560, the poaching war officially begins

That night at 7pm!

In the middle of Xiangjiang Mountain, today Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang came to the old lady to have dinner with her.

By this time dinner had been finished and the family was sitting in the living room watching TV.

"Hey, why did the host of Li's TV news change today?"

Old Mrs. Wu looked at the host on the TV with a suspicious expression. The old lady watched the news every day, especially the host of the 7 o'clock news program on TV, who liked Li, and felt that he was very grand.

Simply because she likes this host, the old lady also watches the news programs on Li TV.

Cao Yunshang, who was sitting next to the old lady, looked at Chu Huan. Chu Huan shook his head at Cao Yunshang, indicating that he didn't know anything.

After the matter of poaching people was handed over to Liang Risi, Chu Huan did not ask about the specific step he had taken.

Cao Yunshang knew Chu Huan's plan, so he thought it was Chu Huan's masterpiece.

But when Cao Yunshang saw Chu Huan shaking his head, he became even more curious. But now that the old lady was here, Cao Yunshang couldn't ask too many questions.

"According to the news obtained by this station, the Hong Kong Film and Television Office will officially launch the Hong Kong film classification system on November 1. At that time, Hong Kong films will refer to foreign film classification systems to classify Hong Kong films into...

In addition to launching the Hong Kong film classification system, in order to promote Hong Kong films and encourage Hong Kong films to produce better films, the Heung Kong Film and Television Office will also assist "Image" magazine in organizing a film festival belonging to Hong Kong..."

""Image"? What kind of movie magazine is this?" Zeng Hong sat on another sofa and asked Chu Huan with some curiosity: "Ah Huan, I remember you don't have a magazine like "Movie Biweekly"

Film Magazine, has the Hong Kong Film Awards already been held? Why is there still another film festival held in Hong Kong now?"

Chu Huan sat there and said with a smile: "Our Film Awards are private in nature. Didn't you watch this film festival? This is official in nature."

Chen Xincheng, who was sitting next to Zeng Hong, looked worried.

After getting familiar with the situation in Xiangjiang, Chen Xincheng found his own job and worked in a comic company. At first, Chen Xincheng worked in an art studio in his hometown of Shenghai. There was no problem with his painting skills, but

The style of comics here in Xiangjiang is very different, so my current situation at that comic company is that I am better than a freelancer, but I am not yet the main artist.

And Chu Huan did not place Chen Xincheng in the Fantasy Comics Club. Chen Xincheng's identity was too special. If he joined Chu Huan's company, his identity would be exposed, and it would not be easy for him to work.

Now he is doing well in another comic company. Although the salary is not high, his family does not need his labor to support the family. He only needs to give his labor to Zeng Hong every month.

However, it was precisely because Chen Xincheng started working that he knew more things. During this period, he had heard a lot about the Hong Kong government's intention to target Chu Huan.

Now we see that the Hong Kong government has officially launched a film festival and a film censorship system. This is obviously aimed at Chu Huan.

But again, the old lady is here, and Chen Xincheng doesn't want the old lady to worry about Chu Huan's situation, so no one talks to the old lady about outside matters.

"This movie rating system is really good!"

The old lady didn't understand this. After listening to the detailed description of the film rating system on TV, she expressed her own opinion.

"Before, I took Amao to see a few movies, but the movies contained either strong language or this and that. If we have this rating system, we would know which movies we can take Amao to see.

There’s nothing you can’t see without Amao.”

The old lady’s thoughts actually represent the thoughts of many people in Xiangjiang. With a specific rating system, everyone can find the movies they want to watch more clearly.

"Oh, these things have nothing to do with us anyway. Let's watch the news from other stations first!"

Chen Shuli also found her own job in Xiangjiang at this time. She had previously worked in a woolen mill in her hometown of Shenghai, but now she did not work in a factory. Instead, she found a job as a clerk in a trading company. The labor costs were not high, and the company

It is also a small company, otherwise it would not hire Chen Shuli.

But Chen Shuli just needs to be happy.

She was in the same situation as Chen Xincheng. She also knew about Chu Huan's current confrontation with the Hong Kong government, so she was worried that Chu Huan would be unhappy after seeing this, so she directly switched the TV to TVB.

Like Li TV, TVB at this time was also broadcasting its own news.

