Chapter 365: Brother's Version of "I Believe"
Chen Ping'an has long known about the poor response and box office fiasco of "Mom Loves Me Again" when it was released in Taiwan. * On the first day of the release, Lin Yixia called him and told him all the audience's complaints and early exit.
Lin Yixia is the heroine and is very concerned about this play, and her reaction on the first day made her panic. On the phone, Chen Ping'an told her that the market for this movie is not in Taiwan, so the local box office in Taiwan does not need to be taken to heart. Let her film with peace of mind and wait for the sensational moment of this drama.
He vaguely remembered that after the release of this movie in Taiwan, the box office did not seem to have broken 10,000, and now it can have a box office of more than 200,000, which is already very good, at least it proves that his face is not small, and many audiences are entering the theater with his name.
As for whether it will hurt the audience who supports him...... This can't be avoided, there will be gains and losses, but fortunately, Christmas is coming, and "My Sassy Girlfriend" will be released soon.
Today, he brought Shi Nansheng to discuss the company's personnel changes. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yijia called, and learned that she was unhappy in Lianhai Pictures now, so he first told Zhang Yijia about the planned personnel changes, and asked her to end her work at Lianhai Pictures as soon as possible and return to Dark Horse International to help her.
After listening to his explanation, Shi Nansheng felt more comfortable this time, but there were some things that Chen Ping'an did not explain clearly, such as how to arrange himself after letting Zhang Yijia take over him.
A turnip, a pit.
Dark Horse International Film Company, record company, distribution company, Dark Horse Cinema Line, investment company, and agent company each have special personnel who are fully responsible. Although she is only the vice president of Dark Horse International Film Company, because Chen Ping'an does not ask about management matters, she is the CEO of Dark Horse International Film Company. Take full responsibility for the company's operations.
Now give up the position to Zhang Yijia, where is she going?
"Sister Nansheng. Of all the people I trust, you are the most suitable and experienced person to manage the TV station. ”
70s of the 20th century. Shi Nansheng has successively served as the system and administration of TVB, Hong Kong and Taiwan, Jiashi, and Li. It wasn't until the 80s that he inadvertently followed Tsui Hark to play in Xinyicheng before joining Xinyicheng and becoming a big housekeeper.
It can be said that she has rich experience and experience in the operation of TV stations, and after Chen Ping'an acquired ATV, she is the most suitable leader. During her work at Dark Horse International, she had a very harmonious relationship with Chen Ping'an, and Chen Ping'an also trusted her very much. Therefore, she is the only suitable person.
In addition to her, Xu Xiaoming, who was born in ATV and has been defeated by wireless, is also very suitable, but unfortunately Chen Ping'an has an average relationship with him, and he is far less relieved than Shi Nansheng.
"You mean ATV?" Shi Nansheng was taken aback.
Chen Ping'an has long announced that he will acquire ATV, and there are also reports in the media, and not long ago he announced in public that he would officially launch a comprehensive acquisition. But Mr. Chiu was reluctant to sell, even though Oriental Daily reported the matter in the newspaper from time to time and said that the matter had entered a substantive stage. But Shi Nansheng knew very well that Chen Ping'an didn't do any substantive work at all except for moving his mouth!
"You don't have to worry, I trust you. When the time comes, Xu Xiaoming will come with you. Assist you in your work. He's an ATV old man, so it's a lot easier for you to get your work done with him. ”
"That's not what I'm talking about. Are you sure that Khoo Degen is willing to sell ATV? ”
"Of course!" Chen Ping'an smiled mysteriously, "Looking for you today." I just want you to accompany me to Fanling tomorrow morning and talk to him about the acquisition. ”
"Did you make an appointment with him? If you don't have a reservation. Even if you go golfing, people won't necessarily see you. It's not me talking about you. Since you really enjoy ATV, you should show sincerity instead of putting people on stage. Well, now that he is willing to sell, he won't sell it to you, who doesn't want to fight for a breath? ”
"Sister Nansheng, you're too worried." Chen Ping'an shook his head with a smile.
He did that for two reasons.
One is to give his seed and the ATV staff who want to switch jobs to wireless to hope that they can settle down temporarily. When he was accompanying Zhao Yazhi in Taiwan, he once talked to Li Lizhi on the phone and asked about the current situation of ATV. As a result, I learned that ATV has been very excited recently, and no matter how hard Li Lizhi's master and apprentice work, because they can't openly play the banner of Chen Ping'an, there are signs of an increase in the number of people who flow to wireless.
Therefore, Chen Ping'an must show his ambition to acquire ATV as soon as possible through some way, so that those who have been poached can stay in ATV for the time being and wait for the dust to settle.
But in this way, it will arouse wireless vigilance, and with Fang Yihua's strength and skill, he may not be able to make any stumbling blocks and destroy them, which is the second reason why Chen Ping'an did that.
From the perspective of any normal person, Chen Ping'an's unilateral high-profile announcement of the acquisition is very absurd and ridiculous. If the acquired party agrees, it shows its own weakness. So in order to fight for a breath and earn face, he will never agree to be acquired.
But he had to do it in order to confuse Wireless, confuse Fang Yihua, and clear the way for him to acquire ATV.
As for whether Qiu Degen will agree, it is not in his consideration at all, he has already done a good job, and Qiu Degen can't sell it to him if he wants to.
"Qiu Degen can't refuse? You shouldn't ......?"
