My documentary really doesn't want high ratings

"Tea contains philosophy, and the truth of life can be learned by drinking it carefully. The most important thing in it is the aftertaste. Astringency is essential, but the aftertaste is the reason why many tea lovers like to drink tea."

"Isn't it because of air bubbles and water swelling?"

Bao Yu blurted out.

Zhou Huan: ...

Xu Wen gave a thumbs up silently.

My role model!

"I had expected the word-of-mouth reputation of "A Bite of the Tongue", but it was completely beyond my expectations. In general, we can only see if the next 4 episodes can save the ratings."

"But predictably, this time the attempt failed."

Zhou Huan looked at Bao Yu.

Bao Yu sighed.

"When "Food on the Bite of the Tongue" is finished, you and I will fulfill the agreement. You go to the TV series to report. I promise you that you can shoot the TV series you want, but first, give me "Love on the Roof 2" "The Humble Author's Code Words" 2 and 3 have been filmed."

Bao Yu nodded, stood up and left dejectedly.

With Bao Yu's departure, only Xu Wen and Zhou Huan were left in the office.

Xu Wen looked at Zhou Huan with a calm face.

"Director, what happened to the whole thing? Why did Bao Yu go to the TV series again? Since he was going to the TV series, why did he come to our recording team before? And let him shoot "Bite of the Tongue"?"

"Don't worry, things have come to this point, if I don't explain it clearly to you, readers will scold me."

Zhou Huan said something out loud.

Xu Wen stopped talking and waited for Zhou Huan to speak.

"Xu Wen, you are an excellent director. You have your own ideas. You have made many excellent works. You think you are very successful. This is a fact, and you are viewed from the perspective of an outsider."

"Then now, think about it differently. From my point of view, a subordinate who is so good and capable, what should I do immediately."

Xu Wen looked at Zhou Huan.

Zhou Huan looked at Xu Wen.

"Please speak?"

"Ah, are you asking me? I'm still waiting for you to go on."

Xu Wen was stunned for a moment and smiled.

Zhou Huan: ...

Xu Wen thought about it.

"If there is such a subordinate, first of all, I will give him a promotion and a salary increase, so that he can reach the pinnacle of his life. In addition, he will not have to sit on shift, double the overtime pay, provide him with a driver, let him be the director, and make up for his meals in the future. Times, by the way, the cafeteria also took the opportunity to renovate, the food..."

"..."

Zhou Huan's face was covered with black lines.

I can't talk today.

"Be serious!"

"First of all, it must be a promotion and salary increase, and secondly... I will be afraid that he will quit!"

Xu Wen said something seriously.

Zhou Huan nodded.

"That's right, the more successful you are, the happier I will be. As a result, the next time I approve your budget, the more I will invest in your project, and at the same time, I will be more worried about your job-hopping."

"The TV station is not a company. It can't give you shares. You have to follow the rules for promotion. The only thing you can do is raise your salary, but others can raise your salary, or even give you more."

"At this time, as a leader, I need to think about it, what if! If you change jobs, what should I do?"

Hearing this, Xu Wen understood it.

"So you need someone who can take over after I change jobs, so as not to waste these IPs?"

"Correct!"

Zhou Huan nodded.

"At the beginning I was looking for Hutong, but it didn't work. The two of you have completely different styles. The second is Bao Yu. He is good at making sequels, so I want him to become Xu Wen 2.0, not to replace you, you can continue to shoot you If you want it, the stage will support you as always.”

"And he will be your shadow. If you don't leave, he will never make any moves. Just film his TV series, but if you change jobs that day, you have to give me a chance to react, right? "Bite of the Tongue", "A String of Life", "Jiefang West" and so many good IPs cannot be wasted."

Xu Wen suddenly realized.

Simply put, it is "alternative Xu Wen development plan."

"But Bao Yu said he didn't want to make a sequel?"

Xu Wen was taken aback.

Zhou Huan smiled.

"Yes, so I made a bet with him. If I can make a good spin-off of "Bite of the Tongue", I can let him make whatever he wants. Otherwise, I will make three TV series sequels first."

"If he can really make a spin-off film of "Bite of the Tongue", then the candidate for Xu Wen 2.0 will be found. When you change jobs one day, I will transfer him to the documentary team. On the contrary, it is not good to have another famous director in the TV series. Can't."

Xu Wen nodded.

The twists and turns are so complicated!

"You are a talented general who has made many excellent documentaries, but talents like you are very popular no matter where they go, and you have to allow us to have an alternative plan."

