Chapter 440: Beyond Expectations
"Is the cake here?"
The courier sent the little brother to push the door in, and the people inside saw the person carrying the cake appear, and quickly greeted him and took the cake. The ratings of the eleventh episode of "Blue Life and Death Love" were counted early this morning, and the data is not good-looking, the tenth episode showed a gratifying increase of five percentage points, and in the second half, this growth did not fall, but continued to grow upward, and the growth curve is steeper!
In addition to the excitement, Okada Zhuli hurriedly convened the main creative team and announced the good news, and everyone was very shocked.
Although the new season has just begun, it is not the first episode after all, and no one cares too much about the ratings, mainly because they didn't think that the ratings would fluctuate again at the beginning, but they didn't expect it to rise so amazingly. If it's a stock, it's a proper high-performance stock.
It's only the eleventh episode, and it's too early to go to the celebration banquet now, so Okada Juri directly paid out of his own pocket and urgently ordered two cream cakes at the most famous pastry shop in Tokyo.
After Okada Juri took the cake, she happily gave the courier brother a tip of 1,000 yen, this kind of Western bad habit Okada Juri has always scoffed at, and this move can be seen that she is indeed happy today.
"Mr. Taniguchi." When Okada saw Yutaka Taniguchi in the morning, he also greeted happily, his face flushed, "Please come in and eat a piece of cake, you have worked hard during this time, and your work is also crucial!" Thank you so much!"
"Huh? Belch...... Belch...... Okay, you're so kind." The agent Yutaka Taniguchi said a little uncomfortable.
You must know that Okada Zhuli is usually not so polite, and he is a producer who is notoriously difficult to talk to and has a strict attitude. She put too much mental burden on herself, because in the early days, she was a producer of the same status as Yui Mizuhara, but Yui Mizuhara soared, and she was still standing in place. secretly competed with Taro Nishimura again, but "White Tower" exploded, but "Blue Life and Death Love" is still mediocre in the ratings of about 20.
In addition, because it is a woman, according to the workplace experience of predecessors, it is difficult for women to get the same respect as men in the workplace if they do not behave vigorously. Things may change in the future, but this is true of the present season.
So Okada Zhuli is always very strict and even a little irritable, Taniguchi Yutaka has not eaten her hanging, although there is not much direct contact between the agent and the producer, but once the actor has a decline, Okada Zhuli will not criticize the actor for the first time, but go to him, reprimand him, and ask him if he is interested in the actor, whether he supervises the actor's image and performance status?
Izuki Tong and they couldn't remember the lines, so Okada Zhuri looked for him; Izuki Tong's face is swollen, and Okada Zhuli looks for her; Recently, Izuki Tong has been a little depressed, but Okada Zhuli is still looking for him......
It is precisely because of the existence of Okada Zhuli that Yui Taniguchi deliberately found Yui Mizuhara today and said about Izuki Tong, just because he was afraid that Okada Zhuri would report to a higher level and appear to have problems with his work ability.
So much so that now I am scared as soon as I get a call. And in Taniguchi Toyoza's impression, this Okada Zhuli doesn't seem to have a good tone for himself.
It's not that people have opinions about him, but the two are originally different, except for Xingshi to ask for guilt, there is nothing else to find him to discuss the issue of actors.
In fact, Yutaka Taniguchi's position in the company was not lower than that of Okada Zhuli, and he was a little angry at first being beaten so much, but then he got used to it.
After all, Shuibo production is now a priority for the production department, everything is based on box office and ratings, and results are everything. Before the artist agency came up with brilliant results, it had no choice but to adopt a soft attitude towards these producers.
As a result, today's attitude of Okada Zhuli is like a spring breeze and rain, which makes Taniguchi Yutaka a little uncomfortable for a while.
Okada Zhuli cut a large piece of cream cake with his own hands and handed it to Taniguchi Toyozao on the tray, and also intimately handed the fork, and did not forget to remind Taniguchi Toyozao in his ear when he was eating the cake in silence.
"Taniguchi-san, the actor's performance during this period is not bad, which is inseparable from the results of your hard work, and now the ratings are also due to you. It's just that the kid seems to be in a bad mood recently, and even I feel that I have an attitude of avoiding acting work, although it doesn't affect the normal shooting, but we had better not turn a blind eye to any bad phenomena, and I also trouble you to pay more attention to the psychological counseling of the actors, it's really troublesome for you!"
Saying that, he bowed, and Taniguchi Yuhaya also hurriedly bowed in return, but one accidentally fell the cake in his hand to the ground.
Okada Zhuli hurriedly took a new piece to him, but Taniguchi Toyohaya looked at the cake on the ground, his expression was complicated, and there were only four words in his mind: salute first and then soldier.
The idea of not wanting to be an artist was shown by Izuki Tong before, and he didn't care much about it at first, but now he can't help but get nervous. new
If Izuki Tong's bad thoughts continue to ferment, and if it is more serious, if he picks a child during the filming of the TV series and follow-up promotion, Okada Zhuli will be gentle to eat him alive.
Yutaka Taniguchi couldn't help but shudder, and looked at the Izuki boy who was standing not far away and eating a big cake.
"Ah Tong, the results of the new TV series are good." Takami Inoui said with some excitement, "In this way, we do have a chance to become popular!"
"It's just one episode, it doesn't mean anything, and it's not certain what will be like in the future......" Izuki said as he continued to eat the cake.
"Izuki, you're pessimistic, I don't think so." Takami Inouchita ate her cake and said, "I didn't know much about it before, but I've learned it lately, and our president seems to be a very powerful person. He's not only a director, screenwriter, producer, but also a writer, have you ever heard of the book "Gambling Apocalypse", which sells so badly? That's what he wrote!"
"Gambling Apocalypse" is now in the second part of the serialization, the serialization situation and sales are still hot, and it is extremely popular among young people. This book is not as literary as books like "White Night Walking" and "The Devotion of Suspect X", but it is not far behind in terms of commerciality. Abandoning some of the literary techniques of gentle, multi-line storytelling, a main line from beginning to end, and as an adventure that can stimulate the reader's adrenaline very much, so the popularity has increased unabated, and there is even a faint tendency to surpass Kei Fujiwara's previous famous works.
And this book has been widely praised by critics as "close to the writing technique of comic creation", which is actually very appropriate, after all, the original work of this book is a comic. And as a comic, it doesn't have a likable and popular painting style, but it can still be a hit, and the animation has been filmed for many seasons and made into a movie. It's because the story itself is very powerful.
Why else can't even a mollusk game be copied? And the plagiarized glass bridge passage is not too conspicuous in this comic, the rock-paper-scissors game, the prison dice fight and the pachinko battle are more exciting, but I don't dare to copy it.
Recently, a manga magazine approached Kei Fujiwara, hoping to adapt this into a magazine, and after Kei Fujiwara won good cooperation conditions, he also agreed. Now this manga is being serialized.
"Well, I think I've heard of it." Izuki Tong nodded, and then smiled evilly at Takami Inoshita: "Then instead of being an artist under him, it is better to marry him directly as a wife?"
Takami Insubi nodded seriously, "Wow, if he offers to date me, I'll say yes."
"Giggles...... "Giggles," the two young girls laughed unruly.
Of course, although the two of them were just discussing [maybe it would be red] at this time, they didn't really think in that direction. What to do if you are really popular, it can be said that you are not mentally prepared.
At this time, they just thought that the ratings of this episode of the TV series were good, and they might just get a red envelope at the celebration banquet, but the development of things gradually far exceeded the expectations of the two......
