Chapter 303: Low Ratings

Yu Zhan used two stories in the documentary to publicly expose his peers and announced the actual treatment costs of related diseases, making the long-mysterious pet medical charges transparent and winning praise from countless netizens.

"Oh my god, can I just say this episode of 'Cute Pet Hospital' is amazing!"

"Since ancient times, merchants have only pursued profit. This is the first time I have met someone as unconventional as Dr. Yu."

"I have become a fan of Dr. Yu! When I watched the first episode, I didn't have any special feelings. But his actions in this episode really touched me. I believe he is really making the industry secrets public for the health of cats."

"Dr. Yu only charged Sister Taozi 1,500 yuan. Considering what the netizen said before, the cat was not cured even though the treatment cost 10,000 yuan. I feel that some pet hospitals are really going too far."

…

The audience who watched the documentary for the first time gave it five-star praise. At the same time, many pet owners left messages under the video to consult Dr. Yu about pet treatment.

Some people were worried that Dr. Yu couldn't see it, so they went directly to his Weibo to ask questions. Their questions were not limited to cats and dogs, but included all kinds of pets, such as flying squirrels, starlings, arowana, and cold-blooded animals like lizards... They seemed to regard Dr. Yu as the savior of their sick pets.

Because some pet hospitals and veterinarians are really irresponsible. Their first priority is to collect fees, and then they see whether the pet can be treated and how to treat it, and then they charge.

Anyone who has raised small animals knows these tricks.

The online playback volume of the second episode of "Cute Pet Hospital" reached 50w+ one hour after its release. This is an astonishing number and set a record for the playback of online self-media videos.

An hour later, the first episode of the national TV station "Pet Hospital" was broadcast. Even though the national TV station put it on prime time and spent a lot of money on various pre-promotions, the number of viewers of the online version of "Pet Hospital" was still so low after 5 minutes of broadcast that it was unbearable to watch.

Because netizens are still immersed in the shock brought by "Love Pet Hospital" 2, some people are loyal fans of Dr. Yu and don't even know there is "Love Pet Hospital". Some people would rather watch "Love Pet Hospital" again from the beginning to reminisce the story than watch this pirated version. Some people did take a look, but quit within two minutes, without saying anything to comment, not wanting to promote pirated copies, and quietly gave it one star and left.

Since "Pet Hospital" is broadcast on the Internet and television simultaneously, the middle-aged and elderly people who sit in front of the TV to entertain themselves shortly after eating or washing dishes become the main viewers of "Pet Hospital".

But middle-aged people are busy making money to support their families, so not many of them keep pets. The elderly are concerned about their own health and go to the hospital every other day, so why would they care about a pet hospital? They are not interested in this kind of documentary, and at most they will watch it for 5 minutes before changing the channel.

As a result, the TV ratings of "Pet Hospital" also plummeted.

At that time, Guo Nan saw all the data on TV and felt terrible. He couldn't understand why this happened! ?

In name, the chief director of "Pet Hospital" is the director of the documentary department, but he is just a figurehead for honor. He is responsible for fund allocation and guiding the overall direction of the entire documentary. The actual director is the deputy director Guo Nan.

After Ye Ziliang resigned, Guo Nan and the "Pet Hospital" crew moved into the capital's largest chain pet hospital, Fuxin Pet Hospital, to start filming.

The main branch of Fuxin Pet Hospital opened about ten years ago. At that time, pet hospitals were considered a relatively high-end service industry, and the prices of medical treatment were even more outrageous than they are now. Ordinary pet owners did not dare to take their pets to such places.

Fuxin Pet Hospital, on the other hand, has set its prices relatively affordable, which has won the hearts of ordinary consumers. As a result, it has stood out from the crowd of noble hospitals. Ten years is enough for it to seize the initiative in the veterinary industry. Now, its branches are spread all over the capital, and even other cities have its cooperative hospitals. Basically, all pet owners in the capital know the name of this hospital.

Therefore, Fuxin Pet Hospital is one of the older and more authoritative pet hospitals in the capital. Its services for pets are basically comparable to those of human hospitals. For example, it has outpatient, emergency and inpatient departments, open 24 hours a day, and also has an emergency telephone similar to 120, and pet ambulances are on standby at all times.

Compared with this pet hospital, Yu Zhan's pet hospital is equivalent to a small clinic.
