Chapter 219: It's Time to Divide the Pork Again
Rin Chihara's words are very tough, but the actual situation is slowly starting to deteriorate.
Kamitanno provoked trouble, and the four major commercial stations took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire, for fear that this matter would not heat up, and it would become serious - Kamitanno began to appear on talk shows, trembling his hands and talking about the harm caused to him by Rin Chihara, and his image was very pitiful.
The people eat this very much, compared to Kamiyano and Chihara Rin, it is a standard vulnerable group, the so-called who is weak is reasonable, this thing is that Chihara Rin is wrong, he must be bullying the weak.
Iori Murakami tried his best, but it is human nature to sympathize with the weak, and this inherent concept is not easy to break, whether it is a press conference or a newspaper voice, it is quickly drowned out in a wave of doubts about Chihara Rin people, and this voice of doubt is changing in the direction of accusation.
Rin Chihara was still not in a hurry, and he couldn't solve the problem in a hurry, he didn't even pound the table when he was alone, he just calmly watched all this, and even the legal department proposed to send a lawyer's letter to warn a few newspaper writers who spoke too much, but he stopped them - whether these people are farting or not, they now represent "public opinion", and going against "public opinion" never ends well, regardless of whether this "public opinion" is right or wrong.
He has seen too many similar examples in another world, the entertainment industry has the rules of the game in the entertainment industry, and what is never right in this world will definitely be supported, and if it is wrong, it will definitely be blamed.
He wrote them down in a small notebook, waiting for the day when the accounts would come after the autumn - he had always been only superficially gentle, and the little things might not be counted, because it was not worth his time, but it really made him hold a grudge, and he could remember it for at least ten years.
He is not in a hurry, he is still working step by step, but someone is anxious for him.
Banquan Izumi was the first to speak out, unconditionally supported him, and used his personality to guarantee that Chihara Rin was not the kind of person Kamiyano said, so he almost directly accused Kamiyano of lying, but the people suspected that she was shielding Chihara Rinren, and they didn't believe her words very much - ordinary people love brains, and many people think they are a couple, and the girlfriend covers the boyfriend, which is normal.
The second one who openly supported him, even Rin Chihara himself, was a little surprised, it was Yuko Izumi. Originally, he thought that Izumi Yuko should be the fastest one to shrink her head, but she didn't expect that after she followed Banquan Quanshui, she also bluntly said in front of reporters that she didn't believe every word that Kamitanno said, and that kid Kamitanno was spreading rumors.
The reporter also didn't believe her words, but someone asked her if she was under pressure from Rin Chihara.
Subsequently, actors such as Kanno Shin, Onuma Shin and other actors who have worked with Rin Chihara also expressed some support, and actors such as Asami Kawa, Hosokawa Tsai, Hiroshi Soma, and Misaki Whalei who are in the crew are naturally not far behind, and have publicly expressed the same meaning on different occasions: Rin Chihara is not that kind of person, don't listen to Kamitano's one-sided words.
Rin Chihara's popularity among his peers is average, and his popularity in the actor circle is good, but it's still useless, and the sewage in the newspaper is more vigorous, and he talks to himself very much, and it doesn't take two days to change from discussing whether Rin Chihara is a bastard to studying what kind of bastard Rin Chihara is.
Or a little more neutral in disguise, saying that Rin Chihara may have been a good guy in the past, but now...... What made him the badass he is now?
Is it fame, is it profit, is it vanity?
Is the road too smooth, arrogant?
Is it because the mentality is too inflated, and the rush for quick success and quick profit has begun to destroy human nature?
It's a pity that if you don't control your own heart, the genius will fall, and everyone will be punished in the future!
It's deplorable, it's sympathetic.
……
In another seven or eight years, this is how the traditional newspaper group cleaned up the Internet upstarts, starting from a small sore foot, step by step to finalize that this person has a flawed character, and then attacked from all sides, exposing more black material, such as erosive private life, wanton squandering to show off wealth, willing to be a lackey for overseas funds, etc., regardless of whether these black materials are true or not, anyway, the people already believe that this person has a character problem, so it is completely reasonable to have sores on the top of the head and pus on the soles of the feet, and finally directly block the matter - This can take months or even a year, and Rin Chihara has just begun.
