Chapter 169: Wireless Efforts (First Update!Ask for Subscription!Ask for a Monthly Pass!)
In the previous life, after entering 76 years, although Shao Yifu has repeatedly made stupid moves in Shaw Brothers movies and does not want to forge ahead, on the contrary, it is Shao Yifu who has been constantly innovating on TVB, and has worked hard to create an unrivaled TV empire.

From defeating Jiashi in one fell swoop, to the panic of the people who beat the beauty, and finally to stepping on the ATV in one breath, wireless TVB is increasingly showing its style as a king, which can be called invincible.
Of course, it is not that they have encountered difficulties along the way, such as Zheng Yutong and Lin Baixin, who were all about to win, but this time the difficulties were finally passed by wireless safely.
On the one hand, of course, it is due to luck, but on the other hand, it is inseparable from Shao Yifu's leadership.
People say that Shao Yifu gave up Shaw Brothers movies and concentrated on TVB because he was instigated by Fang Yihua.
Even in the history of wireless, it was Fang Yihua who made frequent faint moves, so several times he could obviously trample the enemy to death, but in the end he still let the enemy develop and grow - there is even a sentence that without Fang Yihua, where are so many people poached again and again?
But judging from Yin Jun's careful observation now, it was not Fang Yihua's idea at all, but Shao Yifu's own plan.
Isn't it in line with Shao Yifu's character that all the generals have betrayed so many times, and sometimes even to the point that almost all of them have been hollowed out? The kind of stingy character that he does business in his bones happens to be an important factor that has always restricted his development in all aspects!
Shao Yifu, who has been in the film industry for decades, knows the film industry very well.
After entering the TV industry more than ten years ago, and now being in charge of wireless TVB for seven or eight years, Shao Yifu is more clear about the future development of the TV industry.
He deeply knows that in the small land of Xiangjiang, there may be room for dozens of film companies, but there are only one or two TV stations at most.
In terms of the stability of the development of the industry and the influence of the industry, TVB is definitely much better than Shaw Brothers Movies.
The instability of Shaw Brothers movies is too great, and one or two movies hit the streets, and they can't turn over for a long time.
But TV stations are different, even if there are occasional failures, as long as you have a deep background, then you can quickly turn defeat into victory again.
Shao Yifu is older, and he is not so interested in that kind of extremely risky industry.
In Singapore and Malaysia, Shao Yifu has handed over all the real estate business to his sons to take care of, and the few pieces of land owned by Xiangjiang are also used by him to prepare for Shaw Brothers movies or TVB.
On the Shaw Brothers film side, the pressure has been increasing in recent years, dozens of movies are made a year, and some movies are released for only a week or ten days, so he has to use more movies to impact the quantity, so as to ensure the number of releases of Shaw Brothers Cinemas and Nanyang Cinemas.
That is, on TVB's side, directors, producers and actors are used to this way of working, and some talents have also been produced, which has made TVB's career thriving and Shao Yifu less worried.
Although at this time, Shao Yifu only had 3.25% of the wireless shares in his hands, he was not worried at all, because Li Xiaohe had already told him that in two years at most, Li Xiaohe would give him 2.66% of the shares in his hands, and even 1.16% of the Li family, he was ready to transfer it to Shao Yifu.
At that time, Shao Yifu will have more than 7% of the shares in his hands and will become the first private shareholder of wireless.
Then there is a management buyout strategy, or continue to issue additional shares, Shao Yifu holds 30% of the wireless shares, there is no problem at all.
However, Yin Jun's sudden appearance directly disrupted Shao Yifu's plan.
Jiayi TV, which was originally dying, was revitalized because of Yin Jun and competed for a lot of market share.
"Wulin Gaiden" and "Bao Qingtian", like two mountains, pressed on the head of wireless, and even annual dramas such as "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" were beaten to the point and were almost cut in half.
Then Li's actually found Yin Jun, and took a super drama that is more fierce than "Wulin Gaiden" and "Bao Qingtian" - "Chu Liuxiang"!
With an average rating of 85%, "Chu Liuxiang" has become popular from Xiangjiang to the whole of Asia, and people must talk about "Chu Liuxiang" when they talk about TV series, which has brought more than 45 million foreign port copyright income to Li, which really makes Wireless feel bloody.
