On July 3rd, Tuesday, the summer season of Chihara Rinto’s team began.
"The Cold and Warm World" is the first to play. This is a family drama, targeting housewives, and these people are most likely to watch the drama on Tuesday nights, and their group is very large. Japan's gender equality is in a state of disarray. At present,
Nearly 80% of Japanese women still stay at home, and this situation becomes more common the further you go to the countryside.
Everyone had high expectations for this TV series with a modest investment but a huge audience. They hoped that it would get off to a good start and give the whole season a good start. However, when the results came out the next day, "The Cold and Warm World" was on its knees.
, the average time-sharing ratings of the first episode were only 8.78%, and the highest time-sharing ratings were only 9.2%. The only one that got a good response was the theme song "There Are Ghosts in the World", which caused a bit of heated discussion on the Internet, but the rest of the response was mediocre.
.
Immediately after the criminal investigation mystery drama "Xiang Bang" was aired, mystery fans are also a backbone group among Japanese audiences. Mystery dramas have always been popular in Japan, but the results are only slightly better, but they are still kneeling, and the average time-sharing ratings
9.6%, the highest time-sharing rating was 10.5%, without any response.
Then comes Thursday night's "Obstetrician". Doctors are a naturally respected profession in Japanese society, and obstetricians are even more fresh. The audience should not be low. I think the audience will be interested, but the situation is...
It got worse. The first episode's average time-sharing ratings were 9.0%, and its peak time-sharing ratings were 9.8%. It didn't even make a splash.
This is the golden age of television programs. During the prime time at 8 o'clock in the evening, the general required passing mark is 15%. Even if Kanto United Station is weaker, it should have 13% to be considered passing, so the results are very clear for the first summer broadcast.
The week was not over yet, and he played three plays in a row, all of which were below the cut-off line.
Nishijima Rumi felt very unwilling and was as tired as a dog, so she got this result?
She felt that the team was about to collapse, and no team could accept such results. However, she participated in the ratings report analysis meetings one after another, and was shocked to find that no one had any idea of wavering, and no one even acted as if they had fallen below the halfway line.
Worrying, they just made comments based on the ratings report to judge where the audience could like it more, where the filming could be improved, and which actor's performance was lacking.
She couldn't help but have a new understanding of this team. She felt that this team was very resilient. However, after participating in two analysis meetings in a row, she finally realized at the ratings analysis meeting of "Obstetrician Bird" on Friday morning that it was not that the attack was not enough.
Big, it's not that the team is tough enough, but Rinto Chihara is sitting in the chair, his expression is always calm and collected. As long as he doesn't panic, everyone below seems to maintain confidence, and there is no need to panic.
This is the charm of a team leader, right?
With the huge prestige accumulated through extraordinary successes, he didn't even need to say any words of encouragement. Just sitting there, everyone had a backbone, and they could face dangers without panic and just think about how to do it.
Just try your best to do your own thing. This is an extraordinary trust. I believe that he will eventually lead everyone to victory. The current difficulties are not worth mentioning. They are just small difficulties on the road to victory. Get over it.
Just fine.
It can really only be described as charisma, without any exaggeration!
Looking at Chihara Rinto who was sitting in the main seat, listening carefully to his subordinates' speeches, and seeing him still turning the carbon pen habitually, Nishijima Rumi was really shaken in his heart.
Chihara Rinto can endure hardships and endure high-intensity continuous work. This is nothing. Nishijima Rumi can do it even if she is ruthless.
It's okay for Chihara Rinto to be able to manage the team well and assign all aspects of things clearly. Nishijima Rumi feels that her abilities are not weak and she should be able to do it.
However, this feeling of trustworthiness is so incredible. Nishijima Rumi is really not sure whether she can accumulate it. She has followed Qianhara Rinto for such a long time. Even if she respects him, she still doesn't feel that she is much weaker than him. After all, she
She was also quite outstanding, but at this moment, she was a little distracted looking at Qianhara Rinto's face.
When everything is going well, some things cannot be seen clearly, but when times are adverse, it is really clear whether the gold is real or gold-plated.
Chihara Rinto was also very pleased with the reaction of his subordinates. After a bad start, everyone was calm this time. There was no negative emotion at all. Instead, they were high-spirited without any encouragement. The core subordinates were used to winning again and again, and were very interested in winning.
It has been taken for granted, but now that the new drama has begun, the congenital conditions are harsh, which only makes everyone more united.
The team really needs training. If "Unnatural Death" had not participated in the vicious competition at the same time, these people may not have performed as well as they did now. When they were flanked, everyone looked like they had heard that their son had been in a car accident. They were in a panic.
Anxious and completely at a loss, he had to personally go into battle to encourage people.
