Hong Kong Entertainment: Kung Fu Superstar 1981

Chapter 133 Quote
TVB?
TVB!

Good guy, is this poaching for yourself?

Looking at Wu Yu, who claimed to be the director of the variety show department in front of him, Zhang Yang leaned on the counter and said with a half-smile: "Mr. Wu, you should know that I am cooperating with ATV now. Now you ask me to cooperate with you. How can we cooperate? Could it be called Do I play a hero?"

Zhang Yang's joke made Wu Yu also laugh.

Indeed, as Zhang Yang joked, thanks to the popularity of martial arts novels in recent years, TVB has also filmed a large number of martial arts dramas, and these dramas have also become hot hits in Hong Kong Island. Zheng Shaoqiu also Thanks to this, he became the Qiuguan that everyone is familiar with.

Regarding these, as a member of TVB, Wu Yu is particularly proud.

"If Mr. Zhang is interested, I believe the people in the drama department will also be willing to invite Mr. Zhang to participate in the show. However, I am a member of the variety show department, and I am here to invite Mr. Zhang. Naturally, it is for the variety show."

Wu Yu paused, then took a step forward, lowered his voice and said: "If possible, I hope that the follow-up of the program "Fighting Peak" can be moved to our TVB, or if you have any other new ideas, I Also welcome.”

Zhang Yang raised his eyebrows and did not rush to agree. Instead, he said softly: "Mr. Wu, if you just come to me for a program, then I don't think we need to talk more. Do you understand what I mean? "

Although "Fighting Peak" is currently performing very well, Zhang Yang knows very well that in the final analysis, this program still serves the league, and most of the players in the program will eventually enter the mixed martial arts arena and bring the audience to the stage. Their eyes were also attracted to the competition.

In other words, no matter how popular the show is.

Whether it is ATV or Zhang Yang, they all know that in the end, these are all serving the event.

If Wu Yu wants to pull Zhang Yang away, he must be able to see clearly at this point.

Fortunately, Wu Yu is not a fool.

After coming up with the plan to poach Zhang Yang, he took advantage of the Spring Festival break to study Zhang Yang carefully.

So he knew very well how much Zhang Yang had high expectations for the mixed martial arts league, so when Zhang Yang finished speaking, he immediately said impatiently: "Mr. Zhang, I know what you mean very well. If you are willing, you can We can also move the league’s weekly championship games to our wireless TV station for screening.”

"I heard you are very sincere." Zhang Yang paused, then smiled, "But there are some things that just talking about is useless. So, let me tell you the number first. The championship game at the end of the month, the monthly broadcast fee 200 million. As for the program, for a program like "Fighting Peak", the production fee allocated to us must be at least 300 million, and the subsequent post-editing of the program will be all handled by my subsidiary Yingyang Pictures. This condition If you agree, I will consider it."

After hearing Zhang Yang's conditions, Wu Yu frowned and was about to speak, but Zhang Yang waved his hand.

"Don't negotiate with me, these conditions are just my most basic price, no negotiation, brother."

Wu Yu felt that the numbers reported by Zhang Yang were exaggerated, but in fact, Zhang Yang was not exaggerating.

This season of "Fighting Peak" has ended, and the competition broadcast fee quotations have gone up. For Zhang Yang, this is a natural thing. Not to mention TVB, even if they don't come to intervene, Zhang Yang has to talk to Mr. Qiu. once.

As for the cost of producing the program, this is not really Zhang Yang’s intention to raise the price. In these days, there is no such thing as digital photography. The camera stationed in the boxing gym needs to eat two at least every day. The film cost of [-] yuan and the three-month shooting period were doomed. The production cost of the program was not cheap at all.

As for the rights to post-editing, Mr. Qiu personally agreed to make it public.

If TVB people can't even meet these conditions, even if they have higher popularity and ratings, there is absolutely no need for Zhang Yang to do this loss-making business.

After all, it's not the same thing now.The popularity of mixed martial arts has already begun as Zhang Yang has been promoting it for so long.

Now that the peach is getting better and better, there is no reason for TVB people to reach out and pick it, right?
"Mr. Zhang, I'm afraid I have to go back and report your quotation first..."

"go Go."

Zhang Yang also knew that Wu Yu couldn't take the initiative at all, so he waved his hand directly, but just when Wu Yu turned around, Zhang Yang suddenly called him and stopped him. After Wu Yu turned around, Zhang Yang stuffed the two bottles of red wine he had sent earlier. Back in his arms.

"By the way, here are these two bottles of wine. Take them back first. I don't like accepting things from others for no reason."

……

After leaving the boxing gym, Wu Yu drove his car and returned home immediately.

He threw the two bottles of wine on the sofa, sat on the edge of the sofa, picked up the phone, and immediately called Shao Yifu.

Soon, the call was picked up, and Wu Yu didn't hesitate. He directly told Shao Yifu about his meeting with Zhang Yang and all Zhang Yang's conditions. Then he sat nervously in front of the receiver, waiting for Shao Yifu's response.

But for a long time, there was only silence on the other side of the receiver.

There is no need to emphasize again how stingy Shao Yifu is.

Just the accusations made by actors under Shaw Brothers Pictures have already made its reputation famous in the industry.

Even if it weren't for Shao Yifu's stinginess, Zou Wenhuai's independence and Jiahe's rise would never have happened.

And after experiencing so much, does Shao Yifu regret it?
Apparently... no.

This can be seen from TVB's drama production.

Although in order to produce the series, TVB will allocate funds to the crew. Looking at the whole Hong Kong, TVB's crew not only have limited filming funds. In order to be able to peel off the skin of the crew, TVB even includes the studios and studios used by the crew. All equipment must be rented, and the most exaggerated thing is that even the scenes where stand-ins are used will have the corresponding starring salary deducted...

This also leads to the fact that as soon as the TVB crew starts working, the actors have no time to rest at all. All the crew will tacitly choose to work non-stop 24 hours a day. As directors, producers, and actors, don’t you want to take a break?

They dare not rest!
If you finish the shoot one day late, you will be charged an extra day's rental fee. This money is all included in the budget. In order to put more into your pocket, why don't you risk your life!
Under such an environment of TVB, it is enough to prove how stingy Shao Yifu is.

Perhaps to Zhang Yang, his offer was reasonable, but to Shao Yifu, Zhang Yang, the bastard, was simply skinning him and sucking his blood! !

Making things difficult is purely making things difficult for yourself!
After a long time, Shao Yifu's voice finally sounded in the receiver.

"Ignore Zhang Yang, the loud-mouthed bastard, Wu Yu, can't you make a good show without him?"
