The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang

v2 Chapter 639: The performance and development of Xiang

TVB is the focus of Chu Huan's public opinion in Southeast Asia. Chu Huan will definitely not let him go on the road of another time and space, so even though it is just the beginning stage of TVB, for Chu Huan, there is already a need for TVB's future. The development is looking for a broader road.

   Finding a way to let TVB enter the home market in advance is one of the ways, and the second way is to let him have absolute influence in the entire Southeast Asia in advance.

   And this is not just a classic TV series that can do it.

  Classic TV series are a sharp weapon for TVB to enter other Southeast Asian countries, but they cannot be the only one.

  So Chu Huan came up with the idea of ​​starting satellite TV.

  However, the current technology is not mature, so we still have to let this idea go and wait for the technology to mature.

"If Zheng Shaoqi wants to leave, just leave. The relationship between him and Feifei, and the relationship between Feifei and Shao Yifu are not comparable to ours. However, after Zheng Shaoqi leaves, the company should immediately introduce an artist who can replace us. Only in this way can we The loss is minimized!"

  After thinking about these things, Chu Huan preached to Liang Risi.

  Liang Risi smiled slightly and said: "Fortunately, TVB has recruited a lot of people from Li's TV before. Looking at it this way, we actually made money."

  The people recruited from Li's TV before were basically recruited by Liang Risi. Those people who want to gain a firm foothold in TVB have naturally become Liang Risi's confidantes.

   "By the way, Yifu Shao joined Li's TV, how is Huang Xizhao?"

Chu Huan asked Liang Risi that Huang Xizhao was the general manager of Li's TV before. According to Shao Yifu's personality, Huang Xizhao would not be allowed to hold an important position in Li's TV again. I will definitely look for more things that are beneficial to me in this matter.

  Liang Risi said: "Huang Xizhao has sold his shares in Li's TV to Yifu Shao, and has resigned from the position of general manager of Li's TV, and is now at home!"

  Chu Huan pondered for a while, he wanted to recruit Huang Xizhao to TVB.

Huang Xizhao, as an absolute giant in the Xiangjiang TV field, is still very capable. If it weren't for the fact that Li's TV's internal faction struggles were too fierce, and Li's TV's head office, Li's voice just regarded Li's TV as a ATM, Li's TV is definitely capable of competing with TVB under the leadership of Huang Xizhao.

   It’s just that Liang Risi has just smoothed out TVB’s internal affairs. If Huang Xizhao is introduced to TVB at this time, it will only bring greater factional struggles to TVB.

Chu Huan has never cared about factional struggles. After all, only struggles can make progress. Why did TVB manage to rule the entire Xiangjiang TV field in the era of Shao Yifu? One of the main reasons is that Shao Yifu condoned the factions within TVB. struggle.

At that time, the four major factions in TVB were simply you singing and I came on stage. This kind of factional struggle really made TVB good dramas in that period come out frequently. Factional struggles have evolved into mutual strife within them.

  The internal friction was too serious, which directly led to TVB's lack of competitiveness and the absence of good TV dramas.

  So Chu Huan allows factional struggles within TVB, but this competition must be benign and unanimous to the outside world. If they do not have this kind of self-awareness, then the leader of this faction can be regarded as the leader in TVB.

  In addition, this kind of factional struggle cannot affect Liang Risi's control of TVB, otherwise it will affect Jiaku's control of TVB.

  Huang Xizhao's influence in Xiangjiang TV is too great. If he is invited to TVB, then there will be a confrontation with Liang Risi, which is very inconsistent with Chu Huan's vision for TVB.

  However, Chu Huan still feels a little regretful if such talents are lost.

  After thinking for a while, Chu Huan said to Fang Jianhui: "Try to contact Huang Xizhao and see if he is willing to work in Black and White Media?"

  Since Huang Xizhao is not suitable to go to TVB, then come to Black and White Media, such a veteran in the industry, it must be useful to stay around.

  Fang Jianhui nodded and said, "Okay!"

