Chapter 816 Never Expected
Looking at the entire Chinese music scene, and even the entire Chinese entertainment circle, May 14, 2002 should be regarded as a special day worth remembering.
A live video edited from a band concert that ended two days ago was shown on Shuntian Satellite TV, and it won the praise of countless people!
And the final statistics came out, which surprised countless people—11.7%!
A super-high ratings for almost all variety entertainment programs in most non-special time periods - "Super Girl" came to the third session, and the ratings were only 17.2%. "Male Voice" claims to be the dominant domestic variety show, but the highest ratings are only 23.6%!
However, the live edited video of the concert broadcast by Shuntian Satellite TV has no other gimmicks or selling points, and there is only one - that is the four beauties bands!
If there will be some favorable circumstances, it is only in the past two days that this concert has been hyped very hotly on the Internet and in print media, and a considerable part of the non-professional recordings that have flowed out have also attracted the hearts of many die-hard fans. Just tickle!
But that's it. During the two hours and thirteen minutes of the concert, the ratings never fell below 10% from the beginning to the end!
Of course, for Shuntian Satellite TV, because the broadcast is a bit hasty, many advertisers go according to the package price negotiated in advance. Counting the money for purchasing the broadcast rights of the program, there is almost nothing to earn. Yes, it's probably the ratings, and the next advantage in the fight for the right to live broadcast the concert.
Negotiations were tense and intense.
Friends are friends, Shuntian Satellite TV will not be soft when it is time to bargain, let alone at this time they hold the right to broadcast the video tape!
But unfortunately, Tan Dezhang is willing to spend money.
On the night when the program aired, the three parties made an appointment to negotiate separately on Monday.
However, for the whole day, Shuncheon Satellite TV refused to raise the offer. For them, they held the contract in their hands, and would rather wait for the future concert to play the edited version. Although Hunan Satellite TV has no shortage of Money, but at this time, when it comes to programs and ratings, Shuntian Satellite TV will never be discouraged just because of a little money.
So, on to Tuesday.
After two days of repairing in Jinan, the Four Great Beauties went to Nanjing to prepare for the opening of the second leg. Negotiations here are still in the mud.
Li Qian was a little annoyed, so he told Qi Jie, don't talk about it if it doesn't work, just let Shuntian Satellite TV broadcast the edited version.
Qi Jie also had a headache, so she had no choice but to do so. However, before she had a formal showdown with the negotiators of Shuntian Satellite TV and Hunan Satellite TV, a third hand suddenly reached out.
On Tuesday morning, Huaxia TV held an internal director's office meeting. Unexpectedly, Huang Xiujuan, the powerful female director in charge of variety entertainment, suddenly proposed to buy the right to live broadcast the next three concerts of the Four Great Beauties. The deputy director, Zhao Bingyuan, was panicked and angry at that time, almost subconsciously, he directly and forcefully raised his objection—in the past half a year, everyone has rumored that he has been internally selected as the inevitable candidate for the next director, so he behaved Even stronger than before.
But Huang Xiujuan is not afraid of him!
She pointedly and forcefully pointed out that in recent years, due to personal grievances, some people in the station have had a stalemate with a company like Minghu Culture, which has an extremely important weight in today's domestic and international entertainment circles. The situation is embarrassing, not only offending people in vain, but also pushing a lot of good things to local stations, which directly led to the current situation of Huaxia TV being besieged by several powerful local stations!
From TV dramas, to star resources, to variety shows, Minghu Culture, a company that occupies an increasingly important position in the industry, unexpectedly had to give up its full cooperation with Huaxia TV Station because of the hostility of some people, and turned to Shuntian. Satellite TV, Shandong Satellite TV, HUNAN Satellite TV and other local stations work closely together.
This is obviously unreasonable!
How can personal grievances affect work? How can it affect the interests of the TV station?
For example, from Li Qian, the Four Great Beauties, to Liao Liao, He Runqing, Zhou Mo, etc., these top stars who are the hardest brands in the domestic music scene have been reluctant to go to the Spring Festival Gala for several years in a row! This is one of the important factors leading to the deteriorating competitiveness and ratings of the Spring Festival Gala!
