Huang Tao walked out of the conference room with a heavy heart, and the words of station director Li Hongzhen in the conference room were still ringing in his ears.
"The ratings of the first episode of "The King of Masked Singer" have set a big star in the industry. It has attracted much attention both on the station and outside. The ratings data of CCTV has also been a huge success. From the original
0.7% has nearly doubled. This is something we all need to learn from. The ratings for the second period will be announced tonight. Is this kind of ratings a flash in the pan or will it become commonplace? We will get it tonight
The answer is, I will always pay attention to the data from the MS Rating Monitoring Station. Director Huang, you are an old TV person with rich experience. You have to remember that the more important the time, the less you should care about interference from the outside world.
Trying to make the program content well is what you should do now. We will not compete with other TV programs. What we compete with is ourselves! Come on, the world will give way to those who have goals, preparation and vision.
"
Director Li spoke slowly and slowly, but was full of profound meaning, which made all the directors present look at Huang Tao with admiration.
The meaning of Director Li's last sentence revealed too many things.
If the ratings of the second episode of "The King of Masked Singer" continue to reach new highs, then Huang Tao will be greeted by an infinitely bright future.
Material rewards are indispensable, but the greatest possibility is that one day in the future, Huang Tao will be transferred to a local provincial TV station, become the feudal king, have overwhelming power, and single-handedly take charge.
This is what all CCTV channel director-level figures dream of.
But for now, Huang Tao does not intend to accept such conditions.
"The King of Masked Singer" is a program that he is very optimistic about. If it continues, it may not be impossible to break through 2% or even 3% of the ratings in the future!
By that time, Huang Tao will have gained even more benefits. At least in the selection of provincial TV station directors, the organization will consider his outstanding personal contributions and give him a certain say.
Naturally, Xiangnan TV Station cannot be compared with CCTV, just like Jizhou TV Station cannot be compared with Xiangnan TV Station.
This is not an unrealistic idea.
A month ago, if it was said that CCTV's "The King of Masked Singer" could have a ratings of 1%, people would probably laugh at it.
But now, not only Huang Tao, but almost everyone believes that the ratings of "The King of Masked Singer" can not only reach 1%, but even 2%.
For TV station practitioners, it is a great event when the ratings exceed 2%. It is a great achievement nationwide and ranks among the top in the influence of major TV programs.
To put it mildly, it is almost comparable to "Happy Camp"!
Because the normal ratings of "Happy Camp" are only 1.5%~1.8%.
Therefore, when the ratings exceed 2%, the influence of CCTV in all aspects will increase rapidly.
The price of embedded advertising will also jump three times in a row, and the political achievements achieved by the channel director will also achieve a qualitative change.
Thinking of the envious and jealous looks of a group of colleagues in the conference room, Huang Tao felt comfortable in his heart.
Especially when he saw the faces of news channel director Hong Lei and deputy director Nie Yuanchen smiling at him even though they were unhappy, Huang Tao felt even more refreshed.
Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. As a human being, you must not look down upon others!
Looking at his watch, he saw that there were less than five minutes left before the second episode of "The King of Masked Singer" started. Huang Tao suppressed the excitement and anxiety in his heart, picked up his belt, and walked faster, faster.
Walk to the CCTV Building MS Ratings Monitoring Room.
…
Ma Dong has never looked forward to a program as much as he does now.
Ever since he watched "The King of Masked Singer" broadcast on the CCTV Variety Channel two weeks ago, he has been out of control. He has watched the rerun of the first episode of "The King of Masked Singer" twice!
Every time he saw his favorite singer advance, he would cheer and roar, as if his life had reached a new level!
Ma Dong is twenty-two years old and is a student at Jinghua University. He is fair, fat, and energetic. Although he is not handsome in appearance, the fact that he was admitted to one of the top universities in the country shows that he is very smart.
In fact, he is not only smart, but also very talented in music. He can barely be regarded as a famous figure on campus.
My biggest hobby every day is to go to the guitar club to play guitar and sing songs with a group of like-minded friends, just to attract the attention of some artistic young women on campus.
However, in his opinion, the most valuable thing about him is that he is low-key and does not act sentimental.
Although he often plays and sings by himself with a guitar on his back by Jinghua Lake on campus, he never dares or knows how to seduce a young Huaichun girl. He always waves his sleeves, pretends to be cool and runs away.
In fact, to put it bluntly, it means that you have a thief heart but no courage.
