If the Korean Wave's invasion of the country can be divided into the 1.0 and 2.0 eras, then the same is true for the current domestic entertainment industry. Needless to say, the 1.0 era is definitely the era of Hong Kong and Taiwan movies and TV series.
That is to say, in the 1980s and 1990s, the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles at that time were in a complete mess, let alone the mainland. Looking at the whole of Asia, there is no rival.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be many Hong Kong and Taiwan king-level stars who have begun to set their sights on Hollywood in the Western Hemisphere. They have already dominated Asia, but are they about to go global?
But all kinds of shoddy work have inadvertently created many classics. But most of them are actually blockbusters, especially because of the star power and the good results of this film before, most of them were blocked after harvesting fans.
In other words, it is the audience's reputation that wins the market. If people criticize it as a bad movie, it will not make a dime less than it should have earned. Since everyone can make money, and make a lot of money, naturally more and more people no longer like to work hard, and various ways to make money are emerging in endlessly.
But really good movies and TV series are not as good as those bad movies in terms of revenue, and they will even be robbed of a lot of box office by bad movies. Both capital and so-called filmmakers are constantly joining the vicious circle of making money without taking quality and reputation seriously.
This leads to the audience's enthusiasm and love being harvested in waves, and then they become more and more rational and no longer pay for bad movies. And because of the emergence of bad movies, the new generation of artists cannot get good training.
So much so that even though it made a lot of money at the box office, no one remembers who these people are. In other words, if there were not some old big stars in this movie, these people would have no sense of existence at all.
This has also led to the fact that the stars currently active on the screen are still the same people as before. There are very few actors who have been well-known to the audience in recent years. This has led to serious faults in the entertainment circles of Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Even if a movie or TV series becomes popular and brings out a few good newcomers, it will soon be unable to make any waves because of the continuous failure of all kinds of bad movies.
And let alone now, not even in ten years. Speaking of Hong Kong and Taiwan stars, except for the old stars who can no longer act, it is difficult for people to name a few newcomers.
But even if it is said that, for now, the entertainment market in Hong Kong and Taiwan is still more developed than that in the mainland, and the celebrities are much more famous than those in the mainland.
Therefore, it is still a common phenomenon for actors to migrate to Hong Kong. It seems that going from the mainland to Hong Kong is equivalent to entering Asia, and then becoming famous in Hong Kong and then looking forward to Hollywood. This is a generally recognized route to the world.
This is actually a route determined by the market.
The entertainment market is undoubtedly facing audiences. Currently, the main audience groups are those born in the 60s, 70s and the rising 80s. Among people of this age group, Hong Kong films have such a profound impact on them that even Hollywood All the blockbuster films have to be put on the back burner.
So if the audience is these people, then the era will naturally belong to Hong Kong and Taiwan, even though the entertainment industry in Hong Kong and Taiwan has begun to enter its twilight years. Korean dramas, mainland idol dramas, and even European and American blockbusters that have been rising in recent years have begun to try to land in the mainland.
The post-90s generation began to grow up, and the post-00s generation began to be born. In addition, although the post-70s and 80s generations have irreplaceable status in the hearts of Hong Kong and Taiwan goddesses and male gods, they also have a certain understanding of the new generation.
After these people become the main force of society, the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles in their twilight years will truly become a thing of the past, and they are still in their final glory.
While mainland actors want to go to Hong Kong to become rich, Hong Kong and Taiwan actors have tried every means to develop in the mainland in recent years. Among them, Haina is undoubtedly the best platform.
Of course, even if Haina is domineering, it cannot be the only choice for these people, or dominate the entire market. This is like Heiner's movies. Although the attendance rate in computer theaters is the highest, it is impossible for cinemas to only schedule Heiner's movies during filming.
However, it is precisely because Haina is the best choice and not one of them, so many artists from Hong Kong and Taiwan have been signed in recent years, and most of them are not found by Haina on his own initiative, but in the form of friends leading friends. Come to the mainland for development.
For example, Li Zongsheng has a good relationship with Zhou Huajian, and where is Zhou Huajian's coffee position? It can be said that it is a win-win situation for him to hand over his mainland recording career to Hainer.
In addition to Zhou Huajian, Li Zongsheng also has a good relationship with Zhang Xinzhe, and the other party also signed a contract with Haina. Then friends of Zhou Huajian and Zhang Xinzhe, or other singers in the companies they belong to, also want to come to the mainland for development.
Instead of the original cooperation between artists and mainland companies, it became a cooperation between two companies and the company. The scope of this coverage suddenly expanded again.
Of course, with Haina's current identity and status, it's not like anyone can cooperate with him if he wants to. Therefore, if you are an old person in the company and want to introduce any friends to the company, you should first say hello to the company's senior management, and then meet for dinner.
However, Liu Zongsheng is generally in charge of these matters, and Yang Dongxu is in charge of the general direction. Apart from occasionally interfering with some movies and TV series, the hands-off shopkeeper does a very cool job.
