Chapter 429: A Hundred Battles Veteran
Maeda Toshihito was very motivated, and he soon devoted himself to the preparation of the crew of "Dae Jang Geum".
He is a bit close to the workaholic type, devoting himself to work is a kind of enjoyment for him, or it can be said that he suffers from success addiction, if there is no goal to pursue, there is no direction to struggle, but it is a kind of torture for him - he is the type of person who gets off work and drinks with his colleagues, and then goes home to read a few more pages of the report before going to sleep.
He doesn't work to live, he lives just to work, just like some people don't live to eat, they eat just to live.
Now he needs a fresh start and needs to get his life back on track, especially after Rin Chihara told him that "Dae Jang Geum" will also be broadcast simultaneously in the Kanto region, he is even more willing to put in a hundred times the energy, after all, there is nothing more suitable for him and Yoshizaki to return to the broadcasting circle than a high-rated TV series.
This can at least alleviate the pressure on Rin Chihara to reunite with them in the Kanto region, and it can also make many viewers forgive them.
He worked really hard, and when Rin Chihara first arrived in Seoul, it took him more than two weeks to find out where the WC was, and it only took him five days to finish a Korean dictionary, and he was able to stumble and talk directly with the SBS staff - although this was not necessary, and now that the SBS production center was mixed with a large number of Kanto United employees, communication was not a big problem, but it was from this to see how desperate he was.
Yoshizaki has a much better mentality than him, and he behaves quite calmly, and he spent more than a week of fragmented time discussing the script of "Da Jang Geum" with Rin Chihara, and after making sure that he fully understands Rin Chihara's creative intentions, especially after understanding the heroine's character design, he began to refine the script and make storyboards with the help of Korean screenwriters such as Kim Sifeng.
Rin Chihara is very satisfied with the performance of the two of them, asking for money for money, asking for people to give people, but he didn't completely let go, from time to time he had to understand their work progress and review their semi-finished products - key dramas, naturally he had to be extra attentive, if he didn't need to coordinate the overall situation more now, he would shoot it himself.
The time came so quickly in August, and Rin Chihara also remembered the agreement with Iori Murakami, so he squeezed out a day and returned to Tokyo to inspect the situation of the Tokyo 50 general election.
Kim so-mi naturally accompanied her, and she was really interested in this aspect.
As far as she knows, the four-star chaebol is willing to lend a huge amount of money totaling 1.6 trillion won to Rin Chihara, in addition to his ability to repay, a large part of the reason is that he is optimistic about the idol league under the control of IOL company, which is called a super high-quality asset by the investigation company, and is very optimistic about its long-term profitability.
Therefore, she is eager to understand how this emerging "cultivation system" idol industry operates, and whether it is as exaggerated as the report says.
As a result, she got off the plane at Haneda Airport, and soon realized that the report was not exaggerated, but a little too understated, and she had not yet entered the city, and the influence of the Tokyo 50 was already pressing.
As she walked, she saw a total of 31 advertisements of various genres, 17 of which were members of Tokyo 50. From humanoids to large posters, singing and dancing on small TV to songs on the radio, Tokyo 50 is almost everywhere, and the content has also spanned from the telecommunications industry to hot spring inns and touched on all walks of life — a member of the women's team in the front is selling a cell phone wearing rabbit ears, a guy from the men's team is half-soaking in a hot spring, or even a passing girl holding a lollipop with the Tokyo 50 logo on the wrapper.
On the way to the venue, it was even more unimaginable, and at least 70% of the dozens of magazines in the three or four rows on the magazine shelves in front of the convenience store were covered by members of the Tokyo 50s, giving the impression that "nurturing" idols had dominated the photo industry, squeezing out graphic models and even swimsuit models.
Water models have always been the gold absorber of the graphic model industry, once known as a strong force that will not drop even if the world is destroyed tomorrow, but now it is crowded by a group of sixteen, seventeen or eight-year-old boys and girls who are almost gone, and there are even a few water covers, take a closer look, it turns out to be the royal sister team in the Tokyo 50s, a slippery big O faction and long legs, or firmly occupy the sight.
