We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong
#106 - Hello, what are you doing?
The proposals for these three variety shows were printed in multiple copies, so every executive present could get one to read.
The meeting room immediately quieted down as everyone picked up a proposal to read.
In reality, the content wasn't much; each show's content was only a single page.
However, everyone read with great seriousness, as these were personally given by the boss.
Originally, Liang Shuyi, Ye Jiexin, and others, although looking at them earnestly after receiving them, still held some skepticism in their hearts, but they just didn't show it.
After a long while, Su Cheng saw that everyone was placing the proposals on the conference table, and he said with a smile, "You've all finished reading, right? What do you think?"
"Boss, I think these three shows are all fantastic. On a global scale, these ideas have almost never appeared before. Variety shows are easy to plan, but what's difficult is having good ideas. Moreover, we all know that many shows end after one or two seasons, but the lifespan of these shows will definitely be very long. Now, our CTV has a chance to surpass them. What a grand plan! Could it be that the boss hired the world's top show planners to plan these?" Liang Shuyi thought of Su Cheng's super-rich status and couldn't help but ask.
"These were all my own ideas," Su Cheng said with a nonchalant smile.
These words stunned everyone.
Originally, everyone thought that Su Cheng was only talented in business, but they didn't expect him to be such a talented person as well.
"Everyone should know about 'A Step into the Past,' right? Actually, that was also written by the boss," Yang Chaoye said with a smile from the side at this time.
After taking office, he was naturally very curious about the sudden shift from loss to profit at Chivalrous Literature Company, so he specifically went to understand the company's specific situation. He didn't know until he investigated that all of this was actually Su Cheng's doing.
Everyone naturally knew about the novel 'A Step into the Past.' It was currently the most popular martial arts novel in Hong Kong, with a large number of readers. Even many CTV employees were its readers.
However, the author of 'A Step into the Past' had always been very mysterious. Almost no one knew who the real person was, only that he wrote this martial arts novel that swept through Hong Kong under the pen name Su Yi.
"No wonder the surname in the pen name is Su; it turns out it's the boss's pseudonym," Liu Tianci couldn't help but say.
At this time, everyone also suddenly understood, finally knowing who this mysterious author who had never shown his face was.
"Boss, doesn't that mean we can directly film a TV series of 'A Step into the Past'?" Suddenly, Liang Shuyi's eyes lit up, thinking of the key point.
It must be known that buying copyrights is also a very large expense. CTV has produced a full fifty or sixty TV series in the past three years, and among the production costs, copyright fees even reached more than 20%, especially for the top works of people such as Jin Yong and Gu Long, the copyright accounted for 30% to 40% of the total cost, which was normal.
"Of course, you can directly take the film and television copyright of 'A Step into the Past' to film. I'll write a letter of authorization for you then," Su Cheng said with a smile.
"With the boss's variety show proposals and the film and television copyright of 'A Step into the Past,' CTV's ratings will definitely skyrocket," Liang Shuyi said in surprise.
"Hong Kong is, after all, just a small place. I have high expectations for CTV. I hope that in a year, CTV can be watched in Wanwan, Macau, Singapore, and other places. In the future, we must expand the market to the whole world, instead of just messing around in Hong Kong!" Su Cheng said earnestly.
Hong Kong is just a starting point. The ambition must be big enough for CTV to have greater achievements.
"Boss, this goal is a bit big, but we will move towards this goal!" Liang Shuyi said.
"Let me give you a slogan: Wherever there are Chinese people, there is CTV! I hope that CTV can achieve this goal in the future!" Su Cheng said with a smile.
In another time and space, TVB achieved this accomplishment in the future. Most of the Cantonese programs produced by TVB are distributed in Mandarin and other languages to all parts of the world, including Asia, Australia, North America, and Europe, covering more than 300 million households.
Su Cheng felt that if CTV could reach this level, it would already be very good. After all, in the realm of television, it is impossible to monopolize the ratings worldwide. After all, the customs and habits of each place are different, and other countries cannot allow such an important tool of public opinion as television stations to be controlled by others.
Therefore, if CTV becomes the most popular television station among Chinese people, it will be enough.
"In addition, everyone should know about CTV's second channel, right? We must prepare this immediately. For the animation aspect, I will entrust a company in Dongying to buy the broadcasting rights of their currently most popular animations first. Then, we will produce some good educational programs. The boss has already discussed this with me, and I will discuss it with you in detail later," Yang Chaoye also said at this time.
Creating their own animations is currently impossible; they have to wait for more advanced computers to be developed. Therefore, purchasing broadcasting rights in the early stages is the most suitable method.
Moreover, Hong Kong is, after all, just a small place; it won't cost much to only purchase broadcasting rights for the Hong Kong region.
"You guys continue to discuss; I'll go out first." Talking to this point, Su Cheng knew that he didn't need to stay any longer. Coming here today was only to go through the motions.
After coming out of the meeting room, Su Cheng was not in a hurry to leave, but instead began to tour the CTV Television Building.
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ is ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!
The building is located on Broadcast Drive and is an 8-story building.
At this time, CTV's employees had reached the peak since its founding, with a full eight hundred employees.
In early 1978, CTV recruited TVB General Manager Liang Shuyi and many of her main subordinates with high salaries, including Ye Jiexin, Liu Tianci, Lu Guozhan, Lin Xuhua, and Shi Shaoming. They were collectively known as the "Six Gentlemen of CTV." Subsequently, CTV recruited on-screen and behind-the-scenes personnel who were originally employed by Wireless Television at high cost, increasing the number of employees throughout the station from about 600 in early 1978 to more than 800.
Therefore, CTV at this time can be said to be full of talent. With such a team, Su Cheng felt that it was not inferior to the other two television stations at all.
Along the way, Su Cheng saw familiar artists such as Michelle, Wei Qiuhua, Zheng Yuling, and Chen Huimin.
Upon seeing Su Cheng, everyone greeted him very warmly.
Upon learning that Hutchison's Taipan had actually become their boss, everyone was very excited.
Before this, CTV was at risk of going bankrupt, and everyone was worried about their future. Some people were even thinking about finding a way out in advance, but they didn't expect there to be a reversal.
Arriving on the 5th floor, Su Cheng suddenly saw a girl wearing a middle school uniform, carrying a schoolbag, peeking inside through the crack in the door in front of a rehearsal room.
Looking at her back, Su Cheng felt as if a youthful aura was coming towards him.
From her profile, Su Cheng felt that this girl seemed somewhat familiar; he should know her, but without seeing her face, he couldn't remember who she was for a moment.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Su Cheng directly called out with a smile.
