"Are you sure?" Malone didn't care about the Coke bottle that fell from his hand, and stared directly at Xiaoqian who just said that the ratings of "Tucao Conference" were 1.58.

Xiao Qian scratched his head and said hesitantly: "Teacher Ma, I'm not sure about this either. It's just that Director Zheng from the "Tucao Conference" just said so."

Ma Long hummed, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, you go and do your work first."

Xiao Qian responded and walked over to his desk.

After Xiao Qian left, Malone couldn't sit still.

If the ratings of "Tucao Conference" were really 1.58, that would be terrible!

Currently, Hedong Satellite TV has only two programs with ratings exceeding 1, both of which are extremely valued by the satellite TV.

"Daily Talk" has a ratings of 1.35.

The ratings of "Entertainment Tianya" are 1.1.

Among the more than 20 programs currently on satellite TV, the one with the highest ratings is only 1.35, but now "Tucao Conference" has surpassed it, and has exceeded it by a large margin.

Malone couldn't believe that "Tucao Conference" could have such high ratings. It was simply too magical.

But seeing so many people discussing it heatedly, he couldn't help but not believe it.

Wait a little longer, let the wind blow for a while, and then you will know whether it is true or false when the dust settles.

…

In the office of Gao Jian, director of the satellite TV program department.

When the office clerk came in to deliver documents, Gao Jian sat behind his desk and said, "Why is there a mess outside? What's going on?"

As he said this, Gao Jian stood up and took a look.

The clerk thought for a moment and said: "Director, it seems that everyone is discussing the ratings of "Tucao Conference"."

Gao Jian was stunned and said: "What happened to the ratings of "Tucao Conference"?"

Zheng Guang went directly to the monitoring room in the station to ask for the ratings of the second issue of "Tucao Conference", and got the news one step earlier than Gao Jian.

The clerk said: "I heard that the ratings of "Tucao Conference" are quite high, well, it seems to be 1.58."

Gao Jian's heart suffocated slightly. His first thought was that he was joking. Then he held his breath and rummaged through the pile of documents that the clerk had just sent in.

The ratings of the program groups broadcast on each Monday of each provincial channel are on a table mixed in the file.

Gao Jian quickly found the ratings table, looked at it, and his pupils shrank sharply.

Satellite TV, as the top channel among provincial channels, is distributed at the top of the table. At the top of the table, "Daily Talk" that should have been there has now been replaced by "Tucao Conference".

Ding ding ding.

Just when Gao Jian was being shocked physically and mentally, the landline phone on his desk suddenly rang.

Gao Jian came back to his senses, took a deep breath, put the microphone to his ear, and said: "Hello."

Director Yao Chong's somewhat urgent voice came out on the phone, "Director Gao, have you seen today's ratings chart?"

Gao Jian glanced at the ratings form on the table and said, "I just saw it."

"The ratings of your "Tucao Conference" are also 1.58, right?" Yao Chong's voice was a little unsteady.

Gao Jian hummed and said, "Yes."

Yao Chong said: "Okay, then come to my office and we will discuss it in detail."

Gao Jian put down the phone and waved to the clerk next to him. After the clerk left, Gao Jian put on his coat and went to the director's office.

He knew that the director was also shocked by the ratings of "Tucao Conference" this time and couldn't sit still.

…

After the news that the second episode of "Tucao Conference" had a ratings of 1.58% was confirmed, not only Hedong Satellite TV was excited, but the entire provincial station was alarmed!

Although other channels and satellite TV calculate ratings in different ways and are not ranked together, all channels pay close attention to Hedong Satellite TV. After all, only Hedong Satellite TV in the entire Hedong TV station has programs for the whole country and has the highest gold content.

Everyone knows that the flagship program of Hedong TV is "Daily Talk", which has a ratings of 1.35 and is well-known throughout the country. Its host Lin Qifeng even relied on this program to rank 300 on the list of third-tier public figures.

Ranking around 40, it can be said that he is currently the highest-ranked person on the list of public figures among all the staff of Hedong TV Station.

In many cases, "Daily Talk" is currently the external face of Hedong TV Station, because it is the only one that can be successful.

But now, many people are beginning to find that the status of "Daily Talk", Hedong TV's flagship program, seems to be shaken.

"This is too fierce!"

"Yeah, I never expected that the ratings of this "Tucao Conference" would be so high."

"This is only the second period. It's like a rocket exploding upwards."

"I estimate that if the ratings continue on this trend, it is very likely that it will break 2!"

