Anderson was a little surprised now, because the question asked by the other party was something that many people would not pay attention to. In everyone's mind, a TV station is a TV station.
Where is the difference in nature?
However, Anderson switched from radio to television, so he knew what Fang Lang meant.
“What I wanted to build was a news station.”
"Since you want to get investment, how many shares do you want to get?"
Anderson looked at Fang Lang with burning eyes and said hesitantly:
"Mr. Fang, are you willing to invest in me? But I haven't found a profit model for the TV station. I don't have the capital to invest in this project.
If you really want to invest in setting up a TV station like this, I don't need shares, I'm willing to work for you. "
Fang Lang shook his head and said:
"It doesn't matter if you can't find a profitable model. I know how to make my TV station profitable. Since it's an investment, of course I have to give you shares.
I believe that the profitability of my TV station will not be lower than that of pay TV stations. So, you don't have to worry. Tell me how many shares you want. "
Anderson couldn't believe his ears. Mr. Fang actually said that he could guarantee that his profits would not be lower than those of pay TV stations.
"Mr. Fang, do you really have a way to make the TV station profitable? Can you tell me what method it is?"
Now I tell you, if you change your boss and set up a TV station in the United States, won’t it be none of my business? Therefore, Fang Lang shook his head without hesitation and said:
"I won't tell you until you build a TV station for me."
Seeing Anderson doubting himself.
"If you don't believe it, I can write this clause in the contract. If my TV station is not a free channel, I can pay you a liquidated damages of 100,000 US dollars.
This money is enough for you to return to the United States and set up a new TV station, isn't it? "
After hesitating for a long time, Anderson decided to take a gamble and nodded:
"Okay! I believe in you, Mr. Fang. I don't want the shares. I am willing to work for you and establish the first TV station in Brazil."
"Since you don't know how many shares you want, I will give you 3% of the management shares and another 2% as equity incentives.
Reward outstanding employees. However, let me make it clear first that these shares can only enjoy dividend rights and cannot be bought or sold. can you accept? "
Seeing that Fang Lang was so confident and mentioned dividends, he was obviously really confident in the TV station's profitability, and Anderson felt even more relieved.
"Okay! Mr. Fang, I have no problem!"
"As for your salary and the salary of the recruited employees, it will be 20% higher than in the United States. Can you accept it?"
Anderson, who was here, said no more, stood up directly, stretched out his hand to Fang Lang and said:
"Boss, it's a pleasure to work with you. I will go back and resign today, and within a month at the latest, I will take a complete team to Brazil to form your own TV station."
Fang Lang also stood up and shook hands with him and said:
"It's our TV station."
What we are talking about today is only TV stations, and does not include the installation of cable TV lines. Today’s TVs do not have satellite signals and require cable transmission.
The failure to find a profit point for free channels is very similar to that of many Internet start-ups in later generations. Yahoo and Netscape in the United States only discovered advertising as a way to make money after a long period of exploration.
Fang Lang notified the assistant team of Fangyuan Group responsible for connecting the assistants of "Brazil Times" to enter his office.
"Dora Barnetta, this is Mr. Anderson, the partner I found for our upcoming television station. From now on we are establishing a new media group.
The name is Fangyuan Media. "Brazil Times" and the soon-to-be-established TV station are both under the jurisdiction of the media company, and a radio station needs to be established.
To what extent has our "Brazil Times" developed now? "
Dora Barnetta is a young man of Brazilian descent. His skin is very healthy and yellow-black, and he is not tall. Graduated from the University of São Paulo, Brazil.
This university was founded in 1934. Dora Barnetta was the sixth graduate. She studied journalism and worked in a local newspaper in Sao Paulo after graduation.
After the establishment of "Brazil Times", it developed very rapidly. He joined the Brazilian Times in the second month after its establishment.
As for why Fang Lang's Fangyuan Group assistant team is male, the reason is very simple. The status of women in Brazil is too low now.
In April 1945, President Vargas legally recognized the right to vote for literate women over the age of 18.
However, there were very few Brazilian women who could read during this period.
Not to mention Brazilian women who can work in clerical jobs.
However, this period is also a period when the status of Brazilian women begins to rise rapidly.
“Boss, our Brazilian Times is now the most influential newspaper in Brazil, with a daily circulation of two million.
The editor-in-chief is considering whether to create a new publication to further occupy the market. "
When Fang Lang was in Natal, he had already discovered that the Brazilian Times was everywhere in such a remote province as Natal.
Obviously, the Brazilian Times is growing very rapidly.
However, Fang Lang's eyes are not just focused on Brazil's one-third of an acre. Think about the Murdoch Media Group in later generations, which is a global media group.
"I have no objection to starting new publications, but you have to remind them not to limit their sights to Brazil. We can also acquire American newspapers!
After our TV station is established in Brazil, Mr. Anderson can also set up a TV station in the United States! Our goal is to make Fangyuan Media a global media group.
