The TV stations to be acquired are controlled by Paramount TV company, and the operation of the TV network is entrusted to paramount United TV network company. The first batch of joint broadcasting members include paramount TV company, Hughes TV company and Hearst TV company. The development and growth of paramount United TV network depends on the actual performance after the official launch, The risks in this can not be taken lightly.

You know, although the general trend is good, there are only a few winners who have been written into the successful development history of their respective industries, and then people are familiar with them. Countless losers have become fertilizer under the surface of flowers and flowers, leaving a reputation of making wedding clothes for others at most.

In order to control the deficit of early investment, sir Gao's control hand extended from paramount TV to paramount United TV network. In other words, he further "intervened" in the professional field of TV media that Barry Diller is proud of.

Of course, this kind of "intervention" is completely different from Charles bludorn's kind of "hegemony", but puts on the cloak of "consultation" and tries to "persuade".

Barry Diller, who had been "coached" for several rounds, had arguments, but in the end, he basically obeyed.

For example, sir Gao specifically asked how paramount United television network would build momentum.

It is not hard to imagine that the "professional" team led by Barry Diller naturally hopes that the bigger the toss, the better, and make it well known. With the attention of paramount United television network, the popularity of the audience comes, which has won the favor of advertisers, with enough revenue, and the business operation has entered a virtuous circle as soon as possible.

Therefore, in the text, paramount United television network was clearly positioned as the fourth television network in the United States, and it was also the successor of Dumont, the earliest fourth television network.

Objectively speaking, it is not without sufficient basis to describe paramount United television network as the successor of Dumont television network.

Back then, in the early days of the development of American television industry, major Hollywood film companies such as Paramount Pictures, 20th Century Fox pictures, Columbia Pictures and so on all had their own ambitious layout. However, due to the times, they finally withdrew one after another and did their duty to produce program content. Among them, paramount, It holds 40% of the shares of Dumont television network and cooperates closely with Dumont television network. It is even considered by the outside world that it actually controls Dumont television network.

Starting from this origin, let paramount United TV network debut as the successor of Dumont TV network, which can really attract enough attention.

In fact, Gao Xian also attaches great importance to "inheritance" and "legal unification". For example, he maintains sufficient influence on Howard Hughes company and strong control over Gulf western company with the help of such imperial swords as Howard Hughes' valid will and Charles bludorn's close friend.

However, Gao Xian drew a fork for the publicity copy describing paramount United television network as the successor of Dumont television network, and even disapproved of paramount United television network as the fourth television network in the United States.

Because of the deep water in the Jianghu, some things can't be said to be done, and some things can't be said to be done.

Indeed, since American President Reagan came to power, the United States has entered the era of neoliberalism, pursued the style of small government, and many aspects of supervision are more "friendly" than before. IBM completely got rid of the shackles of antitrust litigation is an example, but it should not lose its vigilance.

The origin of paramount and Dumont TV networks is absolutely inseparable from the drama of the antitrust lawsuit in that year. The media industry is good at playing pen and mouth, which will certainly attract all kinds of malicious discussions.

As for the gimmick of the fourth U.S. television network, paramount United television network can take building the fourth U.S. television network as the goal, but there is no need to pull hatred in the initial stage, for fear that the three traditional television networks will not suppress it.

Whether the audience buys the content of the program or not has a great subjective factor. People provoke you casually. You're not the fourth TV network. How can the program be so bad and scold so much? Advertisers don't have much time to distinguish the authenticity.

Moreover, in the past two or three decades, so many forces trying to establish the fourth television network in the United States have ended in failure. Paramount United television network doesn't need to bake itself on the fire at the beginning, so as to restrict the specific operation.

Finally, Gao Xian concluded: "my view is that external noise is often an invisible quagmire. We should not take the initiative to jump down; for the competition of peers, we do not expect to paralyze them. As long as we let them despise them more or less, we can strive for the valuable buffer needed for development and growth."

"At the same time, paramount United television network will not stir the sensitive nerves of the Federal Communications Commission."

"Of course, in addition to the two points of pretending to be the successor of Dumont TV network and building a fourth TV network, your copywriting is very perfect. I appreciate it and support it."

Sir Gao's argument is justified. What can Barry Diller do? After all, whoever holds the money bag has the right to speak.

However, Barry Diller did not expect that the "moderate low-key" required by Gao Xian could further "intervene" in his "professional" field.

Gao Xian took a document from his assistant and shook it, "There is still a lot of pressure on the regulation of TV networks by the Federal Communications Commission. I would like to make a suggestion. At the initial stage of operation, paramount United TV network will shorten the prime time by one hour compared with the traditional three major TV networks, that is, from 8:00 to 10:00 p.m. from Monday to Saturday and from 8:00 to 11:00 p.m. on Sunday."

"In this way, we are equivalent to lowering the standard of paramount United television network and avoiding some network regulatory provisions of the Federal Communications Commission."

Many of the paramount executives sitting around the conference table secretly muttered that Sir Gao was really doing more and more business, but his courage was getting smaller and smaller.

Gao Xian continued: "The joint program of paramount United television network shall be arranged in two versions. One can be called the Standard Version, which is what you wrote in the plan; the other can be called the clean version. A certain blank shall be reserved in the part of the joint broadcast of American advertising or publicity content, so as to allow member television stations to broadcast their own local content. As for specific additional restrictions, you can We've made it. "

"It is no exaggeration to say that this flexibility in arranging joint programs can become a major feature of paramount United TV network, which is different from the three traditional TV networks. It should be an advantage to attract more TV stations to join the network."

Sir Gao's control hand is getting longer and longer, which has made people feel numb. Fortunately, to cheer them up again, Gao Xian finally stopped taking documents from his assistant's hand and said very frankly: "well, that's all I have. You don't have to worry about being stuck by me."

Everyone really breathed a sigh of relief, so that when a series of issues, including how paramount provided outsourced programs for the television stations of paramount United television network, were discussed, they were obviously more enthusiastic.

Sir Gao, with golden eyes, kept smiling. After listening carefully for a while, he casually looked at his watch, left a sentence "I have other meetings to attend", and took his assistant away.

Michael Eisner, the president in charge of film affairs, saw an opportunity, moved to Barry Diller and sat down. He whispered, "during this period, the internal adjustment of paramount is not big. I feel that many places are unreasonable. You can feel more or less at this meeting."

"It's OK, at least Sir Gao. It's no more difficult to deal with than the original boss Charles bludorn." Barry Diller looked at Michael Eisner. "You're the president in charge of the film industry now. You're promoted. Why, aren't you satisfied?"

Michael Eisner said hello and subconsciously looked at Jeffrey carsenberg sitting in the distance. "On the surface, the position has indeed been improved, but the actual power has many constraints. It's not as nourishing as Jeffrey's vice president. I even doubt whether Sir Gao has an opinion on me."

Barry Diller, who is now focused on paramount United TV, couldn't help but have a headache when he heard Michael Eisner's words about striving for power and profit. He had to be patient and reassured: "the knowledge of group structure setting is very deep. If Sir Gao is really dissatisfied with you, why put you in the important position of president in charge of the film industry?"

"By the way, now that you are the president, you should be more comprehensive than before. Don't be so deliberate when arranging your own people, so as not to be always gossip."

Michael Eisner didn't find a "bosom friend" in Barry Diller. He was knocked. He was very boring. After he promised listlessly, he found an excuse and left the conference room.
