"What? where did the passion play come from?" Krystal jumped off the couch with bare feet, and then found a mango-flavored pastry made by Zheng's mother in the refrigerator that she had stored for a long time, and then went back to the house, causing her mother to chase after her, telling her not to eat dessert at night, and then, even Baker got up and chased after him.

And the only person left in the living room, Jin Zhongming, is sitting on the sofa at the moment, his heart is full of satisfaction, when he can be moved by his work, some things really don't matter anymore.

"Youbothio. The mobile phone rang at an inopportune time, and Jin Zhongming casually pressed it open.

"Zhong Ming, have you been notified of the ratings?" Yin Eun-hye's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"No, what about you?" Jin Zhongming asked calmly.

"I didn't have either, that's why I felt weird. Yoon Eun-hye replied in a slightly anxious voice.

"Wait!" Kim thought for a moment, but didn't say anything constructive.

"That's all there is to it. Yin Eunhui had no choice but to sigh when she heard this.

Putting down the phone, Kim Jong Ming went directly to take a bath, because there was still a shooting task tomorrow, and he needed to rest as soon as possible. As for the issue of ratings, as he said before, he thinks that he Kim Jong Ming has done his best, in other words, he thinks that he has done his best, so at the moment he actually has no desire for ratings, that is, the attitude of 'obeying the destiny of heaven'.

It's just that he didn't know how strongly his mobile phone in the living room vibrated when he was sleeping!

Early the next morning. Kim Jong-ming didn't look at his phone. I tucked it into my trouser pocket. Then drove his own Hyundai to the set. However, as soon as he arrived on the set, he noticed something unusual.

First of all, there are a lot of reporters visiting the class today, and they came very early, and if it weren't for the fact that it is the usual practice of entertainment news not to interview early in the morning, it is estimated that these people would have pounced on it a long time ago. Secondly, everyone in the crew was beaming, and they saluted very respectfully when they saw him, and even Park Won-sook, a senior who usually doesn't talk much, greeted him with a smile.

"Zhong Ming is early, have you had breakfast? The kimchi cake on the crew's side is good. In the end, even Jin Changwan took the initiative to say hello to Jin Zhongming when he passed in front of him.

"That senior. "Kim Jong Ming is not a fool either. Naturally, you can guess what's going on. "Was last night's ratings high?"

"You don't know?" Jin Changwan asked in surprise. "The crew distributed the AGB national ratings to everyone half an hour after the episode was broadcast!"

"I went straight to sleep after watching TV. Jin Zhongming explained embarrassedly, and then took out his mobile phone, I don't know if I don't know it, I was shocked when I saw it, his mobile phone actually had dozens of missed text messages, the last time this situation occurred was when he nominated the actor and won the actor.

"I'll tell you directly!" Jin Changwan stood beside Jin Zhongming, and when he saw that he was embarrassed to reply to congratulatory text messages on the one hand, but on the other hand, he couldn't find the short message of the ratings, he was really a little invisible. "The AGB national rating was 36.9%, and at the last moment your OST came out as a male voice. Of course, the instant ratings of TNS reached 43%! Of course, the instant ratings were just a joke, but this week's "Chasing Jiangnan Mom" officially ended. No one is qualified to compete with us in this finale!"

Kim Changwan's meaning Kim Jong-myung certainly understands that the division of the success of Korean TV dramas is to look at the ratings, but there are many kinds of ratings themselves. However, when a TV series comes to this point, it has only one goal, that is, to make its single episode have the highest ratings of more than 40%, as long as it passes this hurdle, this TV series is a national TV series, and Kim Jong-myung, the leading actor, can write his name in the history of Korean TV dramas. So what if you can't pass this point? Then I'm sorry, "Coffee Prince No. 1 Shop" is still an 'excellent TV series', and you Jin Zhongming is still not qualified to criticize TV dramas.

And now, "Chasing Gangnam Mom", which has been carrying "Coffee Prince No. 1 Shop", is officially over, and KBS's "I Am a Teacher" is basically going to be scrapped to the end, and the opportunity has really come!

And when this opportunity was in front of him, in the wind of the summer morning, even Jin Zhongming, who thought he was very strong in his heart, was unbalanced. He doesn't know how strong "Coffee Prince No. 1 Shop" was in the previous life, and he doesn't know what his joining has brought to this TV series, but these are irrelevant at the moment, because the only thing he can do at the moment is to devote himself to the TV series. Of course, after he adjusted his mentality.

