2612 [Wife Doting Madness]
The second reason why the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles are destined to decline is that the entertainment industry is an industry with a [siphon effect].
If the entertainment industry in a certain place develops, it will absorb the surrounding talents and funds, causing the entertainment industry in the surrounding areas to decline.
For example, in the era of Hong Kong's most developed film industry, such as Wang Xian, Lin Qingxia, Yang Ziqiong, Yu Rongguang, Li Lianjie, etc., celebrities from other places all came here to develop, and they were the most outstanding ones.
The American entertainment industry has also attracted celebrities and directors from all over the world, such as Nicole Kidman of Australia, Hugh Grant of the British Isles, and Cheng Long of Hong Kong... They are also elite talents from all over the world.
After the rise of the entertainment industry in China, a large number of Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japanese and Korean artists also came to China to dig out gold. For example, Taiwan’s variety show king Wu Zongxian, Film Awards Zhou Runfa, King of Commercial Films, King of Kings of Commercial Films... Almost all the best artists in Hong Kong and Taiwan have gone to the Central Mainland to develop.
The Hong Kong and Taiwan region have become a base for cultivating talents in the mainland. If one is famous, one will be poached by the mainland.
For example, Ke Zhen became famous for starring in "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years". But he was just two years after he became popular, he was poached to the mainland for filming by mainland film dealers. For example, Wang Dalu became famous for "My Girls' Generation" and was later poached to the mainland for filming.
Stars like Ke Zhen and Wang Dalu are all stars who are very likely to make a name for themselves in the Taiwanese entertainment industry. As a result, before they can create dividends, they have been poached by the mainland, which naturally causes heavy losses to the Taiwanese entertainment industry.
Over time, film merchants dare not promote newcomers anymore, so they can only blindly use the elderly to support the scene. For example, in Taiwan’s current variety shows, the current variety show celebrities are basically all old people, and they say some clichés, but there is no fresh content.
This has also led to almost no eye-catching newcomers in the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles in recent years. Even if there is a Deng Ziqian in Hong Kong, she is still popular by mainland variety shows.
The lack of anyone is available has made the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment industry increasingly sluggish. Later, TVB's annual revenue was only 200 million to 300 million, which is not even as good as the income of stars such as Fan Bingbing and Lu Han.
Against the backdrop of a sluggish environment, the life of ordinary artists is naturally difficult. Many artists are forced to change careers because they have no jobs, and even their livelihoods have become problems.
For example, Che Paul, who played Fatto in "The Deer and the Cauldron", lost his job because of TVB's reduction in staff and saving expenses, became a nursing worker in the hospital. His mother could not even pay for the funeral expenses after her mother died.
Tan Xiaohuan, who was once the champion of Miss Hong Kong, after working on TVB for more than ten years, found that she had no future and had no money to make money. She resolutely resigned and changed to the fish balls, which made more money than when she was an artist before.
And this is just an example of artists in front of the stage, and more staff behind the scenes are unemployed.
Zheng Zeshi once said that thanks to the decline of Hong Kong films, the king of kings could play more than ten movies every year, so that so many brothers could have food to eat. Otherwise, everyone would have to change careers.
The purpose of promoting cooperation between the three places in summer is to help these people find a job to avoid starving to death.
In addition, exchanges between the mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan will also help the development of the mainland entertainment industry.
...
In the past life, Hong Kong and Taiwan have greatly contributed to the development of the mainland entertainment industry.
In the early days, large amounts of funds from the mainland entertainment industry came from Taiwan and Hong Kong.
For example, Jiang Wen’s famous "Sunny Days" was invested by Hong Kong; Zhang Yimou’s "The Big Red Lantern Hanging High" was invested by Taiwanese and produced by the well-known Taiwanese director Hou Hsiao-hsien; Chen Kaige’s "Farewell My Concubine" and "Moon" were invested by Hong Kong Tongchen Film...
In addition, the exchanges between the three places have broadened the horizons of mainland literary and artistic workers and inspired their creative enthusiasm.
For example, in the 1990s, the popularity of two historical dramas about the Qing palace dramas "The Legend of Qianlong" and "The Legend of Cixi" set off a wave of Qing palace dramas in the mainland.
"Prime Minister Liu Luoguo", "Kangxi's Private Visit" and "Iron Teeth and Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan" were all inspired by these dramas. The production company that invested in "The Legend of Qianlong" and "The Legend of Cixi" was Feiteng Film and Television Company from Taiwan.
The mainland martial arts dramas and action movies are even more inseparable from the martial arts guidance of Hong Kong and Taiwan. For example, the famous "Water Margin" was directed by the eighth master Yuan Heping, so the fighting scenes look so satisfying.
In the early days, the mainland variety shows were able to reach a very outstanding level in just a few years, thanks to learning from Hong Kong and Taiwan. Even the audiences from Hong Kong and Taiwan were competing to watch the mainland variety shows.
Therefore, exchanges between the three places are not only beneficial to Hong Kong and Taiwan, but also to the mainland, which is also the reason why summer vigorously promotes cooperation.
...
"By the way, Miss Zhang, there is someone I hope you can help me find it." Xia Tian said again.
"Okay, I wonder who Xia Tian is talking about?!" Zhang Aijia nodded and asked when she heard this.
"Her name is Lin Lihui, and she should be a dancer. Yesterday I saw her on the Taiwan TV variety show "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother". She is helping Miss Xiao Qian dance with her." Xia Tian explained to her.
Zhang Aijia took out a small book and wrote it down carefully, "Mr. Xia, what should I do after I find her?"
"Well, after finding her, send her to Hong Kong to make a movie." Xia Tian ordered, "I think she has a good reputation and should be a good seedling."
"Oh?!" When Zhang Aijia heard this, she became curious about Miss Lin Lihui.
I don’t know how beautiful and elegant she is, she actually makes Xia Tian fall in love with her at first sight. This really makes her very curious.
"I understand, Mr. Xia." Zhang Aijia nodded and said.
"Well, in addition, you know the media. I don't want anyone to use the 'No. 1 Beauty in Taiwan' as a gimmick in the future." Xia Tian ordered again.
Zhang Aijia blinked in confusion, then suddenly realized.
Who is the most beautiful among Taiwanese women? I am afraid everyone has their own answer in their hearts, and it is different.
But if you ask who is the most beautiful Hong Kong lady in Hong Kong, the media will say in unison that it is Zhu Lingling. Because Zhu Lingling is the daughter-in-law of the Hong Kong wealthy Huo family, she has a much higher status than those beauties who are still working hard in the entertainment industry.
Therefore, even though Zhu Lingling is not the most beautiful person, she is not as good as Chung, Zhang Manyu, Zheng Wenya, and Zhao Yazhi, the media still awarded her the title of "The Most Beautiful Hong Kong Miss" and has not been transferred to others even now.
Wang Xian is both Taiwanese and beautiful, and both her husband and mother's family are the richest people in the same place, which can be said to be extremely rich.
The number one beauty in Taiwan is naturally the only one.
If someone dares to call himself "Taiwan's No. 1 Beauty", then it is obvious that she doesn't take her seriously, which will naturally make her husband unhappy.
"Okay, I understand, Mr. Xia." Zhang Aijia nodded and smiled, thinking that Xia Tian is really a wife-loving maniac.