Compared with "Chu Liuxiang", "Wulin Gaiden" and "Bao Qingtian", people of insight at wireless have a deeper vigilance against Jiashi's recently broadcast "Millionaire".
Because this means that Jiashi is no longer satisfied with surpassing wireless on TV, they want to wrestle with wireless on variety shows.
Someone used to say that if Jiashi and Li's want to make a difference in variety shows, even outsiders will laugh.
The absolute dominance of the average ratings of more than 80% of "Happy Tonight" is something that no other program has ever been able to do since the launch of Heung Kong TV.
Even if "Chu Liuxiang", "Bao Qingtian" and so on severely suppressed "Happy Tonight", but they are not variety shows, when it comes to variety shows, "Happy Tonight" is still the first in Xiangjiang, and the undisputed first in Xiangjiang!!
But now what Jiashi has come up with is not the kind of nonsense show, but a boutique variety show created by Yin Jun himself.
Although the ratings of "Millionaire" are only about 36%, there is no way to surpass or even suppress "Happy Tonight", but this kind of variety show has super high popularity and attracts and divides the audience very well.
According to Nielsen Data Statistics, more than 70% of people aged 30-40 with a high school degree or above are watching "Millionaire", and most of the people left for "Happy Tonight" are grandmothers and children.
That's not good.
As we all know, the people with the most purchasing power are naturally the ones with the strongest earning power.
These highly educated white-collar workers are usually the breadwinners of the family, they are willing to buy things for themselves, and they also have a strong purchasing power, so this group of people is generally the potential customer group sought by large advertisers.
According to this trend, it won't be long before those international first- and second-rate brands will find Jiashi and spend a lot of money to advertise on "Millionaire", thus fueling their arrogance even more!
In order to cope with the momentum of "Millionaire", Shao Yifu recently held 8 meetings in a row, but he couldn't come up with a good solution.
Shao Yifu has a lot of management work in wireless, but basically half a day is spent in meetings.
In addition to the countermeasures of variety shows, what is more important than it is TV drama programs.
For TVB, TV dramas are the lifeline, at least the lifeline of advertising revenue.
The heavy money to dig Zheng Yuling over the file was decided in the recent meeting.
Don't look at Zheng Yuling after she turns 50, she is scared to death, but now she is in her twenties, she is still very delicate and lovely, otherwise she will not be valued by so many film companies in the future, and she will start filming 13 TV series at the same time.
Wireless carefully studied Jiashi's current situation, their first sister Huanxue naturally can't shake it, Jiashi has raised her salary and promised to let Yin Jun make a TV series for her, so she won't leave.
Wu Weiguo, Bai Biao and others are also the same, they are very satisfied with the status quo, and they are not so cold to a stingy TV station company like wireless.
The two people who have become popular recently, Mr. Bao and Yu Zhanzhao, are also not interested in the olive branch of wireless.
Hui Tianci listened to Hui Yinghong's admonition, and before the filming of "Bao Qingtian" was finished, he would not do anything and would not agree to anything.
Not to mention Wei Xiaofan, he is Yin Jun's hardcore, even if he is given a sky-high salary, no one will take a look at him.
Many of the people who are popular in "Wulin Gaiden" are also closely related to Yin Jun, and they are counted, that is, Zheng Yuling is the most worthy of being poached with a lot of money.
First, Zheng Yuling can be regarded as the top three actresses in Jiashi, second, Tong Xiangyu's role is now deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and third, Zheng Yuling doesn't seem to be valued by Yin Jun, and has some complaints about Jiashi and Yin Jun.
In such a situation, Wireless dispatched several managers, and it took a week to finally dig Zheng Yuling and leave directly with liquidated damages.
When it is time to poach people, wireless will never be stingy with money.
In the history of the previous life, countless opponents were turned into friends by them with this money offensive.
Xiao Sheng was poached by Wireless Congli in this way, Zheng Yuling in history is also, Wan Ziliang is too, and so is Huan Xue......
Now that Zheng Yuling has been poached by Wireless, Yin Jun originally thought that they would be silent for a while, but what he didn't expect was that Wireless's execution was terrifyingly powerful.
