Gu Weiqi continued: "Our 'Phoenix TV', referred to as 'FTV', do you have any comments or suggestions? ”

Huang Xizhao nodded and said, "This name has a profound meaning, I think it's good." ”

"That's it."

Gu Weiqi said again: "We Phoenix TV has a Chinese station and an English station, and I plan to call it 'Pearl Channel' and 'International Channel'. In the future, Phoenix will form a strategic alliance with 'China Entertainment Times' and 'Myth International Press' to share resources. Oh, and I forgot to tell you that both of these companies I just mentioned are my property. ”

"Let's go!" Huang Xizhao was stunned, and the chopsticks in his hand fell on the table all of a sudden.

Zhou Liang Shuyi and the others were all moved when they heard Gu Weiqi's words. It must be known that "China Entertainment Daily" is now very popular in Xiangjiang. Especially the ten novels serialized above, those of them who are mixed in the TV circle naturally pay attention. But I never expected that it would be the new owner's industry.

In addition to being shocked, everyone was impressed by Gu Weiqi again!

Gu Weiqi shrugged his shoulders, looked around at everyone and smiled: "The 10 novels serialized in this newspaper are all inspired by me. In the future, our Phoenix Company will shoot TV series, so we don't have to worry about not having good story materials. ”

Once again, those present were shocked! In particular, the phrase "all the ideas come from my hands" shocked everyone beyond measure. You must know that Liwei wants to shoot a wonderful TV series, but she can't find creative ideas and original stories everywhere. Now Gu Weiqi's words are equivalent to helping the company that is about to be formally established solve the biggest problem.

Why is wireless so popular? Because the TV series filmed by the other party is good-looking, this suppressed Lishi so much that she couldn't raise her head, resulting in a series of vicious circles such as a sharp drop in ratings, inability to attract advertising, and serious losses. If a good TV series is made, the audience will naturally buy it, and the ratings will naturally go up, so there will be no worries about not being able to attract advertisements.

Huang Xizhao came back to his senses and said excitedly that it would be great if that was the case, I believe that with your strong support from Boss Gu, our phoenix will take off, and it will be just around the corner.

"It's good that you have that faith."

Gu Weiqi nodded, and continued: "I believe that according to your ability and your years of rich work experience, not only can we take off, but even if it is impossible to defeat Wireless and Lishi." That's why I've decided to promote you to the company's chief executive officer, and I'll have an overview of the company's overall development, but the focus is mainly on people. ”

Huang Xizhao nodded heavily and said, "Mr. Gu, don't worry, I will definitely go all out." ”

"As far as I know, Mr. Xiao Sheng has been working in the TV industry for many years and has a wealth of experience in TV production, so I plan to promote him to the vice president of our company, and I will be in charge of TV drama production in the future. Mr. Huang, what do you think? ”

"Indeed." Huang Xizhao nodded, and continued: "Xiao Sheng has rich experience in TV production, and he is very old, so it is very good to be in charge of the business of TV production. ”

"As for Ms. Zhou Liang, I will also promote you to vice president, and I will focus on variety entertainment programs in the future. Mr. Xu, you will be the deputy director of TV production for the time being. But you're still young, so you need to learn more from Xiao Lao. After all, Xiao Lao has more experience in TV production. ”

Xu Xiaoming was overjoyed in his heart, and said solemnly: "I understand Mr. Gu, don't worry, I will definitely learn hard from Xiao Lao." ”

Gu Weiqi continued: "According to my plan, after the company is established, we will first hold a 'Mythical and Legendary Singing Contest'. This geography is limited to Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and the four regions of the mainland, and I will grant you 5 million Hong Kong dollars for each competition, and the championship prize is tentatively set at 1 million Hong Kong dollars. Do you have the confidence to do a good job with this event? ”

"Yes." All four of them solemnly said, "We definitely have it!" ”

"That's good, let's go back and discuss the details."

Gu Weiqi said: "Now I will announce a few things to you, first, in order to start our company's signboard in one fell swoop, I decided that after the company was established, 4-5 big dramas will be filmed at the same time." As far as I know, the average production cost of each episode of TVB is about 4,000-8,000 Hong Kong dollars. For our five major dramas, I will approve a production fund of 20,000 Hong Kong dollars per episode, does Xiao Lao have the confidence to create a high-quality product? ”

"Didn't say that." Xiao Sheng stroked his eyes, patted his chest and said confidently: "With your strong support from the boss, I am absolutely confident that I will create a high-quality product!" ”

Gu Weiqi nodded with satisfaction, and continued: "As for the TV to be filmed...... If there are no accidents, we will choose from the ten novels that are being serialized in the recent 'China Entertainment Times'. Xiao Lao, you take the time to see which ones are more suitable for adaptation now. ”

"Okay."

