Chapter 494 Unbalanced Li Lianjie
When Chen Qi was solving major life issues, he was not idle in Hong Kong either.
ATV.
Qiu Degen attended in person and listened to a planning meeting hosted by Li Zhuanglie. The theme was "The Voice of Asia".
When Li Zhuanglie finished introducing the rules of the program, someone immediately objected: "It's too fancy! What kind of blind audition? Do we need to make four rotating chairs? We are a TV station, not a circus." "Novelty is novelty, the audience can Can’t accept it?”
"The cost is too high, and the profit share demanded by the left is too high!
"The highlight of this show is that the contestants compete in singing skills and whether the instructor will turn around. Then I have a question. What if the contestants are all very poor and the instructor turns around and cannot convince the audience? When the audience takes a look, wow, what kind of rubbish did you choose? !Then it’s over.
Li Zhuanglie only answered the last one, saying: "So Mr. Chen's plan is that we look for contestants who can sing well in advance." That's even more puzzling. They have found good talents, can't they just sign them?
"Promote it!"
????????????
Li Zhuanglie knocked on the table and said: "You sign a contract directly, and you also have to write songs for them, make albums, and distribute videos. I don't know how long it takes for a newcomer to become a famous singer. Nowadays, when we do programs, newcomers become famous before they debut. Do you understand this? reason?"
*..』
Everyone looked at each other, unable to turn their heads.
Debut first, then package and promote, this is traditional thinking. Get traffic first, then debut, this is Internet thinking.
Qiu Degen listened for a long time, generally understood, and asked: "Zhuanglie, you said you are looking for new people in advance, where can you find them?
"First is the school. Go to any school and ask which student sings well. Everyone will definitely know it. Then go to the radio station to find those young DJs who sing well. Finally, there are those new singers who are not famous. You can find them all."
"Aren't the leftists here to sign singers? Why do they want to praise people from other companies?" someone else asked.
"There is already a company that wants to sign an agreement. For example, if a newcomer joins, we will give him exposure, he will give us topicality, and we will eliminate him after a few games, and everyone will get what they need." "How can this be done?!"
Everyone was talking about it, half of them supported it, and half of them opposed it.
Li Zhuanglie saw that Qiu Degen was also hesitating. After all, the budget for this show would be relatively high, so he said: "Mr. Qiu, let's try it internally first. The management will be the instructors, and the employees will sing. We turn our backs and turn around when we hear the ones we like." , let everyone see if it has any effect.
The point is in a resonance.
If the contestants sing well, the audience hopes that the instructor will turn around. If the instructor turns around, everyone will be happy.
Moreover, Mr. Chen suggested that the contestants’ relatives and friends be invited together to tell the contestants’ stories. How miserable the family was, how the mother was seriously ill, and how she went out to work at the age of ten. If the contestants were to be more sensational and sensational, the resonance of the audience would be stronger.
"ha!"
Qiu Degen was amused and said: "Is this program fake from beginning to end?
"The feelings are sincere, and the audience's resonance at that moment is also real!"
Qiu Degen thought about it carefully and said: "You should do an internal pilot first, find some off-site audiences, and see their real reactions. If it's not good, don't do it. This way the cost can be controlled." OKI
After everyone dispersed, Li Zhuanglie reported again: "Oriental Company and EMI have reached an agreement to set up a subsidiary called Gold Medal Records. The players they like will be signed to Gold Medal Records. But in terms of publicity, Mr. Chen does not want to promote Gold Medal Records.
, just want to promote EMI.
"Why is this?"
"He said that the new record company is not well-known and not very attractive, and he wants to invite some singers to be guest performers. He may be afraid that the reputation of the left will scare everyone away. ATV's "Water Dash" and other programs have already
I’ve been on leftist artists.
The right wing has nothing to do with the TV station.
But if there are artists who know that this show is related to the left and still participate in it, then they won’t dare to say, "Wow!"
"Ajie!"
Nan Hua Theatre, premiere of "Tai Chi 3" ends
Chen Qi is not here, Shi Nansheng is in charge of the overall situation, Tsui Hark, Li Lianlian, Ji Chunhua and others are standing on the stage waving. Below is an enthusiastic audience. Those who can follow the "Tai Chi" trilogy to the end are considered die-hard movie fans.
In fact, Li Lianlian is in a state of being secretly ostracized in Hong Kong.
The bosses know that he is great, and the directors and colleagues also know that he is great, but the entire public opinion environment about him, that is, Hong Kong's inexplicable sense of superiority over the mainland, is the same for Li Zhi, and the same is true for Carina Lau.
Carina Lau has made great efforts to break away from the label of "Bei Gu".
It’s different now. The leftists are running their own film culture. Whether it’s Li Lianlian or other mainland actors, it’s much better than in the original time and space. “Thank you, thank you all!
"Which audience member has a question...Okay, that one!"
During the interactive session, a female fan stood up and asked loudly: "Jie Zai, you are much better at acting in costume dramas. What will you film next?"
"We are preparing a modern action film, the specific content cannot be disclosed yet."
"Wow, is it a modern drama?" "I'm really looking forward to it!"
A male audience member stood up and said, "Can you make a film with Cheng Long? I really want to see you guys fight!" "I think so too. Brother Cheng Long is very powerful, but it depends on the company's specific arrangements."
This male audience member seemed to be on the right side and was deliberately looking for trouble. He then added: "Then have you ever thought about changing companies? Jiahe is great!" "This..."
Li Lianjie didn't know how to answer, but Shi Nansheng stopped him first: "Okay, we're here!"
She organized the creators to leave, got in the car, and immediately said: "Ajie, if you encounter this kind of problem in the future, just throw it to me. Don't hesitate on stage. Once you hesitate, you will be caught. The Hong Kong media will dare to do anything.
Written."
"I see!"
"Overseas enthusiasm for the "Tai Chi" series has also faded. It only sold for 3 million US dollars. You are just about to transform now. Come on!" "Yeah!"
Li Lianjie just nodded, looking very tired, and leaned on his seat to take a nap. Shi Nansheng looked at him and suddenly asked: "Ajie, how did you sign your contract?" "I don't have a formal contract."
"Why is there no contract?"
"My working relationship is still with the martial arts team. Brother Qi lent me for 8 years, and I am a seconded employee." "What about after 8 years?"
"I have been with Dongfang Company for 81 years, and there are still 6 years left. In 6 years, I will be 26 years old. It is also the age to retire from the martial arts team, so I will retire." "It's so complicated... I can't understand you!"
Shi Nansheng asked and understood, but shook his head and looked confused.
Li Lianjie smiled and continued to close his eyes to rest, thinking to himself, there are still 6 years left!
He admitted that Chen Qi was very kind to him, and he received a bonus of 30,000 yuan from the three "Tai Chi" movies. However, the longer he stayed in Hong Kong, the more he yearned for his status and life. Due to the constraints of the system, he did not dare to do anything now. I just look forward to retiring from the martial arts team and regaining my freedom.
"I don't know how much I will be paid for the next movie "Fast Delivery". I heard that Andy Lau could get 200,000 for "The Frog Prince"." He didn't know whether it was true or not, but it was rumored that Andy Lau's salary for "The Frog Prince" had increased to 200,000.
I am afraid of comparison in everything.
Li Lianjie's exhausting filming scene was not as good as Liu Dehua's coolness, and he must have felt unbalanced. But he was a little afraid of Chen Qi and did not dare to ask directly, so he had to hold it in and cheer himself up. He would definitely tell him when Qi came back. One word.
