Chapter 1415

HBO is strong.

Because the earliest history can be traced back to the 1960s, the accumulation of more than 30 years is naturally not like.

Unfortunately, I met the anomaly of danilis entertainment.

The DHO TV station launched by danilis was officially launched on October 30. It was selected on Friday instead of Monday, which is a popular TV schedule. It is mainly due to weekend marketing.

On the plane from Hangzhou to Suzhou, Simon also got the data of DHO online for one week.

It was officially announced at the end of September that danilis entertainment used all the resources it could use after a month of intensive marketing. In addition, of course, there were a lot of preferential measures.

Mainly coupons.

Things that are too easy to get will never be cherished. Therefore, danilis made a virus marketing campaign to forward advertising Raffles to obtain coupons. The preferential amount ranged from the lowest free to 10% discount. DHO subscribers can use a coupon to deduct fees every month for the first three months.

In addition, it is the channel.

As AOL controlled by Westeros system has opened cable TV service, it is more convenient for AOL cable TV users to open DHO this time. They can order directly through AOL's official website. It is also quite convenient for other partners such as Comcast to open DHO service.

GE's Warner communications is an exception.

Under the pretext that the two sides did not reach an agreement on detailed terms such as sharing, Warner communication is not because danilis entertainment, and even the whole Westeros system, is too strong.

Like Disney on the original timeline.

Disney once launched Disney + to compete with Naifei. Relying on its strong content, the number of registered users easily exceeded 10 million on the first day of launch, and then, in 16 months, the number of paid users exceeded 100 million. At the same time, Naifei streaming media, which has been online for 14 years in 2007, has only 200 million subscribers.

Now, danilis entertainment is not only strong in content, but also resources such as channels and marketing.

1.67 million in the first month, even after the initial heat, the follow-up will slow down slightly. It is expected that after the completion of counter cyclical marketing of this year's winter break plan and the end of the preferential period in the first three months, the total number of subscribers will exceed 5 million, which is more than enough. Moreover, at this rate, DHO can at least catch up with the subscription scale of HBO's North American main station in two to three years.

As for the overseas market, say again.

After reading the report sent by North America, Simon wrote an email to Amy and egger on the plane, mainly to let each other pay attention to the self-made content. The email was sent out, and the Boeing 767 also landed at Guangfu airport in the southwest suburb of Suzhou.

Chen Qing, who was waiting here in advance, saw her boss get off the plane and immediately rushed up and pretended to cry.

Simon simply picked up the girl, walked to the car next to the runway and said with a smile, "Why are you crying? I didn't say I wouldn't let you have a baby?"

"How sad," Chen Qing put her arms around Simon's neck and raised her tearful face: "ah Su has two."

"Then you have two."

Chen Qingdu said, "what if she has three more?"

"You have three, too."

"Four?"

When he came to the car, Simon threw the naughty girl into the car and said with a smile, "then let her give you one."

Chen Qing moved her body and gave way inward. When her boss came in and sat down, she came over and said, "in fact, I think two are already good. It must be very annoying."

"Well, actually I think so," Simon added in a slightly lower voice, pretending to be a gesture, and in a lower voice, "don't tell them."

Chen Qing smiled: "well, boss, you have to bribe me, otherwise I can't guarantee that I'll leak."

"Then kiss."

The car started and went all the way to the manor at the foot of Dayang mountain in the western suburb of Suzhou.

This is the afternoon of November 6.

It's Friday.

Getting off in front of the manor villa, Chen Qing, blushing and holding Simon's arm, walked to the villa and said, "the boss's Tianlong eight is shooting here recently, and Jing Xi is also here, but I didn't tell her you would come. In addition, director Zhang also lives here recently and communicates with the team of brocade book special effects about Chu Han." The special effect scheme of the trilogy, he also saw the CG war lens of the Lord of the rings sent by his boss, and he was very impressed. "

"Yes."

Enter the villa, go through the living room and come to a living room next door. They sit down. Chen Qing changes a more sticky posture and almost lies half on Simon: "also, I prepared a very rich dinner, but there will be others tonight. Boss, how about our world?"

"OK," Simon said. Seeing that Jiangshan dance nearby handed him a cup of coffee, he shook his head: "change a bottle of water."

Chen Qing looked at Jiangshan dance to change the water, blinked and smiled: "boss, in fact, you don't have to pay so much attention."

"It has nothing to do with you," Simon said with a smile. "After I'm 30, I'm going to start keeping fit. Drink less coffee and more water."

Chen Qing, uh huh, nodded her head and said, "in fact, the boss can drink more tea. In Hangzhou, let a su serve snacks. There is the best tea in China."

"In fact, it's not good to drink too much tea. White water is the best."

Chen Qing certainly agrees.

Casually chatting, Jiang Yuanchi came over with a box. Chen Qing took it personally, opened it on her boss's lap and showed the man: "a total of 12 pieces have been carved this time. Ah, 72 cave owners, boss, what does this mean?"

Simon picked up a Tian Huangshi seal the size of a baby's fist, appreciated the writing on it, and said casually, "I think it's very interesting to see journey to the West recently."

"Journey to the west?"

"Yes."

Chen Qing thought it was definitely not that simple, but her boss didn't say it, and she didn't pursue it. She just said: "if journey to the west, it should be engraved with 'Qi Tian Da Sheng'?"

"Monkeys have something to carve," Simon thought of a stem and joked: "I remember a paragraph in the article. The monkeys sent to guard the flat peach garden saw the arrival of the seven fairies, gave them immobilization, and then ran to eat, drink and have fun."

Chen Qing didn't react for a moment: "what's the problem?"

