HBO TV station.

President Krah Wiley looked at the people in the meeting room with joy on his face.

"Everyone, the financial statements for the fourth quarter of 1998 have been released. Here I want to tell you that as of now, the number of subscribers of our HBO TV station in the United States has exceeded 38 million, surpassing Paramount Online. Ranked first in the United States."

The voice fell.

Senior executives such as Dinonte, Director of Production, Smith, Vice President of Operations, Trillina, Director of Advertising, and Ewa, Director of Marketing, all applauded in unison.

"Yes, we finally got the first place."

"Since the first title is won, then nothing can be lost."

"That's for sure, Lei Shidong is old, but he still doesn't recognize his old age. They lose to us. This is not something that is taken for granted."

"Hehe, we won anyway!"

"Yes, it's not a waste of our hard work a while ago."

With 38 million subscribers, it is well deserved to be No. 1 in the United States.

You know that a quarter ago, HBO TV and Paramount Online, two cable pay TV stations, competed for the first place, but they competed for three years.

Now, the result has finally been announced.

HBO has 38 million subscribers, surpassing Paramount Online’s 37.2 million subscribers.

"Just be quiet, gentlemen and ladies."

President Krah Wiley raised his hand and said again: "At the same time, our last quarter's revenue was 420 million US dollars, an increase of 6.7% year-on-year."

"This achievement, among Time Warner's subsidiaries, is higher than Time's 310 million U.S. dollars, second only to Warner Bros. Pictures' 1.2 billion U.S. dollars and Time Broadcasting Corporation's 850 million U.S. dollars, ranking third."

In the words, President Krah Willy’s face was full of pride.

Since 1992, President Krah Wiley has served as the president of HBO Television, and he has carried out a series of reforms to make HBO Television truly develop.

In 1991, HBO Television’s annual revenue was 3.4 US dollars;

But by January 1999, HBO TV’s revenue in just one quarter was as high as 420 million U.S. dollars, and its annual revenue exceeded 1.5 billion U.S. dollars.

For all this, Krah Willie is a great feat.

He is a well-deserved chief hero!

"We can have today's results. Without the leadership of Mr. Willie, that would be absolutely impossible!" said Dinonte, the director of the production department.

"Yes!"

Smith, vice president of operations, echoed: "I estimate that by the mid-year meeting of the group in June this year, Mr. Willie will surely be promoted to the first vice president of the group (Time Warner)."

Ha ha!

Who says the old beauty is straightforward?

In fact, among enterprises in all countries and regions in the world, it is inevitable for subordinates to slap their heads on their superiors.

Who doesn't like good-speaking subordinates?

"Hey, hey, it's early to say. I haven't done enough, and I will continue to work hard in the future." Willie waved his hand again and again to humble himself.

"what?"

At this moment, a subordinate pushed open the door of the meeting room and handed a report to Smith, the vice president of operations.

Smith looked at the report in his hand and immediately made a sound of surprise.

"What's the matter?" Willie asked with a smile.

Smith did not speak, but forwarded the report to President Willie.

"Smith, today is a day of great joy, don't look so ugly, be happy..."

When Willie was halfway speaking, his face changed and his smile was lost.

Willie's gaffe completely fell into the eyes of everyone around him. The director of the production department, Dinonte, glanced at it, and saw the report titled-UPN!

.......

Paramount Online (Viacom TV)

"Damn Zhuke!!!"

Lei Shidong, Chairman of Viacom Group, roared: "We are surpassed by the old rival of HBO, but I never expected that Zhuke's UPN TV station would have 21 million in silence. The number of subscribers in the U.S. is second only to Paramount Online and Warner’s HBO."

The number of subscribers of UPN TV network ranks third in the field of cable pay TV in the United States.

This result is shocking!

After all, whether Paramount Online or Warner’s HBO TV station can have more than 30 million subscribers, that is the result of years of development. The manpower and material resources invested during this period are undoubtedly very huge.

but!

Zhuke’s UPN TV station, only a few years ago?

As far as it has developed to the third-largest pay TV in the United States, how can Redstone not be surprised? !

HBO President Willie was also full of shock when he saw this report.

"Everyone, in the field of cable pay TV, from now on, we will have one more opponent!" Lei Shidong said solemnly.

"Yes, boss."

Several executives present immediately responded.

"The Walking Dead" is absolutely indispensable for UPN TV's ability to have the third largest number of users in the United States.

Of course, the two animated series "SpongeBob SquarePants" and "Little Pig Page" are also important main forces.

The most important thing is the "No Ads Strategy"!

American cable pay TV’s “ad-free strategy” was initiated by HBO TV, which was implemented in 2001. This traumatic move has won numerous audiences, praise and favor, and laid a solid foundation for HBO to dominate the cable TV field. basis.

But now, its creator is Zhu Ke!

It's the UPN TV network under Zucker!

The ad-free strategy is definitely an extremely influential measure in the history of cable TV!

........

[Little TV Emperor Zhu Ke-worthy of the name! 】

This is the headline of the California Entertainment News this morning.

[UPN TV Network, 21.25 million subscribers, ranked third in the field of cable pay TV in the United States;]

[WB Television Network, the overall ratings and number of viewers in the fourth quarter of 1998, ranked fifth among American public television stations;]

As soon as the report came out, who would dare to say that Zhu Ke's name as "Little TV Emperor" was a false name?

On this day, many people who bought the "California Entertainment News" all let out a burst of exclamation.

"Mr. Wald, cool~!"

"I thought he would only do cartoons and variety shows, but who would have thought that he would do TV dramas, he could be so good!"

"According to the estimates in the newspaper ~www.novelmtl.com~Mr. Zhuke Wald's current assets already exceed $3 billion."

"Yes, this huge wealth is enough to make him rank in the top 400, no, even the top 300 in the Forbes list of the richest people in the United States in 1999."

The people began to discuss, and the major media newspapers also forwarded the report.

America's pursuit of wealth is beyond everything.

however......

When Zhu Ke saw this report, his eyelids twitched.

"It's still not as good as HBO TV."

"In 1998, HBO's annual revenue was as high as 1.5 billion U.S. dollars. I remember that in a future year, its annual revenue was 13 billion U.S. dollars, and its subscribers exceeded 80 million."

"UPN TV Network, a long way to go!"
