Iori Murakami came, and before the second Seiko immediately returned to her small desk with interest, Rin Chihara asked strangely, "What's wrong?" But he reacted after asking, and smiled again: "For the celebration party?"

"O'Aki" has aired two more episodes normally, and the ratings are not far from 40%, and Iori Murakami is ready to organize a celebration of the "National Hot Drama Achievement".

This kind of activity is still necessary, the price of excellence is to pay extra time and energy, all the staff of the "Oakie" crew are under great work pressure, and it is difficult to say whether they will be resentful after a long time, and whether a large number of personnel will feel mentally exhausted.

Therefore, organizing group activities, having a big dinner and drinking, boosting morale, or drinking and venting like crazy, can also be regarded as cheering for a better job in the second half.

However, when the project was handed to Rin Chihara for him to sign, he felt that it was too much money, and with a stroke of the pen, he cut the budget in half, basically from the business hall to the roadside restaurant, from high-end handmade sushi to roast pork and chicken—even eating ordinary beef is tight, don't think about anything else.

He thought that Iori Murakami was here to protest, so he quickly smiled and said, "Don't blame me for being troublesome, let's talk about saving money." ”

At this time, Iori Murakami had already sat in front of him, looked at him speechless for a while before saying: "Saving is not stingy, Chihara ......"

Rin Chihara opened his mouth to explain a few more words, but Iori Murakami waved his hand and said, "I'm not here to complain, let's go back and see if I can dig something out of the brokerage company, I'll find a way." ”

Rin Chihara was taken aback, and began to look her up and down, jokingly, "It's so easy to talk this time?"

He felt that according to Iori Murakami's temper, he would invite the whole crew to dinner if he was ruthless, but this was different from "Shiqi", the crew of "Oki Ji" was more than ten times larger, but it was not a small amount of money, and it was really not suitable for one person to come out - it was too nouveau riche and easy to cause criticism.

Murakami Iori said angrily: "When have I been unable to speak? Today, the South Korean government officially announced that it has asked the International Monetary Organization for help. ”

Rin Chihara was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Murakami Iori looked at him in surprise: "The South Korean government is ready to borrow money to control the financial crisis, which actually means that they can't do it, right?"

Rin Chihara finally reacted and smiled, "Yes." ”

South Korea's stick has always been a tendon, and he is dissatisfied with all kinds of daily life, even if he borrows money, he has to do it to the end, this Chihara Rin has an impression, and then, he owes a lot of debt to the International Monetary Organization and can't pay it off, and he hasn't slowed down for several years, but it has indirectly promoted the development of cultural undertakings - Korean TV dramas, variety shows and idol groups began to flourish at this time, and with the support of national policies, the "Korean Wave" that swept across could be formed.

Iori Murakami didn't smile, and said after a while: "I didn't believe it before, I thought you were nervous when you desperately wanted to pinch the budget in your hands, but now look at it, you seem to be right, Malaysia announced that it would abandon the ringgit, Indonesia gave up the rupiah, and the Singapore dollar has also been greatly impacted, and now the won seems to be finished, so ...... Will it really affect the book? If Huaxia holds it, it can also be defended, right?"

She didn't pay much attention to financial news before, and she didn't work on Wall Street or the East Securities Building, so she didn't need it at all, but Chihara Rin didn't say that the economy should cross the egg, and she said that she had a nose and eyes, and she couldn't help but start watching financial news while not believing it, and the more she looked at it, the more wrong it became, and now it has gradually turned into half-belief - not only is the international financial situation not very good, it seems that the economy is not very healthy, and it is not in the recovery period as experts say, so the worst situation should really happen, right?

Chihara Rin was speechless, you dared to do it before, you basically didn't believe what I said! But it's normal, after all, Iori Murakami is also a layman about the economy - no wonder she didn't come to complain about the decline in the level of the celebration, it turned out that she also felt that it was time to start saving money.

He was speechless for a while and said directly: "If Huaxia keeps it, it doesn't mean that it can be kept, at the end of this year or early next year, it will definitely be greatly affected." ”

"How big?"

"Housing prices have plummeted again, prices have risen severely, many banks and securities companies will fail, and I can't say what will happen, but it's certainly not a good thing. After replying, Rin Chihara smiled: "But our budget is in our hands, and it is basically impossible to affect our normal work, so don't worry." ”

Really speaking, after the financial turmoil, it is time for the second idol industry to really show its power, and the idols have risen one after another, beating actors, singers, and funny artists to the ground, and there is a snack in this regard, as for what will happen to the economy, he is still waiting for the yen exchange rate to fall from about 115 to below 150, the worse the better.

He was ready, he was very confident in his heart, and he was ready to laugh at the wind and waves, and Iori Murakami thought about it, and was slightly relieved, looking at Chihara Rin and admiring it a little - don't say it, this guy thinks about things in the long run, and he succeeds in preventing trouble before it happens!

