Chapter 1678: 1686

Westeros building, in a window restaurant of the super luxury house on the top floor.

The time is seven o'clock in the morning.

Angri Davis put the tableware in person and was checking to confirm that the owner's house had arrived.

Simon was followed by two konavs sisters, followed by four waitresses, two of whom were holding a little guy.

Saying good morning, angri helped the host open the seat and casually swept over the other two women. They were all radiant, which made her inexplicably envious.

In the blink of an eye, these years, the housekeeper can feel that her host is interested in her, but a little man seems to have a little more restraint on the people around her, which makes her angry. I probably understand that this is because I'm worried about them. However, she has never been a woman who can make an inch.

Three adults sat down. The waitress was just about to arrange two little guys on both sides of the man as usual, but one of them held out his hand to his mother.

After confirming with the host, the waitress sent the child to InAs on the opposite side.

In fact, it's a rare opportunity to hope that the child can be more close to her father. However, the little guy depends on herself, and InAs doesn't show any impatience at all. She gently takes the child. She was supposed to put the little guy on her legs, but a little bit is drilling towards her chest, and her two fat little hands are still holding her restlessly.

After a little tug of war with the child, InAs let the little guy do it. When the child was very satisfied and drilled into her arms, sobbing, ah, ah, then she looked up and looked at Simon with a reddish face, with some other kind of ridicule and smile: "I was thinking of cutting off the baby, but oh, Simon, he's really like you."

Maybe the waitresses in charge of taking care of the children didn't understand this joke, but angri immediately understood it. However, angri also knows that this intimate family style joke of InAs is inappropriate for a man.

It's not like being embarrassed to become angry, but it's certain to be angry.

The housekeeper can probably understand the mentality, but of course, she will not casually disclose it to any woman around her boss. She has always been very responsible.

Another waitress brought breakfast, and the housekeeper served it in person and helped the host's family divide the meals. Sure enough, he heard a little man's words that seemed irrelevant but obviously very relevant: "since you two don't get along well on weekdays, don't live together and don't affect your children."

Although they are sisters, InAs and Melania have had children since they both had children, and the signs of other signs are very obvious, as long as people around them can see it.

Simon said this, and the two sisters on the opposite side immediately looked at each other, and the smile on the corners of InAs' mouth also disappeared in a blink of an eye.

In fact, it's nothing to live separately.

In their hearts, they don't want to stay with each other anymore.

However, the sisters are very clear that when they are together, they have more attraction to men. Once they are separated, who knows if this man will come to visit them at least every oneortwo months, as he is now.

Simon didn't give the two sisters a chance to distinguish, and turned to the housekeeper beside him: "you are responsible for arranging."

Angri nodded softly.

On the surface, he is impeccable obedience, and his heart is more or less gloating.

Annoyed

Tut!

According to the housekeeper's understanding of her boss, after separation, considering the child factor, of course, he will not ignore the two women. However, it is true that, as the two sisters instinctively think, they will indeed lose some "advantage" of being one.

Simon didn't bother to pay attention to all kinds of twists and turns of the women around him. After breakfast, he began his day's work.

Today, I mainly deal with the TV Department on the east coast of daenerys.

In October, the fall episode of American TV in 2000 was basically launched, and the ratings of major platforms, whether old dramas or new films, have been confirmed.

First, ABC.

This public television network under daenerys is at a low point this year. There is only one major project left, American Idol.

And it's already the sixth season.

For reality shows, phenomenal works tend to peak around the third season, while the sixth season is usually a turning point. American Idol did not escape this rule. After the previous peak of 38million viewers in the fourth quarter, the data shrank slightly in the fifth quarter of last year, but it also kept the threshold of 35million.

In the latest season, which began on September 13, the audience of the first episode still reached 36million. However, according to the average data of the previous four episodes, the average audience of American Idol this season will be about 32million.

Maybe next year, it will turn to the threshold of 30million.

