Chapter 693: Fire!
Sony Pictures & Television.
After listening to Inamori's report, Shuiichi Minamino frowned, he never thought that no TV station would be willing to buy the variety show "Run, Star"!
"Are they receptive to our innovative variety show or are they dissatisfied with our work?" asked Shuichi Minamino.
"Yes, because variety shows were invented by us, they have never seen them, and they are skeptical of the demand of the market. The second is that after watching our variety shows, they don't recognize our variety shows very much, they feel that such variety shows will not have any ratings at all, and they would rather not buy such works. I'm afraid of affecting the reputation of their TV station. Inamori replied.
These days, he is running around, and no TV station has given him a good look anyway.
"That's really troublesome, if our variety show can't be on the TV station, it's useless at all. Shuichi Minamino frowned.
"Chairman, I think we can only continue to look for TV stations to see if any TV stations are willing to buy our programs. Inamori said.
"Well, I'll leave this matter to you. At that time, we don't have to quote too high, after all, if we can't sell it, we can sell it at a lower price. Now the main thing is to let our program be on the TV station first, and then we can negotiate the price with the TV station if our program has a good reputation. Remember, if we sell our programs at a low price, Xianhe TV will sign up for the first two or three episodes. After these episodes are released, look at word-of-mouth, if word-of-mouth explodes, our fourth and subsequent issues can be sold at a good price. At that time, there will be countless advertisers who will come to us......" Shuichi Minamino instructed Inamori.
"Got it, Mr. Chairman!" Inamori nodded.
Next, Inamori continued to go to other TV stations to promote the variety show "Running Star".
In the end, the hard work paid off, and one TV station was willing to buy the program "Running Star". This TV station is Fukuoka TV. This TV station is not as strong as the island country, but it is okay.
But the price of the other party's bid to buy "Running Star" is pitiful, and this salary is estimated to not even be half of the shooting cost! That is to say, if it continues at this price, the Sony company of Shuichi Minamino in the first season will definitely lose money.
However, in the end, Shuichi Minamino agreed that Inamori would sell this to Fukuoka TV. Anyway, at present, I am selling the broadcast copyright of the first two issues to the other party, and when the time comes, I will play the two issues to see if the effect is. If he could, he would have to sit on the ground and raise the price for the third installment.
The first two episodes have been put on and played here, the third episode has also been recorded, and the fourth episode is also ready to start.
Everything is going according to plan, just to see what kind of effect "Run Star" will bring on TV.
In fact, Shuichi Minamino is not very sure whether "Run, Star" can get good results at present. After all, it was 1961, and he didn't dare to pack a ticket. If it's cold on the air, then it's a bit of a pain.
TV Fukuoka plans to broadcast "Let's Run Star" every Saturday at 10 p.m. Broadcast one episode a week! Originally, Fukuoka TV was reluctant to buy the variety show "Running Star". But they saw that there were seven A-list stars in it, and at the same time, they suppressed the price at which the other party sold it at will. In the end, they chose to buy it.
However, they still didn't think much of this kind of show, so it started at ten o'clock. Because 7 o'clock to 10 o'clock in the evening is definitely the prime time to play. Of course, such a good time period will not be the turn of "Run Star". So it's good to leave it until 10 o'clock and play it until 12 o'clock. If only other programs were to be left until midnight.
Although it premiered at ten o'clock, this point is neither early nor late, and some viewers will watch it at this point.
Ji Xiang is a white-collar worker, and she usually goes to bed at ten o'clock. But tonight she's going to stay up a little bit. Because she wants to watch "Run, Star".
To be honest, the new term variety show is the first time she has heard of it in her world, and she doesn't know what the hell this show is. But it's enough to have her favorite name in it!
She had seen the pre-premiere advertisement of this show before, saying that there were seven big names in it as members, and one of them was a popular idol she liked. So she's going to take a look tonight, and she'll keep chasing it if it's good!
At ten o'clock in the evening, Fukuoka TV officially broadcast "Let's Run Star", which opened with the gathering of seven first-line star members, and then began to attract three celebrity guests. Then the various mini-game competitions begin......
