Fortunately, other TV stations are not stupid and have seen the crisis.
Their TV stations are overly pursuing efficiency and advertising like crazy.
As a result, no one feels comfortable doing the show.
Their programs are still old programs.
And in a program, more than half of the advertisements can be inserted.
Even more than half an hour of commercials can be inserted between two programs.
As a result, no one will watch their TV station at all.
Therefore, they also began to pay attention to the effectiveness of the program.
Make an effort to control advertising time.
Because if the advertisement time is too long, it will seriously lose the audience.
And if the ratings can't keep up, I'm afraid there will be fewer and fewer advertisers seeking advertising on their TV stations in the future.
Now some of the advertisers who have spent money on advertising for the next year want to withdraw their advertising.
Because they found that these advertisements did not have much effect at all, and the money was basically wasted.
However, it is absolutely impossible for these TV stations to refund advertising fees.
It is impossible to retreat in this life.
What’s the point of spitting out the fat that you eat in your mouth?
Next, the other nine TV stations launched various talent shows.
These are naturally learned from Jiannan Road TV Station.
However, because the Jiannan Dao TV station had already broadcast it earlier.
Moreover, what Jiannan Dao did was very brilliant, far from being comparable to their shoddy programs.
Therefore, after their programs were launched, although they were able to bring back some viewers, the number of returning viewers was still not too many.
Many viewers would rather watch Jiannan Dao TV station's replays than watch their original productions.
Recently, Jiannan Dao TV Station launched another program that shocked the entire Tang Dynasty.
The name is Good Songs of the Tang Dynasty.
As the name suggests, this program uses songs and tunes to audition.
The show hasn't even started yet, but the audition alone has already made the audience look forward to it.
This show is definitely the best show of the year!
Because this is the first time that a song talent show has appeared on any TV station in Datang.
It's natural to cause a stir.
For this type of program, auditions alone require a long process.
Because they need to select players who are really good at singing from the entire Tang Dynasty.
This takes time.
However, Jiannan TV Station believes that after they launch the Tang Dynasty Good Songs program, other TV stations will definitely follow suit.
Even depending on how shameless they are, they might even mention that their show has aired before.
Although their programs must be shoddy, they may attract a large number of viewers.
It will have a certain impact on the ratings of their programs.
And this is something they don't want to see.
Therefore, the Jiannan Dao TV station decided to record and broadcast the audition process.
Then it will be broadcast publicly on television.
Of course, the contestants in the recording and broadcasting are all quite decent.
Either it's very poor, or it's on the verge of advancement.
Real players who make people feel amazing, players who can create a huge contrast will never appear in front of the audience at this stage.
Just the broadcast of one audition made countless viewers hooked.
Now, they are even more looking forward to the launch of this program.
When other TV stations saw that this program was so popular, they all started to become jealous.
However, if you want them to follow suit and create a program like this, they really can't do it.
Because the Jiannan Dao TV station has already built up momentum.
If they want to keep doing it, they can only follow suit.
Moreover, with the prestige of Jiannan TV Station, they might not be able to do it even if they want to.
This program was of course directed by Li Min from behind.
In the entire Tang Dynasty, only Li Min could control these programs.
Up to now, Li Min still serves as the Jiedushi of Jiannan Road.
Naturally, we will focus our attention and support on the Jiannan Dao TV station.
Jiannan Dao TV Station is also the TV station with the best development and the best program quality among all the TV stations in Datang.
Of course, Li Min's focus is not actually on the TV station.
Li Min's focus was naturally on the Golden State.
Wait until next year, he will send a vanguard army to explore the situation in the Golden State.
Then, the army will march out and establish a kingdom there.
Therefore, all actions are paving the way for the construction of the Golden State.
Now, basically everything is ready.
All is ready except for the opportunity.
Unknowingly, time has come to the end of the year again.
It's the twelfth lunar month again, and the people of Chang'an City have put up Spring Festival couplets early when they have just entered the twelfth lunar month.
This custom was still a craze caused by Li Min.
During the Chinese New Year, the palace of Prince Shu became even more lively.
There are a lot of little carrot heads now, and they are noisy and lively all day long.
