Shonda Rhimes turned the tide, this cooperation would not have been possible. Unable to execute.

However, today Nancy Trim did not immediately greet Evan Bell and expressed his attitude of sending off guests. Instead, he asked Sam Reid to take Evan Bell to the conference room. Obviously, there will be preliminary results soon. Results appear. After all, Evan Bell himself, plus this is already the third pilot episode of "The Big Bang Theory", CBS TV already knows enough about this project, and most importantly, the third pilot episode is compared to the first two episodes. It is clear at a glance what improvements and changes have been made. So, no matter what the final result is, whether the show needs to continue to spend time discussing or even signing a contract, a preliminary decision can be made very quickly.

Sure enough, Evan Bell and his entourage stayed in the conference room for less than 20 minutes. When Sam Reid was chatting with Evan Bell about the script of "The Blood Will Come", Nancy Trim brought a standardized smile appeared in the conference room. From this smile alone, nothing can be seen. But Evan Bell knew that it must be good news, so he was not nervous at all.

"Evan, did you graduate from Hogwarts? Can you tell me, which house are you from?" Nancy Trim made a rare joke, although her tone was somewhat rigid and humorous It didn't come out, but the meaning in the words was still passed on. Obviously, she is very satisfied with the quality of "The Big Bang Theory". After the series was changed from Warner Bros. to Eleven Studios, it has undergone a reborn change, which is indeed very surprising. Even though Nancy Trim knew that the two screenwriters Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady were the biggest contributors, she couldn't help but sigh about Evan Bell's magic.

"I've been waiting for the Sorting Hat to tell me the result. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get an answer so far. Personally, Ravenclaw or Slytherin are a good choice." Evan Bell smiled He answered the question casually, but his answer was such that everyone in the conference room could not help but glance at him, probably a little surprised by his choice.

Nancy Trim was also a little surprised, but her eyebrows moved slightly, and she said nothing more, "'The Big Bang Theory' today's pilot episode was very successful, I think we can talk about signing a contract It's all over." Nancy Trim quickly shifted the conversation to the point, stating the results bluntly.

Then I saw Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady showing excited smiles, and Kurt Laporte sat up straight and looked at Evan Bell, obviously, wait for Evan - After Bell finished his polite words, he planned to take over all the signing matters. This is his job.

Evan Bell stood up, stretched out his right hand, and took Nancy Trim's right hand, "That's really good. I believe it's going to be a great show, this It's also the wisest choice for CBS TV." Evan Bell looked at Chuck Lorre, and after he went back, he told the two screenwriters what he thought, and they processed themselves, and "The Big Bang Theory" would enter Appropriate track, and then start to take off gradually, and finally burst into a dazzling light.

"certainly.

"Nancy Trim's polite remarks about Evan Bell have been bluntly admitted. Just now Evan Bell said 'the most sensible', while Nancy Trim used a firm word." Of course", this is not common at the negotiating table. "Being able to cooperate with Eleven Studio is something that every TV station has been thinking about, isn't it? "

Nancy Trim magnified "The Big Bang Theory" to the company's cooperation, but this sentence itself is not wrong, because "The Big Bang Theory" is the cooperation between CBS and Eleven Studios, but this sentence There is a clear difference between the words spoken by Sam Reid and those spoken by Nancy Trim. Nancy Trim said this, obviously representing the position of the TV station.

"If there are opportunities for cooperation in the future, it would be great." Nancy Trim looked at Evan Bell and said with a smile.

Evan Bell couldn't figure out what medicine Nancy Trim's gourd was selling, but on the surface he said politely, "That's natural. For our small workshop, it's definitely something we can't ask for."

Nancy Trim still held Evan Bell's hand and chuckled twice, "Eleven Studios and Fox TV are working together on several projects, so this is not a small workshop.

"

Fox TV? Several projects? Evan Bell raised his eyebrows. Could it be that CBS TV is also closely following the TV station and became interested in singing talent shows?

"Haha, then I hope to cooperate more with CBS TV station in the future, so that we can continue to be strong." Evan Bell laughed and said haha, still talking politely.

Actually, thinking about it carefully, what Nancy Trim planned in the screening room just now was definitely not just the show "The Big Bang Theory".

The closest partner of Eleven Studio is naturally Fox TV. The four works of "American Idol", "Dancing Forest Hegemony", "Doctor House" and "Prison Break" all make the relationship between the two parties a harmonious one; The TV station is the other extreme. The two sides have never worked together, and they are still a little unhappy with each other. Although the two series "Heroes" and "I'm a Comedy Maniac" have been successful, Jeff Zucker There was never a way to open up and laugh.

As for TV and CBS, it can be regarded as a middle position. However, CBS TV is in a better position than the TV station. TV station and Eleven Studio cooperated on a "Grey's Anatomy", but apart from Disney's relationship, there are not many exchanges between the two parties; and CBS TV only cooperated with Eleven Studio on "Navy Crime Investigation". "Department", but this show is Eleven Studio's first TV series, and the relationship between Viacom, the parent company of CBS TV, and Eleven Studio can be said to be very good - so does Paramount Pictures Brad Gray and Evan Bell, a subsidiary of Viacom, have a very good personal relationship.

Under this circumstance, CBS TV obviously hopes to further develop its relationship with Eleven Studio. The successful signing of "The Big Bang Theory" this time has also made CBS TV second only to Fox TV and Eleven Studio. The closest partner in the field of television.

Then, CBS TV went a step further, grabbed food from Fox TV, and won the copyrights of other singing talent shows from Evan Bell. The hope is naturally greatly increased. Either way, there isn't enough leverage to compete with CBS, and the only competitor is Fox. Therefore, as long as CBS TV has a good rhythm, it can complete further cooperation with Eleven Studio. As for the profit of the singing talent show, it can be seen from the popularity of "American Idol" and the desire of the TV station. CBS TV has no reason to give up.

Thinking of this, I have to admire Nancy Trim's decisiveness. The transfer of "The Big Bang Theory" from Warner Bros. to Eleven Studios is only a recent event, and Nancy Trim will be able to move forward with the flow, and at the same time of reaching a cooperation, it is also carried out for the future. Small layout.

Of course, for now, Nancy Trim has not shown any anxiety, and is obviously planning to take every step of the way, which is much smarter than the TV station. She knows that Evan Bell has no plans to set up a "American Idol" in the short term. The opponent, so every step she takes now is laying the foundation for the future. If it can win the new version of the singing talent show, then it is a victory for CBS TV; even if it cannot, CBS TV will not lose by cooperating with Eleven Studios on excellent dramas. This is an invincible strategy.

No matter what Nancy Trim's plans are, Evan Bell is not in a hurry now, it's good that the old **** is on the ground and waits for it to change. After all, he has always been a seller's market with the initiative.

"Looking forward to in-depth cooperation." Nancy Trim also added meaningfully, and the two of them released their hands.

In the eyes of others, in fact, Nancy Trim and Evan Bell are just a few polite words, who knows that they have already gone round and round in their heads.

However, there is no doubt about the cooperation of "The Big Bang Theory". So far, after the Eleventh Studio cooperated with TV stations to launch "Mad Men", they will cooperate with CBS TV station "The Big Bang Theory". This fall is definitely worth looking forward to.
