the next day,

los angeles times.

An interview article was published in the supplement.

"Yesterday, two news anchors from ABC revealed on their show that they were being poached by other TV stations. Not only them, but also the leading actors and actresses of "Bewitched", several anchors of "TV Shopping", Ms. Susan of "Cooking for You", and even ordinary staff members were all poached."

"The arrow is pointed directly at NBC and CBS."

"A questionnaire survey a few days ago showed that ABC and CBS, which had just changed their owners and resumed broadcasting, became the TV stations with the highest ratings and the most popular programs in the United States. The other two TV stations must have been under great pressure."

"I really like the TV series "Bewitched". It is well-made and has a lighthearted and enjoyable plot. ABC invested a lot of money and energy in it. It can be said to be the best TV series in the history of the United States."

"If the leading actors and actresses are poached, the TV series will certainly not be able to continue, which will be a major loss for all the American audiences who love the TV series "Bewitched". It will also be an irreversible and permanent damage."

"I want to say here that if there are companies that are doing better than you, you should look for your own reasons and make your program better to attract viewers and gain ratings, instead of using dirty tricks to sabotage other companies."

"This behavior is shameful."

"The reporter randomly interviewed 50 audiences on the streets of New York and Los Angeles. Among the audiences we interviewed, 48 had watched "Bewitched" and said they liked the TV series very much. The reporter told them, if someone messes up and wants to stop the show, are you willing?"

"Many people are very angry and say they absolutely cannot accept this and they will fight those evil forces to the end."

......

The first step is to create public opinion and seize the moral high ground.

......

On the morning of the third day,

Suddenly, a large group of men, women, young and old, about fifty or sixty people, appeared at the gate of the NBC headquarters. They held signs in their hands and blocked the gate for a demonstration.

The slogan on the sign reads:

"Stop persecuting ABC, we want to watch Bewitched."

"We oppose dirty poaching."

"Sabotage is the most shameless thing. NBC please stop!"

These people held up signs and shouted slogans towards the NBC office building, asking NBC to stop its shameless poaching behavior and that they wanted to watch "Bewitched" carefully.

At the entrance of the CBS headquarters building, a group of demonstrators also appeared, holding signs and shouting slogans to stop poaching.

When some people came to work in the morning, protesters held up signs and shouted slogans beside them, scaring them so much that they ran inside.

It was actually very easy to find people participating in the demonstrations. With the Corrion family's influence in New York, it would be easy to find a few thousand people.

I heard that there were protesters outside the two major TV stations.

Reporters from all major newspapers flocked over.

Reporters kept taking photos of the demonstrators, and some even filmed with cameras. The entrances of the two major broadcasting companies became even more lively.

Reporters interviewed the protesters and asked a middle-aged man, "Why are you here for the demonstration?"

"I like "Bewitched" and don't want it to disappear. The behavior of NBC and CBS is shameful. If they poach the male and female lead actors, we will never see Bewitched again in the future. This is unforgivable."

The uncle said indignantly.

"Did you come here spontaneously?" the reporter asked again.

"Yes, I have mobilized my family, neighbors, friends, and many people in the community. Today is just the first day, and I believe there will be more people tomorrow," said the middle-aged man.

"How do you know for sure that it was NBC and CBS that were poaching?"

"Who else could it be if not them? They can't do their own shows well, and can't stand seeing others do well, so they resort to such dirty tricks. It's really shameful."

A reporter interviewed a six-year-old girl.

"Little boy, why are you here with us for the demonstration? Do you understand what this means?"

The little girl blinked her cute big eyes and said in a baby voice: "My mother said that if ABC TV is gone, I won't be able to watch Macabaka anymore."

"Who is Macabaka?" the reporter asked curiously.

The mother of the child next to her said, "Makabaca is a puppet show produced by ABC called "Garden Babies". The character in the show is called Macakabaca. The children like this show very much. I heard that NBC and CBS also want to poach the creative team of "Garden Babies". This is absolutely not allowed."

The little girl next to him raised her fist and said, "Absolutely not. I don't want Macabaka to disappear."

......

The siege of the two major broadcasting companies had a very severe impact. The top management of the two companies was very troubled and chose to call the police to drive away the demonstrators.

The police finally showed up.

The police stepped forward to warn the demonstrators not to enter the radio station and not to commit extreme acts such as injuring people or destroying things.

then,

And then there is nothing else.

The police stood in the shade nearby, chatting in groups of two or three.

NBC TV station staff came out and questioned the police why they did not disperse the demonstrators. The police stood aside and said they could do nothing to help.

"They have already reported to the police. This is a legal demonstration. As long as they don't do anything illegal or radical, we have no right to interfere."

"By the way, tell your TV station leaders that there may be more people tomorrow, so you'd better come up with a solution yourselves." said the leading police officer.

The president personally called the New York police chief, and his secretary told him that the chief was on annual leave and had taken his family on a trip two days ago.

When the top executives of NBC heard the news, they were so angry that they almost smashed their teacups.

the next day.

There were more and more people participating in the demonstrations. There were no less than a hundred people gathered in front of each radio station, including men, women, young and old, and it was very lively.

Some of these people were arranged by the Corrion family, but many also came to demonstrate after reading reports because they like "Bewitched" and don't want the TV show to disappear.

los angeles times.

washington post.

There were also other newspapers, big and small, that all reported on this incident. Photos showed that the headquarters of the two broadcasting companies, NBC and CBS, were surrounded by crowds.

