I don't know when the taste of the year and age have formed an inverse ratio, and for Liu Jingting's generation, this feeling is especially obvious.

When I was a child, three or five friends were all over the village to pick up firecrackers, which was also a great joy for the New Year, but now the New Year's family is more than fireworks, but they can no longer create the lively atmosphere at that time. When chatting with peers, the most common thing to say is, "The New Year is getting more and more boring".

In addition to the diminishing sense of anticipation for New Year's food, the main reason is the dilution of the sense of ritual, and the reason why Christmas in the Western world has become popular in the world is due to Santa Claus, Christmas trees and Christmas songs.

On the first day of the New Year, Liu Jingting sent a text message to Yi Shui'an, and in addition to blessings, a few words of emotion were indispensable.

"There is a lack of a representative activity, and the difference from the usual seems to be limited to the difference in time. ”

Yi Shui'an replied with "Happy New Year", and gave his own explanation by the way: "On the issue of faith, we are a nation without specific beliefs, except for money, in the final analysis, it is a lack of reverence for the world. ”

"But then again, for many people, the world is full of all kinds of malice, and what they see and feel is full of helplessness and even despair, and there is really no way to be in awe, after all, rituals are still pastimes after food and clothing. ”

Yi Shui'an agrees with this argument and keenly captures the proposition of "ritual": "The word ritual you mentioned is very interesting, can I understand that sometimes we need a few days in our lives?"

"Yes, to make a certain day different from other days, to make a certain moment different from other moments. For example, there is a ritual in our New Year. At this time, everyone gathered together to eat and chat. It's a beautiful day, we can sing and dance until late at night, and if we don't have these things, or if it's every day, then it's nothing special. ”

"I see what you mean. ”

"That's not what I mean, that's what The Little Prince means. ”

"The little prince?"

Liu Jingting was stunned for a moment and replied: "If you have time, I will give you the full manuscript." ”

"Well, that's right. Congratulations on entering Vientiane. ”

"yes, haha, thank you. ”

"Besides, it seems that your contract with Qianhong is about to expire, and ...... after entering college."

"The "Chu Liuxiang" series will always come to an end. I'll talk to Mr. Lu in two days. ”

Similar to Xue Muliang's thoughts, Yi Shui'an could also roughly sense that Gu Yongsheng was not a thing in the pool. It is inevitable to start a sect. In this regard, she can only remain silent.

……

The rerun of "Huanzhu Gege" has finally begun.

The premiere has an average rating of nearly 30%, which has already created a ratings myth, and when Xingyue announced the rebroadcast plan, there was no doubt that there was a lot of applause on the Internet.

Ocean TV, which has won the prime-time ratings championship for two consecutive weeks, finally ushered in the head-on challenge of this drama. If we can use "different time periods, no comparison" to cover up this gap in strength, there is no reason to lose again this time. The introduced drama will also bear the stigma of being "defeated by rerun dramas".

The development of things did not surprise everyone, just when "Da Shang Palace" announced that the plot had entered the climax, "Huanzhu Gege" got 40% of the ratings on the first night of the rebroadcast, and the market share was close to the terrifying 65%, that is to say, at the same time, 65 out of 100 people watched "Huanzhu Gege", two numbers jù ahead of "Da Shang Palace" three or four ranks.

The ocean side did not respond to this, unilaterally acquiescing in the defeat.

Xingyue except for the drama team, others maintained a restrained joy, especially the executive general manager Gong Chengpin, because of this big victory, the relationship with him is not so big, not to mention jealousy, and there is always some self-blame, so in the face of the interview, he didn't say anything too much.

And the high-level of the ocean who said too much, after careful consideration, really kissed the donkey's ass on Gong Chengde's talk show.

For the executive, this can be regarded as a successful public relations, with the mentality of entertaining the public, the section is lightly revealed, and the audience is shown to do what he says.

For Gong Chengde, it can boost the ratings of the program, and it can leave brilliant evidence for "Huanzhu Gege" that he also participated in, and I believe that many years later, when this ratings battle becomes a classic that people are vying to praise, everyone will turn out this interview for reminiscence.

In the end, "Huanzhu Gege" created the highest rating of 70% in the Jianghai area, won the average rating of 61% in the country, and the finale created the highest rating of 73.6%.

Xingyue received purchase requests from 16 satellite TVs around the time, and advertisers competing for naming rights have raised the price to eight figures, and several actors in the play have also become popular all over the country overnight, with continuous announcements and advertising invitations, becoming the hottest stars in the country.

……

"Don't look at me with that kind of suspicion, I should share his share and I won't lose a dime. ”

The first thing Gong Chengen, who got the news, did was to run to the eldest brother's office and ask about Liu Jingting's sharing, and Gong Chengpin was obviously very dissatisfied with his younger brother's suspicion of him.

"I'm not suspicious of the eldest brother, I just don't want Gu Shuai to have prejudices against us because of this matter, after all, we have to count on him in the second part. Gong Chengen said with obvious lack of confidence.

"He's already talking to you about the second part?" Gong Chengpin asked seemingly casually.

"When the first part was finished, he promised that there would be a second part, and it shouldn't be wrong. ”

Gong Chengpin nodded, didn't say anything, and when Gong Chengen left the office, he heard the calm voice of the eldest brother coming from behind: "You win this time." ”

……

Liu Jingting, who got a lot of money from Xingyue, originally wanted to buy a house for his parents in the county town, but after several conversations and temptations, he found that his parents were not willing to leave this place where he had lived for many years, so he had to dispel this idea and consider building a big house here.

It seems that every boy has a dream in his heart to build a big house for his parents.

After the ending of "Huanzhu Gege", Liu Jingting's winter vacation also came to an end, before going to school, he received a call from Director Li Tan, Director Li didn't thank him much, and he didn't urge the progress of the second part, but simply told Liu Jingting a few interesting things about the New Year.

"In the past, when I went to my mother-in-law's house for the New Year, I was reluctant to pay a hundred or ten thousand people's greetings, because I knew that the so-called son-in-law's New Year's greetings were still a battle between open and secret battles and comparisons with each other. ”

"My brothers-in-law and brothers-in-law are either doctors from Union Hospital, engineers, or senior managers, only me, although I am known as the contracted director of Xingyue TV, but I really don't have any outstanding performance to report to everyone, and the attitude of my mother-in-law and father-in-law is also clear, so every year I am disgraced and silently listen to them talk about life and career, and the international situation. ”

"However, this year is different, haha, on the second day of the Lunar New Year, I deliberately went a little later than in previous years, and my wife and daughter, who already regarded me as an idol, didn't dare to urge me at all, for fear of disturbing my thinking about the second plot, haha, Director Liu, don't laugh at me for pulling your tiger skin as a banner. ”

Liu Jingting was very pleased to hear this, and said with a smile: "It's my honor to be used by Director Li to decorate the flag, what happened?"

"Later, it was even more exciting, when I rushed to my father-in-law's house with my wife and daughter, one or twenty people suddenly poured out to greet me, my father-in-law and mother-in-law stood at the front, and a group of nephews and nieces rushed up to ask for autographs, Xiaoyanagi, you may not be able to understand my mood at that time, it was the first time I held my back so straight at my mother-in-law's house, and I smiled so naturally, I saw my brother-in-law and brother-in-law standing behind the crowd, their expressions were very strange and complicated, and I felt very happy. ”

"It's not confusing to say it's forty, but people are not sages, how can they really not be confused?"

Liu Jingting listened quietly, and the picture of Li Tan standing proudly in front of a kind of relative, smiling calmly and calmly came to his mind, which was very warm and inspirational, but also cruel and realistic.
