Chapter 14: Inoue's Telephone

"It's true that there is a lot of people in your place now, but most of these people are people who are in a hurry, especially when everyone is still on their way to work, even if they are interested, most of them can't stop and listen to you sing." Zhou Xiao turned around and found that the person who was talking to him was an old man in his sixties.

"Are you ......?" Zhou Xiao asked.

"I'm just a passer-by, and I'm good at listening to you sing, but it's too inappropriate to choose a place, you should go a little further and stand near the platform, so that the people waiting for the train can hear you, and they have enough time to get there when the train comes."

"Makes sense......" It's not that Zhou Xiaoben is stupid, it's really that he never thought that he would do this kind of work one day, so he didn't think about it too completely.

"Then I'll go to the front and try again!" Zhou Xiao got up and said.

"It's fine to try, but it's best not to get your hopes up too much...... old man said.

“weishenme?”

"Japanese people are not so romantic, some time ago there were singers here, and even foreigners did it here, but they didn't do it for long, and there were too few people who would stop and listen." The old man said.

"That weishenme......" Zhou Xiao wondered in his heart, but as soon as the question arose, he thought of a very important question. It's the year 2000, and although Japan has always been an open nation, it seems that what you are doing is really a little too far ahead. Natsuki Sato's success may have a lot to do with her thirteen years later.

But Zhou Xiao will not give up easily, since he is here, he feels that he must do something.

Following the old man's suggestion, he moved his performance position a little distance towards the platform, and Zhou Xiao continued to sing.

One song after another, the whole morning of the second day that Zhou Xiao crossed over quietly passed in his own singing.

Although after being instructed by others, Zhou Xiao stood in a relatively haode position, but as the old man said, few Japanese people in a hurry were willing to stop and listen to Zhou Xiao sing, and after two hours passed, Zhou Xiao looked at the guitar case, which contained more than 2,000 yen in bits and pieces, but he himself couldn't sing anymore.

From the morning to the present about three hours, Zhou Xiao has earned a total of about 3,000 yen, so calculated, if he sings for ten hours a day, maybe he can earn 10,000 yen, but this is absolutely impossible, even if he wants to do this, his body will not be able to bear it.

A professional singer may be able to hold a concert every few hours, but even then, the singer himself will have time to rest. And Zhou Xiao's body at the moment, although he is correct when he speaks Japanese, he still has no training and a very thin foundation, and the three-hour continuous singing has already made him a little speechless.

"Hey, forget it first." Zhou Xiao gestured helplessly and prepared to go home.

"Since you can't do this for office workers in the morning, you may not use it too early tomorrow, so in the morning, just hang your throat......" Zhou Xiao in his previous life actually wanted to do this business, but his talent in his previous life was even worse, although he practiced singing and acting for a period of time, he still couldn't really become an artist in the end.

Before going home, he also went to the supermarket to buy some food, it can be said that if he can spend 3,000 yuan a day on food, Zhou Xiao's basically does not need to worry about life, but this is obviously impossible, don't look at the small house he rents is not even ten square meters, but the rent is still 50,000 yen that is difficult for him to bear, and he must work hard to make money to ensure that he is not kicked out.

After making a lunch and eating it, Zhou Xiao started his own career in codewords, and the rummaging in his mind last night had a very exciting result, because in addition to a few of Keigo Higashino's, he also found a set of novels by another person!

This set of two novels is called "We Are the Bubble Group" and "We Are the Bubble Group", even if it is placed in Japan 14 years later, the names of these two novels are definitely not well-known, but the TV series adapted from these two novels has created miracles.

The name of that TV series is "Naoki Hanzawa".

With the entry of the new century, the impact of the Internet and various emerging media on the TV media is very large, in some aspects, Japan is an extremely conservative country, so they still hope that Japanese TV can continue its glory, but even if they do more and better, they can't save the overall decline of Japanese dramas.

Now in 2000, it is the era when Takuya Kimura was crowned king in television, and at the beginning of this year, Kimura's TV series Beautiful Life, played by TBS, got an average of 31.8% super ratings, ranking first in the history of Japanese drama ratings.

And next year in 2001, Takuya Kimura performed a generation of drama "HERO", breaking the record created by the beautiful life and carving his name on the top two in the ratings of Japanese dramas.

But it's a pity that this has become the glory of Japanese dramas in the first fifteen years of the 21st century.

After Kimura's two dramas, the ratings of Japanese dramas began to slowly decrease, although there will also be dramas such as "Extreme Fresh Master" and "White Tower" in the middle to get good ratings, but the decadence and weakness of the overall ratings are still difficult to stop, and after 2006, if a Japanese drama can get 20% of the ratings, it can even be regarded as a divine drama.

Especially after 2010, as long as the ratings of a TV series don't drop by 5%, it is basically considered a normal level.

And under this premise, there are two TV series that have gone against the current to create legendary results.

Of these two TV series, one was broadcast in 2011, and the script was the original "Housewife Mita", and the other was "Naoki Hanzawa" screened in 2013.

And among these two dramas, Naoki Hanzawa is even more rebellious, the ratings of 19.4% for the premiere are already the numbers that allow most TV dramas to have a celebration party, but this is not enough, from the second episode to the sixth episode, Naoki Hanzawa's ratings are above 20% and are getting higher and higher!

29% in the fifth episode, 29% in the sixth episode, and the seventh episode broke through the barrier and reached 30%!

At this point, Naoki Hanzawa's momentum has been achieved, and the eighth and ninth episodes have grown by leaps and bounds again, and until the tenth episode, the ratings have reached an incomparably astonishing 42.2%!

Again, this is a record for 2013!

The final recovery of Japanese dramas is 41.3% of the 41.3% created in 2000 this year, but 13 years later, in 13 years when entertainment is extremely rich and ratings are decreasing, Naoki Hanzawa's final recovery ratings have become the first in the ratings, which has to be said to be an incomparably magical miracle.

For such a miracle, how could Zhou Xiao allow it to fall into the hands of others?

Hanzawa Naoki's two novels,It stands to reason that they should start to be serialized in magazines at the end of 03.,And now in 2000,The author of the novel,Ikei Tojun should still be writing other novels.,But Zhou Xiao doesn't have much time.,The author's ideas are often formed in his mind very early.,So for him,The sooner you write the novel, the better.。

Two more days passed between singing and coding, and when the time came to the fourth day after Zhou Xiao's crossing, his mobile phone rang when he was still at home revising the novel that afternoon.

"Strange, who could it be?" Zhou Xiao picked up his mobile phone in confusion, and in the past few days, almost no one has called him.

The numbers displayed on the old black-and-white screen made Zhou Xiao quickly figure out who the person who was calling.

"Hey, Uncle Inoue." Zhou Xiao answered the phone.

"Zhou ...... Zhou Xiao, where are you now, can you come out for a while? On the other end of the phone came the voice of the theater owner, Uncle Inoue.

"Me? I'm fine, I'm at home, where are you, I'm looking for you, but I haven't eaten lunch yet, and since you've called, I'm going to have a lunch. Zhou Xiaodao.

"Good...... Well, here you go. Uncle Inoue hesitated and agreed.

Note: The various rankings of Japanese dramas in this chapter are basically the rankings of modern Japanese dramas after the Heisei period in 1989, and before 89 years, it can be called the medieval era because there are fewer cultural activities, and it is not uncommon for viewers to exceed 50, so it is not counted.
