Dreams of the Fragrant River

The Miss Oriental and Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant finals have ended one after another. Weng Hong and Chen Farong, the two beauty pageant champions, have naturally become the limelight of major newspapers and magazines.

The treatment of Miss Oriental this year is obviously different from the past. Although the bonuses and prizes have not decreased, the support from TV resources has dropped a notch.

In the past, the top three Miss Oriental had the opportunity to play the heroine and important female supporting roles in Phoenix TV's new film, and the new film was specially planned for beauty pageants. This TV series was dubbed "beauty pageant" by Hong Kong audiences.

However, this year's "beauty pageant" plan was cancelled. Only champion Weng Hong played the heroine in Phoenix TV's anti-wear drama "City Swordsman", while runner-up Wu Yongwei and third runner-up Wan Qiwen could only play ordinary supporting roles in the film.

This kind of change must be related to the new general manager Liang Shuyi, but she is not reforming randomly.

After years of development, the Oriental Entertainment Brokerage Company has a group of actors who specialize in TV performances. The representatives of these people are also known as the "Feng Jia Hua Dan" and "Master Xiaosheng" of Phoenix TV.

These Huadan and Xiaosheng have accumulated a lot of contacts and popularity: the contacts are in Dongshi Company and Phoenix TV, and popularity refers to the popularity of the audience.

Therefore, no matter because of the personal relationship between the producer and the director, or from the perspective of ratings, when filming new dramas, the Oriental TV production company will choose the TV stars they are familiar with as the male and female protagonists.

Nowadays, there are more and more so-called "Hua Dan" on Phoenix TV, and the competition is extremely fierce on weekdays. However, there is a quota for the annual large-scale production dramas of Dongshi Company, and a quota is allocated to "beauty pageant dramas". Then there will be fewer big production resources left, which is not conducive to the development of Dongshi and Phoenix TV, and will reduce the loyalty of first-line old-school actors to the company.

Huang Xizhao was the general manager of Phoenix Television. This contradiction has been exposed, but his character is somewhat indecisive, and he has not carried out reforms until he leaves office.

The newly appointed Liang Shuyi did not have any burden, and immediately abolished the "beauty pageant drama". In the future, only the champion of Miss Oriental can directly play the heroine, and the runner-up and third runner-up can only slowly climb up from small supporting roles.

The so-called "beauty pageant" was originally set up to attract beautiful women to sign up for Miss Oriental. Now the Miss Oriental beauty pageant is on track. Even if it is abolished, it will have little effect.

...

"Notes on Tomb Raiders" is still hotly serialized on "Oriental Daily". After the first story in the newspaper is over, book fans are even more looking forward to the movie of the same name.

Right now. Kang Jianfei, who has been immersed in filming, suddenly announced that he would spend 230 million Hong Kong dollars to purchase "Daily Daily", "Daily Express", "Star TV", "Financial Daily", "Fresh Weekly" and Tiantian Color Printing under Yulang International. company.

Once the news was confirmed, it immediately caused a sensation in public opinion. The paper media industry is naturally shouting that the wolf is coming.

The Hu family of Sing Tao Group has a deeper resentment towards Kang Jianfei. They have been staring at this piece of fat for more than two years. Seeing that the melon is about to ripen, Kang Jianfei actually ran out halfway to pick peaches.

Peninsula Hotel, meeting room.

Under the flashing spotlight, Kang Jianfei signed his name, then put down his pen and stood up to shake hands with Huang Yulang. The two smiled and faced the cameras of the reporters.

"Mr. Kang, you are buying newspapers and magazines in a big way this time. Do you want to enter the media industry in an all-round way?"

"I've always been in the media industry. Phoenix TV and the "Painting King" pictorial are also media. This time it's just a few more newspapers and magazines."

"Mr. Huang, it is rumored that Yulang International has serious debt problems. Is this true?"

"Sorry, this is a commercial secret, so I don't want to disclose it. However, I reserve the right to investigate the malicious rumors of some people. Before signing the contract, Mr. Kang has sent someone to fully investigate the situation of our company. There is definitely no problem with Yulang International, and this is the basis for our cooperation with each other."

"Since there is no problem with Yulang International, why does Mr. Huang still sell his company?"

"..."

The reporters surrounded them. Although all kinds of tricky questions came up, Kang Jianfei and Huang Yulang were still very patient in answering them one by one.

Huang Yulang wanted to use this to publicize that Yulang International has gotten rid of the financial predicament, and Kang Jianfei's more than 200 million Hong Kong dollars is enough to revitalize the remaining companies of Yulang International.

Kang Jianfei is just a simple propaganda campaign, and he has a big move later, which is to integrate these newly purchased newspapers and magazines with Dark Horse Comics and "Painting King" pictorial to form a large-scale media that integrates publishing and distribution. company.

"Mr. Kang, do you want to have a meal together?" Huang Yulang asked with a smile after entering the elevator.

Kang Jianfei politely declined: "No need, I have an appointment at noon."

"If that's the case, then I won't bother." The smile on Huang Yulang's face never stopped. Obviously, he was very happy. He received more than 200 million funds at one time, which made it rare for him to worry about money for more than a year. He breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Meifeng followed Kang Jianfei with the documents in between. After getting in the car, she was about to speak when Kang Jianfei's mobile phone suddenly rang.

