Chapter 971 Tianjing Entertainment Company Withdraws From the Schedule

The first wave of popularity of "The Long Season" has not subsided yet, and the sudden release of the first wave of official trailers once again detonated the entire Internet and aroused discussions among netizens.

"This wave of surprises comes too suddenly. Another trailer is released so soon. Teacher Tan Yue is such a fan!"

"With this cast, one look at it makes it look like it's going to be a very good TV series. I can't wait to see it air."

"Sure enough, it is still broadcast on Sichuan Satellite TV. I love it!"

"expect!!"

"Oh my God, it's actually scheduled for May Day. It's a holiday then. I'll definitely be waiting in front of the TV on time to watch "The Long Season" air."

"I feel so happy to be a fan of Teacher Tan Yue. Yesterday I was asking when the show would be scheduled, but today I saw the news that the new drama will be released."

"For more than a month, Renren should pass soon."

Single city.

Gou Sang took a pen to write and draw on a set of questions. He was in good condition today and his accuracy rate was much higher.

The possibility of choosing all the multiple-choice questions in the public examination paper correctly is very small. What can be done now is to constantly review the questions and memorize some knowledge points through the questions.

Gou Sang turned the pen in his hand, focusing all his attention on the test questions, memorizing and reciting the wrong questions over and over again.

After more than ten minutes, Gou Sang put the test questions aside, feeling a little dizzy. Looking at the time on my phone, I have studied for more than four hours in the afternoon and am very tired mentally.

"So tired." Gou Sang stood up, stretched and yawned, took two steps and lay down directly on the bed.

With ten hours of study time every day, he still hasn't adapted to such high intensity.

After lying on the bed for a few minutes, I sat on the edge of the bed and lit a cigarette. While smoking, I picked up my phone and started playing.

"ah!?"

After seeing the news, Gou Sang straightened his body. He was still tired just now, but he immediately became energetic.

What was playing on the mobile phone was the promotional trailer for "The Long Season".

Gou Sang didn't care about smoking, and first made sure whether it was the content released by the official account.

"Nais!"

Gou Sang shouted excitedly: "May Day, "The Long Season" is scheduled to be released on May Day. It's great."

He was very excited when the TV series he had been longing for was finally announced.

Gou Sang laughed "Haha". He originally thought that asking netizens when the TV series would be scheduled was just to join in the fun, but now he realized that Tan Yue was really good to fans and responded to fans' questions so quickly.

He made a decision in his heart, even if it doesn't look good, he will pursue it to the end. Of course, he believes it will look very good!

Gou Sang flicked the ash from his cigarette, took a puff, downloaded the video to his mobile phone, and then posted "The Long Season" in the group to share it with his friends.

"Brothers, do you still remember Tan Yue's new drama "The Long Season" that I told you before? It is now scheduled to be broadcast on Sichuan TV Station on May 1st. Don't miss it then."

"The long season? It seems to have some impression. I saw it on Douyin."

"What kind of TV series is this? Is it good to watch?"

Gou Sang held a cigarette in his mouth and tapped the screen of his mobile phone quickly: "Does it look good? Please remove it. This is a TV series directed by Mr. Tan Yue himself. It is absolutely good to watch."

Gou Sang took a deep breath, threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray, and continued typing: "You will know if the drama I recommend to you is good or not."

The three people chatted in the group.

Skyview Entertainment Company, TV drama department, conference room.

Today's meeting was particularly grand, with directors, supervisors, and all management personnel from the TV drama department participating.

At this time, everyone sitting in the conference room looked extremely solemn.

They have a well-produced TV series "Devil Fruit", which had already been announced to be broadcast on May 4th a week ago, and now they suddenly see that "The Long Season" is scheduled to be released on May 1st, which makes everyone very confused.

The director who presided over the meeting said: "There are two paths before us now. The first path is not to withdraw, which is to choose to compete head-on with the new drama "The Long Season" of Bright Entertainment Company. As for our chances of winning? How big it is, even if I don’t say it, I believe everyone should know.”

"The second way is to withdraw the release and re-select the launch time. This way will cause us a greater loss. We have already started publicity and announced the scheduled release date. The sudden removal will not have a good impact on us. In addition, You still need to pay a lot of liquidated damages.”

