Reborn 80s

Chapter 357 The ATV Getting Better

At this time, the TV station has not yet discovered the fact that the majority of TV viewers are women.

No, during the day, the people who watch TV are mainly women.

After all, during the day, most men have to work to make money, but many women do housework at home to take care of children and the elderly.

There is a clear division of labor between the outside and the inside.

As a market-oriented TV station, ATV naturally has to study the market.

During prime program time (18:30-22:00, the time period with the highest ratings of the day), ATV naturally broadcasts its best TV dramas, variety shows and news.

The best TV dramas are in the prime time, and the second-tier TV dramas are broadcast in other program time slots.

The two channels of ATV have now achieved 24-hour non-stop broadcasting.

Of course, maintenance will still be carried out.

"ATV has developed well recently, and you have contributed a lot."

Before Meta Investment entered ATV, ATV was oriented towards Xiangjiang TV stations in terms of market positioning.

What is the population of Xiangjiang?

Just a few million.

Millions of people just watch ATV's programs, so the upper limit of ATV's development has been fixed.

When ATV moved its market to cover the entire Southeast Asia and mainland China, the situation changed fundamentally.

The first is that there is a higher cleaning potential to be tapped.

Of course, all this is thanks to the Asia-[-] satellite.

The Asia-5 satellite was officially launched in May, and then ATV was officially launched on the satellite.

In the whole of Asia, there are not many satellite TV stations now.

In fact, there are not many satellite TV stations in the world at this time.

AsiaSat Corporation owns the ownership and operation of Asia-[-] Satellite, and Asia-[-] Satellite is naturally not only able to support the satellite signal of one TV station.

The transponder system of the Asia-24 satellite has 36 C-band transponders with a bandwidth of 1200 MHz, and each transponder can serve as a TV line or [-] one-way voice channel communication forwarding services.

In other words, AsiaSat-24 can theoretically provide satellite services for [-] channels.

Asia Satellite Company could not find so many TV stations to be launched.

Wei Hongning rubbed his hands: "The boss praised it. ATV can develop so well. It's all because of the boss's foresight and the efforts of the people below. I didn't do anything."

Wei Hongning knew very well that he was able to sit firmly in the position of ATV director, not because of how good he was, but because of Chen Huaiqing's trust.

Wei Hongning resolutely implemented Chen Huaiqing's request.

Many of Chen Huaiqing's requests belonged to a general direction. Wei Hongning couldn't grasp it by himself, so he left the matter to the people below.

Compared with those strong men, Wei Hongning's ability is definitely inferior, and he can only be regarded as second-rate.

However, he has a clear self-awareness.

It is very clear that as long as the things Chen Huaiqing explained are done well, then Chen Huaiqing will not treat himself badly.

Chen Huaiqing did not have the habit of treating his subordinates badly. He needed the people below to work hard for him. Naturally, he gave enough in terms of remuneration.

Mistakes will definitely be punished, but achievements must also be rewarded.

Rewards and punishments are clear!

Chen Huaiqing knew Wei Hongning's character, being obedient was undoubtedly his greatest strength.

"Don't stand, sit down and talk."

Sitting on the sofa, Chen Huaiqing took a sip from his teacup, "Do you have any plans to become a star at TVB?"

Wei Hongning: "I haven't heard that TVB has any plans to become a star."

ATV and TVB have been fighting in Xiangjiang for so many years, and now ATV has jumped out of Xiangjiang to look forward to the whole of Asia.

And how will TVB choose?
Chen Huaiqing frowned slightly: "It seems that TVB is still waiting and watching!"

According to TVB's stingy nature, it is a bit embarrassing to want to be a star.

If you go to the satellite, the satellite fee is a lot of money.

Besides, who doesn't know that Asia Satellite Company is owned by Meta Investment, and ATV is also fully controlled by Meta Investment.

It is a big trend for TV stations to have stars in the future. If TVB does not have stars, it means that it will be positioned in Xiangjiang.

To be honest, according to Xiangjiang's market, it is no problem to support a TV station.

However, when a company has been stagnant, the company will also become old and faltering.

Chen Huaiqing thought about the decline of TVB in the future. When he decided to only make a splash in the Xiangjiang market, he was doomed not to keep up with the times.

Chen Huaiqing shook his head lightly: "As an old rival, TVB still has some regrets for not making progress."

Because of the competition between ATV and TVB, it was the continuous innovation and development of Hong Kong's TV programs in the past few years.

But when this kind of competition ends and the family becomes the only one...

If a person wants to improve, it is always good to have a competitor beside him, so that he can see his shortcomings and the direction of his efforts.

"After all, Uncle Six is ​​already 80 years old."

At the age of 80, for the vast majority of people, both feet have stepped into the coffin, and they are almost lying in it.

"As far as his body is concerned, if he lives another 20 years, there will be no problem at all."

However, the 80-year-old is quite stubborn in many things.

Accepting new things is also slower than young people.

Chen Huaiqing: "Let's not talk about this for now. What happened to the cooperation with CCTV to film Romance of the Three Kingdoms?"

Now ATV does not shoot TV dramas by itself, but will also invest in the shooting of some TV dramas.

After the separation of ATV's production and broadcasting, it suddenly activated Xiangjiang Film and Television Company's desire to enter the TV drama market.

Now Xiangjiang's movies are all shot at a very fast speed. A movie in more than ten days is simply...

I don't know what to say.

The quick shooters one by one seem to have produced some high-quality videos.

Anyway, the output of Xiangjiang movies is quite high now.

But the market is indeed growing, but the production volume of products is greater than the growth of the market size, so what will happen?
Some films may have made money a few years ago, but now they can barely keep their capital or even lose money.

Of course, some movies are not made to make money.

There are many various associations here in Xiangjiang, so there is a lot of black money.

The box office of a movie can be faked. Originally, the box office was only 100, but it was directly made into [-] million.

In it, everyone has something to earn, and they are doing some things in a tacit understanding.

For serious film and television companies, the competition in the film market is too fierce, so it is quite normal to switch to TV dramas.

Compared with the particularity of movies, shooting TV series does not need to be so particular.

ATV has achieved quite good results after the separation of production and broadcasting, but TVB has not followed up.

It's a selfie TV series that continues.

Compared with purchasing TV series, shooting TV series by yourself is more controllable in terms of TV series costs.

In terms of cost, ATV's outsourced TV dramas are indeed much higher than shooting their own TV dramas.

People also have to make money.

However, ATV's external purchase of dramas has improved the overall quality of TV dramas broadcast by ATV.

ATV's ratings are also steadily improving.
