Chapter 153: Bar Conflict
Anderson was a little surprised at this time, because the question asked by the other party is something that many people will not pay attention to, and in everyone's mind, a TV station is a TV station.
Where is there any nature?
However, Anderson switched from radio to television, so he knew what Fang Lang meant.
"What I want to do is a news station."
"Since you're looking for investment, how many shares do you want to get?"
Anderson looked at Fang Lang with burning eyes, and said with some hesitation in his mouth:
"Mr. Fang, are you willing to invest in me? But I haven't found a profitable model for TV stations. I also don't have the capital to invest in this project.
If you are really willing to invest in the establishment of a TV station like this, I don't need shares, I am willing to work for you. ”
Fang Lang shook his head and said:
"It doesn't matter if you can't find a profitable model, I know how to make my TV station profitable, since it's an investment, of course, I have to give you shares.
I believe that the profitability of my TV station will not be lower than that of a pay TV station. So, you don't have to worry. Tell me how many shares you want. ”
Anderson couldn't believe his ears, and Mr. Fang actually said that he could guarantee that his profit would not be lower than that of pay TV.
"Mr. Fang, do you really have a way to make a TV station profitable? Can you tell me what the method is? ”
Now I've told you, if you change your own boss and set up a TV station in the United States, isn't it none of my business? Therefore, Fang Lang shook his head without hesitation and said:
"I'll tell you when you build a TV station for me."
Seeing Anderson's somewhat skeptical look.
"If you don't believe me, I can put this in the contract, and if my TV station is not a free channel, I can pay you $100,000 in liquidated damages.
That's enough money to get back to the U.S. and start a new TV station, isn't it? ”
After hesitating for a long time, Anderson decided to take a gamble and nodded:
"Good! I believe in you, Mr. Fang, I don't want shares, I am willing to work for you and set up the first TV station in Brazil. ”
"Since you don't know how many shares you want, then I'll give you three percent of the management shares, and another two percent as equity incentives.
Reward outstanding employees. However, let's be clear that these shares can only enjoy the right to dividends, and cannot be bought or sold. Can you accept it? ”
Seeing that Fang Lang was so confident and also mentioned dividends, he was obviously really confident in the profitability of the TV station, and Anderson was even more relieved.
"Good! Mr. Fang, I'm fine! ”
"As for the salary package for you and the recruited employees, it will be 20 percent higher than in the United States. Is it acceptable. ”
This is Anderson, and he didn't say much, he got up directly and stretched out his hand to Fang Lang and said:
"Owner, happy to work with. I'm going to go back and quit today, and in a month at the latest, I'll be going to Brazil with a whole team to set up your own TV station. ”
Fang Lang also stood up and shook hands with him and said:
"It's our TV station."
What we are talking about here that day is only a TV station, not including the installation of cable TV lines, and the current TV does not have a satellite signal and needs cable transmission.
As for the situation that the free channel has not found a profit point, it is similar to many Internet start-ups in later generations, Yahoo and Netscape in the United States have only discovered the way of advertising after a long time of exploration.
Fang Lang informed the assistant team of Fangyuan Group to connect with the assistant of the "Brazilian Times" to enter his office.
"Dora Barnetta, this is Mr. Anderson, the partner I found for our upcoming TV station. From now on, we will set up a new media group.
The name is Fangyuan Media, and the "Times of Brazil" and the soon-to-be-established TV station are under the jurisdiction of the media company, and a radio station needs to be established.
How far has our Brazil Times evolved now? ”
Dora Barnetta is a young man of Brazilian descent with very healthy yellow-black skin and is not very tall. Graduated from the University of São Paulo, Brazil.
The university was founded in 1934 and Dora Banetta was a sixth graduate of the university, majoring in journalism and working at the local newspaper in São Paulo.
After the creation of the Brazilian Times, which grew very rapidly, he joined the Brazilian Times in the second month of its existence.
As for why Fang Lang's assistant team of Fangyuan Group is male, the reason is very simple, the status of women in Brazil is too low now.
It was only in April 1945 that President Vargas legally recognized the right to vote for literate women over the age of 18.
However, there were very few Brazilian women who could read and write during this period.
Not to mention the Brazilian women who can come out for clerical work.
However, this is also the time when the status of women in Brazil is beginning to rise rapidly.
"Boss, now our Brazilian Times is the most influential newspaper in Brazil, with a daily circulation of two million copies.
Mr. Editor-in-Chief is considering whether to create a new publication to further capture the market. ”
When Fang Lang was in Natal, he had already discovered that such a remote province as Natal was already full of the Brazilian Times.
Obviously, the pace of growth in the Brazilian Times is very rapid.
However, Fang Lang's eyes are not only staring at one acre and three points of land in Brazil, think of the Murdoch Media Group in the future, which is a global media group.
"I have no problem with starting a new publication, but you have to remind them not to limit their eyes to Brazil. We can also buy American newspapers!
When our TV station is established in Brazil, Mr. Anderson can also set up a TV station in the United States! Our goal is to make Fineland Media a global media group.