And now, look, the live video of a concert of the Four Great Beauties was broadcast in a hurry, and it can get 11.7% ratings on Shuncheon Satellite TV, and the whole process lasts for more than two hours, never lower than 10%! For such a program, if you let go of your personal prejudices, why shouldn't Huaxia TV strive for it?
Moreover, this is also a very good opportunity. Huaxia TV always talks about reforms. If I want to say, since we want to reform, we should start with Deasing and Minghu Culture, a company that cannot be ignored in the industry, and it is definitely not a company that Huaxia TV can block. The relationship begins!
Huang Xiujuan has always been strong, especially in the one-acre three-point land of her own in variety shows. Even if the director wants to intervene, she dares to go back. In recent years, Zhao Bingyuan, who has the same strong style of work, has had a lot of quarrels , but in the past six months, she was still quite low-key. Who would have thought that at this time, she would suddenly start shooting at this time, taking advantage of a popular concert!
Caught off guard, Zhao Bingyuan was in a panic!
The director thought it made sense. In fact, the influence of Li Qian, Liao Liao, the four beauties and Minghu culture has already surpassed the concept of ordinary singers and stars, even if they usually don’t pay much attention to specific business The director of the station, who only focuses on personnel and finance, knows a lot about their influence. So, since someone brought this up, of course he wanted to know about it.
So, Huang Xiujuan, who had already prepared for a long time, officially showed her sword!
Detailed analysis, reasonable and well-founded!
Zhao Bingyuan's brows were sweating, but he couldn't find anything to refute!
Under his leadership and management over the years, Huaxia TV has made some achievements in the field of film and television. It has produced many big dramas and good dramas that ordinary people love to see. In terms of comprehensive influence and volume, it is obviously not Minghu. A company that produces a few plays a year is comparable to cultural companies.
And you have to know that he shoots and broadcasts himself, the whole industry chain!
However, the data came out, which clearly showed that in the past few years, Huaxia TV has experienced a wave of Waterloo every year-beginning this year, even before it was time, it has already experienced two waves!
And every time the ratings of Huaxia TV's TV series dropped, it was because some local satellite TV station broadcast TV series produced by Minghu Culture!
Ordinarily speaking, there is a division of labor among the directors, and it is definitely not liked by everyone to intervene and criticize other people's problems in the area. The first thing to do is to close it when you see it, brighten up the data, and then bring the topic back to the variety show!
"Ruoxuan is Coming" was first established and premiered on Huaxia TV Station. Even when it was first recorded, it borrowed a lot of resources from within Huaxia TV Station. There are always people who propose to suppress Minghu Culture, which makes the program team and Sun Ruoxuan terrified every day. In addition, Hunan Satellite TV has been poaching people hard. Now the program team of "Ruoxuan is Coming" is already considering the expiration of the contract. I won't renew my contract with Huaxia TV!
What is this concept?
"Ruoxuan is Coming" is a talk show that is loved by young and middle-aged people at the same time. Sun Ruoxuan is one of the best hosts in China today. Once "Ruoxuan is Coming" leaves China TV, it means Huaxia TV completely lost Sun Ruoxuan, and at the same time lost a strong program that could maintain 8%-10% ratings all year round!
Moreover, these years have been nominated every year, but Sun Ruoxuan has been killed by the director's office every year at the final stage - what is the difference between her and the host of the Spring Festival Gala?
She is not bad at anything, it's just that the company behind her has offended some leaders!
Zhao Bingyuan was speechless!
Yes, every year during the review of the Spring Festival Gala, he was always the one who insisted on killing Sun Ruoxuan! And he has always been hostile to Minghu Culture, Li Qian, and everyone who is closely related to Li Qian and Minghu Culture, and it can be regarded as a semi-public thing within Huaxia TV—this point, he can't argue!
If Li Qian, and his Minghu culture, are just an ordinary star with a small company, this kind of personal grievance is actually nothing. No one will seek justice for a small person. At the meeting, Zhao Bingyuan's suppression of the Minghu culture was also witnessed by everyone. No one thought that what he did was wrong or excessive-but the premise was that the other party was really a small person.
If everyone could pretend not to know about these things before, then with Liao Liao becoming an international superstar and Minghu Culture annoying Huaxia TV with a hit TV series every year, and almost every time they are very successful, When Huaxia TV was able to go down, in fact, many people felt that it was wrong and hesitated to speak.
