Chapter 99: Becoming famous overnight, what a clever trick
Gao Changhe was singing in the nightclub at that time, surrounded by a bunch of bosses and beautiful girls.
Of course, it’s not heaven on earth.
It’s not that Gao Changhe can’t afford to go there. Although that place is expensive, it’s still no big deal for Gao Changhe.
He really doesn't like to go there, because with his wealth he can't act big in that place.
When she heard the call from Liu Lei, the producer of Mango TV, she immediately picked up the remote control and said, "Stop singing, stop singing, watch TV for a while."
A man was singing "Serve the Country with Loyalty" and it was cut off. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. The girl next to him put his hand on her body and said, "Brother, stop singing. Just touch me for a while."
Gao Changhe started to change channels, but before he reached Mango Channel, he stopped.
This is Phoenix TV.
"Hey, this woman is good, she looks really attractive."
Suddenly, several men hurried to watch TV.
Although she was dressed very conservatively, wearing a veil, and her exposed face was not heavily made up, she still looked surprisingly beautiful.
The key is that it is very powerful, flavorful and gorgeous.
"What's your name?"
"Phoenix TV's overseas reporter, my name is Li Shuang."
"This woman is such a coward that she even dares to go to Afghanistan. Isn't there a war going on there?"
"She's not afraid of being shot."
Gao Changhe sneered, "It's a bit hard, but it's nonsense to say it's dangerous. There are a lot of war correspondents from the United States and Europe there. Phoenix TV has hired a group of mercenaries. Does CCTV's "Eastern Horizon" host Zhang Quanling know about it?"
"I know. She's pretty."
"She will be going to Afghanistan soon. It's a tough place, but it's a good place to build her reputation and gain fame."
"Zhang Quanling? She might be a step behind. She is not as pretty as Li Shuang. I think she will be the center of attention."
However, after just a brief chat, Gao Changhe immediately switched the TV to Mango Channel.
"Rose Date, isn't this a blind date show? What's so good about it? There's nothing explicit about it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the camera turned to Miranda.
"Wow, it's actually a foreign woman, and such a beautiful foreign woman."
"No, it's not enough to just be pretty. The key is that this foreign woman has hooked eyes and is flirty, a bit like..."
Gao Changhe said: "The beautiful and sexy woman in the beautiful legend of Sicily, Monica Bellucci."
"Yes, they don't look alike, but their temperaments are very similar."
"Damn, how tall is this big foreign horse? When it stands up, it's taller than the others."
Miranda began to introduce herself: "Hello everyone, I am Miranda, from Alabama, USA."
"My life motto is, you can be ugly, but you can't be fake."
As soon as these words were spoken, all the men in the audience laughed.
"Fuck, I like this woman. When did this show on Mango TV get this far?"
Then, Miranda said: "Next, I will show you my special talent, Golden Rooster... Stand on One Leg."
She could hardly say these four words, Chinese was so difficult.
Without saying a word, she bent her right leg up and lifted it above her head, with her legs spread more than 190 degrees.
That was not all. She then took advantage of the momentum and used her left foot to rotate her body 360 degrees.
All of a sudden, all the gentlemen in the audience were shocked.
"Awesome, this technique is awesome..."
"This woman's body is already very hot, and this makes her even more hot."
Then the beautiful and wild Qu Feifei came on the court.
"Hello everyone, I'm Ou Feifei, and I'm a model."
"My life motto is I'd rather cry in a BMW than laugh on a bicycle."
The host asked: "Do you have any talents that you can show?"
Ou Feifei: "Does being pretty count? No, then does being rude count?"
Almost from the beginning, the whole show was full of energy.
In fact, it was not like this at the beginning of the recording. Miranda's famous saying and Ou Feifei's heart-piercing quotes were all said during the show.
However, the program team felt that since they had to take the risk, they should take it to the end.
Sparks fly from the very beginning of the show, trying to retain the audience, otherwise the audience will change the channel while watching.
Just like some readers, they keep you for a while and then run away.
Gao Changhe’s business is very broad, including TV and movie production, so he got a taste of the business right away.
Awesome!
That’s really awesome.
The show started like this, the rhythm came right away, didn't it? Then, the rhythm became more and more intense.
Especially when the male and female guests start to interact.
Miranda, a foreign woman, doesn't speak standard Chinese and knows very little.
But all the sentences I know are related to that aspect.
The bold and open manner of her words, coupled with the frequent golden sentences, made the male guests blush and even wanted to shrink their heads.
