Chapter 12 The Three Major Television Stations

After deciding on the goal of the first step, Zhang Qiusheng began to be busy regularly.

He got up at 7 o'clock in the morning, and after helping Aunt Zhang make a small cart with Wei Xiaofan, he ate the steamed porridge that Aunt Zhang had to make for them, and in the voice of Wei Xiaofan's voice, he began to write the script of "Bao Qingtian".

Then wait until half past nine in the morning, Zhang Qiusheng left home and went to Xingji Tea Restaurant to do things.

After dinner and work in the evening, Zhang Qiusheng returned to his rental house and began to write the script until 12 o'clock.

On the first day of work, it was Wei Xiaofan who took Zhang Qiusheng over, which can be regarded as a greeting, don't let people bully him.

Zhang Qiusheng only knew at this time that Wei Xiaofan, a guy who only worked for half a day, was still the foreman, so he usually greeted the guests who came over and ordered them to go down.

And even so, Wei Xiaofan's monthly salary is as much as 2,000 yuan, which is equivalent to the income of a small manager in Central, which really makes other employees envious and jealous.

Zhang Qiusheng is different from a few small workers, on the one hand, they have to order orders, they have to serve tea and water, and they have to clean up the table, and if the bowls are piled up too much, they will also be called in to help wash the dishes.

When doing things, Zhang Qiusheng is not lazy at all, even if he has Wei Xiaofan to say hello, but he still does what he should do, and he will do it if others don't want to, except for eating, he has no idle time.

After doing this for two weeks, not only was the tea restaurant full of praise for Zhang Qiusheng, but even the boss Brother Xing felt that this time Wei Xiaofan had really done a good thing and found a good employee for him.

Of course, if you like it, you like it, but Brother Xing will never raise his salary.

A lot of small workers and waiters are not long because of this talent, but Brother Xing doesn't care, anyway, there are more people in Xiangjiang, more than 4 million, and I'm afraid I can't find someone who is willing to work?

A few small workers and waiters who hate him, when they eat and chat on weekdays, they talk about this old guy, who is very picky for the working boys, but he is very generous to a few of his little lovers, and once they also bumped into Brother Xing accompanying a beautiful woman in her twenties to buy gold jewelry, which is really annoying!

Zhang Qiusheng has never gossiped, and he can just laugh and laugh about something, and he definitely doesn't say much.

Because of his cleverness and hard work, basically two weeks later, when he saw some regular customers coming in, Zhang Qiusheng could accurately say their ordering preferences without them opening their mouths, which made the guests praise him.

Wei Xiaofan didn't brag, Xingji Tea Restaurant is close to Wutai Mountain, the taste is not bad, the price is fair, and the business hours are until three o'clock in the morning, so many TV and radio people like to come here to eat something, drink some milk tea or coffee, and take a leisurely time.

Yin Jun, the person from the two radio stations, doesn't care much, he cares about the people of TVB, Lidi and Jiashi.

For ordinary people in later generations, many people don't know that Xiangjiang TV actually has two overlords, and they still think that there is only one wireless TV station in Xiangjiang, that is, TVB.

In fact, there is also a TV station called Asia Television, which is now Li's Yingsheng TV, which has been competing with TVB for hegemony until the 21st century.

Li's TV was founded even earlier than TVB, it is the first TV station in Xiangjiang, and it is also the first pay TV station.

It is also for this reason that the free wireless TV station was founded, and within a few years, the TV station that played Li fell into disarray, and finally Li's had to be declared free, and the two TV stations continued to play non-stop.

In this way, in 74 years, He Zuozhi, the owner of Xiangjiang Commercial Radio, saw that Wireless and Li were so prosperous, he was moved, and then joined hands with several shareholders such as Jardine Matheson and Sing Tao Daily, and after one or two years of preparation, he founded the third free TV station in Xiangjiang - Jiayi TV.

At the beginning, Jiayi TV was a fierce player, and as soon as it started, it took the deputy general manager, production director, program director, and advertising director of TVB...... And so on, all of them were poached.

This is the famous "Six Gentlemen Incident of Jiayi" in the history of Heung Kong TV.

That's not all, Jiashi also wantonly poached wireless stars, ordinary actors, and behind-the-scenes personnel.

Before Deputy General Manager Liang Shuyi led his subordinates over, Jiashi only had 200 people, but as soon as they passed, Jiashi immediately became 800 people, which can be described as shocking!

But the wireless is miserable, and for a time it almost reached a state where no one started work.

At that time, TVB scolded the ancestors of several shareholders of Jiayi TV, but it was helpless, so it could only promote people from the inside, and then slowly train personnel, so it took a year or two to relieve themselves.

It was during this time that Li's all the way to the wireless, and the wireless was almost so pressed that she couldn't raise her head.

