Entertainment: Starting from joining Kugou Video

This is destined to be a sleepless night.

The next day, when Tang Lou walked into the office, his colleagues immediately stood up, applauded, and gathered around him.

"Assistant Tang, our show is a huge hit!"

"Yeah, this is only the first episode, and our viewership far surpasses other variety shows airing at the same time, completely crushing Tencent and iQiyi!"

"The topic has garnered over 5000 million discussions on Weibo and has topped the trending topics list ten times so far!"

"The WeChat Index peaked at over 1000 million!"

"Wu Xuanyi, Fu Jing, Yang Chaoyue and other contestants have already caused a sensation across the internet."

"Especially Yang Chaoyue, personally recommended by Assistant Tang, has become a household name because of her statement that she is the hope of the entire village!"

"The professionalism of mentors Huang Zitao, Show Lo, and Zhang Yixing has also been widely praised!"

"What's most surprising is that our program's message of aesthetic diversity and the values ​​of female independence has been a huge success!"

While everyone was praising them, a colleague announced some new good news.

"Great! Our show has a 7.1 rating on Douban, with over 54% of viewers giving it four stars or higher!"

"That means we've become the first video platform to surpass 6000 million members."

"Last night, in order to be able to watch our program as soon as possible, in addition to the more than ten million new members, more than twenty million members also activated advanced on-demand viewing!"

"With the added success of the spin-off program of 'Produce 101,' our program has achieved unprecedented success this time."

Upon hearing this news, Shen Yan found it hard to believe; this was incredibly good news.

"Have the operations department immediately spread the good news that we've surpassed 6000 million members!"

The other colleagues were equally excited.

Tang Lou felt a great sense of accomplishment upon hearing this data.

According to the previous life's development, this year should have been the time when kiwifruit suddenly rose to prominence, becoming the first video platform to break 6000 million members with phenomenal dramas such as "Ghost Blows Out the Light" and "The Journey of Flower", and from then on, it was far ahead of the competition.

Furthermore, by the end of 2015, Kiwi had overtaken Tencent Video to take the top spot in market share, while Tencent Video, with its stockpiled copyrighted dramas, secured second place. Tencent Video then gradually built up its strength and eventually took the top spot.

Cool Cat, on the other hand, plummeted from that point on and could never make a splash again.

This time, Tang Lou believes that with his secret to creating hit products, he will definitely be able to hold onto the top spot!

The planning department also reported some good news.

"Mr. Shen, after the show's premiere became a hit, sponsors have already started contacting us this morning, wanting to sponsor our upcoming episodes."

"By 8 a.m., we have received cooperation intentions from six companies, including Xiaohongshu, Ying Shu, Seven Degrees Space, and Zhonghua Magic White Toothpaste."

For variety shows, sponsors are of course crucial; it's already quite impressive for a show to attract two or three sponsors.

Unexpectedly, on only the second day after its premiere, it received so many cooperation offers, demonstrating the success of the move and its commercial potential.

"Tang Lou, you've really created a golden goose for our company."

Shen Yan was full of ambition. As a newly appointed leader, he naturally wanted to win people's hearts and reward those who had made contributions.

"From now on, everyone should work hard and produce our program with high quality and quantity."

"I'd also like to make a promise here: after the show ends, we'll have a celebration for everyone, and everyone will get a promotion, a raise, and a bonus!"

This is under Alibaba, and the promotions and salary increases at each level are very substantial.

Everyone was thrilled to hear President Shen's statement.

"Thank you, Mr. Shen! Thank you, Assistant Tang!"

After the data was reported, everyone was in high spirits and continued to work on the production of the next few episodes.

Now that the show is gaining popularity, we need to add fuel to the fire by increasing publicity and marketing!

...

...

While Kuma was jubilant and full of energy, the other video platforms were hit hard.

"Kiwifruit," Gong Yu cursed loudly in the meeting room.

"Who leaked our membership payment plan?"

"We've been working on this for so long, all for the sake of launching the industry's first differentiated scheduling for members after the release of 'The Lost Tomb'."

"What is it now?"

"According to the original plan, after the release of 'The Lost Tomb', there will definitely be a surge in membership openings, and we will take the lead in breaking the record of 5000 million members."

"Originally, this was our most important strategy this year, and we wanted to use it to overtake Coolcat and Penguin's momentum, but it has come to an abrupt end!"

Gong Yu was so angry that his head was throbbing.

"Have you found out who exactly pushed for the paid membership system on KuMei?"

Gong Yu's assistant said somewhat dejectedly:

"He's a new recruit that Shen Yan just hired. He also planned 'Produce 101.' He was in charge of the entire project, including the subsequent operations, promotion, and copywriting."

The assistant handed Tang Lou's resume to Gong Yu.

"Tang Lou? Graduated from Zhejiang University of Media and Communications, worked at Zhejiang TV for two years after graduation, and then joined Coolcat through Wu Tong's internal referral."

"When I was at Zhejiang Media Group, I demonstrated amazing vision and planning ability. However, I was constrained at Zhejiang Media Group, so I joined Coolcat, which had just been acquired."

After reading it, Gong Yu fell silent. At first, he thought it was an inside leak and that the other party must be a seasoned veteran, but he didn't expect it to be a genius who had just entered the industry.

"It seems to be just a coincidence; great minds think alike."

"Try to use your connections and see if you can poach the tenement building."

Gong Yu showed great interest in Tang Lou, this young genius.

Dragon TV, the "Go Fighting!" project team.

Yan Ming's heart was bleeding as he watched Show Lo and Zhang Yixing's perfect performances on "Produce 101".

Originally, according to his plan, both Show Lo and Zhang Yixing were indispensable pieces of the "Men's Gang".

They were almost ready to sign a contract and start filming.

Who knew that this Tanglou would steal her away? It will definitely take a lot of effort to rebuild a suitable lineup.

"Sigh, this time slot was originally when our 'Go Fighting!' crew dominated the charts. It's just fate!"

Yan Ming was very frustrated; he made a mental note of this tenement building.
