In the face of the aggressive Jiayi TV station, TVB also adopted a hard strategy. cut off the ratings of "Rotation", which was not in good ratings, and urgently recruited the first-line student Zhou Runfa to come back, and co-produced "Smiling Proud Jianghu" with the first-line Huadan Huang Xingxiu to deal with Jiayi TV's "Four Famous Catches and Shocks Kanto". He also invited the new students Ren Dawei and Tang Zhenye to co-star in the light comedy "Happy Enemies" with the new Huadan Zhuang Jinger and Jing Daiyin.

Because this is regarded as an existential moment by TVB, it is also the most serious challenge that Liang Shuyi has faced since she took over TVB, so TVB is united. It took less than a week for the drama "Smiling Proud Jianghu" to determine the filming plan to the first episode to be broadcast.

"Smiling Proud Jianghu" because the actors selected are the best actors in Taiwan, Zhou Yunfa naturally goes without saying, a "Shanghai Tang" is simply red to purple, Huang Xingxiu starred in "Chu Liuxiang", "Peerless Double Pride" and so on, and she is also a well-known chivalrous woman now. In addition, Chen Yulian, who plays the role of the holy aunt Ren Yingying, is also a newcomer who has been highly praised by wireless in recent years. This time I can cooperate with my sweetheart, and I don't have to hide it day and night, and I guess these two people will be happy.

In addition to the little sister played by Huang Xingxiu and Ren Yingying played by Chen Yulian, there is also a stunning beauty Yilin Xiaoshitai, who is played by Zhou Xiulan, a newcomer who just graduated from wireless last year. Zhou Xiulansheng has a pretty face, she is a delicate and lovely girl, and the most rare thing is that there is a group of children between her eyebrows, as if she will never grow up. It is the personality of Yilin's little master in the book.

After the broadcast of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", the ratings of the originally high Jiayi TV station dropped rapidly, and soon it was only a score of five or five with TVB. But even though it's five or five points, it's not what TVB wants to see. It is important to know that the ratings of TVB before Lu Dao were overwhelming.

And Jiayi TV's main magic weapon to increase ratings. It's a campaign to watch TV and give away prizes. This model was originally pioneered by Xu Guanwu. But it was carried forward by Jiayi. Now in order to win the ratings, it is natural to fight, and Liang Shuyi immediately held a gift event to watch TV, and really called the board with Jiayi TV.

The tip of the needle is against Maimang, and the two are originally indistinguishable, but the popularity of wireless has always been a little higher. Jiayi TV Station suffers losses in Xiaosheng and Hua Dan, who are not able to do it, and it is difficult to compete with Zhou Yanfa, Huang Xingxiu, Chen Yulian and other wireless artists. As a result, the ratings began to shift, and TVB gradually gained the upper hand. However, because "The Four Famous Earthquake Kanto" has already aired thirteen or fourteen episodes, the plot has entered a small climax, and Xiaoao Jianghu has just started broadcasting, so the current ratings are still 64, and Jiayi TV is not too far behind.

For Jiayi TV to engage in the Miss Oriental beauty pageant with great fanfare, the amount of prizes has also risen again and again, but TVB TV has not blindly followed the trend. Jiayi TV set the championship prize of 1 million Hong Kong dollars, to be honest, this prize is really high.

Now a big-name star like Cheng Long is only paid 500,000 Hong Kong dollars for filming a movie. And like Zheng Shaoqiu. Zhou Runfa, Liu Songren and other TV stars are popular enough. is famous enough, but the salary of a drama is less than 100,000 Hong Kong dollars. No matter how popular the champion of the Miss Oriental beauty pageant is, it is difficult to compare with Qiuguan, Fa Zai, Brother Ren and others, and now a bonus of one million is awarded, and it will take at least three or four years to work in the future to return to the capital, and the rate of return is too long and too slow. What's more, beauty contests are held every year, and countless beauties come to participate in each edition. The opposite of scarcity is that there are more beautiful women, and they are not worth much. The title of Miss Oriental alone is really not worth so much money.

