Chapter 477： 1 stroke

Eden-Hudson is very aware of the cards that Evan-Bell has now. He owns the copyright of the program and the rights to the puppets of the program. At the same time, he can also produce the program on his own. Now the biggest reason why Eleven Studios hand over talent shows to Fremantle Media is because they are good at making programs. Eleven Studios' production system is just starting, and more time will be spent on making music and movies On the other hand, the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (ns), which is currently in the early stages of preparation, is still unable to recruit.

Therefore, Evan-Bell still prefers to hand over the production of the talent show to Fremantle Media, after all, they are more familiar with it. It is absolutely acceptable for Eden-Hudson to offer this new contract: the two sides have cooperated like this in the United States, and they have followed in the footsteps of the United Kingdom. Why not!

The Fremantle media are bound to protest and negotiations need to be offered. When Eden-Hudson proposed the plan, he knew this was the case. After all, businessmen are mercenary, and it is impossible to give up their interests in vain. The other party has the right to negotiate, and Eden-Hudson also has the right to refuse.

After listening to Eden-Hudson's words, Maria-Cotter's eyes flashed, and her expression did not change, but in fact, her heart sank, and countless thoughts flashed in her head. As a project director, in fact, Maria-Cott has the right to decide. Her words just now are just to delay time and seek strategies. But now it seems that she wants to delay the time, but Eleven Studio does not give this opportunity.

Eleven Studios is telling the truth, even if the planning case of "X Factor" has been in the hands of Fremantle Media, but Evan Bell already owns the copyright of the program, and Fremantle Media has no room for resistance. . Therefore, Eleven Studio's search for new collaborators is by no means empty words.

Therefore, Maria-Cote gave an elegant smile, "Mr. Hudson, our company and your company have always had a good cooperative relationship, and now the talent show is produced and promoted by us in 33 countries around the world. We could just sit on both sides of the table and have a good talk, wouldn't we?" Maria-Cotter was showing weakness, but also a last-ditch effort, reminding Eden-Hudson and Evan-Bell that now all Thirty-three countries in the world are all co-operated by Eleven Studio and Fremantle Media, and no one feels uncomfortable after tearing their faces.

Evan-Bell didn't even raise his eyebrows. Since he had such a heavy hand in this kind of negotiation, if he made any concessions, it would be foolish to believe in Eden-Hudson's ability.

Eden-Hudson made a soft "chi" sound in his nose, which sounded like a chuckle, but it was a sneer at the banquet "Thirty-three countries, indeed. We think February thirty-three The first-season draft in this country should be over, and we should renegotiate contracts with this country."

At present, in addition to the United States, the other 32 countries are all divided according to the original model of the United Kingdom. Eleven Studio enjoys 60% of the copyright revenue, as well as the player's contract. In other words, the revenue of Eleven Studio in other 32 countries has been settled. Now the advertising revenue and peripheral revenue of talent shows in the other 32 countries are all collected by Fremantle Media. This is the most important part of Fremantle Media's current earnings.

If Eleven Studio asks for a new dividend, for example, to share the advertising revenue of 32 countries, although it may not be successful: after all, the contract has been signed in black and white, but the shopping mall is not that simple. Kurt can fully imagine the catastrophe that Fremantle Media will face at that time.

"Miss Kurt, our cooperation has always been very pleasant. Eleven Studio only adopted this contract in the United States, and now it is only extended to the United Kingdom." Kurt reacted. After the unpleasant negotiation in the U.S. market, Evan Bell still handed over the negotiation leadership of the next 20 countries to Fremantle Media to repair the relationship between the two parties. Really do not know what to do, out of control.

As a result, the smile on Maria Kurt's face was calm and bright, "Of course, if the cooperation can continue, this is undoubtedly a better thing. I believe that our company has internal discussions. , after consulting a lawyer, everything will be smooth." This is a concession, agreeing to re-sign the cooperation contract of "American Idol" after the start of the British "X Factor".

Since Maria Kurt just said it, it takes time to discuss it with a lawyer. Nai Yi, even if he made concessions at this time, he still couldn't break the power on the face.

Eden-Hudson still didn't have much expression on the iceberg face. "Twenty-four hours. We'll sign a new contract within twenty-four hours."

