Chapter 385: Go all out

"Sort of, I still don't think it's a good idea to sponsor this concert, Xiuqing! You've grown up, you're the only heir to your boss in the future, and it's time for you to start learning to look at things like a businessman, instead of doing everything to your liking! "Mary. Smith didn't hide his thoughts, but instead opened his mouth to teach a lesson.

Mary. Smith was one of the first veterans to follow Li Afu, it can be said that he watched Su Xiuqing grow from a 7 or 8-year-old girl to such a big girl, not to mention that this woman was really for her good, which made Su Xiuqing unable to even raise her temper, so she could only smile helplessly, and said firmly: "Okay, Aunt Smith, I will seriously consider your suggestion, so can I go and meet the representative of NBC Radio and Television now?" ”

"Well, here's the material of the NBC negotiators!" Mary. Smith heard Su Xiuqing's firm tone, shook his head helplessly, and handed over the prepared materials.

"You know what? Aunt Smith, I knew that NVC was actually a better choice than CNN, because Chen had worked with NBC's TV station, and the "Renault Tonight Show" he participated in had created a ratings miracle! "Su Xiuqing flew quickly in Mary. After glancing at the information handed by Smith, a smile finally bloomed on his face that had been quite melancholy, and he said happily.

For no other reason, judging from the data, the representatives sent by NBC and radio are much more than those sent by CNN. Burke, a middle-aged man in his fifties, is one of the operating officers of NBC Broadcasting and Television.

"Don't be too happy, it's not that simple, it's not a TV show, it's a slapstick impromptu concert. Convincing a TV station owned by a major media company that it is not as easy as you think to change the program for the whole night! Also, have you ever seen a singer's concert take such a short time to prepare? Even when he said that he was going to hold a concert, the live media had not yet been determined, and the reaction time left for the media was only six hours! Does that Z country Chen think that holding a concert is the same as pretending to be a family wine? "Mary. Smith poured cold water on Su Xiuqing in a complaining tone.

"So let's talk! Aunt Smith. First of all, you must help me this time! Su Xiuqing said with a straight face.

Mary. Smith shook his head with a wry smile, and then said without questioning, "Okay, I'll do my best." But I can't guarantee that it will succeed. And if the conditions demanded by the other party are too outrageous, you can't make your own decisions, you have to discuss with your father! ”

"Okay, Aunt Smith, let's go quickly, don't let this Mr. Burke wait!" Su Xiuqing said.

Su Xiuqing followed Mary. Smith went to NBC Broadcasting Corporation Morson. In front of the reception room arranged by Burke. Mary. Smith looked back at Su Xiuqing, who looked expectant, and shook his head tangledly. Took the initiative to knock on the door.

"Please come in!" A calm voice came from inside the door, accompanied by a calm voice, Su Xiuqing also faintly heard the noisy TV in the reception room, obviously this was Mr. Burke, who was watching TV in the room.

Mary. Smith pushed open the door and followed Mary. Su Xiuqing, who was behind Smith, saw that this was the operating officer of NBC TV.

This Morson. Burke looked younger than the fifty years old, but his hair tended to cease slightly, and he looked a little fat. But he looks very energetic, especially with a pair of eyes that look very cunning. made Su Xiuqing feel that this man was indeed difficult to deal with.

By this time he had stood up and looked at the two of them.

Mary. After Smith walked in the door, he walked directly forward and introduced the two: "Xiuqing." This is NBC Radio and Television Operations Officer Morson. Mr. Burke, Mr. Burke, this is Miss Su Xiuqing, the personal assistant of Z Guo Chen, and she has Chen's full authority to discuss the cooperation with you in this concert! ”

"Hello. Nice to meet you, Mr. Burke! Su Xiuqing took the initiative to stretch out her hand and greeted her.

"Hello. Miss Su, I'm the same, it's a pleasure to meet you. Hopefully, we can all learn from our meeting today! "Hands to hand, Morson. Burke's words made Su Xiuqing feel a little more hopeful.

Su Xiuqing glanced sideways at the TV set that was on on the wall, broadcasting some news about tonight's Grammy Awards produced by Columbia's TV station. At this time, the sound of the TV has been turned off, and only the reporter can be seen interviewing a star in the background.

