Chapter 369 Pacific Satellite Communication Company
The space shuttle of the United States fell, and of course the aerospace field suffered a serious blow. It is unrealistic to launch a manned spacecraft again, and we can only seek breakthroughs in other fields.
In this way, the four satellites NBC needs are crucial. At this time, what needs to be prioritized is no longer a cost factor, but restoring customer confidence seems to be more important.
"What? Are you sure?"
"Yes, this newly established company has already started soliciting business."
"Tsk, so they do need more satellites."
For smaller TV stations, it is obviously more cost-effective to rent a port. Launching a satellite is not easy, and maintenance costs are not low.
Today's NBC is so clean, the production department is gone, and the person in charge of signal transmission is gone.
Everyone believes that doing so is only worried about anti-monopoly investigations. It is an act of necessity.
It's just that NBC, which has successfully slimmed down, seems to be stronger. Not only the number of viewers in the United States is increasing, but also the number of viewers around the world.
At this level, the Ministry of Justice dare not speak at all. When cultural export is involved, no one will mention anti-monopoly at all.
Well, unless Peanutton's boss is crazy and plans to practice the Sunflower Book. Otherwise, no department will provoke NBC.
Whether it's envy or jealousy, it's too late. For this situation, the donkey is naturally extremely resentful. The only good news is that William White didn't have a clear position at all.
Or it can be said that as long as you don't provoke him, this guy is docile and harmless.
In the United States today, television has clearly become an essential appliance. Even if the price has changed slightly recently, it has not affected people's buying enthusiasm in the slightest.
This is not just a matter of the American family. Televisions are rapidly gaining popularity all over the world. Now with satellite TV, this level of popularity may be even higher.
As long as a pot cover can solve the problem, it is not too convenient. Before that, but also to install closed-circuit television.
In fact, at this point, there is no wired or wireless at all, only paid and free. In general, as long as you buy a decoder card, you can watch it for a year. If you don't want to pay, watch free channels.
"Yihua, this one seems to be good, and the fee is not very expensive."
"Yes, Lide is about to go to the stars. It's strange to say that that ghost doesn't seem to care much about it."
"Hehe, it's a big business. For a regional TV station, it's not bad to be on the star."
William White's goal is internationalization, and he will care about the market here in Xiangjiang. If the program is good, he will start a Cantonese channel in the future.
As for Shao Daheng, he doesn't care whether Wireless is the leader or not. Xiangjiang has a bigger structure, and it is good for everyone to make a fortune together.
"Boss, we have calculated it, and it seems that it is difficult to generate profits."
"Really? But I want to know why so many international capitals are interested in this capital increase and share expansion?"
"It can only be said that they are buying expectations." For Morgan Stanley, the current media industry is completely unrecognizable, and their previous experience seems to be totally useless.
I thought that the separation of production and broadcasting by NBC was just talking, but they all thought it was just a method of William White. What surprised them was that they were obviously playing for real.
Whether it's a variety show or an American drama, it's really the one with the highest price. At the same time, this newly emerged copyright company is sweeping the film libraries of major film companies.
Hollywood, the most indispensable thing is movies. You know, many movies don't have the chance to be released. These things already belong to negative equity. Now that someone buys them, it is better not to waste them.
If you want to talk about these things, those who engage in movie stations must buy them. Otherwise, why don't you show some movies for others to watch? The movie channel under NBC is actually inherently deficient. It doesn't have a huge movie library.
As for White Pictures, it was a new company after all. It may be good ten years from now, but now it is really not confident.
Kerkorian of MGM once again played the advantage of not being distressed. Fox couldn't hold on anymore, and they were actually too choked up. Since these rubbish can be exchanged for money, then don't say anything. Sell it all, as long as the price is right, you can take it from MGM.
Getting a few satellites to collect tolls in the sky, this business, no matter how you look at it, is a bit lofty. The consortium is actually very depressed, this is the channel they are best at, why did people get ahead of them?
Not making money now?
Cut, what are you afraid of, since the number of users is increasing, price increases are a must.
Isn't that how William White charges?
Otherwise, how could those small companies engage in satellite TV?
A group of guys who finally figured it out began to beat their chests and feet, thinking that this matter should be so-and-so. This bastard William White is really a bit sloppy, at least it should be hyped up.
"Hype? Filson, are they sure I need this?" Filson was speechless about the boss's pretentiousness. However, there is no way to refute it. Although it is hateful to pretend to be coercive, it is generally just a fact.
"They may have figured out the joints, and if they learned about it in advance, they would definitely increase their investment."
"Ha, they dare not to study my William White's project carefully. Is this considered ignorance? Then it's bad luck for them."
In fact, Felson wanted to say that the local tyrants in the desert trust blindly. As for those people in the foot basin, they belong to the rich and stupid. Well, even if there are various reasons, William White's strong credit is the most important reason.
Just like those venture capital firms that haunt Silicon Valley, do you really think you are investing in projects?
The two guys Jobs and Bill Gates are actually different. You haven't even graduated from college, and you really need to work harder to convince investors.
As the first public version of the 2D accelerator card, it is inevitable that it will receive widespread attention from the market. Even if the price is quite expensive, it cannot stop the enthusiasm of enthusiasts. In their opinion, with this thing, games like Monopoly can have a visual sense.
Only this time, the White system seems to have abandoned the foot basin man. Their board seems to be a product of UMC.
"William, what is this UMC, can it work?"
"Old Qiao, it may not be as good as the foot basin now, but I can't help it, the price is too expensive."
"Aren't what you sell more expensive, so you can earn less."
"You said it lightly. Doesn't my R&D team need to pay bonuses? This thing cannot be widely used. If the price of memory is effectively reduced, I will certainly seek sales."
Qiao Dashen actually just wanted to complain, this computer is cheaper there. He saw the public version of the accelerator card and was worried that his computer would not be sold.
"I said, can you focus on software? This thing seems to be more worth pondering."
"Hey, the price is too expensive, and 40 megabytes of hard disk space is not enough, how do you want me to sell software?"
"This can't help you, the technology is in the hands of IBM, and these bastards won't come out so quickly." This is really not William White's rambling, if it weren't for Seagate's support, these bastards would still want to squeeze toothpaste slowly, but I don't know why it wasn't disassembled.
To get William White to say that Big Blue has indeed hindered the progress of mankind.