After the Chinese New Year, those crew members at Weihaiwei who learned how to sail a giant ship finally learned how to do it.
Moreover, they successfully conducted the trial voyage and adapted to the extremely fast speed of the giant ship.
Then, Li Min went directly to Weihaiwei and gave the crew a navigation map.
This map was naturally not drawn by Li Min himself.
Instead, it is purchased from the prodigal subsystem, and the accuracy is absolutely guaranteed.
With this navigation chart, they can reach the Golden State safely.
This time, the task Li Min gave them was to successfully reach the Golden State.
Find out about the local situation and try your best not to conflict with the local indigenous people.
The Golden State has never developed a highly developed civilization.
Later, Western navigators discovered this rich continent, and then it was colonized by the West.
It is simply a history of blood and tears of the local indigenous people.
Li Min, on the other hand, was not prepared to enslave the local indigenous people.
In Li Min's view, these indigenous people were actually a huge wealth.
His construction plan requires the participation of local indigenous people.
Now, Li Min regards them as his own people.
However, Li Min also knew that the local indigenous people were actually quite fierce.
The Western invaders were once frightened by them.
In the end, they succeeded in enslaving them by relying on the sharpness of their firearms.
Therefore, Li Min ordered them to establish good relations with the local indigenous people as much as possible.
After everything was given, the first expedition team of 3,000 people finally set off.
Shangguan Wan'er volunteered and had to follow her.
Li Min tried to stop her again and again, but Shangguan Wan'er insisted on going, and finally Li Min had no choice but to let him go.
…
At this time, people from the four surnamed Liuwang and other aristocratic families were paying close attention to every move of Zhonghua Commercial Bank and the King of Shu.
Because in the past ten years, Datang's development speed has been too fast.
It's almost here, and even with the background of their aristocratic family, they feel like they can't keep up with the pace of development.
If they can't keep up, I'm afraid they will be eliminated by the carriage of the times sooner or later.
Over the past ten years, they have been working hard to adapt.
But it has to be said that the influence of their family is gradually decreasing.
In the past, the important resources controlled by their family could reach almost 40% of the entire Tang Dynasty.
This number can definitely shake the foundation of an empire.
But what now?
The resources in their hands have not decreased.
But the resources of the entire Tang Dynasty were greatly enriched.
Their share of resources has now been diluted to less than one-tenth.
Although, it still has a pivotal position.
But as time goes by, their influence will only become less and less.
And their officials in the court were also gradually weakened.
Nowadays, the focus of the imperial examination has been increasingly tilted towards new learning.
The proportion of subjects such as mathematics and nature is also increasing.
With the development of compulsory education, civilian children now have greater and greater opportunities to succeed.
Moreover, the current imperial examination system has implemented a system of name recognition and ordering people to copy the test papers.
In terms of system, cheating is restricted to the greatest extent.
Although, cheating still happens.
But it has increased the cost of cheating and reduced the possibility of cheating.
Now among the middle and lower-level officials, most of the positions are occupied by children from poor families.
Although the top management is still controlled by the aristocratic family, the emperor now likes to support officials from poor families, which is weakening the power of the aristocratic family.
In this way, from the court to the people, the influence of the aristocratic family will become lower and lower.
And the imperial power became more and more consolidated.
This frightened the people of these aristocratic families, but there was nothing they could do about it.
One thing they had to admit was that they were no longer the emperor's opponents.
Now that the emperor has no intention of touching them, they are even more afraid to take action.
Now, they are paying attention to every move of the court at all times.
What they paid more attention to was King Shu's every move.
The greater the achievements of the King of Shu, the more frightened they became.
However, some time ago, there seemed to be some trouble between the emperor and the king of Shu, which made them very excited.
It would be best if the emperor and the king of Shu had a falling out and then they fight among themselves, then their family might be able to benefit from it.
The emperor actually granted the King of Shu's fiefdom overseas.
It is said to be a place tens of thousands of miles away, called the Golden State.
Is it called the Golden State because there is gold everywhere in it? Stop making trouble!
They thought that the King of Shu would not be able to bear this grievance and might turn against his brother directly.
But things did not develop as they imagined.
The King of Shu happily accepted the emperor's arrangement, which was beyond the expectations of many members of the family.
