Chapter 235 Funding Dilemma

“Mr. Zhang.”

“Boss Zhang.”

"Zhang Sheng..."

The scene became lively.

Zhang Guobin showed a smile, waved his hand, and said with satisfaction: "That's right... From now on, I will be colleagues with everyone. If ATV wants to be prosperous, it will depend on everyone's efforts."

The Chief-In-Charge of the Director Department and the Artists Department were sitting at three tables, all nodded: "Mr. Zhang is staying at ATV, and ATV colleagues are happy."

Target Boy He gracefully took off his hat, revealing a dent next to his head.

He blew lightly at the black hat, like magic, and the ATV executives laughed even more happily.

The three round tables were already filled with appetizers and drinks, and Jiang Bo was still serving dishes with the waiter.

Director of the program department, Ye Jiabao took the initiative to pour the red wine, raised the glass with both hands, and said, "Mr. Zhang."

"I toast you."

"many thanks." Zhang Guobin raised the red wine, sat on the chair, and responded with a smile.

"Zhang Sheng."

"I love your movies."

The atmosphere became more and more lively.

Zhang Guobin did not refuse the invitation of the executives.

Tonight, I invite all ATV executives to come and drink. It is to inspect a wave of new company subordinates and recognize each other as familiar faces.

After a few rounds of drinking, he stood up and introduced a left and right hands beside him: "This is the former TVB program producer, Mr. Li Dawei."

"Next week, Li Dawei. Before the meeting, I will go to ATV as the interim president, responsible for the production of several programs and TV series."

Li Dawei is dressed in a suit and has a capable expression.

"Good evening everyone, please take care of me in the future."

"Mr. Li, good evening."

"Director Li, I have long admired my name."

p>

Since joining DreamWorks, Li Dawei has become famous in Hong Kong. Everyone in the TV station recognizes him. He is the president of ATV, and there is no fault in any aspect.

"Please rest assured, ATV's strategy will not change this year. You can perform your duties. Mr. Li is only responsible for a few works, and the rest will not interfere at all."

The accounts are managed by a professional accounting firm, so there will be no problem.

ATV has fought back and forth with TVB in history, but the end result was that the license could not be renewed, and it was acquired and restructured. Changing the strategy several times, a large enterprise changing the owner and then changing the development decision, is actually very prone to problems.

It is normal for business owners to change strategies and install confidants in order to ensure their interests, but Zhang Guobin has a gun behind him, so he is not worried about the disobedience of the company management below. Therefore, he decided not to change Qiu Degeng's business plan for the time being. In fact, Qiu Degeng's business plan is no problem. That batch of advanced camera equipment will definitely be used.

The management inside ATV is even more talented. This is the old rival of TVB, and the top TV producers in Hong Kong. The artists are either in TVB or ATV.

For example, Ye Family Treasure of the program department, who was ordered in crisis in 1986, produced "Mr. Asia", the first male beauty pageant in Chinese to block the flag, and the ratings soared, making ATV turn losses into profits that year, and the company's net profit was 7.1 million Hong Kong dollars .

Zhang Guobin won't destroy the Great Wall to dismiss them, they will all win good relations.

The Asian amateur singer tournament held by ATV in 1981 signed a large number of famous artists such as Zhang Pirong, Mao Shunjun, Shao Yinyin and Yu Sally.

Unfortunately, ATV's management is chaotic, coupled with TVB's vigorous poaching, many celebrities have left ATV, and now ATV's record company, the program group lacks a large number of artists.

This is TVB's advantage and ATV's disadvantage.

Zhang Guobin gaze as if a torch , I understand in my heart.

After drinking and having a meal with the Chief-In-Charge of each department, he sent a big red envelope to each of them, and sent everyone away enthusiastically. Many people who came by car went back to the house on their own, and those who didn’t have a car sent them by car. When I got to the door, I was very sympathetic to my subordinates.

Li Dawei stayed with Big Boss.

"Zhang Sheng."

"They seem to be very afraid of you."

Zhang Guobin didn't care, he chuckled and looked back: "You were not surprised at first. Curcuma?"

"It's alright, everyone is supporting the family with water."

"It's OK to work together for a few years."

 …

"It seems that Mr. Zhang has no Azure Dragon on his left hand, no White Tiger on his right hand, no Jianglong tattoo on his neck, and no Guan Gong on his back. It's not as evil as what they wear?"

"The red envelope is quite big!"

"It's over, I can't make false accounts in the future, it is said that Qiu Boss..."

A group of executives drove home and touched the red envelope in their hands, and they were always in a good mood. is pleasant.

After having a late-night snack with Big Boss, they roughly have a preliminary understanding of Big Boss. The most important thing is that, through Big Boss's decision-making, they can vaguely know that Big Boss is not a random man. .

ATV is robust.

......

"This "Top Gun Senior Sister" was my first shot in ATV."

"Take a good shot."

Zhang Guobin sat in the Pingzhi car, sent Li Dawei back to the house, handed him a copy, and the two exchanged opinions on the operation of the TV station.

"I've read this script, it's very interesting, and it will definitely be popular." Li Dawei is not blindly confident in Mr. Zhang, but after reading the script carefully, he answered based on his analysis of the market .

