As the time entered December, the first round of the first phase of the Sino-British negotiation was finally concluded. Both sides said that this was a friendly negotiation and that phased progress had been made. [;Starting]

Although it did not disclose what progress has been made, the Hong Kong stock market, which has been falling for nearly a month, has finally stabilized. At this time, the Hang Seng Index has fallen to 676.30 points, a drop of 60%.

After the good news came out of the Sino-British negotiations, the Hong Kong stock market, which had fallen to the bottom, began to slowly recover. All stocks were bullish, and land and property prices were also rising.

But this does not mean that the Hong Kong stock market has turned for the better. In another time and space, the Sino-British negotiation has lasted for more than two years. The Hong Kong stock market has fluctuated several times in the past two years, and each time it has a big ups and downs.

Once bad news came out of the Sino-British negotiation, and the British side secretly incited public opinion, the Hong Kong stock market plummeted immediately. After a few months of decline, good news will come out after a round of talks between China and the UK, and the stock market will start to rise again. Then it fell, rose, and fell again. For more than two years, the Hang Seng Index has repeatedly fluctuated between 600 points and 1,000 points, and investors are like a roller coaster. Even the best financial experts and traders have been confused by the Hong Kong stock market in the past two years, and they have no idea at all.

If Kang Jianfei chooses to speculate in stocks, it is estimated that he will be overwhelmed by the god-like stock market changes in Hong Kong.

On December 3, the first day when the Hong Kong stock market began to pick up, it was officially launched on Phoenix Chinese Channel.

The preparations started three months ago, and some excellent players were screened out one after another, and they were given simple training. It was not until last month that the recording finally started.

It is also difficult to choose four mentors. The main reason is that Fengxing Records and Phoenix TV worked together. After the singer becomes famous, he will be signed off by Fengxing Records first.

If you invite singers from other record companies to be mentors, you are cultivating new talent for their competitors. Which big company would like to?

For example, Alan Tam is very popular in Hong Kong, and his qualifications are sufficient. It is very suitable to ask him to be a mentor. But Alan Tam is now signing with PolyGram, and the request made by PolyGram is that Alan Tam can be the "reviewer" of the show (this is what the people at PolyGram understand), but the newcomers discovered by this show, PolyGram Records can do it. Pick with pop records.

Pop Records categorically refused, saying that they would choose the rest and give them to PolyGram. In the end, the two sides could not agree and parted ways.

After some scratching by the program team. The four mentors were finally assembled, namely Zhen Ni, Xu Xiaofeng, Lin Zixiang and Su Rui.

Jenny has been out for more than ten years, and her record has broken the Hong Kong sales record. In recent years, the martial arts songs sung with Luo Wen have been very popular in Hong Kong and are enough to serve as a mentor.

Although Lin Zixiang's album sales are not too high, he is both a singer and a music producer. In terms of professionalism, he is more qualified than Jenny, and his influence in the film industry in recent years has also been large enough.

Not to mention Xu Xiaofeng, she is the most popular female singer in Hong Kong in recent years; and although Su Rui is less famous in Hong Kong, she is a diva singer in Taiwan and Nanyang.

Most importantly, none of the four are behind the record company obstruction.

Jenny formed her own Golden Note Records last year and is already the owner of a small record company. There is only a partnership but no competition with Pop Records;

Lin Zixiang's wife is the general manager of Warner Records Hong Kong. He is free to release records and receive movies, and live a very unrestrained life;

Xu Xiaofeng has already quit Poly Gold to join Kang Yi Chengyin Records. The new company is much more talkative than her old club.

As for the rest of Su Rui, she herself is the pillar of Pop Records.

...

Seeing that the show was about to start, Huang Xizhao asked McDonald's bear with some concern: "Dangxiong. What's your estimated audience rating?"

McDonald's is the program director of the TV station, not just the producer of the TV series. Although the program director is Su Dingshan, most of the time it is McDonald's who makes up his mind.

McDonald's conservatively estimated: "It should be more than 25 points."

If it is placed 20 years later, the ratings of a variety show will exceed 25 points. It was definitely a big hit show.

But now it's different. For example, the program with the highest ratings among the three TV stations in Taiwan is not a TV series, and it has been the number one in the ratings for several consecutive years.

TVB is so powerful, and the ratings have remained above 40 points all year round, while the ratings of LiTV's variety shows in the past were generally above 15 points.

Among the several new programs that Kang Jianfei has produced, this documentary program has the lowest ratings, every episode is around 7 o'clock, and it is basically abolished. Slightly high, the average viewership rate is 11:00, although it is also very wasteful, but fortunately the production fee is also super low.