The situation is similar in video stores, with at least five out of ten playing Tokyo 50's album CDs, and some even showing live performances of Tokyo 50's on the screen at the door.
Even, Tokyo 50 is also doing its own advertising, a building in front of a huge poster of the idol league general election, at least more than ten floors and more than 30 meters high, crowded with all kinds of girls and little milk dogs and handsome guys, eye-catching.
Kim so-mi looked at it and was really shocked.
Is this still an idol election? South Korea's presidential election does not have such momentum! Could it be that Tokyo 50 has already ruled the capital of Yuhon? And the people around him are the guys who manipulate everything behind the scenes?
He created this model, guided the trend, and then quietly got unimaginable profits?
And that's just a small part of his portfolio, like his investment firms, funds, and unified publishing leagues.
She couldn't help but look at Rin Chihara, who was frowning and thinking from time to time, and was still busy correcting and reviewing documents.
She has been with Chihara Rin for more than half a year, and she thinks she is already very familiar with him, and she doesn't feel that Chihara Rin is difficult to get along with, except for working hours, he is still very humble and gentle, let him take a bath, let him drink medicine and drink tea, just like a normal person, but now look at it, suddenly it is so strange, even if he only frowns and makes a shadow between his eyelids, there is a heroic atmosphere that rises between the grass.
Her perception of Rin Chihara was refreshed again, from a grassroots genius program producer to a trillionaire of the common people, and then to a powerful figure with dominance, she felt that the change was so fast, and Rin Chihara noticed her gaze, thinking that she was impatient from sitting in the car for too long, and hurriedly relieved: "Are you tired? I'm sorry, I'll be there soon, and it will only take ten minutes." If I had known that they would have chosen the other side of Tokyo, I wouldn't have let them change, and now I have to walk a little more. ”
More than a million people are expected to vote before and after this general election, and there should be tens of thousands of people who should be there to support, so a large venue is needed, and the "Metropolitan Citizen Stadium" was originally chosen, but it is big, but it is a very old multi-purpose stadium, and there is no electric self-closing roof, so it was directly rejected by Rin Chihara, and asked them to choose a new venue with a roof- He remembers that something similar happened in another world, where an open-air venue was used for a general election, but suddenly it rained heavily, dousing tens of thousands of people, including idols, into chickens, and fans almost rioted afterwards.
It's not that I feel sorry for myself, it's that I feel sorry for the idol Idol I am "cultivating" has suffered, and I collectively condemn the guy in charge of the operation for saving money indiscriminately, obviously selling so many CDs, earning so much advertising money, and even collecting ticket money, and that's the result?
So, he asked for a better venue, even if it was just in case, and it wouldn't cost a few more anyway.
As a result, it is now pitted, and it is necessary to cross most of Tokyo to get there.
And Jin Xiumei saw Chihara Rin looking over, she didn't dare to look at him directly, and she almost didn't hear what he said, and only when she reacted did she hurriedly say: "It's nothing, I'm not tired, but I don't know if I have a problem...... Should I have asked? ”
Rin Chihara was still thinking about the input and output of some programs in his heart, and was ready to cut off some of the ones that did not perform well and replace them with new programs, so he said indifferently: "There's nothing you can't ask, we're all so familiar, just ask what you want to ask directly, don't be polite." ”
This Miss Jin asked him to drink medicine every day, that is, he was not poisoned, and the poisoning was a husband and wife relationship, and he was really too familiar to be cooked.
Jin Xiumei was a little happy when she saw Rin Chihara so happy.
She doesn't really care too much about how Rin Chihara makes a good show, and she doesn't do this business, but seeing that IOL is running so successfully, she really wants to learn it, and she thinks the opportunity is very rare - ordinary people don't have the opportunity to listen to people like Rin Chihara explain the internal laws of something in detail, right?
She seized the opportunity to ask, "I've got a brief understanding of how IOL works, so do you think you can replicate it in Korea?"
With this overwhelming commercial advertisement alone, as long as this alliance works well, it is completely a hen that lays golden eggs, so if it can be replicated in South Korea, of course, it will be a good luck.
