In the car, Xiao Yunhai said, "Robert, your work efficiency is very high. I heard that you even settled 'Millionaire'. "
The work of a television station was very complicated, especially a television station that had yet to start broadcasting and was not on the right track. It could be described as a myriad of things to do.
And this Robert Dornheim only used three months to set up a television station that covered North America. This made Xiao Yunhai feel a little incredulous. He originally thought that Marvel TV station would only start broadcasting in June at the very least.
Robert smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, we should thank Paramount Pictures for this. The television station they left us is very complete. All kinds of equipment are available. As long as the staff is in place, there won't be any problems."
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be humble. I heard from Raúl that you're a workaholic. You work until at least midnight every day before you get off work. Robert, this won't do. Work will never be finished, but once there's a problem with your body, it'll be big trouble. "
Robert said, "Thank you for your concern, Boss. Previously, it was because some of the matters at the television station were very complicated to deal with. I had no choice but to work overtime to complete them. Once the television station is on the right track, the various departments will perform their duties and cooperate closely. That will be much easier. "
Raúl said, "Robert, you should report to Boss about the current situation of the television station."
Robert nodded and explained the relevant situation of the television station.
They were preparing to hold an opening party on April 12th. They invited many Hollywood celebrities to perform on stage to strengthen their reputation.
At the same time, Marvel TV station bought many excellent television dramas from other film companies. There were sci-fi dramas, comedies, detective dramas, horror dramas, and so on. There were all kinds of themes, which could completely satisfy the needs of the television station.
The six superhero television dramas that Marvel had invested in were in full swing. Two of them were in the final stages, and three animated films had been completed. There were four animated films in production, including "Transformers 3". It was estimated that it would take less than a month for them to be shown to the audience.
News programs, interview programs, and variety shows were naturally indispensable.
Especially the variety show. After Robert got Xiao Yunhai's approval, he immediately started to organize the recording of "Millionaire." Seven episodes had already been completed, and the results were very good. One lucky person answered all the questions correctly and received ten million dollars.
Once the news got out, it caused a huge reaction in Hollywood.
Under such circumstances, it was almost impossible for the ratings of "Ten Million Billionaire" to have problems again.
Other than "Ten Million Billionaire," "The Voice of America," which was adapted from "Hua Xia's Voice," had also entered the preparation stage. Countless people had signed up for it.
Hollywood had no shortage of talented singers. Within a week, more than 60 contestants had been selected to participate in The Voice.
Once the four mentors were chosen, the recording could begin immediately.
Robert said, "Boss, in order to fire the first shot at our television station, we've paid a huge price. For example, we spent a lot of money to buy those excellent TV series, and some of them even got a lot of advertising revenue. Also, the hosts of those news programs and interview programs are very famous in the industry, so we've spent quite a lot on them as well. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about the money. I still say the same thing, don't worry about the money. Our Marvel TV Station wants to become a premium television station, so this money should and must be spent. As long as the television station becomes famous, the profits will continue to come in. Robert, do you have any other problems with the television station? "
Robert thought for a while and said, "Boss, because our Marvel TV Station is still a new television station, a lot of people have reservations about us. For example, we've invited a few famous singers to be the music mentors for 'The Voice of America,' but they all rejected us. "
Xiao Yunhai asked, "Is it because the price you gave them was too low?"
Raúl quickly shook his head and said, "Boss, the price was definitely not low. It even exceeded their appearance fee by 20%, but still, no one agreed."
Xiao Yunhai said, "Has the stage, sound system, and other preparations for 'The Voice of America' been completed?"
Robert nodded and said, "The stage and sound system that Paramount built at the television station are all of the best quality. As long as the mentors are in place, we can start recording immediately."
Xiao Yunhai chuckled and said, "Looks like I still have to thank Hanks properly. I know quite a few singers. Alright, leave this matter to me. "
Robert said happily, "Thank you, Boss."