Among them, all kinds of jokes, all kinds of complaints, all kinds of mutual fights, just like that, there is a joke......
"Wow~ My idol is so handsome...... He's got a lot of humor!"
To be honest, it didn't take long for Ji Xiang to be attracted by "Running Star" and was deeply intoxicated. She originally came to see this show for her idol. But looking at it, I was deeply conquered by this variety show!
Because it's so good-looking, so funny, so new!
Takeda, like Ji Xiang, came to watch this show with a star-chasing mentality, because there was a goddess in his heart.
At this time, he was watching the show intently, and he had been looking for the figure of his goddess.
He thinks this "Running Star" is very interesting, ordinary stars either act in movies or hold concerts, and there are few bits and pieces of their usual lives. But this "Running Star" is different, it seems to be able to show another state in the lives of various stars, and they usually can't see their characteristics.
He thinks this kind of outdoor reality show is really good!
It's like which goddess he likes, she usually belongs to a relatively cold goddess, high up. But now in "Let's Run Star", it is very lively, and at the same time, there are some eccentrics and eccentrics, who have become the wisdom of the team.
"What kawaii, so smart! Sure enough, it's my goddess!" Takeda found himself in love with the show.
Anyway, with the premiere of "Running Star", most of the first batch of viewers went to this show with their favorite stars.
Some viewers are night owls, and they plan to continue watching TV before they go to bed, so they are watching "Run, Star".
However, because this show is a new type of program, it still belongs to the proud work of the 21st century. I don't know how many times better its quality is than the shows of this era.
These people watched it for a while and were deeply attracted by the content of this show.
What is the purpose of watching TV? It's just to pass the time, relax yourself, and it's a pastime anyway.
And "Run, Star" all met this requirement.
Relaxed, funny, entertaining, and hardworking, a little chicken soup for the soul from time to time. It's definitely a good variety show.
The first episode was finished after more than an hour.
There are really a lot of people watching, although the data is not very obvious, but the ratings are actually not bad!
The next day, the ratings came out.
It has reached 3.1% of the national total!
It was ranked third among many TV dramas and programs on Fukuoka TV, and 23rd among various film and television programs nationwide!
Fukuoka TV headquarters.
Several high-level meetings are underway.
They didn't pay much attention to the start of "Running Star" last night, but they had to pay attention to it after the ratings came out this morning. Because this show doesn't have any strong advertising, it's still a show they don't like. But last night's premiere ratings actually ranked third on their Fukuoka TV!
And this replay is also watched by many people, and even more and more people are watching the replay!
This situation made these high-level executives a little stunned.
"I didn't expect that we weren't very optimistic about "Run, Star", but its ratings were so good! But when we bought the broadcast rights of this show, the price was really low, and we earned it!" said a senior executive with a smile.
"Yes, since the ratings of this show are not bad, then we have to broadcast some advertisements on this program to maximize the revenue......"
…………
Ji Xiang watched the replay again the next night, and after watching it, she still looked hesitant.
"Oh, this variety show only airs once a week, it's so slow, I can't wait!" Ji Xiang was depressed in her heart.
Not only her, but other viewers who have seen it are like this.
In the past few days, all kinds of hot remarks about "Running Star" have been around.
For example, Tokyo Entertainment News: A few days ago, "Let's Run Star" was broadcast on Fukuoka TV, and the ratings actually ranked third, and the national ratings also reached nearly 20! At present, the ratings are still rising......
It is said that "Running Star" is a brand new show, it is called - variety show, variety show is......
Variety shows were invented by Sony's film and television division......
Fukuoka Entertainment News: Recently, "Let's Run Star" has become popular, and the seven members in it all have their own characteristics, such as You Sakura Kanako belongs to the eccentric genius family, and Ayakoji Kaoru belongs to the cute and simple-minded family......
In addition to the above, there are many newspapers that report on the funny, complaining, and all kinds of jokes in "Let's Run, Star". Of course, there are those who praise and follow this show, and there are those who slander this show.
Some so-called people began to denigrate the games in "Let's Run, Star" as too childish and not suitable for adults to play, or that the show was too fake or something. Or that this show is according to the script, and it is not good-looking.
