After rebirth, I became a great master

Chapter 505 Take action
night.

Dong Lan wanted to invite Zhou Haoran to dinner, but he declined.

Another busty woman in the coordination team, Ren Panxia, ​​also wanted to treat him to a meal to thank him for helping her transfer jobs. He actually arranged for her to work in the finance department of Red Star TV, but he still didn't agree.

In addition, Jiang Yue, a makeup artist on "Everyone's Art Up," was Zhou Haoran's junior high school classmate. She studied styling and makeup in vocational school and was transferred to the TV station through his connections.

The invitation was also rejected.

Zhou Haoran is very busy.

In the evening, I attended Zhang Yongxiang's social gathering.

Recently, Antarctic personnel have become a key focus!

This is not only related to the development of Antarctic people themselves, but also closely related to Zhou Haoran's balance in his workplace.

The time is ripe!

It's time to take action against Yi Changping!

the next day.

Zhou Haoran went to his workplace early in the morning to talk to Director Shan Wendong.

Let's begin with reform.

"Director, here's the thing: 'Everyone's Art Up' has added sponsors to 10 more programs, generating an additional 500 million yuan in sponsorship revenue." Zhou Haoran quietly reported. "Some people want to put all of this money into the public account."

Shan Wendong said, "Expenditures are paid from the public account, and income also goes to the public; this is the station's system."

“It needs to be changed!” Zhou Haoran shook his head. “Director, it would be fine if it were just an ordinary program. But ‘Everyone’s Artistic Awaits’ has the potential to create so much wealth that we need more advanced reform measures to protect the program’s vitality.”

"The timing is not right..."

Shan Wendong sighed.

Zhou Haoran frowned. "Director, if the money isn't distributed properly, it's easy for problems to arise. The core element of state-owned enterprise reform is the reform of the money distribution model. It's the same principle as whether land should be returned to the collective or contracted out to individuals. Only when the benefits fall into the hands of individuals can the greatest productivity be stimulated."

As the architect of Hongxingtai's reforms, Shan Wendong naturally understood this principle: "There are too many deep-rooted problems that need to be eliminated, Haoran... This matter cannot be rushed, it must be done slowly."

Zhou Haoran said, "Director, Red Star TV can wait, but 'Everyone's Art Up' can't. Right now, everyone in the program team is working overtime out of passion and faith. One month is fine, three months is fine, six months is fine, but a year? If this passion isn't matched with appropriate rewards and guarantees, it will cool down very quickly."

Securing shares, dividends, and greater benefits for employees is arguably the most crucial aspect of state-owned enterprise reform today.

Especially those with "skills".

Under the siege of private and foreign enterprises, the talents in state-owned enterprises have been poached by them with high salaries and benefits... Without elite talents, how can state-owned enterprises compete with them?
Then they can only rely on policy advantages to arbitrarily play the monopoly game.

In a fair and just environment, there is no chance of survival.

"Director, if you ask me, the reform of the TV station is no different from the reform of those large state-owned enterprises." Zhou Haoran, who knows the technology-related industries best, used this as an example: "The reason why state-owned enterprises like Haier, Hisense, Skyworth, Lenovo, Gree, ZTE, and Datang are doing better and better under the new market economy is because these companies dare to innovate, have the courage to make decisions, and dare to distribute shares, dividends, and high salaries to their teams. As for those conservative ones, like Founder, Tsinghua Tongfang, Great Wall, and Panda, don't be fooled by the strong policy support and talent infusion from within the system... to be honest, they won't last long, and it will be difficult for them to even survive."

Shan Wendong nodded and sighed, "Haoran, you're right. From my personal perspective, I also know that it would be right to adopt bolder reward programs for excellent programs like 'Everyone's Art'. But now is not the time; the timing is wrong."

"The timing is wrong! The whole country is currently experiencing a wave of reform!"

Zhou Haoran seemed somewhat impulsive.

Shan Wendong said calmly, "The situation across the country does not represent Red Star TV."

"Director, just tell me the truth!"

Zhou Haoran already knew the reason, but he didn't reveal it. Instead, he planned to use it as a starting point to introduce the next more crucial topic.

After a long pause, Shan Wendong slowly said, "We already have definite news about Zhan Yushan: he has been dismissed from his public office and expelled from the Party. It will be officially announced in a few days, and then he will be handed over to the judicial authorities."

Zhan Yushan was a pioneer of the reformists.

He was Shan Wendong's capable assistant.

He was taken down.

All reformists, including Shan Wendong, will be negatively affected, to the point that Shan Wendong has recently had to make compromises and concessions step by step to maintain the stability of Hongxing TV.

"Booth manager..."

Zhou Haoran sighed deeply.

Shan Wendong said calmly, "This was my mistake in judging people poorly, and you should learn from this. Bad people don't always have the word 'bad' written on their faces. More often than not, they disguise themselves as our comrades and lurk among us."

"It really is!"

Zhou Haoran appeared to be learning a lesson, but his indifference and coldness only grew stronger.

