Chapter 41: Sell it to the opponent

London.

BBC Broadcasting Corporation.

At this moment, there were three people sitting in a huge office.

All three are male.

He is not young, and the oldest man is 60 years old. His name is Klaus Tang, who is the head of the BBC Broadcasting Corporation's Variety Show Operation Department; the other two men are also the management of the operation department.

"Gentlemen, what do you think of the Got Talent's show? Can it achieve high ratings?" asked Klaus Tang.

One of the men named Cindy, who was about 30, said, "Minister, I think it may be a big deal, and we should take over its copyright."

"Oh? You continue." Klaus Tang said.

Cindy nodded and said, "Minister, "The Got Talent" is a variety show of civilian competition. Its core is a group of ordinary people living around us. However, they are not ordinary and have some skills that ordinary people do not have or are far higher than ordinary people. This will definitely attract a large number of grassroots audiences. Therefore, I strongly recommend that you must win the copyright of "The Got Talent", even if you pay 20 million pounds, you will be willing to do so! "

After the words fell, a burst of laughter was suddenly interrupted in the conference room.

"Cindy, you're so funny~!"

"Who are we? We are the BBC with a long history!"

"Who is the copyright owner of "The Got Talent"? They are just a small company in Hollywood."

"Do we professionals need a group of laymen across the Atlantic Ocean to guide us? What ability do they have to guide us?"

"Just rely on the copyright of "The Got Talent"?"

"Stop being funny, okay!"

"I'm still willing to pay anything? I'm even paying 20 million pounds? Cindy, are you crazy."

.........

The man who spoke was also a middle-aged man, his name was Lawrence Dacorta.

Lawrence Dacorta and Cindy are in the same class in the BBC, but they seem to be born with each other and neither of them can stand the other. The reason is that Lawrence Dacorta is an elite who comes from a British aristocratic family and graduated from a well-known university. What about Cindy?

Not to mention going to college, Cindy dropped out of school before even finishing high school.

Let me ask, how can a noble elite who graduated from a higher education university look down on the inspirational young poor boy who is at the same level as him now?

Now, Cindy strongly recommends taking over the copyright of "The Got Talent" and even spending money;

Lawrence Dacorta seized the opportunity, of course he disagreed.

"You~!"

Cindy glanced at the smug Lawrence with resentment, and then continued: "Minister, Wald Pictures is indeed a small company and has never produced any variety shows, but we should not discriminate against it. After all, the planning of "Good Talent" is extremely excellent in my opinion."

"Is this?"

Klaus Don hesitated.

One of his subordinates agreed and the other opposed, and this time he didn't know who was good at listening to.

In fact, the main reason is that he is about to retire and does not want to create trouble in the final stage.

Seeing this, Cindy continued: "Minister, don't forget "Aerial Baby", it is also copyrighted from Wald Pictures!"

In an instant, Klaus Tang's eyes lit up.

Yes, Wald Pictures has no experience, but after "Aerial Baby" was recently aired, it has been invincible in the world in the UK! The surge in ratings has made the company happy.

"Okay, we'll..."

Before Klaus Tang finished his words, he was interrupted by Da Corta: "Minister, don't forget Wald Pictures, because of the copyright of "Aerial Baby", it has snatched a lot of benefits from our BBC! It almost became a laughing stock of our fellow travelers. Now, do you hope this kind of thing will happen again?!"

Klaus Tang was immediately shocked.

"Aerial Baby" made Juke make a lot of money!

It is because the BBC did not pay too much attention to it at the beginning, which made Juke make a big profit. Now Klaus Tang, who is about to retire, certainly does not want to lose his life in the evening.

Immediately, Klaus Tang decided: "Dakorta, the copyright negotiation of "The Got Talent" will be left to you."

"Don't worry, Minister. If the copyright fee is higher than £3 million, I will quit voluntarily!"

Dacorta promised it with confidence.

After saying that, he looked at Cindy proudly and smiled, "Cindy, I will beat you again. I will pay 20 million pounds? Impossible! The American country mud legs can only get up to 3 million pounds!"

Upon hearing this, Cindy suppressed her anger and gritted her teeth and said, "Dakorta, it's not our personal conflict now. The copyright of "The Got Talent" is really excellent. Don't act irritating."

"Hmph! This is my mission, please stop interfering."

After Dacorta finished speaking, he left happily.

.........

.............

On the other side.

Zhuke and Sister Martha, along with two other staff members of the company, arrived in the UK on a flight.

Subsequently, for three consecutive days, Zucker, on behalf of Wald Pictures, negotiated with BBC on the copyright of "The Got Talent".

But the result is not ideal!

BBC negotiator Da Corta performed extremely strongly, and seemed to be not interested in the copyright of "The Got Talent" at all, and his words were full of contempt. This guy almost made Juke so angry.

“3 million pounds?!”

"Damn it~!"

"I won't sell it anymore. What? You said this is my loss? Go to hell!"

The angry Zhuke cursed Da Corta, and the result was of course the talk broke.

Zhuke no longer wants to negotiate with the BBC.

Just as Zhu Ke and others left the BBC Radio Building and returned to the hotel, a man suddenly came to visit.

——Cindy!

That's right, the person who came was Cindy, the management of the BBC Variety Show Operations Department.

When Zhu Ke saw that he was a BBC again, he immediately said angrily: "I would rather let the copyright of "The Got Talent" be put into the warehouse to eat dust than to sell it to you. Why are you here again now?"

Of course, Zhu Ke was very upset.

Cindy was not annoyed, but smiled and said, "Mr. Wald, introduce myself. My name is Cindy Lekde. I had already left the BBC two days ago, so I am not the ideal candidate for you to vent your anger."

What about resigning?

"Oh, then you come in."

For a moment, Zhu Ke was not angry, but instead showed a look of interest.

Interesting, so interesting!

The negotiations with the BBC collapsed, and the former BBC staff came to the door. Why is this?

In the following chat, Zhu Ke finally figured out the reason.

Cindy Lekde had been unsuccessful in the BBC before because he was of a low background and was often excluded. It coincided with the copyright incident of "The Got Talent", Cindy resigned in anger and turned to another broadcaster that he had invited him to join - ITV.

"So, this time you are here to negotiate with us on behalf of ITV?" Zhuke asked.

Cindy nodded and said, "That's right. I got permission from the president of ITV and was fully responsible for the negotiations on "The Got Talent."

Two days later.

Cindy, who is quick to cut the mess, offered a high price for the British copyright of "The Got Talent" that Zucker could not refuse.

——20 million pounds!

What else is there to be dissatisfied with when Zucker offers such a high price?

At this moment, the two reached an agreement.

ITV paid £20 million to win the copyright of "The Got Talent" in the UK and Australia for 6 years.

Zhuke's wealth has increased again!
