Dreams of the Fragrant River
: Three hundred and thirty-seven [Spring chapter file]
Following the last inspection trip to the mainland, Zhong Jinghui went to the mainland for a month after a lapse of one month, and only came back after seeing the Spring Festival. [;Starting]
CCTV bought it from Phoenix TV, and after layers of approval to delete a few scenes, and then dubbed it in Mandarin, it has been decided to broadcast it after the Lunar New Year.
Zhong Jinghui's two trips to the mainland were not in vain. In addition to getting in touch with many TV stations in the mainland, he also had contact with some officials of the Ministry of Culture, of which, of course, the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office was the matchmaker.
As soon as Zhong Jinghui came back, he saw the TV station's program production staff exchanging contracts. He immediately ran to Huang Xizhao and asked, "Old Huang, what's going on in the station now? What is a TV station called without a production department!"
Huang Xizhao said calmly, "At least the news production department is still there."
"It's just nonsense!" Zhong Jinghui said angrily, "This Kang Jianfei was fine at the beginning, but when the TV station improved a little, he started to mess up. No, I'm going to find him, it's a big deal with him like I did with the Australian shareholders last time. Let's make a mess. Although my TV station belongs to him, it is also in your hands and I make it big. I can't watch it be destroyed by him. "
"Ahui, you can't make trouble," Huang Xizhao said meaningfully, "it's fine if we follow him and don't make trouble. Once we make trouble, I estimate that with Kang Jianfei's temper, we will risk dismissing more than half of the employees and directly Let's get out of here."
Zhong Jinghui was stunned for a moment, then quickly figured out the reason, and said with a wry smile, "Is he too suspicious?"
Huang Xizhao shook his head: "We used to have too much trouble with the Australian shareholders, and whoever becomes the boss won't be at ease with us. I should have thought about it earlier, but I was just lucky. Kang Jianfei and Lei Juekun had trouble. The tough attitude he showed during the turnaround shows that he is a man with a strong desire to control, and he can't let me start a small group on the TV station. As long as the TV station stabilizes, he will definitely do it."
Zhong Jinghui is not a fool, Huang Xizhao said something casually, he understood everything, and could only sit there and sigh.
…
Spring is getting closer and closer. The wasteland that Kang Jianfei bought in Tseung Kwan O also stopped, and some of the excavated earthwork was placed there like a trench, and the construction could only be resumed after the Spring Festival.
The TV series and variety show production section of Phoenix TV. Although it is to be split into DreamWorks, it has not really moved there. First, there are not enough office spaces at DreamWorks, and secondly, the TV station has many studios and studios, which is more convenient when shooting programs.
Of course, although the office location has not been moved, the contracts of these people have all been transferred to DreamWorks, and they are employees of the TV production department under the production department of DreamWorks.
These are temporary. After Kang Jianfei's Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City is completed. Phoenix TV and Oriental DreamWorks have to move there. Even Pop Records is planning to move there.
Kang Jianfei was determined to split the production department of the TV station. In addition to separating production and broadcasting to reduce the expenses of Phoenix TV and enhance the competitiveness of TV programs, another purpose was to weaken Huang Xizhao's influence on Phoenix TV.
The Australian shareholders suffered the collective resistance of Huang Xizhao's family on the TV station, but it sounded the alarm for Kang Jianfei. He would not want to be collectively resisted by the employees in the TV station, or a large number of people would be poached along with Huang Xizhao.
Huang Xizhao's influence on the Phoenix Channel was so great that Kang Jianfei had no choice but to be afraid. Even Huang Xizhao did not turn back. As the boss, Kang Jianfei could not give Huang Xizhao the qualifications and strength to turn against him.
So after buying the TV station, the first thing Kang Jianfei did was to invite Zhong Jinghui back and use Zhong Jinghui to check and balance Huang Xizhao. Now that Phoenix TV has recovered somewhat, and the time to attack Huang Xizhao is ripe, Kang Jianfei decided to split the production department of the TV station. Most of the employees in these departments were promoted by Huang Xizhao. Now that the contract is transferred to DreamWorks, it will take less than a year and a half for Huang Xizhao's influence on them to be minimized.
How could Huang Xizhao be unclear about Kang Jianfei's approach?
