Chapter 458: Separation of production and broadcasting

……

Looking at his happy appearance, Guo Shouyun smiled and nodded.

"I am relieved to see that you now have a complete family and a life full of hope!"

"Bruce, thank you. If you hadn't insisted on letting me travel around the world, I'm afraid I'm still living like a walking corpse in San Francisco. It is impossible to meet Hongying and understand the true meaning of happiness!" Martin said sincerely.

Guo Shouyun waved his hand, "Let's talk about this between us... I'm curious, though, how did you get to know each other?"

"Love at first sight!"

"Love at first sight?" Guo Shouyun was stunned. Although Hou Hongying's appearance and figure cannot be said to be ugly, it is by no means the type that can make people fall in love at first sight. However, looking at Matthew's happy death now, he can only understand that the aesthetics of the two sides are really different.

"In 2001, we met on a cruise ship in Victoria, Hong Kong, and I still vividly remember that she was wearing a pink knitted sweater, brown trousers, short ear-length hair, holding Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre in her hand and reading it quietly, the setting sun stretched her figure, leaving a pale golden light and shadow on her body...!"

"Stop...! I don't know you think you're describing the Virgin Mary! Okay, it's enough to know that you're happy, that you're in love! But why didn't you stay in Hong Kong?"

"Hongying's father was seriously ill, and we came back. But I'm glad to be able to come to Huaxia, the life here is what I want, I like it very much!"

"Listen to you, you don't plan to go back to the United States in the future?"

"No! The American family concept is too weak. The relationship between neighbors is also far less intimate than in Huaxia. Moreover, life here is more convenient than in the United States. Everyone was very welcoming to me and I loved the place, especially the food. From now on, this will be my hometown!"

Looking at his appearance, Guo Shouyun knew that he was telling the truth.

"What about LinkedIn? That's our common cause!"

"Bruce, I'm relieved to hand over LinkedIn to you. ”

"You're really going to shirk responsibility. But how do you live in China?"

"I work as an English teacher at a middle school here, although not as much as I did in the United States. However, Huaxia's expenses are not large, and the teacher's income is enough to meet our living needs. In case something that requires a lot of money, I also have LinkedIn shares to back it up!"

Guo Shouyun nodded, looking at Martin Alexander with a smile on his face, and his expression showed satisfaction and calmness.

"Martin, to be honest, I really envy you! This kind of life of being able to get along with my family day and night, not having to worry about life, and being free and comfortable is also what I dream, but it's a pity...!" Guo Shouyun sighed.

"Bruce, my abilities are limited, and to be able to start LinkedIn with you is already God's favor. But you're different. You were born a genius, and your mission is to be a world-class business leader who drives the advancement and development of the Internet and technology. ”

Your words sound more like a comfort. But that's fine, at least it makes me feel less uncomfortable!"

What you can't get is the best. After tasting the rich but busy days, Guo Shouyun now seems to yearn for a free and easy hermit life. But he also knew that he would never have this day in his life. Heaven may seem unfair, but sometimes it's fair, and if you gain something, you lose others!

"Let's stay and eat together in the evening, Hongying's cooking skills are very good!"

Guo Shouyun nodded, "This can be seen from your size." … By the way, it's still early, why don't we go buy some materials together? It just so happened that when I came, I also brought two bottles of '90 Latour, and I forgot them in the car when I came up, so I'll pick them up later. ”

"Wait a minute, I'll go talk to Hongying!" Martin nodded and stood up.

"Okay!"

Martin Alexander, who was allowed, changed his clothes and went downstairs with Guo Shouyun. Then, under his guidance, I went to the nearby vegetable market, bought some vegetables and meat, and returned home to get busy.

Hou Hongying's craftsmanship is really good, and the local home-cooked dishes in Tanzhou are full of color, flavor, and flavor. Because she was still breastfeeding, she couldn't drink alcohol. So the two bottles of tens of thousands of Latour all went into the stomachs of Guo Shouyun, Matthew and Martin.

Considering that people still have children, Guo Shouyun did not stay too late. After putting a piece of Hetian jade safety lock that he had prepared before coming to the little one, he was sent out of the house by Martin.

When I got back to the hotel, it was half past nine in the evening. Guo Shouyun didn't alarm Zeng Liqing and them, and went back to his room and fell asleep.

The next morning, everyone sat down in the hotel restaurant for breakfast.

"Did your visit to Mango TV go smoothly yesterday?"

Guo Shouyun asked casually after swallowing the soy milk mixed with the chewed fritters in his mouth.

"Smooth!" Zeng Li said.

"Wei Wenbin didn't ask about cooperation?"

"Had a brief chat at dinner in the evening. ”

"What did he say?"

