Yang Yi was a hands-off boss, but his subordinates did not just eat and not work! For the sake of this exciting show and to perform well in front of their new boss, the people from China Star Productions worked hard like machines that had been filled with oil after receiving Yang Yi's proposal.
They were highly efficient. Not only did Yang Yi receive the rearranged proposal, but the scriptwriters who were motivated to fight had also put in their best effort and began to design a few episodes' plots according to the patterns that Yang Yi had drawn for them.
Yun Yangfeng was unwilling to drag the team down, so he brought a few people and stormed to the capital.
The Capital Television Station was the place that Yun Yangfeng was most familiar with. Back then, High Ability Challenge and Life of Transfiguration, as well as a variety show produced by China Star that was later eliminated, were all collaborations with the Capital Television Station. Yun Yangfeng quickly found the director of the variety department, Meng Fansheng, whom he had a good relationship with, and passed the proposal of The Limit Challenge to him.
Losing the two variety shows, 'High Energy Challenge' and 'Life of Transfiguration', was a huge loss to the Capital Television Station half a year ago. Of course, Meng Fansheng did not vent his anger on the innocent Yun Yangfeng.
"Old Yun, Zhongxing isn't being honest …" As he complained about Yun Yangfeng's new boss, who had sold the two programs and allowed Xiangnan TV Station to take advantage of the situation, he flipped through the proposal in his hands.
As he read, the nagging in Meng Fansheng's mouth disappeared. What was left was only surprise. He was even engrossed in reading, his eyes never leaving the proposal.
"Heh heh, CEO Meng, I, Old Yun, have never cheated you, have I? Look, the 'High Energy Challenge' is gone, but I've sent you the 'Limit Challenge'! " Looking at Meng Fansheng's expression, Yun Yangfeng knew that he had a chance, so he smiled and acted as if he was asking for credit.
At this moment, Meng Fansheng's secretary knocked on the door and came in, pouring tea for Yun Yangfeng and Meng Fansheng.
Since they had signed the confidentiality agreement, Meng Fansheng did not discuss the details of the show with Yun Yangfeng in front of his secretary. Instead, he talked about something else with Yun Yangfeng. "Old Yun, I heard someone gossiping about your company last year. They said that it might have been Murphy or Yang Yi who bought it. Is it true?"
This was not a big secret, and he was telling it to Meng Fansheng. Yang Yi said honestly, "It's true. Let me tell you, Old Meng, the proposal in your hand, the idea for The Limit Challenge, was personally thought of by our boss, Yang Yi. Isn't it amazing?"
"Yang Yi can write songs, write books, and even do variety shows. His brain is not simple!" Meng Fansheng clicked his tongue and said, "However, starting from scratch and earning enough money to buy your company in just a few years, this person is not simple at all!"
It was inappropriate for Yun Yang to talk about his boss in front of others, so he only smiled.
After the secretary left, Meng Fansheng started talking to Yun Yangfeng. He had asked about the many details of The Limit Challenge, including the lineup of the hosts.
Meng Fansheng was leaning towards having Yang Yi and Murphy on the show. If both of them could stay on the show, Meng Fansheng was not worried about the show's ratings at all!
Obviously, this was just a thought. He was not the only one who thought about it. Guo Ziyi thought about it. Had Yun Yangfeng, Yan Tao, Ren Lian, and the rest not thought about it?
After listening to Yun Yangfeng's explanation, Meng Fansheng shook his head regretfully.
"Alright, let's talk. Your show is indeed more exciting than The High Ability Challenge. I won't deny that I also want Capital TV Station to participate in the production and broadcasting of this show. What are your conditions?" Meng Fansheng closed the proposal book and said to Yun Yangfeng directly, "Let me tell you, Old Yun, don't ask for too much. If we talk about it this time, we will add a few conditions in the contract. Capital TV Station will have the broadcasting rights for five years and the priority to renew the contract in the future."