Therefore, TVB did not blindly raise the bonus amount because it wanted to compete with Jiayi. However, it also increased the investment of 1.5 million yuan, and invited the participating beauties to go to Paris, France to shoot exterior locations. This is also the first time in the history of the Hong Kong beauty pageant.

Paris already has the title of the capital of romance and fashion. More than a dozen beauties went to Paris to play and shop together, and by the way, it was quite a pleasant thing to arrange a show to do games to promote Hong Kong, and it also echoed the concept of the Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant, which is to promote the beauty of Hong Kong to the outside world through Miss Hong Kong.

TVB's move has greatly increased the watchability of the show, which has simply raised the level of this show to a higher level, making Miss Hong Kong a bit international. Compared with the Miss Oriental beauty pageant that is limited to Hong Kong, it can't help but seem a little rustic.

Although Jiayi TV has attracted more beauties than TVB with its high bonuses. However, in terms of the watchability of the program, TVB is slightly better. So in terms of ratings, the Miss Oriental beauty pageant still can't compare to the Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant. Jiayi TV made a bad move this time, but it just lost money to make money.

Liang Shuyi quietly pulled back the two games, and couldn't help but be praised by the outside world, thinking that she did have the strength to take over Mr. Li Xiaohe's class.

It is worth mentioning that the outside world also thinks that Jiayi is still glorious despite the defeat this time, because no TV station has been able to beat TVB so embarrassed for a long time. What's more, the ratings of the drama "Four Famous Capture of Kanto" were once ahead, and it was regarded as an unprecedented miracle.

Compared with TVB and Jiayi, which are inextricably fighting, the previous 10,000-year-old Erli is much more silent. Although a month has passed, Qiu Degong and the Australian consortium still have not negotiated a price. Qiu Degong was only willing to give up to 130 million Hong Kong dollars, and the Australian consortium bit it to death and not sell it for 150 million. The two sides were entangled in the 20 million Hong Kong dollars and could not reach an agreement for a long time.

To be honest, Xu Guanwu also thinks that Li's TV station is not worth 150 million Hong Kong dollars at all, because all its current hardware equipment adds up to only more than 20 million Hong Kong dollars, even if you add its own film library, it is only 30 million Hong Kong dollars at most. The most valuable thing about a TV station is the license and the contracts of its employees.

However, after the Australian consortium became the owner, most of its employees were first dismissed, and the old courtiers Huang Xizhao, Mai Dangxiong and others were driven out of the company, which greatly hurt the feelings of a group of old courtiers. After that, he didn't invest in filming new dramas, which made the employees who originally planned to stay in the TV station also leave one after another, so that now Li's TV station has become an empty shelf, except for a few employees who can't get out. The rest of the staff were out there on their own tracks.

If Li's TV station was worth 150 million before. Now even 100 million Hong Kong dollars is no longer worth it. It's a pity that the Australian consortium can't see through this. still thought that he couldn't lose money, so he couldn't sell Li's TV station for a long time. The TV station can't sell it and there is no new investment, except for some self-made programs, all the other programs are rebroadcast from the old dramas before, and the ratings are only poor. The poor ratings and low advertising revenue make it possible to collect millions of advertising fees per month, but now there are only a few hundred thousand, which is just enough for the basic salary of employees. As a result, there were many complaints, and there were often employees holding signs to protest at the Hong Kong Governor's Office.

……

When Xu Guanwu accompanied Lin Qingxia's mother and daughter back to Hong Kong, they happened to see Li's employees gathered at the gate of the Hong Kong Governor's Mansion, standing there one by one holding signs, although they did not shout slogans, but the words on the signs were already obvious.

"Government withdraws Li's licence to protest inaction by Australian consortium"

"We want to work, we want to eat"

"Li's rise up, the consortium gets out"

……

"Why is it that Li's TV station is becoming so difficult now?" Lin Qingxia looked through the glass and saw the handwriting on the sign. couldn't help but look at Xu Guanwudao suspiciously.

