Chapter 330
Jed had to say, he was moved.As the controlling shareholder of sbs Seoul Broadcasting, Jade has been struggling with the ratings of sbs in Korea.South Korea is now the era when the three major terrestrial broadcasters, KBS, MBC and SBS, rule the roost, but KBS naturally has inherent advantages as a national channel, and Jade has never thought of shaking KBS's position.But sbs didn't even have the qualifications to challenge MBC. As a channel initiated by the Korean Ministry of Education, it finally became a channel for the Korean cultural circle. MBC has always been known for its high-quality programs.
Although sbs has a high ratings among young people by taking advantage of Jade's relationship and control of the SM agency, but looking at the whole of Korea, it is still a bit too "little brother".Especially Jade knows that South Korea will soon release the control of national cable TV, and there will be four national cable channels that are not national channels.
These are the four major comprehensive editing channels of Maeil Broadcasting Network (mbn), Central Toyo Broadcasting Corporation (jtbc), North Korea Television Corporation (tv Chosun) and East Asia Television Corporation (ela); at the same time, kbs has the No. [-] and No. After the two or two channels, the third channel was handed over to the Ministry of Education to form EBS (Educational Broadcasting Commune), and the two major terrestrial broadcasting channels of Jingren TV (obs) will start broadcasting around this time.At that time, South Korea will be the national ratings situation where the five major terrestrial TV channels and the four major cable channels will compete. At that time, Jed really doubts whether SBS can keep the ratings market in Seoul.
And besides these eight national TV channels, there are also the nation's largest cable entertainment channel (tvn) and the largest cable news channel (ytn) in Seoul that are encroaching on the viewing market of sbs.Now that he can win the award ceremony of the Busan Film Festival, it means that he has made friends with the entire Korean film industry, especially in front of the Film Festival and the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.
Jed thought for a long time, and finally said: "Gentlemen, your conditions have already moved my heart, but I must say, it is not enough for me to convince the entire club to accept the Busan Film Festival. I know that because of SBS's foreign capital relationship, So SBS has been in an embarrassing position in your country. So if you want me to agree, these conditions are not enough."
An official who seemed to be the leader said with a smile: "Then what kind of status should be given to sbs, so that Mr. Sherman is willing to help the Busan Film Arts Festival to lobby the club with all its strength? As long as we can do it, everything can be discussed. "
"Please rest assured, gentlemen, I will never make it difficult for everyone." Jed said with a smile, "The first condition is that SBS has two national channels and three cable channel qualifications; the second condition is that, in addition to In addition to the Busan Film Arts Festival, the rights to broadcast the Blue Dragon Awards, Daejong Awards and Baeksang Arts Awards will also be handed over to sbs; the third and last condition is that the Seoul Music Awards, Asian Music Festival and Golden Disc Awards will also Give it to our sbs. How?"
"Mr. Sherman, you are too much!" Someone retorted, "Are you trying to force other stations to rebel?"
"We can't talk about any results tonight. Why don't we come to the humble house for a drink tomorrow?" Jed also knew that this occasion was not a place to talk about things. He kicked the ball to the South Korean side after setting out his own conditions.
And the leading official also blocked other people's objections and promised to visit Jed's house tomorrow.After Jed left, the official reprimanded the officer who had just gotten angry with a dark face: "Have you forgotten the purpose of our coming here? And don't forget who he is, and who you are! Park Mr. Undersecretary, I have to remind you that he is one of the people that the President is not willing to offend directly. Before I came to the United States, I asked my father to talk to Mr. Sherman with Mr. Li. He said, If Mr. Sherman is willing to cooperate with us, then each of his conditions is definitely not aimless. He may be largely for his own interests, but he will never harm the interests of his partners. So, gentlemen , we must not only regard this gentleman as our opponent at the negotiating table, but also don't forget that he will be our partner in the international film industry. If Mr. Samsung Li is right, he will definitely not let us suffer .”
The others didn't say anything more, they were well aware of this person's influence in South Korea's political arena, especially the family power behind him made everyone fearful.Although Mr. Li from Samsung can be seen on TV every day, if you want to sit down and have a cup of tea and chat with him, even the President has to make an appointment in advance.And the young official in front of him could ask his father to chat with Mr. Li, so one can imagine his identity and status.
Seeing that the others didn't make any more noise, this person sighed, "It's a pity that I offended Mr. Sherman just now. I'm afraid I will bring a gift when I visit tomorrow. Fortunately, Mr. Li told me, thank you." Mr. Sherman is very interested in ancient Chinese artworks, and he specifically told me to sell large pieces of ancient Chinese furniture or calligraphy and painting works, because Mr. Sherman is not immune to these gifts. Fortunately, my father also specifically I have prepared a pair of Mi Fu's characters, otherwise..."