However, unlike the news from Li's TV station, TVB did not report much about the film rating system and film festivals. Instead, it reported another thing, a news report that ordinary Hong Kong people prefer to watch.

"According to our news, the actress Ms. Huang Shali and the host Ms. Lu Qin of the next station have had some cooperation problems with Li's TV station. Now these two ladies have decided to temporarily leave Li's TV station until both parties calm down.

, let’s discuss together their personal development issues in the future!”

The host of Li's TV station was sitting there, preaching with a relaxed expression.

.

rub!

Huang Xizhao, who was watching TVB news at home, stood up immediately. Naturally, he was watching TVB not because he wanted to support TVB, but more because he wanted to know what new trends TVB had.

As a result, I didn’t see the trends of TVB, but I saw the trends of their Li TV.

Neither Huang Shali nor Lu Qin came to the company today. The company searched for them all day, but there was no trace. Just when they were still thinking about what happened, TVB gave them the answer.

Did the two of them have a conflict with Li's TV station?

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! How the hell don’t I, the director, know this?

It only took a moment for Huang Xizhao to understand the meaning. This was not a contradiction, but TVB was poaching people.

And as soon as he made a move, he made a big move and poached the TV station's current female lead in a popular TV series and the ace female host of the news column.

"So cruel!"

Huang Xizhao gritted his teeth and said.

He was about to pick up the phone next to him and call Mai Fangxiong, but as soon as his hand fell on the phone, he heard the phone ringing.

Without hesitation, Huang Xizhao directly picked up the phone, and it was indeed Mai Fangxiong's voice over there.

"Mr. Huang, did you watch the news from TVB just now?"

Huang Xizhao said: "Look, I already know the situation. I will immediately summon the people in the station to the company for a meeting!"

Huang Xizhao, who had realized the seriousness of the situation, immediately ordered Mai Tanxiong to summon Taili's senior executives back to the company for a meeting.

"OK!"

Mai Fangxiong didn't talk nonsense. After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone.

After Huang Xizhao put down the phone, he stood up and started to put on his coat. His wife, who had just walked out of the kitchen, saw this and asked, "Are you going out so late?"

Huang Xizhao said with some urgency: "Something happened in the station, I need to go back and deal with it!"

Just when Huang Xizhao's wife was about to say be careful, the phone rang again.

"Telephone?"

Huang Xizhao glanced at the still ringing phone and walked over to answer it. Before the other party could say anything, Huang Xizhao was already talking: "I'll be at the company soon. We'll talk about anything when we get to the company!"

After hanging up the phone, Huang Xizhao said to his wife: "If someone calls again, just tell them that I have arrived at the company!"

"Okay, be careful on the road!"

"Um!"

.

12 Mount Galley Road!

At this time, Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang had just returned from the old lady's place, and Cao Yunshang curiously asked Chu Huan.

"Huang Shali and the others are both Liang Risi's masterpieces?"

Chu Huan raised his head slightly and said: "It should be like this."

Cao Yunshang helped Chu Huan take off his coat and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Liang Risi's work efficiency was so high. On just the first day, he had already poached two generals from Li's TV."

Chu Huan sat on the sofa and said with a smile: "This is just the beginning, it will be more lively later."

Cao Yunshang took the opportunity to sit in Chu Huan's arms and said with the same smile: "There are so many people on Li TV, two every day, which can always stimulate the media in Xiangjiang. They will all pay attention to TVB's poaching."

People are fighting, so no one pays attention to the film rating system and film festivals."

Chu Huan said: "It's not just TVB's poaching war. I think Li's TV should have realized it now. Huang Xizhao still has some abilities. If those ghost guys hadn't helped Zai Li's TV to cause trouble for him, Li Xiao

It will definitely give you a lot of headaches.”

Cao Yunshang said: "I didn't expect you to be quite optimistic about Huang Xizhao."

If Zhou Liang Shuyi regards the platform's ability as her own ability, then Huang Xizhao really uses her own ability to drive the platform's influence!

Whether it was the period of Li's TV station or the period of Asia Television, the period when Huang Xizhao was in power was their most glorious period.

.

In the conference room of the main building of Lidi TV Station!

Bill Clifford was the last one to come to the office. He smelled of alcohol and asked unhappily.

