Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Before the 1980s, the pace of the world was generally not very fast.  ¡ð The speed of information transmission in this era is still very slow.  Based on such a slow information transmission speed, further fermentation will be even slower.  It took more than 20 days for the film and television industry employees¡¯ salary incident to go from the first report in the newspapers to the fact that it became an uproar and affected every employee.  When they first saw the report, some slow-responsive readers had no impression at all and were attracted by other news.  Only a few keen readers accurately grasped the information that TVB and Lidi had signed fixed contracts with several former Jiashi hosts.  And among these people, those who make a living in movies and TV shows are very few.  ¡°Most of these film and television practitioners are still small stars, small roles, and low-level workers who have no ambitions. When they grasp the key points of the news, they just angrily curse a few words about the same people but different lives.  Then in the midst of intense work and running for life, leave it behind.  "According to subsequent research, the first ones to voice complaints of injustice were two semi-famous but not popular artists, belonging to TVB and Li TV respectively.  After reading the newspaper, these two people were so angry that they grabbed the phone and called all the colleagues they knew and knew their phone numbers.  It was through their mouths that this news that had almost been buried was known to all colleagues who had contact with them within one day.  Then, these colleagues who knew the situation either found newspapers and read them carefully and were seen by other colleagues; or they were equally angry and cursed in the workplace, which attracted other people to watch, and then spread the news wider and wider.  In the first week, the news was still spreading.  Although they knew that TVB and Li's had signed fixed contracts with several former Jiashi hosts, everyone was still shocked, envious, and jealous.  Then, as more and more newspapers, media, and radio stations joined in the in-depth digging of this news, more details began to be exposed, and its influence began to gradually increase.  Many film and television professionals who were so excited by the early news that they were suffocating were more intent on pursuing various reports related to it, and the more they read, the angrier they became.  When a newspaper made an in-depth report that the unnamed host of TVB proposed to the TV station to sign the same contract but was rejected, it completely ignited everyone's anger.  People do not suffer from scarcity, but from inequality.  ¡°If the rules of the industry were like this, and all film and television practitioners would not get a fixed salary, they could only get paid for making a movie, and getting paid for doing a program, then everyone would be able to tolerate it.  Although some people have many film appointments, often appear on shows, and get paid mercilessly, but they are popular and they deserve it.  If you are not famous, you deserve to work hard. You have to work around to make a living. You also have to save money to learn acting, practice singing, and try your best to curry favor with directors, screenwriters, and even drama staff in order to play a small role in movies and programs, and strive to be popular.  It looks familiar to the audience.  Even if they are exhausted every day and extremely malnourished, everyone can only grit their teeth and endure it, looking forward to the day when they can get ahead.  However, one day, the standards of this industry seemed to collapse, and someone actually exceeded these rules and could easily make a lot of money.  So, the belief they persisted in collapsed.  They are confused, they don¡¯t know if their persistence is still useful, why someone can easily rise to the top, but they continue to struggle in the sea of ??suffering, persisting for a small expectation!  They can¡¯t find it!  They can¡¯t find any reason to continue to persevere, and the light that supports them to continue to suffer has disappeared.     unfair!  This world is unfair!  More and more people roared.  Famous popular celebrities, hosts, and directors roared out, and those little starlets, little entertainers, and deadbeats who had no money also roared out with a sad tone and with all their strength.  They are not convinced!  Whoever made this rule, they don¡¯t accept it!  We are also human beings and actors. We also want to survive and succeed!  Although we are humble, we still have dignity and cannot be ignored or trampled upon by you! ?? Wireless and Li had already seen the news, but were paralyzed by the early calm and did not increase their vigilance and put out the fire in advance.  But I don¡¯t know that the longer the anger is suppressed, the more violent it will explode.  On October 21, one month after Guan Fei officially took over ATV, his anger broke out.  