Chapter 406: Bad Duo
The next day, the average time-sharing ratings of the autumn chapter of "The World's No. 1" dropped by 13.11% from 27.88%, but the entire ratings curve is very peculiar, and it can even be said that there has never been such a strange program ratings curve in the history of this broadcast.
Thirty minutes before the show, it once broke through 30% of the ratings, and the situation was not a small good, but a big one, but then some viewers discovered the news album broadcast by the Kanto United Emergency Broadcast, which was spread to ten, ten, hundred, and hundreds in a very short period of time, causing a large number of viewers to change the channel, and the ratings of the autumn chapter of "The World's First" fell sharply, once falling below 10% - The broadcast of Kanto United was too sudden, and by the time the Sakurajima TV Audit Department reacted that it was going to be replaced with an advertisement, it was too late, and only the final subtitles were cut out, otherwise it would be difficult for the autumn chapter of "Said to be the World's No. 1" to even have a ratings report.
However, these don't matter anymore, although academic fraud is not rare in this book, but it is limited to the academic circle, and has almost nothing to do with the lives of ordinary people, this is the first time that the vast majority of viewers across the country have witnessed academic fraud, and they are directly stunned - Sakurajima TV is broadcasting the "glorious moment" when Shigeta Shang excavated the paleolithic tools millions of years ago, and the Kanto United broadcast at the same time how these paleolithic tools were buried.
It's a pity that there are not too many people who have a sense of humor, and the vast majority of the audience feel deceived by this show and Shigeta Shang, and they have been a super fool for a month and a half.
The government departments in Hokkaido, Miyagi Prefecture and other places were also a little dumbfounded, are the ruins fake?
The Ministry of Culture, Education, Science and Technology is even more embarrassed, this new textbook has been revised and delivered for printing, and the history of this book has returned to more than 30,000 years ago?
Do you want to change it back? Wouldn't that seem stupid?
The incident fermented very quickly, saying that the society was originally very concerned about the issue of integrity, and regarded integrity as the pillar of social order, and the consequences of fraud have always been extremely serious, from imported eels pretending to be domestic eels to singers and singers who sang falset-to-mouth, and they will always be investigated to the end - the eel incident, after the chairman publicly apologized, he was still listed as a refusal by all banks, and finally he could only file for bankruptcy, and the singers who sang falsely were all boycotted by the public without exception, and could only retire gloomily.
The academic fraud, or the blatant academic fraud, is naturally extremely serious, plus the so-called "national pride" collapsed, the shame of being deceived, less than 12 hours later, the whole was already a voice that must be severely punished, and when someone found out that the news of the United States, Britain, the Netherlands and other countries also reported this matter, they were even more furious - mainly overseas news as a joke, the people of this country read the translation circulating on the Internet, so ashamed that they were almost embarrassed, and their anger naturally increased tenfold.
In the afternoon of the same day, the Tokyo Society for the Study of Ancient Culture officially announced the cancellation of Shigeta's vice president, and the Ministry of Culture, Education, Science and Culture's Agency also announced the establishment of an investigation committee to conduct a comprehensive investigation into Shigeta Nao, and asked the Metropolitan Police Department to cooperate - this is not only related to academic fraud, but also a large amount of funds are unknown and illegal cultural relics are smuggled and other issues.
However, the Metropolitan Police Department failed to arrest Shigeta Nao, who was rushed to a psychiatric hospital last night because of his crazy behavior, and can only be monitored for treatment for the time being.
After such a shocking scandal, all sides are trying to respond, and Sakurajima TV is no exception, and after a heated discussion by the council, a public apology meeting was held.
If you don't open it, it's not okay, this is an era when a TV station will be recognized as a broadcast accident if it is broadcast one minute late, and Shigeta is still known to the people of the whole country, all thanks to their program, and now the outside world is very skeptical - is Sakurajima TV deliberate, or is it just stupid?
Deliberate natural sins are heinous, but even simple stupidity is unforgivable, and now the whole world is laughing at him, and they are at least half of the blame!
Anyway, regardless of whether Sakurajima TV was also deceived or not, this is definitely a super serious broadcast accident. As the producer of the program, Maeda Toshihito had to publicly apologize to more than 300 reporters, saying that he did not fulfill his responsibilities and produced the program without carefully verifying the details of Shigeta Nao, which caused an extremely bad impact and felt very remorseful.
