Chapter 161 A Powerful Entertaining Experience in Television Variety Shows

"This one……"

Jiang Mingde's expectations momentarily embarrassed Wang Letian.

"That's not what I meant," he hurriedly explained. "Actually... Yuting Culture said they're willing to pay any amount of money as long as they can sabotage Fanfu Culture's appearance on the Spring Festival Gala! I think money is a minor issue; the key is not to let Fang Xinhai get too cocky. What do you think?"

Jiang Mingde was initially disappointed, but his eyes lit up when he heard the word "money".

“You’re right!” He nodded solemnly. “Tell Yuting Culture that I’ll help them with the arrangements. This matter needs to be taken care of!”

"Understood!"

Soon after, a bank card was transferred from Zhuo Tao to Wang Letian. After Wang Letian "inspected" it, it became another bank card and was then transferred to Jiang Mingde.

All three were satisfied, and a grand drama unfolded during a high-level meeting at CTV.

At the meeting, Jiang Mingde directly attacked the culture of overthrowing, making a big fuss about Lin Qianyu's participation being completely against the rules, and vehemently refusing to agree.

Fang Xinhai argued his case forcefully, highlighting the seriousness of the situation, but he couldn't overcome the fact that this matter was indeed unprecedented.

"If everyone does this, what will become of the rules?" Jiang Mingde said righteously and sternly. "If this continues, what will become of our CTV?"

"The cultural upheaval has contributed to CCTV!" Fang Xinhai emphasized. "Without him, there would be no 'Ancient Chinese Poetry Competition'! Vice Director Jiang must know how much importance the higher-ups placed on this program, right? After its successful premiere, the Ministry of Culture even called to commend it..."

“I admit that the culture of overturning traditions has contributed to the station. But does contributing mean we can do whatever we want? Many people at the station have made contributions, does that mean they can all break the rules? If this precedent is set, the consequences will be disastrous!”

"It's just inserting a program, a song, why is Vice Director Jiang making such a big deal out of it?"

"It's not that I'm making a mountain out of a molehill, but the rules can't be broken! They've made contributions, and we can express our gratitude in other ways, but rules are rules, and we absolutely cannot break them!"

Fang Xinhai was also angered by what he was being said and couldn't help but retort, "Weren't the three programs from Yuting Culture also added at the last minute? If Fanfu Culture can't perform, then Yuting Culture can't perform either!"

The two sides were locked in a dispute, which gave the station director a huge headache. After a long period of coordination between the two sides, he decided to punish both sides equally. The plan for Fanfu Culture to appear on the Spring Festival Gala was rejected, and Yuting Culture was also implicated, with all three of its programs being canceled!

When the news reached Wang Ke, he frowned slightly, but then smiled when he heard that Yuting Culture's program had also been canceled.

"That idiot Zhuo Tao, he's killing a thousand enemies while losing three thousand of his own!"

"If they keep doing this, how can Yuting Culture not go bankrupt?"

Lin Qianyu was furious: "That Zhuo Tao is a real scoundrel! We can't just let this go."

Wang Ke laughed and said, "Forget it. Secretary Ji said that if it doesn't work out this year, there's always next year. Fangtai will definitely try to get more spots for us then. Also, Fangtai said that although we can't be on the show this year, we can be guests, and they'll even arrange for us to have seats in the front row."

"That's more like it," Lin Qianyu said. "It'll infuriate that bastard Zhuo Tao!"

When the news reached Zhuo Tao, he was completely stunned.

WTF! ?

Our program was also canceled?

This……

What the hell is this all about?!

He hurriedly said to Wang Letian, "Director Wang, you can't do this! I want to promote cultural upheaval, not to undermine ourselves! How can you cancel our program as well?"

“There’s nothing we can do,” Wang Letian said. “Fang Xinhai insisted, and Jiangtai has done his best. This is the station director’s decision, and there’s nothing anyone can do about it.”

"But...but what kind of mess is this?" Zhuo Tao was furious. "We spent so much money on this, and the show is canceled? It's like I've spent money to sabotage myself!"

"President Zhuo!" Wang Letian was displeased. "You spent money to sabotage the project of getting Fanfu Culture on the Spring Festival Gala, right? I'm asking you, wasn't it sabotaged? What else do you have to say?"

"No..." Zhuo Tao was so angry that he didn't know what to say.

"Alright, that's enough about this!" Wang Letian's tone became increasingly stern. "Stop bringing up the little money you took! Because of you, Jiang Tai has completely offended Fang Xinhai. Can't you figure out which is more important?"

"I……"

"Alright, if it doesn't work this year, there's always next year! Jiangtai will definitely fight for a few more spots for you then! President Zhuo, you can't be short-sighted; you have to look to the future! Jiangtai is young and energetic; he'll become the most powerful deputy director sooner or later. With him protecting you, won't your Yuting Culture be able to do whatever it wants at CTV? That's settled then!"

After hanging up the phone, Zhuo Tao couldn't hold back any longer and slammed the phone to the ground.

The screen is completely shattered, utterly destroyed.

"Bastards, they're all bastards!"

"I spent so much money, and you're here to mess with me? Am I a masochist?"

"I'm going to die a horrible death from being wronged!"

Amidst the screams, Zhuo Tao's vision went black, and he collapsed to the ground, startling his assistant and others who immediately called an ambulance.

Time flies by amidst joy and sorrow.

In the month leading up to the Spring Festival Gala, "The Ancient Chinese Poetry Competition" aired four episodes, each with extremely high viewership ratings, and the program achieved great success.

This solidified Fang Xinhai's position at CCTV and brought Fanfu Culture into the view of major satellite TV stations.

Many veteran television professionals, while acknowledging the excellence of "The Voice of China," considered it merely a stroke of genius born from a momentary burst of inspiration. However, the success of "The Classical Chinese Poetry Competition" made them realize that there is genuine substance to cultural reinterpretation!

In no time, countless television stations dispatched their best personnel to contact Fanfu Culture and negotiate business.

Luo Jun was busy again. At Wang Ke's suggestion, he had to set up another variety show department specifically to deal with these TV stations.

Collaboration is possible, but for now it can only be limited to allowing singers under Fanfu Culture to participate in various variety shows on these TV stations.

As for the joint production of variety shows, that depends on future plans. Currently, Fanfu Culture is focused on producing two programs: "Ancient Chinese Poetry Competition" and "The Singer's Challenge," so we have no time for other projects. We ask for your understanding.

What can the TV stations say?

And what else would you dare to say?

Naturally, they nodded with smiles, expressing their understanding and looking forward to future cooperation.

From then on, Flip Culture can be said to have kicked open the doors of major TV stations and forcefully entered the TV variety show circle!
