"In the last few episodes, our ratings are not as good as before, as a person in charge of this area, I also know that everyone must have worked the show, but we still need to find a way to solve the problem of ratings, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the above, right?" As the deputy director of the variety show bureau of MBC TV's main hall, Yuan Gaojun said in a deep voice with a sad face, and reached out and knocked on the table as he spoke.

"Director Yuan, we all know what you said, isn't this also busy with new topics and themes recently, and the change of the program will not be able to achieve results overnight." Shin Jung-so, the chief PD of MBC TV's talk variety show "Let's Play", explained after considering the language.

"Let's Play", as a variety show that has been on the air for nearly three years, has undergone three revisions so far, and the effect is quite good, but recently due to the collision of schedules on the variety shows of the other two TV stations, especially KBS TV, the ratings will inevitably decline, so I want to produce a few episodes of explosive programs to bring back the audience's attention, but the results are very small, which is why Shin Jung-so was called by Won Gaojun, deputy director of the Variety Show Bureau, today.

Don't look at "Let's Play" is just a late-night talk show, but it is also a must for the three major TV stations on the schedule of late night on Monday, and the ratings of "Let's Play" have been stable at more than 10% since the date of its premiere, this number is neither high nor low, and when encountering a special feature that the audience is interested in or a special starring a big-name star, the ratings will even skyrocket to more than 15%, directly topping the first place in the ratings of the late-night segment on Monday.

However, due to the fact that KBS TV and SBS TV put a lot of effort into the late night segment on Monday, the ratings of the recent episodes of "Let's Play" are significantly less than those of the previous period, and the ratings of some episodes of the program have even fallen by less than 10%, which makes Shin Jung-so, who is the chief PD of the program, feel a little disgraceful on his face, after all, it is the program in his hand. The ratings are equivalent to their own continuity, and the ratings are naturally a little embarrassing when the ratings are low.

"I heard that KBS TV is also planning to do a talk show, although it may not conflict with our program schedule, but with comparison and comparison, the differences and shortcomings in the program will naturally lose part of the audience, which is what you need to focus on next!" Yuan Gaojun specially advised.

Shin Jung-so nodded to show that he understood. Then he got up and said goodbye to him, "Director Yuan, if there is nothing to do, then I will leave first." ”

"Go ahead, go back and report to me the revision plan of the show as soon as possible, and in addition, there are some new ideas in the content of the last few episodes, such as what the audience in front of the TV likes to watch, and what they are paying attention to recently, which can be used as the theme of the program. This is your specialty, so when you go back, you need to put some thought into it. ”

"Yes!" Shin Jung-so nodded vigorously, as if not being able to show his determination at all.

"Alright, let's go back quickly."

Under Won Go-joon's urging, Shin Jung-so left the office, and when he left, he reached out and closed the door by the way.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Back in the office area of their show, everyone saw that their big boss was back, and they hurried forward to inquire about the situation one by one. As soon as I got to work this morning, I heard that my big boss was called away by Director Yuan, who was in charge of variety shows, as a staff member of the "Let's Play" column group. How can they rest assured, as members of the column group, they naturally know the ratings of their own programs in recent years, if they can be summed up in one word, it may be the legendary 'miserable'.

The ratings of the show are not good, and the big boss was called away by the director of the variety show bureau, no matter how you look at it, I think it's a bad thing. The worst result is naturally that the show is cut, but everyone still has a trace of expectation in their hearts, after all, there are still quite a lot of audiences for "Let's Play", although the ratings of the recent episodes are a little sluggish, but no one dares to guarantee that the ratings of the subsequent episodes will not rise!

"Brother Jeong-so! You're back? What did Director Yuan say? I saw Shin Jung-so from afar. Everyone immediately stepped forward to greet them, and before Shin Jung-so walked in front of him, everyone asked with concern.

