Dreams of the Fragrant River

Chen Shuli knocked on the door and walked into the office, saying, "Boss, there was a call from Phoenix TV just now, saying that the audience rating statistics for the beauty pageant finals have come out. [;Starting] The highest audience rating of the Miss Oriental beauty pageant final is 48%, and the TVB side. …”

"Higher right?" Kang Jianfei asked with a smile.

Seeing that Kang Jianfei didn't seem unhappy, Chen Shuli said, "Yes, the highest viewership rate of the Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant final is 51%."

Kang Jianfei nodded in satisfaction and said, "It's already very good. If you can fight against the Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant, you only lose a few percentage points."

The audience rating of the Miss Oriental beauty pageant was lost to Miss Hong Kong. It would be a lie to say that Kang Jianfei was not disappointed, but he did not have too many regrets about the result.

After all, Miss Hong Kong has been held for more than ten years, and it has long been popular in Hong Kong. It is really difficult to beat the other party with only a few months of hype.

You must know that last year's Miss Hong Kong finals had a viewership rating of close to 80%. This year, Miss Dongfang lowered the ratings by 30 points. Phoenix TV can already be said to have a brilliant record.

In the original time and space, Qiu Degen's Miss Asia pageant was also crushed by Miss Hong Kong in the first year. Until the second one was held in Queen's Square, the garden house was used as a prize to attract the audience's attention. On the topic of public opinion created by Lizhi, the Asian sister that year barely overshadowed the Hong Kong sister's limelight.

Moreover, the current TV ratings statistics are very problematic. Whether it is the statistics of Phoenix TV or TVB, there is a lot of water in it. It can only be used as a reference. As long as the data is not too different, there is no need to go too far. True.

Chen Shuli continued: "Manager Zhong is going to hold an on-site award ceremony for the Miss Oriental champion. He asked you if you would like to participate in person the day after tomorrow."

"Go, of course." Kang Jianfei said with a smile. Only by going can he show the importance he attaches to Miss Dongfang's beauty pageant.

"Then I'll talk back now. Let's make some arrangements over there." After Chen Shuli finished speaking, she left the office and called the TV station.

This time the beauty pageant, although the Phoenix TV lost 3 percentage points of ratings. But it did not lose out in terms of social attention.

Right now, there are more than ten newspapers on Kang Jianfei's desk, such as relatively neutral ones. Just take the beauty pageant as a topic, and use a whole page to report the grand occasion of the Miss Hong Kong and Miss Oriental finals.

Of course, Miss Hong Kong was reported ahead of Miss Dongfang. This is mainly due to two reasons. One is that Miss Hong Kong has a deeper background, and the other is that Jin Yong has a deep personal relationship with Shao Yifu.

But as far as the content of the report is concerned, the two beauty contests are evenly divided.

Quote tvb's propaganda. He praised Gao Lihong as a modern woman who "combines Chinese and Western, exudes the beauty of Hong Kong", and reflects the charming style of Hong Kong's international metropolis. Also known as Lizhi, this year's beauty pageant, the most feminine perfect woman. Qiu Huixin is a typical example of a good wife and a good mother, with both traditional and modern female beauty.

While praising today's Miss Hong Kong for her boldness and innovation, she also invited professionals to comment on the details of Miss Oriental's clothing, hairstyle, jewelry and other details, praising Miss Oriental for leading the fashion trend in Hong Kong.

I really didn't open my eyes and talk nonsense, after the Miss Oriental beauty pageant final was broadcast. Immediately, countless female audience members called Phoenix TV and asked where the contestants could buy the clothes they were wearing.

Anes_b., the clothing sponsor of the Miss Oriental beauty pageant, took the opportunity to advertise on two TV stations, and hired the top three Miss Orientals as image spokespersons. In just a few days, the sales of clothing more than tripled.

And those barbershops in Hong Kong. They also organize hair stylists to learn the hairstyles of beauty pageants, hoping to use this trend to win business.

In comparison, the Miss Hong Kong final is far worse in terms of fashion trends.

The sailors, flight attendants and nurse uniforms worn by the Hong Kong sisters at the opening are indeed refreshing and extremely tempting, but it is impossible for ordinary women to wear pink nurse uniforms on the street, right?

