In the era of material scarcity, instant noodles soaked in three minutes are rare and delicious, but now, with material abundance, even well-cooked meals may not be able to satisfy the public's taste.

Television stations in the early days of their inception were open to all kinds of ideas, but in today's golden age, it takes several times as much effort to win the favor of TV stations.

Iwahashi Shinichi felt that the era he was in now was quite similar to the rabbit country he was in in his previous life. Even TV shows, today's talent shows are flooded, and there is a subtle overlap with the atmosphere of good voices, good singers and good actors in the rabbit country all day long.

But I have to say, it's okay to be an amateur talent show, what are you a singer and I am an actor's back to the pot show is really weird.

Jumping out and singing a song and saying that you are a singer, is it to prove that "I am a singer with good singing skills", or "I am still a singer even though I have not found this person for so many years"?

As for participating in acting shows and being judged and scored by fellow actors, it is even more inexplicable. Co-author: You used to act in so many plays, just playing? If you don't have a show to stamp you, you won't be called an actor.

In disguise, he admits that he is an old fritter.

The heat is stirred, the feelings keep up, the value is raised, and then the endless commercial performance heavy taste cycle begins.

Participating in variety shows, we are serious.

Don't say it, don't say it.

Apologize in advance, and don't take it seriously – the above is only for individual people, and none of the ones you like.

In the golden age of television, relying on the office of the TV station, I don't know how much money to spend every year to run the TV station, and TBS, which is one of the three major stations, is even more bullish.

TBS is responsible for the production of variety shows 1 and 2, in addition, there are also TV drama departments, intelligence departments, sports departments, etc., each department performs its own duties.

To do a music program, the person in charge of receiving the production of the second part is the producer.

When they met, Manyumi Watanabe and Shinichi Iwahashi handed over their business cards.

The industry knows who Watanabe Manyumi is, but unexpectedly, the producer took Shinichi Iwahashi's business card and even reacted a little, "Is Iwahashi-san focusing on making music now? ”

This is probably due to the fame of playing bad Matsumoto Akiko before.

He made a little effort and pushed out Akiko Matsumoto as the vanguard of piercing that layer of paper, and after that, idols and TV stations have also learned from them, and now they will never do anything to idols, and what they will never say to idols, they are all unscrupulous.

To a certain extent, in the eyes of some people who maintain the orthodoxy of the pure and beautiful country, Shinichi Iwahashi and Yasushi Akimoto, a chubby young man who created an amateur FMCG idol, belong to the same raccoon dog, and they both belong to the kind of people who hold back the bad and pull down the lower limit of the industry.

Of course, his bad is at most a stumbling block by stretching his legs, which is nothing compared to the fat young man who has subverted the industry.

However, Watanabe Manyumi took advantage of the situation and said, "This project was made by Iwahashi-san, so it can be regarded as a combination of music and television. ”

"Really?" the producer nodded, "It's a fun project for a talent show. Compared with a talent show, it should be said that it is a talent show entertainment show. But even if it is taken out as a talent show, it is also distinctive. ”

"So, how feasible do you think the show is?"

"It's fun to be funny, and maybe it's going to work out well. However, before you can monetize it, there are a few key issues to overcome. ”

Producers who praise the interesting ideas can't ignore the complex relationships behind this seemingly simple show.

The idea of a champion's debut was the same as "STAR!", but "STAR!" was supported by most of the industry at that time, and it was recognized as a show that wanted to change the entertainment industry.

If you really want to talk about it, it was the industry that was uneasy about the monopoly position of Watanabe Productions at that time, especially because of the conflict with NTV, Watanabe Jin threatened by threatening not to let his singers appear in NTV's programs.

If you can tear your face with NTV, you can also tear your face with other TV stations.

Therefore, in order to get rid of the previous one-sided situation, a subtle consensus was reached between the TV station, various small studios, and record companies to bring down Watanabe Productions, which can be said to be the "Nobunaga siege network" in the entertainment industry.

