Chapter 747: Summer Dark Horse
The white horse passes through the gap, the pace of time, never stops half a step for anyone in this world.
Unconsciously, the breath of summer has hit the neon people.
Entering July, the summer files of many TV stations are also appearing one after another.
For example, Fuji's "Moon-Nine" drama "Rich Men and Poor Women", NTV's "Water Ten" drama "Special National Tax Collector", and the Asahi Konjiu drama, "Omotesando High School Choir", which has attracted much attention before it was broadcast!
As the first drama series written by Kiyoshi Sakamoto as a TV drama writer, "Omotesando High School Choir Club" not only has Rena Noeni, Masaki Sugata , Kento Yamazaki, Mai Shiraishi and other popular people, but also has the blessing of Kiyoshi Sakamoto, which is destined to become the most watched TV series in the summer of 2012!
Judging from TV Asahi's behavior of putting "Omotesando High School Choir Club" in prime time, TV Asahi undoubtedly has great confidence in Kiyoshi Sakamoto and the show.
As the broadcast time gradually approached, the public's attention was focused on the second Golden Day in July.
It was the day of the premiere of "Omotesando High School Choir Club".
。。。。。。
School dramas have always been an excellent starting point for the best actors.
In recent years, the number of campus dramas is not large, but there are still several excellent works of high quality and attention.
Among them, the "Birth Tetralogy", which made Ruoshou popular and began to be well-known to the audience, is the most talked-about.
In Japan, the word "birth" means to get ahead and rise to prominence.
And the "Birth Tetralogy" refers to the four campus works that have been highly praised in the past two years: "Confession", "Suzuki Sensei" and "I Heard that Kirishima is going to retire" and "Those Years"
These four works with a campus background have allowed many Ruoshou actors to get the opportunity to practice while also getting the attention of the audience.
Especially in "I Heard that Kirishima is going to retire", newcomers such as Ai Hashimoto, Ryunosuke Kamiki, Riho Yoshioka, and Mai Shiraishi became popular in one fell swoop.
Of course, as the most eye-catching one, it is naturally Reina Nengnian, who is about to play the prime-time starring role for the first time in "Omotesando High School Choir Club" and became famous in one fell swoop with "Those Years"!
Not to mention, other familiar names in the play: Sugata Masaki, Kento Yamazaki, Mai Shiraishi, Riho Yoshioka...
All the roles in the whole drama of "Table High" are all played by SMA's actors.
However, SMA is not afraid of the audience complaining, "This is an SMA drama".
After all, the purpose of making this drama was originally to promote these people under his banner.
Fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, such a truth, no matter where it is, is very common.
What's more, as long as the script and the actors' acting skills are not so bad, then, even if you look at the faces of these youthful little fresh meats, as well as the popularity effect of Kiyoshi Sakamoto, the ratings of "Omoto High" will definitely not be low!
。。。
July 13, 10:30 p.m.
In Osaka, 550 kilometers away from Tokyo, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was sitting on a chair and chatting with Yui Aragaki while waiting for the next scene, received a phone call.
"It's Ishida-san, and the ratings are out. ”
Taking the phone from the assistant's hand, Kiyoshi Sakamoto put it to his ear, "How is it?"
On the other end of the phone, there was a voice from the agent's uncle, who was a little excited but couldn't hide the vicissitudes of life.
"Guess what the ratings of the first episode were?"
"20?" Sakamoto deliberately quoted a very high number.
“。。。 ”
On the other end of the phone, there was silence for a while, and then he spoke again: "Are you kidding? How can there be a TV series with ratings of more than 20 now?!"
"Obviously you made me guess... Sakamoto said with a smile, "I have great confidence in my TV series, can't I?"
"I... "Uncle Ishida on the other end is a little angry.
"Hahaha... Smiling, Kiyoshi Sakamoto was still born to comfort the resentful Uncle Ishida, "Okay, okay, okay, I won't tease you, tell me." ”
"Live ratings for the first episode... ”
“11%!”
"Oh. It's not bad... Although the mouth is so lightly written, Yui Aragaki who was sitting next to him found that the corners of someone's mouth were slightly raised.
Obviously, his heart is more than what it seems ...
In these years, in the era when the ratings of TV dramas are declining, the ratings can exceed 10%, which is considered good.
What's more, this is a campus youth drama, and it is not the favorite drama type of the main housewives in the ratings...
Therefore, being able to pass 10% has already met Kiyoshi Sakamoto's minimum requirements for this drama, and it is even a little higher than the expectation...
In fact, if you remove the choral elements in the play, then the story structure of "Omotesando High School Choir Club" is not significantly different from other hot-blooded campus dramas.
The plot is also relatively simple: in order to save her parents' marriage, she likes to sing in chorus, and an ordinary female high school student who transferred from Kagawa Prefecture to Omotesando High School, Kagawa, after transferring to this "famous high school" that once had a super choir club, only to find that the choir club that had won numerous awards had existed in name only in the school, and even the former choir club members were divided into small groups in the class to be "outside the circle".
In order to find the legendary musical score and save the love between his parents who are facing divorce, Kagawa begins to try to resurrect the choir club with all his might.
In the process of gathering the members, Kagawa also encountered bullying from members of the active small group of the "First Army".
And the instructor who has a sad past, on the surface, is not interested in guiding activities, and has to charge for arranging and writing music scores for students, but in fact, he is moved by Kagawa's enthusiasm for reviving the choir's activities, and does his best to do what he can...
Solving the various knots of the students in the class one by one and absorbing them into the choir to work together is actually an ordinary campus drama model.
However, after adding the choral element, the play became very different from ordinary campus dramas.
This time, the "Omotesando High School Choir Club" positions the choir as a youthful and energetic style, and selects a variety of classic choral repertoire and the most popular popular songs for adaptation, cheering for the students who have fallen into the trough.
Coupled with a very good-looking cast, the audience who has both visual and auditory enjoyment naturally has continuous praise for this drama.
Good word-of-mouth is also reflected in the data, that is, the ratings.
From 11% of the first episode, to 13% of the second episode, and then to the fifth episode of more than half of the plot, breaking through 15%, the ratings of "Omotesando High School Choir" continued to climb under the applause of everyone, and after the broadcast of the sixth episode, with a real-time rating of 17%, it became the ratings champion in the same period!
This campus youth drama without the participation of big names, in the bleak and boring summer file, the Asahi Golden Nine drama "Omotesando High School Choir Club", which attracted much attention before the broadcast, has become a dark horse in the summer file with its classic campus theme and novel choir elements!
This made Sakamoto Kiyoshi, who was far away in Osaka, also breathe a sigh of relief.
This is SMA's first step into TV drama production, and it is also the most important step in SMA's plan to promote its artists.
A good start is half the battle.
In this way, SMA's co-production with other TV stations also allows SMA to move more than just movies...
