Chapter 436 434. Ganxi Satellite TV? What's this

There is such a province, located in the center of the southeast and on the edge of the Yangtze River, with a large population!

but……

It just has no sense of existence and no development.

The surrounding provinces are all booming.

This is Ganxi Province.

Similarly, Ganxi TV station is also the TV station with the least sense of existence, even worse than the TV stations in the northwest and southeast!

but……

When Zhou Zhihong, the producer of Ganxi TV Station and the cultural tourism program Great Beauty Ganxi, received a call from Rubik's Cube Entertainment, he was a little confused when he heard what the other party said!

"You mean, Wang Cheng accepted the announcement of our program? Is it the announcement invitation sent to you by our station?"

Zhou Zhihong asked with certainty.

The caller was Shen Shenghui's assistant, who said affirmatively: "Yes, Mr. Zhou! Wang Cheng's time is very tight, so we will only give you two days to produce a program, whether it is recorded or live broadcast! The notification fee needs to be paid in advance.”

A trace of doubt flashed in Zhou Zhihong's eyes.

Isn't this a scammer?

He knew that the station had sent an invitation to Rubik's Cube Entertainment in the name of the program he produced, and he wanted to join in the fun, and he also offered a super high price of one billion in advertising fees for a single issue!

but……

He knew very well that this was an invitation from Taili Zhongzai to participate. He just saw that the ratings of Central Plains TV, Hunan Satellite TV, Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV, Dragon TV, Beijing Satellite TV, as well as CCTV and Wang Cheng's cooperation have been rising, so he was jealous. I just joined in the fun and never thought that Rubik's Cube Entertainment would agree.

After all, Ganxi Satellite TV has not invited big-name stars to collaborate for many years.

Or it can be said that big-name stars are almost never invited to collaborate.

It's rather pitiful to say the least.

Ganxi Satellite TV's flagship variety show is a mediation program that resolves family conflicts and disputes. The audience is over 50 years old. They like to watch aunts and uncles who have troubled parents. There are almost no young viewers.

Entertainment variety show?

It’s not that Ganxi TV didn’t try hard, but big-name stars didn’t join at all, and they tried and failed. They didn’t have more funds to make more attempts, so it failed.

Damei Ganxi is just a policy program. It has been produced for two years. It follows some tourist attractions in western Ganxi for filming and explanation. It also invites some local celebrities to cooperate. It is a bit similar to Zhongyuan Satellite TV’s Cultural Zhongyuan. The time is also 5 or 6 pm on weekdays, and the ratings are almost negligible.

He heard the news from several industry boss groups. CCTV, Hunan Satellite TV, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV, Dragon TV, Penguin Entertainment, etc., in order to compete with Wang Cheng, all offered Rubik's Cube Entertainment sky-high prices. This was not the case with other small TV stations. eligible to participate.

The only hope of many small TV stations is that if the contract renewal conflict between Wang Cheng and Rubik's Cube Entertainment breaks out again, maybe they will randomly choose a small TV station to put on the show?

However, that probability is relatively small.

Moreover, even if the conflict between Wang Cheng and Rubik's Cube Entertainment breaks out, if you want to choose a small TV station to suppress Wang Cheng, there will be more choices.

There are only a few big TV stations, but there are many small and unpopular TV stations. There are dozens of them across the country!

Why did you choose their Ganxi TV station?

After thinking for a while, Zhou Zhihong felt that the other party was a liar, and immediately said: "I know, are you going to send me an account later and let me transfer money to the account? Your words have not changed much."

Shen Shenghui's assistant on the opposite side was stunned for a moment, and immediately knew that the other party thought that he was a liar. He smiled and said: "Mr. Zhou, I am not a liar! I will not give you any account number. I am just informing you of the news. Please hurry up." Come to our company headquarters to sign the contract, and then pay the notification fee according to the contract account number!"

Forehead……?

Not a liar?

Zhou Zhihong immediately sat upright and asked seriously: "Are you sure?"

An affirmative voice came from the phone: "I'm sure!"

Zhou Zhihong: "When will you go to Rubik's Cube Entertainment Headquarters?"

"Today, after signing the contract, Wang Cheng will go to your TV station to produce programs tomorrow, so we hope you will hurry up. You only have two days, and this will also be written in the contract!"

The other party's answer didn't sound like a lie, and the other party didn't ask for any money. They just asked him to go to the Magic Cube Entertainment headquarters to sign a contract!

so……

Did Rubik's Cube Entertainment really choose their non-existent Ganxi TV station?