  Chu Huan continued to preach to Liang Risi: "TVB will open four new channels in the next three years!"

  Everyone at the scene was stunned when they heard this. No one thought that Chu Huan would open four new channels for TVB. This actually meant adding four new TV stations in Xiangjiang to compete with TVB for ratings.

   More importantly, if you want to do this, you must obtain the approval of the Hong Kong government.

   "Is there a problem?" Chu Huan asked Liang Risi.

Liang Risi did not deny it, but said: "There are indeed some problems. If four new channels are added, then the approval of the Xiangjiang Film and Television Department is required. Adding four new channels at the same time means a four-fold increase in investment. , I am worried that Taili will lose sight of the other!"

Regarding Liang Risi's question, Chu Huan nodded slightly and said: "Although we had a bad quarrel with the Xiangjiang Film and Television Department before, the matter has passed, and we still have to apply. It turns out that the director of the Xiangjiang Film and Television Department has resigned." Is it? Now that there is a new director, it is time to re-establish a relationship with the other party.

   After all, they still need our support! "

The former director of the Xiangjiang Film and Television Department, because he wanted to introduce the film classification system and the Xiangjiang Film Festival, his reputation has completely fallen to the ground, and this matter also needs someone to take the blame, so the other party was also dismissed The position has been replaced, and now a new person has been replaced.

  Although he is also a ghost, he knows a lot about people and the world.

  The most important thing is that as long as the opponent wants to secure a firm position in this position, they will inevitably need the support of black and white media, so Chu Huan thinks that it is relatively easy to apply this policy to the opponent.

   As for the extra cost of adding a TV station, Chu Huan didn't care about it. After all, the cost was too high, and the acceptable advertising revenue was also more.

   And this is in preparation for TVB to be upgraded to satellite TV in the future.

   "As for the money expenditure, don't worry, Black and White Media will not ask you about the profit status in the past two years!"

  Chu Huan preached to Liang Risi.

   Liang Risi saw that Chu Huan had already made a decision, so he stopped talking about difficulties, but asked Chu Huan, "What kind of new channels does the chairman want to add?"

Chu Huan said: "A movie channel is used to broadcast the company's movies and animations, a sports channel is used to broadcast important sports events, such as the Olympics, World Cup, Premier League, Serie A and other competitive events, and a music channel. The music channel can set up a ranking program. When singers from Xiangjiang or other regions release new albums, they can hit the rankings on this music channel and announce the results of the rankings every week. A TV drama channel, this TV drama channel is more In order to serve the movie universe launched by the company in the future, some of the characters in the movie can choose to be launched in the form of TV dramas to increase their influence and reach a status that can match the popularity of the movie characters!"

   This is the decision Chu Huan made after thinking for a long time.

  As a TV station, TVB’s main income actually comes from two sources. The first type of income is advertising revenue, which is completely linked to TVB’s ratings. If the ratings are high, the advertising revenue can naturally be high.

  For example, the advertising space in the middle of "Happy Tonight" is the most expensive advertising time for TVB. After all, the vast majority of Xiangjiang people will watch this program.

  Then there is the copyright sale fee for TV dramas and variety shows.

  Now TVB's TV dramas and variety shows are liked by the whole Southeast Asia, TVB will sell them to TV stations in these regions to increase their own income.

  However, in Chu Huan's view, this kind of income is still a bit too thin, and Chu Huan's idea is to bring more income to TVB.

  Because in Chu Huan's vision, these four newly added channels can choose to charge in the future, just like the video apps of later generations, they will be played on a monthly subscription basis.

   In this way, it can not only guarantee the advantage of TVB's own free channel, but also bring more choices to more viewers, and can also increase more income for TVB.

  The most important thing is that when TVB becomes a satellite TV station and the live coverage expands to the whole of Southeast Asia, TVB can have greater influence.

  Of course, whether to wait until the end to charge or not depends on the development at that time.

   After all, TV viewers in Xiangjiang have just gotten used to the programs of free TV stations. If they charge suddenly, it is likely to cause dissatisfaction among TV viewers in Xiangjiang.

