It was too ruthless!
It was too cruel!
This was the f * * king trend of trying to get everything!
This was what many of the Central TV staff were thinking at this moment!
An emergency meeting was held at the venue.
"Will the machine work or not?"
"If this goes on, how are we going to organize the lucky draw!"
"Could it have been hacked by some hackers?"
"Hurry up and figure out what the problem is!"
"Will the prizes from before still count? If it doesn't work, can we take them back? "
"Everyone has already moved out, so how are we going to take them back?"
"I suggest that we change the rules of the lucky draw. Those who have already won a prize will be removed from the list of nominees and will not be allowed to participate in the next lucky draw."
"It's too late to change it now!"
Jiang Naixiong, Jiang Yuan, and several of the directors from the Spring Festival Gala also came over. With the current situation, many of the executives did not look too good. In their opinion, even if it were anyone else who won all 40 prizes, it wouldn't be a problem and they wouldn't care. But why did it have to be Zhang Ye! Why did it have to be this guy who they did not want to see the most, the one who gave them the biggest headache!?
Many of the executives started to give suggestions.
Chen Ye also came up with a rotten idea. His words were very critical. "I feel that it would be unfair if all the prizes were taken by Zhang Ye. Now that no one else has a chance to participate, everyone will have a lot of complaints about it. Why don't we just take back the prizes and change to a new machine for the lucky draw? We can leave the prizes for everyone. This is also our responsibility to everyone and is considering the big picture. Zhang Ye and the people from Department 14 will definitely understand."
They will understand?
Deputy Station Head Zhou gave Chen Ye a look.
One was Yan Tianfei, and the other was Zhang Ye. These were the two people with the worst tempers in the entire Central TV department. Did you expect them to understand? Bullsh * t! When the time came, who knew what kind of trouble they would cause! This year's annual staff party was already messy enough. Did you think that it wasn't messy enough?
Although Deputy Station Head Zhou was also very angry, he did not agree with Chen Ye's plan.
The situation had reached a stalemate.
Originally, every company's annual staff party's lucky draw method was different. Some smaller companies would just draw a ball and write the employee's name on it, then place it in a box to be drawn. As long as the person was chosen, the ball would be taken out and they would not be able to participate in the rest of the lucky draw. Some companies also use computers to draw prizes, and each person is limited to winning one prize. But in this world, Central TV's annual party did not have such a restriction. Because there were too many people and the probability was too low, it was almost impossible for a single person to hit the jackpot twice, thrice, or even four times in a row. Therefore, this old rule had always been followed and never changed. If he were to suddenly change the rules of the lucky draw, it would be a little too deliberate and a little ugly. Moreover, this kind of rule change needed to be implemented in the computer software. If he were to change the program now, he didn't know if it was too late.
The performance on the stage was coming to an end.
At Department 14's table.
Little Wang kept looking at the front row. "It looks like they're going to take back the prizes!"
Huang Dandan's eyes widened. "Can I still take back what I've already given?"
Tong Fu said, "If the station head were to win 40 prizes in a row, they would definitely not accept it. They would probably even try to suck up to him and say that he's really lucky. But that might not necessarily be the case for Director Zhang. It's not like you guys haven't seen the station's attitude towards him. They can make any decision!"
Ha Qiqi looked at Zhang Ye. "Director Zhang?"
But Zhang Ye did not mind at all. It did not matter to him whether he took back the prizes or not. He was sitting here today to slap their faces! He was here to make things difficult for that group of people!
The performance ended.
Right at this moment, several of the technicians suddenly exclaimed.
"Aiya!"
"We've found the problem! We've found it! "
"So there's a conflict with one of the built-in parameters!"
"No wonder!"
"This parameter was reset earlier!"
Chen Ye hurried over. "Can it be fixed?"
That technician immediately nodded and said, "Yes, it can be fixed immediately!"
Jiang Naixiong said with a dark expression, "What's wrong with you all? It's such an important annual party, why didn't you check it beforehand? You only found the problem after two rounds of the lucky draw? "
An assistant director of the Spring Festival Gala production team said coldly, "Hurry up and fix it!"
The technicians said helplessly, "Alright, it'll be fixed very soon!"
A secretary reported to the station heads, "We've found the problem!"
Deputy Station Head Zhou heaved a sigh of relief. They had finally found the root of the problem. Otherwise, if this were to continue, they and Central TV would lose all face!
The male and female hosts onstage also received the news.
The female host said with a professional smile, "Everyone, please wait for a few minutes. Our technicians have just found the problem with the lucky draw software and will be able to fix it very soon."
The male host smiled and said, "That gave me a fright. So it was really a problem with the software."
The female host smiled and said, "Yeah, I was also shocked. I was wondering how Director Zhang's luck could be so heaven-defying that I was even prepared to become his disciple."
"Why would you want to become his disciple?" the male host asked.
The female host said, "To rub off some of Director Zhang's luck. In the future, I won't have to work anymore and will stay at home to buy sports lottery tickets every day!"
The male host said in amusement, "You wish!"
Everyone laughed.
The station heads also couldn't help but laugh.
The relaxed atmosphere immediately returned.
"So that's how it is!"
"There's really a problem!"
"We've finally found the problem."
"I knew it! How could this be luck! "
"There should be no more problems this time, right?"
"Then will the prizes from before still be counted? Should we redo the lucky draw? "
"I don't think so."
"Forget it. The prizes at the back are getting bigger and bigger, so it doesn't matter anymore."
