Chapter 105 Media Group

In fact, it was not just Wendy who didn't understand. The police chiefs and Willy Brown who received the money were also puzzled.

Robert Lester, the San Francisco boss, even whispered to Willie L. Williams, the Los Angeles boss.

They even suspected that Milos spent so much money in order to assassinate the US President in California.

But I haven't heard that Zipperton is going to visit California in the near future.

They were all a little worried when they took the money.

Fortunately, green US dollars are really sweet.

Although I was worried, I still took it.

They are worried that if they don't take it, their subordinates might mistakenly report it to them when they go to work the next day.

This is actually the bad nature of capitalism under Western values.

In Western values, especially American values.

When a businessman spends one dollar on an official, it often means that the official can bring the businessman more than ten dollars in profit.

In other words, you can't make ten dollars for every dollar you make.

Few American businessmen are willing to spend money on officials.

According to this point of view.

Milo donated tens of millions, and everyone thought he might want to make hundreds of millions.

But in a way, the American police department is actually a clean water department.

Apart from wasting funds and hiring people recklessly, there is nothing special about them that can make businessmen make money.

Not to mention the guns and equipment, they are worth so little.

Milo's more than 40 million...can almost buy them a full set of equipment.

If you want to make money from this, it will take forever.

Where the U.S. government really makes money is in the legislatures and competent departments at all levels.

That's why there has always been donations and political contributions.

Police departments and their leaders across the United States have always had a relatively poor life compared to other departments.

The risk is still very high, and you may be arrested on the road at any time.

So much so that they have developed the good habit of striking first.

This can be seen from the fact that you can get an 11-99 license plate frame for just $1,800.

For $1,800, you can be treated as one of the California police's own.

But you want legislators at all levels and government departments to treat you as one of their own.

If you don't donate $180,000 or $1.8 million, no one will even look at you.

It’s not like the wealthy don’t donate to the police department.

Rather, the purpose of their donations is too clear.

Like Milo, donating so much money at one time.

There is no clear purpose yet, which makes them a little nervous.

Especially the two departments in San Francisco and Los Angeles that received the most money.

The police stations in these two places were even more alert.

They quietly set up a special patrol department within it.

This department does not exist in documents or reports.

They exist only as agreements within the police department.

The purpose of this department is to protect their biggest financial backer.

In order to mobilize the enthusiasm of subordinates.

Robert Lester and Willie L. Williams, and also increased benefits for the police officers who joined the department.

For example, the California police officers who work in this department.

They can get additional subsidies from the foundation.

In short, after Milo's donation, some subsequent changes have taken place in police departments across California.

Milo, after leaving the Los Angeles Police Department.

After more than a month's absence, he returned to the film company in Hollywood.

According to his request, the film company was named half a month ago.

Its current name is Paladin Media Group.

It is called a media group, but it currently only has one film company under its umbrella.

The office space has expanded.

Originally there were only two floors of offices.

But now, this thirteen-story office building has been fully rented by Paladin Media.

The fifth floor is used as office space for the film company.

The top floor serves as Milo's personal office.

The remaining seven floors are temporarily vacant.

This office building is in a great location, directly opposite the famous Hollywood sign.

At this time, in Milo's office on the top floor.

In the afternoon, Milo was meeting with his advisory team.

The current chief consultant of the advisory team is Saboteur West.

This person has extensive experience working in investment banking and commercial banking, and has also worked as a lobbyist on K Street in Washington.

Shabtai has a wide network of contacts and is very good at dealing with all kinds of people.

Milo asked a headhunting company to help recruit him, which took a lot of effort and cost a lot of money.

In addition to Shabtai West, there are currently four other people on the advisory board.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

However, Karen Hughes, the image consultant and public relations consultant, only spends half of her time with Milo.

The rest of the time, Ms. Hughes works for the governor of Texas.

Fortunately, what Milo discussed in the meeting today had nothing to do with personal image and public relations.

It doesn't matter if Ms. Hughes doesn't come.

"…the influence of a media company that owns a large television network is much greater than that of a media company that only has print media. Modern people can stop reading newspapers and listening to the radio, but they will never stop watching television."

"Compared to newspapers and radio, television has a multifaceted influence. Sound, text, and dynamic images make it easier for people to accept the information being disseminated."

Chris Carey, a media expert on the advisory panel who once served as a senior executive at Columbia Pictures and NBC Television Broadcasting Group, spoke eloquently.

The reason why the advisory group met with Milo today.

Because a few days ago, Milo assigned them a task -

Planning to establish the businesses and departments that a media group should have.

Whether it is a TV network or print media, try to acquire them and then integrate them.

"The problem now is that among the major TV networks, ABC and CBS have just changed hands, and Disney and Viacom are unlikely to sell them. NBC has been operating well and has no intention of selling. As for Fox... News Corporation is even less likely to sell it."

Shabtai West concluded, "So based on the current situation, as for TV networks, we can either choose to acquire those small TV networks, or choose to cooperate with large TV networks and purchase one or several channels under them."

"This is really hard to accept." Milo sighed and pinched his fingers unwillingly.

In fact, if he had been reborn a few years earlier, he might have been able to take over CBS and ABC.

But now, first of all, CBS is out of the question.

Behind it are all the Oilers, and it is the first television network group controlled by the Oilers in the United States.

It is estimated that even Rockefeller and Morgan cannot take CBS from the Oilers now.

As for ABC, it is also not easy to deal with. Disney takes it very seriously.

Just think about it, after being acquired, ABC suffered losses for ten consecutive years.

This can be seen from the fact that Disney has not thought about selling it and is still using its huge funds to fill the gap.

How important is this television network to them as a broadcaster across the United States.

Of course, he can also choose to buy a channel on another TV network and then gradually expand it across the United States.

This is not difficult, as he has memorized many high-rated TV dramas and variety shows.

You can also use the state of divine inspiration, where your creativity is almost inexhaustible.

And he only needs to have a rough idea.

If a boss has prepared all the details, then what is the need for an operations team?

And long before this, he had asked Wendy to prepare a department to produce TV series.

In addition, you can also focus on the Internet.

The Internet will kill records, and the paper publishing industry will be in decline for a few years. Online TV will be popularized on mobile phones in ten years.

If you seize all the opportunities you get, you may become a giant in the emerging media industry.

However, both of these methods will be subject to the control of others for a long time.

Especially the former.

Although the latter has a broader future, it takes too long.

Damn the TV network.

Milo let out a long breath, came back to his senses from his wild thoughts, and looked at the advisory group in front of him:

"You've given me some bad news. But I guess you'll always give me some good news."

"Isn't it? That's exactly why I hired you."
