Chapter Eighty-Seven: Repercussions

On the second day in North America, the media at work suddenly found that everyone was talking about the TV series "The Story of the Emergency Room", and after inquiring curiously, they were shocked to find that the TV series with the highest ratings was actually the TV series that everyone was talking about.

The data of "ER Story", which ranked first in the TV series ratings, was exposed, and was reported by the media, attracting the attention of advertisers.

In order to get the headline ad for "The Story of the Emergency Room," the advertisers who came to compete for the advertising space were arranged by Frank Marshall, and five advertisers were offered the opportunity to broadcast commercials, bringing in $2 million in revenue for Asuka Films.

Frank Marshall was surprised by the fact that some advertisers who didn't get the commercial suddenly spotted "The Ellen Show," which was about to air during the day.

Since the 80s of the 20th century, talk shows have become a major fashion for the audience, and their influence on society cannot be low, and all kinds of talk shows account for 40% of the total number of TV programs.

Daytime talk shows are programs that are broadcast during the day, and the main audience comes from housewives, unemployed people and other people.

Although Frank Marshall is still unclear about the ratings and impact of "The Ellen Show" after it aired, it did not prevent him from negotiating a revenue with advertisers who broadcast commercials in the presence of Fields.

Got the commercial video provided by the advertiser, and the first episode of the first season of "The Ellen Show" began to be broadcast on Bird TV, and the first guest, Lesterore, attracted fans to watch.

The host of the talk show, Alan DeJanness, has been praised for her humorous and light-hearted hosting style.

After the 12-minute talk show was played, Frank Marshall also got the ratings data report, looked at the report with a detailed record of 2 million ratings, and told Leicester the ratings with a happy face.

The 2 million ratings may not be comparable to TV, but in daytime talk shows, it is one of the highest ratings.

The success of "The Ellen Show" and "ER Story" made Nok TV begin to attract media attention, and in order to promote the ratings behind "ER Story", Lester arranged a press conference.

George Clooney, who plays the protagonist in the play, has attracted much attention, not like becoming Tom Cruise's companion in "Top Gun", but a real fire.

In this press conference, director Rob Holcombo needed to shoot the later episodes of "ER" and did not give an interview, and George Clooney, who attracted much attention, and Anthony Edwards, the other protagonist, were interviewed by entertainment reporters on behalf of the entire crew.

The director and other actors didn't come, and the reporter felt that it was very okay, and being able to interview George Clooney, who had recently caught fire, made them feel that this trip was worth it.

Although Anthony Edwards was also interviewed by entertainment reporters, the two came to the press room, and a group of entertainment reporters gathered in front of George Clooney, holding the microphone to interview, but was stopped by the staff.

A few will interview Anthony Edwards.

"Tell them well, and answer them in the same official way as before. The assistant assigned to George Clooney reminded;

"I know. George Clooney looked at the entertainment reporter who was stopped by the staff and nodded cautiously.

"Everyone asks one question at a time, don't crowd. Under the release of the staff, entertainment reporters rushed up to interview the two.

The sudden fire, George Clooney was in a trance, facing the reporter's interview, which reminded him of what Lester said at the time, and with a confident smile on his face, he answered the questions of the entertainment reporter.

"I was honored to be cast as the lead role in ER. ”

"If you work with director Rob Holcombo, will he be difficult to get along with and be strict with you actors!"

"No, we are all newcomers, not much age difference, and we are very happy to work together, just like a big family in the emergency room, natural and friendly. ”

"I heard that the protagonist of "The Story of the Emergency Room" was personally assigned by Mr. Leicester to play the role, is it because you are an artist from his agency team that he will directly let you play it?"

"You're going to ask Mr. Leicester. ”

George Clooney was interviewed by every reporter, as early as when he was on the crew of "Top Gun", he was taken by Lester to deal with reporters many times, and he was already in a state of unchanged face to answer questions from entertainment reporters.

"This actor has such a temperament, Lester is too good at picking people, and he looks like a guy with potential. The whispers of the entertainment reporters after the interview reached George Clooney's ears.

There were basically no bad words, all of them were to the point, which made George Clooney feel relieved.

After the entertainment reporter's interview, George Clooney and Anthony Edwards returned to the "ER" crew to continue filming.

During the interview, the words of the two men were written in newspapers and entertainment news by entertainment reporters.

Bird Film and Television, in the office, Lester received good news from Emmanuel, "The Lord of the Rings Trilogy" After more than two months of wandering, it finally got the film adaptation rights and peripheral rights, and under the leadership of Fields, the two parties have signed a cooperation contract.

"What are you writing about. Emmanuel sat across from Leicester and talked about winning the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, and when he saw Lester answering his words while writing something, he asked curiously;

"Write TV scripts. Lester replied without raising his head;

The ratings of "ER Story" were successful, and Lester began to write a TV script, planning for future episodes to be broadcast on Asuka TV.

"TV script, what's the name. ”

Emmanuel was interested;

He is now beginning to look forward to every script and book written by Lester, and the script and book written by the other party in the past year and a half have not failed, just like the success of "The Story of the ER" has allowed him to see a new star growing on the road.

"Beach Rescue. ”

Lester's words made Emmanuel vent slightly, and said complainingly: "This name is too vulgar." ”

"It's vulgar indeed, but it's also durable. Lester agreed with Emmanuel's words, wrote the last stroke, rubbed his sore neck and said, "It's finally finished." ”

"I'll take a look. Emmanuel picked up the "Baywatch" script and watched it.

"The beach was a good idea. ”

A group of countless handsome guys and beauties in swimsuits, and the beautiful scenery by the sea.

After reading it, Emmanuel came to a few simple conclusions, twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "Are you sure this is a TV script, not a script that you wrote yourself to go to the beach." ”

"I'm sure it's a TV script. Lester said solemnly;

"Well, hopefully he'll make it. Looking at Lester's serious eyes, he could only reluctantly believe Lester's words,

This "Beach Rescue" will be the next year's production on Asuka TV, but it will not be broadcast immediately, and the broadcast in 1986 is basically full.

Lester got this side done, finished his performance on "Weekend Night Live" at Robert Downey Jr., and got on a plane back to England to continue filming "Chaplin".
