Chapter 124: Differences in Film and Television(2/2)
"Damn capitalists." Ronald cursed.
"Huh??" Gerald was stunned.
"I'm talking about those Wall Street capitalists who instigated TV stations to artificially prolong the crisis." Ronald found that this sentence could easily cause misunderstanding, so he immediately explained a few words.
“Do you have any spare production capacity here, or a production company that is not regulated by the Writers Guild of America?”
"Huh? Of course I do, what kind do you need?" Ronald thought to himself, does Gerald have any production work that he wants to subcontract to himself?
"There are also differences among the three major TV networks. NBC is the toughest. ABC and Paramount do not have the kind of talk shows to fill their time slots. These TV stations, which use TV series as their main weapon to attract viewers, actually want the strike to end as soon as possible.
It's just that it's inconvenient for them due to some rules of TV station management.
The general manager of ABC came to me. The old TV series they bought from CBS some time ago, The Big Deal, had good ratings, so they came up with the idea of making a new version. He came to me and wanted to take advantage of my relationship with the BBC in purchasing TV series.
We have established a good relationship and collaborated with a British television production company to film the film.
But now the BBC, and ITV people are raising prices, are there any other places here that have English production capabilities?" Gerald took a sip of wine, if he could find a better quality and cheaper one with Ronald, which would not be affected by screenwriters.
The production capabilities under the jurisdiction of the association are very profitable."
