For thousands of years, in the east of the world, China has been the only master.

However, with the decline of modern times and the strong invasion of the Western world, China lost its position more than a hundred years ago.

And in such a short period of time, it is only a short moment in the long river of history. Japan, an island nation located in the east, took advantage of the situation and tried to snatch the leadership of the eastern world from the hands of China.

In times of war, they almost literally did. However, the final result is known to everyone, not only were the Japanese themselves beaten to the bone, but even their own homeland was occupied and became an alternative colony.

As China recovers again, Japan, which is unwilling to lose this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, has been looking for trouble for China. Moreover, under the banner of economic cooperation, they are constantly encroaching on China's economy, and various kinds of investment are continuous.

Businessmen are all about making money, and the Japanese are no exception.

The show in Zhang Fan's hands is so popular, and the Japanese are also very tempted to see it. They had planned to discuss with Zhang Fan about buying the copyright of the draft, but they didn't expect that before they could act, Zhang Fan actually came up with a more popular show!

The Japanese worship the strong, and the strong in this business age are naturally the rich. The Japanese prefer the show of who can become a millionaire more than the national draft.

If someone likes to watch it, there will be ratings, and if there are ratings, there will be a lot of income! The Japanese also want to win this show.

The nature of the Japanese is to take advantage of small things, and they originally wanted to do this kind of show on their own. But Zhang Fan has already registered the copyright worldwide, so they can only find Zhang Fan to buy it.

Judging from the hot ratings of this show, it is inevitable to pay a huge price if you want to buy the copyright from Zhang Fan. The Japanese don't want to pay so much money, they are ready to use other ways to take down Zhang Fan.

Zhang Fan, who didn't know that he had been targeted by the Japanese, was dealing with the peeping eyes of the other side at this time.

National television, conference room.

Zhang Fan, who came here again, did not come to do the show, but because the national television station suddenly said that there was a problem with the previous contract and asked to revise the contract.

Zhang Fan knew that they would do this kind of thing, so he came here with his company's lawyer with the contract text.

"When the show was approved before, it didn't say that there was a million prize money. "When it comes to things that don't deal with Zhang Fan, Deputy Director Qi has always been the most enthusiastic one. This time, Taili also took the opportunity to hand over this matter to him to do: "You guys are cheating!"

Looking at Deputy Director Qi who was struggling to knock on the table in front of him, Zhang Fan casually opened the contract text in front of him, "The contract is clearly written, this program is a prize quiz type, and prizes will be distributed in the program." Is Vice Director Qi unable to understand the meaning of this sentence because he has not learned the Chinese language well?"

"Poof~~~" Li Ruhui, who was sitting next to Zhang Fan, couldn't help laughing.

"Be serious. Zhang Fan turned his head and pretended to scold, "Deputy Director Qi is so old, even if he is dizzy and can't read clearly, he can't laugh at the old man." ”

"Hmm~~~" Now it was not only Li Ruhui, everyone in the conference room couldn't help but cover their mouths and snicker. Even if the people from the TV station didn't dare to laugh in front of Deputy Director Qi, whose face turned red and seemed to be suffocating to death, they gritted their teeth and forcibly endured it, and their complexion was already very distorted.

"You~~~" Deputy Director Qi was about to be angry with Zhang Fan! He graduated from a dignified university, and today he was actually said to be unable to read Mandarin!

"Our program is exactly what it does. Zhang Fan raised his hand and knocked on the table, his face was calm, "If you want to talk about this, I won't agree." ”

"At that time, I didn't say that I would directly send money as a prize!" Deputy Director Qi slapped the table angrily, "It's still one million! The Literature and Art Channel is entertaining, and now you make the whole show smell of copper!"

Listening to Deputy Director Qi, who has always liked money the most, shouting about copper smell, all those on the TV station have strange faces.

"I would like to ask Deputy Director Qi. Zhang Fan raised his eyelids: "Isn't money a prize? And is there any regulation that says that money cannot be used as a prize in the show?"

"You guys are cheating!" Deputy Director Qi stubbornly grasped this point, "The station will re-examine your programs! All those who do not comply with the regulations will be suspended for rectification!"

Li Ruhui frowned, if it really stopped broadcasting, the impact on their company would be too great! Turning his head to look at Zhang Fan, he found that Zhang Fan had a calm face as if he hadn't heard anything.

Zhang Fan knew what they wanted, and he said this just to get what he wanted. This show is so popular, seeing that a huge amount of wealth is about to flow into your pocket, it doesn't matter if you will be blushing and drooling, let alone the national TV platform, which broadcasts the show.

Sure enough, after some threats, Deputy Director Qi turned to the conditions, "However, if your company can transfer the copyright of this show to the station, then everything is negotiable." ”

Li Ruhui's face turned red suddenly, and her face was full of anger and she was ready to get up and reprimand angrily. Who can become a millionaire This show is so popular, and the value of its copyright is immeasurable! How dare these people open their mouths?!