"Seven fairies," Simon deliberately raised his tone a little: "monkeys should also be men. They fixed seven fairies like flowers and jade, and then ran to play."

Chen Qing didn't say a word. Jiang Yuan, who understood next to him, couldn't help laughing.

Chen Qing also reacted and laughed.

Simon also smiled: "so, what's good about Qi Tian Da Sheng? I don't understand the amorous feelings."

Chen Qing is more and more happy.

I'm sure that the "72 cave master" her boss suddenly asked her to engrave must also have something to do with women, just like the "flower boy" last time, but she's not evil enough and doesn't mean to go deep into it. After all, it's not a business.

After a few words and a short rest, Simon got up and went to take a bath. Chen Qing kept up with him. It was inevitable that he would be intimate with his boss this time.

In the evening, I lived on a cruise ship on Taihu Lake again.

The sumptuous dinner and Yu Tingyu, who was called to dance again, just followed by the two people's world.

Some girl was greedy, which led Simon to get up late the next day. He joked and rested tonight. After all, the donkeys of the production team can't use them like this.

After breakfast, go to see the shooting of Tianlong eight.

It has been prepared for a long time and started in the middle of this year. Tianlong Babu is definitely the highest standard TV play in China, surpassing several famous works of CCTV in previous years. Moreover, in addition to investment, the creative lineup this time is also strong, and many film and television winners from Hong Kong and Taiwan have come to help.

It's an interesting thing.

Mainly, Hong Kong films began to collapse last year. Coupled with the economic crisis, they fell to the bottom this year. Many people entered the mainland just to beg for food.

Hong Kong and Taiwan artists have always had a great shelf in the mainland, but the crew of "Tianlong Babu" is an exception.

Chen Qing looked at it personally, and Ren Jingxi, a recognized workaholic and stingy woman in the circle, with a deeper background. Therefore, if you want to work here, you can't get extra high salary, special treatment, and even the right to sign your name.

Of course, the right of authorship was brought about by the restrictions on Hong Kong and Taiwan artists by radio and television after "huanzhu gege" last year.

Without permission, the number of mainland TV drama troupes created by Hong Kong and Taiwan shall not exceed 5, and the number of variety shows shall not exceed 3.

In fact, there are policies at the top and Countermeasures at the bottom.

The countermeasure is not to sign.

In fact, the film and television industry in the mainland is backward and lacks talents, so it can only be introduced from Hong Kong and Taiwan. On the other hand, the film industry in Hong Kong and Taiwan has collapsed and encountered an economic crisis, so it can only "condescend to lower your price". As long as you can make money, you can do it without giving the right of authorship.

Therefore, this kind of thing is very common in the mainland around the new century.

Then again, for a super drama like Tianlong Babu, the above restrictions will certainly not be so tight. If there are more than five, it is easy to pass the filing. However, since there are policies, we still need to take the initiative to cooperate here.

You give me face, and I give you face.

Hello, everyone.

The luncheon was held in a private club at the eastern foot of Dayang. In fact, it was held by the brocade book department.

Very lively.

In addition to Ren Jingxi, several directors of the production team of "Tianlong Babu", as well as Zhang Guoshi, Mo Yiling and other municipal government officials.

The topic mainly focuses on the Jinshu film and television city which is still under intensive construction.

With the launch of a series of film and television dramas, more and more people came to visit Jinshu film and Television City, because regardless of the local investment and the excellent scenery, the reputation also spread rapidly. According to the statistics of the operation team, the total number of tourists attracted by the name exceeded 60000 during the National Day holiday last month.

The city government is therefore quite excited.

Because it has been reported that the state is discussing the development of holiday economy. Starting next year, the May Day and 11 golden week plan will be promoted. At that time, Jinshu film and television city will inevitably become a popular scenic spot in the southeast.

Mo Yiling also specifically mentioned the "Legend of fairy sword and Chivalry" to be broadcast in Beijing at the end of this month.

Compared with hero, the legend of fairy sword and chivalry, which shows the beautiful scenery of peach blossoms in Jinshu film and Television City, is bound to bring a large number of tourists to Jinshu film and television city next spring. Then, next summer, Tianlong Babu will be broadcast, which is also the landscape of Suzhou. Many scenes in the story also take place in Suzhou, which is another publicity.

Then, the shooting of the trilogy of Chu Han and so on.

The whole film and television city is equivalent to making money from major studios and continuous free marketing, so it attracts tourists. It is conceivable that as long as it does not pull its crotch, Jinshu film and television city will definitely become a national popular tourist destination.

Simon personally thinks that when the topic comes to this, the next thing is to ask for money.

Sure enough, Simon was found by Mo Yiling after the lunch.

Ask for money.

Or about the Jinshu amusement park originally planned.

Unlike the Qin palace and other scenic spots, Jinshu amusement park is purely for tourists to play. Mo Yiling hoped to start construction very early after the planning was completed. Simon gave the reason that Jinshu's tourism industry has not been formed and started too early. Once it starts operation in the future, it will only fall into a loss in case of lack of tourists.

Now, considering the construction cycle of two to three years, since Mo Yiling spoke again, Simon agreed.

The budget is also sufficient.

Originally, it was selfish, and Simon also believed that, just as Disneyland was Disney's selfish intention to build a park for his daughter, as long as Jinshu film and television city did a good job, even if the investment is huge now, it will certainly be recovered in the future.

Think about the scene of getting together in various scenic spots in China every holiday.

To put it bluntly, with a huge population base, China's popular scenic spots are still in a seller's market even many years later. What's more, Jinshu film and television city is different from major scenic spots. It belongs to both filming and sightseeing. It's not afraid of off-season.
