Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

The next night, the night before New Year's Eve.

Lin Baicheng came to Asia Television and went to the Spring Festival Gala recording scene accompanied by Huang Xizhao and other senior officials.

The so-called Spring Festival Gala is a concept proposed by Lin Baicheng. It will be broadcast live starting at 8 o'clock on New Year's Eve tomorrow. The programs broadcast include sketches, singing, dancing, acrobatics, opera, etc., which are based on the Spring Festival Gala before the rebirth.

Asia Television's predecessor, Li's Television, did not have the concept of the Spring Festival Gala. Lin Baicheng informed Huang Xizhao and other senior officials of his ideas early, so Asia Television began preparations for the Spring Festival Gala tomorrow night early.

This is recording tonight. After recording, it does not mean that it will be broadcast directly tomorrow night. It will still be live broadcast tomorrow night. However, if a live broadcast accident occurs, the recorded program will be used instead, so that there will be no live broadcast accident.

When Lin Baicheng and others arrived, an opera program, also known as Cantonese opera, was being performed on the stage. It was actually similar to Peking opera, except that the singing method, intonation, repertoire, etc. were slightly different, but the general form was still the same.

Below the stage are many guest seats, but it is recording now, so although they are full of people, they are all TV station staff. When the live broadcast happens tomorrow, the only people sitting here will be the invited guests.

After watching for a while, Lin Baicheng said to Huang Xizhao behind him on the right: "Manager Huang, is there no problem with the party tomorrow night?"

Huang Xizhao immediately said: "Don't worry, Mr. Lin. Although this is our first time to hold this kind of party and we have no experience, but because of this, we have rehearsed many times and recorded the program in advance, so we will broadcast it live tomorrow night There is a high probability that there will be no problem.”

Lin Baicheng nodded and reminded: "Tomorrow night is a live broadcast. Even if something goes wrong during the live broadcast, it doesn't matter. After all, the show is a human performance, and everyone may make mistakes. The important thing is not to panic after making a mistake, and record it as soon as possible." Good programs will be replaced. Anyway, it is live broadcast, but there is a five-minute delay, which is enough for the TV station staff to react."

Huang Xizhao immediately said: "I have explained all these, Mr. Lin, don't worry."

"Have all the guests been invited?"

Lin Baicheng asked.

Huang Xizhao responded: "We have sent out invitations and received replies. Guests who are unable to attend tomorrow night have all been replaced one by one by others."

"This is the first time that the Spring Festival Gala is held this year. It must be done well. It will be held every year in the future, so you must not make mistakes the first time." Lin Baicheng reminded again.

"We will definitely do a good job!"

Although there was some pressure, Huang Xizhao still responded solemnly.

Lin Baicheng and others watched the scene for a long time. Because of many rehearsals, there were no problems during the recording. However, today is a recording and tomorrow will be a live broadcast. The guests in the guest seats are real guests instead of TV station staff, so the pressure on the performers is different. People with a slightly worse mentality may be able to Something went wrong.

And this is why it is necessary to record the program in advance. It is precisely because the performers may have problems during the live broadcast tomorrow that it must be recorded in advance. When the time comes, recording will be used instead of live broadcast, and the TV station will not have to show it in front of the people of Hong Kong. Shame on you.

The recording here was going to be recorded very late. Of course, Lin Baicheng couldn't stay until the end of the recording before leaving. He stayed for more than half an hour and then left.

At about seven o'clock the next night, all five members of Lin Baicheng's family came to Asia Television together. The whole family will watch the live broadcast of the ATV Spring Festival Gala tonight.

"Mr. Lin!"

Huo Zhenting greeted the Lin Baicheng family who arrived.

Lin Baicheng was not surprised to see him. He personally called and invited Huo Yingdong to come, but Huo Yingdong declined, saying that he would send Huo Zhenting to attend the Spring Festival Gala. As for why there is only Fok Zhenting but not Zhu Linlin, it is because Zhu Linlin is pregnant and it is inconvenient to come to the show so late.

Guo Henian and Bao Yugang did not come. Among them, Bao Yugang sent his second son-in-law Wu Guanzheng and his wife, whom Lin Baicheng was familiar with, to attend the Spring Festival party. Guo Henian even returned to Malaysia to celebrate the New Year, but he also said that he would send his eldest son Guo Kongchen.

Huo Yingdong and others were either unable to attend the Spring Festival Gala or did not want to show up, but they all gave Lin Baicheng face and sent their younger generation family members to go.

After all, this was not a party held by Lin Baicheng to invite them to attend, it was just a TV program. If they didn't come, Lin Baicheng wouldn't think that they were not giving him face. It was good that they sent juniors to come.

Except for tycoons with better connections such as Bao Yugang, Lin Baicheng has not extended invitations to other wealthy families who are just acquaintances. Except for some of the guests tonight who are senior executives of Lin Baicheng's various companies, most of the rest are with Lin Baicheng's companies. The boss or senior executive of the company with which you have business dealings.

Then there were the artists. All the leading stars from the TV station came, as did Hong Jinbao, Xu Guangjie and others who cooperated with Star Pictures.

Before the show started at eight o'clock, many people greeted Lin Baicheng after his arrival, and he responded to them all. Although this is tiring, there is no need to act arrogant, as that will ruin your reputation.

At eight o'clock, ATV's Spring Festival Gala officially started.

The first program of the ATV Spring Festival Gala was singing. On the stage was Zhang Guorong, an actor and singer that ATV focuses on training.

In 1978, Zhang Guorong participated in many TV series, although most of them were second and third supporting roles, as well as a few supporting roles, and once he was one of the multiple starring roles. He never played a single male lead, mainly His acting skills still need to be trained.

On the singing side, Zhang Guorong was signed to Asia Star Records, a subsidiary of Asia Television. With the help of the company's resources, he released an album. Although it didn't become a big hit, the response was okay. At least the album released made the record company a small profit. Rather than losing money.

Even if Zhang Guorong is a superstar in Lin Baicheng's impression, it is not yet the 1980s, so Zhang Guorong still has a lot to learn. It does not mean that having the resources to support him will definitely make him famous.

Tonight, artists such as Zhang Guorong, who are highly praised by the TV station, will take the stage and arrange different programs according to the characteristics of each artist.

For example, Zheng Wenya, the 1978 Miss Asia champion, has always been the target of Asian TV's promotion in 1978. Her resources are no less than Zhang Guorong's, mainly to increase the popularity of Miss Asia after promoting her.

Tonight, Zheng Wenya also took the stage. She participated in a sketch with other artists, and she was also one of the starring actors.

Tonight's ATV Spring Festival Gala, Lin Baicheng is not sure whether it will be a success or not, because there is no way to know what the ratings are now, but regardless of whether it is a success or not, the ATV Spring Festival Gala will continue to be held next year.

But for Lin Baicheng now, everything else should be put aside. The most important thing is to enjoy the various programs on the stage.
