Chen Pingsheng returned to Tengying Entertainment.
There are quite a few newly signed female artists here. Some are still in the training period, while some are already famous.
Big names rarely stay in the company. They are either filming or performing commercial shows everywhere.
After receiving his arrangement, Bai Xin simply asked someone to talk to the person in charge of the TV station.
This time is different, it is entirely for collecting evidence.
Even if they said it with full sincerity, they guaranteed that the TV series would have good ratings.
The purchasing manager of the TV station was still not interested at all.
His meaning was very clear that if you wanted to be broadcast on their channel, you had to buy the ratings from the person he designated.
This so-called purchase of ratings is not about getting more people to watch through publicity.
They just bribed the TV station to create fake data. The benefits of fake data are obvious, and they can show it to advertisers.
In addition, this kind of false data can be used to create a false fire phenomenon on the Internet. To put it bluntly, it doesn't matter how many people are watching it.
TV stations make money from advertisers, and they use fake data to increase advertising rates.
Those who want to be broadcast on their TV stations also have to pay to buy fake ratings.
This has formed a huge industrial chain.
Bai Xin knew about this a long time ago, but at that time, Tengying Entertainment was still under the personal charge of Chen Pingsheng. He had good relationships with bigwigs such as BAT, including many retired bigwigs in Beijing.
Coupled with his tough style, every film produced by Tencent Film Entertainment is a hit.
It's almost impossible to encounter such a thing.
Later he took charge of other projects, and Tencent Entertainment also invested in many loss-making TV series.
After Chen Pingsheng failed to keep his golden signboard and handed over Tengying Entertainment to other people, people gradually set their sights on him.
After all, the TV station collects money from other people but not from you, which makes others uncomfortable!
The person who came to investigate and collect evidence this time is Yang Zilong, a director who has been with Tencent Film for almost three years.
I only filmed three TV series in total, two of which lost money, and I finally made a good one that moved me.
As a result, it was suppressed by the local TV station.
He really wanted to say, Brother, have you ever considered my feelings? I have already lost money on two films. If this one doesn’t make money, there will be no place for me in Tengying.
It is even more unlikely that other places would want a failed director like me.
Seriously speaking, for someone like him who has been an assistant director for more than ten years, it is a blessing for Tencent Film to give him three chances.
If he has to pay compensation again this time, he will definitely be labeled as a money-loser in the circle.
So, it’s either you die or I die.
Secretary Bai has already said that it is absolutely impossible to buy fake ratings with money.
It is even more impossible to get the copyright back because the contract has already been signed.
It is the TV station's freedom to decide when to broadcast the program.
If he can't get the broadcast time, he can only fire everyone responsible for this matter.
In the end, the big boss will back him up anyway, so he has nothing to be afraid of.
Yang Zilong thought collecting evidence would be troublesome, but it turned out that no one cared at all.
To be frank, it is impossible to broadcast without spending money.
Even if it is broadcast, no advertising fees will be earned.
After spending 800,000 per episode to buy fake ratings, the benefits are very obvious, at least it can ensure a stable entry into the top five.
I'm not talking about the top five of the year, but the top five of this month.
People even directly said that who wouldn’t buy fake ratings for those TV series with top ratings?
We treat everyone equally.
Yang Zilong's evidence collection process went extremely smoothly. After he came back, Bai Xin immediately arranged for him to meet the big boss.
Yang Zilong was a little excited. He had been here for three years and had hardly met the boss.
It can be seen that he is not doing very well.
Chen Pingsheng was drinking tea in his top-floor office and taking a look at Tencent Entertainment's financial data this year.
Many big-budget TV series could not be broadcast, and several movies also lost money. This year's performance was obviously much worse than last year.
After Yang Zilong came in, he handed the recorder he had taken to Chen Pingsheng.
"Uncle, this evidence is enough."
"It should be possible."
Chen Pingsheng said, "Make a few copies of it and report it to the station director first. If there's no news within three days, take it to the Radio and Television Bureau."
Local television stations are basically corporate in nature and are managed by the Radio and Television Bureau.
If this doesn't work, then we can only go to the capital.
In fact, there is another fastest way, which is to create a big buzz directly on the Internet.
This method is also the most undesirable and can easily cause dissatisfaction among some bigwigs.
Especially for large companies like theirs, people will think that they are deliberately manipulating public opinion.
There is a certain tendency to force the emperor to abdicate.
Chen Pingsheng would rather find someone to deal with it than expose it online like this.
That is clearly offensive.
If this didn’t work, Chen Pingsheng looked at Yang Zilong.
You've already caused the company to lose tens of millions. It's time for you to sacrifice yourself.
Individuals can use certain online public opinion to report or hype things, but large companies absolutely cannot.
Yang Zilong went to find the director without stopping, the evidence was clear.
People also told him that the case would be dealt with seriously.
He was quite happy, but after three days there was no news, so he was just told to wait for news.
He went to the radio station again and received the same response.
Deal with it seriously but take time.
A week passed and there was still no news, so he went to the capital again.
Still no response.
Yang Zilong ran so hard that he was numb, and this is the result.
He simply came back to find Bai Xin and asked her for the boss's opinion.
If the big boss is willing to step in, this kind of thing can be easily resolved.
Why should a small director like him run around?
Bai Xin really wanted to tell him, what the hell are you thinking about?
If the uncle is so idle, why does he need people like us?
Tengying Group is not just Tengying Entertainment. There are seven or eight listed companies with a market value of over 10 billion yuan.
You want Uncle Chen to handle this little thing? You are not afraid of being scolded, but I am.
Seeing him like this, Bai Xin could only resort to some self-sacrifice.
There was an incident in Guangdong where a real estate company attempted to demolish a family’s ancestral temple, but the family resorted to drawing death lots.
Whoever draws this death lot will have to kill the real estate boss.
The rest of the wife, children, parents, etc. are all supported by other family members.
I have to say that this family is quite united, and no real estate agency dared to demolish it.
The situation is now very clear. It is time for Yang Zilong to be the light of justice.
No matter what the final result will be, it will definitely be difficult for him to survive in the entertainment industry.
This is bound to be the case.
Tengying Group can provide support behind the scenes, but the presence of the big boss must never be visible.
Some things are just so wonderful.
Bai Xin arranged for him to give a justice speech at the university and directly reveal the matter.
By the way, take some short videos and upload them online.
After the incident has fermented on a small scale on the Internet, they will contact some colleagues behind the scenes to speak out on the matter together.
No matter what the outcome is, the one who asks them for money will definitely have to step down or even go to jail.
However, it is inevitable that some of the beneficiaries will be offended, and Yang Zilong will have to bear all their anger.
You, a failed director, didn't make any money from making movies, but in the end you became a ray of justice in the entertainment industry.
It’s pretty good too.
Bai Xin actually knew that if Uncle Chen were to do this kind of thing, he would just have to say a word.
But he couldn't do it, for the simple reason that it didn't suit his current identity.
When the group has to sacrifice some people, they must do so.
At least after Yang Zilong has done this, he will definitely not be able to stay in Tengying Group.
And the person responsible for firing him must not be Chen Pingsheng.
It can only be someone else, Yang Zilong must be the scapegoat.
