  Chapter 242 240. I don't want to be a director, I just need the director to listen to me!

   Central Plains Satellite TV also has sufficient funds for the cultural Central Plains program group this time...

  After all, the announcement fee for Wang Cheng alone is as high as 50 million, and with the other four people, the announcement fee for this issue is as high as more than 70 million!

  The cost of program production itself has also increased a lot compared to before, reaching 10 million.

   Such a production budget is of course nothing compared to other big-production ace variety shows.

  However, for the original culture, it is definitely a high production cost.

After all, their previous production budget for each issue was only about 2 million. Occasionally, they went over budget, and it could only reach 3 million at most. million budget.

   It can be seen that the status of Cultural Central Plains in Central Plains Satellite TV!

  The production budget of 10 million this time is the result of Liu Jie's hard work.

  Adding more than 70 million announcement fees, the total production cost of this issue of Cultural Central Plains is as high as more than 80 million, which is nearly 90 million!

   Such a single-episode production fee has definitely set a record for the highest single-episode expenditure in the history of all domestic variety shows.

  Everyone in the program group knows these numbers, so everyone's heart is heavy...

  They all know that everyone inside and outside the circle is staring at them at this time, wanting to see what kind of show they can produce with so much money...

After all, if the record-breaking production funds, coupled with the joining of Wang Cheng and Wen Yixiao, who are constantly creating records, and Cultural Central Plains fail to create good ratings figures, then everyone in their entire program group may not I have to take the blame, and there will be no future in the future.

   There is even a crisis of disbanding the program group.

  So, the entire program group, everyone is very busy and serious.

  Program group director Xiao Qiang and assistant director Yu Wenqiao have been discussing the recording of this program for the past two days.

  At seven o'clock in the morning, they arrived at the program group together.

   Looking at the antique show stage dressed up…

   This is the result of the two discussing until midnight last night.

  Xiao Qiang looked at the busy program staff with dark circles under his eyes, and sighed, "We are still not bold enough! We can only continue to maintain the previous program format..."

  Yu Wenqiao was also full of exhaustion, and said softly: "The scenic spot has been contacted. After we finish recording on the stage, we can go to the scenic spot to record a live commentary. This episode will be considered complete!"

The inherent mode of the Cultural Central Plains before is the combination of the program site and the scenic spot. The outside filming team shoots in the scenic spot, and the screen is connected to the scene, and introduces interesting stories of the scenic spot with the star guests or cultural celebrities on the scene, interspersed with some other Similar to ancient storytelling…

   This is the program of teachable culture.

  So, many people saw the promotion of Zhongyuan Satellite TV and went to watch the video, but they felt bored and couldn't stand it.

because.

  For ordinary people, it is indeed boring, not entertaining, and not appreciative, almost no different from a documentary.

   If you want to see the scenery of the scenic spot, there are many short video platforms on the major short video platforms, and there is not so much nonsense...

  If you want to read the story, people can find it by themselves, and you don’t have to listen to nonsense and private goods...

  Xiao Qiang and Yu Wenqiao originally wanted to discuss with Wang Cheng and others their own ideas, and then discuss how to innovate this episode of the program.

  However, Wang Cheng didn't talk about work with them at all, and Wen Yixiao and the others obeyed Wang Cheng's words. Wang Cheng didn't talk about work, and they didn't talk about work either.

  Xiao Qiang and Yu Wenqiao are not big-name directors, so they dare not force Wang Cheng and Wen Yixiao to ask for anything, so they can only follow them.

  Since Wang Cheng and the others don’t want to talk about it…

  Xiao Qiang and Yu Wenqiao didn't dare to try anything boldly, they could only do it step by step, not seeking merit, but seeking no faults was enough.

  Deputy director Liu Jie also came to the program group, looked at the scene layout, found Xiao Qiang and Yu Wenqiao, frowned and asked: "Is it the original?"

  Liu Jie had heard the report results of the two yesterday, but seeing this familiar scene at this time, he still asked a little unwillingly.

  He is not optimistic about such a program format, because it has never been successful before...

  Xiao Qiang smiled wryly and nodded: "Director Liu, we have tried our best!"

Liu Jie frowned even tighter. Thinking of the news that he saw just now, Wang Cheng and Wen Yixiao went out for a morning run in the morning, but they were blocked by media reporters and immediately asked, "Have you asked Wang Cheng and the others?" ?”

