"In fact, if we want to continue, there is no big problem with this scheme, although it still needs a lot of resources to expand into a wireless TV station, such as more local base stations, more investment, etc. Father, uncle Anderson and many other people will be happy to help, and there is a successful precedent like news corporation's f station, "Claude explained immediately." but the problem is that there are several problems that can't be ignored in this plan, such as long cycle, excessive investment and high risk. We talked about News Corp. just now, you should know that Murdoch is not going to be very well
"Yes, after Charley gave me their information, I asked her to sort it out." Adrian nodded.
"Although we have advantages, there is no guarantee that this will not happen to News Corporation, and if we really face their dilemma, we will certainly not last longer." Claude said over coffee, "I'm sure there won't be a problem with your ratings. You've proven that, but there's something that can't be solved by ratings alone, ED, and you'll always run out of talent, right?"
After that, he waited quietly for a moment, waiting for Adrian to digest these things before opening his mouth again: "I realized this a few months ago, but there is no good solution, but I know that neither you nor I will give up and retreat. This is the goal we have set and are working for. I finally consulted my father, and then my father asked me why I had to expand the cable TV station into a wireless TV station when there was one in front of me? Yes, think about it. If we can successfully acquire it, we will have a qualitative improvement in both influence and discourse power. As long as you can get ABC out of the loss situation, their TV network, together with some of our CNN and TBS in our hands, we will have the strength to work with CBS in the TV network "
" a very beautiful speech. " Adrian clapped his hands as a symbol of Xing and looked at Claude with a smile. "I remember correctly, I should have told you all these before Made a mistake? "
Claude let out a long breath, and the expression on his face did not change much: "yes, I made a mistake. I watched the operation of TV media, but who didn't make a mistake? And it's better to make mistakes now than later, isn't it? "
"It's true, but I always remember that you told me that we didn't have many advantages." Adrian looked at his best friend, with a little banter and a little exasperation in his eyes, "young, lack of achievement, and so on."
"I won't forget what I said, but it can be solved now." Claude laughed. "Have you read the latest report? So you should know the ratings of millionaire
Although he uses less power in TV than in movies, he also knows that if he wants to choose the most popular TV entertainment program in September, it must be "millionaire", which was launched three weeks ago.
There are enough gimmicks - the winner can get ten thousand prize money; the atmosphere is compact - the participants have to answer a variety of simple to difficult questions to break through, and can also use many methods such as asking the audience for help to reduce the difficulty; the people friendly measures - as long as they sign up, they can participate. All this has made "millionaire" a huge hit, with 8.6 ratings in its first week, which means about 18 million people are watching.
For cable TV, this is a great achievement. Although some newspapers criticize the program as sensationalism, it can not stop the advertisers and users from m é n.
“…… Two weeks later, the ratings rose to 9.2, with nearly 20000 viewers. It may not go up again, but it should not be a problem to keep it until the end of the season. " After careful, Adrian said, this is a good thing. At this point, he casually put forward "Buffy the Vampire Hunter". He knew that Claude would definitely ask: "the vampire hunter Buffy is on the air at the same time, up to 2.5 so far, which is in line with the expected audience of more than 4 million."
"If it were broadcast on a wireless TV station, what would the ratings be?" Claude smiles and asks another question.
Adrian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he guessed the meaning of the other side: "the vampire hunter Buffy will not increase too much, after all, the audience is relatively narrow. However, it is estimated conservatively that "millionaire" will at least double "
" this is one of our chips, "Claude spread out his hands." two years ago, we really didn't have a good result, but now it's different. The senior management of ABC must understand what such a festival means to them. With you here, I can tell them that there are still a lot of such programs and TV dramas, and they will certainly seriously consider it. "
This is the audience rating of millionaire, friends, and the vampire hunter buffy. Although only 4 million people watch it, ABC still has a lot of fascination for ABC, who has not played any good TV series for a long time. These are all in front of them. What's more, they still have CNN and ABC won't I don't know, ideally, what this combination means."That's why you waited two months to tell me, didn't you?" Adrian asked, rubbing his chin.