Therefore, during this period of time, they were paying close attention to King Shu's every move.
This time, the King of Shu sent an army of 3,000 men out to sea, once again touching the heartstrings of the family.
People from the aristocratic family gathered together again to discuss this matter.
"This time the King of Shu sent three warships. Are they going to the Golden State?"
"The King of Shu's battleship is very huge. From a distance, it looks like a factory. The giant ship is at least ten meters high and several hundred meters long. It is really shocking!"
"What's even more shocking is that the speed of this battleship is so fast! It's actually not much faster than a car traveling on land!"
"Ahem! I'm off topic. This is not the focus we need to focus on this time. The focus we need to focus on is, this time, is the King of Shu sending people to the Golden State?"
People from aristocratic families, of course, coveted the King of Shu's shipbuilding technology.
If they can master such shipbuilding technology, they can start sailing, and their business will be more prosperous.
However, King Shu's technology is really too cutting-edge.
And the confidentiality measures are extremely strict, and they can't get in at all.
In fact, even if their people were sneaked in, they probably wouldn't understand the principle.
If nothing else, let’s talk about the locomotive.
It has been more than ten years since the King of Shu was created.
People from aristocratic families are also recruiting and cultivating their own scientific research teams.
Their scientific research team has produced many scientific research projects and gained them a lot of wealth.
However, their scientific research team has not been able to build a locomotive so far.
Even members of the aristocratic family sent people to contact the locomotive secretly.
Of course it's not to destroy it, but to understand the principles and structure inside.
They can barely understand the principle, but they still can't produce it.
They can't even make things that were produced more than ten years ago when they are put in front of them.
The technological gap between the two sides is really huge.
Therefore, although they coveted the things brought out by the King of Shu, they were not really interested in them.
"Well, their confidentiality work is extremely strict. Our people can't get in at all."
"We also secretly sent many ships to try to track them from a distance."
"But in the end, I was pushed farther and farther away from others, and soon I was no longer visible."
The speed difference between the two sides is simply the speed of walking and riding in a car. The gap is a bit big, how can they catch up.
"What can we do? We don't know anything about the trends in the Golden State, which is very detrimental to us!"
"Alas! Is our family destined to decline at the hands of our generation?"
Cui Zhiji of the Cui family has now lost his youthfulness and has become a middle-aged man with fair face and slight beard.
Now, he has gradually taken over the family affairs and is able to take charge of his own affairs.
If nothing else happens, he will probably take over as the next clan leader.
Cui Zhiji smiled slightly and said: "Don't panic, everyone, this time they will send some of our people to the sea."
Hearing Cui Zhiji's words, other members of the aristocratic family couldn't help but be overjoyed.
"Is it really true?"
"If that's the case, that would be great!"
"In this case, we will be able to know the true movements of King Shu."
"Do you think there really is a Golden State overseas? Is this Golden State really as big as our Datang? Is the land more fertile than the Tang Dynasty?"
"Tch, how is this possible? I guess these are just lies from the Emperor and King of Shu. Can they be believed?"
"Whether it is true or not, we will know when they come back this time!"
Nothing was discussed at this family gathering.
However, they knew that this time they actually had people in the vanguard, and they felt relieved.
…
Two months later, the advance team sent by Li Min to Golden State finally returned.
This time, the leader of the team was Qin Huaiyu.
Li Min felt extremely at ease when Qin Huaiyu worked.
After returning, Qin Huaiyu immediately came to report the situation to Li Min.
In two months, it takes more than a month to travel back and forth on the sea.
The time they spent to understand the situation was actually not much.
This time, Shangguan Wan'er came with Qin Huaiyu.
Li Min saw that while sailing on the sea, the sea breeze roughened their skin.
Qin Huaiyu is just that, Shangguan Wan'er is such a cute girl, it really makes people feel pity for her.
"Your Highness, the situation of our investigation this time is not optimistic."
Li Min nodded and said to Qin Huaiyu: "Huaiyu, don't be anxious. Tell me slowly what difficulties you encountered."
Qin Huaiyu couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, the Golden State is vast. Although compared with the Tang Dynasty, which one is bigger and which one is smaller, my subordinates can't tell, but it is still huge."