The director frowned and said, "Everyone, tell me what you think."

"My opinion is to withdraw the show and stagger the broadcast time with "The Long Season". "Devil Fruit" has invested a lot in this TV series. If the ratings do not meet expectations, we will lose more than the liquidated damages." ”

One of the supervisors stood up and said: "I don't think there is any need to cancel the show. It is undeniable that Tan Yue is indeed very capable, but if we win in the ratings this time, it will be very profitable for us."

The father-in-law said that the father-in-law was right, and the mother-in-law said that the mother-in-law was right.

Everyone in the room had their say.

After listening to everyone's opinions, the director said: "No matter what choice you make, there are disadvantages. Now that most people support not withdrawing the file, we will follow the principle of the minority obeying the majority. I will truthfully report this to President Qin."

The atmosphere in the conference room did not become relaxed after the decision was made. Considering the interests of the company, withdrawing or not withdrawing the file is a difficult decision.

"Let's stop the meeting here for now. I'll go find Mr. Qin."

When such a big thing happened, it was necessary to report to Qin Da. As for whether to withdraw the file or not, it still depends on his decision.

President's office.

Qin Da looked at the files on the computer and heard a knock on the door.

"Come in."

"Mr. Qin, there is something I want to report to you."

"Say." Qin Da put down his work and looked at the director of the TV drama department standing opposite.

"Do you know the show The Long Season?"

Qin Da nodded slightly and replied: "I know."

"Just half an hour ago, Cuican Entertainment announced the schedule. Their drama will be aired on May 1st. And our company's drama "Devil Fruit" will be aired on May 4th. It can be said that the two dramas collided with each other. , considering the issue of ratings, we held a meeting to discuss it and decided not to cancel it, but to start broadcasting on May 4th.”

Qin Da thought for a moment and said: "No, it must be withdrawn and staggered with their new drama. "The Long Season" is directed by Tan Yue himself. It is just that the topic is now hotly searched. Not to mention its launch, their drama will definitely be popular during the broadcast. If it is released at the same time, the popularity of the topic will be crushed, and it will be difficult to get ratings. "

“Then there are also liquidated damages for the early publicity costs.”

Qin Da waved his hand and said: "Liquidated damages should be compensated. As for the publicity expenses mentioned, the loss should be stopped in time."

"I understand, I'll do it now."

Qin Da nodded helplessly. He had no choice but to do this in order to maintain the ratings of his company's TV series.

From another perspective, it is also a good choice. Competing with Tan Yue for ratings is not equivalent to jumping into a pit of fire.

Not long after, Tianjing Entertainment’s official Weibo posted a new update:

""Devil Fruit", which was originally scheduled to be broadcast on May 4th, is now unable to meet with fans on time due to some special reasons. I would like to apologize to everyone! We are also actively solving related problems and strive to meet with you as soon as possible. . Please pay attention to the official announcement for the scheduled release date of "Devil Fruit".

This announcement from Tianjing Entertainment quickly became a hot search topic on Weibo. Recently, "Devil Fruit" has been vigorously promoted, and its sudden withdrawal left many netizens confused.

"I read that right, it's been withdrawn. It's not April Fool's Day yet, so we can't make such a joke!"

"I just know how to apologize. What's the use of apologizing?"

"Special reason? What special reason? Can you explain it clearly to us? Every time something happens, there is a special reason."

"This is so funny. Recently, I often see promotional videos on Douyin, but I didn't expect them to be withdrawn like this."

"It seems that the cancellation is a good thing, so that I can keep watching "The Long Season" and save the trouble of not wanting to miss the two TV series. Thank you Tianjing Entertainment for letting me not be so entangled. I hope "The Devil" "Fruit" aired just in time for the finale of "The Long Season."

"The problem should be solved soon, right? I've been waiting for this drama, and it's even been canceled."

"Brothers, I have a bold guess. The cancellation of "Devil Fruit" may be related to the release of "The Long Season". Yesterday, the trailer of "Devil Fruit" was still being released, and today "The Long Season" has been released. , and it will also be broadcast in early May.”

"From what you said upstairs, it seems like that's really the case."

