Chapter 183 Strength gap
The free rebroadcasting of Dream Realization video has expanded Dongchao's viewership to hundreds of millions.

In addition, powhi's vigorous publicity and traffic support have made many fans pay attention to this vigorous event.

The two hottest superstars in the Eastern Super League are Zhao Rui, who has been transferred to Tianjin Jinniu, and Lu Zun, who is from Beijing Longteng.

With a strong style of play and handsome looks, there are high voices for the two to join the national team.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the rhythm and intensity of the Eastern Super League are far better than the CBA.

Previously, several CBA players whose contracts had expired were recruited by some owners of the Eastern Super League.

When interviewed by the media, they also expressed that the competitive level of the Eastern Super League is much better than that of the CBA.

In the past, they also had the strength to compete for starting players in their respective teams.

But when he came to the East Super League, he could only play as a substitute.

The starting players of each team have the ability to gain a foothold in the NBA, and they cannot compete with others at all.

Due to the early start of the Eastern Super League, the opening game in August has already officially started.

At this time, the CBA free trade market is also turbulent. Countless CBA players are looking forward to it, hoping to win the favor of the Eastern Super League teams.

Any fool can see that the Eastern Super League has much more potential than the CBA.

To be able to win the league favored by consortiums such as Abramovich and Abu Dhabi has potential.

Abu Dhabi and other consortiums, like Abramovich, use their holding companies to sponsor the Eastern Super League, with an amount of 5 million U.S. dollars for five years.

In addition, Yangma Sports Channel recently sent someone to find Matt, hoping to reach a consensus with the Eastern Super League on the rebroadcast fee.

China is different from the United States. The NBA's broadcast fees are billions of dollars every year.

In China, the payment market is far from mature.

Previously, Yang Ma bought the TV broadcast rights of the NBA, but it was only 7000 million US dollars per year.

Compared with the NBA in its home country, it can obtain nearly 26 billion US dollars in broadcast fees every year. This is the reason why NBA stars often earn tens of millions of dollars in annual salary.

In our country, we must not even think about it.

But all the gold owners who bought copyrights did not lose money and make money.

This means that Boss Shen has a lot of money, and the rebroadcasting fees offered by Yuanmeng Film and Television will not hurt the nerves.

Bigger surprises are yet to come.

Powhi officially announced that the platform will pay the Eastern Super League an annual copyright fee of 2 million US dollars and obtain the content authorization of the Eastern Super League. All users of the platform can freely upload any video related to the Eastern Super League.

When the news came out, the confidence of many investors in Dongchao was instantly strengthened.

With such a set of combined punches, I just ask you if you are afraid.

With Powhi obtaining the content authorization of the Eastern Super League, Douyin, Kuaishou, and Bilibili can no longer use the safe harbor principle.

The people in charge of these platforms are scolding their mothers. Originally, everyone tacitly planned to use the safe harbor principle to minimize the cost of competition copyright.

But now that Powhi has made such a move, how can they have the courage to continue to indulge users to upload videos?

The so-called safe harbor principle roughly means that the platform can argue that the content is uploaded by the user himself. The platform does not know that the content is infringing, and has no obligation to actively review it, so the platform has no responsibility.

As long as the infringed party notifies the platform and provides the necessary evidence, as long as the platform deletes it in time and can provide the information of the uploader, then it does not need to bear the responsibility.

Several platforms have begun to remove videos about the Eastern Super League, causing many bloggers and users to scold their mothers.

Without copyright, they naturally dare not take the risk of letting users upload videos.

……

The person in charge of Yangma Sports Channel, Jiang Zhengping and Shen Hao chatted happily.

After exchanging pleasantries, Jiang Zhengping cut to the chase, "Mr. Shen, regarding the copyright of Dongchao, our sports channel has decided to give 3000 million US dollars per year. What do you think?"

"Director Jiang, you should have heard about Powhi's purchase of copyright recently, right?"

