Chapter 203: Amazing Fellow
Tomohisa Mita's expectations soon came true, and with the broadcast of the fifth episode of "Xiang Bang", the ratings of this drama finally made a qualitative leap, and the average time-sharing ratings soared by 1.21% to 13.1% - this is still not a good result, but the increase is really gratifying, indicating that the fan base is expanding.
Mita Tomohisa was very happy, and after a long sigh of relief, he was more motivated, believing that he was on the right path under the leadership of Rin Chihara, and unlike him who only focused on the results of the crew, with the sequential broadcast of each drama after "Xiang Bang", the results have increased significantly.
Rin Chihara was very pleased, but he remained silent and showed extraordinary calmness, but his assistant and supervisor Rumi Nishijima was happy for him from the bottom of his heart - she was the one who really knew what Rin Chihara was betting on these dramas!
He used all the prestige since he entered the industry as a bargaining chip to convince the top management of Kwantung United Television that he could finally win, and if he failed, even if it was because the high-level asked him to participate in the competition, he would not be punished for it, but in the future, he probably would never be able to organize such a large-scale offensive at one time, let alone get such a huge budget.
Rumi Nishijima hoped that he could win, but now that his results are gradually improving, she has seen the dawn of victory, and she is really happy for him!
With such a happy mood, she reads the comments about various dramas in newspapers and online surveys every day, and often smiles when she looks at them - she enjoys the process of rising grades, after all, she is called by Rin Chihara like a dog all day long for these dramas, and she has made great efforts for these dramas.
Not counting "Homeless Child", the first hit drama of the season, the response to "Xiangbang" is still the best, and more and more people praise it in the online survey, and as the show has been broadcast for five episodes, critics have finally determined that this is a rare and excellent reasoning drama - not that this drama is more classic, but it is definitely a work above the level line, which is worthy of praise!
The characters are outstanding, the plot is reasonable, the reasoning is logical and ingenious, and there are some social meanings in the Benge school, which is definitely a model of Japanese mystery dramas.
One of Rumi Nishijima's favorite comments goes like this, "The show is a gentlemanly detective like Holmes (the Sherlock Holmes of the world), elegant, tasteful, polite but with keen observation and careful reasoning. He will seek the truth, and he will always seek the truth, and what is more valuable is that he can also reveal the truth, so that we can see some things that we could not notice before-the ugliness and goodness of human nature. ”
Rumi Nishijima really likes this comment, and thinks that when it comes to her heart, she likes the male protagonist Sugishita Ukyo in "Xiangbang" very much, and feels that this character is worth chasing the drama.
In addition to "Xiang Bang", it is a bit surprising that the second best response in the mouth of drama critics is "Cold and Warm World".
The results of this drama have been unpopular, and Rumi Nishijima can hardly find it in the online investigation report, but as the plot of this drama gradually unfolds, it has also begun to attract the attention of some groups, and a drama critic who specializes in family dramas and ethical dramas especially recommended this drama - "The most touching TV series of the year, there are many contradictions and conflicts in the short and medium of parents, but everyone understands each other with a kind attitude and is trying to live by themselves!" I like it very much, 5 stars recommend it to everyone, you will fall in love with it as soon as you read it, and find the path to happiness in family life. ”
This is definitely a high praise, Rumi Nishijima is very satisfied with this comment, but she is not yet old enough to watch a drama like "Cold and Warm World", and she can't empathize - "Cold and Warm World" is her least favorite of these five films, she feels very dull when she looks at it, and she really can't like it, but she is also happy that the audience will like it and will want to follow the drama.
As for "Obstetric Doctor Bird" and "Suits Lawyer" are on the same footing, and they also have their own audiences, the former accounts for mothers and expectant mothers, and the latter nets all fans of legal dramas, which also attracted widespread praise, and even better, these five dramas are divided into five days a week, and after the beginning of August, Rumi Nishijima is almost addicted to this kind of fun, looking for praise about each drama every day, reading it like she has some kind of "addiction".
It's so nice to be complimented!
It feels so good to be sought after!
Victory is always intoxicating, even if these praises and pursuits are not for her, but as a member of the team, Rin Chihara's assistant, she has a sense of substitution, and she still enjoys this feeling super much, and she can't extricate herself!
It's not for no reason, she joined the core team after the grassroots rise of Rin Chihara, and she didn't experience the tragic process of crawling out of the mud pit of "World Wonderful Story" with Rin Chihara, Iori Murakami and others, nor like Haruki Tsumura, Yohito Miyawaki, Katsura Shiragi, Shingo Yoshizaki and others, and Rin Chihara experienced the baptism of vicious competition at the same time with Rin Chihara, she actually only worked in a few documentaries and TV series, and her qualifications are not as good as Hitomi Konoe.