This time both companies suffered a great loss of face.

......

The second step is to hold demonstrations and marches to create pressure and damage reputation.

......

abc television.

midday news show.

Today's announcer was the same host who was poached by NBC and CBS the other day. After they reported two pieces of news, the hostess suddenly smiled when she saw the news. "This is a piece of news about the two major TV stations, NBC and CBS."

"Because NBC and CBS poached ABC's talent, many TV viewers are dissatisfied. Many people are afraid that their favorite TV programs will be suspended, so they have gone to the headquarters of NBC and CBS to protest. This has been going on for two consecutive days, and the number of people is increasing. Let's take a look at the scene below."

The camera switches to show the situation on the scene.

The demonstrators held up signs, cursing NBC and CBS for being despicable and shameless, and demanding that they stop poaching their employees and not let their favorite shows be canceled.

Reporters interviewed the protesters at the scene, and many of them shouted at the camera: "NBC and CBS, you should reflect on yourselves. If you want the audience to like you, you should work hard to improve yourself instead of using dirty tricks. The audience has sharp eyes and we know who is good and who is bad. NBC and CBS, you are wrong and you must apologize to ABC."

"Yes, we must apologize to ABC."

"You must apologize to ABC!"

"Apologize!"

The large crowd behind kept shouting for apology.

The camera zoomed into the studio. Two reporters were trying hard to hold back their laughter. The female host said, "After receiving this news, our station specially interviewed our staff to see if they had anything to say."

The camera turns to the ABC headquarters.

The first person to appear was Jessica Walter, the heroine of Bewitched. The reporter asked her, "Jessica, I heard someone is trying to poach you?"

Jessica smiled and said, "That's true, but I rejected it on the spot."

"Why do you refuse?"

Jessica shrugged, "I'm doing very well at ABC, why would I change jobs? I used to be an unknown little actress, but was discovered by the company and acted in a TV series. Now I'm lucky to be recognized by the audience. I want to live up to the audience's love and continue to play the role of Isabella in Bewitched."

The reporter also asked some directors, lighting and other staff, and they said it was true. A middle-aged director said something meaningful to the camera.

"I know this is a conspiracy by other TV stations, it's just a mess. In fact, even if they poach us, we won't be able to gain a foothold there. Betrayal is a shameful act, no one likes it, and even if they poach us, we will not be reused."

Several hosts of "TV Shopping" were interviewed, and they all said that someone had indeed contacted them.

"Will you leave?" the reporter asked.

"We will never change jobs. ABC is the most dynamic TV station in the United States. We love it here and believe that there will be greater development here," said the male host.

A female host next to him smiled and said in a teasing tone: "That person came to me and said he could give me a higher salary. I wanted to tease him, so I asked him how much he could give, and he said a number."

"I immediately shook my head and said, 'Do you know how much my salary is? It's twice as much as you quoted. Hahahaha, the person who poached me was immediately dumbfounded and spoke for a long time. Do you know what he said?"

"What did you say?" the interviewer asked curiously.

"He said, 'Do you guys at ABC still need people? Hahahaha, I was dying of laughter."

After the female host finished speaking, several hosts and reporters laughed together. It was even less than what the previous company offered, and they still wanted to poach people. It was really shameful.

The camera turns back to the studio.

The audience could clearly see that the two hosts had laughed a lot, and the smiles on their faces had not yet faded.

This is not news at all, it's naked ridicule and mockery.

......

The third step is to add insult to injury and turn on the mocking mode to spit in your face.

......

New York City,

Henry in action.

He set his sights on a person, Javier Zola, the vice president of NBC, who was in charge of program planning, program production, and coordination of channel management. He held great power and was the third most powerful person in NBC.

He drove out of the company, glanced at the protesters who were still not dispersing, cursed, and left quickly.

In a small manor somewhere in the suburbs,

This is his private territory.

He bought it secretly, and even his wife didn't know he had such a place.

Xavi Zola took a pleasant bath and read Playboy magazine in his pajamas. Not long after, a car drove into the villa and stopped downstairs.

Xavi Zola stood up and looked down from the window. A young and beautiful woman got out of the car. If someone from NBC was here, they would definitely recognize who this woman was. She was a new host who had been working at NBC for more than half a year.

The woman walked into the villa.

"President Zola, can you really arrange a separate program for me?"

"Of course, you know I have that power."

"Can I know what show it is?"

"ABC made the broadcast time so long that the president required that the program length must be increased and asked the planning department to come up with new programs. Anyway, it was just to make up the number. The planning department came up with a lot of educational programs that imitated ABC's Makeup Time and Perfect Kitchen."

"The planners came up with a few pretty good ideas, one of which was a childcare program where a nurse would teach new mothers in front of the TV how to take care of their babies, such as changing diapers, feeding, treating hiccups, eczema, etc."

"I think being the host of this show is a good opportunity for you. What do you think?"

"But I don't know how to raise children?"

"These are not a problem. Go to the hospital and learn for two weeks. When we record the show, we will find a nurse to teach you. Anyway, we will fool the women in front of the TV."

Harvey said, extending his hand towards the woman.

"I did what I promised, now it's time for you to fulfill your promise."

The woman struggled a little and then began to take off her clothes. Then the two of them went crazy in the villa room for three minutes.

The NBC vice president didn't know that everything that happened between him and the woman was recorded.