However, Kang Jianfei is the boss after all, and he is the boss who has done a good job of the TV station. In addition, there are a lot of successful cases of TV station production and broadcasting separation reform in Europe, America and Taiwan. Huang Xizhao really has no reason to object. After Kang Jianfei clearly stated his attitude, Huang Xizhao could only agree with a sigh.
When Kang Jianfei just bought the TV station, Huang Xizhao spared no effort to help recall key employees. Now, as soon as the TV station is on the right track, Kang Jianfei will use Huang Xizhao's subordinates to operate, which is somewhat like crossing the river and tearing down the bridge.
But Kang Jianfei had to do this, otherwise he would not be a competent boss. Huang Xizhao was a typical example of a high-profile boss, and a slightly tougher boss wouldn't allow his subordinates to have such a situation.
That’s why so many emperors killed the founding heroes in history. Although Kang Jianfei didn’t directly attack Huang Xizhao, he split up his direct descendants, and systematically weakened Huang Xizhao’s power through the separation of production and broadcasting, which can be regarded as learning from Song Taizu A glass of wine released the military power.
Huang Xizhao is a smart person. Perhaps he wanted to eliminate the mistrust between him and Kang Jianfei. He not only agreed to the reform of the separation of production and broadcasting, but also personally called back Xu Xiaoming, who was a director at Shaw Brothers.
Xu Xiaoming's ability is not inferior to that of McDonald's. The ATV in Qiu Degen's era in the parallel space is Xu Xiaoming as the program production director, and has always achieved profitability of ATV.
After Xu Xiaoming went to Shaw Brothers last year, he was idle after only two films. He could only help other directors. He was regretful and depressed. Now his teacher disregarded his previous suspicions and came to recruit him, and immediately ran back, pretending that nothing had happened, and joined the TV production department of DreamWorks.
On the North American side, it has been officially completed, and the North American box office has accumulated 182 million US dollars, ranking second in the US box office rankings last year. (1st place, box office 177 million)
The news quickly returned to Hong Kong, especially after it was confirmed that it was produced by Kang Jianfei, the newspapers in Hong Kong were collectively high.
Not only the Hong Kong newspapers, but even the Nanyang and Japanese and Korean media exclaimed in disbelief.
However, the Taiwanese newspapers did not report too much, and they seemed to think that the name Kang Jianfei was too dirty, and it would sully their ears. As for the reason, of course, Kang Jianfei's Phoenix Channel was helping the Communist Party to speak, and there was a serious suspicion of espionage.
Kang Jianfei was not angry either. As long as Taiwan can't help his movies, he's already thankful. Not only that, he also asked Phoenix TV's staff to restrain themselves, try to do the show from a neutral standpoint, and from time to time touts Taiwan's good economy and people's livelihood. It is a disguised flattery to the Taiwan authorities.
With the passage of time, the relevant details have also been excavated by the Asian media, especially Kang Jianfei completed the production in 11 days. It's like telling a legend.
The English-language newspaper with the largest circulation in Hong Kong analyzed: "...a comedy film produced in 11 days has beaten many Hollywood blockbusters and won an ultra-high box office of 182 million US dollars in North America. According to the genre and past practice, this film The follow-up global box office can still sell at least 80 million US dollars. In terms of box office income, director Kang Jianfei can get at least 90 million US dollars. And 20th Century Fox has also announced recently that it was purchased at a price of 45 million US dollars. Peripheral and sequel rights. That is to say. This film directed by Kang Jianfei can bring him at least 130 million US dollars in net income, and its overseas box office is still conservatively estimated."
The English report of the article was quickly translated and reprinted, and when it reached the Chinese-language newspapers such as such, it directly became "Mr. Kang Jianfei earned 130 million US dollars in 11 days in the United States."
The news of these big newspapers is misinterpreted by the tabloids, and it becomes "Kang Jianfei earns tens of millions of dollars a day in the United States", which has become a superman.
Now Kang Jianfei is careful to even go out, otherwise God knows there will be a reporter there.
The end of the year is approaching. All the work has been arranged, and Kang Jianfei is also enjoying his leisure time. Basically every day, he takes turns to pay Lin Qingxia, Zhao Yazhi, Zhong Chuhong and Pan Yingzi to play and relax. , Li Yufeng, Li Yanshan and Xie Xie, the four beautiful girls called Qi Qi, and they came to love each other in different ways.
