Four days later.
Friday morning.
The shock and discussion of "Zhang Ye's Talk Show" on the internet gradually calmed down and became rational. The topic's popularity was no longer as high. No matter how popular a topic was, it could not last forever. It was very normal. There was news that a Korean star who claimed to be "natural" recently had a plastic surgery scandal. Everyone was discussing this. Zhang Ye, who was in the eye of the storm, did not mind. This was because his fame had been earned enough from this wave.
His Weibo fans neared 900,000!
His Tieba fan club's hardcore fans had soared to 40,000!
Even on the Celebrity Rankings Reference, Zhang Ye was no longer at the bottom of the D-list celebrity rankings. He had risen by about 8 or 9 places. Although he was still at the bottom, the D-list and E-list were two completely different concepts. The celebrities at this level were all genuine goods. They had gone through countless trials and baptisms. None of them were pushovers. Hence, for the program to rise by 8 or 9 places after just one episode was already very heaven-defying. If "Zhang Ye's Talk Show" continued to maintain its quality, it was believed that its ranking would only get higher and higher.
Looking at the game's total Reputation points.
— A total of 2.1 million!
Zhang Ye knew that the reason why he could get so many Reputation points in one episode was probably because a talk show was a form of entertainment that had never appeared in this world before. This was the reason why it had such a huge impact and heated discussion. Following that, it gave him so many Reputation points. He estimated that after the second episode, it would not be so much. Maybe it would be cut by half. Every episode would give him about a million Reputation points, but a million was already very high. For example, when he was at Beijing Television Station, an episode of "Zhang Ye's Analysis of the Three Kingdoms" could only give him a few hundred thousand Reputation points. This was more than double! Looking back, Zhang Ye's choice to work at the WebTV was clearly the right choice!
There was still an hour before work.
Dong Shanshan was not at home either. She had gone to work on her new program.
After Zhang Ye ate breakfast, he habitually switched on the television to watch the news. Then, he opened the game ring's interface, hoping to try his luck at the Lottery. Since he had nothing better to do, he clicked to buy the Lottery. Then, Zhang Ye did not look at which region the needle would stop at. He immediately clicked on the Additional Stakes and added 10 Additional Stakes!
He spent a total of 1.1 million Reputation points!
The needle began to move! It spun crazily! Then it got slower and slower!
This was because the "Difficulty Adjustment Die" had left a huge psychological scar on Zhang Ye. The last two times he had played the Lottery, he had drawn a Consumption Category item. Hence, he really did not dare to draw the Consumption Category item this time. It would be best if he could get lucky and draw the Special Category item. If not, the Stats Category or the Skills Category would be fine too.
Spin! Spinning and spinning!
The needle slowly came to a stop!
Zhang Ye took a look. Not bad. It was the Skills Category area!
He took out the Treasure Chest (Small) from his inventory and opened the lid. He was filled with anticipation to see what he would get from the Lottery.
[Computer Network Technology Skill Experience Book] 11
He could not help but smack his forehead. What kind of crappy thing was this? His program was getting more and more popular, but his luck was getting worse by the day. He remembered the last time when he was in Beijing, before Zhang Ye had drawn the Taiji Fist Skill, he had drawn the Computer Programming Skill Experience Book. And it was a total of 21 books. Now, it was happening again? Change courses? This time, it's a skill book for computer network technology? F * ck you! Are you asking me to become a computer science teacher? Programming, network technology, what do I need it for!? This bro wants to be a celebrity, not an IT career!
Forget it. Since it has come to this, there's no point in saying anything. I'll eat it first. What if this crappy thing can be used in the future? That was how Zhang Ye comforted himself.
1 book …
10 books …
11 books …
Zhang Ye "ate" the skill experience points.
As for the remaining one million Reputation points, Zhang Ye did not plan on drawing at the Lottery. He did not hesitate to buy a total of ten Memory Search Capsules and ate them. He then continued to extract the memories of all the outstanding Talk Show programs from his world. There was no such thing as too much. He had only extracted a tiny bit the last time. In the future, he definitely wanted to continue doing his Talk Show well. This knowledge and memories were extremely important. If not, without these things, Zhang Ye would not be able to speak so fluently and confidently. This was his foundation!
8: 40.
After spending all his Reputation points, Zhang Ye took a taxi to work.
… …
The unit.
It was a cloudy day, but it did not look like it would rain.
Just as he arrived at the company, a staff member came to call him. Director Feng was looking for him.
Zhang Ye put down his things and went upstairs to the Director's office. He knocked on the door and entered, "Director Feng, you were looking for me?"
Wang Xiong was also in the room. Feng Guiqin was talking to him. She turned her head to look at Zhang Ye and waved at him with a smile, "Come, Little Zhang. Have a seat first."
"Yes." Zhang Ye sat down.
Feng Guiqin looked at him and said, "Recently, your 'Zhang Ye's Talk Show' has brought quite a number of netizens and viewers to our website. It has also earned quite a bit of praise and reputation. However, there have been many things happening on the internet in the past two days. The popularity of your program has also decreased. I'm afraid that when the second episode is broadcasted tomorrow, the results might shrink a little. So I want to add a gimmick to make your program even more popular."
Zhang Ye asked curiously, "What gimmick?"
