Time flies by.

    In the twinkling of an eye, it was the end of April.

    With the participation of more than 600 staff members and tens of thousands of contestants, the preliminaries of "America''s got talent" all over the United States have officially come to an end after 35 days.

    In the end, only 200 excellent players entered the preliminaries!

    The contestants who have been promoted to the preliminary contest are naturally very excited, because the preliminary contest is not a audition, it will be officially broadcast on the TV platform; The contestants who were eliminated in the audition were, of course, extremely disappointed. Whether it''s the million dollar prize away from them, or the inability to let the American audience see their performance, they are extremely uncomfortable.

    Of course, there are also surprises!

    In the audition, those excellent performances, or extremely bad but characteristic programs that make people laugh, have been deleted and selected as the pilot film of "talent show" and broadcast on UPN TV.

    To tell you the truth, the hasty editing of the audition clips is a bit rough.

    The stage setting is simple, too.

    However, when the audition footage was broadcast on UPN TV, it attracted a large number of viewers.

    They say they like it very much!

    A total of five issues of the pilot film, the average number of viewers in each issue, reached 16 million!

    In particular, at the peak of the last issue of the pilot film, the number of viewers in North America exceeded 20 million.

    Boom!

    This data instantly caused a sensation in North America!

    Countless audiences, whether they have seen the pilot film or not, are looking forward to the race of American talent show!

    It''s getting worse!

    add strength to what is already strong!

    There is no doubt that "America''s got talent show", which has not been shown in the competition, is really hot. And, still can''t stop the hot!

    "This month, I''m tired to death!"

    "I''m a billionaire. I''m so damn tired."

    "In the next season''s program, I''ll have a taste of" rule by the arch "in everything I say

    Recently, Zucker is really tired.

    In fact, Zucker can be a shaker.

    He left the whole project of "talent show" to his subordinates, but in order to make the show successful, Zhuke had to pay attention to the progress from time to time. After all, he had seen a lot in his last life.

    Have experience!

    Zhuke, who is hard-working and hard-working, is very pleased to see that everything is going well in the preparation of the program, especially when one sponsor after another comes on the stage.

    Why?

    Because the sponsors are fighting for money!

    "We''re not bad for money," said Coca Cola《 We voted for the winner of the talent show

    Pepsi Cola people are very disdainful: "do you have money? We''ve decided how much you''ll pay. It''s always a buy it now price higher than you

    Ford, an auto giant, said it didn''t agree: "more than money? We''re not bad either

    Mobil Oil: "just give us the location of the naming agent, and I''ll give you a week''s free taxi advertising space in the United States."

    Microsoft: "Mr. Wald, both of us are shareholders of ICQ. Even if we can''t win the title, please give us a position as the main sponsor."

    Amazon''s beiguangtou also came: "Zhuke and I are old friends. The sponsor''s position is certain and we must have Amazon mall."

    .......

    Happy trouble!

    Happy trouble!

    Watching famous American enterprises come to the door, Zhuke seems to be calm, but he is already happy!

    Grandma''s, it''s all green dollars!

    Finally, after several times of bidding price, "American talent show" title, as well as five oral advertising space, three video patch advertising space, including other fragmented props advertising space, prize guessing advertising space and so on, all sold.

    $120 million!

    That''s right. That''s the advertising money for season one of America''s got talent.

    Don''t be too much!

    You should know that after 2010, the advertising expenses of those ace variety shows in the Great China Dynasty will exceed 100 million US dollars only for a single naming company; Video sites and other fees, is appalling!

    Therefore, the advertising cost of the first season of "America''s got talent" is 120 million US dollars, which is really not much.

    This is mainly because the broadcasting platform of UPN TV network is relatively small. If it is replaced by NBC, ABC, Fox and other American TV giants, then the advertising expenses will definitely increase by 50 million US dollars, which is the lowest.

    Of course, the advertising cost of 120 million US dollars is not so easy to get.

    In the agreements signed with a number of sponsors, there are minimum ratings requirements.

    Once the average audience rating of the program is less than 2.2%, Zhuke will have to give the change to these funders; However, when the average audience rating is higher than 2.8%, the sponsors will also increase the payment of advertising expenses in proportion.

    For the audience rating requirements, the program group of UPN TV network has expressed great pressure.

    But.

    Zhuke said it was very relaxed.

    "Ha ha, in the original time and space," America''s got talent "had the lowest ratings in the fourth quarter, with an average rating of 2.4%. Now it''s the most attractive first quarter. What''s the difference in ratings?"

    Zucker is very confident.

    Moreover, Zhuke is very confident to reach the 2.8% rating standard line.

    no

    To be sure, the audience rating target that Zhuke set for the talent show at the beginning was 3%!

    ...

    ...

    The news that the advertising cost of "America''s got talent show" reached 120 million US dollars once again caused a wave of sensation across the United States.

    Fox, NBC and many other TV network industry counterparts are envious.

    "Judging from the popularity of American talent show, the success of the show is not far away," said a senior practitioner in the television industry

    Peer envy envy hate, the audience said that the "talent show" program more and more look forward to.
