Chapter 762 I’d Better Ask Mr. Jun for Help!

Now in mid-January, Kylin TV’s tour has arrived in Thailand.

Thai TV dramas and music have always been dominated by Xiangjiang. Kylin TV’s TV dramas in recent years have often become popular dramas in Thailand. Therefore, these actors are very well-known there, and tens of thousands of people are attracted to them at the airport. Being surrounded, the following performances were naturally extremely popular.

There are only two places left: Malaysia and Singapore. This time the tour is all over and everyone is back to Hong Kong, just in time for the Spring Festival vacation.

Xiangjiang is also very lively at this time, and the representative one is the "Rookie Singing Contest".

The program, which is divided into six episodes, has now been broadcast for two episodes, and the rhythm is still at the semi-final level.

The Xiangjiang audience, who had never seen such a live TV singing talent show, were very interested in watching it for a while. They speculated about which singer would win the championship in the end. There were endless discussions in the streets and alleys, making the atmosphere very lively.

Among them, the one who attracted the most attention was a female singer from the Liyuan Performance Stage.

Her name is Mei Yanfang.

From the moment she appeared on the stage, Mei Yanfang made people mesmerized by her majestic typhoon, slightly deep but pleasant voice, and her free breathing techniques.

It was just in the semi-finals, and several judges were praising Mei Yanfang's singing skills and appearance.

In fact, it is Mei Yanfang who is discussed the most.

Yin Jun also watched the show. It still had dim tones, simple stage, simple band, rough backup dancers... There is no way to compare these with what they were 30 years later.

In this way, everyone watched it with great interest, and even newspapers, TV stations, weekly magazines, etc. participated.

"There is no doubt that this is the most sincere singing competition in Hong Kong!" - "Hong Kong Wen Wei Po"

"TVB has brought us another surprise, creating a new program category. For them, it is as simple as eating and drinking!" - "Oriental Daily"

"After the strong launch of Kylin TV, TVB did not sit still and wait for death. We still exerted our spirit of daring to be the first in the world! I believe that such an excellent program as "The Hong Kong Rookie Singing Contest" will make Kylin TV work hard to catch up!" ——"Guest Comments from Wireless TVB"

"That's great. I just love watching games like this. It's so fresh, so tense, and so exciting!"

"I don't know if my Amei can sing all the way! Why should such a program be broadcast once a week? It would be great to broadcast it every day!"

"In comparison, I like Huang Ruling better! I hope she goes further!"

"Ouyang Dexun is better! How handsome he is! And he looks like everyone in Typhoon!"

"Tch, don't you have eyes? If we, Ah Mei, don't win this year, I will go sit in front of TVB!"

"Fart! If Lingling doesn't win the championship, then that's shady!"

"..."

Looking at the atmosphere that was obviously caused by wireless, Yin Jun just smiled.

How did a saying from later generations come about?

No comparison, no harm!

Only when you watch "Hong Kong Idol" will you know what a truly modern idol variety show is!

The United States is really dragging its feet. The top-notch equipment that had been ordered long ago was delayed for a certain period of time because of the holidays.

Although they will reduce some expenses accordingly as compensation, if the time is not right, Yin Jun will definitely take them to court without hesitation.

You charged me so much money, but the construction period is not guaranteed, so what do you need me for?

Don't think that Yin Jun is harsh. If you see the harsh attitude of later generations of foreigners towards small and medium-sized enterprises in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Dongguan, and Nanwan, you will definitely feel that Yin Jun's thoughts are too normal.

This year's Grammy is held on February 7th and has now entered the tense final judging stage.

Many singers who are expected to win awards frequently participate in various programs, concerts, etc., in order to maximize their influence and recognition.

But Deng Lijun is different. Apart from going to the recording studio to practice every day, she basically stays at home every day and watches TV with the old lady.

Well, watch the TV series written by my little lover Lang.

Her attitude made Polygram dumbfounded.

But Teresa Teng's record contract with them only has one year left, and there is no agreement to force the album to be released. In order to fear that this golden hen that can lay eggs will slip away, they can only follow Teresa Teng.

In the absence of Teresa Deng's cooperation, they could only do more publicity for Teresa Deng themselves.