   It is precisely because of such considerations that Chu Huan did not raise the possibility of charging at this meeting.

  Liang Risi said, "Okay, after returning to Xiangjiang, I will hold a high-level meeting in Taiwan to discuss this matter in detail. At the same time, I will also communicate with Xiangjiang Film and Television Department about adding new channels."

  Chu Huan nodded slightly.

  Because Black and White Media just acquired TVB at the end of last year, so now there is no need to think about asking Liang Risi about the company's income.

  Fang Jianhui will report next.

  For this year’s black-and-white images, the most important task in Xiangjiang is actually to implement the film universe proposed by Chu Huan.

"Before I came, Huang Boming Mecca had already written the script of "Best Partner". According to Director Liu's report, there should be some details that need to be dealt with, so this time Huang Boming also followed Director Liu. After leaving Hawaii, the two will refine the content of the script during the filming of "Happy Ghost".

  Fang Jianhui preached to Chu Huan.

"However, there are some problems here, that is, the Xiangjiang Film Universe. Although we have this concept in our minds, there are still many problems in the actual reality. How many characters appear, this involves the lack of a core story line in the entire movie universe, if only such a movie is added one by one, it is very likely to cause confusion in the entire movie universe story in the end."

  Chu Huan listened carefully to Fang Jianhui's question.

  This is indeed a big question. The reason why Marvel’s movie universe can be successful is because there are comics behind it. They can randomly intercept a big event in the comics as the story line of the entire universe in the early days.

  In addition, the characters in Marvel have also been written, and the relationship between them has also been formed.

  These are all very good for the Marvel Universe to set the story of each character individually under a large framework.

  But the Xiangjiang Movie Universe that Chu Huan is referring to now is different.

  For those who participated in this project, this universe is actually empty, except for the "Best Partner" mentioned by Chu Huan, that is, the five lucky stars mentioned in it, they have a concept.

  But apart from these two character lines, others have no better understanding of the story line of this movie universe.

   Without a large stock market framework, it is actually very difficult to create this movie universe!

   "The character setting can wait until we return to Xiangjiang. I will personally go to the black and white video to provide you with a few character settings. As for the story frame"

It is naturally impossible for the current Xiangjiang filmmakers to know what movies in Xiangjiang will become popular later, but Chu Huan knows. Although he can't write a movie script, Chu Huan still knows the classic characters of the entire Xiangjiang movie, and this is already The mission framework of the movie universe has been laid.

   As for the story frame

   "A suitable occupation can be sought to expand this framework, and in my opinion, the best choice for this occupation is poor."

  Chu Huan thought about it for a while and analyzed in this way: "Most of Xiangjiang's movies are inseparable from the category of police and gangster movies, whether it is comedy, action, or even ghost movies, this is the case. Police stations can appear."

  If a movie universe has a fixed occupation, it will actually unfold very well.

   Let’s compare it with the Marvel Universe. No matter who they are, Iron Man, Thor, Captain North America, Black Widow, etc., they all have a unified name, the Avengers!

  This kind of sci-fi film orientation is naturally acceptable, but for the current Xiangjiang movies, such an organization is obviously in line with common sense.

   Then the police station is a good place to show them.

  In "Best Partner", the bald man and the man-in-law are police officers. In "Five Lucky Stars", although the five lucky stars are not police officers, they are regarded as non-staff members of the police station.

   Not to mention Chen Jiaju in "Police Story", Zhou Xingxing in "Play Back To School", and Ajie in "A Hero".

  Even if there is no police background, there are very few movies that can leave the background of the police station.

  So with the police station as the background and the functions of the various police officers in the police station as the background, a complete movie universe can be completely incubated.

  Fang Jianhui listened to Chu Huan's description, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and finally he said excitedly: "I understand. After I return to Xiangjiang, I will hold a film universe preparatory team to discuss this matter."

   One mouth on the top, broken legs on the bottom!

