Bang! Bang!

Wow!

Kyoto, in a high-class apartment.

Huang Yin smashed all the water glasses and fruit plates on the coffee table onto the floor.

"Idiots, all idiots! It's simply an Apple Channel script and these people can't even see it?!"

Huang Yin's manager, Chen Zhi, was still calmly sitting on the couch, he was used to Huang Yin's hysteria after losing to Lin Yao.

This time was even worse.

Huang Yin wasn't even qualified to compete with Lin Yao, she could only watch her biggest rival shine off the stage, which was even worse than losing after losing.

Chen Zhi was surprised by Lin Yao's performance. He had done his homework on Lin Yao, she was a woman with a weak and introverted personality.

But the truth was contrary to Chen Zhi's judgment.

Had Mo Yan used some method to inspire Lin Yao's potential in variety shows?

Chen Zhi frowned.

If this continued, Huang Yin would definitely be thrown further and further away from Lin Yao.

However, it was actually not like there was no chance of turning the tables now.

Chen Zhi ignored Huang Yin who was throwing a tantrum and took out his cell phone to make a call, saying a few words before hanging up on Huang Yin.

"The company has decided to release your new album early, and tomorrow the company will begin full promotion."

Hearing Chen Zhi's words, Huang Yin finally stopped her frantic slamming and looked at Chen Zhi breathlessly.

"I'm not, I'm going to wait for Lin Yao's new album to come out, and this time I'm going to beat her face to face!"

Chen Zhi stood up and walked over to Huang Yin, "Lin Yao's new album is still missing three songs and can't come out at the moment, so this is your chance."

"What chance?" Huang Yin was stunned.

"While promoting your new album, I'll contact the media and marketing numbers to report more news about Lin Yao's Jiang Lang and not being able to gather enough songs for the new album."

Hearing Chen Zhi's words, Huang Yin reacted with a sudden look that turned from anger to joy.

"Yeah, with all my new albums out and Lin Yao's not coming out, the fans will think I'm better than her, and that's what's going to hit her the hardest!"

"Good to understand, get some rest early, and also, clean up the house."

Chen Zhi nodded faintly and frowned at the messy mess all over the house before he walked out of the apartment and said to Huang Yin.

"Hmph, Xiao Zhou will clean it up." Huang Yin huffed, not wanting to do anything, Xiao Zhou was her life assistant and her main job was to clean up the house that she messed up when she lost her temper.

Chen Zhi looked at Huang Yin, stopped talking, and turned to walk out of the apartment.

"What's the big deal!" Huang Yin glared at Chen Zhi's back and whispered, then sat on the couch, a sneer now on her face.

"Lin Yao, it's your turn to eat dust behind my ass this time."

........

The next day, Fang Xiaole came to the Apple station early, this morning's work is to determine the location of the location, in the afternoon will start to prepare props and advance the recording equipment.

It was now 7:50 a.m., and the heads of the various teams and the main staff were all at the station, all waiting for the results of last night's ratings.

"Vice President Fang is here?"

"Fang!"

"Little Fang, here."

As soon as Fang Xiaole walked into the show's big office, everyone greeted him, while Zhang Zhiqin and Luo Hui even waved at him and gave up the chair next to him.

"Zhang Zhiqin, Luo, you're so early too?"

Fang Xiaole went over to sit down and saw that both of them looked a bit nervous, so she couldn't help but ask with amusement.

"Morning what, I didn't sleep much last night."

Luo Hui touched the top of his smooth, shiny head, his eyes were a bit dark.

"Me too, I went back and watched the sprint bar, they're pretty good this issue too, and they've hired several big names."

Zhang Zhiqin similarly transformed into a time honcho, topped with a pair of panda eyes.

Sprint Bar was a reality variety show from Yun Hai TV, similar to the Super Challenge genre, and it also aired on Friday nights at 9pm in the prime time slot.

The two shows have been battling for two seasons, with Super Challenge originally gaining the upper hand, but since the second half of the second season, Sprint Bar has gradually caught up.

In the last few episodes of the second season, Sprint Bar finally rose to the top of the ratings, while Super Challenge fell out of the top three from its former variety ratings dominance.

After the first episode of the third season aired, Sprint Bar once again consolidated its throne as the ratings champion, while Super Challenge's ratings not only failed to improve, but also set a new all-time low of just sixth place.

Apple Channel's executives were anxious, and the show's team was under a lot of pressure.

But there's nothing we can do, people's program ideas are just better than yours, and the program content is just richer than yours, so we can only hold back if we're not convinced.

It wasn't until Lin Yao and Fang Xiaole appeared that it gave the show team, including Li Guan, hope.

Lin Yao went from being unpopular when she joined the show to a succession of stunning performances that made the two episodes explode almost all over the place.

Fang Xiaole's role was even more important, as he wrote the show plan that opened a whole new door to the super challenge, and many unheard of ideas greatly enhanced the show's watchability.

Of course, these are the show's own opinions, and the final market feedback will still be determined by the ratings.

Get back into the top three, or.... Pull the sprint bar straight off the air and regain the top ratings spot?

Or, is it still stagnant, hovering at five or six?

All of these suspense in everyone's minds would only be revealed after Li Guan got the ratings data.

"It's eight o'clock, the data should be out, right?"

Luo Hui looked at his watch, a little anxious.

The others also looked at the office door from time to time, all a little restless.

Finally, a few minutes later, Li Guan hurriedly walked into the program office.

Her short hair was still dry and her pace was swift, but her eyes were also a bit dark, and she was holding a piece of paper in her hand.

Everyone in the program knew that it was the ratings data that had just been printed out.

Li Guan didn't sell out, he just spread out the paper and read aloud.

"Our second issue had a 1.88% rating and ranked... No. 1!"

Wow!!!

The crowd jumped up and gave high fives in celebration, Luo Hui even gave Fang Xiaole a bear hug directly.

It startled Zhang Zhiqin who was preparing to high-five Fang Xiaole next to him, thinking to herself, isn't Luo Dao usually quite Buddhist? Why so excited?

"Well done, well done!"

Luo Hui hugged Fang Xiaole tightly and mumbled, then released him and turned to his old leader, Zhong Power.

After Wang Zheng resigned and left, Luo Hui and Zhong Power were the only two old people who had been on the show since the first season.

They have witnessed Super Challenge's initial success, to its gradual weakening, to its fall from grace, to its fall out of the top three.

During this period, the show's team has gone through a number of departures, and even the chief director and chief planner have changed, leaving the two of them behind.

To them, the show was like a child they had watched grow up step by step.

And now, after experiencing setbacks, this child had finally climbed that mountain once again.

"Brother Zhong!"

"Lo!"

They came together in a solid bear hug.

"It's back, all of it."

"Yeah, we're back for the kill!"

The two bulky, balding, middle-aged men hugged each other, murmuring their emotions.
