Chapter 356 The overall situation is the most important
"Dad, what's going on with this money?" Hino Soichiro's wife opened the white envelope she just received and found ten ten thousand-yuan bills exuding a special fragrance. She couldn't help being pleasantly surprised and asked quickly: "
Is things getting better for TV stations?”
One hundred thousand yen is not much, not much, but at least it can greatly improve their daily life. At this time when the economic situation is quite severe, it is particularly valuable. After all, they don't have much savings.
Contrary to the perception of most people in China, not everyone in developed capitalist countries is very rich. It can only be said that the rich are extremely rich, while the poor are so poor that it is difficult to even think about being scum.
Take the United States as an example. 25% of people in the society cannot afford 2,000 US dollars for emergencies. That is to say, if you ask many families to suddenly take out more than 10,000 yuan, they will not be able to come up with it. Even 12.5% of people suddenly encounter changes and even 400 yuan.
I can't even withdraw US dollars, which can only be said to be extremely weak in resisting risks.
Of course, due to the influence of Chinese culture, Japan still attaches great importance to savings and has different consumption concepts. The situation is much better than that in Europe. However, the Hino family just bought a house and their children are still young. They are currently paying off the mortgage.
With very little savings, when faced with a series of blows such as the financial turmoil, currency depreciation, and shrinking of TV station funds, I felt a little breathless - the cost of living in Tokyo is already very high and the pressure is extremely high.
Could be better.
Hino Soichiro's wife was recently worried that her family's income, the only breadwinner, had dropped sharply, and she was about to make ends meet. Unexpectedly, her husband brought her money back quickly. Even if it couldn't solve the fundamental problem, it at least gave her family a breath of fresh air. It was very momentary.
I was so happy that I repeatedly rubbed the ten banknotes in my hand, but I couldn't get enough of them.
Seeing the happy expression on his wife's face, Hino Soichiro breathed a sigh of relief. His back straightened a lot, but he said dully: "The TV station is still like that."
He should be the person who hates Ohashi Eishi the most. Under the leadership of Chihara Rinto, his income was getting better day by day, his wife was gentle, his daughter was cute, and he was living a happy life. However, the new director came and the situation collapsed overnight.
Well, I heard that all the money was given to the newspaper, and the bank took it away, and the production bureau started eating bran collectively.
He couldn't understand why the bank had large-scale bad debts and couldn't continue to operate. Why should they be forced to eat rice bran? They didn't receive any salary from the bank!
But he was just a small lighting engineer, a dispensable member of the Kanto United Production Bureau. He was a slight person and could not change anything other than going with the flow. He could only hate it silently in his heart and endure it.
Hino Soichiro's wife didn't understand and asked: "The situation of the TV station has not improved, so this money... the father of the child, you didn't do anything special, right?"
Although life was difficult for a while, breaking the law and committing crimes was not an option. She was a little worried. There had been a lot of news about petty thefts and even robberies recently, but Hino Soichiro didn't hear it. His expression quickly became cheerful and he smiled: "
This line is the subsidy given to everyone by Special Agent Qian Yuan who made the movie."
"Movie?"
"Yes, it's called "The Camera Can't Stop"."
"Ah, this movie turned out to be made by you guys, I heard about it recently."
Hino Soichiro nodded, with a slight pride on his face for a moment. He felt very honored to be involved in the shooting of this kind of film, and then sighed: "It was specially shot for us by Special Agent Chihara. I heard that all the money earned was given to us.
, but he didn’t take any.”
He belongs to a poor family and works relatively many hours. This is the first time he paid 100,000 yen. He was very touched - there were no actors, no budget, and he couldn't even show it to the public, but Chihara Rinto just brought it with him.
A group of people created a miracle and finally helped him solve his urgent need.
He couldn't help but be moved. He was slightly excited and told his wife about the difficult production process. He lamented that everyone was panicking at the time, but when he saw Chihara Rinto join the crew and sat down at the director's chair, the entire crew was instantly moved.
It was a relieved scene, and finally he said excitedly: "This is just the first payment. I heard from Miss Murakami that Special Agent Qianyuan will divide as much as he wants. If nothing happens, there will be more later."
His wife was even more happy, "Can there be more?"
"It should be no problem." Hino Soichiro trusted Chihara Rinto very much and had no doubts at all. "Specialist Chihara never lies. He will definitely get another sum soon, and I heard there will be more. It seems
The film is very popular, the box office is getting better and better, and in the end each person may get one million yen."
"One million?" Hino Soichiro's wife felt even more relieved. With this extra income, the pressure on the family has been greatly reduced. She couldn't help but sigh: "Specialist Chihara is really an amazing person, he can help us like this."
Her husband is not a subordinate of Qianhara Rinto. If Qianhara Rinto spreads his hands and does nothing, no one can blame him. Now he can only say that he is amazing.
Hino Soichiro, an ordinary lighting engineer, also understood this and nodded vigorously: "Specialist Chihara is indeed an amazing person."
This is so rare in the workplace, so it goes without saying that when you encounter a boss like this, you have no other choice but to follow him to the death.
From today on, whenever Chihara Rinto makes a request, he will definitely work hard and will never frown. He will support him until death. Even if he has to take him away from the Kanto Federation, he will not hesitate at all.
He’s just afraid that people won’t want him!
…………
Almost at the same time, Ohashi Eiji stared at the director of the production bureau, Kawaguchi Takashi, and asked sternly: "What's going on? Isn't it just an independent film for practice? Why is the box office so high? What is the composition committee?