I don't know if it's because he has a good brain or if he just has a nerve problem......

She is not ready to compete with Rin Chihara in the "forward-looking vision", he said that saving money will save money, and whether the bank dies or not is none of her business, and she doesn't count if the economy is finished, it is the government's business, and the meat eaters are doing it themselves.

She immediately changed the subject: "Okay, it's okay, don't talk about this." Before you cleaned up Yukawa, Yonezawa promised to come out at noon, what are you going to do with this time?"

"I haven't figured it out yet, what's wrong?"

Murakami Iori looked at the people in the office, Mita Tomohisa and Seiko were not outsiders, so he said directly: "Yoshizaki wants to do a noon drama, but he doesn't dare to ask you directly, so he found me." ”

She can't help it, Yoshizaki Shingo is afraid that he won't be able to speak by Chihara Rinto, so he went to her first and asked her to help say a few good words, and Yoshizaki Shingo is also one of the oldest members of their group, this bit of face still has to be given, and she really came.

Rin Chihara didn't expect this to happen, and muttered, "What does he mean when he wants to do a noon drama...... He wants to make a new drama on his own?"

"Yes, he wants to try to be a big director. Iori Murakami said carefully: "He hopes that we can send him a junior producer, and the main screenwriter can be designated by us, or he can discuss the invitation with the producer...... He repeatedly emphasized that he had no intention of leaving the group, for fear that you would misunderstand, and he just wanted to try it himself. ”

Rin Chihara touched his chin and groaned, before organizing the "Win the Season Crown" offensive, he was the master of the core idea of all TV dramas, that is, directors such as Yoshizaki, Tsumura, and Miyawaki presided over the shooting, but the storyboard was supposed to pass his review, and it was up to him to decide whether the actual shooting effect would work.

The overall effect is still okay, the quality of the program is guaranteed, but there is also a problem, directors such as Yoshizaki are basically equivalent to tool people, and people have pursuits, and being a director is a species full of desire to express, and after a long time, I guess I can't help but want to shoot something of my own, at least I don't want to listen to the above meaning.

In other words, he doesn't really want to continue filming according to the original old drama, he wants to start a new drama, a new drama where he can really play the role of a director.

This request seems quite normal, and Rin Chihara feels that he should agree, after all, the task of "winning the season championship" has been completed, and it should basically return to normal mode slowly, and if Shingo Yoshizaki's small team really proves its strength with a midday drama (25 to 30 minutes), then the compilation committee will not mind giving them a prime time in the evening, and it can be regarded as a big group of their own.

Giving his subordinates an upward passage can be regarded as one of the responsibilities of the leader, Chihara Rin nodded directly: "I have no opinion, then let him try, it's a good thing to have results, and it doesn't hurt to have no results." ”

"I think so too, in terms of producers, I made a list, you see who is suitable......"

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

Shingo Yoshizaki wants to start a new drama, and if he wants to be a real director, it is not something that can be done overnight, even if it is a short noon drama, it will take at least more than a month to prepare, and after Rin Chihara agrees, he will not care, and it will be tossed by Shingo Yoshizaki himself - of course, Shingo Yoshizaki still has to do a good job in front of him, and he must also do a good job of handing over the work, but this just let Iori Murakami worry about it, and she is in charge of the personnel work.

Rin Chihara stayed at home with Ning Zi for one night, and then patted his ass and went back to the NHK filming base to continue supervising the filming, while Seiko was placed by her in the TV station to continue his internship, after all, he is busy flying now, and he doesn't have time to be a nanny for her - Seiko is a little disappointed, but he also understands, and can only hope that Rin Chihara will return to the office more often.

The news of the preparation for the celebration soon spread to the NHK shooting base, which immediately caused a lot of commotion.

Rotate every day, work overtime every day, not to mention the person in charge, even the general staff can't go home from time to time, they really have to vomit when they eat lunch, and the crew strictly prohibits alcohol, and many people have to fade out of their mouths for so long, and they are very much looking forward to indulging in eating and drinking.

Seriously, if it weren't for the prestige of Rin Chihara, the big and small salaries, the overtime pay is very generous, and the completion award is there, the crew would have been complaining all over the place.

It's just that you need to wait until the ratings exceed 40%, so the crew members have a work enthusiasm of +5, and they all start to look forward to the ratings reaching the target as soon as possible.

But bad luck happened, after the next episode was broadcast, the average time-sharing ratings fell slightly by 0.3%, almost making the crew vomit blood on the spot.

Rin Chihara was also taken aback, and took the ratings chart and analyzed it like a tiger, and finally judged that this was a natural fluctuation, not the beginning of the decline in ratings, and it turned out that he was not wrong, and the next episode not only rose back, but also rose slightly by 0.4%.

Then, finally, at the third broadcast in August, the ratings of "Ogie" broke through the 40% mark in one fell swoop, and the crew took a day off to celebrate "Oakie" becoming a well-deserved national hit drama.