She hasn't been under the huge pressure that a TV producer should have, so she can enjoy this simple happiness, even if she is very introverted and smart, and she is really addicted to this simple happiness for a while, and the smile on her face that usually has few expressions is bright, and she doesn't notice this happiness herself, but people who are familiar with her don't need to be very keen to feel it, such as her uncle Nishijima Yu.
Nishijima put down his knife and fork, gently wiped the corner of his mouth with a napkin, and asked softly, "Rumi, what do you work ...... Happy?"
Rumi Nishijima was asked out for lunch by her uncle on Saturday, and Friday night was the broadcast day of "Homeless Child", this drama has swept all the opponents of the season with the classic script and Michiko's self-burning explosive acting skills, so she is relatively idle at work on Saturday, at least she doesn't have to follow Chihara Rin to have a lot of analysis meetings, and only then is she free to come to her uncle's invitation at noon - before coming, she has already put lunch on Chihara Rinto's desk to ensure that he will not go hungry.
She now works part-time as a breeder for Rin Chihara, like a real assistant.
Rumi Nishijima looked up in surprise and gave her uncle a strange look: "How can you tell?" She is now working hard with Chihara Rinto!
Nishijima shook his head slightly, her niece didn't like to laugh since she was a child, and she had more smiles at lunch today than he had seen in the past year, it couldn't be because the steak in this restaurant tasted special, right?
He directly affirmed: "That is, I am very satisfied with my work in the production bureau now!"
Rumi Nishijima did not deny it: "Yes, I feel that the day is very fulfilling now, and our results are getting better day by day!"
Nishijima Xiong was slightly stunned and smiled dumbly: "We?"
He also obeyed, and he sent his niece, that is, the person he trusted the most, to be the "prison army", but it didn't take a hundred days, and it sounded like his niece had defected to the enemy.
Rumi Nishijima also reacted, remembering that she was not from the same faction as Chihara Rin after all - Chihara Rin was sent by the head of the station, and her uncle was a representative of the Gotokyo faction, even if the struggle between the Kwantung United faction was not fierce, it was still clear, Ding is Ding Mao is Mao.
She hurriedly put down the dinner knife, bowed her head and said, "I'm sorry, uncle." ”
"No, it's nothing. Nishijima waved his hand and smiled: "I'm glad you can fit in with them, it's not a bad thing, but the recent ratings, except for "Homeless Child", aren't they still very ordinary, why are they getting better?"
Rumi Nishijima became cautious, and explained while sitting down: "It was during the advantageous period of Sakurajima and other TV stations, and the previous programs did not leave any audience at all, so it is still difficult to achieve very ordinary results, and for two consecutive weeks, the situation is getting better and better, I believe that in the next month to a month and a half, the situation will be more optimistic, and I hope that my uncle can ...... more."
She explained in a hurry, but Nishijima interrupted her and said helplessly: "Don't be nervous, I don't want to do anything!" I know that in the eyes of the general staff, the top management is full of fools, but we are not as stupid as those people think, even if this season fails, we will not say anything or do anything...... At least I can guarantee that the Gotokyo faction won't do anything stupid, and the person who is Vice Chief Chihara is worth a big failure in itself, so I'll just ask casually. ”
Rumi Nishijima was slightly relieved, and immediately replied: "The situation is indeed improving, Vice Minister Chihara works very hard, and there is no overstepping his authority for personal gain, I can vouch for him with my personality." ”
"No...... Needless to say, it's so serious. ”
Nishijima Xiong is really speechless, this prison guard, if he really wants to target Chihara Rinren, this niece is afraid that she will rebel. After a pause, his expression became more serious, and he asked, "You have been with him for a while, can you tell me what kind of person he is?"
Rumi Nishijima hesitated slightly, and Nishijima quickly added: "He is also an important member of the TV station, as a director of the TV station, I don't know him too much, right?
"Yes, I understand!" Rumi Nishijima was slightly embarrassed, this is her own uncle, and she also supports her to study in the United States, and she has always been decent, as if she shouldn't be suspicious.
She pondered for a moment and said seriously: "Vice Chief Chihara is a treasure of the TV station, he is talented, he is also very leadership, and he is a very charismatic person. ”
"Charisma?"
"Yes, he is very calm, very calm, rarely emotional, together for so long, I have never heard him complain about anything, mentioning the difficulties encountered, giving people a very strong feeling, he often thinks alone, but after thinking about it, he will discuss with others, and he is very careful, he will consider cause and effect on things, and will make improvements and optimizations for many things that everyone is accustomed to, so that the work can be carried out in an orderly manner......"
