Chapter 171 ATV Positions
Similar to the box office competition for movies, there is also competition among TV stations, which compete for viewership. Hong Kong Radio Channel is known as "Wutai Mountain". Two of them belong to the category of radio stations, and the remaining three are the main ratings. These three TV stations have been established in sequence. On September 7, 1975, the third TV station in Hong Kong, Jiayi TV, was established, forming a "three-distance" with Li's TV and TV. The competition among the three TV stations is very fierce: Li's TV filmed the unit drama "Top Ten Strange Case" with current affairs news as the theme. After the broadcast, the ratings rose to second place. In 1976, Jiayi TV filmed "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" by Jiayi TV in 1976, and became the runner-up. Li's TV ranked at the bottom. In order to win back the audience, Li's TV then filmed the unit drama "Top Ten Assassins", "The Real Man", "Top Ten Frauds", and finally defeated Jiayi, and Jiayi fell into trouble.
After Jiayi TV went bankrupt due to poor management in 1978, Lide TV and radio TV became two unique free TVs in Hong Kong, and began a series of open and secret struggles. From 1979 to 1980, "Lide" launched a three-line long series in prime time, completely destroying the diversified program settings of TVB. Radio was forced to start producing TVB dramas to respond. Lide took advantage of the victory. Once the local drama "The Love of the Earth" was broadcast in September 1980, it firmly occupied a considerable market share and the ratings continued to rise. At that time, "Transferred by TVB" broadcasted by TVB at that time was bleak, making it the first drama to be cut in half since its launch.
Li's ratings are getting higher and higher, and popularity is getting stronger. While Li Xiaohe, chairman of Wireless, passed away, and there is no leader and people are in panic. As the situation develops, Li's chance to surpass Wireless. The sun is at a low point, and the moon is full. With the change of Li's shareholders, General Manager Huang Xizhao was dismissed. The talents promoted during Huang Xizhao's reign flew one after another. After the internal strife, Li's vitality was greatly damaged. On the other hand, Wireless quickly took the lead, stabilized people's hearts, and spent a lot of money to buy out Jin Yong. Gu Long's novel copyright, filmed a series of martial arts dramas, and the ratings quickly rose. In this way, Li's listing was the only opportunity to surpass Wireless. After Li's name was changed to ATV, Qiu Degen faced such a situation.
"Dad!" Qiu Meiqi walked to Qiu Degen.
Qiu Degen asked with a smile: "Meiqi. Aren't you celebrating your friend's birthday? Why are you back?"
Seeing Qiu Degen, Qiu Meiqi pouted high, and her courage recovered. Her eyes turned and she complained: "That Ye Tian is so inappropriate. She played with women's feelings at a young age. The first time she saw him with Zhao Luzhi was together. Later, the newspaper hyped up his relationship with Chen Yulian, such as the champion of the singing competition, Anita Mui. And that Zhong Yanhong... I saw him again just now, holding a girl's hand..."
"You are very concerned about him." Qiu Degen frowned. The last celebration banquet was also directed at Ye Tian, and asked directly: "What do you want to say?"
Qiu Meiqi blushed and said, "I don't care about him. When I saw him when I went out just now, he seemed to be here to find you."
Qiu Degen said unexpectedly: "Is Tianzai here?"
"I'm still carrying a woman!" Qiu Meiqi hurriedly added. Standing next to Qiu Degen, for her, the only place in this huge ATV is safest.
"knew!"
Qiu Degen continued to write the documents, and could no longer find the state of being focused on the situation just now. Although he changed the name of the TV station, ATV was still a mess. He chatted with Ye Tian that night. Although it was only a few dozen minutes, he could see that Ye Tian had his own strategy in his heart and had a natural sensitivity to the entertainment career.
Whether Ye Tian can change the current situation in ATV, Qiu Degen shook his head. This expectation is a bit unrealistic.
"Why haven't you come yet!" Qiu Meiqi stood until her legs hurt, and she complained in her heart that Ye Tian was not punctual. She had been standing behind her and entered ATV for half an hour. Ye Tian was still missing. Maybe he had left. Qiu Meiqi cheered herself up in her heart and moved her footsteps quietly towards the door. It was too boring to stand here.
"The Chairman's Office is here, the sixth floor is really hard to find." Ye Tian looked up at the office sign. He was about to knock on the door, but the door opened by himself, and then he saw a very frightened face.
"ah!"
When Qiu Meiqi faced someone who was most unwilling to face, she screamed. Qiu Degen's heart jumped and drew a slash on the document. She slowly tore the document apart. She stared at Qiu Meiqi with displeasure and shook her head secretly.
"Am I that scary?" Ye Tian murmured, looking down at him. It was normal. Looking at Qiu Meiqi who was retreating repeatedly, he was speechless.
"Uncle!"
"Come on, sit down." Qiu Degen smiled and signaled. Although he was his junior, Ye Tian grew up in the mainland and had a very weak relationship with the Qiu family in Hong Kong. This is also a pity for him. If he had been trained since childhood, Ye Tian would definitely be even better. Perhaps his name would be Qiu Tian instead of Ye Tian.
"Thank you uncle."
