Chapter 553: 555

From 1988 to now, Denise's TV business has mainly benefited from a series of reality shows "who will be a millionaire".

In five years, the popularity of these reality shows has declined obviously.

Danielis TV has accumulated enough experience in the field of reality TV, and Simon has many classic ideas in his mind. It is reasonable that the TV Department can continue to bring forth new ideas.

Simon didn't.

Mainly to wait for Denise entertainment to get its own public television network.

Moreover, even if there is not enough stamina, the income of these reality shows is still very rich, there is no need to rush to eliminate themselves.

On the other hand, Denise TV's performance in TV series in recent years is also very good, just a "Seinfeld" is enough for the TV Department to eat for many years.

This sitcom, which has become more and more popular in the past two years, once played no less important role in the history of North American television than friends.

Even if the first round of broadcasting is completed, danielis TV will continue to make considerable profits depending on the syndicate copyright of the drama. Just like friends in my memory, in the original time and space, in order to keep the broadcasting right of friends, Nafi even paid a huge copyright fee of $100 million a year.

After the merger of MCA, Denise TV began to focus on cable TV network.

Relying on the two trumps of housewives reality show series and desperate housewives, USA TV network, jointly owned by Denise entertainment and paramount communications, has become one of the most popular basic cable networks in North America, and firmly occupies the position of professional female channel.

Fashion TV, which was launched at the beginning of the year, is not as fast growing as danielis relying on several phenomenal reality shows, nor as large as USA TV network. Since its launch, its development momentum has been very stable, and it has basically established itself in the field of basic limited TV in North America.

After the rise of cable TV industry, many cable TV stations are born in North America every year, and at the same time, a large number of cable TV stations die out.

It's definitely not as easy as it seems that fashion TV can get a firm foothold in the whole country.

On the weekend, after carefully sorting out Denise Entertainment's TV business for two days, Simon flew back to the west coast on Sunday afternoon to San Francisco.

AOL plans to officially launch its portal on Monday‘ www.aol.com ’。

Until now, it is mainly to improve its own e-mail system, which is a powerful tool for portal websites to absorb fixed customer groups.

The reason why Microsoft, which has been authorized by the business operation of e-mail technology, has not yet launched the brewing MSN portal is also in improving the layout of e-mail and other technologies. As a competitor in this field, although igritte has given the two companies technology license, it will not give more support.

Moreover, AOL has a big advantage over Microsoft.

The company has tens of millions of users, which can be directly converted to e-mail accounts. AOL team even directly omits the activation steps and automatically opens AOL mailbox by default.

Of course, the two companies that are about to launch the portal business also need to face another very important problem: how to win customers from igrit, who controls the Internet Explorer software, an important Internet portal.

In this regard, AOL also has certain advantages.

After the revision of its own network login software, this software not only logs on to the world wide web, but also expands into a mini portal interface, which is used to open IE browser and jump to AOL portal by clicking the information content on the interface.

Obviously, this kind of mini portal interface has obvious suspicion of brushing away browser software.

It's actually the same.

If igritte and AOL are not controlled by the same parent company, only this portal interface, it may trigger a tort litigation war.

Simon came forward to coordinate the matter.

After repeated negotiations, the two teams finally reached an agreement.

AOL can continue to promote this interface, but this interface should not be directly powered by browser to display content. The link must jump to IE browser software. At the same time, 50% of the recommended information on the mini interface must come from igrit portal.

Finally, AOL has to pay igritte's expensive patent fees on a regular basis.

Using the dual ownership structure, Simon firmly controls the absolute control of AOL and igritte.

The negotiation results of the two teams are, to a large extent, the embodiment of Simon's personal will.

AOL will never develop into an Internet media company in the original time and space. Instead, it will firmly lock in the positioning of Internet service provider and develop towards a more comprehensive telecom operator. This is the keynote Simon set for this company long ago.Now, the reason why the company is allowed to carry out the portal business is mainly to take the ride of the new technology wave. In the increasingly turbulent Internet bubble of

, owning the portal business is just a gimmick, which is enough to raise the share price of AOL online.

Moreover, AOL's portal business can also share the potential monopoly pressure of igrit portal.

Therefore, the majority of content related businesses of igrit portal will be opened by AOL one after another. AOL will not independently develop the core online payment system, search engine system, social network system and other tools, but plans to directly use igritte's on-site products to embed into its own site, which is also the most important clause in the cooperation agreement between the two sides.

As a result, for Simon, a latecomer, AOL's portal is basically a shell without its own core products.

Of course, capital markets don't think so.

In the view of many investors in the field of new technology, from paper media to television media and then to network media, this is a potential development trend of the media industry. Therefore, the concept of Internet media is more sought after by the capital market than the concept of technology.

AOL can find a new way to break igritte's monopoly on content, even if the two companies have a boss behind the scenes, it is also a very rare thing.

As a result, with the release of AOL's website on Monday, AOL's share price rose rapidly. By the end of the afternoon of the east coast, AOL's one-day rise reached 2.9%, and its market value reached a new high of $37.1 billion, increasing by $1.056 billion.

According to westero's 66.1% stake in AOL, after the close of the day, an analyst of Goldman Sachs posted the stock price trend chart of AOL on his Facebook page, and attached a sentence: "one day of westero: Oh, another $698 million.".

It was originally one of many similar sentiments on the Internet platform.

However, under the operation of the Facebook operation team intentionally or unintentionally, the news was directly put on the hot label.

Subsequently, Sandra Bullock's article was forwarded and commented, which caused more extensive discussion.