He really moved the cheese of the four major commercial stations, so he enjoyed the unconventional treatment in advance, although it is certainly not as strong as the momentum of the comprehensive strangulation of the Internet upstarts in the back, but it should also be a small achievement.
The tide of public opinion is not only attacking him, but also brought it to Kanto United TV by the way, and some people are already asking "Kanto United TV has achieved high ratings by squeezing employees, is it considered a black-hearted enterprise?", fortunately, since the establishment of Kanto United TV, it has been beaten by the four major all year round, not to mention anything else, and its psychological quality is very good, so it has not shaken its determination to support Rin Chihara, and scolded back while holding his head and being beaten.
It's very strong, but it's really no trick for the time being, this kind of thing can't be explained at all, and this trend of public opinion is quickly reflected in the ratings.
After the broadcast of the third episode of "Extreme Fresh Master", the upward momentum stopped, and the average time-sharing ratings did not move at all, although it still holds the throne of this season's ratings list, but the prospect suddenly dimmed - it did not fall by eighty percent or thanks to the blessing that Asami Arikawa herself has strong enough appeal, without her, a popular first-line actress, the ratings will go down.
"School Reading Girl Etsuko Kono" suffered a heavy blow, and the 8 o'clock file on Friday night is considered to be the core schedule of Rin Chihara, a large number of viewers who originally supported him were affected and left, and the new viewers were not enough to fill the gap, and the average ratings of the time-sharing plummeted by 3.5%, falling directly out of the top five.
"Xiang Bang", "My Dangerous Wife", "Human Observation", "Suit Lawyer", "Obstetric Doctor Bird" and other programs that have been close to Rin Chihara have also suffered setbacks, and the average hourly ratings have either stagnated or simply declined, and the upward momentum has been completely halted - "Obstetric Doctor Bird" is about to fall out of the ratings list, and "Suits Lawyer" has simply dropped off the list and has become a second-rate program.
Only "The Cold and Warm World" and "Jumping the Great Search Line" are a little special.
"Cold and Warm World" is mainly a drama for the housewives group, which has been half-dead, and the housewives group has not paid much attention to it, but it seems that the recent program that has been related to Chihara Rin has been mentioned too many times, or he has made a big news, and the housewives group will inevitably start mentioning him when they get together, "The Cold and Warm World" has inexplicably increased many viewers, and the ratings have risen a lot, and suddenly squeezed into the ratings list - for this situation, Chihara Rin doesn't know what to say, he thinks "Cold and Warm World" This longevity drama can get up sooner or later, but I never expected it to rise like this.
The audience is really a fan of choosing dramas......
"Jumping the Search Line" is very strange and super in line with the taste of the current audience, even if Rin Chihara has suffered damage to his own reputation, and many fans of the drama have begun to boycott his drama spontaneously because of their disgust with him, but the audience of this drama is still increasing, and many viewers who don't care who filmed this drama are accelerating the influx, and as a result, the rising momentum of "Jumping Search Line" has not only not weakened much, but the ranking has risen one place again.
Or should I say, a blessing in misfortune?
But on the whole, there are heavy losses, and there is a suspicion that it is beginning to collapse completely, and this season was originally intended to try to compete for the season championship!
"Master, I'll make a comeback next season!" Michiko clenched her small fists, her expression was very resolute, and she said seriously: "Let's shoot the second season of "Homeless Child"!"
Although she is young, she knows a lot about things in the circle, and she fully understands that Rin Chihara is in big trouble now, and she has accumulated a lot of popularity with the role of Rei Aizawa in "Homeless Child", and she is very popular with the people, she feels that she should take advantage of it - it doesn't matter if she pounces this season, she will help Rin Chihara pull it back next season!
She will definitely act hard and achieve a super high rating!
