Chapter 87: The First Step

The second episode of "A Bite of Xiangjiang" was broadcast on ATV, and the average rating of the night reached 23.5%, which is a very, very good result as far as variety shows are concerned.

The next day, although the popularity of the second episode of "A Bite of Xiangjiang" was not as sensational as the first episode, after all, the reason why this show was concerned at the beginning was mainly because of Jiang Ran. Despite this, a considerable number of media still followed the show on the same day.

The media's attention to this program produced by Ran Feng has declined, but for ATV, they have begun to pay unprecedented attention to the program, because this is an opportunity to make up for the shortcomings of the TV station's program.

Xu Xiaoming came to the TV station early in the morning, and the whole person looked energetic and high-spirited.

"What's wrong with Manager Xu today? After saying that, since he became the program manager, the whole person has become serious. ”

"I heard that the variety show "Xiangjiang on the Tip of the Tongue" produced by Ranfeng Company had very good ratings last night, and he was less stressed, can he not be happy?"

"Speaking of this show, I also watched it, Ran Feng's production is really good, I really didn't expect Jiang Ran to host the show so interesting. Speaking of which, he's our boss!"

"I heard that from the planning to the production of this show, Mr. Jiang took the lead, and he personally made the planning case. I have to admire him, he is only twenty-one years old now, he owns several companies, and his net worth of hundreds of millions is not to mention, just this talent in film and television production, let me look up to the mountains!"

After watching Xu Xiaoming walk away, several TV station employees gathered together and muttered quietly.

I don't know what ATV's employees say about Jiang Ran and Xu Xiaoming, but he himself really admires the director of the TV station now.

Thinking about a relatively ordinary food show, Jiang Ran has a different sense in his hands, taking into account the audience's appetite and fun, while slowly seeing the cultural part in the second episode.

Although he had already reported the situation to Qiu Degen yesterday, as soon as he arrived at the company today, Xu Xiaoming still had to report it again. However, before reporting to Qiu Degen, Xu Xiaoming first picked up the phone and dialed another person.

"Hello, I'm Jiang Ran, who may I ask?" a young voice came out of the phone.

Xu Xiaoming subconsciously straightened his waist, and said politely with a smile on his face: "Hello, Mr. Jiang! I am Xu Xiaoming, the program manager of Asia Television. Now I bother you mainly to report to you about the ratings of "Xiangjiang on the Tip of the Tongue" yesterday. ”

Jiang Ran's interest was obviously aroused by Xu Xiaoming's words, and he quipped: "Oh, that's troublesome Manager Xu, yesterday's ratings didn't encounter Waterloo, right?"

Xu Xiaoming listened to Jiang Ran's joke and immediately said: "Mr. Jiang is joking, yesterday's ratings of "Xiangjiang on the Tip of the Tongue" were very good, and it has exceeded 23%. ”

"Oh, I actually broke 23, I expected it to be very good to break 20, but I didn't expect to get an unexpected surprise. Thank you, Mr. Xu, for the good news. In the future, we can often contact each other, and Ran Feng will ask Manager Xu for more guidance on the TV project. ”

Jiang Ran's courtship outside of his words was full of goodwill, of course Xu Xiaoming also heard it, but he was happy to see Jiang Ran's courtship, after all, didn't he call Jiang Ran in person today just to get the other party's approval?

At the beginning, even when Jiang Ran was the director of the TV station, he had no intention of showing favor to him, and he was quite dissatisfied with Ran Feng taking away part of the program production power from him.

So what prompted Xu Xiaoming to change his perception and position?

The hit broadcast of "A Bite of Xiangjiang" made Xu Xiaoming admire Jiang Ran's production talent on the TV show very much, and his previous resentment against Ran Feng taking the production rights was also quelled.

But this incident only made Xu Xiaoming's attitude towards Ran Feng and Jiang Ran begin to calm down, and it couldn't make him polite to Jiang Ran like today, after all, he relied on Qiu Degen's dock, and although Jiang Ran had great energy, he couldn't control his head.