"Yes, I want to confirm the ratings of millionaire and Buffy the vampire hunter." Claude said frankly, "I still wanted NT's situation, but now is the best time to start, and the ratings of" millionaire "and" Buffy the Vampire Hunter "are convincing enough
"And if TNT continues to succeed in the negotiation, it can further increase persuasion, right?" Adrian is such a problem, I have to admit that Claude is really good at doing things.
As for the transformation of TNT to HBO, because it is willing to spend money, Adrian told Bosworth to prepare the TV series prepared for them before "millionaire" was launched three weeks ago.
The competition of American TV series is very fierce. Almost all the TV plays that can be shot in 6 or 7 seasons are works of Jing products. Especially in the 21st century, the pace of life has been accelerated further. Fortunately, friends was shot in the early 1990s. Otherwise, it is hard to say whether such a sitcom can last ten seasons.
It's not easy to say that the production of "Yu looks at the city" is easy, because the essence of the film lies in the fashion and the unscrupulous topics among the NV people, such as bright and attractive clothes, or openly discussing the size and ability of men on TV. In short, it is a TV play that promotes NV chauvinism, and the audience is also Nvxing and the men who are curious about Nvxing.
Adrian had contacted Candice Bushnell early. At this time, Yu Wangdu had not been compiled into a book, which was distributed in her column. With the promise of publishing, the other party sold the adaptation right to him, and promised to take the lead in the adaptation of the script. As for actors, as long as they understand fashion, dress up and know how to show them on camera, it doesn't have to be Sarah Jessica Parker.
That's why it's easy to make. What's not easy is that it's the first time TNT has produced a TV series by itself. Although Adrian has arranged some people to help and contact many teams, they are not as experienced as HBO.
Of course, this can also be seen as a test. Adrian provides all kinds of convenience and resources for TNT as much as possible. If it is too bad to be made in this way, he will have to cooperate with HBO in the future.
"Yes, when we negotiate, even the restructured TNT can make achievements, and ABC will naturally be more interested." Claude nodded, the coffee was gone, and then he poured himself another.
"Well, the second question, then, is funding." Adrian changed his seat.
"Because of the right strategy, we only spent 5.5 billion yuan on the acquisition of TBS, so if we calculate carefully, we still have about 100 million yuan to use." Claude answered with a smile.
"It's impossible," Adrian said with a surprised s è. "Don't tell you you didn't spend money on those newspapers."
"Yes, but we are also making money." Claude shrugged. "Don't forget that we have foreign trade companies in Russia, Clinton's administration is forcing the yen to continue to appreciate, and this year's Mexican Peso Crisis..."
"Wait, you mean Mexican pesos?" Adrian's surprise God s è was even greater. "I remember we talked about this, and you were against it at that time."
"Yes, but what I object to is too much investment. It's OK to go in as a hot money and then go away." Claude laughed slyly. "I have to admit, Soros is a tough guy, and he can still direct in that situation."
"What about the pound in '92?" Adrian then asked, looking at him without blinking.
"A little bit, less than the peso." There was no concealment from Claude.
"You guy..." Adrian couldn't help laughing. He pointed to him and sighed.
"Well, even so, it's not enough. I remember that you expected it would cost nearly $20 billion." He immediately said, "even if we have a result that can be taken, can it be worth 100 million?"
"No, but five billion is OK." Claude then gave an answer.
"Really?"
"Don't look at yourself, ed. remember Carl Reiner, vice chairman of Viacom. He thinks your value is far more than what you show. I think that's raystone's view. My father also said, "your potential is immeasurable."
"It sounds like they're going to take me to the National Academy of Sciences and do some slicing." After that, we'll continue to say, "even if we don't have five billion dollars, we'll continue to laugh"We can finance it." Claude's answer had been prepared for a long time, but Adrian didn't show the God of surprise s è, which he had obviously expected to be the right answer.
"Whether it's my father or your uncle Anderson, they'll be happy." Said Claude softly.
"Sooner or later, of course." Adrian sighed.
Everyone knows that if you want to succeed, sharing and win-win are the best way to do it. It is with the funds and convenience provided by various groups or consortia that many people have achieved their own career. But from another point of view, this is not the opportunity for big groups and consortia to reach out into various industries?
