Beep beep beep!
The alarm rang. The sky had turned bright.
Zhang Ye kicked away the soft down blanket and switched off the alarm. He was still a little sleepy, so he rolled over and continued to laze in bed. He did not care if he was late for work.
Someone knocked on the bedroom door.
"Zhang Ye."
"… Yes."
"It's time to get up. Hurry up."
"Got it. Sleep a little longer."
The door was not locked, so Dong Shanshan came in. She was dressed in professional attire. Today, she was dressed like a white-collared OL, but the thick red lipstick and makeup on her face made it seem like no matter what she wore, she would always look sexy. Her body was curvaceous.
Dong Shanshan nudged him. "Breakfast is ready."
A fragrance wafted in through the crack in the door. It seemed like porridge had been made.
Zhang Ye opened his eyes sleepily and sniffed, "Why does it smell so good?"
"If you're not up, I'll eat it all." Saying that, Dong Shanshan left the room and closed the door for him.
Zhang Ye stretched and quickly got dressed. Thinking of Dong Shanshan calling him in bed ….. waking him up, it felt like a wife calling her husband. It made Zhang Ye's heart itch. He thought that he would not need to wake the alarm in the future. He would have to wait for the school belle to wake him up every day.
In the living room. Dong Shanshan was getting the bowls and chopsticks.
"Good morning." Zhang Ye greeted her and went to the bathroom. He saw that there was an additional cup beside the tub he used to brush his teeth. There was a purple toothbrush in it. He tilted his head and saw that there were three new towels. There were also many facial cleansers and skincare products that Zhang Ye did not recognize. There was even a pack of pink sanitary napkins beside the toilet paper. They were all Dong Shanshan's.
He was really going to stay here for a long time.
It was pretty good. In the future, he would be able to see an eye-catching beauty walking around in front of him every day. Furthermore, the beauty was in charge of cooking. Was there anything more blissful than this?
Cohabiting with the school belle?
Zhang Ye still found it unbelievable when he thought about it!
After washing up, Dong Shanshan had already started eating. She did not wait for him.
Zhang Ye pulled out a chair and sat down. He thought of something and got up to get something from the bedroom. When he came out, he had an extra key in his hand, "This is the house key, the spare one."
"Alright." Dong Shanshan took it and put it away, "Hurry up and eat."
"Alright." Zhang Ye drank a mouthful of porridge and repeatedly praised it. He was very supportive.
Dong Shanshan smiled very charmingly, "Look at your expression. Do you have to be so exaggerated? Although my cooking isn't bad, it's not that delicious either. I'm only good at cooking a few dishes."
Zhang Ye encouraged, "No, it's really delicious."
Dong Shanshan was full. "Then I'll go to work first. Let's not go together."
"I understand. You can leave first," Zhang Ye said. They definitely couldn't let their colleagues know that they were living together. It wouldn't be good if it was spread out and rumors would spread.
Before leaving, Dong Shanshan waved her hand. "I'll see you at the office in a while. Oh right, throw the bowls and chopsticks into the sink when you're done. I'll wash them when I come back tonight."
The door closed and the man left.
Suddenly, Zhang Ye felt a numbness on his ankle. This feeling was very familiar. It was the numbness he felt when the Red String of Fate took effect yesterday. It had actually appeared again. He could not help but look down. The bright Red String of Fate on his ankle suddenly trembled and with a crack, it broke apart. The Red String of Fate evaporated with the air, turning into strands of red light. In a blink of an eye, there was nothing left. All that was left was the game ring's system notification: [Red String of Fate has failed].
Thankfully, it lasted for more than half a day.
Zhang Ye was still very satisfied with the Red String of Fate. Although his and Dong Shanshan's Marriage Compatibility had only allowed the Red String of Fate to last less than a day, that time had been spent on a knife's edge. Their marriage fate was clearly tied together. The matter with the toilet and her staying at his house not only brought him closer to the school belle psychologically, but also in terms of living distance. They were just separated by a living room, so overall, the effects of the Red String of Fate were very obvious. Zhang Ye believed that if he had not used the Red String of Fate to bind their marriage fate yesterday, Dong Shanshan would definitely not have come to his house last night, nor would she have stayed here for long. She would probably have found a house last night. After all, Shanghai was so big and there were so many houses. Finding a relatively suitable and cost-effective place was definitely possible. Even if she could not find one in a short period of time, the motel that Dong Shanshan was staying at would not have been fully booked. This was probably the effect of the Red String of Fate.
