Chapter 434: The major TV stations that are in turmoil
Jinghua CCTV Building.
In the deputy director's office, Harwin put down his phone and looked at the other people in the room.
In addition to her, there were three middle-aged men sitting on the sofa not far away, all in suits and leather shoes, looking like business elites.
These three people, one is Gao Feng, the channel director of CCTV 1, the other is Dong Jianzhang, the channel director of CCTV 8, and the last is Feng Hai, the director of CCTV 6.
Seeing that Ha Wen finished making a call, Dong Jianzhang, who was sitting on the far side of the left side of the sofa, spoke: "'Hatai, Liu Zixia has agreed?"
The other two also turned their heads to look at Harwin.
"Agreed. Harwin nodded slowly, "Book the Hainan Airlines ticket at 2 o'clock, and we will go to the capital airport in a while, and before 6 o'clock in the evening, we will arrive at the Shangri-La Hotel in Anxi." ”
Gao Feng, who was sitting next to Dong Jianzhang and wearing a pair of glasses, answered: "Hatai, this "Journey to the West" hasn't started filming yet, let's go to the film in a hurry, isn't it ......?"
"It's a bit of a price drop, isn't it?" said Harwin, smiling.
That's what it means. Gao Feng frowned and said, "Our station, eight sets and one set have never been short of TV dramas, you take Director Feng to give Liu Zixia face, why do you want to bring the two of us?"
"Gao Feng, you look at things too one-sidedly. Harvin shook his head and said, "Liu Zixia's new TV series must be taken down, and it must be won with the highest salary." ”
"Why?" Feng Hai's brows also furrowed, and he asked, "With so many excellent TV series, we can sign a better one." ”
"The point is that there is a better one now?"
Harwin said angrily: "A "Love Apartment" has led a trend of imitation, and almost all directors have given up their original style and begun to think about sitcoms, one by one they only want to make money, and they don't think about whether the TV series is good or not. ”
"Zhang Jiping, Chen Kai, Zhang Zhimou...... What about them?"
Dong Jianzhang raised an objection and said: "I heard that they all seem to be filming new TV series now, and the filming is already halfway through, so won't it be enough to sign their film and television dramas?"
"That's right, Wutai!" Gao Feng's eyes lit up and said: "We can sign their TV series, at least the TV series of these directors is a guarantee of ratings, so no one will watch it." ”
"It also depends on what type of TV series they are filming. Harwin felt that something was unclear.
"I know. Feng Haiyi stretched out his hand and said: "Director Zhang Zhimou is filming a police drama, and Director Chen Kai is filming an urban romance drama......"
Feng Hai counted the TV series hosted and filmed by several well-known directors in the entertainment industry.
"You three, you're well prepared!"
Seeing that all three people in the room looked like they were not going to Anxi, Harwin couldn't help but be angry, "But if these dramas are really like what you said, these types of dramas, I really don't want to sign any of them." ”
"Huh?
The three guys looked confused, why were they so resolute?
Ha Wen was silent for a moment and asked, "Don't you know that the National Cultural Propaganda Department is ready to build a brand of traditional Chinese culture?"
Several people glanced at each other and shook their heads in unison.
They really don't know!
"Uh......" Harwin was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that the relevant departments had not announced this matter yet, and it was normal for a few of them not to know.
Thinking of this, Harwin said, "Forget it, it's nothing to tell you. Our country, in recent years, has vigorously developed the cultural and entertainment industry, and has achieved initial results. Next, it is to create a cultural and entertainment business that belongs to our Chinese characteristics, and the traditional cultural brand series is the next development focus of our Chinese cultural and entertainment industry. ”
"Hatai, is this news confirmed?" Dong Jianzhang asked.
"At the end of last month, I went to the Cultural Propaganda Department with Han and Taiwan for a meeting, and there were also leaders of the General Department of Telecommunications at that time, and the main topic was this matter, do you say that this matter can be confirmed?"
As he said this, Harwin rummaged through the pocket of his desk, found a light blue folder, and said:
"The specific content is all on it, you can pass it on yourself, but don't spread this matter, it is estimated that it will not be announced by the state until August and September. ”
"Hatai, don't worry, we won't spread the word. ”
As he spoke, Gao Feng took the folder from Harwin's hand, and the three of them gathered together, carefully looking at every word in the folder.
......
On Shanghai TV, in the director's office, Wu Bing summoned several high-level officials in the station.
"Wu Tai, why are you in such a hurry to find us all. Han Tao, the director of the Shanghai Satellite TV Channel, asked with some curiosity.
""Attack and Defend the Road" was completed this morning, and in the evening, Zixia will have a small finale dinner at the Shangri-La Hotel in Anxi. I have already booked a ticket for 2 o'clock, and Han Tao will go to the airport with me and fly to Anxi together. ”
Wu Bing said as he handled the documents at hand.
"Wu Tai, you're not joking with me, are you?" Han Tao was stunned for a moment and said, "Liu Zixia's movie is finished, what does it have to do with me?"
