A producer's work is already miscellaneous, but when it comes to Iori Murakami, it's even more miscellaneous.

Reviewing budgets, scheduling staff, confirming cash draws, dealing with brokerage companies, dealing with production bureaus, dealing with the government, and social groups – such as dealing with agencies such as actors' unions, ethics committees, and youth mental health protection committees, so that they don't get into trouble.

In addition, there are also things like what actors sign contracts, review of shooting losses, handling emergencies, maintaining the enthusiasm of all staff, checking and sealing the original film, contacting dubbing, soundtrack, post-special effects production channels, and communicating with the operation department to confirm advertising investment, etc., all of which are the producer's business.

In short, it's very fragmentary, list them one by one, and it's okay to list them for twenty or thirty pages - Iori Murakami is not doing these jobs alone, but she knows them all, and they all have to be reviewed and coordinated.

These tasks are not trivial, but they add up to a huge amount of work, and Iori Murakami has really worked hard every day, and she has fulfilled her responsibilities - so that Rin Chihara, the creator, does not have the slightest trouble, and the main energy can be focused on the creative work.

Now that Murakami Iori is lying in the hospital, most of these jobs have fallen on the head of Rin Chihara, and Rin Chihara was instantly overwhelmed by the overwhelming chores, and the approval of documents was approved until three o'clock in the middle of the night that night......

There is no way, there must always be someone in charge of the overall situation, coordinate and supervise the work progress of each production team, praise those who do well, scold those who do not do well, help solve difficulties when there are difficulties, guide and deal with problems, and disagree with each other.

Fortunately, this season is gradually coming to an end, and the filming will be over in half a month, and the progress of the script is much faster than the shooting, and the work pressure of his own job is slowly decreasing, otherwise it is estimated that he will not be able to cope with it, and the operation of multiple crews at this time is afraid that they will be stuck like dogs.

He stayed up like this for a day, drank another bottle of "energy elixir" ruthlessly, and then called Baima Ningzi the next day, honestly explained the situation, and finally said: "I'm sorry, Ningzi, I may not be able to accompany you more during this time." ”

Bai Ma Ningzi on the other end of the phone didn't care, and replied with a smile: "No need to apologize, Qianyuan-kun, dating shouldn't be a burden, just do what you want to do." ”

Her attitude is excellent, but Chihara Rin is a little unsure of holding the phone - these relationships are different from before, which boyfriend doesn't see anyone all day, and women have to explode on the spot, right? And feelings are the most conscious, you can't rely on feelings to go one step further and act recklessly, regardless of it, otherwise it will be too late when there is a crack in the relationship!

Feelings are like fine porcelain, they must be cared for, otherwise once they are broken, even if they can barely be glued, the cracks will not disappear.

Bai Ma Ningzi seemed to sense his hesitation, and said softly: "It's really okay, Qianyuan-kun, you can't accompany me, I can accompany you! I can send you a text message, you can reply when you have time, it doesn't matter if you are too busy to go back, I can also go to the TV station to watch you...... Can I go to where you work?"

"Of course!" Rin Chihara replied immediately, he didn't hide his second wife on the TV station, so he wasn't afraid of anything.

Bai Ma Ningzi smiled: "Then I'll bring you something delicious!"

"No, I'm ......" Kanto United TV gave Rin Chihara a cook, and he ate very well, but he was not stupid enough to get home, and he changed his words after saying half a sentence, "I just make do with it, and I don't need to do anything specifically for me." ”

"It's okay, girlfriend's obligation!"

"Thank you then. ”

"Alright, hurry up, work hard, come on!"

Chihara Rin put the phone back, very relieved in his heart, it's a blessing to find such a girlfriend, empathetic, never do it - just hold on for more than half a month, and make up for her when the time comes!

............

There is no problem with Hakuma Ningzi, and Chihara Rin also stepped down and began to work as a coolie, stumbling and working for a few days, and gradually got started, but he still looked forward to Murakami Iori coming back to recuperate quickly - these things are not big, they are not small, and they have a headache, no matter what, it is very annoying.

And he doesn't have as much experience as Iori Murakami in these things, so there are no major problems, but the overall shooting progress is inexplicably a little behind, and it is estimated that in two weeks, it may be more than a day behind.

This is probably the last difficulty of this season, fortunately Iori Murakami has hard teeth, if he fell ill a month ago, this season's season champion will basically say goodbye. Therefore, the production of TV series has never been a one-person job, and it still has to rely on the team - no one can do it without core personnel, and Iori Murakami is the most seriously ill, such as Shingo Yoshizaki, Haruki Tsumura, Katsura Shiraki and others are enough to choke if they are injured and sick, and even Rumi Nishijima, who has just integrated into the team, suddenly resigned, and many jobs have to be carded.

After the end of the first week of December, his dramas have also completed the ninth round of broadcasting, and the results are still very good, basically locking the season crown in the evening slot of this season, and they are also in an all-round dominant position on the ratings list.