Facing Eden-Hudson's aggressiveness, this time, Maria-Cotter finally stopped struggling and said with a smile, "Things will develop as expected."

Twenty-four hours later, Eleven Studios re-signed a new contract to produce "The X Factor" with Freentel Media. In this contract, just like the "American Idol" contract, Eleven Studio will enjoy 70% of the copyright dividends, and the draft talent will have the priority to sign. Twenty percent of the surrounding area is very red.

A week later, ITV announced that it had purchased the copyright of "The X Factor" at a price of 20 million UK charts. "The X Factor" will replace the upcoming season of "Pop Idol" as a new talent show. Although it is not comparable to the 80 million copyright fee of "American Idol", it still creates a new copyright high in the history of British programs.

Eleven Studios won 14 million British charts in this transaction, about 23 million US dollars. If the subsequent advertisements and peripheral dividends are added, then even if Eleven Studios does nothing now, the Bell family can live a peaceful and stable life. At the same time, now that the working capital of the Eleventh Studio has been supplemented, the construction of Eleventh Production can take a step forward and make great strides.

ITV finally reassured 'Pop Idol' ratings slump solved: Fremantle media finally reassured, Sén-Fowler's threat dashed: except Sén-Fowler indignant , everything seems to be fine. However, far across the Atlantic, Fox TV was a little restless.

At present, Evan Bell has two talent shows "American Idol" and "X Factor". The first season of the former on Fox TV has just entered the live broadcast week, and there are still nearly two months before the finale. The ratings, The advertising results made the TV station happy, and the 80 million yuan fee was more than worth it. But the thing is, there's an "x-factor" out there now, and if Evan Bell brings the "x-factor" to America, then it's going to be bad for Fox.

When Evan-Bell sells the "x-factor" to a competitor, Fox faces a challenge: Evan-Bell sells the "x-factor" to Fox, and Fox itself faces the problem of bloated programming.

So, when Evan-Bell left continental Europe, ended his London Fashion Week trip, and finally returned to New York, Fox TV couldn't wait to come to the door. At this time, it is not a matter of restraint and face. Fox TV does not mind showing their anxiety at all. They must understand what Evan-Bell is thinking now.

Want to ask Evan Bell what he thinks now? He didn't get carried away by the yulou of money.

"American Idol" has been able to dominate the small screen in the United States for ten years, mainly because there are no competitors in the United States. In addition, Fox TV has built the brand, and this ォ creation has been brilliant for ten years. Evan-Bell will naturally not destroy the Great Wall. If programs such as "X Factor" and "**" are released too early, Evan-Bell's income from copyrights in his own pocket will increase rapidly. It will also be because the same type of programs are too flooded and it is difficult to make a brand effect, thereby accelerating the demise.

The best example is the Chinese and Korean markets. The Chinese market is rapidly declining under the fierce competition of a series of talent shows such as "Super Girl Voice" and "My Type My Show". After many years, There are only a handful of talent contestants who can achieve success: in the Korean market, after 2009, talent shows quickly flourished, but because there are too many competing shows of the same type, each show is full of thunder and rain.

Now Evan Bell holds all the trump cards of the talent show. He has the ability to control the direction of the talent show. Naturally, he will not shoot himself in the foot, so he will not put " X Factor" and "**" were brought into the United States to establish competitors for "American Idol".

It was Evan Bell's idea, not Fremantle Media's idea, nor Fox's idea. So Ken Burns, the producer of Fox Television, went straight to 10 King Street.

The dusty Evan Bell has just dealt with the noisy media at the airport, London Fashion Week, Berlin Film Festival, the media can't wait to interview Evan Bell up close, plus nearly 400 fans. Picking up the plane made Evan and Bell exhausted at the airport. Now, when ォ comes home, Ken Burns comes to the door, I really don't know whether to call it lucky or unfortunate.

But, judging from the outcome of things, it seems that everyone is happy. Evan Bell promised not to bring the "X Factor" to the North American continent in a short period of time, and at the expense of Fox TV, in the "American Idol" contract, Eleven Studio's advertising dividends were paid by Hundreds of dollars. Ten percent increased to fifteen percent.

The "X Factor" copyright income "American Idol" advertising dividend increased by five percentage points, and Evan-Bell made a small profit easily. This is the power of knowledge. ! .