"I doubt there will be a redo of the lucky draw. The prizes have already been given out, so how can we redo it?"
"Come on, we really have to rely on our luck this time!"
"I think it's a cell phone at the bottom?"
"Wow, this is good, this is good! I've been waiting for this! "
"My luck, it's time to shine!"
The technicians finally solved the problem. After everyone understood the reason, they were no longer as frightened. Their anticipation for the prizes exploded once again as everyone was eager to give it a try!
Yu Yingyi looked relieved. So that was the reason.
Yan Tianfei, Ha Qiqi, Zhang Zuo, and the others also understood why Zhang Ye had won so many prizes consecutively.
Yan Tianfei's secretary said to Zhang Ye with a smile, "Actually, the system error caused Director Zhang's name to appear on the screen. Isn't that also a form of luck?"
A minute later.
The technician was sweating profusely. "It's done! It's fixed! "
Another technician said, "We can begin now!"
Chen Ye asked, "Have you verified it?"
"Yes, we've verified it." That person said, "It will definitely work this time!"
After the female host had a brief exchange with the audience, she immediately said, "Alright, sorry to keep everyone waiting. Now that the problem has been completely solved, thank you to our colleagues from the technical department. You've worked hard."
The male host smiled. "Let's have a look at the big screen. I believe that a lot of you have been waiting for the next prize!"
On the big screen, the prize was revealed!
It was a cell phone!
It was America's latest smartphone model and also the world's best-selling high-end and popular cell phone — the Chinese translation of the name was "Yuanbo"!
There were a total of 20 of them!
There were already cries from the audience.
"It's really a 'Yuanbo'!"
"I really want it!"
"I wanted to change it last year, but I didn't have the money to buy it!"
"And this is even the latest model, the Yuanbo 8V!"
"20 of them! Awesome! "
"This year's prizes are too awesome! There's also more of them than in previous years! "
"Let me win one of them! My old Yuanbo 6T model should have been eliminated a long time ago! "
"I'm still using the Yuanbo 5! I couldn't bear to change it! "
After resolving the problems with the lucky draw software, everyone was in high spirits!
Zhang Ye looked up and took a look. He had also heard of this cell phone before. This was the highest-selling high-end smartphone in this world. If he had to compare it to his previous world, it was probably equivalent to Apple's iPhone's status in his previous world. It was almost at the level of dominance and was extremely popular! The price was naturally not cheap either. It was even more expensive than the iPhone in his previous world. The Yuanbo 8V model was sold for 8,999 yuan in the mainland of China!
It was almost 9,000 yuan!
Even the Spring Festival Gala production team staff were very excited.
"This time, Zhang Ye won't have anything to do with it!"
"20 of them. We still have a chance of winning one of them!"
"Hopefully we can win one of them!"
"Yeah, it's more than a month's salary for me!"
"Let's see whose luck is better this time, haha!"
"After working so hard for the Spring Festival Gala for more than two months, they should at least give us some benefits."
"Hahaha, if you ask me, I think we should just give all 20 of them to our Spring Festival Gala production team!" The Spring Festival Gala's Assistant Director, Xu Yipeng, also teased his colleagues.
The female host laughed and said, "Looks like everyone's appetite has been whetted. Chen Ye, the microphone is yours."
At the side of the stage, Chen Ye gave a slight smile and said, "Alright, everyone has already seen the prizes. It's this Yuanbo 8V model. Since we've all been waiting for it, then let's not waste any more time and get started." Saying that, Chen Ye pressed the start button just like before. The 20 prize windows on the big screen started moving.
Everyone tensed up as hundreds of eyes stared intently at the screen.
Chen Ye looked at the station heads' table. "Sir."
The Station Head smiled and waved it off. "We can't keep letting the few of us shout. This time, let our comrades from the Spring Festival Gala production team shout for us to stop. Let's all participate in this."
Deputy Station Head Zhou, who was in charge of Central TV Department 1, said, "Right, Old Xu, you guys can do it."
Xu Yipeng smiled and looked at the Spring Festival Gala's executive director.
The executive director said a few polite words and did not say anything else. "Alright then."
Everyone in the audience was watching without blinking.
Little Wang clasped her hands together. "Mine, mine! Mine, mine! "
Ha Qiqi smiled and said, "I've just switched to a domestic cell phone and it's quite comfortable with it, so I don't intend to switch to another cell phone. Director Zhang, if I get one, I'll give it to you as a gift. I can't just take a set of cosmetics from you for free."
Zhang Ye smiled. "Sure."
When Huang Dandan heard that, she also said proactively, "Uh, if I get two sets, I'll definitely give one to Director Zhang. I've already taken the prepaid gift card and the cosmetics."
Suddenly, the executive director of the Spring Festival Gala said, "Let's stop right here!"
Chen Ye pressed the start button and then turned around to look at the screen.
The station heads and the Spring Festival Gala production team's staff also looked over!
One second.
Two seconds.
Three seconds.
The entire venue fell silent!
Yu Yingyi was holding a bottle of sports drink and drinking it. When she saw the screen from the corner of her eye, she suddenly spat out the water in her mouth!
Deputy Station Head Zhou's face fell!
Jiang Naixiong looked shocked!
Xu Yipeng looked like his tail had been stepped on!
The Spring Festival Gala production team's staff also fainted!
Zhang Ye!
It was still Zhang Ye!
Ha Qiqi was dumbfounded. "Holy shit!"
Yan Tianfei's secretary nearly vomited blood!