"I just heard the sound of the TV outside the door, and I thought you must be watching NBC. If you don't support your own TV program, isn't you a qualified operation officer? Su Xiuqing said with a meaningful joke.

"Ha, Miss Su is so humorous. However, as a mainstream radio and television network company in country M, we don't care about the ratings of these one or two, and the impact on us can only be seen with a super-high multiplier microscope! "Morson. Burke replied without leaking, putting NBC's status very high, very boastful, and showing that his negotiation skills are not easy to deal with.

"Well, Mr. Burke, you know, we don't have much time, so let's get straight to the point!" After having a preliminary assessment of the man in front of him, Su Xiuqing said straight to the point.

"Of course, why don't I sit down and talk. Time is tight, we can't stand like this all the time, can we? Two ladies please! "Morson. Burke smiled and said slowly. By the way, it was a very gentleman to help Su Xiuqing and Mary. Smith pulled back the chair in front of the table and gestured to take a seat.

"Thank you!" Although she was very anxious in her heart, Su Xiuqing could only be patient and politely thanked her. Wait until both sides are seated before continuing to speak: "Morson. Mr. Burke, I think Chen has had a good foundation of cooperation with NBC, and Chen's performance on "The Renault Tonight Show" is obvious to all, so I think this live broadcast of Chen's concert will be a win-win cooperation for both of us, what do you think? ”

"What you say makes a lot of sense, Miss Su, but there are three problems!" Getting to the point, Morson. Burke also began to get serious, "First, there is not much time left for us to prepare, only six hours, and we didn't even prepare at all before. We can't be sure of the impact of a last-minute change in programming on a TV station, and if the final ratings are not ideal, our clients will be unhappy with our approach. ”

"Second, we missed the promotion of prime advertising time. If we finally decide to broadcast this concert, we will only have 6 hours of promotional time, and it is not prime time. This makes it even more impossible for us to guarantee the ratings of the concert! ”

"Third, Chen is a singer with a lot of character. But I have to say that Chen's attitude towards the Grammys is a little too intense. You must know that the Grammys are the focus of attention of countless fans. The stars who appeared at the Grammys, their fans were all over the West, from all walks of life. We're not even sure if we're going to make these fans think badly about us at NBC after Chan's disrespectful provocation to the Grammys, and even have a profound impact on our future development, so it's risky for us to broadcast this concert, don't you think? ”

Morson. The three questions Burke uttered in one breath were clearly his thoughtful views. It may not even be his opinion alone, but it has been cut down by a special person after analysis. But when Morson. After Burke said so many questions, it made Su Xiuqing a little more confident that the two could reach a consensus.

The reason is simple, Morson. Burke didn't say anything to death. What's more, the fact that he was willing to take a few hours from NY to Los Angeles despite analyzing so many problems shows that they must have seen the business opportunities contained in this concert. Or rather, they were trying to assess whether the potential proceeds of broadcasting the concert were worth the risk. Otherwise Morson. Why did Burke come to see him? Is it just to tell yourself these reasons to your face and then reject yourself?

Well, if an executive of one of the most influential radio and television companies in country M can be so idle, she can only admit it.

With this cognition, Su Xiuqing's thoughts at this time began to become extraordinarily clear.

"On the first question, I would like to say that Chen himself is a singer who is good at creating miracles! Please don't underestimate Chen's influence. A single has been downloaded more than 18 million times in a row, and no singer has done it, right? Su Xiuqing quickly asked.

"The second question is, it's true that six hours is not much, but don't you think that the concert itself is already hyped by everyone? And as long as we can sign a contract and determine the broadcast station, I can immediately increase the advertising investment for this concert, buy enough TV channels in these six hours and enough advertising time to promote this live broadcast, so that I can basically maximize the ratings of the concert, right? ”

Su Xiuqing said here, Mary who was sitting next to her. Smith opened his mouth as if to interject. However, it is obvious that Su Xiuqing has expected Mary. Smith may have reacted so when Mary. After Smith touched Su Xiuqing's fierce eyes with his head sideways, he finally just shook his head and did not speak.

The little action of the two did not hide from Morson. Burke's eyes, the shrewd NBC operations officer, did not speak, only slightly bowed his head, showing a thoughtful expression. (To be continued......)