Or is he personally producing this cultural travel program with almost no ratings?

Zhou Zhihong was a little confused for a moment, with a trace of hesitation and anxiety flashing in his eyes.

Because, he knows that Taiwan has quoted Rubik's Cube Entertainment as a single-issue announcement fee of one billion!

However, Taili cannot get this money out at all.

In particular, Rubik's Cube Entertainment requires full payment immediately upon signing the contract, which leaves less than one day to raise money.

Even if we sell Ganxi TV Station immediately, we still won’t be able to get one billion...

However, Zhou Zhihong did not want to refuse such a good opportunity.

This is an opportunity to cooperate with Wang Cheng.

As long as Wang Cheng has appeared on variety shows, the ratings are guaranteed to be above four points!

How many years has it been since Ganxi Satellite TV had a four-point rating?

the answer is……

Never before.

Even in the golden age of television in the 1980s, Ganxi Satellite TV never had any TV series or variety shows with ratings above four points.

If Zhou Zhihong can produce a program with a ratings of more than four points, then he will have created history for Ganxi Satellite TV.

For this reason alone, spending one billion is worth it.

Of course, there is the most important point.

Zhou Zhihong is a loyal fan of Wang Cheng.

Although he is already forty years old, he likes every song and every poem written by Wang Cheng!

Now I have the opportunity to meet Wang Cheng, and also have the opportunity to co-produce a program with Wang Cheng.

Zhou Zhihong definitely doesn’t want to miss it.

So, after hesitating for a few seconds, Zhou Zhihong agreed directly: "Okay, thank you, I will take people to the Magic Cube Entertainment Headquarters as soon as possible!"

"Okay, Mr. Zhou, goodbye!"

"goodbye!"

Seeing that the other party hung up the phone so simply, Zhou Zhihong's suspicion disappeared completely. The other party did not mention the money at all, and everything would be discussed later when he went to the Rubik's Cube Entertainment headquarters.

With excitement flashing in his eyes, Zhou Zhihong took the phone and immediately called the station director Liu Haofeng.

The call was quickly connected, and station manager Liu Haofeng asked strangely: "Old Zhou, do you have something to do with me?"

Although Zhou Zhihong is the producer of Ganxi TV Station, he is just the producer of a policy program with no ratings. He just waits for retirement. He has never taken the initiative to find the leaders above, let alone the director of the station. Level one.

Therefore, Liu Haofeng was very surprised!

Zhou Zhihong said without any nonsense, "Director Liu, do you still remember what you told me yesterday about extending an invitation to Wang Cheng of Rubik's Cube Entertainment in the name of our program?"

Liu Haofeng said casually: "Yes, I remember, what's wrong? We didn't discuss this with you in advance. But it's just a formality, don't take it to heart."

Zhou Zhihong said excitedly: "Director Liu, I just received a call from Assistant Shen Shenghui of Rubik's Cube Entertainment. He said that Rubik's Cube Entertainment accepted our invitation! Let's go to their company headquarters in Magic City to sign the contract today, but we must sign the contract immediately after signing. If you pay the announcement fee in full, you can bring Wang Cheng back to produce the program tomorrow, which will give you two days in total."

Zhou Zhihong told all the information he knew at once.

Liu Haofeng, who was sitting across from him in the office, was stunned for a moment. His eyes widened with astonishment on his face. After a few seconds of silence, he asked blankly: "Are you sure you haven't encountered a scammer? You haven't been defrauded of money, right?" "

Liu Haofeng didn't believe it at all.

Wang Chenggang has created a peak ratings of 7.8 points on CCTV, with an average rating of over 6 points. All TV stations across the country are competing for Wang Cheng. Where can they get the turn of Ganxi TV Station, which has no sense of their presence?

Zhou Zhihong quickly replied: "I was not deceived, nor did I transfer money. The other party told me to go to their company headquarters in Shanghai. Director Liu, this is true. If you don't believe it, just call me and ask in person!" "

Liu Haofeng: "Okay, I'll call and ask!"

After saying that, Liu Haofeng hung up the phone.

He would not be at ease with such an important matter unless he confirmed it himself.

Therefore, Liu Haofeng immediately contacted the headquarters of Rubik's Cube Entertainment. After receiving a positive reply, he sat in his chair still a little dazed.

because……

He knew that there was no money in Taiwan.

Not to mention one billion.