"After all, "The Long Season" was filmed by Tan Yue himself. It is so popular that the ratings will not be bad. TV series released at the same time will inevitably be affected."

""The Long Season" has its own popularity, and the topic will definitely be hot by then. I think it's good to withdraw it."

The film forum also became lively at this time.

"The latest news is that Tianjing Entertainment's new drama "Devil Fruit" has been canceled and the broadcast date will be announced later."

"One additional point: Tianjing Entertainment said it was due to some special reasons. Now many people on Weibo are speculating on the specific reasons. Among them, the more credible theory is that it is related to the scheduled release of Tan Yue's new drama."

"I think there is no director in China who dares to touch Tan Yue. They are no longer on the track."

"Teacher Tan Yue is too powerful now. After announcing the scheduled release, he actually made Tianjing Entertainment's TV series withdraw from the schedule."

"There is no way. As long as it is Mr. Tan Yue's film and television work, the popularity during the broadcast period is too high. If you don't want to cause embarrassment, it should be withdrawn."

"Tianjing Entertainment is too cowardly. It took so long to prepare the pre-heating and promotional videos, but then pulled them just because "The Long Season" was scheduled to be released. I'm cowardless!!"

Regarding Tianjing Entertainment's announcement of the withdrawal of "Devil Fruit", the discussion on the Internet is getting more and more intense. Some people feel that they understand, some people directly criticize it, and there are also people who are watching the excitement and don't think it's a big deal.

In the capital city, there is a courtyard.

"Director Sun, you are lying down drinking tea!"

Sun Daohao took a sip of tea and responded with a smile: "I'm older, so it's good to drink tea."

"Here's today's newspaper for you."

"Thank you for coming here every day to deliver newspapers to me. This box is new tea. You can take it and drink it."

Sun Daohao also knew that he was the only one still reading newspapers in the alley where he lived, and the newspaper delivery person came here every day.

"I'm so sorry, this is my job." The newspaper delivery man was very embarrassed.

"Don't be polite, it's not worth much, just take it and drink it."

"I won't be pretentious, thank you Director Sun." The newspaper delivery man took the tea and said, "By the way, Director Sun, it seems that something big has happened in your entertainment circle. I don't know much about the entertainment circle, please take a look first."

"Really?"

The newspaper delivery man's words immediately aroused Sun Daohao's interest, and he opened the newspaper to read.

"It's really a big deal!"

Sun Daohao was reading entertainment newspapers.

The news of the withdrawal of "Devil Fruit" occupied the front page of the newspaper.

Although the reports were all using speculative words to interpret the reasons for the sudden withdrawal, they were all pointing to "The Long Season" in both explicit and implicit ways.

Sun Daohao knew that these were all tricks used by the media to attract traffic, but this time he had to admit that what he said made some sense.

He has been paying attention to the development of "Devil Fruit". The publicity during this period can be said to be overwhelming, and promotional videos can be seen on various social software. With such a large-scale investment in publicity, the withdrawal of the film was announced without any warning. Sun Daohao felt that it had little to do with the General Administration of Culture, after all, the release date had already been announced.

The Long Season was announced to be released on May Day, and soon after that, Tianjing Entertainment Company released the news. Sun Daohao picked up the cup and sipped the tea. He was very sure that the withdrawal of Devil Fruit was related to the release date of The Long Season.

"This decision is decisive." Regardless of whether it is related or not, Sun Daohao gave Qin Da a thumbs up in his heart.

No one in the entertainment industry dares to compete with Tan Yue now, and no director can compete with him.

If Devil Fruit is not withdrawn, Sun Daohao thinks Qin Da is either stubborn or stupid. He wants to use Tan Yue as a stepping stone, but in the end he will only shoot himself in the foot.

No matter what the result of the withdrawal of Devil Fruit is, at least the ratings will not be affected by The Long Season during the broadcast.

Sun Daohao felt that Qin Da was decisive because he could withdraw the show when he had invested so much money in publicity. He would have to start publicity again when the show was scheduled to be broadcast again.

Sun Daohao lay on the chair and read the newspaper leisurely.

He thought that Tianjing Entertainment Company’s announcement of the withdrawal of the TV series might just be the beginning. The new dramas that were to be broadcast before and after the broadcast of "The Long Season" might make such a decision.
