Chapter 400: The Last Contestant
Chapter 400: The Last Contestant
Because of this, the ratings of these knockout matches conducted by the TV station are far worse than the final round. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info is not a grade at all, so to speak.
Everyone knows that the advertising price of a TV station's program is directly linked to the ratings of the program. Only programs with high ratings have high prices, and the price of this advertisement is also high. Because, only programs with high ratings will attract more manufacturers.
In order to be able to get the right to advertise in these programs, these manufacturers naturally try to raise the price of their own advertising. In this way, the price of advertising for these high-rated programs will also rise. And some programs that have no ratings, the price of advertising is getting lower and lower!
That's why TV stations don't want to hold too many of these knockouts that don't have ratings. Just want to hold this highly rated finals competition.
But any competition has a knockout round, just like some sports competitions and some singing competitions, not all of them have to be eliminated first, and then enter the final round.
How can TV stations avoid these knockout rounds with no ratings, and only hold the final finals? This requires the leaders of the TV station to use their brains.
Fortunately, now the TV station has a deputy director with a flexible brain, that is, a deputy director who is now serving as the organizing committee of the provincial cooking competition. Before, he was not the deputy director, but the director of an entertainment channel of the provincial TV station.
How did Director Liu get to the position, that is, through this time to share the worries of the leader, give advice to the leader, and solve a big problem that the leader urgently needs to solve, so that he got to the position.
This big problem is that the provincial TV station will hold a provincial cooking competition every year. In the previous competition, there were a total of four competitions. First the preliminary round, then the semi-final. Then there are the semi-finals, and finally the final.
In this way, this provincial cooking competition alone will take almost a month. In other words, the provincial TV station spends a month every year to hold this provincial cooking competition.
This month, the provincial TV station is going to spend tens of millions of yuan for this competition! But in the end, the advertising revenue is not much more than the capital invested. Especially last year, due to the poor ratings during the finals, the TV station even paid money for such a game!
For this reason, this matter made the top leader in the station very nerve-wracking, and he thought about how to hold such a competition. It can increase the ratings and continuously reduce the cost, only in this way can this provincial cooking competition continue to be held.
If they keep losing money, the TV station will not be able to hold such competitions again. After all, after the implementation of the government and enterprise reform, the TV station has also entered the track of self-financing. And the vast majority of the income of TV stations is to make money by making programs to increase ratings and pull advertisements in such a cycle.
If the TV station can't do a good job of the program and can't increase the ratings, then the TV station can't sustain it.
It is precisely because of this that all TV stations in the country, just like a company and an enterprise, must do everything possible to do a good job in their own programs, constantly increase ratings, and then earn more advertising fees.
And how to do a good show, this is also a kind of knowledge! At the beginning, the leader of a TV station thought of holding such a cooking competition in the form of live TV, which was also a great idea!
Several years of hard work have also proved that such an idea is good. In the first few years of the live broadcast of the provincial cooking competition, people have not seen such programs on other TV stations because they are still relatively new.
So, in the first few years, the TV station held such a show, and not only the final was watched by many people. Even if it was some of the previous knockout rounds, there were a lot of people watching it! Therefore, in the first few years, the TV station held such a live broadcast of the cooking competition, which made a lot of money!
However, in recent years, other TV stations may have seen the benefits of provincial stations holding such programs, and they have imitated them. In this way, it has led to the proliferation of live shows of this kind of cooking competition. There are too many such programs, and the quality of the programs will be uneven. As a result, these shows just don't feel as new as they were before, and they are not as attractive as before.
Faced with the situation that the ratings of this live cooking show are getting lower and lower. Provincial Taiwan just thought of some ways. Want to make some changes to this show! Originally, the leaders of the provincial station still wanted to cancel such a program at the beginning!
But think about it, no matter what kind of program is run now, it has a strong market competitiveness. After all, whether it is a provincial station or some city stations, a large number of entertainment programs are held.
