Chihara Rin was happy for a few days and couldn't be happy, Hakuma Ningzi didn't come back directly, and turned a corner halfway to help her father run errands - he couldn't wait for a reply, and finally couldn't help but call Yamagami's house to ask, and Yamagami Aiko kindly told him.

Nine times out of ten, things in the world are unsatisfactory!

Or is it the last darkness before dawn?

In desperation, Chihara Rin can only comfort himself like this, and turn back to continue to care about work - he stumbled in love, and there has been almost no substantial progress in almost two years, and the idea of settling down in another world has not been realized, but his career has been devastating, and it has been smooth.

The story and characters of "Extreme Fresh Master" are interesting, I dare not say how classic it is, but it is also an excellent commercial TV series, plus Asami Arikawa is popular enough, anyway, it is much stronger than Yuko Izumi, and as a result, in the second week, he suddenly squeezed out "School Reading Girl Etsuko Kono" in one fell swoop, and won the top spot with a time-sharing average of 24.7%.

The growth rate of "School Reading Girl Etsuko Kono" is also good, and the average time-sharing rating has increased by 0.4%, but it has no choice but to rise much compared to "Extreme Fresh Master", so I can only admit defeat in tears.

The two dramas swapped places, and Chihara Rin didn't take it to heart, anyway, the meat was rotten in the pot, and there was nothing to care about, but it was "Jumping the Search Line" that made him a little impressed.

After the second episode of "Jumping the Search Line" was broadcast, the time-sharing ratings soared, rising three places in one fell swoop, and the ratings curve is extremely beautiful, if it can be maintained, it is obviously a seedling of a national drama - this drama is really good, but it shouldn't be like this at the beginning, at least it is slightly different from another world, it should be a real hit in the next season, right?

I didn't expect the audience to buy it so much......

He was thinking about the reason when there was a knock on the door, and then Iori Murakami walked in, handed him a photocopy, and smiled, "Chihara, are you busy?" ”

Rin Chihara took it and took a look at it, and found that it was a long drama review about "Jumping the Great Search Line", which was posted in the magazine "New Filmmaker", and it was only freshly released yesterday.

The review is very long, he skipped the beginning and found the main points to see:

“…… The title of the play has the word 'search' in it, the location is at the police station, and the protagonist is also a police officer, but surprisingly, this is not a mystery drama, but a strange life drama. In the first episode, the murder happened, and the blue bird (the protagonist) wanted to rush to the scene quickly, but when he applied for a police car, he was asked to fill out the documents and ask the section chief to stamp, but the section chief didn't go to work! ”

"When the wounding happened, the police were watching from the side of the road, because it was the jurisdiction of another police station, and it would be troublesome to step into someone else's territory. ”

That's what's interesting about this show, which depicts the fierce and resolute criminal police officers in people's minds as ordinary office workers. There is no speeding car chasing the murderer, no fierce fighting, no sleepless investigation, no battle of wits and courage with criminals, only ordinary 'business' such as petty theft, lost and found, and neighborhood disputes, which makes the entire Metropolitan Police Department look like an ordinary large company. ”

"The first lesson of the search is full of elites, looking down on the police officers of the grassroots police station, thinking that they are only worthy of driving to guide the way, providing food, and maintaining order at the scene, and the grassroots police officers also respect the people above, calling the Metropolitan Police Department the head office, the director of the Metropolitan Police Department as the president, and calling themselves dispatch workers, and the two sides have clear barriers - just like the blue bird who turned into a police officer said, it is too similar, it is exactly the same as the company I used to work for!"

"The director was busy playing golf all day, and when his superiors came to inspect him, he only cared about what he ate and drank, and he didn't care about his work. People with no background are called around, people with backgrounds have something to do to go to work and have nothing to rest, and even the thief is caught, because the thief's father is friends with the high-ranking officials of the 'head office', and he can easily get out through the relationship, and he doesn't even have to keep a ...... of the case."

"This is a very realistic drama, with a strong atmosphere of life, and it has made a big innovation from another angle, telling a story in a new form, satirizing the entire bureaucracy of the National Police Agency, and even faintly pointing to some people in the government......"

Rin Chihara couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw this, and asked Iori Murakami, "What does this mean?"

Murakami Iori took one look at it and asked strangely, "Aren't you targeting the 'Todai faction'? The high-ranking bureaucrats in the play are all graduates of Todai, and the situation is the same as the current high-level government. “

Rin Chihara was speechless, MMP, I didn't mean that, it's just a coincidence, how can you make up for it casually...... But it doesn't matter, the top government officials in the TV series are all natural villains, and it is normal to be scolded.

