We are all reborn, who wants to be the richest man?

As the New Year approaches, Jackie Chan has become a man of the hour in Hong Kong Island in 1984. Peak Hour, starring in him, has already been drawn in major box office areas around the world, earning US$2.33 million worldwide.

The Chinese media praised Jackie Chan as another Hong Kong Kung Fu superstar. His pleasing martial arts skills in movies have conquered many foreigners.

In Asia, this Hong Kong movie is now the only important box office, contributing a total of 7000 million US dollars in box office, breaking box office records in many countries, and for a while, the shouts of "Big Brother" were endless.

Jackie Chan's success is a great news for Asia Media. Apart from this incident, Asia Media's biggest focus this year is the split and listing of ATV.

The Hong Kong government has formulated a policy that since 1988, television stations have not been allowed to operate other industries besides television stations, such as newspapers, magazines, etc., and television stations have not been allowed to exist as subsidiaries.

The former is aimed at TVB, while the latter conflicts with ATV.

Since it was going to be split, Luo Nianzhong simply let ATV go public.

ATV has negotiated an agreement with Rabbit to launch a Dongfanghong-1986A communication satellite under development for ATV in . In the next five years, it will launch a communication satellite for ATV and Far East Communications. For this reason, ATV and Far East Communications paid a total of $ million.

This satellite has four television broadcast channels and 3000 telephone transmission capabilities, which is enough for the two companies for now.

Since it is going to be split, the money must not be spent on its own. Part of the funds raised from the sale of a part of the shares can just pay for the satellite expenses.

Time has entered 1985, and the first major event in the entertainment industry at the beginning of the year was the establishment of the Hong Kong Island Golden Melody Association and the holding of the first Hong Kong Island Golden Melody Awards.

At this time, there was no formal and large-scale Chinese music award selection in the Chinese music scene. The Bayan Golden Melody Awards that we are familiar with only started in 1990 and were expanded based on the "Good Songs to Sing Together" held in 1986.

Now that Hong Kong Island already has the Golden Image Awards to commend film workers, Shuyi Zhou proposed to organize an award for the Chinese music scene and Chinese TV programs. Luo Nianzhong simply and easily named the Golden Melody Award.

Needless to say, in the Chinese music scene, Hong Kong culture has been exported to Southeast Asia in recent years, and Chinese music has also conquered Southeast Asia along with Chinese movies.

Writing down the Cantonese transliteration word by word with pen and paper because he couldn't understand has become the memory of many foreigners in later generations. What Luo Nianzhong wants is not the feelings after many years, but the cultural output of striking while the iron is hot.

As for Chinese TV program awards, ATV takes huge credit.

With the popularity and copyright sales of well-produced Hong Kong TV series such as Hong Kong Love Story, an urban drama, martial arts series, sitcoms, and period dramas, ATV has gradually begun to pay more attention to TV series.

In order to encourage the people in front and behind the scenes of TV dramas, so as not to make TV dramas look inferior to movies, and avoid a massive loss of talent, the establishment of TV drama awards was put on the agenda.

"Let's wait and finish the Golden Melody Awards first. Things have to be done one by one. I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

At Asia Media's last high-level meeting before the year, Luo Nianzhong suppressed another suggestion from Shuyi Zhou to create a TV drama award.

It's not that Luo Nianzhong doesn't want to do it, but he wants to connect Wanwan and Rabbit to work on TV series.

Whether it is the Feitian Award, the Golden Eagle Award or the Wanwan Golden Bell Award, Luo Nianzhong does not ask for anything else. He just hopes that both parties can allow local works to participate in the selection of this TV drama award that Asia Media wants to create.

What Luo Nianzhong wants is not an award aimed at the TV drama industry in Hong Kong. What he wants is an award that can radiate to the entire Asia.

For example, this year's Academy Awards has launched an award for Best Foreign Language Film, and a series of awards such as screenwriting, dubbing, etc. are also open to entries from other countries.

Europe now has three major international film festivals, why can't Asia have its own international film awards?

