Chapter 327: What's the Meaning?
On the land of China in a different time and space, the prelude to a farce is being staged in many places at this moment, and Kim Hyun Tae himself does not know, God knows what kind of people and things he will face when he comes to China.
But that's life, isn't it?
In real life, there are many such things in this time and space, as well as in the original time and space, but ordinary people rarely encounter this kind of thing.
Kim Hyun Tae is lucky that he will soon experience this 'fun'.
Kim Hyun-tae and his daughter, Coco, accompanied George Sr. back to the plane, which departed again after filling up at Katrina Island Airport, and it took two hours to go back and forth.
After the plane flew into the clouds and the flight stabilized, old George found Kim Hyun Tae and handed him a document for him to see, and said to him: "You look at this document first, when you arrive in Japan, you have a lot to do, and I will bring you this time not only to give you a long insight, but also some other things that you need to do." ”
Hearing Old George say this to himself, Kim Hyun Tae immediately understood in his heart, and at the same time glanced down at Old George and handed him the document.
The big head on this document is a bold English mark "Asahi TV's business status", which shocked Kim Hyun-tae's heart.
At this time, old George said, "Isn't it strange why did I show such a document?"
Kim Hyun Tae nodded silently, but he also guessed something in his heart, but he didn't dare to make up his mind before Old George made an announcement.
Old George smiled at this time: "The main purpose of this visit to Japan is to knock and knock them, because there has been a trend of rising right-wing forces in Japan recently, and anti-American sentiment is rising, and the Japanese media are also fueling the flames, so the Congress thinks." We should have 'legal' means to control the Japanese media, and we should not let the Japanese dictate public opinion. ”
Hearing Old George say this, Kim Hyun-tae completely understood.
Basically, there is no deviation from his own judgment, the meaning of the old George is obvious, the hope is to let himself contribute, the old George here to put pressure on the Japanese political circles, and then use cash to enter the Japanese TV media, Asahi TV, to control the direction of public opinion in the future.
At the very least, anti-American public opinion cannot appear, occasionally according to the meaning of the United States. It is also necessary to build momentum for pro-American Japanese politicians or something.
"This is the business situation of Asahi TV, and in general the Japanese media is still profitable, and if you get hold of it and merge it under your CNN Media Group, then your CNN Media Group will expand its influence to Japan, which is good for you.
Of course, it doesn't hurt us in the United States for you to control the Japanese media, and this can be regarded as my reward for you. ”
For Kim Hyun Tae. Old George was still very sincere.
It's not like treating an 'outsider' at all, which makes Kim Hyun-tae a little flattered.
"Mr. George, I really don't know what to do, but I promise if I can win Asahi TV. Then in the future, the public opinion of Asahi TV, which I control, will definitely follow closely with you and the domestic one. ”
Kim Hyun-tae is not stupid or stupid, he named once he succeeds, the general direction is mainly to follow the old George, as for the Congress or something, it is just talk.
For the meaning of these words. Old George understood, too.
If you want to say that old George admires Kim Hyun Tae, it is that he is so smart that he doesn't need to say it so clearly in many cases. Kim Hyun-tae can understand.
"It's not if! Yes, they can definitely take it, the Japanese don't look at their arrogance now, in fact, they are still very jealous of us, the United States. Old George's tone was very determined, and he firmly believed that there would be no surprises in this matter.
And Kim Hyun-tae, of course, also hopes that there will be no twists and turns in this matter, and if he can control such a media in Japan, of course it will be very beneficial to him himself, right?
Hey!
Unexpectedly, this time to accompany George Lao on a visit to Asia, there will be an unexpected gain, I think this trip is definitely worth it.
And this is just Japan, such as South Korea, Thailand, Mongolia and Huaxia themselves have not been there, I wonder if there will be such good things in these countries?
Thinking about it, Kim Hyun-tae couldn't help but open his mind.
"Mr. George, I think it's not just Japan that can be used this time, right......?
In the end, Kim Hyun Tae asked curiously.
Old George smiled and nodded: "Yes, since you are now engaged in the business of media, then as your friend and partner, of course I will help you in this regard, and I have also chosen a media for you in South Korea, but Thailand, Mongolia and China do not." ”
Oh!
South Korea itself has to intervene!
Kim Hyun-tae didn't object much to this, but old George said that Thailand, Mongolia and the three countries of China, and he might not be able to get involved, which made him a little disappointed.
