Chapter 120: Fang Yihua is here

"The ratings of "Winter Sonata" ATV reached 18%, and ATV said that it would consider a second round of broadcast in the future."

"Following the fire of "Huanzhu Gege" on Hong Kong Island, the ratings of "Winter Love Song" have reached a new high."

"Yan Danchen, Zu Feng, and Guo Feili participated in ATV publicity."

"Yan Danchen received endorsement from Hong Kong Island, 800,000 a year."

"There is a rich woman on Hong Kong Island who offers 500,000 yuan to have dinner with Zu Feng."

"Winter Sonata" is popular on the peninsula, an island country, and now there is one more Hong Kong island, the situation of the new Matai, let us wait and see."

"Liu Dehua wanted to make a movie with Zhao Yang, and Wang Jing invited Yan Danchen to play "Pork Chop Alliance".

"Winter Love Song" is not only popular in the island country, but also on Hong Kong Island, Yan Danchen and several of them came back from the island country and rushed to Hong Kong Island non-stop.

The crew of "Stairway to Heaven" was speechless, they had already found the heroine and were about to start the film, but the actor was not there.

Li Shengyao suggested that they turn on the camera first, and when Zu Feng is busy for a while, they will rush over to shoot.

On this day, Li Shengyao asked Guo Xiaodong, Yan Bingyan, and Zhang Zhijian to hold a script seminar, and at this time, the assistant came over and said that someone was visiting, and the person who came was TVB's boss Fang Yihua.

Since it was the sixth aunt who came, he naturally had to greet him, and the high school and university he studied in his previous life had a "Shaw Building".

For the couple, he has great respect.

Li Shengyao immediately greeted him, and then invited Fang Yihua to sit down and pour tea for him in person.

Fang Yihua can speak Mandarin, and it is very standard, she is in her sixties, and her maintenance is not bad, and she looks like a rich wife.

"Young people are really amazing, the dramas you made are very good, and I have watched them too."

Li Shengyao laughed, but he didn't take it seriously.

Fang Yihua is basically the boss of TVB now, where does he have time to watch dramas.

The two sides exchanged pleasantries, and Fang Yihua then said the purpose of coming to Li Shengyao this time.

"Hou Shengzi, I hope that in the future, all TV series produced by your company will have the right of first refusal on Hong Kong Island."

This time, the popularity of "Winter Love Song" made ATV's ratings even tie with TVB, which surprised TVB and others.

They didn't expect another TV series like "Huanzhu Gege".

Many TVB screenwriters said that the plot arrangement of "Winter Love Song" and "Love Hotel" is very interesting, and "Funny Family" is of high quality and funny.

This wave of ratings, ATV may be able to maintain for a long time.

This makes TVB uncomfortable.

Originally, ATV was pressed to death by TVB, and ATV's high-level turmoil has been continuous in recent years, maybe if you make another effort, the TV station license will be cancelled.

But I didn't expect that I would be brought back to life now.

TVB's senior management immediately made a decision to completely cut off the opportunity for ATV to turn over from the source.

It happened that Fang Yihua came to Beijing for something, so he asked Li Shengyao by the way to negotiate in person.

When Li Shengyao heard this, he did not immediately agree.

He respects the six uncles and six aunts and admires their determination and actions to do charity, but in business, ATV did not offend him, why did he lower the level of a partner?

Fang Yihua saw Li Shengyao's expression in his eyes and knew that he had to come up with some benefits.

"Xiao Li, I've seen your previous interviews."

Li Shengyao smiled, "It's all some inconsequential words, which make you smile." ”

"No, I think it makes sense, now there are no new stories in the Hong Kong Island film industry and TV drama circles, and there are no good stories, so the market has retreated a lot."

Li Shengyao didn't answer, he knew that Fang Yihua hadn't finished speaking.

"Although you are very young, you are very talented, you said that your goal in the future is to make movies, I support you very much, the influence of movies is much greater, and we need new big directors in the Chinese film industry."

"You're welcome."