Feng Guiqin laughed, "This is just a sudden idea of mine. Or perhaps it's not an exaggeration to say that it's whimsical. It mainly depends on your personal opinion."
Zhang Ye was puzzled, "What gimmick?"
Feng Guiqin paused and said, "I want to do a live broadcast."
"Live broadcast?" Zhang Ye was stunned, "Online live broadcast?"
Feng Guiqin nodded, "This is very difficult. I also know that there are very few live broadcasts on traditional television stations. Other than some news programs and competitions, the rest are basically recorded broadcasts. This is because a live broadcast is unpredictable. There will be all sorts of problems and unexpected situations. Even those news programs often make mistakes during a live broadcast. This is even under the circumstances of holding a script or reading from a teleprompter. Online television is even more difficult. This new industry has been around for a few years, but no one has dared to do a live broadcast on online television programs. This possibility has long been denied by many industry insiders. This is because they feel that it is too difficult. It is impossible to be foolproof. If a problem occurs live, the host will find it difficult to deal with it flexibly. That would be a live broadcast. Rather than that, it would be better to do a recorded broadcast. However, after watching your first live episode of Talk Show, I have a feeling that others might not be able to do it, but I think you can! "
Director Feng's words put a lot of pressure on him, but it also made his blood boil. This kind of trust was very hard to come by.
Wang Xiong asked, "Teacher Little Zhang, what do you think?"
Feng Guiqin chuckled and said, "Director Wang doesn't really approve of it. He feels that it's too risky. Rather than fighting for the title of 'the first WebTV program that dares to do a live broadcast' to gain popularity, it's better to play it safe. But I feel that you can do it. Your program doesn't need any editing. From the beginning to the end, you have a perfect grasp of the rhythm. The scale of your speech is also very good. It can even be said that it's just right. Not a single sentence is against the rules. As for your adaptability, you graduated from a broadcasting major and have done quite a few programs.
Zhang Ye was silent. He was considering.
Feng Guiqin looked at him and said, "Of course, I've also said that it depends on your opinion. Do you dare to take the risk? Do you dare to be first? If you feel that it's not appropriate, then forget it. We can continue according to the original plan for recording."
About ten seconds later, Zhang Ye looked up and said, "Director Feng, I've done live broadcasts on the radio before, but this is my first time doing a live broadcast on television, but … I can give it a try. I have considered it for a long time, and I feel that there won't be any problems. I don't dare to say that it will be foolproof, but at least there won't be too many loopholes!"
Wang Xiong interrupted, "Teacher Little Zhang, have you thought it through!"
Feng Guiqin said, "Right, you really have to consider this matter carefully."
Zhang Ye smiled, "I've thought it through. Other online television stations might not dare to do a live broadcast, but I have a special trait. I'm born with guts. I dare!"
Feng Guiqin was very happy and decided, "Alright, then we will do a live broadcast tomorrow at 8 PM sharp. Little Zhang, go back and prepare. It's all up to you!"
"Alright." Zhang Ye nodded and left.
… …
In the afternoon.
The colleagues in the office also received a piece of shocking news — Saturday at 8 PM! "Zhang Ye's Talk Show" was going to be broadcast live online!
Wang Bei immediately found Zhang Ye, "Zhang Ye, you want to do a live broadcast?"
Zhang Ye nodded in acknowledgment.
"Are you crazy?" Wang Bei covered her face as if she was about to faint, "It's not like this is a news program. How can an entertainment program do a live broadcast?"
There was no other way to do a live broadcast of a news program. Since there was a script, all he had to do was read it. A live broadcast of a sports competition was relatively safer. As long as the competition was filmed as it was, the commentator's gags would not be a problem. There were also some variety shows like singing competitions. Although the finals were sometimes broadcast live, since the contestants had already made it to the finals, there would not be any major problems no matter how bad they sang. But what program did Zhang Ye have? He was a talk show! He had nothing and only relied on Zhang Ye's mouth! He even insisted on not using a teleprompter. If he forgot his lines or something went wrong, there was no way to deal with it! It would be ruined!
Ah Qian came up and asked, "Do you use a teleprompter?"
Zhang Ye shook his head, "There's no need."
Ah Qian and Little Yu, "…"
An old comrade came over, "Little Zhang, you are too rash. There is a reason why all online television stations do not do live broadcasts. It's because it's too difficult!"
Zhang Ye smiled, "I'll give it a try."
Everyone persuaded him for a long time, but Zhang Ye did not listen. He had already made up his mind.
Actually, Zhang Ye also knew that Feng Guiqin wanted him to do a live broadcast so that he could continue to increase the influence of their online television station. At the same time, Zhang Ye knew that if others could not do it, but they managed to do it, it would be extremely beneficial to him. It would indeed make his program even more popular!
Afraid?
Timid?
Zhang Ye did not have such emotions!
In his world, there was a saying. A singer who did not dare to hold a concert and sing live was not considered a singer.
Similarly, a host who did not dare to do a live broadcast … no matter how famous he was, he was not considered an excellent host!
If his goal was to be a normal host to make a living, then so be it. But he was not. He wanted to go higher, so Zhang Ye wanted to give it a try!
Live broadcast?
Did not dare?
There's nothing I don't dare to do!
