Rin Chihara is unmistakable on the surface, but in his heart he has been analyzing the pros and cons, weighing the pros and cons, calculating the balance of power between his own and the enemy, and considering the best and worst situations.

But after thinking about it, I always feel that the judgment at the beginning should be correct.

If there is a full-scale conflict, it will be painful, but it is almost impossible to find the winning point, which is not a very wise choice at the moment.

Thinking about it from the standpoint of Ezaki Shou and the Nikkei newspaper group, they would probably rather have huge influence in an ordinary people's broadcast network than be an idle shareholder with no special influence in a hegemon-level commercial television station.

Unlike Shiga Ayumi, they don't care about the performance of Kanto United for a while, they care about whether they can maintain their position as the largest shareholder of Kanto United and whether they can obey their command when Kanto United is needed.

Anyway, even if the Kanto United returned to the way it used to be, it wouldn't go bankrupt, and they had nothing to fear - in the future, Tokyo TV was beaten to the point of being in a wheelchair, and it was the same as being able to survive by playing cartoons, but the development was completely stagnant, and the scale was no longer expanding, but it was still the fifth-ranked commercial station in this book.

Of course, if they are willing to compromise, they will still be willing to work hard in the production bureau, and will even escort them and give them generous personal treatment.

They don't want to lose both, but they don't mind losing both, and they don't even think it's a lose-lose situation, which is the deadliest thing.

At this time, Ezaki Shou and Shiga Ayutsuri are waiting for themselves to bargain with them, but the conditions put forward may be very harsh - to ensure that the equity share will not be increased, and to give up the integration of newspapers, publishing, audio-visual and other related enterprises outside Taiwan, or to hand over these to the Nikkei Newspaper Group to manage.

Maybe they are willing to give a lot of money as a way to make up for it, but this seriously affects their future goals and is simply unacceptable!

However, if they do not compromise, they will really propose and pass it at the board meeting, and they will not be able to go further for at least ten years, and it is not even ruled out that the Nikkei Group will really change the appointment and move themselves to the audit department for retirement.

Shiga may not want to do that, but the Nikkei Group will probably convince him to do so.

And what about leaving the Kanto Union?

Not to mention where else to go, just considering that he is the second largest shareholder of Kanto United, it is difficult for other TV stations to accept their existence, right?

It's a dead end no matter how you think about it.

If only it had been two more years, it was discovered so early, and his strength and shares have not accumulated to the point where he can turn his face at the same time with three at once......

Chihara Rin couldn't think of a good way for a while, he tossed and turned in the bed, meditating, thinking that his head was dizzy, and his eyes were still full of gold stars, and Ning Zi was tossed and woke up by him.

Ningzi is the type who goes to bed early and gets up early, never likes to stay up late, and has a healthy life and rest, but her boyfriend is the reincarnation of an owl, and the more she goes to night, the more energetic she becomes.

She turned sideways, arched her boyfriend's chin with her head, and drilled into his arms, sleepy-eyed and vague, "Are you still distressed, Rin Ren-kun?"

She didn't ask her boyfriend what happened to him at work, but as a pillow person, she could tell that he had something on his mind. Rin Chihara didn't want to talk to his girlfriend about work, so he just reached into her yukata, stroked her cool and smooth skin, and said apologetically, "Woke you up?"

"Well, you kept turning over there, didn't you notice that the quilt was all rolled up on your side?"

This...... I said why are you so cold, and I thought you were born with ice muscles and jade bones......

Chihara Rin quickly covered his girlfriend with the quilt, then hugged her, gently patted her back, and said softly: "Okay, it's not cold now, go to sleep!"

"If you have any troubles, you can tell me, although I can't help, but I can be a good listener. ”

"No, it's my business, I'll take care of it myself. ”

"Really, don't you?"

"Not really. ”

"Okay, you just like to think too much, in fact, our lives are already good now, right? Too many desires can be distressing, Rin Ren-kun doesn't need to ......"

Ning Zi was already half-asleep, and he was sure that his boyfriend seemed to be preparing to continue drilling, so he didn't care, and slowly fell asleep after muttering a few words.

Chihara Rin didn't move for nearly ten minutes, and after listening to her breathing evenly and slowly, he slowly got out of the bed, put on two clothes at random, and then walked out of the bedroom lightly, without turning on the light, just wandering around the home with only a faint moonlight.