"Male guest, you look very weak, do you want to see an old Chinese doctor?"
"You can't. Your nose is too small."
"Let me see your waist. No, it's boring just by looking at it."
"Male guest, you are too short. You can't reach me when we stand together."
It wasn't just the male guests who were blushing, there were countless men in front of the TV who were blushing as well.
Damn, this foreign woman is so shameless.
Mango TV is so shameless.
And when Qu Feifei spoke, it became even more explosive.
Every word was aimed at the lungs of countless men.
"What? You're thirty years old and can't afford a car, and you still have the nerve to come on a blind date?"
"I have no money, but I can become rich at any time, do you believe it?"
"A beautiful woman like me will be rich if I fall. If you fall, you will be even poorer."
"I'm sorry, I've never ridden a motorcycle, so I don't know what the romance is. The worst car I've ever ridden was a Toyota Crown."
"Oh, I remembered it wrong. I also rode in a Nissan Bluebird once."
Gao Changhe saw this and sent a text message to Liu Lei: Are you crazy? Why are you doing this? Liu Lei: Originally, it wasn't so fierce, but Boss Ouyang said that since we have to argue, we should just take a risk and see the effect, and then we can hold back a little bit.
Gao Changhe: You will be punished.
Liu Lei: As long as the ratings can go up, getting fined doesn't matter. Other satellite TV stations are selling transparent underwear, and they are almost about to be exposed.
It is true that in the early 2000s, the standards in all aspects were much more relaxed than they were 20 years later.
In this way, the editing effect of this episode of "Rose Rendezvous" is very explosive from beginning to end, and the effect is very dense.
Controversial sentences and poignant words come one after another.
The rhythm of the whole program has also become much more exciting.
Compared to the previous drowsy gaming session, it was so much more exciting.
Mango TV’s phone was almost blown up.
Countless people called and cursed at me.
"What's wrong with your show? Do you still want social values?"
"Vulgar and snobbish, where is your original intention?"
"I'm going to report you. I'm going to report you."
Calling the TV station was a thing of more than ten or twenty years ago. Nowadays, viewers rarely call.
But this time, "Rose Date" still hit people's nerves and attracted a lot of criticism.
After the broadcast, Liu Lei and Deputy Director Ouyang felt uneasy.
I even feel a little regretful. Did I go too far? I should be more restrained. Even if there are controversies, they should be less controversial.
However, the downward trend of this program is indeed too obvious. After all, it is already its fourth year.
According to historical trajectory, this program will come to an end in three years.
You should know that three years ago, the ratings of this program even exceeded Happy Camp, and it was one of the three trump cards of Mango TV.
The ratings for the previous episode barely maintained at around 1.4%.
Although this number is good, it is more than halved compared to its peak.
Now in order to reverse the decline, such controversial content is broadcasted. I don’t know whether the ratings have increased, but the criticisms have been coming one after another.
"Don't worry, don't worry."
"Wait for the ratings tomorrow at noon. If they go up, it will prove that this is the right thing to do."
Noon on March 18th.
Liu Lei, Qiu Xiao and others were anxiously waiting for the ratings report.
During this short period of time, viewers continued to call in to curse, and the situation had already begun to ferment online.
Most of them were cursing, and this massive amount of cursing was really disturbing.
Director Ouyang got the ratings report for the first time and his eyes suddenly widened.
Then, he shook his arms vigorously.
"Master, how is it? How is it?"
Director Ouyang said: "1.9%!"
“It’s up 35%!”
Suddenly, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Awesome! I won the bet.
Although the audience rating of 1.9% is still not particularly high, it has been declining before and there is no way to stop it.
What does it prove that the movie is going up against the trend now? It proves that no matter how many viewers curse it, once they start watching it, they will watch it to the end.
"For the next episode, find a way to get these two people to continue and design more classic quotes."
"That Miranda can design bolder interactive actions."
"Qu Feifei's eyes and temperament can be more ignorant and arrogant."
“It continues to be controversial, it continues to be criticized, and it continues to rise.”
……………………
It’s a pity that video websites haven’t appeared yet in this era, otherwise the situation would have fermented even faster.
Next, Lin Xiao didn’t even need to push him.
Mango TV took the initiative to provide screenshots and content to many newspapers and portal websites.
"Mango TV, do you have any bottom line?"
"'Rose Date', where is your morality?"
"How can people be so shameless?"
In short, I was just scolding myself.
The screenshot shows Miranda’s sexy splits and Ou Feifei’s ignorant and arrogant expression.