"The Australian consortium is an iron rooster, and it doesn't pull out a hair. Now it's lifeless. Actors, photographers, etc. can still find odd jobs to do outside, how to find these ordinary employees, office boys, assistant screenwriters and other low-level employees? No wonder they came back here to protest. Xu Guanwu sighed and said.

"Alas, such a protest, I wonder if the Hong Kong government will respond?" Lin Qingxia also said with some sympathy, "The Australian consortium is really too much, since you bought Li's TV station, can you run it well, why should it be abandoned like this?" ”

"They didn't want to run Li's TV station well, they just wanted to buy and sell to make a profit." Xu Guanwu said disdainfully, "Now I can't sell it, and I don't want to pay for Li's rejuvenation, no wonder Li's will get worse and worse, and now it's not as strong as Jiayi." He only wants the horses to run, and he wants the horses not to eat grass, and he has all the good things alone. ”

……

After returning home with Lin Qingxia and packing up the luggage, Xu Guanwu went home first with the gifts he bought for Zhao Yazhi.

But when I got home, I didn't see her, I saw the nanny coaxing her son to sleep. No matter how sleepy the little guy was, Xu Guanwu first picked it up and took two bites on his face, woke up his son directly, and then went to the set with the nanny and his son.

Zhao Yazhi is filming in Kowloon, and she hasn't seen her for a month, and she doesn't know if she is fat or thin, which makes Xu Guanwu feel strangely worried. It's just that Qingxia was always by his side in the United States at that time, so he had to quietly touch him when he called. To be honest, he has been circling between two women, plus a Deng Lijun who is nowhere to be seen, Xu Guanwu feels that he is mentally exhausted, and he really has no energy to chase another girl.

"In those YY novels, the male protagonist is ten or eight confidantes at every turn, how do people do it?" Xu Guanwu couldn't help but say suspiciously.

Of course, this may also be related to his too high requirements, Xu Guanwu knows that he has a spiritual cleanliness habit, he doesn't like to act on the spot, and he also doesn't like too casual beauties, which makes him have a lot fewer choices.

Among the women who work hard in the entertainment industry, there are few white lotuses and many black fungus. After all, those who can be actors are basically extroverted people, otherwise it is difficult to perform in front of the camera. And sometimes because of the needs of the plot, actors will inevitably hug and hug, kiss and kiss, and even have scenes such as bed scenes, so the sense of moral restraint is relatively weak. In addition, there are many handsome men and beautiful women in the entertainment industry, and there are many rich people who are courteous, so it is inevitable that something will happen.

Zhao Yazhi was divorced once in her previous life, and she also had an affair with Huang Yuanshen, who played the hero Huo Yuanjia. Lin Qingxia even talked about a love triangle with Qin Han, Qin Xianglin and others. Deng Lijun has also been in love many times, and the last one is a French boyfriend who is more than a decade younger than her.

And these celebrities are all a type of stars who don't have many scandals and have a good image. As for those actresses whose images are unbearable and scandals are flying all over the sky, the love history is even richer, and everyone can't fall in love ten or eight times without talking about it.

For these women, Xu Guanwu naturally stayed away. To be honest, although he was scolded by the outside world, from Zhao Yazhi to Deng Lijun, he has only dated three women, which is much cleaner than those stars who have several love histories at every turn.

……

drove to Kowloon Dragon and Tiger Mountain, where "Crazy Robbery" was filmed today.

As soon as Xu Guanwu went, he felt that the atmosphere in the crew was solemn, and everyone seemed to be extra careful, as if there was a time bomb in the crowd.

Xu Guanwu couldn't help but walk over curiously, and saw director Xu Anhua squatting on the ground, smoking cigarettes one by one, and there were always more than a dozen cigarette butts on the ground.

The other actors stood silently and waited, looking like schoolchildren being trained.

Executive producer Teddy Robin was next to a crying girl, whispering to persuade her.

Xu Guanwu couldn't help but feel very puzzled, he had been to countless crews, and it was the first time he had seen such a strange picture.

I was about to ask what was going on, when Teddy Robin saw him and immediately slapped his hand, "It's good that you're here!" (To be continued......)