NOW, YANYIN HAS DRAWN THE RAPID DEVELOPMENT OF AKAMORI AKINA, THE BURNING SYSTEM IS COLLUDING WITH THE EXTREME WAY OF THE WHITE WAY IS GETTING STRONGER AND STRONGER, AND HORIPRO STARTED BY TAKING OFF BY IDOLS, AND THE PREVIOUS SITUATION OF DOMINANCE HAS LONG BEEN GONE, AND NOW IT IS AN ERA OF STRUGGLE.

Even though the TV show still has its own unique charm, it is not as necessary for the firm as it used to be.

In that case, if you do this band draft again, you will have to put a question mark on whether you can gather enough partners.

"STAR!" has opened up the so-called orthodox draft mode, and "Dusk Meow" has brought another special draft mode, after the two programs are over, the TV station has continued to follow the trend in these two draft models, but those talent shows that are still broadcasting, whether it is the ratings or the audience's response, are not very good, and the number of talent shows that have been put on the agenda is also increasing.

The draft fever has reached its limit, and this matter has become a consensus among TV stations. Therefore, although the talent show continues to be done, it is difficult to get a good time slot, and the funding is constantly being cut.

Even in terms of sponsors, because the market popularity of talent shows has declined, they have hesitated to sponsor such programs. Although it is an era of spending, it is also an era of vanity, and investing in more "high-end" movies and TV series in the entertainment industry is the best choice, even if you invest in programs, it is best to be in prime time.

Because of this, the drought is drought, the drought is dying, the prime time is becoming more and more generous, and it is drizzling to spend millions of yen on a stage.

TBS agreed to interview them face-to-face because it was really interesting to watch the show and because of Watanabe's face. However, quality and face can be a stepping stone, but not a decisive key.

The band draft is unprecedented, but the talent show is already rotten.

The current situation is that the talent show itself is not very valuable. Therefore, if you want to do a draft, it is easy to say as a cushion show, but if you occupy a fairly good time slot, it will be negotiable.

However, the mat show will not attract decent partners, and it is okay to do so, and if the harvest of the labor and mobilization is not as expected, it will become troublesome.

TBS has a lot of money and can spend a lot of money to produce beautiful programs with considerable ratings for the general public, but they are reluctant to try things that they are not sure about, even if they don't invest that much.

Because there is also the possibility that putting on a program that you value more at the same time will receive better results.

For various reasons, TBS's production department 2 did not report too much enthusiasm for this talent show.

"So, what do you mean?" said Watanabe Manyumi.

"If it is a newcomer selection show, maybe you don't have to work so hard. The producer began to change Shinichi Iwahashi's plan on the spot.

The project was changed to the form of a band camp, which was broadcast in the afternoon slot, and the first selection was conducted, and then the selected bands were brought together, and each issue was held in various duels and run-ins, and the entertainment part was amplified, and finally a group of winners were determined, or the winning and quasi-winning combinations, and then a record was made for them.

"If the response is okay, it will continue in the form of a second season. Said the producer.

According to the producer's revision, the outline they sent was probably only about half of it, and the part left by the producer was also concentrated in the entertainment part that Iwahashi Shinichi used as an embellishment.

In other words, TBS prefers to make the show an entertainment show.

This result is clearly unsatisfactory.

However, two new companies came to the leading TV station with a business plan to promote themselves, and it was not easy to get to the step of interviewing.

However, the producer didn't say anything to death, and gave another proposal, "If you sign a contract according to this plan, it's not impossible." However, there are two issues that I hope you can get sorted out before you sign the contract. ”

"First of all, in terms of funding, I would like to ask you to bear some of it. In the current situation, it is a bit difficult for us to do a talent show, especially if we want to get a similar time slot, I hope you can share this risk. ”

"In addition to that, I would like to ask you to start by talking about the kind of partners who are coming in, no matter how they are supported. ”

After the producer finished talking about the two conditions, he talked about another question, "But even so, because there is no plan to shut down the late-night file here for the time being, or to change it to a music variety show, if you think about it, it may have to be postponed until October next year......"

