The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

How long has it been since you sat down and talked with Fu De?

Yang Dongxu can't remember this time clearly. He only remembers that when Fu Decai stepped down from the executive director due to personal scandals and retired behind the scenes to become a shareholder, the time for private conversations between the two became less and less.

So when there were only two people left in the office, the atmosphere suddenly became silent, neither of them knew what to talk about.

"Do you have any plans recently?" Yang Dongxu was the first to break the silence.

"There is no specific plan. Some time ago, I mainly had a meeting with Uncle Six to discuss things." Fu Decai said with a smile.

Although his status in Haina has plummeted, he is a shareholder of Haina after all, and he has undeniable credit for Haina's current status, so he still has a say in some matters in the entertainment industry.

And precisely because his status in Haina began to become awkward, his status in the circle in Hong Kong unexpectedly began to improve. Perhaps those rivals of Hainer wanted to find a breakthrough from him to lift a mountain that was pressing on the delivery.

It’s just that this idea now seems to be a fool’s dream, because anyone with a discerning eye can see that the entertainment circles in Hong Kong and Taiwan have begun to lose strength, or there are gaps in the ladder of celebrity cultivation.

It's not that they don't want to favor newcomers. The major entertainment companies are actively expanding the contracts of newcomers while keeping the old people to attract money for themselves, but things are so strange.

In the past, when we didn't praise newcomers and only wanted to squeeze them out, outstanding newcomers emerged one after another. As far as the current Hong Kong and Taiwan stars are concerned, almost all of them have made their way from the grassroots step by step to achieve their current status.

But now a lot of energy resources are spent on it, and there are even big names like top stars leading the filming, but the young people who have been promoted over the years are only a few who can be regarded as worthy, and the others can only be regarded as minor celebrities. , Then as if stuck, no matter how you push it, it won’t fire.

Some people say that Hong Kong and Taiwan's entertainment industry has gone from glory to decline because they are too arrogant and not proactive, or it has something to do with the rapid development of the world's entertainment industry and Hong Kong and Taiwan's lagging behind.

But in the final analysis, the reason is that there is a gap in the star echelon in front of me. In the past two years alone, there are really not many newcomers who can do it. Take female stars as an example. At the beginning there were Mei Yanfang, Lin Qingxia, Zhao Yazhi and others.

After that, Zhang Manyu, Qiu Shuzhen, and Wang Zuxian, who faded out of the film and television industry last year and came back, and so on. But this year, Zhang Bozhi became popular with the movie of Master Xing, and basically none of the other female stars can be on the stage.

It is better to talk about the male stars, whether it is Leslie Cheung, Alan Tam, or the four heavenly kings later on, or even Zhang Jiahui and Gu Tianle, who Haina has started to support now.

Compared with before, the number of female stars is not only smaller, but also their reputation is not as good as the previous generation. In terms of male stars, since the Four Heavenly Kings, no matter how popular the drama behind them is, or how popular they are, it still feels a little bit less interesting.

Even the people whom Heiner favors give people this feeling, let alone other entertainment companies. For example, Nicholas Tse, Shawn Yue and others promoted by other companies are not as popular as Zhang Jiahui and Louis Koo.

Therefore, many people in the circle feel that Hong Kong's entertainment industry still seems to be full of stars. After all, so many big stars are not only in Hong Kong, Taiwan and the mainland, but also in the whole of Asia. They have absolute box office appeal. But when watching the new generation, there is always a sense of decline.

"Frozen three feet is not a day's cold. There is no doubt that the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles took the right path before. The current popular stars are also proof of this. But it is also because they are too successful that I want to It was only when I was about to change that I realized that this ship is too big, and it is not easy for one or two people to change, or even the people on the ship to turn around."

"I know this, but I can't do it without changing. Where is it now, the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles give people a feeling that they are living on their laurels." Fude said helplessly.

In fact, what Yang Dongxu said was quite harmonious. In fact, not all the people on the ship wanted to turn around, or there were many people on the ship who were still preventing the big ship from turning around.

The brilliant Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment industry has bred many predators. These predators are currently at the helm of this big ship, and they can still draw far and constant funds from this ship.

And it is very obvious that not every big crocodile is as far-sighted as Uncle Six is, and is willing to give up a part of the profit to replenish fresh blood. They can't wait to swallow the cake that has already started to shrink into their stomachs.

Why did Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment companies move to the mainland one after another? Although this is directly related to the development of the mainland, it is more because the entertainment circles in Hong Kong and Taiwan are too controlled by these predators, and the entertainment companies of the younger generation can only look for opportunities in the mainland. This is also the reason why most of the people coming to the mainland are new entertainment companies, while traditional entertainment companies from Hong Kong and Taiwan are not so active.