"By the way, you can take a look at this first." Qiu Degen handed a document to Ye Tian.
Ye Tian looked through it and it turned out to be the reorganization document of ATV's department. The original Lite had a department, namely the Administrative Management Department, Finance and Planning System Department, Program Department, Production Department, Marketing Department, News and Public Affairs Department, Engineering Department, Production and Distribution Department, Artist Affairs Department and Foreign Affairs Department. The newly established ATV has added several new departments, namely the Resource Department, Art Department, Brand Communication Department, Propaganda Department, and Marketing Department.
Qiu Degen smiled and said, "Last time you said you were unwilling to manage ATV in the name of your family. Now I hired you as the producer, you can join the program department or the production department. These two departments are the core departments of ATV. What do you think?"
So generous!
Ye Tian's eyes flashed with surprise. He originally mocked Qiu Degen for appointing Qiu Meiqi to manage personnel. Now it seems that Qiu Degen's family has too strong concepts. In other words, it is nepotism. Fortunately, his sons are not interested in ATV, otherwise such a good thing would have happened!
The program department coordinates all ATV broadcasts, and the production department has a wider range of rights. He is the original intention of joining ATV. He can get in touch with all the directors, screenwriters, producers, actors, and all classes, and it is very convenient to poach people.
Li Zhuanglie, manager of the new policy management department, and Xu Xiaoming, manager of the program department.
Ye Tian saw the two names on the document and looked up at Qiu Degen. It turned out that this was the case. No wonder he was so generous. When the manager said that the producer must listen to the manager, and the position is at most the second place. He continued to read with his patience.
In addition to TV stations, ATV also has several branches, namely Asia Television Enterprise Co., Ltd., which is responsible for the overseas distribution and promotion of ATV programs. In addition to producing program video tapes in nearly ten languages, it also assists agents in publicity and promotion business.
Asia Television International Promotion Co., Ltd. is responsible for providing a service platform for celebrity enterprises to attract investment overseas and carry out various large-scale economic and trade promotion activities; and establish institutions in the mainland to carry out various services such as public relations, liaison, and consultation.
Asia Television Entertainment Film Co., Ltd. is responsible for film production.
Asia Television Music Co., Ltd. produces and publishes music works.
Ye Tian paid attention to the last two. These two branches were his target of abolition. Oriental Entertainment was poor and had no two cameras, not to mention other equipment. The music record company was still in the planning stage. With ATV support, it saved both money and effort.
ATV program list!
Ye Tian looked carefully and found that most of them were TV series, and the entertainment programs were very ordinary, and he was confident immediately. As early as on TV, he felt that the programs were old-fashioned and the production techniques were rough. After baptism of various programs in the 21st century, looking back at these, there was no such thing as watching them at all.
"Uncle, do you believe me?"
"Hmm?" Qiu Degen showed his eyes, not understanding why Ye Tian suddenly said this.
A producer could not satisfy Ye Tian's appetite and said seriously: "If my uncle believes in me, I am willing to do my best, and there is no need to stick to one department!"
"What a big appetite, why don't you let your father give ATV to you!" Qiu Meiqi stared at Ye Tian angrily. In the family, her brothers had already agreed that ATV was her property. She would inherit ATV just when Qiu Degen retired. Ye Tian was so ambitious that he threatened her status as soon as he joined ATV.
Ye Tian talked: "If my uncle wants to do so, I don't mind, but I don't like to accept it for nothing. Within ten years, I will repay the principal and interest to the family."
"Nonsense!" Qiu Degen showed his elders' majesty. He acquired ATV to fulfill his wish. If he wanted to make money, he could invest money in other places. Why fill the hole in ATV?
My father was partial, Qiu Meiqi curled his lips. If it were a few older brothers and younger brothers in the family, they would have been scolded long ago.
Qiu Degen looked at Ye Tian and said patiently: "Tianzi, I know you are talented and don't want to be inferior to others. But you have to eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time. Without a down-to-earth process, the higher you rise, the heavier you fall."
After all, he is not his own son. Ye Tiancai doesn't believe Qiu Degen is sincere. The other party's sons, either of them is either sensible or general manager. If you really have to take it step by step, it would be great to be a department manager.
"Uncle, if you think I am not worth enough, I can acquire part of the equity of ATV!"
"How much do you want to acquire?"
Qiu Degen smiled, Ye Tian came to Hong Kong with nothing. How much money can he make in a year? One ten thousandth of a purchase or one ten thousandth of a hundred thousandth?
Ye Tian said lightly: "I am willing to invest 10 million!"
"Ten million! You...you robbed the bank!" Qiu Meiqi screamed in surprise. Ye Tian was still in his heart as a country bumpkin. Now this country bumpkin suddenly took out ten million. Why can't she accept it? She would rather have heard it wrong.
Qiu Degen ignored his shocked daughter, looked at Ye Tian with a god, and said unexpectedly: "You have ten million."
Ye Tian smiled and said, "Uncle forgot that the video I made sold for 25 million yuan. This is just the box office in the local area, and the overseas revenue will be doubled."
Qiu Meiqi was stunned. The country bumpkin became tall, rich and handsome in seconds, and the world view collapsed immediately. (To be continued...)
