The netizens were also going crazy!
"2.98%! Your sister! "
"This is too fucking scary!"
"More than a decade ago, before we entered the Internet era, when the people mainly relied on television and radio for entertainment, there were still people who could achieve a viewership rating of close to 3%. But in this era of the Internet, where televisions are no longer a household necessity, the only program team that can achieve such a viewership rating can only be Zhang Ye's team. The person who can achieve such a viewership rating can only be Zhang Ye!"
"Cheers for Zhang Ye!"
"This is a miracle that has never happened before in history!"
"I'm guessing that the other television stations are already dumbfounded from watching this!"
"Yeah, I used to think that this was the highest achievement a documentary could achieve, at most breaking 2% in the viewership ratings. Who could have thought that A Bite of China would shock everyone once again in its final episode? It's already at this level, yet the viewership ratings can still soar?"
"I love A Bite of China! It was so good! "
"This is the best documentary in history!"
"Will there be a second season?"
"Don't end it yet! Watching Central TV Documentary Channel every weekend has already become a habit of mine! "
"Pleading for a sequel!"
"Teacher Zhang, if there's a chance in the future, let's film a second season!"
"I really can't bear to see A Bite of China end!"
"I can't bear to see it end either. This should be Zhang Ye's last show at Central TV. After the new year, his contract with Central TV will also expire soon."
Yao Jiancai posted on Weibo: "Congratulations to Old Bro for a perfect ending to your show!"
A domestic documentary director: "A Bite of China will probably become a mountain that will never be surpassed in the history of documentaries. I wish Zhang Ye all the best and hope that he will get better and better in the future!"
Dong Shanshan: "Congratulations, old classmate."
Yu Yingyi: "Zhang Ye — the most talented person in the history of Media College, the best director of the hosting world, the best mathematician in the directing world, the best literary scholar in the mathematics world, and the best host in the literary world!"
Zhang Xia: "Wishing Little Zhang a new record."
Fan Wenli: "Looking forward to Teacher Zhang's crosstalk performance on Beijing TV's Spring Festival Gala."
The popularity of A Bite of China had also boosted the confidence of the entire industry in the niche programming format of documentaries. On the day A Bite of China ended, many television stations or production companies had already put the documentary on their schedules. There were even some television stations that had already announced the broadcast time. Guangxi Television Station would be releasing a documentary called "Into the World of Delicacies" next week, Guangdong Television Station would be releasing "Village Delicacies" next month, and Shandong Television Station would be spending a lot of money to create a food documentary called "Gluttonous" about to start filming. All of these were riding on the momentum of A Bite of China.
When A Bite of China was still broadcasting, they naturally would not go on it. This was because everyone knew that no matter how much they filmed, they would not be able to match up to A Bite of China and would not be able to compete with it. Therefore, when A Bite of China finished its broadcast, countless food documentaries were launched one after another and the promotions were in full swing.
Some experts called this phenomenon the post- "A Bite of China" era.
…
This morning.
Taoran Pavilion.
Wu Zeqing's house.
"Old Wu, I'm here."
"Come in."
"Where are the slippers?"
"There's no need to change. Let's go in."
Inside the house, Wu Zeqing did not turn around. She was currently fiddling with a bunch of bags of various sizes. From the looks of it, it looked like some kind of packaging for clothes and pants. Old Wu was dressed in casual attire. She was wearing black tights and a gray knitted sweater. She looked especially gentle and elegant.
Zhang Ye walked over. "What are you doing?"
"I bought some clothes for you." Wu Zeqing took out a piece of clothing and threw the packaging aside. She picked up the clothes and stretched them out. Then she gestured at Zhang Ye and said with a smile, "Here, try it on."
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "Why did you buy clothes for me again?"
Wu Zeqing said, "I was afraid that you wouldn't have any clothes to wear."
"I haven't really worn the clothes you bought for me the last time," Zhang Ye said.
Wu Zeqing said, "It's the new year and you don't even buy clothes for yourself. If I don't buy them for you, who will?"
That was true. Ever since Zhang Ye had embarked on the path of the entertainment industry, he had basically not gone to the mall since there were too many people around. Most of his current clothes were actually bought by Wu Zeqing. There were also skincare products, coupons, shopping cards, and so on from the SARFT, which Old Wu often gave to him. She didn't really use them as half of the benefits that the SARFT gave to the department heads went into Zhang Ye's pocket. As a matter of fact, Zhang Ye was once the number one person on the SARFT's blacklist. He was now a key target of observation. If the people at the SARFT knew that all of the benefits that the SARFT received were given to him by Zhang Ye, who knew what they would think?
