Wandering the world of film and television begins with the golden years

The two arrived at the TV station quickly. ღ(¯`◕‿◕´¯) ♫ ♪ ♫ 690ĤỮⓍ.c𝕠𝓜 ♫ ♪ ♫ (¯`◕‿◕´¯)ღ

At this time, many people at the TV station looked exhausted.

After all, apart from privileged individuals like Li Haoyu, many people cannot leave work on time.

Even television stations are busier during holidays and weekends. This aligns with the principle that television stations won't get a holiday unless the Earth explodes.

Everyone had their opinions, but that's just the way things are, and they could only follow the company's arrangements. It's not just a saying that you can't fight city hall.

Li Haoyu had just sat down at his workstation.

He was greeted with warm greetings from many people.

Just a few days ago, Li Haoyu was practically invisible; apart from Lin Miaomiao and Su Qiang, almost no one spoke to him. Today, suddenly many people started to greet Li Haoyu.

"Little Li, not bad!"

"Good morning, Teacher Li."

"The interview was really good; my whole family laughed our heads off last night."

"Yeah, I didn't even have time to watch it yesterday; a friend forwarded it to me. I heard you were the chief planner for the interview, and you were responsible for all the scripts. You're really amazing!"

"This writing is truly impressive; the station director wouldn't have been so satisfied if it weren't for last time." Little Li is a real talent; this is nothing to him.

Now, not only interns, but also many full-time employees are taking the initiative to greet Li Haoyu. They are so friendly it's unbelievable, and some of their flattery makes Li Haoyu's skin crawl.

Seeing this change in the people around me.

Li Haoyu couldn't help but sigh, "This is quite interesting."

Previously, he had only interacted with high-level people, so this feeling wasn't as clear to him. Now, Li Haoyu finally understands: once you reach a certain position, the smiling faces around you suddenly increase!

Celebrities like Huang Bo and Guo Degang have also experienced similar things. Guo Degang slept under a bridge, Zhou Xun sang in nightclubs, and Yue Yunpeng was once verbally abused to tears…

What impressed Li Haoyu the most was a variety show that Guo Degang participated in years ago. He couldn't remember the exact name, but the content left a deep impression on him.

Guo Degang was required to perform in transparent glass cases and stay inside for 48 hours, even eating, drinking, and relieving himself inside, with no dignity whatsoever.

At first, he was able to patiently deal with the crowds, but as time went by, Guo Degang's mind began to break down.

It seems like it was still summer then, and the temperature was terribly high.

That small glass cabinet was practically a giant steamer.

For the sake of effect, the production team didn't even provide Guo Degang with a speaker. Guo Degang's interaction and performance with passersby relied entirely on shouting, making him appear to others as a monkey constantly waving his arms and legs.

Even passing children were waving chicken legs out the window, as if they were teasing a pet...

But after they became famous, everything changed. 🍭💜 ➅❾𝐒卄Ｕx.Č𝐎𝔪 🐜★

Just like Li Haoyu suddenly went from being an intern who didn't even have a name.

Suddenly he's become Brother Li or Teacher Li!

If this happened to an ordinary person, they would be flattered and become arrogant.

However, Li Haoyu remained calm about it.

Actually, such a change is not surprising. At first, everyone distanced themselves from Li Haoyu simply because they did not want to offend an old man like Fu Shuai because of an intern who would not stay for more than a few days.

After all, TV station interns come and go like a flowing river.

They greeted me this morning, but I'll probably just pack up and leave after get off work. At first, nobody was optimistic about Li Haoyu's future, so their attitude was quite indifferent.

But now the situation is completely different. Li Haoyu had just made quite a splash in front of the station director last time. This time, he's shining brightly again on a neighborhood news program that nobody pays attention to.

After two such instances, no one can underestimate Li Haoyu, this newcomer. He has already demonstrated enough value, even surpassing the impact of offending Commander Fu.

People's attitudes naturally became more enthusiastic.

Is this realistic?

It's just social etiquette, a perfectly normal thing.

Of course, some people still viewed Li Haoyu differently. One man's hero, another's enemy. For the second directing team, Li Haoyu's behavior undoubtedly provoked them.

But he didn't take these people to heart. After dealing with these sycophants, Li Haoyu quietly logged onto the message board of Jiangzhou TV.

It's worth noting that the usual message boards for TV programs don't get many messages.