Last week, he happened to listen to General Qin Chao's "Born to Wander" on the Central Comprehensive Channel. The song's cry of resignation to fate shocked Ma Dong, and he instantly became a fan of General Qin Chao.
To this end, he specially formed a rock band with his friends and completed the practice of this song in just two or three days.
Then he ran around every corner of the campus singing and dancing, promoting "The King of Masked Singer" and the generals of the Qin Dynasty.
Because he liked it, he was very angry when the second episode of "The Masked Singer" was delayed for two weeks.
After a difficult fourteen days of waiting, the second episode of "The King of Masked Singer" finally aired as scheduled.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, he took a group of friends to the hotel to get a room and wait because only hotels had TV sets.
After more than an hour of boring card games, "The Masked Singer" finally started.
From the TV, the sound of guitar playing came first.
The simple and harmonious melody perked up a group of college students playing guitar at the scene, and their attention was instantly attracted.
On the TV screen, a man wearing a hat, sunglasses, a mask, and a red cassock was standing quietly in front of a microphone stand, playing a guitar, and humming vaguely: "
I once crossed mountains and seas..."
Everyone shouted:
"Holy crap, who is this? A new player?"
"He appeared in the previous trailer, the mysterious little monk!"
"This song sounds so comfortable..."
The friends had a chattering discussion, and Ma Dong also participated in it excitedly.
However, as the program continued, the scene of this mysterious monk passed in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, images of a bloated woman wearing a Statue of Liberty mask, a Qin Dynasty general wearing a golden mask, a girl known as the "Egyptian Blue Water Lily", African cheetahs, running catfish and many other contestants also flashed one by one.
"Just looking at the preview of this issue makes people excited!"
"With the strength of General Qin Chao, should he be able to win the second term of King of Masked Singer?"
"I heard that Xia Hong also participated in the competition, and some media reported it."
"If Xia Hong participates in the competition, with her singing skills, she will definitely be able to stabilize the finals. By then, General Qin Chao may not be sure of winning."
"By the way, do you know Weibo? It's a newly opened social networking site on the Internet. It's very interesting. All the contestants of "The King of Masked Singer" have opened accounts on it. Ma Dong, don't treat your buddies as brothers. Let me tell you.
, our department Hua Cong Weiwei’s Weibo nickname is Lalanyu, my brother can only help you so far, the next step is up to you!”
Ma Dong likes to tie the flower Cong Weiwei, which is an open secret among the friends.
But Cong Weiwei has never been attracted to anyone, and this is an open secret.
"Hey, don't talk about anything else, the show has started!"
Ma Dong waved his hand, looking a little bored.
At this moment, to Ma Dong, Cong Weiwei seemed to be just an ordinary name.
In his eyes, "The King of Masked Singer" is obviously more attractive than Cong Weiwei.
"This guy is really... Huh? Wu Chunlan is here too!"
"Isn't she the nine-tailed fox from last issue?"
"Her singing skills are very good, she is a Taiwanese comedian."
"Ahem, I'm in really good shape, but I'm a little bit ugly. It's good to be a judge."
As soon as the show started, Ma Dong and others noticed that a new member was added to the judging panel, Wu Chunlan.
After a while, the first round of competition began.
The Statue of Liberty and the Blind Monk came on stage at the same time, and the classic song "Hey Girl" from the early 1990s made Ma Dong and others feel like a breath of fresh air.
"The figure of the Statue of Liberty is very similar to Xia Hong's, but her singing skills seem a bit too weak to compare with Xia Hong's."
"If she is not Xia Hong, then the news in "New Entertainment Weekly" is inaccurate. I saw the second trailer, and only the image of the Statue of Liberty matches Xia Hong."
"If she can be arranged to appear first, she is obviously a heavyweight player!"
The first appearance of the Statue of Liberty caused Ma Dong and others to talk a lot.
However, everyone generally believes that this contestant's voice and singing skills are both good, but compared to the rumored Xia Hong, it is slightly weaker.
The blind monk spoke next, and his completely unfamiliar voice obviously surprised Ma Dong and others.
"There is no such voice in the music industry. It should be an actor, host or unknown artist?"
"This height, this voice, looks a bit like Hong Kong's Wang Weihong!"
"Impossible, Wang Weihong's Mandarin is not that standard!"
When the song ended, the votes were announced, the blind monk won, and the Statue of Liberty was unveiled, Ma Dong and others' jaws dropped.
"Oh my God!"
"This is like a bolt from the blue, okay? The Statue of Liberty is really Xia Hong!"
"This is a contestant who has been on the Spring Festival Gala. How come his singing skills have deteriorated to this point!"
