Chapter 242 We Are Friends, Good Friends!
"William King's strong entry into CNN TV station and the 'West Bank Current Affairs' newspaper. With the compensation lawsuit and the favorable judgment of the Federal Supreme Court, this 17-year-old boy has become one of the top ten media controllers in the United States"
As the days passed, George Jr. applied for a seizure order in the shortest possible time after the decision of the Supreme Federal Court in Washington, and then found the CIA through his father's relationship to coordinate compensation matters. (For the latest chapter, please go to: Literature Building..)
In just three days, the largest TV station on the west coast of the United States and the newspaper with the largest circulation changed owners.
Although the original owners were unwilling, but now that they themselves have been involved in the espionage case and have been unable to protect themselves, these people really have nothing to do in the face of such a robbery.
Therefore, they can only watch helplessly, and all these things of themselves have become the property of others.
In these days, major newspapers and TV media in the United States have reported on this matter, which is very eye-catching.
CNN TV has 12 channels, covering all aspects of content. It has a large audience on the west coast, and its monthly income is also very good. Under normal circumstances, its advertising revenue is about 200 million US dollars.
What surprised Kim Hyun-tae even more was that there is actually a big success in CNN TV station? People's film and television branch, dedicated to their own success? It is such a company that provides content for people's channel filming.
But thinking that CNN is controlled by the Japanese, it is understandable that such a thing happened.
The Japanese are not involved? Human industry, are they still Japanese?
This is an obvious thing.
On Saturday, Kim Hyun-tae brought his daughter, Joan, and little George to CNN.
As the new owner, Kim Hyun-tae is definitely going to show his face and swear an oath of sovereignty.
Sitting in the luxurious and spacious office, Jin Xiantai checked the documents related to the company very seriously and carefully.
"This adult film company, can we spin off and make this stuff for the image of the TV station. I think it will have a great impact."
When Jin Xiantai saw the relevant documents, he asked Qiao An worriedly.
Qiao An came over, took a look at the document in Jin Xiantai's hand,
Then put the file on the desk. To Kim Hyun-tae: "No need, this company is very profitable, especially they can provide content for the TV station's adult channel, and the income is not bad."
As an American, Joan, don't look at her as a woman. But she considers this matter on a matter-by-case basis, and she will never evaluate a matter because of her personal preferences.
So, in Qiao An's view, the success of the CNN TV station? People film and television companies, no matter what they do is not very good, but as long as it can bring benefits, it is useful.
Qiao An is not Kim Hyun-tae, she was sent by Annie to help Kim Hyun-tae, so as long as it is beneficial to Kim Hyun-tae, he will not suffer. Joan had to convince Kim Hyun-tae to accept.
Annie has already seen that Kim Hyun-tae does not have the mentality of being a capitalist at all, so this is absolutely not acceptable.
For this reason, Anne did not hesitate.
In this place in the United States, how can you not be a capitalist.
"Boss, look, this company's optical disc revenue in 2015 alone was 170 million US dollars. At the same time, the content it provided for the TV station's adult channel also brought more than 300 million yuan in pay-on-demand revenue to the TV station. Basically It can be regarded as the bulk of the income of TV stations, so there is really no need to divest it.”
It's not unreasonable for Joan to say that.
The main income of CNN TV station is two. One is advertising and the other is success? Pay-on-demand of individual channels, which is the main component of TV station revenue.
What if Kim Hyun Tae stripped off? If it is not a company, then the TV station may start to lose money. So how can this work.
Besides, advertising revenue is only $200 million a year.
But this one? The income brought by Renren Film and Television Company far exceeds the income from advertising, which can be said to be the top priority of income.
Look, CDs make $170 million a year, and the content they provide is $300 million on premium channels. This is 470 million US dollars, more than double the advertising revenue.
As long as there is money to be made, the capitalists in the United States will not care so much.
Joan knows this very well.
Even some large companies that have been listed have also set foot in this industry when they see that this industry is profitable.
This is not just done by CNN alone, many companies are involved in this aspect.
However, considering that his boss is not yet a qualified capitalist, Joan felt that it was necessary for him to remind him.
