Tian Ming
In 2011, the board of directors of Star Chinese media announced the appointment of Tian Ming, former director of Oriental satellite TV, as CEO and Cao Zhigao as coo. In June 2010, the Chinese cultural industry investment fund and News Corporation reached a strategic merger and acquisition on Star TV business. Star Chinese media is a media and entertainment joint venture jointly established by the two sides. Tian Ming was previously vice president of SMG, fully responsible for the work of Oriental satellite TV and variety business. Since 2005, he has transformed the field of variety entertainment, successively served as the chief editor and director of variety Department of art channel of Oriental TV under SMG, and concurrently served as the director of Oriental satellite TV since 2009. At present, he is the CEO of star sky Chinese media, the producer of the voice of China, and the president of Canxing culture.
In August 2019, he was ranked 1511 on the Forbes Global billionaire list.
Once upon a time
Tianming high school has been studying science and engineering, because at that time, "learning mathematics and chemistry well, going all over the world are not afraid of" is becoming popular. However, Tian Ming, who has been longing to become a media man, resolutely applied for liberal arts before the college entrance examination and successfully passed the Journalism Department of Fudan University.
"For those who are determined to work in the media industry, studying in Fudan University is a dream of many people and the first turning point in my life. "Today, recalling his academic experience, Tian Ming is in high spirits," my doctoral supervisor, Professor Li Liangrong, said, "good news should be engraved on the stone tablet", which left a deep impression on me. "
After graduation in 1992, Tian Ming entered the news center of the newly established Oriental TV station. He successively served as a journalist, anchor, director of the special news department of the news and entertainment channel, and participated in the establishment of such brand news columns as "hotline paging" and "East TV wide angle". Since 2003, he has successively served as deputy director of the chief editor's office of Shanghai Media Group, chief editor of literature and art channel, and general manager of Shanghai Oriental Star Culture Development Co., Ltd.
"As a journalist, I should have a better understanding of my job as well as a better understanding of my own history. Of course, such news and media will also be remembered by history. "
Career peak
Tian Ming participated in the preparatory work of Shanghai Oriental TV station in 1992. He successively held the posts of journalist, news host and producer. He led and founded news programs such as "hotline paging" and "East TV wide angle", and won many top awards in the industry, such as China News Award. On April 24, 2009, Shanghai Wenguang news media group announced the appointment of Tian Ming, director of the group's variety department, who had successfully planned and operated such influential programs as "cheering boy" and "dancing forest conference", to be director of Dongfang satellite TV and general manager of Shanghai Dongfang satellite TV Media Co., Ltd. On June 18, shortly after Tian Ming took office, Dongfang satellite TV officially started a brand new revision, thus setting off an oriental trend with the Huangpu River and Bund customs in the Chinese TV industry.
For the revision of the Oriental satellite TV, many people exclaim that this is the entertainment storm caused by Tian Ming's playing his expertise in entertainment. Tian Ming disagrees: "the guiding concept of this revision is' news sets up the station, literature and art prospers the station, and film and television strengthens the station '. In our revised programs, news is still the top priority. From 17:00 to 19:30 p.m. every day is our news time, and the daily news time is about six times as long as the variety show. "In fact, in the revised program list of Oriental satellite TV, the reporter saw that relying on the news resources of SMG, Oriental satellite TV gathered news programs such as" see the East "," global news station "," Oriental News "," Oriental night news "," depth 105 ", and launched two new daily news programs, namely" new city "and" back interpretation ". Oriental News has expanded from 30 minutes to 60 minutes. These seven daily news files constitute the largest news page of China's satellite TV. The idea of "today's event, first look at the East vision" will be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
As some media said that the revision was completed under the leadership of Tian Ming, Tian Ming said: "not only the news programs rely on the group's news center, but also the adjustment of variety shows is completed under the overall guidance of the group. The implementation concept and implementation plan are the crystallization of the wisdom of the group and the Oriental satellite TV group. Within our group, the strength of individuals is limited, And the collective wisdom is infinite. I just said that because I am in this position, I may have to take more responsibility in the revision. To put it vividly, I am just a drop of water shining in the sunshine. "
social responsibility
Since December 2005, Tian Ming has been the director of variety Department of Shanghai Media Group and the chairman of Shanghai Oriental Star Culture Development Co., Ltd. It is also from this year that SMG began to integrate the entertainment program resources and push the "new entertainment" brand. In 2006, SMG "new entertainment" launched "come on! The programs such as good man, Wulin conference and very drama have achieved remarkable ratings and become a strong force of Chinese entertainment. The influence of Shanghai Entertainment has expanded from the region to the whole country, and from the domestic to the overseas. It has become a cultural and social phenomenon that has attracted much attention at home and abroad, and a hot topic that newspapers, television and Internet media are competing to report. This is not only the result of the efforts of Shanghai TV people, but also the realization of Shanghai TV entertainment dream and pursuit.
