Chapter 407: Not the same thing
The five major TV stations of Fukuyama, TTV, NBC, Fanxing, and Dongdao are competing for the leisure time of 150 million people in the country, and the competition is fierce.
The competition between several major TV stations has lasted for decades, and there are often winners and losers against each other, and there is no one TV station that has always maintained an absolute dominant position among the five majors. In the 70s, NBC was the dominant family, but it was overtaken by TTV for nearly a decade, but after entering the 90s, it was gradually caught up by Fukuyama Terrace.
The Moon-Nine drama series led by Kei Fujiwara has completed a comprehensive surpassing of TTV, and the reason why TTV was the first to launch an attack on Moon-Nine drama was also because of a sense of crisis.
The changing banner of the king at the head of the city has always been like this. I don't know who the next satellite TV that can be called the ratings hegemon is, but the industry generally believes that Fushan TV can maintain its hegemony for more than five years with the Yuejiu series.
Even if it is Kei Fujiwara's departure, it can't be shaken, after all, the foundation of the Yuejiu drama has been consolidated. Both the level of operation and the audience base are solid.
It is precisely because of this that the shallow flush of water will feel stressed.
He was appointed by the Production Bureau to be in charge of the production of the next quarter's Tsukijiu drama, and since the beginning of the year, the Tsukijiu drama has been completely separated from Kei Fujiwara. In the first month of separation, the leaders of the entire production bureau were extremely panicked. It's as if a small business owner has lost the backbone of his business, but the sequel work after Kei Fujiwara's departure has achieved good results. This also relieved the senior management of the production bureau and the new director, and the concept of "the platform is greater than the individual" was reawakened in their minds. Perhaps Kei Fujiwara is not irreplaceable, and if you cultivate it, it will spring up like mushrooms after a rain.
Shimizu Qianchong is a well-known producer in Taiwan, and he continues to be in charge of Yuejiu Drama, knowing that Yuejiu Drama must not fall into his hands, otherwise he will definitely be uncomfortable in Taiwan for a while.
After thinking about it for a long time, at the suggestion of a senior screenwriter, Shimizu Asaaki finally decided to adapt a medical-themed manga, while the male protagonist chose Ken Nagasawa, who has both popularity and strength.
But not long after making a decision, I heard that Shuibo Production was also planning to shoot a new drama with a medical theme, and after Shimizu Asaochong heard about it, he subconsciously felt a little big.
The current Fujiwara Kei is completely different from the Fujiwara Kei two years ago, if two years ago Fujiwara Kei might have occasionally encountered unconvinced challengers or contemptuous seniors, now this kind of person is almost extinct. It is impossible for someone like Atsuaki Hidaka more than a year ago to say in front of the camera, "Fujiwara-kun's understanding of the work needs to be strengthened". No one would express this opinion in public, and no one would really think so.
The words of Atsuaki Hidaka expressing contempt for Kei Fujiwara in front of the camera have now become an enduring joke in the broadcasting world. However, Hidaka Junming does have two brushes, and his success is not unreasonable, he doesn't care about the audience and peers laughing at him, and even sometimes when he participates in a talk show, he will take it out and say it. I have to say that in such a pressurecooker-like environment in the broadcasting industry, a good attitude is also a weapon to break through the rivers and lakes.
And the reason why Hidaka Junming dared to ridicule Fujiwara Kei was also because Fujiwara Kei had not yet killed in the broadcasting world at that time. And now, Kei Fujiwara is like a radiation source, and anyone who broadcasts his work at the same time will feel extremely uncomfortable.
However, Fujiwara Kei was quite polite, he didn't backstab his old club, and this time the new drama was broadcast on the weekend, avoiding the ninth of the month. But if the subject matter crashes, the audience will inevitably compare the two dramas, and once they fall into a disadvantage, even if the quality of the work itself is good, it will attract some bad reviews. This is also where Shimizu Shallow Chong feels his head is big.
"Mr. Shimizu." At this time, the producer's assistant knocked on the door and walked in, saying, "There is an answer from Nagasawa Ken's side...... They refused to cooperate."
