Chapter 268: Queuing up to send money, even if you rush, you can’t get away (End)
It was rare for Wang Lei to show such an expression.
Qi Xiaona on the side said considerately:
"Brother, just let President Michael worry about the ratings. As the boss, you should do your part."
Wang Lei thought about it and it was right. It was useless for him to worry about this kind of thing. He couldn't keep an eye on the TV station all the time.
"Then I'll do what I need to do, such as...watching the sea and sunset with my little secret?"
Qi Xiaona, whose belly was already slightly swollen, pinched Wang Lei's waist coquettishly:
"Do you want the secretary to loosen your bones?"
……
Doing nothing is not Wang Lei's style of doing things.
After listening to Qi Xiaona's opinion, he sent an internal email in the name of the Paramount President's Office:
“I’m proud of Paramount Television’s current results, and I’m very grateful to everyone for their contributions to Paramount!
I would like to make two points about recent events.
The four major television stations’ campaign against us is not something new today. It can be said that from the first day of Paramount Television’s establishment, their actions against us have never stopped.
We once had nothing, and during the most difficult period, our viewership share was only 0.1%.
But we gritted our teeth and persevered, and grabbed 20% of the weekend viewing share from the big four!
Today, Friends 2 is coming, and I am full of confidence in my series, without any fear in my heart.
I'm very pleased that our competitors are using their already successful flagship series to counter our new series.
Friends and businessmen are afraid of us and can’t wait to come up with their trump cards to deal with our rise!
Comrades, they are the ones who are afraid and guilty!
Even if our ratings are lower than Friends, what does that prove?
The public will feel that we deserve to lose to them, and our 'failure' is completely reasonable.
We are proud even though we are defeated!
But if we win, our friends and merchants will be completely defeated, and they will lose far more honor than we do.
So put down your burdens and travel light.
I assure you here that in view of the attacks from friends and businessmen, as long as the number of viewers of the first episode of Prison Break reaches 800 million, everyone at Paramount TV will receive an $800 bonus.
If the viewership reaches 1000 million, everyone will receive a $1000 bonus. "
As soon as this email came out, the entire Paramount, from the cleaning lady to the president Michael, was shocked.
The big boss is right. The enemy has even sacrificed himself in the sequel of Friends. Doesn't it prove that the enemy is afraid?
It is their strong rise that scares their opponents.
Now that the ratings war is about to begin, they shouldn’t be the ones to worry about.
It should be NBC that makes the decision. They have no reason to fail. They are betting on their careers.
If the ratings are not good and the expectations of advertisers are not met, it is difficult to say whether there will be a Friends 3.
Thinking of this, they immediately relaxed a lot.
Moreover, if the ratings meet the boss's expectations, they will receive a bonus. Although the bonus is not very large, it is enough for the workers to spend a happy weekend with their wives and children.
So that all the workers were very motivated at this time, and everyone was like a rivet, sticking to their posts.
Perhaps because of the successive successes, everyone feels that Prison Break's 800 million ratings is not a difficult obstacle to overcome.
They are still very confident in the quality of the jailbreak.
I don’t know who passed Wang Lei’s internal letter out.
So much so that the media quickly learned about it and published the internal letter in newspapers.
This report was widely circulated, like poking a hornet's nest.
Even some financial tycoons who were not very close to Wang Lei praised Wang Lei and said:
"Wang Lei has always been a respectable enemy. He likes real competition. No matter how this ratings war ends, he and Paramount Television will be the biggest winners."
“Wang Lei is a very powerful opponent, and some people ask why we keep blocking his expansion.
Because he is so powerful. No matter which industry he joins, it is tantamount to a revolution for an industry. We must go all out. Paramount’s current strength is just a microcosm of his many industries. It is difficult to imagine If we don't surround him, what will he do? "
Faced with the praise from his opponents, Wang Lei curled his lips. They were the only ones who could say such shameless words with such righteousness.
As for NBC, they were very dismissive of these remarks. Their president said very forcefully:
“The shopping mall is like a battlefield, winning is winning and losing is losing.
Wang Lei said something so sensational because he was afraid of losing face and losing face, so he stood up in advance and said something to save face.
As for us at NBC, will we be afraid?
I never considered losing Friends 2, so where did the fear come from? "
In fact, the people have sympathy for the weak, and they deeply agree with Wang Lei's words.
The tough face of the NBC president makes him look more like a bad person.
Many people feel from the bottom of their hearts that NBC's use of Friends 2 to block the new series Prison Break is bullying the weak. You are so awesome, why don't you block the popular "The Walking Dead".
The latest data survey shows that the ratings of the recent episodes of The Walking Dead have stabilized at more than 3000 million.
Are you afraid of running into the walking dead in Friends 2?
But the tenacity shown by Wang Lei and Paramount makes people unable to help but praise them.
Unknowingly, Wang Lei's internal letter became a hot topic among people in the beautiful country.
The public spontaneously left messages on Paramount’s official website to support Paramount’s new drama.
Paramount Television's mailboxes fill up every few minutes during peak periods.
Wang Lei had to ask someone to free up a large office to store these letters.
Seeing boxes after boxes of letters being carried into the upper floors, the entire Paramount staff had tears in their eyes.
With so many people supporting them, what reason do they have for not working hard.
Each and every one of them was preparing for the premiere of Prison Break, as if they were on a blood test.
In such an atmosphere, the beautiful country ushered in a new Thursday.
Many people were standing in front of the TV, planning to help Ramon TV no matter what.
They think very clearly that it is precisely because of the emergence of the new giant Paramount that the four major TV stations are forced to produce more good works. If Paramount TV is defeated, won’t the four major TV stations return to The original state?
But the audience is not brainless. If the quality of the jailbreak is too stretched, it does not suit their appetite.
They won't swallow it down.
Thinking about it this way, "Friends 2" and "Prison Break" were released almost at the same time.