  Xiao Qiang shook his head: "No...it's not Wang Cheng's working time yet!"

   Thinking of Wang Cheng's rule of not talking about work during off-duty hours, Liu Jie felt a faint headache.

  He really regretted this impulse, spent so much money to invite Wang Cheng to do the show, and finally invited a grandpa...

   Can’t hit, scold, talk, ask questions...

  If time could be turned back, Liu Jie would never fight against all opinions at the meeting and gamble on his future and invite Wang Cheng to do the show.

  Yu Wenqiao looked at the time and said in a low voice, "Wang Cheng should be coming. The assistant over there called just now and said that Wang Cheng and the others had come from the hotel by car."

  Liu Jie looked at the time, it was almost nine o'clock, and indeed it was almost time for Wang Cheng to go to work.

  This working time is more punctual than his civil servant who has worked for more than 20 years.

only…

  Why, Wen Yixiao, Han Xiao, Zhu Ziqi, and An Keru are the same?

   Isn’t Ankeru always known for his dedication?

  Liu Jie just feels that the current entertainment industry seems to be different from the entertainment industry he is familiar with.

  These celebrities are all so famous...

  He, the deputy director of the TV station, was an existence that no one in the industry dared to offend in the past. A word can determine the life and death of many celebrities and entertainers.

  But, now, Wang Cheng, Wen Yixiao, Han Xiao, An Keru, and Zhu Ziqi don't give him the face of the real power deputy director at all.

  Liu Jie kept these names in mind—if he can still secure his position after this failure, he will never cooperate with these people again in the future.

   Several people were talking, when there was a commotion outside.

   Then, several people looked over and saw that Wang Cheng walked in first, followed by Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi, Han Xiao, and An Keru.

  Everyone in the program group also stopped what they were doing, and looked at Wang Cheng and the others curiously, wanting to take a closer look at whether Wang Cheng and Wen Yixiao were as good-looking as they were on the TV screen.

   "Wang Cheng is also so handsome in real life, there is no special effect in the video! The appearance and temperament are too perfect, right? The skin seems to be glowing."

"Wen Yixiao is also so beautiful, like a fairy! Zhu Ziqi's long legs are shocking. Han Xiao's looks are not bad, and her figure is better, but her temperament is a little bit weaker. It's a pity for An Keru. She is a little older. Although she is well-maintained It looks as if they are not inferior to them, but they are still not youthful..."

  A staff member quickly commented on several people, but was recognized by the people around them.

  Although the program group they work in is just a little-known group, they can often watch some big-name stars on Henan Satellite TV.

  The big-name celebrities they have seen in reality are at least one grade worse than those on TV and video.

  Because special effects are added to the TV and video, the on-site lighting and make-up artist, as well as the blessing in the later stage, can greatly improve a person's appearance level.

  Therefore, many celebrities who look amazing on TV and videos will disappoint fans who are looking forward to it if they appear in reality.

   This is also the reason why many celebrities don’t participate in offline activities very much. Even if they do appear, both men and women wear heavy makeup, and may even follow the lighting engineer...

  Like Wang Cheng, Wen Yixiao, An Keru, Han Xiao, and Zhu Ziqi, in reality, they are not inferior to those on TV, and even have more shocking star artists. This is the first time they have seen them.

  A prop master exclaimed: "They are all underestimated! If they hyped harder, the popularity might be even higher."

Another girl said helplessly: "How can Wang Cheng hype? People who haven't posted a message for several months, of course their popularity is underestimated! Wen Yixiao and the others are also learning from Wang Cheng. I can only say that they are all the same. humanoid..."

   Pairs of eyes looked at Wang Cheng and the others curiously and amazed, discussing in low voices.

  Xiao Qiang, Yu Wenqiao, and Liu Jie immediately put down their sad faces, walked over with smiles on their faces, and shook hands with Wang Cheng and the others one by one.

  As the director, Xiao Qiang quickly asked Wang Cheng: "Wang Cheng, what do you think of our place? What do you think about the recording of the program?"

  It's working time...

   Can we always talk about work?

  However, Wang Cheng looked left and right, but frowned slightly, and then made no secret of his disappointment, and said lightly: "Please introduce your program format and today's recording process in detail..."

  Xiao Qiang, Yu Wenqiao, and Liu Jie were all taken aback, and the surrounding people were also full of astonishment!

  Even Wen Yixiao, Han Xiao, Zhu Ziqi, and An Keru looked at Wang Cheng in surprise...