"What happened? You called everyone to the company so late at night?"

Huang Xizhao sat there and said in a cold voice: "Aren't you always curious about where Lu Qin went today?"

Upon hearing the news about Lu Qin, Bill Clifford immediately sobered up and asked: "We found that woman, where is she? If I hadn't temporarily found someone to take her place, tonight's news would have almost failed."

After opening the skylight, I must take good care of her!"

Obviously, Bill Clifford did not know what happened tonight. In fact, if he knew, he would not be smelling of alcohol.

Huang Xizhao continued to speak coldly: "She has already changed jobs and was poached by TVB!"

"Impossible, this is impossible!" Bill Clifford was like Mr. Chen's Cao Cao. He waved his hand and said, "Why would she want to change jobs? What can TVB do for her?"

Mai Fangxiong said from the side: "Not only Lu Qin, but also the female lead of "Big Sister and the Big Madman" Huang Sally has also changed jobs."

"These two ungrateful guys, I will go find them now and ask them why they dare to do this!"

If it were just a simple Huang Sally, Bill Clifford would not be so angry, but would be a little happy, but if there is Lu Qin, it will be different.

Lu Qin was one of his generals. Bill Clifford thought that he was pretty good to Lu Qin in normal times, but now the other party actually gave up on him and was poached by TVB.

Bill Clifford couldn't bear this feeling of betrayal.

Xiao Ruoyuan, who was sitting under Mai Tanxiong, said: "There is no need to look for them. People from the company have already looked for them just now. Both of them are not at home. It is obvious that they are deliberately avoiding our search."

Bill Clifford slumped in his seat, breathing heavily. Lu Qin's departure was a big blow to him. At least half of the ratings brought by Li's TV's news column were due to

As for Lu Qin, now that Lu Qin has switched to TVB, then the ratings of this column will increase...

"The problem now is that we don't know whether TVB is just poaching the two of them, or there are more people. If it's just these two people, what we lose is only now, but if it's more people, then

We may even lose our future!

And I also received news that the newly established Jiayi TV Station is also preparing to recruit people. This time we can be said to be attacked from both sides!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The talent department manager of Li’s TV station gave a serious sermon at this time.

The talent poaching war in the field of Xiangjiang TV has begun at this moment. In fact, in another time and space, three major talent poaching wars broke out between the three major TV stations in Xiangjiang.

The first talent poaching war took place this year. Jiayi TV Station began to officially produce its own TV programs, so it poached many behind-the-scenes talents headed by Jiayi Six Gentlemen from TVB, and also poached many behind-the-scenes talents from Li's TV Station.

Few actors.

The second poaching war took place in 1989, when Lin Boxin purchased 30.83% of ATV's equity from Qiu Degen and became the chairman of ATV's board of directors, officially starting the largest TV war in the history of Hong Kong TV.

The main weapons used in TV wars to poach people are "silver bullets" and "friendship."

Lin Jianyue, the son of Lin Boxin, acted as the lobbyist in front of the scenes. Heavyweight stars such as Fei Fei, Eric Tsang, Ho Hsin-hing, Qiu Guan, Huang Rihua and Simon Yam had never received such attention when they signed contracts with TVB.

Moreover, the low salary of TVB's artists is well known to the outside world. At that time, Lin spent a lot of money and offered superior conditions, so he was struck by silver bullets and sincerity one by one, and went to work for ATV.

Due to too many outgoing artists, the team of TVB's longevity program "Happy Tonight" was disbanded under ATV's heavy blow.

However, it is a pity that Lin Boxin later invited Chow Leung Suk-yee to serve as the president of Asia Television. As a result, despite the good situation, TVB finally counterattacked.

The third time he poached people was during the Wang Weiji period, but this time he poached people, compared to the last time, it was more like a show-off.

Now Liang Risi has started Xiangjiang TV's first talent poaching battle in advance.

Huang Xizhao sat there, sinking like water. If what the artist manager said was true, it would definitely be a devastating blow to Li's TV.

"Ah Xiong, how many more episodes of the TV series "Big Sister and Big Madman" can be played?"

Now this TV series is the most important TV series of their TV station, Huang Xizhao must solve this matter first!

"It's only enough for five days. After five days, it's gone. At that time, the TV series was just halfway through!"