Of course, occasionally an introducer would find him during a meal. For example, when Li Zongsheng introduced someone, he just said hello to Liu Zongsheng. If this person is important, a lot of resources will be spent after signing him, so it will just be a matter of holding a small meeting.
But for people he is very optimistic about and can praise highly, he will basically look for opportunities to bring people to Yang Dongxu for dinner after making a decision in the company.
For example, this time, he brought Zhou Yilun, who was highly praised by the company, and Fei Yuqing, who had just come to the mainland from Taiwan to develop, to Hangzhou.
Of course, he didn't fly to Hangzhou specially to treat Yang Dongxu to a meal. It has been more than a year since Zhou Yilun joined the company. He is very popular both in Hong Kong, Taiwan and the Mainland. He is called the "little king" of the new generation, and his influence has spread beyond China and has a certain influence in Japan and South Korea. market.
It can be said that he is a newcomer who has reached this level in recent years. Yang Dongxu personally checked with him when he signed him.
This time only Li Zongsheng and a few people came to treat Yang Dongxu to dinner because Zhou Yilun had an event in Hangzhou. He also held a fan meeting and filmed the MV in West Lake.
Li Zongsheng has nothing to do in Yanjing, and usually returns to Taiwan to stay for a while. After all, there is also a Haina branch there, and he can still work there.
This time I happened to be returning to the mainland from Taiwan with Zhou Yilun, so I took the same flight to Hangzhou. I originally wanted to go for a stroll in the West Lake, but after learning that Yang Dongxu was also in Hangzhou, I decided to have this dinner.
The meal was not at the Yang Family Banquet, but at a small local restaurant next to the West Lake. I said I wanted to taste the authentic West Lake vinegar fish. It seems that this dish needs to be eaten sitting by the West Lake to be truly authentic.
Arriving at the small private room upstairs, Yang Dongxu found that in addition to the three Li Zongshengs, there was also an extremely tall woman.
This woman does not need to be introduced to Yang Dongxu. After all, sister Zhiling is now known as the most beautiful woman in Taiwan. Although her fame has not yet reached its peak, men are always more impressed by beautiful women, not to mention that Yang Dongxu has experienced the peak of her fame. People who have been through this era.
"Everyone, please sit down. You don't have to be so polite. Brother Li's friend is my friend. It's rude for you to treat me to dinner." After entering, seeing everyone standing up, Yang Dongxu hurriedly smiled and pressed the button Laying on of hands.
"Let me introduce to you. This is Fei Yu, who has no a cappella singing ability or voice. This time Suihe Yilun comes to the mainland to visit. And the two are planning to collaborate on a song. This is Lin Chiling from Taiwan. Supermodel, this is the most beautiful woman in Taiwan right now, are you amazed?"
Having known Li Zongsheng for so many years, the two of them have become extremely familiar with each other. After getting familiar with him, you will find that apart from being serious and strict in the recording studio, he is actually quite happy in private and has a good temper.
"If I had known earlier, I should have brought my wife here to see how she would react when she saw you introducing me to a beautiful woman." Yang Dongxu said with a smile.
"Come on, I can't afford to offend that guy in your family." Li Zongsheng couldn't help but laugh.
However, Xiao Guixiao meant what he said. I don't know if it was because of Chen Hong. At first, Haina was still interfering with Zhou Ya, but then he stopped interfering.
Even when Chen Hong was in Yanjing, she never went to Haina's company once. After Chen Hong retreated behind the scenes and stopped asking questions, and married Yang Dongxu, Zhou Ya only visited Haina a few times.
Although it was only a few times, the people in Haina were deeply impressed by their proprietress. Especially company executives like Li Zongsheng who talk and chat with Zhou Ya at close range.
I always felt that my boss's life was not simple. Later, when I was gathering with other people, I accidentally heard about my boss's wife, which made me respect her even more.
In fact, it’s not just Li Zongsheng, Yang Dongxu has so many companies under his control, and even friends like Zhu Hengyi and Qian Liang. Although Zhou Ya has stopped caring about business matters, her current temperament is that of a good wife and mother, which makes people a little jealous of Yang Dongxu's shitty luck.
But for some unknown reason, these people always have an unspeakable scruple about Zhou Ya. In short, everyone agrees that if you offend Yang Dongxu, it will be over if Mr. Yang is in a good mood and laughs. But if you offend Zhou Ya...
When Yang Dongxu and Li Zongsheng were joking, Lin Zhiling, who was sitting next to Li Zongsheng's hand, couldn't help but look at Yang Dongxu curiously.
As for Young Master Yang, he had long been told that he was a big shot in the circle who must not be offended. When he saw it with his own eyes, he seemed to be younger and more handsome than the legend said. And he is not as arrogant as the rumors say, but the whole person feels very kind.
He was also very easy-going. Even when he was joking about a beautiful woman, it was quite surprising that he would directly mention his wife.
After all, as a well-known female model now, she has a lot of entertainment. Excluding those random people with evil intentions, she also saw many other polite gentlemen. Yang Dongxu was the first to take the initiative to mention his wife, as if to explain something or to be defensive.