Meng Fansheng and Capital TV Station had stumbled on this issue in The High Ability Challenge. Meng Fansheng was very alert this time.
When it came to the crucial moment, Yun Yangfeng looked at Meng Fansheng calmly and said, "Old Meng, we will talk about other conditions later. Besides, our new boss is not harsh. He is willing to advance and retreat together with his partners and earn money together! However, there is a condition. You have to promise me first before we can talk about it. "
"What condition?" Meng Fansheng frowned and asked.
"We have to start the production of the show as soon as possible. We want the first episode to be broadcasted in the first week of March. Of course, the best time slot would be the primetime slot of the variety show from Friday to Sunday night." Yun Yangfeng's words were flawless.
However, these were already two or three conditions.
Meng Fansheng could not be bothered to think about the conditions contained in this paragraph. After he heard it, he could not help but jump up from his chair. "Old Yun, are you crazy? You are also someone who knows the industry. How can an insider speak like a layman? How can I fulfill this condition of yours? "
"Broadcast in March. It's already January now! When did I give you the time to change the program? Impossible, impossible! These programs of the TV station are all different. Once they are planned, it will be a season. I have arranged for you to be broadcasted in March. How can I change the program that is being broadcasted at this time? "Meng Fansheng said in exasperation.
"CEO Meng, think of a way. It can be done!" Yun Yangfeng smiled bitterly in his heart. Actually, he also felt that Yang Yi's idea was not easy to achieve, but he had to fight for the benefit of Yang Yi. Starting from nothing was a skill. Therefore, he tried his best to persuade Meng Fansheng. "Move the original program to the back, move the later ones to the back as well. Can't you just cut off the remaining late-night programs that no one watches?"
Meng Fansheng was so angry that he laughed. "Do you think this is a game of cards? Throw away the cards you don't want? There are many aspects involved in this. "
Yun Yangfeng continued, "But this program of ours is very exciting! You said it yourself just now! Think about it, our 'The Limit Challenge' is a hundred times better than the original 'High Ability Challenge'. If you introduce it to the Capital TV Station and everyone likes' The Limit Challenge 'and not' High Ability Challenge 'after it is broadcasted, aren't you humiliating Xiangnan TV Station? Who asked them to steal your program? "
Honestly, Meng Fansheng was a little tempted. However, 'The Limit Challenge' was a new thing after all. Meng Fansheng could not predict the future. He felt that it was good, but he could not guarantee that it would be as well written as it was filmed. Therefore, Meng Fansheng was still rationally unwilling to take the risk.
"Old Yun, I can promise you that it will be broadcasted in May. I will give you prime time!" Meng Fansheng insisted.
"Then we really can't talk about it anymore. Director Meng, I'm sorry. Our boss has given instructions that it must be broadcasted in March." Yun Yangfeng hesitated for a while and could only give up. Of course, his tone was still very polite.
Meng Fansheng reluctantly passed the proposal back to Yun Yangfeng. He shook his head and said, "I still have the same promise. If your boss changes his mind, we will continue to talk in the future."
Meng Fansheng nagged a little more, unwilling to give up. "Honestly, Old Yun, if you don't believe me, you can try a few more TV stations. No one will give you such extreme time!"
"Director Meng, no matter what, I still have to thank you for taking the time to meet me despite your busy schedule …" Yun Yangfeng said courteously. "Business is not in the picture, but benevolence is still there. I hope that we will have a chance to work together in the future!"
"It's still the same. If you change your mind, come and talk to me anytime! I like your program very much. If we can work together, I will definitely find a good broadcast time for you! " Meng Fansheng shook hands with Yun Yangfeng with a smile. He did not know that not losing his temper this time had left a good impression on their future collaboration.
Yun Yangfeng left the Capital Television Station and shook his head with a sigh.
"Boss, what should we do?" his subordinate asked.
"What else can we do? Let's continue to look for TV stations. Since we're in the capital, let's go to Central TV to take a look. There might be a chance." Yun Yangfeng perked up.
