Chapter 1381

"It's Eli."

Song Ya didn't leave ACN after recording the program. When the outside world was surprised that he threw 100 million knives to take 757 as a palace in the air, he, Ms. Sloan and ACN director Charles Skinner were having a closed door meeting until very late.

Littman tells the secret, but leishidong is not necessarily the first one to ask for ACN and ACE, but Skinner. After all, Littman and leishidong didn't have much in common, Skinner and leishidong are Jewish.

So he and Sloan want to test Skinner's loyalty.

They were very careful. They didn't talk about the future of ACN before. Sloan mainly talked with Skinner about the role of ACN in the general election, while Songya sat by and sipped silently, only to insert a word occasionally.

Skinner, with white hair, was old and tired as soon as the morning passed. He had just received a phone call.

Skinner didn't say that Sonya knew who it was. Eli, Peter's chief of staff and campaign manager, roared from the receiver. He could hear a few words from afar.

"Peter is very angry about Joan Stewart's prank today, isn't he?" Song Ya asked.

"Of course, today is the first time we've treated the governor like this..."

Skinner wry smile, "they insist on not to quit the election, it makes Gore deputy commander team angry."

"Well."

Song Ya nodded. I can't hide the intimate relationship between myself and Peter from such old media people as Skinner, although he doesn't know the details

"In a word, from today on, we will give our full support to Mr. deputy commander. Let Peter and Eli get angry and let them get angry."

Today, it's past the deadline I set for Peter. It's only a few days before the Silicon Valley tycoons' ultimatum in May, but Peter is still in the air and running in Florida.

At the thought of this, song Ya was full of trouble and pressure.

"By the way, Charlie, what do you think of the future of our two TV stations?"

Sloan felt Skinner's vigilance was weak, and took this opportunity to suddenly start to test, "Johnson's bet TV network is going to sell, Viacom and other giants have started bidding, and we, Littman media, are also involved?"

"Can you afford it?" Skinner was surprised. "I estimate that the transaction price will be about $3 billion. According to the current market value of Littman media... Do you want to play a snake eating elephant?"

"Let's assume we don't have to think about money."

Songya and Sloan have always cooperated with each other. As a big boss, he began to beat the drum, "do you just analyze the possibility?"

"Johnson, the boss of bet, is an iron elephant party. He probably won't sell it to Disney ABC, Microsoft NBC, AOL Time Warner and other liberal media alliances. Even if he wants to sell it, the elephant party will block it. We are the same. Of course, we have a advantage. Bet is African American's own TV network. If you buy aplus, the resistance will be a little less, a little bit, and the elephant party will still attack with all its strength. You, Ms. Sloan, me, and Joan Stewart are all diehard donkeys. Gordon left bet and joined the liberals. He used the infidelity scandal to stink the ultra conservative representative Dan Burton and elephant house leader Newt Gingrich

Skinner began to analyze seriously, "except for Johnson and other senior executives, because it is more and more inclined to the entertainment field this year, the background of bet's middle and lower classes has already been inclined to liberals, which is very similar to the current situation of leishidong's Viacom CBS. The senior executives of leishidong and CBS are inclined to conservatives, but its MTV television network and some young employees are also in the liberal camp, The best fit is when bet is included by Viacom. And Redstone has been negotiating with Johnson for a long time... Redstone is nearly 80 years old. As time goes on, Viacom and bet will turn around to liberals sooner or later. "

Ha ha, sure enough, she is talking for Lei Shidong. Of course, she may be talking about the matter. Sloan and song Ya look at each other quietly. She asks, "you didn't mention Fox News Corporation just now."

"They are too conservative to buy an African American TV network, and Johnson can't sell it." Skinner replied.

"What if we're looking for buyers, too?"

Sloan gradually approached the truth, "you know, Charlie, Littman media lost a lot in the stock market crash. Which one of the potential buyers do you think is the most sincere?"

"I didn't think about it..."

Skinner heard the news and murmured, "a few years after we moved from Atlanta, a lot of employees have started to settle down in Chicago... Are you going to sell, aplus?"

