Chapter 628 A new TV station was established
The news that the three TV stations were going to join forces to create a TV series had just spread, and many media outlets took notice.
They all want to know if there is any PY transaction involved.
However, the spokespersons of each TV station said that this is a normal business cooperation. In fact, many people know that this is a joint effort to suppress the new TV station that is about to be established.
"Dad, what do these three TV stations mean? Are they trying to suppress the newly established TV stations?" Superboy asked his dad at Li Chaoren's house.
They have already applied for the license of the new TV station. This matter was applied by Li Chaoren and some well-established people, including He Gambling King, Li Fuzhao and other big guys, but the leader is Li
Superman.
"It shouldn't be the case! We still have a very good relationship with these TV stations, and a new TV station will have no impact on them." Li Zegu expressed a different view. In his opinion, it would be a bit of an anti-aircraft cannon to fight against each other now.
Mosquito feeling.
I have never heard of DreamWorks taking the lead in competing against companies in the same industry, so it is very inconsistent with common sense.
…
Li Chaoren was very satisfied when he saw his two sons. Regarding the matter of applying for a TV station license, his younger son's encouragement was indispensable. Of course, he was also very concerned about this matter. It was mainly a matter of having the right to speak.
He is now considered one of the top five richest people in Xiangjiang, but his influence is not as good as that of Shao Daheng and Qiu Daheng.
Why?
The fundamental reason is that an important publicity channel is missing. Although he holds a small amount of shares in the three current TV stations, he has no say in them.
The main reason is that the major shareholders of these three TV stations all hold more than 51% of the shares. They are a group of small shareholders who only make a small amount of money in the TV stations.
But these are not what he wants. For him, with this money, it is better to build a few buildings and make more money than holding stocks of several TV stations.
In fact, although the market value of TV stations is very high, they are not very profitable. Even Hong Kong's first TV station, Zhuque TV, does not earn more than HK$4 billion every year. The basic market value and income ratio remains at 10:1.
But the most important thing is the right to speak. With a TV station, even the Hong Kong government is wary of it.
Seeing his two sons looking at him after the argument, he said: "I have called Uncle Six to confirm this matter. This is mainly because actors' salaries have increased too fast in recent years. They are uniting to resist risks."
Woolen cloth!"
"Of course, we can't rule out the element of suppression. Once they mess with us like this, it will be even more difficult for our TV station to get ahead."
He knew that this was a show of force, and it was just a countermeasure against their strong intrusion into the TV station circle.
"Dad, we are about to enter the TV station, how can we open up this situation?" Li Zegu, the eldest son, thought for a while and said.
He actually doesn't agree with setting up his own TV station. The main reason is that they are not familiar with this field at all, although his younger brother has also worked hard in the entertainment industry in the past few years and established his own film company, special effects company and game company.
However, the relationship between TV stations and these companies is not very close. It is really difficult to develop a TV station. The three TV stations in the past have more or less basic foundations.
Let’s not talk about Wireless. It was established in 1967 and has a history of more than 20 years. In the process, the development has been very good. Even at the worst time, it was on par with Li. Although
Now he has been eliminated by Suzaku TV, but his background is also unfathomable.
The predecessor of Suzaku TV was established earlier, on May 29, 1957. Although its development has been full of twists and turns, its development has been good since it was acquired by DreamWorks, which is almost the same every year.
The last thing I want to talk about is ATV. Its predecessor, Jiayi TV, has a good copyright library, and it also had the support of Suzaku TV and Wireless when it was first established.
And now that they have established a new TV station, they really have nothing.
After listening to his elder brother's words, Superboy rushed to answer: "Of course it's poaching. Shao Daheng is a bit too stingy. I think as long as we poach people aggressively, the basic framework of our TV station will be built."
"In addition, my current film company also has many talents, and some of them can be used to work in TV stations."
"Also, we can also co-produce TV series with the mainland. In this way, we can get many low-cost but relatively sophisticated TV series."
"Finally, we can sign a lot of new people at Hongfu Academy."
"In this way, the TV station's early stage will basically be solved."
He came up with several solutions in succession. He just wanted to be a media tycoon now, and a television station was indispensable, so he often encouraged his old man to set up his own television station.
He had done a lot of work before and had his own solutions to many things.
"You're poaching people before we even start business. How can we still do it in the future? Besides, Uncle Six is not a soft persimmon. He knows that we are going to set up a new TV station, so why don't people put up strong fences? I'm afraid it's already a TV station for them.
The artist should revise his contract! This way the cost for us to recruit people will not be too high."
"Furthermore, what would the Hong Kong government think if we cooperated with the mainland when the TV station was just established? The reason they asked them to set up the TV station was to give them a voice. If we rebelled, we can't imagine the consequences..."
Li Zegu said a few very fatal issues at once. He was actually a little dissatisfied with his younger brother. When DreamWorks made a lot of money from games a few years ago, Superboy got a lot of money from Superman Li.
Money enters the game industry, but the result is a lot of money and a lot of money is spent, and the games produced are crappy.
If my father hadn't found DreamWorks to cooperate with it and become its downstream game developer, I am afraid that the game company founded by his younger brother would have collapsed long ago.
The same goes for movie special effects companies, which are now gold-swallowing monsters, spending tens of millions every year.
Even the film companies don't make much money and can only break even.
But in these companies, the Li family has invested more than 3 billion Hong Kong dollars.
Now he wants to start a TV station, which in his opinion is a loss-making thing. At least for a few years, he should not think about making a profit. He must continue to invest in it to have the possibility of making a profit.
"Brother, nothing is perfect. What can you do without risks? If you don't seize this opportunity now, you will regret it if it flies away. Besides, if you do more, you will make more mistakes. If you don't do it, it is good, but only if you do it will you get rewards.", Xiao
Superman choked his brother gently.
In fact, he is a little dissatisfied with his brother who is a few years older than him. Just because he is a few years older than him, he is the future heir of the family. Why?
"Okay, let's not distinguish right from wrong when it comes to TV stations. Now we have to figure out how to develop the TV station." Li Chaoren felt a headache when he heard the words of his two sons. The personalities of the two sons were also very different.
They also put forward some different ideas from time to time, which made him a little happy as a father.
In the end, they discussed it and basically used the connections of several shareholders of New TV Station to cooperate with some small film companies and let them shoot TV series and sell them to their TV stations.
As for poaching people, don’t do it arrogantly. If you can, do it, but don’t be too ruthless. As for co-production of TV series in the Mainland, this matter should be slowed down for the time being...
Oh, what I haven’t mentioned yet is that the name of their new TV station is Phoenix TV.
"Hong Zai, Li Chaoren and others have established a new TV station. Should we suppress it? I heard that they let many film companies also shoot TV series. Will this have any impact on us?", the elder sister asked Zhao while chatting at home.
Hong said.
"Why suppress others? As long as we maintain our own advantages, are we still afraid of competition from others?"
"Besides, this is the job of so many people. Is it interesting for us to be villains in this?"