And the hairstyles of the Hong Kong sisters are also not flattering. Gao Lihong has an explosive lion head permed. The hairstyles of the other beauties are also made by the hair stylists under TVB, which are not much better than ordinary barbershops.

Because of this, although the Miss Oriental beauty pageant lost to Miss Hong Kong in terms of ratings, the follow-up attention has faintly surpassed that of Miss Hong Kong.

In the past few days, Hong Kong's fashion and women's magazines have reported extensively on the styles of Miss Oriental's beauties, and there are already signs of setting off a fashion trend in Hong Kong.

...

July 8, 1984.

Kang Jianfei was going to fly to the capital in a few days, and Zeng Bolin had already helped him with all the formalities.

After 20 days of release, it has already won a box office of 14.87 million, and finally released the film across the entire Oriental Cinema Line, renting the copy to those small theaters at a low price for the second round of screening.

The box office data of 14.87 million has long exceeded the box office in the original time and space, which made Kang Jianfei very surprised.

As for why the box office is 4 million more than the original time and space, the reason is actually very simple, that is, the original film was released during the hottest summer season, which just collided with the waiting film, which invisibly diluted its box office.

Not only that, due to the tight summer schedule of the Golden Harvest Cinemas, the movie in the original time and space was two weeks after its release, although the attendance rate was not bad, but it had to make room for the later movies, so that the box office just broke 10 million. Hastily.

But now it is completely different. Kang Jianfei will arrange the release before the opening of the summer vacation, avoiding the competitive films of other theaters. And because the audience is not dominated by students, this move not only did not cause the loss of potential audiences, but instead greatly increased the box office due to thriving. In addition, the show time is nearly a week longer than the original time and space, and the box office will naturally rise.

It can be seen from this that a suitable film arrangement plan can really greatly increase the box office of a movie.

The sensation in Hong Kong was more than just the June box-office hit. The most lively topics in Hong Kong during this period, apart from the two beauty contests, were the so-called provincial and Hong Kong flag soldiers and Sino-British negotiations.

Because at the end of May, the Celestial Dynasty was finally in the middle and formally proposed the "one country, two systems" policy in written form, which was regarded as a reassurance for many people in Hong Kong's business circles. Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index rose from 700 points to more than 800 points within a month.

Coupled with the exposure of the Hong Kong business community's visit to Beijing, the Sino-British negotiation has once again attracted public attention, which reflects the fact that mainlanders have committed crimes in Hong Kong. Naturally, it has also been hyped for being close to reality and politics.

In fact, on July 4, that is, two weeks after the release. It was gradually reduced due to the drop in attendance. The vacant canvas was arranged to show the heroines, mostly newcomers, including Shi Hui's daughter Fu Mingxian and Chen Xiuwen's sister Chen Jialing. The director was still directed by McDonald's.

The original novelty of the series has faded, and many of the jokes have grown dull.

In other words, the potential of the series has been tapped. It’s hard to make a big difference if the filming continues, and the production department has already considered canceling the filming plan.

Fortunately, it is the summer season, and countless students have contributed a lot to the box office. After all, there is no better youth campus comedy in Hong Kong today.

Shows for a week. It successfully won the box office of 6.81 million, and the data is not ugly. After all, this movie was only shown in 10 theaters at the beginning, and the remaining theaters in the Oriental Cinema Line are still showing.

But by the eleventh day of its release, its attendance rate had dropped to about 60%. Obvious lack of stamina.

At the same time, Shaw Brothers, which is about to stop production, is still struggling at this time, and its summer flagship film has been officially released.

It is very funny to say, the director is Chen You, and the screenwriter is Zhang Jianting. And the two also starred in the film as the male lead and the first male supporting actor-they are all contracted artists under Kang Jianfei.

As for Shaw Brothers' own directors, many of them have left or are about to leave Shaw Brothers now, and the rest are just waiting to die, trying to deceive themselves by making some movies that can't sell at the box office.

At most, he could last for another week. By then, Kang Jianfei had already returned from the capital, and it was his turn to show off his power.

But this is another story. It has only been released for a week, and Kang Jianfei has to participate in the on-site award of the Miss Oriental champion.

...

Outside a garden villa on Heifu Road in Hong Kong, it was only nine o'clock in the morning when reporters from more than 50 media gathered.

