Chapter 233: Chapter 191 Exclusive Broadcasting Rights! (Third Update 6K Large Chapter, Please Subscribe)_1

Seeing how excited and happy Wen Ruohan is, it seems there must be some good news.

But.

Ding Yue could not think of any good news at the moment.

Logically, the fact that the trending comments on yesterday’s headline news were turning positive for Ding Yue and Mist City Arts and Science University was good news indeed.

This morning, the official Twitter accounts of Qinghua University and Yanjing University posted tweets congratulating the science champion of the College Entrance Examination from Mist City for choosing her desired university, and wishing Ding Xiaoyou a bright future.

Qinghua and Yancheng University are quite excellent, although both ultimately failed to admit Ding Xiaoyou, the smart and hardworking student.

But their congratulations and well-wishes showed the generosity of both universities.

"Wen Ruohan, what’s the good news that makes you so happy?"

Ding Yue asked with a smile as he looked at Wen Ruohan.

"Heehee, it’s good news for our school. Just now, Director Zhu from our Film and Media Studies Department told me that someone from the NTS had contacted our department, wanting to negotiate the broadcasting rights for ’A Bite of Xia Country’."

Wen Ruohan answered with a broad smile.

Ding Yue was quite fond of Wen Ruohan, his cheerful secretary. Her constant optimism and smile could always lift Ding Yue’s spirits.

"What? The NTS?"

Ding Yue was rather surprised upon hearing this.

After all, the NTS is the national television station of Xia Country, similar to CCTV in the previous world.

"Wen Ruohan, do you mean the NTS wants broadcasting rights to the ’A Bite of Xia Country’ documentary?"

Ding Yue asked curiously.

"To be precise, they want exclusive broadcasting rights," Wen Ruohan quickly nodded, "That’s what Director Zhu of the Film and Media Studies Department told me."

"Quick, get Director Zhu to come to my office!" Ding Yue immediately said excitedly.

If the food documentary ’A Bite of Xia Country,’ produced by the Film and Media Studies Department of Mist City Arts and Science University, could be aired on the NTS, its influence would be tremendously upgraded.

After all, the NTS is the highest-level television station in Xia Country. Isn’t that much better than broadcasting it on Bilibili?

On Bilibili, one could only hope for several million to tens of millions of views.

But broadcasting on the NTS is a completely different matter.

"Alright, Principal Ding, I’ll go get Director Zhu now!"

Wen Ruohan nodded energetically, then went back to her own desk, took her phone, and dialed the number for Zhu Youzhao, the Director of the Film and Media Studies Department.

...

Yancheng.

CXTV Building.

CXTV is the NTS, the national television station of Xia Country in this parallel world. The building’s design is unique. It’s not like CCTV’s in the past world but it’s still a landmark building in Yancheng.

Inside the CXTV Building, every staff member is busy working.

In the office of the deputy director of the NTS’s first channel.

"Xiao Wang, how are the talks going with the crew of ’A Bite of Xia Country’?" Deputy Director Liu Mei asked another staff member.

"Vice Director Liu, we are in active communication, but Mist City Arts and Science University has not replied yet."

"Three days, we only give them three days. If it doesn’t work, we’ll switch to another documentary," Liu Mei shook her head and said.

The reason why the NTS’s first channel is seeking a documentary this time is not only because of the requirements from their superiors but also because the channel’s documentary team is currently shooting abroad. Even if they were to produce a complete film, it would have to wait until the second half of this year.

But when the summer vacation starts, the task assigned to the first channel requires them to have a documentary for the 12 a.m. slot.

This posed a problem for the first channel. They couldn’t possibly use the documentaries from the doc channel, right?

That would be inappropriate because those documentaries have already been aired, and it’s obvious that the requirement this time is for a new film.

Normally, when the station urgently needs a piece of programming that is difficult to allocate resources for, they would find a high-quality documentary from a provincial station and purchase its exclusive broadcasting rights.

Just so happens.

A food documentary has been very popular online recently, and it fits the NTS’s orientation perfectly, presenting the charm of Xia Country in the form of a documentary.

Obviously, the recently popular food documentary ’A Bite of Xia Country’ fits the NTS’s orientation perfectly.

And the first episode, which was aired as a pilot, received excellent feedback.

This ’A Bite of Xia Country,’ surprisingly, wasn’t produced by a provincial or even city-level TV station.

It wasn’t even created by a renowned domestic media school but was instead produced by the student group of the Film and Media Studies Department at Mist City Arts and Science University.

Upon learning this, Liu Mei immediately contacted the Film and Media Studies Department of Mist City Arts and Science University.

As Liu Mei thinks very highly of the ’A Bite of Xia Country’ food documentary. Her personal evaluation is excellent, and after showing it to the head of channel one, he also rated it very high.

So the head of the channel assigned Liu Mei, the deputy director, to handle this matter.

Although the first episode of ’A Bite of Xia Country’ has already been uploaded on Bilibili, if they can buy the exclusive broadcasting rights to ’A Bite of Xia Country’, they can request Mist City Arts and Science University to temporarily take down the previously uploaded first episode.