Zhang Fan raised his hand and grabbed Li Ruhui, shook his head slightly, then looked at Deputy Director Qi with a smug face on the opposite side, raised his hand and pointed to the text of the contract and nodded, "Everything has been written in the contract." If you are not satisfied, you can go to court to solve it. It's just that all the losses caused to the program team must be compensated by you. I have made it clear in the contract that the final interpretation of this program belongs to the company. ”

Zhang Fan knew that they would do this before signing the contract, so he blocked all the omissions early. And his meaning at this time is also very simple, if you want benefits, you can go to the court to sue me. As long as the court rules that I lose, then I can give anything. However, if the court rules that I win, then all the losses caused by this will be borne by you!

Will Zhang Fan lose? The reason why he signed the contract so tightly before was that he would not lose in the lawsuit!

Deputy Director Qi was dumbfounded. They also know that the copyright is too hot to get their hands on, and the reason why they say this is just to ask for a sky-high price. They wanted to share more of the revenue from this show, but they didn't expect Zhang Fan to flip the table directly, and he didn't mean to repay the money at all.

Zhang Fan knew that there was no problem with his contract, so the TV station naturally knew it. After all, spending so much money every year to support the legal department is not a dry meal.

You can't win a lawsuit. Even if they can force Zhang Fan to temporarily stop the show, but once they lose the lawsuit, Zhang Fan will be dumbfounded if he asks for compensation for related losses.

This show is so popular, and the income expectation is also very terrifying. If the court awards compensation, it's not that Taili can't come up with so much money, and if you lose so much money, someone must resist this black pot!

It is clear that no one in the leadership of the TV station wants to carry the black pot. Those who can sit in this position are all human spirits, and no one can put themselves in for the benefit of the TV station.

Zhang Fan had already seen through the essence of this matter. He is not afraid of lawsuits at all, and now that the program is so popular, once the TV station forces the program to stop broadcasting in this way, public opinion alone can make the TV station unable to go around. Not to mention that after losing the lawsuit, you have to pay a large amount of money.

The TV station is not short of money, but it is the person who can resist this black pot.

This level of black cauldron is not something that anyone can resist casually, at least at the level of deputy director. And who would be willing to fight against the black cauldron at this level?

Zhang Fan, who knows the twists and turns in this, is not worried that his show will be forced to stop broadcasting, because no one dares to stand up and carry the black pot!

"Everything is on the contract. Zhang Fan got up and sorted out his clothes, "Either go to the court to sue me, or honestly follow the contract." Don't think too much, thinking too much, not being able to sleep at night is not good for your health. ”

Looking at the back of Zhang Fan leaving, his face was distorted, and Deputy Director Qi, whose face was flushed, could only slam his fist on the table in front of him, "This bastard !!"

In the end, the state television station did not forcibly interrupt the program, nor did it take the program team to court. Because they know that there is no way to do this, even if they go to court, they can't win.

When they saw Zhang Fan spend a huge amount of money of 100 million a year to buy the time period of the literary channel, they also gloated that Zhang Fan had a problem with his brain. Who will watch what literary channel programs this year?

However, when the show Who Can Become a Millionaire came out, everyone was dumbfounded.

The first episode of the show achieved a record rating of 3.7%, and this kind of show is a favorite among all advertisers.

The network broadcast rights were sold by Zhang Fan to the highest-bidding online video company, and the price was as high as 130 million!

The naming rights of the program were won by the famous multinational company Coca-Cola. Coca-Cola, which has deep pockets, directly offered 150 million yuan to buy the naming rights of the show.

As for the interstitial advertisements in the program, Zhang Fan sold them to several companies in batches at different times. The total annual revenue is expected to exceed 200 million!

Mr. Qian didn't wait for preferential treatment this time, so he could only grit his teeth and buy an advertising time slot. For these advertising companies, the advertising time slot of this kind of popular program is very sought-after, because with the time slot, it can attract those high-quality customers, and these high-quality customers are the basis for the survival of the advertising company.

The last time Mr. Qian was on the Voice program, he relied on the time period in his hand to attract several big customers. If you don't grit your teeth and win the time slot this time, it is very likely to cause the loss of these customers. It's an unbearable thing for advertising agencies.

The peripheral products of the program group have also begun to contact manufacturers for production, and all kinds of projects that can make money have been fully opened. Looking at Zhang Fan's mountains of gold and silver, the leaders of the TV station were almost crazy.

After deducting the expenses previously paid to the TV station, the cost of setting up the program team, the cost of program production, and the cost of program promotion. This show has earned Zhang Fan a profit of up to 300 million!

And these revenues are not the biggest amount of money for this show, the copyright and peripheral income of this show are the real big heads!