"Boss, in fact, the United States is very open in this regard, and it does not involve laws and regulations, so there is no need to spin off, as long as there is money to be made. Besides, this is still left by the Japanese. If something goes wrong in the future, Just push it to the Japanese."
Qiao An continued to work hard to persuade Jin Xiantai, hoping that he could dispel this idea.
Little George didn't say anything. After all, this was Jin Xiantai's own business. He was sitting there playing mobile games with Little Keke, and he seemed obsessed with each other.
Jin Xiantai sat up straight, and seriously considered Qiao An's words.
In all fairness, what Joan said was not unreasonable.
This is the United States, an open country, not to mention that this matter does not violate the law, and it can also bring you a lot of income.
More importantly, this company really did not create itself.
An income of 470 million US dollars a year is definitely not a small amount.
Looking back, I think about the practitioners under the CNN TV station, their monthly salary, and various expenses. If the TV station does not make money and needs to pay for it by itself, this is also a headache.
So, Kim Hyun-tae was moved by Qiao An.
"That's fine, let's not talk about this matter for the time being, the future will be what it was in the past."
Seeing that Jin Xiantai didn't insist, Qiao An smiled happily.
That's right, that's how it should be, who would have trouble with money.
Very good, now I have a bit of a capitalist attitude.
"Boss, this company's income is not limited to these, it also has a website with an annual income of more than 100 million US dollars."
Joan smiled and broke another message to Kim Hyun-tae. Even Kim Hyun-tae was surprised.
[How colorful are Yankees in different time and space? How could they make TV stations succeed? This is how a human company makes money. 】
Listening to Qiao An's words, Jin Xiantai was completely speechless.
At the same time, Jin Xiantai also understood one thing, that is, this industry is really making money.
Think of the original time and space. become? Human industry is one of the three major economic pillars of an island country, which can be seen from this.
Especially in this time and space, when the population is ten times larger, one can imagine how profitable this industry is.
"Merge the West Coast Times into the TV station, and at the same time, merge the Chinese-language TV station under my original name. It will also be merged into CNN to specialize in Chinese-language programs as the thirteenth channel."
Jin Xiantai didn't want to continue to explore this matter, he began to tell Joan about his plan.
Qiao An recorded it seriously, and then said to Jin Xiantai: "The new manager has been found, and he can come over to preside over the work this afternoon. Do you want to meet?"
Kim Hyun-tae took over CNN TV station, but he doesn't have that much experience and experience in operation, so the best way is to find a manager.
It's just a matter of a salary of millions of dollars a year, which is not a problem for Kim Hyun-tae.
Hearing this, Jin Xiantai shook his head: "No need, as long as he can manage the TV station well. It doesn't matter if he sees it or not. Tell him that if he does well this year, I'm willing to give him 10 million in salary next year." Dollars, but if it's done poorly..."
Joan nodded: "Okay, I will let someone tell him this."
Sitting on the boss chair, Jin Xiantai suddenly thought of a question, and asked, "Whiston Bank, do you have any requirements for the company's management?"
Yes, although CNN TV station was taken over by Kim Hyun-tae, he only owns 60% of the shares. The other 40% is controlled by Whiston Bank.
Although it seems that Kim Hyun-tae is the actual holding company, he also needs to take into account some feelings from Whiston Bank. Some issues related to the operation of the TV station need to be discussed with the other party.
Hearing this, Qiao An replied: "The other party said that they only need to pay dividends every year. As for managing them, they are not interested."
so good?
After hearing Qiao An's answer, Jin Xiantai was taken aback.
Because it's good for him.
After all, it would be troublesome if there was someone who pointed fingers in the course of business, no matter what.
But it's all right now. Whiston Bank said that it only needs to receive dividends every year. People don't care about the affairs of TV stations and newspapers at all.
Yes, Whiston Bank not only holds a 40% stake in CNN TV, but also holds a 40% stake in the "West Bank Current Affairs" newspaper, which can be described as the second shareholder.
"If that's the case, help me write a thank you letter to them, telling them that I will definitely make money and bring them rich returns."
Jin Xiantai asked Qiao An to write a thank you letter and express his attitude at the same time.
