Central TV.
Broadcasting Studio 1, Main Control Room.
All the staff members held their breath.
Zhang Ye sat in front of the control panel with his headphones on. He was personally operating the controls. As he stared at the closed-circuit screen, his hands slowly pushed up two buttons.
"Five."
"Four."
"Three."
"Two."
"One."
"Tsk, alright!"
The signal for the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala was cut.
Exhausted, Zhang Ye took off his headphones and threw them on the table. He let out a long sigh of relief with a smile and turned to everyone, "It's over!" The signal had already been switched to Central TV Department 1's frequency band. The television was definitely still on, but what came after that was no longer under the control of Zhang Ye, the executive director of the Spring Festival Gala. He was only in charge of the Spring Festival Gala, so at this moment, Zhang Ye and the Spring Festival Gala's production team's mission ended here!
As soon as the words "It's over" came out.
For a moment, everyone in the main control room was jubilant!
"We're done!"
"Happy New Year!"
"Ahhhhh!"
"We did it!"
"Yes, we did it!"
"This year is fantastic! We're awesome! "
Everyone could only shout to express their excitement.
At this moment, the door to the production control room suddenly opened. Outside, the staff of the production team rushed in one by one. The Spring Festival Gala Organizing Committee was also outside!
They're all here!
Everyone had come!
Sixty to seventy people packed the main control room and the outer room!
Some people were screaming and hugging each other!
Some people raised their arms and shouted excitedly!
A female staff member secretly wiped away her tears in a corner!
This year's Spring Festival Gala had really not been easy. Li Ke had resigned at the last minute, and there was no one to take over as executive director. After all the twists and turns, when it seemed like it was going to be too late, Zhang Ye took on the task at the last minute and led the production team to stage a shocking reversal, putting on a show that turned the tide. Before this, who could have expected that this year's Spring Festival Gala would turn out like this?
No one!
No one could have imagined it!
But Zhang Ye had done it!
But they did it!
Zhang Ye hugged them one by one.
"Old Han, it's been hard on you!" Zhang Ye said.
Assistant Director Han said, "This bit of hard work is nothing."
Zhang Ye said, "Old Ha, you've worked hard."
Ha Qiqi said, "You've worked hard!"
Zhang Ye said, "Old He, the lighting was done beautifully!"
Old He said, "It's because of your good command!"
Zhang Ye said, "Old Sun, it must have been tough on you at the venue today."
Old Sun was very excited. "This is nothing, this is nothing!"
Zhang Ye hugged each of the staff members one by one, calling out each of their names and saying, "You've worked hard."
However, everyone knew that they were not the ones who had it the hardest!
The person who had almost single-handedly carried the entire Spring Festival Gala, the person who had been working on the frontlines for two consecutive months — was standing right in front of them!
The leader came in and grabbed Zhang Ye's hand!
Chief Zhao said, "Thank you for your hard work! Director Zhang, you're amazing! You're too awesome! "
Chief Ma said loudly, "This is the best Spring Festival Gala I've ever seen! You're a god! "
Deputy Chief Liu said, "Director Zhang, thank you! Thank you! "
But Zhang Ye said sincerely, "I have to thank all of you. Although we had different opinions previously, everyone still cooperated with me fully in the end. I —"
Chief Ma hurriedly said, "Let's not talk about this anymore, it's all in the past."
Chief Zhao said, "Yes, yes, it's all in the past." Then he laughed heartily and said, "If you come back to be the executive director for next year's Spring Festival Gala, I, Old Zhao, will still be willing to team up with you!"
Zhang Ye was startled by this and quickly waved it off. "Whoa, please spare me! You still want to direct the Spring Festival Gala? This year's Spring Festival Gala nearly took my life. I'm not coming back! "
Everyone laughed heartily when they heard that. That's right, this year's Spring Festival Gala was too thrilling!
Suddenly, a leader of the organizing committee said, "Come on, everyone, quiet down. I suggest that we give Director Zhang a round of applause, alright?"
Everyone started shouting.
"OK!"
"OK!"
"OK!"
Zhang Ye hurriedly said, "Don't be like that, why are you clapping?"
However, no one listened to him. Applause immediately rang out!
"Director Zhang!"
"Thank you!"
"Thank you!"
"You've worked hard!"
"Director Zhang, it's all thanks to you this time!"
"You're like a god that descended to earth!"
"If it weren't for you, we really wouldn't know what to do!"
"Director Zhang, thank you!"
The applause went on for a long time!
Everyone was truly grateful and sighing from the bottom of their hearts!
Zhang Ye's hard work, hard work, and sacrifice were all seen by them over the past few days. In the past two months of the Spring Festival Gala, the light in Zhang Ye's office had not been turned off once. All the pressure from the outside world was shouldered by him, so the production of the show was handled by him. Even the final scolding of the Five Fortunes Collection was shouldered by Zhang Ye himself. He did not let Unipay or the Spring Festival Gala bear it. Zhang Ye had already guessed that this would happen. So before anyone could understand what was going on, he already had a plan in mind. He specially got Unipay to handle the PR and even got them to set the amount very low when sending out red packets to Zhang Ye. All of this was so that he could shoulder the "scolding" from everyone!
Dirty work!
Tiring work!
He did all of it!
This was a director worthy of everyone's respect!
Suddenly, the crowd on the other side parted to form a path. A woman walked in gracefully from the outside.
"Chief Wu!"
"Ah, Chief Wu!"
It was Wu Zeqing!
Zhang Ye was also stunned. "Hey, what are you doing here?"
Wu Zeqing smiled. "I was waiting for you."
Zhang Ye said, "I was recording the Spring Festival Gala, so why were you waiting for me? When did you get here?"
Chief Ma smiled and said, "Chief Wu has been here since the start of the livestream. She has been waiting backstage."
"Look at you." Zhang Ye grumbled, "It's so noisy here. Wouldn't it have been better to wait at home?" Although he was grumbling, he was very touched.
"Director Zhang, let's hurry back."
"Yes, you must be tired."
"You and Chief Wu should hurry home."
"Director Zhang, happy new year!"
"Chief Wu, Director Zhang, Happy New Year to the two of you!"
Everyone was saying auspicious words.
Zhang Ye also said, "Alright, everyone, let's hurry back home. We've been busy for more than two months, so let's all rest for a few days. I think the viewership ratings will only be released tomorrow or the day after. We've already done what we needed to do and the program has achieved the results we expected. In fact, we even exceeded our expectations, so no matter what the viewership ratings turn out to be, there's nothing to be regretful about. Let's just wait for the results and go home to celebrate the new year.
Ratings?
That's right, all they had to do now was wait for the viewership ratings to be released!
They had given it their all, but the final results would still depend on the viewership ratings. Everyone was also looking forward to the day the viewership ratings were released!
The higher-ups had assigned a 20% viewership rating?
Could they surpass that figure?
How much could they surpass it?
At this time, no one dared to make any guarantees!
