Buying ratings for 900,000 per episode! Domestic director reveals the inside story of fake ratings

Renowned TV director Guo Jingyu recently publicly criticized the falsification of ratings in a speech at a university. He used his new work "Mother's Way" as a starting point to talk about the difficult broadcasting process of this TV series.

He said: "After the TV series "Mother's Way" was purchased by a certain satellite TV station, it had not been scheduled for broadcast until he was asked by the TV station's film purchasing director to meet a master who could manipulate the ratings. The master offered 900,000 per episode to buy ratings, and 72 million was required to buy ratings for 80 episodes of the TV series . I did not agree, and in the end "Mother's Way" was still broadcast this year, and the ratings broke 1. Recently, I heard that the recently broadcasted "The Rise of Phoenixes" was cut by the satellite TV station because of unsatisfactory ratings. It was a very attentive creation, but the ratings were not high. Whose fault is it?"

Guo Jingyu finally said: "This industry will have no future if it continues to be so corrupt. If no one fights, the entire industry will be finished. I have decided to fight a decisive battle with the gang that manipulates the ratings."

After the speech, Guo Jingyu organized his speech into a long article and posted it on his personal Weibo, which soon attracted many people inside and outside the industry to repost and comment.
