Chapter 382 Contracting
Qiu Degen is not yet 60 years old and is in very good spirits.
He was wearing casual clothes, and was not surprised to see Gong Xue. He had obviously learned about it in advance, and greeted him with a smile: "They say Mr. Chen is extraordinary in appearance, young and promising, and meeting him is better than being famous. It is thanks to you that Li Zhuanglie made the show." , the ratings are gratifying, I really want to thank you in person.”
"How dare you, you are too generous!"
After a few polite words, Qiu Degen turned his eyes to Gong Xue and said, "I read in the newspaper that Miss Gong is from Shanghai?"
"Yes, my ancestors moved from Changzhou."
"Changzhou...my ancestors are from Ningbo. Although they have never been back, the elders in my family often talk about it, and they know a few streets."
“…”
Gong Xue was a little nervous. She knew the role of sitting here. She smiled in a unique Jiangnan dialect: "I heard that Mr. Qiu used to be at the Daguangming Theater. My home is on Chongqing North Road, not far away. I often go to the movies."
"Chongqing North Road is indeed not far away. How is Daguangming now?"
"It''s good! There weren''t many movies shown in the past few years, until the mainland opened again, and a drama film "A Dream of Red Mansions" was released. The audience queued up all night. The old people said that this was how it was when "Gone with the Wind" was released."
"Oh, Gone with the Wind!"
Qiu Degen came to chat and recalled: "I was working as a small worker in Daguangming when I was 15 years old. It was like 1939, and "Gone with the Wind" was released the next year. We in Shanghai were very foreign-style. Decades ago Movies from Warner, Paramount, RKO, and MGM are screened in Shanghai.
"Gone with the Wind" was a huge crowd-pleaser and made 20 million French currency. I remember it clearly..."
Those who went south to Hong Kong and had successful careers were mostly from Shanghai and Guangdong.
Friendship with fellow countrymen is unavoidable. Take Alex Shum as an example. Shanghainese is a key factor for her to be valued by Run Run Shaw. After this group of old Shanghainese passed away, this invisible circle disappeared.
Gong Xue liked him and chatted with Qiu Degen back and forth.
Qiu Degen also had a good impression of this Jiangnan woman, and was quite surprised by her relationship with Chen Qi: There was a big age difference between the couple.
"Master, the food is ready!" the maid reminded at the right time.
"Oh... please come over here, just a simple meal, don''t feel bad about it."
He led the two of them to the dining room. There were no outsiders, and the dishes were home-cooked dishes. Only one fish was considered grand. He continued to eat and chat, and said with a smile: "I have told Li Zhuanglie to capture this golden phoenix of yours. Do you have any idea?" If you want to cooperate, just talk to him.”
"Thank you! There is indeed something that Director Li cannot decide today."
"Oh? Tell me."
Chen Qidao: "You entered the television industry and renamed it ATV, with the intention of competing with TVB. When making television, programs are naturally the core. I was sent to Hong Kong by the country and granted the right to operate freely, except for movies. I also want to do some TV shows.”
"How do you do this? Is it possible that you want to apply for a TV license? With all due respect, the British Hong Kong government will not approve it." Qiu Degen reminded.
"No, no, I mean to imitate the separation of production and broadcasting abroad."
“…”
Qiu Degen was noncommittal and asked: "How to solve the copyright issue?"
"If you take the initiative to entrust it, the copyright belongs to you. If it is our original program and you are interested in purchasing it, please discuss the copyright in detail."
"How to trade?"
"Either a one-price buyout, or a tiered price based on ratings, or a share of advertising."
Chen Qi explained in detail: "There are three main categories. The first is TV series, including TV movies; the second is variety shows, such as "Water Rush", variety shows are diverse, have huge potential, and can be made into many programs.
Third, it’s cartoons. "
"Move, cartoon??"
For the first time, Qiu Degen looked surprised and said: "It''s hard to describe Hong Kong''s animations. TV animations are not produced locally at all, they are all imported. The movies are also very poor. It seems that a short film "Old Master" was made last year, and there is nothing else... You Are you sure this is included? "That''s the truth.
Hong Kong''s local animation has been declining, and until later generations, there were only a few "Old Master" and "McDull".
In comparison, Hong Kong comics are very popular. In the 1980s, Hong Kong comics had masterpieces such as "Bruce Lee", "Dragon Tiger Gate" and "Heroes of China", followed by "Wind and Cloud", "Legend of the Emperor", "Young and Dangerous", etc. wait…
"Our company has abundant talent resources and can handle it. Children are an important audience group, so don''t ignore it."
“…”
Qiu Degen looked at the other party again. This young man had a very unique idea. Simply put, he wanted to do three types of programs: TV series, variety shows, and cartoons, and he wanted to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with ATV.
He pondered for a moment and then said: "I agree with the intention of cooperation. It is not good to just talk about specific projects. You still have to come up with detailed plans."
"Of course, if you can approve this cooperation model, my work today will not be in vain."
Chen Qi was very happy.
He is sitting on the treasure house of the entire mainland, and of course he is rich in resources, such as cartoons. With this, he can kidnap, ah, bind to a US factory...
The system in the mainland is rigid, and those who want to go overseas cannot do so.
It doesn''t matter, if he can go to sea, he will not forget the poor brother behind him. He wants to take over a lot of work, outsource it to the mainland, bring everyone together to make money, and then seize the right to speak.
…
Zhong Chuhong fell into the water and couldn''t get the TV, but Liu Xuehua got it. Liu Xuehua bought a small-sized color TV before, but when she changed it to a larger one, she no longer needed it and sold it to her at a cheap price.
It''s late at night.
She was lying on the bed wearing a small tank top, with white **** covering her round buttocks, exposing her two strong thighs. In fact, if the thighs are too thin, it doesn’t look good. If you want them to be fuller, then the calves will be long and thin, and the lines will look great.
That''s the shape of her legs.
"ha!"
Zhong Chuhong watched the few channels available. There were no programs left, so she turned off the TV and prepared to go to bed.
I hugged my favorite pig doll, and I didn’t care about the messy hair. I tilted my head and was about to fall asleep, but in the darkness, there was a faint sound coming through.
“…”
She opened her eyes and listened carefully. It was a bit like a whimper, a bit like a whisper. In short, it was a very suppressed sound.
Bang!
The doll was thrown against the wall.
She had heard it several times, so of course she knew what was going on next door.
According to Zhong Chuhong''s character, the moment he saw Gong Xue, he would stay away from Chen Qi and never get involved. However, firstly, Chen Qi had never harassed her, so there was no way of interfering with her; secondly, the two of them lived next door and could not avoid seeing each other without looking down and looking up...
Especially the first point, this is what makes her angry all the time: it makes her seem to have a unilateral affection for others, and she feels that she is a little bit too much.
After a while, the strange noises stopped, but the creaking sound of the bed shaking was heard again.
"What time is it?"
"It''s been taking so long!"
She threw away the second doll, held her head and ran to another small bedroom, refusing to listen.
