Chapter 165 It's not important to rack your brains
The Constitution Square in Mexico is the central square of the entire Mexico City. If Mexico City is the political and economic center of the country, then the Constitution Square is the center of the center. Not only the National Palace, which symbolizes the highest power, is also the largest Catholic church in the entire Latin American region.
Most people can only see the National Palace here, but in fact, the Archdiocese is located at the center of the entire Mexico City. However, it is no wonder that the Mexican government is a puppet placed outside to show off, and the church that controls wealth is the real emperor here.
On the morning of August 24, the monks of the Archdiocese opened the gate to the west side of the church, and then one high-end cars after another drove in.
The old monks in the church were not surprised by this situation. After all, this is the nominal palace of Brando Mausoleum. Once the domestic economic situation is not good, or if the underground emperor has any intention to read it, he will find all the major merchants. For example, on the afternoon of the day when the peso plummeted, the president of Mexico, other senior officials, and the most well-known merchants in China came to the Archdiocese.
"Hey! Today, these people seem to be from the same field, right? Because I seem to be familiar with these people."
An old monk looked at the people who got out of the car and went to the side hall and frowned and said with uncertainty. However, next to him, another monk said: "No need to seem, I can tell you with certainty now that these are tycoons in the media field. During the financial crisis, these people were asked by Lord Damu to have a meeting."
He then pointed it out one by one: "Look at the tallest one at the forefront is Casa Lan, the chairman of Mexican Media. He is a giant in the media industry. It owns companies such as Mexico National Television and The Mexican newspaper. Its communication channels completely cover the entire country. It can be said that no matter where you turn on the TV in China, there will definitely be him in the channels you can receive."
"And there is Aquino behind him, who is the chairman of Maya TV, which is also a very famous TV station, second only to the state TV station; and that Ektor, although his TV station is in Utanca, the channels in Mexico City are also very wide..."
Listening to his introductions, the monks next to him couldn't help but breathe: "My God, then is it because the church is going to do anything in the media when they gather here like this? This is terrible. The energy they join forces can control the TV channels and newspapers across the country!"
Amid the cries of the monks, the media tycoons walked into the side hall of the Archdiocese one by one, but Brando, the owner of the Archdiocese, was not there. There was only one young man here, Jefferson.
This made these media tycoons subconsciously frown, but in the end they didn't say anything. After all, Jefferson, as Brando's illegitimate son, could make a decision on behalf of Brando, otherwise he would not be in the Archdiocese.
Thinking of this, they all sat down, and Jefferson felt relieved. Today, Jefferson deliberately borrowed the Archdiocese from Brando, with the purpose of creating Brando's psychological pressure for these media tycoons. Otherwise, it would be better to just be the order of a illegitimate son, Jefferson.
Jefferson stood up and looked around everyone and said to them, "First I am very grateful to everyone for taking the time to come to the Archdiocese."
Jefferson said, bowing slightly to everyone, and he then said, "I think you must have seen all the new commercials about Director Guzman last night."
Everyone nodded. After all, the advertising format was very novel and different from any other advertisement, which left a deep impression on them. Therefore, as soon as Jefferson said it, they immediately remembered it.
"Since you have seen it, it's easy to say. The purpose of my search for you all today is to hope that you can remove this advertisement from me immediately, right away!" Jefferson said.
Although they were ready to arrive here today, Jefferson's words still surprised them now.
Aquino from Maya TV expressed his dissatisfaction at the time: "Mr. Jefferson, how can this be done? We all signed contracts with the State Telecommunications Company. If we breach the contract, do you know how much liquidated damages we will compensate?"
Aquino said this and immediately received the approval of others: "Yes, although you are Mr. Jefferson, you cannot make such an unreasonable request. We will not agree. Such a loss is too great, and our TV station may even go bankrupt because of this!"
Faced with the noise from these people, Jefferson waved his hand impatiently and said, "But this is your own problem!"
A sentence surprised everyone, Jefferson continued, "Don't forget, I have warned you before that, don't answer any of you for the advertisements of the State Telecom Company, but what about you? Are you pretending not to hear me? So you are asking for this situation now!"
