The atmosphere in the program team was very strange. Everyone had their eyes on Zhang Ye, and there was a strange and subtle glint in their eyes.
A professional singer?
There was even a host license?
They really did have such a weirdo!
Furthermore, he was sitting right in front of them!
That's right! How could they have forgotten about him before this!
Hu Fei finally spoke up. "Director Zhang, let's have a meeting."
Zhang Ye raised his hand. "I'm not having a meeting. Don't even think about it, Brother Hu!"
Hou Ge also said, "Director Zhang, let's have a meeting instead."
Zhang Ye didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "What meeting? Let me say this first: You guys are overthinking things, really overthinking things. Do you really think that I have three heads and six arms? Do you really think that I have 72 doppelgangers? "
"Isn't there no one else?" Xiao Lu blinked.
Zhang Ye said, "Our country lacks many things, but we don't lack people."
Dafei said, "But it seems like there's no other professional singer and host license other than you in the industry."
Zhang Ye rolled his eyes. "That's impossible!"
Hu Fei coughed and said, "There really isn't anyone else."
Han Qi nodded in confirmation. "Yes, there's only you."
Hou Di added, "You're the only one both domestically and abroad."
Zhang Ye was speechless.
Hu Fei walked over. "Director Zhang, let's talk."
"I'm not talking." Zhang Ye hurriedly said, "There's no room for discussion."
Hu Fei pretended to be pained and said, "Our show is facing such a big problem, yet you have the heart to stand by and do nothing? This isn't the Director Zhang I know. "
Zhang Ye pointed to his chest. "Don't, this is the me you know. Don't doubt it."
Hu Fei was speechless.
Han Qi also advised, "Just go, Director Zhang. With your standards, which of the other singers can be a match for you?"
Your sister!
You think too highly of me!
"Anyone can be a match for me!" Zhang Ye nearly fainted. "Grandma Zhang, Old Chen, Sister Dong, Old Huang, which one of them isn't a top-notch singer in the music industry? If I go up and lose, then my popularity will definitely drop. If I go up and win, then my show's popularity will definitely drop. I'm the executive director, so I'm in charge of everything inside and outside of 'I Am a Singer'. From the rules to the voting, I'm the one who sets the rules. If I roll up my sleeves and go up to participate in the competition, then even if I win, I won't be able to show my face, and the audience will say that there's some shady dealings going on. So I'm not a human being, and I can't win or lose. So tell me, how am I supposed to participate in the competition? "
Hu Fei exclaimed, "Let's just take it one step at a time. We have to save the situation first."
Zhang Ye was going crazy. He facepalmed and said, "Alright then, even if I were to lower my pride and go up to compete, I only have one head and two hands. Oh, I have to be the executive director who oversees the program planning, announce the rankings, act as a host, rehearse and train, and even take part in the competition." He stared at them and said, "Even if this bro had three heads and six arms, it wouldn't be enough! Are you guys trying to tire me to death? "
Hu Fei smacked his lips and said, "Just work overtime."
Zhang Ye said, "How is this working overtime? This is fucking risking my life!"
Xiao Lu pleaded, "Teacher Zhang."
Zhang Ye said firmly, "I'm not going."
"Teacher Zhang."
"Director Zhang."
"We're all depending on you."
"There's no one else but you."
"Director Zhang."
"Just work overtime."
Everyone came up to him and chimed in one after another.
Zhang Ye was confused by what he was hearing. He had participated in singing shows before. Back on King of Masked Singers, he was the one who participated with his face covered. He knew what it felt like to be a contestant. It was like not eating or drinking every day as they had to deal with the same song every day. Sometimes, if it didn't feel right, they would even have to change the song at the last minute. They would even have to rearrange the song, rehearse, and sound check. During his days on King of Masked Singers, he had not had a single good night's sleep!
But now?
Executive director?
Executive producer?
Vote counter?
Host?
Contestants?
You all fucking want me to do all of them?
Zhang Ye refused to agree to it no matter what. In fact, he was even more annoyed with Central TV Department 1. Fuck!
...
At night.
On Weibo.
"There's confirmed information. It was Central TV Department 1 who reported them!"
"Are you for real?"
"I have a classmate who works at the SARFT, so it can't be wrong!"
"Damn, I knew it would be them!"
"That's really wicked of them!"
"Yeah, the crux of the matter is that Central TV Department 1 also used unlicensed hosts for two of their shows at the beginning of this year! It's fine for them to use themselves? It's fine for others to use them? What the hell is this? Two sets of standards! And they even reported them? Borrowing the hands of the higher-ups to attack dissidents? That's using public resources for personal gain! "
"How infuriating!"
...
Central TV Department 1.
Everyone had already gotten off work, but they were still chatting on the way back.
"Was it really us who reported them?"
"I think so."
"Haha, it was a good report."
"Let's see how I Am a Singer will handle this time."
"How much do you think our viewership ratings will increase?"
"If they go down, our viewership ratings will increase by at least 1%."
...
At this moment, a Weibo post from Zhang Ye shocked everyone!
Zhang Ye's Weibo: "Let me inform you that as we need to cooperate with the State Administration of Radio, Film, and Television to rectify the situation, I Am a Singer's broadcast schedule will be adjusted."
The date.
The broadcast time.
It was exactly the same as Sing!'s!
The industry immediately blew up!
"Holy shit!"
"Has Beijing TV gone crazy?"
"It's another broadcast time?"
"They're fighting again! They're fighting again! "
"What the hell! Beijing TV is too domineering! "
"This is Zhang Ye's counterattack!"
"Hahahaha, Central TV Department 1 is going to cry!"
"We just managed to dodge it, but Beijing TV has already caught up to us?"
Elsewhere.