Even if it's 100 million, he can't get it out for the time being.

Where can he collect one billion in one day?

Liu Haofeng was pleasantly surprised, but also under great pressure. He had a sad face and wanted to refuse Rubik's Cube Entertainment.

but……

He also didn't want to miss the opportunity to cooperate with Wang Cheng.

He does not ask for a ratings rating as high as CCTV's 7.8, which is as terrifying as CCTV's. If he is satisfied with a rating of 4 or above, he will be able to create the history of Ganxi Satellite TV. This is also an important political achievement during his tenure. Promotion in the future is almost certain.

Of course, he is also a fan of Wang Cheng, but he is not as loyal a fan as Zhou Zhihong. He simply likes Wang Cheng's calligraphy and literary works, and privately practices calligraphy on videos of Wang Cheng's writing.

Therefore, if there is an opportunity to cooperate with Wang Cheng and watch Wang Cheng write on the spot, Liu Haofeng will be willing to do so even if he loses everything.

But the problem now is that even if he is willing to spend all his money to support it and sell all his family assets and donate them to Taili, it will not be enough to raise one billion.

We can't let every staff member in the station donate money to Wang Cheng to pay for the announcement, right?

Then he may be complained about and step down immediately...

Buzz!

The phone rings.

Liu Haofeng picked it up and saw that it was Zhou Zhihong, and immediately connected the phone: "Old Zhou, I called to confirm, it is true! Rubik's Cube Entertainment did agree to our invitation. But, Old Zhou, you know what we are doing now In such a situation, we can’t afford the one billion notification fee!”

Liu Haofeng did not hide anything or talk nonsense. He directly talked about the current situation in the station. He also knew that Zhou Zhihong knew this clearly.

Zhou Zhihong said quickly: "Director, the money in our station is definitely not enough. However, we can apply and ask for it from the province!"

Liu Haofeng was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean? It's not the time yet, right?"

It’s the end of the year, and it’s time to settle accounts at the end of the year. It’s time to apply for a budget next year!

Zhou Zhihong: "Director, we are doing a travel program. How popular is Wang Cheng? If he comes to our travel program, will it make our tourist attractions popular? And also make more people pay attention to our province? This is Everyone can enjoy the benefits, I think the leaders above also hope that Wang Cheng can come over to produce the program, right?"

"So, I think if you contact the above immediately, there is a high probability that you can apply for funds!"

Zhou Zhihong has been doing travel programs for two years and has dealt with many local governments, so he knows how to get money.

Ganxi Province has always had little sense of existence.

Now Wang Cheng has brought such a large wave of traffic!

Who is not jealous, who is willing to miss it?

Compared with this, the announcement fee of one billion is actually not much!

Of course, he also knew that their TV station got a bargain. According to rumors, CCTV, Xiangnan TV, Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV, Dragon TV, etc. all offered prices well over one billion.

Therefore, the bargain hit them, and they absolutely cannot miss it.

Otherwise, it will really be impossible to eat even if God gives us food.

Liu Haofeng thought for a moment, his eyes getting brighter and brighter: "Okay, Lao Zhou, you have a good idea. I will contact you now. No, you pack up now, and we will go for a run."

Zhou Zhihong: "Okay, I'll prepare some materials and let's go together!"

hang up the phone.

Zhou Zhihong immediately made a report on the ratings trend of all Wang Cheng's programs. He also made a report on the works Wang Cheng wrote when he was producing programs on Central Plains TV, as well as the current situation of Central Plains TV!

Of course, there is also the cooperation between Jiangsu and Zhejiang West Lake City and Wang Cheng to use the poem "The First Sunny Day in West Lake" as the West Lake's business card, attracting many tourists to West Lake!

These are all Suzai!

Half an hour later, the two quickly set off for the leadership office of Ganxi Province.

Then……

Two hours later, the two walked out excitedly.

Liu Haofeng said excitedly: "I didn't expect it to go so smoothly and that the superiors would pay so much attention to Wang Cheng."

Zhou Zhihong smiled and said: "This shows that the leaders above are also very concerned about external affairs. They know how much traffic Wang Cheng has now and what Wang Cheng can bring. Therefore, we definitely don't want to miss this opportunity. We When did Ganxi TV Station and Ganxi Province attract national attention?"

"As long as we do it well, we may attract a big wave of traffic this time!"

Liu Haofeng also said with a smile on his face: "As mentioned above, if you have any difficulties, you can ask them, and they will try their best to help us solve it. Lao Zhou, you are the producer, tell me, do you have any difficulties?"