Pretending or not? This kind of old fox song Ya won't let down his heart just by his expression and action, "or that sentence, don't consider other factors first, you just talk about the matter and then analyze it?"

"We have a much wider range of potential buyers than bet. First of all, ABC is my old owner and McAvoy. ABC's 24-hour news plan just didn't come true. Now ACN is gradually starting to work. They can buy it back to supplement the short board. I know that most of the distribution business of aplus's films and record companies is in the hands of Disney, and you have a good relationship with Disney's Eisner, Linton, Harvey and others... "

Skinner broke his fingers to count: "next is Comcast, who has the right to broadcast ACN and ace. It is reasonable for Comcast to deepen its control over its TV stations. Then it's good for companies like clear media to win ACN, so they can enter the field of 24-hour news. Leishidong's Viacom... Should also be willing to buy it. Leishidong seems to like McAvoy's hosting style very much. His motto is "content is king". The hip-hop Conference on ace can seamlessly integrate into Viacom's MTV system.... "

"Then AOL Time Warner and Microsoft NBC alliance should not need ACN very much at present. ACN, Cuu and NBC overlap too much, but it seems that they have no choice but to win. They are rich and powerful, and play acquisition willful and normal. News Corporation... Still impossible, fox subscribers should not be happy to see them buy your TV station, your film company is still fighting a legal war with fox. "

"OK, I probably understand."

It seems that his TV station is already fragrant, and Skinner doesn't seem to have reached a secret tacit understanding with Lei Shidong. Song Ya is a little relieved.

"Are you going to sell it?" Skinner worried instead and advised: "owning these two TV stations, especially ACN, is very good for your personal influence. You built this place from scratch... "He pointed to the a + records headquarters building opposite the window." remember not long ago, this place was still a wasteland. Do you really want to give up when you encounter a little frustration? Don't start to enjoy yourself too early, boss... "

"Ah! I don't really get much for myself. "

Song ya Tucao, "most people want to make complaints about ACN, they will not come to me." He automatically ignores that he made others less annoyed.

"Ha ha, I understand, Littman." Skinner laughs. It's true that a lot of external PR have gone to Littman.

This is also the reason why Littman didn't protect his company in the stock market crash, but still chose to inform. If ACN is in the hands of media tycoon Lei Shidong, what will he be? It's far less comfortable and beautiful than it is now.

At this time, there is a phone call for Skinner. Song Ya takes the opportunity to communicate with Sloan quietly. Their judgment is the same. Skinner should have no big problem.

"Little Daly's younger brother, Gore camp, intends to use a new campaign strategy to quell the doubts about the Internet bubble's collapse."

Skinner received the phone report: "they will use a new script:" deputy commander Gore has created the prosperity of the Internet industry. Now the industry has encountered problems, and only Gore can save it. "

Who should tie the bell? Song Ya raised his eyes and thought about it. It is true that many tycoons in the Internet industry now turn to the loose regulatory environment advocated by the party. The gore camp reiterated that this can make them and investors see the reality clearly.

"Yes, just do what Gore says."

Anyway, Peter is too disappointing, and Gore's relationship should continue to repair, Sonya yawned, "it's late, everyone is tired, let's have a rest."

He and Sloan left ACN, which is Littman media headquarters.

The next day, all kinds of media tacit understanding to launch a simultaneous clamor.

ACN host Gordon: "have you ever thought about it? Deputy commander Gore has created the prosperity of the Internet industry for many years. Now the industry has encountered some troubles. Who is more suitable to be the person to lead us back to the right track in the crisis than deputy commander Gore? No one. Mr. deputy commander is the only choice. "

Cuu: "Gore created it and can save it, or you want to destroy it with your votes. The Internet industry is in urgent need of your votes."

Wired magazine: "the only candidate is gore. No one knows the Internet industry better than him. We need him, and only he can lead us out of the haze of the stock market disaster..."

ABC: "little George, the Texas cowboy, will only destroy the New York stock market. There is only one person who can restart a new round of prosperity. That is Mr. Gore, the current deputy commander..."