His expression is very calm, he seems to be quite personable and strong, and his attitude of admitting his mistakes is also sincere, but the people are still not satisfied, Shigeta is still mentally ill, and there is no way to drag him out of the mental hospital to beat, and now there is only one responsible guy left on Sakurajima TV, so simply throw out a special agent to be a scapegoat?
How is that possible!
The government agencies are also not very satisfied, mainly because they have also been deceived, it seems that the government is very incompetent and stupid, and they must try to shake off the blame, then they can only blame Sakurajima TV, and it is impossible to accept Sakurajima TV to deal with it so lightly and get out - many officials or parliamentarians are openly or covertly indicated, I will be fooled because I trust Sakurajima TV too much, I think they are Shigeta Shang's accomplices!
A vigorous boycott campaign was launched on the Internet, with more than 50,000 signatures in just 24 hours, and many newspapers also agreed that Sakurajima TV lacked a sense of responsibility and was not sincere in apologetic.
By the third day, Sakurajima TV couldn't stand the pressure. The main reason is that the opinions of the council cannot be unified, some people have a tough attitude, and some people want to delay and take a look, but advertisers and franchisees collectively demand that public opinion be quickly calmed down and stop losses as soon as possible, and public opinion cannot be allowed to ferment again.
Soon, Sakurajima TV held a press conference again for a deep review, and an executive deputy director came forward to apologize for the crime, announcing that Maeda Toshihito would be dismissed and never hired, and at the same time punished many staff members of "Said to be the World's No. 1", and Maeda Toshihito's previous two, three, and five programs were also completely suspended for rectification, and when it will be rebroadcast.
At this point, Sakurajima TV was barely embarrassed to get out, but the discussion of the "Shigeta Nao fraud incident" has not stopped, and countless hindsight jumps out, or in the talk show, or in the newspaper column, and begins to analyze from all aspects why Shigeta Nao, the scum of the world, has been at large for more than ten years, and has taken so much money from the government, and no one has come to expose it.
Some people think that it is the cause of the system, the problem of the government, and the prime minister is also responsible, but in the past 10 years or so, there have been 16 prime ministers, and it is difficult to say which prime minister should be responsible.
Some people believe that it is the cause of the economic recession, since the bubble economy was broken, the income of the people has not only been greatly reduced, but the wealth has shrunk seriously, and seeing that the people are about to withdraw from the ranks of the powerful countries, self-confidence has also been lost, and there is an urgent need for national pride to resist the confusion of the future, and from the bottom of their hearts, they do not want to doubt it, so they have been exploited by scum like Shigeta Shang.
Some people take it for granted, thinking that this is a kind of fraud, and it is normal to have a heavy field, but they just sigh that the heavy field can make the archaeologists miserable, and the reputation of archaeologists in the future is basically stinky.
............
There is a lot of talk in the outside world, and I feel that all the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods have come out, and Chihara Rin didn't care much about this, and he broke it, but he couldn't care what others said, and he was still busy in the office, but the door of Leng Buding's office was pushed open halfway, revealing half of Konoe Hitomi's head, but the door was immediately closed again, and then there was a knock.
Rin Chihara glanced up, and was glad that he had a decent style, otherwise there was a disciple like Konoe Hitomi, and he wouldn't be able to be a female secretary in the office.
Of course, he is also to blame for this, he ordered Konoe Hitomi to do something, and when he was done, he would come back directly to report, otherwise the secretary would have to stop her, and she would rush in before she pushed the door.
He directly said angrily: "What else are you knocking, come in!"
Konoe Hitomi came in honestly and reported: "Master, the letter has been delivered, and he said that he will do what you ask." ”
As expected, Rin Chihara nodded: "I know, it's good, let's go with your business!"
Hitomi Konoe refuses to leave, and she is sent by Rin Chihara to deliver a letter to Toshihito Maeda, which is strange in itself. In her mind, Maeda Toshihito should hate Chihara Rin to death now, and it is normal to refuse to meet or tear the letter to shreds on the spot, but she didn't expect Maeda Toshihito to treat her well, and she didn't get angry after reading the letter, but after being silent for a long time, she asked her to pass the word back.
She was really curious and asked with great interest, "Master, what is written in the letter?"
