And Mieko's words opened up Li Mingbao's thinking to some extent. Although he told John at the beginning that the most important thing in making this show is fairness and justice, so that the show can have long-term vitality. There is a saying that goes well: ideals are full but reality is skinny. This is what Li Mingbao is like now. Li Mingbao himself is quite optimistic about the show Millionaire, and this show has passed the test of time and can be regarded as a mature brand. But the problem is that no matter how mature a brand is, it will inevitably have some bumps and bruises when it is first created. No matter how perfect something is, there will always be troubles of one kind or another in the beginning. The problem that Li Mingbao encounters now is this kind of trouble. He really wants to ensure the fairness of the program, so the contestants now are all people who have nothing to do with 20th Century Fox, in order to prevent others from letting others Grab the handle. A good show can be easily harmed if fairness issues arise in the early stages. He doesn't want to let his short-sightedness end a show that can make him a lot of money, but the problem now is that he has to be really fair and just to host this show. According to the quality of the current contestants, a serious problem will easily occur. The problem is the ticket bounce. Delayed tickets may not be a big problem for a mature company, but for Li Mingbao, a novice programmer, it is a big problem. You know, it is not a secret in Hollywood that he is doing this show. Even many major American newspapers have published this matter. For ordinary people, maybe those newspapers wouldn't mind reporting it because there is no reporting value, but the problem is that Li Mingbao is not the kind of person who is not famous, whether in Hong Kong or in Hollywood. He is now at the height of his popularity in Hong Kong, and although he is not considered mainstream in Hollywood, it is due to Lee Ming-pao's "Home Alone" when he debuted, the highly profitable DreamWorks, and his relationship with 20th Century Fox. These things alone are enough for newspapers to dig up topics about themselves. This time, Li Mingbao switched to TV shows. With passive publicity and active disclosure from 20th Century Fox, those newspapers have been waiting to see Li Mingbao. Whether Li Mingbao succeeds or fails, it will be a big topic. Even if it doesn't make the headlines of major newspapers, it is definitely not difficult for Li Mingbao to occupy a certain space on the second page. If he dares to skip the vote, the newspapers that are negative about Li Mingbao will definitely not be stingy with their space. Even those newspapers that are optimistic about Li Mingbao may follow suit. In that case, the external environment Li Mingbao faces will not be as bad as usual. For his own sake and for the sake of his TV program production company, Li Mingbao cannot skip the show. Not only must the tickets not be missed, but a wonderful show must also be produced. When there is not much time, it will be difficult for Li Mingbao to do things according to the previous efficiency. So if there is really a crooked path to take, Li Mingbao doesn't mind taking a crooked path. As long as it doesn't cause irreversible damage to the program itself, Li Mingbao can try it. But for a while, Li Mingbao didn't know how to go about this crooked road. In addition, this topic was originally raised by his secretary Miezi. As for the so-called "one thing does not bother the two masters," Li Mingbao said it directly to Miezi. "Since you brought up this matter, it's up to you to advise on what to do. If it's done, your bonus will be doubled this month, but I have only one request. We can use some insignificant means, but in the end The important thing is that we must abide by the most basic requirement, otherwise if the leak is revealed, the show will be over. " Miezi heard Li Mingbao say this. If she does things well, her bonus this month can be doubled, and her eyes immediately light up. She was able to become Li Mingbao's secretary, and her salary was quite good. She had an income of 20,000 Hong Kong dollars a month, and bonuses were at least 3,000 Hong Kong dollars. Moreover, this was still during the probation period. After the probation period, her salary was still If it is doubled, the bonus will naturally be doubled. The bonus of three thousand became six thousand, which was also a good subsidy for Miezi. These days, even in Japan, the secretary's salary is not too high. The previous company's offer was even less than Li Mingbao's, and her boss wanted to harass her from time to time. Although Mieko didn't pay too much attention to such things, she couldn't bear the fact that her stingy boss refused to give her a salary increase despite harassment. When she comes to Li Mingbao, not only her salary is much higher, but her current boss Li Mingbao is also pretty good. Although he is not a gentleman, Li Mingbao will at least give her some compensation. In addition, Li Mingbao's own conditions are good, Miezi She wouldn't mind even if she had some beneficial activities with Li Mingbao. After allMingbao is the kind of person who is young and rich. For Miezi, he is a good support. Even if it is impossible to marry Li Mingbao, Li Mingbao will not treat her badly. As long as Li Mingbao is taken care