After all, if the two awards of Best Pop Singer and Song of the Year really fall on Teresa Teng as the outside world says, it will be a huge improvement to PolyGram’s reputation!

This is no mere fantasy.

In the music scene of 1980, was there any song that was more popular than "Hand in Hand" and more in line with the national sentiment of Americans?

Not only did PolyGram think it was a sure win, many media outlets in the United States basically regarded Teresa Teng as the only winner of these two awards. As for the other singers and songs, there was not much hope at all.

It's not that they are not good enough, but that the opponents they encounter are too strong.

Yin Jun thought so too.

By that time, waiting for the queen sister to return with the Grammy Award honors, "Hong Kong Idol" has already beaten "Rookie Singing Contest" before it starts airing, saving Yin Jun how much advertising expenses!

Thinking of the sad faces of Mr. Shao Liu and Fang Yihua in the future, Yin Jun felt a little happy.

I ignored them during this period. As a result, TVB seemed to be grasping at straws and tried its best to criticize and belittle Kylin TV. This meant that Kylin TV's TV series were better, and its variety shows were far behind them.

Such provocations were repeated several times, and even Yin Jun felt helpless, let alone the people at Kylin TV.

If Yin Jun hadn't strictly ordered them not to start a war of words, maybe Liang Shuyi would have gone into battle in person right away and cursed Fang Hao. The main reason why she resigned from TVB was because of her deep conflict with Fang Yihua.

Speaking of which, Shao Liuye and Fang Yihua's vision is still a bit narrow. Although Qiu Degen is stingy, he trusts Yin Jun. As long as Kirin TV makes achievements, he can follow suit.

While he was thinking about how long it would take MacLehose to deal with his subordinates, there was a knock on the door. The secretary opened the door and said at the door: "Master Jun, Mr. Wu Siyuan is here."

"Invite him in."

Yin Jun gathered his thoughts and stood up to welcome Wu Siyuan's arrival.

When he saw Wu Siyuan, Yin Jun was startled, "Brother Yuan, what's wrong with you?"

Compared with the Wu Siyuan I met before, he is now at least 20 pounds lighter, and there is a sense of decadence on his face and body that cannot be shaken off.

"What else can I do? I've been selling my house recently to pay off my debts after being thrown into the street." Wu Siyuan sat on the sofa. He and Yin Jun were friends of the poor and the lowly, but there wasn't much distinction between them. "Have mercy on me." The three houses I just bought last year were sold off to pay off the debt. If the price can rise for two more years, maybe it can double!"

Yin Jun laughed when he heard this.

Nowadays, almost no one in Xiangjiang doesn’t want to speculate in real estate. The only difference is that rich people buy houses, while poor people can only think about it.

This is the case for the people who make movies. Most of their assets are invested in real estate and the stock market, and the rest are squandered.

Wu Siyuan has passed his impetuous years, so he invested all the profits in the past two years into real estate, and he still made a lot of money. However, this time he lost millions, so he could only sell a few houses to pay off his debts.

With the current trend of houses in Xiangjiang, he is indeed at a loss.

"Then what should you do? Don't make movies anymore? Are you going to speculate in real estate?" Yin Jun asked.

"No, how is this possible?" Wu Siyuan quickly waved his hand, "I'm still so young, and now I have to live that boring apartment life. I have to die of boredom? Besides, I also have career ambitions."

"Let me guess, you must have wanted a script again this time, right?" Yin Jun said with a smile.

"Yes!" Wu Siyuan nodded and said, "Now I can only hope that Mr. Jun will give me a chance. It's expensive, but it also has its advantages!"

He is really enlightened now. People say that Yin Jun's scripts are expensive. Why haven't you seen any movies made from Yin Jun's scripts making money?

This time, Wu Siyuan found several screenwriters and got the script finished with 200,000 yuan. He also asked a university professor to polish it. What do you think of the result?

It was a complete mess!

He was too embarrassed to go out and meet people!

Therefore, Wu Siyuan determined that he would only discover newcomers and directors, and then use Yin Jun's scripts for large-scale productions with more than 1 million yuan.

