Chapter 202 The capital at this moment
It’s New Year’s Eve again, this year is different from previous years.
The street neighborhood committee strictly implements the documents issued by the municipal party committee, and does not set off firecrackers from door to door. They must hand over the firecrackers privately. Whoever sets off firecrackers will be responsible, and neighbors supervise each other.
Beijing TV station promotes the harm of setting off fireworks and firecrackers in the news every day, and uses detailed data and examples to prove that fireworks and firecrackers are dangerous goods and can cause serious harm to people.
The traffic police department conducted strict investigations on vehicles entering the capital and arrested many criminals who smuggled fireworks and firecrackers.
It is precisely because firecrackers are prohibited in the city that these people think of secretly transporting them in and preparing to sell them at a high price.
The entire capital city entered a state of emergency, and the prohibition on setting off firecrackers was regarded as a political task.
The people living in the capital are used to it. In the capital, no matter how small the matter is, they can create a big battle. The only thing everyone can do is calm.
The current regulations are that firecrackers are not allowed in the city. Those who want to set off firecrackers during the New Year can go to the suburbs.
Lin Zixuan didn’t have this interest and would still celebrate the New Year without setting off firecrackers.
He sent Mu Shanshan to China TV station in the morning and then went to his parents' home. Xiaoling was indifferent to this year's Spring Festival Gala.
"I won't go to the scene to watch it. There are no stars. It's better to go to bed early." Lin Xiaoling complained.
This is probably what most young people think.
There are reports about the Spring Festival Gala in the newspaper. Without Hong Kong and Taiwan stars, young people cannot attract the interest of watching the Spring Festival Gala. However, this provides a good opportunity for domestic pop singers to become famous.
As long as you have the strength and dare to sing, you can make a name for yourself.
Lin Zixuan has watched the rehearsal. This Spring Festival Gala is quite simple, without dazzling stage lighting, nor gorgeous costumes, and only real performances.
The director doesn't want those fancy things to affect the audience, he wants to immerse the audience in the actor's performance.
In the afternoon, Lin Zixuan went to Mu Shanshan's house and chatted with Li Hong.
Beijing TV Art Center has achieved considerable results this year. Huairou's film and television base can be put into use in batches after the Chinese New Year. Li Hong is preparing to break away from the relationship between superiors and subordinates with Huaguo TV Station and become a unit under the Propaganda Department of the Beijing Municipal Committee.
Once he takes this step, Li Hong will not have to be restricted by Chinese TV stations and will be truly the master of his own.
Of course, China Television still holds shares in the Art Center and has the right to speak.
If the superior has the task of shooting a TV series, it will still be handed over to the art center. This kind of shooting task is often the main theme TV series. It cannot be filmed without filming, and it cannot be sold after filming, so it is called a task.
Every year, the Art Center has one or two similar TV series.
"After the New Year, the Art Center will invest 1 million in advance to your Good Dream Company. In this way, even if the Chinese TV station, the Art Center and Good Dream Company are connected, no one can move." Li Hong planned.
The Art Center invested in Haomeng Company, and Lin Zixuan and Li Hong had discussed this before.
There are seven or eight private film and television companies like Haomeng Company in Beijing, and it is estimated that the number will increase after the Chinese New Year. Shopping malls are like battlefields, and competition is quite fierce.
Private companies are different from state-owned units.
State-owned units are competition within the system. Everyone needs to be faced and restrained. Private companies may use some unconventional means to make people unable to defend themselves.
Once the Art Center invests in Haomeng Company, Haomeng Company is no longer a simple private company.
Lin Zixuan can openly borrow resources from the art center, such as actors and behind-the-scenes personnel, film and television bases, etc.
The Art Center has extended its business scope through Good Dream Company and has entered the film industry.
This is the mutual benefit and win-win situation between state-owned units and private companies.
This kind of investment method is not uncommon, but only relatives like Li Hong and Lin Zixuan can cooperate without interruption, otherwise there will be internal struggles over the issue of shareholding ratio.
In fact, the leaders of some state-owned units also use this method to transfer funds.
Let your relatives open a company and inject capital into the company in the name of investment. After a year and a half, the company filed for bankruptcy, and the money will fall into your private pocket.
This leader just needs to say that the investment failed and will not be severely punished.
In this era, the market had just opened and China's financial system was not yet perfect, so this phenomenon was difficult to avoid.
Lin Zixuan and Li Hong did this not to give up their own pockets, but to be an important development strategy.
With the support of the Art Center and the background of China TV, no one will take improper competition against Good Dream Company, otherwise they will face an extremely serious counterattack.
As a private company, Good Dream Company is more flexible in its operations and can make more investments.
"Okay, but wait a little longer. I will make a million yuan when the company makes it better on the books." Lin Zixuan suggested.
Now Good Dream Company only has 20,000 yuan on the books. If the Art Center invests 1 million, it is equivalent to a full acquisition.
When "The Story of the Cooking Class" was sold, Haomeng Company made money. At least it seemed to have a cooperative relationship with the Art Center. Some people could not find out if they wanted to check it.
"You are very confident in that TV series!" Li Hong said in surprise.
Li Hong has some understanding of the TV series filmed by Feng Xiaogang. The script was created in the Art Center, and she is not very optimistic about it.
"No one has ever filmed a military-themed TV series like this before. This time it will either not be broadcasted or it will be very popular." Lin Zixuan analyzed, "When the sketch at tonight's party is broadcast, you will have a good idea to see the audience's reaction and tomorrow's newspaper comments."
After leaving Mu Shanshan's house, he rushed to China Television Station.
This time, he sat on the round table in front, beside him were famous Chinese entrepreneurs and some old seniors in the entertainment industry.
Lin Zixuan greeted him politely, waiting for the Spring Festival Gala to start. He had almost watched these programs, but there was nothing new. He mainly watched Mu Shanshan.
This is the only way for two to spend the New Year together.
The show passed one by one, "A Letter from Home" came out. The singer found by the director of the Spring Festival Gala was OK. She sang very emotionally. The audience below wiped their tears, which was very effective.
The sketch "Five Minutes of True Love" selected by the Air Affairs Center also received warm applause.
Lin Zixuan looked at the audience's reaction and felt relieved, which showed that the audience could accept this form of sitcom.
As time passes, the countdown begins, and the New Year's bell rings on time.
There are many flaws in this Spring Festival Gala. Some actors do not perform well, but overall they are pretty good. There are no major mistakes, which makes everyone relieved.
After the Spring Festival Gala ended, Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan left China Television.
At this time, many viewers stood outside, as if they were listening, but they could not hear anything.
At this moment, the capital city is extremely quiet.
"I'm not used to it so quiet." Mu Shanshan whispered.
"This is great. You can have a good sleep when you go back, so don't worry about being disturbed." Lin Zixuan hugged Mu Shanshan and said optimistically.
They walked towards the car, sat in the car, turned on the headlights, and illuminated the road ahead. (To be continued.)