of well, having a car and a house is definitely not a dream. Isn't it just for these things that Miezi came to be Li Mingbao's secretary? Now that she takes the initiative to share more difficulties for Li Mingbao, her status in Li Mingbao's heart will be higher in the future. Even if Li Mingbao does not increase her bonus, Miezi will not mind leaving more impressions in Li Mingbao's heart and becoming a simple vase. Where can I find a useful vase moisturizer? So after hearing what Li Mingbao said, Mieko smiled charmingly at Li Mingbao and said, "Even if we don't reveal the topic, it is very easy for us to achieve better results. We are as passive as now. When accepting and participating in a small group, we directly find those high-quality talents to participate, and we can immediately promote the progress of the program. Anyway, there are not many truly capable people in the United States, and we actively invite them. It does not violate our rules. For those who are truly capable, even if we do not reveal the questions to them, they will perform better than the average person. In fact, I think you, boss, should communicate more with Mr. John about this matter. . With his connections here, it is not difficult to find such people. When the show really gets on the right track, no one else can say anything to us if we really have normal interactions. Automatically select the contestants in advance. To be honest, it is not a big problem for ordinary people. After all, ordinary people cannot answer our questions at all. In other words, they have no basis to get money from us. Letting them participate will not actually have any impact on them. In addition, if we do this, it will not last long. When the reputation of the Millionaire program really increases, this trouble will naturally disappear, so even if others know about it. , It won¡¯t do any harm to our program team. We will do some public relations at that time and say that the first season is our pilot range, and it will work no matter what we do.¡± After hearing Miezi¡¯s words, Li Mingbao understood Miezi¡¯s approach. , is the best way for him now. Especially in times of emergency like now, doing this will do you no harm at all. If there is really any problem, it can be dismissed by just piloting it. Anyway, the TV station is in charge of the power of public opinion. In addition, when any company conducts activities, it usually has the right of final interpretation. The program "Millionaire" is no exception. Since there is such an overbearing clause with the right of final interpretation, as long as Li Mingbao and the others do not go too far, there will generally be no problem. Anyone who really wants to attack this right of final interpretation will cause a lot of trouble. After all, every company uses this kind of rights. Attacking this will easily cause public outrage. Using contacts to select contestants first is indeed a good solution. Mieko, the secretary, is really useful. So Li Mingbao smiled and had a wet kiss with Miezi, and dialed John's number while still feeling unfinished. Big Brother was invented in the United States in 1973. It has been ten years now. Its popularity in the United States is still relatively high, especially in the high-end field. People like Li Mingbao and others , basically all of them are available, so making mobile phone calls in the United States is now very easy. Even in Hong Kong, many people are using this thing now, which is not unusual. ¡°After listening to Li Mingbao¡¯s explanation, John on the other end of the phone immediately agreed to Li Mingbao¡¯s request. During this period of time, John has basically responded to Li Mingbao's requests, especially on this issue, there is no problem. After all, this show is currently stuck on the quality of the contestants. Not only Li Mingbao, the on-site supervisor, is worried, but John, the big boss, is also worried. It¡¯s just that Li Mingbao has always insisted on not using small tricks, which makes John anxious. After all, Li Mingbao is now making the decision on this project, and John naturally cannot exceed his authority. After hearing Li Mingbao's change, why would John not agree? If this show is delayed, it will not only be a disaster for Li Mingbao's production company, but also a big trouble for 20th Century Fox. After all, the broadcast time of this show has been set long ago. And the publicity has been very good, and it has aroused the interest of many Americans. If the show is delayed due to recording problems, it will be great fun. Other TV companies will be able to laugh at them. Tenth Century Fox. Now that Li Mingbao has a solution, John must of course help him. The day after calling John, John brought a group of people to the show. And this group of people were brought here according to Li Mingbao's request, and everyone was??Can be regarded as high-quality talents. And when these talents came on the show, both Li Mingbao and John intuitively felt the improvement in the quality of the show. Not only was the process of answering questions more rigorous, but many people rushed to the higher questions. There was even a really good person who answered thirteen questions before being KO. You know, this was without leaking the question to that person. The number he answered was just two questions short of winning the one million dollar grand slam.