"If you don't shoot "Life 2", "Bite of the Tongue 2" and "Jiefang West 2", I guess you won't shoot "Aerial Photography 2". The station can allow you to charge forward, but you also have to understand the alternatives made by the station. 2.0."

Zhou Huan looked at Xu Wen.

Xu Wen nodded.

From Zhou Huan's point of view, he did the right thing.

It is necessary not only to absorb talents, but also to stabilize talents, and to do a good job of backup after the loss of talents.

At this time Xu Wen suddenly thought of something.

"Hey? Director, now that the reputation of "A Bite of the Tongue" has collapsed, doesn't that mean that Bao Yu is not suitable to take over my class? Then what should I do?"

"So Xu Wen's development plan 3 has already started."

Zhou Huan looked at Xu Wen mysteriously.

Xu Wen was taken aback.

"Who?"

"Teaching system!"

Zhou Huan said after taking a sip of tea.

Xu Wen's mouth suddenly formed an "o" shape!

Human beings!

Introduced Bao Yu with one hand and started teaching with one hand.

Logically speaking, for a TV station, everyone else has already chosen the instructor, so how could it be possible for Wang Tian and Rourou to be vacant all the time.

Feelings are waiting for Xu Wen.

Xu Wen looked at Zhou Huan resentfully.

"Director, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, you are not allowed to become a master! I'm going to report you!"

"Xu Wen, put yourself in the shoes and think about it. The stage is willing to spend money for you. You have to understand me. Okay, that's the way it is. What's your problem?"

Zhou Huan looked at Xu Wen.

Xu Wen thought about it.

"I do have a question."

"Tell me."

Zhou Huan became interested.

"Director, I think the promotion and salary increase, the appointment of a special driver, the improvement of the food in the cafeteria and the increase in overtime pay..."

"roll."

"..."

Xu Wen left the director's office with strides, and when he reached the door, he stopped and looked at Zhou Huan.

"Director, if you want to train my successor, why did you let him shoot "Bite of the Tongue" in the first place? Wouldn't it be better to shoot "Life" or "Jiefang West"?"

This is a question that Xu Wen can't figure out.

It would be too bold to shoot "Bite of the Tongue" right away.

Zhou Huan smiled. From Xu Wen's perspective, it seemed that everyone could see the conspiracy hidden in Zhou Huan's smile.

"Who said "A Bite of the Tongue" is "A Bite of the Tongue 2"? There are too many people with the same name and surname."

"But didn't everyone say that "A Bite of the Tongue" is a derivative documentary of "A Bite of China"?"

"I didn't say that."

Zhou Huan rolled his eyes in a very naughty manner.

Xu Wen: ...

This is the old rascal.

When we returned to the office, everyone was celebrating the fact that "Aerial Photography of Huaguo" won the first place in the ratings.

As soon as he saw Xu Wen, he handed over a bill for milk tea.

Xu Wen was very depressed.

What, this is.

Director's Office.

Zhou Huan was still cooking tea, following Xu Wen and Bao Yu's departure.

Liu Ke rushed in one step at a time.

"Director, have the two of them left?"

"Ah."

Zhou Huan nodded.

Liu Ke took a deep breath.

"At first, I thought it was a win-win situation, but I didn't expect Bao Yu to be so disappointing that even a sequel would be lost."

"It's not Bao Yu's fault. Xu Wen's personal style is too uncertain. "A String of Life", "Bite of the Tongue", "Liberation West" and now "Aerial Photography of Huaguo" have different feelings and styles. Bao There is no way for Yu not to catch it."

Zhou Huan said slowly.

Liu Ke nodded, and suddenly thought of something again.

"Director, I don't know if I should say something or not."

"Then stop talking."

"You say that, so I want to talk about it. I don't think there is any need to be so anxious to find Xu Wen's successor. He has only risen for a few years, and his foundation is not stable. He won't leave in a hurry."

Liu Ke said very solemnly.

Hearing this, Zhou Huan stopped what he was doing and looked at Liu Ke.

"You really think I'll let Xu Wen be a director for the rest of your life?"

"Huh? What does that mean?"

Now it was Liu Ke's turn to be a little confused.

Zhou Huan got up and came to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the scenery outside the window and said.

"Xu Wen is a good material for a director, but I want to know whether there is a material to lead the overall situation hidden under this embryo."

Zhou Huan's light words set off a storm in Liu Ke's heart.