Rin Chihara is watching the feedback on the Internet, and many people express their disappointment with him through the Internet, especially the group of viewers who were more affected by "Naoki Hanzawa", how much they liked him at the time, and how disappointed they are in him now, and even Nobu Kanno is expressing dissatisfaction with Nobu Kanno because he supported him because of his voice.
The atmosphere of the 90s really has extremely strict requirements for public figures, and I haven't had an extramarital affair yet! If I really fool around with an actress after getting married, I can't hang up and beat the audience?
While secretly vigilant, he said casually: "No, you have finally won the right to choose your life freely, why do you come back!"
Mei Qianzi only announced her retirement for a month, and the heat has not completely subsided, and it is estimated that her face will be swollen when she comes back, but Mei Qianzi doesn't care, and insists: "The newspaper said that the master wants to compete for the season crown, and now ...... It seems that I can't fight, so let me go next season! I'll help Master compete for the season crown!"
Chihara Rin said with a smile: "Who said we can't fight? It's only the end of October, and there are still more than two months to go, so it's too early to say who will kill the deer." ”
"It's in the newspapers, and I read it on the Internet......"
"What's going on online?"
"Someone on the Internet is calling for a boycott of Master's drama, saying...... Say that you have changed, forgot your original intention, and want to help you...... It will help you wake up your mind, and it seems that there are quite a few people participating. ”
Rin Chihara nodded silently, at present, the Internet has also reached a period of rapid development, especially this year's "Four Counties Earthquake", when many volunteers communicated with overseas through the Internet to seek assistance, which was more efficient than government action, and it made the Internet out of the limelight, the word "Internet" is likely to become one of the "top ten hot words" this year, resulting in more and more people surfing the Internet- When he first arrived, it was estimated that there were only three or four million Internet users, but now it is almost 98 years, and the development of computers in this world seems to be faster than in his original world, and the number of users is estimated to be 8 million to 10 million, which has almost doubled.
Of course, there are still a lot fewer than 70 million to 80 million users in later generations, but it is indeed not a force to be underestimated, especially now that the network user group is basically between 18-35 years old, which is the kind of high-consumption group with purchasing power that advertisers pay special attention to, and the TV station operation department also has ratings statistics specifically for this group.
This is unlucky......
He gently rubbed Michiko's head and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's not a big deal, you don't have to care about this, just live your life well." ”
Michiko tilted her head without a trace, and moved her head away from Chihara Rinto's hands, not because she was afraid of messing up her hairstyle, but because she was about to enter the second grade of junior high school, and she didn't want to be rubbed again, let alone drill Chihara Rin's palm with her head like before - probably because she was a little bit when she first met, she always felt that Chihara Rin always treated her like a child, it was okay before, but now it's not good.
She tilted her head and said seriously: "Master wants me to be well, and I also hope that Master can be well, you don't have to worry about my thoughts at this time, what I want to do for you." ”
Rin Chihara was very relieved and said softly, "I know, if there is a real need, I will definitely speak." ”
Michiko clenched her little fist hard: "Then you have to remember! I will always support you, Master, no matter what others say!"
She is telling the truth, even if Rin Chihara is a guy with a beast's heart, it is also her master, she will definitely stand with him, even if she is scolded together, it doesn't matter.
Chihara Rin was even more relieved, this apprentice didn't take it in vain!
He was about to say "thank you" again, but Rumi Nishijima knocked on the door and came in, handing him a document directly: "Vice Chief Chihara, this is what you ordered last time." ”
Rin Chihara took it and took a look, and found that he was asking if anyone in the current crew wanted to quit, and asked while flipping, "Are there many people who want to quit?"
It was not surprising that he estimated that there would be more than a dozen, or dozens of people, but Rumi Nishijima shook her head and said, "No." ”
Rin Chihara also saw it, and said strangely, "Not one?"
You didn't engage in private threats or coercion, did you?