"I said that I was willing to cooperate with us, but the specific conditions were not discussed. ”

Guo Shouyun nodded clearly, and after a brief thought, "Hurry up and eat, go up and clean up after eating, and leave on time at eight o'clock!"

"Yes!"

After breakfast, everyone went upstairs to bring the materials, and after tidying up, they drove towards Mango TV. Because I already had my first visit yesterday, this time I am familiar with the road. The urban area of Tanzhou was far less congested than in later generations, and they arrived at their destination at nine o'clock.

The Mango Desk had obviously made preparations in advance, and when they arrived, the staff guided them to the prepared conference room.

After a short time, a middle-aged man in a black suit strode in the door. Seeing Guo Shouyun, he took the first step and stretched out his right hand, and then said enthusiastically: "Welcome Mr. Guo to visit our Mango TV, your presence is our honor!"

"Mr. Wei has a good reputation! This time I came to ask for cooperation!"

"You're welcome. To be able to cooperate with the famous Mr. Guo, we can't ask for it in Mango Terrace... You may be seated!"

"Please!"

After the two sides sat down as guests and hosts, Guo Shouyun, who had more important things waiting for him, was not willing to be verbose, and said directly: "Mr. Wei, about cooperation, I think our personnel have already told you yesterday, I don't know if Mr. Wei and Mango TV are willing to cooperate?"

"Of course we are willing to cooperate with Mr. Guo. However, Mr. Guo also knows that the current Chinese entertainment industry, especially variety shows, does not have a policy of separating production and broadcasting. So, we're in a quandary!"

Guo Shouyun nodded, "Understandable... However, Mr. Wei is also a veteran of the Huaxia media industry for many years, and he wants to know more about the past of the industry than I do!"

Wei Wenbin's heart moved, "What does Mr. Guo mean...?"

"It's simple. There is an old saying in China: 'Taking history as a mirror can know the rise and fall, and taking people as a mirror can make you dress'. According to my understanding, in the late 80s, Huaxia first realized the separation of production and broadcasting in the field of television. With the emergence of private TV companies such as Hairun Film and Television and Superstar Film and Television, TV stations have gradually withdrawn from the field of TV production. There are also classic TV series such as "Beijing People in New York" and "Longing", and movies are even more so. ”

"Except for movies, TV series. In 99, Guangguang Media produced the first entertainment information program "Entertainment Live" in the mainland. And the radio ~ television, which dominates the development of the entire Chinese media industry, has also been exploring the road of separating production and broadcasting in the mainland. Although the separation of production and broadcast of variety shows has not yet appeared, smart people can see that this is the general trend in the future. ”

After a pause, Guo Shouyun smiled faintly, and after glancing at the middle-aged man sitting on Wei Wenbin's left with a slightly chubby figure and wearing a light yellow jacket, "In addition, Mr. Wei asked Mr. Ouyang to be the helmsman of Mango Satellite TV, and let go of Mango Satellite TV to make it completely entertaining, doesn't he just hope to make achievements in variety shows? In this case, why should Mr. Wei refuse to cooperate? Moreover, if Mr. Wei can make achievements in the separation of production and broadcasting, and provide some experience for the development of Huaxia's media industry, I think it will be beneficial to you and Mango TV!"

Looking at the young man with a smile on his face, a confident look in his eyes, a steady temperament, and a chattering voice, Wei Wenbin couldn't help but sigh in his heart, there is no vanity under his fame.

"Mr. Guo's golden words are indeed thought-provoking, but the risk is proportional to the benefit, putting aside the policy of separating production and broadcasting, the price of 10 million for an episode of "Super Girl" created by Penguin Film and Television is too high for us. And there is no shortage of talent shows across the country, but their profits are hardly satisfying. ”

"They are them, Penguin is different from other film and television companies, we can invite a luxury mentor group including Na ~ Ying, Guo Fu ~ Cheng, Sun Yan ~ Zi for "Super Girl", just this gimmick can create enough attention for it!"

Looking at the president of Warner Records Greater China sitting next to Guo Shouyun, Wei Wenbin is convinced of this. It is precisely because of this that he is willing to sit here and talk about it when he hears 10 million episodes, otherwise such a high price would have been rejected a long time ago.

"If Mr. Wei thinks it's risky, we can also work together in a different way!"

"Oh, I want to hear about it!"

"We Penguin Films took out a price of 2 million for an episode and rented the prime time of Mango Satellite TV at 7:40~9:00 on Saturday night. In this way, Mango TV can get a stable income of more than 20 million, and it can also increase the popularity and attractiveness of your TV station in the country with our programs! But at the price, the commercial income generated by "Super Girl" has nothing to do with Mango!"

After thinking for a moment, Wei Wenbin said with a solemn expression: "We need to discuss before we can give Mr. Guo an answer!"

"Okay, I'm willing to wait!, but preferably not too long!"

"Of course!"
