647. Being a Father and a Mother (3/5)
The full name of TV2 mentioned by Hill should be New Zealand National TV Station TV 2.
Just like the name, New Zealand National Television is the most powerful TV station in this country, with TV1, TV2, TV3 and C-4 and other TV stations.
Among them, tv1 is New Zealand's flagship station and the first large-scale TV station in New Zealand. It has appeared in the form of an independent TV station since 1960 and became nzbctv in 1969. After the disintegration of this TV station in 1975, it was renamed tv1, both a commercial TV station and a public TV station.
TV2, which had contact with Hill, was established in 1975 and aired in Auckland and Christchurch on June 30, 1975, and started broadcasting in Wellington in November, and then slowly covered the entire territory.
Just like the big brother TV1, TV2 is also a public and commercial TV station. Compared with TV1, TV2's program planning is more inclined to attract young audiences, mainly focusing on TV series, reality shows and other entertainment programs. Most of the programs are introduced from the United States.
tv3 was founded on November 26, 1989 and is a nationwide commercial TV station. Its programs are mainly entertainment, and most of its content is introduced by the United States and the United Kingdom.
The c-4 TV station is mainly based on entertainment programs and mv, and is now the largest music TV station in New Zealand.
Comparing with China, tv1 is similar to cctv-1, and c-4 has a status similar to cctv-music channel, while tv-2 is a combination of cctv-3 and cctv-6.
It is now undoubtedly possible that Hill's "Deadly Notes" can sell copyright. Since his novel was transferred to "New Zealand" for serialization, sales volume and influence have been increasing.
As Wang Bo initially guessed, "The Fatal Notes" quickly became popular with readers after entering the market. It took only ten days to seize the front page of the newspaper and has always dominated the front page.
As this novel became popular, many celebrities and well-known media began to pay attention to it. New Zealand's National Radio Channel recently reviewed local novels, and "Notes" was on the list and was called the last detective work.
With such attention and popularity, it is a foregone conclusion that "Notes" is adapted into a big movie or TV series. Now it depends on who has the more courage and wins the adaptation rights of this novel.
TV-2 is now the main TV series. In the past, they just bought copyright and then played it. Now the senior management has changed their minds, filmed TV and played it themselves, and invested themselves to make money.
To appease Hill, Wang Boxian used the police system to check the phone number to prevent him from being deceived. Now there are many scammers in New Zealand, and there are not enough fools.
The query information showed that the phone number belonged to a man named Trevor Hesim. Then he checked the name and found that he was indeed a producer and quite famous.
This producer has been working in film and television since 1984. He first filmed the documentary "Every Dancer's Dream". This work received attention as soon as it was released and won the Silver Award at the 20th Chicago International Film Festival.
In 2004, he joined the New Zealand National Television Station and was responsible for some TV2 programs. In the same year, he was awarded the Lifetime Honor Award by the New Zealand Film Production and Development Association for the significant impact of his film "Father's Cabin" and the TV animation series "Bran Town" on New Zealand's cultural cause.
All in all, maybe there are many New Zealand scammers, but calling Hill is not this one.
Wang Bo leaned against the chair and turned his pen. He pondered: "Did you negotiate the price on the phone?"
"Not yet. You know I'm smart. I don't know much about the market. So I used a slow-down strategy to ask you to negotiate prices for me. I heard that the mayor, your ability to negotiate prices is the world's first-class."
Looking at Hill's complacent look, Lao Wang really didn't want to hit him. Does this guy have a brain? It's not right to be so suspicious. After all, a brainless person cannot write a brain-burning "Deadly Notes".
However, Lao Wang has nothing to do with the cultural circle and the film and television circle, and his understanding of copyright is not as good as Hildo. How can he negotiate the price for him?!
But he had other ways, and it was time to show his connections. After thinking about it, he called the domineering president and asked him if he could ask someone to consult the copyright price of a novel.
Bathil knew as soon as he heard that he wanted to ask about the IP value of "The Fatal Notes", so he gave him a call and said that it was John Barnett's. He had already said hello and could ask with confidence.
After hanging up the phone, Wang Bo didn't know what the name meant, so he asked Hill: "John Barnett, do you know this?"
Hearing this name, Hill's eyes suddenly widened, and he took a breath: "God, don't you know this name?"
Lao Wang shrugged: "I don't pay attention to your New Zealand film and television industry at all."
Hill shouted: "Even if you don't pay attention, you should have heard of his name. He is almost the most famous producer in New Zealand!"
"Isn't New Zealand's most famous producer Peter Jackson? Isn't it the "Lord of the Rings" series?" Lao Wang looked at him suspiciously.
The fat writer blinked and continued to shout: "No, Peter is the most famous producer in the world in New Zealand, and John Barnett is the most famous producer in New Zealand! If, I mean, if the phone call is his, then I will be arrogant!"
"I'm sorry, it wasn't his phone call."
Wang Bo searched the Internet for John Barnett's name and found that this person is indeed very famous, with many related search entries and news.
This producer is old. He is one of the most prolific TV producers in New Zealand. He also produces films and entertainment programs, and has a lot of fun cross-border games.
When Wang Bo attended the Four Towns Conference, Hani recommended him to watch a long soap opera called "Shortland Street". This TV series was produced by John and was also a work by his South Pacific Film Company.
After confirming John Barnett's identity, he called the phone and the phone was quickly answered. Someone asked: "This is Mr. Barnett's private phone. What's wrong with you?"
Wang Bo coughed and said formally: "I am Mr. Goodbattier's friend, uh, President Battier, do you know? He asked me to contact Mr. Barnett because I have a script to talk to him."
"Of course, please wait."
Obviously, Bathir's name works very well in New Zealand, and the other party's voice immediately softened ten times as soon as he heard it.
