The next morning, Xiao Qi sat in the office of Yue Ling, the general manager of TVB.
All five top executives of TVB are here.
It's just that Yue Ling, Li Jiashu, Li Zhen, Guan Taizhao and Yu Yongshan were sitting on a set of sofas next to Xiao Qi. Xiao Qi didn't even sit upright. How could they dare to go so far?
When it comes to the distinction between superiors and subordinates among Hong Kong people, it is based on ancient etiquette and cannot have the casual atmosphere of the West.
Xiao Qi also felt a little helpless. He thought he could relax in Hong Kong, accompany his wife and daughter, and rest for ten days and a half. Unexpectedly, he was still so busy.
Yesterday I went out to have dinner with Yan Chenglong at noon, and today I have to go to TVB again during the day to guide TVB's next development work - the boss lady can't come over, so naturally the boss has to do it for me. Besides, the better TVB develops, Feng Kexin will
Fang Fang Sun's future will become brighter, and of course Xiao Qi cannot ignore it.
The first person to report on the work was Li Jiashu, "The Qing palace drama "Golden Jade" produced by our department has been broadcast on TVB after the Spring Festival. So far, the average ratings are 46.3%, and the ratings in Baodao and other regions are
It is 27%. The ratings in eastern Guangdong have also steadily reached 33%. The number of broadcasts on Xiaoniao.com has also reached an average of 13 million times per episode. The prospects are very optimistic! And the second mystery film "Detective"
"Don Charlie" will be broadcast after Producer Lee's urban romance drama."
Compared with when Feng Kexin was here, Li Jiashu was very honest. He was the one who promoted Feng Kexin before and was kind to Feng Kexin. Moreover, Feng Kexin was kind by nature, so naturally he could be more casual.
But the Xiao Qi sitting in front of him now is different. He is the world's richest man with an unprecedented 500 billion US dollars in assets. In Hong Kong, a place that worships money, this huge amount of money is enough to make anyone worship and awe.
Not only Li Jiashu, but also Yue Ling and the others respected Xiao Qi more than before.
After all, the world's richest man with assets of one to two hundred billion U.S. dollars and the world's richest man with assets of 500 billion U.S. dollars are simply two different concepts.
"The advertising fee for "Jade Fate" produced by Jiashu is very good. It has already earned a total income of about 58 million Hong Kong dollars. When the second round of advertising fees are paid, it should be able to get a total income of more than 80 million Hong Kong dollars." Yue Ling said in
Added on the side, "The cost of "Jade Love" is about 30 million. Excluding all operating costs, the profit we made from this TV series exceeded 30 million Hong Kong dollars."
"Did you give me the red envelope?" Xiao Qi asked.
"Not yet. We plan to wait until a TV series is finished before giving it. This kind of evaluation will be more accurate and will facilitate financial accounting." Yue Ling replied respectfully.
She is not afraid of Xiao Qi being angry because she knows that with Xiao Qi's mind and vision, he will definitely not interfere with the way TVB operates.
Sure enough, Xiao Qi nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
"Our plan to produce one TV series this year is a total of 12 TV series, including 4 costume dramas, 4 modern police dramas, and 4 other categories. If we can get 80 million in funds as turnover, then we can
To cope with daily expenses." After the report, Li Jiashu talked about this year's plan. "Most of our filming locations are in the mainland, and the equipment and props are also different from before. Post-production requires a lot of computer special effects processing, so
The various expenses are a bit more.”
"I don't care about the cost. As long as we make a high-quality drama, it will be worth it no matter how much it costs." Xiao Qi said, "But I want to emphasize a few points. First, when you go to the mainland to film, don't emphasize your so-called sense of superiority. Any
Don't be pretentious. Mainland and Hong Kong actors and actresses who perform part-time jobs are all treated at the same level.
Second, in the future, the TV drama industry in the mainland will flourish. TVB will gradually enter the mainland market, so you can cooperate with companies such as Xiaoniao.com, Kiwi Film and Television Group, Baoyu Entertainment, etc. to shoot some TV dramas that suit the tastes of both places.
When the TV series comes out, you can decide for yourself the specific content and control.
Third, the market is very important. We can cooperate with others to bring forth new ideas, but we cannot blindly follow the market. TVB has its own pride and its own persistence. As long as we adhere to the idea of making high-quality products and doing our own thing, then TVB can continue to be strong.
, don’t change your habits randomly just because you want to adapt to the so-called trend.”
"yes!"
Yue Ling and others' expressions changed slightly, and they quickly replied.
Li Jiashu was secretly sweating. His "Golden Marriage" had some minor frictions in the mainland. The reason was what Xiao Qi said was the sense of superiority between Hong Kong actors and employees, which led to a big difference in salary and subsidies, and frequent verbal conflicts.