The call was from Ma Chengkun: "Brother, don't say anything about such a big thing. I'll treat you tonight to congratulate you?"

"Another day, there is an appointment tonight." Kang Jianfei declined, he knew what Ma Chengkun wanted him to do.

Today, the top-selling newspaper in Hong Kong is Ming Pao, Ma Chengkun’s Oriental Daily is the second, Tian Tian Daily, which Kang Jianfei has just bought, is the third, and Sing Tao by Hu’s family is the fourth. Daily”, and the fifth best-selling is the “Hong Kong Daily” in the hands of Huang Yulang.

"Oriental Daily" has been cooperating harmoniously with Kang Jianfei's Oriental Culture Group Company, not only Kang Jianfei's serialization in "Oriental Daily", but also the exclusive news of stars from Phoenix TV, DreamWorks and Popular Records, all of which are disclosed to "Oriental Daily" for reporting and publicity. .

Since there are two characters "Oriental" and they have always cooperated happily, people who didn't know it thought that "Oriental Daily" was also Kang Jianfei's business. Kang Jianfei also thought about buying or taking a stake in the "Oriental Daily", but every time he tried, Ma Chengkun always perfunctory with a haha.

Now that Kang Jianfei has bought a lot of newspapers and magazines, not only will his papers not be published in the "Oriental Daily" in the future, but also so many star news from the Oriental Group can no longer be given priority to the "Oriental Daily".

It was because of this that Ma Chengkun couldn't wait to invite Kang Jianfei to dinner, but Kang Jianfei also avoided it.

...

Sing Tao Newspaper Building, Wan Chai Road.

The 57-year-old Hu Xian looked at the photo of Kang Jianfei shaking hands with Huang Yulang in the newspaper, and was so depressed that he couldn't speak for a long time.

Thirty-five years ago, 22-year-old Hu Xian took over Sing Tao Daily. At that time, the newspaper office was still in a state of loss. She single-handedly reversed the situation and finally made Sing Tao Newspaper listed in Hong Kong. Now she has almost monopolized the real estate advertising in Hong Kong.

Although the current circulation of "Sing Tao Daily" is not as good as that of "Daily Daily", its annual profit is nearly half that of "Daily Daily". The most important factor is the huge profits of real estate advertising.

Hu Xian's assistant was an old aunt who had been with her for more than 20 years. The old aunt had a bad idea and said, "Mr. Hu, we didn't see Kang Jianfei walking with Zhao Yazhi last week, and Zhao Yazhi was still holding a child. Would you like to let the reporters from the Evening News take some photos so that the general public of Hong Kong can see the true face of Kang Jianfei!"

"Forget it, given Kang Jianfei's current status, this kind of news is not painful to him. Also, Zhao Yazhi hasn't been filming in the past two years. It is estimated that he will not return to the entertainment industry again. It is meaningless to report their scandals." Hu Xian shook her head and said that she had already discovered that Zhao Yazhi and Kang Jianfei had an illegitimate child, because Hu Xian lived near Zhao Yazhi's villa.

The old aunt said: "This Kang Jianfei is too hateful. We have been planning to buy "Daily Daily" for more than a year, and he came to pick it up without any effort. How can there be such a good thing in the world!"

"Forget it, I'll give him the "Daily Daily". Since Kang Jianfei has decided to make a newspaper, even if he can't buy the "Daily Daily", he will buy other newspapers. It will be long in Japan, and everyone will be competitive in the future. Known as the queen of Hong Kong's newspaper industry, what she is now worried about is the follow-up impact of Kang Jianfei's participation in the newspaper industry, not just the "Daily Daily" being robbed.

The old aunt knew what Hu Xian was thinking and comforted: "Mr. Hu, don't worry too much. Kang Jianfei is good at making movies, but he is not necessarily good at running newspapers. "Sold."

Naturally, Hu Xian did not believe in such comforting words, she said: "In the future, Sing Tao Daily should remain neutral about Kang Jianfei's related reports, and don't blindly criticize Kang Jianfei. Many fans of Kang Jianfei have already written letters. Complained."

Kang Jianfei's fans wrote to complain about "Sing Tao Daily" for not a day or two~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The old aunt asked in surprise: "Mr. Hu, did you make any decision?"

"You still know me," Hu Xian smiled helplessly. "The mainland's newspaper industry has been opened to foreign investment. I plan to open a newspaper in Shenzhen next year."

The old aunt suddenly realized that Hu Xian was going to change his position and go to the mainland.

The reason why "Sing Tao Daily" scolded Kang Jianfei was because "Sing Tao Daily" belonged to a rightist newspaper at the beginning, and Kang Jianfei was scolded after being banned by Taiwan.

Now that the time of Hong Kong's return is getting closer and closer, as long as the owner of "Sing Tao Daily" is not stupid, it is impossible to always choose Taiwan. Since Hu Xian chooses to move closer to the mainland, it is inevitable that he will no longer be scolded every time he meets Kang.

In fact, Hu Xian is not as beautiful as it seems on the surface. Huang Yulang suffered heavy losses in the stock market crash two years ago, and the same is true for Hu Xian. Before the stock market crash, Hu Xian used to make a profit of 200 million yuan by flipping the land, but now it is very difficult for her to get 200 million in cash. The acquisition allowed Kang Jianfei to buy "Daily Daily" at a bargain price. (To be continued..) u()
