"Brother Liu, what did President Xu say? He won't blame us for not putting in enough effort to get the ads, will he?"
On DaXu Video Network.
Seeing Liu Mingqian hang up the phone, everyone looked over expectantly, and some even asked with some concern.
"Don't talk nonsense. Mr. Xu called just to ask about our progress, and also..."
At this point, Liu Mingqian paused for a moment, then said:
"In addition, Mr. Xu said that if there are no advertisers, we don't need to use it. He told us to just launch 'Where Did Dad Go?' directly."
Hearing this, everyone was surprised:
"Huh? They're not even waiting for advertisers? If the ratings aren't good, won't the entire production budget be lost!"
"Yes, our video website is different from TV stations. TV stations have their own budgets, but we earn everything ourselves."
"Seriously, what's wrong with those advertisers? A variety show has to have people who like it, right?"
"Well, maybe it's because our 'Where Are We Going, Dad?' show is so novel that no one dares to take the risk!"
...
"Novel... This is indeed novel. There hasn't been a similar program in the industry yet. We're the first to try something new."
"To be honest, if this program hadn't been proposed by Mr. Xu, we wouldn't have dared to take the risk of going on."
"Brother Liu, now that President Xu has spoken, what are we waiting for? Let's go online!"
"That's right. Although there are no advertisers now, they might flock to us once the show becomes popular."
...
Amidst the murmurs of the crowd, Liu Mingqian raised his hand and said:
"Then let's do as Mr. Xu says. We won't wait for advertisers. Let's launch 'Where Did Dad Go?' directly."
"Yes, although advertisers aren't optimistic, we need to take it seriously ourselves. We need to keep up with the splash screen ads and the landscape mode on the homepage."
"Brother Liu, isn't this taking it a bit too seriously? After all, it's just a variety show."
We've been using splash screen ads and huge banner ads—those are all real money we're spending!
Some people raised objections.
But Liu Mingqian directly rejected the idea, saying:
"Do as I say. You should know that this 'Where Are We Going, Dad?' is the only show that Mr. Xu has ever paid attention to."
Since DaXu Video was established, have you seen Mr. Xu show any interest in other aspects of the website?
So it's clear that Mr. Xu attaches great importance to this program; whether it makes money or not is not important, but it's crucial to value it!
Having said that, naturally no one dared to object.
The first season of 'Where Are We Going, Dad?' had already been filmed.
The original plan was to wait for advertisers to come to the website to discuss advertising fees, naming rights fees, and so on, so that the website could recoup some money.
After all, following Mr. Xu's instructions, the production costs of this program were not cut back too much.
But those advertisers are as cunning as monkeys.
After seeing this new program without any verification, surprisingly no one was willing to be the sucker.
That's why the first season of 'Where Are We Going, Dad?' was put on hold for a while until Xu Lu personally intervened.
At this point, DaXu Video Network no longer needed to wait for advertisers, so their actions were naturally quite swift.
A series of important recommendations have all been directed at this new program.
Although Liu Mingqian felt a little pained, he felt relieved knowing it was something President Xu valued.
Performance is important, but catering to your boss's wishes is even more important.
Old Liu is a sensible man; he can't go wrong by choosing between the two options.
"I'm worried that no one will watch the show after it airs, which would be embarrassing."
After all, this plan was personally provided by President Xu. If the ratings are poor, wouldn't that mean... ahem.
Liu Mingqian coughed.
He was already thinking about whether he could use some technical means to at least make the data look better.
Seeing the actions taken by Daxu Video Network.
The advertisers who had been harassed earlier all breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, being constantly pestered for advertising fees is a very annoying thing.
Especially when faced with a variety show they don't think highly of, they are unwilling to spend a single penny, as no one wants their money to go to waste.
But cooperation is still necessary, so all I can do is keep finding excuses to refuse.
Now that DaXu Video's "Where Are We Going, Dad?" has finally gone live, these advertisers are naturally overjoyed.
They all spoke from the bottom of their hearts:
"'Where Did Dad Go?' is finally online. I don't know where they found a sucker, hahaha."
"Yeah, this kind of show has absolutely no elements to be a hit, so advertising on it is just throwing money away!"
"Finally, I don't have to be bothered by the people from the advertising department of DaXu Video Network anymore. I feel so relaxed and free."
"That's right! I've been annoyed by them four or five times already, and I almost lost my temper at one point. This lousy show..."
...
With so many websites recommending it, "Where Are We Going, Dad?" was quickly seen by the website's audience.
Zhou Rui is a white-collar worker.
She has a leisurely job every day and spends most of her time slacking off at work.
That day, after completing a very small amount of work and finding nothing else to do, she started browsing the internet aimlessly, intending to find a movie or TV series to pass the time.
As a member of DaXu Video Network, Zhou Rui quickly accessed the website:
"I wonder if there are any new TV dramas lately. Hmm, what's this?"
Muttering to herself, Zhou Rui quickly spotted the words on the banner that recommended the product.