"It's okay, it's okay! Let's all go back to our seats. Shin Jung-su couldn't help but be a little moved when he saw the many colleagues who were worried about him in front of him, where could he still be joking at such a time, "Director Yuan just asked me to go over to learn about the recent situation of the program and the column group, and he didn't talk too much about the ratings, so what everyone needs is to calm down and do a good job in the program, and other chores don't need to think about it." ”

"Brother Jeong-so, the theme of our recording tomorrow has not yet been decided, do we need to discuss tomorrow's program?" Someone reminded.

Hearing the words of his subordinates, Shin Jung-so remembered that he was patronizing the issue of the revision of the show, and the latest episode of the show would need to be recorded tomorrow, but until now, he has not decided on the theme on his side, which is a bit sad, and when he thinks of this, Shin Jung-so only feels that his head is getting bigger and bigger.

"What, let's stop what we're doing and come to Conference Room 1 for a meeting!" Under Shin Jung-so's order, everyone hurriedly picked up the pen and Ben followed behind Shin Jung-so to the conference room and sat down, and it was the time for the most familiar 'brainstorming'.

Each issue of "Let's Play" has a different theme, and different guests will be invited according to different themes, for example, there was a previous issue called "Autumn Special", the opening remarks were directly "We are together with those 30-year-old stars who have gone through the 10-year-old impermanence and the 20-year-old youth and finally ushered in the peak of popularity", and that episode of the show invited star artists with a multinational 30-year-old threshold.

So this time is no exception, the column group must first select the theme scope of the program, and then select the guests according to the theme of the program, which is also considered for the recording of the program, with the theme there is room for the host to play, just like the proposition composition and divergent composition, it must be the proposition composition to be better written.

"Brother Jeong-so. What about the theme of the twentieth generation of young artists? Soon someone raised their hands, "Recently, there have been a few very popular combinations in the circle, we dare not say that all of them have been invited, but it's okay to invite four or five to do a show, right?" ”

However, hearing this proposal, before Shin Jung-so said it, others expressed doubts about the final presentation of the show. "Although young audiences must love to watch this kind of special, but we are responsible for the presentation of the show, since we are newcomers, then there must not be too much contact with the arts, although the two main MCs of our show, Liu Zaishi xi and Jin Yuanxixi, have very good on-the-spot response skills, but such a talk show can't be made into a rescue show, right? Then the show will not give the artist a score but an Anti, which will definitely not work! ”

Shin Jung-so, who was on the side, nodded after listening to this explanation, after all, the purpose of the artist's agency to let the artist participate in the show is to promote the artist, and if such a show does not have the purpose of promoting the artist. Then this kind of show must not be on it, Shin Jung-so doesn't want the signboard of "Come and Play" to be destroyed in his own hands.

"Do you have any other good ideas?" Shin Jung-so looked at everyone's expressions as he spoke, but everyone's expressions looked a little dignified, it seems that because of the recent sluggish ratings of the show, everyone has been a lot more cautious, and the new special is naturally good, but everyone really can't guarantee the ratings.

"So do you know what news the audience is paying attention to lately?" Shin Jung-so asked again.

"News to follow?" It seems that Shin Jung-so's words opened a breakthrough for everyone, and only a few writers immediately fell into deep thought. "How about a weight loss special? Isn't everyone on the Internet talking about that magical diet tea recently? Losing weight has always been the most concerned point for ladies, especially the female artists in the circle. The weight loss special is sure to catch the audience's attention. ”

"I think it's very good to do a spring special, doesn't it mean that spring has arrived, invite some handsome men and women to talk about their first love, or talk about their ideal type, the effect of such a gossip-type program special must be good." Someone immediately came up with a different idea, and that's the benefit of brainstorming. There are so many things that can be thought of according to one point, and Shin Jung-so on the side is concentrating on recording these new and interesting ideas in his notebook.

"Anything else?" Shin Jung-so asked again.