In fact, the tone of Chang Zexian's agent when he called to express his refusal was quite tactful, and even a little humble. After all, a few days ago, he expressed a good intention to cooperate, but suddenly he refused again, for fear that Fushantai would not like it. But the assistant producer paraphrased, just
To put it simply, the result is the same anyway, and it doesn't matter what your attitude is.
Qing Shui Qianchong couldn't help frowning, the issue of actors is also something he has always been very concerned about, and for ratings performance, sometimes the choice of actors is more important than the director.
And Chang Zexian, as an artist who is still good at popularity and acting skills, is also the best candidate he set after discussing with the main creative team, and the promised salary is also of a high grade, and I heard that Chang Zexian intends to transform recently, he should be interested in this kind of professional drama, why did he refuse?
"What's going on?" Shimizu Asaksu hopes that it is best for Nagasawa Ken to serve as the main officer, trying to redeem it, "Do they have any considerations?"
"The specific situation, the brokerage company didn't tell me too clearly, just said that the company has other appointments temporarily, schedule conflicts and so on...... But I think he has other plans to participate."
"Other plans?"
The assistant producer hesitated for a moment and said, "I heard that Ken Nagasawa went to audition for "The White Tower" not long ago, maybe ......
The producer's assistant shut up in the middle of the sentence.
Shimizu Asao Chong was not impatient, it was still common for two crews to grab actors from each other, and after thinking about it, he said: "Go to Nagasawa Ken's agent again and tell him that we are willing to increase the salary by about one million yen on the original basis, but we must sign the contract before tomorrow."
"Okay." The assistant producer nodded and left.
Shimizu sat alone in the office, playing with a fountain pen, and suddenly remembered the first time he saw Kei Fujiwara on the set three years ago. To be honest, I didn't leave any impression at the time, but I remember that it was a director assistant with strong work ability. Director Sato at the time also mentioned this young man and said that he could train it.
At that time, Shimizu Asaochong agreed smoothly, and he didn't feel anything, but before he could be promoted, the agent of Hayato Kimura, the actor of the drama at that time, suddenly made a suggestion, saying that Kei Fujiwara had a poor work attitude and hoped to be transferred from the crew. At that time, Shimizu Asahiro didn't care too much, although he was a little dissatisfied with the actor's agent interfering in the crew's personnel, but he still did it.
When I heard Kei Fujiwara's name again, it was the hit of "White Night Walking", Fukuyamatai signed a contract with Kei Fujiwara as the main creator and screenwriter, and then the popularity of "Long Holiday" and the opening of the world-famous Yuejiu series......
Every time I think of this, there is resentment rising in Shimizu's shallow rush to the sky, if it weren't for that annoying actor and agent, maybe the person who reached a long-term relationship with Fujiwara Kei in the first place would be himself, and if he had the achievement of promoting the Yuejiu series in his resume...... Then in another ten years, it is not impossible to compete for the position of director of the production bureau with the help of factions......
But a miss is a miss after all. Qing Mizu's shallow sighed, and at the same time remembered Yui Mizuhara.
As a scarce female producer, Yui Mizuhara's work ability is eye-catching, and she was lucky enough to pick up the baby bump of Kei Fujiwara, but she was still confused after all. No matter how strong Kei Fujiwara's ability is, without the support of the five major TV stations, it is difficult to display his talents, why did he really stay in his small production company?
And Director Yoshida...... Really, it's too idle to be at the age of retirement, and still messing around with young people? After retirement, isn't it good to take care of your body and travel around the great rivers and mountains?
Qing Shui Qianchong thought so in his heart, and at the same time had a strange idea in his heart.
Although he is now a well-known producer of Fukuyamadai, it seems that he can see the end of his future over the years, and if he is transferred to management, he will become a special manager at most. If you want to become the director of the production bureau, it is impossible for the deputy director or even the director to become the director.
But if you join Shuibo Production at this moment, if this film and television production company becomes a well-known company in the future, your position in the broadcasting industry will go further, and you can't say.
But as soon as such an idea appeared, Qing Shui Asao smiled self-deprecatingly and waved his hand to veto himself. What are you kidding, giving up a job at a TV station to go to a medium-sized production company, wouldn't it be as stupid as Yui Mizuhara.
