653 [Ambition is rampant]

The next day, the newspaper was freshly released, and a film critic commented on ATV's "Bao Qingtian" and TVB's "Excalibur and Magic Knife". Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"The new wireless drama "Excalibur and Magic Knife" has created a new era of martial arts dramas. The play is produced by the well-known producer Xiao Wei, Xiao Daxia has rich experience and excellent works, such as "Dragon Babu", "The Condor Heroes", "Chu Liuxiang" and so on, which are widely welcomed by audiences at home and abroad.

"Excalibur and Magic Knife" is produced by him, naturally extraordinary, the story of the play is suspenseful and twisty, exciting, fierce martial arts, funny and lively, spectacular scenes, showing the ugliness of human nature, distorting right and wrong, and the dark side of power struggle, which is a rare martial arts drama masterpiece.

TVB carefully cooked this martial arts feast, which is really grateful. What's even more admirable is that TVB abandoned well-known red stars this time and focused on cultivating young talents.

Known as the 'Galaxy Seven Stars', Wang Minming, Au Weilin, Liu Biyi, Wu Qianwei, Cai Jiali, Ou Ruiwei, Zhang Meizhi and other young players played the starring role for the first time, and their performance was outstanding, not losing to Li Hanzhi, Huang Yuncai, Bao Fang and other old actors, it can be seen that there are ...... successors of wireless"

"ATV's new drama "Bao Qingtian", the first unit of "Quanmei Case" was broadcast last night. This story is widely circulated in the Chinese world and is familiar to everyone, so it is not easy to shoot well.

But because this drama was planned by Mr. Summer, and it is said that the script was also reviewed by him himself, the public is full of expectations for this drama, hoping that ATV can shoot something new and rejuvenate the old story.

But it's a pity that the ATV version of "The Beauty Case" is old-fashioned, mediocre, and not exciting. The story lacks innovation, the plot lacks logic, and the actors play out of order.

Especially Bao Gong played by Zhong Jinghui, not to mention whether the image matches or not, just talking and acting are extremely unqualified. The demeanor is not like filming, but more like acting in a drama. It's incompatible with costume dramas, and it's ...... to make people jump out of the play."

……

"What do you mean, I took the wireless "Excalibur and Demon Knife" to the sky, and stepped our "Bao Qingtian" into the mud. Even if you have a good relationship with wireless, you can't bully people like this!" Zhong Chuhong couldn't help but be angry for Xia after reading today's newspaper.

She watched "Bao Qingtian" yesterday, and it was obviously very good-looking, as if it was said in the newspaper. The author of this article has a crooked heart, and it is clear that he is deliberately biased in favor of wireless.

"Alright, don't be angry. The eyes of the masses are bright, and they know in their hearts whether a play looks good or not. Seeing her angry like this, Summer smiled and persuaded.

As soon as he guessed, he knew that this kind of article was written by Shao Yifu, praising himself and belittling others. But summer doesn't care. It's not like saying a few good words to make people believe it these days. If that's the case, then the movie will be profitable. No matter how bad the shooting is, the advertisement will be loud when the time comes.

It's a pity that this is not the case at all now, and the people of Hong Kong are the most difficult to serve. If a drama is not good, even if there are big-name stars joining, the box office of the movie will still be bleak. For example, Cheng Long's "Weilong Detective".

It's the same with TV dramas, dramas starring first-line TV stars may not necessarily win high ratings. For example, "Detective Gao Lunbu" and "Golden Branch Desire 2", although the actors are all pillars of TVB, their word-of-mouth and ratings are rotten.

The key is to rely on quality to speak. If the drama is good, even if there are no big-name stars, it can still become popular, such as TVB's recently popular "Walled City Heroes", which is completely starring second- and third-tier artists, but it has received a hot response and is known as the most sincere work of TVB in recent years.

Summer believes that with the high quality of the series "Bao Qingtian", he will definitely be able to defeat the unknown "Excalibur and Demon Knife" and regain the seven-point champion.

……

"Yes, yes, these old friends really give face. After seeing the article in the newspaper, Shao Yifu smiled with satisfaction.

"You are still a good person, you are a good person, you have a high wrist, so many media and film critics are looking at you. Le Yiling complimented.

"Sir, those advertisers are no longer fussing when they see our ratings and these praise articles in the newspapers. Chen Qingxiang also smiled.

"Hmph! They can make trouble if they want, and they don't make trouble if they don't want to, how can there be such a cheap thing. Tell them that now that I've regained the ratings throne at seven o'clock, of course the advertising fee will have to increase a bit. Shao Yifu sneered again.

A few days ago, ATV defeated TVB's unit drama "City Story" with "Several Degrees of Sunset Red", and snatched the first place in the ratings at seven o'clock, which lasted for nearly a month.

