Although CCTV is the largest TV station in the country, it is also recognized as one of the more conservative TV stations!

So at this time, Meng Chao also had to admit that in CCTV, which is famous for its conservative style, it is really rare to have a director with a big brain like Hong Guang.

However, Hong Guang's idea was not adopted by Meng Chao, but Meng Chao came up with his own plan: "Director Hong, have you ever thought about simply introducing a record company to sign a singer first, and then let the record company package them, and they should be more familiar with packaging singers than TV stations, right?" ”

Although the current television stations are state-owned enterprises, the vast majority of television stations have not yet developed a record company under the name of Cheng Dù, and even if there is a scale of developing record companies, it is very ordinary, but some private record companies, such as Polygram Records, Columbia Records, Haishan Records, and Fumao Records, have developed better.

As Meng Chao analyzed, although the world network has begun to gradually develop, the record industry has not been completely eliminated, at least a few years of golden age, but at most ten years later, the record industry will become a sunset industry!

Hong Guang was silent for a moment and then said, "Will this practice make our rules questioned by the audience?" ”

Meng Chao persuaded him: "Actually, I have seen the original rules of the Youth Innovation Competition, which only requires singers with original songs, but does not explain that singers who have signed a record company are not allowed, especially there is no requirement that the record company cannot hire someone to create, so there is also a certain amount of room for operation, such as the record company can hire someone to create, and the singer sings the competition live, which can make the performance more mature and the program more interesting. At that time, the record company will directly buy out the copyright of the song, and it will be okay not to show the name of the creator when it is broadcast. ”

Hong Guang thought for a while and said: "It's not that there is no way to do this, after all, our rules are not too clear, and the main theme of the program promotion is only to show that all the participating songs are original songs, but there is really no rule that does not allow singers from record companies to participate, nor is it allowed to ask others to help create, like you said, there is no problem if you don't indicate the name of the songwriter when you broadcast it, but if you do this, wouldn't it be cheaper for the record company?" ”

Meng Chao continued to persuade: "I can't say that, after all, the introduction of the record company can increase the highlights of the show, make the singer more mature, and therefore increase the ratings. Besides, the introduction of a record company may not necessarily be cheaper for others, Director Hong I have an idea! ”

When Hong Guang heard this, he already had great trust in Meng Chao's talent, so he hurriedly said, "What do you think, can you tell me?" ”

Meng Chao said: "Actually, if Director Hong is willing, I can set up a record company, and I just happen to have a lot of new songs in my hand, some of which are not suitable for me to sing by myself, but I can sing them for the contracted singers, I don't know if Director Hong is at ease with the songs I wrote?" ”

"Don't worry! Of course I don't worry, you must know that you are the only one in our Nanyue Division who has won ten lights, and even we have now conducted several regional qualifying competitions, and in several southern divisions, there is not a single singer who can get ten lights like you, do you say I can not believe in your creative ability? ”

Hearing this, Meng Chao said confidently: "In this case, if the song I created is handed over to a singer signed by my own company to sing, does Director Hong think that the ratings of the Youth Innovation Competition will be improved to a certain extent?" ”

"That's for sure!"

Director Hong hurriedly replied, and Meng Chao continued to speak: "Since Director Hong thinks this method is feasible, then I will start preparing to set up a record company as much as possible, sign a suitable singer to make the whole Youth Innovation Competition more interesting, and facilitate more in-depth cooperation with CCTV in the future. ”

Hong Guang showed an incredible expression: "Me? This is not good, after all, I am still working as a full-time director at CCTV, and the style of the station is relatively conservative, so I will not agree to us to go to other private companies for the time being. ”

Meng Chao thought for a while and said: "This is not without room for operation, in fact, whether or not to hang is secondary, the main thing is that I know that Director Hong's relationship with CCTV is very deep, and if the brothers do not rely on Director Hong for development in the circle in the future, it will be difficult to move an inch, especially if its artists, including myself, want to be on TV, the most ideal platform is naturally CCTV, for this reason Director Hong is the core figure of our company, Director Hong must agree to my request, even if you do not take a post, please accept the company's dry shares privately!" ”

In fact, to put it bluntly, Meng Chao has already tasted the sweetness from Director Jia of the Cultural Bureau, and knows the truth that there are people in the officialdom who are easy to operate.

So I learned from Li Cong that this Hong Guang is a well-known relationship in CCTV, although his ability is not first-class, but the deep relationship is enough to make people jaw-dropping, so it is very necessary to use a little dry stock of the record company to firmly put him on his own boat!

The benefits of this are also very obvious, after becoming a minority shareholder of Meng Chao Records, in the future, film promotion, record promotion, and even the company's star-making plan can use Hong Guang's strong resources and contacts in CCTV, so this move is definitely a small fight for big, and it is completely worth paying!

"This ......"

Hong Guang made a look of embarrassment: "It doesn't seem to be good." ”

Meng Chao saw that he was pretending to be a tender vegetable in the old bird, so he didn't debunk it: "How can it be bad?" After getting Hong Dao into our company, our development will be limitless, please Hong Dao can't refuse me! What's more, the brother himself is also very interested in TV variety shows, if Director Hong joins us, maybe in the future, when the mode of separation of TV program production and broadcast becomes more and more popular, our company can still develop variety shows? I don't know if Hong Daoxin doesn't trust his brother's ability in this regard......"

Meng Chao finally threw out the second condition, that is, under the premise that the separation of program production and broadcasting is becoming more and more common in the current operation of domestic TV stations, he can take Hong Guang to create a new variety show in the future, such as "Run, Brother", "Where Are You Going, Dad", "I Am a Singer" and other hot programs in the parallel world in Meng Chao's memory, if there is a program, then for Hong Guang, in addition to real monetary benefits, he can also make a name for himself in the domestic TV industry!