"Extreme Fresh Master" is ranked first;

"School Reading Girl Etsuko Kono" ranked second with a slight disadvantage;

"Jumping the Great Search Line" narrowly captured three places;

"Xiang Bang" won sixth place;

"Cold and Warm World" won the ninth place;

The rest of the dramas are also basically on the list, so that the entire ratings list can be seen, and the names of Kanto United TV have appeared continuously, which is quite spectacular - this has reached the end of this season, unless it is deliberately killed, there will be no major changes in the results, and it is basically a foregone conclusion!

The audience didn't feel much of this, but the insiders began to shake in their hearts, and they could almost be said to be daunted - they couldn't understand how Rin Chihara did it, which was the main reason for the fear.

The strength of the production bureau of Kanto United Television is well known to everyone in the circle. It's just been a few years since it was formed, there is no accumulation of heritage, the personnel have not been trained at all, and the production level is just like that, it belongs to the goods that have been beaten by the old-timers for a long time, and it has risen so suddenly, the top five account for three, the top ten account for five, and the advantage of one enemy and five major has the advantage, it can only be said that Chihara Rin is really strong enough, and he is definitely the kind of peerless fierce general brother who rushes into battle alone and turns the tide of the battle.

In this TV production circle, ratings are the standard for measuring everything, no matter what you think of Chihara Rinren, whether you think he doesn't respect his predecessors, or think that he is proud of his talents, at this time, you have to obediently bow your head and pay tribute to this achievement.

Rin Chihara is naturally satisfied, this is the advantage has been transformed into a victory, the task delivered by the station has been completed one season ahead of schedule, and the prestige and status have risen again, of course, it is a great thing, but he was not happy for two days, and he was called by Shiga Ayumu again, just after attending the producer meeting.

The main purpose of the producer's meeting is to see how the producers are doing, that is, to let the producer report on the current progress of the work - the production bureau has invested money, of course, to see where the money is spent, it is impossible to ignore it, this meeting is for this.

For example, if the work is unfavorable, they will be criticized and scolded at this meeting, and if they can't be saved from bad grades, they will also be announced to be cut in half at this meeting, and this meeting is presided over by the special manager, and is responsible to the standing members of the compilation committee, and sometimes it will involve a series of things such as budget allocation, additions, and reductions, and the incident of competing for a good time is occasionally staged.

In the past, this meeting was all going to Murakami Iori, which was equivalent to reporting to the production bureau on behalf of all of them, according to Rumi Nishijima's reaction, Murakami Iori would occasionally be said in a weird way in the meeting, because they ate too much budget, resulting in a significant reduction in the budget of programs such as news, education, and sub-supply - the strategic requirements of the station, the support of the bureau's high-level management, those producers who didn't recruit but were unhappy, and they couldn't help but say a few strange words.

But now that Rin Chihara has been replaced, the situation has improved immediately.

He took Rumi Nishijima, Kotoriji and a few other subordinates to sit at the conference table, and there was no need to say anything, the producers of the other programs were all breathless, not to mention the yin and yang weirdness, and even the voice was thirty decibels.

Nishijima Rumi and others felt very cool, in the past, as long as Murakami Iori got the publicity resources, studios or equipment and props he wanted, he didn't talk back when he was told a few words, and he just put up with it, and Nishijima Rumi and others would be stopped by her if they wanted to return the favor, which made them a little breathless, but now they have changed to the big Buddha of Chihara Rin to sit in the battle in person, and Nishijima Rumi and others have counterattacked at the meeting again and again, and replaced them with other programs.

Rin Chihara doesn't care, if it weren't for the fact that Rumi Nishijima and others couldn't represent all the crew, he wouldn't want to come to this kind of meeting at all, it was too wasteful of time, he just sat there and watched his subordinates fight over things with other producers - in the past, Iori Murakami called this meeting "gladiatorial arena", and the producers closed the door, hating to kill everyone else for the sake of the small collective interest, but now it's just like that, it's quite honest.

It doesn't matter if the person presiding over the meeting, Chihara Rin is now gaining momentum, and the future is promising, in two or three years, it is not impossible for Chihara Rin to become his superior, he can't reprimand his subordinates face to face - he is more looking forward to Murakami Iori coming back sooner than Chihara Rin people, Chihara Rin sat down at the conference table, he felt that the pressure was great, and he had to think three times before speaking.

These producer meetings were quite fast, and Rin Chihara was going back to take care of both things after being the "mascot", but he was invited to Shiga's office by Shiga's secretary.

Chihara Rin didn't know why, and Shiga Ayumi knew that Chihara Rin had been busier lately - he wanted to send a few more producers over, but he was afraid that Chihara Rin would suspect that he was squeezing out Murakami Iori, so he didn't dare - he didn't be polite, and after letting the secretary serve tea, he directly reported a bad news to Chihara Rinto: "Chihara-sensei, Nichinan Imaging has suspended cooperation negotiations." ”

Rin Chihara wondered, "Why?"

