Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 415: The "Congratulations on Your Fortune" Exploded Overnight

On the first night of the New Year, Zhou Hao stayed awake all night.

After the Spring Festival Gala ended, he was pulled by the director team to attend the celebration banquet. Except for some elderly seniors who couldn't stand it anymore and went back to rest, almost all the performing guests who participated in the gala appeared at the celebration banquet.

When the banquet started, even leaders of several departments came over and "said a few words". Looking at their rosy faces, it was obvious that they were quite satisfied with this year's Spring Festival Gala.

In the speeches of these leaders, the three programs that Zhou Hao was in charge of were given special praise.

Two main theme programs and a song suitable for all ages, "Gong Xi Fa Cai", almost take into account all the audience groups of the Spring Festival Gala, and the real-time reviews on the Internet are quite good!
We should all learn from Comrade Zhou Hao, keep pace with the times without losing our core ideas, and create more new programs that the people love to watch...

Just these few words made Zhou Hao the most popular "hotshot" of the night. People came to toast him and try to get close to him one after another. Many of them were senior people with both virtue and talent, which made him flattered.

Finally, even director Kong Lin came over with a glass of wine, "Xiao Zhou, this glass of wine is for you on behalf of the entire director team."

Just as Zhou Hao was about to decline, Kong Lin said seriously, "I must toast you with this glass of wine. You didn't just put out a fire this time, you saved my career! The three temporary replacement programs are new and good. They not only solved the problems of this session, but also provided me with many new ideas for future stage creations..."

As he continued to talk more and more outrageously, Zhou Hao quickly picked up his glass and said, "Director Kong, stop talking. It's all in the wine."

Kong Lin was stunned for a moment, "Okay, let's do it."

The meal lasted until three in the morning. After the meal, Zhou Hao still could not leave the broadcasting hall. Instead, he was dragged by Kong Lin to check the online reputation.

With the penetration and popularization of the Internet, the influence of online public opinion on the Spring Festival Gala has become increasingly greater. It can even directly affect the actual ratings, so we have to take it seriously.

The reason why the Spring Festival Gala was determined to be reformed this year is directly related to the intense criticism in previous years.

After all, it is a national evening party, and no one wants it to really become a big spittoon.

Weibo, Tieba, Huaban, Hubu... almost all major popular social media platforms were searched intensively just to see the most authentic reviews.

By the time I finished watching all of them, it was already eight o'clock in the morning, and many people had already gone out to pay New Year's greetings with gift boxes in their hands...

Fortunately, they were quite satisfied with the final result. Most of the comments in various communities were positive. Compared with the quality of the program, what people praised the most was the new atmosphere it presented.

This shows how old-fashioned and boring the programs in previous years were.

The few doubts and negative reviews were basically concentrated on those main theme programs, especially the last one "Jiuzhoutong", which was mentioned the most times.

"YY powerful country", "only knows how to intimidate", "the people are happy and get a lot of money"...all kinds of weird yin and yang angles emerge one after another.

But no one cares about these noises. Anyone with a little common sense knows who is manipulating these negative reviews behind the scenes.

But the praise rate is not deceiving. In the unofficial statistics released by major platforms, the praise rate of this "Jiuzhoutong" is almost always among the top three, and it is at the top of the list in Weibo voting!

The will of the people is as mighty and majestic as the waves of the Yangtze River flowing eastward, how can it be changed by a few croaking sounds at the bottom of a well?
But compared to these wrinkled good reviews, "Gong Xi Fa Cai" became popular overnight in the simplest and crudest way - in urban streets, alleys in towns and villages, supermarkets and small shops, chess and card rooms and mahjong halls, and as a ringtone on the cell phones of grandpas and aunts...

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, the melody of "Congratulations on Your Fortune" could be heard in almost every corner of the country.

In order to achieve this speed of dissemination, in addition to the super traffic brought by the Spring Festival Gala, it also depends on Douyin's ability to penetrate the grassroots.

As early as the creation of this song, Zhou Hao had reached an agreement with CCTV - this song is completely free, and will not ask for a penny from the Spring Festival Gala. As long as the scene is suitable, CCTV can use it at any time and anywhere. It is also completely free for the public. As long as the singer does not use it for commercial performances to make money, other civilians can play and use it at will.

As free songs, Douyin naturally becomes the best channel for dissemination.

Douyin also successfully caught on to this wave of wealth and put almost all its efforts into promoting the song, pushing "Gong Xi Fa Cai" to almost everyone's mobile phones overnight.

In addition, the song was sung by Li Fang, who returned to the Spring Festival Gala after many years, which awakened a wave of nostalgia among the elderly audiences. With the support of multiple factors, the song showed an amazing ability to spread.

In the words of insiders - they haven't seen such a terrifying speed of breaking out of the circle in at least ten years!
The last time I saw such a huge explosion overnight, mobile phones were still in the 2G era. Since the Internet has divided the audience's viewing habits and interest preferences, very few works can unify the aesthetics of people of all ages...

But, "Gong Xi Fa Cai" did it!

How popular is this song?
When Zhou Hao returned to the hotel and took a nap, the hotel receptionist had already started playing the song on repeat.

When he turned on the TV, the background music of the CCTV New Year special program was temporarily changed to "Gong Xi Fa Cai"...

When calling Teacher Li Fang to wish her a happy new year, the old lady even told him something with a smile - because of the song "Gong Xi Fa Cai", an advertiser had already come to her on New Year's Day and wanted her to be their spokesperson.

Unfortunately, the old lady rejected it directly because the company that came to her door was engaged in "financial management"...

Zhou Hao gave the old lady a thumbs up over the phone. She is indeed an old artist with both virtue and talent. Her mind is much clearer than many young stars.

This kind of P2P scam is born a scam. Whoever endorses it will be in trouble!

After chatting for a while, the old lady suddenly asked with a smile, "Xiao Zhou, when are you going to Hongdou's house?"

"Um, I booked a flight for tomorrow."

"Is it convenient for you to take me with you?"

"what?"

"What? I am her teacher after all. It is normal for me to visit her home, right?" The old lady laughed and said, "Besides, I still have some face as an old woman. I can always say a few words when something happens, right?"

Now that I've said this, if you still don't understand, you'd be a fool.

Obviously, the old lady should have already understood the attitude of Xu Lingyue's parents.

I went with him this time just to help and support him.

The old lady was personally the matchmaker, so anyone would have to consider whether they were qualified enough to turn against her on the spot.

While agreeing, Zhou Hao also had a little idea in mind.

Is there any way to make this temporary relationship permanent?

This is an extremely powerful network of contacts!