The ratings of the wireless seven-point file plummeted, and advertisers were naturally dissatisfied and took the opportunity to reduce the price, so the current advertising fee of the wireless seven-point file is only 30% of the original one, and it has earned millions of Hong Kong dollars less. This naturally made Shao Yifu very uncomfortable, and there was a fire in his heart. Now, the ratings throne of the seven-o'clock file has finally been snatched back, and he naturally has to settle accounts with these advertisers.

"Sir, how much do you think is appropriate?" asked Chen Qingxiang.

"At least it must return to the level of a month ago!" Shao Yifu blurted out without thinking.

"......" Chen Qingxiang was speechless for a while.

A month ago, the ratings of wireless at seven o'clock could make ATV vomit blood, and if wireless has eighty percent, ATV does not even have twenty percent, so wireless is naturally qualified to ask for high advertising fees.

But right now, the difference between the ratings of wireless and ATV is not that big. In this case, it is a bit difficult to ask for such a high advertising fee. Those advertisers are not idiots, and it is impossible to agree to such an exorbitant price.

"Sizz, I think it's a bit difficult to get back to the level of a month ago, so how about mentioning the previous 60% first? Chen Qingxiang persuaded.

It was too hard to get to the level of a month ago at once, and he didn't have the confidence to convince those advertisers.

"You're stupid. Tell them that this is the price to pay now. Otherwise, when the ratings crush ATV in the future, he wants to buy advertising time again, and the price will rise by five percent!" Shao Yifu pointed out.

When Chen Qingxiang heard this, he nodded and withdrew.

"Sir, Mr. Chen's ability to do things is really weak, and you have to teach you such a simple thing. After he left, Le Yiling said with a little disdain.

"I also don't think he's very capable, so I'm going to choose another general manager recently. Shao Yifu nodded.

When Le Yiling heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, isn't this a good opportunity for herself!

"Ah Ling, I think you are very good, and you have the potential to be a general manager. Shao Yifu said again, "But I rashly promoted you to the general manager, I'm afraid that others will not be convinced." In this way, if you can win this seven-o'clock ratings battle beautifully, I will consider promoting you to general manager. ”

"Yes, sir, I promise to get the job done. When Le Yiling heard this, she replied happily, "Sir, I hope that the Galaxy Seven Stars can be promoted on "Happy Tonight", and I also hope that you can approve me for a float, and I hope to take the stars to ride the float on the street and make it popular!"

The so-called fame and fortune are moving, and under the temptation of the general manager's throne, Le Yiling also turned her brain quickly and came up with one good idea after another.

"Okay, I'll satisfy you all. Shao Yifu is rare to be generous, "Look at who will say I'm stingy in the future!"

Seeing that Shao Yifu was so supportive of her, Le Yiling couldn't help but be grateful, "Sir, please rest assured, I will help you firmly guard the seven o'clock gear!!"

……

Le Yiling then received a float, and then took the crew of "Excalibur and Magic Knife", got on the float, and beat gongs and drums all the way to parade along the street. Such a huge propaganda naturally attracted the public to stop and watch curiously.

Le Yiling also asked the "Galaxy Seven Stars" to stand on the float and sing and dance, using all their skills to attract the attention of the people, so as to promote the play "Excalibur and Magic Knife".

Poor Galaxy Seven Stars rushed to shoot a few days of filming, and he was so tired that he couldn't open his eyelids, and he had to be brought over to help with publicity. It's just a circus monkey. The seven of them were complaining, no one complained, and they were very wronged.

Le Yiling was in order to be the general manager, and at all costs, she scolded in the back, "Sing louder, haven't you eaten?

As a manager, she is full of words and has a high position. Although Galaxy Seven Stars is a newcomer to be praised in the stage, he is still a third-tier artist, how dare he be disobedient, so he can only endure his grievances and force his face to laugh, but in his heart, he has greeted the eight generations of Le Yiling's ancestors several times.

The float drove all the way from Broadcasting Road in Kowloon to Mong Kok, and then crossed the Harbour Tunnel, making a lot of hype around Central and Causeway Bay, and tossed until about 6 p.m. before ending the publicity. The Seven Stars of the Galaxy sang so loudly that their voices were hoarse, and they collapsed in their seats and went back like mud.

And their hard work and publicity did have some effect, the ratings report came out in the evening, the ratings of "Excalibur and Magic Knife" were five into five, and the ratings of "Bao Qingtian" were four into four, and wireless still won the game.

"Ah Ling, you did a really good job. Shao Yifu saw the ratings report and smiled with satisfaction.

"It's all thanks to the Jazz's support. Le Yiling also smiled happily.

As long as this good momentum lasts for a few more days, she will be victorious as the general manager, and she is excited to think about it.

"Good news, sir, all but one of the advertisers disagrees with the price we offered. Chen Qingxiang also reported happily.

As for those who disagree, hmph, sooner or later there will be a day when they will regret it. When the time comes, it will just kneel down and beg me, and I will not cooperate with it anymore. Shao Yifu sneered. (To be continued.) )
