Dreams of the Fragrant River

: Three hundred and ten [talking about proportional business]

Huang Xizhao took the CCTV delegation to the recording studio, prop room and other places, and explained to them: "The production of TV dramas in Hong Kong is different from other places. [;First release] TV dramas produced in Taiwan are often produced by the director once. After the **** filming and the production of the entire TV series are completed, they will be broadcast on TV stations. Because Taiwan’s TV stations are all party-run, even if the ratings are not good, they can still receive financial subsidies.”

An elderly man in his fifties in the delegation said: "Last year, when Lao Wang filmed the film, it was broadcast after all the filming."

Huang Xizhao said: "The production of TV dramas in Hong Kong is different. Our TV stations are privately owned and must be responsible for their own profits and losses, so the commercialization operation is very heavy. Like the United States, most TV dramas in Hong Kong are shot and broadcast at the same time. If the audience likes it, they can make the TV series longer, if the ratings are too low, they will consider reducing the series, and even increase or decrease the number of scenes of a certain role according to the audience’s preferences.”

Deputy TV station Changjiang Dongming nodded and said to the other members of the delegation: "This is to let the people test the pros and cons of a TV series. Our TV station also serves the people. The TV production methods of Hong Kong compatriots are worth learning from. ."

Huang Xizhao just pretended he didn't hear what Jiang Dongming said, and continued: "In order to save time and cost, Hong Kong TV dramas are divided into at least two director groups when shooting, and at most, there are even five or six director groups shooting at the same time. "

An old man named Huang Yihe in the delegation asked: "It's difficult to manage five or six director groups to film a movie at the same time, right?"

Huang Xizhao said with a smile: "So when filming TV dramas in Hong Kong, the producer has the final say, because each director's style and shooting speed are different, and the producer needs to check the overall situation. It is between the director groups, the main actors need to run back and forth. , the arrangement of the shooting scenes also needs to be well coordinated by the producer.”

Jiang Dongming had also been a director before, and he was stunned when he heard that, "Then how can the producer be so busy?"

Huang Xizhao said: "Some supervisors often act as a group of directors by themselves. After a day of filming, they have to work overtime to sort out the footage that was filmed that day, and cut the film together with the editor and the editor. Basically, they can sleep three or four hours a day. Due to the heavy workload, the producer basically has to rest for a period of time after filming a TV series, otherwise the body will not be able to support it at all."

Jiang Dongming nodded in approval and said, "It seems that my colleagues in Hong Kong are still very dedicated."

While explaining, Huang Xizhao led the delegation to visit. When I came to a studio, I was stopped by a staff member at the door and said, "Mr. Huang, Mr. Kang took a makeup photo inside."

Huang Xizhao said with a smile: "Behind me is a delegation from the mainland. It's not a problem to go in and visit."

Before Jiang Dongming came to Hong Kong, he had heard of Kang Jianfei's name. He asked, "Mr. Huang. Is Mr. Kang inside Mr. Kang Jianfei's boss?"

"It's him." Huang Xizhao lifted the curtain of the studio, pushed open the door, and said, "Everyone, come in and have a look."

Jiang Dongming had just stepped in half a foot when he heard someone scolding inside: "Grass. The light has been adjusted, and whoever opens the door at this time, let me go out!"

Fortunately, none of the comrades from the mainland did not understand Cantonese, and they just thought that someone was throwing a tantrum.

Seeing Kang Jianfei looking at him angrily, Huang Xizhao said embarrassedly, "Mr. Kang, these are the inspectors from Beijing/Beijing behind me."

The anger on Kang Jianfei's face suddenly changed to a smile, he walked over with a haha, held Jiang Dongming's hand enthusiastically and said, "Welcome comrades from the mainland, I'm just about to show you around when I'm done. I've already made reservations for the evening. Seat. I will take care of everyone at the Kowloon Hotel."

"We have accepted Mr. Kang's wishes, but the communists don't take every single stitch from the masses, so don't spend any money." Jiang Dongming politely declined. Although the mainland officials at this time also had all kinds of tricks, they still paid great attention to their appearance when they went out to investigate. Otherwise, the consequences will be serious once an accident occurs.