  Since Chu Huan and Fang Jianhui talked about building a movie universe, Fang Jianhui has already set up a movie universe preparatory team in black and white images. What they have to do is actually the question that Fang Jianhui and Chu Huan raised now.

   It’s just that they are inexperienced, and they still can’t find a clue!

  Chu Huan nodded in satisfaction, and said, "I will attend your meeting in person at that time!"

   "Yes!" Fang Jianhui said happily.

  After this matter was finished, Fang Jianhui reported to Chu Huan about the construction of theaters in Europe.

  Nowadays, although black and white video has already bought the largest cinema company in Europe, it is not without problems, on the contrary, there are many problems.

First of all, there is the issue of film sources. Although there are films from Xiangjiang and Vertex Pictures that are joining European theaters one after another, this is only a temporary solution, and the most important thing is to have local European films enter this theater. Only in this way can the problem of film sources required by this theater chain be truly solved.

   "The company is already in contact with major film companies in Europe, but the other party sees that we are foreigners, so they want to squeeze the company's release share more!"

   Raptors crossing the river will always encounter the problem of local snakes, and the black and white theaters and the European theaters are no exception.

  For such a problem, Chu Huan can only choose a temporary compromise.

   "This shows that we still don't have enough theaters in European theaters. If we can occupy an absolute market share, then those film production companies will not be so arrogant!"

  The relationship between supply and demand can change with the different strengths of the two parties.

  From the perspective of the entire film industry, after the film production company produces the film, it needs to be released in theaters, because only in this way can they really make a profit.

However, the black and white theaters are outsiders, and they are not well-known in the European film industry. In addition, the environment of each European country is different. A complete promotion and release channel has been established throughout Europe.

   "Robert, the manager in charge of the European theater chain, suggested that we can only accept the sharing requirements of these companies at this stage, and we have three things to do now!"

  Fang Jianhui pointed to the ghost Robert next to him, and said to Chu Huan: "Chairman, I am going to let Robert report to you!"

  Chu Huan also looked at Robert next to Fang Jianhui, and said, "Let's listen."

Robert, who is in his thirties, turned out to be the general manager of the European cinema chain. After Black and White Cinema acquired the other company, Fang Jianhui chatted with Robert and found that the other party was a very good talent, so he let him continue to be in charge of the European cinema. There's a theater problem.

   This is the second time for Robert to meet Chu Huan. The first time he saw Chu Huan was when he was officially appointed.

At this time, when Chu Huan asked himself to speak, he immediately said: "My idea is number one. We should establish a complete publicity company that can radiate to the whole of Europe. In fact, these European film companies themselves still hope to be able to We have cooperated with us, after all, we now have the largest number of theaters in the entire European cinema company.

  As long as we have a complete publicity channel, it will increase the voice of our company.

Second, I think our company should also increase cooperation with Hong Kong and Hollywood, especially Hollywood film production companies. They all belong to the Western camp and have the same cultural attributes, which can better fill our company’s gap. source issue.

The most important reason why we are constrained by the European film production companies is that they have decided that we don’t have enough film sources to support the operation of our entire theater chain, so they will open their mouths to seek bigger ones. into.

   But as long as we have our own film sources, their suppression will obviously be untenable.

Thirdly, I think the company should support more European film production companies in the future. It is best to establish one or two film companies. Only in this way can we prepare sufficient film sources. Come to face the suppression of other film companies! "

   After finishing speaking, Robert looked at Chu Huan seriously. This was the first time he offered his opinion in front of Chu Huan, and he was inevitably a little nervous.

  When he saw a smile on Chu Huan's face, his nervous mood instantly calmed down a lot.

   "Yes, these three points are very comprehensive. I have no objections and can be implemented!"

  Chu Huan nodded in satisfaction. In Chu Huan's opinion, this idea is already very good, so Chu Huan has nothing to add.

  Of course, because last year Black & White Image used all the cash in its hands to acquire European theaters and build its own theaters in European countries.

  So last year, the black and white images did not bring any cash income for the company to deploy!

  Chu Huan doesn't have any opinion on this, and the current investment is also to prepare for better harvest in the future.

