Treasure Island 1992, starting from the Four Little Heavenly Kings

The selection of era idols is in full swing.

Some people were eliminated, some were directly promoted, and some were pending, continued to perform in the second round, and finally successfully advanced.

Among these people is Edison Chen.

Originally, Chen Qiming thought that after being eliminated by him before, Edison Chen would be dissatisfied and make mistakes in the second round of performances (on purpose).

As a result, what he didn't expect was that Edison Chen actually performed very steadily and got a promotion spot in one fell swoop, becoming one of the seven-member team.

As the last contestant advanced, the 1998 Era Idol also ushered in its finale.

The seven people who were finally selected into the era idol group are:
From China, Luo Zhixiang, Edison Chen, Guo Pinchao and Qiao Zhenyu.

The rest are Hideaki Longzawa from Japan, Lee Minwoo from South Korea, and TAE from Thailand.

Overall, this result is not too surprising.

The strength of these people is obvious to all, not to say that they are much higher than other people in the show, but at this stage, they are the strongest.

Why did Chen Qiming go to such great lengths to become an idol of the times?
To make money of course.

As we all know, in later generations, idol groups are the easiest to make money.

So, he created this combination.

Therefore, after the era idol selection program ended, the plans for the era idol group did not stop immediately.

After the talent show ended, Pacific Entertainment, the management company of the era idol group, officially announced that it will launch a two-month era idol tour next week.

Well, Chen Qiming’s idea is very simple.

At this stage, the idols of the era are in full swing and this is the time when tickets are sold the most.

Instead of making an album for them right away, let’s start making them money right away.

Of course, Chen Qiming is not the kind of person who only knows how to make money and does not consider the future.

It can be said that he really loves the idols of the times. While he asked the company to arrange a tour for the idol groups of the times, he also prepared the songs for the group's first album.

In addition, he also asked Pacific Film and Television Company to prepare a movie script for the idol group of the era, intending for them to star together.

After preparing the songs of the idol groups of the era, Chen Qiming's attention to the idols of the era has come to an end.

After all, he has a lot of things to do of his own, and he can't always focus on the idol groups of the era.

You know, he paid enough attention to the idols of his time.

Think about Jay Chou, he has never paid so much attention to the leader of the next era.

Of course, the main reason is that Jay Chou has his own way and does not need to pay too much attention to him.

After gradually handing over the operation and arrangement of idols of the times to the company, Chen Qiming began to focus on ATV and film and television companies.

First of all, "My Date with a Zombie" is about to premiere.

As ATV's biggest drama this year, it is also a TV series that Chen Qiming stars in and produces after taking over ATV.

Both the outside world and ATV itself are very concerned about this project.

In fact, Chen Qiming himself is still under a lot of pressure.

It can be said that this drama has a huge investment, and it has put a lot of money on ATV.

If the ratings do not meet expectations, then in the next one or two years, ATV will basically not be able to produce large-scale productions.

There is no way, with Chen Qiming starring, the investment in the film will be frighteningly high.

What kind of celebrity is Chen Qiming now?
International superstar!
Even affected by the economic crisis, his salary in Asia has inevitably dropped a lot like others.

But the salary he got was still very high.

"My Date with a Zombie", his salary was 700,000 per episode.

For thirty-five episodes of the TV series, he alone took away nearly 25 million Hong Kong dollars.

Plus the filming requirements, special effects and other actors' salaries.

The direct investment in this drama is as high as HK$70 million.

This can almost be said to be the TV series with the largest investment in Hong Kong, Taiwan and even the mainland in so many years.

If this fails, it will not only put pressure on ATV's subsequent development, but even Chen Qiming will be affected to a certain extent.

Why was Chen Qiming able to earn as much as Jackie Chan in just a few years? It's not because he makes a lot of money.

In the past few years, all the movies he starred in have basically made a lot of money for investment companies.

Even "Green Snake", which was criticized by the audience as a bad movie, still made a lot of money when the income from other places and various discs were added up.

Having been successful, he naturally attracts the attention of investors.

It is no exaggeration to say that there is no company in Asia that does not want to invite Chen Qiming to star in a movie.

Japan's Tsuburaya Company even sent invitations more than once, wanting Chen Qiming to play Ultraman for them.

The other party once offered that as long as Chen Qiming goes, Tsuburaya is willing to build an Ultraman for him.

However, sometimes being too successful is not necessarily a good thing.

Because this means you cannot fail.

As soon as you fail, the credibility you have accumulated will instantly collapse.

Chen Qiming believes that as long as "My Date with a Zombie" has poor ratings, he will definitely be questioned.

Suggestions that he no longer has the ability to carry the box office, or that he is exaggerated, will follow.

Therefore, in order to prevent ATV from having financial difficulties in the next two years, and also to prevent its credibility from collapsing.

"A Date with a Zombie" leaves no room for error.

To ensure the success of this play.

A month before the show was released, ATV began a bombardment of publicity.

Chen Qiming has started large-scale roadshows in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and even Japan and South Korea.

In addition to promoting TV series.

Chen Qiming also started working with ATV executives to prepare the plan that Chen Qiming had formulated since he took office:

"Asian Television Festival".

For this award, ATV has made a lot of preparations.

Chen Qiming personally called many TV stations in Japan, South Korea and other countries.

In addition, many TV drama production companies that have become popular this year have received invitations from ATV.

In December, they will all come here to participate in the awards with their own company's TV series.

As for celebrities and the like, there is no need for Chen Qiming to take action.

Celebrities chase the spotlight.

ATV has such a big show, and reporters and media are indispensable. Actors who are a little bit motivated will not miss this opportunity.

Of course, some big-name figures definitely still need Chen Qiming to make a phone call in person.

For example, Jackie Chan, Andy Lau and others.

Anyway, to make this award a grand event.

ATV has invited almost all the famous actors and singers from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The purpose is to win this award at the Asian Festival in one fell swoop.

"Cross out Chen Ziqiang's name!"

ATV, Chen Qiming is reviewing the invitation list.

Among a bunch of familiar names, Chen Qiming saw the name of Jackie Chan's former agent.

Yes, ex-agent.

Not long ago, Chen Ziqiang and Jackie Chan officially broke up.

Without the title of Jackie Chan's agent, Chen Qiming no longer needs to give him any face.

What kind of rubbish, actually poaching his own corner openly and openly.