The average audience rating of 30million is still phenomenal, of course, which means that American idol is easy enough to survive ten seasons as it once was. However, for the project itself, it is obvious that the peak moment is about to pass.

Moreover, the reason why this year is a low point is that ABC has no phenomenal series that also support the audience rating besides the reality show American Idol.

ABC's previous TV series featured the true story of Song Fei. Unfortunately, after the hero completed the ninth season two years ago, he was too tired of this project and did not renew his contract. The other two dramas produced by danilis are also phenomenal. This year, they are the stories of friends and the emergency room in season 7. The broadcasting rights are on NBC and CBS respectively, and neither side has the intention to let go. In addition, ABC has not been able to cultivate other popular dramas that follow song Fei's true story for a while.

Therefore, this year's trough has been created.

After all, Simon is not too worried about it.

The reason why ABC is like this is due to danilis' overall TV operation strategy. In short, in recent years, danilis is more inclined to the development of cable TV business. For wireless network, of course, it will not be ignored, but it is not as attractive as before.

At least Simon himself can easily provide ABC with several phenomenal plays if he wants.

Simon didn't do this. On the one hand, he wanted the ABC team to play by itself. After all, the boss had to do everything, and what did so many employees do. On the other hand, Simon doesn't have enough energy after all.

However, let ABC play by itself. If you want to do elephant level projects, you still need more luck.

In the past two years, the luck is obviously not very good.

Simon is not in a hurry. He plans to see it again. He can't do it himself.

Mainly, the development of cable business has given danilis, including Simon, enough confidence.

The key is, of course, the toll cable network DHO.

Just two years after its launch, DHO has almost exploded with its strong content advantages and promotion strength. So far, in North America alone, DHO has 16 million subscribers, almost catching up with the 18million local data of its direct counterpart HBO, which has also been desperately invested in the past two years.

HBO's current advantage is only the huge overseas user base accumulated over the past ten years.

DHO has also begun to deploy overseas.

In general, in addition to its high-quality content resources accumulated over the years, the reason why DHO can expand rapidly is inseparable from the two phenomenal TV dramas launched at the same time last year, which are naturally the Mafia family and the house of cards.

Speaking of it, since the launch of the two dramas of the Mafia family and the house of cards last year, the discussion heat has been almost overwhelming, which is inseparable from the extensive marketing of danilis TV, the Internet, newspapers and other full platforms. However, the quality of the two dramas is absolutely impeccable.

Whether DHO or HBO, most of the content is still movies.

However, compared with movies, phenomenal TV series with a wide range of topics can obviously attract more audience attention, and then trigger the continuous subscription consumption of the public.

The reason why HBO once rose rapidly after 2000 is that a large number of film content is the basis, but several phenomenal TV dramas such as the Mafia family and sex and the city have helped this pay cable network become famous and attract attention, which can be said to have contributed greatly. After that, Netflix, as a streaming media giant, actually benefited from the same strategy.

This time, DHO is a beard cutting.

HBO has also followed up, but unfortunately, whether it is public television networks or pay cable networks, it needs luck to create phenomenal dramas with extremely hot topics.

Obviously, this time, HBO's luck is not very good.

In short, with the phenomenal topic effect caused by the two dramas, in just two years, at least in the North American domestic market, DHO catching up with HBO may be the next year.

The market of pay TV is limited after all. When DHO surpasses HBO, it is likely to change rapidly. HBO may not decline completely. After all, it is also backed by the huge General Electric Group. However, it is difficult to say whether it will become a second-line as Showtime once was.

And Showtime. At the beginning, daenerys wanted to acquire this toll cable network as the basis for the development of toll cable stations, but failed, so she decided to start DHO from scratch.

Now, according to various common practices, the unlucky ones are all the third ones.

The reality is the same.

In the past two years, Showtime TV station under Viacom has been the hardest place in the paid cable field.

In other words, the whole Viacom is not in a good situation.

