Shao Yifu was currently sipping tea in the house that he had lived in for dozens of years. The tea was a very precious Dragon Well, and it filled the hall with a faint fragrance. Only, Shao Yifu was not as satisfied as he was when tasting tea. Instead, there was a trace of worry on his face.
If it was someone who was familiar with Shao Yifu, they would definitely be very surprised to see his expression right now.
As the highest decision maker for the television industry's aircraft carrier, Wireless Television Limited, which had dominated the television industry for dozens of years, Shao Yifu had always been calm and collected towards any opponent. He had never been afraid of any difficulties or setbacks.
Fang Yihua walked over and supported his back, "What's the matter, are you still thinking about the Asia Television Limited? "Forget it, those are just unruly bastards. It's not good for them to stay behind with us."
She was talking about the Li Family Tree before, when it brought a group of artistes and staff to jump into the Asia Television Limited. There were hundreds of artistes under the Wireless Television Limited tree, and if you added in the staff, there were more than a thousand employees of the television stations.
However, many of these employees are usually unimportant people who can be recruited from outside, such as extras who don't have a fixed cast.
And although the Li Family Tree had only taken away less than a hundred people, many of them were either first-or second-tier artistes who were very important to wireless and staff with very strong working abilities. That was why it could be said that they had poached a fifth of wireless talent resources.
Shao Yifu raised his shaggy and scrawny hands, and said with his old voice: "I'm not worried about that. After those artists leave, there will be others that can be groomed, and the production workers behind the scenes can also be recruited from the outside. Even I can get a few more teachers from the American side.
However, what I'm worried about is that after this Asia Television Limited change hands, I'm afraid it won't be as easy to deal with as before. "
"Even if it's hard to deal with, we don't need to be afraid." Fang Yihua said: "Right now in Hong Kong, more than half of us are a stable, wireless spectator. As for the Asia Television Limited, they have changed owners a few times, and after changing policies, they will not change."
Shao Yifu slowly shook his head, "No, this time I have an intuition, our Asia Television Limited will become ever so difficult to deal with, and we, Wireless, will soon encounter an unprecedented challenge.
Although our Asia Television Limited has not been revealed to the outside world as to what plans they have, I know that the moment they make a move, their offensive would be like stormy seas and they will be extremely fierce! "
He looked up at the ceiling, exhaled, and said, "That year, Lin Baixin bought the Asia Television Limited, and even said he wanted to compete against me in the television industry.
But I've never been afraid of that guy, Lin Baixin, who is very talented in other business fields, but he doesn't have the ability to fight me in this television industry.
"However, this time is different. Although the owner of 'Polaris' doesn't know who he is, I feel that he will become a formidable opponent that I have never met before in my life!"
Hearing Shao Yifu's words, Fang Yihua was a little surprised. Even though Shao Yifu was already older, his ambition had never decreased, and he was a fierce lion that no one dared to underestimate.
But at this moment, Fang Yihua could see that his body finally showed signs of age. Furthermore, for some reason, she suddenly remembered the youth who came to her doorstep to berate Shao Yifu earlier.
"Are you thinking about that Zhou Hao?" Shao Yifu had been husband and wife with Fang Yihua for many years, so he could easily guess what she was thinking, "Actually I was also guessing that this time, when Asia Television Limited changed hands, the person behind them might actually be him."
Fang Yihua frowned: "That's not possible, he's only that old, how can he have that much money?"
Shao Yifu said: "Regardless if it's him or not, we have to be prepared. Next, I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle between our Asia Television Limited and ours."
Fang Yihua nodded her head, but at this time, a knock on the door sounded out, followed by the servant's voice, "Master, Madam, Mister Qian is here to find you guys, she said that she has something she wants to discuss with you two."
"It should be that Qian Guowei guy." Fang Yihua said to Shao Yifu, then turned to the servant and said: "Let him in."
Then, they saw a fat man walk into the hall from outside, and respectfully bow towards Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua, "Sixth Uncle, Sixth Aunt."
Shao Yifu did not say anything, but Fang Yihua nodded at him, "This year's Miss Hong Kong has done a good job, you have worked hard."
This Qian Guowei was one of the gold medal supervisors for Wireless Television Limited. He was the best at variety shows, such as Miss Hong Kong, the "prizes" and other variety shows that were popular in Hong Kong.
"Guo Wei, why did you come this time?" Shao Yifu opened his mouth, "It can't be that you brought female artists to the dining area and got caught by the paparazzi, right?" His voice was calm, but Qian Guowei who was standing opposite him felt a chill down his spine.
