In the Qingshuiwan Building in Jinglanshu, Run Run Shaw is drinking tea in the house where he has lived for decades. The tea is the very precious Longjing tea, which fills the hall with a light fragrance. However, Run Run Shaw is not drinking tea like he used to.
The tea was so pleasant, but on the contrary, there was a hint of worry on his face.
If you are familiar with Run Run Shaw, you will definitely be very surprised when you see his expression at this time. Because as the top decision-maker of TVB, the aircraft carrier of the television industry, Run Run Shaw has been in the television industry for decades and treats any opponent calmly.
Calm and never afraid of any difficulties or setbacks.
Fang Yihua came over and held his back, "What's the matter? I'm still thinking about the ATV incident. Forget it, those are all ungrateful people who haven't been raised well, and it won't do any good to let them stay with us."
She was talking about Li Jiashu's previous move to Asia Television with a group of artists and staff. TVB has hundreds of artists, and adding the staff, the TV station has thousands of employees. However, among these employees,
Many of them can be recruited from outside at any time, right?
How important people are, such as those extras who have no fixed roles. Although Li Jiashu took away less than a hundred people, many of them were first- and second-tier artists and employees with strong working ability who were important to TVB, so they
It is said that it has poached one-fifth of Wireless's human resources.
Run Run Shaw raised his gaunt and thin hand and said in an old voice: "I'm not worried about this. If those artists leave, others can be cultivated. Those behind-the-scenes production staff can also be recruited from outside.
Come in, I can even invite a few more teachers from the artist training class from the United States. However, what I am worried about is that after the change of ownership of ATV this time, I am afraid that it will not be as easy to deal with as before."
"Even if it's difficult to deal with, we don't need to be afraid." Fang Yihua said: "Now in Hong Kong, more than half of the people are stable viewers of our TVB. However, ATV has changed owners several times and changed its policies again and again, so it cannot be done.
Climatic.”
But Run Run Shaw slowly shook his head, "No, I have an intuition this time. ATV will become more difficult to deal with than ever before, and our wireless network will also encounter unprecedented challenges. Although ATV has not yet announced the plans to the public,
What a plan, but I know that once they take action, their offensive will be as fierce as a stormy sea!"
He looked up at the ceiling, exhaled and said: "Back then, Lin Boxin bought ATV and said he wanted to compete with me in the TV industry, but I have never been afraid. That guy Lin Boxin is very talented in other business fields.
, but he doesn’t have that kind of strength to fight with me in this TV world. However, this time is different. Although I don’t know who the boss of ‘Polaris’ is yet, I feel that this will be something I have never experienced in my life.
The most powerful opponent I have ever encountered!"
Hearing Run Run Shaw's words, Fang Yihua was a little surprised. Even though Run Run Shaw has reached an advanced age, his ambition has not diminished over the years. He is a ferocious lion that no one dares to despise. But at this moment, Fang Yihua saw him
She finally showed an old look on her body. And, for some reason, she thought of the young man who came to her door and angrily scolded Run Run Shaw.
"Are you thinking about that Zhou Hao?" Run Run Shaw and Fang Yihua have been married for many years, and you can tell what she is thinking at a glance. "Actually, I am also guessing that if ATV changes ownership this time, he will be the one behind it.
"
Fang Yihua frowned and said: "No way, how old is he, how can he have so much funds."
Run Run Shaw said: "Whether it's him or not, we must be prepared. I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle between ATV and us next."
Fang Yihua nodded, but at this moment, there was a knock on the door, and then the servant's voice came, "Master, Madam, Mr. Qian came to see you and said he has something to discuss with you."
"It should be that guy Qian Guowei." Fang Yihua said to Shao Yifu, then turned to the servant and said: "Let him come in."
Then I saw a fat man walking into the hall from the outside, bowing respectfully to Run Run Shao and Fang Yihua, "Uncle Six, Aunt Six."
Run Run Shaw didn't say anything, but Fang Yihua nodded to him, "This year's Miss Hong Kong was well done, thank you for your hard work."
Qian Guowei is one of TVB's gold medal producers, and he is best at variety shows. For example, Miss Hong Kong, "Prizekeeper" and other variety shows that are very popular among Hong Kong people are all produced by him.
"Guowei, what's the matter with your visit this time?" Run Run Shaw said, "Isn't it because you took a female artist to a dinner party again and was photographed by the paparazzi?" His voice was calm, but Qian Guowei on the other side said
It feels like a bit of silence.