With Xiao Yunhai's current status in the entertainment industry, he believed that there wouldn't be any singer who wouldn't give him face.
Raúl said, "Boss, I heard from Madam Christy that as long as we sell the Paramount amusement park that you won to Time Warner, Marvel TV Station will be able to get the broadcasting license for the European region, right?"
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "That's right. I was just about to discuss this matter with you. "
Raúl said, "There's no need to discuss it, Boss. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The Paramount amusement park is not compatible with our Marvel culture. It's like a small kingdom, independent of Marvel. Besides, Marvel's children's theme park is in full swing right now. Whether or not we have the Paramount amusement park in the future won't affect us much. If we can use it to exchange for a more useful television broadcasting license for the European region, then this transaction will be worth it. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Since you all have such an attitude, then alright, I will go and have a good talk with the CEO of Time Warner. By the way, didn't you say that the game Warcraft has passed the open beta? What are you all planning to do? "
Raúl said, "After a meeting with Shemo, Matthew, and Allen, the three of them decided to release the game in the European and American regions first. After it becomes popular in the European and American regions and becomes famous, it will then spread to other regions."
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "Are they not confident enough? After years of failure, they are a little worried that if their business is too big, it will cause huge losses to Storm Game Company, right? "
Raúl nodded and said, "I think so too."
Xiao Yunhai thought for a moment and said, "Well, let's have a meeting tomorrow at nine o 'clock in the morning. You can ask the heads of all the departments to come."
Raúl said, "Okay, Boss."
Back at the manor villa, Xiao Yunhai had a simple meal and called Elliot.
"Hey, Xiao, long time no see."
After the last "Night of Singers" competition, the two of them had become very good friends, so Elliot and Xiao Yunhai were very casual when they talked.
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "Elliot, what are you busy with?"
Elliot said, "After the 'Night of Singers' ended, I've been preparing an album. All the MVs were just shot yesterday. In less than a month, I'll meet the fans. Xiao, my goal for this album is to sell 130 million copies. "
Xiao Yunhai laughed loudly and said, "That will depend on whether you have the ability or not. Let me tell you, I'm also working on an album for my wife. All ten songs have been settled. Next, I'll promote her by hitting the charts. Haha, if we get first place again for more than ten weeks in a row, the feeling will probably be very good. "
"Don't even think about it." Elliot shouted, "You already embarrassed the entire European and American music industry last year. If you do it again this year, how can we still have the face to sing? Xiao, my album will also hit the charts. I will never let your conspiracy succeed. "
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Then come at me. We are not afraid of you."
Elliot said, "Then just you wait. I will definitely defeat you. By the way, why did you call me? "
Xiao Yunhai told Elliot about the 'The Voice of America' and said, "Elliot, help us. With our recording speed, we can finish it in less than a month. At that time, we can also do some promotion for your album."
Elliot thought for a moment and asked, "Who are the other three coaches?"
Xiao Yunhai was delighted. He knew that Elliot was inclined to agree. The reason why he asked was probably to weigh whether the other three coaches were worthy of him.
After all, Elliot was a heavenly king singer. If the coaches he found were too far away from him, it would be too unsuitable.
Xiao Yunhai said, "You are the first coach I found. Next, I plan to find Katerina, David, and Ista. They are all our opponents in the 'Night of Singers'. What do you think? "
Elliot said happily, "Of course, it's good. Ista and I have a good relationship. A few days ago, she was complaining that nothing happened recently. I think she should be fine. I'll help you ask. As for Katerina and David, you can do it yourself. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "That's great. Elliot, thank you very much. "
After the call with Elliot, Xiao Yunhai called Katerina and David respectively. The two of them agreed without hesitation.
After a while, Elliot also received good news. Ista had agreed.
In this way, all four mentors had been found.
Xiao Yunhai invited them to the manor villa for a party the next afternoon. The recording of the show would start the day after tomorrow.
