Chapter 1806??Buy Your Own TV Station

Set up your own TV station?

Qin Feng grinned.

Qin Feng had never thought about this before.

However, what Britney said now touched Qin Feng's mind.

Immediately, Qin Feng went online to search.

Not to mention, although the United States prohibits private purchase of TV stations.

However, companies or institutions are allowed to purchase TV stations.

Therefore, Qin Feng only needs to set up a company to legally purchase a TV station.

When it comes to purchasing a TV station, you have several options.

One, the simplest, is to simply buy TV stations that are on public sale.

This depends on the nature of the TV station. Is it local in nature or national in nature? Usually, the TV stations for sale are local ones. Then, look at whether it’s from a big city or a small city. The price is naturally different.

Of course, the difference is not too big.

After all, whether it is a small place or a large place, if it can be sold, it means that it cannot continue to operate.

Then, its price will not be too high.

According to the past transaction history found online, the price is not high.

Basically, the cost price is mostly around one million US dollars.

Qin Feng can afford this price.

Another way is to apply for the establishment of a TV station from the beginning. Then we have to do it step by step. Relatively speaking, it is slower. The price may be cheaper.

It's just very time consuming.

Obviously, it is more appropriate to directly buy the TV stations that are on sale.

And after buying it, it’s time to operate it.

This costs money.

First of all, you need to rent a satellite channel. This depends on whether you want to broadcast it throughout the state, nationwide, or even globally. Different scales naturally have different price points.

Assuming it is a national broadcast level, then including basic administrative expenses, rent expenses, etc., it will be approximately three to four million US dollars a year.

But that's just the basics.

This most basic refers to basic TV station maintenance personnel. There are no TV hosts, reporters, etc. here.

In other words, if you are just an empty shell, if you want to ensure that it can be broadcast nationwide 24 hours a day, the annual operating cost will be three to four million US dollars.

Obviously, your TV station has to play the show. Otherwise nothing will be played.

Although, in the United States, TV stations have the final say on what programs are broadcast.

The United States' Communications Act and the First Amendment to the Constitution prohibit any organization from censoring the content of radio and television programs.

This basically stipulates that you are free to play the programs you want.

Unlike in China, there will be various restrictions.

Of course, that doesn't mean there are no restrictions at all.

After all, you can't really broadcast all kinds of anti-humanity, or obviously racist, pornographic, violence-related programs at will. So the FCC still has control over what all broadcast stations air. It can review program content censorship by issuing and renewing licenses. This is the mysterious Document No. 314.

Basically, as long as you don't broadcast programs that are obviously racist or support terrorism, then basically no one will restrain you.

So, you can play various programs at will. But producing a program involves costs.

The cost is hard to say.

Maybe you can make money, maybe you will lose a lot of money.

Of course, you can also buy some TV shows to play.

But this purchase also comes with a cost.

Calculating this, the later broadcast costs are impossible to estimate.

TV stations basically have only two sources of income.

One is from subscription membership fees.

This is based on how many subscribers you have,

How much profit is there.

Basically, every household in America subscribes to various programs.

The other one is advertising costs. This is also the main source of income for many TV stations.

In order to attract members, many subscription fees are not high.

If you don’t have great programming, then you don’t have enough revenue.

This is also the reason why so many TV stations are gradually closing down and being sold.

A TV station, if it is a national level, in terms of investment, may lose a few million dollars a year, or even tens of millions of dollars at most.

In fact, if you invest in a masterpiece, you may lose hundreds of millions of dollars.

"Teacher, let's do it. At worst, I will be the host for you, and we will also create a similar talk show. I think I can always attract some popularity. I can also attract Sister Giselle." Britney agitation said.

In Britney's opinion, she should be able to earn tens of millions of dollars a year.

In that way, as long as he is not unlucky, he can always help Qin Feng fill this hole.

If it really can't be filled, the worst possible scenario is to buy other programs in the future. When the time comes, I will help Qin Feng create a trump card program.

As long as you are famous enough and popular, you can always make money by acting as the host of a show.

"Teacher, let's do it!" Britney said seriously.

In her eyes, no matter what Qin Feng does, she will support him.

Qin Feng gave her a glittering superstar path, making her so successful.

One song can sell more than 26 million people. Moreover, the entire Internet is urging her to release a new song. Moreover, she tried to get a pre-sale link for the new song.

As a result, more than 5 million people pre-ordered the new song at a price of US$0.01.

Such support makes Britney full of confidence in herself and full of gratitude to Qin Feng.

Therefore, no matter what Qin Feng does, she will support him.

"Britney, are you really not afraid of my loss?" Qin Feng's heart was agitated.

"I'm not afraid!" Brittany giggled, "I have confidence in the teacher!"

"Okay, let's buy a TV station ourselves." Qin Feng made up his mind.

Qin Feng knew his situation.

Domestically, there is no money available. Domestic funds are in a state of equilibrium. If Qin Feng diverts domestic funds, it may lead to a funding rupture.

After all, all of my funds come from banks. If the funds are diverted and flowed out, someone might be tricking someone into doing something wrong.

Therefore, domestic funds cannot be used. As for foreign countries, they have not stabilized the industrial chain.

The only stable thing is the dividend from Nokia.

However, Nokia's dividends have been divided up by Facebook's new headquarters. If this is really going to be a loss, then Qin Feng will have no funds to mobilize.

If it doesn’t work well, we might actually fall into bankruptcy abroad.

If a foreign country goes bankrupt, it may also affect the country.

In short, it seems that Qin Feng is safe and sound now, but if something happens, it will affect the whole body.

But Qin Feng has confidence in the TV station.

Because the TV station wants to broadcast TV programs, and I have this myself.

So much!

Hey, not to mention all kinds of popular variety shows in the future, including American and British dramas that will be popular in the future, Qin Feng is very familiar with them.

You want me to lose money? nonexistent.