Mai Tanxiong preached in a deep voice.

At this moment, his heart could be said to be full of rage. This was his first TV series to become a hit after becoming Li's TV production director. Now that such a situation has occurred, how could he not be angry?

"Sue them, sue them. They all have contracts with the company. I don't believe they won't be afraid when they receive the lawyer's letter!"

Bill Clifford was shouting loudly.

Huang Xizhao glanced indifferently at this guy who only knew how to fight for power internally, and said calmly: "Chu Huan dares to do this, do you think he doesn't know your actions? At this time, people from the Jiaku Legal Department must be

They have all sharpened their knives and are waiting for our prosecution."

"Chu Huan?" Bill Clifford was stunned for a moment, but then he understood that it was TVB, Black and White Video who arranged these traitors on Li's TV station, but it must be Chu Huan's Jiaku who did this.

After Chu Huan finished dealing with those English newspapers, he started to take action against their beautiful TV station.

"So what if Jiaku's legal department takes action? We have a black and white contract in hand, and we can still win when the time comes!"

Bill Clifford preaches.

Xiao Ruoyuan answered for Huang Xizhao: "Yes, we will win, but that will be at least a few months later. Those in the Jiaku Legal Department don't need to win at all, they just need to prolong the time, because

The longer it is delayed, the more disadvantageous it will be to us. Maybe before this lawsuit is finished, our Li TV will be finished."

Mai Fangxiong also said: "And even if we persist until then, what will happen? Do you think Jiaku will value the liquidated damages at that time?"

Nowadays, the liquidated damages for breach of contracts by artists are quite different from the situation in their hometowns in later generations.

Xiangjiang is too small, and the circle is such a circle. Everyone is more based on integrity. Otherwise, in the history of Xiangjiang TV, there would not have been those three poaching wars.

Bill Clifford fell silent.

Huang Xizhao knocked on the table and said: "Okay, the most important thing now is to stabilize the morale of the military. I believe that early tomorrow morning, the whole of Xiangjiang will report this matter. By then, you must appease the artists of our TV station.

, we cannot let TVB or Jiayi TV poach more people."

Mai Fangxiong asked: "What about the current show "Big Sister and the Big Madman"? Huang Sally has now made it clear that we cannot find her. Without her, there is no way to continue filming this TV series.

?”

Huang Xizhao said: "Try to find Huang Shali as much as possible in these five days. If you can find it, tell her that no matter what conditions are proposed, the company will meet her. If you can't find it..."

After talking about this, Huang Xizhao was silent for a moment and said: "If we can't find her, then we can only shoot an episode of the finale without her in advance!"

Mai Fangxiong was devastated. He never expected that the first popular TV series he supervised would end in such a way.

The ending of "Big Sister and the Big Madman" not only affects this TV series, but also the entire subsequent TV series broadcast plan of Li TV Station.

The most important thing is that in the subsequent process, no other artists can be poached. But this time, TVB is ruthless and accurate, and it is difficult to guarantee that such things will not happen again.

"Then how to explain it to the TV audience?" Xiao Ruoyuan asked.

Although people in Xiangjiang already know about this matter because of TVB's report, Li TV still needs an explanation.

Huang Xizhao gritted her teeth and said: "I will arrange an exclusive interview tomorrow morning and I will appear in person. Regarding this matter, I want the entire Xiangjiang people to join us in accusing TVB and Chu Huan. Chu Huan does not want to use poaching to divert the people of Xiangjiang

I want everyone to focus on the film rating system and film festivals!"

Bill Clifford was originally in charge of the news interview, but at this time, no one in the conference room cared about Bill Clifford's attitude and immediately said: "Yes!"

.

"What a ruthless method. This is directly cutting off the two aces of Li's TV station!"

In a large apartment in Kwun Tong, Sister Chow and Jamie Ye were sitting together and discussing the news that had just been broadcast on TV.

"It seems that your previous speculation was correct. Liang Risi came to Taili just for this matter!"

Jamie Ye shook the red wine glass in her hand and preached to Zhou Liang Shuyi.

Zhou Liang Shuyi nodded and said: "When I first met Liang Risi, I felt that it was definitely not a small matter for her to come to Taiwan in person, but I didn't expect that Chu Huan actually wanted to poach people."