Ning Zi usually laughs gently, only turning his mind in his stomach, but in fact, he rarely tells the truth, and he probably only speaks his heart when he sleeps dizzy, right?

Is it true that I have too many desires? Is it really too dissatisfied?

In fact, think about it, by crossing the dividend, with desperate efforts, I have achieved heights that are difficult for others to achieve in their lives in just six or seven years, have a successful career, are generally respected by the society, are so rich that it is difficult to lose their families, and have a maverick but very slippery girlfriend, it seems that ......

It's pretty good!

But such a self will still be distressed until he can't sleep at night, maybe he really has too much desire?

Maybe it's not impossible to compromise, it's not impossible to be content, hello, I'm good, everyone, I don't have so much trouble, maybe after ten or twenty years, I can still smoothly pick up Shigabu's class in everyone's congratulations.

Anyway, his conspiracy has been revealed, the enemy is also very strong, and there is no good way for the time being, so it may be more rational and easier to choose this way, otherwise it is possible to pay an extremely heavy price, but ......

Time waits for no one, the golden age waits for no one, stop now?

This is really unwilling!

Rin Chihara was there spinning around in circles like a donkey grinding and thinking about his thoughts, and he was about to make up his mind, when suddenly the light in the living room was turned on, and the bright light almost blinded him, and then he heard Hitomi Konoe's voice, "Ahhhh

Rin Chihara wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and stood there without moving for a while, while Konoe Hitomi leaned closer, looked at him carefully, and asked cautiously, "Master, aren't you sleepwalking?"

Sleepwalk your head!

Rin Chihara angrily reprimanded: "Why don't you sleep so late? Don't you want to go to work tomorrow!"

Konoe Hitomi looked aggrieved, and dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak--You didn't sleep either, how can you have the face to discipline me, Master, you are really too good!

But she didn't dare to talk back to Master, mainly because she could tell when she could joke with Master, and now Master didn't seem to be in a very good mood, so it was obviously not a good time to joke.

She replied honestly, "I'm just done, and I'm ready to go to bed, but I'm a little thirsty and want to go to the kitchen to get a bottle of water to drink." ”

Rin Chihara's attitude was a little better, and asked, "Why are you busy so late?"

"I'm busy planning new shows, you wait, Master. As she spoke, Konoe ran back to her room, then took out a pamphlet and handed it to him, "Master, take a look." ”

Rin Chihara took it and looked at the name of the show first, and found that it was called "The Lonely House", and then looked at the specific setting, and felt a bit like "The Life of the Disgusted Matsuko", and asked strangely: "A variety show with the intention of loneliness, happiness and the meaning of life?

Konoe Hitomi said obediently: "It's the question you taught." ”

"When did I teach you this?"

"Last year, when I invited Master to a barbecue in Seoul, it was the day when it snowed heavily and filming was suspended. ”

Fuck your shit, I pay for every time you go out to eat, and you never have a few in your pocket when you have a treat!

Chihara Rin endured it and didn't complain, recalled, eating meat was remembered, but he couldn't remember what he said at the time, probably just casually talked a few eggs, so he could only ask: "What did I say at that time?"

"You said how to choose a topic!" "Hitomi Konoe has a very good memory, "You said at the time, you can't choose a topic based on a pat on the head, you think it's good, and then you think it's good, you think this theme will definitely get high ratings, and then you do it." On the contrary, if you just think about it this way, you can only succeed by luck, and you are not a qualified producer at all. ”

Then you said that producers who are barely qualified will think face-to-face when choosing a topic, draw a square, and then divide it into two, think about external factors, internal factors, and then subdivide external factors, think about current social hotspots, current audience preferences, and so on. Then the internal factors are also subdivided, thinking about how much budget can be obtained, whether the team's ability can meet the requirements of the program, and so on. ”

"Then I asked you, how can you barely pass after thinking about it so carefully?"