The controversial and lewd words in the video not only began to irritate the nerves of TV viewers, but also began to irritate the nerves of netizens.
Of course, the speed at which the Internet was developing at that time was far slower than that of twenty years later.
But...at least the trend has emerged.
In order to continue to hype up this program, Mango TV has invested in public opinion power that Lin Xiaoyuan cannot match.
At the same time, in order to support Miranda and Ou Feifei's journey to becoming internet celebrities.
Itch.com has undergone a major update and launched eight photo albums.
The sensation it caused was not as great as when the three major photo albums were first released.
But... it's very long.
It still received strong praise.
"Master Ergou is truly worthy of being the spiritual leader of LSP. He knows exactly what we want."
"Can I tell you the truth? I actually like this photo shoot more. The last three photo shoots were too artistic, not real enough, not vulgar enough, but this time, it touched my heart."
"Me too."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"My favorites are the series about three women planting rice, the series about a widow carrying wood, and the series about the ten tortures of the Qing Dynasty."
"The three girls planting rice really blew my mind. I couldn't even tell whether it was a photo album or a memory. I was very young at that time. The neighbor aunt in front of me was bending over to plant rice. I looked up and accidentally..."
“This is a memory that I will never forget.”
"I like the widow carrying wood. She carries dozens or even hundreds of kilograms of wood on her back, as if she is about to burst. Her clothes are soaked with sweat and have many holes..."
"My favorite is the Ten Greatest Tortures of the Qing Dynasty..."
The number of monthly membership users, which had begun to decline slowly, began to rise again.
As pirated videos spread, a large number of users flocked to Yanwang and Zhuangfou.
At this time, the content was updated daily on the homepage of Yangwang, on the BBS, and even in the four great books.
The same countdown appeared in all of them.
There are still twenty days until April 10th.
There are still nineteen days until April 10th.
Countless people couldn't help but wonder, what exactly would happen on April 10th?
This publicity is too big, even bigger than the last time the mobile SP membership monthly subscription was launched.
……………………
"Rose Date" will premiere in prime time on Sunday and will be rebroadcast next Friday.
Generally speaking, the ratings of reruns are not high, not to mention that they are not during prime time.
But there was no online video at that time, and Mango TV invested a lot of resources in publicity and hype, which caused huge controversy on the Internet.
Many people want to see what is going on. If they missed the premiere, they can watch the rerun.
As a result...the ratings for Friday's rebroadcast really exploded.
1.6%.
The producers were stunned when they saw this number.
This... the ratings of this rebroadcast are actually higher than those of the previous premieres.
Is the power of online hype so strong? How could it be otherwise?
The controversial Mano caused the ratings of If You Are the One to soar from around 2% to 3.78%.
Although the current viewership has increased significantly, it is only because the Internet's communication capabilities were not strong in that era, otherwise it would have increased even more.
A new week is coming soon, and a new episode of "Rose Date" is about to be broadcast.
Director Ouyang said directly: "Re-edit it, make the rhythm more intense and more controversial. If necessary, you can even slightly change the lines and let them re-record it."
"Forget it, it's too late. When we record again, we will once again magnify their personality labels and their controversiality."
"In the upcoming broadcast, try to give more screen time to Miranda and Ou Feifei."
March 24th.
The new episode of "Rose Date" was broadcast as scheduled.
The pace of this episode is the same as the previous one and it is still very intense, but more scenes are given to Miranda and Ou Feifei.
Let these two people express themselves more freely.
It is still full of huge controversy.
Miranda can be described in one word: wild.
There is only one word to describe Ou Feifei: vanity.
Countless viewers actually cursed while watching the show.
But what’s strange is that not many female viewers cursed after watching the show. Instead, they felt that Qu Feifei was a very real character.
Even Miranda is very real and frank.
Amidst this controversy, Liu Lei won the highest ratings for this episode of "Rose Date" the next day.
2.7%.
The whole person was suddenly filled with excitement.
The last time it soared to 1.9% was already a surprise, and this time it soared again to 2.7%.
This, this is almost reaching the peak that this show has ever reached.
That’s really awesome.
I didn't expect that they could reverse the decline and regain the ratings in this way.
She hurried to report to Director Ouyang.
“Keep investing and keep hyping it up online.”
"It is better to pursue the enemy with your remaining courage than to seek fame by imitating the tyrant."
Liu Lei said: "Well, will the higher-ups criticize us? I've heard rumors, and they're a little bit upset."
Director Ouyang said: "Then wait until the criticism comes. The worst that can happen is a fine."
