Chapter 189: Making a fortune with a muffled voice
When Ye Tian took the contract to Qiu Degen to sign, Qiu Degen's expression was wonderful, he never dreamed that the broadcast rights of "Millionaire" could be sold for 18 million Hong Kong dollars, and it was only a country in the United Kingdom, he was happy and relieved and regretted at the same time, a joke that day, half of the money was given to Ye Tian, looking up at Ye Tian, Qiu Degen was secretly vigilant, and he must be vigilant again and again in the future.
Ye Tian saw that Qiu Degen had not moved his pen for a long time, and quipped: "Uncle, are you still satisfied with the selling price?" β
Qiu Meiqi's eyes were about to pop out, and she couldn't wait to fly over immediately and ask, is there something wrong with this ghost, what a high price does it cost to broadcast rights, is it that his head is in water, let Ye Tian make a contribution in vain, and get half of it, nine million huge funds!
"Tianzai, how did you do it?" After signing, Qiu Degen asked his doubts.
The British are arrogant and arrogant, especially in front of the Hong Kong people, there is a psychological advantage, the senior officials of the British government in Hong Kong are all British, and the Chinese want to take the position, it is impossible, the four major detectives who were famous ten years ago are only inspectors, and there are foreigners on top.
Ye Tian explained: "Britain is different from Hong Kong, although Hong Kong's economic development has been good in recent years, but after all, it is a city, it cannot be compared with the United Kingdom, it is impossible for us here, the developed countries of Britain and the United States are very common, and the market there is many times larger than ours." β
Qiu Degen nodded slowly, he also understood this truth, but this million is too dazzling, if it were him, he would never spend so much money to buy the broadcast rights of a program, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, ATV has been in debt all year round, Xu Xiaoming vowed to make ATV turn losses into profits. The slogan was loud, but the actual effect was not great, after Ye Tian joined ATV, he did things in a high-profile manner and behaved in a low-key manner, and he planned to spend some money to let Ye Tian buy a lesson. Who would have thought that this kid would really make his first pot of gold.
Qiu Meiqi was jealous, and muttered in her heart: "It's just that the blind cat has met a dead mouse!" β
Ye Tian reminded: "The wireless ratings have been suppressed in the past few days, according to reliable sources, they are preparing a Jin Yong martial arts drama, which should be for "Millionaire", does ATV have any countermeasures?" β
Qiu Degen said to himself: "ATV has made such a big fortune, this should be vigorously promoted!" β
Ye Tian frowned secretly, the ratings of "Millionaire" broke the record and was good, but it could only solve the urgent need for a while. After the audience gets used to it, it will return to the embrace of wireless, according to Wang Jing, what wireless is preparing is "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", his father Wang Tianlin is the producer of the series, the power of this drama, no one understands it better than Ye Tian, an eternal classic. It has been put for decades, and it is still thriving. The number of online on-demand broadcasts far exceeds classics such as "Shanghai Tang" and "Hero Huo Yuanjia", Qiu Degen does not pay attention to it, and sooner or later he will suffer.
"Uncle, I'll go back first."
"Go ahead!"
Ye Tian's departure is exactly what Qiu Degen wants, he wants to publicize the news, and the gimmick can't be given to Ye Tian. It's the entire ATV, and the sale of ATV's broadcast rights for 180,000 is the theme, as for Ye Tian, he can only be used as an ATV foil.
As soon as Qiu Degen made a move, it could be called earth-shattering. The whole of Hong Kong is paying attention to ATV, and every Chinese is proud, based on historical reasons, the Chinese in Hong Kong have always been unable to hold their heads up in front of the British, whether it is economic or political, it is the British who say it, and the main foreign banks in Hong Kong also belong to the British.
Li Jiacheng's acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa, originally he was just an ordinary real estate businessman, when the acquisition of "Hutchison" was announced, he immediately rose to the height of "national hero", worshiped by all Hong Kong people, the company's stock rose in a blowout, Li Chaoren made a fortune like this, and now the British BBC acquired the broadcast rights of ATV programs, although it is not as good as Li Jiacheng, but it is enough to make them proud, people who have not watched "Millionaire" are very curious, and they want to see what the program acquired by the British is.
On the same day, the ratings of "Millionaire" broke through the 70% mark, Ye Tian immediately decided to do a rebroadcast the next day, and the ratings also reached 35%, far higher than ATV's carefully created TV series.
Everyone in Hong Kong knows that ATV has a lottery, and even the host Chen Baixiang was nominated for the best host of the year award, but Ye Tian was ignored, and three days later, he quietly took a check of nine million from ATV and made a fortune in a muffled voice.
β¦β¦
Golden Harvest Busan Road Studio, which is a slope land backed by a mountain, opposite the broken Diamond Mountain, Diamond Mountain has Huada Photography Field, Daguan Photography Field, but it has been declining, Golden Harvest Studio, filmmakers are on the way.
After Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang left Shaw Brothers, they applied to the government for a piece of land to build a studio, and not far from Axe Mountain Road is Clear Water Bay Road, from which this winding mountain road can go directly to Clear Water Bay Shaw Brothers Cinemas, so Golden Harvest Studios is at the door of Shaw Brothers!
Ye Tian drove to Busan Road, he came to visit the senior management of Golden Harvest, here is not only the Golden Harvest studio, but also the headquarters of Golden Harvest, the public relations staff has been waiting for a long time, Ye Tian laughed at himself, signed the contract attitude is different, the last time they met, He Guanchang was personally accompanied, and now only a small staff member of the public relations department is sent.