Joan wrote it down again.
Although there are many things about the TV station and the newspaper office, there is no need for Kim Hyun-tae to deal with every one of them. Besides, the new supervisor will take office in the afternoon, so some trivial matters can be left to that guy to worry about.
After talking with Qiao An about the TV station and newspaper, Kim Hyun-tae started to change the subject and talked about serious things.
"George, what message did your father have for me?"
That's right, after taking over CNN and "West Bank Current Affairs", Kim Hyun-tae must start to give back to George Old, this is an obvious thing, isn't it?
Little George, who was playing a mobile game, raised his head and looked at Kim Hyun-tae: "Dig deep into the dark history of conservative candidates, and start campaigning for my father. Of course, I'm going to participate in the Los Angeles city council meeting. I also hope that you can help me in this regard."
Hearing this, Kim Hyun-tae laughed: "No problem, starting from tomorrow, I guarantee that the black history of those guys will be the headlines on the front page. The second page is to call on everyone to support you, until your father and you are both successful!" I believe that the reporters of "West Bank Current Affairs" can accomplish this task, they like to dig up some interesting things, don't they?"
After getting the exact answer from Kim Hyun-tae himself, Little George was completely relieved, because earlier he was a little worried about Kim Hyun-tae crossing the river and tearing down the bridge.
After all, such a thing has not happened before.
But now it seems that Kim Hyun-tae is still a very good partner, after all, he keeps his promise, doesn't he?
Therefore, little George's sense of Kim Hyun-tae has once again improved a lot.
"So I would like to thank you on behalf of my father, and of course I am also very grateful to you."
Little George stood up, walked to the desk and stretched out his right hand.
Jin Xiantai didn't dare to take it big, he also stood up quickly, and then reached out and shook little George.
"We are all friends, aren't we? We should help each other. The days to come are still very long, and everyone should move around more in the future."
Holding little George's hand tightly, Kim Hyun-tae said this very sincerely.
Little George could hear the meaning of his words, and it was obvious that he was telling him to be more intimate in the future.
Little George couldn't be happier about this.
So Little George responded to Kim Hyun-tae with a smile: "Yes, we will walk around more in the future, and we are friends, very good friends!"
Jin Xiantai took out the checkbook, wrote a series of numbers on it, then tore off the check and handed it to Little George.
"As a friend and supporter, I would like to express my heart on your political journey and wish you the best of luck."
George Jr. was also polite, and took a look at the check.
$6 million!
Whoa!
This amount of money is not small, and it is enough to support yourself ****.
With this money, coupled with the support of CNN and "West Bank Current Affairs" in public opinion, George Jr. was immediately full of confidence in himself as a Los Angeles City Councilor.
"I already have my campaign platform, what do you think about improving the educational environment for Chinese immigrants?"
Little George put away the check, continued to smile at Kim Hyun-tae and said.
Kim Hyun-tae also had a sincere smile on his face, and replied: "It's a good campaign platform, which can help you gain favor and support from the Chinese immigration side. I'm very optimistic about it."
Little Coco has no interest in the conversation between adults.
When little George was talking with his father, Ke Ke walked aside, took out a pen and paper and began to draw.
I don't know what the little guy is drawing.
After she finished drawing, the little guy walked up to Joan, raised his little hand and poked Joan.
"Joan, I've been thinking about it for several days. How about this pajamas? Can it be my first work?"
Joan lowered his head and looked at Coco who was looking up at himself while raising his hand and waving his painting.
Kneeling down and taking Coco's painting, Joan looked at it seriously.
On the paper, Coco drew an animal pajamas. Joan could tell that it was a very cute bear costume, with round ears and a small tail.
"Look, just put it on and zip it up."
Little Coco explained to Joan a little bit.
Well!
It looks like this pajamas designed by Coco is really feasible.
Joan sensitively found that this pajamas could be made into finished products and then sold.
"I think it's okay, then let's find a chance tomorrow and try it out."
Joan whispered to Coco.
Hearing what Joan said, Little Keke suddenly became excited, and the little guy's eyes began to glow.
"Really? Wow, that's great, Keke is going to get rich." (To be continued.)