Most people who watch TV are older. Some of them are elderly and don't know how to use the internet at all, while many others know how but are too lazy to bother.

But this time, the message board on Jiangzhou TV was exceptionally popular. Viewers from far beyond Jiangzhou flocked to leave comments.

This news was only released half a day ago.

The number of comments is almost over a thousand. "This female reporter is truly a breath of fresh air in the world of reporting. How come I never noticed this potential star before?"

Li Haoyu smiled and replied below, "Actually, she's a newcomer. Maybe she'll continue to appear later. Thank you all for your support."

Li Haoyu continued reading and found that one of the comments was quite cultured.

The content is as follows: Happiness, these two characters are actually different. Happiness is a type of shackle, an instrument of torture. Happiness, on the other hand, is composed of "示" (shì, meaning to show off) on the left and a wine bottle on the right, representing the offering of fine wine to the gods to pray for wealth and well-being.

Fortunately, it was a gift from the emperor that he was pardoned on his deathbed and survived. Blessings are a gift from heaven, and the gods have blessed him with wealth and health.

That's why people hang a "福" (fortune) character on their door, but not a "幸" (luck) character. 💋🏆 ➅❾𝔰𝐡υ𝕩.ⒸỖ𝔪 💥💲 Seeing such a witty reply, Li Haoyu couldn't help but marvel at how talented people truly are in the comments section.

Li Haoyu thought for a moment and continued typing, replying, "Actually, 'luck' can also be broken down into 'earth' and '¥,' so I hope you can become rich overnight."

Next, there was a message written in the voice of a child.

Actually, my parents are very rich, but I am very unhappy. It's not a big deal that I only ranked fifth from the bottom in the exam, since my family is not short of money anyway.

Li Haoyu also replied directly below.

Happiness is a subjective feeling; everyone experiences it differently. Some people can force themselves to feel absolute happiness amidst relative unhappiness, while others cannot.

There's a song lyric that goes, "What you can't have always stirs your heart, while what you have always makes you fearless."

Therefore, the greatest happiness in life is to obtain what you could not obtain in the past. For this reason, in my heart, as long as you are healthy and lively and do not die young, you are happy.

At least you're young, so you'll recover quickly from the beating.

……

Afterwards, Li Haoyu selected a few lucky viewers and replied to them one by one in a humorous tone. Although he didn't reply to all the remaining viewers with text messages, he did give them a like.

It seems like this time it's really become a hit!

Next, let's look at the ratings.

After all, data is king.

Local television stations differ from CCTV, which also undertakes propaganda and education tasks, so viewership ratings are not the only reference standard.

But for local television stations, viewership ratings are their lifeline. Although sampling and data corruption are still unavoidable in viewership ratings, they remain relatively authoritative data.

Ratings actually serve the interests of advertisers. They tell sponsors who is watching what programs and whether their money is being spent wisely.

It helps television networks recognize their strengths and weaknesses, and it also lets advertisers know how to spend their money. This is directly linked to money and determines whether a program can continue to survive.

Secondly, viewership ratings are also a crucial factor in promotions and demotions within the television station. This demonstrates the importance of viewership ratings.

Li Haoyu was waiting for the ratings data, as were Su Qiang and Lin Miaomiao; even Fu Shuai, Geng Jilin, and the station director Ou Tai were waiting for the ratings data.

Although he had seen many comments and heard that "You're Happy" was very popular, the final results would have to be judged by the facts.

At this moment, Lin Miaomiao also came over.

She smiled and asked Li Haoyu, "How's it going? Have the ratings results come out yet?"

Li Haoyu shook his head calmly.

"I don't think it'll be out yet, but it'll definitely be out before noon. We'll know once the ratings data comes in. Why are you, a girl, in such a hurry?"

Lin Miaomiao said with a grin, "This is our trio's first representative work, not to mention I'm the female host, isn't it normal to pay more attention?"

"On the contrary, this is your own child, how can you be so indifferent? You're the one who's strange."

Li Haoyu couldn't help but laugh when he saw Lin Miaomiao like this.

I didn't expect Lin Miaomiao to value this result so much.

Li Haoyu wanted to tease Lin Miaomiao, but Lin Miaomiao was clearly still thinking about the ratings and seemed absent-minded.

Although Lin Miaomiao knew in her heart that the ratings results were already set, and all that was left was to wait patiently, she still couldn't contain her excitement.