It's a win-win situation!

Shiga Ayuki shook his head: "The reason is not clear, but someone must have done something behind his back." ”

Chihara Rin understands that it must be the Big Four, and Nisan Imaging cooperates with the Four for more and longer periods, if someone from the four high-level officials signals that it is best not to cooperate with the Kanto region, it is estimated that there is also pressure on the Nisan Imaging side - to try to cooperate with the Kanto Joint, lose the previous long-term partners, and the Nisan Imaging side probably refuses.

The Big Four are really annoying, harming others and not benefiting themselves, he immediately asked, "What is Taili going to do?"

Shiga Ayumi immediately said: "Taili is ready to take a proactive action, and then contact other film production companies, but a few large film production companies may ......"

In the past, Kanto United TV didn't have this mind, but with the reminder of Nichinan Video, I found that these TV series filmed by Rin Chihara can also develop additional profits, which can be regarded as really moving - commercial TV station, how can you not make money if you have money, and you are ready to invest money to shoot a theatrical version and make another profit from the theater chain.

But the Big Four are very vigilant and often mischievous behind their backs, Kanto United has no hope of cooperating with big film production companies, and is ready to turn to joint with small film production companies, at least to start filming the theatrical version first - the biggest value that Rin Chihara brings to Kanto United is to make Kanto United TV have a lot of high-quality IP, which must be developed!

Rin Chihara's brain is fast enough, and after a little thought, he understands what Shiga Ayumi means. The Japanese cinema system is strange, cooperating with a small film production company, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the film to be rolled out across the country, Shiga Ayumi is afraid that he has an opinion, so he has to ask first, after all, it has affected his royalty income, and it has also lowered his X level a little, but he doesn't care, everything is difficult at the beginning, he can understand!

He laughed: "It's good to be a small company, at least it's not that much." ”

It is impossible for the Big Four to cover the sky in Japan, and to find someone who has no business relationship with the Big Four, Shiga Ayumi is confident, and more importantly, Chihara Rin has no opinion - it is a kind of respect to report in advance, after all, Chihara Rin has a history of defection, so it must be guarded against.

He immediately relieved himself, praised the achievements of Rin Chihara in this season, did a good job of foreplay, and then asked with concern: "This season is almost over, what are you going to do next season?"

Rin Chihara had already planned for a long time, and said with a smile: "The next season is mainly conservative, and the existing crew will continue to operate, and I am not ready to start a new drama for the time being, so that everyone can take a break." ”

Most of the dramas he chose this time are longevity dramas, which are enough to be filmed for a long time, and the results are currently good, probably only need to temporarily cut "The Suits", and there is no need to change anything else, let alone add new dramas.

"Everyone has really worked hard, and it's time to take a good rest. Shiga nodded as he listened, approving of Rin Chihara's arrangement, but handed him a document and said with a smile: "But Taili hopes that Chihara-sensei will open a new drama next season." ”

Chihara Rin took the document a little strangely, opened it, and found that it was the 97 annual TV station influence report, and the first place is, of course, NHK, the oldest TV station has developed the earliest and has the highest credibility, and the commercial TV station is currently unable to shake its status.

In second place is Sakurajima TV, an ambitious TV station that is trying to overthrow NHK to try its supremacy, followed by Tokyo Broadcasting TEB and Mt. Fuji, followed by Asahagi TV's young guys this year, and then Kanto United TV, but it is already catching up with Asahagi TV.

This ranking is normal, these TV stations have been accumulated for so many years, and it is unrealistic for you to stab people in a year, and it is already very powerful to be able to catch up with the first echelon - last year was a cut behind the boss of Chaoyue!

Shiga Ayumi pointed to the document and said: "This year, Taili's influence is expanding, but after Taili's analysis, we lack a major content in TV dramas, and Taili hopes to make up for it next year." ”

Rin Chihara flipped a few pages back to the document, and was a little dizzy when he looked at the dense statistics, so he asked directly, "What are we missing?"

"Big time drama. Ayumi Shiga helped him turn two pages, pointed to a string of data and said: "NHK's performance this season in terms of TV dramas is far inferior to ours, even inferior to Sakurajima and Tokyo Broadcasting TEB, but in terms of influence, there is little difference, the main thing is that they have Taiga dramas." ”

Rin Chihara understood what Shikabu meant, and asked softly, "Taili hopes that there will be a big time drama next year, just like NHK's Taiga drama?"

"Yes, Taili hopes that Mr. Chihara's work next year can focus on this aspect. ”

Chihara Rin didn't speak for a while, the Taiga drama is special in the world, and the current influence is very huge, and it is normal for the Kanto United to hope for one, but he can't shoot this thing......

The two worlds are different, the people are not the same, and the ancients are naturally different, and there is no ready-made one available at all!
