Chapter 415: American Radio Television

The question raised by Li Mingbao made Deng Xia feel creepy. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Info emotionally, Deng Xia is unwilling to believe that such a thing would exist in a country with sound justice like the United States, and if there is a lawsuit at that time, DreamWorks will definitely stand on the favorable side, and whoever wants to do this will pay a great price.
But rationally, Deng Xia understands that Li Mingbao's worries are not impossible, as long as the development of DreamWorks moves forward according to Li Mingbao's previous plan, sooner or later it will encounter such problems. At that time, even if other companies spend a lot of money, they will blatantly infringe, because there is a profit in that. The laws of the United States are indeed sound, but do not forget that the judiciary has never been a paradise for the reasonable in the United States. The most important bargaining chip is not justice, but capital.
If those giant companies are really willing to spend years and months to forcibly infringe on DreamWorks, Li Mingbao will not only not get profits from DreamWorks, but will also continue to lose his own funds and fight with giant companies, Li Mingbao is not qualified enough. It is not that the United States has not been dragged down by giant companies like this, and there are many such things. As a lawyer, I know how many doorways there are. If you really want to let those giant companies spend money to fight with Li Mingbao in the judicial arena, Li Mingbao will lose 100%. After all, Li Mingbao's capital, and those companies, are not at the same level at all. Coupled with the siege of many parties, if Li Mingbao doesn't want his hard work to be in vain, then he can only take a cabbage price and obediently go back to lick his wounds. Otherwise, Li Mingbao's principal will be consumed by the lawsuit.
Why is the lawyer class so rich in the United States? To a large extent, it is because there are many years of lawsuits to be fought on American soil, and the winning company is certainly making a lot of money, but the lawyer who has passed in the middle is also the one who makes money, and no matter whether the winning party or the losing party has to give the lawyer a lot of money, otherwise the lawsuit will not be able to continue.
Thinking about how serious the consequences were, Deng Xia's cold sweat also flowed. Originally, the crisis problem about this area was her own job, but she didn't think of such a job herself, but let her boss think of it, which can definitely be regarded as a dereliction of duty. If he was an experienced lawyer, he would never have a problem in such a matter, and he would definitely think of this big loophole earlier than Li Mingbao and put forward reasonable suggestions.
"Boss, I was derelict in my duty about this matter, I really didn't expect that the development of DreamWorks would encounter such a problem. As the boss your personal lawyer, I am incompetent. Deng Xia said with a crying voice.
"Your dereliction of duty, yes. Therefore, I think our company's legal department needs to be expanded. Especially experienced lawyers, our firm is in high demand. Of course, I was also wrong on this issue, and in the beginning, I wanted to build a company framework that was a dynamic group of young people who could keep up with my thinking.
But I forgot a key problem, that is, although the old lawyers can't keep up with my thinking, their experience can save me a lot of detours. Young people, like Deng Xia, although they have a very positive work attitude and a good ability to absorb them, the problem of experience cannot be surpassed by hard work.
Therefore, in the future, the company's legal department needs more experienced lawyers to fill it. Of course, it doesn't mean that I will dismiss my relationship with you in the future, you are still my personal legal counsel, after all, it is too hard to deal with those old men and old ladies, or looking at a lively and lovely lady like you, it is more in line with my point of view. However, you still need to continue to experience your business level, and you still need more research on some cases of hostile takeovers or suppression. For young companies, there should be quite a lot of problems about vulnerabilities, and the business of the legal department in the future will mainly be carried out in these aspects.
Okay, let's not talk about that, now we need to think about how to strengthen our company's security capabilities in North America. Twentieth Century Fox is our partner, but on the issue of security, we must also create a company that is independent of them> on this issue, the investment must be invested, and the capital must be paid. Otherwise, the company is as fat as a sheep, but there are no protective measures, which is a manifestation of immaturity. Li Mingbao didn't have too much demand for Deng Xia's mistakes.
After all, Li Mingbao's thinking still has a strong oriental thinking, although he does not look up to the United States, nor does he look down on it, and looks at the United States from the perspective of his own logic. But because he didn't really integrate into the United States at all, he didn't think about some obvious issues at all. I just thought that the judiciary in the United States is sound, and it is not easy for others to infringe on the law.
