In this way, Li Changsheng initially broke through the barrier between the two TV stations in Xiangjiang!
Since then, TVB and ATV will no longer engage in vicious competition, and the high-quality products they create can mutually promote each other.
It's just that the talent system adopted by Asia Television is high salary, high competition and high pressure. Anyone who doesn't get in and doesn't perform well will be out with three strikes.
What does strikeout mean? "Strikeout" means that a batter goes out without three strikes.
In other words, for directors and actors, there are only three chances. If the ratings of the TV series and the box office of the movie are not satisfactory three times, they will be eliminated and replaced by stronger newcomers.
Some actors or directors in the mainland live a good life. They don't even have to be responsible for the ratings of TV dramas and movie box office.
But sometimes a similar situation occurs, like Yang Mi’s colleague in Jiayun Media, Li Xirui, in a certain year, unfortunately, she managed to act in three dramas as the heroine, at about the same time , the results of the broadcast did not have a splash, and then Jiaxing Media no longer gave her resources.
Hollywood is basically such a system. Even Nigras Cage, who was a very powerful actor back then, had a few films that did not make a profit at the box office, and his resources were immediately downgraded.
Only bad movies can be made.
But such a system still has some disadvantages. For example, Zhou Runfa in Time and Space had acted in several films and the box office was not good. Afterwards, what will become popular!
However, there are only a handful of acting gods like Zhou Guifa in the Chinese entertainment industry. Most of them can tell after a few films that they have no talent. Total waste of resources.
Therefore, gradually, all the top talents that Asia TV can retain are top-notch talents, while almost all those retained by TVB are the low-line talents eliminated by Asia TV.
However, due to the demand for Cantonese by Hong Kong locals, TVB has been relatively prosperous.
In addition, Li Changsheng acquired the Golden Princess Cinemas.
It turns out that there is a new art city film company under the time-space golden princess.
But the Space-Time New Art City Film Company was cut off by Li Changsheng first, and the Golden Princess only had theaters, so it was very easy to acquire.
And it turned out that in that time and space in 1979, Ma Jia, Bing Tian, and Huang Baiming jointly founded the Struggle Film Company; Struggle, which only made one film a year after its establishment, was incorporated by the owner of the Golden Princess Cinema Line, Lei Juekun, and joined Became a subsidiary of Golden Princess and changed its name to Xinyicheng.
New Art City was formally established (renamed) in September 1980, and announced its closure in 1990. It has been a glorious decade.
Golden Princess includes Golden Princess Film Production Co., Ltd. and New Art City Films, etc., and has an exclusive theater chain, with 18 theaters including Lisheng, Roxy, Kaisheng, Xinsheng, and Jinhongji.
The family of the boss, Lei Juekun, is also the major shareholder of the real estate company Jiulong Jianye and the shareholder of Jiulong Bus. They are really rich.
Obviously, in addition to more exposure, the film and theater business is still inferior to traditional family businesses such as real estate and transportation in terms of making money.
However, Radium's scale in the Xiangjiang real estate circle is average, and bus transportation also has a development ceiling under the control of the government.
Therefore, Lei Juekun, a wealthy second generation who is determined to forge ahead, still has great enthusiasm for the film industry.
In the 1970s, Golden Harvest developed under the nose of Shaw Brothers. In addition to being lucky to get box office superstars such as Li Xiaolong and Xu Guanwen, more importantly, they got the support of theaters.
At that time, there were 16 movie theaters under Shaw Brothers, and 19 movie theaters under Golden Harvest Cinemas; Lei Juekun bought the old brand Lisheng Cinemas and changed its name to Golden Princess Cinemas. It had 18 movie theaters in total, more than half of which were owned , Xiaoban is a franchisee, but its strength can already compete with the two giants of Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest.
It's just that there are only theaters without movies, as if there is pot but no rice, and it is embarrassing and passive to kneel to the film company to make money.
If you have your own film company in your hands, coupled with the support of theaters, you will have enough pot and rice, and you can be self-sufficient.
The established giant Shaw Brothers is a representative of self-produced and self-marketed films. The films produced by their own company can basically meet the annual screenings of their own theaters.
However, starting a film company from scratch is not only time-consuming, laborious and expensive, but also has a high professional threshold. Acquiring a ready-made company and investing in it is not only free of entry barriers, but also fast and efficient; so the boss of Radium found the struggling Ma Jia, Bingtian, and Huang Baiming, threw a check, and turned them into the three giants of New Art City.
At that time, the shareholding structure of New Art City was: Stone Sky and Huang Baiming accounted for 19% and 9% respectively; of the remaining 72%, Golden Princess accounted for 51% and was the largest shareholder, and Makka was the second largest shareholder with 49%. The Big Three in the city account for more than 60% of the shares.
The basic mode of cooperation is that Golden Princess invests, New Art City produces, and finally divides according to the agreed ratio; Among them, Golden Princess has the income of the theater chain, and also takes into account the distribution, and finally has the net profit after deducting the theater chain share and distribution costs. The share of the income is always the biggest one.
Under such a cooperation model, Golden Princess gave New Art City the greatest financial support, and also gave them the greatest creative space and complete creative freedom.