These media tycoons were embarrassed again, and this time it was Aquino who said first: "That's not what he said. Mr. Jefferson, you did tell us, but we didn't accept it, or you can't force us so much when you think about it. Even if we finally accept it, our advertising contract with the State Telecom Company was set before, and it was before your warning. How could it be our problem?"
Aquino reminded the others, and the people followed, "That's right, these advertisements are all scheduled before, and they will definitely not let them go to the advertisements afterwards..."
Jefferson slapped the table hard: "Shut up! Do you guys, do you all think I don't know? You are obviously greedy, and you are obviously reluctant to let go of the sky-high advertising fees offered by the State Telecom Company. You must pay the price for your greed!"
Seeing that Jefferson and the others were a little hysterical, Casa Lan, who had not spoken, suddenly said, "Everyone should calm down first."
As the largest media tycoon, Casaran's words are still very powerful. When he spoke, the side hall became quiet. Then he continued: "The quarrels here are meaningless. I can admit that the advertisements of the State Telecom Company were indeed for the sky-high advertising fees they offered. There is nothing wrong with this. Which company is not for money? We have no reason to push the money out."
"I also know Jefferson, you have a conflict with that Chinese, but that is a conflict between you. No matter how we support you, it will make no sense to lose a lot of advertising fees."
Seeing that Jefferson was about to win, Casa Lan continued, "But don't worry. Since we are all here today, we will definitely discuss a result, so Jefferson, do you think this is OK? We don't want you to compensate us for the advertising fees we will lose. We only let the advertisements of the State Telecom Company be broadcast on our channel for a week."
Kasaran's words were approved by others, after all, this was a compromise. These media tycoons were unwilling to suffer losses but did not want to offend the church.
However, at this time, Jefferson said, "This is absolutely not possible!"
This made Casa Lan frown and was very dissatisfied with Jefferson: "I think my approach is the biggest concession we can make. If you are aggressive, we will never agree. I am afraid that even Master Brando Damu will not do this, right? You are still young, and I hope you can understand what you are doing."
Jefferson raised his head and said, "Please rest assured about this. Of course I understand what I am doing. In fact, this is what Lord Damu means, otherwise why do you think you are here today?"
When saying this, Jefferson was actually very unsure. After all, these are media tycoons in front of him, and they are all powerful families that have been branched out in the church. Even Brando really wants to give them some face. Otherwise, if he did not have the support of most families, he would not be a real master.
In normal times, Jefferson would never dare to talk to these people like this, but today, in order to stop Zhou Ming from doing the best, he must do this.
"So you want us to drop the advertisements from the National Telecommunications Building immediately, and there is no room for maneuver?" Kasa Lan asked.
Jefferson shook his head seriously: "I'm sorry, this is not a bargain, but please rest assured that one thing. I can guarantee you here that if the Chinese sues you in anger, he will definitely not win the lawsuit! If you are worried about the credibility impact, you can refund the overcharged advertising fees at most."
Casa Lan thought carefully for a while and he first stated: "Since Mr. Jefferson has already said this, I don't think I can refuse again."
With Casa Lan's statement, other media tycoons also expressed their opinions, saying that they would also help Jefferson this time.
Listening to their words, Jefferson was truly relieved and bowed to everyone, "Thank you very much!"
Since the negotiations on the advertising matter were made, these media tycoons naturally had no reason to stay. When they sent off these media tycoons, Jefferson shouted excitedly because he was also gambled today and he could not be sure whether he could convince these media tycoons, but his luck was obviously very good, and they all agreed.
"As long as these media tycoons return to their respective TV stations, all the advertisements will be taken down. Zhou Ming, just wait and cry! Haha!" Jefferson was so excited when he thought of Zhou Ming's possible frown.
Since the Archdiocese is Brando's place, Jefferson left the place after the negotiations, but when he arrived on the road in a car, he immediately widened his eyes because he saw a huge billboard erected opposite the square. The advertisement on it was removed and has now been replaced by National Telecom Zero Yuan Purchase.
"Damn it, damn it! Why? I've convinced those difficult guys here that you even have outdoor advertisements ready. You must have heard about me, right? You despicable guy, I won't let you have a good time!"
