Chapter 60 First of all, there must be a star

Seeing Davis drafting a contract there, Fan Wubing stood up, stretched his waist long, and then asked Feng Xiaonan and his wife, "How about buying your company for five million US dollars?"

Five million US dollars? Acquisition of our company?!

Feng Xiaonan and Xia Donghai looked at each other, not knowing whether Fan Wubing was talking crazy or the truth. Although he knew that Fan Wubing seemed to be rich in the past, he didn't know how much wealth he had.

"Basically, I will not interfere too much in the company's staffing issues. I just ask you to slowly achieve the goals I expected according to the roadmap I designed. This should be easy to do, right?" Fan Wubing glanced at the stiff couple, and then continued, "That is to say, the new company is still under your control and leadership, but the ownership has changed. You have changed from a major shareholder to a small shareholder. I will compensate you for Billy's equity, and then inject a large amount of capital in it. In the first year, it will not be less than 10 million US dollars!"

"How much equity do we occupy in the new company? All of what you said can be fulfilled?" Feng Xiaonan was finally a little moved and couldn't help asking.

For Feng Xiaonan and Xia Donghai, the investment of tens of millions of US dollars is really amazing. Although they have been in the United States, they are still ordinary people. After all, they have never seen such a large amount of capital in and out of the way. If they have a hundred thousand US dollars, they are very shocked.

Now Fan Wubing has actually told them the acquisition price of 5 million US dollars, which is very exciting, not to mention leaving them with a leadership position in the new company and promised to invest 10 million US dollars in operation a year. This is equivalent to the 5 million US dollars in vain for his family, and he also invests 1 million US dollars in the new company every year!

If it is well operated, the new company will definitely be popular, and the profits will definitely be indispensable. Coupled with the gains in fame and status, it is simply too tempting!

But, does Fan Wubing have that much money? Don’t just write a blank sheet!

Fan Wubing laughed and said, "At the level of funds that are tens of millions of yuan, I can basically make the decision. Davis, did you bring a transfer check? Just write a check of 15 million US dollars, and this matter will be settled!"

"How about giving some RMB? So much money is US dollars, how troublesome is it to spend?" Xia Xue suddenly interrupted.

Fan Wubing looked at Xia Xue, who had already developed to the point of becoming a new level, and said, "Don't you like to engage in social practice activities? You can exchange US dollars on the black market yourself. It's definitely much more suitable than exchange in the bank!"

Davis had already drafted the acquisition contract while speaking, but although he could speak Chinese, he could not write it, so the whole article was in English. Fortunately, Feng Xiaonan and Xia Donghai both came back from studying abroad, so there was no need to consider these things.

After looking at the contract carefully, I felt that there was no problem, so I looked at the transfer check again, thinking that it would be better to be safer, so Feng Xiaonan asked, "Can you transfer the money first?"

"No problem." Fan Wubing is rich and powerful, so naturally he doesn't have to worry about Feng Xiaonan taking the money to run away.

So Feng Xiaonan took two employees to apply for the payment, while the rest sat in the office and chatted.

As soon as my wife left, Xia Donghai finally had the opportunity to have a good conversation with Fan Wubing.

"Since the contract is also signed, can you reveal your operating ideas?" Xia Donghai was very interested in how Fan Wubing would guide the company's operations. At this time, he saw that several foreign followers were following him at any time. Naturally, he should be very capable and thoughtful, so he still had high hopes for Fan Wubing.

Fan Wubing nodded and said to Xia Donghai, "First of all, we need to be able to provide a large enough stage for the common people to show themselves. This stage can be divided into two parts, and we form part of it as a basic selection to select contestants with high quality, strength and development prospects from a large number of participants. We call it auditions."

"Audio?" Xia Donghai felt refreshed after hearing this, and seemed to have a hot scene of crowds of people in his mind. He couldn't help but admire Fan Wubing's advanced thinking, and then asked, "What?"

"The other part of the stage is to be jointly organized by a large national media, such as CCTV." Fan Wubing scratched his head or said, "This is a bit difficult, but I believe that with my network, it can still be done."