Rin Chihara understood what she was thinking at a glance, and shook her head with a smile: "Although I haven't tried it, I think it's unlikely." ”
At present, our country is also carrying out cultural promotion and supporting related industries, and has just promulgated the "Cultural Industry Revitalization Law" and the "Cultural Industry Reduction and Exemption Assistance Law". ”
"The two countries have different national conditions, and the markets are also different. Rin Chihara patiently explained, "The local market is nearly twice as large as South Korea, and there is no need for idols to go abroad to make money, just digest the domestic market, but South Korea can't, it needs more international integration to make foreign money." And cultivation requires close contact with idols, and the local market is narrow, but the effect should not be good. Therefore, according to the requirements of the market, South Korea's idol industry should take the route of high-quality products, emphasizing more groups than individuals, and it is not suitable to carry out internal competition and do this kind of general election. ”
After a pause, Rin Chihara smiled again, "In addition, the people's feelings are also different. You may not know that I have a lot of taboos, especially taboos about asking about other people's private affairs, so what should I talk about when friends and colleagues who are not too familiar with each other? In the past, the first was baseball, the second was to talk about the prime minister, and now there is a Tokyo 50, whether you like a certain idol or feel that you have a headache from being noisy, you always have something to say, and you don't have to worry about offending others with your faux pas. ”
This is also the reason why baseball is the first sport in the world, because talking about this topic is the safest in the workplace and life, although South Korea also likes baseball, but the topic is not as high as the book, it is just like it as a sport, and it will be replaced by football in the future. ”
After Chihara Rin finished speaking, Jin Xiumei was a little disappointed while thinking about it, but she couldn't copy it, and she could learn the thinking mode, so she immediately asked again: "Then how did you come up with the idea of creating this model?"
This wasn't something that Rin Chihara came up with, but he couldn't explain it, so he thought about it and said another reason, "I needed a series of strong programs with their own natural viewing groups to offset the advantages of NHK and Sakurajima in traditional programming and sports programming, so I made such an idol league. ”
Then he quickly diverted the topic and added with a smile, "Of course, when we met you later, we could also get the broadcast rights of professional baseball and other related events, and this league became the icing on the cake, but since it has already started, the effect is still very good, so we will continue to do it." ”
Jin Xiumei was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect that Rin Chihara couldn't find a way to broadcast sports events before, and she came up with such a crooked idea, but now look at it, it's really a blessing in disguise, and there are many big advantages - this person is really powerful, he doesn't resign himself to fate when he is at a disadvantage, but desperately wants to turn defeat into victory, at least to achieve a tie with the opponent.
No wonder he can be so successful, this man's fighting spirit is really not ordinary tenacity.
She sighed in her heart and looked out the window again, now that she was close to the venue, she could see a large number of people and vehicles converging, and couldn't help asking: "Listen to what you mean, there will be a broadcast in this general election?"
Rin Chihara also looked out the window and said happily: "Yes, this is all planned, the first attempt, the second time will officially enter the broadcast range, and it will be the same every year in the future." Although it is not a live broadcast, the ratings should be good, after all, it is an exclusive exclusive, and fans who can't be there to support will definitely be happy to watch it, just like a baseball game. ”
He is really happy, everyone who walks in front of him will provide continuous ratings for Kanto United in the future, which is his treasure, and it is the cornerstone of his domination of the broadcast circle and even the establishment of a super media empire.
He looked at these elated fans, and the corners of his mouth showed a subtle smile, and he wanted to get out of the car to say thank you.
And Jin Xiumei looked at the smile on the corner of his mouth, and couldn't help but mourn for the competitors of Kanto United for three seconds, feeling that they should also start to have a headache How to smooth the gap with Kanto United, and at the same time felt that the ratings competition of Yuben was even more fierce, no wonder Rin Chihara went to SBS to lift weights lightly, and he didn't pay attention to any problems, all the way was hard to grind, and it was hard to grind.
It turned out that he was a veteran of a hundred battles and entered the boot camp, and the two salted fish KBS and MBC really died unjustly!
