Chapter 752 Mr.Biggest
Chapter 752
After sleeping enough, he woke up naturally, he was very comfortable in the big bed, and his hands touched the wall at the head of the bed. Only then did Candice Bushnell realize that this was not the bedroom he was familiar with. ≧ 1 novel ≧ ﹤＜≦≦＜≤﹤＜≦≦≤≤≦≦
The door was pushed open at this time, and she quickly retracted the bed, but was still noticed by the man who entered the door.
"Morning," Eric greeted the woman on the big bed with a smile, put the women's evening dress in his hand at the end of the bed, and turned to draw the curtains.
Candace Bushnell followed Eric's figure to the window, watching him open the curtains, shining bright eyes into the bedroom, and finally wake up completely.
God, it turns out that all this was not a dream, I actually went to bed with this little man in front of me, God!
Thinking that she had slept with this man thirteen years younger than her, Candace Bushnell felt a heat on her face, a little embarrassed, a little shy, and a little excited.
Seeing Eric come over and sit down on the chair beside the big bed, Candace Bushnell pulled the quilt over his face a little embarrassedly, thought about it and felt a little inappropriate, and greeted bluntly: " Morning... mr.Big."
Eric looked at Candace Bushnell's little girl-like reaction, nodded, and teased: "Oh, I understand, this should be considered a compliment."
Candace Bushnell was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
Seeing that Candace Bushnell didn't speak or force, Eric said, "Candice, I've had your dress washed and ironed last night, um... That's it, I'm at nine o'clock. There is a meeting."
Candace Bushnell poked his head from under the quilt and asked, "What time is it?"
Eric looked at his watch and said, "At 8:30, the car is already waiting for me below."
"Ah, it's so late, then I..."
Candace Bushnell was about to sit up, Eric reached out and pressed her shoulder, and said, "No, you can sleep for a while, you can get up whenever you want, I'm just saying goodbye to you."
Last night, he struggled until after two o'clock in the morning before resting. Although he had woken up, Candace Bushnell only felt powerless, but he didn't want to get up at this time. Turning his body sideways, he was a little curious about Eric, and tentatively asked: "Is it a very important meeting?"
"If you follow recent media news,
You should know that espn is about to sign a new contract with the National Football League," Eric explained, then smiled, and said: "I almost forgot, women should be less interested in sports than men are in fashion, right? ? "
Candace Bushnell shook his head. "Of course not. I was a cheerleader for the school football team when I was a kid."
Eric knew she was being polite, smiled, took out a card from his suit pocket, put it on the bedside table, and said, "I made some breakfast, you can eat some after you get up, if you don't like it, there is still in the refrigerator. Others, the card is the driver's number, you can call this number when you need a car later."
Candice Bushnell was a little disappointed when Eric didn't give her his personal business card, but she didn't ask for it. Both parties knew that this was just an ordinary one-night stand, and she wouldn't be stupid enough to go further. 's luxury.
Seeing the woman nodding, Eric continued: "Also, I discussed with Annie on the phone in the morning about the heroine of "Wanted City". Since Liz is not suitable, let's look for another candidate. But hurry up and don't delay it for too long."
Candace Bushnell knew that since Eric originally appointed Elizabeth Hurley as the heroine, the relationship between the two must be unusual. Hearing his words, he asked, "What about Miss Hurley?"
"You don't have to worry about this, I will arrange it," Eric said, got up and said, "Then, goodbye."
"Goodbye," Candace Bushnell reached out from under the quilt and waved at Eric.
When the door closed, Candace Bushnell turned around and lay on his back on the big bed, staring at the ceiling for a while, feeling that he could no longer fall asleep and had to get up.
After groping to find Nei Yi and putting it on, she walked into the Yushi barefooted, and saw the brand new toothbrush in the cup with a sticky note on the washstand, and her somewhat empty mood suddenly improved a lot. He tore off the note and looked at it. It turned out that his words were like this. Thinking to himself, he subconsciously put the note under his nose and sniffed it, and then he secretly laughed at his nympho-like behavior. Putting down the sticky note and noticing the large bathtub in the bathroom, he suddenly became interested again.
She took a comfortable hot bath, wrapped her bathrobe and went downstairs. There was a few simple breakfasts on the coffee table in the living room. As usual, it was a very considerate note, with her bag and mobile phone beside her. In the past, she turned on the mobile phone that was turned off last night, looked around, and saw a round table by the floor-to-ceiling window that was full of eyes not far away, she picked up her breakfast and walked over.
There is also a stack of newspapers on the table. It is estimated that he should read the newspapers while eating here in the morning.
Thinking of the cooperation between espn and the National Football League that Eric casually mentioned when he left, Candace Bushnell, although he really has no interest in sports, still curiously flipped through a few newspapers today while eating breakfast.
The "New York Times" really used a lot of space to report the cooperation negotiations between ESPN and the National Football League (nFL).
In the past, ESPN's broadcasting rights contracts for nFL games were negotiated on an annual or seasonal basis, but this time, ESPN is ambitious to sign an eight-year contract with the nFL at one time, and it is a completely exclusive contract. Once the deal is reached, ESPN will receive exclusive broadcast rights to the nFL's weekly league.
Candice Bushnell didn't know much about the various professional analyses in the newspaper articles, but she was stunned when she saw that the total contract amount would reach $900 million, which was already out of her scope. In the field of imagination, the eight-year contract is 900 million US dollars. Is the broadcast rights of nFL games really worth so much money? ESPN is a TV station under Firefly. He will not lose money because of it, right?
