Chapter 357 Talking
Author: Bai Lian Zi Ren
Huang Xizhao's worries did not last long. Bai Zirui gave him reassurance. He said: "I communicated with Mr. Xu Shixun, another shareholder and director of Li's TV Station, a few days ago. We have the same opinion.
We all believe that under your management in the past few years, the performance of Li TV Station has been very effective, and the ratings have been rising steadily, so I asked you to come to meet today, just as an investor, I want to hear what you, the director, think about the future of Li TV Station.
What do you think of the development?”
Huang Xizhao immediately calmed down in his heart. Although the young man speaking in front of him had a warm smile, he did not dare to look down upon him at all. He knew that this was the first test question he faced, and whether his answer could satisfy the other party was directly related to it.
Can he secure his position on the TV station?
Huang Xizhao calmed down and said: "Bai Sheng, the most proud thing about me as the director of the station in the past few years is that my colleagues in the station are very united. Only by working together can the performance of the station be better!
Of course, this does not mean that there is no internal competition. On the contrary, the competition within the TV station is becoming more and more fierce. But these competitions are healthy competitions. Everyone competes for creativity and ability. Whoever can produce good programs will be promoted!
"
Huang Xizhao looked at Bai Zirui who was listening carefully, paused and continued: "I think the current atmosphere of Li's TV station is very good, and there is no need to make big changes. Instead, we need to continue to increase investment. In the past two years, we have cooperated with TVB
To compete in the arena, you rely on producing a batch of excellent TV series.
However, the cost of self-made dramas is very high. Each TV series requires an investment of millions. A well-crafted TV series requires an investment of five to six million. As long as the investment funds can be guaranteed, I am confident that I can compete with TVB in the ratings.
Let’s have a showdown!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Jingli said: "Huang Sheng, based on the information our company has collected about TVB and Lili TV stations, you film about 20-30 new TV series every year. If calculated as 25 TV series, each year
The investment in the drama is 2 million, and the total investment is 50 million.
We plan an annual high-quality drama in the first and second half of the year, with a total budget of 20 million. In addition, there is a reserve fund of 5 million, and a budget of 10 million for outsourced dramas. Therefore, the total budget of the TV station for the whole year on TV dramas in the future will be 85 million.
Hong Kong dollars!”
These data are naturally not fabricated out of thin air, but are the results of a systematic analysis by the financial department of Dingtian Company. TVB’s total investment in filming TV series this year is about 75 million Hong Kong dollars. Judging from the increase in the past few years, next year
TVB’s investment in drama production will not exceed 80 million.
The total budget of RMB 80 million given by Xu Jingli for filming TV series is 25% higher than the investment of RMB 65 million by Li's TV station this year, which is basically the same as the investment of competitor TVB.
Xu Jingli continued: "Huang Sheng, you don't need to worry about the TV station's lack of funds at all. The company will soon hold a shareholders' meeting to discuss the issue of capital expansion.
The scale of the fund-raising this time will be between 150 million and 200 million Hong Kong dollars. In addition to the newly invested funds being used to repay part of the debt that is about to mature, the rest will be used for the operation of the TV station!"
Huang Xizhao nodded happily, and Bai Zirui asked seemingly casually: "Huang Sheng, at the beginning of this year, the Hong Kong Economic Development Consultative Committee submitted a joint letter to the Governor of Hong Kong, urging the governments of China and Johnston to expedite
Convene negotiations on the issue of the future ownership of Hong Kong! At that time, the entire public opinion in Hong Kong was very heated about this matter. I wonder what your views are on the issue of the future ownership of Hong Kong?"
Huang Xizhao's heart skipped a beat. He felt that this question was more important than the previous one. He thought that Bai Sheng came from the mainland to study in Xiangjiang, and he seemed to have guessed Bai Sheng's purpose of acquiring Li's TV station.
As long as the governments of China and the Kingdom of John start negotiations on the future ownership of Hong Kong, as the boss of one of the only two TV stations in Hong Kong, he can sit firmly on Diaoyutai and accept the efforts of both parties to win over him. He is from mainland China, and he can
Help the Chinese government guide public opinion.
Huang Xizhao thought for a moment and said thoughtfully: "Bai Sheng, the focus of the issue of the ownership of Xiangjiang is that the New Territories lease is about to expire in 1997. Although the Chinese government has never recognized the legality of a series of unequal treaties signed between the John Kingdom and the Manchu Qing government
Sex, but in disguise, it acquiesces to the world game rules set by the John Kingdom in the era of hegemony.
The New Territories are leased land and will definitely be returned to China after expiration in 1997. This is the consensus reached by the government and the public in John State decades ago. In the late 1940s, after Grantham became the governor of Xiangjiang, he decisively overthrew his predecessor.
The Hong Kong Governor's 'Yang Muki Plan'.
He once clearly said, "The future ownership of Xiangjiang is a political issue, either as a colony of the John Kingdom or as part of the Guangdong Province of the Chinese Kingdom."
After nearly 150 years of colonial rule by the John Kingdom, especially the thirty years of development after World War II, the New Territories have long been an integral part of Hong Kong. As long as the Chinese government can withstand the pressure of the John Kingdom, it will insist on not renewing the lease of the New Territories.
, we can take back the entire Hong Kong including Kowloon and Hong Kong Island at once!"
Bai Zirui couldn't help but look at Huang Xizhao with admiration. His analysis was completely correct. So he continued to ask: "Huang Sheng, how do you think the Chinese government will manage Xiangjiang after Xiangjiang belongs to the Huaxia Kingdom?"
Huang Xizhao frowned when he heard this, scratched his head and said: "Bai Sheng, I think there are two possibilities. One possibility is to maintain the status quo of Xiangjiang unchanged, and the other possibility is to overthrow the current system of Xiangjiang and re-plan according to the mainland system!
"
Bai Zirui asked: "Huang Sheng, which policy do you think is more likely to be adopted by mainland China?"
Huang Xizhao thought for a moment and replied solemnly: "Bai Sheng, I think that if the mainland government does not want to cause chaos and collapse of the entire Hong Kong society, it should adopt the first method, first maintain the current system in Hong Kong, and then slowly change it.
!”
This is the limitation of Hong Kong people in this era. Most Hong Kong people believe that the mainland government will definitely implement the mainland system after taking back Hong Kong. Even though the government later repeatedly emphasized that the policy of "one country, two systems, Hong Kong people governing Hong Kong" will not waver for a hundred years, but
After China and John signed an agreement on the future ownership of Hong Kong, the large-scale immigration wave was still unstoppable.
Most of those Hong Kong people who immigrated were not happy with their lives abroad, so there was another wave of return waves around 1997. But this time and again, it has disrupted the entire economic development pattern of Hong Kong.
Xiangjiang missed the best opportunity for industrial reform and upgrading, so that the subsequent economy of Xiangjiang could only be supported by the infusion of policies from the mainland.
Bai Zirui smiled and said: "Huang Sheng, in my opinion, the best way to govern Hong Kong in the future is 'one country, two systems, Hong Kong people governing Hong Kong'. How can we Chinese people with Yan and Huang blood agree with Hong Kong continuing to be governed by John Guiguo?"
If colonial rule continues, the Chinese government should completely take back the sovereignty of Xiangjiang!"