Because just today, Kang Jianfei was going to hand over the keys to the villa and a car inside, as well as a check for 50,000 yuan in cash, to Lizhi in front of many reporters.

Xifu Road is close to Waterloo Road and Oxford Road. The latter two roads are famous villa areas in Hong Kong. Although the value of villas on Xifu Road is slightly lower, it is considered to be of high gold content.

The three-storey garden villa on Heifu Road, although the housing price in Hong Kong is super cheap, it is still out of reach for the working class. In the past, no matter how expensive Hong Kong’s housing prices were, the wage earners could still rely on loans to buy a house. Now the major banks are also having a hard time. There are only a few banks that have been taken over by the government. It is very difficult for ordinary people to find banks to borrow.

And now there is a miracle happening. The mainland girl, who was originally penniless, can get a villa through a beauty pageant, which will definitely make countless Hong Kong citizens talk about it (eyes are jealous).

"Come, come! That Cadillac is Mr. Kang's car." A sharp-eyed reporter shouted.

Before the car stopped, reporters scrambled to grab an interview seat and surrounded the Cadillac.

Liu Fei was tall and tall, wearing a majestic suit at this time, first got out of the car and pushed the reporter away to make room for Kang Jianfei.

"Mr. Kang, you said you want to make a movie for the beauty pageant champion. When will the movie start?"

"I heard that there is a shady scene in the beauty pageant. Can Mr. Kang explain why Qiu Huixin, a fan of thousands of people, didn't win the championship?"

"Mr. Kang, what do you think of Sister Dong's loss of ratings to Sister Hong?"

"..."

Kang Jianfei kept smiling without saying a word, and came to the villa smoothly under the **** of Liu Fei and Zhu Zhenguo.

Not long after, Zhong Jinghui and others also arrived, and then everyone stood in front of the gate of the villa and waited for more than ten minutes.

"What kind of plane is it, and I'm late to receive the award. This Limei is too big."

"Mainlanders are like this, when the villain becomes arrogant, he becomes a beauty pageant champion and plays a big role."

"Dozens of people are waiting for her. Lizhi can really do it."

"..."

The reporters have already started to talk a lot, expressing their dissatisfaction with Lizhi from time to time. If they were asked to wait for well-positioned people like Kang Jianfei, Shao Yifu, and Zou Wenhuai, these reporters could wait a day, but Lizhi, a mainland girl who had just ascended to the top, would not have this kind of treatment.

What's more, although there are many people who praise Lizhi these days, there are also many people who ridicule and abuse her. Just being a mainland girl is enough for Hong Kong people to despise her.

At the cusp of such a storm, Lizhi actually dared to play a big name, she was simply killing herself.

Of course Lizhi wouldn't be so stupid. Today's lateness was just deliberately arranged by the company and was part of the follow-up hype.

After everyone waited for nearly 40 minutes, a luxury car of the Oriental Entertainment Company drove into the villa, and the window was lowered to reveal Lizhi's beautiful face.

Under the surprised eyes of the reporters, Kang Jianfei quickly walked over to open the car door, and Li Zhi stretched out a long leg and got out of the luxury car incomparably proud. The expensive clothes she was wearing at this time were also specially gifted by anes_b.. She was full of jewels and charm, which blinded the reporters' eyes.

"Crack~www.wuxiaspot.com~Crack, click..."

The camera of the reporters recorded this scene. A beauty pageant champion made the big boss of the film company stand and wait for 40 minutes, and finally asked the boss to surrender his identity to open the door for her. This is definitely a big news.

After the news spreads, I am afraid that next year's Miss Oriental beauty pageant will make Hong Kong beauties flock to it.

Because Kang Jianfei is deliberately creating an atmosphere, which is to imply that everyone, once she becomes the Miss Oriental beauty pageant champion, then she will have all the fame, fortune and status, a typical story of Cinderella becoming Snow White.

Several staff members came over with trays in hand. Kang Jianfei picked up the two sets of keys on the red silk of the tray and handed them to Lizhi. He smiled and said, "Congratulations, Miss Li."

"Thank you!" Lizhi said with a smile.

After handing over the keys of the villa and the car, the two held up a big sign symbolizing a check of 50,000 yuan and posed together for reporters to take pictures.
