Chapter 192 The Ratings Are Out

Liang Hong actually didn't expect that Weibo on Wednesday would be so lively.

After taking a few glances, I found that most of them were people like her who came to Weibo to find answers out of curiosity.

There isn't even a fixed topic.

But under many other topics, you can find similar questions from netizens:

"Did anyone watch Where Are We Going, Dad tonight?"

"Why do I think tonight's variety show on Mango Channel is so interesting?"

"Jimei ladies, are there any people like me who are watching "Where Are We Going, Dad" tonight?"

"..."

In addition to these questions, more people flocked to the official Weibo of "Where Are We Going, Dad" and the official WeChat account of Mango Channel to start heated discussions.

"Hahaha, I almost died laughing when these dads were cooking."

"You're laughing so silly, okay? Especially Lin Shaopeng, he's not making noodles, he's making gnocchi."

"And Lu Zhengguo, the last bowl of flour is probably enough for twenty people, right? Goose goose~~~"

"I learned today that behind the glamor of celebrities, they are no different from us ordinary people."

"It's still interesting to see these cute kids, and I made my aunt laugh the whole time."

"Indeed, they are so cute. Every baby surprises me."

"I was a little disgusted with Jiang Xintong at first, but later I realized that this little girl is a treasure girl."

"Haha, me too. I was so angry at Jiang Xintong's laughter tonight."

"Oh my god, it's been many years since I've been so fascinated by a variety show."

"Can you believe it? Our whole family is watching this variety show together tonight."

"Damn, my family is like that too. Especially my mom and my sister. They never watched variety shows before, but tonight they watched "Where Are We Going, Dad" and they made us laugh out loud."

"..."

There have been thousands of similar comments.

Especially now that the show is over, the comments are rising faster and faster.

This kind of scene.

Many netizens hanging out on Weibo looked confused.

what's the situation?

"Where Are We Going, Dad"?

A variety show aired on Wednesday has so many positive reviews?

Are you sure it's not a brush?

If the key is brushes, just one or two thousand comments won't make any waves.

However, when netizens were confused, many people in the industry saw this situation, and their hearts began to beat for no reason.

Because they investigated the details of some netizens who left comments and found that they were all real netizens and not trolls hired by some program at all.

But the more this happens, the faster the hearts of people in the industry will beat.

A variety show that airs during off-peak hours on Wednesdays.

A variety show that was temporarily withdrawn from sponsors.

A variety show with little publicity and promotion.

There were so many positive comments after it was aired?

Even at a glance, there are almost no bad reviews!

It should be noted that "Let's Go Camping", which won the ratings championship last Sunday, also received many bad reviews!

Many people felt nervous and began to take out their mobile phones and made calls one by one.

…

Mango station.

Generally speaking, when a popular variety show premieres, there are several staff members monitoring real-time data in the backend data monitoring center.

Just like last year's Spring Festival Gala, in order to monitor real-time ratings, even the director stayed in the monitoring room.

Because of this crucial event or variety show broadcast, every data is crucial.

However, on this Wednesday night, the monitoring center was deserted, with only one staff member working the night shift.

The staff member’s name is Xu Bo.

After all the other colleagues left, Xu Bo glanced at the various data and found that there was no problem. Then I opened Mango TV on my mobile phone and started watching dramas.

When "Where Are We Going, Dad" premiered at eight o'clock in the evening, Xu Bo subconsciously glanced at the data curve again.

"Real-time viewership, 0.13%."

Xu Bo nodded.

This ratings is no different from the ratings of other Wednesday programs, and it is also in line with the deserted characteristics of Wednesdays.

"With such low ratings, no wonder the station moved this program to Wednesday. It seems that the first sponsor was very prescient to temporarily leave."

Xu Bo muttered.

Then the drama continued.

He was watching a police drama that was recently aired on Mango Channel. Xu Bo soon fell into the plot and forgot about the passage of time.

It wasn't until he finished watching the two latest episodes that he was satisfied and raised his head.

Then he turned his head and glanced at the data chart on the computer.

"Um?"

Xu Bo rubbed his eyes, feeling that he was dazzled by looking at his phone for too long.

After a moment, he looked at the data intently.

The next second.

Xu Bo was so excited that he almost jumped up from his chair. His pupils became larger: "Is there a bug in the data?"

He quickly began to check various software and hardware, and finally found that there was nothing wrong with it.

But if it's not a data bug.

That……

At this moment, Xu Bo's heart was trembling, and his eyes were fixed on the data on the computer screen.

After a few seconds, he suppressed his trembling heart and dialed the supervisor's number. His voice was trembling: "Master... Supervisor, something is wrong..."

But without saying anything, the supervisor hung up the phone.

He quickly called back, but this time the supervisor hung up immediately and replied with a message: "I'm in a meeting. If you have anything to do, I'll talk about it after the meeting."

Meeting?

Only then did Xu Bo remember that in the past few days, everyone on the station seemed to be nervous because the ratings of "Collision of Two Generations" were not as good as those of Tomato Channel's variety show "Let's Go Camping."

The variety show department has held meetings for three consecutive days.

As a middle-level leader, the supervisor was also called over. Go early and come back late every day.

Xu Bo originally wanted to wait until the meeting was over before reporting the matter to his supervisor, but he looked at the data on the computer and thought about the content of the supervisor's meeting tonight. He couldn't sit still, gritted his teeth, and printed out a few important pieces of data. When he came out, he rushed out of the door without hesitation and rushed to the conference room.

…

Mango Terrace, high-rise conference room.

Xiao Jiangxu glanced at the time. It was already ten o'clock in the evening. There was deep exhaustion in his eyes.

The meeting lasted for three days.

However, everyone still has not discussed any good countermeasures. Judging from the current situation, Mango Channel's "Collision of Two Generations" is destined to be crushed by Tomato Channel's "Let's Go Camping".