Even Jiashi has been better than wireless in the first two years.

But wireless is wireless, after Chairman Li Xiaohe retreated to the second line due to physical reasons, Shao Yifu, who completely monopolized power, is also a scheming person, in the past two years, by tapping potential, there are wireless artist training courses to provide them with newcomers, and employees of Shaw Brothers Film and Television can also come to help, so they also relieved themselves, and in turn steadily suppressed Li's head and re-consolidated their position as the boss.

But on the other hand, because Jiashi failed to maintain a consistent burn of money, and Liang Shuyi did not do smoothly in many aspects, so since last year, it has shown a decline.

Especially in "Dream of Red Mansions", which was launched in October last year, after the ratings suffered a fiasco, Jiashi, which suffered huge losses, was even worse, and recently there were rumors that Jiashi was unsustainable.

Therefore, in the Xingji Tea Restaurant, although the personnel of the three TV stations often come to eat, the wireless ones are the most high-spirited, and the beautiful ones are also full of confidence, and only the people of Jiashi are depressed.

But Jiashi did not despair, because they have now started a new round of battle planning, according to the context of their discussion on weekdays, Jiashi is preparing for the "July Offensive", striving to turn the tide of the war in one fell swoop and regain vitality.

Why the "July Offensive"?

Because August is Jiashi's next annual advertising investment conference.

The most important thing for a free-to-air TV station is advertising revenue, and if it is invested by shareholders alone, it will definitely not last long.

If there is no good advertising revenue at that time, then Jiashi will definitely be very difficult, and I am afraid that it will be over by the end of the year.

After all, since 74 years of planning and 75 years of poaching, Jiashi has been throwing a lot of money, so for a few years, but there is still no good return, and there is no sign of even advertising revenue to compensate for losses, and it is difficult for these investment shareholders to be interested in investing anymore.

It just so happens that what Xiangjiang people lack most is patience, so even if they have put in so much effort before, they will not hesitate to cut off this investment.

For the July offensive, the most important thing for Jiashi now is to start looking for a good script to film, and it has been determined that there are several TV series to be launched, and it is planned that in May, they will go to Xiangjiang to run propaganda ideas, hoping to let more people watch their programs, so as to get good ratings and attract advertisers to spend a lot of money next year.

On the other hand, Jiashi is also a little apprehensive.

Yin Jun has already seen a lot of wireless or beautiful people, who are trying to dig up the staff and actors of Jiashi.

Now that there is a contract, it is uncertain, once there is any problem with Jiashi, then these people will definitely be divided between Wireless and Li.

Many of Jiashi's own people are also looking for a way back, and they don't want to run out of food in the future.

Although many people are not optimistic about Jiashi, only Yin Juncai knows best that Jiashi really did not pass, and it went out of business directly at the end of August, and it did not even survive at the end of the year.

But what will happen to Jiashi in the future, Yin Jun treats them equally, he needs a chance, but it is definitely not now.

It will take a while to get to know these directors and producers, especially the producers, before I know who can help me succeed.

In Xiangjiang, from the past to the future, the biggest TV series is not the director, but the producer...... Even in films, many producers are older than directors, and it's fitting that many directors are called "executive directors".

When "A Chinese Ghost Story" was filmed, although the director wrote Cheng Xiaodong, who didn't know that the producer Xu Ke was the most important person? Every picture is full of Xu Laowei's style!

Therefore, if Yin Jun wants to pitch the script, it is most suitable to find a producer.

As long as the producer agrees to shoot this book, then the TV station will consider buying the script.

Of course, the bigger the producer's card, the better, such as Wang Tianlin of Wireless, Xiao Sheng of Jiashi, such as Li's McDonald Bear, if they fall in love with Yin Jun's script, it will be 100% taken seriously, making "Bao Qingtian" an instant hit.

But Zhang Qiusheng is not so greedy and will not see himself so clearly.

With his status and status, it is simply difficult to hand over a book to these people now.

These famous producers all have their own script teams, and over the years, they have formed a tacit cooperation, and it is impossible to rashly accept other people's scripts - this also refers to the company's internal screenwriters, let alone newcomers like Yin Jun, who are nothing.

For example, McDonald Bear only likes to use Xiao Ruoyuan's script, and he only likes to tell Xiao Ruoyuan the story he wants to make and let Xiao Ruoyuan write it.

Therefore, Zhang Qiusheng's very realistic idea is to find a good producer, at least a producer who can have a stable broadcast time.

With the quality of "Bao Qingtian", as long as it is given time to be broadcast, no matter what time it is, it will definitely bloom quickly and be wildly sought after by everyone.

As this masterpiece that has been tested by countless people in the future, with Zhang Qiusheng's careful checks, there is obviously no reason to miss.