"How about I go and break 2? Our satellite TV has not produced a program with a rating of 2 for many years."

In the "Tucao Conference" program crew, everyone was in high spirits and excited.

Tan Yue and Zheng Guang discussed it and then informed everyone that they would go to Zui Jiangnan for dinner together at noon, which could be regarded as a celebration for the 1.58% ratings of the second issue of "Tucao Conference".

After some comfort, everyone suppressed their excitement and returned to their workstations to start typing on the keyboard. They didn't know whether they were working or chatting.

It’s no wonder that the colleagues in the team are so excited. How many programs are there in total that have a ratings of over 100? Being able to participate in such a program is a blessing in itself, and the progress of "Tucao Conference" is so strong that it has completely surpassed Hedong Satellite TV.

Records, this has never happened before.

It can be said that everyone has witnessed the miracle created by "Tucao Conference". For this reason, other program teams cannot envy it.

...

At the same time, Director Yao Chong was in the office.

Gao Jian and Yao Chong were sitting on both sides of the coffee table, both of them feeling quite excited.

Yao Chong laughed and said: "Tan Yue and Zheng Guang will come over later, let's chat together."

Gao Jian nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, let's chat together."

Dong-dong-dong, the office door rang twice.

Before Yao Chong could speak, Gao Jian stood up and walked to the door and opened it.

Tan Yue and Zheng Guang outside the door did not expect Gao Jian to be here.

"director."

"director."

The two people greeted Gao Jian, and Gao Jian smiled and let them in.

"Come, Teacher Tan, Director Zheng, sit here."

Yao Chong was making tea in front of the coffee table and waved to Tan Yue and Zheng Guang.

Tan Yue walked over and sat opposite Yao Chong. Looking at Yao Chong's skillful tea-making movements, he wondered if many people were very idle after becoming leaders and had time to make tea every day?

Gao Jian sat next to Yao Chong and arranged the four teacups on the coffee table.

Yao Chong smiled and said: "Teacher Tan, Director Zheng, I called you here this time because I want to talk about the "Tucao Conference"."

Tan Yue nodded, took the teacup handed over by Yao Chong, and placed it in front of him.

Next to him, Zheng Guang took the tea cup with both hands and nodded repeatedly.

Yao Chong was not in a hurry to drink tea, and said: "I didn't expect that the ratings of the second episode of "Tucao Conference" were so high. I had a chat with Director Gao just now, and he didn't expect the ratings of "Tucao Conference" either.

The rate will go up so high.”

Gao Jian nodded and said: "Yes, our station has never had this kind of precedent before. The ratings of the first episode were 0.75, and the ratings of the second episode were 1.58, which has more than doubled."

Tan Yue said modestly: "The second episode's high ratings are inseparable from the strong support given by our station."

Yao Chong waved his hand with a smile and said: "You don't have to be modest. The program can achieve such good results because of the good foundation of "Tucao Conference". Otherwise, satellite TV does so much promotion for other programs every year, and there is no such thing.

The ratings of this program exceeded 1%.”

"Teacher Tan, after you and Director Zheng go back later, prepare a speech. At the end of the month meeting the day after tomorrow, you two will talk about your experience in filming "Tucao Conference"."

Zheng Guang said happily: "Okay, director, I understand."

Tan Yue knew clearly that this was a commendation from the director to him and Zheng Guang, the two core members of the "Tucao Conference", allowing them to shine on satellite TV. He glanced at the excited Zheng Guang, who didn't want to be famous in public, and Zheng Guang was no exception.

But Tan Yue thought, it would be better to give him more bonuses.

However, according to what Tan Yue learned, if the ratings of the program exceed one, the satellite TV will give out a bonus, but the bonus is not much. If the ratings of the program can exceed two, the bonus will be very considerable.

Tan Yue didn't know exactly how much he would give out, but it probably wouldn't be very small.

Tan Yue said: "I understand, Director."

Yao Chong chuckled and took a sip of tea. He was indeed in a good mood now, because according to the momentum of "Tucao Conference", there is a high possibility that the ratings will break 2.

What is the concept of ratings breaking 2?

Satellite TV has not produced a program with a ratings of more than 2 in five years, and Yao Chong, as the director of Hedong Satellite TV, has no glory.

At present, among the many satellite TV stations in China, only Xiangnan, Jianjiang, Jingcheng and other TV stations have the ability to produce one or two programs with ratings exceeding 2 every year. Like other ordinary satellite TV, they cannot produce one program with ratings exceeding 2 in two or three years.