"It was handed over to the personnel department for inquiry, and the personnel department guaranteed that the results were true and reliable. Rumi Nishijima lowered her head and said solemnly: "Now the atmosphere of hatred and hatred in the team is very strong, Chihara-san, you are not fighting alone, Kamitanno is harming everyone's interests." ”
She wasn't too surprised by this result, she had been observing Rin Chihara for a long time, this person was actually an outlier in the workplace, he paid attention to having meat for everyone to eat together, and even the showy thing like receiving an award would be shared with others, and he wouldn't swallow it alone, not to mention subsidies, bonuses and the like - he didn't feel distressed about spending the money of Kanto United TV.
Besides, he is not a black-hearted capitalist, he can't get on the opposite side, he just leads this group of people to work, desperately trying to make outstanding results, taking the lead, the workload is the largest, and the rest of the people are not blind, even if the newcomers have been together for almost half a year, they are all convinced of him - following Chihara Rin can make achievements, have honors, brush qualifications, and get more money, it is better than really following a bastard, even if the work intensity is higher, they are happy.
Rin Chihara feels good about this, at least there is no internal turmoil, and the quality of the episodes that are fundamental will not be affected much. He directly returned the document to Rumi Nishijima, and said seriously: "Thank you for your trust for me!"
"There's no need to say thank you, Chihara-san, this is what you deserve, and everyone is also for yourself!" Rumi Nishijima said sincerely, this is the return of what Chihara Rin has said and done on weekdays.
"Then let's tide over the difficulties together and move on. ”
"Yes!" Rumi Nishijima's expression has always been very serious, but when she heard movement behind her, she turned her head and saw that Hitomi Konoe was touching the door but it seemed that someone was not coming in, so she immediately raised her eyebrows.
She is very concerned about the things around Chihara Rinren, a while ago, Chihara Rinren, the guy who almost lives in the TV station, suddenly threw away all his work and disappeared for most of the day, and then Konoe Hitomi began to enter and exit his office frequently, there must be a ghost in this!
There should be a group of private subordinates behind Chihara Rinren, and the two disciples of Konoe Hitomi should be his cronies who passed on something, which Rumi Nishijima can guess, but the details are not clear, and it is inconvenient to ask, and there are even some unspeakable regrets.
She thought that Konoe Hitomi was transparent and couldn't see it, and then turned back and asked, "Also, Miss Murakami asked you if you still want to attend the Academy Awards ceremony as planned?"
Chihara Rin was stunned for a moment, he almost forgot about it, this is the time for another year of academy awards, but now he is in trouble......
He pondered for a while, then nodded, "Please help me tell Miss Murakami, I will go, everything is as usual." ”
The Academy Award can be regarded as the highest honor for Japanese dramas, and he wants to win it once, after all, there is a little difference between having and not having influence in the circle, and it is also related to the amount of energy potion obtained, which is equally important - this award is very seriously infiltrated by the four majors, but the invitation to the group season meeting was sent early, and he feels that there should be a drama this time.
After all, the last time he divided pork, he said that his qualifications were too shallow, and basically he didn't give him anything, but he worked for another year, and his weight in the circle was already very different, and he had "Unnatural Death" and "Homeless Child", two national hit dramas, so no matter how you think about it this time, you have to give him a piece of fat enough!
Therefore, if people want to give him benefits, he feels that even if he is in trouble now, he can't ignore the numbers, and he must go to the cheers.
Rumi Nishijima nodded, ready to report back to Iori Murakami, so that she could reply to the academy reward, and Michiko said happily: "Master, I'll walk the red carpet with you then, right?"
As the protagonist of "Homeless Child", she naturally got an invitation, and she hoped to attend an event with Rin Chihara, and Rin Chihara did not object, and said with a smile: "Yes, we will be together then, but you don't have too much hope, there will be no accidents this year, it should be "Unnatural Death" to win the award." ”
Mei Qianzi didn't care at all, grabbed his arm, and said happily: "That's okay, it's all Master's work anyway, whoever takes it is the same!"
However, it turned out that she was thinking too beautifully......
