Chapter 733: As Expected

Manager Wu laughed. “Isn’t it a redundant move for Kefeng Films to spend its own money to change its own viewership data? Can’t we just change it directly?”
“That won’t do.” No matter what Manager Wu said, Manager Niu refused.
Manager Wu: “…”
The same went for the employee just now. Manager Wu had tried all sorts of ways to negotiate with them, but they refused to budge.
Why was the entire Technology Department filled with this kind of bullheadedness? Why are they so stubborn and rigid?
“Our department will not accept anything with any necessary procedures missed out,” Manager Niu said, “Manager Wu, if you’re really in a hurry, why don’t you discuss it with Director Guo first? If the discussion is finalized, you can get Director Guo to approach Mr. Xu or Mr. Yan to discuss in advance as well. Then you can submit the application tomorrow and get it signed immediately, so you can get the viewership data changed as soon as possible,” said Manager Niu.
Manager Wu still didn’t give up. “Manager Niu…”
“Manager Wu, let’s leave it at that. We won’t be able to reach an agreement even if we continue talking. I really can’t make an exception,” said Manager Niu awkwardly, “Don’t make things difficult for me. Alternatively, you can go to Mr. Xu or Mr. Yan. If they give the confirmation that there wouldn’t be any problem if we don’t go according to the procedures, then I’ll immediately ask my colleagues on duty to change it for you.”
Manager Wu: “…”
It was evident that negotiations wouldn’t work out with Manager Niu, so Manager Wu could only end the call.
However, Manager Wu didn’t contact Guo Qingchen for a discussion as Manager Niu had suggested.
The matter hadn’t been settled. As long as there was still a way, he wouldn’t go to Guo Qingchen.
Manager Wu contacted Xu Dashi instead.
“Mr. Xu, I’m sorry to bother you at this time,” Manager Wu said.
“What is it?” Xu Dashi asked.
Manager Wu repeated Guo Qingchen’s intention.
Xu Dashi did not ask him to follow the procedure immediately. Instead, he said, “That’s fine. But to be fair, whatever viewership data that ‘Nine Heavens’ alters, ‘Broken Continent’ shall get the same amount of views changed.”
Manager Wu was stunned, he immediately said, “Mr. Xu, we can’t calculate it like that…”. If ‘Broken Continent’ is afraid of being surpassed, they can get the analytics altered on their own! Why must they also get the same changes as ‘Nine Heavens’ receives? This… This isn’t Director Guo’s intention.”
“Wasn’t Director Guo’s original intentions of this alteration because the viewership data wasn’t doing well and that he couldn’t be ridiculed by others? That has nothing to do with how much viewership ‘Broken Continent’ has,” Xu Dashi said indifferently.
How could it have nothing to do with it? Guo Qingchen’s intention was to alter the views to completely surpass that of ‘Broken Continent’.
However, Manager Wu couldn’t tell Xu Dashi this frankly.
“Didn’t Tan Mo reach an agreement with Director Guo during the meeting before the broadcast?” Xu Dashi said.
“What agreement?” How could he not remember such a thing?
Manager Wu was full of questions.
“Didn’t the two of them agree to have a competition to see which show does better?” Xu Dashi raised his eyebrows and asked, “How can they compete if ‘Nine Heavens’ changes the broadcast analytics, but ‘Broken Continent’ doesn’t? Since it’s a competition, naturally it has to be done fairly. Either no one changes their statistics, or everyone gets theirs changed.”
“But the promotion levels of the two shows are different,” Manager Wu said immediately.
“Even if the promotion levels are the same, do you think that ‘Nine Heavens’ could achieve the same results as ‘Broken Continent’? Did you really think that the benefit of free membership from just watching the show could pull the gap between the two dramas to such a large extent?” Xu Dashi laughed.
He was not worried that ‘Nine Heavens’ would fail.
Because they had already earned back their money for ‘Nine Heavens’ from the business deals that Gao Qiongyu and Li Hanfei had attracted.
If it didn’t do well, it would be Guo Qingchen’s problem. It had nothing to do with him.
Besides, with the results from ‘Broken Continent’, they could easily earn back any losses even if ‘Nine Heavens’ really failed terribly.
He estimated that he could recoup the losses back in one day.
With such excellent results from ‘Broken Continent’, why would he care about “Nine Heavens”?
They invested a lot in ‘Broken Continent’?
But he earned more!
Moreover, Tan Jinqi had used so many connections to try to reduce the cost.
In fact, if they were to calculate and estimate the regular expenses, it would have been at least two billion.
It could be said that Tan Jinqi saved them 1.3 billion!
He won a beautiful battle and helped to boost Kefeng Films’ reputation.
Xu Dashi had been paying attention to the comments of the netizens tonight.
The netizens were not only praising the drama and the songs.
They were probably tired of praising the drama and were trying hard to find something new to praise. So they decided to set their targets on Kefeng Films.
They started praising Kefeng Films for putting their heart into the dramas they produce and saving the domestic movie and TV drama market.
Xu Dashi was very happy just with this word-of-mouth, even if ‘Broken Continent’ did not earn much.
Moreover, ‘Broken Continent’ results were really good!
Manager Wu remained silent in response to Xu Dashi’s question. They really couldn’t achieve it.
“Mr. Xu,” Manager Wu said again, “It’s enough that we know the real viewership statistics on which show did better. Why do we have to…”
“Manager Wu,” Xu Dashi interrupted coldly, “We know, but we also need the audience to know.”
“Why should the excellent results by ‘Broken Continent’ be made into a private matter within our company?” Xu Dashi asked in return.
“If ‘Nine Heavens’ wants to change the viewership data, that’s fine. ‘Broken Continent’ shall get theirs changed as well. Otherwise, neither changes. It’s that simple,” Xu Dashi said coldly. “Think about it carefully.”
Xu Dashi wanted to ask why Manager Wu was still in the mood to worry about ‘Nine Heavens’ right now?
He should start worrying about how to write his resignation letter.
Manager Wu: “…”
“If you can’t make this decision on your own, you can discuss it with Director Guo.” Xu Dashi didn’t bring up the matter of Manager Wu resigning.
Working hours were over. The important matters could be discussed tomorrow.
If Manager Wu felt that this was only the beginning, and insisted on waiting for the final results, he could also wait for ‘Broken Continent’ to finish broadcasting. It didn’t matter.
Things couldn’t work out with Xu Dashi, Manager Wu couldn’t even hope for things to go through with Yan Zhengxing.
He could only pass on Xu Dashi’s message to Guo Qingchen.
For some reason, Guo Qingchen’s first thought when he heard Manager Wu’s words was ‘Just as I expected.
He knew he couldn’t count on Manager Wu.
When Manager Wu said that he would take care of this matter, Guo Qingchen had a feeling that it would definitely not work out. As expected.
“I’ll go talk to Mr. Xu again.”
Guo Qingchen was already numb. In the future, he would not look for Manager Wu anymore.
What was the use of looking for him?
It was just a waste of time.
Manager Wu: “…”
He had a feeling he had caught on something from Guo Qingchen’s tone.
Guo Qingchen immediately went to contact Xu Dashi..