"He is also very generous, he will not be angry when someone opposes him, he will try his best to persuade the other party with reason, and the same is true for me, any method and experience will be willing to share with me, which is what I admire most about him. Also, he is not clever, but also responsible, and when there is a problem, he will start with his own review, which makes people feel very trustworthy and dependent......"
Rumi Nishijima said in detail and said a lot, after all, she has been with Rin Chihara every day in the past few months, and she has observed carefully enough, and Nishijima Yu listened equally seriously, and finally nodded: "Sounds like a perfect boss." ”
"No, just at work, he can usually create a garbage dump by himself. ”
Nishijima shook his head slightly, for a career-oriented man, this kind of shortcoming is insignificant, and immediately asked with concern: "What about his preferences?"
Rumi Nishijima was stunned and hesitated: "He doesn't smoke, he doesn't drink, and he doesn't go to entertainment venues...... I didn't find any particular liking for him. ”
"What about women?"
"I heard he has a girlfriend......"
"I heard?"
"I haven't seen it, but I overheard others talking about him having a girlfriend, but some people say that he is secretly dating Miss Murakami, but it seems to be ......" Rumi Nishijima was also not sure, and said hesitantly: "It doesn't seem to be true, I have never seen him call his girlfriend, and I have never answered his girlfriend's phone for him, and there are rumors between Miss Murakami, they are just partners with a very strong relationship, I can be sure that there is no love between men and women." ”
"What about female artists? He should have a lot of contact with these people. Nishijima asked carefully: "Those women are willing to do anything for the sake of the top." ”
"No, he was a very decent person, and there were actresses who offered him courtesy, and he looked like he was going to eat people. After Rumi Nishijima finished saying this, she remembered a few young actresses who shrank their heads under the direct gaze of Rin Chihara, and almost lost her laughter, but immediately felt that it was not good, and quickly added: "He talks very seriously to most people, and only talks and laughs with a few acquaintances...... His two disciples, he will be more relaxed when he is with his disciples. ”
Nishijima nodded repeatedly as he listened, but suddenly asked, "What about when I was with you?"
"Treat me like a member of the team, there's nothing to hide from me at work, and I've attended all the meetings he can attend. Rumi Nishijima was very sure: "Uncle, he is really good, the TV station entrusted him with the heavy responsibility of ratings competition, this is an absolutely wise decision, and I don't even believe that there is anyone in the Kanto United who can do better than him!"
Nishijima sighed, "Sounds like a great guy, but it's a pity ......" After a pause, he turned to ask, "What about his opinion of the Gotokyo faction?"
"Five Tokyo faction? I don't have an opinion, he seems to ...... It doesn't seem to care about the factions in the TV station.,It's even more like a cooperative relationship with Director Shiga.。 ”
Nishijima Xiong didn't expect to get such an answer, he was stunned, and fell directly into deep thought, while Nishijima Rumi hesitated and asked, "Uncle, what is it ...... you ask this?"
The factional struggle within the Kanto Union is not fierce, but this does not mean that there is no struggle, for example, her uncle and Shiga Ayumi are both deputy directors, and they may compete for the position of director in the future - this kind of competition is normal, and she can't help but let the director retire and work until death, but she doesn't want to let Chihara Rin get involved, at least she doesn't want her uncle to target Chihara Rinto, the number one general under Shiga Ayumi.
Of course, this is what she guessed, but she feels that the high-level competition for power and profit will always have to die a few cannon fodder below, and she doesn't want people like Rin Chihara to be cannon fodder.
Nishijima came back to his senses and smiled, "It's nothing, just ask...... Now Ayumi Shiga is putting all the treasures on him, and the budget for the next season has been fought for him, and he is watching it closely, I just can't do anything I want to, you don't have to be so suspicious. ”
Nishijima Rumi thought about it, smiled embarrassedly, and then couldn't help but raise her wrist and look at her watch, a little worried that Rin Chihara hadn't eaten properly, and Nishijima Yu immediately put the napkin on the table and said thoughtfully: "I want to have another drink, you have to go back first in a hurry...... Assist him well and learn more from him. Good for you in the future. ”
Rumi Nishijima really wanted to go back, so she immediately got up and responded, "Yes, that's rude, uncle!"
"I wish you all better ratings!" "Nishijima raised a glass to his niece, looked at the back of Nishijima Rumi who left in a hurry, and began to taste the wine slowly - it only took about 100 days to succeed in the rebellion? It is estimated that if it weren't for his niece, Bacheng would not have said anything today.
Isn't it charismatic? Sure enough, it's a great guy!
It's a pity that it's a person from Shiga Ayuki, if he can become his own person......
How nice that would be!
