Xiao Qi's guess was not bad. At nine o'clock the next morning, Li Yueming, the secretary-general of the provincial government, called and asked him to sit in a guest house not far from the provincial government. =
It may have a common name like a guest house, but in fact it was renovated from a Ming Dynasty manor. It consists of four or five small courtyards. Usually only high-level leaders come to stay there.
Because Xiao Qi is a businessman, he did not stay here. Instead, he arranged to stay at the Hilton Hotel 100 meters away.
However, in addition to accommodation, there is also very authentic Cantonese cuisine here. The chefs there are all well-known chefs in Guangdong Province. They bring their own teams to work here for one day every month to ensure that the catering here is full of characteristics.
It was already past morning tea time, and what I was brewing was a pot of authentic Pu'er tea.
People in eastern Guangdong do not so much like Pu'er tea as they want to promote Pu'er tea, so they carry forward Pu'er tea culture.
After entering the 1990s, several Pu'er tea hypes were related to them.
What Xiao Qi dislikes the most is this kind of hype, which is of no use to the country or the people and is a disruption to any order. However, it is only for his own selfish desires and just to gain some money.
Hou Mutai and the other three were left to study and adapt in the United States by Xiao Qi. I hope they can play their due role by then.
At this time, it was not only Xiao Qi and Li Yueming who were sitting at the table, but also two other middle-aged people.
One is Yu Qiusheng, director of the Guangdong Provincial Radio, Film and Television Bureau, and the other is Wang Wudao, director of the Guangdong Television Station.
Although Yu Qiusheng is at the department level and Wang Wudao is at the department level, to many people, they are the masters - the masters of the TV and movie industry!
They came here today to discuss with Xiao Qi the launch of TVB in eastern Guangdong.
To be honest, neither Yu Qiusheng nor Wang Wudao want to come here.
Yu Qiusheng was worried that there would be problems with TVB's news programs, interview columns, etc., which would cause him trouble.
Wang Wu Dao is because of the conflict of interests.
Before TVB landed in eastern Guangdong, it was broadcast on the eastern Guangdong station, but what programs were broadcast, what TV series were broadcast, and what advertisements were inserted in the middle were all decided by the eastern Guangdong station.
Of the advertising revenue obtained here, Guangdong TV Station gets 80%, while TVB only gets 20%.
What tvb received was less than half of the cost. Although its cost had long been earned back in Hong Kong, and it was a pure profit from selling in eastern Guangdong, when I think about it, the eastern Guangdong TV station got it for almost nothing.
Four times as much as me, I felt too unbalanced.
To this end, Mr. Shao Liuye initiated numerous relationships of his own. He did not expect to have the final say on the broadcast of the program, nor did he expect that the advertising would be decided and negotiated by himself. However, he wanted to achieve at least a 50-50 split, but ultimately failed.
Because there is nothing to talk about in this regard, Guangdong East TV Station will not give in at all. Whether you want to broadcast it or not, they will not give up the initiative anyway.
In the end, Shao Liuye relented, and he could still get a profit of 40% of the cost if it was broadcast. If he didn't accept the broadcast, he could only rely on Hong Kong to make money. The more he can get, the more he can get.
TVB also knows that. In fact, Guangdong TV Station still pays more attention to the TVB channel, because TVB’s programs are very trendy and the TV series are good-looking, so it is basically the top three in terms of profitability among the dozen channels of Guangdong TV Station.
But the problem is that they have the channels, but you don’t, so they are determined to get TVB.
This is precisely why Wang Wudao is unwilling to come.
The net income of more than 2 billion yuan a year will suddenly be given to others in vain. No one can agree to this change.
On the contrary, an important reason why Mu Xuefei, Liu Wei and others agreed was exactly this - after taking advantage of them for so many years, they now have a new boss and they want to resolutely get back the benefits. It is impossible to be like before.
It looks so ugly when you eat like that!
But both Yu Qiusheng and Wang Wudao had to come.
Both the Guangdong Radio and Television Bureau and the Guangdong TV Station are government units. They cannot make the decision themselves. How can they express their opinions on matters that even the provincial party secretary and governor have agreed to?
To put it bluntly, no matter whether they got into trouble or how much money they made, it had nothing to do with the two of them as long as the boss said it.
No matter how big the trouble is, can Yu Qiusheng be allowed to take the bullet directly?
No matter how much money he makes, can Wang Wudao become a rich man?
Obviously it was impossible, so after seeing the provincial governor's firm attitude, they had no choice but to compromise.
However, even though they are here, it does not mean that they will have a good look when they look at Xiao Qi. Although they will not glare at Xiao Qi, a year of indifference is inevitable.
Especially Wang Wudao, how many people in this Guangdong TV station rely on TVB channel advertisements to get bonuses? You are ruining people's wealth, how can you have a good look on Xiao Qi?
"Everyone has seen it, so let's talk about business." Compared to Wang Wudao and Yu Qiusheng, Li Yueming didn't have any entanglements. He only knew that this was what the big boss asked him to do, and Mu Xuefei intervened.
