Chapter 429 NBC

Tomorrow is October 20th, and it is also the time for Pokemon animation to be played in the United States.

Although Boss Jia really wants to be screened all over the world at the same time, the problem is that each TV station has its own time point. Before the previous animation is broadcast, it is obviously inappropriate to change another animation, so Boss Jia can only try to unify the broadcast time of the whole world in October.

Among them, China's broadcast time will be earlier and will be broadcast on CCTV on October 12th.

Then there is Fusang, and the Pokemon animation will be broadcast on October 18th.

The United States is ranked third, and it will be broadcast nationwide on October 20.

This time, Boss Jia reached a cooperation with the United States' NBC TV station.

Note that it is nbc instead of nba.

The full name of nbc is the National Broadcasting Corporation of America and is also one of the three major commercial broadcasting and television companies.

The company is headquartered in New York, and its parent company is known as General Electric.

The company now has direct TV stations in seven cities, including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington, Cleveland, Denver and Miami, and has 208 affiliated TV stations nationwide, basically reaching the level of coverage across the country.

It is worth mentioning that the US TV station policy is the same as the Fuso TV station policy. They are all private TV stations, and they are both local and there is no TV station that can cover the whole country.

So like Fusang, in addition to setting up a direct TV station in major cities in the United States, they will also acquire many local TV stations in the United States as vassals.

If local TV stations pay a portion of the fee to NBC every year, they can obtain the right to play all NBC TV programs for free, but they must also play advertisements in NBC programs.

These local TV stations can make profits through local TV fees, and there are also some self-operated advertising businesses.

In short, the US TV stations are like one large alliance after another. The three major US TV stations each have more than 200 affiliated local TV stations. The two sides are like the three countries, competing for each other's ratings.

As the third brother in the Three Kingdoms, NBC has been a little sad recently because NBC's position as the third in the United States is almost unable to be saved.

The one who launched an offensive against NBC was News Corp. The fourth-ranked News Corp. The boss behind the scenes was Australian character Murdoch, the old man who married an ugly Chinese wife.

Fox has been in a strong momentum recently, and its national viewership and number of affiliated TV stations are almost at the NBC level.

And the reason why Fox has such a rapid momentum is that it has two powerful tools in total.

One is Fox's entertainment program. There are not many entertainment programs in the United States, and the most famous program is talk shows.

However, Fox's boss is a variety show expert, and has created many entertainment programs one after another. The most famous one is a US version called Morrie Cuckold Show, If You Are the One, the American Talent Show, etc. These innovative variety shows refresh the American people who can only see talk shows every day.

Another is animation.

It also made the president of NBC very helpless. A Fox animation actually beat them up without any fighting back. Whenever it entered the broadcast time of this animation, countless people would adjust the station on time and transfer to Fox TV to watch the animation.

The ratings of this animation can hit a new high every year. For example, in 1992 last year, the highest record was set by 30.92 million people watching simultaneously.

By the way, the United States does not have popular ratings. They count the highest number of viewers at the same time. Any program that can have tens of millions of people watching at the same time can become a legend of a generation.

The record of 30.92 million people watching at the same time is even more a legend, and it can basically stand in the top 20 American history.

In fact, the peak viewership of this animation is 45.41 million, which is a rating record that can definitely rank among the top five.

This animation is the American national animation "The Simpsons' Family". This magical animation that has been played for 35 consecutive seasons and has beaten all TV stations and opponents since 1989.

Of course, this animation is not popular in China, because it is all animations that are complained about by the traditional American culture and politics. For Chinese people, there is no empathy at all.

NBC's TV series are a good idea, and have produced familiar American dramas such as "Friends" (the American version of "Love Apartment". If "Love Apartment" could be broadcast in 1993," and "The Story of the Emergency Room" and other well-known American dramas, they are produced by NBC.

But in animation, nbc is absolutely not good. Nbc originally didn't care about it. If the animation doesn't work, animation won't work. The magical existence of "The Simpsons' Family" is not something that any animation can resist. At the most, nbc can only have more than 8 million viewers.

So NBC originally chose to give up competition wisely and just pretended that its TV station would not broadcast animations.

But now with Fox pressing step by step, he was about to take away his third place throne, and NBC was also a little anxious. They decided to steal some popularity in the animation, and at least they had to suppress "The Simpsons' Family".

But this is so difficult. NBC has tried three animations in succession, and all the ratings are below 2 million, which is less than a fraction of "The Simpsons", which makes NBC's program director intend to give up the stupid idea of ​​challenging "The Simpsons" in animation.

However, about a dozen days ago, the NBC program director suddenly received a report from his manager, saying that he discovered a super powerful animation. Even if he couldn't compete with "The Simpsons' Family", it would be a big problem to get a rating of about 5 million.

The program director became interested and asked, which country is this? Which company produces an animation?

Then his manager reported that this was an animation produced by Huaxia Dynasty animation.

In response, the program director almost choked to death by a sip of salt soda.

What the hell is this? When did the Chinese animation come to the United States to play?

I heard that China is still in a miserable country where three people wear pairs of pants together and rely on people to pull plows and plow fields? Such a country actually has the reputation to produce animations to the United States???

The program director scoffed and wanted to refuse on the spot, even advising him to take a look.

But the manager under him was very loyal and dedicated. He repeatedly reported to the director, and finally even swears to God that this is definitely an animation that can have 5 million views.

Well, for God's sake, the program director finally agreed to the manager and just watch an animation to see how it looks.

"I only have 20 minutes to watch one episode. My wife prepared apple pie for me at home. If I don't go back, I will die!" Before watching this episode of animation, the program director said to God.

Then I heard that the wife of the program director sent Apple to the company because the director had not been home for a whole night and even lied that he worked overtime all night in the company.