"Sister Eunhui, my heart is upset, I don't know what to do now?" Kim Jong-ming's first person for help was the person he knew most well on the set, but it was obvious that he had found the wrong person.

"My heart is more messed up than yours!" Yoon Eun-hye replied speechlessly. "The highest time in the last "Palace" was only 29%, I was already at a loss, this time it was 37%, and it was 3% short of the national TV series, and I was still counting on you to teach me what to do!"

"Let's nibble on two kimchi pies!" spoke at the critical moment by the 70-year-old veteran actor Kim Young-ok, who played Choi Han-jie's grandmother in the TV series. Then I went to talk to a reporter I knew well, and finally came back to read the script again. ”

"Oh!" Jin Zhongming instantly found the backbone.

In fact, when he finished nibbling on the kimchi cake that he rarely ate, his mind had calmed down, and he had even analyzed why he was out of balance.

First of all, this is his first TV series, and he even semi-publicly complained that he will not touch TV series for a long time in the future, which makes the meaning of this TV series clear to him.

Secondly, last night's ratings miracle was due to the temporary changes made by myself and Yoon Eun-hye, so the question is, do you still want to revise the screenwriter's plot in this last episode?

These two are the fundamental reasons for the stage fright of a person who has been an actor for eight years.

After thinking about it, Kim Jong-ming did not rush into work, but under the watchful eyes of the whole crew, he took Yoon Eun-hye to find the media with which he had the best relationship, that is, the reporter of the entertainment section of the Korea Financial News. In the face of this reporter, he made his two worries clear as they were, not for himself, but to help Yoon Eun-hye, who has similar ideas, relieve pressure.

"Mr. Jin Zhongming. Just as he was about to leave after pouring out the topic and pressure, the reporter stopped him. "Our editor-in-chief has been saying this lately that I would like to do an interview with you. ”

"Next month!" Jin Zhongming thought for a moment, but this time he did not refuse. "Wait until the "Gorgeous Vacation" thing is over. Thank you Yang Daxian, editor-in-chief, for my happy cooperation. ”

After the mood was relieved, Jin Zhongming regained his state, and he immediately held a special small-scale meeting, and at this moment he had made up his mind to fight rationally for the 3% ratings.

"First of all, there are some problems with the mood of the whole crew, the director is a new director, and most of the actors are newcomers in TV dramas, so I have to ask a few old-timers to work hard, walk around, and dilute the atmosphere. ”

"Don't worry. Kim Changwan, Kim Young-ok, and Park Won-sook nodded and agreed to this request.

"Secondly, don't worry, our TV series used to shoot two episodes a week, but this time we only need one episode a week, so everything is done step by step. The originally planned time and scene were filmed at that time, and there was no need to make adjustments. If you want to solve this problem, the Korean producer will ask you to implement it. Jin Zhongming's eyes swept over, and he felt that it was better to let Han Supervisor do his own work. "I mean, I don't want to see someone from MBC come over and say what is good to add drama, what is not good to reduce drama and so on, and I will take them away when they come. ”

"I understand what you mean, don't worry, and I have the authorization of the TV station, and the budget can be greatly increased this time. Producer Han replied without raising his head. "So the problem of the venue can be relaxed a little bit. ”

"Well, let's talk about the last and most important question. Kim Jong-ming set his sights on the main screenwriter Lee Jung-e. "There was something in the last episode that was the same as the previous one, and I wanted to be able to make a slight change. ”

Li Zheng'e breathed a sigh of relief at once, and the people present also looked at Jin Zhongming in surprise.

"I know what you mean, whoever messes around at this time will be responsible, I don't move the script, and in the end, it's still over 40%, then everyone is naturally happy, but what if it can't pass? In the same way, I moved the script, and I had to bear the final success or failure. As he spoke, Kim Jong-ming glanced at several core members of the crew present, from director Lee Yoon-jung to Li Yan, a supporting role with little acting skills. "So, I'm here to take responsibility, I Jin Zhongming is responsible for the success or failure of this TV series alone, as for you, just focus on your own work. And don't worry, I'll take the initiative to let the media know at noon. ”

Everyone gathered in the editorial room looked at Kim Jong-myung with complicated eyes, but no one, including Yoon Eun-hye and Lee Yoon-jung, dared to stand up and share this responsibility and honor.

"That's good!" Kim stood up. "Let's get to work!" (To be continued......)
