The Rebirth of the Internet Celebrity Godfather

The next day, nine o'clock in the morning.

Shonan Economic Television.

It’s another new day, and the workers who clock in to work have already begun to get busy.

Statistical data, recording programs, writing press releases, putting on stage makeup, answering the phone, making phone calls, and debugging machines.

On the TV station, everyone seemed to be on clockwork, with figures and frowns everywhere.

Chen Binghe looked serious. He was waiting for yesterday's ratings to come out.

Although he anticipated the worst-case scenario, he still couldn't help but harbor illusions in his heart.

Because this is his only life-saving straw!

He spent several years in Taili, going from youth to middle age.

He is not willing to give in!

Liu Le and Xiao Pingtou are also waiting. Unlike Chen Binghe, they are young and want to take the lead.

At this time, a bald middle-aged man walked in with a document in his hand and asked everyone to stop what they were doing.

This man who suddenly appeared was the director of Shonan Economic Television, Wang Cide.

Every morning, Wang Cide will hold a morning meeting to announce the ratings of all programs yesterday.

Ratings are a hard indicator to measure a program. Whether a program is good or not depends entirely on the ratings.

Moreover, ratings also determine the fate of a program.

The reason why "Hunan Fashion" is rumored to be canceled is because it has been at the bottom of the ratings since its launch and is unbeatable.

Not only is it a waste of the station's funds, but viewers often call to complain that the program is vulgar.

Seeing the ratings table in the hands of the station director, Chen Binghe was both looking forward to it and feeling anxious.

At this time, he felt a cold gaze. Chen Binghe looked over and found Zhao Xiaowei looking at him with a sneer.

Zhao Xiaowei is only in his thirties, and a few years ago he was just a small front-line reporter in Taiwan.

At an event held in Taili, his speech was heard by the director of the station, Wang Cide. Wang Cide greatly praised him and appointed him as his assistant.

In the past few years since he became an assistant, he formed cliques, eliminated dissidents, and made the stage a mess.

Because he had an old grudge with Chen Binghe when he was a reporter, Zhao Xiaowei has been suppressing Chen Binghe.

This time, it was his idea to put "The Same Boy" in the "Hunan Province Fashion" program.

If you don’t get it, you will destroy it!

Wang Cide cleared his throat and said, "Let me read out yesterday's ratings ranking."

"First place, "Economic News"."

"Economic News" is to ETV TV what "News Network" is to CCTV. It is the foundation of the establishment. It is not a rare thing to be ranked first. It is rare when it is not ranked first.

"Second place, "Douba Douba Street"."

In Baidu's words: "Douba Douba Street" is the first large-scale daily sitcom in China.

It is only broadcast on Economic TV Station.

It has been broadcast for two years since its launch in 2014 and has accumulated a large number of loyal viewers.

Especially those who have elderly people at home like to watch this program and watch other coughs.

Even if I am busy, I have to turn on the TV as background sound and listen to the familiar faces on the TV laughing and cursing, which makes me feel happy and friendly.

It has become a lifestyle habit.

"Third place, "Hunan Fashion"."

As soon as his words fell, he immediately caused an uproar.

Even the person in charge of the "Hunan Fashion" program and the editorial team were fooled.

Don't even look at me, I don't know!

The men were all in ruins waiting to be cut down, so why did they suddenly become third?

Are you the son of destiny?

"Director, did you see it wrong?"

Wang Cide said angrily: "What did you see wrong? What did you see wrong? I found that some people just can't watch other people's programs get better."

Wang Cide raised his head and asked: "Which program are you from?"

"Uh.", the man said awkwardly, "I am from the program "Hunan Fashion"."

Well, everyone in my program team thinks the data is fake.

Wang Cide was also speechless. How the hell should I answer this?

"Puff——"

Some little girls couldn't help but burst out laughing.

After this incident, everyone doubted the authenticity of this third place.

Let's not talk about how awesome your "Hunan Province Fashion" program is. Let's talk about "Hunan Province Hot Spot". As the flagship self-produced program of Economic TV Station, a lot of manpower, material and financial resources have been invested in it.

And the broadcast time is still during the prime time at 6:30 every night.

How can you compare with others if your broadcast time is at 3pm?

