My wife is a big star

"Teacher Chen, I heard that you have returned to China?"

"Just came back yesterday."

Chen Ran was not surprised how Tang Ming knew about it. The company cooperated closely with the TV station. There were many people from the TV station in the program team. Everyone there knew about it, so it was not unusual to pass it on.

The two of them chatted for a while. They were all old acquaintances and always had some small talk. After a while, they mentioned the new show.

Chen Ran said: "Director Hu's team director should know."

"I must know that their "Happy Challenge" and "Celebrity Detective" are hit shows."

Even if he didn't know it before, Tang Ming knew it clearly the moment he joined Chen Ran's company.

"They were doing in-studio variety shows before, and there are also some new colleagues who have joined, so I plan to let them do the programs they are good at to build a team."

"Variety show in the studio?"

"Similar to "Happy Challenge." Chen Ran explained.

Tang Ming paused for a moment and asked, "Teacher Chen, is there any hope that the new show will become a hit?"

Chen Ran suddenly laughed, "Director, how do you ask me to answer this? The program has not yet been shadowed, and the planning has not been completed yet. Who knows what will happen then. I can only guarantee that it will not be too bad, but there are so many hits. Director Nan also knows."

"That's for other people."

"Director, you think highly of me. I'm just like everyone else. I have two eyes, one nose, and one mouth. How can I know if the show will be popular when it starts airing?"

Chen Ran is not modest. If he is talking about whether he can be popular and whether he can maintain his capital, he can be sure of it.

But it’s a bit difficult to make a hit.

Even though he has done so many hit shows, there is no guarantee that his new shows will be loved by the audience. He can only try his best to work in this direction.

"This..." Tang Ming hesitated for a moment, then said, "Is Mr. Chen in the company?"

"I'll go to the program set tomorrow to have a look."

"The King of Comedy" is preparing to take off quickly. It is already familiar with the routine, and there are no surprises. It has already been recorded for two episodes.

Chen Ran had left it alone for so long, so he had to go take a look no matter what.

Tang Ming said: "Okay, I happen to be going to Huahai tomorrow. Let's meet up then."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Ran chewed on Director Tang's tone just now and felt it was a bit strange.

The ratings of "My Date with a Zombie" are soaring, and Rainbow TV's shortcomings are gradually being made up for. Logically speaking, he should be happy, but his tone just now was a bit anxious.

Chen Ran couldn't figure it out and didn't think about it. He would naturally find out when we meet tomorrow.

He continued the meeting to discuss the new project with everyone.

Wang Hong looked at Chen Ran and felt a little emotional.

Last year, Chen Ran left Zhaonan Satellite TV. They felt aggrieved for Chen Ran and confused by his decision.

After all, it was such a pity that a popular show like "I Am a Singer" had just been produced, and it was just handed over to others when it left.

However, he never thought that when he met Chen Ran again, it would be the time to join his company.

We were colleagues who worked together at the TV station last year, but now our relationship has changed, and it feels like everything is unpredictable.

Hearing Chen Ran mention the new project, Wang Hong sorted out his mood and put aside all distracting thoughts.

Didn't they join Chen Ran's company just for better development and better programs?

…

Zhang family, Director Zhang and his wife just came back from outside.

"That deputy director you met outside just now, was the one who drove Chen Ran away?"

"Yes, that's him." Director Zhang nodded.

He didn't expect to meet Liang Yuan and Ma Wenlong when he went out, so he could only say hello.

Aunt Yun said: "It seems that the deer-headed rat is not a good person after all."

Director Zhang thought about it carefully. Although Liang Yuan was not good at work, he was not bad in appearance. He was the deputy director after all. How could he see the deer-headed and rat-like eyes?

However, his wife was trying to defend Chen Ran, so he didn't say anything else. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's not mention him. If they hadn't forced Chen Ran away, Chen Ran wouldn't have opened a company, and now he's still working with the TV station." There is no current development."

Aunt Yun said: "Is it possible that we still need to thank him?"

"That's not necessary." Director Zhang said: "He has also been unlucky recently. Chen Ran's previous program was a big hit, suppressing Zhaonan TV's programs. The higher-ups think this is all the responsibility of Deputy Director Liang. So if you bear the punishment, your power will be reduced."

