The conference room of the CCTV building was brightly lit. Zhao Wuyan, the director of the CCTV, was holding an emergency meeting. The people sitting below were all the backbone of the CCTV.
Zhao Wuyan said with a serious look, "Everyone, what should we do about the Spring Festival Gala?"
Since the year before last, when major TV stations began to prepare for the gala, watching the Spring Festival Gala on New Year's Eve had become a favorite of Hua Xia people.
Last year, CCTV invited countless stars to hold a super luxurious Spring Festival Gala, which won countless praises. The audience rating reached more than 20%, which made CCTV taste the sweetness.
Just as they were about to make further efforts to hold a bigger gala, they got into big trouble.
Since foreign TV stations entered Hua Xia, they had done everything they could to increase the audience rating. CCTV was the one that was affected the most.
Among them, NNC and NBC in the United States were the most powerful. Sometimes, the audience rating could even exceed that of CCTV.
This time, both of them were eyeing the Spring Festival, the most important festival of Hua Xia. They were going to hold a gala together and broadcast it live on TV.
Before CCTV took action, they had contacted many Hua Xia entertainment companies and signed performance contracts with many big stars. At the same time, they also invited many international singers, stars, circuses, magicians, and so on from the United States, in the hope of suppressing CCTV.
When CCTV found out what they were doing in private, it was too late.
Zhao Wuyan was so annoyed that he scolded the deputy director in charge of the Spring Festival Gala. Fortunately, there were many stars in Hua Xia, so there was no shortage of people. However, compared with the other party, they were obviously inferior.
Zhao Wuyan was very anxious. If the gala held by CCTV was defeated by two foreign TV stations on the festive day of the Spring Festival, he would lose face.
Some time ago, Zhao Wuyan ordered all the major local TV stations to select programs. After three consecutive days, only four programs were found to be good and were retained. The other programs were rejected.
In fact, Zhao Wuyan knew very well that these TV stations also had their own plans. There was no way they would give up their best programs. Otherwise, what would happen to their viewership ratings?
Now, there were only three days left before the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala. Zhao Wuyan was a little anxious.
"Director, although we have invited many Hua Xia superstars like Ye Yongren, Chen Huan, and Yao Na, there is still a big gap between our appeal and theirs. If they wanted to turn the tide, they had to invite an artist who could really make all of Hua Xia look forward to it. Only in this way can we have hope of winning, "said the director of the Spring Festival Gala, Hu Runze.
Zhao Wuyan frowned and asked, "Who are you talking about?"
Hu Runze clearly had a draft in mind. He said, "Mr. Xiao Yunhai. If we can invite him to perform in one or two programs, we will definitely be able to achieve very good results. "
Deputy Station Head Lu Mang said, "I agree with Director Hu's opinion. Xiao Yunhai used his own music to destroy the entire North American music scene. His album sold 130 million copies, breaking all the records in the world music history. In the hearts of the Hua Xia audience, he was a national hero. If he can participate in our Spring Festival Gala, the ratings will definitely skyrocket. It's just that Mr. Xiao has not been interested in these galas since his debut. I'm afraid it will be very difficult to invite him. "
Zhao Wuyan knocked on the table and frowned. "No matter how difficult it is, we have to do it. I'll personally invite Mr. Xiao tomorrow morning. By the way, is the work of the skit king, Zhao Banshan, ready? He is also unique in the eyes of the people all over the country. "
Hu Runze shook his head and said, "We have already written five drafts, but none of them are satisfactory."
Zhao Wuyan said, "Ask more skit writers to help and finalize the work as soon as possible. As for the other programs … "
The CCTV meeting lasted for a full two hours before it ended.
At nine o 'clock the next morning, Xiao Yuanyang and Zhao Wuyan came to Xiao Yunhai's villa.
Zhao Wuyan knew very well that although he was the director of CCTV, he was obviously far from enough to ask Xiao Yunhai to come out. Not to mention the Xiao family, Xiao Yunhai's halo alone was enough to make him not need to give face to him at all.
Therefore, Zhao Wuyan pulled Xiao Yuanyang over.
In the past two days, Xiao Yuanyang's family of three lived at Xiao Yunhai's place.
Seeing Xiao Yuanyang come back, Xiao Yunhai said happily, "Brother, you're on a stroll. Why are you back? "
Xiao Yuanyang said grumpily, "Cut the crap. Director Zhao needs your help. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Hello, Director Zhao. Please come in."
Zhao Wuyan smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, sorry to disturb you."
The three of them walked into the living room. Zhao Wuyan saw Xiao Leshan, who was teasing the child at a glance. His face immediately turned serious and he stepped forward and said respectfully, "Hello, Mr. Xiao."
Xiao Yuanyang introduced Zhao Wuyan to Xiao Leshan.
Xiao Leshan waved his hand and said with a smile, "Xiao Zhao, you can talk about whatever you want. Don't worry about me."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Director Zhao, let's go to the sofa and talk. Grandpa, the child's skin is tender. Don't scratch her. "
Xiao Leshan said, "I don't need you to tell me that. Go about your business."
The three of them sat on the sofa and Wen Xia made them a cup of tea.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Director Zhao, I wonder why you're looking for me?"
At this time, Zhao Wuyan regretted coming to Xiao Yunhai's place. If he had known that Old Master Xiao was here, he would never have dared to come.
At this time, Zhao Wuyan had no choice but to bite the bullet and said to Xiao Yunhai, "Mr. Xiao, this time I want to ask you to help CCTV no matter what."
Xiao Yunhai was stunned and said, "What do you mean, Director Zhao?"
Zhao Wuyan told him about the Spring Festival Gala and said, "It's our fault. If the foreign TV station wins the ratings during the Spring Festival, the whole Hua Xia TV station will really lose face. That's why we want to ask Mr. Xiao to save the day. "
Xiao Yunhai said in surprise, "I didn't expect those foreign TV stations to be so awesome. Brother, when you were the Director of the Film and Television Bureau, why didn't you set some barriers for them? "
Xiao Yuanyang said, "It's not as simple as you think. These foreign TV stations are very powerful. If we deliberately make trouble for them, our Hua Xia's international reputation will be ruined. Besides, when we asked to set up the Yanhuang Cinema, we did pay a price. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "So that's how it is. Director Zhao, I'm just an artist. Even if I agree, what's the point? "
Zhao Wuyan saw that there seemed to be a chance, so he hurriedly said, "Mr. Xiao, your position in the hearts of Hua Xia's audience is unparalleled. They don't expect anything else from you. With your strong appeal, as long as you can participate in the performance, we will have the confidence to fight with them. Mr. Xiao, please do help us. "
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "Director Zhao, I don't think I'm that good. Besides, I'm out all day long. It's the Spring Festival, and I just want to sit with my family and have a reunion dinner. I really don't want to participate in any performance. "
Zhao Wuyan hurriedly said, "Mr. Xiao, we can put your performance at the beginning. It won't delay your reunion with your family."
Xiao Yunhai took a sip of tea and said, "I'm really sorry. Director Zhao, please find someone else."
