Hong Kong ATV, high-level meeting—

ATV, which has temporarily survived the crisis, held its first high-level conference.

Wu Siyuan, Xiang Huaqiang, Xiang Huasheng brothers, and Zou Wenhuai and other senior ATV executives were all present.

According to past practice, as the chairman of ATV, Wu Siyuan should sit in the chairperson position on the front of the conference table.

After Wu Siyuan and the other four entered the conference room, applause rang out sporadically around him.

As the four leaders of ATV, Wu Siyuan and others nodded to everyone, and found their own seats and were about to sit down when the applause suddenly increased.

Slap sex!

Extremely enthusiastic.

Wu Siyuan, Xiang Huasheng, Xiang Huaqiang and Zou Wenhuai looked at each other because the warm applause was not for them, but for the bald man Jin Jiu who had just entered the room, Liu Dehua and Zhou Xingchi.

It is understandable that during this difficult period of ATV, the bald man Kim Kow, with Andy Lau and Zhou Xingchi, not only gave ATV employees and artists a long-awaited salary and pay, but also briefly saved ATV bankruptcy.

For countless people who rely on ATV to make a living, this is definitely a great favor. Therefore, everyone is so grateful and respectful to the Jin Jiu and the other two. After they came in, they couldn't help but applaud loudly.

However, everyone applauded Jin Jiu, Liu Dehua and Zhou Xingchi, which seemed to Wu Siyuan, Xiang brothers and others, was a slap in the face.

After Wu Siyuan sat down, he coughed awkwardly, then squeezed out a smile to Jin Jiu, Liu Dehua and Zhou Xingchi and said, "Three, thank you for your hard work recently. ATV has suffered a great disaster, internal and external troubles. You have been very hard for this period of time. If you hadn't helped and worked hard in the future, we might not have even held a meeting this time."

Jin Jiu smiled slightly and said, "This is everyone's credit, and the three of us have just tried our best."

Liu Dehua said: "Yes, since we are senior ATV executives, of course we have to share the worries for ATV."

Zhou Xingchi is not as kind as Liu Dehua and said meanly: "Unlike some people, they only think of themselves when they are in trouble!"

As soon as these words came out, the surroundings were silent immediately.

Wu Siyuan, Xiang Xiasheng, Xiang Xiaqiang brothers, and Zou Wenhuai were all ashamed.

"Ahem, we are all ashamed now. As the leadership of ATV, we were unable to come forward to rescue the ATV crisis as soon as possible..." Wu Siyuan was a veteran in the entertainment industry after all, and immediately eased the atmosphere: "But the facts prove that heroes are young... It is precisely with you three that ATV can turn danger into safety."

Zou Wenhuai, who had not spoken much, suddenly said: "With that being said, the ATV crisis has not passed..."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help looking at Zou Wenhuai, knowing that this boss would not be aimless and would definitely be pointing out.

Sure enough, Zou Wenhuai took out a cigarette, lit it and said: "As we all know, this ATV crisis was because someone was making trouble later and took away the funds that ATV relied on for development halfway. With the impact of this incident, many people were no longer optimistic about ATV, and now they are even more worried about ATV's future development. This can be seen from ATV's performance in the stock market."

Everyone couldn't help but nod.

Indeed, ATV's recent series of storms have caused panic. Not only are Hong Kong people not optimistic about ATV, but even ATV's own employees and artists are not optimistic about ATV's prospects.

"So, I think ATV wants to make a real comeback. It must not only produce several big productions and the ratings are higher than TVB." Zou Wenhuai blew on the ashtray with a cigarette in his arms and continued: "Only in this way can everyone regain confidence in ATV. In fact, at ATV for so long, I understand one thing. Movies pursue box office and money. When the box office is high, they can make money. TV series, when the ratings are high, they can attract advertisers. Advertisers are willing to invest money, and TV stations can make money."

At this time, Xiang Xiasheng suddenly said: "At that being said, we are all good at making movies, comedy, action, horror, and any type of money we can make, but the limitations of TV series are too big, and many of them cannot be filmed. If you can't film, you can't attract audiences. If you can't attract audiences, how can you find an advertising agency? TV stations will of course be weak without advertising agency!"

"Haha, Mr. Zou, Boss Xiang, you and I are both filmmakers. To be precise, they are from filmmaking. They are used to filming for money. They are inevitably dancing in handcuffs when doing TV, which makes it difficult for them to be embarrassed. But we have ready-made professionals in front of us. They know how to act and understand the audience's psychology. More importantly, they have strong appeal - one is the king of heaven and the other is the king of comedy... Since they can solve ATV's last crisis, they may also solve ATV's ratings this time!" The old fox Wu Siyuan, holding a big cigar that has just been lit, looked at Liu Dehua and Zhou Xingchi with a smile.

Others also looked at the two Hong Kong superstars, and couldn't help but agree with Wu Siyuan's words.

If a TV series is not good, besides the story, the most important thing is the appeal of the actors.

Unfortunately, many actors on TV have good acting skills, but their appeal is too weak. Like the kung fu actor Zhen Zidan, who was recently promoted by ATV, but he has been a movie actor, but he has not been popular enough. The other two ATV actors Jiang Hua and Lu Songxian have accumulated some popularity through several big dramas, but compared with Liu Dehua and Zhou Xingchi, who were still on TV, they were still much weaker.

You know, when Liu Dehua was on TVB, he starred in a large production with extremely high ratings such as "The Falcon" and "The Return of the Condor Heroes". Although Zhou Xingchi became popular later than Liu Dehua, he also filmed excellent dramas such as "The Great Heroes" and "He Comes from the World".

It can be said that whether it is Liu Dehua or Zhou Xingchi, they are the two most successful "kings" who have switched from TV to movies.

If they were willing to lower their heads, lay down their stature and shoot TV series for ATV, the gimmick of "Return of the King" alone can bring ATV back to life.

But, will they?

...

In Hong Kong, making movies and TV are two circles. Although both circles belong to the entertainment industry, one is in the sky and the other is in the earth.

To be precise, many times, TV actors try to squeeze their heads and go to the movie circle. I have never seen a few people who will drop their own value from the movie circle to the TV circle - unless they can't make it, such as Zhen Zidan.

Zhen Zidan had a high starting point in the Hong Kong film industry. In his first play, he was attracted by the Eighth Master and filmed an action film about breakdancing called "Love Enemy".

After this drama was performed, it was very popular. However, because of its good skills, Zhen Zidan continued to be reused by a number of directors. In the late 1980s, he filmed many kung fu films, such as "High Voltage Line" and "Money Laundering" and other classic films.

However, with the decline of traditional Hong Kong kung fu films, Zhen Zidan had to become a supporting role in order to live, playing the eunuch "Cao Shaoqin" in "New Longmen Inn"; in "Huang Feihong's Man Should Strengthen Self-Enhancing", Jet Li played the role of "Nalan Yuanshu".

In 1994, for some reason, he couldn't stay in the film industry anymore, so he lowered his figure and was invited to ATV to film two dramas: "Shaolin righteous man Hong Xiguan" and "Jingwumen".

Because of Zhen Zidan's joining, the ratings of these two dramas were extremely high, and they once surpassed TVB. At that time, ATV put forward the banner: "When Zhen Zidan returns to the film industry, who will compete with the ratings!"

...

In contrast, Liu Dexia and Zhou Xingchi are now classified as "kings of the sky". Speaking of which, they are not on the same level as Zhen Zidan - but the top superstars among the film stars.

Not to mention anything else, as long as the two of them are willing to nod and agree to help ATV film, then ATV's ratings will definitely be "explosive" in the future - and it will be a big hit!
