沒錯，我們要來聊聊電視新聞。

We're going to do entertainment and showbiz today, because sometimes, every now and again, that is also whoppingly great news from the entertainment industry.

我們今天要來聊娛樂和演藝圈，因為有時候，偶爾也會有來自娛樂產業的超棒新聞。

So newscast today will be Hollywood cast, because Netflix is going to buy Warner Brothers, one of the iconic 20th century landmark institutions of the United States, popular culture and global.

所以今天的新聞播報將是好萊塢陣容，因為 Netflix 要收購華納兄弟，這是美國 20 世紀標誌性的地標性機構之一，也是大眾文化和全球的。

And today we will have an excuse to do one thing which is always a source of great joy, which is delve into one of the finest Eurovision brains in the land, which happens to belong to you.

而今天我們將有一個藉口做一件總是令人非常開心的事，那就是深入探討這個國家最頂尖的歐洲歌唱大賽專家之一，而那個人正好是你。

Well, we've got one guest who knows both subjects Netflix, Warner Brothers and Eurovision.

嗯，我們有一位嘉賓，他同時瞭解 Netflix、華納兄弟和歐洲歌唱大賽這幾個主題。

Later we will talk about Eurovision, which is the source of headlines all over again, for a boycott, although it's still going ahead in next year, the 70th.

稍後我們會聊到歐洲歌唱大賽，它又再次成為頭條新聞，因為抵制，雖然明年還是會照常舉行，這是第70屆。

But we're going to get underway with other TV news.

但我們要先來處理其他電視新聞。

So let's start with this mega bucks deal between Netflix and Warner Brothers.

所以我們就從 Netflix 和華納兄弟之間的這筆鉅額交易開始吧。

It's like the baby's grown up, the streamers are eating the studios.

這就像是小孩長大了，串流平臺正在吞噬製片公司。

It's one of the biggest deals of its kind ever in history.

這是有史以來這類交易中最大的一筆。

And to help us talk about it all, mercifully, we've recruited somebody who knows more than either of us on the subject.

為了幫助我們談論這一切，幸運的是，我們找來了一位對這個主題比我們任何一個人都要了解的嘉賓。

So we can introduce Scott Bryan, who's a TV critic and broadcaster.

所以我們要介紹的是電視評論家兼廣播員 Scott Bryan。

Scott，你正從索爾福德加入我們。

Lovely to have you with us at the weekend.

那麼，Scott，請你先跟我們說說。

What are the bones of this deal, first of all?

首先，這筆交易的重點是什麼？

And then we can get on to why it matters.

然後我們就可以討論它為什麼重要了。

I mean, I think it's worthwhile pointing out to start off with who Warners are these days, because it has got a bit confusing in recent times.

我覺得一開始值得先點出華納兄弟現在的狀況，因為最近這方面有點讓人搞不清楚。

I mean, Warners, you know, in their history has had Looney Tunes, they make Harry Potter, they've done big hits like Friends, and

說到華納兄弟，你知道，他們歷史上有《湯姆貓與傑利鼠》，他們製作《哈利波特》，他們也推出了像《六人行》這樣的大熱門，而且

of course they also run hbo, which does Succession, Sex and the City, Game of Thrones and now Netflix, of course, hardly needs an introduction.

當然，他們也經營 HBO，推出了《繼承之戰》、《慾望城市》、《冰與火之歌》，還有現在大家都很熟悉的 Netflix。

Changed the way that we watch TV as well as films as well, have now spent this eye watering figure, $72 billion, intending to now purchase Warners.

他們改變了我們看電視和電影的方式，現在花了令人咋舌的 720 億美元，打算收購華納。

Now they're not buying the existing company in the US that Warner's a part of.

他們並不是要收購美國華納現在所屬的現有公司。

Discovery, the Discovery part run channels such as cnn, a lot of cable channels and that's actually currently being spun off into a new company.

Discovery，Discovery 部分經營 CNN 等頻道，還有很多有線電視頻道，而這些目前正被拆分出來成立一家新公司。

Essentially what Netflix are planning on doing is purchasing the existing assets.

基本上 Netflix 計劃要做的是收購現有的資產。

It's what they say by having these big shows such as Friends, they are able to have them added to their existing library.

他們說，透過擁有《六人行》這樣的大熱門節目，他們就能將這些節目加入他們現有的資料庫。

Netflix Friends in the UK is already planning on leaving Netflix at the end of December.

英國的 Netflix《六人行》預計在十二月底離開 Netflix。

I can imagine it will sort of live on in the service in some way, but

我可以想像它會以某種方式繼續存在於該服務中，但是

it's also, I mean, adding to its subscription base.

這也等於是增加了它的訂閱用戶。

Netflix has about 300 million users worldwide, whilst HBO has 128 million.

Netflix 全球約有三億用戶，而 HBO 有一億兩千八百萬。

So you're essentially adding the world's biggest streaming service, Netflix, with the third largest streaming service, hbo.

所以你基本上是將全球最大的串流服務 Netflix，與第三大的串流服務 HBO 合併。

So it's so, so it's really, really rather big.

所以，所以這真的很、真的很可觀。

Said they're going to have half a billion people signed up.

Only a fraction more than the newscast weekend audience.

只比新聞播報的週末觀眾多一點點。

But also we think of Warner Brothers as making some of the biggest movies of the, of the 20th century.

不過我們也認為華納兄弟製作了 20 世紀一些最賣座的電影。

So can we just name some of them so we can all relish them?