  In fact, the development of European theater chains can be said to be very important to both black and white media and Hollywood’s Vertex Pictures.

  If the European theater chain finally forms a complete scale, then Xiangjiang Films can better enter the European market, and make great contributions to Chu Huan's ultimate goal of cultural output!

  Secondly, it can also alleviate Kelly’s problems. At that time, Vertex Pictures will have a complete set of European distribution channels. In that case, the suppression of Vertex Pictures by Hollywood Jews will be greatly reduced.

  In the end, Xiangjiang, Europe's Black and White Cinemas, and North America's Lowe's Cinemas will form a solid triangular strategy, and Chu Huan will have the world's largest film distribution channel in his hands.

   At that time, even Hollywood Jews need to take a good look at the weight of this.

   In the end, should we all join together to make money, or should we fight to the death together?

  Chu Huan believes that in the end, interests must be on top!

  So in the final statistics, the entire black and white media group only left a profit of 95 million Hong Kong dollars last year!

   This income is definitely not able to show the influence of black and white media, but there is no way to let the other party still develop!

  After Fang Jianhui finished his speech, Yasuo Kamakura of Fantasy Comics Club reported on the situation of Fantasy Comics Club in Xiangjiang and Southeast Asia.

  Compared to Jiahu Textile and Black and White Media, Fantasy Comics Club doesn’t have so many problems. Not only in Xiangjiang, Southeast Asia, but actually in the whole world, Fantasy Comics is a thriving existence.

  It can be said that in any country or region in the world, fantasy comics clubs have an absolute monopoly in this field.

  It has been said in later generations that where there are Chinese, there are Jin Yong’s novels.

  So now this sentence is applied to the fantasy comics club, that is, where there are human beings, there are fantasy comics!

  Xiangjiang, as the base of fantasy comics in Southeast Asia, is naturally even more so.

  In fact, after the fantasy comics came out, both Xiangjiang and Southeast Asian countries have launched other comics. Faced with this problem, there are two policies for fantasy comics.

   Those that are valuable, those that can be included, and those that cannot be included, then find a way to destroy them, but at the same time, fantasy comics will let those comics with mediocre sales or bad comics appear at will.

  The purpose of doing this is actually to let these comics continue to expand the market.

  After all, if there are only fantasy comics in this world, readers will not be able to see who is better.

  As for its youth toys, it is naturally the same.

   "All of this is due to the contribution of the chairman's Toys R Us, which was prepared in advance. Without Toys R Us, our sales and profits would not be so high!"

  Bafuo Kamakura communicated with Chu Huan in Cantonese at this time.

   After so many years in Xiangjiang, Yasuo Kamakura has been able to master Cantonese proficiently.

  When Youth Toys R Us just opened for business, Chu Huan used all the profits of the company to pave the way for their global sales network.

  Although no one said anything about Chu Huan's decision at the time, they were still a little apprehensive in their hearts, thinking that Chu Huan's huge investment might cause bad results.

   But now it seems that such worries do not exist at all, because of the global sales network of Youth Toys R Us.

All peripheral toys under the name of Fantasia Comics can be sold globally in the first time, and at the same time, the sales share and other issues are eliminated. It can be said that this plan alone has laid the foundation for the company for the next thirty years .

  Before online shopping appeared, Chu Huan knew that his sales network would become the largest toy sales network in the world.

  At the same time, with the establishment of Youth Toys R Us, the toys of other toy companies around the world only want to open their own sales on a global scale.

   Then you can't do without Youth Toys R Us!

   This is the benefit of mastering the sales channel!

  It is not an exaggeration to say that in today's global toy market, Youth Toys R Us has the absolute right to speak.

Moreover, Chu Huan is not worried about the impact of online shopping in the future. Chu Huan can plan in advance. When online sales become mainstream, all the shops in Youth Toys R Us will be an invisible and powerful a large fortune!

   In addition, Youth Toys R Us also took part in the sales of comics.

   Kill three birds with one stone.