However, in the past two years, Huang Xiujuan has been holding back!
She, the deputy director in charge of variety shows who is closer to Minghu Culture, didn't speak, and the others were naturally even more unwilling to offend Zhao Bingyuan, a powerful deputy director.
However, Huang Xiujuan didn't make a move sooner or later, at this critical moment when the director was about to retire in two or three months, she suddenly made a move!
However, with the approaching of the World Cup and the global sales of "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty", Li Qian and the four beauties bands have been tied to the World Cup. Their influence and importance have instantly become Huang Xiujuan An extremely sharp dagger in his hand!
…………
When Huang Xiujuan almost pointed directly at Zhao Bingyuan's nose for face-to-face bombardment, the speech ended. Before everyone discussed anything, the director directly spoke, and what he said made sense. Since he is optimistic about this concert and wants to broadcast it live, let's talk about it , Live!
The final word!
Moreover, no matter whether it is gradually handing over shifts or deliberately cultivating, because of the relationship between retirement soon, in the past six months, before making some decisions at the director's office meeting, the director has routinely asked He focused on asking for Zhao Bingyuan's opinion, but this time, after listening to Huang Xiujuan's report, he made a decision without even looking at Zhao Bingyuan!
Huang Xiujuan is the deputy director in charge of the station. He is the director. He is involved in the affairs of variety show entertainment. There is nothing wrong with it either!
So, when the meeting adjourned, Zhao Bingyuan's face turned pale!
Perhaps he never expected that one day, there would be a person who sings and shoots TV dramas. With his own influence, he can become a sharp weapon for opponents to attack him, and he can kill him in one fell swoop, making him almost useless. The slightest fight back!
At least when he was furious and determined to block Li Qian inside Huaxia TV, he never expected it!
But this time when he came back to his office after the meeting, he did not lose his temper. He was just in a daze alone—because after the meeting, Huang Xiujuan was left behind by the director. The right to live broadcast the concert is a bit complicated. There are Shuntian Satellite TV and Hunan Satellite TV competing for it. She can't handle it by herself, and she needs to rely on the connections of Mr. Tai Zhang!
He clearly saw and heard the smile on the director's face at that time, and the "hehe" laughter.
This is really a good ass!
…………
What Shuntian Satellite TV and Hunan Satellite TV, who were furiously fighting for the right to live broadcast, as well as the helpless Qi Jie and Li Qian, never expected was that Huaxia TV suddenly made a move!
And this shot, like Mount Tai pressing down on the top, made Shuntian Satellite TV and Hunan Satellite TV instantly scared!
The Ministry of Propaganda, the Ministry of Culture, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, the World Cup Preparatory Committee and China TV jointly issued a consultation letter to Minghu Culture—in view of the fact that the four beauties are currently holding a tour concert to cheer for the national men's football team purpose, and the song "The-Cup-of-live" by the Four Beauties has been selected by the World Cup Organizing Committee as the theme song of this World Cup, so this concert has important publicity for the success of the World Cup. Meaning, the four beauties bands are also important representatives of this World Cup and China's national image. The government should encourage and support them from all aspects. It is recommended that China TV broadcast the next three concerts live!
Zhao Yigu, Director of the Variety Department of Huaxia TV, made a phone call, and within 40 minutes, he personally committed suicide at Minghu Culture with the consultation letter.
The three parties were dumbfounded at the same time.
This is basically coming with Shang Fang's sword!
Fortunately, whether it's because Zhao Yigu and Li Qian have a good personal relationship, or Huaxia TV is really planning to ease the relationship with Minghu Culture, although the other party came with a red-letter document from the country, their attitude is not high, and they express The price is negotiable.
As a result, HUNAN Satellite TV exited directly.
Shuntian Satellite TV rushed to find a relationship, but the response from Shuntian Mansion was: Withdraw! There is nothing to argue about!
So, 20 minutes later, Minghu Culture and China TV Station made a final decision: the next three stops of the concert tour of the Four Great Beauties, Yingtianfu Station, Chengdu Station and the last stop Shuntianfu Station, will be handed over to China TV Station Do it live!