Because TV stations also have to rely on the market to survive, their leaders also have to bow to the market. Only by holding more entertainment programs that cater to the taste of the market can the overall ratings of TV stations not be very low.
At first, the provincial station wanted to ban the live entertainment program of this provincial cooking competition. But after thinking about it, I couldn't think of any other entertainment program to replace it, so I could only let it exist like this.
Anyway, in the live broadcast of the provincial cooking competition held a few years ago, the TV station has been making profits. Although the profit is not very high, it has not yet reached the point of losing money.
However, last year, there was an exception, and the live broadcast of this cooking competition turned out to be a loss. Because of this, the leaders of the station are discussing how to reform this program, so that it can be revitalized and increase the ratings for the TV station.
It was at this time that the leaders of the TV station held a meeting and asked some of the station leaders to think of a way to see whose ideas were good and who could come up with a good way to bring this program back to life.
It was at this critical moment that the director, surnamed Liu, put forward his ideas to the top leaders in the stage. This idea, as soon as it was said, made the top leader in the stage look at him with admiration. I feel that the method that Director Liu said is really good, with his trick, then the entertainment live broadcast of this cooking competition will definitely be revitalized again, and once again increase the overall ratings of the TV station!
Director Liu's idea is to cancel all the knockout competitions in front of this provincial cooking competition. In other words, the TV station is no longer conducting the previous knockout round, but only the final round. In this way, it saved a lot of money for the TV station at once.
But in such a competition, if there is no previous knockout round, how can it be possible to directly enter the finals! If you don't choose some good chefs, who will you let go directly to the finals!
This, of course, is also the key to solving this problem. Since Director Liu put forward this idea, he also solved this problem.
Director Liu's idea is to replace the previous knockout competition with some culinary competition certificates, that is, as long as you are a chef who has won the championship award in some major culinary competitions at any time before this year's provincial and Taiwanese cooking competitions, then you can directly participate in the finals of the provincial and Taiwanese cooking competitions.
In this case, it will suddenly be a troublesome and troublesome knockout match without the provincial TV station itself. What's more important is that such a knockout tournament is also very expensive. This is the reason why TV stations can't stand these knockouts.
And this Director Liu has solved both of these problems. He first canceled the first three processes. Only one last step remains. That is, the process of the finals. Let the TV station save a lot of manpower and material resources all of a sudden.
After that, he thought of replacing the previous knockout with the championship certificate of the large-scale cooking competition that the chef himself had participated in before this year's Provincial Taiwan Cooking Competition, so that the number of people who came to participate in the finals was not much, and they were all considered some excellent players.
After all, these players have already gone through some large-scale competitions, and it can be said that other units have selected these outstanding players in advance for the provincial station. When I got to the provincial platform, I naturally didn't have to compete anymore. You can go straight to the finals.
This Director Liu, because he thought of this trick, was greatly appreciated by the top leaders in the station, that is, he was directly promoted from the director of an entertainment program to the deputy director of the provincial station. It can be said that it is on the rise.
And Tian Feng is interested in the reform of this cooking competition, so that he can directly participate in such a provincial cooking competition from a small chef in a small county!
Tian Feng's qualification for the competition is naturally the fact that he won the honorary certificate of the champion in the food live broadcast program held by the county TV station before. After all, this time the provincial cooking competition, the participants are naturally the chefs of all the big hotels in the province. It doesn't have to be a chef in a provincial town!
It is precisely because of such a reform in this program that Tian Feng is qualified to participate in such a large-scale cooking competition program.
But not everyone is as lucky as Tian Feng. Because the qualifications for this cooking competition are stipulated, that is to say, it must be within the year before the broadcast of the provincial cooking competition, and the grand prize won in some large-scale cooking competitions can be used as a condition for participating in the provincial cooking competition.
If you haven't won the grand prize in some cooking competitions this year, but only won the grand prize in some cooking competitions last year, or the year before that, you are still not eligible to participate in this provincial cooking competition.