Different from his competitors, Tian Ming gives these programs more social responsibilities: "after all, Oriental satellite TV is a comprehensive TV station in Shanghai, an international metropolis. We hope that it represents the direction of the development of urban culture in China, with an international and cutting-edge fashion flavor. "
Therefore, since the establishment of Oriental satellite TV, it has always adhered to the tenet of "responsibility creates influence"! "Good man", firmly grasp the guidance and publicize the main melody; "come on! "Oriental angel" is closely related to the theme of the 60th anniversary of the national day and the World Expo, adhering to the concept of "green draft". After the revision, Oriental satellite TV is committed to improving the cultural connotation of variety show communication, and providing the national audience with a positive, healthy, interesting and pollution-free "green variety show".
In this regard, Tian Ming explained: "first of all, this year is the 60th anniversary of the founding of new China, and the theme has a richer connotation. All those who are positive and motivated should belong to the theme. Therefore, the variety shows of Oriental satellite TV will adhere to the combination of 'healthy and upward' and 'love to see and hear'. Secondly, the Shanghai World Expo puts forward the concept of 'harmonious city'. Under the influence of the green world of the World Expo, the variety shows of Oriental satellite TV will certainly adhere to this concept. The public's mind is becoming more and more mature, and their attitude towards variety shows is becoming more and more calm, which requires the development of Oriental satellite TV Variety shows must be 'green' in order to create a new brilliance. "
Life anecdotes
Although Tian Ming has created a great momentum for Oriental satellite TV in entertainment, he himself seems to be very low-key, and there are not many introductions and materials about him. Similarly, the work of Dongfang satellite TV in its own publicity and promotion is not outstanding. Tian Ming thinks: "it's necessary to keep a low profile, because achievements are created by everyone, but Dongfang satellite TV should not keep a low profile any more. Low profile should not be the label of such a big station as Dongfang satellite TV, let alone the reason why we are satisfied with the status quo. "
Behind Tian Ming's point of view is a series of actions to completely change this situation: on the eve of this revision, China's top directors were invited to shoot the image films of China's eastern satellite TV channel. At present, the concept film "wind from the East" directed by famous director Chen Kaige has been broadcast on China's eastern satellite TV; Vitas, the prince of Russian dolphin music, was invited to sing the identification sound of China's eastern satellite TV channel, It is unique in the channel packaging of national satellite TV.
"We invited Vitas and Wei Wei lianjue to sing the theme song" wind from the East ", Tian Ming said." many Shanghai audiences know that "wind from the East" was first sung by Wei Wei. That song was sung all over the country with the launch of Shanghai Oriental TV station in 1993. Today on both sides of the Changjiang River, we will let the song sing again, and the most powerful voice of China Satellite TV will be issued on the Oriental Pearl Tower. In addition, Orient TV has also set up advertisements in the striking positions of Shanghai Oriental Pearl TV Tower and viaducts in Shanghai, vigorously promoting this revision.
Tian Ming stressed: "we should firmly grasp the opportunity of the World Expo. As the only national comprehensive platform of our group, on the one hand, Dongfang satellite TV undertakes an important task in the publicity and reporting of the World Expo; on the other hand, it should also take advantage of the opportunity of the World Expo to go further to the whole country and even the world. "
From a journalist to a news anchor, from the director of the news department to the head of new entertainment, and now to the director of Oriental satellite TV, Tian Ming said frankly: "every time I change my job, there must be some pressure. Especially this time, I took over the task of satellite TV's revision as soon as I took office. To be honest, the pressure is not small, because the opponent is very strong. However, SMG group's support from various departments, recognition and efforts have given me enough confidence. In addition, I am also a person who likes to pursue the freshness of role transformation, so I regard every new task as a stage to practice my dream. "If you choose Oriental satellite TV, you will choose our nation's glory and dream to build your own media brand." this is SMG president Li Ruigang's hope and sustenance for Oriental satellite TV, and it is also my endeavor