On the day Zheng Yuling was poached, they announced that three days later, "Tong Xiangyu's first masterpiece after joining Wireless will be presented", which surprised Yin Jun.
Even if they were prepared before, it was absolutely impossible for Zheng Yuling to go to the wireless filming of the series before, so it was basically Zheng Yuling who started filming non-stop after he passed.
But what episodes can be filmed in three days?
Yin Jun expressed some skepticism.
The reason why teenagers don't feel that wireless is making a bad drama is that on the one hand, they poached Zheng Yuling at a high price, but it was not for vain, and the other reason is that this TV series is called "Rainbow", and its producer is called Li Tiansheng.
In the TV series that Yin Jun has watched for more than 40 years, he has several ways to choose TV series.
One is to see which celebrity.
The other is to see which producer is there.
It's good to talk about celebrities, everyone knows how many stars there are in Xiangjiang TVB, but in terms of producers, basically only very senior TV drama fans know.
Of course, Wang Tianlin and Xiao Sheng, the two fat and thin double Tianzun, many people know.
But in fact, in wireless, there are many people who are not inferior to them.
For example, Du Qifeng, Wei Jiahui, Zhao Zhenqiang, who later developed in the movie, Qi Qiyi, Pan Jiade, and so on, who were rising stars.
There is also a producer, who can be said to be no less qualified and capable than the fat and thin Shuangtianzun, and perhaps many people don't know his name well.
This producer is Li Tiansheng.
This 30-year-old wireless producer, joined wireless in 69, can be regarded as the opening of wireless's old courtier, all the way down steadily, in the early 70s, he began to supervise some TV series, to Liang Shuyi After they pulled a large group of people away, he naturally took the position, and gradually became one of the top gold medal producers of wireless, and then officially retired until 2016, which can be described as an absolute senior old courtier.
For example, Qi Qiyi, Luo Yongxian, Fang Junhua and other people who will support wireless in the future are all cultivated by him.
At the beginning of this year, the wireless blockbuster "Tycoon" focused on Zheng Shaoqiu, Liu Songren, Zhou Yanfa, Zhao Yazhi, Li Siqi, these top wireless pillars to star, and the producer was Li Tiansheng.
At that time, the ratings of "Tycoon" reached an average of 62%, and it was easy to kill Jiashi and Li's TV series in seconds.
Originally, in October of this year, that is, this month, Li Tiansheng would also supervise the second TV series - "Struggle", but this TV series was originally starred by Zhou Runfa and Zhao Yazhi, but because Zhou Runfa and Zhao Yazhi were poached by Li in this life, there is no trace now.
As a result, just when Zheng Yuling passed the wireless, his TV series "Rainbow", which was supposed to start in November this year, appeared in front of Yin Jun a month in advance.
"Rainbow", a TV series with 85 episodes, may not be as famous as other popular TV series in the history of wireless, but it is a very good TV series, and it occupies a place among the top ten TV series in the 70s.
The original cast of "Rainbow" is also very strong, Zheng Shaoqiu, Wang Minquan, Xie Xian, Tan Yonglin, Zheng Yuling, these are all extremely strong characters in the future, and they can all be regarded as old drama bones.
Everyone may think that Tan Yonglin is just the king of the record industry, but few people know that Tan Yonglin definitely has a set of acting, and Andy won the Golden Horse Award for actor more than 20 years later.
That is, Tan Yonglin does not have the patience to work hard in the TV and film industry, otherwise there will be no problem in producing another double actor.
In the announced cast, Zheng Shaoqiu's position is now directly replaced by a newcomer named Lu Liangwei, and none of the other roles have changed, obviously this TV series should be similar to the classics of the previous life.
It's a pity that no matter how classic "Rainbow" is, its limitations of the times still exist, and when Yin Jun uses classic dramas from the 80s to suppress it, it will not create a miracle.
But it is obvious that "Rainbow", a TV series with profound connotations by depicting the grievances and confrontations of two mothers and daughters, will definitely not lose so badly.
Li's and Jiashi's TV series, I'm afraid the ratings can't be absolutely crushed.
The key is not on this "Rainbow".