"Even Xia Hong was invited to "The King of Masked Singer". It is indeed a CCTV channel."
"If you can kill Xia Hong, that blind monk is probably no ordinary person!"
The friends were chattering, but Ma Dong suddenly shouted, "I know who he is!"
"Who? Don't make blind guesses. Just now you said it was Wang Weihong. Except for the same height, I don't see any other similarities!"
Someone laughed.
Ma Dong was a little embarrassed, but his eyes were very firm: "This is Xiao Bo!"
"Xiao Bai?" Everyone looked at each other.
Xiao Bai is a newly debuted male singer. He is very handsome and tall. He just released his first new album two months ago. In just one month, the album sold 500,000 copies and was certified gold record.
Recently, the media has vaguely praised her as the leader of the younger generation in the music industry. Although she has just debuted, her popularity is already stronger than that of Wendi Zhao, and she has the potential to be certified as a platinum record.
Because of his great potential, he has frequently appeared in major variety shows recently, and his popularity is rising rapidly.
"Xiao Bai..."
Everyone's eyes lit up as they recalled the blind monk's timbre and singing skills just now.
"It's really Xiao Bai! Only he can defeat Xia Hong!"
“And the body looks similar too!”
"The most important thing is that Xiao Bai once revealed that he embraced Buddhism, and this player's code name is Blind Monk, and he also wears a cassock..."
"I feel like after this episode of "The King of Masked Singer" is aired, Xiao Bai's popularity will rise again!"
"Hey, Ma Dong, Cong Weiwei is a fan of Xiao Bai. This is a good opportunity to get to know Xiao Bai better so that we can have common topics!"
After Ma Dong heard this sentence, he recalled Xiao Bo's songs he had listened to before, with confusion and excitement on his face.
Is it really Xiao Bo?
However, there is not much time for Ma Dong to think at this time, because the wonderful program is not to be missed!
The first round of duet duet ended quickly in a wonderful way.
When the second round began, the song "The Ordinary Road" by Blind Monk sounded...
The friends who were originally excitedly discussing who would be the final singer suddenly fell silent.
"Wandering, on the road
Do you want to leave, via~via~"
fragile, proud
That was also what I looked like..."
"That's the song! That's the song! That's the song in the trailer!" someone shouted excitedly.
Others said in unison: "Shut up!"
The man quickly shut his mouth.
But his face was still very excited, and his eyes were fixed on the TV screen.
In the TV screen, a blind monk dressed as a mysterious monk is holding an electric guitar, strumming chords and playing slowly.
"I have crossed mountains and seas
Also passed through the sea of people
I once had everything
In the blink of an eye, everything disperses like smoke
I was once lost, disappointed and lost all direction
Until you see the ordinary is the only answer.”
Ordinary singing, but there is shocking power!
When the song ended, Ma Dong and others seemed to have just woken up, with confusion on their faces.
God!
Is such a touching singing voice really that of Xiao Bo?
…
CCTV building, MS ratings monitoring station.
"It's gone up, it's gone up again!"
"Oh my god, it's still rising! It broke the record of 1.63% just five minutes after it started airing!"
"Keep going up, up, up!"
"Bonuses, these are all bonuses! Oh my god, the visible bonuses are smiling at me!"
"I'm about to cry!"
"It will break 2 soon! It will break 2 soon! It's still a little bit, a little bit closer!"
"Come on! Keep rising!"
Different from the previous empty space, the MS ratings monitoring station at this time was slowly filled with people. Counting them carefully, there were about 20 people!
Except for the four employees in the duty room, the rest were all people who came to inquire about the ratings from CCTV and other channels.
Everyone is shouting excitedly!
Huang Tao stood at the front. Although he did not shout as excitedly as his employees, the smile on his face was obvious, and his whole mouth was grinning from ear to ear.
It broke the record for the highest ratings for the first episode just five minutes into the broadcast...
Obviously, the ratings of the second episode of "The King of Masked Singer" will inevitably reach a level that is impossible to predict.
When Blind Monk's song "The Ordinary Road" ended, the ratings data from the monitoring station reached 1.983%!
About to break 2%!
A record that has never been achieved by CCTV!
Huang Tao's heart was full of excitement and excitement.
Everyone in the industry knows that although the ratings have exceeded 1 and the ratings have exceeded 2, although they have only doubled, the advertising benefits they represent are definitely not just as simple as doubling!
If this program continues to maintain such high ratings, this... this will simply be a cornucopia!——