In this way, Tian Feng is relatively lucky to have the qualification to participate in this provincial cooking competition. He didn't have to participate in any knockout tournaments at all, he just went straight to the finals.
It's just that when arranging the order of gassing, because Tian Feng is the only player who is not a provincial city. Therefore, when arranging, it was arranged by the leaders of some cooking competition organizing committees to be the last to appear.
Because the leaders of the organizing committee of these culinary researchers feel that Tian Feng is just a young man, and he will not have too high cooking skills at all, and he is placed in the last place, just because he doesn't want him to come out too early, if his cooking level is not high, it will make people feel that the level of these contestants in the cooking competition they held this time is not very good!
So Tian Feng was deliberately arranged to be the last to appear by some leaders of the organizing committee of the provincial cooking competition this time!
Now it's Tian Feng's turn to play. The previous player was already under the ridicule of the audience and friends, and under the huge pressure, he just gave up the game.
And now everyone is focusing on Tian Feng, the audience and friends, I just wonder if this player will be like the previous player, just give up the game! In that case, this cooking contest would be so boring. It's just become a stage for two five-star chefs to perform.
Tian Feng was also very angry at this time, he knew that it was time for him to attack, and these two arrogant old guys had to teach them a lesson.
When Tian Feng stood up, the eyes of everyone in the audience were fixed on him. This includes those who have already competed in the tournament before.
There is also the player who gave up the game just now, and he also wants Tian Feng to give up the game! Because, he felt that if Tian Feng also gave up the game, then he would at least have a companion.
And everyone else just doesn't want Tian Feng to give up the game! Even if it's just going up and stir-frying a dish, even if it's not as good as the five-star chef at all, it always prolongs the time of the show, so that everyone can watch the show for a while. At the same time, it will directly put some pressure on the two five-star chefs! Let them know that there are still players who are not afraid of them, and they are going to have a competition with them!
Li Wenya is also looking at Tian Feng now, naturally looking at him with expectation, hoping that he can rush to the stage as soon as possible, and immediately reveal his unique skills, so that everyone can see what kind of chef can be regarded as a real master!
There are also Zheng Peng and Chen Fatzi, who are now also thinking of asking Tian Feng to hurry up to the stage and immediately perform his best shows, so that the two five-star chefs and a few judges can also open their eyes and let them know what it means to have a sky outside the sky and someone outside the world.
"Alright, let's be quiet!"
When Tian Feng stood up, the beautiful host began to speak. After all, she is the host, and of course she has to speak first.
After listening to the words of this beautiful host, everyone was temporarily quiet, just to hear what this beautiful host would say.
"Hello, you are the last player, the previous player has already given up the game, do you want to give up the game too!" The beautiful host had already walked in front of Tian Feng from the stage and put the microphone in her hand to Tian Feng's mouth.
Tian Feng looked at the beautiful host and smiled and said: "If you give up or not give up, I want to hear the opinions of the audience and friends, I have always liked to stand with the masses." If the audience thinks that I am not good, and I am not the opponent of two five-star chefs at all, and persuade me to give up this competition, I will take the initiative to give up. But if the audience believes in me and is willing to let me participate in the competition. As long as I can give me a little applause, I will rush forward without hesitation and take down the two five-star chefs. ”
Tian Feng's words were indeed beyond everyone's expectations. Even the beautiful host was surprised! She looked at Tian Feng for a while, and she didn't know what to say.
And all the audience friends were also very surprised, they couldn't imagine that this last contestant would say such imposing words. No matter what the strength of this player is, just these few words are enough to ignite the passion of the audience.
In fact, before this, the audience and friends had no hope for this last contestant. After all, the previous one has already given up on his own initiative. This last one must have learned that one. Anyway, he also has a companion. The previous one dared to give up on his own initiative, and he naturally could learn from him and give up the game on his own initiative.
However, Tian Feng's few words immediately made all the audience at the scene look at this young man with admiration. Before, everyone also saw Tian Feng sitting in the last contestant's seat, and felt that this was a handsome-looking, somewhat thin figure, very young, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a chef. How do you look at it, it feels like a college student!