"It was originally his responsibility. If he hadn't driven Chen Ran away, where would these things have happened? It might have made your TV station a better place. This punishment is well deserved." Aunt Yun heard that Liang Yuan was unlucky. , and feel more comfortable.

Director Zhang chuckled and gave his wife a thumbs up, "The leaders above think so too. It seems you still have the potential to be a leader."

"Come on, I know how much I weigh." Aunt Yun didn't accept this trick.

"Harm, it depends on what you said." Director Zhang said: "We won't mention it outside, but inside our family, you are the well-deserved leader."

Aunt Yun glanced at her husband, wondering why this guy had become so thick-skinned. What he said in this tone made her feel weird.

"Okay, okay, don't put a high hat on me and ask Chen Ran where they are."

"I understand, leader." Director Zhang chuckled.

"Poor." Aunt Yun said angrily, carrying the dishes into the kitchen.

Director Zhang sat on the sofa, took out his mobile phone and made a call. When he heard that Chen Ran and Zhang Fanzhi were on the road, he told them to concentrate on driving, and then hung up the phone.

He looked at the wine bottle on the wine cabinet, thought about it, put it away, and put it in the package.

He glanced at it with a bit of reluctance and muttered: "I'll take you to Lao Chen another day, so you don't have to worry about it here."

…

Chen Ran felt like he was back home with the Zhang family, without any sense of restraint.

Before he met Zhang Fanzhi, he had a good relationship with Director Zhang and his wife, and now they are as close as a family.

Eat happily at the dinner table and talk happily.

"I heard that your company is preparing a new program?" Director Zhang asked.

Chen Ran smiled and said: "It was just decided in a meeting today, how come I know about it already?"

"People from the TV station speculated that a new team has joined to prepare for the new program."

"This was the intention in the previous recruitment."

"Can the company handle several programs at the same time?"

"Directors Ye and Hu are both old people in the industry. I have worked with them before and have rich experience. There are no problems."

Director Zhang nodded. Now many people in the industry are staring at Chen Ran and want to know what program he will do next. Director Zhang is naturally curious as well.

"The Voice of China" has brought their company to the top, but for Chen Ran, no one can tell where his limit is.

When "I Am a Singer" was released, many people thought that this was Chen Ran's peak, but what about now?

"The initial plan is to make an ordinary studio variety show and let the team get used to it first." Chen Ran satisfied Director Zhang's curiosity.

Director Zhang shook his head and said, "That will probably disappoint a lot of people."

Chen Ran smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether they are disappointed or not, just follow the company's procedures."

"Indeed, it's not a show for them, so there's no need to live in their eyes." Director Zhang nodded and said, "You have a very good attitude."

Some people have achieved great results and constantly want to surpass their own achievements, which invisibly puts pressure on themselves, which is counterproductive.

It's a good mentality to have like Chen Ran.

Is this probably the reason why after one year of "I Am a Singer", the phenomenal program "The Voice of China" was produced?

These are all Director Zhang's guesses. Whether it is true or not is unknown.

When Chen Ran was about to go home, Director Zhang suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute."

With that said, he ran into the house and came out with a bottle of wine.

This wine bottle looked familiar to Chen Ran. Isn't it Director Zhang's most precious bottle?

I usually keep it on the wine cabinet and I never want to drink it.

He had left it when he was in the old house, and he took it over himself when he moved.

Not to mention Chen Ran, even Zhang Fanzhi was a little dazed. He turned around and glanced at the wine cabinet and found that the place where the bottle of wine was originally placed was empty.

"This wine is quite good. I have always been reluctant to drink it. But now I have stopped drinking. You can take it back and try it."

"Uncle, this..."

Chen Ran was a little at a loss.

It wasn't until Zhang Fanzhi rubbed his hand that he realized that Director Zhang was still holding the wine.

"Just take it." Aunt Yun also advised: "It's not a valuable thing."

Chen Ran finally took the wine, nodded and said, "Thank you, uncle."

"It's just a bottle of wine, what are you grateful for?" Director Zhang waved his hand.

"Uncle, aunt, I have to go to Huahai tomorrow, so I'll leave first and come back to accompany you another day."

"Okay, okay, it's getting late, you can go back."

"..."

Zhang Fanzhi sent Chen Ran down and followed him out the door.

Chen Ran picked up the wine and said, "Why did uncle take down this wine? Isn't he always very precious to it?"