.
When Xiao Qi came out like this, he immediately reminded himself secretly that this must never happen again, otherwise he would have to be dealt with.
The next person to answer was Li Zhen, another TVB TV drama producer giant.
"Same as the producer of Jiashu, we also have 12 TV series to produce this year, of which 8 are urban dramas and the remaining 4 are costume dramas of the Republic of China." Li Zhen said eloquently, "Among them, we are cooperating with Xiaoniao.com.
A TV series will also start filming in March, and I will personally supervise the production. The second female lead in the upcoming urban comedy "Slim Daddy" will be Miss Du Feixing, and I plan to let her be the heroine in this drama in March.
.As for Miss Song Jiejie, we have not been able to work together before due to schedule reasons. I have a spy drama about the Republic of China, which is quite suitable for her to be the second female lead."
"Not bad." Xiao Qi smiled, and he was also laughing in his heart, Jiejie, Jiejie, it seems that you really rarely have the life of a female lead!
"In terms of budget, I don't have much here. 50 million is enough for turnover. In addition, eastern Guangdong and western Guangdong also take good care of us. We will pay attention to keeping ourselves calm." Li Zhen added at the end, angrily.
Li Jiashu stared at her.
Xiao Qi nodded and looked at Yu Yongshan again.
"In our area, several old variety shows are still very vital and can play a leading role. But now the filming locations are in the Mainland and Southeast Asia, and the cost has increased a lot." Yu Yongshan said, "But these expenses
, can all be made up for by the terrifying income of "I Am a Singer". Now "I Am a Singer" has dominated the same time slots on Guangdong TV, tvb, tbvs and Southeast Asian Chinese TV stations. It is expected that in the group finals and finals, the advertising costs will still increase.
Keep rising!"
Since its launch on February 6, the second episode of "I Am a Singer" has been broadcast on Wednesdays and Sundays. The ratings have continued to rise, and it has also attracted enthusiastic pursuit from advertisers.
Regions have set records for advertising sponsorship spending.
Therefore, Yu Yongshan is the most confident.
Xiao Qi reminded her, "If you want to truly enter the marketing world, future variety shows must have a long-term vision and the layout must be grand. Otherwise, it will be difficult to achieve the same results as "I Am a Singer"!"
"I know." Yu Yongshan said, "Our screenwriting and planning department has been actively making some attempts. They have made reference to some popular European and American programs, and then made good programs that suit our Asian appreciation habits, and strive to
It also gets rid of dependence on Xiaoniao.com and truly allows TVB to be full of creativity and new ideas."
"It's best if this is the case." Xiao Qi nodded and said, whether it is TVB or Xiaoniao.com, he likes to see their respective successes. As for who develops better, it really doesn't matter.
"Compared to several colleagues, the efficiency of our news department is much lower, and because we have recently expanded the columns and scope of news reporting, we are still losing money." Guan Taizhao said with a smile, "But our programs are excellent.
, now the number of viewers watching our news has also increased, ranking third in the same time period in eastern Guangdong, second only to CCTV News Channel and East Guangdong Satellite TV News Channel. There is also hope of being able to watch two of them in Baodao.
I would like to thank the chairman for his full support!"
"News channels are not afraid of losing money, but you should also note that the mainland, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau are all one family. We must resolutely suppress and contain things that stir up trouble. When commenting on some social ills,
We should also try our best to report truthfully and reliably, without making false claims or talking nonsense." Xiao Qi mused, "The purpose of Ta Kung Pao in the 1920s and 1930s is very suitable for TVB."
"I understand." Guan Taizhao understood.
Xiao Qi said so, but Guan Taizhao would naturally be a little more inclined to the mainland. After all, TVB is now private property. How could he go against the boss and his wife?
"Thanks to the efforts of colleagues in various departments, TVB's operating income this year should exceed 8 billion Hong Kong dollars." Yue Ling is the person in charge of the overall situation, and she is talking about the overall situation, "But because of new programs, new TV series, etc.
Due to the increase in expenses, as well as the increase in labor and bonuses for TVB artists and staff, our expenses will increase by about 20% compared to last year, so the profits will be reduced a lot."
"Don't worry too much about the profits of the TV station, especially now that the mainland market is urgently waiting for us to explore." Xiao Qi shook his hand, "Give everyone more salary and bonuses so that everyone can produce good programs more seriously.
Then TVB will continue to develop and firmly occupy the market share. Over time, profits will naturally increase."
"yes."
Yue Ling and the other four people all breathed a sigh of relief, with smiles on their faces.
Who doesn’t want to have great power and a big salary?
Isn't it just them, the top executives, who get the most salary increases? If power is decentralized, won't they also be the ones who get the most?
As long as Xiao Qi sets the tone, their lives will be better in the future. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