Shen Hao smiled and asked, "Except for Powhi, Douyin, Kuaishou, and Station B, they are all talking about copyright fees recently, which are expected to bring us 5 million US dollars in revenue. Do you think 3000 million US dollars is beneficial to us?" Attractive?"

Jiang Zhengping was slightly embarrassed when he heard this.

Compared with those rich and powerful short video platforms, traditional TV stations are indeed relatively rational in this regard.

"Mr. Shen, after all, the Eastern Super League has just been established, and we bought the copyright of the NBA for only 7000 million U.S. dollars per year."

"Our quotation is already very sincere."

Jiang Zhengping was noncommittal, he didn't even dare to prick the NBA, if a new tournament of yours can reach 3000 million US dollars, he is already very optimistic about you.

"Matt, help me see off the guests."

Shen Hao shook his head, he had no intention of continuing the conversation.

At this price, he would rather not sell it.

"Mr. Shen, what do you mean?"

Jiang Zhengping was stunned for a moment, a little unresponsive.

"Director Jiang, our boss has other people to meet, please..."

Matt trotted over, smiling and making invitation gestures.

Jiang Zhengping shook his hands and left angrily, and put down his harsh words.

The sports channel only offered 3000 million U.S. dollars. If it didn't sell, Dongchao wouldn't even think about broadcasting it on other TV stations in the mainland.

But only there.

The energy of Fulfilling Dream Film and Television cannot be completely suppressed by a mere director of a sports channel.

Shen Hao didn't take it seriously at all, and turned around and ordered people to speed up the acquisition of TVB.

TVB, for many Cantonese, is as cordial as mother TV.

Especially in the eighties and 90s, TVB's brand was resounding, and no one in the mainland could match it.

Now the decline of TVB is obvious to all.

The program is not good-looking and cannot withstand the impact of online videos.

Artists earn less money and have no motivation to work, and high-level gangs form cliques and fight endlessly.

Last year, the net loss was as high as 6 million, and the stock price plummeted all the way to the current mere 20 billion.

It can be said that the current TVB is almost ruined.

If it weren't for some hoarding of film and television copyrights forcibly renewing their lives, they would have gone bankrupt and liquidated long ago.

The acquisition of TVB is a drop in the bucket for Shen Hao's huge wealth.

When the news that Shen Hao wanted to acquire TVB came out, the stock price of TVB soared in response. As far as this old film and television empire, which had been in the doldrums for a long time, finally returned to the public eye.

Many Hong Kong stars have gone north to film in unanimous agreement, because they are looking at the mainland to make money. Compared with the time when the agent was in TVB, the entertainment companies in the mainland are more generous.

CMC, which has dealt with several times before, tried its best to persuade other shareholders on the board of directors to sell TVB shares.

They can't wait to get rid of TVB, which is like a hot potato.

TVB itself is poorly managed and the management is chaotic, which makes Chinese culture a headache.

They are foundation institutions, not charitable companies.

Investing in TVB naturally hopes to see a good return.

But the result?

The pants are almost lost.

TVB is regarded as a very bad asset by the outside world.

Now that Shen Hao has revealed his interest in the acquisition, CMC is actively cooperating.

Other shareholders are also happy to get out at a relatively good price.

In the end, with 40 billion Hong Kong dollars, Shen Hao took TVB under his banner.

When the news came out, it caused heated discussions again.

The territory of Shen Hao's media empire has already taken shape.

Holding TVB TV Station, Dream Video, Iflix, Powhi and other media platforms.

Shen Hao's status as a media tycoon has also been recognized by the outside world.

TVB's delisting from the Hong Kong stock market is also expected by many people.

In detail, Summit Group and Richemont Group are both privately owned groups of the Shen family, possessing huge wealth unimaginable by ordinary people.

After Shen Hao took over, TVB also ushered in a round of cleaning.

The incompetent managers who occupy high positions have been dismissed one after another and replaced by a group of smart and capable new managers.

After TVB replaced its new boss, it took the lead in brewing a big move.

