Chapter 1808 The Arms Can't Twist the Thighs
Soon, Qin Feng met Mike.
For Qin Feng, the new boss, Mike was very curious.
So young?
"Boo, Britney!" Mike screamed at Britney.
"Hello!" Britney nodded politely.
"Excuse me, if I want the TV station to be able to go on the stars and broadcast TV programs for the whole of the United States, how much will it cost?" Qin Feng asked.
"Ah, yes, yes. Generally speaking, on the satellite, you need to update some satellite signal propagation equipment, and then buy an exclusive channel on... What, you're going to be on the stars! Let's make this little TV station a national channel!" Mike exclaimed halfway through.
It's a small TV station.
Originally, it was a small county TV station. Because the population here is very small, the economy is not developed, and the TV station here does not have any excellent resources for broadcasting. It simply can't compete with the national TV stations.
As for local news and the like, that's even less.
With a small population, there are fewer news events.
So, in the end, the TV station didn't have any programs to broadcast. Without a show, there would be no advertisers, and naturally it would end up declaring bankruptcy.
Now, this new boss, who just bought it, wants to be on the star.
That's too much money, isn't it?
Of course, the other party came with Britney, so the new boss is Qin Feng. Regarding the scandal between Britney and Qin Feng, it is a well-known rumor.
Qin Feng has money, and he can indeed burn it.
But, is this appropriate?
"I just want to know, how much does it cost?" Qin Feng said.
"This, for now, if you save a little and buy some star equipment for bankrupt TV stations, it won't cost much. It's about a few tens of thousands of dollars. However, the cost of renting a channel is about hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Mike said.
In this regard, the price is not too high.
Hundreds of thousands of channel rental fees a year. Seemingly rare.
But for many TV stations, they don't necessarily want to be on the stars.
The reason is simple. Once you're on the stars, you'll have to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars more. In these years, the cost is not too much, nor is it too little. But if you want to invest and income is not proportional, then it is not appropriate.
Especially after being on the star, the competition is too fierce.
It's too difficult to compete with those ace TV stations in the United States.
Although you can't talk about stars, you have to compete with others. But your operating costs are small. Just like the previous Agenle TV station, the total annual operating cost is more than 200,000 US dollars.
This can't be supported, and if it is on the stars again, it will be even more difficult to operate.
Especially after being on the star, you need the TV station to create its own brand program. That's a big investment. Once you fail, it's over.
"You don't have to be so surprised. I just want to be on the stars. Qin Feng ignored Mike's astonishment and said lightly.
Mike smiled wryly.
"The $3-$50,000 suffrage, I think it should be solved. Mike said.
Qin Feng was slightly surprised. Unexpectedly, this one is not expensive.
In fact, this device is deliberately launched by the American company DISH (Satellite Corporation) at a relatively low price.
It's just like Sony's PS series.
Playmachines don't make money. Earn money with follow-up software.
If you buy a star device, then you must go to the star. If you don't go to the stars, it's definitely impossible.
Since that's the case, then from your follow-up star service fee, then you can't run.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. And it will rise as prices rise.
So, this star device is not expensive.
After all, it is too expensive, which hinders so many TV stations from desperately getting on the stars.
"Okay, you can help me handle this. If successful, I will continue to hire you as a special correspondent for the station. Qin Feng said with a smile.
That's a test.
"Special correspondent?" Mike was stunned.
"Well, I'll give you a special fund, and you can interview whatever you want. As long as the show has a gimmick, it can be appealing. Whatever you do, you can do it. I'll give you special funds. Qin Feng said temptingly.
Qin Feng took a look at Mike's resume before he came.
Mike is a graduate of Columbia University's School of Journalism, arguably one of the top journalism and media departments in the United States. The reason why Mike returned to his hometown was because he wanted to use his ability as a media person to help his hometown, that is, Argentle County, get out of the economic downturn.
After all, Argenle County is too small and economically underdeveloped. The people here, how to put it, are not very rich. Therefore, he hopes to rely on his own ability to help the people in the county.
Unfortunately, the economy is too sluggish and remote. So, he stayed here for three years, and he still didn't achieve anything.
And, the only TV stations went out of business.
This made him very confused.
Although he has also received admission letters from several big TV stations, his annual salary is several times this.
But he still hesitated.
After all, he is a native of Argenle, and he doesn't help his hometown, so who does it.
If he leaves easily, it will be difficult for his hometown to get out of the downturn.
So, he's waiting for a new boss. See if anyone is willing to buy the TV station. If there is, he is willing to stay.
Now, he has a new boss.
Originally, he heard that a new boss had arrived, and he came with a belly of plans.
The previous boss was too conservative and did not dare to invest in capital costs in many aspects.
This made Mike very helpless. He constructed several programs that he believed would improve the TV economy. But they were all rejected by the previous boss.
So, he hopes that this new boss can be a little more ambitious and be a little bolder.
But Qin Feng was too bold.
It's crazy to get ready to go to the stars without doing anything.
It scared him a little. I am afraid that this young boss will be too radical, which will lead to the follow-up of making ends meet and going out of business again.
"Mr. Qin, I can buy the equipment, and I'm glad you can give me such an opportunity. However, I must warn you that such a rash entry into the stars can easily cause huge financial pressure. I hope you can be cautious, steady, and follow the steps. I have a good idea for a show, and it doesn't need to be on the stars, we just need to make it. The same can be sold to other TV stations, and that can make money. Mike said seriously.
Qin Feng smiled and waved his hand.
"You'll talk about it later. You help the TV station to star first. I can still afford to pay for the stars. The key is to go to the stars. Qin Feng said, "Then you help me introduce a local guide, I want to go around here, you can help me recommend a good guide, preferably the kind with an off-road vehicle." ”
"Alright then!" Mike agreed, knowing that he couldn't twist his arm around his thigh.