This is her first work.

Li Haoyu looked at Lin Miaomiao like this.

He actually thought she was kind of cute.

He intended to continue watching Lin Miaomiao for a while longer. However, not long afterward, a series of hurried footsteps broke the tranquility.

Li Haoyu knew from the sound of the footsteps that it must be Su Qiang. After all, only someone of Su Qiang's weight could make that sound.

Su Qiang walked up to the two of them, panting, and said, "The ratings are out... They're a full 1%! We're number one on Jiangzhou TV that day."

This news clearly relieved Lin Miaomiao.

What followed was a burst of cheers.

Li Haoyu watched Lin Miaomiao and Su Qiang looking happy.

He was smiling very happily.

Li Haoyu hadn't experienced such simple joy in a long time.

Although this success is nothing for Li Haoyu to boast about, this kind of selflessness in the face of effort and reward should not be measured by a single, temporary result.

He hadn't felt this way in a long time.

…………

However, Li Haoyu wasn't entirely satisfied with the result. It was still somewhat different from what he had expected... it fell a little short.

This was once a wildly popular interview online; Li Haoyu wouldn't even dare to boast about it if it didn't get at least 2 points in viewership! No wonder Jiangzhou TV has always been known as a hopeless case; the situation is indeed quite tragic.

However, Li Haoyu's thoughts clearly only represent himself.

It's not just Lin Miaomiao and Su Qiang's side.

A chorus of discussions and exclamations of amazement rose from the surrounding area. This was truly an extraordinary achievement; it rivaled the ratings of prime-time dramas on Jiangzhou TV.

Although it was only one episode, it was still a remarkable achievement.

Then Lin Miaomiao could no longer contain her excitement.

She even declared her celebration, "This time I'm going to have a big feast and eat the TV station out of business."

Li Haoyu was starting to lose his composure.

He even wondered if Lin Miaomiao was a glutton in her past life.

Lin Miaomiao, whose every word and action is a masterpiece, is indeed a typical "foodie".

In Lin Miaomiao's own words, she is a woman with four stomachs. Each stomach is used to hold desserts, drinks, chicken, duck, fish, and meat, among other things.

……

On the other side, Fu Shuai heard this news.

He can't even speak anymore!

Actually, after the last interview with the station director ended...

Geng Jilin also enlightened Fu Shuai, who completely gave up the idea of ​​competing with Li Haoyu. After all, Fu Shuai was a capable person who could get into the TV station through his own abilities and stay on, which naturally showed he was a sensible person.

But it would be a lie to say he wasn't resentful. Yet, how much time had passed for Li Haoyu? He had already achieved such remarkable success in the niche field of local news.

This is the number one TV show in Taiwan!

This was something he never dared to even dream of. You see, in the past, even if Fu Shuai had the grandest ambition, he would have only dared to strive for a 5% viewership rating.

As a result, Li Haoyu, with two children in tow, easily doubled his ultimate goal. How is anyone supposed to live like this!

Fu Shuai couldn't help but think to himself, "Being this ridiculously outstanding makes us look like complete trash."

Even Fu Shuai was so surprised, let alone the others in the office area.

The entire TV station was in an uproar.

They all knew the news was a huge hit. But they still couldn't believe their ears! Was it really that outrageous? Could the viewership data be wrong?

They never expected that the ratings would soar to number one.

Well, although Jiangzhou TV doesn't usually have any hit dramas, and it's currently in a rather awkward off-peak period, its prime time slot is being used to rebroadcast classic TV series.

So the ratings at this time were much lower than the usual prime-time ratings, but it was still prime-time! It was surpassed by the street interviews conducted by three interns.

It even became the number one in Taiwan.

Does this mean that viewers didn't leave after the news broadcast ended? It even attracted viewers who were supposed to be watching TV dramas.

That's how they were able to achieve such outrageous viewership ratings.

This is simply against the norm, yet everyone is watching the outrageous viewership ratings, and it really is happening right before their eyes. It's truly outrageous!

Now, Li Haoyu has truly become a celebrity on Jiangzhou TV.

Is this really something an intern could do?

A newcomer who had only been there for a few days, a female host with no prior experience, managed to create such a viral news story.

What's even more alarming is that the impact of this news isn't even limited to Jiangzhou TV. It's already starting to spread nationwide, and its influence may continue to grow.
