Chapter 1223: Central TV Department 1 turns green with anger!
Translator: Legge Editor: Legge
On this day .
At Central TV Department 1 .
The Sing! program team started work early in the morning .
Jiang Yuan, the Deputy Director of Department 1, had come to check on their work . This was the tenth time he had dropped by to Sing!'s production office in recent days . For any of the other shows, the higher-ups would usually just check how everything was going at the start of production before approving the show's executive director and staff to handle the rest of the work . It wasn't feasible for the executives to come over every day to check on how everything was progressing . But Sing! was obviously different . Central TV Department 1 had a great deal of expectations for the show . The executives were also paying a large amount of attention to it with a "can't lose" attitude and determination . This was because it would be Central TV Department 1's biggest variety show this year, and it would have to get the results expected of it by sweeping away the rest of the variety show industry . That was the command issued from the top, which Central TV Department 1 would have to execute!
"Boss!"
"Director Jiang . "
"Good morning, Director Jiang . "
Jiang Yuan walked in with his hands behind his back .
The program team staff immediately stood up to greet him .
"Good morning, how's everything going?"
"Everything is proceeding smoothly . "
"Has Fan Wenli agreed to join us yet?"
"We've already signed the contract with her . She's been secured!"
"Good, very good . "
"But Chen Guang and Zhang Xia won't be joining . As for Sister Zhang, we've just contacted her manager, Fang Weihong . She says that Sister Zhang doesn't have a free slot in her schedule . "
"It's good enough that we have a guest coach from the first season of The Voice . How about the promo work? Are you guys going all out on it?"
"We've already gotten started . "
"How's the public's response?"
"The people are really looking forward to it . There are a lot of discussions regarding the show, and the Weibo topicality has already reached 200,000 . That's never happened before!"
"Hur hur, that's good . Great job, everyone . As long as we get to the top spot of the nationwide viewership ratings, I'll personally apply to management for everyone to get recognized for their contributions!"
"Thank you, Director Jiang . "
"We guarantee that we'll do a good job!"
"In the current climate of the variety show industry, no one is a match for us!"
"Yeah, the latest variety shows that Shanghai TV and Hunan TV did are no competition for us . After all, The Voice is exceedingly well-known for a TV show . After a year's break, the previous viewers will surely be anticipating it even more . Once the show starts broadcasting again, we've reason to believe that the old viewers will return and that there will be an influx of new viewers as well . Based on past experience, Sing! should do even better than the first season of The Voice in terms of viewership!"
Everyone felt loose and relaxed as they talked and laughed without pressure .
Why?
Because they had no opponents!
Not a single one!
Within the industry, in the entire satellite television market and variety show industry, there weren't too many shows as hot and phenomenal as The Voice . With its reputation out there, even if they filmed the show with their eyes closed, even with a change to the show's name, there would be no lack of viewers . The people would sit down at their televisions and wait for the show to be broadcast . This was the charm of having reputation and also the result that accumulated popularity could bring about . In the whole of the country, there was no one who could stop them! Unless some other phenomenal variety show were to suddenly emerge at this time, they would not be stopped . But no matter how they saw it, it was impossible for that to happen . King of Masked Singers had just ended a few months ago, so the second season couldn't possibly happen so soon . With such circumstances and without any opponents, they were simply invincible .
In this situation, the program team staff were all humming a song inside their heads .
How lonely it is to be invincible!
How empty it feels to be invincible!
The executive director of Sing! was even more exultant and in high spirits .
However, when they remembered that "Invincible" was written by Zhang Ye, they felt like they shouldn't be singing it in fear of bringing bad luck upon themselves . Zhang Ye's name was basically taboo in Central TV Department 1, and no one would dare mention it in front of the higher-ups without good reason . His name represented the biggest enemy Central TV Department 1 had and was also a sore spot that could never be healed .
Everyone went back to discussing the follow-up production .
They talked about issues like the recruitment of the guest coaches, who were still missing two people .
Everything was progressing smoothly, and they could almost see Sing! sweeping across the entire country . However, it was at this moment that a staff member came running in panic!
"Something's happened! Something's happened!"
"What's wrong? Why're you in such a rush?"
"What's happened?"
"Aren't you the one who's responsible for inviting the guest coaches onto the show? Which celebrity has declined to join us this time?"
"If they don't wish to join us, so be it . What are you so alarmed about?"
Everyone looked at that employee, unsure of what had happened .
He didn't manage to invite someone as a guest coach?
Then just approach someone else . There were so many others in the music industry anyway . With their reputation and offering price, there shouldn't be too many people who would reject them . So was there any need to worry about having no big names for their guest coaches?
But for some reason, that employee was looking really flustered . Just as the program team members were looking at him impatiently and wondering what was going on, he brought them an earth-shattering piece of news!