In addition to "Rainbow", TVB also announced that there will be an urban life comedy called "Men's Home" to be broadcast in November.
This is said to be a "modern version of the martial arts biography", directed by Zhao Zhenqiang, the producer of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", who was defeated by "Bao Qingtian", as his regrouping work, it will naturally not be bad.
What made Yin Jun pay a little attention was the second actor of this TV series, the cautious little man Fei Shiyu, who was played by a student at the same time as Zhou Yanfa, named Ren Dahua.
In December, a new TV series - "Pingxia Film" is also in full swing.
This classic novel by Mr. Liang Yusheng, Zhang Danfeng in it, can be said to be the most classic heroic character, in terms of national enmity and righteousness, he has to beat the more famous Chu Liuxiang, and he is stronger than Xiao Feng in "Dragon Babu".
It's just that Liang Yusheng's novels have not been remade into TV series, so Zhang Danfeng is not as famous as Xiao Feng, Zhang Wuji, and Wei Xiaobao, but in the eyes of Xiangjiang people at this time, Zhang Danfeng is definitely comparable to Chu Liuxiang.
"Ping Trace" is supervised by Wang Tianlin's eldest apprentice Du Qifeng, who has always been known for his vigorous atmosphere, and is also one of the few film directors in Hong Kong in the future.
The actor of "Ping's Tracer Film" is, of course, the first brother of wireless Liu Songren to perform.
In the original history, "The Shadow of Ping" had to be produced on ATV in 85, and then it happened to be Liu Songren to play Zhang Danfeng, which also fully shows that Liu Songren's elegant temperament is really not covered.
Basically, such a talent will only come out in 50 years.
Except for him, the only one in Xiangjiang who can have such a temperament is Zheng Shaoqiu.
In addition, there is no such talented actor who can be the protagonist from 20 to 60 years old.
Then in December, Wang Tianlin, who has completed the production of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", will make another "Dragon Babu".
Looking at Wang Tianlin's production trajectory map, Yin Jun was helpless under his head.
Legend has it that when ATV and TVB are fighting in the dark, as long as TVB's TV series fails, then they will sacrifice the tricks of Jinyong's martial arts drama.
It seems that now this trick has a tendency to be formed in advance!
Of course, Yin Jun is doubting that if he beats Old Man Wang very badly in a row, will Wang Jing, a dead fat man, directly hang up and write a few excellent TV series to help his father.
Don't think it's impossible, Wang Jing's talent in screenwriting is definitely the first in Xiangjiang.
Whether it is a few years later, or a few decades later, there are too few screenwriters who can surpass Wang Jing in commercial scripts, and when he writes commercial scripts, as long as he removes those self-righteous and likable bridges, it will really be first-class!
He really wants to devote himself to studying a few books, and it will definitely be a big hit when it is photographed.
However, even if Wireless has worked so hard, in Yin Jun's opinion, the threat is still not big.
If Wireless can produce excellent TV series all the time, then they will definitely not be at a disadvantage in the overall year.
But if they can't hold on, then the winner will be Jiashi and Li.
Yin Jun will still give Li's and Jiashi about three TV series next year.
Even if one episode is broadcast every day, it is at least enough to be broadcast for half a year, stop broadcasting seven days a week, and only broadcast five days a week, that will continue longer.
In this way, two-thirds of the year, the two major TV stations that can broadcast classic TV dramas in the 80s and 90s are inherently a great advantage.
Least the least, they won't lose.
At best, it's a three-legged situation.
Even if he takes drugs and keeps rushing upwards with chicken blood, when the time comes, Yin Jun will come up with one or two more classics, and he will still be able to maintain balance.
All in all, within two or three years, Yin Jun will not give up supporting them when Jiashi and Li's have not completely stabilized and are not enough to form a three-legged situation.
A wireless TVB that dominates the Xiangjiang TV industry is definitely not in line with Yin Jun's future plans.
The United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, South Korea, China, etc., can have several TV stations compete with each other and promote each other, and there is no reason why Xiangjiang can't.
Although the Heung Kong market is small, if the whole market is placed in Southeast Asia, or even the whole of Asia, and the three TV stations exist together, will it still feel crowded? )
