Chapter 663 648. The IP of "Fatal Note" (45)
The full name of TV2 in Hill's mouth should be TV2, the New Zealand national television station.
Just like the name, New Zealand National Television is the most powerful TV station in the country, with TV1, TV2, TV3 and C-4 and other TV stations.
Among them, TV1 is New Zealand's flagship station and the first large-scale TV station in New Zealand. It has appeared as an independent TV station since 1960 and became NZBCTV in 1969. After the disintegration of the TV station in 1975, it was renamed TV1. It is both a commercial TV station and a public TV station.
TV2, which was in contact with Hill, was established in 1975. It began broadcasting in Auckland and Christchurch on June 30, 1975, and began broadcasting in Wellington in November, and then slowly covered the whole country.
Like the big brother TV1, TV2 is also a public and commercial amphibious TV station. Compared with TV1, TV2's program planning is more inclined to attract young audiences. It mainly focuses on entertainment programs such as TV dramas and reality shows. Most of the programs All imported from the United States.
Established on November 26, 1989, TV3 is a nationwide commercial television station. Its programs are mainly entertainment, and most of the content is imported from the United States and the United Kingdom.
C-4 is a television station that focuses on entertainment programs and music videos, and is now the largest music television station in New Zealand.
Comparing with China, TV1 is similar to CCTV-1, C-4 is somewhat similar to CCTV-music channel, and TV-2 is a combination of CCTV-3 and CCTV-6.
There is now no doubt that Hill's Fatal Note will sell the rights, and since his novel was transferred to The New Zealand Newspaper for serialization, sales and reach have continued to grow.
As Wang Bo guessed at the beginning, "Fatal Note" was quickly welcomed by readers after it entered the market. It took only ten days to grab the front page of the newspaper, and it has been occupying the front page position ever since.
With the popularity of this novel, many celebrities and well-known media began to pay attention to it. New Zealand's national broadcasting channel recently reviewed local novels, and "Notes" was listed as the last detective work.
With such attention and enthusiasm, it is a certainty that "Notes" will be adapted into a big movie or TV series. Now it depends on who is more courageous and wins the right to adapt this novel.
The TV-2 channel is now mainly engaged in TV dramas. In the past, they just bought copyrights and broadcast them. Now the top executives have changed their minds. They make their own TV shows and make their own money.
Reassuring Hill, Wang Bo first used the police system to check the phone number to prevent him from being deceived. There are many scammers in New Zealand now, and fools are not enough.
The inquiry information showed that this phone number belonged to a person named Trevor Haisim, and then he checked the name and found that he was indeed a producer and quite famous.
This producer has started his career in film and television since 1984. He first filmed the documentary "Every Dancer's Dream". prize.
In 2004, he entered New Zealand National Television and was responsible for some programs of TV2 channel. In the same year, he was awarded the Lifetime Honor Award by the New Zealand Film Production and Development Association in recognition of his film "Father's Cabin" and the TV animation series "Brown". "Lan Town" has had a major impact on New Zealand's cultural undertakings.
All in all, maybe there are a lot of scammers in New Zealand, but calling Hill is not.
Wang Bo leaned on the chair and turned the pen, he pondered: "Did you discuss the price on the phone?"
"Not yet, you know I'm smarter, I don't know much about market conditions, so I used a trick to delay the attack and asked you to negotiate prices for me. I heard that mayor, your ability to negotiate prices is the best in the world. "
Seeing Hill's complacent look, Old Wang really didn't want to hit him. Does this guy have a brain? It's not right to be so skeptical, after all, a brainless person can't write a brain-burning "Fatal Note".
However, he, Old Wang, has nothing to do with the cultural circle or the film and television circle, and he doesn't know as much about copyright as Hill. How can we negotiate a price for him? !
But he has other ways, and this is the time to show his connections. After deliberation, he called the domineering president and asked him if he could find someone to inquire about the copyright price of a novel.
As soon as Battier heard it, he knew that he wanted to ask about the IP value of "Fatal Note", so he gave him a call and said that it belonged to John Barnett, he had already said hello, and he could ask with confidence.
After hanging up the phone, Wang Bo didn't know what the name represented, so he asked Hill: "John Barnett, do you know this?"
Hearing this name, Hill's eyes suddenly widened, and he gasped: "God, don't you know this name?"
Lao Wang shrugged: "I don't pay attention to your film and television industry in New Zealand at all."
Hill exclaimed: "Even if you don't pay attention, you should have heard his name, he is almost the most famous producer in New Zealand!"
"Isn't New Zealand's most famous producer Peter Jackson? Isn't it the "Lord of the Rings" series?" Old Wang looked at him suspiciously.
The fat writer blinked and continued to shout: "No, Peter is the most famous New Zealand producer in the world, and John Barnett is the most famous producer in New Zealand! If, I mean, if this call is His, then the boss, then I'm going to be arrogant!"
"Unfortunately, it wasn't him who called you."
Wang Bo searched the name of John Barnett on the Internet, and found that this person is indeed very famous, and there are many related search terms and news.
The producer is elderly. He is one of the most prolific TV producers in New Zealand. He also produces movies and entertainment shows. He has a lot of cross-border fun.
When Wang Bo attended the meeting of the four towns before, Haney recommended him to watch a long soap opera called "Shortland Street". This TV series was produced by John, and it was also the work of his South Pacific Film Company.
After confirming John Barnett's identity, he called John Barnett, and the call was quickly connected. Someone asked, "This is Mr. Barnett's private phone number. What can I do for you?"
Wang Bo coughed and said formally: "I am a friend of Mr. Good-Battier, uh, President Battier, do you know? He asked me to contact Mr. Barnett, because I have a script and he talk."
"Of course, please wait a moment."
Obviously, Battier's name is very easy to use in New Zealand, and the other party's voice immediately softened ten times.
Soon a deep voice sounded: "Hi, I'm John..."
