Chapter 1355 I Have No Money

The PK game has ended, and the first step has been taken smoothly. The next part depends on Nuwa's own performance. Although Jin Xiantai can provide her with some help, giving her a relative advantage in the game, in the end It depends on Nuwa's own strength.

Fortunately, Nuwa is not an ordinary person, so Jin Xiantai doesn't need to worry too much about this aspect, so Jin Xiantai doesn't have to worry so much.

At CNN headquarters, Kim Hyuntai chatted with Qiao An in his luxurious and spacious office.

"The response now is very good. Zhang's appearance really surprised many people. Even I was stunned. Her voice is perfect and her song style is very in line with the current Americans. I have reason to believe that she can go as far as at last."

The PK match was broadcast live, so Qiao An and Kim Hyun Tae watched the entire match through real-time TV broadcast at CNN headquarters, so Qiao An spoke the truth out of emotion, without any compliment.

Even though Nuwa is a saint of China, with extremely high status and status, she is only a BOSS-level figure in China after all. As a foreigner, Qiao An cannot worship Nuwa as much as the Chinese people do.

What's more, because of Annie, Qiao An is now a demigod.

As one of the weird versions of the Generals of the Seven Seas, Qiao An, a demigod, had absolutely no need to kneel and lick Nuwa, so it was impossible for Nuwa to rely on her identity to act unscrupulously in front of Qiao An.

Both Qiao An and Nuwa herself knew this very well.

So now everyone gets along pretty well, and that's fine.

"I didn't expect her to perform so well. When I met her in China, I only knew that she was good at singing sweet songs. Although she could also sing English songs, it was really surprising that she sang so authentically. "

Jin Xiantai was also surprised by Nuwa's performance today, because he did not expect Nuwa's performance to be so amazing.

You know, as an Asian, you are inherently disadvantaged in singing English songs. No matter how good your singing is, you will still hear that it is different from the English songs sung by real Europeans and Americans.

But this problem was not reflected in Nuwa.

She gives people the impression that she is an authentic European and American girl singing English songs, and she is also the kind of European and American girl with great potential and talent, making people completely ignore her Asian identity.

Of course, Jin Xiantai and Qiao An didn't know that the reason why Nuwa was able to give people such an illusion was mainly because she cheated.

But if she does this, will Jin Xiantai and Qiao An talk about her?

Obviously not.

After all, this is considered a skill, and most people who want to cheat like this can't do it.

No matter what, Nuwa has successfully appeared on the stage of "The Voice" and successfully won the PK competition, becoming one of the top eight contestants in Los Angeles.

Next she will compete at the California state level, competing among thousands of players to become the top ten in California.

There is no way, the population base here in different time and space is large, so there are thousands of players in state-level competitions. Who makes California here in different time and space have so many cities, so this is a normal thing.

Because there are so many contestants, the schedule will inevitably be stretched, but this is indeed a good thing for Kim Hyun Tae and CNN. After all, it can attract people's attention to "The Voice" for a long time, and at the same time attract advertisers. Come and talk business.

This is a good thing that brings fame and fortune, so of course Kim Hyun Tae will not be unhappy.

"We don't have to worry so much about Zhang. She just needs to participate in the competition well and win the competition. And she is very strong. I think there will be no problem at all if she wins the top three at the state level. , so let’s talk about other things next.”

Qiao An suggested not to continue talking about Nuwa. After all, she is so strong. Although the players in California are also very powerful, they cannot be Nuwa's opponent after all.

CNN has a lot to deal with.

It's impossible for her and Jin Xiantai to always focus on Nuwa.

Jin Xiantai nodded when he heard this. He felt that what Qiao An said was not wrong at all. Nuwa did not need to be too concerned about her at all. After all, her identity and strength were there.

The contestants on "The Voice" are basically ordinary people. Although they have shown great strength, they are far behind Nuwa.

Therefore, Qiao An's inference that Nuwa can become the top three in California, Jin Xiantai personally thinks it is very reliable, and Qiao An is even modest in saying so.

"Okay, let's talk about serious business."

Jin Xiantai nodded and agreed with Qiao An.

Dare to fall in love with Nuwa, in Jin Xiantai's opinion, it is not serious.

If Nuwa herself heard what Jin Xiantai said here, God knows, she would feel uncomfortable or even lose her temper because of it.

But after all, Nuwa is not here.