While thinking wildly, the phone rang suddenly, and just after she picked it up, there was a squeaky female voice coming from the microphone.
"..."
Listening to the bombardment of a series of questions from her best friend, with no intention of stopping, Candace Bushnell had to take the initiative to interrupt the other party: "Okay, Sonia, I admit that I slept with him, you don't want to stop. Long-winded."
There was another exclamation on the opposite side, Candace Bushnell reluctantly moved the receiver away from his ear, and when the other party finished speaking, he said, "Please, Sonia, I hope to find my mr.Big, but But this is Mr. Biggest, a petite and frail little woman like me will pounce on it and she will be crushed into powder, this is just a one-night stand."
"..."
"I don't know why, anyway, it was brought back by him in a daze, and, you said that, I also remembered, those women with bright eyes at the party last night must have hated me, um, It seems that I have to be careful these days to avoid being calculated."
"..."
"Oh, now," Candace Bushnell heard another question from her best friend. She glanced out the glass window, and her vision fell on Central Park, which was shrouded in sunlight. In late autumn, Central Park did not have the vibrant green of summer. But the red maple and yellow leaves add radiance and radiance to each other, still giving people a colorful and dreamy feeling: "I am now sitting in the penthouse at the entrance of Sixth Avenue, eating breakfast made by mr. Biggest himself, and enjoying the whole central The view of the park and uptown, I have to say that the view here is amazing, I want to stay here and stay here, even if I live here as a maid."
"..."
"He, he's already gone to work, how can people be as leisurely as us little women... What, don't even think about it, let you in, who knows what kind of trouble you are going to make, no — yes, absolutely — yes — no — yes.”
"..."
The other side didn't know what to say, Candace Bushnell spat with a blushing face, but the voice in the microphone was chasing after him.
"Ah, you shameless woman," Candice Bushnell shouted unbearably with a ruddy face and a smile on the corner of his mouth. After a while, he gestured with his fingers unconsciously, and replied, "He's probably, a little strong, you know, the kind on the bed, and then, um, it's very comfortable, he can definitely send you to the sky, float for a night, but then It doesn't prevent you from getting out of bed the next day and walking back by yourself... Ah bah, you bastard, you actually said that I was dang dang, obviously you asked such an obscene question first, oh, I understand, you are jealous, yes, Jealousy, hum."
...
Eric's residence is less than two kilometers away from the aBc headquarters on Sixth Street, Upper West City. When Candace Bushnell and his girlfriend were talking about him privately, Eric had already arrived; ESPN TV is even a very important issue for Firefly's TV business, about epsn's $900 million contract with the National Football League.
Among the hundreds of cable TV stations that have appeared in the United States, espn is undoubtedly the most dazzling one. Since the late 1980s, with a large number of event broadcast contracts in hand, espn has become the leader of all sports fans in North America. TV. What's more, espn is still the highest broadcasting cost among all TV stations in North America, and it is the only basic cable TV station with an average subscriber split of more than one dollar. Even if it is the same popular net owned by Turner Broadcasting Corporation, the average subscription cost of users is only 68 cents, and the average subscription fee for all cable TV stations in North America is only 2o cents, which shows how powerful espn is.
In my memory, the market value of Disney, which annexed aBc, was only about 2000 million dollars at the highest, but the market value of one ESPN TV station reached 500 million. After the decline of the public television network, the profits and revenue of ESPN occupied Disney TV even more. more than half of the total business revenue.
Although he didn't pay much attention to sports in his previous life, Eric also remembered that after the new century, when various sports TV stations were vying to catch up, the main reason why epsn was able to maintain its strong position in the industry was that it held the A large number of monopolistic sports broadcast rights.
As the most popular sports in the United States, the rights to broadcast the football league of the nFL must also be within the grasp of espn.
Eric did not know the development trajectory of epsn before. It was not until a few days ago that the president of espn came up with an ambitious plan to monopolize the broadcasting rights of the nFL league, and he did not understand how espn has risen strongly.
The current number of espn subscribers is about 9000,000, the average subscription fee is 1.3 US dollars, and the total annual broadcast rights share and advertising revenue is about 200 million US dollars. Therefore, when this plan involving 900 million US dollars was just taken out, it really Robert Iger, who had just dismantled Tom Murphy in charge of the TV business, was taken aback. Robert Iger was very moved by the prospect described by Steve Bernstein, but felt that the possibility of this plan being implemented was very slim, although he did not hold it. Expected too much, but submitted the plan to Katzenberg.
Katzenberg's eyes are also very sharp. Of course, he also sees the huge potential hidden in the plan, but he also sees the greater risks in the plan. Once he wins the contract with 900 million US dollars, he plans to If it fails, the consequences will be unimaginable, and this plan has another disadvantage. Because it wants to monopolize all the broadcasters of the event, the price of 900 million US dollars has already exceeded 50% of the original broadcast rights price. If the nFL league price increases, then other leagues will definitely ask for higher prices. Once ESPN's revenue growth does not meet expectations, not to mention the gradually increasing copyright licensing prices of other prices, just pay nFL's annual copyright fee of 1.125 billion US dollars. Enough to drag down espn slowly.
In the end, Katzenberg was unable to make a decision and had to submit the plan to Eric himself.
