Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 58 Buy One Get One Free
Chen Pak Keung was born in a wealthy businessman family in Hong Kong Island in 1958. He loved music since he was a child and also played a guest role in the "Winner Band". Later, his father sent him to the San Francisco Conservatory of Music in the United States for further studies. He returned to Hong Kong Island last year due to family matters.

At this time, he also had a certain reputation in the music circle, but he had not yet signed with a record company.

Today he went out to eat with his friends, and unexpectedly ran into Zhang Guorong.

Because their English names are both Danny, and they are very similar in life experience, taste, personality, etc. The biggest difference may be that one is shy and introverted, while the other is cheerful and lively.

But what is surprising is that the introverted Chen Baiqiang was the one who took the initiative to say hello to Leslie Cheung!
"Hello! My name is Danny too!"

Zhang Guorong shook hands with the other party in confusion.

"I know, that's why my friend said we look alike!"

Looking at this beautiful boy who appeared out of nowhere, Zhang Guorong was puzzled, but also felt a little fond of him.

Fate, it's so wonderful!

"That's great. Let's have tea together some other time?"

Zhang Guorong always likes to make friends, but when he suddenly met someone so attractive, he naturally didn't let him go!

"Okay!"

After simply saying hello, Zhang Guorong was ready to leave.

Several people walked out of the door, and Zhang Guorong said to Li Wannian: "Thank you, I will seriously consider it!"

"Looking forward to your reply!"

Seeing Zhang Guorong driving away, Tsui Hark said to Li Wannian: "Mr. Li, where are we going now?"

"Where to go? Of course I'm going back!"

After saying that, Li Wannian turned around and walked towards the tea restaurant.

"Go back? Did you forget something?"

Tsui Hark scratched his head in confusion, and then followed Li Wannian into the tea restaurant again.

"Hi, Danny!"

Li Wannian came to Chen Baiqiang and took the initiative to greet him.

"Hello?"

Chen Baiqiang looked at the young man who had just left with Zhang Guorong and came to him again, and he was also very confused.

"Are you interested in filming a TV series?"

"Huh? Are you looking for me to act in a TV series?"

At present, Chen Baiqiang is just a young singer who has just started filming. He has never filmed a TV series. When Li Wannian asked this, he thought he heard it wrong.

"That's right, he and I were talking about this TV series just now!"

"Does he want to act too?"

Hearing that Leslie Cheung was going to participate in the show, Chen Boqiang was immediately interested.

"Of course!"

Although Zhang Guorong has not agreed yet, Li Wannian doesn't mind lending his name first. Anyway, the two of them haven't left their contact information just now. As long as Zhang Guorong is dealt with before they meet again, he will not be lying!

"Really? That's great! I can participate. By the way, which TV station are you from?"

After hearing that Leslie Cheung also wanted to film this TV series, Chen Boqiang agreed without saying a word. It was not easy at all.

So, Li Wannian sat at the same table as Chen Baiqiang, and then informed them of the details of the TV series one by one.

After learning that Li Wannian was a member of Jiayi TV station and was also a talented cartoonist, Chen Baiqiang had no problem and readily decided to join Jiayi and participate in TV series.

Li Wannian never expected that he was looking for Leslie Cheung to play the male lead, but instead found Chen Boqiang to play the male lead.Is this buy one get one free?

When leaving, Li Wannian specifically told Chen Baiqiang: "Brother Guorong is also involved in the issue of contract termination, so please keep it secret!"

"I understand, don't worry! I won't tell anyone!"

Upon hearing that there was an inside story, Chen Baiqiang nodded repeatedly.

"Including Brother Guorong, don't tell him!"

"Huh? Oh! I understand! I promise not to tell!"

The silly Chen Baiqiang, seeing Li Wannian's mysterious look, immediately realized that the matter was of great importance, so he hurriedly said.

Two days later, Li Wanshui's office.

"So, Zhang Guorong finally agreed?"

Li Wanshui asked while making tea for Li Wannian.

"Of course, I heard that it was his mentor Li Xiaotian who persuaded him to leave! In addition, he heard that Chen Baiqiang was also participating, so he agreed!"

That's right, Li Wannian not only loaned Zhang Guorong to Chen Baiqiang, but also loaned Chen Baiqiang to Zhang Guorong.

Anyway, now that both of them have agreed, he is not lying!

Just say they can't act, right?

"So, you plan to choose two singers as the male leads in this TV series?"

"Isn't it okay if you look pretty?"

Hearing what Li Wannian said, Li Wanshui couldn't help but shook his head.

Li Wanshui is not very optimistic about this "Hong Kong Island Love Story".

Among the four leading actors, except for Mi Feng, the others are all newcomers and have little experience. How can such a TV series with a small investment compete with TVB and Li's TV stations that are full of superstars?

But fortunately, the investment in this TV series is not large, and it is related to the new comics published by the magazine. Generally speaking, even if it does not make money, it does not lose money. It can be regarded as using the TV station’s money to help the magazine’s new comics. The magazine is advertising!

What's more, the creative techniques and marketing model of this TV series are worth learning from Li Wanshui. Whether it is joint marketing with other departments, advertising placement, or concept, they are all worthy of Li Wanshui's deep exploration.

As for the TV station, there was quite a bit of criticism about Li Wannian's actions at this time. After all, a student who has not yet graduated can take over the production power, which has attracted the jealousy of many people.

However, overall, the situation is still controllable!

After all, compared to Li Wannian's "playing with votes" behavior, the reorganization of the TV station is the top priority, which is related to the jobs of most people.

After reorganization, the TV station has established a total of 12 departments, namely: Administration Department, Finance Department, Planning Department, Program Department, Production Department, Children's Animation Department, News and Public Affairs Department, Engineering Department, Production and Allocation Department, Artist Affairs Department Department and External Affairs Department, Publicity Department, and Marketing Department.

At present, the reorganization is nearing completion, and related TV series and new programs are also being prepared intensively.

In terms of TV series, in addition to Li Wannian's "Hong Kong Island Love Story", there are also two newly launched TV series, namely: "The Sinner" starring Luo Changlin, Wen Xueer, and Yang Panpan, and "Unfortunate" starring Bai Biao, Wei Qiuhua, and Zheng Yuling. Wealth of Righteousness".

It can be seen that this time, the new TV series launched by Jiayi TV has abandoned the popular costume drama.

The main reason for this is that the copyright of costume dramas is expensive, the investment is large, there is no way to place advertisements, and it is very unfashionable.

And Jiayi now has limited funds, so it can only choose to use small to make a big difference!

In terms of variety shows, in addition to "Good Vision" and "Hello Night Homecoming", two new programs were launched, "Who is a Millionaire" and "Hundred Forums", which placed the education required by Jiayi period.

Then there are children's animations. In addition to the two animations "Pokémon" and "Chinese Master Chef", there is also a children's program specifically for children, "Animation City" and "Little Dragon Club".

After everything is ready, all we have to do is wait for the TV station's revision to be officially completed!