But if you think about it, it's nice to be able to get involved in the media industry in Japan and South Korea under the influence of George Sr., isn't it?
So why should I be so greedy?
Therefore, Kim Hyun-tae quickly put this matter behind him, and began to carefully look at the document about Asahi TV that George Sr. handed him.
Founded in 1959, Asahi TV broadcasts programs mainly for children's education, business, and introduction to foreign cultures.
Its headquarters moved to Roppongi Hills in Tokyo, Japan in 2003, and its wired and wireless news network covers all of Japan, with more than 30% of Japanese households as its loyal audience.
The number of spectators alone was also an important point that made George Sr. choose it as his target.
Unlike NHK, which is a national nature, and "Imperial TV", which is biased towards the right, Asahi TV is very good in terms of both comprehensive programs and fixed paid subscribers.
In addition, the Asahi Shimbun also controls a newspaper with a circulation of 120 million copies per day, which can be said to have a lot of influence in public opinion.
At least from the documents, I can see this, and Kim Hyun Tae is already very moved by this media.
If such a well-run and stable media is merged into CNN, it will be of great benefit to CNN, and more importantly, CNN will have a voice and influence in Asia.
To know. Japan has a population of 1.3 billion.
Of course, Asahi TV not only owns "Seikei Times", but also operates one of the largest SE and romance film shooting companies in Japan, which is the same as CNN's adult film company, and it is a very profitable company.
And that's not all.
When Kim Hyun-tae saw the end, even he was completely dumbfounded.
Asahi TV also has a cultural publishing house, which specializes in publishing 18 banned comics and magazines, and they are all very profitable.
Adult Film Company. There are also hundreds of women who have signed contracts with the 18th Forbidden Publishing House......
Oops, I'll go!
I'm a media tycoon, but I don't want to be a sex tycoon!
After putting down the document about Asahi TV in his hand, Kim Hyun-tae complained about this problem in his heart with some pain.
If you think about it, it's not a good idea.
If he really wins Asahi TV and merges into the CNN group in the future, then Kim Hyun-tae will be equivalent to mastering the two major adult film companies that span the United States and Asia.
Isn't he a tycoon in an industry 'worthy of the name' at that time?
When he joined CNN, Las Vegas invited him to participate in the exhibition, so wouldn't Japan invite him in the future?
It's a little awkward to think about.
Kim Hyun-tae shook his head with a wry smile.
However, Kim Hyun-tae also lamented that this adult film company under Asahi TV. Its earning power is still very strong, as can be seen from last year's profit data alone.
It is far more than CNN's adult film company, which earned $3.5 billion in 2015 and is still a net profit.
I have to say. Japan in a different time and space, in terms of se, love karma, and the Japan in my memory of my previous life, is really exactly the same in this regard.
For this reason, Kim Hyun-tae was very emotional.
"Mr. George, though you have this intention. I also agree that it is possible to make a contribution, but with Asahi TV's business doing so well, can its shareholders solve it so easily?"
At this time, Kim Hyun-tae suddenly thought of a very critical question.
Truly. Since Asahi TV is making a profit, how can those who are now in control of this media be willing to get out.
If it were Kim Hyun-tae himself, he wouldn't be willing to be at the mercy of this.
Hearing this, old George smiled gloomily: "Of course I have a way, I can definitely force these people to obey, not to mention these people, even if all the Japanese politicians have what color their bottoms are, these are all in the hands of our United States, and these people's pigtails are still easy to deal with." If I don't eat hard and soft, I still have a way!"
In the end, a hint of coldness flashed in Old George's eyes.
This made Kim Hyun-tae on the side tremble.
Only then did he realize that old George was far from being as kind as he usually appeared, and that sometimes he was also a 'ruthless' person.
But this is also normal, George Sr. has been in American politics for decades, and if he was really a good man, he wouldn't have been able to mix for so long, wouldn't he?
"Don't worry, you don't have to worry about these things, you just need to prepare the funds, and then you can take over Asahi TV, and the Japanese government and some other things will be left to me. ”
Well, since old George said so, what else can Kim Hyun-tae say.
At this time, Old George suddenly winked at Kim Hyun-tae, and looked at him playfully and reminded: "The way Japan entertains people like us is very special, you have to be mentally prepared for this, you are the first time to contact, so in order to make you not make a fool of yourself, I think it is better to remind you." ”
Well!?
What does that mean?
Kim Hyun Tae suddenly spartan. (To be continued.) )