Kang Jianfei shook hands with the other members of the delegation and joked: "Comrades from the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office often call me a compatriot from Hong Kong. Since I am a compatriot, what else is there to do? It is an expression of my heart to invite my compatriots to have a meal. Master, don't refuse."

Jiang Dongming was thinking about the cost of this trip, thinking that he should pay for the meal after the meal. If he refuses, it will hurt the feelings of Hong Kong compatriots. He nodded and smiled: "Mr. Kang is so kind, then I will respect it. Better to die."

"It's easy to say, easy to say," Kang Jianfei laughed, "comrades, please wait for a while, I'll call it a day after taking this set of makeup photos."

Jiang Dongming smiled and said, "Please do."

Kang Jianfei continued to instruct the photographer to take pictures, while the members of the delegation watched with great interest.

Huang Yihe walked over to Jiang Dongming and said in a low voice, "Director, I just watched the variety show on Phoenix TV, and I have an idea in mind."

Jiang Dongming asked, "What's your idea? Could it be that you want CCTV to do this kind of show too?"

"Not now," Huang Yihe explained, "I mean, during the Chinese New Year, we will also hold a party in the stage. We invite representatives of various ethnic minorities, advanced individuals, performing artists, and some leaders to come and show them through TV. The way of the program, celebrate the New Year with the people of the whole country."

"You want to hold a New Year's party?" Jiang Dongming pondered, "It's not impossible, I'll go back and discuss it with Lao Zhao. But this is a very important matter, and it must be approved by the superior."

Huang Yihe thought for a while, and then added: "It's best to invite compatriots from Hong Kong and Taiwan to the party, and come to a New Year's Eve reunion."

"That's a good idea!" Jiang Dongming's eyes lit up. If the program involves the reunion of the three places across the Taiwan Strait, it will become a political task. It is a great achievement to do it well.

Huang Yihe said with a smile: "For the candidates of Hong Kong compatriots, I think it is better to invite two stars from Phoenix TV."

The two old men began to discuss the Spring Festival Gala. Kang Jianfei quickly finished taking the makeup photos and continued to visit with the delegation.

After turning the TV station around for a while, Huang Xizhao thought about selling films in the mainland again, and dragged the delegation to the screening room to watch the episodes.

Huang Xizhao directly asked people to take out the previous Lishi's proud work from the film library. Wan Ziying, Wei Qiuhua, Chen Xiuwen and Zhang Guorong all starred in this TV series.

After only a few minutes of watching it, Jiang Dongming threw aside the brief introduction of the TV series in his hand, shook his head and said, "Let's replace it with another one. I can't broadcast this one on CCTV even if I buy it back."

Huang Xizhao didn't know the reason, and was about to ask a question, but heard Kang Jianfei whisper: "The gang play is too heavy, change it."

Huang Xizhao nodded. Ask someone to remove it from the library.

The reason why Kang Jianfei went directly is because in another time and space, this TV series caused a sensation when it was broadcast in the mainland. However, it was shown on Canton/Dongfang local stations. I don't know if this TV series can go directly to CCTV.

Due to the butterfly effect brought by Kang Jianfei, Liang Xiaolong joined DreamWorks early, and the role of Chen Zhen was played by Zhang Senmin. Zhang Senmin, Kang Jianfei, had never heard of him. He and Huang Yuanshen, who played Huo Yuanjia, left the TV station early and went outside to shoot a movie.

As for the heroine of the show, Michelle, she just returned to Phoenix TV from TVB last month, and she signed a five-year contract.

In later generations, some Michelle fans wanted to raise their idols. What did Michelle say that she was free to play between TVB and ATV back then. That's pure nonsense.

Looking at Michelle's resume, it's clear. At first she had been filming in Jiashi, but after Jiashi went out of business, she went to TVB. After only one scene was filmed on TVB, it was dug up by Lishi, and it was filmed until the end of Lishi era. I switched to tvb again. Michelle had been filming on TVB for less than a year, and was soon signed by ATV, which was controlled by Qiu Degen, and one signing was a five-year contract.