"No, no, I have something serious to discuss with Uncle Six and Aunt Six this time." Qian Guowei said quickly.
Fang Yihua patted Run Run Shaw on the shoulder, "Just spare him. If he hadn't made those bosses so happy, how could our variety show have so many sponsors?" Then she turned to Qian Guowei, "Okay.
Okay, tell me if you have anything to do."
"Yes, yes." Qian Guowei said immediately: "That's right, someone brought me a planning document today. It's a planning document for a TV game show called "Millionaire"." Then he put "Hundreds" on it.
The aspects and production process of "Millionaire" were briefly explained to Run Run Shaw and Fang Yihua, and then the planning document was handed over to Fang Yihua.
After Qian Guowei finished speaking, Run Run Shaw and Fang Yihua looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes, because they both saw the brilliance of "The Millionaire". Fang Yihua quickly took the planning document and took it seriously
After reading it and browsing it briefly, she couldn't help but like it.
He said, "Okay! This planning is really well done! If it can be made into a program and broadcasted, it will definitely arouse a frenzy. Moreover, aren't some people always criticizing our 'prize gatekeepers' for being vulgar and meaningless? This set of "100"
Once "Millionaire" is aired, I wonder who would dare to say that our program is vulgar."
Run Run Shao also raised his head and looked at Qian Guowei, "Guowei, who made this plan? Is it someone from our company?" He immediately realized that the person who could make this plan must be a rare talent. If it was
Employees in your own company must be given high positions, and if they are from outside, they must be hired with high salaries.
Qian Guowei looked at Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua, paying attention to their expressions. Fang Yihua said impatiently: "What are you still doing? Tell me quickly, who made this plan?"
"This planning document was not made by people from our company." Qian Guowei hesitated for a moment and said: "Actually, this "Millionaire" is a TV program that ATV is currently preparing closely. Who will make this plan
The person who gave me the planning document was a manager who was fired by ATV. He said that ATV was unkind to him, so he didn’t need to be loyal to ATV.”
When they heard that "Millionaire" was a program being produced by Asia Television, Run Run Shaw and Fang Yihua were shocked. They have been in the TV industry for so many years, and their eyesight is naturally very good. Just seeing this plan was already
It is foreseeable that once "Millionaire" is broadcast, it will definitely set off a craze in Hong Kong.
Run Run Shaw said solemnly: "The people who took over ATV this time are really not easy to come up with such a program. But..." He looked at Qian Guowei's face, "Since ATV is already producing this program
Well, why did that person give us the plan?"
"Maybe it allows us to be prepared." Fang Yihua said: "After knowing that they are producing this "Millionaire", we have to think of a countermeasure. Otherwise, we can put this year's Taiwanese celebration drama on their broadcast
Will it be aired when "Millionaire" comes out and compete with them for ratings?"
Run Run Shaw waved his hand, "It's useless, I'm afraid it will ruin our Taiwanese celebration drama."
But I heard Qian Guowei say at this time: "Uncle Six, Aunt Six, the person who gave me the plan said that it seems that Asia Television has not applied for copyright protection from any department for this series of "Millionaire". They may
I didn’t expect that this plan would be leaked, so I wasn’t in a hurry to apply.”
Run Run Shao's expression changed and he stared at Qian Guowei closely, "Are you serious? Is this news true?"
"This... I can't guarantee it." Qian Guowei said: "But doesn't our company have a department that deals with customs and the International Intellectual Property Protection Center? Uncle Liu and Aunt Six, ask them to go to the Customs and the International Intellectual Property Protection Center.
Wouldn’t it be okay to just ask?”
"That's right." Run Run Shaw said: "Yi Hua, ask them to ask if ATV has applied for a copyright patent for this series of "Millionaire"?"
Run Run Shaw knows that shopping malls are like battlefields, and there is no morality at all. So he decided that if Asia Television really did not apply for copyright protection for "The Millionaire", then he could take advantage of their loopholes and use
"Millionaire" is his own, and Run Run Shaw has no psychological burden at all about this.
And Fang Yihua also said: "I'd better handle it myself. The less people know about this matter, the better."
Run Run Shaw nodded when he heard this. After all, if Asia Television knew about this matter, they would immediately apply for a copyright patent, and then it would be determined who would win.
"This is a good opportunity to attack ATV." Run Run Shaw said: "Whether the person behind it is Zhou Hao or not, I have to let him know that I, Run Run Shaw, are not easy to deal with!"