That's how TV stations operate. First create a popular series and raise the ratings of the series. Other programs will naturally be the tide rises, the boat floats.

“In addition, ATV itself has plans to hold an artist training class this year, but due to the lack of ATV funds, it will be suspended after the preliminary preparations are completed. It is a pity to suspend it like this.”

“ You ask the people in the artist department to officially start publicity, and I will give a sum to support ATV."

"Mr. Zhang, this is good news, the whole ATV will support you." It is a loss of money, but cultivating artists in the later stage is a huge asset. ATV had this plan before, and naturally it could not stop. If it had its own artist training class, ATV could not continue to fight with TVB. History started in ATV in 1983. In one artist training class, the artists who graduated that year included Huang Qiusheng, He Jiajin, Ye Yuping, Mai Cuixian and the others.

"I can't make ATV worse and worse, and sell it in a few years, right?" Zhang Guobin jokingly said.

"I believe that ATV will do better and better." Li Dawei is full of confidence.

"The TV station is a propaganda outlet. It's not easy for me to get ATV. If I switch to companies like Yongsheng, I'm afraid that police officers will come to investigate every month, and it will be difficult for the TV station to renew the contract. There is a difference in this year. Come and entertain me, you can say anything after this year, but even if you resist the pressure this year, ATV will not be able to report black and white comments. All public opinion news is objective and rational. If there is any problem in this area, I will be the first to take it. You are guilty."

This is also one of the reasons why Zhang Guobin sent Li Dawei as a confidant to ATV.

In the past, the whole ATV had a pro-British atmosphere, and many news crossed the line. Now it is natural to change the style when changing bosses. The deep-seated reason for being able to mix well is to stand in a good team.

Mr. Shao's teaching buildings are not built for nothing, and Zhang Guobin's investment in factories in the mainland is not only money.

"I understand this point, and I must perform my duties well." Li Dawei solemnly nodded.

This is Big Boss's three-man rule.

"In addition, if the artist training class is held, hehe, I will definitely dig up TVB newcomers. The TVB contract is too harsh. Let's relax a little bit, and a large number of newcomers will sign up." Li Dawei smiled. .

"Yes, as expected of someone who has worked in TVB." Zhang Guobin applauded.

"The only thing left is to rectify ATV's record company."

Zhang Guobin thought to himself.

"Not enough money!"

Li Dawei's move to transfer to ATV involves a lot of money, including investing in the production funds of ATV programs and acquiring the remaining ATV stocks Otherwise, with the increase in ATV ratings, the OTC stocks will only get higher and higher, because everyone knows that there is a proprietor taking over.

He can't give up ATV's record company, artist training, and then dig a director to take over "Happy Ghost", "Province and Hong Kong Flag Soldier", "500 Million Inspector" series...

I'm dying of poverty.

Zhang Guobin instructed to go directly to Xinyicheng to recruit Huang Baiming, and to TVB to recruit Liu Guochang, who had just emerged, so as to strengthen the director team of DreamWorks.

Zhang Guobin first experienced the perverted pleasure of being worth more than one billion but worrying about money, it was difficult!

Really TM!

The landlord has no surplus.

“Where should I go to get money?”

Zhang Guobin looked sad.

Pingzhi car sent Lai Dawei to Tsim Sha Tsui. Lai Dawei bought a villa in Tsim Sha Tsui last year, and now he is also a great talent with shotguns and cannons.

Li Chenghao looked at the rearview mirror and brooded alone, opened his mouth and asked, "Boss, are you not happy with the new company?"

"Hi, doing business, I want money."

"I really want to use silver paper to smash people and throw a lot of stars back, but a lot of money is either flowing or stockpiling ammunition, so I can't beat it."

"I don't have the money to pay liquidated damages to my favorite stars." If there are enough artists, ATV will have enough teams, and Boss Zhang will have enough books to earn enough money. Such an excellent circle of conscience , but suffers from the family's great business and can't extract the surplus food.

"Small problem."

"Brother Bin!"

Li Chenghao solemnly vowed .

"I'll order more than a dozen brothers, and I'll help you take a walk on Queen's Road tomorrow. HSBC, Standard Chartered, you can choose, if you need more, just talk!"

"Anyway, I'm here. HSBC didn't save the money."

Zhang Guobin glanced back at him and scolded: "Fujie, you didn't save! I did!"

"They knew it was you. To withdraw money?"

"Citigroup, you never saved it?"

......

A week later, Zhang Guobin changed the name of ATV's record company to "" "Asian Star", Huang Baiming, as one of the three giants of Art City, received an invitation from DreamWorks through Wu Yusen, and his heart was moved.

Because his shareholding ratio in Xinyicheng is the lowest among the Big Three, and because the "Happy Ghost" series was acquired by DreamWorks, Huang Baiming independently directed a "Small Lives", he No longer qualified to direct films independently, he has been working on Mai Jia's "Best Partner". It is rumored that the three giants of Xinyicheng have long been inseparable.

"Bai Ming, this is a rare opportunity." Wu Yusen met with Huang Baiming in private again, he understood it rationally, and moved with emotion: "Mr. Zhang values you very much, and promised to take over the "Happy Ghost" series for you... ”