After passing through the recording studio, the Golden Harvest staff said with a smile: "Li Xiaolong was supervising the dubbing inside, and when he was tired, he lay on that sofa!" β
"This one?"
"Yes."
Ye Tian couldn't help but touch it with his hand, and finally simply sat down, there was no special feeling, a familiar building outside the window suddenly broke into view, Ye Tian stood up in surprise, in "Plan A", Cheng Long took a shot of jumping from the five-story bell tower without safety measures, this bell tower is not the one in the movie!
The staff of Golden Harvest solemnly introduced: "In front is the main building, and across the main building in the piece room, is the office of Mr. Zou and Mr. He. β
Ye Tian smiled, what kind of expression is this, as if the place where Zou Wenhuai works is a holy place that cannot be crossed casually! Isn't it the office building, out of the recording studio, the bell tower is in front of you, Ye Tian walked to the bottom of the bell tower and kicked the loess on the ground with his foot, it was very hard, and when he wanted to jump with Cheng Long, he would be specially processed!
A slope road appeared in front of him, Ye Tian saw a glass house and asked, "What is that place?" β
The staff of Golden Harvest said: "Opposite the glass house is the office building, where the Propaganda Department and the Accounting Department are all located. β
Ye Tian shook his head, he was still complacent about the company's exaggerated territory a while ago, but now that he thinks about it, it's really naΓ―ve, if Jiahe is the emperor in the film company, his Oriental Entertainment is a beggar.
Passing by the office building, a small parking lot appeared in front of it.
"Is this a parking lot?" Ye Tian was quite angry in his heart, there was obviously a parking lot inside, and he asked him to park the car outside.
The staff of Golden Harvest hurriedly explained: "This is only for leaders and big-name celebrities to park, such as Cheng Long, Hong Jinbao and others can park their cars here." β
Ye Tian is sympathetic, even a parking lot has privileges, his eyes skimmed the parking lot, a high-rise building appeared in front of him, it should be where the headquarters of Jiahe is located, looking from afar, there are several film houses and costume streets behind, the costume street is very easy to distinguish, just look at the appearance, a map appears in his mind, Ye Tian secretly smacked his tongue, the studio of Jiahe is really big!
However, after the return, the government will reclaim this piece of land for another development, Golden Harvest's good days are over, it has planned to move to Tseung Kwan O, but it was intercepted by several companies, and the bidding failed, Golden Harvest not only lost the Busan Road studio, but also lost the Tseung Kwan O studio in the mainland, and has been in a slump ever since!
Thinking about it like this, Ye Tian's heart was much more balanced, and he said with a smile: "Let's go, go see your general manager, Mr. Zou!" β
The Golden Harvest staff reminded: "It's lunch time. β
Ye Tian looked up at the sun, it was really not the right time, and asked again: "Where are you on the set of "Shushan"?" β
"There's a flat area high up in front of you, and the studio is set up there."
"You go back, I'll just take a walk."
"Okay!"
Ye Tian sent away the small staff and set off towards the high ground ahead, and saw many signboards one after another, most of them were Jiahe's satellite companies, and the studio was in sight, saying that it was a studio, but in fact, it was to set up some sets around.
Entering the scope of the crew, Ye Tian immediately found an acquaintance, Yuan Di was chatting with a man in the prime of life, and stepped forward gently, the two talked about action design, Ye Tian didn't understand this aspect of knowledge at all, it sounded like a book from heaven, but the man on the other side could chat with Yuan Tong so speculatively, he must also be a well-known action director.
Chatting and chatting, Yuan Yi put on a posture of drawing his sword, and finally found Ye Tian.
"Tianzai!"
Ye Tiandao: "Be surprised! β
Yuan Yan smiled: "When did you come?" β
"Just now!" Ye Tian is more interested in strong men, he is filming martial arts dramas, but he happens to lack action guidance, and said tentatively: "Who is this?" β
Yuan Di introduced: "This Cheng Xiaodong, the action director of the crew of "Shushan", he designed the action for me just now. β
"It turns out that Mr. Cheng, fortunately! Fortunately! Ye Tian was pleasantly surprised, Xu Xiaodong of course he had heard of it, Xu Ke's right-hand man, this is a potential stock, Xu Ke directed the first "A Chinese Ghost Story", and the second part let this Cheng Xiaodong take the lead, and it really lived up to expectations, "A Chinese Ghost Story Sequel" was very popular.
Cheng Xiaodong said with a smile: "I have also heard of Mr. Ye's name. β
Ye Tian handed over a business card: "I have long heard that Mr. Cheng is proficient in action design, let's talk about it?" βοΌ
Cheng Xiaodong took the business card and replied apologetically: "Don't mean it, I'm afraid I won't have time until the evening." β
"No problem, don't talk about the night, even in the early hours of the morning, I have to wait."
Ye Tian warmly invited, Cheng Xiaodong was embarrassed to refuse, nodded with a smile, and agreed to Ye Tian's appointment in the evening.
Yuan Yi smiled and asked, "Tianzai, are you here to find Senior Brother?" β
Ye Tian said with a grin: "Senior brother asked me to come over to Mr. Zou to discuss the schedule of "Five Lucky Stars". β
Cheng Xiaodong's face changed, as soon as Ye Tian opened his mouth, he was a big man like Hong Jinbao and Zou Wenhuai, and it seemed that the background was not simple. (To be continued......)