"You said again, the ratings market is chaotic and changes all the time, although the second kind of producer thinks carefully and is better than a kind of producer, but he still can't get out of the category of subjective guess, whether he can choose the right topic and make a good show still depends on luck to a large extent, and then you told me what the best producer should do. ”

"You say that way of thinking is called multi-layer thinking, the top layer should be the current social trend of thought, public opinion, policies and cultural trends, and the next layer is the current social news hotspots and public awareness, and the next layer is the selling point of mainstream programs and unpopular praise programs at this stage, and then the next level...... For example, if we judge that the current social trend is hating the rich, then we can judge whether our judgment is right through the content of the next layer of social news hotspots, and finally such layers of multi-point interactive verification, we can get out what the audience really wants to see, and the problem of topic selection will be solved. ”

"That's about it. Master, you also said at the time that it is not a fluke to really make a good show, but a good way of thinking, so I did it. I have been carefully collecting information these days, making judgments and verifying layers by layer, according to the method you taught, and finally came to the conclusion that a large number of people feel lonely recently, and loneliness is becoming a social epidemic, especially in this aging society, which is becoming more and more serious, and the middle-aged and elderly groups feel this feeling especially strongly, so I think that as long as it can resonate with them, the ratings will be very good. ”

Hitomi Konoe had obviously been thinking for a long time, and she was confident and talking, and then she took out some of the news, comments, and handwritten notes of random interviews on the street that she had collected to show Rin Chihara, and Rin Chihara received it and suddenly felt very relieved - he really didn't remember what he said to the mentally retarded second disciple when he was drinking, but now he suddenly felt that she had really grown up.

He didn't look at the plan and materials in detail, and directly returned it to Hitomi Konoe, and said with relief: "Well done, Hitomi." ”

"Will this show be a success?" Hitomi Konoe asked expectantly.

Rin Chihara shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't know, I haven't done as much homework as you, and I've never thought about how to do the show from this perspective, let alone understand the connection between loneliness and the audience, but since you've made a judgment and verified your judgment, then you should believe it and just do it!"

Konoe Hitomi nodded regretfully, if Rin Chihara gave a positive answer, she would be more confident, "I'll do it, Master, I'll submit it to the compilation committee for review tomorrow, but I'm always a little worried that it will fail, so I've been looking through the information just now, worrying about what I've missed." ”

After a pause, she touched her head embarrassedly, "I've never done this kind of variety show, I used to do funny, and now I'm not too confident." ”

Rin Chihara was stunned for a moment, and asked with a smile: "Your previous shows have had a good response, why don't you continue on the previous road?"

"Master, as you said, if you really want to become stronger, you have to suffer for yourself. I did consider replicating my previous success and giving up the newly discovered theme of loneliness to work on a project that I was more confident in, but I still wanted to fulfill my wish to come to Tokyo - I wanted to know my name all over the world, and I knew that my Hitomi was a great person!" Hitomi Konoe said very seriously, "Just repeating the past doesn't make me strong enough to achieve my wish, so I have to make the hardest choice!"

After Konoe finished speaking, he touched his head embarrassedly, and laughed again: "Isn't it very vulgar, Master, I just don't want to regret it in the future, I think when I return to the village when I am old, I will not feel sorry when I think of my experience in Tokyo." ”

"In order not to regret it?" Chihara Rin took a deep breath and said to the second disciple sincerely, "Amazing, I am impressed with you, Hitomi!"

It's really a bit remarkable, it's easy to stick to the original intention, but it's particularly difficult to implement, along the way, there is always something that makes you want to take a break, makes you feel like there is no way out, and makes you feel that you should back down and compromise, but as long as you do this, it may just be in exchange for a moment of relaxation.

Then, maybe one day you will really regret and regret it, right?

Maybe today's struggle, perseverance and self-suffering are just for one day when I look back on the past and will not regret it, no matter whether I succeed or fail, I will not say that sentence with regret: If I had worked harder and persevered a little longer...... If I hadn't flinched at that time, I hadn't been reluctant to be comfortable......

Maybe it's as simple as that......

He smiled and patted the embarrassed Konoe Hitomi, who had already made a stronger decision, and turned around to make a phone call - Hitomi had a point, no matter what, he shouldn't stop moving forward, and he had to achieve his original goal no matter what!

Even if everything is overturned, even if you have to hit a hard way!

And Shintaro Yasuda on the other end of the phone didn't understand what was going on at all, just lying on the head of the bed and listening to Rin Chihara's firm tone with a confused face and ordered a lot of things.

Bastard, this high salary is too hard to earn, and you have to get up at two o'clock at night to work?