Zhou Zhihong: "That's true. Director Liu, you know how popular CCTV's programs are, right? We can imitate the model of cooperation between CCTV and Wang Cheng. The program will be broadcast live, and we will also invite teachers and students from famous schools, or Literary figures who graduated from prestigious schools come to participate in the show!"

"In our name, we may not be able to invite you. Can the higher-ups help?"

Liu Haofeng thought for a while: "Okay, I'll call and apply later."

They never thought that Wang Cheng would really come back, so they were completely unprepared.

At this time, we can only think of program plans in a hurry!

The best shortcut is to follow the path of the successful people before you.

but……

Liu Haofeng and Zhou Zhihong underestimated their current charm.

In other words, they underestimated Wang Cheng's charm.

In the afternoon, when they were preparing to leave for Magic City.

The news that Wang Cheng is about to cooperate with Ganxi Satellite TV has been spread by interested people. It is no longer a secret among the upper circles of the entertainment industry.

so!

Zhou Zhihong's phone kept ringing.

Several leaders of Ganxi Satellite TV, as well as some famous producers, etc., all received calls from the agents of some big shots in the entertainment industry.

There is only one requirement for these calls——

Asked to produce a program with Wang Cheng.

There is no notification fee!

Just ask to join the group.

The entire Ganxi Satellite TV was a little confused and excited.

When had they ever been sought after by so many big guys?

Zhou Zhihong wanted to agree to them all, and there would be no notice fee anyway. The popularity and traffic would be free, so why not give them up?

However, Liu Haofeng rejected them all!

"After signing the contract, let's talk to Wang Cheng. These people are here for Wang Cheng. We have to take care of Wang Cheng's feelings."

Liu Haofeng said this.

Then, Ganxi Satellite TV rejected all requests to join the show.

Later, Liu Haofeng personally took Zhou Zhihong to the Magic City and arrived at the headquarters of Rubik's Cube Entertainment.

As soon as we arrived at the headquarters of Rubik's Cube Entertainment...

Both Liu Haofeng and Zhou Zhihong felt great pressure.

Because Qin Shangran, Li Guang, Zhang Huizhong, Wu Tong, Liu Jiahui and others have not left yet. When they saw a group of people from Ganxi Satellite TV coming over, their eyes were fixed on Liu Haofeng and others, wishing they could evaporate these people with their eyes. They will have a chance to compete for Wang Cheng again.

Qin Shangran and Li Guang were really unhappy.

They fought fiercely and the price was astronomically high.

In the end, it was snatched away by a non-existent Ganxi TV...

How can they bear this?

This is an opportunity for the ratings to break 8.

However, Qin Shangran thought for a moment, his expression softened a little, and the eyes he stared at Liu Haofeng and the others were no longer so sharp.

Because, he believes that there is still a chance for the ratings to break 8!

Because, he did not believe that Ganxi Satellite TV could achieve a ratings rating above eight points.

Even if Ganxi Satellite TV can cooperate with Wang Cheng.

However, based on the foundation of Ganxi Satellite TV, even if Wang Cheng joins, the ratings will never reach eight points. It would be great to break five.

There is a high probability that it may be more than four points, reaching Wang Cheng's lowest level!

so!

After the cooperation between Wang Cheng and Ganxi Satellite TV is over, Qin Shangran still has the opportunity to take Wang Cheng away and bring him to CCTV to compete for the opportunity to break the eight-point ratings.

Next to them, Li Guang, Wu Tong, and Zhang Huizhong gradually understood, and their eyes softened.

Liu Haofeng personally came over to shake hands with them one by one, and each of them smiled back.

"Director Qin, nice to meet you, nice to meet you! I watched the whole show of yours yesterday, it was so exciting."

"Director Li, the last musician program you hosted with Wang Cheng was definitely the most professional and exciting music program!"

"Director Zhang..."

"..."

Liu Haofeng lowered his posture, as if he was not the director of a provincial TV station, and greeted several people one by one.

It was hard for several people to target Liu Haofeng again.

A few pleasantries were exchanged.

Liu Haofeng and others signed a contract with Shen Shenghui and others.

Then, Rubik's Cube Entertainment and Ganxi Satellite TV released this news to the outside world at the same time!

The entire entertainment industry, as well as many Wang Cheng fans and all passers-by, were shocked.

Ganxi Satellite TV...

What's this?