The exclusive TV copyright of the Eastern Super League was acquired by TVB.

And TVB's bid has reached an astonishing 2 million US dollars, and it is still this figure every year.

This is outrageous.

Shen Hao's acquisition of TVB only cost US$5 million.

Now TVB has spent 2 million U.S. dollars when it changed hands, and has become the only TV station designated to broadcast events in the Eastern Super League.

Anyway, TVB is Shen Hao's own private property, and no one can say anything if he is willing to spend the money.

The artists and behind-the-scenes staff in TVB are all excited about it.

It is well known that the Hong Kong circle is desolate.

Taking TVB as an example, ordinary artists can only earn income from the basic salary and some shows that the company takes over, and the amount is not higher than that of ordinary wage earners.

Actors appear on the scene once every half an hour, which counts as a Show.

Each show can earn 800 Hong Kong dollars, and for this 800 Hong Kong dollars, they may have to work for three to five days.

TVB's screenwriters and other behind-the-scenes staff, including overtime pay, can only get a monthly salary of about 1 Hong Kong dollars.

However, the work intensity of TVB artists is often ridiculously high.

Even old artists often filmed scenes exhausted, until they got sick or even "until they died".

But despite this, the company did not show any sympathy, and even laid off employees and cut salaries...

This also led to the lack of motivation for the artists to film, the creation was perfunctory, there was no excellent script, and even the cold rice was not cooked well, and the ratings dropped severely.

If it weren't for the fact that the peers were even more hip-stretching, TVB would have been cold for a long time.

The team is aging, the thinking is aging, and the operating mechanism is aging.

One by one, the famous female stars have terminated their contracts and went north to embrace the huge mainland market. TVB is even more ineffective, so they can only rely on some old faces to support them.

For Shen Hao, the acquisition of IP copyrights of classic film and television works obtained by TVB still has certain value.

Boss Shen doesn't have much else, just a lot of money.

The 500 billion US dollars provided to him by the system has not been spent even a tenth.

What's more, now TVB can be called the floor price.

If TVB is brought back to life in his own hands, the evaluation he will get will be quite astonishing.

Sports channels continue to hold the stinky feet of the NBA, but some TV stations in the mainland want to share the copyright of the Eastern Super League.

After all, TVB's viewing group is limited to Hong Kong and Guangdong.

But with Jiang Zhengping's 'blocking' notice, at most it was just a private contact.

In terms of return on investment, TVB must have lost a lot.

But who made the boss behind him rich, TVB raised the income level of employees with great fanfare.

As the domestic entertainment carrier of [-] billion yuan, Yuanmeng Film and Television even signed a ten-year strategic cooperation agreement with TVB in one go.

TVB has the right to broadcast for two or more rounds of TV dramas produced by Yuanmeng Films and Television.

As a leader in internal entertainment, the self-control ability of Yuanmeng Film and Television has been recognized by all netizens.

A series of dramas with overwhelming ratings has captured the hearts of countless netizens. In the field of long videos, it can be called the only one.

In the previous cooperation model, the self-produced drama series of Yuanmeng Film and Television will be broadcast simultaneously on Taiwan and the Internet.

At a price of 500 million yuan per episode, the TV station obtained the right to broadcast the first round of S-level film and television dramas.

Every time a dream come true film and television series is launched, it will be snatched up by many TV stations.

There is a saying in Neiyu, you can always trust the film and television dramas produced by Yuanmeng Film and Television.

The slogan that the product produced by Yuanmeng must be a high-quality product has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

After some negotiations, Douyin paid 2 million U.S. dollars, and Kuaishou and Bilibili needed to pay 5000 million U.S. dollars to obtain the content authorization of the Eastern Super League.

Also, these are annual prices.

Bilibili gritted its teeth, and the price of 5000 million US dollars was still acceptable.

After all, Kuaishou is also a company with a market value of trillions, and there is no pressure to spend this money.