那我們能不能舉出一些例子，讓大家一起回味一下？

And then is Netflix also buying studio lots?

那 Netflix 也有在收購製片廠嗎？

Is it buying the ability to make more content at the same time?

是不是同時收購了更多製作內容的能力？

So, Scott, give me some of the Warner Brothers movies that I can dream about and answer the question.

所以，Scott，請告訴我一些華納兄弟的電影，讓我可以憧憬一下，並回答這個問題。

Is Netflix buying the capability to make more movies?

Netflix 是不是在收購製作更多電影的能力？

So they've made June, they made challenges, they've done the sort of latest Wonka adaptation, the Suicide Squad.

他們製作了《朱比特之月》，他們製作了《挑戰者》，他們做了最新的《旺卡》改編電影，《自殺突擊隊》。

I mean, they are very big on franchises too, such as Batman, but

我的意思是，他們也非常重視系列電影，像是《蝙蝠俠》，但是

it is a big shake up in Hollywood and they will be to say Casablanca, Gone with the Wind, wizard of Oz, of course, all of those as well.

這在好萊塢掀起了巨大的波瀾，他們也會說像《卡薩布蘭卡》、《亂世佳人》、《綠野仙蹤》等等，當然還有那些。

maybe I think it's a sign of how hard I think Warner Brothers have found trying to manage the modern age of making content.

或許我認為這顯示了華納兄弟在應對內容製作的現代化方面有多麼艱難。

I mean, you know, those are absolutely adored, beloved, perfect films, but of course, from many decades ago.

我的意思是，你知道，那些電影都非常受喜愛，是經典的完美電影，但當然，它們都是幾十年前的作品了。

And Warner Brothers, I think it's fair to say, have been finding, navigating the recent climate because of the rise of the streamers really rather hard.

我認為可以公平地說，華納兄弟在串流媒體崛起後，近幾年來在應對近期環境方面確實遇到了不少困難。

I mean, also in their favor, they have had a good couple of years now.

我的意思是，對他們有利的是，他們這幾年過得還不錯。

They've not done too badly at the box office.

They've got a great slate coming up as well.

他們接下來也有一系列很棒的作品。

Is Netflix buying the ability to make films and shows it so, so they will be able to, I mean, Netflix say that they are going to be pretty much for the time being, for the interim, they will allow Warner Brothers to still make these films and productions.

Netflix 是不是在購買製作影視節目的能力，所以他們可以，我的意思是，Netflix 表示，就目前而言，他們會允許華納兄弟繼續製作這些電影和節目。

They say they are still planning on keeping the subscription service HBO Max, which is planning on actually launching in the, in the UK in only a few months.

他們說他們仍然計劃保留訂閱服務 HBO Max，該服務預計在幾個月內在英國推出。

你會想知道長期的計畫是什麼。

And they say that they are going to be investing in content, that they are going to be maintaining their current spending plans.

他們說他們將會投資內容製作，並維持目前的支出計畫。

But as you can imagine, the news of the last 24 hours has really, I say, so shaken Hollywood to its core because there's been concerns firstly about whether this is maybe too much dominance by Netflix as a major streamer, but

但正如你所能想像的，過去 24 小時的新聞確實，我說，讓好萊塢為之震驚，因為首先有人擔心 Netflix 作為主要串流平臺是否過於強勢，但

also in terms of if there's less competition, will that essentially mean fewer big film releases and therefore fewer jobs?

同時，如果競爭減少，這是否意味著大型電影上映數量減少，進而導致工作機會減少？

There's also the contradiction in the fact that Netflix largely have been reliable, reliant on having movies made straight to people at home, watching them on their TV sets.

還有一個矛盾之處在於，Netflix 在很大程度上一直依賴於直接將電影製作給在家觀看電視的觀眾。

They might have a small little window for maybe Netflix films being shown in cinemas, but

他們可能會有一個很小的窗口期，讓 Netflix 電影在電影院上映，但

They might have to do them for eligibility for the Oscars, for example.

他們可能為了奧斯卡獎的資格，例如，必須這樣做。

但 Ted Sarandos，也就是這家公司的。

He's been very clear about how they are first and foremost a entertainment industry to be enjoyed via the home.

他一直很清楚，他們首先是一個娛樂產業，要在家享受。

So of course now having this company now purchase Warner Brothers, which has for decades been very much focused on having it through the cinema releases, has certainly raised quite a lot of concerns, particularly within the cinema industry, which has been sort of struggling to get the magic back post Covid.

所以現在這家公司收購了華納兄弟，而華納兄弟數十年來一直非常專注於透過電影院上映，這確實引起了不少擔憂，特別是電影產業內部，這個產業在疫情後一直在努力找回昔日的輝煌。

I mean, for the time being, Netflix say that they aren't really going to be touching that model.

我是說，就目前而言，Netflix 表示他們不會真的改變這個模式。

You know, they're trying to, I think allay fears.

他們正在試圖，我想是為了減輕大家的擔憂。

But they have said that they wanted to sort of focus very much more on sort of supporting the, the current industry.

但他們確實說過，他們希望更專注於支持目前的產業。

But they say that they might be making the windows for theater releases, quote, much more consumer friendly.

但他們說，他們可能會讓電影院上映的窗口期，引述的話，對消費者更友善。

And I think there's a lot of concerns about what exactly consumer friendly means and whether that will affect kind of the cinemas having a dominance in terms of how we watch films.

我認為大家對「更友善」到底是什麼意思，以及這是否會影響電影院在我們觀看電影方式上的主導地位，有很多擔憂。