Almost all artists in Hong Kong have come forward, using newspapers, media, and radio stations to lash out at TVB and Lydia for their differential treatment.  The storm swept through the entire Hong Kong entertainment industry in an instant.   At this time, the senior executives of Wireless and Li had a sudden realization and tried their best to put out the fire.  The more they put out the fire, the bigger it becomes.  Because they can¡¯t give a convincing answer: Why can several former Jiashi hosts enjoy fixed salary contracts if they are not very famous and their level is not necessarily high.  The top executives of TVB and Lili tried their best to explain and analyze the popularity, professional level and past performance of these hosts. They said how important they are and how great they are in supplementing certain aspects of the TV station.  But the more you talk, the less likely you are to convince the public.  Finally, I don¡¯t know if it was a mistake in the process of putting out the fire. In the process of putting out the fire, the reason why those former Jiashi hosts were given fixed salaries was blurted out by a senior executive: "Don¡¯t bother with this report anymore! A few of them  Those guys from small TV stations, we have better people than them! If the Hong Kong government hadn¡¯t issued an order to block ATV, who would have given them high salaries, and the sacrifices we have made would have been huge!¡±  As soon as this statement came out, the whole Hong Kong was in an uproar.  This is not limited to the entertainment industry. The left and right in Hong Kong have jumped out and started a fierce offensive and defensive war using newspapers as the battlefield.  Generally speaking, the left wing attacks and the right wing defends, and at the same time helps the Hong Kong government clean up.  Once an opening is opened, it is difficult to hold it back. Reporters from all sides are like cats that smell a fishy smell, showing off their special skills and specializing in everything.  As more information was revealed, the war of words in the newspapers became more intense.  From the initial discussion of matters, it began to develop into mutual condolences to each other's female elders.  Ordinary citizens in Hong Kong have gradually begun to sympathize with ATV.  In daily chats, combined with the current situation of being discriminated against and squeezed, I also complained.  But no matter how public opinion changes, the voices of senior executives at TVB and Liga remain unchanged, firmly disagreeing with the return of several former Jiashi hosts who have become street rats to ATV.  Mrs. Fang, who has a tough personality, even shouted something like "even if we refrigerate them until they freeze, we will not let them go."  Among the citizens, the number of people who sympathize with ATV is increasing sharply. Many citizens have announced that they would rather listen to the radio and read newspapers than watch TVB and Li's TV programs.  ¡°So much so that some citizens ran to the wireless building and burned the dummy. It was not until they were taken away by the police and the fire was put out.  But the lingering smoke from the embers seems to be announcing that irreparable rifts have arisen between various social classes in Hong Kong.  Once the camp was established, ATV made its voice amidst the expectations of thousands of citizens.  Speaking out for the first time, ATV general manager Lin Xiuliang announced in front of many media that due to the malicious intentions of competitors and huge liquidated damages, they forcibly prevented the former ATV hosts from returning to the TV station, in order to avoid bringing negative consequences to the lives and work of several hosts.  To have a greater negative impact, ATV will no longer pursue the pursuit of several former hosts.  And at the end, I sincerely wish those hosts to make greater progress in their new jobs.  ATV¡¯s high profile won a round of applause.  Many media outlets have published articles on the front page, praising Mr. Lin for his tolerance and generosity, and sincerely hope that ATV can get out of the predicament as soon as possible and resume broadcasting smoothly.  Even fans of television stations that support TVB and Lili expressed their appreciation for the human touch shown by ATV.  A few days after this incident, many citizens who were concerned about the future of ATV digested the statement made by Lin Xiuliang on behalf of ATV. While appreciating it, they were worried about how ATV could resume broadcasting. ATV informed the news media, newspapers, and radio stations in Hong Kong  , the TV station sent an invitation letter and announced that it would hold a press conference in two days.  The press conference will be broadcast live to audiences across Hong Kong through live television, so that all citizens who care about ATV can understand the latest developments at the first time.  This is the hottest news right now, and it¡¯s live broadcast!  