After Qiao An pondered for a while, he said to Jin Xiantae: "According to market data surveys, the sales trend of toys surrounding "Kick-Ass" exceeds supply. Therefore, I personally feel that this market has great potential, and we should increase investment in developing this market. piece of business.”

Listening to Qiao An mentioning the business of film and television peripherals, Jin Xiantai did not show the slightest surprise. How could he, who has lived two lifetimes, not know how profitable this business is.

You should know that in the world you used to live in, not to mention other countries, the American company ‘Hasbro’ alone makes a lot of money every year by relying on animation and film and television peripherals.

And here in the different time and space, it is not surprising that the daughter’s “Kick-Ass” is a hit, which has led to the hot sales of peripheral products.

In fact, this trend has already appeared.

‘William Pictures’ under Kim Hyun-tae’s name produces two cartoon movies a year. As long as these cartoon movies are released, they will drive the hot sales of related peripheral products. This is an indisputable fact.

And because of the relationship with ‘William Pictures’, many Hollywood film and television companies have also seen this way to make money, so they have been prompted to develop their own cartoon movies and peripheral product channels to make money.

But in the end, Kim Hyun-tae is the one who makes the most money in this area.

After all, Kim Hyun-tae has a complete sales channel, a mature sales system and links, so if other companies learn from Kim Hyun-tae, they will not have this advantage of Kim Hyun-tae.

Speaking of Kim Hyun-tae has such an advantage, he has to thank Dave this guy.

It was Dave who sold his "California Publishing House" to Kim Hyun-tae, so Kim Hyun-tae got the relevant sales channels under "California Publishing House", as well as the sales network and transportation network of the store city.

With the help of this publishing house system, William Pictures' cartoon movie peripherals are so popular.

After all, children always go to bookstores to buy books, and in addition to buying books, bookstores now also sell peripheral products of cartoon movies, which are very attractive to children.

So, how can it not be popular.

At the same time, when launching children's meals, various brand chain fast food restaurants under Yum! Brands will also bundle a certain cartoon character and give it to children for free.

Of course, fast food restaurants can give it for free, but they need to pay for it from the product development and peripheral department of William Pictures.

It's just that Kim Hyun-tae doesn't think this business is too important. His attention is on the development of QQ and Taobao, and he ignores the development of movie peripherals.

What Qiao An has to do now is to make Jin Xiantai pay attention to this business again, and try to persuade Jin Xiantai to invest in this business.

Qiao An is very confident in persuading Jin Xiantai, because she has data that can definitely convince Jin Xiantai.

After hearing Qiao An mention this business, Jin Xiantai hesitated for a while and said, "Do you mean that I should invest money to develop the film and television peripheral products business?"

Qiao An nodded and said to Jin Xiantai seriously, "Yes, the development prospects of this business are very broad. We can't ignore this area, and many companies have begun to pay attention to this business. As a pioneer, we still have a certain advantage for the time being, but if we continue to ignore it like this, I can't guarantee that we can continue to maintain our advantages."

Indeed, the profits brought by William Pictures' film and television product peripheral development have made many film and television companies jealous.

And it also made them see that the way a movie makes money is not only through the box office share of the cinema, but also another way, and the profit is not less than the box office share.

So idiots will not learn from Jin Xiantai's approach.

But because Jin Xiantai is a pioneer, he has the advantage.

But just as Qiao An reminded him, if Jin Xiantai continues to ignore this business, then the advantage he has now will be surpassed by others in the future.

After all, other film and television companies also have the strength and ability to produce cartoon movies. It is not that you, Jin Xiantai, are the only one in the world who can produce it.

Although Jin Xiantai does not take this business very seriously, after hearing what Qiao An said, Jin Xiantai also felt that it was a pity to give up like this.

So he asked Qiao An: "I know that the profits brought by film and television peripherals are very good, but I don't know how much money it is. At the same time, how much money do you want me to invest? I need to tell you the truth. I don't have much cash on hand now. A lot of cash has been invested in the development of the transportation network."

Jin Xiantai told Qiao An that he didn't have much money on hand. He didn't think it was shameful. After all, it was a fact.

Because Jin Xiantai took out 74 billion US dollars in cash at one time for the "subprime mortgage bet", plus the need to acquire shares of "FedEx" and the capital investment in "Taobao", plus the deposit required for the "subprime mortgage bet" every month, Jin Xiantai really has no money.

But Qiao An smiled when he heard this, then took out a stack of documents from the file bag beside him and put them on the coffee table in front of him, turned to Jin Xiantai and said: "Boss, we actually still have cash on our books, it's not what you think..."