But I didn't think that it is indeed not easy to infringe in the United States, but it does not mean that you can't infringe, as long as you pay enough price, you can do what you want. In the face of a company worth hundreds of millions of dollars, and it will be worth a billion dollars in the future, even if it is a malicious infringement, the benefits obtained are quite large, and the methods of capitalists have always been full of malice, and there is no difference between treating capitalists as gentlemen and sending themselves to the mouth of a crocodile.
Although Li Mingbao didn't blame herself, Deng Xia also understood that her future life would probably not be easy, although her ability was very outstanding at his age, but people have to die more than people, and goods have to be thrown away, and a novice like her, even if she thinks with her toes, she can't be the opponent of those old and hot lawyers.
If Li Mingbao finds that her growth rate is not fast enough, the development of the company's legal department is not as fast as the company's, and she also suffers some hardships, her current position will have to abdicate sooner or later to make way for Xian.
Although when she was first hired by Li Mingbao, Deng Xia was very confident, and she believed that with her own ability, she could completely solve all the legal problems in Li Mingbao's hands. But the truth has always been very cruel, and the momentum of young people should not be underestimated, but the problem of experience is always a hard injury. She Deng Xia can deal with some more conventional problems, but she is not good at some unconventional problems at all. Even the boss, who doesn't have much understanding of the law, can see the problem, but she, a professional, has always turned a blind eye to the problem.
"If you're going to start with protection now, it's a good idea to buy a TV station. But the TV station is not so easy to operate, in the United States, if there is no trump card program, the operating cost of TVB is difficult for the boss to bear. And because the programs of TVB are not good, the ratings will be lost, and the influence will be lower, if we can't run the TV station well, then buying the TV station is a wrong problem for us.
In terms of the current situation of our company, we would rather start from other aspects, and the business or political circles would rather find a way out than buy the TV station, after all, we don't know anything about the TV station. Even a person like Uncle Liu, who has mastered TVB in Hong Kong, will not have much success in the American TV industry. Therefore, the TV station is a powerful weapon for those who can run the TV station well, but for us who are unfamiliar with the TV station, it is just a tool for continuous bloodletting, and it cannot achieve the effect we want to have. Although he knew that he was flawed in his business, Deng Xia instinctively stopped Li Mingbao's purchase of the TV station.
This is not because Deng Xia wants to show his authority in front of Li Mingbao, but because things like TV stations are not simple things in the first place. In the field of television in the United States, Hong Kong and Hong Kong are completely different concepts. There are only a few TV stations in Hong Kong, and there are only two TVB TV stations, one wireless and one ATV.
Although ATV has always been made miserable by wireless, the competition among Hong Kong's TV stations is really not that fierce in nature. Although Hong Kong's population is not large, that is, five or six million people. But wireless can't snatch all the ratings of ATV at all, and at most it can only take an advantage, so no matter how miserable ATV is, it can't really be miserable.
But in the United States, the situation of the TV industry is completely different from that of Hong Kong, although the United States has a huge viewing base, hundreds of millions of people, no matter how you say that TV stations will have a way to live, after all, there are too many people, and you can live if you pick up some scraps or something.
But in fact, the situation in the United States is even more magnificent than imagined. It is true that there are a lot of viewers in the United States, but you must know that the number of TV stations in the United States is also not a small number, whether it is cable TV or wireless TV, it is not a small number.
And American TV stations and domestic TV stations are completely two different concepts. Domestic TV stations pay more attention to politics, while American TV stations pay more attention to commerciality. And there is also a big gap between TV stations and TV stations. The TV station that fights alone, the ratings are only a certain area, and it is completely impossible to be as domineering as CCTV, and their signals can be seen all over the country.
Commercial TV stations in the United States can generally only cover a certain area, if you want other regions to watch their own TV programs, then there is only one way, to buy more TV stations, just like CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX and other TV stations, these TV stations, in fact, are not a wireless TV station at all, but a network.
Only such a TV station can make your program available to everyone in the United States. It is impossible for a single wireless television station to achieve such a goal in the United States.