However, just some time ago, when the first episode of "A Bite of Xiangjiang" was launched, Xu Xiaoming began to pay attention to this show, so he learned about Jiang Ran from a friend.

At this time, he unexpectedly got a piece of news that Jiang Ran and Qiu Degen actually signed the right of first refusal to purchase ATV's equity, that is to say, after Qiu Degen, Jiang Ran is very likely to become the new boss of ATV.

After all, it is no secret that Qiu Degen's children oppose him running ATV, and when Qiu Degen is old and his children have no intention of running it, it is almost predictable that Jiang Ran will become the owner of ATV.

It is precisely for this reason that Xu Xiaoming will take advantage of today's opportunity to call Jiang Ran, on the one hand, to make up for the impact caused by his neglect of the Feng program in the early stage, and on the other hand, he hopes to leave a good impression in front of Jiang Ran in advance, so as to lay a good foundation for Jiang Ran to join ATV in the future.

When Jiang Ran received Xu Xiaoming's call, Ran Feng Company had not yet received ATV's ratings report. He himself was worried about last night's ratings, and now a heart that he mentioned can finally be put back in his stomach.

"Ah Wei, come to my office. Let's talk about movies. Jiang Ran called Liu Liwei with a relaxed face.

Some time ago, at the request of Jiang Ran, the production department and the editorial department have been intensively preparing for the company's second film this year, as well as the TV series in cooperation with ATV.

A few days ago, Liu Liwei had already reported to Jiang Ran that the script of the movie had been completed and a suitable director was being selected, but during that time, Jiang Ran was doing the later stage of "Xiangjiang on the Tip of the Tongue", so he handed over all the things about the movie to Liu Liwei.

Now that the food show has been a great success, the foundation has been laid, and whether it is in the recording of the program or the editing in the later stage, the personnel of the program team have begun to get started, and Jiang Ran no longer needs to worry about everything.

Since the things on the "Bite of the Tongue" don't need to worry too much, of course Jiang Ran has to care about this movie led by Liu Liwei.

"Knock! knock!" Jiang Ran was thinking when there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in!" Hearing the knock on the door, Jiang Ran straightened up and shouted outside the door.

Liu Liwei pushed open the door and walked in, followed by the person in charge of the editorial department, Hu Hai with a serious face. Since Hu Hai was told by Jiang Ran last time, he returned to the editorial department to put away his original smiling expression, carried out a large-scale rectification of the entire department, and fired a few people who were messing around, which made the editorial department much more efficient now.

"Mr. Jiang!" After the two came, they stood in front of Jiang Ran's desk and greeted Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran saw the two of them standing there respectfully, smiled and waved his hand, and beckoned, "Sit down and say!"

Then he turned his head to Hu Hai and teased: "Ah Hai, you are too serious now, I heard that the staff of your editorial department are very afraid of you now!"

Speaking of this, he had a little hint of advice, "You are putting too much pressure on yourself now, so you can't do it." Your editorial department is a creative department, and an environment that is too serious is not conducive to the creation of works, so you can appropriately reduce the pressure on yourself and give some space to your employees. Of course, you can't be without control like before, and you have to grasp the degree of it. ”

Hu Hai's expression moved, and then as if relieved, he pulled the corners of his mouth, and said a little hoarsely: "I know, Mr. Jiang!"

Jiang Ran nodded, turned to look at Liu Liwei, and asked, "How far is the film ready now, has the director been selected? When can the actors and crew be formed, and what is the budget?"

Although Jiang Ran paid less attention to this movie in the early stage, it doesn't mean that he doesn't pay attention to this movie, from a certain point of view, it is precisely because he attaches too much importance to this movie that he doesn't pay attention to it, because this movie is too critical for Ran Feng's movie.

It represents that after Ran Feng broke away from Jiang Ran's wings, he began to officially become independent and took the first step in film and television production.