"The land there is indeed extremely fertile, and the crop yields are no less than those in the Tang Dynasty."
"The land there is relatively flat, mostly plains. It is indeed a rare and good place."
"However, the residents there are not easy to get along with. They are extremely xenophobic."
"And because of the language barrier, we almost had conflicts with them several times."
"We tried to trade with them using the goods we brought, but it turned out that it was not very successful."
"When they see good things, they don't want to trade them, but directly grab them."
"If we want to build a country somewhere, I'm afraid we will inevitably conflict with them!"
"But once the local residents can no longer be used by us, we will need too many manpower."
After hearing Qin Huaiyu's narration, Li Min couldn't help but nodded.
Yes, the Golden State is vast. How many people can be brought there from Datang?
One hundred thousand? Or hundreds of thousands?
Even if there are hundreds of thousands of people spread over a piece of land like Nuo Da, they are extremely small.
As for the migration of millions of people, it is basically impossible.
The early food supplies are simply not available.
Furthermore, what is the population of the Tang Dynasty now?
How is it possible for so many people to migrate there all at once?
If you want to build a country firmly somewhere, you must make good use of the local residents.
And the local residents sound very barbaric.
In fact, this situation is conceivable.
They are outsiders and the two sides do not understand each other's language. It is quite normal for the local residents to be hostile to them.
The key thing is still the language issue.
Li Min couldn't help but ask Qin Huaiyu: "Can you find someone who understands the languages of both parties? Is it possible to communicate with them?"
Qin Huaiyu smiled bitterly and shook his head and said: "My subordinates have also thought about this method, but they have not found it."
"The tools of the local residents are still very primitive, and they all live as tribes. They seem to have never left that land."
"I don't even know how big the outside world is, and it seems like it is the first time for outsiders to visit their land."
"Therefore, neither side can find anyone who understands the other party's language. It is very difficult to find a translator for communication."
At this time, Shangguan Wan'er suddenly said: "Brother, I remember a few of their words."
"These sentences are often used by them and should be the language used in daily communication. Unfortunately, I just wrote them down and don't know what they mean."
Hearing Shangguan Wan'er's words, Li Min's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Shangguan Wan'er is indeed very smart.
In this short period of time, she was able to remember the words of the local residents.
For pronunciations that you don't understand at all, you can only memorize them by rote and forget them easily.
And Shangguan Wan'er still dares to say that she can say it, which is enough to prove that she has been constantly reviewing these words along the way.
Everything she did was actually to help herself.
This moved Li Min very much.
Li Min couldn't help but said to Shangguan Wan'er: "Wan'er, please speak out what you wrote down and see if I can understand you."
"Okay, big brother."
Next to him, Qin Huaiyu shook his head in his heart.
Even though His Highness is a genius, he has never been to the Golden State. How can he understand the local language?
Qin Huaiyu had no hope at all.
Shangguan Wan'er said a few words that were very difficult to pronounce.
After listening, Li Min couldn't help but look thoughtful on his face.
Shangguan Wan'er asked in surprise: "Brother, can you understand what they say?"
Li Min smiled slightly and said: "I have a rough understanding. It turns out that you have violated their taboos."
These original inhabitants of the Americas were collectively called Indians in later generations.
These indigenous residents have many strange systems.
For example, their marriage only needs the consent of both parents to be consummated.
If both parties feel inappropriate, a simple ceremony can be held to divorce.
It is simply more tolerant than later generations.
They don't value chastity, whether before or after marriage.
A pair of very good friends would exchange wives for the night, thinking this was the best testimony of their steadfast friendship.
They have many festivals and rich nature worship.
And, it is worth mentioning that their mathematics is very advanced.
The mysterious Mayans, who are said to be mysterious in later generations, are actually a branch of Indians.
Later Columbus once described the Indians in this way.
They are said to be upright, simple, resolute, brave, affectionate, gentle, modest, honest, honest and generous. They can be called the most moral nation in the world.
But on the other hand, they are very stubborn.
After the invasion of the major Western powers in later generations, they were difficult to tame and were massacred.
The male aborigines were massacred by the tens of millions, almost exterminated.
The Indians handed down from later generations are basically the descendants of colonists and female Indians.