Aren't you hiding something for him?"
Kawaguchi Takashi also had a headache. He wiped the sweat from his head and explained: "This is absolutely not the case. It looks like a bridge. We are also very surprised when this happens."
He told the truth. He didn't give a budget, didn't give him a chance to go to theaters, didn't agree to contract actors, and didn't agree to use TV station equipment. Even most of the staff just went to help in private. The film was still shot extremely well.
It can be said that Chihara Rinto is capable of what others cannot do, and it is really not the fault of the production bureau - the production bureau has done everything it can do, so you can't tie Chihara Rinto up every day, right?
How is that possible? This is a TV station and not an illegal organization. There is no way to restrict personal freedom.
Ohashi Eishi was even more dissatisfied, and his voice became more severe: "Then let's just follow him and do whatever he wants?"
"This... we have asked Principal Murakami of the Film Operations Section to give an explanation. She said that this is just an attempt to perform the functions of the classroom and conduct film operations, and Chief Chihara also agreed to recognize that this work belongs to the TV station in accordance with the contract.
The operations department will distribute video tapes, CDs and peripherals after the screening, and the broadcast network can also use them free of charge..."
Ohashi Yingshi listened, his expression became more sinister, and he suddenly interrupted him: "Take the money back."
Kawaguchi Takashi was startled for a moment, then hesitantly said: "I heard that the current box office share has been distributed to ordinary staff..."
"Don't worry about the money that has been distributed. The next earnings will be brought back to Taiwan!"
Kawaguchi Takashi had already planned this, or the organizing committee was not stupid. After discovering that "The Camera Can't Stop" was likely to be a hit at the box office, he immediately asked Chihara Rinto to hand over the operating rights to the production office.
But Chihara Rinto has never been easy to talk to.
Kawaguchi Takashi hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head and said: "When the Film Operations Class was filming, they promised to use all the box office share to repay the remuneration. At that time, no one thought that the movie would still be profitable, and no one stopped her from signing a contract in the name of the class.
That... Principal Muraka is a cadre of our station. The contract she signed means that our station has agreed to it to a certain extent and has legal effect. If we want to cut off the subsequent box office share, we can only go through legal channels.
But Commissioner Qianyuan has said that the legal team he hired for ordinary staff can meet and negotiate with us at any time."
"Lawyer team?"
"He hired Aokiyama Law Firm as a private entity." It is not surprising for a person of Qianhara Rinto's status to have a private lawyer, but to hire more than ten or twenty lawyers, large and small, waiting to litigate in one go, is purely
Even those who have money to burn, Kawaguchi Takashi felt helpless when meeting such people, and said depressedly: "Moreover, the public is generally sympathetic to this matter. If it really goes to court, even if we can prove the invalidity of the contract,
The pressure from our public opinion will also be very high, and it is very likely to trigger a comprehensive boycott by the public. Now our ratings have..."
Eiji Ohashi was also a little speechless. Aokiyama Law Firm is quite famous and should be regarded as one of the most difficult legal teams in Tokyo. Let the legal department of the TV station compete with them in copyright, labor and other lawsuits. Who will lose?
It’s really hard to say who will win, and public opinion should really be taken into consideration. The current ratings results have caused widespread dissatisfaction. If the public boycotts it again, it will definitely make things worse, and it is very likely to trigger a chain collapse effect.
Although Kawaguchi Takashi is a member of the newspaper faction, he really doesn't want to have a conflict with Chihara Rinto over this matter at the moment. After all, this matter is ultimately a personal conflict between Ohashi Eiji and Chihara Rinto. The production bureau has nothing to lose and is working hard.
He persuaded: "Actually, like the bridge, Special Agent Qianyuan did this for us. At least it increased the income of ordinary staff and helped us reduce a lot of pressure. Especially during the Spring Festival, if we really have to forcibly intercept the flow of water,
, the union is very likely to take the opportunity to incite trouble, please...please put the overall situation first!"
Eishi Ohashi also pondered with a sullen face. As the airborne time on the TV station became longer and longer, he became more and more aware of the importance of ratings. In fact, he also regretted not paying much attention to Chihara Rinto, a small executive.
In this case, Chihara Rinto's attitude was obviously okay at the time, and he was basically cooperative.
This is all the Academy Award's fault, otherwise it wouldn't have developed to the point of being in a dilemma today.
He thought about it for a while, and felt that the overall situation should really be the priority, but he was not willing to do so. He slowly said: "This matter does not need to be pursued, and the box office does not need to be divided into Taiwan, but he must pay attention to the situation in Taiwan."
To compensate, he must come out to produce programs next season and bring the ratings back to above the average. The organizing committee will discuss this aspect with him, don’t... don’t mention my name, and don’t allow him to mention other rude things.
Require."
In his opinion, "The Camera Can't Stop" will probably earn tens of millions or at most hundreds of millions of yen in box office share. For a TV station, it is not a huge sum of money. If the money can be used to exchange for Senhara Rinto, it will be solved.
The current ratings crisis is not unacceptable - despite the additional investment, the ratings have still not improved. He is also a little anxious now, but it is still impossible to surrender to Chihara Rinto. It is not bad to have this opportunity in exchange.
.
Kawaguchi Takashi was not sure. He locked people in the basement and asked them to work hard at the same time. Only a spineless and weak person would be willing to do this. Basically, he couldn't even think about it, but for him, it could drag on for a day.
After counting one day and dealing with the present situation, I could only lower my head and say: "Yes, I understand. I will have a good talk with Special Agent Qianyuan."
