On the one hand, it can enrich Asia Television's television resource library, and on the other hand, it can also subtly provide a way for the people of Hong Kong Island to learn more about mainland China."
Guo Linxian nodded in praise, "That's a great idea. Mengmeng was just saying at home yesterday that Asia Television needs to reform and enrich its TV resource library. Xiaolinsheng is going to buy a lot of copyrighted programs from Japanese TV stations! If we can provide some of the program content for free, it would be a mutually beneficial thing."
…
At this time, there was a constant stream of people paying attention to the news in front of the major newsstands. Everyone was talking about it with great interest and there was a lot of discussion.
A white-collar worker with a briefcase flipping through the pages of Oriental Daily News shook his head and sneered, "Kobayashi Tenmo is certainly talented. He's surprisingly good at both comics and newspapers. But this time he's really lost his mind! Letting two beauty pageant winners run a TV station? It's a complete joke! TVB will probably be laughing their heads off!"
An old man working at a tea restaurant slapped the newspaper and said, "Damn it! A 20% pay raise? Buying people over with money! Too much money is a waste of money! Two little girls, what do they know about filming? Sooner or later, ATV will be ruined by them!"
A young student had a slightly different opinion: "I don't think so! Liu Rumeng looks like she's no ordinary person. The cleaning techniques she used yesterday were so impressive! Besides, when has Xiao Linsheng ever done anything he wasn't sure of? Maybe he's right again this time."
His companion immediately retorted, "Boss! This time is different! Making a show isn't like writing a novel or drawing a comic; it requires a team and experience! TVB is deeply entrenched, and ATV is a mess right now. Can two pretty girls save it? What a lunatic! I think that Kobayashi Tenmo has been blinded by beauty and wants to play the game of keeping a beautiful woman and bring down ATV at the same time?"
Victoria Peak, Governor's Residence.
The morning sunlight shines through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows onto the exquisite breakfast table of Hong Kong Government House.
Sir Murray MacLehose was slowly cutting into an omelet and then looking at several newspaper headlines presented by his butler.
This was the couple's daily habit: while enjoying breakfast, they would admire the scenery of Victoria Harbour and read newspapers about what was happening on Hong Kong Island that day. This was a sign that the hardworking Governor of Hong Kong was deeply understanding the people's sentiments.
"Murray, check out today's news!"
Mrs. Deng Liping put down the Ming Pao newspaper in her hand and said excitedly, "That mysterious Mr. Kobayashi Tianwang has come up with another amazing trick!
He directly pushed his beautiful Miss Hong Kong lover Liu Rumeng, and another Miss Lu Ruirong, who was said to have a close relationship with him, to the positions of General Manager and Deputy General Manager of Asia Television!
Oh my god, this is even more dramatic than the plot of "A Step into the Past"!
For the wife of the Governor of Hong Kong, Teresa Teresa, the entire island has become much more lively since Kobayashi Tenmo came to Hong Kong.
Moreover, this kind of excitement is quite peculiar. No matter in which industry or field, Kobayashi Tenwang can always come up with some unexpected eye-catching tricks.
Upon hearing this, MacLehose smiled and said, "This is both expected and unexpected. What was expected was that he would definitely carry out drastic reforms on ATV and eliminate dissidents.
What was unexpected was... he actually chose this most eye-catching and most controversial method.
Let two young girls with no experience in television management, and girls who became famous through beauty pageants, take charge of a TV station that is in a state of trouble?
Honey, that's not like him. I thought he would recruit some experienced professional managers from Japan or Hong Kong.
It seems that inflated self-confidence and excessive trust in those around them are, after all, a common problem among young people. In the cruel world of business, especially the media industry, beauty and a little cleverness are far from enough.
The quagmire of Asia Television is not something two glamorous Miss Hong Kong contestants can easily wade through. This move is too risky, too... romantic. I think the chances of success are slim to none.
Hong Kong Governor Murray MacLehose made this conclusion in a condescending and insightful tone.
But his wife Deng Liping disagrees.
She gracefully picked up the silver spoon and stirred the coffee in her cup. Her eyes were filled with her usual curiosity about the young Chinese-Japanese businessman and a certain inexplicable confidence. She said, "Oh? Honey, I don't think we should jump to conclusions so soon. Think about it, when he founded the Asia Daily, wasn't the whole of Hong Kong waiting to see him make a fool of himself?
What was the result? How popular is that newspaper now? And isn't the identity of Huang Yi, the author of "A Step into the Past" still a mystery, also a trump card in his hand?
Kobayashi Tenwang never does things according to common sense, but he often achieves victory by surprise.
Having two such young and beautiful Miss Hong Kong winners manage a TV station is a huge gimmick in itself! It's full of novel imagination!
I wonder if he can truly turn a rotten situation into something magical? After all, management sometimes requires more than just experience; it requires the courage to break the mold and... a special kind of charisma?
I'm looking forward to seeing what different programming styles these two "beautiful station directors" will bring. Perhaps this will be ATV's winning strategy against TVB's dull and clichéd nature.
Because Kobayashi Tenwang had created miracles many times, Deng Liping was quite optimistic about him and even had a kind of "blind confidence" in him.
Others, including the newspapers, were thinking about how to belittle Kobayashi Tenmo's "stupid moves", but the Governor's wife, Teresa Tang, was always wondering in what unexpected way these moves of Kobayashi Tenmo would "break the deadlock"!
MacLehose looked at his wife's enthusiasm and confidence in Kobayashi Tenwang and smiled helplessly.
