Chapter 176: Dancing in the Rain
"Everyone has seen the ratings of the last episode, and it has dropped a lot......
Hidaka said as he flipped through the ratings reports of the previous two days, and he looked at the people in the conference room with a serious expression.
The audience was silent for several seconds, and the main assistant said, "The last episode was affected by the arson of East Ani, and the ratings of all entertainment programs of the day have dropped and have been diverted by news programs, which is normal. The drop in "Homeless Kids" is not small."
"But our drop is bigger than theirs." "And after this drop in ratings, the gap between us has narrowed."
Everyone didn't speak, and now the ratings battle between "Homeless Child" and "Gemini Detective" is the most concerned thing in the broadcasting industry, and Hidaka Junaki, as the champion, is accepting the challenge of Kei Fujiwara and his party. Therefore, it is extremely important to regard the ratings as extraordinarily important.
"The top priority now is to increase the ratings." Hidaka Junming said, "Mr. Yamada, please work hard in terms of publicity resources, try to link up with some popular variety shows and programs in the station, and the station should cooperate with us."
Producer Yamada Imajiro nodded, "I see."
"In terms of scripts, the two screenwriting teachers also put more thought into it, hoping to write new ideas." Atsuaki Hidaka said, "To be honest, 'Renzaburo Furuhata', which is also a detective drama, is a barrier that is difficult to overcome, and as a detective drama, its trickery design and destruction process are almost impeccable. Fujiwara-san is a writer of reasoning, and in this regard, Yamada-sensei, Matsushita-sensei, you are not his opponents."
Junichi Yamada lowered his head, and did not show a dissatisfied look on his face, so he should have agreed with this statement.
"So in terms of plot, I hope to focus on the interaction between the two protagonists as we discussed at the previous planning meeting, and arrange more action scenes for Hoshino-kun's character to show the handsome and heroic appearance of this popular idol."
"Also, don't be too old-fashioned about eucalyptus itself, I wonder if you've seen what Kei Fujiwara once talked about in his writing class? I think it makes a lot of sense. That is, to write as little as possible about the crimes of the second disease and the crimes of perverts, which is a manifestation of technical ability that cannot be achieved."
This is one of the reasons why Hidaka has been able to broadcast the world for many years, and that is that he is not ashamed to learn from his opponents. Even if you taunt and belittle your opponent in public, it is just a propaganda ploy. And on the internal occasion, he always pays tribute to Kei Fujiwara.
Shinya Matsumoto blushed, in fact, he is not particularly good at writing criminal investigation dramas, so he also gave a plot of the crime of a psychopath before, but it was vetoed by Hidaka Junming.
At this time, Junichi Yamada said, "Superintendent Hidaka, I wrote a new outline of the ninth episode yesterday, so please take a look at it."
As he spoke, he handed over a piece of paper, and Hidaka Junming glanced at the script, and frowned: "Yamada-kun, is your outline about the Higashi Ani arson?"
Jun Yamada nodded: "That's right, I plan to introduce realistic elements and introduce realistic event elements in Eucalyptus in the ninth episode."
"What does Matsushita-sensei think?" Hidaka asked.
Shinya Matsushita laughed, "I also think it's a good idea, taking advantage of the social hot spots, maybe the ratings of this episode will explode."
The East Ani arson has caused a lot of uproar, and even affected TV stations and publishing houses, and in recent times, there have been many more security guards at the entrance of TTV TV, all of whom are on the lookout for suspicious people entering and leaving.
For fear that there will be a second Aoba Yankee.
As a person in the broadcasting industry, Hidaka Junming also felt a little sad and felt quite sad after learning that more than 30 people had died in the Dongani arson. So after learning that the script was adapted into the story of the prototype of "Arson", I instinctively felt a little uncomfortable.
Although he always felt that filming such a plot made him instinctively feel a little uneasy, but as a TV person, the creed of "ratings are everything" eventually prevailed, and as long as it can improve ratings, anything can be done.
Hidaka looked at the script in his hand, hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, then let's do this, let the line writer refine and make the lines more practical and practical."
Followed by
, added: "Yamada-kun, thank you for your hard work." But he didn't say much to Matsushita.
After the meeting, Shinya Matsushita approached Junichi Yamada and said with a smile, "Yamada-san, let's discuss the next division of labor."
Jun Yamada didn't even look at him, "Teacher Matsushita, it's good to call your senior disciple to come to me directly for this kind of thing, if there is anything, it will be more convenient for the two of us to communicate directly."
After that, he just took the coffee and left, no matter how ugly Shinya Matsushita's face was behind him.
"Damn!" Shinya Matsushita subconsciously wanted to kick the chair, but the toe that was broken last time was still aching, so I had to endure it.
……
After Kei Fujiwara wrote the script for "Suddenly Looking Back", Nagaharu Ohno also decisively abandoned the original script of "Doctor Air" and decided to shoot a new story.
He locked himself in his room and wrote a storyboard and gave it to Kei Fujiwara to look at.
Kei Fujiwara took the script of the split-shot, and after reading it once, he imagined the picture in his mind.
Nagaharu Ohno told Kei Fujiwara some of his shooting ideas, and Kei Fujiwara nodded again and again. Although Nagaharu Ohno is not good at creating words, he does have a talent for turning words into pictures.
"Just shoot it the way you want it, no problem." "But there's a set of shots that I want to shoot the way I want to."
"You say." Ohno Nagaji is as good as a stream.
"It's the time when Fujino came out of Kyomoto's house, and it was raining in the sky, but in the rain, because he and Kyomoto knew each other's hearts, Fujino regained his dream, and felt happy from the bottom of his heart, so he danced in the rain to his heart's content. It's important to set aside time for this section to focus on the emotions of the characters at the moment."
This paragraph is also a very commendable paragraph of the manga "Suddenly Looking Back", in the original work, this plot does not have a single line, Fujimoto uses his extraordinary shots to draw, through the protagonist's dancing posture to perfectly express the emotions of the characters.
Fujimoto himself is known as a favorite manga artist to watch movies, not only because his manga is full of cinematic shots, but also because his manga is full of menus of classic movies.
The protagonist Fujino dancing in the rain originates from the classic American movie "Singin' in the Rain" released in 1952, in which Gene Kelly sings and dances in the rain.
This paragraph is a classic picture left in film history, and it has been used in many movies later, such as Bong Joon-ho's "Mother", and there is also a picture of the character dancing alone in the rain.
Silent dance can often give the audience the greatest impact.
Hearing Kei Fujiwara say what he thought, Nagaharu Ohno unconsciously appeared in his mind with that scene, and he sincerely felt the impact of this plot.
"How much budget do you have on hand?" Kei Fujiwara asked, "I can make up for what is not enough."
"It's easy to talk about money, but it's a big deal, I'll just ask my dad for it." Nagaharu Ohno waved his hand.
"Let's join forces, I'll pay a part." Keido Fujiwara.
Nagaharu Ohno nodded, "Yes."
"Have you found an actor?"
"Because of the change of script, the actors I was looking for can't be used, and I'm planning to recruit new actors. There are only two main actors, so it shouldn't be hard to find."
