Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 435: Layout of Canadian Chinese media

After all, Xiangjiang's circle is limited, and Sydney's inexorable gossip will inevitably be faintly spread as a joke everywhere.

This made Mi Xue's desire to change the environment for her sister more and more urgent, and Tang Huan did things more thoroughly, and simply helped her move the whole family to Vancouver, and arranged a livelihood for her.

For example, Mi Xue's two younger sisters, in addition to planning to continue school, also work part-time in the radio and television stations jointly acquired by Tang Huan and Feng Yongfa.

Tang Huan made a special stay in Vancouver this time, mainly to look at the layout of this part of the industry.

Feng Yongfa has always lacked interest in the succession plan for the real estate and financial industries arranged by his father Feng Jingxi. He took advantage of the opportunity to get to know Tang Huan and actively contacted the fields of film and television.

Seeing that the eldest son was going his own way, Feng Jingxi had no choice but to acquiesce. Of course, there is no reason that Feng Yongfa's partner is Tang Huan.

After spending some time in the DreamWorks and Hollywood systems, Tang Huan asked Feng Yongfa to return to the place where he grew up—Vancouver, and use the convenience of Canadian citizenship to enter the Chinese media field.

It's the same reason. Now that you have real money in your hands, there is no need to start everything from scratch.

Feng Yongfa borrowed part of the venture capital from his father, coupled with Tang Huan's guidance and stronger financial support, and started the acquisition of capital operation.

[There are two types of goals for the first phase: radio and TV stations, both located in Vancouver, am1470 and-city TV.

am1470 was started in 1972 by immigrants of Dutch origin. The call sign "cjvb" of the station is the abbreviation of his name.

This radio station broadcasts in 18 languages. It is the first multicultural radio station in Western Canada and the third multicultural radio station in the country.

City TV is a pay TV station. The historical origin can be traced back to Vancouver's World Television. This year, I just got a regional pay TV license from the Canadian Radio, Television and Communications Commission.

The service areas of these two organizations are in British Columbia, which is the province of British Columbia to which Vancouver belongs.

The signal coverage of am1470 extends from Chile in the east, Victoria in the south, Nimo in the west, and Schömitz in the north, covering most areas of southwestern British Columbia.

The broadcasting scope of urban TV is also limited to British Columbia, serving the minority communities in the province in languages ​​such as Cantonese, Mandarin, and Punjabi.

The assets of am1470 and City TV are not large, spending less than 5 million Canadian dollars in total. It's far inferior to Li's TV that Tang Huan had acquired.

However, according to Feng Yongfa, there are not many problems.

The Cantonese program of am1470 is limited to the evening from Monday to Friday, and is broadcast under the name "Voice of Overseas Chinese".

Founded in 1973, Voice of Overseas Chinese, the owner and person in charge, is a tourism businessman named Liu Hengxin. In addition to Voice of Overseas Chinese, its group also includes Voice of Overseas Chinese Travel Agency and a fax printing company.

Liu Hengxin is quite capable, personally serving as a current affairs commentator and program host for the Voice of Overseas Chinese, and his program has also become a bridge between Chinese immigrants and mainstream Canadian society. On the one hand, he leads new immigrants to understand Canadian society and governments at all levels. Architecture. On the other hand, fight for the rights of new immigrants.

Therefore, the Voice of Overseas Chinese has received support from all parties. In addition, other Chinese-language radio stations and Chinese-language TV entertainment in Metro Vancouver have been very scarce over the years. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are spiritual food for some Chinese.

It is precisely because of such capital that when Feng Yongfa won am1470, the Voice of Overseas Chinese decided to fly solo and search for another radio frequency to broadcast.

In other words, from now on, the Chinese channel re-opened by am1470 will compete directly with the veteran Overseas Chinese Voice in Metro Vancouver.

The problem of urban TV is similar to that of the Jiayi TV that was closed down by Xiangjiang. Advertising is not allowed, and the income can only depend on the service fee of the subscriber.

As a result, not long after the city TV started broadcasting this year, the shareholders diverged due to financing and company management issues, and infighted.

Otherwise, Feng Yongfa would not take down city TV so easily.

"These problems are easy to handle." After listening to Feng Yongfa's report, Tang Huan smiled lightly, "Although am1470 needs to build a Chinese program channel from scratch to compete with the Voice of Overseas Chinese, we have the comprehensive entertainment content of Xiangjiang DreamWorks. Providers. As for the troubles encountered by city TV, in the final analysis, it is because of money, that is even less a problem."

"With DreamWorks and Media Asia TV backing, it is really easy to handle." Feng Yongfa nodded, "But I estimate that in the next few years, their profit prospects will be worrying. I am afraid that maintaining self-sufficiency will be a problem. ."

"Well... I was mentally prepared. Without the support of commercial interests, it is really difficult to operate for a long time. Then we can only rely on continuous expansion and take the road of scale."

Tang Huan pondered for a moment: "On the radio station, Vancouver's am1470 is not enough. You can go to Toronto and other cities with more Chinese people and continue to purchase. As for TV stations, city TV is still a bit too narrow. I heard that Canada is considering distributing it. You have to keep an eye on the national Chinese pay TV license."

"Don't worry, I will not be lazy for the goal of building the kingdom of Canadian Chinese media." Feng Yong laughed loudly.

"The emigration wave in Hong Kong is inevitable. Britain cannot open the door to its homeland, and Canada is bound to become the most suitable place to receive. Therefore, our media kingdom has a lot to do in the future when there are more and more Chinese." Tang Huan is determined. The conclusion is drawn.

Feng Yongfa nodded his head after hearing it, and said admiringly: "Your vision. It is really long-term. My father always praised him."

