199 Return to Japan
At this time, the technology of live broadcasting news via satellite is already very mature, but the high price prevents most TV stations from other countries or other types of TV stations besides American professional news channels from trying this technology. Today, TV stations broadcast foreign news mainly through cooperation.
Foreign TV stations request image materials, or they use resident reporters to shoot the materials and then transmit them back through communication satellites.
Japan's satellite TV channels are divided into two types: BS TV and CS TV. CS TV was born earlier and uses communication satellites to transmit TV signals. However, due to design limitations of communication satellites, one communication satellite can accommodate up to eight TVs.
channel, which resulted in the extremely high cost of CS TV. Except for Sky TV and other professional news channels owned by News Corporation, which wanted to land in Japan at that time, the other TV stations basically declined because of the price.
But later, in order to ensure the rights of viewers in outlying islands and remote mountainous areas to receive television signals, Japan sent the TV signals of NHK and the five major private broadcasters to communication satellites through government subsidies. Fortunately, Japan's own aerospace technology is not bad, NHK and the five major
The total number of civil broadcasting channels is seven satellite channels, and one communication satellite can solve the problem, so the government can still afford this subsidy.
Only after the development of mature broadcast satellite technology, a broadcast satellite can carry hundreds of TV channels, and the picture quality can be improved to more than 2K, did real private satellite channels appear in Japan.
However, the news that Lin Junxiu's "Midnight Flight" won three awards at the Venice Film Festival is still quite important. NHK directly asked reporters to interview Lin Junxiu immediately through communication satellite broadcast, which was considered a big news.
Following NHK are Asahi, TBS, Fuji, and Japan's four overseas cooperative channels, China Broadcasting Corporation. Although they were already lagging behind NHK when they got the news footage, they still got a bowl of soup.
The worst thing is Channel Tokyo. They are already very weak in domestic news. In terms of overseas news...does our Tokyo Channel arrange overseas correspondents? So Tokyo Channel’s news department pretended that nothing happened and compiled
The committee continues to shamelessly continue to schedule shopping programs for broadcast.
"Gaumont Company finally reached an agreement with us." A representative of Toho said excitedly, "The European rights were sold for US$2 million; the North American rights were sold for US$3.5 million. The copyright includes theater and TV channel revenue, but
Copyrights for home entertainment products such as DVDs are not included.”
The people at Toho rubbed their hands happily. Judging from the average buyout price of Asian movies in recent years, Gaumont's bid is considered a good deal. However, this buyout agreement retains the copyright of the most important home entertainment product.
Next, you must know that the DVD or BD market for literary and artistic films is a famously long-tail market. It is very common for a disc of an award-winning literary and artistic film to be sold in the market for decades. Maybe when Lin Junxiu takes over
Come on, the discs of "Midnight Flight" are still being sold. Therefore, Toho is very satisfied with being able to retain this part of the profit.
Lin Junxiu didn't have much objection to the final buyout agreement with Gaumont. Miramax was removed from the list anyway, so the only two companies he could choose were Gaumont and EMI.
The advantage of EMI is that it has its own theater chains in continental Europe and the United Kingdom. It is very rare to have theater chains in the United Kingdom in particular. The United Kingdom is very strict about the protection of local culture. It is not only highly vigilant about American culture,
Even the cultures of France, Germany and other European countries are very wary. Therefore, it is almost impossible for non-British companies or individuals to own theaters and cultural platforms such as theaters in the UK, but EMI has overcome this problem.
rule.
However, compared with EMI, in addition to having theaters all over Europe, Gaumont also has long-term cooperation agreements with mainstream art film theaters in North America such as Art House. Therefore, the artistic films distributed by Gaumont often do well at the box office in North America.
At this time, North America's box office ranked first in the world, and Junxiu Lin obviously would not give up North America for the UK. What's more, although Gaumont does not have an independent theater chain in the UK, it also has a cooperation agreement with the British theater company.
"Now that we have settled everything, we will take the earliest flight back to Tokyo tomorrow as planned," Lin Junxiu said.
Since flying from Venice to Tokyo is heading east, the earlier the flight, the easier it is to overcome jet lag. You can take a nap after getting on the plane in the morning, and when you wake up, it will still be morning in Tokyo, so you can start work full of energy.
Compared with when he first arrived, Lin Junxiu’s luggage has increased a lot. In addition to the Venetian specialty glass crafts that he wanted to give to some friends, he also bought some luxury goods such as Italian wine and truffles. Yes, France has a lot of them.
Specialties are actually available in Italy, but the quality and reputation of similar products in Italy are not as good as those in France. In addition to these, which must be packed carefully, there is also Lin Junxiu’s trophy.
You must know that Italian airports may have the lowest rating among airports in all European countries. Not only can you see thieves or thieves everywhere, but some robbers will directly rob the property of single overseas women who are alone. Even if you escape Italy's rich airports
thieves and robbers, and worry about their lazy airport staff taking your luggage from the flight to Tokyo to the flight to New York. Even if your luggage and you are on the right flight
However, you still have to worry about whether the airport ground staff will throw your luggage around and cause damage to the items. In short, flying in Italy requires a "European" physique, otherwise your luggage may say Goodbye to you.
.