Wen Bixia's four daughters and elder brother's eldest brother served with all his heart, which made Kang Jianfei a little reluctant to think about Shu. He used to only treat a few girls as playthings, but now he has developed a deep love for a long time, and has already given birth to such a little feeling.
Finally, on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, all major cinema chains in Hong Kong have launched their own New Year blockbusters.
The Shaw Brothers film, which was roaring loudly half a year ago, was finally released. This sci-fi film, known as the Hong Kong version, quickly caused a sensation after its release.
Why is it a sensation?
Because it was only shown for two days, it had to be closed because the attendance rate was too low, breaking the record for the shortest release time of a Chinese New Year movie.
The so-called "Hong Kong version" promoted by Shaw Brothers has become a laughing stock in the industry. Those who are eager to buy tickets to watch sci-fi blockbusters are even more angry and cursed, and even some theaters have made a fuss about refunding tickets.
In the version in the original time and space, the screenwriter (Wen Jun) and the heroine (Zhong Chuhong) are now in DreamWorks, but director Zhang Guoming has not changed. After Shaw Brothers decided to make a sci-fi film, Zhang Guoming took the money and hired a screenwriter to write the script. Because the elements and selling points of the film are proposed by Shaw Brothers and the director, the script written is not much different, and it is still a noisy urban comedy with a sci-fi skin.
Those spectators who bought the tickets were like friends who went to the duck shop to have fun. As soon as the door was opened, they saw a forty or fifty-year-old aunt lying on the bed, and their hearts were broken.
Although Jin Yong has a good relationship with Shao Yifu, this issue is the worst "blockbuster" in the history of Hong Kong film, none of which is one. "
According to Shaw Brothers, the production cost was 8 million Hong Kong dollars, but the audience who watched the film doubted whether the film cost 800,000.
Due to the full-scale release of Shaw Brothers theaters, plus the overwhelming publicity, it won 520,000 box office on the first day, which is a good start. But on the second day, due to the bad reputation, it only sold 80,000 box office, and the average attendance rate was less than 20%.
(The box office in all data is 6 million, but it was only released for 2 days, but it is not deceiving. If it can sell 6 million at the box office in 2 days, if it continues to show, it will definitely be the box office champion of the year. )
After rushing to outer space, the Shaw Brothers theaters urgently released the starring Dillon and Er Dongsheng.
Shao tycoon pinned his hopes on turning things around, but this sci-fi blockbuster highlights Shaw Brothers' decline. But what he did next inspired the Hong Kong film industry. The Shaw Brothers cinema chain, which had no good films, actually started showing Hollywood films, and it was the box office champion in North America last year.
In Hong Kong, the Anle Cinema chain of the Jiang family has always shown western films. There are only four theaters under the Anle Cinema chain. This time, it is impossible to win the Shaw Brothers Cinema chain, which has more than ten theaters. .
The discerning industry insiders have already seen Shao Daheng's thoughts. In the past, Shaw Brothers Cinema Company and Shaw Brothers Film Company held back each other. com Shao Yifu can't do anything if he loses it. This time, it is to borrow Hollywood films to make up for the lack of high-quality film sources in the Shaw Brothers cinema chain. Maybe the Shaw Brothers Film Company will be reformed next.
If Shao Daheng's plan is successful, Shaw Brothers Pictures and Shaw Brothers Cinemas may be able to come back to life.
The New Art City comedy that was released on the Golden Princess Cinemas didn't last long. It was released in a hurry after only a week of showing, and the box office was only over 3 million. However, what came out next made Kang Jianfei shake his head and sigh, because the producer of this film is Chen Xunqi's Yongjia Film Company.
Competing with Xu Ke, he won the box office of more than 9 million in one fell swoop.
As for Xu Ke's, the audience's evaluation of this film went to two extremes. Those who liked it thought it was a classic, but those who didn't like it rejected it as a bad movie because it couldn't get used to Xu Ke's fast pace. Only 10 days after it was released in the new era theaters, Hong Kong's accumulated box office was 7.83 million, much less than Chen Xunqi's.
After Xu Ke finished the film, he felt shameless and gave up the director's and screenwriter's remuneration. He only took 10% of the producer's share to maintain the film studio.