The actress, who is known to be Simon's personal friend, has a smile and cry on her face after forwarding: "forget it, I need 175 years to earn so much.".

Then there was a series of queues.

Both star authentication users and ordinary users have joined the discussion.

"After all, I need 3826 years to earn so much."

"After all, I need 861 years to earn so much."

"After all, I need 99 years to earn so much."

"After all, I need 12663 years to earn so much."

"After all, I need 26453 years to earn so much. "

" calculate... "

‘……’

In the next few days, the discussion quickly spread from the Internet platform to the traditional media. Both serious financial newspapers and humorous talk shows were discussing how long it would take to earn $698 million.

As a result, everyone was a little sad and turned into a river.

A sense of powerlessness.

It's almost everyone's real feeling.

If it's someone else, it may lead to a wide debate about the gap between the rich and the poor.

However, Simon in many people's eyes, has been completely an anomaly, completely unable to use common sense to speculate.

If it's a group, such as Wall Street bankers or silicon valley upstarts, who have skyrocketed in wealth, they may be able to "rob the rich and help the poor" through tax adjustment.

Now, it's just one person.

It's impossible for the federal government to impose restrictions on one person too directly.

After years of accumulation, it's not just personal wealth. Simon westero also has considerable influence in federal politics, which can be seen from the last trip of the new president to Silicon Valley. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for this young man to be a person who can be manipulated by others.

As a result, some media can only call on a guy to give more money to charity and give back to the society.

In recent years, the Simon & Janet westero foundation has been making great efforts to promote charity. Compared with many rich people who rush to start charity projects to maintain their reputation after being watched by the media, the Westeros are absolutely generous, which is also beyond criticism.

This small storm of public opinion, the final result is still just to let more capital pay attention to the field of new technology.

Hollywood.

Another week of summer vacation passed quickly.

From May 21 to May 27, this week's heaviest Sylvester Stallone's new film "the great wind of the mountains" failed producer Columbia Pictures at the box office in the first week. Compared with the box office expectations of $35 million to $40 million in the first week, in fact, it only earned $25.02 million in seven days.Considering that Superman on June 4, even if the next week's decline can be maintained in a fairly good range, the total North American box office of Jueling Xiongfeng is likely to reach only $70 million to $80 million.

However, this blockbuster bomb costs $70 million just to make.

Colombia is relatively stingy in publicity, but it has also invested 20 million yuan.

With a total production and distribution cost of US $90 million, it will take us $250 million to US $300 million worldwide to recover the initial investment through the box office.

The box office in North America is only expected to reach 70 million US dollars, and it is unlikely that the global box office of "Jue Ling Xiong Feng" will reach 250 million US dollars. You know, in the past, Sylvester Stallone may still have a strong box office appeal in the overseas market, but now, especially in this summer season, Superman's competitiveness is stronger. It's not only in North America, but this superhero blockbuster is bound to squeeze the overseas survival space of the movie.

Although it is not very difficult to recover the cost through Omni channel operation, for Colombia, this project is basically in vain.

Comparatively speaking, Sylvester Stallone is the biggest winner of the project, taking away a huge film reward of $15 million comfortably.

Of course, both in this time and space, and in Simon's memory, Stallone's popularity has been greatly reduced since the great wind of the mountains. No heavyweight film has been produced since then. It was not until many years later that he gathered a group of old men to build the expendables series that he regained some vitality.

The comedy made in America, starring ubie Goldberg, took the second place at the box office this week, with 14.1 million in seven days.

"Made in America" is far from being compared with last year's "nuns are crazy" in terms of word-of-mouth and box office. It is estimated that the total box office in North America will be between 40 million and 50 million US dollars.

In addition to the two new films, Simon pays more attention to the biography of Bruce Lee released by new world pictures on May 14.

The production cost of the $14 million biographical film was $12.96 million in the first week of its production. The box office of the second week on May 21 fell by 37% and closed at $8.12 million. In two weeks, the total box office was $21.08 million, and the total box office is expected to be about $35 million. Only the North American distribution can roughly recover the cost.

Moreover, this movie was actually developed together with the fight game of the same name.

The two series of works also launched publicity.

At the same time when it was released on May 14, Nintendo platform's fight game of the same name "Bruce Lee" was officially launched in North America and Asia. Relying on Bruce Lee's popularity in North America and Asia, the sales volume of the game cassette in the first week reached 260000 boxes, and the total sales volume is expected to reach 1.5 million, with the sales volume about 90 million US dollars.

Obviously, Denise Entertainment's profit from the game of the same name is much bigger than that of the movie project.

On May 28, in the new week, there are two heavyweight films in North American cinema. They are super Mario Brothers adapted from Nintendo phenomenal video game by Disney and fairy tale ending developed by film studio, an independent animation company.

The story of Super Mario Brothers needs no more words.

However, the high production cost of $48 million is a huge hole for Simon, because he doesn't have much information about the film in his memory.

The other "fairy tale ending" is also very interesting.

This is a follow-up animated film about snow white. The plot is about the story of the prince and the princess after they live together.

"Fairy tale ending" was actually developed in 1990. Originally, it was called "Snow White: fairy tale ending", but of course, Disney disagreed, thinking that it might be misunderstood as the sequel of Disney's classic animation "Snow White". Therefore, it had a lawsuit with film studio for more than two years, and the final result was that the film was renamed "fairy tale ending" directly It's only now.

Simon didn't pay much attention to the two films that were almost destined to hit the streets. This weekend, it was sigram group of Canada that quietly launched a trial acquisition of paramount communications that attracted Simon's attention.
