After Lin Che said that, he turned around and walked out.
Xue Yang got up, looked at them indifferently, and left as well.
Cheng Yuantu was indeed indignant. He looked at them and left as well.
Although Liang Shan was holding back his anger, he felt that the humiliation had been wasted because it didn't seem to hurt the other party at all. Hence, he stood there and watched unwillingly.
But …
"Sister Che, oh right, I forgot to tell you. Our latest epic drama, 'Queen of the Morning Sun', is about to air. Our Yufei is still the female lead. I heard that the TV station bought your drama to air, but now they feel that there's a conflict in the theme, so they're going to air our drama first."
Conflict in the theme …
Because they couldn't air two TV series in a row at the same time, or else it would divide the audience. It wouldn't be easy to highlight the focus, and it wouldn't be easy to concentrate the viewership. Hence, they would usually stagger the two TV series, one at the front and one at the back, with an unimportant modern motherly drama in between. This way, they could ensure that the viewership ratings for the whole year would be maintained, and not go up and down all at once.
So, the TV station was going to air their drama first and delay 'Light'?
Lin Che hadn't heard of this. His expression changed as he looked at him.
Liang Shan said, "Ah, Sister Che, don't tell me you don't know? It's like this. They just called me to inform me. I thought you already knew. Why don't you go and ask?"
Of course, Liang Shan already knew about it because they had told the other party that they would air 'Queen of the Morning Sun' once Wu Yufei's performance was good. They wanted to strike while the iron was hot.
Lin Che looked deeply at the man who was smiling with his eyes squinted and snorted. Then, he walked out.
In the office.
Lin Che asked, "The TV station really wants us to delay the broadcast?"
"That's right." Yu Minmin said, "How did you know? I just received the call and didn't have time to tell you."
Lin Che told her what Liang Shan had said.
Yu Minmin said, "It seems like they're behind this."
Lin Che said, "I'll call and ask first."
Yu Minmin was also listening at the side, watching Lin Che make the call.
The call went through very quickly.
"Assistant Lin, why did I hear that our drama has been pushed back to 'Light'?"
For such a big star, the TV station would still coax them, especially the staff.
"Lin Che, your call came at the right time. I wanted to tell you personally previously. It's like this, we feel that since your TV series is a major TV series, we want to wait until later to air it. We will have some reality shows next month. When that time comes, we can advertise it in the reality shows."
"Oh, really?" she said.
The other side had indeed known that they would ask, so they had already found an excuse.
But what they didn't know was that Liang Shan had already revealed it, so how could Lin Che not know that it was an excuse?
She said, "That's against the rules, isn't it? That's not how the contract is signed. Our promotional schedule, book fair, and in-game promotional schedule have all been arranged. Isn't it a little inappropriate for you to ask us to change our schedule now?"
"This is your problem. It has nothing to do with our TV station. I can't do anything about it. I'm just a part-time worker. I can't decide anything."
They were pushing the responsibility to the higher-ups again.
Lin Che had long seen through these tactics. He sneered and said, "How about this? Let's terminate the contract. We don't mind selling to other TV stations."
With that, Lin Che hung up the phone resolutely.
Yu Minmin said, "Are you looking for an excuse again?"
"That's right. It looks like they've already arranged for the promotion of the TV Queen. That's why they took down our TV series."
The Best Actress in the Movie Awards was the Movie Queen, and the Best Actress in the TV Series Awards was the Television Queen. So now that the Television Queen was Wu Yufei, the TV station must have arranged for the promotion of Wu Yufei as the Television Queen to strike while the iron was hot, so that the new TV series after the new Television Queen would also become a topic of conversation. That was why they chose this time to quickly put Wu Yufei's TV series on the air.
Yu Minmin said, "Then what do we do now?"
"Our game and the book fair can't be delayed. We're already preparing for the promotion. We have to broadcast it at the originally scheduled broadcast time. Let's find another TV station to sign the contract."
"Aiya, really. Panda TV is the TV station with the best ratings. If they bought it, it would have a huge impact on our ratings."
Because of the Panda TV Festival and some other programs, Panda TV's ratings had always been very high in the country. It was also because they were so famous that they dared to make a move on their TV series. Moreover, they had always felt that Lin Che and the others did not dare to offend the TV station, so they had the confidence to push the date of their TV series back.
However. Lin Che's TV series and the game were one. What they did not know was that the game was also hers. She had to be responsible for the game. Therefore, if it couldn't be broadcast on time, she would definitely give up on Panda TV and sell it to another TV station to broadcast it.
Lin Che quickly found another TV station. When they saw that it was such a big production, they immediately accepted it and said that they could broadcast it immediately.
Lin Che's promotional work began immediately. However, there was a problem. Their TV series would definitely clash with Panda TV's "Queen of the Morning Sun".
Yu Minmin was naturally a little worried. "Panda TV's promotions and hype have always been very good, so the ratings of every TV series are quite good. We have to be careful now."
Lin Che said, "That can't be helped. However, we don't expect to surpass Queen of the Morning Sun. As long as the ratings can be at the top, it will be considered a success."
However, at this time, "Queen of the Morning Sun" once again did not play by the rules. Two days before the broadcast of "Light", they directly broadcast a promotional video on Panda TV, showing some of the highlights of the set and some of the highlights of the movie.
Through the exquisite editing, the TV series was very effective and the topic was immediately swept up.
The production of the TV series was not bad and overall received very high ratings.
Panda TV was very happy and added a few more promotions in one go.
On the other hand, Lin Che's side was a little more conspicuous.
They were caught unprepared for the broadcast time slot and many people were not very optimistic about it.
They were also very sad. Although it was a big production with two big names, Gu Jingyu and Lin Che, they just had to bump into such a big IP production with such good momentum. Moreover, it was broadcast on Panda TV. Panda TV had a few mainstay variety shows and was perennially the number one show in the country. What should they do now for "Light"?
