Tang En waved his hand and said sinisterly: "Don't worry, in the history of overseas films, the development is very backward, and usually you can only develop the local market, there is no opportunity for export, and it is not worth a few dollars! Those filmmakers, either artists or nouveau riche, can't make a price, and don't dare to ask for a price." ”

In this era, apart from the United States, where else in the world are there Internet companies? Except for China, Japan, and South Korea, which are following the steps of the United States, they are exploring the Internet in confusion. Now, the whole of Europe is an Internet desert! From our Internet perspective, they are a bunch of natives!"

"What justice is needed to negotiate with the natives? History has shown us that a few words of coaxing, the force of three or five guns, can make them abandon the entire American continent. Business is business, we should shoot when it is time to act, we don't have to be soft-hearted, and we don't have to be polite!"

Kevin Turner mused: "Even if Europe is indigenous, they don't understand the existence of the Internet, and they will seriously underestimate the value of streaming rights and are willing to sell them at a low price." But what about China, Japan, and South Korea? The development of the Internet there is ...... The momentum is very good. ”

Donn smiled: "Even in the United States, Hollywood and Silicon Valley are far away, and the reason why they are involved is because they both have Wall Street capital behind them. But can the China, Japan, and South Korea film industry and the Internet industry be related? Don't worry!"

This year, among the Internet investors in the whole of Asia, only SoftBank Masayoshi Son is alone.

All Internet companies in China, Japan and South Korea, if they want to raise funds, they must either look to Wall Street or Masayoshi Son, and there is no second way to go.

Looking for the government, looking for a bank, looking for a traditional large company?

Don't.

They can't read the internet.

Even they can't understand the Internet, so film companies with little capital are naturally even more unlikely to understand the Internet.

There is even a good chance that this will happen -

I heard that Hollywood's film giant New Universal came to buy the streaming rights of the movie, and filmmakers from China, Japan and South Korea, in order to gain Hollywood's favor, gave them away for free, and Bo Shijun smiled......

This thing, in their eyes, is waste paper, and it can't generate any profit.

Even if New Universal wants to package and buy all the copyrights of the film, they may have to give it away obediently because they worship foreign countries.

Don't talk about others, Director Zhang from the mainland will definitely be able to do it.

This guy wants to go crazy thinking about Oscar.

In the past few years, it has been coal bosses who have invested in movies on the mainland, so what long-term vision do they have? They invest in movies for the sake of playing female stars, and for the sake of making quick money in the short term.

Don't care about the future at all.

Relatively speaking, the copyright of Hong Kong films is more complicated.

Most of the big bosses of the Hong Kong government have an international vision, have also dealt with Hollywood, and know the importance of film copyright.

However, it is only relatively complex.

The current Hong Kong films are half-dead and can't live anymore.

If you can sell those old films for a sum of money, why not?

It's even easier if it's just a buyout of streaming rights.

In the United States, Kevin Turner has a lot of difficulty in acquiring streaming rights to film and television works. To rent the 8,000 films, New Globe pays $60 million a year in rent.

But overseas, it's too simple.

For $20 million, you can buy out the entire copyright of at least 5,000 movies, plus 30,000 movie streaming rights!

This is of great significance for Netflix to carry out overseas business in the future!

Hollywood movies are only rental, and they are not exclusive leases.

Users can also watch these movies and TV content through other streaming platforms.

But these movies in the open sea are different, this is a complete buyout!

If you want to watch these movies, you can only come to Netflix!

No semicolons!

This exclusive supply is the best way for Netflix to dominate the world in the future!

"Okay, I got it. ”

Kevin Turner nodded, a concept map already in his mind.

Tang En thought of something, and smiled again, "By the way, when acquiring overseas film copyrights, pick those movies with good reviews, don't pack the good ones, some films, I'd rather spend money than ask for them." ”

"Ah, except for the United States, there are no antitrust provisions for the film industry, right?" said Kevin Turner.

Don pretended to sigh, "There's no way, what if Netflix makes a lot of money in the future, and the governments of all countries are red-eyed? ”

Kevin Turner couldn't stop laughing, knowing that Donn was joking.

There are too many film and television works in the world, which can reach the level of tens of millions!

New Global's acquisition of tens of thousands of units has nothing to do with monopoly.

But what Don said is very important, only buy the good ones, not the bad ones!

Isn't it a waste of time to collect so many bad movies and let users watch them?

We need to provide users with the best quality content.

Tang En waved his hand and continued: "Overseas copyrights have to be acquired, but Hollywood's work can't be broken. ”

Kevin Turner was embarrassed and said: "Except for MGM, the remaining companies are unlikely to cooperate, especially Columbia Pictures and Paramount, who are currently hostile to me......

"No, you're mistaken. ”

"Oh?"

"I'm not talking about movies, I'm talking about TV series!"

"TV series?"

Tang En said: "The rental of DVDs is mainly for movies. But streaming is different, in addition to movies, TV series, reality shows, and some classic sports events, award ceremonies, concerts, Super Bowls, etc., are all focused viewing content. ”

Kevin Turner's eyes lit up, "You mean...... Are we going to continue to buy streaming rights and reach out to TV shows, sports and major awards shows?"

"That's right. These contents have no peripheral development value, and at present, in addition to TV broadcasting, the content side cannot find any other way to make money. If we're willing to offer a sum of money to lease their streaming rights, I'd like to ...... Hey. ”

Don sinisterly laughed a few times.

New Globe spends $60 million a year to lease streaming rights to 8,000 films.

However, there is little room for development of film and television content such as TV series, classic sports games, concerts, etc., and the copyright value is very low.

You can buy it all for the least price!

Plan ahead for the future streaming business!

"How much budget do I have?"

Kevin Turner was very impressed.

Tang En said arrogantly: "Let's make it whole, the annual lease cost will reach 100 million US dollars!"

"$100 million!"

Kevin Turner was excited.

In addition to the $60 million film rights fee that has been negotiated, that is, he still has $40 million of available budget in his hand!

$40 million...... You can definitely buy a huge amount of intellectual property!

New Global has been in the streaming media business since 2003.

It is conceivable that as long as the network speed bottleneck is broken through and video websites have sprung up, Netflix will ...... Will soar into the sky!

As for now, I still have to fight Pepsi.

After Paramount's personnel adjustment failed, Lei Shidong seemed to have compromised. Kevin Turner suddenly changed the subject.

Don remained silent: "Oh?"

Kevin Turner said: "Lei Shidong recently said something about frequent visits to Wall Street and in public, which roughly means that Peskind has opened tens of thousands of directly operated stores in North America, and the business is saturated. Moreover, the business of Beskind and the business of Viacom...... There are contradictions, which are not conducive to the adjustment of the corporate tax rate. ”

Don smiled coldly, "What's the matter?

Kevin Turner nodded repeatedly, "Looks like it should be." Viacom's stock price has been a serious drag on Viacom, and he has been in frequent contact with Wall Street's major investment banks recently. ”

"Adapt to change!"

Tang En didn't care about Lei Shidong's small actions.

It's nothing but a dying throe.

Viacom, after all, will be silent in the dust of history.

If Lei Shidong hadn't provoked Tang En, maybe he would have been saved.

But provoking Don is equivalent to cutting off the last straw.

Times have changed.

The media company that will dominate the world in the future must be New Global!