  It’s all here to record the show, but you still don’t understand the format core of this show?

  The four of them got to know a lot last night!

  Xiao Qiang, Yu Wenqiao, and Liu Jie looked at each other with heavy hearts—the situation was worse than they imagined...

  Assistant director Yu Wenqiao asked tentatively: "Wang Cheng, didn't you understand our program yesterday?"

  Wang Cheng glanced at a few people, didn't care about their expressions, and said truthfully: "I just watched it for a while and it's time to get off work. I haven't watched too much! Tell me..."

   Several people heard this, and all of them were complaining in their hearts!

  You are in the hotel by yourself, and you also observe the commuting time?

   It's past get off work time, and you don't even look at the program information?

  Are you going too far?

  Even Wen Yixiao and the others were a little speechless, but they agreed—this is Wang Cheng!

  Yu Wenqiao looked at Xiao Qiang and Liu Jie, Liu Jie nodded to him and asked him to talk.

Yu Wenqiao immediately cleared up his mood, explained it, and finally said: "Today you are recording live now, explaining the details of the story we gave you, and then going around the scene of the scenic spot to attract everyone to understand our traditional culture. OK..."

  Wang Cheng frowned when he heard this, and glanced at Yu Wenqiao, which made Yu Wenqiao feel a lot of pressure, and instantly shut up and couldn't speak, as if he had made a big mistake.

  Wang Cheng glanced at the director Xiao Qiang and Liu Jie again, and the two became tense in an instant, as if they had made some mistake and dared not face Wang Cheng's gaze...

  Wang Cheng's aura at this time suppressed them all in an instant, and said calmly, "You didn't tell the story with your heart!"

   Several people were taken aback when they heard this...

   Didn't tell the story with heart?

What's the meaning?

  Wang Cheng glanced at Liu Jie, knowing that Liu Jie is the biggest here and can call the shots, so he asked directly: "What is your original intention for making this show? Is it just to perfunctory the policy, or do you really want to promote the inheritance of Chinese culture?"

  Liu Jie was stunned for a moment, and instinctively replied immediately: "Of course I want to promote the inheritance of Chinese culture..."

  Xiao Qiang also quickly said: "Of course we want to carry forward Chinese culture!"

  Wang Cheng shook his head: "Then you guys did a terrible job!"

   Several people were speechless and fell silent.

   For a while, I couldn't find any words to refute.

because.

  They are really not doing very well.

  The Cultural Central Plains program has been on the line for so long, whether it is broadcast on TV or online, it can be said to be horrible, and there are almost no viewers.

  As the director, Xiao Qiang said in a low voice with a little dissatisfaction: "Then what should we do? Cultural, scientific and educational programs can only do this...the natural audience is very small!"

  Yu Wenqiao and Liu Jie nodded after hearing this!

  Wen Yixiao and the others listened and nodded in agreement with Xiao Qiang's statement.

  If it weren't for Wang Cheng, it would be impossible for the four of them to participate in an unknown and educational program on a local station. Unless it was CCTV's cultural and educational program group, they might sell their favors to go around CCTV.

   Local stations cannot invite big-name celebrities for cultural and educational programs, even Shonan Satellite TV’s cultural and educational programs cannot invite big-name stars!

because…

  Everyone knows that cultural and educational variety shows have no audience base, and the announcement fee is still very low.

   It doesn’t make money, and no one watches it.

   Especially those who promote traditional Chinese culture are extremely monotonous and boring.

  Accustomed to the fast-paced contemporary young people, how can they have the patience to read on?

  Wang Cheng said lightly: "When I'm working, I either don't do it, or I have to do my best!"

   "Since you can't do well, then you all listen to me!"

Forehead…

  Xiao Qiang looked up at Wang Cheng in an instant, his eyes glistened, he felt very uncomfortable, and he also felt that it was true—Wang Cheng really wanted to take away his power!

  As for Yu Wenqiao, Liu Jie and the others all looked at Wang Cheng at the same time.

   Liu Jie immediately asked: "Wang Cheng, what do you want to do?"

  Wang Cheng put his hands behind his back, looked left and right, glanced around, and said calmly without getting angry, "I just want to do my job well!"

  Xiao Qiang said in a low voice: "Your job is to record the program according to the arrangement of the program group!"

  Wang Cheng nodded: "Not bad...but, the arrangement of your program group is too bad! So, you have to listen to my arrangement to record!"