And there was another point. Even if the Red String of Fate had been broken and lost its effect, the "spoils of war" from before would not be lost. Dong Shanshan would definitely still be staying here!
Good stuff!
There's still one left. I'll use it in the future!
After finishing his meal, Zhang Ye closed the door and went to work.
… …
Weiwo Headquarters.
WebTV department's office.
The time Zhang Ye clocked in was exactly 8: 55. He was just a few minutes late. As he walked to his seat, he heard someone talking to Dong Shanshan.
Ah Qian said attentively, "I'll help you look at the house tonight."
"There's no need. Hur Hur. I already have a place to stay. Thank you." Dong Shanshan took out some specialties from her bag and handed it to him, "I brought it from home. Take some for yourself."
Ah Qian was flattered, "That's not appropriate."
"You accompanied me all the way here to look at a house, and I even got you to treat me to a meal. I'm still embarrassed. Quick, take it. It's not much." Dong Shanshan pushed it back to him.
Ah Qian said happily, "Alright. By the way, where are you staying?"
"Me?" Dong Shanshan lied without hesitation, "The rent nearby is too expensive, and it's inconvenient to stay too far away, so I stayed at my relative's house."
Little Yu, who was sitting at the next table, also came over, "You have relatives here?"
Dong Shanshan nodded, "Yes, I have a cousin. She has been in Shanghai for a few years."
The female colleague, Zhang Han, said, "It's good to stay at a relative's house. We can take care of each other. If we were to share a house, it would be troublesome. It's not safe either. Shanshan, when your cousin isn't at home, do you want to visit your house?" Yesterday, when she went to the restroom to look for Dong Shanshan, she had addressed her as Teacher Dong. Today, she had changed the way she addressed her. Clearly, their relationship was closer. Last night, when they were looking for a house, Zhang Han had also accompanied them.
Visit?
At home?
Zhang Ye, who was about to sit down, tripped and nearly fell.
Dong Shanshan smiled, "Sure, some day. But it's definitely not possible in the near future. My sis seldom goes on business trips." With that, he was sent far away.
It was time for work.
Everyone began to get busy.
Zhang Ye was already very familiar with his work. No one assigned him any tasks, so he just sat in front of the computer like a fool. However, he did not stay idle. Since no one assigned him anything, he would do it himself. Hence, he created a document on the computer and began preparing a program plan.
What should it be called?
What program name would be suitable?
As he typed on the keyboard, Zhang Ye thought about it. He rejected the names of a few domestic talk show programs from his world, such as "Tonight 80's", "What Show of the Week". Zhang Ye decided to respect the orthodox talk show program names from Europe and America. "Zhang Ye's Show"? Not good. After all, it was this world's first talk show program. If he omitted the words, others would not understand it. It was better to use the full name!
Let's call it "Zhang Ye's Talk Show"!
Right, this was good. It was clear at a glance!
As Zhang Ye was a fan of talk shows in his world, he always watched them. Furthermore, he was a professional broadcasting major, so he was very familiar with talk show programs. In just an hour, he had almost finished the program plan. It included the venue layout, the size of the audience, the equipment requirements, the funding request, etc. He listed all of them in detail. He felt that he had done it beautifully.
On the other side, Ah Qian had returned from outside. His position in the WebTV department was a full-time program planner. It was the same for Little Yu. Many new programs' planning and production were handled by them.
Ah Qian first found Dong Shanshan, "Teacher Shanshan, the proposal we discussed yesterday has been shown to the Leader. He says it's okay, and wants us to begin preparations."
Dong Shanshan blinked and said, "That proposal for Online Talents?"
"Right, that's the one. Didn't we discuss and reject the previous one?" Ah Qian said.