This kind of experience can only say that Michelle is very popular. The two TV stations are vying for important people, but it is absolutely impossible for them to freely pick up dramas between the two TV stations.

If Michelle made a movie on Phoenix TV and it became popular, and the next movie went to TVB, would Kang Jianfei, the boss, be happy? Not only Kang Jianfei was unhappy, but probably the most depressing one was the program director McDonald's Bear, who could directly block Michelle. What if she has a famous godfather?

Michelle only returned to Phoenix TV last week, which made Kang Jianfei very embarrassed, because Huang Xizhao and McDonald's both suggested that Michelle be played as Wu Tingfang.

Kang Jianfei was persuaded by the two for a while, and finally changed his mind. The original actor Mao Shunyun was replaced. Because both in terms of fame and acting skills, Michelle is more suitable for the role of Wu Tingfang.

The members of the CCTV delegation watched it attentively. Although the play was in Cantonese, the members of the delegation watched it with relish by reading the subtitles.

After watching one episode, Jiang Dongming nodded his head with admiration: "This TV series is good, and the theme is patriotism, which is very educational."

Another member of the delegation said: "The theme song is also very good. It has been sleeping for a hundred years, and the people of the country are gradually waking up. The lyrics are very well written."

Kang Jianfei interjected in a timely manner: "The dialogue needs to be dubbed in Mandarin, but this theme song can be retained. CCTV will record a Mandarin song by itself, along with it, one for the opening song and one for the ending song."

"I don't know how to sell this TV series?" Jiang Dongming nodded and asked the price directly.

Kang Jianfei and Huang Xizhao looked at each other, and the former said, "Each episode is 2,000 yuan, a total of 42 episodes, totaling 84,000 yuan."

"The price is very suitable." Jiang Dongming nodded, he was very satisfied with the price. Last year, CCTV itself cost hundreds of thousands of dollars for the film, while the TV series purchased from Japan basically cost more than 100,000 yuan.

Kang Jianfei smiled and said, "But I have a condition."

Jiang Dongming was a little surprised and asked, "What conditions?"

Kang Jianfei said: "After the broadcast of the CCTV, you can't resell copies to local stations in the mainland at will."

At this time, piracy is flying all over Hong Kong, and the mainland has no concept of copyright at all. Even more than a decade later, many regular theaters in mainland China are showing pirated copies—the distribution companies have insufficient copies, and Chinese theaters have privately carved copies.

Jiang Dongming asked rather strangely: "Why? Why can't we resell the things we bought?"

Kang Jianfei explained: "This is a copyright issue, a common law in the world."

Jiang Dongming didn't know if he was pretending to be confused, and said: "The TV stations in the mainland are all national and belong to the same nature. We don't resell it, we can send it directly."

Kang Jianfei almost spat out a mouthful of old blood when he heard it, so he held back his breath and said, "Otherwise, CCTV will have to re-record the dubbing in Mandarin. All the Mandarin versions are shared by Phoenix TV and CCTV. If CCTV wants to be in the mainland If you resell it, Phoenix TV will charge 500 yuan per episode, and the rest of the money will go to CCTV.”

Jiang Dongming also took into account the image of CCTV~www.wuxiaspot.com~ nodded and said, "This is a good idea."

After the matter was settled, Huang Xizhao and Kang Jianfei were very happy. As long as it can be sold into the mainland market, this one can be given away for free.

Think about the dozens of provinces in the mainland, so many TV stations, how much a TV drama sold in the past.

Of course, city-level TV stations will definitely broadcast pirated copies, but provincial-level TV stations can supervise them. More than 30 provincial stations in the mainland, even if only half of the TV stations buy it, they only charge 500 yuan per episode, and Phoenix TV station also has 300,000 yuan in the account, which is equivalent to more than 1 million Hong Kong dollars at the market price—the black market price is less than 500,000.

This is still an old drama, and the price of the new drama will definitely be more expensive.