They enter the board of directors quietly and observe everything in silence. When you can make money, they won't make any changes; but when you can't bring profits, they will start to do all kinds of things and make your company their bag. If you are dissatisfied with trying to fight back and take back your power, they will let you go. The reason why jobs was swept away by apple is that he is too arrogant, but this factor is not absent.
The media, especially TV stations, are very important to a country. Otherwise, the United States will not have the law that "non US citizens are not allowed to purchase American TV stations". Secondly, it has been said that the upper class of the United States has a half - pull - in and half - blow to the Jews, but the upper class mostly controls the traditional paper media, while the Jews have great power in emerging media such as film and television - Hollywood has been called Jewish Hollywood for more than one day or two.
Think about Adrian's uncle and his circle, and the media may become one of the breakthroughs. If Adrian and Claude do a good job, people at higher levels will reach in. That's for sure. Adrian doesn't object. This is the rule and irreversible rule. Almost every company has no exception. But now he needs to say the same thing, because only he knows what the future will be like. Even if he wants to share it, it will take at least two years.
The original plan was to expand TBS continuously and let those funds slowly and limited participate through Godfather and uncle. But if you want to purchase ABC now, with the entry of large amount of funds
"What are you thinking?" Seeing that Adrian had not spoken for a long time, Claude could not help asking.
"It's nothing," Adrian shook his fist. "You're talking about the ideal situation. Don't forget, we have to face the competition from Disney. They have been negotiating for some time. You should know what Eisner is, and we took Miramax from them."
"I know what you're worried about, but I'm not sure about 50. I won't tell you that, ED," Claude laughed. "Dinis does have advantages that we don't have, such as being rich in money, rich in resources, such as long experience; but our advantage is that we have successful experience, but they don't, don't they?"
"What if it fails?" Adrian asked, frowning slightly.
"Let's go ahead with the plan. At most, it will take a little longer. News Corporation spent 10 years, and we can't use it that long." Claude shrugged, then looked at Adrian and laughed. "I know what you're worried about, ed. don't forget where the money comes from."
"Yes, I know," Adrian did not deny, "but it's not just the godfather and my uncle, right?"
"It's better than letting in people who don't know anything about it?" Claude made a gesture, "what's more, this acquisition negotiation will take a long time, and financing can also be discussed slowly. Perhaps with the passage of time, the amount of financing may be reduced. You should know that the click through rate of Yahoo has exceeded 10000."
Adrian some unexpected pick eyebrows, he did not expect Claude has been concerned about the development of Yahoo. As early as February, he e-mailed Jerry young and David ferro, and Yahoo appeared on the Internet two months ahead of schedule, and because of him, they were originally called Yahoo. This kind of development is also very fast, coupled with Adrian from time to time through email tips, a few months later, Yahoo's click through rate reached the height that should have been at the end of the year.
According to reliable sources, the two people who founded the website have already begun to set up an ambitious company, so Adrian is ready to start. With his Stanford alumni status, it is easy to inject capital into it. If there is no problem on the way, Yahoo will be ready to go public by the end of the year, and then AC media will have more room for maneuver.
However, Adrian can make such a judgment because he can see the future of Yahoo, while Claude completely depends on his own vision. Moreover, he put forward it before he thought of it. It is quite like s è
Adrian's fingers are pounding on his desk to buy ABC? Of course, the media will not only shorten their time, but also greatly improve their quality Well, there is nothing perfect in the world. The key is whether ABC is worth his gamble.Basically, it's worth gambling if you have a 50 chance, and If it can be postponed to the end of next year, Cisco and Microsoft will give him more room to maneuver. Uncle regert will manage his fund very well. In addition, with the relationship between Godfather and uncle and the ability of Claude, even if the financing of 5 billion yuan is less than the critical value, there is no need to worry too much about the control of the company. What's more, we can sign an agreement - in fact, it's still a matter of profit. As long as we can make continuous profits, even if we have only a few percent of the shares in our hands, we can still maintain control of the company.
That's settled. Adrian closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Then he looked at Claude seriously: "well, take down the ABC www.novelhold.com , the fastest update of the webnovel!
"Yes, after Charley gave me their information, I asked her to sort it out." Adrian nodded.
"Although we have advantages, there is no guarantee that this will not happen to News Corporation, and if we really face their dilemma, we will certainly not last longer."