As long as the media in Hong Kong can mobilize manpower, all media will be dispatched.  Even because of the host incident, TVB and Li's, which had a falling out with ATV, would not let go of this eye-catching news and also sent their best troops to attend this press conference.  At noon on November 5th, the ATV press conference officially begins!   On the top floor of the ATV building, Henry and other British shareholders gathered in the office of the Board of Supervisors. They opened the curtains and looked coldly through the glass at the reporters below who came to attend the press conference with great interest. They came to ATV from all directions and in various ways.  People came to the building with smiles on their faces, frowns on their faces, happiness, or seriousness, and they hurriedly entered the building on the steps.  The office of Nuoda was deserted.  Now they have become hated objects in the TV station, and everyone is afraid of them.Too bad, no one wants to get close to them.  The TV station also used the excuse that irrelevant personnel were not allowed to enter, and did not allow former confidants who had been kicked out to come in. As a result, they were the only ones in the office that was hundreds of square meters, and there was not even a person to serve tea or water.  No wonder they are disliked by others.  They have to fight against Guan Fei, and the employees in Taiwan actually don¡¯t have much of a tendency.  But their methods went too far, and they actually wanted to completely ruin the TV station's chance of re-broadcasting. This was destroying the jobs of all ATV people!  Although ordinary staff behave submissively, rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, let alone humans?  Even if you can¡¯t beat or scold them, you can at least not talk to them, don¡¯t have contact with them, and keep a respectful distance.  Therefore, even though it was a major press conference that was likely to have a bearing on ATV¡¯s future, everyone from the top management to the busiest people in the station could attend, but they were not invited to attend.  In the past, they were the focus of media attention at major meetings related to Jiashi. Now they can only stay in the office, like other ordinary people, turning on the TV and understanding the press conference through the TV screen.  Shame, complete shame!  But no matter how angry they are, these are not the days when they were prosperous in the past.  They are only small shareholders of ATV at the moment - small shareholders!  They are the kind of small shareholders who are held in the palm of their hands by major shareholders. If they want you to be round, they will be round, and if they want you to be flat, they will be flat. They have no room for resistance!  No matter how great the shame is, they can only grit their teeth and swallow it with blood.  Here, on this territory, within Guan Fei¡¯s sphere of influence, they can¡¯t help but show their teeth and claws!  "Hmph! Two and a half months have passed since the repayment period granted by the court, and Guan Fei is still unable to resume broadcasting. There are only three and a half months left. I wonder if there is any way Guan Fei can come back to life! The good days that belong to him,  There¡¯s not much left!¡± Locke said sourly, swaying the coffee in his cup.  ¡°These damn servants have all run away, causing him to drink a cup of coffee. He has to grind it and brew it himself. It takes ten minutes to drink mellow coffee.  Damn it!  "Forget it, who made him so powerful now? Although we are an empire on which the sun never sets, we have endured humiliation. Before we turn the situation around, we'd better endure it!" Anderson's heavy body was stable and steady.  He sank deeply into the leather sofa, smoking a cigar comfortably and staring at the TV in boredom.  The twenty-inch color TV was tuned to the ATV channel.  It¡¯s just that there are still snowflakes on the TV and there is no signal at all.  British shareholders are not monolithic.  Anderson is a pure operator. As long as he can make money, he can cooperate with the devil.  Therefore, from the bottom of his heart, he did not want to confront Guan Fei. In addition to his heartfelt contempt for yellow skin, his attitude was gentler than others. Why bother hurting others and himself?  "But his arms can't hold his thighs. Other shareholders must do this. The Hong Kong government has also spoken, and it's okay if he doesn't listen.  However, he still hopes that Guan Fei can create miracles like he did in the electronics industry, restore ATV to its glory, and make his wallet a little bigger.  When I was bored, the screen flashed and a picture appeared.  On the screen is a color and grayscale test chart for TV viewers to compare and adjust.  Accompanying the test chart is a light music "For Alice".  "Is the picture quality good?" Anderson quickly leaned forward, opened his eyes and observed carefully, "The picture quality is even clearer than what we had before. The equipment they shipped from the mainland is so good!"