"Sister Nansheng, I'm so sad if you say that! Am I that kind of person? Let me tell you, this is absolutely a normal business acquisition, through guò formal channels. ”
Shi Nansheng still didn't believe it.
Qiu Degen is not just an ATV boss. The self-made Qiu Degen, his life is also full of magic, his Far Eastern Group is also a behemoth in Hong Kong, and he has special feelings in film and television, so it is not easy for him to take the initiative to sell ATV.
"Did you make an appointment with him? Even if you know that he will go back to Fanling tomorrow morning to play golf, but you have not made an appointment, he may not be willing to see you if you rush to him like this. ”
"Hehe, I didn't ask him out, he asked me."
"He asked you to play golf in Fanling tomorrow?"
"That's right."
"He doesn't want to talk to you about an ATV acquisition, does he?"
"What else do you think he can talk to me about?"
Chen Ping'an's confident appearance fell in Shi Nansheng's eyes, which made her even more curious. She couldn't figure it out even if she wanted to break her head. What did Chen Ping'an do to make the resistant acquiree take the initiative to meet.
ended the conversation with Shi Nansheng. Chen Ping'an immediately drove to Dark Horse Records, ignoring the reporters who had been waiting at the door for a long time. Gallop away.
"Hit your lungs, and another few hours were wasted!"
"I've been in the industry for more than ten years, and I haven't seen anyone like him, so I don't take our reporters seriously!"
"Isn't he afraid that we will write casually and smear him in the newspaper?"
"That's it, go back and all our media will unite to block him until he relents!" As soon as he opened his mouth, he found that his peers were staring at him, and that gaze was like looking at an idiot. "What's wrong? Am I wrong? Which celebrity do you say would dare to put our reporters to death? ”
Hula everyone dispersed, and they all left in their cars, busy contacting the newspaper and completing other interview tasks.
This person was still standing in place stupidly, looking at his peers like birds and beasts with a puzzled face, and a series of question marks popped up in his heart. Am I not right?
An old reporter walked up to him, patted him on the shoulder and asked, "Look at your age, you don't look like you've just started in the industry." ”
"I used to be in charge of finance. Later, something happened, and he was transferred to the entertainment port. Brother, this Chen Ping'an doesn't take reporters too seriously, right? I've interviewed some of the biggest names in finance and economics before, and I don't have as much of a spectrum as him. ”
"Can the man of the year in finance compare with him? On grade. They can only work for An Shao. ”
"Then you can't let him go crazy, right? Join forces to block him once, and he will know how powerful our reporters are! ”
"Well, it's still a chick after all. He's a topic of conversation. Is it going to be a hot topic, guarding him is equivalent to keeping the sales of the newspaper. You want to join forces with your peers to ban him. Even if someone agrees, I'm sure someone will change their minds. At that point, it's just going to be a solitary meal. Besides, "Oriental Daily" and "Sing Tao Daily" have greatly increased their sales with him, will they agree? Because of him, the "Sing Tao Daily" newspaper office was smashed, but he still reports on him every day? ”
"Damn, that's hanging!"
Not to mention the reporter's reaction, Gu Tianle drove Chen Ping'an to Dark Horse Records. Under the enthusiastic leadership of the front desk lady, I came to the recording studio.
In the studio, many staff members are busy working, Luo Dayou, Anita Mui, and Ye Qianwen are all outside, watching the singers inside record songs. Chen Ping'an's arrival alarmed them.
"A'an, you're here!" Luo Dayou said hello, a little absent-minded, his mind was in the recording studio.
"Hello Mr. Chen." Ye Qianwen greeted respectfully, after joining Dark Horse Records, her career has taken a turn for the better, and she has now stepped into the front line of the music industry with half a foot.
Anita Mui glanced at him angrily, and said enviously: "What a song "ibelieve"! Leslie got another good song! ”
Chen Ping'an laughed: "Sister Mei, you won't be jealous, right?" If you want a good song, look for Brother Dayou, he's the boss! ”
"Don't lead me here! You still owe Qianwen a song! You lazy fellow! ”
"That's it! Don't think you've made several movies this year and you're just going to write a few songs? Mei Yanfang echoed Luo Dayou from the side, and the two sang and wanted to squeeze Chen Ping'an.
"Please, I'm making movies, not playing music!"
"Those who can work hard!" Mei Yanfang leaned over and blinked her eyes and pretended to be discharged, "You're too eccentric, aren't you?" I joined with him, and you wrote songs for him but not for me? Do you have a patriarchal mentality? ”
Facing the ever-changing queen, Chen Ping'an couldn't cry or laugh: "Sister Mei, what are you talking about, what is patriarchy, does it matter?" Besides, this is the theme song of the movie, which is suitable for my brother to sing! Director Guan is preparing to start filming "Rouge Buckle", isn't the theme song looking for you to sing? ”
"I don't care! In short, you have to write another song for me, it can't be worse than "Instant Fanghua"! ”
"And Qianwen's!" Luo Dayou's voice sounded, "I've told you how many times, and I can't be polite to him." If he tricks you into the boat, you have to be responsible for you, and you have to pester him for a new song! ”
was shouted by Luo Dayou, Ye Qianwen's face was slightly red, and she said softly: "Mr. Chen, I ......"
"I know you're good at Chinese now, and I'm ready for your songs. When my brother finishes recording, I'll give you the song. (To be continued......)
