Invisible pretence is the most deadly!
At this moment, the audience was speechless.
We know you are pretending to be cool, but we can only stare at you and cooperate with you. How miserable!
Host Weinstein was also speechless at the moment, but Kyle was his boss. Others could not cooperate, but he had to cooperate, unless he didn't want to work at UPN anymore.
"Mr. Page, as far as I know, in addition to owning the copyright to the popular SpongeBob SquarePants animation in the United States, you also once owned the copyright to Teletubbies, right?"
Weinsteinton spoke again.
Without waiting for Kyle to speak, he introduced the show to the audience: "Dear audience friends, some of you may not have heard of Teletubbies. But I must tell you that Teletubbies has been the top children's show in the UK for the past decade, with an average viewership of over 7%!"
Such high ratings?!
The audience was stunned again.
Someone wanted to ask on the spot why the major TV stations in the United States did not introduce and broadcast it?
Hehe!
NBC TV in the United States introduced and broadcast the show as early as last summer.
However, the ratings can only be described as appalling.
"Teletubbies" is very much to England's taste, but the people of America seem not to be interested.
Although the two countries have the same cultural roots, there are huge differences in some aspects.
The popularity of "Teletubbies" clearly reflects this point.
This is also the reason why when Kyle signed the agreement with the BBC, he only asked for peripheral profits and did not strive for the North American broadcasting rights.
It's such a rip-off!
In the original time and space, Disney, which also purchased "Teletubbies", was badly cheated. It was forced to take the show off after only less than 10 episodes were aired.
Kyle smiled and said on the spot: "I have to say, Winstanton, you did a good job. I will consider giving you a raise."
"Well, how should I put it?"
"The copyright of Teletubbies is full of coincidences."
"Not long after I registered the North American and European copyrights, I got a call from the BBC. It turned out they were developing a series that was surprisingly similar to my Teletubbies in terms of format, concept, characters, and so on. So you know what happened next."
After Kyle finished speaking, he started laughing.
The whole person looked very proud.
Who made Kyle register the copyright in advance?
Yes, strictly speaking, the BBC was ripped off by Kyle.
"Well..."
Weinstein was stunned and immediately asked, "So, Mr. Page, you made a lot of money from Teletubbies?"
Kyle raised his lips slightly and opened his hand: "This number! 5 million US dollars, and every year!"
Oh shit!
The audience was stunned again.
Brandon, the former ace negotiator, also looked at Kyle in astonishment and blurted out, "How did this bastard make so much money?!"
John asked in confusion, "What does this have to do with you? Why are you reacting so strongly?"
"Dude, can it be okay?!"
Brandon raged, "I negotiated this deal with the BBC, and that damned vampire, Kyle, only gave me $10,000 for my services! No way! After the interview, I'm going to demand more money!"
John shook his head gleefully.
If you can successfully collect your wages, I will take your surname.
If others don't understand Kyle, how could John not understand him?
...
...
The following interview content:
Constantly revolving around Kyle's career.
$10 million to acquire the copyright of Spider-Man;
Invested in ICQ and became the largest individual shareholder;
A large purchase of Yahoo stock, representing 2% of the shares, worth more than $30 million;
He acquired the debt-ridden UPN network from Viacom, Paramount's parent company, and launched the animated series "SpongeBob SquarePants," which helped expand the market. He also single-handedly created the now globally popular "Got Talent," which raked in over $100 million in advertising fees.
Acquired California Standard Bank and became a banker;
...
Etc.
As Kyle's identity was revealed layer by layer, the audience exclaimed in amazement.
However, they are numb!
That's right, I'm numb.
The shocks they received today were simply too many.
They never imagined that such a young man like Kyle would possess a wealth that they would never be able to achieve even if they worked their entire lives to achieve. If someone had a little more money than you, you might be jealous, or even think it was just luck; but when your wealth becomes as vast as the ocean, you can no longer envy them, but can only sigh in despair.
"Mr. Page, I understand that Eminem, the popular contestant on America's Got Talent, has been signed by your company, Golden Dawn Music. Is that true?"
The topic that Weinstein suddenly mentioned caught the audience off guard.
Can we still play like this?
Isn't this cheating?!
Many audience members at the scene directly called it a shady deal!
"That's true."
Kyle said solemnly, "But I want to make one thing clear: when Eminem participated in the preliminary performance, he was not yet an artist under my company. However, there will be audiences who still insist that we are involved in shady dealings."
Suddenly, the audience was stunned.
According to their understanding, shouldn't Kyle refute it strongly now?
Why would you admit it so easily?
"Everyone, I want to tell you something."
"That's because we've never held a talent show like this before, and we lack experience in this area. We were a little careless."
"Therefore, I've decided that our 'Got Talent' production team will implement a comprehensive voting method for the semi-finals, semi-finals, and finals, combining live audience voting, off-site SMS voting, online voting, media voting, and other methods with the judges' votes. This way, even if we were intent on shady dealings, it seems unlikely."
After Kyle finished speaking, the whole scene fell silent.
Many people couldn't help but nod in agreement.
The introduction of multiple voting methods allowed them to see the sincerity of the program team.
At this moment, Ms. Donna backstage couldn't help but smile.
The audience is still too young.
Although many voting channels have been added, the final decision-making power is still firmly controlled by the program team.
"It's just fairness in form."
"And voting via SMS platforms outside the venue is simply a new way for the boss to make money."
Ms. Donna smiled inwardly.
Winstanton's question was arranged by Kyle and Donna.
Although the news that Eminem has been signed to the company has been suppressed, it will eventually be exposed as the show continues. Instead of doing that, it is better to reveal it himself and leave a good impression on the audience.
Time flies.
This episode of I'm a Celebrity has reached the end of recording.
After Kyle talked about some general matters happening in America.....
The interview ends here.
This is Kyle's first appearance on a television platform.
