C385 Change Fate
Last night, many viewers had watched the broadcast of Millionaire, and knew that it had stopped midway, so they paid a lot of attention to it.
As Wireless and Asia Television Limited were the two major television stations in Hong Kong, these two television stations were currently facing off against each other, and with the help of the customs and the International Intellectual Rights Protection Center, they had provided evidence for the Asia Television Limited. Therefore, this lawsuit was just as Zhou Hao had expected, attracting the attention of the entire Hong Kong citizen.
Especially when the Asia Television Limited demanded 300 million HKD from Wireless, it was even more surprising to the public.
Because the impact of this incident was too great, the court was soon brought up.
Wireless and the Asia Television Limited each sent out a law division, and Fang Yihua also represented Wireless to the court. As for Asia Television Limited, Zhou Hao sent the Li Family Tree as the representative.
Originally, Li Family Tree was one of the golden guardians of Wireless, but now it represented Asia Television Limited and Wireless against each other. It became the focus of the media and citizens.
Only the Li Family Tree was complaining in his heart, because he knew that this was Zhou Hao's way of tying him up in the Asia Television Limited.
Originally, the Li Family Tree had become the director of the Asia Television Limited's drama production department. He was different from those artistes. He did not sign a long contract with the Asia Television Limited, and he did not feel that much pressure even if he wanted to resign.
But now, even if Li Family Tree did not plan to stay in Asia Television Limited, he would not be able to return to the wireless world. He had already been branded with the Asia Television Limited's brand.
However, the Li Family Tree's desire to leave the Asia Television Limited had become stronger and stronger. Because he could see that this time, the Asia Television Limited really had a chance to defeat Wireless.
On the first day of the court hearing, because the Asia Television Limited provided sufficient evidence, even though Wireless's lawyer group was all elites, they knew that the chances of Wireless winning this lawsuit was not high.
Although it was not as much as compensation of 300 million HKD to the Asia Television Limited, the loss of reputation was not something that a mere 300 million HKD could compare to.
Shao Yifu was still in Mary's hospital. After Fang Yihua left the court, she immediately went to the hospital to see him.
"How is it? How is this lawsuit going?" Shao Yifu asked Fang Yihua as soon as he opened his mouth.
Fang Yihua knew that Shao Yifu was weak and wanted to hide it from him, but Shao Yifu was smart. They had been husband and wife for many years.
So before Fang Yihua could say anything, Shao Yifu had already guessed that wireless was at a disadvantage. He raised his hand. "You don't have to say anymore. Sigh, I also know that we have been schemed too deeply by the Asia Television Limited this time. Even if we don't have to compensate 300 million, we are afraid that our reputation will be tarnished. "
He looked up at the ceiling," The plan today is to minimize the impact of this matter on the company. "
Fang Yihua said, "Do you think we can discuss with the Asia Television Limited and make them reconcile with us outside the court?"
Shao Yifu waved his hand. "That's impossible. They did not sue us for money. Their goal was not above the 300 million.
I think they want to take advantage of this opportunity to strike at our reputation. They definitely won't give up this opportunity. " He let out a long sigh, "We're going to lose this battle"
"Then, what should we do?" Fang Yihua, who usually managed the huge Wireless Television Limited, was also a little helpless at this moment.
Because she had gone through court today, the evidence in the Asia Television Limited was too sufficient. Her side was completely at a disadvantage. Even the lawyer in the law division told her that unless the Asia Television Limited took the initiative to not pursue the matter, she would definitely lose this case.
Shao Yifu said, "That proposal was handed over by Qian Guowei. The way to do it now is to push all the blame onto him. Just say that we have no idea that Millionaire is a program from the Asia Television Limited. "
Fang Yihua frowned when she heard him. "This is not good. Guowei established a very wide customer network for our company. He was the one who pulled many sponsors back for us. If that's the case, we'll lose a lot of sponsors. "
"That's true. " Shao Yifu pondered for a while and said, "Then let's push the blame onto Xue Qiyi. Anyway, he's also the producer of Millionaire. Oh, and those directors. The company has been supporting them for so long. It's time for them to repay the company. "
As if she was used to Shao Yifu's way of doing things, Fang Yihua was not surprised at all. She nodded and said, "Okay, I know what to do. "
So, after the second day of the court hearing, Fang Yihua let the wireless legal division push all the responsibility to Xue Qiyi and the few directors, saying that the wireless had no idea about the copyright of Millionaire, and had been kept in the dark.
Xue Qiyi and the others did not know that Millionaire had been stolen from the Asia Television Limited. Now that they had rashly fallen into such a situation, they were dumbfounded and at a loss for what to do.
The public opinion outside was also in an uproar. Anyone with discerning eyes could tell that Millionaire was going to abandon its soldiers to protect its commander.
However, their method of sacrificing their employees to protect the company was harshly criticized by the public and the citizens.
