Chapter 39: Is It Black Powder?
Michiko's so-called "the newspapers are praising you" is a bit exaggerated, Chihara Rin looked for a long time in the newspaper before finding a tofu block, if you don't pay special attention to the drama "Wonderful Things in the World", it is estimated that it will be missed at a glance.
It's still not influential enough, and it can't be compared with the hot dramas in prime time.
However, he still watched it very seriously, the Internet has not been popularized in these years, and the newspaper has a very heavy voice power, so he needs to see what the media says about this drama.
The "Eastern United Economic News" he first read, this newspaper was originally specialized in economic news, but today it has developed into a comprehensive newspaper, with dozens of pages in its main journal, involving all aspects of the book -- it is said that the "Eastern Union Classic" has more than 30 kinds of magazines, periodicals and newspapers, a professional baseball team, a semi-professional baseball team, a professional football team, seven or eight publishing houses, and various industrial companies involved in the upstream and downstream of the printing industry, in fact, it should be regarded as a giant in the media industry.
In addition, he also holds a large number of shares in Tokyo Broadcasting TEB, and is one of the bosses behind Tokyo Broadcasting TEB.
This boss also takes good care of his subordinates, and in the life and entertainment section, he praised the new winter dramas that Tokyo has broadcast to TEB, including the first season of "Wonderful World Story", calling it a rare late-night drama in recent years, with five-star praise and full expectations.
In this small tofu block, it is full of beautiful words, especially pointing out the main creative screenwriter Rin Chihara, who thinks that he is quite thoughtful and has taken a new path for the development of late-night dramas, and looks forward to his further activity in the screenwriting industry.
Chihara Rin didn't take it to heart.,The words of the media.,The beacon dot symbol is almost the same.,If you pounce on it when you turn around.,In order to cater to readers.,The first to jump out and step on people.,It must be these guys - put a hundred hearts.,That's absolutely right.,The best thing the media is at is to beat themselves in the mouth.。
He mainly wants to see if the mainstream media has any bad comments on this drama, he has always been a little worried that he will not be able to adapt to the soil and water in such a mixed way, but after watching it carefully two or three times, probably everyone is an affiliated company, and the other party is merciful, which is really boasting, not mixed with words such as sarcasm.
He shook his head, ready to change the newspaper and take a look at it, this was not fair, but his eyes swept over the headline of the life and entertainment edition - the title of "The Most Promising New Drama of the Season: "Konosuke on the Field", and hesitated for a moment and looked at it by the way.
The page is at least ten times larger than them, and it is also a non-stop boast, and the praise is quite strong, basically the newspaper is suggesting: Everyone hurry up and chase this drama, this drama is super good-looking, you will regret it if you don't chase it!
The article is full of eye-catching words such as "Ryuji Terada's latest masterpiece", "Uchiyama Ukyo Supervision Efforts to Create", "Akai, Nagaoka, Satomi, Utsumi, Hasebe and other old popular actors co-starring", "Supernova Kubota, Izumi Kokuzaku Sengoku CP" and other eye-catching words, and there is an exclusive interview with Jiro Ishii with the hero and heroine, and there are large color stills of the male and female protagonists Ryuji Kubota and Yuko Izumi.
This propaganda is ...... Rin Chihara almost became depressed after only two glances.
People, it's a lie to say that he is not red-eyed, if this publicity condition can be given to him, he doesn't have to rack his brains to fool Murakami and Fujii Asahi into making some efforts, just wait for the word-of-mouth to ferment naturally.
But he just blushed a little, such a strong publicity, definitely beyond the category of "the boss takes care of his subordinates", there must be something greasy in it, nine times out of ten, the kid from Ishii did something in it - this kind of thing is normal in the entertainment industry, and ordinary viewers can still believe it.
This person does have some means, no wonder Iori Murakami is about the same as Iori Murakami, I can't get this kind of soft advertising Murakami Iori alone - this can't be blamed on Iori Murakami, she has been in the industry for five or six years, but basically it's all the identity of an assistant, people won't look at her more seriously, and now in the field of producers, she is a pure newcomer, without extensive contacts and channels, which is completely understandable.
It will get better slowly, a team, the companion is not active enough by me to spur, the companion's lack by me to make up, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility has never been the second line in the middle - to achieve the goal is the most important, you don't care who contributes more and who contributes less, what to do? Do things, for a good result, not for the sake of saving effort, this logic can not be mistaken! Of course, the more effort, to take more afterwards, this is also a matter of course.
He fell into thinking there again - in addition to the quality of the TV series, publicity is the most important, otherwise there is a great possibility of "applause or not"? But the producer has tried his best, but now the publicity just can't keep up, so in addition to trying to get idols to participate, what other way can reverse this unfavorable situation?
Think, think hard, there are always more ways than problems!
He thought about it there for a while, but he didn't come up with it, and planned to go home at night and continue thinking about it against the wall, and then changed to a newspaper - the "Eastern Union Classic" has little reference value.
The top newspapers have associated TV stations, and other newspapers are basically the same as the "Eastern Union Classic", and the program that catches their own TV station is one word: praise!
After all, people who read newspapers are not mentally retarded, and talking nonsense is certainly harmful to the authority and fairness of newspapers.
Chihara Rin rummaged through it and found that most of the life and entertainment editions in other newspapers also mentioned "Wonderful Things of the World", which were also small tofu blocks, and they were one size smaller than the tofu blocks of "Eastern Union Sutra", but he spoke fairly, in addition to praising the novelty of the script and the sincerity of the shooting, he also pointed out that most of the actors were not very good, and the unknown little actors who played "Miho" could make people shine, and the rest of the acting skills could only be said to be so-so.