Dong Shanshan smiled, "It's good that it's approved. Such programs are quite popular now. We can ride on the coattails, but the actual implementation still needs to be considered. It won't be easy to find those experts, right?"
Little Yu chuckled, "It's easy to find them. Let's do it online. We don't need to have too many applicants. Besides, not all of them have to be experts in a certain field. Some funny ones are fine too. For example, I know someone who can fart more than ten times in a row. That would be considered an expert, and it would be very eye-catching. Anyway, our WebTV can be more open-minded than those talent shows on television."
Dong Shanshan nodded, "Alright, then let's begin preparations."
"Alright, leave the planning and implementation to us. I've already thought of the team members for you." Ah Qian said very well.
"Then I'll trouble you." Dong Shanshan smiled, "When the program is done, I'll treat everyone to a meal."
Talent show?
This world already had one?
Zhang Ye was no stranger to it. Although he had never seen such programs in this world, they were all very similar. His world already had such programs. Zhang Ye felt a little regretful. He had thought that if this world did not have any programs, then after he finished his talk show, he would be able to expand his capabilities and bring all the programs from his world over. But now that he thought about it … it was just a thought. Some programs had already appeared in this world's entertainment environment. It was impossible for there to be nothing. After all, the culture and society were similar. Even if there was a difference, it wouldn't be too big. Zhang Ye did not have that many loopholes to exploit. If a talk show did not appear in this society's history, then he was already very lucky. He did not need to think about anything else. He would do his research in the future. Besides, this world might even have programs that did not exist in Zhang Ye's world. Hence, both sides had their own things. Zhang Ye still needed to explore it step by step.
Let's not think too much!
Let's make the talk show format better and bigger!
Zhang Ye began typing and continued editing the proposal on the computer.
At this moment, Ah Qian, who had finished speaking to Dong Shanshan, looked at Zhang Ye hesitantly. He still walked over and smiled, "Teacher Zhang, nice to meet you. I'm the second program planner in our department. You can just call me Ah Qian." Be it income or social status, a program planner like Ah Qian and Little Yu was definitely lower than a host. There was no comparison in terms of their positions, so they were very polite when speaking to Zhang Ye. Of course, there was another reason. Zhang Ye's temperament was a little "hard to get along with". Ah Qian was a little apprehensive when speaking to Zhang Ye. He was afraid that Zhang Ye would scold him if he did not finish his sentence. He was a planner, so he definitely could not beat a host in a scolding. That person relied on his mouth to make a living!
As for Zhang Ye? He was very excited!
Someone among his colleagues had finally spoken to him!
Zhang Ye nearly burst into tears. In the past two days in the department, other than the school belle, there was not a single colleague who spoke to him. It made this fellow feel like he was playing a f * * king single-player game! Hence, it was obvious from Zhang Ye's expression. Humans could temporarily not need anyone, or even communicate, but humans were still animals living in society. If they lost social activities and communication for a long period of time, it would suffocate them to death.
Zhang Ye grabbed his hand, "Hello, Ah Qian."
Ah Qian jumped in fright. F * * k, you are too enthusiastic, "Uh, hello, hello." Seeing this scene, his attitude towards Zhang Ye changed a little. He was no longer as humble, "Just now, I went to Deputy Director Wang's office to apply for a program for Teacher Shanshan. After that, the Leader asked me if you have any good ideas for your program. I did not know how to answer. Later on, the Leader asked me to call you over at 11 PM. He will be back after the meeting."
Zhang Ye looked at his watch, "It's almost time. Alright, I'll be there in a while."
Ah Qian blinked his eyes, "Do you have any ideas for your program? I had wanted to talk to you about the new program yesterday, but I heard that your situation is a little different from Teacher Shanshan's. The higher-ups have handed over all the work from the program planning to the production to the hosting to you? "
Zhang Ye acknowledged, "It's stipulated in the contract."
