Chapter 1220: Multiplying with Distorted Brain Holes and Confidence
“By the way, darling, I have something to discuss with you. ”
Driving in a Maybach on Manhattan Avenue, Andy said to Ivana, who was spreading the newspaper next to her.
“Mm-hmm." Ivana whispered, turning over the newspaper, waiting for Andy's next sentence.
“Well, I was going to hire five airmen, and this time I came back, and on the plane, I made my own coffee. It's a little inconvenient. ”
“Hmm?”
“Wow -” Ivana frowned slightly, closing the newspaper, then her eyes glistened, her mouth curled slightly, and she looked at Andy with a smile, and Andy looked at her quite frankly and shrugged her shoulders.
Ivana shrugged, then picked the corner of her eyebrows and looked again at the fake copy of the newspaper. “Yes, I presided over the interview at the end of the day, and the stewardess was just a very simple profession. She didn't need too many special skills at all, not that she couldn't do it at an older age. ”
The corner of Andy's mouth unnaturally twitched a few times, and it turns out that this clever woman was going to get a bunch of air moms on the plane, but Andy had long anticipated that, naturally, she wouldn't easily surrender to her prospective housekeeper.
“Cough, here's the thing, I'm going to hire a global stewardess for $200,000 a year, and to better promote AMC TV, I want to make this into a comprehensive show, like a beauty pageant, of course, not the most important thing, but to show them PK, to engage the audience, to decide on the top five, to be the flight attendants of our private planes, and the first one, I think, is going to be a huge stunt, to attract the public's attention, whether it's an ad or a title, which is a good gain. ”
Even though she admitted that Andy had a good idea and would be attractive to fly on Andy Smith's private jet, with an annual salary of $200,000, almost four times the annual salary of all airlines, the show could probably succeed, but it certainly gave her a sense of frustration that her own man screened beautiful women around the globe to serve him.
His eyes were sharp and Andy looked at him, and the red chun was slightly beeping, looking like he wasn't very happy.
“I want you to be the lead judge, and we can even reach out to millionaires like Abu, millionaires or companies interested in adding air travel to their own private planes, and we can all reach out, and the stewardess's selection show is still blank, and I think there's a very good audience.
And whether it's etiquette, eyesight, fashion sensitivity, etc., you're the most appropriate judge, and we can embed the Ivana brand in the whole show, what do you think? ”
Andy had just this idea to get rid of Ivana's jealousy, but when he said it, he realized that it didn't necessarily work out, and Ivana jumped out of her previous little depressed communication speed, ruling out the caution that her man might have for himself, which was a really good idea.
“We can make this show a brand. The first season is to recruit our private aircraft. If the broadcast works well, I think someone will come to the door next season and find an airplane for the private aircraft, but also use it to promote and increase their reputation. I think a lot of millionaires will be willing to spend this money to keep the show going!” Andy stretched his hand proudly to squeeze Ivana's chin, picking a bad frown and laughing.
“You really...” Ivana shook her head with some tears, but the idea was a very good one, and some millionaires wouldn't mind spending millions on a TV opportunity, like her own dad, coughing.
Instead, the previously worried thing has become less worried, this kind of thing can't be prevented at all, and the show is really going to be a lot of loss of recruitment intent, and may even end up being a reality show, a $200,000 annual private airplane ride, not necessarily in the eyes of some girls who feel like they are famous, which in turn will become a focus of discussion.
“You can try it, but for the show to be great, I'm afraid it needs to be well planned, so PK can't deliver water.” Ivana whitewashed Andy at a glance.
“I just have this idea, and I'll tell Prapler about it for a while, and let the directors on TV think about it, but now it seems like hiring an air stewardess is turning into a reality show, shh, I really don't know what's going to happen. ”
“Oh, you thought of that, too? The mindset is different when you become famous. You don't have to look at the 200,000 yearly job. But isn't that interesting?” Ivana's mouth curled slightly and said with a smile.
“Don't miss the last ride, it's a big joke!” Andy's mouth twitched a few times and laughed bitterly.
“Giggle... Not necessarily. ”
Eyewitness Ivana walk into the cp building, Andy lifts up the window, takes out the phone, calls Prapler, talks about the idea of the stewardess hiring reality show, and then throws it to Prapler and asks him to gather the art directors to perfect it.
Andy himself soon threw it behind his head, and all he needed to do was see five beautiful, eye-catching skies boarding his private plane and serving him.
In Gaia's conference room, Andy sat on the podium and listened to his think tank report.
“General Electric's CEO, Jeff Imeldt, is a typical professional manager, perhaps a little too professional, and his style is to like" no news, no worries, "he doesn't like to hear bad news, and he doesn't like to convey bad news.
In the seven years since he took office, the size of general electricity capital has shrunk considerably. To sustain his growth, he continued to buy, spending $5.5 billion on Viwandi Entertainment and $9.5 billion on British Medical Imaging...
This subprime mortgage crisis, General Electric's heavy losses, is also a major allocation of money to the R&D sector, and he can only achieve financial results in order to grow short-term profits.
General Electric has evolved from a manufacturing focused company to a diversified consortium with no clear goals or mission other than short-term profits. This has worked very well for some time, long enough to make him a hero and a role model for those executives who like this dramatic change.
With the rupture of foam, short-term thinking began to expose its limitations, a strategy that exposed the enormous risks to general electricity to the surface.
After this trauma, we speculate that General Electric will return to its old path in the coming years, stripping General Electric of most of its financial and real estate assets and its unmatched businesses, and refocusing the company on its core business in the past - manufacturing operations that serve the aviation, energy and medical markets. ”
“The value of any model lies not in short-term success, but in long-term viability.” After listening to reports from his men, Andy said with emotion that there was also a clear perception of the limited thinking and vision of these professional managers, who focused only on immediate profits and preserved their thrones.
This professional manager is a very lethal poison for large companies wanting to grow in the long run. With the foresight, it is undoubtedly very timely for Andy who wants to consolidate his assets. He needs to be more careful in choosing his left and right arm, who can make quick money, and not necessarily the most suitable candidate.
“What about NBC Global?” Andy is more confident in getting NBC Worldwide from General Electric after listening to the debriefing, and this guy who's anxious to get out of trouble and wants to stabilize the throne is definitely a very good deal to deal with.
“For the NBC, Old Friends, which ended in 2004, is an important watershed for them! Since then, NBC has never found the right show to match its claim that it“ must watch TV ".
Other networks began challenging the NBC for Thursday night hours. They arranged the most powerful show to compete for this time period, and eventually the NBC fortress was easily broken.
The program crisis brought about by the departure of Old Friends remains unabated today. In the 2006-2007 season, NBC ranked last among four major television networks, including FOX, with 8.9 million viewers, down 9% year-on-year. NBC's annual revenues fell from $2.9 billion in 2004 to $1.9 billion.
In the new 2007-2008 season, NBC launched only four television dramas, one game, and the smallest of four television networks. Based on information we received from Nielsen, an authoritative U.S. television computing company, NBC's watch performance is projected to remain the weakest in the new season.
At that time, the monopoly of the television network had long been broken and its overall audience was losing at an average rate of 10 per cent per year. ”
“The group's strengths and resources do not seem to solve the shortage of NBC core programming products. Perhaps they would be very happy to have me as their new boss.” Andy picked some funny eyebrows, and said some small things with pride.
The crowd in the conference room couldn't help but laugh lightly, and of course, they were very persuasive about their bosses' abilities, and nothing else, just looking at the rapid pace at which AMC TV is now developing is enough to explain everything.