If Tian Feng weren't sitting in the player's position, it would be difficult for people to associate him with a chef. After all, Tian Feng is really not a chef. There is nothing about him like a chef.
But Tian Feng is sitting in the position of a contestant, which also makes the audience and friends have to treat him as a chef! Although everyone regards Tian Feng as a chef, everyone just feels that this kid can't be very powerful at all, just his appearance and figure, and his age, how do you look at it, he is just an amateur food lover, it is impossible to be a chef who has been in the industry for many years!
Therefore, before Tian Feng said these words, everyone didn't have any hope for him, but they just thought that he must be like the previous shrug, stood up, and then lowered his head, saying that he didn't want to compete anymore. He said that he was not the opponent of a five-star chef at all, and he just wanted to sit down and save some effort!
But Tian Feng's words were really surprising, he actually said everyone's thoughts, and he was willing to rush forward without hesitation for the sake of the audience and friends. After saying this kind of thing, it was immediately warmly welcomed by the whole audience. Everyone gave Tian Feng a warm applause.
Because, no matter whether Tian Feng has the strength or not, just these few sonorous and powerful words have already made everyone very happy. Everyone just feels that as long as Tian Feng plays this time, even if he loses, it can be regarded as a breath of relief for everyone. After all, the previous shrugging bag withdrew directly, but it fueled the arrogance of the two five-star chefs, they just felt that the last two players would withdraw directly, and then the two of them could win this game, and finally the two of them tied for the first place and won the widowhood of the provincial cooking competition.
This result, for two five-star chefs, is really perfect, and it is also too awesome. After all, the two of them had already scored the highest points of the game. The latter two players both retired directly, so for the two of them, they can really walk on the stage proudly, and then arrogantly accept the championship trophy awarded to them by the stage leader. If that's the case, two five-star chefs, it's really going to be crooked.
But what the two five-star chefs didn't expect was that this last contestant turned out to be a stunned young man, and people were really not afraid of them, and they really wanted to perform. This made the two five-star chefs a little unhappy at first.
When Tian Feng just finished saying these words, the scene erupted in a burst of warm applause, and after that, the audience in front of him spontaneously shouted the slogan: "Good brother, we support you." Good brother, we support you, you will definitely win, you will definitely win. ”
"You're going to win, you're going to win!"
"You can do it, you can do it!"
"Defeat them, defeat them!"
After the audience shouted such a slogan, the audience behind them also began to shout the slogan, and for a while, the entire studio was full of passionate horns, as if Tian Feng was now a general who was preparing to charge. All the spectators were like his warriors.
This scene, not to mention anything else, is equivalent to giving the two five-star chefs a resounding slap in the face. The two of them just couldn't sit still. Seeing that the audience all supported this last player, the two of them were a little angry for a while.
In order to save some face first, Master Chen suddenly stood up, looked back at Tian Feng and said, "Little brother, are you really going to play!" I feel that you should give up on your own initiative just like the contestant just now! Don't let the excitement of the audience get carried away. It's not the spectators who play, it's you. Don't be impulsive, after you get on the field, you won't even be able to fry the dishes, and it will be you who will be embarrassed by the time, not others. You have to think about it, now that you voluntarily withdraw from the competition, no one else can do anything to you. Anyway, didn't the player in front of you already set an example for you! Why should you be a hero again! If you want to be a hero, you often have to pay a price, you have to think about it, don't do something that makes you embarrassed in front of everyone because of the impulse. ”
As soon as Master Chen finished speaking, before Tian Feng could say anything, his partner, another Master Zhang, suddenly stood up, looked back at Tian Feng and said, "Little brother, what Master Chen said is true!" You have to think twice! Don't look at the audience and friends to give you a round of applause, you don't know the southeast and northwest, do you know that your current opponent is not an ordinary person, it is two five-star chefs, and we have already scored 98 points. Do you feel like you have a chance to win us!