"Overwhelmed. In fact, it's not surprising. When doing business, you naturally want to be ahead and walk ahead." Tang Huan waved his hand, "In addition to the media industry, I plan to do some real estate in Vancouver. Uncle took a look at the scriptures."

"You are too modest. With diligence, you can still lack real estate consultants." After Feng Yongfa joked, he agreed.

They chatted for a while. The banquet began, and people from am1470 and City TV were present, but there were only a few dozen people, which was far inferior to the strong soldiers and horses on the Xiangjiang side.

With a wave of it, Tang Huan wrote the seven Chinese characters of "New Era Media Group" on the banner, which is regarded as an official announcement that the layout of the Canadian Chinese media platform has entered a substantive stage.

...

"You suddenly put such a heavy burden on me, I'm afraid I won't be able to carry it." Mi Xue looked worried.

"It doesn't matter, you don't have to worry about specific matters. Your main role is to represent me. There is usually nothing to do. It won't even delay you from continuing to film." Tang Huanrou comforted.

Tang Huan helped Mi Xue move her family to Vancouver. One of the purposes was to let her take over 40% of the New Era Media Group's shares on her behalf. Qinhe Strategy and Feng Yongfa each held the remaining part. Fifteen and forty-five percent.

"But your trust in me really makes me feel a little uneasy." Mi Xue sighed quietly.

"I can't believe in your conduct? If you are a man, then you are the second master Guan of Yi Bo Yuntian." Tang Huan praised sincerely.

Mi Xue chuckled, "I really wish I was a man."

"No more, it's horrible." Tang Huan turned off the bedside lamp casually.

...

After Tang Huan took the Silicon Valley One and arrived in San Francisco leisurely, the subordinates here had already arranged the various procedures for responding to the Department of Justice's anti-monopoly investigation.

Regarding this matter, Tang Huan’s attitude is very clear: investigations are okay, and active cooperation is not a problem, but if you really go to the stage of prosecution, then his team of lawyers is not vegetarian.

In fact, it is troublesome for the US Department of Justice to conduct investigations in Tang Huan, Warren Buffett, Roberto Gosida, Coca-Cola Company, Columbia Pictures, and even Hollywood as a whole. The sense of existence is even stronger.

After all, AT&T has just announced the dismantling under the mandatory order of the US Department of Justice. The US Department of Justice can be described as a terrible name.

I have to say that Steve Rose successfully blocked himself once again, and Tang Huan couldn't help feeling distressed.

Ever since, after discussing the matter with his subordinates, Tang Huan approached Spielberg and asked about the adaptation of the "e.t. Aliens" video game to see how deep Warner had fallen into this pit.

The movie "e.t. Alien" has a box office miracle in North America. What height has it reached now?

Since its full release on June 11, "e.t. Alien" has been the No. 1 weekend box office in North America for six consecutive weeks.

This result is of course not unprecedented, but don’t forget, it’s a summer vacation now, and the first weekend box office in North America means heavy real money.

The same is true of the facts. "e.t. Aliens" ranked No. 1 at the box office in these six North American weekends, with box office revenue hovering around US$12 million, which is beyond sturdy.

Moreover, the popularity of "e.t. Aliens" has driven huge peripheral economic effects. For example, toys developed by Hasbro have made a lot of money.

The following weekend, "e.t. Alien" was released by MGM, the sister company of Lianmei, in the film "Spring in the Sky", which grabbed the first spot with a box office record of nearly $12 million.

But in the next two weeks, "e.t. Aliens" returned to the top of the list, with box office results of more than $10 million.

It wasn't until the recent weekend of August 15 that "e.t. Aliens" was once again Paramount's Black Friday 3, with a box office record of more than 9 million U.S. dollars.

Obviously, the box office blowout stage of "e.t. Aliens" has passed, but it will continue to attract viewers to pay for tickets in the next few months.

In addition, there is another factor, that is, the United States has released the news that "et aliens" will cross the political barriers of the Cold War and be released in the Eastern world. I don't know how much follow-up will this film have in the box office in North America. Promoting role.

In a word, "et Alien" almost combines all the good factors into one, creating a miracle of the consumer economy. It's all about the business people not getting the light, but once they are lucky enough to catch a ride, then Desperately grabbing the best interests for themselves, Warner is now in this situation.

According to Spielberg, he took great pains in the video game adaptation of "et aliens", which can be said to be strict, and Warner took the trouble to cooperate carefully, and according to his request, specially designated the film "Bao Qibing" was successfully adapted into a video game by Howard Scott Warsaw to be responsible for the development.

But because of too much investment, too high expectations, and ea jumping out from time to time to make trouble, Atari still hasn't started work.

Speaking of this, Spielberg was a little embarrassed, "It seems that my hasty decision really annoys ea."

"It's normal to be annoyed~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but that's it, it will not have a decisive impact on Warner." Tang Huan smiled playfully, "I can even conclude that the more sour ea is doing here. Warner’s posture became happier."

"It seems, it's like this." Spielberg recalled a little, and laughed awkwardly.

"Actually, this situation is quite good." Tang Huan said leisurely: "According to our Oriental habit of dealing with people, there is room for everything, and Kang Long has regrets. I have eaten the big cake of "et aliens". Enough is enough, letting out a part is a joy for everyone."

"I am afraid that the outside world will not see your generosity." Spielberg sighed, "Up to now, it has been determined, or can be determined based on experience, Lianmei’s "Rocky 3" and "et Alien" People", MGM’s "Conan the Barbarian", "Noisy", "Spring City", a total of five movies, box office revenue of more than 100 million U.S. dollars, aroused many people's exclamation, this year you will earn Hollywood at least Half of the money. I think that the Ministry of Justice, which is conducting an antitrust investigation against you, has responded so quickly to some people’s requests because of this factor.” (To be continued...)