"So, the timing now..." Shan Wendong shook his head and assured him, "Haoran, don't be anxious. The reform momentum of Hongxingtai may suffer a short-term setback, but it will remain unchanged in the long run. Let's wait until next year. Once this storm passes, everything will come back!"

"Director, if you ask me, there is a way..."

Zhou Haoran's true colors were revealed.

"Method?"

Shan Wendong was stunned for a moment.

Zhou Haoran said, "Zhan Yushan's incident has put us in a very passive position. To restore the previous situation, we just need to maintain a balance."

"balance?"

Shan Wendong raised an eyebrow.

Zhou Haoran's gaze sharpened. "If something happens to Director Zhan, and if Yi Changping also gets into trouble, the two sides will balance each other out... and the reform process at Hongxing TV will continue as before!" "Yi Changping?" Shan Wendong was taken aback. "Do you know the relationship between Yi Changping and the old director?"

Zhou Haoran laughed and said, "It is precisely because I know this relationship that the balance can be better maintained. Zhan Yushan is the deputy director, and Yi Changping is the director, so their powers are not equal. However, Yi Changping has a nepotistic relationship with the former director, which balances things out."

Shan Wendong fell silent.

It's absurd to discuss this kind of thing with a junior producer on a TV show.

Zhou Haoran didn't think he had the courage to make a decision immediately, so he stood up and said, "Director, think about it first, and then... take a look at the political climate within the station!"

I came out of the director's office.

Zhou Haoran was not idle.

He turned around and went downstairs to find Gu Hao, the executive deputy director of the station.

"Director Gu, I've contacted Antarctic People."

When Zhou Haoran arrived, he was very casual. He sat down on the sofa and crossed his legs.

Life is so dramatic.

He was originally a reformist and had a good relationship with Zhan Yushan.

Now, on the contrary, they have a deep relationship with conservatives like Gu Hao and Song Yongjun. Zhongbo Software even hired former station director Xu Guoyi as an advisor.

Gu Hao took this very seriously, putting down his work. "How is it?"

Zhou Haoran shook his head, looking troubled, and said, "This is not a good matter!"

No matter how difficult it is, we must get it done!

Gu Hao is the executive deputy director, in charge of the operation of Hongxing TV, and he is responsible for implementing any tasks.

Zhou Haoran said, "I went to see Mr. Zhang from Antarctic. He said that media outlets across the country are contacting him, and his office phone is ringing off the hook. Even the People's Daily, CCTV, and Xinhua News Agency have contacted him. This award he received is truly remarkable; it's a gold medal awarded by the United Nations!"

Gu Hao was deeply moved. "Did you see that?"

"what?"

"A trophy, and a certificate!"

"I see it! It's so impressive!" Zhou Haoran exclaimed with admiration. "It really is the United Nations, it's extraordinary!"

Gu Hao said in a deep voice, "The higher authorities have made it clear that outstanding local enterprises must be firmly established in the local area, and the publicity department must follow up and cooperate."

Zhou Haoran thought to himself, "This 'United Nations' title is really impressive."

What a huge influence!
But it's normal.

These days, China hasn't joined the WTO yet; it's still in the transition from ignorance to civilization. The streets are full of people practicing Qigong, including many leaders and intellectual elites from various TV stations.

"Tell me, what are the conditions from the Antarctic people?"

Gu Hao saw through the kid's thoughts early on, and his social connections were far more extensive than Shan Wendong's.

Zhou Haoran said, "President Zhang has already received an interview invitation from Crown TV and they want to snatch him away... The first thing to resolve is the previous dispute between Nanji Ren and the entertainment channel."

Gu Hao nodded. "That's easy. Several channels on Red Star TV can focus on reporting the Antarctic man winning the gold medal at the United Nations in the next few days to eliminate the impact of past negative information."

"That's not enough."

Zhou Haoran shook his head.

"Then continue!"

Gu Hao was prepared, and he had long disliked Yi Changping's behavior.

However, taking down Yi Changping, just like taking down Zhan Yushan, requires external forces; relying solely on the internal forces of Hongxingtai is insufficient.

Zhou Haoran said calmly, "The Antarctic people have been blackmailed by Yi Changping."

"This is a criminal offense."

Gu Hao narrowed his eyes.

Zhou Haoran nodded. "It's very serious. It's because President Zhang refused the extortion that he became enraged and fabricated slanderous news in Consumer Frontier."

"Is there any evidence?"

Gu Hao's heart stirred slightly. He actually wanted to see what kind of methods this kid could come up with.

"Have!"

Zhou Haoran spoke with great force.

"What evidence?"

Gu Hao secretly looked forward to it.

Zhou Haoran said, "The Antarctic people can provide written proof, and even at the legal level, there are testimonies."

“I’m afraid…” Gu Hao shook his head slightly, “that’s not enough.”

Zhou Haoran said calmly, "There's more. To extort money from a large company like Nanji Ren, you have to rely on the sales department of the entertainment channel. However, none of the people in the sales department were willing to cooperate with him in these illegal activities. So, he fired everyone, including the sales director Chang Lesheng. They can testify to that!"
