Due to the time difference, when the show is being broadcast on BHKC in Europe, it will take about 8 hours for it to start broadcasting in China.
Lu Xun and Chen Mingshan from Jiangdu Entertainment were closely following the broadcast situation in Europe.
"Mr. Lu, Mr. Chen, the data from the European continent has arrived."
"How much?" Chen Mingshan and Lu Xun asked in unison. After all, this was Yan Zi's first act as a new official, and they were the ones carrying the firewood.
Both of them put a lot of effort into the early preparation of the program and the subsequent communication with BHKC. Otherwise, how could it be so easy to get the prime time on the largest comprehensive channel in Europe?
Therefore, whether this fire can be ignited is a common concern for both people.
"Ratings 2.1%, market share 13.92. Currently ranked third!"
"Third?" The two looked at each other. This result was acceptable. After all, it was a Chinese documentary and the first episode. It was a pretty good result.
Moreover, the production time of the first episode was too short. After all, it was a temporary replacement for a canceled program of BHKC. The entire program took only ten days from recording and editing to review, which was a bit too hasty.
"But the replay ratings for that day were 4.7%, ranking first!" said the staff member holding the document excitedly.
"The replay ratings for that day are the highest?" The two were delighted. The program was broadcast at 8 o'clock in the evening and lasted nearly an hour. The replay ratings for that day were based on how many people replayed the program between the end of the broadcast and midnight.
What does this mean? It means that many people who watched it the first time likely watched it again, or even recommended it to their friends. This is why the rerun ratings are so high.
This almost means that this unique documentary is going to be a hit.
"Tell the departments below that there must be no mistakes in the domestic broadcast tonight, whether it is live on TV or online." Chen Mingshan said seriously.
Program production is Lu Xun's job. What the other party is producing is likely to be a hit. If there is a problem with his broadcasting channel, he will lose both face and money. Therefore, he must ensure the smooth broadcast of the program.
Soon, at 8 o'clock in the evening local time, the program, which was previously promoted as a mysterious new column, was launched on time.
Most people didn't take it seriously, except for the people on Dongji Island who went home early and waited in front of the TV.
Uncle Gu also brought his apprentices to Master Zheng's shop, eating while waiting for the show to start.
It's eight o'clock sharp.
"Here it comes!" A child pointed at the TV excitedly.
Then he was quickly held down by his parents: "Don't talk, be quiet!"
"Hey, I've been fishing for half my life and have been underwater countless times, but I've never seen such scenes!" Bald Qiang muttered softly as he watched.
The fishermen on the side also nodded repeatedly. After all, they just made a living at sea and were not professional divers. The magnificent scenery and beautiful underwater world in the picture were something even they had never truly seen.
Not to mention many other viewers who had never been to the sea. Just the initial shots of the underwater world deeply shocked them.
As for the various shots of fishing catches that followed, they were quite commonplace to these fishermen, though they felt a bit proud because their faces appeared in the shots.
"Dad!" At this time, a child who looked no more than a junior high school student and was wearing a school uniform walked over.
"What's wrong?" Bald Qiang frowned and looked at his son.
Of course, Bald Qiang's last name wasn't Guang, but Xiong, and he had a daughter and a son. The daughter was older, and people on the island called her Big Xiong. She was engaged to Xiaohao, one of Master Zheng's apprentices.
However, this son called Xiong Er is not a worry-free person. However, as a junior high school student, he knows everything except what is in the textbooks.
Whenever Bald Qiang came home from the sea, he would basically hear about what mistakes his son Xiong Er had made. If the mistake was minor, he would just scold him, but if it was a big mistake, he would just beat him up, so the relationship between the two masters had never been harmonious.
"Dad, I'm sorry, I was wrong!" Xiong Er said with his head down. His voice was not loud, but Guang Touqiang still heard it clearly. But because he heard it clearly, he became more suspicious whether he had heard it wrong.
"What did you say?" Bald Qiang was a little dazed and asked involuntarily.
"I said I was wrong!" Xiong Er, who usually never cried when being beaten but would just stubbornly stick out his neck, now had red eyes.
Since he was a child, his father was often not around. When the school had activities that required parental participation, his father never showed up, so Xiong Er always suspected that he was just being used for his father to practice.
Until just now, I'd seen a close-up of my father's face zoomed in by the high-definition camera. He was in his forties, his beard already starting to gray, and the deep wrinkles on his face, deep in his wind-cracked skin. And there were countless fine scars on his large hands, desperately tugging at the fishing net.
To others, he may just be an ordinary fisherman, and everyone may only pay attention to his fishing activities and catches.
But Xiong Er suddenly wanted to cry, because the cheerful man in the picture was his father.
"What mistake have you made again?" Bald Qiang touched his forehead. New Year is coming soon and it is winter vacation now. This kid doesn't have to go to school. He is usually quite honest on the island.
"No, I didn't do anything wrong." Xiong Er said with red eyes, "I just feel that I was too bad before. Dad, there is still one semester left. I will study hard and strive to get into high school. If I really can't pass, I will go fishing with you."
Although he didn't know what the kid had done wrong, he was still very happy that he could think this way, and patted his son on the shoulder:
"That's all, just know how to work hard. If you can't get into high school, you can always go to a vocational high school. A fishing company is about to be established on the island, and Dongji City is also going to build a seafood processing plant. If you can find a job there after you get out and do your job steadily, I'll be satisfied."
Bald Qiang didn't understand any big principles, he just thought it was better for children to read more books and find a solid job in the future. Although he didn't look down on fishermen, as a fisherman himself, he knew how hard the job was, so if possible, he still hoped that Xiong Er could find a less tiring job.
"I know, Dad. I will work hard. I will never be as useless as my brother-in-law."
"Oh my god, you little bastard!" Xiao Hao on the side immediately exploded: "Xiong Er, explain clearly, why am I useless?"
"Your master said that you have high aspirations but lack the skills to master them. You always want to cook fancy dishes instead of practicing the basics." Xiong Er has never been afraid of anyone except Bald Qiang, let alone this guy who stole his sister's cabbage...
"You, you kid..." Xiao Hao actually has a good relationship with Xiong Er. He knows that he is mostly joking, so he pretends to get up and deal with him.
"Take your time to read. I'm going home to read!" Seeing that the situation was not right, Xiong Er slipped away.