Then there is no problem at all. "I would like to reiterate here that the Guangdong Provincial Government supports the official launch of TVB, and the interests of Hong Kong compatriots should be fully respected. Both Guangdong Radio and Television Bureau and Guangdong TV Station must
Cooperate with TVB on the principle of equality and mutual benefit."
In fact, in this case, he had already emphasized this to Wang Wudao and Yu Qiusheng before Xiao Qi came, and now he was just showing his goodwill to Xiao Qi.
"I can't relax in terms of review." Yu Qiusheng took the lead in expressing his point of view, "In addition to TVB's own review being strict, our Radio, Film and Television Bureau will also pay attention at any time. Once there are reports, news, and programs that violate the regulations,
, TV content happens, then fines and rectifications must be made.”
"There is no problem with this. They will communicate well." Xiao Qi nodded. Yu Qiusheng was already giving in. Fines and rectifications are just a formality. TV stations with backgrounds and capabilities will soon adjust.
.
As for TVB's programs, there should be no special tendency. Being impartial is the best choice for a TV station.
It can be seen from this that Yu Qiusheng is very aware of current affairs. After all, he has been greeted by several big bosses. He will not take the initiative to provoke Xiao Qi. It is best to discuss it first and not to cause trouble for him.
Yes.
In contrast, the other Wang Wudao is not so easy to talk to. "Qi Shao, I know that Guangdong TV Station was a bit strict before. How about this? What do you think about each of us getting half of the advertising fees?"
Although he was smiling, Wang Wudao's voice was loud and the content of his words was also very interesting.
Xiao Qi was not an idiot, so he asked gently: "Master Wang, what do you mean, except for the distribution of money, all the rules and regulations remain the same?"
Wang Wudao didn't expect Xiao Qi to be so direct. He wanted to shirk the blame, but his immediate boss, the Standing Committee of the Provincial Committee, was sitting next to him. How could he dare to say such a thing?
"Haha, Mr. Qi, it's good if you understand it this way." Wang Wudao could only bite the bullet and continue, "TVB is a Hong Kong TV station after all. How to operate a channel in the mainland? We still don't have enough experience. And we have to check it.
It definitely gives them less to worry about, doesn’t it? You can sit on the ground and share the money without any effort, which is actually very good!”
At first glance, what Wang Wudao said is correct. You only need to take care of your own Hong Kong affairs, and sell the rest to Guangdong TV Station. The profit is equivalent to 100% of the profit in Hong Kong, which is equivalent to double the profit. How great would this be?
Something!
But Xiao Qi doesn't see it that way. Because Wang Wudao's proposal is to passively sell the program, and Xiao Qi's intention is to let TVB truly integrate into the life of eastern Guangdong and become a part of the lives of people in eastern Guangdong, further increasing the popularity of TVB
Radiation in eastern Guangdong.
If you let others do it, you will get more money.
Developing and broadening channels by yourself means that you are getting stronger and stronger. Even if the eastern Guangdong province wants to change in the future, there will be no way - according to Wang Wudao's method, if the eastern Guangdong TV station wants to jam tvb, it will be jammed.
No difficulty at all.
Xiao Qi was not the only one who was smart. Li Yueming frowned. He was very dissatisfied with Wang Wudao's behavior of avoiding the important and taking the easy.
This is no longer just the matter of the big boss Liu Wei, but also the face of Mu Xuefei's personal instructions. How dare you, a mere department-level cadre, dare to violate it so boldly? Isn't this a slap in the face of me, the supervisor?
?
As a result, before he could speak, Xiao Qi spoke first: "There is no problem in terms of sharing, 50-50 is 50-50. But I think TVB, as an independently produced TV station, should be qualified to win one of the Guangdong East TV stations
Channel, run and manage it yourself. This is how we in the mainland take care of our Hong Kong compatriots, and it is also the correct way to treat our collaborators."
"Operate and manage by yourself?" Wang Wudao didn't expect Xiao Qi's appetite to be so big. He thought Xiao Qi would only talk about accepting advertisements.
"Yes! As far as I know, in mainland TV stations, each channel is independently operated and managed, right? The main station above is only responsible for supervision and overall planning. The specific operations are still a group of professional elites on each channel."
Xiao Qidao: "Why can't we let TVB be like them? Is it incorrect to say that Guangdong and Hong Kong belong to the same family? Or do you have any discrimination against Hong Kong investors?"
"Nonsense! We..."
Wang Wudao's expression suddenly changed, but before he could finish scolding him, Li Yueming over there was startled: "How presumptuous! Director Wang, please pay attention to your words and deeds!"
Liu Wei didn't even dare to scold Xiao Qi like this. He, a small director, dared to roar like this. Wouldn't this be a disgrace to the people of eastern Guangdong?
After he roared like this, Wang Wudao also woke up, and then he recalled that the people in front of him were not his subordinates, but the richest man in the world, and a distinguished guest from Eastern Guangdong Province. Who could he fool at will? (To be continued)
