Chapter Ninety-Three: The first episode has the posture of a champion

The next day, everyone in the main creative team sat in the conference room, and everyone in the room was as quiet as chickens.

They were waiting for Yui Mizuhara to bring a ratings report on the first episode of "The Long Holiday" last night.

After a while, everyone faintly heard a sound of footsteps, and the sound of high heels hitting the ground sounded rhythmic.

Everyone heard that it was Yui Mizuhara, so they subconsciously straightened their backs.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and they sounded very hurried, and after a few seconds, the door to the conference room was pushed open, and Yui Mizuhara gasped and walked in.

"Everyone......" Yui Mizuhara's face flushed slightly, "27......"

"What?" Taro Nishimura stood up, "The highest rating is 27%? Really?"

For prime-time programs, 15% is the passing standard, and 20% is the standard for popular dramas, although everyone has high expectations for the work "Long Holiday", but according to everyone's speculation, the highest ratings are probably in the range of 18% to 22%.

And 27% has exceeded their expectations too much, which is enough to shock the jaws of peers, although under normal circumstances, the ratings of the first episode and the ending are the highest in the whole show,

"It's not ......," Yui Mizuhara said.

The crowd was a little disappointed, it turned out that they had heard it wrong.

"It's a time-sharing average rating of 27%, and the time-sharing maximum rating is 31%." Yui Mizuhara couldn't hide her excitement, "When I first got the ratings report, I asked them several times because they were mistaken, and the director even came to me and praised us."

Everyone was silent for three seconds, and then they all let out sounds of surprise but confusion at the same time.

"Really?"

"Let me see the report!"

Yui Mizuhara opened the ratings report in her hand and presented it to everyone, and the ratings information of the show was clearly written on it, and there would be no mistake.

The members of the main creative team were extremely informative, and Hideaki Shibasaki was even more excited to clasp hands with the main cameraman.

In an atmosphere of joy, Yui Mizuhara subconsciously looked at Kei Fujiwara.

Fujiwara Kei looked calm at this time, but his brows furrowed slightly.

This result was almost in line with his expectations...... Although this version of "Long Vacation" has much lower ratings for the first episode than the original.

The original "Long Holiday", the average rating of the first episode reached 30.6%, although it was slightly reduced later, but the overall remained around 28, and the last episode reached an astonishing 36.7%.

Of course, such a high rating is also because in the parallel world, the Yuejiu drama has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so it is natural that the show can attract a large number of viewers to sit in front of the TV as soon as the show starts.

In this world, there is no concept of "Moon Nine Drama", and Fujiwara Kei's positioning of "Long Holiday" is a drama that opens the door to "Moon Nine".

So it's normal that the first episode of the adapted version is not as good as the first episode of the original version, and I hope it will grow in the future.

"Fujiwara-kun, is there anything wrong?" Yui Mizuhara asked cautiously.

"Long Vacation" is off to a good start, and Kei Fujiwara, as an independent creative screenwriter, can be said to have made great contributions, which fully proves that he can not only write reasoning well, but also has extraordinary talent in the field of TV drama script creation.

All-rounder.

"There's nothing wrong with that, we're doing really well." Kei Fujiwara looked up and smiled, "Can I take a look at the report?"

When others heard this, they hurriedly handed over the ratings report, Fujiwara Kei opened the report and looked at the line chart of the ratings, which was quite healthy, although there were a few viewers who left with the wrong taste, but most of them could be seen from the beginning to the end, and the retention rate was very high.

"The director praised us." Yui Mizuhara said happily, "They even gave us another budget for production and promotional resources."

"Very good, the publicity must keep up, and strive to make the audience hear the name of this drama even if they have not seen it."

As a practitioner in the film and television industry from 2022, Kei Fujiwara certainly knows what it takes to make a movie

Depending on the importance of publicity and distribution of works, "the fragrance of wine is not afraid of deep alleys" is an out-and-out crooked principle in the film and television industry.

Because the timeliness of film and television works is very important, five years after a movie or TV series is broadcast, everyone says that this is a drama classic, except for adding glory to the face of the main creator, it has no effect at all. "Journey to the West" was regarded as a classic, and it almost bankrupted Xingye's company with a stick.

Late justice is not justice, and late viewers are not spectators. It's all just spectators.

Even if there are high-quality works, and with their excellent level, they can finally achieve good profits, but if you want to keep up with the publicity from the beginning, the income can be tripled.

"No problem, I'll do it right away." Yui Mizuhara nodded and said.

"By the way, has the application for the rescheduling of Anthropological Observation been approved?" Kei Fujiwara asked.

"I haven't replied yet, so I'll go directly to the director to say hello." It stands to reason that such a trivial matter shouldn't directly trouble the director, but who made their first episode look like this? This is a drama that hopes to win the spring war, what's wrong with my privileges?

"Try to strive for a time slot of 10 p.m. on Sunday, if you can't get it, you can also get 10 p.m. on Monday, just in time to take over "Long Holiday"."

"No problem."

Everyone looked at Fujiwara Kei and Mizuhara Yui in a bit of a daze, Fujiwara Kei asked or asked questions, and Mizuhara Yui answered or promised to do it, which ...... Who is the producer?

"By the way, there's one more thing, Suwon." At this time, Kei Fujiwara took out a printed document and handed it to Yui Mizuhara, "Please help me fax this document to the director's office."

"What is this?"

Yui Mizuhara looked down and found that the document was a plan that read: New Ratings Main Battlefield: Moon Nine.

"Good ......"

"Can I take a look, Fujiwara?"

"Absolutely."

"Okay, I'll fax it over in a moment."

Yui Mizuhara opened the proposal, and the text of the proposal was not lengthy, in short, Kei Fujiwara hoped that Taili would devote resources to help the "Moon-Nine" period become a super time that could surpass the weekend period.

If "Long Vacation" can achieve satisfactory results, I hope that the director will give a clear commitment that as long as Kei Fujiwara is under contract, all programs in the ninth period of the month will be in charge of their team.

As long as they are given time for three dramas, he is confident that he will completely change the viewing habits of the audience, as long as it is nine o'clock on the moonlight day, he will habitually turn on the TV set and watch the programs of Fukuyama Channel.

But if he wants to complete such a miracle of the ninth month, only he can do it, and before he achieves his goal, he can't change his generals.

The tone in the plan book is actually humble, but this is what Yui Mizuhara reads from the inside.

Yui Mizuhara subconsciously swallowed her saliva and glanced at Kei Fujiwara, is he not satisfied with making a show now? Have you started to meddle in the strategic side? Isn't that a little too early?

Fujiwara Kei glanced back at her, and seemed to understand what she meant, so he said, "The time schedule is usually set several months in advance, if you don't give Taili a vaccination in advance, maybe it will be given to someone else on the ninth day of the next month, so it's better to communicate diligently." If Mr. Yoshida doesn't agree, forget it."

"Okay." Yui Mizuhara put the proposal away, "I'll report it for you."
