Chapter 1139: exploded

Needless to say, some people think that the stock price of Big Blue will rise sharply, and some people think that it is absolutely a stupid decision to pay 4.6 million times 32 weeks, and finally 147.2 million US dollars.

After all, no one knows how many people watched Million Dollar Winner.

But only one night later, Wall Street and stockholders discovered that, ten minutes after the opening of the day, there were no shares of Big Blue in the market.

Many people who sold their stocks yesterday quickly learned from the news at noon that the top ten buyers yesterday were all banks and major investment institutions.

There is no need for the professional investment advisor on TV to continue talking. Everyone who has watched the TV show understands that many people may have been fooled.

Immediately afterwards, the host of the noon news broke the news that all major organizations were betting that the ratings would exceed 30 million.

Or when betting on 32 programs, some of them will exceed 30 million.

And judging from the rate of return, Big Blue is eager to exceed 30 million in each episode, and then mobilize its own contacts and influence to help the show gain more attention.

Even if you have to pay 192 million U.S. dollars at that time, because of the record-breaking incident, both East and West will become a hot spot.

With the media touting it and the public's spontaneous attention, Blue actually's servers will definitely sell well, and then the stock price and market value will skyrocket.

Even if it only rises by 5%, with the size of Big Blue's 190 billion US dollars, it will be 8.5 billion US dollars, which is a good deal no matter what.

Damn it, countless stockholders who sold their shares, or hesitated to buy shares in Big Blue, all cursed after reading the news.

Those who are engaged in the media industry, just seeing the whole country discussing this matter, already know in their hearts that the ratings of the first episode of Million Dollar Winner will definitely explode.

At least there is no problem with breaking 20 million in the first issue.

A week later, HL Media was listed again, and there were still 9 days to go on Nasdaq at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday.

The overwhelming publicity, and Big Blue himself spent money to help promote it.

Countless Americans who could watch national broadcasts tuned to HL News.

Besides the $1 million bonus that attracted Americans, the mysterious celebrity guest also made countless people look forward to it.

Celebrities are inherently self-contained, not to mention guessing riddles, which is even more attractive.

Even gaming companies and major hotels in Las Vegas have lists of hundreds of celebrities and set odds for people to choose from.

And the one with the lowest odds was actually Annie, with odds of 1.2 to 1.

Li Changheng ranked outside the 50th place, and the odds are 5.4 to 1.

While making Li Changheng himself helpless, he also knew that the reason should be that he had only had one interview with the paper media.

Bo Cai and the major hotels in Las Vegas, so they are not optimistic that they will participate in the show in person.

However, after Li Changheng listened to Lao Tu's report, he immediately laughed.

The gaming company and the Las Vegas Hotel actually waited until the Caesars Hotel controlled by Mike Corleone offered odds on him before ranking him out of at least 50.

Even the Caesars Hotel ranked him outside the 90th place at the beginning, and the odds were even 10 to 1.

When Annie covered her mouth and kept laughing, Li Changheng swears directly.

Mike Corleone decided that after seeing the odds of 10 to 1, he saw the credit of the Corleone family over the years, and in order to prevent the Corleone family from losing too much money, he decided not to play in person.

And the second lowest odds, is Andre - Rockefeller.

The reason is that Andre has been acting as the host of TV sales for more than two years.

And the host of the millionaire winner has already been determined.

So many people think that Andre, who likes to show off, will definitely ask Li Changheng to play.

But to everyone's surprise, even unbelievable, the mysterious guest was Benjamin Arthur, Mr. Barrel.

Then in the first episode of the show, there was actually a fat man named Richard Wilton.

And Richard was dressed in a security uniform, with a baton in his waist, and stood next to a box containing a thousand question cards prepared in advance with a walkie-talkie in his hand.

At first glance, it looks like a security guard who is responsible for the security of problem cards.

After countless audiences were surprised, they lost money because they guessed wrong.

Or people who think that Richard is the murderer of the bombing, when their faces are full of anger and disbelief, the ratings of the live broadcast have exceeded 20 million within 5 minutes of broadcasting.

For a person like Li Changheng who has experienced the information explosion, he really knows that a program or movie wants to attract attention, except that the program must really attract people.

Stirring a topic is often more important than publicity.

Benjamin was on the show because Li Changheng rewarded him for his help in the merger of the media group.

At the same time, Li Changheng knew better, he couldn't let Benjamin steal all the attention.

That's why Richard appeared on the show, acting as a security guard to protect the problem from being leaked.

It can be regarded as protecting Richard to a certain extent, because there is no need for Li Changheng to stand up and explain, and it is not necessary for Richard to understand the reason. As long as he is hired by HL Media Group, the FBI will never dare to do anything without sufficient evidence.

At the same time, because Richard agreed to become an employee of the media group, his entanglements and grievances with the New York Times also automatically disappeared.

If Richard and his lawyer really want an answer, the lawyer will definitely tell Richard that at most they can only trouble the female reporter Casey.

And Casey is definitely an insignificant little role to Li Changheng and to the entire media group.

At the same time, the appearance of the two of them also aroused countless people's astonishment and puzzlement as Li Changheng expected.

And with all over the United States, countless viewers who called the TV station could not get in at all, and could only vent their vent on national or local radio programs.

More people are attracted to turn on the TV again, or turn to the HL media news channel, making the TV broadcast 15 minutes later.

The ratings have rapidly increased from 30,000 to 400,000 per minute to over one million per minute.

Just 21 minutes into the show, it officially broke 30 million.

Based on the 220 million population of the United States in 1975~lightnovelpub.net~, for every one hundred Americans, there were 13.6 people watching the show.

If it is converted into the data of TV ownership, the ratio will be even more astonishing, reaching 100 to 34.

That equals 12 million televisions, tuned to HL News.

Moreover, this is the result of the ratings survey agency under the seven major telephone and telegraph companies, after random phone calls and spot checks.

According to the media, this data should be increased by about 10% to 20%.

While everyone in HL Media was ecstatic, they must be more happy about Big Blue and the two telephone and telegraph companies under Morgan Stanley who won the hotline for 10 million US dollars.

By the way, when a sensational program is aired, it is never just TV stations and advertisers who make profits.

Enterprises specializing in selling televisions and telephones, as well as major publishing houses, will definitely thank Li Changheng.
