Xu Dashi subconsciously looked over at Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo.
Since they were engaged, they would be wearing rings.
As expected, both of them had a ring on the middle finger of their left hands.
It was a rose gold color and had no jewelry on it. It was a classic design by a particular brand and was very low-key.
“Mr. Yan is currently entertaining the advertisers,” Xu Dashi explained, “Because there are only ten episodes of ‘Broken Continent’ left, time is very tight. The advertisers are also a little anxious, so they hurried down today in fear that ‘Broken Continent’ will finish broadcasting if they do not act faster.”
Wei Zhiqian scoffed, “What were they doing earlier?”
Xu Dashi did not expect Wei Zhiqian to come.
He had just wanted to use the chance to remind his arrogant colleagues.
But now that Wei Zhiqian had come, Xu Dashi felt that those people were in danger.
“Those colleagues from last time are all in the conference room now. They’ve liaised with those advertisers last night and drafted a summary and report which they will tell Director Tan in a bit. Director Tan can look through the advertisers they have filtered,” said Xu Dashi.
“The exclusive title rights are still reserved for Tanyue. It means that after the theme song is completed, the slot for the advertisement that will be played before the show begins will only belong to Tanyue,” Xu Dashi said, “No other brands would be able to take up that slot. Also, the slot for the ‘on the previous episode’ of the show. These are exclusively reserved for Tanyue.”
These two slots were the best advertisement slot in the entire drama.
Non-members who wanted to watch the show would have to watch the 120-second advertisement.
As no other brands, aside from Tanyue, had come to buy the advertising slots, Kefeng Films put on the advertisement for its collaborating partner brand.
Not every drama had endless sponsors rushing for its slots.
For some dramas that weren’t very popular, non-members would watch the advertisements from Kefeng Films’ collaborating partner brands.
The IT department created a program that would randomly pick from Kefeng Films’ advertising database when it was time to play an advertisement.
Thus, the brands of the ads played were different each time.
Since the members didn’t need to watch the ads, they could skip the opening and ending songs.
Hence, the important sponsoring brand’s ads were placed right after the opening song and before the show begins.
In this way, the users could see the ads unless they manually pulled the progress bar to skip them.
Other than this prime advertising slot, there was also an audio advertisement for Tanyue. Before the ‘On the Previous Episode’ plays, there would be a snippet that goes “Tanyue Homeware reminds you that on the previous episode…”. As the only sponsor of ‘Broken Continent’ so far, Tanyue was entitled to such good treatment. Regardless if more brands would join after today.
Because Tanyue was an investor and had spent a lot of money to sponsor the film, Tanyue’s advertising position would never be taken away by other brands.
“As for the other brands, the colleagues in the marketing department also did their research and selected those that had no competitive relationship with Tanyue,” Xu Dashi said as they entered the elevator, “However, they aren’t so clear about the personal relationships between the companies, so it’s better for the two of you to confirm it.”
Tan Jinqi raised his eyebrows high.
Xu Dashi felt embarrassed by Tan Jinqi’s expression.
Although Tan Jinqi didn’t say anything, his expression said it all.
The people in the marketing department were very meticulous when it came to details.
However, it was the complete opposite compared to the attitude during the previous meeting,
It was ironic.
Even Xu Dashi felt it was ironic, let alone Tan Jinqi and Tan Mo who were the parties involved.
Xu Dashi was so embarrassed by Tan Jinqi’s raised eyebrows that his face turned red.
When he noticed Wei Zhiqian’s indifferent glance, Xu Dashi’s heart pounded.
No one spoke in the elevator, making the atmosphere very tense.
Xu Dashi could only hear his nervous heartbeat.
He didn’t dare to speak anymore.
Finally, when the elevator reached the floor and the door opened, he hurriedly led the three people to the conference room.
They were greeted by familiar faces when they stepped into the room. They had seen each other before.
However, no one in the conference room had expected Wei Zhiqian to come as well. They were all shocked.
They all greeted Wei Zhiqian.
Wei Zhiqian acted as if he had not heard them and ignored them.
Xu Dashi wanted to give the main seat of the conference room to Wei Zhiqian.
“There’s no need,” Wei Zhiqian said calmly. “I’m just here to listen. I won’t make any decisions.”
Wei Zhiqian paused for a moment and said, “It’s to prevent Momo and Jinqi from being looked down upon by others.”
Everyone: “…”
The President wasn’t implying something about them, was he?
It couldn’t be, right?
But…
Momo and Jinqi?
The President was addressing them so intimately… was his relationship with Tan Mo and Tan Jinqi so good?
It couldn’t be that Tan Mo and Tan Jinqi have already complained to the President, right?
But they were just doing their job. They didn’t mean to deliberately make things difficult for them!
So…
How good was their relationship?
Would he make things difficult for them because of Tan Mo and Tan Jinqi?
Tan Jinqi sat on Xu Dashi’s left side, and Tan Mo was next to him.
Wei Zhiqian sat next to Tan Mo.
“Cough!” Xu Dashi cleared his throat to remind the managers.
Manager Xu was seated next to Xu Dashi couldn’t avoid taking the hint.
Left with no choice, he had to bite the bullet and speak first. “Director Tan, Tan Mo, My attitude was very inappropriate during the last meeting. I apologize.”
Manager Wang followed up, “I was wrong. Broken Continent’s results were much better than ‘Nine Heavens’. This also meant that the results of the market evaluation were not reliable. Since it was an evaluation, it wasn’t accurate. But I’ve been in the industry for so many years, but I was wrong when I evaluated the drama.”
“This also sounded a warning bell for me. I can’t blindly believe in the evaluation results.” Manager Wang could put down his face and put on a sincere expression, “When I think back, not everything can be based on these results. Moreover, in the past, there wasn’t such an advanced method of calculating statistics as there is now. It was more dependent on my judgment. At that time, when faced with some of the evaluation results, I would also raise some objections. I would even go to my boss to refute it. But I didn’t expect that after so many years, I would become the kind of person I didn’t like before.”
Tan Jinqi: “…”
Tan Mo: “…”
They were skeptical about what Manager Wang said. Manager Wang could also make things up.
Manager Liang’s heart felt as if it was in boiling water.
Wei Zhiqian was watching. How should she apologize to pass this trial?
“Director Tan, Tan Mo… Last time, my attitude wasn’t good because I was biased towards experienced directors and popular actors and made a big mistake,” Manager Liang said.
Tan Mo’s gaze was colder than before.
In fact, for Manager Xu and Manager Wang, Tan Mo only felt that they were a little snobbish. They wouldn’t even glance at you if you don’t do well..