He then quickly looked behind him and found that the critic thought that "Jumping the Search Line" would achieve super high ratings, because the script was novel and profound, and could be appreciated by both the elegant and the vulgar, especially grasping the pulse of the times - at present, due to the deterioration of the economic situation, the Great Depression period is still continuing, the crime rate continues to rise, and the people are very dissatisfied with the work of the police, and the bureaucratic style of scolding the police system is very pleasing.

Of course, there are a few sycophants to Rin Chihara in the back, who thinks that he is an excellent screenwriter who can always grasp social hot spots, an excellent creator who cares about social ills, and a genius who can always write profound things interestingly, which is simply born for the TV production industry.

Rin Chihara put down the photocopy, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Are you going to tilt the resources of the Jumping Great Search Line?"

When the season didn't start, no one dared to think too well, but it was arranged according to the normal situation, and the main promotion was "School Reading Girl Etsuko Kono", after all, Friday night was their foundation, or should it be said that it was the biggest cost for their small gang to settle down in Kanto United TV, so naturally they had to consolidate the nest first and then talk about other things, otherwise they would be viciously competing by the four major at the same time, and it would be bad to besiege them together.

Except for this one, the rest of the dramas are equally divided in the publicity budget, after all, to compete for the season crown, every night is important, only "Extreme Freshman" has a slight exception - they have a "gray deal" with Arikawa Asami, and Arikawa Asami will use her personal resources to promote new dramas at the same time to increase the ratings.

And half a month after the start of the autumn file, the results basically have an approximate number, Murakami Iori should want to adjust the publicity plan and win more "Jumping Search Line", after all, this drama currently looks like it may be a dark horse, and it is easier to produce results.

Iori Murakami nodded as expected: "I heard Miss Nishijima say that you have been collecting feedback from the audience on the Internet, and the situation of "Jumping the Great Search Line" is also very good?"

"Yes, yes. Rin Chihara rummaged through the table for a while, wanting to show the network survey data to Iori Murakami and show her, but he didn't know where to leave it for a while, so he forgot it and said directly: "The audience love the first two episodes is quite high, and I also recognize Soma Bo's acting skills...... I thought it would be like this next season, but I didn't pay enough attention to it before, how are you going to adjust?"

They can only discuss this kind of thing privately, otherwise it will easily discourage the work enthusiasm of other crews, anyway, as long as the two of them set the tone, how to use the budget can be decided, regardless of other people's opinions.

Iori Murakami had a plan, but when he was about to speak, he suddenly covered his mouth and coughed dryly before saying: "At present, "Cold and Warm World" has the worst results, but it occupies a lot of publicity resources, and some of them can be divided into "Jumping the Search Line", so that the utility ratio of budget conversion into ratings is the highest. It's the same with "Suits", and this drama is followed by "Extreme Freshman", and reducing the publicity will not affect the dominant position on Sunday night. ”

Rin Chihara held his chin and thought for a while, and slowly shook his head: "'Cold and Warm World' can't be moved, we are all counting on it on Tuesday night...... Give it more time in this drama, and it will improve. ”

"Cold and Warm World" is indeed a bit of a waste of publicity resources, and the housewives group is not easy to deal with, but Chihara Rin feels that a drama can shoot 500 episodes, and there must be places that can touch housewives.

In short, Rin Chihara felt that it should be given some more time, and it was too early to give up.

Murakami Iori glanced at Rin Chihara, believed his judgment, did not raise any objections, and began to think about how to allocate publicity resources and budget, while Rin Chihara watched it with her for a while, pointed to "School Reading Girl Etsuko Kono" and said: "Let's divide it from Friday night, we are the strongest on Friday night, and it doesn't matter if the publicity is slightly weaker." ”

"Friday night?" Iori Murakami thought that no one expected this drama, and hesitated: "The eight o'clock file on Friday night is related to your reputation in the industry, and it is not appropriate to reduce resources." ”

The outside world generally believes that the eight o'clock file on Friday night is the work that Rin Chihara has put the most energy into, and Rin Chihara has maintained super high ratings during this period, she doesn't want to destroy Rin Chihara's good reputation in the industry, but Rin Chihara doesn't care, and said with a smile: "My reputation will be better if I win the season crown, don't care about temporary gains and losses." ”

He took the schedule of the four major programs and related ratings and compared them, pointed and said: "Its opponent is the weakest, and it is not cost-effective to invest the most resources, so it is better to raise a new drama...... That's it, divide resources from Friday and Sunday nights to "Jump the Great Search Line", and directly determine the absolute advantage of Thursday night!"

Murakami Iori thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then that's it, I'll go back and plan it well, and let Miss Nishijima show it to you again." As she spoke, she was about to pick up her things and leave, but Rin Chihara hurriedly stopped her: "Wait!"

Iori Murakami sat back down and asked strangely, "What else is going on?"