Jamie Ye said with some confusion: "According to Chu Huan's financial resources, if our station really wants to poach people from Li's TV station, shouldn't it be just the two of them?"

Zhou Liang Shuyi said disdainfully: "Of course it can't be just the two of them. You see, for a long time in the future, there will definitely be people from Li TV Station being poached by TVB every day. Chu Huan wants to

This is news for the long term, not the short term."

Jamie Ye is also a very smart person, and he instantly understood what Sylvia Chow meant, "Chu Huan wants to use this news to offset the popularity of the film classification system and the film festival!"

"That's right!" Zhou Liang Shuyi said seriously.

Jamie Ye asked: "Then what should we do now? Should we continue our plan, or should we wait until the heat of this matter subsides before continuing our plan?"

Zhou Liang Shuyi smiled and said: "Isn't this a good opportunity? There are people coming from Li's TV station, but TVB's cake is so big. Now that there are more people, the cake has not changed. It turns out that those TVB artists must be in their hearts

There will be people who are dissatisfied, and we can work with them!"

Jamie Ye's eyes suddenly lit up and he added: "That's right, and people at Li's TV must be panicking now. If we come forward, maybe we can also recruit a few people. By then, Jiayi TV will be the fisherman."

It’s profitable!”

The two are still in TVB now, but their hearts are no longer there, and they are starting to think about how to leverage TVB's corner to develop their own power.

Zhou Liang Shuyi said with a smile: "Yes, that's what I think. If you arrive at the company tomorrow, ask Liu Tianci to contact the artists on stage to find out what they say."

Jamie Ye smiled and said, “Okay!”

.

"Brother Huan, I always feel that your actions this time are a bit impulsive. Poaching people is mutual. Now you can poach Li's TV people. If Huang Xizhao is really as capable as you said,

If you are a person, then he will definitely take action.

I'm worried that TVB won't be able to tell for sure, someone from Li TV is contacting me tonight!"

In the spa room at No. 12 Mount Galley Road, the ambiguous atmosphere in the room indicates that something immoral has just happened here.

Chu Huan looked at the lazy Cao Yunshang and smiled and said, "I said you lost so quickly just now. It turns out you were thinking about other things. Doesn't this make me a little hurt?"

Cao Yunshang's face suddenly turned red and she said, "No, I just thought about it when I was done."

Chu Huan did not argue with Cao Yunshang about this, and said with a smile: "TVB's plate is still a bit small. It's just the beginning now, and nothing can be seen yet. If we really poach those people from Li's TV station in the future,

By then, TVB’s plate won’t be able to accommodate so many people.”

Cao Yunshang thought for a moment, understood what Chu Huan meant and said: "So you are not worried about people from Li's TV station poaching TVB. In fact, you can take advantage of this opportunity to clear out some people."

Chu Huan nodded and said: "I do have such an idea, but there is another solution."

Cao Yunshang looked at Chu Huan in confusion and asked, "What can I do?"

"That is to make the TVB plate bigger. Since the plate is a bit small now, let's make it bigger. Once it is bigger, it will naturally be able to accommodate so many people!"

Chu Huan rubbed Cao Yunshang's smooth back and spoke calmly.

Cao Yunshang became more and more suspicious. Xiangjiang is only so big, and the TV station's plate is only so big. Even with the current black and white images of Shaw Brothers, it is still within the visible range. She really can't think of any other way to make this

The plate is getting bigger.

Chu Huan looked at Cao Yunshang's suspicious eyes and said with a smile: "This matter is just an idea now. Only Li Xiaohe and Shao Yifu know. Whether it can be formed depends on the subsequent development, but the most important thing now is

We still have to continue singing this great drama!”

Cao Yunshang nodded, but still asked curiously: "What kind of plan is it?"

Chu Huan laughed and said: "The plan is..."

.

The next day!

As expected, major newspapers and media outlets in Hong Kong began to report on TVB's talent poaching war against Li TV, and there was only a small section introducing the film rating system and film festivals.

On the other side, Huang Xizhao was preparing for his exclusive interview, and at this time, Mai Fangxiong found Huang Xizhao and gave a painful speech.

"The male lead of "Big Sister and the Big Madman" didn't come to the company today either!"
