Entertainment tycoon since 83

Chapter 222: Drama
"Ah? Can this still happen?"

"What else?" Huang Ze smiled. "Do you think film awards only consider artistry and not politics? It's not that simple. Why was I able to win the Golden Lion? There were artistic considerations, but another reason was that the country began to gradually open up. The other party didn't want to give up such a large market and wanted domestic influence."

"But you make a movie about Nazis killing Jews..."

Gong Xing smacked his lips, "Isn't that too bad?"

"They're all Nazis anyway, why not make an anti-Japanese film? It's more in line with your identity."

"That's not in line with the rules, okay?" Huang Ze's hands trembled. "Look at you, you're considering it one-sidedly, right? You're only considering my identity?"

"What is my other identity?"

"He is an international singer and director, and is very famous internationally. He can be said to be a business card for our country to the outside world."

"Now we are making peace with Japan in order to develop the economy, so I can make an anti-Japanese film."

"Someone will surely ask you what your intentions are. You did it on purpose, didn't you? You are a traitor. You took dollars from abroad to destroy the relationship with Japan."

"..." Gong Xing was stunned, as if the door to a new world had been opened, "Well, then don't make this kind of film in the future."

"There's no need to be so absolute."

“Everything changes.”

“Just follow the route and swing with it and you’ll be fine.”

"..." Gong Xing once again didn't know what to say, but thinking about his own experience, he vaguely felt that Huang Ze's words were right.

Just then, "bang, bang" sounds were heard.

Looking down, I saw my son holding the Golden Lion in both hands and smashing it on the Golden Palm like he was cracking walnuts.

Every time it was hit, Huang Ze's heart would beat.

Be good!
What a wasteful thing.

"Hashimoto has..."

"No, Hashibean Sack!"

"Son! When your dad wins more awards in the future, you can smash them at will. But stop now!"

Huang Ze reached out to pull it, and immediately started crying in front of you.

Huang Ze had no choice but to let go. Gong Xing saw through it and took out a small monster that was killed by Ultraman in some episode and gave it to his son. The golden lion was then freed and Huang Ze quickly put it away.

"Look, Ultraman is more attractive than your golden lion, right?"

"At his age, what does he know about Ultraman? He can only watch..."

"Look at what?"

"Nothing." Huang Ze rolled his eyes, "What do you think about me asking ATV to make a program suitable for three to five year olds to learn how to speak?"

"Sure!" Gong Xing said, "We'll shoot it this year, and when it's finished, we'll let our son watch it."

"Nowadays, whether it's ATV or TVB, there are few programs like this."

"Those cartoons are incomprehensible to me unless I'm six years old."

After saying that, seeing Huang Ze's happy face, Gong Xing couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's wrong? Do you, a big director, already have a plan?"

"I have a good plan."

"It's definitely a great drama."

"Wait a moment, I'll draw it for you!"

Huang Ze picked up the two trophies and went to his trophy display room first.

There are two cabinets in total.

One cabinet is for music trophies, and the other is for movie trophies.

Originally, movie trophies were placed on the first layer.

But now there is another Palme d'Or, so they have to sort them out. Huang Ze moved the other trophies to the second floor, and then put the Palme d'Or and the Lion in the middle of the first floor!
"Well! Let's try to fill up the first floor!"

With his hands on his hips, Huang Ze fantasized unbridled for a while, then walked to the kitchen and returned with paper, pen and watercolor pen.

He put the paper away and quickly drew a few lines.

“Is this a lawn?”

"Yes!" Huang Ze responded without explaining and continued to draw, "First draw a circle, then a straight line, a more twisted shape, and then a triangle."

"Then draw downwards: big ears, big eyes, no nose, a fat belly, and a TV screen on the belly."

"Then I used colored pencils to paint them red, green, yellow, and purple."

Then write four words on it: "Teletubbies".

"How is it?" Putting down the pen, Huang Ze couldn't help but slap his forehead, "I really have a childlike heart!"

"Ah?" Gong Xing examined it and said, "It looks quite cute."

"So you're going to make a cartoon?"

"What kind of cartoon are you making? Just find a few people to put on puppet costumes and set up a grass studio to shoot." Huang Ze said.

"The cost shouldn't be low, right?" Gong Xian said with some concern. "Children under six like to watch it, so isn't the audience too small? If the ratings aren't high, we might lose money."

"You're wrong, aren't you?" Huang Ze laughed. "Let the children watch cartoons, and parents can do other things, right? If the prime time slot can't be snatched up, there should be no problem with the daytime slot, right?"

"As for whether to compensate or not..."

Huang Ze smiled.

You laugh at Teletubbies for being childish, and Teletubbies laugh at you for paying your mortgage.

This children's drama came out in 97, and by 99, it had already earned more than 4600 million pounds.

Later, it became more and more popular and was sold to more than 100 countries around the world. Before Huang Ze traveled through time, the broadcasting rights alone sold for 10 billion pounds.

As for the licensing fees for toys, Huang Ze didn't even dare to think about it.

Even a simple calculation would tell you that there is a 99% chance that it will not be lower than the broadcast fee.

This is simply a gold mine!
I’m afraid it can’t compare to the popular series of movies.

After all, you have to give the protagonist a share of the profits in a series of movies, and the protagonist will ask for more as the film progresses.

In the TV series “Teletubbies”, who can recognize each other once the headgear is put on?

If you want a raise, give it to me within a reasonable range. It will be good for you, me and everyone else.

It's going too far. If you don't act, there are plenty of people who will!
We lack everything except people to play Teletubbies!

And the production cost is also low, there is only one studio that can be used over and over again.

Don’t worry about the age, this is definitely a hit with preschoolers.

The only thing to worry about is that this children's drama was produced by the BBC.

The other party's influence around the world is not comparable to that of ordinary TV stations.

but……

Considering the huge profits, it is still worth a try.

After all, I have already made my way through "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" and proved ATV's production capabilities.

At worst, we can give them the UK broadcasting rights of "Teletubbies" for free and set an example for other countries.

Huang Ze believes that there will be no problem in becoming popular!

Although Huang Ze could not quite understand the logic behind its popularity, almost everyone knew about its popularity around the world in its previous life, which was by no means an exaggeration.

Huang Ze was an orphan in his previous life. In order to make up for his childhood, he even played the show while writing scripts or reading books, and watched hundreds of episodes.