Only the results are the best, the ratings even exceeded 30 points at one time, and there was a chrysanthemum that almost burst.

Now the TV station has made adjustments, compressing the broadcast time to 30 minutes, and then adding short dramas before it airs. At the same time, all the short dramas are played before and after the show, and these two shows are only broadcast on Mondays and Tuesdays when the ratings are the worst. From Wednesday to Sunday, they are all used to broadcast the previous variety shows on the TV station.

McDonald's had watched the complete first episode in advance. He felt that the show should be popular, but it was up to the audience to decide whether it was good or not.

Huang Xizhao was restless. Although the ratings of TVB were often overwhelmed after the reorganization of Phoenix TV, he was still unhappy.

In the past, when Lishi was doing the best, its market share with TVB was only 3:7. The main reason was that the ratings of the other party was too horrible.

Now the market share of Phoenix TV and TVB's ratings has increased to 4:6. It seems that the ratings have risen a lot, but the cost has also increased significantly.

Not to mention Kang Jianfei's average production cost of 20,000 yuan per episode, it would cost 600,000 yuan per episode to invite four mentors to record the show. If the ratings are below 30 points, then Phoenix TV will lose money.

Huang Xizhao estimated based on experience two days ago. Since Phoenix TV opened for a few months, although the TV series has been watched by Changhong, the most money earned by the TV station is only two or three million.

"What do you think about splitting out the entire production department of the TV station?"

Huang Xizhao suddenly remembered Kang Jianfei's words, the biggest expense of Phoenix TV is to support a large number of actors and behind-the-scenes. The production cost of a single episode of a TV series is only more than 10,000 yuan, but if the labor of all members of the crew is included, the cost of each episode is at least tens of thousands, because these people have to be paid if they don’t film.

Maybe it's time to get rid of the production department! Huang Xizhao couldn't help but think.

In an apartment building in Wanchai, 15-year-old Li Keqin dropped his pen and urged his father, "Old Bean, change to Phoenix Chinese Channel!"

Father Li yawned and said, "What for? The broadcast will start soon."

Li Keqin said anxiously: "Phoenix Channel's broadcast today!"

"What kind of sound?" Father Li asked.

"In a singing show, Xu Xiaofeng, Lin Zixiang, Jenny and Su Rui are the guests!" Li Keqin said.

"Jenny is a guest? She rarely appears on TV!" Father Li quickly switched to Phoenix TV. Their whole family moved from Macau, and Jenny is also from Macau. Father Li's favorite singer is Jenny .

Li Keqin said excitedly: "Yeah, this time, the Phoenix stage is really a big deal. Xu Xiaofeng and Jenny, it's hard to invite one, but two are actually invited together."

The father and son waited for a few minutes in anticipation, and finally officially started.

"Hello, everyone, welcome to watch the broadcast by the Rolex watch..."

The show started off as a gorgeous stage, and the crowd was full of audiences. Li Keqin and his son were stunned after just one glance. Where is this TV show? Such a big scene is like a concert.

Since the studio of Phoenix TV was too small, it went directly to the Taiping Theater to record. After prior publicity, the fame of Xu Xiaofeng and the four attracted a lot of fans. These fans bought tickets to enter the venue and became the live audience of the show.

The 600,000-1st issue of the high-value tutor invitation fee has been paid, and Phoenix TV will naturally no longer care about the reels of film. When recording the program, it directly used six cameras, which is more luxurious than most movies in Hong Kong.

Fortunately, you can earn a lot of money by selling on-site audience tickets~lightnovelpub.net~ Otherwise, Phoenix TV will not be able to recover the cost at all. As for the money for renting the Taiping Theater, it is basically a free gift. Zhang Mocai has just recruited all the people, and then replaced the iron seats on the third floor of the theater. It has not officially started business yet.

After the host finished a series of advertisement names, the four superstars Xu Xiaofeng, Zhen Ni, Lin Zixiang and Su Rui came on stage to sing in succession. Excited bursts of exclamations.

The instructor left the stage immediately after singing, and sat on four characteristic chairs to face the audience, while the host began to tell the rules of the program.

"Can you really be their disciple?" Li Keqin became impatient, regretting that he didn't sign up for the competition.

The so-called disciple is naturally a gimmick, but it does receive limited guidance from four mentors.

For those young people who love to sing, being able to catch up with Xu Xiaofeng and others is simply a soaring rhythm.

The most interesting thing is that this show only listens to the singing and does not look at the appearance, which makes the audience feel extremely novel.