"Taiwan is experimenting with variety shows. If you have time to sit with Uncle Liu, you can mention this." When you are poor, you can change and you will learn. Taiwan has done a very good job of this.

Whether it's TV dramas or movies, Hong Kong crushed Taiwan at the beginning. Later, when the Qiong Yao drama became popular, Taiwan regained a victory in TV dramas but was still at a disadvantage. Needless to say, movies were basically beaten.

Therefore, in this situation of being completely suppressed, although costume dramas have achieved certain success, Taiwan later began to switch to youth idol dramas. Movies really couldn't do it, and people began to switch to variety shows instead of movies.

These two changes seem to be helpless moves, but they also confirm the old saying, the tree moves the dead and the dead move to live. Taiwan's entertainment industry has made great achievements in these two aspects, and has successfully blazed a path of its own.

However, if the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles want to gain a breakthrough opportunity, they can only introduce Hollywood elements slowly. After all, Hong Kong is only one of the four Asian tigers, and there is no way to attract the attention of superstars all over the world. So variety shows are a good entry point.

After all, there are many comedian stars in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and there are enough superstars to attract attention. No matter what type of variety show they take, they have a strong foundation. With a good plan, even a second-rate director can get good ratings.

"I actually mentioned this. Uncle Six meant to give it a try, but other people's reactions were not so positive." Fude sighed.

As a shareholder of Haina, although he has been behind the scenes and even his power has been reduced, he is obviously more informed about Haina's news than others.

Ever since Yang Dongxu started overseas variety shows to help open up the Haina branch, Fudecai noticed this new entertainment model. Later last year, Haina signed a contract with Anhui Satellite TV to create an indoor variety show. Fudecai felt that this might be a good idea. It's a good way, otherwise Yang Dongxu, who has always been a hands-off shopkeeper, wouldn't pay so much attention to it.

But when he made this suggestion during the meeting, there were very few responses. The fundamental reason is still the one mentioned before, the blood that predators can still draw from the already emaciated Hong Kong entertainment circle.

The reality is not so bad that they can't change it at the time of life and death. There are only a few uncles who have a long-term vision, and it is obviously impossible for them to change the direction of this big ship.

In fact, this deadlock is not only in the Hong Kong entertainment circle, but also in the Mainland entertainment circle in later generations. Get rid of the factor of feelings, compared with the old actors, the young actors of the new generation, if you say that they are still young and need time to hone their acting skills, Yang Dongxu will recognize it. But at the very least, what should I say if I don't have the professionalism of filming?

So in a few years, the mainland entertainment industry will be similar to that of Hong Kong and Taiwan. Although variety shows have made some people popular, and there are dozens of TV dramas and movies a year, the younger generation of stars are accepted by the public except for a few. outside.

Others are basically based on various debates and entertainment headlines, or even simply swiping traffic. When it comes to mentioning the salary of tens of millions or hundreds of millions, there are many more stars than the older generation of stars, but those young people who swipe their mobile phones to watch gossip news can be counted. Know these people outside.

What are the representative works of making movies?

The song she sang was more popular.

All kinds of news are constantly flowing, the contemporary traffic niche, the huge fire and all kinds of Xiaohuadan

After staying in Yanjing for a few days, Yang Dongxu flew up. Although Yanjing is the place where he started, he undoubtedly feels more comfortable in the economic center compared to the political center.

So at present, apart from Haina's headquarters in Yanjing, although he has a lot of assets in Yanjing, most of his business is concentrated in the economically developed areas in the south. For example, Hurricane, Huaxiu, Dongxu, and even the newly established Rising Sun Technology and so on.

The headquarters building of Hurricane Construction started last year and is expected to be completed in the second half of next year. It was put into use in March 2001. The total design is 108 floors. It is currently the tallest building in Shanghai. Beyond the syringe that was just completed in April this year is the 88-story Jinmao Tower.

The Hurricane construction in the new year is not a big deal. Basically, it is centered around the construction of the headquarters building, and then continues to digest the land under the Pudong circle in previous years.

As for the previous development plan to go to Wanda Plaza, it is slowly advancing at the rate of 1 to 2 buildings per year. Although the operation of Wanda Plaza has brought a lot of income to Wanda, it has also planted a lot of hidden dangers. For example, Wanda's high debt ratio was abruptly pushed up by Wanda Plazas.

Yang Dongxu didn't dare to say that all the places in the circle had been circled, but basically he had a very solid foundation. Therefore, it is convenient to expand in the territory, and his choice can be more rational, and he can analyze it more from the perspective of profit, instead of adding burden to himself by staking the land non-stop.
