Time flies, and the third episode of "Lucky 52" has been recorded.
Three days later, the second episode was also aired as scheduled.
As expected by insiders, the ratings for the second episode were higher than those for the premiere.
It’s 1.9 points higher – 7.1!
The ratings directly broke 7, which was beyond the expectations of insiders.
Everyone thought that the second period would break 6.
Break 7
It’s still early, at least four or five issues later.
But the second episode of "Lucky 52" just did it.
People in the mountain city are talking about it everywhere, asking, "Did you watch 52 last night? It was quite good."
Many people also signed up, thinking that they might be able to win a prize.
"Oh, it's broken 7, making it the variety show with the highest average viewership currently on our channel." Old Zhao couldn't stop smiling.
He is on the list, and more importantly, his performance bonus next month will definitely be more than this month's.
And this isn’t even the peak period.
Many wealthy people who are looking for business opportunities have come here and want to get on board.
It's unacceptable for a program with such ratings to have only one sponsor.
In this way, from top to bottom, the program staff will naturally not lack benefits.
When the third episode was aired and the ratings came out, everyone was dumbfounded.
Break 8!
So fast!
Although everyone thought it would break 8 after the premiere, it happened too quickly.
Which of those channel's flagship programs that achieved the score of over 8 at the beginning did not go through eight or ten episodes of word-of-mouth fermentation and audience accumulation
However, "Lucky 52" only took three issues.
Lao Zhao's office.
"Brother Zhao, what do you want to talk to me about?" Yang Fan was a little confused when he was called by Old Zhao alone.
In the past, Old Zhao had given him, Li Weimin and Yang Ruyi a laissez-faire attitude and seldom assigned them any tasks.
Even if we arrange it, we will go directly to their offices.
"Well, I'm looking for you about becoming a regular employee." Lao Zhao seemed to be in a good mood.
"Isn't it still too early to get a permanent job?" Yang Fan wondered, as the internship period is only three months.
It's less than two months now.
Old Zhao was a little disappointed and said, "I'm talking about the transfer to a regular employee."
Yang Fan was stunned.
When TV stations recruit people now, there is no such thing as becoming a regular employee directly.
Many people need to wait for ten or eight years before they can be converted into formal employees.
Before this, they were all employees and contract workers.
There is a huge difference between contract workers and employees.
First of all, the treatment.
The performance and bonus coefficients of workers are higher than those of employees. Moreover, employees have a stable job and a regular staff.
If you are a contract worker, the station can fire you if they want, and at most they will compensate you with a few months' salary.
Employees cannot resign, they can only buy out.
For example, if a 40-year-old employee in the station has 20 years left before retirement, if the station fires this employee, it will have to pay him 20 years of salary first.
This is the origin of the iron rice bowl.
The company would rather let this employee do nothing than fire him.
Only a fool would do that.
"Brother Zhao, I haven't even finished my internship yet, why are you talking about becoming an employee?" Yang Fan wondered.
Old Zhao smiled mysteriously, "Special talents must have special treatment. Haven't you seen that some celebrities can get into famous universities and settle down in Shanghai, which outsiders dare not even think about, just by relying on their fame? I heard that even if you buy a house in Shanghai, you may not be able to settle down there. Celebrities don't have to do anything, Shanghai welcomes them with open arms. Our station is learning from Shanghai."
"Uh." Yang Fan asked curiously, "Brother Zhao, Lucky 52 has only aired three episodes. Even if the ratings are good, it's impossible for me to be transferred to an employee."
Old Zhao nodded: "Yes, there is a limit on the number of special talents who can be transferred to employees every year. You will miss the last train this year, but there is hope next year."
"Then what do I need to do?" Yang Fan asked, "Just wait for 'Lucky 52' to continue airing. As long as the ratings don't drop too much, I will be shortlisted automatically?"
Old Zhao was speechless: "What the hell do you want? You're still waiting. I don't know how many people are waiting in the station. They will never get what they want in their lifetime."
"Then what should I do?" Yang Fan asked humbly: "Should I give you cigarettes and alcohol, or should I give them to some leader?"
Old Zhao slapped his head and said angrily, "It's useless even if you send me a whole car. I can't make the decision. Send it to the leader? The leader needs your cigarettes and alcohol? Don't you know how much you weigh? Can you send a few million? If you have this much money, why are you trying to transfer employees?"
"That really stumps me, Brother Zhao. Just tell me what you need me to do. As long as it's not drinking with you." Yang Fan said.
After hearing the first part, Lao Zhao was very happy, but after hearing the second part, he wanted to tell him to get out of here.
After calming down, Lao Zhao said seriously, "To be honest, my boss talked to me yesterday and told me something tactfully. He has a niece who just graduated with a major in broadcasting and has worked in the capital for a few months. Now she's back and wants to come to our station."
"Then what?" Yang Fan asked.
After hesitating for a moment, Lao Zhao said, "I'm telling you tactfully now that you have to come up with a new show to make our boss's niece famous. Well, at least this show can't be much worse than "Lucky 52"."
Yang Fan was silent.
It’s really good to have relationships.
At first, he couldn't get into the TV station, and he only got in thanks to Aunt Thirteen's relationship.
Now look at them, not only can they come in, but they can also use the resources of the station to tailor a program for them.
The world of the powerful and wealthy is simply unimaginable to ordinary people.
"Xiao Fan, you are still young. For the sake of becoming a regular employee and for the sake of the employees, you should work hard as much as you can." Lao Zhao encouraged him, "I have already spoken frankly with the leader. Lucky 52 was entirely your idea. So the leader and I want to give you the task of preparing a new program for the leader's niece."
"Writers for new programs don't come easily." Yang Fan was a little embarrassed. He had finally settled down recently and was preparing to start doing private work to make a lot of money.
Suddenly, such an energy-consuming and time-consuming task comes up, which makes me feel worried.
Making a show is a job, a part-time job.
Writing scripts is my career.
The money earned is not on the same level either.
"Ahem." Lao Zhao reminded, "When the leader invited me and Director Li to dinner, I met his niece. She is very beautiful, especially her eyes, which are very spiritual. I heard that she doesn't have a boyfriend yet. I have created an opportunity for you. It's up to you next."
"Is it beautiful?" Yang Fan immediately patted his chest and said, "The task assigned by the leader must be completed."
"That's good, Xiaofan, I have confidence in you!" Old Zhao said with a smile.
"Give me a year..." Yang Fan said.
Before he finished, Lao Zhao's face darkened. "It will take at most ten days, not a year, to produce the planning document. The recording will start in three weeks, and the half-dead program on the urban channel will be replaced in a month and a half."
"Huh?" Yang Fan was puzzled: "Why is it from the Urban Channel? Isn't it our channel?"
Lao Zhao said angrily, "We have already killed the program Happy Mountain City on our channel. Isn't that enough? Which one do you want to kill?"