There is also a family that doesn't know what kind of illness he has committed, and dragged Takeda Ichima out for criticism, and he also talked about the clumsy performance in his last work, and one family seems to like "Shiqi" very much, and reported his real name "Chihara Rinto", thinking that if he can maintain the same level for a year, he can have another work on the prime time, and there is a great hope of competing for the best newcomer screenwriter award in 95.
It's not so strange to be found to be a newcomer, Rin Chihara, the TV station leaks like a sieve, gossip is flying all over the sky, even if all his personal information is in the newspaper tomorrow, he won't be surprised, but he looks left and right, he just didn't find a bad review, the star ratings of the drama are basically four stars (recommended to watch), and there is even a five-star (must-see), so this is what to say......
The mainstream media doesn't seem to have any opinion on this drama?
As for those star evaluations, don't take them to heart, he has to look for a long time for this special thing, and such a small tofu block doesn't even match a photo, it's a fart!
But it's okay, it's good news, it can speed up the accumulation of a little word-of-mouth, and it can make the snowball roll faster.
He was relieved, so he was a little idle to look at the details of the current winter drama season battle - it has nothing to do with him at all, the night drama belongs to the eight-line remote battlefield, and the TV stations have not invested any resources here, basically belonging to the high mountain standing guard or VIP viewing seat.
Now that the season has just begun, the main programs of various TV stations have not yet been exhausted, but they have already started, and the curtain has begun for the entire winter war.
Chaoyue TV has the best response so far, and its nine-o'clock series won yesterday's ratings championship, but it is only an old drama of the third season - an average rating of 19.8%.
Tokyo Broadcasting followed closely behind, and the new drama "Konosuke on the Field" in the 8 o'clock file won the runner-up - with an average rating of 18.77%, and it could take the championship down at any time.
Mt. Fuji TV did not make a main show yesterday, but it won the third place with the veteran 15-minute morning drama - an average rating of 15.7%.
The same is true for Sakurajima TV, their main theater is not yesterday, they are still standing still, and they won the fourth place with their veteran continuous variety show.
NHK fell in fifth place, but said it didn't matter, they ate the national meal, they had all kinds of programs, and they were all mediocre, and they had long been used to it - they were mainly engaged in news, and their main job was to scold the government, and there was relatively little entertainment content, and it was not until the election season that the ratings suddenly soared.
Then there were these five companies on the list, and finally a new name appeared in the twelfth place, the Kanto United Television Station that formed its own Kanto regional broadcasting network, but the response to the program was not very good, and many drama critics were saying that they were hopeless - spend more time on producing programs, and don't spend all day on TV shopping to make money.
Rin Chihara probably watched it and had a general understanding of the current ratings competition situation - the average rating of 2.27% in the opening season of "Shiqi" did not even make it to the hit list, it was really miserable, and he was not even worthy of participating in the war as cannon fodder.
However, he found an interesting thing, except for the newspaper "Donglian Jing", which praised "Konosuke on the Field", other newspapers had a little opinion on this drama, and even one column was particularly fierce, only giving this drama one and a half stars - the original words are like this: "One star for Mr. Terada, half a star for Superintendent Uchiyama, this drama has been promoted for so long, and the result is very disappointing." ”
Is it black powder?
Rin Chihara carefully read the drama review and found that this drama critic has a good style and an excellent article, but he doesn't seem to be an insider, although he is desperately attacking the show for not being good-looking, but he can't understand why it's not good-looking, it's plausible, it's more like the fans are out of control.
He was curious, and carefully looked at the various reviews of "Konosuke on the Field", and found that the other comments were polite, just hinting that the first episode looked a bit flat, and the protagonist was not eye-catching enough, but at the same time he expressed confidence in the screenwriter and director, this drama should still be chased, and now it is calm and contains an explosion, and the future will definitely not disappoint.
Looking at it this way, that column is probably a black fan, Chihara Rin put down the newspaper and stopped paying attention to it - any work is scolded, which is normal, but it doesn't affect anything, just with the ratings of 18.77% of the first episode, this can already straighten the waist, and the results of the first episode show that the audience base is so good that it explodes, as long as the quality can be maintained, not to mention doubling the ratings in the future, there is still hope for trying to touch the 30% side.
This is already a sign of a national hot drama, and even if its own 2.27% triples, it will be a cannon fodder at most, don't want to be in the limelight.
It's a bit of a dirty start to get started!
"Master, you're in the newspaper, why aren't you happy?" Michiko had actually been observing Chihara Rinto, she regretted a little that she had just shown her resentment, and was ready to wait for him to be happy, and then congratulate him, but she didn't expect Chihara Rin to finish reading it, and her eyebrows were twisted together, and she even looked a little worried.
She thinks it doesn't make sense, ordinary people can be in the newspaper, and they are praised, how can this be laughed at.
This unlucky child has no interest in Chihara Rinren, and Chihara Rin doesn't have to hide anything when she talks to her, and sighs really: "There's nothing to be happy about, I wasn't polite before, this result is really mediocre." ”
If you are unlucky enough to be struck by lightning and lose your girlfriends, will you change to a rating that is not even worthy of being cannon fodder?
Michiko was even more strange, "Is it normal? My mother said that it was already good, and asked me to please you more." ”
Rin Chihara couldn't help but laugh, "Will you please me?"
"Yes, or you'll drive me away. ”
Rin Chihara shook his head and said with a smile: "Stay in peace, don't do anything superfluous, you can stay here for a short time." ”
After a pause, he asked curiously, "Will you still pretend to be stupid at the next audition?"