The key point is, you have really compared yourself to others. Are you saying that it's not too far off?

I didn’t even notice what big move you made in "Hunan Fashion"! Why did you suddenly go from being weak to being a pillar holding the sky?

Fake, absolutely fake!

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Only a few people who knew the inside story exchanged glances, and their hearts sank to the bottom.

Among them, there is Zhao Xiaowei.

He has watched "The Same Boy" and was shocked at first glance. It has high intentions, three correct views, and has the potential to be a big hit.

It can be said that it is very suitable as a benchmark for publicity. If it works well, it can even trigger certain discussions across the entire network.

However, this "Same Boy" happened to be in the hands of Chen Binghe!

He would rather let it sink than let Chen Binghe have a chance to recover.

However, he never expected that without any publicity in the early stage, and placed in a program like "Hunan Fashion", which is the last one in the industry, it would also come to the fore and single-handedly make "Hunan Fashion" a hit.

The ratings reached third place.

How is it done?

Simply incredible!

Is "The Same Boy" really that good?!

But no matter how provocative it is, it’s hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice!

Chen Binghe suddenly asked: "Director, what is the ratings curve?"

The ratings curve shows the numerical value of the ratings at each time point.

Wang Cide said: "The ratings peaked from 3:21 to 3:26. Within four minutes, they were almost twice as high as other time periods. They started to decline from 3:26 to the end of the program.

, the ratings are only 30% higher than usual.”

Chen Binghe suddenly understood!

The broadcast time of "The Same Boy" is from 3:21 to 3:24, which perfectly matches the changes in the ratings curve.

It’s certain that it’s all thanks to “The Same Boy”!

Liu Le and Xiao Pingtou were also extremely excited! They wished they could cheer on the spot.

Chen Binghe said again: "Director, can I explain?"

Wang Cide seemed to know something and said with a smile: "Explain it."

Chen Binghe said: "Colleagues, I can guarantee the authenticity of this rating. In addition to the efforts of the editorial team of "Hunan Fashion", another important factor is the external source material of one of them. This external source material is mine

I went to Shonan University of Science and Technology with my two apprentices to take the photos. After the meeting, interested colleagues can contact me. I believe everyone will believe what I say after seeing this material."

After he finished speaking, Wang Cide announced the ratings of the following programs.

But after the big bomb "Hunan Fashion" came out, no one cared about it anymore.

Zhao Xiaowei looked at Chen Binghe's proud face, feeling unwilling and angry in his heart.

He still couldn't accept this fact because it was so contrary to common sense.

However, he then thought in his mind that this material was just a flash in the pan. After all, Chen Binghe was a rootless person. It didn't matter if he let this lucky guy be proud for a while. Sooner or later, his true identity would be exposed. When the time comes, he would be even more embarrassed.

He was making vicious calculations in his mind.

Suddenly, he heard the director's voice.

Wang Cide said to Chen Binghe: "Yesterday the editor-in-chief of the Hunan Province Times called me and wanted to interview Xiangnan University of Science and Technology. You have already been there once and you are familiar with the situation. You can take the reporters from the Hunan Province Times and go there again.

In addition, you can communicate with the column team of "Economic Explosion" and conduct an exclusive interview."

Chen Binghe said: "Okay, Director!"

After explaining the matter, Wang Cide left.

Chen Binghe also went to communicate with the column team of "Economic News" about the exclusive interview.

When passing by Zhao Xiaowei, Chen Binghe suddenly wanted to hit him. He leaned into Zhao Xiaowei's ear:

"Do you know why the ratings of "Hunan Fashion" reached third place without any publicity?"

"Why?"

"Because in that material, the college student who appeared at the end is a big internet celebrity with three million fans on the Internet. You can search for his name. His name is Cheng Yi."

Zhao Xiaowei opened his mouth wide and froze on the spot.

Three million on the entire network?

In 2016, Tanzhou City had a population of more than 10 million, while Liancheng had a population of less than 3 million.

This is equivalent to the population of a prefecture-level city.

If all his fans respond to his call, let alone being ranked third in the ratings, he can easily get the first place!

Chen Binghe Shi Shiran left.

In fact, he said a million more, but who cares?

Maybe, for Cheng Yi, reaching one million fans is just a matter of seconds.
