Chapter 173: Stephen Chow

"Li's TV changed hands, Lin Qi became the new boss"

"Hong Kong's TV Industry Makes Waves Again, New Venture Group Spent a Total of 270 Million Yuan to Wholly Acquire Leigh's TV"

"Lin Qi became the main Li, indicating that he is only in the global market, not just staring at TVB"

The news that Leigh's TV was acquired by the New Venture Department and became a subsidiary of the New Venture Film and Television Entertainment Company undoubtedly caused a huge response in Hong Kong. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

"Leigh has changed hands. ”

"Ermai TV, what does it matter if it is easy to be the master? Anyway, everyone watches TVB. ”

"This time it's different,The owner of the acquisition of Li's TV is a new upstart and new entrepreneurial group that has risen in recent years。 ”

"Really? Hong Kong's television media are about to re-emerge as a rivalry. ”

"If you have more money than money, you are still optimistic about Boss Lin. ”

"Not necessarily, TVB has formed a monopoly, many viewers habitually turn on the TV is TVB's channel, only when the program is super boring, will they change to Li's to see if the program is better. ”

"TVB can get up, isn't it because the programs are better and richer? If Li's money is burned, the program may not be worse than TVB. If you put out a better program in a row, you will naturally win the ratings. ”

Although Li's TV was founded much earlier than TVB, for a long time, the monthly rent of 25 yuan per month was mainly aimed at the wealthy area.

At the beginning of its establishment, TVB launched an offensive that as long as there was a TV set that could receive a signal, it could provide free programs, and quickly conquered most of Hong Kong's TV market.

Later, although Lidi made changes, such as turning on the Chinese channel, and updating the equipment, so that the audience does not need to connect to the cable network, only need to have a TV and antenna to watch for free.

But this change was too late, so that TVB has long become the preferred channel for mainstream viewers in Hong Kong, and even those old customers in the wealthy area feel that Li can't compare with TVB's programs at all.

Although, after Li's appointment of Chinese management, there was a strong counterattack. At the end of the 70s, relying on popular TV series such as "Silkworm Transformation", it once surpassed TVB in ratings, but after all, its capital is not as strong as TVB, so the offensive is unsustainable because of lack of money.

After Li's change of ownership, not to mention anything else, the capital strength of the parent company alone has surpassed all of Li's previous shareholders.

After a large amount of capital injection from the TV station, a new round of production of high-quality TV series will be launched. In addition, there will be three new channels: TV dramas, anime, and movies.

Through market segmentation and dislocation competition, we will win TVB.

You must know that in the past, TV stations were all comprehensive channels, including news, weather forecasts, TV dramas, anime, interviews, variety shows, documentaries, sports and other programs. TVB's absolute advantage is not only reflected in its ability to make its own dramas, but also in any program such as variety shows, news, sports, etc., which are all a few streets of Li.

And Li's occasionally relied on a few TV series to grab back a little market, but after watching Li's TV series, the audience quickly changed the channel, because, for other programs, Li's is still too bad.

Lin Qi is not ready to do big news, variety shows, sports and other channels. These programs are not very significant, Hong Kong is not the center of world news, and there is no valuable big news to sell to the world. Variety shows are the same, the cultural traditions of different countries are different, so the videos of variety shows can only be broadcast on their own TV stations, and it is basically difficult to sell.

Physical education...... Whoever wants to advocate the creation of a program on the subject will kill him! Sports are losing money all over the world, and they will also lose money in the 21 st century. How do you describe sports? Spending 1 billion yuan to monopolize the exclusive copyright of a certain sports event, and then, the income generated by the live broadcast copyright of the event is only tens of millions of yuan a year. No matter how you look at sports, you are also losing money and making money.

Well, maybe some big international brands will sponsor, sneakers, sportswear and other manufacturers, are very keen to sponsor sports stars and sports events. However, Lin Qi is not interested in competing with Nike and Adidas, so sports investment will be a forbidden area. For the copyright of sports programs, we will never buy the latest and most expensive live broadcast rights, but buy relatively cheap second-hand broadcasts. Because, the uncles who love to watch sports, Lin Qi can't afford to wait.

The establishment of these three professional channels is to further recruit a large number of employees and expand the scale of the television station.