"No, no, this time I do have a serious matter to discuss with Sixth Uncle and Sixth Aunt." Qian Guowei hurriedly said.
Fang Yihua patted Shao Yifu's shoulders, "Let him go. If it weren't for him coaxing those bosses into being so happy, how could our variety show have so much sponsorship?" Then, she turned to Qian Guowei, "Alright, alright. If you have something to say, say it."
"Yes, yes." Qian Guowei immediately said, "It's like this. Someone brought a program book to me today. It's a program project for a game show called 'Millionaire'."
Then, he told the entire process of the production of "Millionaire" to Shao Yifu and his again. Then, he gave the blueprint to Fang Yihua.
After Qian Guowei finished speaking, Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua looked at each other in surprise. They could see the glint in each other's eyes.
Fang Yihua immediately took the program book and read it seriously. After skimming through it, she could not help but praise it, "Good! This plan was really well done! If it could be produced and broadcast, it would definitely cause a huge commotion.
Moreover, aren't some people always criticizing the vulgarity of our 'prizes'? Once this series of 'Millionaire' is broadcast, let's see who would dare to call our show vulgar. "
Shao Yifu also raised his head and looked at Qian Guowei, "Guowei, who did this? Are you from our company? "
He immediately realized that it was a rare talent that had planned this. If it was an employee of his company, then he would have to promise to be in a high position. If it was someone from the outside, then he would have to hire someone with a high salary.
Qian Guowei looked at Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua, paying attention to their expressions. Fang Yihua, on the other hand, was already feeling impatient, "What are you waiting for, quickly tell me, who made this plan?"
"This proposal was not written by our company." Qian Guowei hesitated for a moment before saying, "Actually, this set of 'Millionaire' is a television program that is being closely prepared by the Asia Television Limited department.
The person who gave me this plan book was a manager who was fired by Asia Television Limited. He said that Asia Television Limited was heartless to him, so he didn't need to be completely righteous to Asia Television Limited. "
Hearing that "Millionaire" was a program that was being produced by Asia Television Limited, Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua were shocked.
Having been in the television industry for so many years, they were naturally very observant. Just by looking at the plan, they could already foresee that once Millionaire was broadcast, it would definitely cause a stir in Hong Kong.
Shao Yifu said with a grave expression on his face: "The person who took over the Asia Television Limited this time is indeed not simple, to be able to produce such a set of programs. "However …" He looked towards Qian Guowei's face and said, "Since Asia Television Limited is already producing this program, why is that person still giving us the program plan?"
"Maybe it's to prepare us." Fang Yihua said: "Knowing that they are producing this set of《 Millionaire》, we have to think of a good strategy.
Why don't we put this year's TV show on the air when they're broadcasting Millionaire and compete with them for a show? "
Shao Yifu waved his hand, "It's useless, I'm afraid that when the time comes, I will have ruined our time."
However, he heard Qian Guowei say at this moment, "Sixth Uncle, Sixth Aunt, the person who gave me the proposal said that Asia Television Limited has yet to apply for copyright protection for this set of 'Millionaire' from any department. They probably did not expect that the plan would be leaked, so they are not in a hurry to apply."
Shao Yifu's face changed as he stared at Qian Guowei, "Are you serious? Is this news true? "
"This... I can't guarantee it. " Qian Guowei replied, "But doesn't our company have departments that deal with the customs and international intellectual property protection centers? Sixth Uncle and Sixth Aunt, can't you ask them to go to the customs and international intellectual property protection centers?"
"Yeah." Shao Yifu said: "Yi Hua, ask them to go ask around, and see if Asia Television Limited has applied for a copyright patent for this set of《 Millionaire》."
Shao Yifu knew that a shopping mall was like a battlefield, there was no justice at all. So he decided.
If Asia Television Limited really didn't apply for copyright protection for "Millionaire", then he could take advantage of them and take "Millionaire" as his own. Regarding this, Shao Yifu didn't have any psychological burdens towards him.
Fang Yihua also said: "I'll do it myself, the less people know about this matter, the better."
Shao Yifu nodded his head. After all, if Asia Television Limited were to find out, they would immediately apply for the copyright.
"This is a good opportunity to strike the Asia Television Limited." Shao Yifu said: "It doesn't matter if that person is Zhou Hao or not, I must let him know, that I, Shao Yifu, am not an easy opponent!"