Do you understand? "
Fang Lang said this in front of Anderson, of course to appease Anderson, but also to set more ambitious goals for everyone.
Sure enough, when Anderson heard that Fang Lang actually wanted to set up a TV station in the United States, he was overjoyed and quickly agreed:
"Boss, I still have some connections in the media industry in the United States. If necessary, I can come forward to help pave the way for the development of the group company in the United States."
Upon hearing Anderson's statement, Fang Lang was also overjoyed and said quickly:
"That's great. Barnetta, please record it. From now on, Mr. Anderson will be the vice president of Fangyuan Media Group. He will be responsible for building TV stations and assisting the development of media companies in Europe and the United States.
If you need to launch an acquisition or merger project, you can directly seek help from our Brazilian Development Bank. "
"I understand, boss. I will document your opinions immediately and send them to the group company."
Of course, Anderson was even more happy. He went directly from the editor-in-chief of NBC TV station to the vice president of a media company. This kind of progress is something that many people cannot achieve in their lifetime.
In this way, I just attended a dinner party hosted by Morgan, but in the end, I attracted the director of a TV station. It can be regarded as solving Fang Lang's worries.
This made Fang Lang feel very happy. That night, Fang Lang contacted Wan Chongxin and expressed that he wanted to experience New York's nightlife.
What else is there to say, arrange it!
That night, the Forward Bar in Manhattan, New York.
Accompanied by Wan Chongxin and Anderson, Fang Lang wanted to experience the bar culture in New York. Of course, he had never thought about having an affair, and no one asked.
But when Fang Lang was excited, he walked down the stairs and entered this bar in the basement, which was said to have a history of more than ten years!
Looking at the small stage, a singer was singing the most popular country music of this era.
Fang Lang fell into a state of confusion.
Where are the hot girls?
What about the dance floor?
What kind of performance did you take off?
The pants are off, no, the bullets are ready, and you're just going to show me this?
What I want is a passionate and crowded atmosphere!
What I want is the feeling of being surrounded by beautiful women!
What I want is the stimulation of flesh rubbing against flesh!
Now tell me this is a bar?
Several people gathered around the table and watched the performance on the small stage. Fang Lang found it very boring.
Wan Chongxin clearly saw Fang Lang's absence and said doubtfully:
"Boss, what's wrong?"
"Is this your bar?"
"yes!"
"Where's the heavy metal rock music? Where's the DJ? Where's the lights?"
As he spoke, Fang Lang reacted first, it seemed right!
Today's audio equipment is probably not as advanced as it was later, and lighting equipment and the like probably haven't appeared as they did in later generations!
It seems that I took it too much for granted.
This means that the bars of this era are not as lively and feasting as those of later generations, and the little girls of today are not as open-minded as later generations.
disappointment!
Bad review!
Seeing that the two of them wanted to continue talking, Fang Lang had completely lost interest in chatting.
He waved his hands and said:
"Forget it, it's nothing! Have a drink!"
After two glasses of wine, Fang Lang slowly lost interest while watching the singers on the stage singing music he had never heard before.
He said hello to the two of them and walked to the bathroom.
As soon as I reached the bathroom door, I was blocked by two white people!
The two of them looked at Fang Lang with disgust, and the big white man on the left cursed directly:
"Get out, yellow-skinned monkey, you are not welcome here."
Fang Lang, who was already a little depressed due to disappointment, heard this, and the anger in his heart was instantly ignited.
He raised his leg and kicked the white man on the left in the crotch.
There was only a "click" and the sound of an egg breaking.
The man bent down and squatted down, unable to stand up again.
When the man on the right saw this, he punched Fang Lang in the face.
Fang Lang lowered his head to avoid the direct punch, grabbed the outstretched wrist, and threw the opponent to the ground with an over his shoulder.
After all, Fang Lang is also a warrior who has been on the battlefield and killed enemies. These actions are basically instinctive.
In addition, the two men opposite were obviously in a state of drunkenness, so of course they could not be Fang Lang's opponents.
The movement here caused a commotion in the bar.
Before everyone could figure out what was going on, several more white people saw the white man lying on the ground and wondered whether it was appropriate for them to be friends.
He punched Fang Lang.
By the time Wan Chongxin and Jackson reacted, Fang Lang had already run into the arms of a white man and punched him in the liver.
The man fell down immediately.
Wan Chongxin and Jackson were both at a loss after seeing this formation.
But after all, Wan Chongxin also lived at the bottom of Chinatown.
Regardless of all that, he rushed directly into the battlefield.
Jackson took a look and said, good guy, the boss has been beaten up, what else can he say, just do it.
Also joined in.
Fortunately for Wan Chongxin, Jackson just went in to cause trouble. No one was hit, but he received a lot of blows.
Fortunately, the movement inside attracted the attention of the soldiers accompanying Fang Lang who were on guard outside and rushed in.
Soon, all the men surrounding Fang Lang were beaten to the ground.