Central TV Department 1 blew up!
Calls were being made one by one!
"Hello, Boss?"
"Come back quickly!"
"Ah? Go back where? "
"Back to the office, of course! Immediately! "
Many of those who had already knocked off and returned home were called back!
Then, when they returned to the office and found out that I Am a Singer would be airing at the same time as them again, all the blood drained from their faces!
"How is that possible!"
"Zhang Ye is a madman!"
"He's a madman to begin with!"
"Is he trying to fight to the death with us?"
"Aren't they going to continue to break the viewership ratings record? If they're airing at the same time as us, yes, I admit that our losses will definitely be greater. But they won't be able to get out of this unscathed either. They won't have any hope of breaking the viewership ratings record anymore! The losses outweigh the gains. Anyone with a brain would not do something like that! Would Beijing TV allow Zhang Ye to do something like that? Even if they did, the advertisers wouldn't be able to afford the losses! "
"Zhang Ye is really capable of doing something like that!"
"Right, you can't judge him with common sense!"
"It's over! We're completely finished this time! "
"They might not be able to deal with the changes to I Am a Singer anymore. They don't want us to have an easy time either! They might as well let both sides suffer! Let's all die together? "
"Damned hooligan!"
"Zhang Ye is a damned hooligan!"
Everyone was panic-stricken!
Especially the program team staff of Sing! They were really on the verge of tears!
It was happening again!
Zhang Ye's nightmare was about to come back again!
Not long after, the main executives of Central TV Department 1 also hurried back to the office. They immediately called for an emergency meeting.
Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Naixiong.
Several of the directors scolded Zhang Ye like a dog during the meeting. They were all very familiar with Zhang Ye as he had worked at Central TV Department 1 for a very long time. Even after such a long time, this fellow was still as much of a jerk as ever. He hadn't changed at all!
The main executives of Sing!'s program team were all frowning. After the meeting, they immediately carried out their leaders' instructions and rearranged the recording for the new episode. The previous method was definitely not going to work, so they needed a change. They needed something more impactful so that they would be able to face Zhang Ye's wrath. That way, they wouldn't die too horribly in this episode. At the same time, they also made plans to change the broadcast time for the second time. But this was not going to be easy to handle. The last time they changed the broadcast time, it was the result of a lot of communication between the station and the higher-ups. Changing it again this time? That would be too troublesome. It wouldn't be easy to get approval either. They couldn't allow everything to be theirs!
However, the official website still made some preparations.
Sing!'s Weibo quickly posted: "Due to technical reasons, Sing! is not ruling out the possibility of changing its broadcast time in the near future. Everyone, please keep an eye on the official website for the latest updates."
The netizens were stunned.
"Pfft!"
"They're changing the broadcast time again?"
"They're still changing it?"
"Sing! has chickened out again!"
Central TV Department 1 was in chaos!
Making phone calls!
Working overtime!
Holding meetings!
Discussing plans!
The industry was also shocked by Beijing Television's decision!
However, the development of the situation was something no one could have expected!
Just an hour after Zhang Ye posted on Weibo, just as Central TV Department 1 was in chaos and some people were already contacting the higher-ups to discuss changing the broadcast time for the second time, Zhang Ye's Weibo post, which had already been pushed to the top searches and the front page of Weibo, was suddenly deleted by him.
Then he posted another one.
Zhang Ye's Weibo: "Ah, my account has been hacked. The program's broadcast time will not be changed. Everyone, please don't listen to the rumors and use your own judgment. Changing the broadcast time of a program is a very complicated matter. We have to report it to the station and the SARFT for approval before it can be effective.
Hacked account?
Rumors?
The people were dumbfounded!
The industry was dumbfounded!
Central TV Department 1 was dumbfounded!
Some people at Central TV refused to believe it and immediately called a friend at the SARFT.
"Hello, Old Xu!"
"What's the matter?"
"I Am a Singer did not change its broadcast time?"
"Change what time?"
"They didn't report it for approval?"
"What approval? What are you talking about? "
"I … ()% …% ¥# # @ @!!!"
The situation was very clear!
The people of Central TV Department 1 nearly cursed their ancestors at this moment!
Zhang Ye!
Fuck your grandpa!
You're too f * cking wicked!
When the netizens found out about the truth, they nearly cramped up with laughter!
"Aiyo, what the fuck!"
"Hahahahaha!"
"I can't take it anymore, I'm crying from laughing!"
"Zhang Ye, that scammer!"
"What a bastard!"
"Hacked account, your sister! Only an idiot would believe you! "
"Sing!'s program team has really disgraced themselves this time!"
"Yeah, I heard that all of them went back to work overtime as though they were facing a formidable foe. They even hurriedly contacted the higher-ups to report for approval to change the broadcast time. But in the end, it turns out that Zhang Ye was just messing with them!"
"Zhang Ye's move is too wicked! It's too beautiful! "
"Yeah, to deal with people like that, they should be treated like cowards!"
"Only Zhang Ye can pull off such a move. If it were anyone else, they would definitely be scolded to death and even offend the entire industry. But Zhang Ye is fine because everyone knows that this fellow is such a person! Besides, there's no one else he can afford to offend anymore. He's already offended everyone that he could! "
"My wife and I are laughing so hard!"
"That joker!"
"The entertainment circle would be so boring without him!"
"The crux of the matter is that at the end, this fellow even called out to them not to believe the rumors and told them to use their own judgment. Aiyo, my Teacher Zhang, can you not be so funny?"
Quite a few netizens applauded!
A lot of people in the industry didn't know whether to laugh or cry. They were so angry that they laughed!
This weirdo!
This joker!
This hooligan!
Grasping the sun and moon and plucking the stars!
There's no such person in the world!