"Brother Yuan, if in the past, I wrote the script and you bought the script, this would be normal." Yin Jun considered, "But have you ever considered that if you can't find a good screenwriter yourself, you won't be able to support a good one?" There is no future for the film company. After all, I have my own film company, and many friends want to get my scripts. I can't give you a lot. One a year is enough!"

Wu Siyuan had considered this before coming, but after hearing what Yin Jun said, he became more at ease again.

Yin Jun meant that he was still willing to give the script, but not much.

Of course he didn't know that Yin Jun wouldn't have given him any more scripts if it wasn't for the fact that he would be very successful in running the UME cinema chain in the Mainland in the future.

It's not that Yin Jun is ruthless, but as a filmmaker who only relies on himself and cannot contribute to Hong Kong movies, it is better to retire and give the opportunity to those who are more worthy of help!

"I'm also very confused. They are obviously pretty good and have a good reputation. Plus, a university literature professor actually made a romance film like this. I'm almost mad!" Wu Siyuan sighed! He said, "I really don't know why there is such a big gap when comparing people. Why can all of your scripts, Mr. Jun, be so good?"

"Because my scripts come from real life, I have a thorough understanding of the audience's preferences, and I am willing to write what the audience likes to see." Yin Jun said, "People like them, when they close the door and think about it, they feel that they can grasp the whole situation. The world. Behind closed doors is the word created for them!"

Yin Jun's words were very rude, but Wu Siyuan, who had been deceived by the screenwriters, nodded repeatedly, feeling that what Yin Jun said couldn't be more correct.

"Let's do this." Yin Jun pondered for a while, "I will give you a script. This is a series. I will write the scripts for the first two episodes, and you can find a screenwriter to write the rest. This time, you have to ask Be careful to identify the scripts. I hope that within three years, you will not ask me for scripts again."

"Two episodes?"

Wu Siyuan was refreshed and happy. Not to mention the future, life in the past two years has been easy.

"A series of films does not mean that we rush to finish filming in one year and leave after making money." Yin Jun reminded him, "According to my idea, it is best to release one film every two years, so as to maximize the audience's interest." Movie-watching interest. Of course, if you want to release one movie a year, you can do it, but you can’t do it faster. This will consume their movie-watching enthusiasm. There is no way to create a movie for you that can shoot five or six episodes and at least be popular. A series from seven or eight years.”

"I understand!" Wu Siyuan chuckled, "You are so interesting, Mr. Jun! I have nothing to say. Being able to make this series a success is my greatest reward for you! This time, I will do it seriously and let you Look at those bastards who are badmouthing me!!"

Naturally, he was right to be happy. The movie Yin Jun prepared for him was called "Dragon Tiger Boys".

This comedy movie, which has achieved both box office and word-of-mouth success in the United States, was very suitable for the tastes of Hong Kong people in its previous life.

And if Wu Siyuan can make "Dragon Tiger Boys" to Yin Jun's satisfaction, then Yin Jun will not be stingy, and another very interesting Hong Kong IP movie that is similar to it can also be handed over to him Do it.

This film is even more familiar to Hong Kong people and even mainlanders.

its name is

"Playing Back to School".

This hilarious classic movie by Stephen Chow has been ranked among the top 11 box-office films in Hong Kong for three consecutive years. It also set a box-office record in Hong Kong in the first year, which shows its popularity.

However, "The Dragon Back to School" also has the bad habit of Xiangjiang movies focusing on the beginning rather than the end. There is no overall plan at all. It shoots wherever it comes to mind. It lacks context and interesting continuity of the story, so the box office is higher than the episode after episode. In the end, the third episode only took over 20 million at the box office, so it was doomed to have to call it a day.

After all, at that time, the salaries of Zhou Xingchi and Zhang Yan alone accounted for hundreds of millions and more than 20 million in box office. Even if Shanghai and overseas box office shares were added, they could not make much money.

Wu Siyuan can make the "Dragon and Tiger Boys" series reflect each other and the plots are consistent, which proves that he has the ability to make this type of series of movies. When the time comes, let him give him "Fighting Back to School" If you do, you can just discuss with him about doing cinema chain matters in the Mainland.

With such great benefits, Wu Siyuan was naturally reluctant to give up. Then Yin Jun's general manager of the mainland theater chain was found!