Ah Qian gave a wry smile, "You really make people envious. Usually, when a new web host comes in, even if they have some fame, they would not let the host plan their own program. They would have to discuss it with everyone, or just find a suitable program from the proposal to apply for it. This is the first time the company and I have heard of you having such freedom." With a pause, he said, "But it's not that strange. I've specially watched your 'Lecture Room'. It's really great. You actually managed to combine historical knowledge and interest. Furthermore, you fused them so well. I heard that the program was planned by you? Also, back then, there was a creative advertisement about saving electricity. That was also planned and produced by you, right? You are an expert in planning, much better than us. If not, the Leader would not have trusted you with the program planning. That's why I did not dare to be presumptuous yesterday. In front of you, I did not dare to display my slight skill in front of an expert. "He tried to smooth things over. It was obvious that he was trying to build a good relationship with Zhang Ye.
Zhang Ye still remembered that the person from HR, who had been scolded by him, knew Ah Qian and company. He had even chatted with them, but looking at Ah Qian's current state, his relationship with that person was probably just that. They could speak, but not on good terms.
Zhang Ye was being flattered, "Don't say that. I'm a professional in broadcasting. As for planning, I'm just a playboy. I can't compare to you."
They were flattering each other.
This was what it meant to chat.
When Little Yu saw Ah Qian chatting with that industry oddity, he broke into a sweat. He took the opportunity to walk over, "Teacher Zhang, I've heard a lot about you. Everyone calls me Little Yu, or by my English name, CA …" Saying this, he suddenly remembered that Zhang Ye was a nationalistic youth, so he quickly corrected himself, "Just call me Little Yu. I'm also a member of the program planning team 2."
"Hello." Zhang Ye shook hands with him.
The two of them were also very young. They were about the same age.
The three of them chatted. Soon, Dong Shanshan, who was done with her work, joined in the fun. She joined in their chatter, and the atmosphere was very good.
"Aiyah." Little Yu looked at his watch, "It's 11."
Zhang Ye stood up, "Then I'll go look for the Leader first. Right, how do I print it? I want to show the proposal to Deputy Director Wang. "
Ah Qian said in surprise, "You've already done it?"
Zhang Ye said, "Yes, I just finished it."
"F * * k, so fast?" Ah Qian felt a little dizzy, but he did not say a word. He helped Zhang Ye print out a copy of what was on the computer.
Dong Shanshan and Little Yu also came over to take a look out of curiosity.
The other words were too small, so they could not see it clearly. However, they could see the title!
Zhang Ye's Talk Show? What was that? The three of them were all stunned. They could not react. Take off what? What program was this? A dance program?
… …
Deputy Director's office.
Zhang Ye knocked on the door, "Leader."
"Come in." It looked like Wang Xiong had just returned from a meeting. He was giving instructions to an employee. When he saw him, he smiled, "Little Zhang, have a seat." After the instructions were given and the employee left, Wang Xiong said, "I'm looking for you to ask about your new program. Although I know that a good program needs a long period of planning and preparation, our WebTV's view count is not looking too good. It has been declining for the past few months. We have lost quite a bit of market share. You should be able to feel it from the website's view count. That's why I headhunted you and Dong Shanshan. We want to come up with two new programs to compete with the other WebTV stations, so it's quite urgent."
Zhang Ye said confidently, "Leader, I understand. That's why I made the best use of my time to come up with a program plan. Please take a look and give me some pointers." He took out a few pieces of A4 paper.
Wang Xiong was very surprised, "Oh? You've already done it? Good, very good. " Previously, when he saw Zhang Ye's attitude, he thought that he was not serious about his work. He wanted to give him a warning, but who knew that he was so attentive and had already finished the plan. Wang Xiong liked this kind of employee. Compared to the kind of employee who would only take a step forward after being beaten by the Leader, this kind of person who had already prepared for a rainy day before the Leader said anything was naturally likable.
"Let me take a look." Wang Xiong took it over.
Zhang Ye sat there as steady as Mount Tai.
After a few looks, Wang Xiong was dumbfounded.
"Talk Show?"
"Yes."
"What's a Talk Show?"
"It's Talk-Show."
"What's Talk-Show?"
"It's a Talk Show."
Wang Xiong, "…"
Your sister! Am I telling you a tongue twister??