No matter how you thought about it, it was quite ironic.
"Alright, I'll give it a try then." Zhang Ye also gave her a small box. "This is Da Hong Pao. I got it for you."
Wu Zeqing smiled when she heard that. "When you gave it to me the last time, I didn't even know what kind of tea it was. It was only after I saw the news that I finally understood. No wonder you kept reminding me not to give it to others. So it's a famous tea from ancient times. There are only a few parent trees left in the world? It's better that you keep it for yourself. It would be a waste to give it to me. "
Zhang Ye said, "Just drink it, drink as much as you want. I have a lot of it with me anyway. I'll give you as many catties as you want. It's not a problem at all!"
Look, this fellow gave it to others by the gram, but to Old Wu, he gave it to her by the catty.
This was the difference!
Zhang Ye started trying on the clothes. There was nothing to be embarrassed about in front of Old Wu. He was also wearing long johns inside anyway, so he just tried them on piece by piece. Old Wu was really considerate. She even bought two new sets of long johns and socks for him, including a coat, a top, pants, and shoes.
They chatted as they tried them on.
"Has the program finished?"
"It just finished."
"Then we're just waiting for the new year?"
"Hai, what? I haven't finished my crosstalk for the Spring Festival Gala yet."
"You're not ready yet?"
"Not yet. I haven't thought of what to say yet."
"Is there nothing in your head?"
"That's not it. It's just that I don't have the energy to do it anymore."
"What do you mean by you don't have the energy to do it?"
Zhang Ye explained, "In the past, when I did crosstalk, it was always based on my anger, anger, or resentment. When I did crosstalk, it was always aimed at scolding people. It was either scolding the crosstalk world or Central TV's Spring Festival Gala. But recently, I've scolded all the people I should scold and fought all the fights I should. I've been listening all over the world these past few days, but no one dares to provoke me anymore. Instead, I don't know what crosstalk I should do anymore."
Wu Zeqing laughed. "Why are you always thinking about fighting?"
Zhang Ye said, "I'm used to it. If someone dares to provoke me, I can just do a crosstalk and scold them for an entire day and night. I don't even have to repeat the same thing. But now that there's nothing going on, I don't really know how to do it. Beijing Television has been rushing me for my performance. They've already had their second rehearsal, but I haven't even prepared any work yet. Look." He pointed to his lips. "I've been so anxious these past few days that my lips are blistering."
"Let me apply some eye ointment for you." Wu Zeqing went to the second floor and came back down very quickly with the ointment.
Zhang Ye continued, "I'm still fretting right now. Old Yao has also called me several times. My task before the new year is to finish writing the crosstalk script for Beijing TV's Spring Festival Gala."
Old Wu squeezed some eye ointment onto her finger and gently applied it for him. "I've been going online recently to see some of the netizens' comments about you. A lot of people like your crosstalk and say that it's very cathartic. But there's also a small group of people who don't like it. They feel that your crosstalk is too violent and that you're always fighting with someone."
Zhang Ye said embarrassedly, "That's always been my style."
Wu Zeqing glanced at him and said with a smile, "I've been meaning to ask you this too. Don't tell me that you can't do crosstalk if you don't scold people? I really don't believe it. "
"Of course I can," Zhang Ye said without even thinking.
Wu Zeqing said, "So why can't you just do it properly for once?"
"Properly?" Zhang Ye blinked.
Wu Zeqing pinched the eye ointment and said with a smile, "Let everyone see that even if you don't scold people, you can still do crosstalk well!"
Zhang Ye fell silent. After thinking for a full minute, he suddenly slapped his thigh and said loudly, "Alright! I'll listen to you! I'll show this bunch of people! I'll open up the eyes of the crosstalk world! There's no crosstalk that I can't do! "
Wu Zeqing smiled and said, "You've got the fighting spirit now?"
"Yes!"
"You've got the spirit?"
"Yes! I've thought of what to say! "
Saying that, Zhang Ye picked up his cell phone and called Yao Jiancai first.
Du du. The call connected.
Yao Jiancai's voice came through. "Zhang 'er, what's up?"
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "Old Yao, I've thought it through! Let's do a proper crosstalk performance for Beijing TV's Spring Festival Gala this time! We'll criticize the evils of the times and broaden their horizons! "
Yao Jiancai was taken aback. "Properly?"
Zhang Ye said, "Yes!"
Yao Jiancai questioned, "Can you do it?"
Zhang Ye was floored. "Why can't I? Do you also think that I only know how to scold people and smack their faces in crosstalk? "