Do you understand? ”
Fang Lang said these things in front of Anderson, of course, to appease Anderson's heart, and at the same time to set a more ambitious goal for everyone.
Sure enough, when Anderson heard that Fang Lang wanted to set up a TV station in the United States, he was overjoyed and hurriedly agreed:
"Boss, I still have some contacts in the media industry in the United States, and if necessary, I can come forward to help pave the way for the development of the group company in the United States."
Hearing Anderson's statement, Fang Lang was also overjoyed, and hurriedly said:
"That's great, Banetta, you record, from now on Mr. Anderson is the vice president of Fangyuan Media Group, responsible for building the TV station and assisting the media company in the development of Europe and the United States.
If you need to carry out an acquisition or M&A project, you can go directly to our Brazilian Development Bank for help. ”
"Understand the boss, I will immediately form a document of your opinions and send them to the group company."
Anderson, of course, was even happier, going straight from the editor-in-chief of NBC to the vice president of a media company, an advancement that many people would never achieve in a lifetime.
In this way, he just attended a dinner party of Morgan, but as a result, he led to the director of a television station. It can be regarded as solving Fang Lang's worries.
This made Fang Lang's mood very happy, and that night, Fang Lang contacted Wan Chongxin and said that he wanted to experience the nightlife of New York.
What else is there to say, arrangement!
That night, the Forward Bar in Manhattan, New York.
Accompanied by Wan Chongxin and Anderson, Fang Lang wanted to experience the bar culture in New York, of course, he didn't think about the affair, and no one asked.
But when Fang Lang was excited, he walked down the stairs to this bar in the basement, which is said to have been around for more than ten years!
Looking at the small stage, a singer is singing the most popular country music of this era.
Fang Lang's whole person fell into a state of confusion.
What about the spice girls?
What about the dance floor?
What kind of show did you take?
The pants are all off, no, the bullets are ready, you just show me this?
I want a crowded atmosphere with passionate people!
I want to feel like you're surrounded by beautiful women!
What I want is the stimulation of meat rubbing!
Now tell me this is the bar?
Several people gathered around the table, watching the performance on the small stage, Fang Lang felt very bored.
Wan Chongxin obviously saw Fang Lang's absent-mindedness, and said suspiciously:
"Boss, what's wrong?"
"Is this your bar?"
"That's right!"
"What about heavy metal rock music? What about DJs? What about the lights? ”
As he spoke, Fang Lang reacted first, as if he was right!
Today's audio equipment should not be as advanced as later, and lighting equipment and the like should not have appeared like later generations!
It seems that he takes it for granted.
The bars of this era are not as bright as those of later generations, and the little girls of today are not as open as those of later generations.
Disappointed!
Bad review!
Seeing that the two of them wanted to continue to say something, Fang Lang had completely lost interest in chatting.
waved his hand and said:
"Forget it, it's nothing! Drink bars! ”
After two glasses of wine, watching the singers on the stage sing music that he had never heard before, Fang Lang slowly lost interest.
After saying hello to the two of them, he walked to the bathroom.
As soon as I walked to the door of the bathroom, I was stopped by two white people!
The two looked at Fang Lang with disgust, and the white man on the left scolded directly:
"Get out, yellow-skinned monkey, you're not welcome here."
Fang Lang, who was already a little depressed because of his disappointment, heard this, and the anger in his heart was instantly ignited.
Raising the leg is a flirtatious leg kick to the crotch of the white man on the left.
I only heard the sound of "click", and the sound of an egg breaking came.
The man directly bent down and squatted, unable to stand up again.
Seeing this, the man on the right smashed a straight punch at Fang Lang's face.
Fang Lang dodged the straight punch with a low head, grabbed the outstretched wrist, and threw the opponent to the ground with an over-the-shoulder fall.
How to say that Fang Lang is also a warrior who has killed the enemy on the battlefield, and these actions are basically instinctive.
In addition, the two men on the opposite side were obviously already drunk, of course, they could not be Fang Lang's opponents.
The commotion caused a commotion in the bar.
Before anyone could figure out what was going on, a few more white people saw the white man who fell to the ground, and they didn't know if it was suitable for their friends.
just punched at Fang Lang.
By the time Wan Chongxin and Jackson reacted, Fang Lang had already crashed into the arms of a white man and punched him in the liver.
The man fell straight down.
Wan Chongxin and Jackson saw this battle, and they were a little overwhelmed for a while.
But Wan Chongxin also lived at the bottom of Chinatown after all.
It didn't matter so much, he rushed directly into the battlefield.
Jackson looked at it, good guy, the boss was beaten, so what else can you say, it.
It's also joined.
Wan Chongxin was okay, but Jackson completely went in to make trouble, and he didn't hit anyone, but he suffered a lot.
Fortunately, the movement inside attracted the attention of the soldiers who were guarding Fang Lang outside and rushed in.
Soon, all the men surrounding Fang Lang were beaten to the ground.