Zhang Fanzhi asked: "Is wine more important than me?"

This sentence was a bit abrupt. Chen Ran didn't turn around. He thought about it for a moment before coming back. His precious daughter was given to him, let alone a bottle of wine.

Chen Ran stared at the wine for a moment and asked, "Do you think this is daughter's red?"

Zhang Fanzhi said nothing and just rolled his eyes at him.

In the house at this time.

Aunt Yun didn't have the same expression as before, but frowned and said, "Don't you treasure this wine? Why did you give it to Chen Ran?"

"I've given up drinking, haven't I? I'll let it go." Director Zhang said with a smile.

Aunt Yun looked at him, "You said it, just leave it alone."

Director Zhang shook his head and said: "I just quit, but the glutton is still there. I'm afraid that one day I can't help but drink it. Isn't that disobeying the leader?"

Aunt Yun choked a little when she knew her husband still remembered his talk just now, "You drink a little occasionally, and I'll pretend to turn a blind eye, as long as it doesn't go too far."

"No, I want to live a few more years."

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"That's not true. I still want to see Zhizhi and Chen Ran's children grow up, and I want to hear them call me grandpa. If I don't want to, I won't."

"..."

…

When Chen Ran arrived in Huahai, Ye Yuanhua had just finished editing the new program.

It seems that he is quite tired and his complexion is not as good as before.

"Thank you, Director Ye."

Chen Ran said this sincerely.

"It's not hard work. The work intensity used to be higher than this, so it's okay." Ye Yuanhua said with a smile.

After all, he himself feels that he is not as tough as before.

Of course, for the work you love, no matter how hard it is, you will feel happy doing it.

"Director Tang is here today. Teacher Chen, you should also watch the show."

Chen Ran had been involved in several programs in the past, and he was very satisfied with the results. Now he was alone, and he didn't know what kind of answer he could deliver.

Chen Ran nodded and came here to take a look today.

On the way, Ye Yuanhua asked:

"What type is the company's new program?"

"A program similar to "Happy Challenge", where the team gets to work together first."

Ye Yuanhua nodded and said, "Director Hu is good at this kind of program."

He laughed again, "It's good to have them. Our company can produce new programs. Now I don't know how many people are waiting for new programs to appear."

Chen Ran waved his hand and said: "Ignore them, what kind of program we do is our business."

"That's true."

After chatting with Ye Yuanhua, Chen Ran went to see "The King of Comedy" with him when Tang Ming came over.

Just like what Chen Ran said, the best part of this show is the work of each comedian.

The format itself is pretty good and doesn’t need to be changed much.

Ye Yuanhua watched the editing with him last year, and there hasn't been much change this year.

"Director, how do you feel?"

"very good!"

Tang Ming even feels that this year's "The King of Comedy" is even better than last year.

And because the preparation speed is faster, it can even start broadcasting in advance.

Ye Yuanhua was finally relieved.

He also feels that overall this year is better than last year, probably because several comedy companies are paying more attention to the program.

It's not just him who feels relieved, Chen Ran feels the same way. This way he can completely let go of the show, whether it's making a new show or getting married, there will be enough time.

…

In the restaurant.

Chen Ran and Tang Ming ate together.

He asked: "Director, did you have anything to say on the phone?"

Tang Ming looked at Chen Ran, paused and then asked: "Teacher Chen, what do you think of our Rainbow TV now?"

Chen Ran wondered if he would join the TV station again, right?

He never thought about this.

Opening your own company always gives you a lot of freedom.

He thought for a while and said truthfully: "The prospects are very good. We have done well in variety shows before, but there are shortcomings. Now the ratings of TV series have increased. If we can fill in the shortcomings, we will be no worse than Zhaonan TV and other TV stations."

Tang Ming asked again: "Does Mr. Chen think we have a chance to win the first satellite TV?"

Chen Ran said: "Although the performance of variety shows is good, the TV series are relatively poor. At present, there is only "I Have a Date with a Zombie", which is not enough to make up for the gap. If we can make up for this shortcoming in the next few years, it will be possible. .”

"What about this year?"

Tang Ming asked again.

"This year?" Chen Ran raised his eyebrows slightly, "I'm afraid this year's hope is not too great."

Speaking of this, Chen Ran finally understood why Tang Ming's tone was weird.

I actually want to compete for the No. 1 TV spot this year.