Using the CCTV media stage to cultivate their own artists is a way that Fan Wubing has long considered. If possible, he would naturally choose a local TV station to conduct live broadcasts of auditions, but the difficulty level is not much smaller. It is better to get it done in one step and directly deal with CCTV, and to establish his own entertainment company as the leader in the industry at once.

But there is also a problem now, that is, there are too few channels on CCTV. If you want to increase the channels you broadcast, the difficulty and expenses are very high, and the cost of renting satellite broadcasts is really high. How can you solve this problem? Although Fan Wubing is very clear about the powerful attraction of auditions and civilian stages to TV audiences, it is impossible to make way for official programs like the News Broadcast to give way to entertainment programs.

At worst, you can spend money to buy a satellite to operate communication services and rent the loan to CCTV. In this way, the investment will be a bit big, but in the long run, it is still cost-effective. When the conditions are ripe in the future, you can start your own communications business, without wasting any waste.

Thinking of this, Fan Wubing immediately turned his attention to Hong Kong again. If the mainland cannot do it, there should be no obstacles to conducting satellite programs in Hong Kong.

When it comes to satellite TV, we must talk about the existence of Hong Kong Satellite TV Chinese Channel.

As early as 1988, the Asian Satellite Company formed by Whitney, CITIC and Dadong were established. However, it was not until last year, in 1990 that Li Ka-shing persuaded the Hong Kong government to relax relevant regulations.

In December last year, satellite TV officially obtained a business license, but there are two additional conditions for the Hong Kong government: one is that it cannot play Cantonese programs, and the other is that it cannot charge users. The first condition is actually the result of the pressure from three TV stations, including Wireless, ATV and Cable, putting pressure on the Hong Kong government.

After all, the Hong Kong TV market, which is monopolized by three TV stations, is not big. When the competition is even more fierce when entering the giant TV station, the competition will definitely be even more fierce. The three TV stations are very influential in the Hong Kong government. It is absolutely impossible for the Li family to squeeze in without a balance. In March this year, the satellite TV company was officially established, with Li Ka-shing as chairman, Ma Shimin and Li Ze as vice chairman, and Chen Qingxiang, who has many years of TV experience, served as CEO, with a total investment of HK$3.1 billion. In fact, Fan Wubing knew very well that Li Ze was the actual head of the TV station, and his father Li Ka-shing just took a false position and let his son do it himself. As for Ma Shimin, he also did not interfere in the affairs of satellite TV station because of Li Ka-shing's face. In April, satellite TV began its trial broadcast, and at this time, satellite TV was able to broadcast programs normally using five channels.

In fact, the Hong Kong TV Chinese Channel did not exist for a long time. It was sold to Mercury's News Corporation two years later, becoming a major component of the later famous Phoenix TV.

It is an inevitable trend to get a TV show on the TV show, so Fan Wubing feels that when necessary, he still has to go to Hong Kong to explore the way. If the mainland does not allow it, he will consider starting a satellite TV in Hong Kong first, so that time can't be wasted.

However, when Fan Wubing was preparing to work with CCTV, Xia Donghai said disapprovingly, "CCTV is not easy to do, it involves a lot of complex things. The country is completely different from the United States. You can't solve all problems with money. You'd better be mentally prepared for this."

Fan Wubing smiled, not saying how powerful his operating ability was. He just said to Davis next to him, "Remember this one, we need at least one communication satellite!"

Davis agreed, wrote down Fan Wubing's words, and reminded, "If you buy commercial satellites from other countries, the cost will probably be higher, and the time may be slower. If you rent ready-made communication satellites, the short-term cost will look higher, but once the investment is not good, it will be easy to withdraw."

Fan Wubing nodded and said, "We need to set up a satellite TV company as soon as possible. We must have our own satellite, but we can temporarily consider renting part of the frequency band of a certain communication satellite to make a transition."

"A communication satellite probably costs hundreds of millions of dollars, right?" Xia Donghai always knew that this thing was not cheap, so he couldn't help asking.

"If you buy a few more, you should be able to get a discount." Fan Wubing replied with a smile.
