Tan Wenci hung up the phone after giving his instructions. At the same time, Tan Mo was also calling the technology department staff who was on duty.
The call went through and Tan Mo stated her name and purpose.
The other party searched quickly and replied, “There are already 80 million views!”
This was the first time he had seen the results after the broadcast. He was shocked.
“It’s only nine o’clock now. It’s only been broadcast for an hour, and there’s already such a number of views,” the tech said in surprise.
Thank goodness Tan Mo had called up to check. Otherwise, she would not have known that tonight’s results were better than yesterday’s! Even after all that great effort in promoting it!
This meant that word of mouth had already spread!
The tech had decided to keep a close eye on it and record it properly.
“What about ‘Nine Heavens’?” Tan Mo asked again.
She had put the phone on speaker for everyone to hear, so she wouldn’t need to repeat it after hanging up the phone.
“Let me take a look.” The tech brought up the backstage data of ‘Nine Heavens’ again.
“…” the tech was a little speechless when he saw the results. “It’s also been broadcasting for an hour, but ‘Nine Heavens’ now has 20 million views.”
It had increased by 10 million compared to last night. And this was after receiving the same promotion as Broken Continent yesterday.
Guo Qingchen couldn’t find an excuse this time.
At the same time, Xu Dashi wasn’t idle either.
Because Broken Continent’s results were unexpectedly good.
The advertising sponsors that did not pay attention to ‘Broken Continent’ previously all started to call up overnight.
Under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t be in such a hurry.
They had to observe for a few days to make sure that ‘Broken Continent’s’ results were stable before they talked about the advertisements.
However, ‘Broken Continent’ had very few episodes. There were only 12 episodes in total.
And this number would only decrease with each broadcast.
If they don’t talk about it quickly, ‘Broken Continent’ would’ve finished broadcasting.
Besides, these talks were usually done before the broadcast.
No one could be sure that the results of the dramas would be good.
Before the show was broadcasted, everyone was optimistic and bought all kinds of advertising spots. However, there were quite many cases where the dramas failed to do well after the broadcast.
Take ‘Nine Heavens’ case for example.
Back then, when the advertisements slots were launched, it was really popular amongst these brands.
Because there weren’t enough spots, and they couldn’t keep increasing the number of advertisements spots, they could only determine through bidding.
The brands that failed in the bidding were even regretful at that time.
And the brands that succeeded in the bidding were full of pride.
Everyone was in the same industry, so there were always some places that their paths would cross.
When they met those brands that succeeded in the bidding, some of them even gloated about it.
But now?
Those brands that had successfully bid and spent all their money were all regretting their decisions.
And those brands that had failed to bid now felt a sense of relief that they had dodged a disaster.
Fortunately, they hadn’t succeeded!
Look at those that had succeeded, what a loss they had suffered!
Right now, the netizens didn’t even care about ‘Nine Heavens’.
Even video editing channels don’t even bother making clips on it.
There weren’t any clips of ‘Nine Heavens’ on the timelines. It was all clips of ‘Broken Continent’.
Only those bloggers who often criticized and ridiculed shows had work to do.
One by one, they started ridiculing ‘Nine Heavens’.
They had uploaded their reviews on the first two episodes of “Nine Heavens.” at midnight yesterday.
Today, they could probably post another on new episodes of ‘Nine Heavens’.
The brands that successfully bid for ‘Nine Heavens’ had already contacted Kefeng Films overnight via the company’s lawyer to cease their advertising.
The contracts for the brand investments were very detailed.
If the series did not achieve a certain level of success, the brand had the right to withdraw the advertisement investments.
There were also brands that had failed in the bid, as well as brands that were currently on the official website, that had contacted the marketing department overnight. There were also brands that had contacted Xu Dashi directly.
They all wanted to buy the advertising spots for ‘Broken Continent’.
There were still ten episodes left. There was still time!
Xu Dashi and the people from the marketing department felt their hands go soft from the endless incoming calls.
All of the marketing department members were grinning from ear to ear.
Even though Xu Dashi was so busy, he still took the time to call Tan Mo.
“Tan Mo, we’ll have a meeting with some brands to discuss the addition of advertisements for ‘Broken Continent tomorrow,’” Xu Dashi said. “Do you and Director Tan want to come by and take a look?”
Tan Mo knew they were not professionals in such matters.
Moreover, they did not have any interactions with these brands, nor did they have any disagreements. At the very least, they would not refuse to cooperate just because they did not like a particular brand.
Xu Dashi asked them to come over for…
Tan Mo thought for a moment and said, “Mr. Xu, are you asking us to go over to show our exuberance in front of the marketing department?”
At the last meeting, the people in the marketing department had looked down on them.
Was Xu Dashi trying to let them get back at the marketing department?
Xu Dashi smiled with his eyes narrowed. This lady boss may be young, but she’s quick-witted.
“I do have that intention,” Xu Dashi admitted generously. “To be honest, I was very angry with their attitude previously. Moreover, this also shows that they are lacking in judgment and don’t have an accurate grasp of the market.”
“Their years of experience can be their advantage, but it also made them have the bad habit of being blindly arrogant,” Xu Dashi said, “I also hope that I can take this opportunity to teach them a lesson and make them stop being so self-righteous.”
“If you and Director Tan are willing to come over, feel free to embarrass them,” Xu Dashi said.
“Mr. Xu, you are a very kind boss.” Tan Mo chuckled. “This sort of arrogant employee has a problem with their work capabilities. Are you still keeping them for the New Year?”
Xu Dashi was stunned for a moment, then he heard Tan Mo say, “Of course, I have no intention of interfering with your company’s decision.”
Although she was Wei Zhiqian’s fiancée, she didn’t have any intention of telling Wei Feng and its subsidiary companies what to do.
She was just feeling a little emotional just now.
Xu Dashi smiled bitterly, he said, “I know. These people are very capable at work and have very unique individual abilities. For example, Xu Xiangqian, who was in charge of attracting business, had connections and customer resources that many companies coveted. Many of them had contacted him to try to poach him. Even if his other abilities weren’t good, those companies were willing to support him just because of the resources he had. His other abilities were indeed not bad. It was just that over time, he had become a little arrogant. He just needs someone to give him a push.”
Tan Mo smiled and said, “The people working under you are very lucky.”
“…” Xu Dashi was a little uncertain after hearing Tan Mo’s words. “Are you seriously praising me?”
Or are you being sarcastic?
Tan Mo: “…”
“I am seriously praising you.” The corner of Tan Mo’s mouth twitched. What kind of image did she have with Xu Dashi?
“Thank you for the compliment.” Xu Dashi also felt strange.
Tan Mo was so young, but why was he afraid of this little girl?
