According to Mehr reporter, Peyman Jabali, head of Sedavasima, explained on the sidelines of the closing of the documentary television festival about Nowruz series: I have already said that about 23 series are in different stages of production, including the script, pre-production and production, and for Nowruz and the holy month. Ramadan is also being carefully planned.
He went on to say about the series that have remained undecided in the broadcast, such as the series “Thunder” by Behrouz Afkhami and “Ashura” by Hadi Hijazifar: We hope that these series will also be completed. Final works mini A special series for “Ashura” has been done and friends are checking that it will be included in the broadcast schedule at the same time as the historical occasions. Of course, it was supposed to be placed in the conductor during the days of Muharram and Safar, but for some reason it was not finalized yet, and the last information I have, this collection is now complete.
Programs that are unprecedented in the history of the World Cup
The head of the national media said about why the reporter was not sent to Qatar to report the World Cup games: We sent the most effective and diverse television and media team to Qatar, which is unprecedented in the history of the World Cup. We achieved what was needed to show the World Cup in terms of quality games and more. For the first time, these games were shown in 4k quality, the rights to broadcast the games were purchased and we provided them to our dear people for free. Even to help platforms and Oh you P T The existing ones were also provided to them in the good interaction we had with them.
Jabali about whether the presence of the reporter in the stadium could have been better or not? He said: This is also an opinion that is respectable, but our decision was that with the variety we gave to the people in the production and presentation of the World Cup programs, I think they were satisfied until now.
The funny figure of 10 thousand billion income
He went on to say about the denial of the 10,000 billion figure for the income of radio and television from the advertising of the World Cup games: a public relations announcement was published and this figure was denied. You can refer to the advertising site of the General Department of Commerce. The figure that can be seen on the site is the raw figure that the advertiser must pay if he wants to work on that basis. We have long-term contracts of one year or more and offer special discounts to support the industry. The figures you see in the tables are never figures that will be realized.
Jabali added: “The funny figure of 10 thousand billion, which is more than the budget of TV and Radio, is not believable. Our request to our dear colleagues in the media is to provide more detailed information from the organization.”
Qatar itself did not broadcast the games for free!
In response to whether this figure was such that it would compensate for the amount purchased for broadcasting rights, he said: High-quality broadcasting of World Cup programs is the inalienable right of our dear people. You can check, maybe in no country in the world can people watch the World Cup matches for free with the highest quality. Even in the host country of the World Cup, no one could watch the games for free unless they were present in the stadium.
Jabali said: Generally, in different countries, either by paying for cable networks or through some companies broadcast that they were doing this work was done. But we considered it our duty that despite the heavy financial burden for the radio station, we preferred to buy this and provide it to our dear people for free and with the highest quality.
Enlightenment effort against hostile media
In another section, the head of Sedavasima said about the attention given to documentaries in the new structure: Documentary network is naturally a basic base for broadcasting documentaries, but the type of documentary is something that none of the networks can ignore. Documentaries are being broadcast from different networks, and we think that if we have an agile and centralized structure for the professional production and distribution of documentaries in different networks, in order to organize documentary production and broadcast management, documentaries will be better seen. it helps.
In another part, he mentioned about the reaction to the suspicions of the opposing media and the performance of the radio and television in this area: the work that has been done in the last one or two months and the creation of short programs on the networks is an attempt to neutralize false propaganda and fake It has been the media that publishes about the realities of Iran. Although we do not claim to produce the best and most luxurious programs, we have tried our best and we hope to provide enlightening programs in various types.
In the end, Jabali answered about the right to broadcast the World Cup games and that some of the opposition media could not broadcast these games: The right to broadcast was bought by the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting. Ben Sports Company, which is the representative of FIFA in the Middle East region, because the Islamic Republic of Iran Radio was the only media that had the right to broadcast the games in Farsi, the company itself wrote a letter and threatened to take legal action against the Iranian media who wanted to broadcast these games without permission. show and we also used our natural right.
