The beginning of a city with a trillion

"Maybe the old man has stayed at home for a long time, let's take a look."

"Why do I feel wrong? Every time Mr. Shao comes to the TV station, something will happen. I hope I am overthinking..."

And the elevator was quiet.

At this time, Shao Yifu asked casually: "The TV station has a lot of new faces."

"En." Mrs. Fang responded.

Shao Yifu was also silent.

"Ding!"

The sixth floor is here.

With the help of his wife, Shao Yifu got out of the elevator and walked to the chairman's office. On the way, he passed hundreds of meters of corridors and several offices.

He walked slowly, his eyes sweeping across the offices one by one.

Everything has changed now. Along the way, many offices are sparsely staffed.

You know, during the heyday of TVB, thousands of people gathered in this building, and every day they had to queue up to take the elevator to and from get off work.

How many people are there now?

Especially the state of the staff. Although they were laughing, they were numb and depressed.

Just like people get old, TVB is also aging.

Inside the office.

Oolong tea, Ming Pao.

Mrs. Fang prepared the old man one by one, and then she stood behind the old man and massaged his shoulders.

drink tea and read the newspaper

This is most of what Shao Yifu does now. He picked up the newspaper and opened the entertainment page, and the headlines caught his attention:

"Hong Kong dramas are no longer brilliant, and mainland dramas are making a comeback."

This is a report written by a TV practitioner in mainland Shenzhen, which said: "If you ask how brilliant Hong Kong dramas used to be? It can be said that a single TVB propped up the fortress of the entire Chinese TV drama market... If you ask how brilliant TVB was:

"TVB Artists Training Class" Zhou Runfa, Liang Chaowei, Ren Dahua, Zhou Xingchi, Donnie Yen, Andy Lau, etc. have become the only superstars in Hong Kong and even the Chinese performing arts circle today, and they are veritable star-making factories.

TVB TV dramas in the early years include the self-produced first full-length color drama "Misty Rain" (1973) and the first Jin Yong martial arts drama "Sword of Enmity and Enmity" (1976). —— Zheng Shaoqiu.

TVB martial arts dramas such as "Dragon and Ba Bu", "The Legend of Condor Heroes", "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", "Xia Ke Xing", "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji", "Deer and Ding Ji" and other TVB martial arts dramas became popular all over the country and became the best popular TV series in the 1980s when the production of TV dramas in the mainland was weak. way of entertainment.

Another TVB drama that sparked a boom in ratings in the mainland in the 1980s was "Shanghai Bund" starring Zhou Runfa and Zhao Yazhi.

There is also "Golden Branch of Desire", the Xiangjiang TV industry at that time became the "Golden Branch of Desire Year" without any suspense.

"Golden Branch Desire" not only won the ratings and word-of-mouth during the broadcast period, but also won almost all awards at the TVB Taiwan Celebration Award Ceremony..."

It can be said that TVB was once a sign of an era, a memory of generations.But now, TVB is like an old lady, her youth is gone and her steps are faltering.

The glory of the queen of Chinese TV is no longer.

Hong Kong drama fans can only sigh helplessly: "The heart is still the heart that is obsessed with Hong Kong dramas, and the drama fans are still the same group of drama fans, but TVB is no longer the TVB of the past." '

On the contrary, mainland dramas are becoming more and more popular, not only the ratings are super high, but also a large number of TVB artists have joined in the north, and there is a tendency to seize the Hong Kong drama market..."

Shao Yifu muttered to himself, his hands trembling slightly.

The wife behind him wanted to say something, but was finally speechless.

In the dark, it seems that God's will is at work.

TVb has witnessed the glory of Heung Kong TV, and promoted the glory of Heung Kong TV. It has also witnessed the decline of Heung Kong TV, and it has also declined along with it.

"... Now turn on the TV, 67 satellite TV, in addition to Xiangjiang Satellite TV, resolutely implement the idol fashion line, how many other stations will be keen to broadcast Hong Kong and Taiwan dramas? The decline of Hong Kong and Taiwan dramas is gradually becoming a fact. And behind this decline, there is How many emotional entanglements, reasons and inside stories, we will count them one by one.

Reason [-]: Monopolizing the Hong Kong TV industry, the system is chaotic.As we all know, there are only two or three TV stations in the Xiangjiang area, and the impact of cable TV stations on TVB is very negligible.It is conceivable that TVB has no rivals and has almost monopolized the TV industry in Xiangjiang.A satellite TV needs to meet all the needs of TV dramas and support a huge TVB team.The annual output is very high, but for artists, directors, screenwriters, and producers, the ratio of what they pay and what they get is seriously out of balance.

A former TVB artist revealed: In order to fight for performances, earn money, and realize dreams, the artist silently compromised with a company that required artists to work 24 hours a day, but the salary was only three to one quarter of that of mainland artists.There is no competition in the entire TV industry in Heung Kong, TVB dominates, and artists have no choice. This difficult situation has not been improved so far. "

Reason [-]: High-level internal strife continues, and people's hearts are scattered...

Reason [-]: The salary is too low, gold medal directors leave the nest one after another...

Reason [-]: Artists go north to make money, focusing on "money"...

The fifth reason is also the most important reason: the development of the mainland is too fast, and TVB is stagnant

For the current booming mainland market, there are few high-quality Hong Kong and Taiwan dramas.

A well-known mainland director explained: "In fact, TVB has not regressed in the past few years. You must know that ten years ago, when the mainland did not know what a set was, Xiangjiang's filming was already very advanced.In fact, the mainland is developing too fast, while TVB is stagnant. '"

"The mainland is developing too fast, but TVB is stagnant"

This sentence reached Yifu Shao's heart.

Why TVB has stagnated, Shao Yifu actually understands better than anyone else, the core reason is that he is old.

However, the TVB aircraft carrier has not yet found its captain. Without an heir at the helm, the aircraft carrier will also be lost in the sea.

In contrast, mainland dramas have flourished in the past four or five years.

Later in this report, there is also a detailed introduction to the prosperity of mainland TV dramas. Its scale is so large that it has even begun to infiltrate Hong Kong.

"Last year, a mainland TV series "Love All Over the World" landed on Heung Kong Cable Entertainment Channel and HD Channel at the same time. "The Temptation of Returning to the Village" became the highest-rated mainland drama in Hong Kong and Taiwan."

"The copyright prices of some domestic TV dramas have continued to soar in the past year, and the online copyrights of some popular film and television dramas have jumped from 1 yuan per episode a year ago to 100 million to 200 million yuan per episode.

In June last year, the online copyright of the still-unfinished "Attack the Heart" was sold for 2000 million yuan; in July, Sohu Video bought the exclusive broadcasting rights of the new "Huanzhugege" website for 7 million yuan; in October, Tencent paid 3000 million yuan Yuan bought the exclusive online copyright of "Gong 10" at a high price, setting a domestic record so far. "

Seeing these reports, Shao Yifu frowned, put down the newspaper and took a sip of tea.

After recovering, he continued to read the newspaper.

At this time, a news picture appeared in his eyes not long ago.

In the picture, Yang Fei received the "Charity Gambling King" trophy from the gambling king.

"Is this the young man I want to meet today?" Shao Yifu pointed to Yang Fei in the picture and asked his wife.

"Yes." Madam nodded.