That is to say, the Golden Princess only cares about investing money to get the proceeds, what, how to shoot, and who to invite in New Art City, the Golden Princess almost ignores it, and just makes money.
Therefore, in the early days of New Art City, with the full cooperation of the Seven Monsters of New Art City, the "Best Partner" series became an instant hit and won the country. The first three films won three annual box office champions and broke the record twice Xiangjiang's box office record, momentum is in full swing.
In this time and space, Ji Changsheng's method is to make a strong acquisition.
If you don't buy it, let the 14k people make trouble, so that your theater chain can't continue to operate.
Of course, the price given in the end was quite reasonable.
After the acquisition, the other party has no complaints.
The more theaters Li Changsheng masters, the more films produced by Golden Harvest Films and New Arts City Films can be released online, avoiding waste of resources.
Li Changsheng's colleagues who are doing these things are also paying close attention to the "Miss Asia" selection and the "Voice of Asia" audition!
Because the scope of Miss Asia has been expanded this time, 15-year-old girls can also participate, and he saw several familiar faces.
These girls are generally young in age, and they are all arrogant about their beauty. They want to see if they have any hope of winning a prize of 1 million Hong Kong dollars.
At such a young age, they are not as capable as those mature big sisters.
It is very unlikely that these people will win the title of Miss Hong Kong, but they will get the chance to sign a contract with Asian TV.
Because they are all stars who have been tested in the original time and space.
One is the most classic Huang Rong Weng Meiling.
Once in the audition for the role of Huang Rong, Weng Meiling stood out from thousands of people and was selected by the golden old man, which shows how she is different...
She is as smart and beautiful as the incarnation of Huang Rong, with full of personality at the corners of her brows and eyes, and the aura of heaven and earth in one body.
Although Weng Meiling's life is short, it has been affirmed by everyone. Everyone loves Weng Meiling.
I love her cuteness, her innocence, and her intelligence.
Many viewers said that when it comes to beauty, Weng Meiling is not particularly outstanding.
However, there is always a spirituality in her that people can't express in words.
Weng Meiling is not the kind of flawless and amazing beauty, but her frown, smile, anger and anger are natural, sincere and natural.
Often love goes deep, teaching people both love and pity, and love goes deep, making people linger in dreams.
Li Changsheng is already planning to recruit Wang Tianlin from TVB, and discover Huang Rihua at the same time, and start filming "Legend of the Condor Heroes" next year (Li Changsheng's temperament is not suitable to play Guo Jing)!
There is also Xie Yan, although she is not particularly popular, and most of the characters she plays are the second female lead, but she has a perfect figure, an oval face, and she is very temperamental in ancient costumes, and her gestures are quite a bit Classic charm. She is beautiful and pure, her temperament is refined, she is full of fairy spirit, her eyes are very pure, like an elf, she pleases the audience.
As the champion of Miss Xiangjiang in 1985, although Xie Yan is not as famous as Jiaxin, Yong Yi and others who came after her, Xie Yan is not inferior to them in terms of beauty.
Playing the role of Su Ying in "Peerless Twins", she vividly interprets Su Ying's icy, smart, lively, charming, well-behaved and slightly willful personality, which is very impressive.
color.
There is also Zeng Huaqian, who gained the reputation of "a flower in the class" when she was in the training class, and was called a "beautiful angel" by the students at the same time.
She has a classic temperament, every word and deed, every frown and smile, has a special charm, has the sincerity of Meiling, the coldness of Yulian, and the beauty of Manyu, which can be described as elegant and refined.
Since his debut, he has won the love of countless people with his sweet and lovely smile.
Zeng Huaqian's first impression is elegant and beautiful. Her refined appearance and temperament completely conform to the aesthetic point of view of the oriental people.
Elegant and refined, she is like a perfect handicraft carved from ice and jade.
The soft light in her big watery eyes seems to absorb people's souls, like the bright moonlight in front of the bed, it spreads all over the place.
I really don't understand what Liang Chaowei thinks, why he chooses the less beautiful Liu Jialing.
There is also Zeng Huaqian's rival in love, Li Meixian who was once known as "Wireless's number one beauty in ancient costume".
She is straightforward, optimistic and cheerful, with a pure and healthy image. He has a unique temperament, elegant and elegant, with a hint of melancholy hidden in his brows, and his ancient costume is beautiful and moving, fresh and refined.
With a tall stature and beautiful features, she has a fresh temperament and looks suitable for both ancient and modern times. She is charming and charming in women's clothing, but cute and naive in men's clothing.
Her beautiful and sweet image makes her a model of female beauty, and her inherent cold but not arrogant, gorgeous but not vulgar temperament subverts people's perception of a dignified goddess in ancient costumes.
Her interpretation of "Peerless Twins", in which Tie Xinlan is intelligent and tender, has become an unforgettable and eternal classic for the audience.
In this time and space, Liang Chaowei has not made his debut yet.
Even if he made his debut, he would not have any chance to step on a few more boats.
Not to mention Zeng and Li, he may not even be able to get Liu Jialing.
Because these are all in Li Changsheng's bag!.