"Isn't "Lao Qian" quite popular recently? The number of moviegoers has exceeded three million, and if the crew of "Lao Qian" can be invited to our studio, then the ratings will definitely be high, especially the director of "Lao Qian" Jung Hyuk Jaexi. Aren't you still the director of the drama department of our MBC TV station? As the saying goes, 'the first month to get the moon near the water', such a topical movie will definitely be on our talk show! ”

The idea of one of the subordinates immediately caught Shin Jung-so's attention, yes! Why didn't you think of it? The movie "Lao Qian" is definitely the most discussed movie by the audience recently, from the various characters in the movie to Kim Hye-so's nakedness. The ending of the body and the movie, and even the rumored girlfriend about the film director have made the headlines on the entertainment page, in short, the topic of this movie is absolutely super high, if you can invite the crew of "Lao Qian", then the ratings of this issue will definitely not have to worry.

If the crew of "Lao Qian" decides to star, then Shin Jung-so even dares to bet that the ratings are absolutely top.

It's just that although the dream is beautiful, the reality is a little cruel, and there is a barrier in front of them at present, that is, they don't know their colleague Jung Hyuk-jae from the TV station!

"Brother Shi, are you here?" When everyone was thinking about how to solve this matter, Liu Zaishi, one of the main MCs of "Let's Play", came to the conference room and sat down in a seat with ease, only then did he see the depressed look on everyone's faces.

"What's wrong with you?" As the main MC of the show, Liu Zaishi always attributed the failure of the show's ratings to himself many times, just like the low ratings of "Let's Play" in the recent period, Liu Zaishi is also trying to make changes, and try to help with everything he can in the production of the show, just like the discussion meeting before the start of the recording of the show, Liu Zaishi always comes spontaneously.

"We're talking about the theme of tomorrow's new episode!" One person explained.

"What's wrong? Did you encounter any problems? Liu Zaishi said curiously, the theme of the show should have been prepared before the recording began, and after deciding on the theme, the writer still needs to write out a few processes, and most of the rest needs to be played by the host himself.

"Everyone wants to invite the crew of "Lao Qian" to participate in our show, and they don't ask for much, just one or two supporting roles, the most important thing is that the director of "Lao Qian" Jung Hyuk Jae xi needs to arrive, and the recent discussion about Zheng Hyuk Jaexi's rumored girlfriend is also quite hot, so I want to invite it to increase the ratings, but none of us know Zheng Hyuk Jaexi, and we don't even have his phone." As he spoke, the young writer in front of him couldn't help but frown.

"You mean Jung Hyuk-jae?" Liu Zaishi's mouth opened wide after hearing everyone's words.

"That's right! Do you know Brother Shi in him? After saying this, everyone reacted, when Yoo Jae-seok called Zheng Hyuk-jae's name just now, he was very close, and it was not an honorific, which clearly showed that the two knew each other.

"He's a very dear brother of mine." Liu Zaishi replied truthfully.

"That's great!" Shin Jung-su on the side immediately heard Liu Zaishi's answer and immediately showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, "So can you give him a call?" Shin Jung-so asked a little embarrassed.

"Okay, I'll try." Liu Zaishi didn't dare to say big things, and in the eyes of everyone, I saw Liu Zaishi take out his mobile phone, and then press a string of numbers, and only after a few seconds of busy tone did he hear the sound of the phone being picked up.

"Hey, who are you?"

The female voice who answered the phone was very young, and she didn't wait for anything to be said over there, but she heard Liu Zaishi immediately, "Min Chu, I'm you in Shi Oppa, what about your brother?" ”

"In Shi Oppa, my brother is writing scripts in his study!"

"Give it to your brother, I have something to say to him......"

"Okay!"

Liu Zaishi put down the mobile phone in his ear first and explained to everyone, "The one who answered the phone just now was Hejae's sister, and Hejae will be here in a while." ”

Everyone looked at Liu Zaishi blankly, as if it was the first time they had seen him like this......
