Chapter 135 - Extreme Validation from Beijing University’s Professor! (1/2)

“7.8%?”

“Holy sh*t! It broke 7?”

“This is too amazing!”

“Brother Hu! Are you bluffing us!?”

“That’s right; I thought we were done for when you came in with your face sullen!”

Everyone in the office was in jubilation. Xiao Lu threw all the doc.u.ments in her hands into the air. She was unable to contain her joy and kept screaming!

Zhang Ye was also scared by Hu Fei’s earlier behaviour. When he knew the real rating, he gave a sigh of relief. He knew it! This was the well known “Lecture Room”, and he had presented an exact reproduction of Yi Zhongtian’s version of the show. How would it then receive a rating of less than 1%? It was all because of Hu Fei’s antics that scared them. Who would have expected Brother Hu to have such a side to him? But with some thought, Hu Fei was also too excited, so he decided to play a trick on them!

Dafei said, “Teacher Zhang, congratulations.”

Xiao Lu had come back to her senses now, “Right, right. Teacher Zhang, in the future we have to add another t.i.tle to your introduction: famous program host!”

“Seven point something percent… That is at least 2nd place in our Arts Channel’s more than 20 years of program listings. Even if we were to include all of the programs that were ever shown from this television station, this would definitely be in the top 15 to 20 places. This is really too awesome!” Hou Ge said with amazement.

Zhang Ye quickly replied, “It’s all because of Brother Hu’s good leaders.h.i.+p. It’s everyone’s credit and also our team’s contributions. I am not capable of all that by myself.”

Hu Fei laughed and pointed at him, “Don’t act all humble!”

Xiao Lu giggled, “Leader, are we getting a treat tonight?”

“Treat? Of course there will be a treat!” Hu Fei announced, “During tonight’s celebration feast, everyone has to be present!”

“Oh, that’s great!” Xiao Lu cheered, “I want to have big prawns!”

Little Chenchen also raised her head and said, “I want to eat hairy crabs.”

Zhang Ye smacked her head, “You want a part in everything. Hur Hur.”

Chenchen threw her tantrum and said, “Zhang Ye, you did not wash your hands! Don’t touch my head.”

Everyone was amused by the little one.

After that, Hu Fei cautioned, “Teacher Zhang, Sunday’s program recording is scheduled after this at 5 P.M. Please get ready your script…. Oh, right. I forgot that you don’t need those. Hur Hur. Then maybe you can do some conceptualization for the second episode, ‘The Real Cao Cao’. The others can go and freshen up, but don’t let it drag back your work. After the celebrations, get back to work in the afternoon. Make the most of the weekend. Let’s go towards a rating of 8%! We will bring ‘Lecture Room’ to the top of the Arts Channel with the highest ratings! We will show those who doubt us what we can do! Is everyone confident?”

“We are!”

“We are confident!’

“That’s for sure!”

“Haha. With Teacher Zhang Ye, who can scare us!”

Everyone was giving their opinions and thoughts. They were full of fighting spirit!

When they first arrived at the station, not many people expected things from the motley crew of those who dabbled in TV drama and journalism. Even for the program itself, many of those from other programs were not optimistic about it. Historical segment? Scientific segment? They felt that there was no market for this. Those who had talked behind Hu Fei’s back were now proven wrong by their team’s vision and working ability!

A rating of 7.8%!

Who would now dare to gossip about them anymore?

Those who did were probably now still in a state of shock!

Afternoon.

Zhang Ye signalled from his seat, “Chenchen, come over.”

Chenchen came over from Dafei’s side with a cellphone. She was playing with it and then looked up and asked, “What?”

“Don’t make trouble at Uncle Dafei’s side. Come over here. Don’t be further than two meters from me.” Zhang Ye insisted that she come over. This child was different from other children; she wasn’t so straightforward to handle. Zhang Ye thought that it would be better if she was in his sight. Otherwise, if something were to happen, he couldn’t possibly answer to Rao Aimin. “I will give you half my seat; you can play here. If you want to do something else, tell me. If you need the toilet, ask Sister Xiao Lu to bring you.”

Chenchen rolled her eyes, “I’m not unable to take care of myself.”

Zhang Ye gave half his seat and sat her down. He went online to check on the comments. This was part of his job. He would take in suggestions from everyone.

Upon looking, he saw the attention that he had gathered!

“Zhang Ye went to the TV station?”

“D*mn, why did this guy become a lecturer?”

“Yeah, does he have the qualifications? Isn’t he just a university graduate? And he’s a broadcast major graduate, too, right? This doesn’t match up! He’s not a learner of history!”

“One look and I know that you all have not watched ‘Lecture Room’!”

“You watched it? How was it? It must have been a mess, right?”

“A mess, my a*s! You don’t even know how good it was to watch it!

“Yes, yes. My dad dragged me to watch it. It was so intriguing to watch!”

“This Zhang Ye spoke too well. It seems like you guys are saying he is very famous? I have really never heard of him. I need to check the internet. Otherwise, I will be behind the times.”

“This talk about the Three Kingdoms is really too G.o.dly!”

“Is that so? Why do I feel that it is just normal?”

Everyone had all kinds of opinions, but the number of those who praised it was in the majority.
