Yang Yifei: "...But did you know that the other regions' competitions basically choose Mandarin songs? And the finals will be broadcast in Taiwan! At that time, most of the audience and judges will speak Mandarin! So the contestants in your region may..."
We must ensure the ratings of Hong Kong television stations in the local market.
Moreover, most of the audience at the event are Hong Kong locals, and they must be used to listening to Cantonese!
Pay attention to the voting session then. It may be that Cantonese songs are more popular, which is also for the sake of the contestants.
That is why all contestants are required to sing songs in Cantonese.
The Hong Kong competition area is also unwilling to spend a lot of manpower and resources to host this talent show. Knowing that the organizer is the program team in Taiwan, these sub-competition areas are actually making wedding dresses for others.
Whether the show is successful or not has little to do with them.
Li Nanxing, who was far away in the United States, only learned now that the Hong Kong competition area had added this rule without authorization.
However, Li Nanxing did not blame the person in charge of the Hong Kong competition area.
After all, Hong Kong is still a British colony and does not have its own sovereignty, so it is indeed easy to be constrained in some areas.
Hong Kong has its own considerations. As long as there are no mistakes on issues of principle, such as promoting worship of foreigners or discrimination against Chinese people, Li Nanxing will not interfere too much.
Currently, the six divisions of this talent show have entered the preliminary rounds in full swing. In order to compete for the top ten in each division and successfully enter the finals, the competition in each division is very exciting.
Li Nanxing also achieved his dream of making this program bigger and expanding the influence of Chinese songs!
Therefore, the issues concerning the Hong Kong region are not that important.
Anyway, in the next ten years or so, Cantonese songs will occupy a very important position in pop music, so just let it develop freely.
As for whether the contestants from the Hong Kong region will be at a disadvantage due to language problems when the finals come.
Let the person in charge of the Hong Kong competition area find a solution to this problem!
…
"What? The boss said that if the contestants from the Hong Kong region don't perform well in the finals, our project funding for next year will be reduced?" asked Shen Zhiwei, director of Hong Kong Fanxing TV, in surprise.
Isn't this just a talent show?
Moreover, this program is mainly organized by Taiwan, and their Hong Kong competition zone is only one of the six competition zones!
Is it necessary to take it so seriously?
Just because of this one program, they have to cut their entire station’s budget?
Director Shen was incredulous.
What does it have to do with them if this player performs poorly?
The final prize money won by the contestants did not include them!
How come there is joint liability attached to this?
Director Shen suddenly felt a little overwhelmed.
The visitor calmly replied, "Yes! The boss said that Hong Kong added a rule at the last minute without informing the person in charge of the main competition area in advance. This is in itself an irresponsible act! Since you added this rule, you are now responsible for this program! You can continue to add other rules or come up with other solutions. The bottom line is that the contestants from Hong Kong cannot be too far behind those from other regions! They cannot be at the bottom!"
Director Shen was somewhat helpless. He had only considered this program as a task before. After all, his side was only a sub-competition area. Whether the entire program was good or bad, it was the responsibility of the overall competition area!
Isn't it enough for him to just do it right?
But now I didn’t expect that the boss would be dissatisfied with the temporary addition of rules in Hong Kong.
"Then what is the standard for not too bad? As long as there is one Hong Kong player who can enter the top ten of the finals, does it count? After all, the local population of other sub-competition areas is definitely much larger than that of Hong Kong, so there must be more outstanding players in these areas than in Hong Kong! The boss should understand us, right?" Director Shen asked tentatively.
The visitor looked at Director Shen with a half-smile and said, "Boss, you're very interested in Hong Kong's entertainment industry. You started your industrial layout in Hong Kong much earlier than in other regions! If the Hong Kong branch only achieves this goal, you'll definitely be very disappointed! Director Shen, you can't shirk responsibility at this time! As the director, don't you have any intention of making the TV station bigger and stronger? This time, six locations are jointly hosting a large-scale talent show. Don't you think this is a great opportunity for the TV station?"
Upon hearing this, Director Shen said helplessly, "Hong Kong is a small place, and the number of TV viewers is limited. There are already several large, established TV stations in Hong Kong that have been operating for decades. These stations already have their own fixed audiences. For a new station like us that has only been open for less than a year, it's really stressful to compete with these established stations!"
"You also said that those are old TV stations. Their programs are completely uninnovative, and the dramas they broadcast are just so-so! Our TV station is a newly established one, so the programs we broadcast can win by being innovative. If you just keep complaining and making excuses, do you think your boss will approve of you?"
"Innovation? But what if the innovative programs aren't accepted by the audience and the ratings continue to decline? The TV station has just been established, and the ratings are entirely supported by the TV series. If my reckless behavior causes the ratings to plummet, how will I explain this to my boss? I can't bear this responsibility!"
"Homogeneity will only lead to elimination, and only difference will be interesting! The boss is very optimistic about Hong Kong's cultural and entertainment industry! In addition to Hong Kong and Taiwan, the boss also plans to expand into other parts of Asia. If your Hong Kong TV station continues to perform lukewarmly, what do you think the boss will do?"