  So direct?

  Xiao Qiang looked at Wang Cheng dissatisfied: "You want to be a director? Will you?"

  Wang Cheng shook his head: "I don't want to be a director, I just need the director to listen to me."

  Xiao Qiang was speechless for a moment—isn't this a meaning?

  Liu Jie held down Xiao Qiang who was still about to speak, looked at Wang Cheng and said, "Wang Cheng, if everyone listens to you, can you guarantee the ratings of the show?"

  Both Xiao Qiang and Yu Wenqiao looked at Wang Cheng at the same time, their expressions and emotions were very complicated, and they hoped that Wang Cheng could increase the ratings, and they didn't want to become a puppet and lose the right to direct!

However, Wang Cheng said lightly: "I won't guarantee anything. I just try my best to do my job well. The ratings are what you need to worry about! Give me an answer quickly, we don't have much time. If You stick to your plan, and I can barely cooperate, after all, this is my job, but this will make me very unhappy, because it's too bad..."

  The scene fell silent.

  Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi, An Keru, and Han Xiao moved their feet naturally, and stood behind Wang Cheng, expressing their support for Wang Cheng.

   However, none of them spoke.

  Because, they know, it is best not to intervene in the power struggle of the program group!

  Wang Cheng's behavior at this time is already extremely presumptuous, it is a taboo in the circle, and may be rejected by the entire circle.

Xiao Qiang, Yu Wenqiao and the others felt very uncomfortable after hearing Wang Cheng's words, but they didn't say anything. They didn't want to conflict with Wang Cheng, but all looked at Liu Jie. They knew that the decision was in Liu Jie's hands. …

   Liu Jie's expression changed as he thought about it. After a full minute, he looked up at Wang Cheng and said in a low voice, "Wang Cheng, what do you want?"

  Both program directors Xiao Qiang and Yu Wenqiao shook their bodies slightly at the same time, and they felt a little relaxed and decadent.

  Relaxation is because the pressure and responsibilities on them are much less, and decadence is because they have lost the dominance of the program group, which hit them hard.

  None of them expected.

  Liu Jie didn't believe them, he believed in Wang Cheng...

   Let Wang Cheng lead the recording of the program group!

   Will he?

  Does he understand?

  Both Xiao Qiang and Yu Wenqiao looked at Wang Cheng with anticipation in their eyes, hoping that Wang Cheng would make a mistake, or even make a fool of himself, and they could come out to clean up the mess and show their strength...

  Wen Yixiao, An Keru, Zhu Ziqi, and Han Xiao have also been looking at Wang Cheng quietly, with trust and curiosity towards Wang Cheng in their eyes.

  They have absolute trust in Wang Cheng and believe that Wang Cheng can do everything well.

  However, they didn't know what Wang Cheng had to do to record this cultural and educational program...

Wang Cheng glanced at Liu Jie, nodded his appreciation for his choice, and said after thinking: "Since it is telling a story, it must be well told! To tell a good story, it must be done well, either it sounds good, or Good-looking, or good-sounding and good-looking!"

   Several people listened to Wang Cheng's words, and they all felt unfathomable. Only the two directors Xiao Qiang and Yu Wenqiao knew that Wang Cheng was telling the truth, but they were also nonsense.

  Because they also know this truth, but it is very difficult to do it, at least neither of them can do it.

  Wang Cheng continued: "This stage won't work, change to another..."

  Xiao Qiang and Yu Wenqiao were suddenly unhappy.

   They spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to set up this stage, and it took a day and a night to set it up. You just don’t want it with a word?

  Xiao Qiang: "Wang Cheng, this is the result of everyone's hard work..."

  Wang Cheng didn't look at Xiao Qiang, but just glanced at the stage, and said lightly: "It's not hard work, hard work, it's the right thing."

  Xiao Qiang still wanted to speak, but Liu Jie waved his hand to stop him. Since he chose to support Wang Cheng, he must support him to the end.

  Xiao Qiang and Yu Wenqiao's plan was obviously a failure before. He couldn't see the possibility of success, so he simply tried Wang Cheng's idea, and there was still a possibility of success!

   Liu Jie immediately asked, "What stage do you want?"

  Wang Cheng turned to look at Liu Jie: "Go rent an aquarium!"

  Aquarium?

  Everyone was taken aback, their faces full of astonishment.

   This answer...

  They didn't expect it.