Unlike TV dramas and songs, which are limited to Chinese-language works, Luo Nianzhong believes that the Academy Awards can become bigger with the help of the export of Hong Kong culture.

Only in this way can we better learn and draw on better technologies from other countries and avoid becoming complacent and declining.

Hong Kong Island is small, so the scope of award selections dedicated to Chinese music and Chinese TV dramas must be expanded.

Asia Media has a very good relationship with Yangma, and Yangma has agreed that her works can be selected for future TV drama awards organized by Asia Media.

The current production level of TV dramas in Hong Kong is definitely ten to fifteen years ahead of the rest of Asia. This is also a good learning opportunity for Yang Ma.

Now the only thing left is Wanwan. As long as a cooperation is reached, a grand ceremony in the Chinese television industry will come soon.

Not only TV dramas, but also various programs and other front and backstage staff will receive awards. In the future, Luo Nianzhong will also want to win the best TV station award as he participates more.

Zhou Liang Shuyi was just too anxious. Seeing that there was no news from Wanwan, she wanted to start the project.

Luo Nianzhong can understand her. After all, she already has the Academy Award and the Golden Melody Award. If there is no award in the TV industry, there will definitely be complaints.

But there's no point in being anxious. That's not how things work. There is a difference in the difficulty of becoming fat all of a sudden and becoming fat slowly.

As a promoter of Hong Kong culture bound to Asia, we must step on other awards from the very beginning.

"How are the preparations for the Golden Melody Awards going?"

“It’s set for February 2, the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.

What I mean is that in the future, unless there are special reasons, the Golden Melody Awards will be held on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, which can be regarded as adding to the festive joy."

The choice of this day made Luo Nianzhong frown and then relax. As long as the award was valuable enough and attracted a lot of attention, the singers would attend the event regardless of whether it was a Chinese New Year or not.

This is the same as the later Spring Festival Gala.

If this award is awkward and not many singers attend, it doesn't matter what date is chosen.

"Okay, let's set this date.

At that time, entertainment newspapers and magazines such as Asia Media's Entertainment Weekly can put those singers and queens as cover characters, and build momentum for them just like the Academy Awards, attracting more singers to participate."

"What about other aspects?" Luo Nianzhong was referring to issues such as registration and logistics.

“As for the contestants, in addition to singers from Hong Kong Island, most singers from the Bay Area also signed up, and even many Chinese singers from Southeast Asia also participated in the selection.

There is also the issue of venue. Like the Hong Kong Film Awards, the venue of the Grand Hyatt Oriental Hotel is rented for the event.

I'm wondering if we can build a special venue and renovate it to hold some exhibitions and other activities."

Professional venue? This reminded Luo Nianzhong of the Hong Kong International Convention and Exhibition Center.

This future landmark building on Hong Kong Island is about to break ground and is jointly owned by the Hong Kong government and the Hong Kong Island Trade Development Council.

In terms of management, New World is making every effort to fight for it. Shar Dantong also asked Luo Nianzhong if he had any ideas.

Instead, we can talk to MacLehose about having the Far East Group fund the construction of a more majestic Hong Kong International Convention and Exhibition Center.

The Far East Exhibition is becoming more and more influential as its popularity increases, and the corresponding exhibitor categories are also increasing.

In the future, the Far East Exhibition will definitely not be satisfied with high-tech fields such as semiconductor electronics. The expanded Hong Kong International Convention and Exhibition Center is very suitable.

Not only is the Far East Exhibition, an exhibition that has become well-known around the world and has huge influence, it is also the three major awards of Hong Kong Entertainment. It is also a good publicity for the Hong Kong Island International Convention and Exhibition Center. The two parties complement each other.

"I will think about this matter and see if I can discuss it with the Hong Kong International Convention and Exhibition Center and the Hong Kong government. If not, I will consider building a new venue."

Everyone was very excited after hearing Luo Nianzhong's idea. If they could win the Hong Kong International Convention and Exhibition Center, which was built as a landmark, it would be an improvement for the awards.