He sighed in his heart and said in a deep voice: "That's it for today. Let's go back and think about it carefully to see if there is any way to reverse the decline. At the same time, people were sent to make initial contact with Canxing Culture. This time the variety show ratings If the rate is not good enough, it seems that we have to officially consider cooperating with Canxing Culture..."

The words have not yet fallen.

Boom, boom, boom!

There was a knock on the conference room door.

Xiao Jiangxu frowned. He had already said that he could not be disturbed during the meeting. Who could be so indifferent.

Fortunately, the meeting is over now, otherwise he would definitely get angry if he was in a bad mood.

"Come in."

He spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man rushed in from outside. The young man was sweating profusely. He waved a few pieces of paper in his hand. After looking around for a week, he showed an expression of surprise: "Supervisor, it's urgent. Take a look at this!"

Uh-huh!

The eyes of dozens of senior executives in the conference room were all fixed on the supervisor named Cai Rui.

When Cai Rui saw the young man, his expression became extremely ugly. Now when he heard the other person's cry, his face turned dark, and he quickly squeezed out a smile: "Mr. Tang, I'm sorry, please leave it to me."

After saying that, he walked quickly to the young man and shouted in a low voice: "Xu Bo, what's the matter with you? Didn't I ask you to wait until the meeting is over before you talk to me? This is a high-level meeting, and you just rushed in like this, What words!"

Xu Bo gasped and said, "Director, it's urgent."

Cai Rui snorted: "What urgent matter is more important than our meeting?"

Xu Bo ignored the explanation and handed over the printed data sheet: "Look."

"What are you looking at? You..."

Cai Rui's voice stopped suddenly.

The next second, his eyes widened.

After reading several pieces of paper for several days, Cai Rui said in a trembling voice: "Is this data correct?"

Xu Bo nodded vigorously: "It's absolutely true!"

Cai Rui stood there, stunned for several seconds, and then rushed towards Xiao Jiangxu in the center of the conference room with a speed even more urgent than that of Xu Bo just now.

now.

Because the meeting was over, everyone began to leave the conference room one after another.

Seeing Cai Rui's appearance, everyone was filled with doubts as to what was going on.

Xiao Jiangxu looked at Cai Rui who was running towards him with the same confusion, frowned and said, "Director Cai, what's the matter?"

Cai Rui took a few deep breaths to calm his violently beating heart, then handed over the data chart in his hand and said in as clear a voice as possible: "Mr. Xiao, the new variety show "Where Are We Going, Dad" will be premiered tonight. , when the initial ratings were only 0.13%, it finally achieved an average ratings of 0.613."

Xiao Jiangxu's originally wrinkled expression suddenly became dull.

All the other senior executives who heard Cai Rui's words froze.

The conference room became deathly silent.

A full dozen seconds passed.

Xiao Jiangxucai asked in a voice suspicious of life: "What...what did you say?"

Cai Rui pointed at the data chart and said excitedly: "Mr. Xiao, the ratings of "Where Are We Going, Dad" exploded tonight, with an incredible rating of over 0.6%."

Only then did Xiao Jiangxu confirm that he heard correctly. He took the data chart from Cai Rui and looked at it several times.

Looking at the shocking words [Rating: 0.613%] on the paper, he felt like his brain was roaring.

"This this……"

How can it be?

real or fake?

You know, "The Collision of Two Generations", which their Mango Channel spent a lot of money to create, had high hopes for, and was broadcast during prime time, only got a ratings of 0.572%.

And now, the ratings of "Where Are We Going, Dad" are actually higher than that of "Collision of Two Generations"?

After a while.

He shouted as loudly as possible: "Everyone come back, continue! Continue! Have a meeting!"

…

Yunhai Media.

Like Mango TV, Tang Tao was also in a meeting.

The meeting also lasted three days.

At this moment, Tang Tao felt that his body had been hollowed out: "Do you have any substantive suggestions? This is a critical moment for the survival of our department, and everyone must go all out. If someone puts forward substantive suggestions, it can change Yunhai Media In the upcoming crisis, the company promises to reward you generously!”

However, the audience was completely silent.

All the executives were silent.

If I have any suggestions, I have already mentioned them.

Can't wait until today.

Just when Tang Tao sighed and was about to leave the meeting.

Ring ring ring...the phone rings.

He originally wanted to hang up, but when he saw the person coming, he forced a smile and answered the call: "Mr. Xiao, are you still up so late? Don't worry, we at Yunhai Media will definitely come up with an effective way to transfer "Two Generations" to The ratings of "Human Collision" have improved. In the past few days, we..."

Tang Tao's voice stopped suddenly. As he listened, his face showed incredible shock.

It took a while until the other party hung up the phone.

Only then did he murmur: "Fuck! Fuck!"

A few seconds later.

He stood up suddenly, punched the conference table hard, raised his head and laughed loudly: "So what about Canxing Culture? So what about being number one in the ratings?! Hahaha!!!"

…

At half past ten this evening.

Mango Channel posted a message on Weibo: "Thank you for everyone's support. The parent-child outdoor reality show "Where Are We Going, Dad", which was broadcast for the first time tonight, finally won 0.613% due to everyone's love. The first broadcast ratings. Thank you to everyone who likes it. At the same time, Mango Channel announced here that at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, the first episode of "Where Are We Going, Dad" will be replayed on this station. If you haven't watched it, please Pay attention..."

After posting on Weibo.

In less than ten minutes, the news was like a huge wave, flooding the entire Internet.

Countless people in the industry across the entire network were shocked to death late at night.

Because, a variety show actually achieved a ratings of 0.613% with almost no promotion, completely crushed in popularity, and under various dismal circumstances without a prime time broadcast!
