Thursday morning.
The previous day's program's listenership ratings were out.
Today, the person announcing the listenership ratings was not Director Zhao Guozhou, but the rookie, Jia Yan. It was obvious that Director Zhao had the intention of nurturing him.
Jia Yan held the form and said to everyone, "The Leader has handed this task to me. I'm actually quite nervous, because I always feel that announcing the listenership ratings is a job that offends people. Hur Hur." Tian Bin and Wu Datao laughed kindly and cooperated with him.
What's so funny?
Zhang Ye scoffed. He thought to himself, "Your sense of humor is too low. You can laugh at anything?"
"First place, 'Talk About the World'."
"Second place, 'Entertainment Daily'."
"Third place, 'Late-night Ghost Stories'."
There were no changes to the previous rankings. They were already fixed.
Zhang Ye was concerned about the listenership ratings of "Old and Young Story Club". This was because he only had this segment now. Not only him, Teacher Feng, who had hosted "Old and Young Story Club" for many years, was equally concerned. He did not believe in Zhang Ye's heroic words. He did not believe that the dream he had failed to achieve all these years could be completed by him. However, Zhang Ye's impassioned words had infected Teacher Feng. He was looking forward to it.
Tenth place …
Twentieth place …
When Jia Yan reached the end, Zhang Ye's segment finally appeared. It was unknown if it was intentional, but the corners of his mouth twitched, "Last place, 'Old and Young Story Club'. Listenership rating: 0.28%!" Last place again! Last place again! This was not only the last place in the Literature Channel. Even in the entire Beijing Radio Station's channels, it was definitely in the bottom three!
Teacher Feng sighed. He knew this would be the result.
Zhang Ye nearly cursed. Holy sh * t! Was it that bad? This was "Snow White"! The most awesome fairy tale in his world! Did it need to be so ridiculous? The listenership rating was still a pitiful few tenths of a percent? There was no change from the past? That shouldn't be the case! The story of 'Ghost Blows Out the Light' and the poems he threw out had already proved that the cultures of the two worlds could be interchangeable. How could it not be!?
Tian Bin gave Zhang Ye a sideways glance.
Li Si and Wu Datao also looked at Zhang Ye's expression.
Following that, they and the others did not say anything. They did not even mock him, as they felt that it was a matter of course. No one took Zhang Ye's "bold words" to heart. Nowadays, fairy tales had already been told too many times. There were only so many. Ignoring the children, even the adults could recite them backwards. In such an environment, you still wanted to make "Old and Young Story Club" popular? They could only chuckle.
After the results were announced, everyone started to work.
Zhang Ye had arranged to meet at Recording Studio 4 at 10 PM and was about to head over.
Teacher Feng called out to him from behind. After hesitating for a long while, he said, "Forget it, Little Zhang. This might be your last few episodes. If you try your best, there won't be any regrets."
Zhang Ye did not answer and quietly entered the recording studio.
Forget it? Impossible! The word 'calculate' did not exist in his dictionary! Even if the entire world did not approve of him, even if everyone felt that he could not do it, Zhang Ye would still stick to his beliefs and principles. He would do his best to do what he wanted to do the best he could!
He began recording!
Zhang Ye was very professional. Even if his emotions were up and down, the moment he pushed away his earphones, he would put on a proper expression. He said with a warm smile, "Hello, little friends. Welcome to today's' Old and Young Story Club '. I don't know if yesterday's Snow White's story was good, or if it made you think about what kind of person you want to be when you grow up. Today, I will bring you another story."
"Old and Young Story Club" was the same as the previous "Late-night Ghost Stories". It was a program without any advertising sponsorship, so the listenership was too low. Hence, Zhang Ye did not need to record advertisements like the last few episodes of "Ghost Blows Out the Light". He could just tell the story directly.
"Many years ago, there was an Emperor. In order to dress beautifully, he did not hesitate to spend all his money. He did not care about his army, nor did he like to go to the theater. He also did not like to take a horse carriage to the park. Unless it was to show off his new clothes. He would change into a new set of clothes every day at one o 'clock. When people mentioned him, they would always say, 'The Emperor is in the changing room.' "
Someone had guessed it!
Yes, this was the famous fairytale-like story from Zhang Ye's world. It had even appeared in the language textbooks, "News Broadcast"!
Alright, I won't joke about this in the future. I definitely won't joke about it!
Well, the name of the fairytale-like story was called new … called "The Emperor's New Clothes"!
"'He really isn't wearing any clothes!' In the end, all the commoners said. The Emperor trembled a little, because he felt that what the commoners said seemed to be true. But in his heart, he thought, 'I have to finish this parade.' Hence, he put on an even prouder air. His eunuchs followed behind him, holding a non-existent skirt in their hands. "The story ended.
… …
After leaving the recording studio, Zhang Ye went to the restroom.
Teacher Feng was smoking in the restroom, "You finished recording?"
"Yes." Zhang Ye walked over to relieve himself.
However, the moment he approached, a few of his colleagues from the Literature Channel scattered. Tian Bin was also at the urinal. He did not even pull up his pants properly as he ran far away. Only then did he pull up his zipper and walk around Zhang Ye out of the restroom. The others did the same.
The restroom was suddenly empty!
Teacher Feng could not help but laugh, "Look at your popularity."
Zhang Ye felt extremely innocent, "Am I that scary?"
"What do you think? Wasn't the office creepy enough that day? I know it was a coincidence, but it was too much of a coincidence. Once, thrice, or five times. Who wouldn't shiver when they see that? Hur Hur, it's only because we have a good relationship. If not, who wouldn't think twice about offending you? " After joking for a while, Teacher Feng saw that the surroundings were quiet, so he said, "I know you have tried your best. The program's matter doesn't matter. I was already mentally prepared. I also knew that this program wouldn't last long. Jia Yan is a relative of the Station Leader. If his program wants to go on, no one can stop him!"
However, Zhang Ye's attitude was very clear, "Teacher Feng, I don't think anything is impossible. This reason, that factor, they are all excuses. I don't believe I can't fix them! I don't believe our program's listenership ratings will never increase! "Late-night Ghost Stories" was brought up by me. What did everyone say about this program in the past? They all said it wasn't good, and the results were even worse than "Old and Young Story Club". But now? I've used my hard work to bring it up! I can make the worst program on the channel into the top three in listenership ratings. Now, I can make "Old and Young Story Club" into the top three in listenership ratings! "