Under the focus of Boss Shen's attention, Douyin had to spend 2 million U.S. dollars in pain. Who made them rich.

If you want to kill, you will die naturally.

Zhang Yiming regretted that. He knew that he would also buy the qualification for the Eastern Super League, but now he really lost his wife and lost his army.

Just for content authorization, Dongchao won 5 million US dollars, which is really fat.

After giving the money, several companies will be able to let platform experts and users upload videos related to the East Super League game with peace of mind in the future, and at most they will find supplements from the advertising budget.

The meeting ceremony of Abu Dhabi, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia joining the Eastern Super League is also in line with the usual rich and powerful oil tycoons.

Several companies have presented sponsorship contracts with the same total value as Abramovich's before, 5 million U.S. dollars in 1 years.

Calculated, the Eastern Super League has thus gained 8000 million US dollars in sponsorship income.

Coupled with TVB's annual 2 million U.S. dollars, Jianjia Motors has become the main sponsor of the Eastern Super League.

Dongchao's future annual revenue will reach a terrifying 18 billion U.S. dollars, which is only the result of Dongchao not long after its establishment.

But it was enough to shock the outside world!

Even the NBA can't sit still.

The income they can obtain from the country is about 10 billion US dollars per year.

But right now, the Eastern Super League has the potential to eat away at the $10 billion market.

The market value of each NBA team is inseparable from the strong commercial value of the NBA.

The latest round of rebroadcast fee negotiations had already gone smoothly, but now the TV station's attitude is also ambiguous.

If the Chinese market is affected and the local ratings are still declining, the NBA will be in real danger.

Matt, the honorary chairman of the Eastern Super League, also held a press conference to announce that the salary cap of each team in the Eastern Super League next season will rise to 3750 million US dollars, which is already far behind the CBA by a few blocks.

The three major consortiums also received a meeting gift from Shen Hao, and their strength is no less than that of the top all-star players in the current league.

Relying on Zhao Rui and Lu Zun alone will not be able to drive the overall football market of the Eastern Super League to improve.

The contention of a hundred schools of thought was what Shen Hao wanted to see.

It just so happened that the men's basketball team recently played a warm-up match with the University of Alabama, an NCAA Division I team, and lost to the opponent with a score of 77-89.

You know, that's not the US men's basketball team, it's just an NCAA team that will be eliminated in the first round of March Madness.

It is even said that the best player in the University of Alabama team is only likely to be selected at the end of the first round.

Such a team, even though they didn't play all the time, directly proved the strength of the men's basketball team, which is really good.

Amid heated discussions on the Internet, the University of Alabama was invited to the Jingcheng Jianjia Center Arena to participate in a warm-up match against Beijing Longteng.

The national team lost to this college team on the front foot, and Beijing Longteng invited the opponent over on the back foot, which instantly excited the fans who smelled the smell of gunpowder.

In this kind of university team, the students don't have much right to speak. As long as the students accept the invitation, they can only obediently come over.

In terms of appearance fees, Beijing Longteng offered 200 million US dollars, which was enough for the University of Alabama to readily agree.

The game attracted 18000 fans to watch it live.

What was shocking was that none of the main players of Jingcheng Longteng played in the whole game.

Ten substitute players played the entire game.

The final score was 102-84. Beijing Longteng, who played at home, easily defeated the opponent with 18 points.

The teenager Jiangnan who was originally guarding the drinking fountain became famous in the first battle. He scored 35 points and 15 assists in a single game, showing the demeanor of an NBA-level point guard.

After the game, the reporter interview session.

The head coach of the University of Alabama also has to admit that the strength of Beijing Longteng is too strong, and it definitely has the strength of the NCAA semi-finals.

Don't think this is a low rating.

You know, many of the NCAA Final Four players are future NBA stars.

Being able to get the evaluation of the other party is really exciting for domestic fans.

The national team lost to the school team, and Jingcheng Longteng's substitute beat the school team.

If this is the main force, why not blow up the opponent?