Therefore, not long after receiving the capital increase, Li's TV began to advertise for jobs.

"Once upon a time, we called Leigh's TV, or RTHK. From now on, we will have a new name, Star TV. New Future, New Challenges, New Opportunities......"

"Boutique dramas are powerful. Xingchen TV, the pursuit of cinematic quality. World-class boutique drama. ”

"Hong Kong's first-ever animation channel. A large number of high-quality animation, original animation, industry information. ”

"Movie channel, you can watch movies at home. The freshest movie and film review information every day, the most professional insiders, tell you what a movie is. ”

In the commercial, the magnificent special effects show off to the audience without money. At the same time, the most concerned in the advertisement is the number of recruits, and the number of recruits will reach more than 500 people.

In particular, if you have a history of mixing in the circle, you don't need to be popular, and you will be given priority admission. With the release of the advertisement, not only the audience is already looking forward to the change after the renaming of Li's TV.

People who want to get a job in a TV station, or who have a dream of stardom, have begun to submit resumes.

……

"Ah Xing, are you really planning to go to Lily again?" asked Tony Leung, a friend in the same bedroom.

"Of course...... Stephen Chow said a little sourly, "With you, luck has been sucked away for you." It's better to give it a try at Li's, I was still a special actor in Li's. If you don't leave, you may become a star who plays a formal role. ”

The so-called special actor is also Stephen Chow who put gold on his face, in fact, he ran through the trick in Li's TV station's self-made drama "When IQ is Mature". In the cast list of the play, Stephen Chow's name was not seen at all, and he did not sign a formal contract with Stephen Chow. If Li's signed Stephen Chow, he would not have signed up for the wireless artist training class to try his luck.

Stephen Chow and Tony Leung have known each other since childhood, and their family backgrounds are not very good, and they worked outside to make a living in their early teens. The two sold electrical appliances together and delivered food together. During that period, Stephen Chow daydreamed all day long, talked to Tony Leung about the film and television industry, and said that he wanted to be a big star. And Tony Leung was completely dragged into the water by Stephen Chow, and he unintentionally became a film and television star.

Because he wants to become a big star, he naturally keeps paying attention to the news trends in the film and television industry. Previously, Stephen Chow saw the advertisement for the registration of the 11th wireless artist training class, so he pulled his friend Tony Leung to sign up together. As a result, Tony Leung was favored by the interviewer Wang Tianlin, while Stephen Chow regrettably failed.

Fortunately, Stephen Chow's other neighbor, Qi Meizhen, has known Stephen Chow since childhood. Because, the glasses store opened by Qi Meizhen's family is downstairs from Stephen Chow's house, and Stephen Chow will pass by every day when he goes up and down the stairs, so he is naturally very familiar. After Stephen Chow was brushed off, he relied on Qi Meizhen's help to become a student of the 11th night shift of wireless.

Of course, a genius like Tony Leung, who was taken seriously on the spot and had not yet graduated from the wireless training class, was already a genius who often played important roles in the crew. To put it simply, Tony Leung has signed a good contract before graduating, and he is considered an artist with a guaranteed basic salary contract, and the salary for participating in the performance is calculated separately.

And because Stephen Chow is on the night shift, even if he is taken care of by acquaintances such as Tony Leung and Qi Meizhen, because he is not optimistic in the first place, his future is uncertain after graduation.

"Oh well. Tony Leung thought for a while, took out a letter of money, and said, "This is the salary just paid by wireless." Even if I invest in you, the future star, don't forget about your wealth and wealth, haha!"

"One life and two brothers, they will never forget their buddies when they come out. Stephen Chow was a little moved, although he was a little jealous because Tony Leung was selected and he was unsuccessful. However, after all, the two are still good buddies, Stephen Chow has a characteristic, and after he got mixed up, he was also nepotism. If he is good to him, Stephen Chow will also give him a reward. For example, the list of shareholders of his company is mainly Stephen Chow's mother and sisters. Also, some of the characters in Stephen Chow's movies are not professional actors at all, but directly Stephen Chow's former neighbors and classmates. There is a kind of taste of a person attaining the Tao and a chicken and dog ascending to heaven.