"You forgot, he still has a "Journey to the West" on hand?"
Wu Bing glared and said: "Recently, the ratings of Orange Fruit Satellite TV have surpassed us again, if you don't sign "Journey to the West" now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to surpass Orange Fruit in the future." ”
"Wu Tai, there are so many TV series shot by excellent directors in China, why do you have to use him Liu Zixia's?"
Deputy Director Zhang's face was a little disapproving, and he continued:
"Besides, this "Journey to the West" was jointly shot by Xia Yue Studio and Jinghua Rongda Film and Television Production Company, Liu Zixia may not have the full copyright of the TV series, and Rongda Film and Television will have to nod when the time comes. ”
"There are many TV series shot by excellent directors in China, but only Liu Zixia's "Love Apartment" can increase the ratings of our Shanghai Satellite TV!"
Wu Bing glanced at Deputy Director Zhang and continued:
"You look at the later introduced "Love Evening Sunny Day" and "Joy Falls from the Sky", which one can reach the ratings created by "Love Apartment"? If you can't reach it, forget it, the ratings are still declining, and it has fallen to 2.4 yesterday, and it looks like it is about to fall to the critical point of last year. You say, can I not be in a hurry?"
Wu Bing's words left Deputy Director Zhang speechless.
A few of the people in the room didn't know what to say, because it was true.
"But, Wu Tai. Han Tao hesitated for a while and said to Wu Bing: ""Love Apartment" can be successful, "Journey to the West" may not be successful, after all, they are two completely different types of TV series. ”
"That's also a hope!" Wu Bing sighed and said, "It's better than just waiting to become the third in ten thousand years again, right?"
"Okay, I'll go book a plane ticket now. Han Tao was persuaded by Wu Bing.
To be honest, these days, watching the ratings of Shanghai Satellite TV drop a little bit every day, my heart is simply dripping blood!
The ratings that have been accumulated so easily have been lost from their fingers little by little, who can accept this matter?
Although there is still a trace of suspicion about Liu Zixia, with "Love Apartment" as the foundation, coupled with Liu Zixia's huge fan base, and "Journey to the West" book friends all over China and even around the world, at least it is a guarantee!
Besides, Wu Bing has now made up his mind to go to Anxi, and he is close to Liu Zixiatao, expressing his desire to sign "Journey to the West" in advance.
No matter how unhappy they are, there is nothing they can do!
......
In addition to CCTV and Shanghai Satellite TV, Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV stations, which have a lot of trouble with Liu Zixia, have also begun to move.
They took the initiative to contact Liu Zixia and expressed their goodwill.
Thinking about it, a "Love Apartment" has become popular all over the country, and at least 9 out of ten people know about this drama, and the super high ratings, no matter which TV station will be red-eyed.
Continuing to work against Liu Zixia like this will not have any impact on others, but will make them lose a lot of opportunities to make a lot of money.
This deal is not worth it!
Now that he is reconciling with Liu Zixia, he is also holding a shameless posture.
In these years, who will not be able to get along with money?
Liu Zixia originally didn't plan to take care of Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV stations, after all, they had previously disqualified Liu Zixia from participating in the new voice, which still made him very angry.
However, Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV stations have a lot of relationships, such as Longwenxing, Wu Xiubo, and Ye Lintao...... In the end, Zhang Minghao was found.
I have to say that Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV stations are still very sincere.
Therefore, Liu Zixia was relieved and reconciled, and also invited Fang Lingkai, the director of Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV stations, to attend the finale dinner of "Attacking and Defending the Road".
As for whether he can arrive before 6 o'clock, then it's no wonder that he can't come, anyway, the invitation has already been sent, and whether he can come or not is Fang Lingkai's business.
......
Jinghua Rongda Film and Television Company is also in the invitation ranks.
After all, they and Xia Yue Studio are cooperative units, and Jinghua Rongda also has a branch in Anxi, Liu Zixia shamelessly threw all the preparations for the dinner to Lin Xuefeng.
For Rongda Film and Television, they are still very reluctant to accept Liu Zixia's behavior of throwing off the shopkeeper, but who calls them bosses happy?
These small soldiers can only work unwillingly.
In fact, Rongda Film and Television has also signed several well-known film and television directors, including Zhang Jiping.
Originally, if the drama "Journey to the West" was filmed by them alone, Zhang Jiping would definitely be the director, after all, his level in the circle is also top-notch.
And as a large-scale mythological drama, there are many characters in "Journey to the West", and Rongda Film and Television itself also has a lot of artists, and they are all looking forward to starring in this drama.
But now that Liu Zixia is inserting such a lever, not to mention the position of director Zhang Jiping, even the wishes of these artists to star in "Journey to the West" have all been disappointed.
Therefore, in the entire Rongda Film and Television, except for Lin Xuefeng and several high-level executives who have no complaints about Liu Zixia, people in other departments are more or less dissatisfied with Liu Zixia.