The analysis meeting on Friday morning was successfully completed. Everyone confirmed the content that needed to be adjusted. They returned to filming with high spirits and strived to improve the results in the next episode. Chihara Rinto returned with Nishijima Rumi.
After nearly a month of office shooting, it has gradually been sorted out, and he has become relatively relaxed. As long as he does a good job in quality supervision, his subordinates will naturally push the progress forward, without him following behind and kicking their butts all day long.
.
On the road, Chihara Rinto walked a few steps, turned to look at Nishijima Rumi, and asked with a smile: "You have been looking at me just now, is there anything you want to say to me alone?" He always felt that Nishijima Rumi was talking.
Too few, and she was considered a newcomer. She was probably worried about not integrating into the team. Some mistakes she pointed out aroused the resentment of the seniors. She said sincerely: "As long as it is beneficial to the shooting, just say it directly. As long as it makes sense,
Everyone will listen, including me, so you don’t have anything to worry about.”
He asked himself that he was not a stingy person. He would listen to what others said if they made sense, and listening to both would make it clear that one would believe and the other would not. It was impossible for him not to understand. This was not to be polite, but he really hoped that Rumi Nishijima could give some valuable advice.
Suggestion, but Nishijima Rumi was stunned for a moment and said directly: "Chihara-san, I have only just begun to understand the production bureau system, so I can't give you any advice at the moment."
Qianhara Rinto gave her a confused look. I don't know if she is telling the truth or a lie. You have nothing to say. Why were you looking at me during the meeting just now?
Nishijima Rumi hesitated for a moment and said frankly: "I've been watching you just now... I'm sorry, I'm just a little confused. Aren't you worried about the current ratings?"
Chihara Rinto burst into laughter: "What's there to worry about? Do you know whose schedule these three dramas of ours have taken?" He counted his fingers to Nishijima Rumi, ""A Thousand Tricks of Family Life"
", this is a TV shopping program under the guise of a variety show that only sells microwave ovens, pans, and cleaning fluids. At least it is a precursor to TV shopping programs; "p-shop", this is a sitcom that sells point-and-shoot cameras by the way.
, and "Ramen Wars", a low-cost roadside street variety show, the average ratings of these three programs are only about 8%, which have been suppressed by other programs in the same period. Now we have average ratings of more than 9%.
It’s already a small improvement, so...what do we need to worry about?”
Nishijima Rumi is not a core member of the team. After all, she came too late and has some issues with her identity. Chihara Rinto did not tell her about preparing for the competition for the season championship. Only Murakami Iori, a hardcore among the hardcore, can do this.
I know that sending people to be cannon fodder cannot be said openly, otherwise it will damage morale and affect the subjective initiative of each crew.
Nishijima Rumi did not accept this statement and said directly: "Those programs are indeed terrible, I know that, but the new program is led by Chihara-san, and now the results are not good, aren't you worried about what the station will think of you?
"
Chihara Rinto was even more indifferent and said with a smile: "The need to win a season championship is a strategic requirement of the station, and if you look at the previous programs, you will know that they are just a bunch of mess, and you can't even get an advantage for one night. What else can you do?
I, who else is willing to accept this task, and who else can take on this task?"
After a pause, he added: "Winning the season championship requires concerted efforts. If Taili has wavered in its determination just because of poor initial results, then I don't think there is any need to compete for the season championship anymore. We might as well
Canceling this mission, what should everyone do? If you really want to compete for the season championship, the situation is so bad now, everyone in the station must trust me, so if things don't go well for a while, I don't think it matters."
Nishijima Rumi nodded silently, thinking that Chihara Rinto's words were okay, and also understood that his words had a hidden meaning. He probably hoped to remind his uncle, lest his uncle's faction would oppose him and cause trouble for him.
Yes, if the season championship is so easy to win, why should the station ask Rinto Chihara to coordinate everything?
Even if you can't get the title yourself, and even a bunch of bad programs that fill the time slot can't even guarantee the daily crown, then you need to ask him to take charge of the overall situation. At this time, you really should trust him unswervingly. There is no other way.
.
It's because I'm too impatient. As expected, I don't need to worry about anything now. If I do, I should wait until a few seasons later.
She admitted that what Chihara Rinto said was reasonable, and that his calmness was not a superficial behavior, but that he really knew what he was thinking. After understanding this, she said nothing more and silently followed Chihara Rinto back to the office. But when she was about to arrive at the office,
She suddenly found that she was half a step behind Qianhara Rinto, and she couldn't help but want to speed up her pace and walk half shoulder to shoulder with him, but she hesitated for a moment, did not do so, and just followed Qianhara Rinto in.
Another busy day followed, and as evening slowly passed, it was the turn of "Homeless Children" to be broadcast.