Under the influence of Simon, a big butterfly, the Viacom group controlled by summery stone failed to win a big studio after several consecutive shots in this space-time.

Large studios that mainly produce content often play a locomotive role in media groups.

Without a powerful locomotive, big capital groups in the context of media integration have a natural influence on small and medium-sized capital. As a result, although MTV, a high-quality TV asset that makes all media giants very greedy, the whole Viacom has deteriorated in recent years.

After all, just like Showtime, Lei Shidong refused to sell it. Daenerys set up DHO itself, and its strength is completely different from that of the same level. The impact on Showtime can be imagined. The simplest one is to broadcast movies. Now, Showtime simply can't get the copyright from daenerys and the alliance's MGM and fox. Warner Brothers, obviously, is the same, This means that most Hollywood has closed the door to Showtime.

Besides, if you can't get MTV, you won't let Viacom monopolize the market of MTV for nothing

Both Time Warner and daenerys have made bets in relevant fields in recent years. Naturally, this has not only carved up the market of MTV, but also, as the world's leading music giant, its own content resources have naturally closed the door to MTV to a certain extent.

For marketing and other reasons, major record companies can now provide enough content to MTV. However, it is conceivable that once MTV gradually loses its platform advantages accumulated for many years, it is only a matter of time before the door is completely closed.

This is business competition.

In addition to the rapidly rising DHO, danilis' achievements in the field of basic cable stations have also been envied by other media giants.

Among them, there are mainly two major TV stations, ESPN and USA.

Four years ago, after reaching a unicast agreement with the American football league with a huge amount of US $9billion, ESPN soared all the way in the face of various doubts inside and outside danilis. Under the condition that its share of the cable TV platform continues to rise, subscribers are still increasing at a rate of more than 20% per year. At present, there are 110million subscribers in North America alone.

The effect of independent broadcasting is so remarkable that ESPN has gradually turned its attention to basketball, baseball and other fields.

The so-called ESPN tax has taken shape again.

Then there is USA, a basic cable network specifically aimed at female audiences. Last year, it finished a desperate housewife as a staple. However, this year, a proud son of overpass was born. Coupled with hot topics such as charming wife series and sex and the city, the attention of TV stations is no less than that of several major public television networks.

In North America, the number of subscribers of USA has also exceeded 100 million, and exceeded that of ESPN, reaching 130 million.

At the same time, the share of USA from the limited operating platform has also continued to rise. Compared with the initial 15 cents per user per month, this figure has now risen to $1.25, making it one of the few television stations in the United States with a share of more than $1 among many basic cable networks.

This means that the monthly subscription sharing revenue of USA alone reaches US $160million.

Not only that, the basic cable network, unlike the paid cable network, can also put advertisements. The subscription share and advertising revenue are about 50-50%.

Danilis' financial statements for fiscal year 2000 have been basically completed, only USA TV network, with a revenue of $3.79 billion in the past four quarters and a full year net profit of $530 million.

Compared with the entire danilis, this data does not seem to be too prominent. However, for comparison, well, apart from its own ESPN, there is no other basic cable network that can be compared with USA for the time being. Only the public television network can be used. At present, it can be regarded as CBS among the four major television networks. At present, under Westinghouse Electric, after gradually stepping out of the adjustment period of being merged by Westinghouse, the annual net profit of CBS in the latest fiscal year was only $590million.

Although CBS ranks last among the four major public television networks at present, with the strength of a cable network, USA can reach the same profit level as CBS, a public television network with a long history. You can imagine how brilliant this basic cable network is.

And USA, after all, is only a part of danilis' huge TV business. At the same time, TV business is only a part of danilis' entertainment business.

Daenerys entertainment has confirmed that it will release the full year financial report of the past fiscal year on October 19.

Even if the outside world has all kinds of high or low expectations, in any case, watching only one USA TV station, there is no doubt that this super media giant is arrogant and dominant in the same field.
