Chapter 209: Various minds

When the car accelerated to the road, Eric recalled the situation just now. Some of them said with emotion: "I don't think that except for a few big TV stations, even the cable station of hbo is coming up, but Michael Eisner sent people. What is the situation?"
"Friends" has achieved remarkable results. As an assistant to Eric, coupled with the superiority that has just been chased by a group of people, Alan is slightly excited. Hearing Eric’s problem, he thought about it. "I think Mr. Eisner should be for abc."
Eric instantly remembered the previous Disney acquisition of abc TV, but although Eric remembered when the previous Disney acquired abc, but certainly for many years now, how can Michael Eisner now Just come out for abc?
From the rearview mirror, I noticed Eric’s confused expression. Allen volunteered:
The relationship between Disney and ABC has always been very close. I have been watching Disney cartoons on ABC TV since I was a child.

Eric was a bit stunned and immediately said: "Allen, you helped me sort out the information between Disney and ABC in the past two days." After thinking about it, he added: "Take other big TV stations with The relationship between the seven Hollywood players has been compiled for me."
"No problem, but it may take a week or so." Allen twisted his head.
"No hurry, you do it slowly, the most important thing is to be accurate."
"I understand, Eric, where are we going now?" Allen asked again. In the presence of outsiders, Allen always called Eric as Mr. Williams. However, privately, he directly called Eric's name. This is what Eric has deliberately. Allen is almost thirty years old. It is almost ten years older than Eric. If the name is private, it will be serious, even Eric will feel very awkward.
Eric didn't want to say it directly: "Going home, it's already night. Nothing is rushing for a moment. There is no need to bother people now. I will go back and call Jeffrey and they will call me."
Back to the Beverly Hills mansion. Allen and the driver helped Eric to move his luggage into the villa. Xiao Nizi, who had been waiting for Eric to return, waited for the outsider to leave, and then rushed to a pile of luggage to find a gift. Eric spoiled a few times on the door of Xiao Nizi before sending Allen and the driver to leave.
"About the arrangements for these days, if it is an invitation to Fox, I will find an excuse to help me to push it off. If other TV stations have contact, I will arrange a time to see it." Standing at the door of the villa, Eric is on the side of the car. Lun said.
Allen also knows. Eric is going to wait for the price between several big TV stations, but he still asks in confusion: "Eric, what if Murdoch personally finds the door?"
"He won't," Eric said confidently. "Before sending a private plane to go to Venice to pick up my little tricks, Fox is just expressing sincerity for the negotiations behind, and then it seems to be anxious." If Dok can't help but come to the door, then of course I will politely kill it and say it."
"Eric, do you intend to change a TV station for "Friends"?" Allen asked with a smile, but after the opening, he regretted it. This question is somewhat sensitive.
Eric certainly can't tell Allen his plans. Although Allen has always been more diligent, it is difficult to prevent some of the things from being revealed by the lure of interest. The most important thing to want to be loyal to one person is to try not to give the other party enough betrayal. If the opponent knows some of his plans through Allen. Then, Eric will have a hard time getting the most out of it.
However, he also saw from the expression of Allen that the other party did not have the heart to ask this question. He smiled and said: "This must be based on the quotation of all parties. We must choose the one with the highest price."
Allen nodded, no more questions, and soon left.
Back to the villa, the phone in the living room has been picked up by Drew, so Eric has to be like the "Friends" ratings just released the same morning. I played another hour or two in a row. This time, Rupert Murdoch also personally called and invited Eric to have lunch together tomorrow. Eric casually found a few reasons to reject the other party.
He intends to at least make contact with other major TV stations to make it look good, so that Fox feels enough urgency. Then talk about the transaction, in order to maximize the benefits. Although the other major TV stations performed so eagerly, Eric did not intend to change the TV station for Friends in the beginning.
Compared with ‘fashionable’ Fox, other big TV stations are more like old-fashioned old-fashioned heads. Even if the other party puts down the body and cooperates with Eric, it will inevitably be ‘old and old.’ Fox is different. Eric knows that the previous Fox has developed into a North American TV giant alongside the three major TV stations in just over a decade. But apart from Eric himself, even Murdoch, the head of News Corp., can't know this, and it's impossible to have enough confidence in the prospects of Fox TV. In this case, the importance of Friends to Fox. Sex is unusual.
The next day, the first thing Eric did was to go to the crew of "Friends" to explore the class, at noon, under the line of Michael Eisner, and a vice president of abc TV station who came to Los Angeles. After eating together, Robert Xieila went to see an nbc executive at night. On the morning of September 7, he was taken to the golf club of the Los Angeles branch of CBS for a morning golf.
I have to say that the prices of the three major TV stations are very generous, and there is no mention of the purchase of the drama at a price. The conditions for direct marketing are the participation in the TV drama, and in the information that Eric knows, the other party The percentage of distribution is quite high. At the same time, the three major TV stations revealed that they wanted to cut off Hu Fox and scored the next episode of "Friends" in the first season.
Through these contacts, Eric also found that the three major TV stations must have reached some consensus before, and may even form a loose alliance. However, this 'union' is fragile and can be blown away. The three major TV stations are relatively fiercely competitive with each other. Although there will be cooperation, it is as if it is impossible for them to allow the other two to show their own trump card programs. Similarly, in the "Friends" incident, it is also holding their own minds, because the ratings of "Friends", placed on any TV station, are destined to become a trump card.
Although the attitude of the three TV stations, which was consistent in their attitudes, they each attacked, it also caused Eric to implement his own ideas without much pressure. After all, if the three major TV giants in North America put pressure on him, he must not consider the consequences of simultaneously offending three TV stations. (To be continued)