However, Fang Yihua had no choice but to continue doing this. This was the only way to minimize the impact on the wireless.
Later on, she even pushed Zheng Yuling out and tried to minimize the responsibility of the wireless.
This action also made Xue Qiyi, Zheng Yuuling, and a few other people who had been pushed up to the stage completely cold their hearts towards the wireless. Even many celebrities and employees on the radio were deeply dissatisfied with the wireless.
Especially Zheng Yuling, who had worked for Wireless for more than ten years, had actually been mercilessly sacrificed by Wireless.
After that, the Li Family tree asked for Zhou Hao's opinion, because if the wireless did that, it was really possible to transfer part of the responsibility to Xue Qiyi and the others.
From Li Family Tree, who had a deep understanding of Wireless, Zhou Hao knew that Xue Qiyi was a rare talent. He had worked in Asia Television Limited before, but he couldn't stand those higher ups making things difficult for him, so he went back to Wireless.
There were also a few chief and deputy directors who were all talented and capable people.
Therefore, Zhou Hao instructed the Li Family Tree to not pursue the Li Family Tree and the others if Wireless pushed some responsibility onto Xue Qiyi and the others. He would directly pursue the responsibility of Wireless, and he must win this lawsuit.
At the same time, Zhou Hao also asked the Li Family Tree to throw an olive branch to Xue Qiyi, Zheng Yuling, and the others. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that they had given up on Wireless to drag them to the Asia Television Limited.
Many people could see that the responsibility of this incident was not on Xue Qiyi and the others. Therefore, when the Li Family Tree represented the Asia Television Limited and expressed that it would not pursue the responsibility of Xue Qiyi and the others, it won a wave of cheers.
Especially Xue Qiyi, Zheng Yuling and the others. They were very grateful to the Asia Television Limited. When the Li Family Tree asked them if they were willing to join the Asia Television Limited, they agreed without hesitation.
On the night of the third day of the court session, the Asia Television Limited officially broadcasted "Millionaire. "
This storm made all the Hong Kong citizens curious about this Millionaire that allowed Wireless and Asia Television Limited to compete for the copyright.
Therefore, there was almost no need for any publicity. When Asia Television Limited broadcasted Millionaire at 9: 30 PM, the viewership had already exceeded 40 points. It was a good result that the Asia Television Limited had never achieved in all these years.
The Asia Television Limited had invested sufficient funds into this Millionaire, so the hardware facilities were even better than the live broadcast of the Wireless Television Limited. The host of the Asia Television Limited was the original Chen Qitai.
The Asia Television Limited did not broadcast live, but recorded it in advance, so the quality was very good. This time, unlike the wireless broadcast, Zhou Hao and the rest did not need to use live broadcast as gimmicks anymore.
Chen Qitai was indeed the most suitable host for this Millionaire. His steady and humorous style was very popular. In addition, Millionaire was both interesting and exciting. The most important thing was that he gave the general public a chance to exchange knowledge for wealth.
Therefore, when the first episode of Millionaire was over, the viewership was close to 50 points.
Xian Zhiwei, Chen Shisan, and the others backstage hugged each other excitedly. Not to mention the Asia Television Limited, even the Wireless Television Limited had never received such a high viewership before.
On one hand, it was naturally because the Millionaire set produced by the Asia Television Limited was very outstanding. On the other hand, it was also because of the copyright storm created by the wireless and the Asia Television Limited that attracted the attention of everyone in Hong Kong.
"Boss, we succeeded! We did it!" Chen Shisan excitedly grabbed Zhou Hao's arms and shook them.
The Asia Television Limited had won the first battle. Zhou Hao was also very happy, but he didn't seem too excited. He just looked at Su Lin and smiled. Then he smiled at Chen Shisan and the others. "Alright. In order to celebrate, you and all the staff of Millionaire should go to the Peninsula Hotel to have a fun time. I'll take care of all the expenses. "
"Yay! Long live the boss!" Chen Shisan and the others cheered again.
"Oh right, Zhiwei. " Zhou Hao suddenly said to Xian Zhiwei, "If you have time, you higher-ups can go to the hospital and do a detailed physical examination. Even if it's the benefits given to you by the company, I don't want my capable subordinates to affect the operation of the company because of health issues. "
In fact, Zhou Hao knew that in his previous life, Xian Zhiwei, an important supervisor of Asia Television Limited, died of cancer due to his nasal cancer. When he died, he was only in his thirties. It was a pity that he died young.
Therefore, Zhou Hao asked Xian Zhiwei to do a check-up in advance. In accordance with the principle of 'Shallow Traditional Chinese Medicine', he changed Xian Zhiwei's fate and saved his life.
In order to prevent others from suspecting him, Zhou Hao asked the higher ups of Asia Television Limited to do a check-up in the hospital.
There was a statistic on the page, hoping that everyone could take a look and choose their favorite female lead.
