Feature Shows Extravaganza

Wait a minute, what did you say?

Meng Lang looked at the phone with a stiff expression and said, Did I hear you correctly? You just said...

Yes! You heard that right!

Lao Meng, who was on the other end of the phone, said angrily: I want to adopt a godson, the furry monkey of Ma Teng's family. After I finish dealing with it, our two families will have a good celebration after returning to China.

No, Dad, did you take the wrong medicine?

You're so good, what kind of grandson are you accepting? Just accept it. Why is it Ma Teng's son?

I'm happy, can you take care of it?

Lao Meng choked and said, I'm almost sixty, and I haven't even given birth to a grandson yet. If you don't live up to your expectations, why don't you find someone else?

Why don't I live up to expectations?

Meng Lang said angrily: Look, I conquered this huge country. I am not inferior to grandpa in terms of merit, but he is much better than you, right?

But you have no heirs!

What achievements can be made by a man without an heir?

rash:……

We can’t talk any more today!

He finally understood that what Lao Meng said about his god-grandson was just a joke, and he was deliberately using these words to irritate him.

Maybe Ma Teng had this idea, but Lao Meng didn't agree, and even called him specifically to tell him, using this topic to urge him to have a baby.

Damn Ma Teng!

Thinking of this, Meng Lang became furious.

Originally, during the holidays, it was just a matter of giving a red envelope of 100 yuan. If his son becomes Lao Meng Qian's grandson, it won't be a matter of 100 yuan!

It has to be doubled at least ten times!

Who can withstand this?

Just as he was about to settle the score with Ma Teng, administrative secretary Yang Ping told him that Vice President Ma went on a business trip to Europe and has not returned yet.

I order you to come back right away!

Meng Lang called him. He wanted this guy to return home quickly and receive training. Unexpectedly, Ma Teng said: Mr. Meng, I can't come back!

Do you remember the Teletubbies?

The first children's program of the [Baby Series] jointly created by the European branch and the Chinese branch has been broadcast.

Really?

When it came to serious matters, Meng Lang stopped caring about swearing and quickly asked, How was the response?

Success, great success!

Ma Teng's voice couldn't conceal his joy. He just heard him say: This program was first broadcast on the BBC in the afternoon. The ratings of the first episode were very low, so there is no need to mention it, but...

Taking a deep breath, Ma Teng added: This ratings curve is so stable! When the first episode was broadcast, there was no loss of viewers, all of them stayed!

Only new viewers keep coming in, and no old viewers change channels and leave?

It's truly an amazing performance.

Among such a large audience, it is unlikely that they will all be babies between 12 months and 4 years old. There may be adults, teenagers and the elderly.

However, even they stayed!

Although it sounds like a fantasy, from a practical point of view, this kind of thing is really possible...

Meng Lang still remembered.

When I first saw Teletubbies, he was already in the fifth or sixth grade of elementary school. At that time, he especially liked to imitate junior high school students and pretend to be mature.

As a result, he stayed at his classmate's house and watched Teletubbies on the VCD player all afternoon...

This is personal experience!

Looking at Teletubbies now, most people may think it is childish and cannot stand it. But in the era when it was just born, it was indeed a work that was popular all over the world.

The first time I saw a moving plush doll, I was as surprised and excited as the first time I saw a moving pervert in tights!

The plot... is indeed a bit immature.

In other words, there is no plot at all.

The story of Teletubbies mainly takes place on the Magic Island. It tells a series of interesting things that happened on the island with four plush dolls: Tintin (purple), Dixi (green), Lala (yellow) and Xiaobo (red).

There is no main line to speak of!

It stands to reason that this kind of work cannot attract children over five years old to watch. After all, the story is too young and even primary school students find it boring. How can they continue to watch it?

But I just kept watching!

The BBC told me that even they did not expect this result. The original purpose of purchasing this drama was to cover children aged 12 months to 4 years old and expand its audience.

I never expected that this show would be so magical. It not only catered to young children, but also unexpectedly gained a group of young girls and adult viewers.

Ma Teng said happily: When the second episode was broadcast, thanks to the excellent performance of the first episode, perhaps due to the effect of word-of-mouth, the ratings almost doubled. The ratings curve is still the same, stable. A straight line!”

That's good news indeed!

Meng Lang added: But what I am more concerned about is that Teletubbies focuses on the children's market. How is its response among this group?

Super explosion!

Ma Teng said: After the program was broadcast, many parents called the BBC, highly praised the Teletubbies, and asked where to buy these plush dolls...

Speaking of this, Ma Teng imitated the words of those parents: Hey! What kind of program is this? It actually made the baby concentrate and imitate the movements of the dolls! Please tell me where I can buy these dolls. Oh? The child is crying so hard now...

Walter? This is a program produced by PD?

Excuse me! Goodbye!

Pfft...

Hearing these last words, even Meng Lang couldn't hold back and laughed like a pig.

Is PD so scary?

Why did his face change immediately when he heard that the producer was PD, and he kept saying excuse me?

Okay, I understand.

Parents have called the TV station, which shows that Teletubbies have indeed achieved certain results. At least it has conquered the vast majority of young children and made them addicted to it.

Meng Lang was relieved.

However, he still has a doubt!

Teletubbies was aired and received a good response. Why are there still no toys available on the market and parents have to call the TV station in person?

This is not Uncle Meng’s style!

In the early days, PD was short of money. Generally, only after selling the TV broadcasting rights, the toy factory would open molds to produce toys, and there would be a window period in between.

Later, when PD became rich, his habit changed to the model of before the TV series is broadcast, toys are already sold in offline physical stores.

Mr. Meng, the transfer takes time!

Ma Teng explained: We don't have a foundry in Europe. The nearest cooperative company is Lebao in North America. It will take at least a week for them to open the mold for production and then ship it to Europe for sale!

This is not okay!

In the past, the European branch had no IP and only had leftovers, so it made sense not to have a foundry.

Now there is an independent IP, as well as Denmark's Billund Toys. In order to expand operations and improve product distribution and replenishment capabilities, a factory must be built!

However, factories can be built.

workers' choice, but could not hire Europeans. If Europeans are used, the money PD earns in a year may not be enough for their welfare.

Can hire people from Southeast Asia…