"Do you want to take two days off?" Rin Chihara noticed that Iori Murakami's face didn't seem to be very good just now, so she stopped her and took a closer look, recalling when the two first met, and found that the difference was indeed very big.

When they first met, Iori Murakami wore a thickly padded shoulder jacket with an inverted triangle body shape and looked strong, but there was a flush on her cheeks, she had a good complexion, and her hair was shiny. Now her body shape has not changed, she still insists on wearing a thick padded shoulder jacket, but her eye sockets are sunken, her face is pale, her bare hair doesn't seem to be as bright as before, in short, she feels a lot haggard - the price of success, no one can easily get what they want, there is always something to pay.

He smiled: "I was busy last season, and this season is even busier at the beginning of the season, you don't seem to have rested, temporarily hand over the work to the West Island women, you can sleep well for two days." ”

Murakami Iori didn't care, got up and left, and said with a smile: "If you really want to talk about rest, you should take a break first, Chihara." ”

Chihara Rin said helplessly: "I'm in a special situation, it's okay to keep going, don't be reluctant." ”

He has been taking "energy potions" so that he can continue to work at high intensity, but Murakami Iori doesn't, he always feels that she is really haggard - he finally understands what it feels like for Murakami Iori to always urge him to rest before, and now it is at a critical juncture, if Murakami Iori goes to the hospital, he has to vomit out a mouthful of old blood.

Murakami Iori didn't listen, walked to the door and turned around and said seriously: "Chihara, I may not have as much talent as you, and I am also a woman, but I will not lose to you if I attach importance to my work." ”

Rin Chihara pinched between his eyes, a little speechless - don't be so sensitive, I'm not saying that women are inferior to men!

He sighed and smiled helplessly: "Let's share what we win or lose, move forward together, whoever does more should ...... Forget it, you take care of yourself, don't get tired, don't be stubborn, tell me immediately if you feel wrong, and rest when it's time to rest. ”

After a pause, he added, "Give them more work." ”

Iori Murakami didn't say anything more, smiled, bent his arm at him, showed a very POWERFUL appearance and left, and Rin Chihara was even more speechless - you don't have biceps, what do you show, and you're not strong at all, you look strong with shoulder pads!

He just lowered his head to continue reviewing the script to see if the episode writers wrote according to his requirements, whether the details were complete, and whether they met his requirements, but the phone at the desk rang.

He pressed his hand casually and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Izumi-san wants to see you, Vice Chief Chihara. ”

"What's the matter with her?"

She wouldn't say. The voice on the phone was low, "It doesn't look good." ”

"Let her answer the phone. Chihara Rin waited for a while, felt that there was a change over there, and asked directly: "Don't shoot well, what are you running around?"

"I don't know your mobile phone number, I can only come to you......"

"What's the matter?" Rin Chihara didn't be polite to Yuko Izumi, this thing is a good thing.

Izumi Yuko was very dissatisfied with his tone, and said aggrievedly and in a low voice: "That ...... the ranking of "School Reading Girl Etsuko Kono" has dropped, I want to ask you what to do, by the way, it's lunch time, let's eat together, right?"

"I don't have to eat, I'm going out soon, as for the ranking dropping...... Don't you know why?"

"I know, that woman is cheating!" Yuko Izumi hated her teeth and scolded in a low voice: "She used off-board tricks to suddenly break out a scandal to create a topic, and she also took shameless photos to seduce fans to watch the drama!"

She was at the same time as Asami Arikawa, and the position of the first heroine was not yet hot, so she was lifted down, and she was a little anxious!

Chihara Rin looked up at the phone and scolded: "Cheating? You mixed this circle on the first day? Miss Arikawa is dedicated, spontaneously promoting the new drama, you should really study hard! Just don't mention Miss Arikawa, newcomers like Misaki Whalei are also taking photos to gather popularity, so you didn't do anything!"

Izumi Yuko was even more aggrieved, "I'...... I've also been on the show, and I've participated in interviews, so why didn't I do anything? But I really can't take the kind of swimsuit photos they take, what should I do?"

"Then act well, the TV series still depends on the quality after all, now go back to the studio immediately, and rely on acting skills to win!"

If it weren't for the inconvenience of repairing the starring actor during filming, I would have to cut her!

But it didn't take three seconds, the phone rang again, he slapped it directly, and said angrily: "What's wrong again?" The person on the other end of the phone was stunned and said, "Chihara-san, I'm Nishijima, I have something to report to you." ”

Rin Chihara was also stunned, and immediately said, "It turned out to be Miss Nishijima, I'm sorry, what's the matter?"

"Kamitanno sued you, just now. ”

Chihara Rin was really stunned, and after a while, he was surprised: "What, sued me? What did I do to him?"
