The staff of the production team also found this idea exciting when they considered it, but once this approach of exposing one's trump card is done, there is no way out.
"I'm sorry, let me mention one thing first." The staff of TV Asahi said, "The 10.3% opening, even if it is done as an ordinary talent show, the basics seem to be stable at present, and the band talent show itself is a fresh element
, it may not be necessary to go to the extent that Iwahashi-san said... After all, it is too exaggerated."
Although the TV station's production staff and their partners are working on the same program, they don't all have the same things in mind.
For TV stations, the most important thing is to ensure correct ratings.
The opening of 10.3% indeed exceeded their expectations. The existing elements are enough to support the freshness of the audience. If it continues steadily like this, it can become a talent show with good ratings.
It is good to increase the number of attractions, and if the ratings can still rise, it will be even more desirable. However, this kind of gambling also exposes the trump card operation method, which makes the TV station uneasy. They may prefer to leave room for adjustment.
However, this program is not led by TV Asahi. The majority of the production costs are at U-Miz, owned by Watanabe Manyumi, and the two foreign aid agencies brought in by Amuse and Kenyin. As a result, the program team does not have that
Instead of having the final say, we sit here and discuss with each other an acceptable result.
For Shinichi Iwahashi and Manyumi Watanabe, they risked their lives and their fortunes to produce this program, not just to get ratings. They want to make the program a phenomenon and select new talents through this program.
, and also let the newcomers show their results.
"The current ratings are off to a good start, but at this level alone, it cannot become a phenomenal program." Shinichi Iwahashi said, "We are not sitting here just to be an 'ordinary' entertainment program with good ratings.
Work hard here.”
He came up with the idea, but at times like this, he still has to convince everyone.
He spoke so directly as soon as he opened his mouth, which surprised the TV station staff.
"We want to make a show that can conquer the audience and let the bands that appear on this show shine in the industry. When we take stock of the history of television or music in the future, we cannot be bypassed, even if it is arrogant to say so
, but that’s not what making a show is, having arrogant goals and a humble heart at the same time.”
Even though he is a fake Japanese with the soul of rabbit country, when he talks Japanese style, his skills are 100%.
"So, what we have to consider has never been how to maintain dignity. Only when the industry recognizes the band from this show and the audience gets to know the band through the show, can they continue to support them in the show in reality.
, then, this kind of support in reality and the program support each other, so that we can walk on two legs."
"If the band we promised to debut cannot successfully launch a band with commercial success and cannot be recognized by the industry, then it will not be able to open up the pattern, and the audience will also have doubts about the program, and then the basic ratings will collapse.
Because the audience thought we lied."
"To this end, we must use every possible idea, find ways to prolong the freshness, increase the topic, and do everything we can. This idea is just one of the things that can be done."
Iwahashi Shinichi said clearly and thoroughly, "This is something that is tied together. Although the proposal is a bit bold, if we do this program, if it does not succeed, it is no different from failure."
"So," he looked around the conference room, "it doesn't matter if you show your trump card. As long as the trump card is high enough, even if it is seen by everyone, it is better if it is seen."
The staff of TV Asahi were speechless for a moment after hearing these words.
After a moment of silence, the first person to express his opinion was the former CBS Sony representative, "I'm sorry, I have to say this first, but I think this idea is very interesting. Or should I say, this is Iwahashi-san's view on the program.
Such absolute confidence.”
Absolute confidence is a good word to use.
I believe that this program will become more and more popular and attract more industry participants, so I dare to do this.
"I think Iwahashi-san, who dared to propose such a proposal, must also have the confidence to take this program to a higher level." CBS Sony's representative said, "I am very willing to stand on Iwahashi-san's side and feedback this proposal.
company."
Just like the rejection of Li Entertainment's priority just now, this representative's statement also opened the mouths of representatives from all parties who had been silently thinking.
"Well, I also think this proposal is good." Unexpectedly, the representative of Victory Entertainment, whose request for priority was rejected, also expressed his support at this time.
The pros and cons listed by Shinichi Iwahashi have been made very clear. This proposal, when showing the trump card, will not only increase the interest of the program, but also involve another thing.
Since other record companies and agencies can withdraw midway, then, while giving other companies such rights, their record companies that were the first to participate also have the right to withdraw, and they are still upright.
right.
In this way, for the record company, it increases its own insurance.
The representative of CBS and Sony was the first to express support. Maybe he saw this loophole... The representative of Victory Entertainment secretly thought in his heart.
The representative of Yanyin still has not expressed his position, and it seems that he wants to report it back to the firm first.
On the contrary, the representative of amuse gave the answer straightforwardly, "Actually, President Osato of the company has expressed his full support for Iwahashi-san and Watanabe-san's plan early on."
Now, amuse's ball and the ball for Watanabe Wanyumi were both in her hands.
Watanabe Manyumi picked up the two balls and finally said, "I am definitely on Iwahashi-san's side."
In today's meeting, she said surprisingly little. When she first heard Iwahashi Shinichi's idea, she was also shocked and felt that this method of exposing one's trump card was too dangerous.
However, she was more willing to understand Iwahashi Shinichi than anyone else. When she thought about what Iwahashi Shinichi said when convincing everyone, she understood that what he did was definitely not out of the blue.
For them, who believe that this program will help to ignite the band's popularity and regard the band as their next goal, if this program cannot become a phenomenon-level program, it will be a failure.
Ordinary programs may have a safety line, but for this show, the safety line is a death line.
Therefore, you can only try boldly, you can only do things that others dare not do, that's all.
