In the live broadcast control room, Zhou Fang and Cai Jianjun have completely put their minds at ease, and tonight's live broadcast of this event must be a success

There are still four contestants left who have not sung on stage, but the direction of this live event has been fully established, and there is no possibility of any fundamental deviation. Even if there are some accidents in the next few contestants, the impact on this event will not be too great, unless Zhou Fang and the program team's luck is extremely bad, and some irreparable mistakes suddenly appear on the stage. However, based on the overall trend tonight, this is very unlikely.

"Xiao Cai, you continue to stare here, I'll go to the hotline team to take a look." After explaining to Cai Jianjun, Zhou Fang left the live broadcast control room.

Zhou Fang is a little worried about the situation of the hotline, and it is there that there is the most likely accident in the next live broadcast.

Judging from the live broadcast in the first half, the audience tonight was extremely enthusiastic, and the number of calls exceeded Zhou Fang's expectations. Of course, Zhou Fang knows that there are many reasons behind this, and there are still a few characters with great energy among these players, such as Liu Qi, such as Rulan who relies on the University of Science and Technology, and of course Ye Zi and Jin Wenbin, who currently occupies the first position, but this is something that Zhou Fang, the organizing committee, and the program team are happy to see. It's just that such a large number of telephones poured in in just three hours, and it is a question whether the pre-arranged equipment of the telephone office can withstand it. Once their devices can't keep up with the influx of phone calls, a good thing can turn into a bad thing.

Zhou Fang didn't want to see such a situation happen.

A hundred hotlines were arranged in several large rooms next to the big studio, which were originally used to store stage props, lighting and sound equipment, performance costumes, etc., but this time they were all occupied by the hotline team.

Rows of long tables are neatly arranged in these large rooms, and telephone sets are lined up on the tables about two meters apart. The front of the desk was crowded with two temporary operators of drama school students, one of whom wore a conversation headset and kept talking loudly while the other buried himself on the table to take notes. More than a dozen TV station staff trotted back and forth from room to room, constantly collecting the number of votes cast by the contestants recorded by the operator.

Every room was filled with a constant cacophony, and the scene was busy. The red light in front of the operator kept flashing, and they didn't have time to stop and take a sip of the throat protection herbal decoction that had been prepared for them a long time ago, and many people's voices were hoarse by now.

But none of the students stopped their work.

Each of them is focused, focused, and distracted. Although their expressions looked a little tired, their energy was still burning like a fire.

Zhou Fang stopped and looked at the door of each room for a while, and did not disturb these students who were working hard, and nodded. Extremely satisfied, he walked away. She is very satisfied and proud of her arrangement, this time fortunately she found this group of students from the Drama Academy, otherwise she recruited a group of old oilmen to come over, and the current situation would not be easy to say.

The hotline team is not stable here, then it is really a big mistake.

The second edition of the competition can continue to cooperate with the School of Drama. Zhou Fang had already secretly made a decision in her heart.

"Chief Engineer Mao, what is the situation now, can your equipment withstand such a large number of calls?" Zhou Fang took Zhang Wenliang, who had been staring at the hotline group, to find Chief Engineer Mao sent by the telephone bureau in the computer room, and as soon as they met, Zhou Fang immediately asked him questions, which is also what she is most concerned about now.

Chief Engineer Mao glanced at Zhou Fang, and his face was slightly embarrassed.

When the two sides negotiated in advance, it was the chief engineer Mao who set the limit of 100,000 phone calls in front of Zhou Fang, and at that time he thought that such a number would not be broken by a three-hour live broadcast program anyway, but now......

Faced with Zhou Fang's question, Chief Engineer Mao was really a little embarrassed.

"Director Zhou. We've called back to the bureau to ask them to add another set of equipment. “

"Well, that's good." Zhou Fang was a little relieved: "Has the new equipment been used?" “

Chief Engineer Mao's face became even more embarrassed: "Now...... Debugging is still underway. “

"Huh? Still debugging? Zhou Fang's eyebrows suddenly rose: "How long will it take to debug the equipment?" “

Chief Engineer Mao thought for a while: "It will take about a quarter of an hour to half an hour, a quarter of an hour is not very safe, and it will definitely be completed in half an hour." “

"Half an hour? You bastards! “

Hearing Chief Engineer Mao's answer, Zhou Fang was furious, stretched out his hand and slapped it heavily on the table: "What did you do earlier?" Look what time it is, I don't have that much time to waste on you! You call me back now, the equipment must be debugged and start running within a quarter of an hour, if the live broadcast accident is caused because of the equipment, your telephone bureau will be fully responsible! “

Chief Engineer Mao was frightened by Zhou Fang's sudden angry shouting. He stood motionless and did not speak. Zhou Fang, who has always been gentle and strict, really has a kind of overwhelming momentum when he starts his temper, and in a trance, he thought that it was his own director who appeared in front of him.