This person looked at everyone coldly, and the heads of the others lowered even more.Regardless of the fact that South Korea is sometimes pro-China and sometimes anti-China, but Korean high-level officials, especially Korean aristocratic families, are very fond of Chinese culture.Of course, these people know how much Mi Fu’s writing is worth. It must have been a gift from this gentleman’s family when they planned to marry Mr. Sherman. Now that they are going to hand it over as an apology gift, it must be sacrificing the interests of the family for the interests of the country. up.As a result, these people feel even more guilty, and of course they admire this official even more.
But the official sneered in his heart, don't you people know that our family is the third largest shareholder of sbs?Now the country is suppressing SBS so much that even Mr. Li is not satisfied, let alone us?Since Mr. Sherman put forward these conditions, then naturally there are good arrangements for SBS.Also a member of the Asian Broadcasting Group, look at Asia TV and Asia Satellite TV, one is the number one in Hong Kong and even Guangdong and Guangxi, and the other is the number one in the Chinese and English channels in the Asia-Pacific region.Looking at the TV stations controlled by the Asian Broadcasting Group, Taiwan's China Television and Zhongtian are simply in full swing; Japan's Tokyo TV is also one of Japan's five major TV networks.On the contrary, SBS, which was the first to enter the Asia Broadcasting Group sequence, is useless. What is even more embarrassing is that the current CEO of Asia Broadcasting Group is still Korean.
After chatting with the Koreans for a while, Jed found Sally Redstone on purpose. Although the relationship between the two was awkward at the beginning, since Sally revitalized the cable TV business under the Viacom Group and integrated it into Viacom After Com TV Network, his confidence has increased a lot, and he is no longer jealous of his father who valued Jed.On the contrary, now Sally regards Jed as a family member, and often discusses some business strategies with Jed. On the contrary, both parties have gained a lot of benefits through cooperation.
Jed approached Sally this time because the Viacom TV network under Sally's name is one of the best cable TV content providers in North America and even the world. Since Jed put forward the conditions, he naturally wanted to think about the feasibility.Of course, Jade doesn't expect South Korea to give SBS the same treatment as KBS. You must know that KBS [-] is a news channel, while KBS [-] is mainly an educational channel for children.It doesn't make sense for Jed to have such a channel. Not only is it difficult to guarantee the ratings, but it's also not like kbs can get support funds from the government.So Jade hopes to be able to give himself a terrestrial TV channel and a comprehensive editing channel qualification; the other three cable channels will not only land in Seoul, but also in the Gyeonggi area where Seoul is located and the Incheon area where Busan is located. A must-have for three cable channels.Think about how a broken channel like obs can actually become one of the top five terrestrial broadcasts in Korea, isn't it because they have the entire viewing market in the Incheon area?
The three cable channels will launch an English news channel to serve local foreigners; a Korean news and financial channel, which will naturally be supported by Asia Satellite TV Finance; ComTV supports it.After all, the Viacom TV network has several music channels such as mtv, bet, vh1, cmt, and viva, and Viacom is also quite interested in the Korean market. tvn cried in anger.
Interesting to say, tvn is also Viacom's sufferer.In fact, the current tvn is the mtv korean channel back then. In the end, Viacom was squeezed out by the partner CJ Music Group, and the mtv korean channel was reorganized into m.Finally, in the reorganization of CJ Group, the main personnel of m were transferred to tvn to establish the main channel of CJ Media Group - tvn comprehensive entertainment channel; while m was reorganized into m Korean music channel, and at the same time established elm international Korean music channel. Streaming channels to export Korean Wave culture.For a while, elm also squeezed out many viewers of MTV Asia Channel and MTV Chinese Channel in the Greater China region.
Therefore, Sally is still very concerned about being able to return to Korea to fight against tvn. The two also specifically chatted about the future positioning of the sbs-e channel (sbs music film and television channel). Sally insisted on focusing on overseas music, supplemented by Korean wave.As for the sbs-f channel (sbs news and financial channel) and sbs-n channel (sbs English news channel), I left it to the special planning department to come up with a plan, and try to convince the Koreans when we chat tomorrow.
After the Korean returned to the hotel, the leading official immediately called his father.
After being silent for a while, his father replied: "As for the opening of the channel, you can agree to him. He is really well-informed, and he made such a condition when he learned that the ebs and compilation channels were about to open. Anyway, we bought SBS shares at the beginning to increase our voice, and it is also good for us to open more channels. As for the six award ceremonies, it is probably to scare you. No TV station can afford so many award ceremonies, I guess In the end, it would be good if he could eat two or three. The film award will give one place, after all, the old guys in the Film Festival will not be offended; the music award can give them two, anyway, the Seoul Music Festival gives them a name To be honest, the rest depends on what they want, but the Golden Disc Award is impossible. As the two major national awards in Korea, the Daejong Award and the Golden Disc Award must be hosted by kbs. You can tell him directly, This will not change, so don't let him think about it!"
