Chapter 47: Telephone
Xu Changqing sat in the office, holding his forehead. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's Wednesday.
As the director of BF County TV Station, Xu Changqing has a lot to worry about, he is not a person who is willing to accept the status quo, but unfortunately in an ordinary county-level TV station, it is difficult to increase the ratings.
Even, judging from the overall trend, not only the ratings of other county-level TV stations in BF County, not to mention growth, have been declining in recent years!
Xu Changqing understands that this is the reason why cable digital TV began to become popular.
In other words, the number of TV channels that the people in the county can watch has increased, and the programs of the county's local small stations cannot compete with provincial and municipal satellite television.
This is a near-unsolvable conundrum.
The only way out may be on the Internet, which has developed more rapidly in recent years!
It's a piece of cake!
Xu Changqing knows this very well, so he has always paid more attention to the establishment of the network department of the county TV station; Liu Mengmeng's "Brother is Just a Legend", he has also watched a few episodes, although he personally doesn't like this form of sword-sided, but as the director, he also knows that if you want to attract attention, it is difficult to succeed by convention.
"There are still too few shows..."
Xu Changqing shook his head.
Since the establishment of the Network Department, there has been a period of time, but only one "Brother is Just a Legend" has been produced. But such results, compared with other counties in the city, are still good, I have to say that county-level TV has declined, with self-made programs, unable to seize the Internet cake.
Nowadays, not to mention pioneering, conservatism has become a problem.
The Internet is not as good as TV, and its audience stickiness is not high, the first episode of "Brother is Just a Legend" can be described as a hit, but in the next few episodes, the response was mediocre.
Inviting Lei Feng again was actually decided by many people, and the first episode of "The Invention of Heavenly Machines" really saved the show; But it is also because of the loss, many people are even more nervous, they can see that "Brother is just a legend" can be regarded as a second spring, so the second episode of "Tianji's Network Article" is temporarily in the doldrums, and they are worried!
Coupled with the cynical rhetoric of the red-eyed, there was a strange pessimistic atmosphere in the TV station.
As a result, many people are not optimistic about the follow-up development of the show.
Some people even suggested canceling the recording of the five episodes that were verbally promised to Lei Feng!
Of course, this proposal was rejected by the Ministry of Networks.
Monday's recording continued.
However, the "Tianji Volume 4", which was originally scheduled to be recorded on Tuesday, has been postponed to today.
The reason is that there are changes in the Dragon Boat Festival.
But Xu Changqing knew in his heart that this was just a pretext, and the real reason he knew was that everyone had no confidence in the show and wanted to wait for the third volume of Tianji recorded on Monday to be broadcast before making a decision.
Xu Changqing also participated in this decision!
He has watched the recently recorded "Tianji Volume 2 and 3", these two episodes and those videos in the past, it can be said that the style has changed greatly!
It's no longer about being funny, it's like a lecture!
Although many of the ideas revealed in these two episodes of the program make people feel eye-opening and unclear, Xu Changqing believes that it is difficult for this kind of lecture-style program to shock so many people.
Because transformation is hard!
The funny program purpose of "Brother is Just a Legend" has already entered the hearts of the people, once there are a few episodes with different positioning, at that time, if it can't attract more groups, but will cause the original audience to "lose fans", it will really outweigh the losses!
――This is also one of the reasons why many people oppose the continuation of the recording of the five volumes of the Heavenly Machine!
Of course, there is another main reason, which Xu Changqing may not have discovered himself - he actually looks down on Lei Feng!
He doesn't believe that a minor who is not mainstream can say anything earth-shattering!
He thinks that the interviews that have been clicked well in the past are just fresh and ridiculous because the young people are young and ignorant, and he doesn't trust a person who hasn't graduated from junior high school to succeed every time!
Even if someone reported that the data of the "Tianji Network Article" and the "Tianji Volume III" uploaded yesterday were somewhat abnormal in the past two days, Xu Changqing didn't pay too much attention to it.
In order to take it a step further before he retires, he has started planning new shows.
Although there is no clue about this so-called new show, Xu Changqing is reluctant to put all his eggs in one basket, especially in his opinion, that basket still has a tendency to leak......
"What a headache!"
Xu Changqing sighed.
Today is Wednesday, due to the decision of the Network Department, the recording of "Tianji Volume 4" will continue as usual this morning, but in Xu Changqing's opinion, with so much energy, he should focus more on the planning of the program.
"Clicks up? I'm afraid it's very limited......"
Xu Changqing doesn't think that those two episodes of videos talking about online articles can become popular, at least in his opinion.
Thinking of this, Xu Changqing stood up.
He took a sip of his tea and walked out of the office.
The BF County Radio and Television Station building is a little old, and Xu Changqing has the heart to go downstairs to see the departments, so he walks slowly down the stairs.
Most of the departments such as the Network Department and the Information Department are on the second floor, and the studio is also on this floor, but on the far left of the second floor.
Xu Changqing went downstairs, and a teenager came up on the first floor.
The boy glanced at him, but he didn't bird him, and walked straight to the left.
Xu Changqing shook his head.
He recognized at a glance that this boy with a messy hairstyle was Lei Feng who recorded "Brother is Just a Legend"!
I met here at this moment, presumably to record the "Fourth Volume of the Heavenly Machine".
Xu Changqing's heart became more and more displeased.
He even thinks that if it weren't for the fact that "Brother is Just a Legend" is an online show, it would be impossible for him to agree to let such an impetuous teenager appear on the TV show!
"What can you do with this?"
Xu Changqing shook his head.
He was about to move forward, but his phone rang.
"Lao Liu?"
Xu Changqing took out his mobile phone and was stunned for a moment when he saw the caller ID on his phone.
He used to be the deputy secretary of the town party committee, and he had a good relationship with Liu Sanduo, director of the office of the county party committee, but the two may not have been in touch for a long time, and they don't know what to do with him.
"Director Liu!"
Xu Changqing stepped aside and answered the phone with a smile.
"Lao Xu is in a meeting?"
"Nope."
"So what are you polite about? What director is not the director, I haven't seen you for a long time, come over for dinner one day! ”
On the other end of the phone, a loud middle-aged man's voice came.
Xu Changqing smiled.
Their personal relationship is actually not bad, so they casually responded: "Okay, I'll go another day!" But you have something to say, if you call me at this point, there must be something urgent! ”
"Haha!"
The other end of the phone smiled: "It's not a big deal, I just asked you about something......"
Half a day.
Xu Changqing hung up the phone, his expression a little puzzled.
He thought that Liu Sanduo had something to look for him, but he didn't expect that the other party just came to ask him what the latest episode of "Brother is Just a Legend" was about.
"Why do you ask this?"
Xu Changqing was a little strange.
The latest issue of "Brother is Just a Legend" has not yet started recording, and Xu Changqing himself does not know, so he is ready to make a call to the Internet Department to ask.
However, as soon as he turned out the phone of Chen Jianguo, the director of the network department, the mobile phone rang again!
"Li Zihong?"
Xu Changqing was stunned again.
This is a deputy director in charge of advertising at the city TV station, and they usually don't have much contact.
"Director Li?"
Xu Changqing answered the phone.
"Lao Xu!"
There was laughter on the other end of the phone: "I'm Li Zihong!" Not busy, right? I'll ask you something—"