"The second is to poach people, whether it is Lishi, or wireless, or talents from other film companies, as long as you think it is suitable, you can poach it. I hereby promise that those who have served in Phoenix for more than 10 years and perform well will receive a one-time reward of up to 1 million Hong Kong dollars! ”

However, the exact amount of prize money will be received depends on the overall performance of the individual. I would like to emphasize here that this is by no means a sway to everyone. When you are digging people, you can explain this to everyone. Of course, if you behave poorly, it is very likely that you will not get a penny. ”

"Outstanding performers can receive a one-time reward of up to HK$1 million?" The few people present were all moved, this boss is definitely much more generous than the British Yankees of Lishi and the lonely Shao tycoon on the wireless side.

"Third, in order to enrich the spare time entertainment life of employees, I will allocate 10 million Hong Kong dollars to the company every year for the construction of the company's culture. Including at least once a year free travel abroad benefits and various competitions, such as talent, basketball and so on. At that time, those who perform well will receive generous bonuses. ”

"Fourth, at the end of each year, a person who is the best will be selected and will receive a one-time bonus of 100,000 Hong Kong dollars. If you don't choose the emperor and the queen, we also have the Outstanding Employee Award here, and the same bonus prizes are very generous. You can tell the people you want to dig up. ”

"Fifth, the ancients said: the state has national laws, the family has family rules, and there are no rules. After the establishment of Phoenix Company, in addition to implementing a series of reward systems, it will also formulate relevant punishment regulations. But whenever the chain is dropped at a critical moment, passive sabotage and disappearance, collaborating with the enemy and betraying Taiwan...... Those who have caused significant economic losses to the company, I declare here in advance, don't blame me for being ruthless when the time comes! ”

"In the future, if the company can make a profit, everyone's salary will be greatly adjusted, and all kinds of bonuses and benefits will be soft on you. And after I straighten out our TV station, I will open a film company. At that time, the company will definitely need a lot of actors, and they will be seconded from our station first. ”

"In addition, I also plan to invest 50 million Hong Kong dollars in a music company, it can be said that as long as I enter our Phoenix company, there are many channels to become popular in the future. Now all you have to do is poach people, and I'm buying equipment and office buildings on my side. However, it should be done soon, so you need to act now. ”

The four of them all said: "Don't worry, Mr. Gu, we will definitely go all out." ”

Next, several people discussed the specific development details and strategies of Phoenix Company. In the evening, several people came out of the restaurant one after another, and after Gu Weiqi returned home, he began to write a TV program plan.

Three days later, Lo Canan told Gu Weiqi that he had spent HK$150 million to acquire a 19-storey building near Liyuan. The latter went to take a look, and the building covers a very large area and towers into the sky. However, now is the time when the housing prices in Xiangjiang have been expensive in recent years, if it is at the end of 82, when the real estate industry collapses in 83, there will be 30 or 20 million to be able to take it.

It's just that now Gu Weiqi is waiting to use it, and he can't take care of it so much, and he doesn't hesitate to spend more money. However, the TV license has been approved, and it will not work if it is not put into operation. Later, he renamed the building "Phoenix TV Building" and asked Luo Canan to find someone to decorate it; At the same time, some technicians were also identified through Huang Xizhao to install TV signal transmitters.

On October 25, 1980, the Phoenix TV Building was finally renovated. At the same time, various equipment was also procured.

On October 28, "China Entertainment Times" took the lead in reporting the blockbuster news that Huang Xizhao, the high-level Chinese general manager of Lishi, and others jumped to "Phoenix TV", and the entire Xiangjiang entertainment circle was immediately shaken.

It must be known that some time ago, rumors began to circulate that Lishi was about to be liquidated and sold by the parent company of the British Commonwealth. Naturally, the news was revealed by Lishi's old rival wireless. Originally, Lishi was taken back by the British parent company due to the shortage of funds, and the situation was already very bad. Such a situation has made Lishi's ratings drop again and again, and the future is worrying!

In particular, after the three Australian consortia entered Lishi, the shareholders of Lishi increased sharply, resulting in uneven interests and contradictions, which caused a series of problems, causing Lishi to enter a period of chaos, and the first thing caused by it was naturally the change of rights.

The first to bear the brunt is the Chinese general manager Huang Xizhao, who has been in office for five or six years, and many of the senior personnel of Lishi under his rule are Chinese, such as Xiao Ruoyuan, the screenwriter saint, and the "Lishi Sanxiong" and other outstanding TV talents are all brought up by him. But after the Australian gang came, they forced these Chinese elites to leave in order to compete for power and profit.

The reason why Lishi can compete with wireless is the existence of this group of Chinese elite TV talents, and only these people can really understand the company's development market trends. Driving out this group of Chinese high-level people, Lishi is tantamount to digging her own grave.

And every Chinese high-level has been mixed in Lishi for a long time, and there is always a group of henchmen of their own. Their departure directly took away a large part of Lishi's artists and the behind-the-scenes staff of the TV station, and lost a large number of talents, which made Lishi almost paralyzed.

And now, with the departure of Huang Xizhao and others, it has made "Lishi" even worse. Everyone has speculated, who is the boss of "Phoenix TV"?

However, in order to maintain the mystery of his identity, Gu Weiqi specially instructed the "China Entertainment Times" not to report him first. But even so, this newspaper sold Luoyang paper expensive because of the news report, and repeatedly increased the printing to 500,000 copies, which was able to meet the market demand.