"First, squeeze the value of Miranda and Ou Feifei to the extreme."
“While recording the new show, we will continue to highlight these two people, but we will also be cultivating new personalities, new controversial figures.”
"Miranda and Ou Feifei are too beautiful. Finding an ugly, poorly built, low-educated female guest who thinks highly of herself and doesn't know how high the sky is will cause even greater controversy." (Ding Dongli, another big star of If You Are the One, said that this lady is even more controversial than Ma Nuo)
Ouyangtai has finally found the traffic password.
Producer Liu Lei called Gao Changhe directly and said, "Thank you, Mr. Gao, for recommending these two female guests to me. You really deserve to be in the film and television industry. Your skills are first-rate."
"Our ratings have soared, and you have contributed a lot to it. Please thank President Xia on my behalf."
……………………
With the airing of two episodes of "Rose Rendezvous", the booming ratings and exposure brought by it are self-evident.
And there is no need for Lin Xiao to take action, as Mango TV’s online hype is also huge.
In just twenty days, Miranda and Ou Feifei became famous overnight.
Miranda's nickname is Sister Lang.
Qu Feifei's nickname: BMW Sister.
Her words, "I would rather cry in a BMW than laugh on a bicycle," began to spread across the Internet.
Twenty years later, it might only take twenty-four hours for an internet celebrity to become famous.
But in 2002, with the dual advantages of television programs and the Internet, twenty days was more than enough.
April 6th!
There are still four days left until the launch of the Yangyang Live Broadcast Room.
Countless users of Yinwang are curious about what will happen on April 10th.
What’s the answer?
Reveal it quickly.
The entire website and all channels are counting down? Don’t you know that curiosity can kill you?
As the countdown approaches, the number of users of Yangwang has once again increased collectively.
No one knew what to come to see, but for some reason, they just wanted to come and see it.
Miranda and Ou Feifei, internet celebrities, were invited to attend the Shanghai Auto Show.
This is one of the largest auto shows in the country.
And what a coincidence, the manufacturer invited is BMW.
I can only say that BMW, you guys understand marketing.
In fact, the first copywriter for Qu Feifei was Mercedes-Benz, but later she felt that BMW had a more luxurious temperament, so she finally used BMW. After all, Mercedes-Benz did more abuse than BMW in her previous life.
As a result, BMW was also hyped up and suddenly became synonymous with high-end cars. Mercedes-Benz was very unhappy about this because we are obviously 0.3 levels higher than BMW.
Two women, dressed in sexy outfits, attended the auto show to promote BMW.
The requirements for car shows at that time were very relaxed, and car models could wear whatever they wanted as sexy as possible.
Miranda and Ou Feifei are no exception, especially Miranda's outfit.
Because of the popularity of the two people, the BMW booth was packed with people from the beginning.
Countless audiences rushed to take photos with Miranda and Ou Feifei.
At this time, a small accident happened.
A male audience member quickly walked through the crowd, took out a bucket of something from his bag, and poured it directly at Qu Feifei.
"Shame on you, vain girl!"
Everyone exclaimed.
Miranda hugged Qu Feifei as quickly as possible and used her back to block the splashing liquid.
It's paint.
Red paint! Some of it splashed on Miranda's back, and a little on Ou Feifei's white thighs.
Most of it was splashed onto the silver BMW Z8 sports car behind.
This scene was not directed or acted by myself.
It was really just an accident.
Soon, the man who threw paint was pinned to the ground by the security guard.
If nothing unexpected happens, he will probably have to pay a huge sum of money.
The whole place went wild with countless reporters desperately pressing their shutter buttons to record this extremely exciting scene.
Everyone instinctively felt that this scene might explode.
The two women who were already very popular may become even more popular.
Lin Xiao and two men rushed out almost immediately, wrapped Miranda and Qu Feifei's bodies with windbreakers, and protected them as they left.
"Let's go, let's go, let's go..."
"Don't take any chances, don't take any chances..."
"Go home, let's go home..."
Qu Feifei smiled at Lin Xiao with her pretty face, but there was still a little bit of lingering fear.
There were a few spots of red paint on her delicate and beautiful face, making her even more wild and sexy.
She trembled and said to Lin Xiao: "Boss, I'm fine, I'm fine."
"As long as I can contribute to the company, I'm happy."
"This will make us even more popular."
"I think our Itchy Live Room will be successful."

Note: Today's update is 12,000 votes, and I am about 700 votes away from the fourth place. I don't want to give up, and I want to give it another try, is that ok? (End of this chapter)