Chihara Rin didn't hide it from her, and said directly: "Invite him to work in the Kanto Union, but he needs to go to Yoshizaki himself to get his understanding." ”
Konoe Hitomi was taken aback: "You want him to work at our TV station?"
"Yes, I admire him, and now he's been fired from Sakurajima, so I'll give it a try. ”
"But...... But how could he possibly agree?"
Rin Chihara smiled: "Why didn't he agree? He needs a job, Sakurajima can't use him anymore, and it's unlikely that Tokyo Broadcasting TEB, Mt. Fuji, and Asahagi will use Sakurajima to train producers who have made big mistakes, and no one can give him a second chance except me." What's more, I also promised him the same position and treatment as in Sakurajima, and it was impossible for others to give him it. ”
He really admires people like Toshihito Maeda, and has the heart to accept him, even if he did have a big problem doing the show, but that's nothing - Shigeta Shang deceived the entire book, if he hadn't been educated by the Internet and knew a little about this matter, he wouldn't have thought that a well-known archaeologist could continue to deceive for so long.
To put it simply, Maeda Toshihito is a non-war crime. On the contrary, being able to find Nao Shigeta shows that he is a capable producer and is very sensitive to finding good themes.
Konoe Hitomi thought about it, but still didn't understand it, and asked with concern: "Then aren't you afraid that he will hold a grudge and come to our station to deliberately mess up?"
Chihara Rin smiled: "He may not hate me much, this is not a personal grudge, the competition and the two sides use their own means, I believe he can understand, and if he has bad intentions, then his career will be completely ruined, and the loss will be even greater, I don't think he will be so irrational." ”
"But there's still a risk, right?"
"Yes, but if we want to develop, if we want to be more and more advantageous in the future, we need to attract as many talents as possible, and he is worth the risk. Chihara Rin simply explained, waved his hand a little impatiently, "You don't have to worry about this kind of thing, hurry up and go to work." ”
Hitomi Konoe still refused to leave, and asked, "I still don't think it's good, he has a bad reputation now, and the audience thinks he's either stupid or bad, so it's useless for you to bring him in, right?"
Rin Chihara didn't care at all, "So I asked him to go to Yoshizaki, both of them have bad records, so let's avoid the limelight together, and then find a way to make a comeback together next year, and then we will be partners." ”
This is just a hand of idle chess, purely with dates or not, whether Maeda Toshihito agrees or not, Yoshizaki Shingo forgives or not, it doesn't matter, anyway, there is no cost to him, but he still has some expectations for the future of the "bad duo" - Yoshizaki Shingo can't work in a short time, which is really a loss, but if you can get a capable "demote" because of this, it will be equivalent to making up for it, and on the whole it may be very cost-effective.
Of course, he will also keep an eye on Maeda Toshihito, and his program must be checked, more or less guarded.
However, he didn't bother to say anything more to Konoe Hitomi, and rolled up the document in his hand and beckoned to her, "You come here, you want to know so clearly, I'll talk to you about it when you get closer." ”
Konoe Hitomi was still a little worried, but he looked at Chihara Rin cautiously, and asked cautiously: "Master, do you want to beat me again, I just helped you run out of half of Tokyo, and it took you half a day to find his house, it's very hard, and you're qualified to ask a few questions, right?"
Chihara Rin didn't listen, and then beckoned: "Of course, so you come over quickly, I'll talk to you in detail." ”
Occasionally, the braincase of the second disciple who said a lot of this is a small pastime in his work, and he doesn't want to give up for a while, but it's a pity that the heavens are not beautiful, and then Murakami Iori made a phone call.
It seemed that there was something serious, so he could only stop for the time being and pick up the phone, while Murakami Iori seemed to be busy on the other side, so he asked casually: "Chihara, several crew members have received invitations to the academy award, and let them refuse directly?"
Rin Chihara smiled casually: "You don't need to give an order for this kind of thing, just let the crews make their own decisions, we are an enlightened institution that pays attention to the people." ”
Iori Murakami was speechless for a moment on the phone, "Okay, I see." ”
She ended the call after saying that, and Chihara Rin rolled up the documents in hand again, but turned his head to find that Konoe Hitomi had also slipped away, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly for a moment, and went directly to busy with him again.
As for the Academy Award, an old and uninteresting award, he has long since stopped caring about it.