"Chief Engineer Mao, what are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and call. Zhang Wenliang didn't dare to persuade Zhou Fang at this time. Although Zhou Fang is usually strict, she is not intimidating. She rarely loses her temper in front of her subordinates, but once someone has a problem at work and is caught by her, Zhou Fang at this time does not recognize her six relatives, and no one can dissuade her. That kind of momentum and pressure, Zhang Wenliang has learned many times before, that kind of fear from the heart. Even today, Zhang Wenliang still remembers it vividly.

At such a time, the best thing to do is to immediately do what Zhou Fang instructed.

Zhang Wenliang's urging brought Chief Engineer Mao back to his senses, he felt very aggrieved in his heart, and carefully explained: "Zhou ...... Director Zhou, Director Li has already called to urge them. I...... I called an hour ago to ask the bureau to add a set of equipment, and it was just ...... It's just that as you know, there are few people on duty at night in the bureau, and they can't be busy. “

"Can't get busy? Hey, hey, hey. Zhou Fang sneered twice and didn't say anything more.

Since Deputy Director Li of the Telephone Bureau is already on the phone, there is no need for Zhou Fang to persecute this Chief Engineer Mao again, of course she knows that there are many things that this Chief Engineer Mao can control. Can't get busy? It's a ridiculous excuse not to be too busy and lazy. Zhou Fang knows too well about the situation of people floating in these high-ranking units, isn't it the same situation within the TV station? Now instead of blaming Chief Engineer Mao, it is better to prepare a solution plan in case of a problem.

"Chief Engineer Mao, if the old equipment is no longer able to be used when the new equipment is not used, do you have any solution?" Zhou Fang slowed down his tone and asked calmly.

Chief Engineer Mao had been thinking about such a situation all night, and at this time he immediately gave his own solution: "There is a way." “

"You say."

"At present, the equipment used in live broadcast is imported from country D, and their design margin is very large, and we can tap the potential in this regard. In addition, we can temporarily pull all the call lines of the TV station to the rescue. But there will be a problem with this operation, after pulling it over, the phone calls of the TV station itself cannot be dialed, and they will not be able to return to normal until they are returned. When it comes to these aspects, Chief Engineer Mao is very sure.

Zhou Fangshen said: "Chief Engineer Mao, you ...... Are you sure this is possible? “

"It must work!" Chief Engineer Mao is very confident: "Until now, all the equipment we have pre-arranged is running well, and the speed of connecting calls is also very fast, I estimate that even if it takes another half an hour, it will not be a big problem, and the new equipment should have been running in parallel at that time." Even if the new equipment is not in place, I am sure that it will last for another half hour according to the plan I just mentioned, but the telephone connection speed will be much lower in this half hour, and these hotlines will become very difficult to call. “

"It's better to be hard than not to be able to fight." Zhou Fang immediately clapped down: "Chief Engineer Mao, you start pulling the line over now, and I'll contact the TV station." You must move quickly, the next hour and a half will be the time when the call volume is at its highest, and you must ensure that the hotline is working properly. “

"Xiao Zhang, you just stared here, urge the phone bureau to let them get rid of these things quickly, and I'll go and discuss the matter of temporary cable pulling with Director Cheng." Turning around, Zhou Fang gave Zhang Wenliang an order, pulled her legs and walked outside the computer room, and she also had to hurry up with Cheng Zhongqing to settle the matter.

Chief Engineer Mao looked at Zhou Fang's back, and felt very uncomfortable, when will the matter of the telephone bureau be contemptuously called "broken things"? But he couldn't correct Zhou Fang's statement, and he didn't have the courage at all.

Originally, this is what the telephone bureau itself did not fight, where can I complain about people to say a few words? The debugging of a set of equipment and the parallel operation have not been done well after an hour, and this statement is absolutely correct. If you really miss such a major event as the live broadcast, not only will Zhou Fang and her program team here in the TV station have to eat the top rows, but she and the telephone bureau will inevitably be scolded. If that's all it takes, that's fine, but if the above wants to find some scapegoat to calm down the incident, isn't the chief engineer of the telephone bureau ready-made?
