Chapter 825: Definitely a Ratings Code!

Ding Xiang left.

Gao Yao compared the number and took the initiative to dial it, "Hello, may I ask if this is County Magistrate Tang?"

"Yes, may I ask who is calling?"

"I am Gao Yao from Huai Province Television."

"So it is Director Gao! Ding Xiang mentioned to me that you are preparing a reality show. I have looked at the project proposal and feel that in some areas, the program is particularly compatible with the situation here in Dayu County."

Gao Yao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "County Magistrate Tang, I am especially happy to receive your approval."

Tang Ye said, "I am an Exchange Cadre between Huai and Shaanxi provinces. Now that the two provinces have close ties, there will be more cooperation models in the future.

If this program can closely follow policy trends and better reflect the mutual help and support between the two provinces.

I believe that not only can we make a good program that audiences love to watch, but we can also respond to the national call and express the correct social stance."

Gao Yao was a bit surprised.

Tang Ye had actually elevated the significance of the program to a higher dimension.

He had endowed the program with political significance.

"County Magistrate Tang, you are absolutely right! When we make a program, we must not only pursue entertainment value but also pay attention to social significance. We will arrange for people to go to the local area for a field inspection in the near future."

Tang Ye said, "Mm, if you have any needs later on, just tell us, and we will certainly cooperate fully."

After Gao Yao hung up the phone, she immediately called over the program director.

"I just contacted Dayu County. The filming location for the first episode can be set at the Cliff Village in Dayu County."

The director's eyes lit up: "Is that the Cliff Village that you can only enter by climbing a Vine Ladder? This is definitely a ratings code!"

"Yes, it was introduced by Ding Xiang. Her brother is participating in cadre exchanges in Dayu County and has already greeted the County Party Secretary."

"Ding Xiang's brother? Isn't Teacher Ding an only child?" The director raised the corners of his mouth, clearly having developed a gossipy interest.

Gao Yao waved her hand: "You hurry up and arrange for people to go to Dayu County to scout the location.

By the way, when I was communicating with the other party just now, I had a great inspiration: we can use the program to connect and link the resources of the two provinces.

This way, we can not only gain the support of the Government.

Perhaps we might even win a major award at the end of the year."

The director slapped his thigh and gave Gao Yao a thumbs up.

"This idea has vision!"

……

Once the program started filming, there would certainly be many aspects that needed coordination from the city.

Therefore, Tang Ye made a phone call to Fang Chengxin.

"Brother Fang, I am reporting some good news to you.

Huai Province Television is planning a life-exchange program, letting rural children go to the city to experience modern construction, and letting city children go to the countryside to experience rural transformation.

I have already made contact with the program team.

They are willing to film one of the episodes in Shanyang Village in Dayu County."

Fang Chengxin keenly sensed the potential value in this and immediately said, "This idea is excellent! I will report it to the leadership in a moment to see if we can incorporate this into the activities for the exchange of cadres between the two provinces."

"Then I will have to trouble you to help us strive for it!

If we have the care and support of the Organization Department, this program will certainly be able to complete filming smoothly.

Dayu County's poverty alleviation work will also have one more channel for publicity!"

After hanging up the phone with Fang Chengxin, Tang Ye was suddenly full of confidence!

Once Fang Chengxin understood this matter, he would definitely report it layer by layer, and it would not be long before the leaders of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department would certainly know about it.

Regardless of whether it succeeds in the end, at least he must let the higher-level leaders see that he is doing solid work.

Constantly manifesting his sense of presence!

This is also an essential rule of the workplace!

……

Two days later.

The *Exchange Starry Sky* program team arrived in Dayu County.

Tang Ye arranged vehicles in advance to receive the staff.

What surprised Tang Ye was that Ding Xiang had actually come along with the program team.

"Ding Xiang, long time no see!" Tang Ye greeted her with a smile.

"I haven't had any programs or announcements recently, and I just happened to want to take my annual leave, so I came along to take a look, just to experience life." Ding Xiang looked at Tang Ye, and seeing that his skin had darkened quite a bit and become rougher, a trace of heartache suddenly welled up in her heart.

"Coming to Dayu County to experience life, you really are looking for hardship where there is none," Tang Ye teased.

Ding Xiang then introduced her colleagues to Tang Ye: "This is Sister Yao, the Producer of the program team; this is Brother Chen Peng, the Director..."

Tang Ye shook hands with everyone on the program team one by one in a generous manner.

Gao Yao observed Tang Ye carefully, feeling secretly shocked inside.

As a producer for a provincial station program, she had dealt with many political figures.

Tang Ye was truly too young!

And youth, in an official career, means potential.

Gao Yao said with a smile, "Teacher Ding accompanied us here specifically to scout the location for your sake; it really was hard work. County Magistrate Tang, you have quite a lot of face. Teacher Ding is now the pillar of our provincial station."

Ding Xiang waved her hand quickly, "Sister Gao, you are exaggerating. There are so many excellent female hosts at the station. I don't even rank."

Tang Ye laughed, "I am quite surprised too. Teacher Gao, you all should rest at the Reception House today, and tomorrow morning I will take you to see Shanyang Village."

Gao Yao nodded slightly: "Fine, everything will be as you arrange."

……

The next morning, Tang Ye led the group toward Shanyang Village.

At this time, the road leading to Shanyang Village was already under construction, with progress just past one-third, so entering Shanyang Village now, even without taking that Vine Ladder, was much more convenient than before.

However, in order to let the production team collect more material, Tang Ye still deliberately led them along that particularly famous, yet also particularly difficult mountain path;

At the same time, in order to "torment" Jiang Rou and force her to return to Hanzhou sooner, he incidentally brought Jiang Rou along as well.

Branch Secretary Yang of Shanyang Village had long been waiting at the entrance to the mountain, and seeing that Tang Ye had brought reporters, a warm smile immediately appeared on his face.

"County Magistrate Tang, long time no see!"

"Branch Secretary Yang, these are comrades from Huai Province Television; they intend to record a program in Shanyang Village and have come over today to scout the location."

"Welcome everyone to visit Shanyang Village!"

The group experienced the thrill of the Vine Ladder, and after spending over an hour, they finally managed to arrive at Shanyang Village.

Just as they reached the village entrance, Wu Chunming came up to meet them with the students from the village primary school.

Gao Yao and Chen Peng exchanged glances, both seeing a sense of emotion in the other's eyes.

They had been almost exhausted to the point of collapse while halfway up the mountain, and had never imagined that the conditions in the mountains would be so arduous;

However, once they truly reached the mountain, a trace of relief welled up in their hearts.

Because they had previously worried that the media coverage would deliberately exaggerate the facts, but now they had personally experienced the difficulty of climbing the mountain and had seen the poverty here with their own eyes.

This trip to scout the location was worth it after all!

On the way back, Gao Yao found a private opportunity to say to Tang Ye: "County Magistrate Tang, Shanyang Village matches our initial expectations. After we return, we will immediately finalize the arrangements for recording the first episode."

"That would be great." Tang Ye breathed a sigh of relief, "If there is anything that needs cooperation later on, just let me know!"

Early the next morning, they saw off the television station work group.

Tang Ye headed straight to Hongyue Township without stopping.

Waiting for the arrival of the professional team from the Provincial Geological Team...