Fang Yihua shook his head, "It's not polite, this is the truth, Shaw Brothers can't do it, so I will make a Chinese New Year movie." ”

Shaw Brothers has long sold its cinema chain on Hong Kong Island and announced that it will stop production completely.

However, in recent years, Shaw Brothers has seen some spicy chicken New Year comedies on Hong Kong Island every year, which are low cost and can still make money.

They re-made the movie, and they made Chinese New Year comedies, all with TVB actors, and the cost was very low.

Li Shengyao did not answer.

Fang Yihua continued: "Your TV series has the right to buy excellent on Hong Kong Island TVB, and in the future, your movie will be distributed for you in TVB in Xinmatai and Thailand, as long as 8% of the distribution fee." ”

When Li Shengyao heard this, his eyes lit up, "Sixth aunt, seriously?" ”

"Really."

Fang Yihua smiled, with smugness and certainty in his tone.

Although the Shaw family withdrew from Hong Kong Island cinemas and film production, their cinema chain still exists in the three countries of Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand.

In Po Village, Shaw Brothers Cinemas is one of the three major cinema chains, the other two major cinema chains are Cathay Pacific and Jiahua.

The boss behind Jiahua is Golden Harvest, and the boss behind Cathay Pacific is the Lu family, the richest man in Xinma.

K. Wah Cinemas is not very good in Malaysia, but Cathay Pacific and Shaw Brothers still have cinemas in Malaysia.

Shaw Brothers even has cinemas in Tyrande and Annan, which the other two can't compare.

The three Shaw brothers have long since separated, but in the end, Fang Yihua is the wife of the sixth uncle, and she and the sixth uncle are the highest ranking people in the Shao family.

She opened her mouth to speak, believing that the Shao family in Po Village would give face.

Although the box office of the three places of Xinmatai is not very high, it would be good to add up to 10 million.

But it can be released in these three places, and it can be hyped.

When the time comes, the publicity of the three places will have a high attendance rate, the box office will be gratifying, and the news will be transmitted back to the mainland, won't it be able to hype it?

Li Shengyao immediately nodded, "Okay, Aunt Six, I agree with you that in the future, the TV series of Fenghua Film and Television Company will be on Hong Kong Island, and TVB will have the right of first refusal." ”

Fang Yihua breathed a sigh of relief, she was really afraid that this offspring would dismiss her face.

She then smiled and asked: "Xiao Li, you are a visionary, tell me, TVB's current situation, if it is you, how should it be improved?" ”

TVB's dramas are becoming more and more difficult to sell in Xinmatai, and Wanwan doesn't buy their dramas, and their profits are getting less and less.

When Li Shengyao heard this, he thought about it and said: "Sixth aunt, my statement is still the same as before, I think TVB's current story is not good enough and not attractive enough." ”

"I don't recommend TVB to shoot dramas like "Genesis" and "The Great Era", such dramas are definitely good dramas, but the cost is too high, can it really pay off?"

TVB itself said that "Genesis" costs 100 million, even if they sell all over Xinmatai and the mainland, it is a question whether they can recover 20 million.

As for selling advertisements on the island, can it be sold for 20 million?

This drama has obviously lost money, and it has lost a lot.

"Hong Kong Island is now experiencing good economic development and a high standard of living for the people, so it is completely possible to shoot romantic dramas, workplace dramas, and police dramas.

Although Hong Kong Islanders live in pigeon cages, their wages are still very high.

Li Shengyao has never understood why they don't make idol dramas, they are business war police and bandits all day long, this kind of drama does not attract little girls and housewives.

If you give up this market, you haven't let Korean dramas occupy it.

"The last point is that if you don't have a story, you can find it in the mainland, and there are many good stories in the mainland now."

More than ten years later, those screenwriters of Korean dramas are waiting to copy the mainland every day, and there are no talents on Hong Kong Island who can dig up the stories of the mainland.

Fang Yihua nodded when he heard this, "Okay, I'll think about it when I go back." ”