After passing through customs at the airport, Lin Junxiu, his party and their luggage boarded the ANA flight safely and unharmed. At this time, the wealthy Singapore Airlines and Emirates had not yet emerged, so ANA and JAL were still among the best in Asia in terms of software and hardware. However, ANA is a Japanese airline.
is an airline, so of course the flight attendants recognized Lin Junxiu. Fortunately, these flight attendants have received professional training. Apart from the initial surprise when they saw Lin Junxiu, they soon showed their professional attitude.
"Give me a bottle of water, and then help me take off the blanket and eye mask." Lin Junxiu said from his seat. Although ANA's first class cabin is relatively spacious, it is almost suite-like like the later Emirates Airline and Singapore Airlines first class cabins.
There's still no comparison. "I don't need food, so don't wake me up halfway. If the flight is still an hour away from Tokyo, please wake me up."
"I understand." The stewardess nodded, "I will bring you what you want in a minute."
Lin Junxiu's seat was in the corner of the first-class cabin, next to his agent Takaki Koishi. After the stewardess delivered the items requested by Lin Junxiu, the plane had begun to enter a smooth flight stage. Lin Junxiu changed into slippers and put them on
Then he put on a blanket and started to sleep. Seeing Lin Junxiu fall asleep quickly, Koishi Takaki couldn't help but sigh that it's great to be young. Not only is he full of energy, but he can sleep when he wants. It's not like himself, although he hasn't used it yet.
It’s not like sleeping pills, but doctors are already recommending me to take some melatonin products.
The long flight was torture for everyone, and Koishi Takaki also put on headphones and started watching movies. When flying from Venice to Tokyo, you can probably watch two to three movies. ANA’s film library has a complete range of film sources.
There are not only classic old movies, but also many new movies that have just been released from theaters.
When the plane was about to fly to Tokyo, Lin Junxiu was woken up by the flight attendant. Lin Junxiu was a little dazed in his sleep, and he woke up after drinking some warm water. He took the amenity bag provided by the flight attendant and entered the first-class bathroom to get ready.
Clean yourself up. Although the first-class lavatory is larger than that of economy class and business class, it is still not as exaggerated as that of later tycoon airlines. You must know that the first-class lavatories of Emirates Airline and Singapore Airlines can take a shower, and the most people allowed here are
Lin Junxiu's head start is almost enough.
After Lin Junxiu washed his face and brushed his teeth, he tidied his hair and left the bathroom. After returning to his seat, Lin Junxiu applied a hydrating mask on himself. The air conditioner on the plane is indeed a water-absorbing device, and then Lin Junxiu, a young man
The moisture on boys’ faces is almost sucked dry. Interestingly, the facial mask was invented by the Japanese. The facial masks used by Europeans and Americans are actually thick cream-like ointment products. The moisturizing effect of these products is as good as
The repairing effect is said to be stronger than that of Asian facial masks, but the heavy feeling when applied on the face is also something that ordinary Asian skin types cannot bear.
Takaki Koishi is not surprised by Lin Junxiu's facial mask behavior. Japanese boys have the highest proportion of skin care and makeup among Asian men, not to mention that Lin Junxiu himself is a person in the entertainment industry. Not to mention Lin Junxiu, even Koishi Takaki
After washing your face every day, apply Muji's highly moisturizing lotion.
When the ANA plane landed safely at Tokyo Narita Airport, Lin Junxiu became radiant and energetic again. However, when passing the customs, airport staff rushed over and told Lin Jinxiu that there were many reporters and a large number of people at the airport.
The existence of his fans is currently causing trouble to airport traffic and may cause safety incidents.
"If it is convenient for Mr. Lin, I suggest that Mr. Lin leave the airport quickly through the special passage." The airport staff said cautiously, "Then please ask Mr. Lin to leave a staff member with us to appease your fans."
"This is no problem." Lin Junxiu agreed immediately.
"Don't cause trouble for others" is the highest principle of Japanese conduct, so Lin Junxiu naturally agreed.
"I am deeply sorry for the trouble my fans have caused to the airport. I will arrange for you to go with me to persuade them, and in the future I will also remind them not to do such potentially dangerous things."
In Japan, it is common knowledge that idols must pay for fan behavior. If a fan performs poorly, the idol and the company behind it need to hold a press conference to apologize. Especially this kind of behavior that obstructs public transportation is already very common in Japanese society.
Big problem.
With the help of airport personnel, Lin Junxiu entered the underground parking garage through a special passage, then got into his nanny car and quickly left the airport. On the way back to the company, Lin Junxiu received a call from Koishi Takaki, saying it was from a fan.
His emotions have been calmed down, and he also apologized to the airport and the passengers that day on behalf of Lin Junxiu. However, the reporter hopes that Lin Junxiu can hold a press conference as soon as possible. After all, Lin Junxiu’s performance at the Venice Film Festival this time is very important to Japan.
The movie is a great inspiration, and it is also a big news to Japanese society, so reporters can't wait to interview Lin Junxiu.
"Just say that we will hold a press conference as soon as possible in the next two days, but the specific time depends on when we can find a suitable venue." Lin Junxiu ordered, "Try to use the venue of the Imperial Hotel as much as possible, after all, Tokyo is
It’s of the highest specification.”