"To be honest, even if you want to buy our time slot for the show, we can't smash our signboard without double insurance. "The production is humane.

"Next October?"

The first two conditions are okay, but on the issue of the time period, Watanabe Manyumi hesitated.

In terms of TBS, it is a high-spirited attitude that is completely willing to be obedient and do what it is not willing to do.

Of course, this is normal.

How can a super station that has been competing for the first place with Fuji TV all year round, with a lot of talents, no shortage of good projects, and firms that are rushing to come and cooperate, how can they be overly enthusiastic about an idea that is no longer valuable in their eyes.

What's more, even when Watanabe Jin was there, he didn't have much friendship with TBS, and today, Watanabe Productions is in decline, and Watanabe Manyumi is out of her own business, and TBS doesn't have any favors to sell her.

Even if Watanabe Jinzai wants to get the time slot, he relies on his connections to pull in partners, and then spends a lot of money to buy the time slot. These things are clear, only righteous and bright negotiations, and there is no conspiracy to turn the situation around.

It's a good thing to just come out and start a business, and hit a wall.

After the talks, the producer is ready to send off the guests.

Shinichi Iwahashi and Manyumi Watanabe leave the conference room and walk to the parking lot. Neither of the two people on the road spoke, until they got into the car, Watanabe Manyumi suddenly spoke up and said, "Let's think about TV Asahi." ”

"What a coincidence," Iwahashi replied, "I was thinking about it just now." ”

Pulling partners into the scene is something that must be solved.,Watanabe Manyumi was preparing for this project.,When the book was put out,,I also made preparations to bear part of the expenses.,These two proposals from the producer.,The things that should have been solved after signing the contract were brought to the front as insurance.。

However, if they were to wait until October next year to do this show, after more than a year of waiting, the two new companies that waited for the band to eat could not wait that long.

Watanabe made a joke, "It's more reassuring this way." Originally, I was thinking that if I accidentally played against Fuji TV on the show I was doing, I would be blamed by my sister and brother-in-law when I got home. ”

This is clearly relieved, and Iwahashi Shinichi doesn't poke her.

Watanabe Manyumi finished the joke, and then said, "This time, let's change the order and win over the partners first." ”

"Have you thought of the right one?" Iwahashi Shinichi asked her.

"If it's the office, I'd like to invite President Osato's AMUSE. The speed at which Watanabe Manyumi announced the name seems to have been thought about in his heart.

"President Osato has been very supportive of the festival before, and I think I would like to ask him for this matter, and I might be able to get support. Watanabe said.

"Moreover, when President Dazato himself started, he signed with Southern Star, as if he himself formed a band when he was a student. ”

"Really?" Shinichi Iwahashi didn't hear a gossip, it turned out that there was a successful precedent for BANDMAN to change careers and become president.

"Since it started as a band, I should be more sensitive to the current band trend. ”

"Makes sense. Iwahashi nodded cautiously, and suddenly asked, "At the Kenne Office, do you want to find a way to introduce President Nozaki to us through Nozaki-san, and try our luck too?"

Watanabe Manyumi smiled, "Nozaki-kun's side...... It's not impossible. ”

Didn't say good, didn't say bad.

"Actually, if you want to talk about the firm, you don't need to cooperate too much, it is enough to have one or two as support, too much is not good, and it will make a mess of the forces of all parties, and you will not make any benefit at that time. ”

"The focus is still on the record labels. Iwahashi said.

"Exactly. Watanabe nodded.

"So, what about the record company, do you have any favorite options?" asked Shinichi Iwahashi.

"I'm still waiting for you to say it. Watanabe Manyumi threw the topic to him at once, "Since I proposed one, the record company will ask you to propose one." ”

"It's not a loss at all. Iwahashi smiled at her.

Watanabe Manyumi was noncommittal.

"I want to think about it......" Shinichi Iwahashi muttered, "How's CBS Sony?"
