The workplace is made up of countless choices. The right choices make people rise step by step, and eventually reach the top, while the wrong choices make people suffer constant setbacks and eventually sink to the bottom.
Murakami Iori lowered his head in thought. His two thin eyebrows knitted together and then unclenched, and then loosened and knitted together again. They struggled for a long time. It was so long that the coffee had gone cold before he raised his head and asked, "Qianhara-san, what do you want?"
She made her choice. She believed that the situation mentioned by Chihara Rinto was in line with the current status of the television industry. The theory was also very novel and at least it could be justified. Moreover, the project was very good and the script was very novel. It was worth taking a gamble on her career. After all, she was a
Women are inherently weaker than men in the workplace. Instead of competing head-on with men for good time slots, it is better to use this reliable plan and script to gamble on the bad time slots that are easy to apply for.
He doesn't seek to create any miracles, nor does he seek high ratings. As long as this man's theory is a little bit correct, and the final rating is a bit higher than the current average nighttime ratings, then he has initially proved his ability.
It would be easier to apply for other good time periods, or even if you can get 4%...
No, it’s impossible to have 4%. Don’t think too wonderfully. Just 3% will be enough. 3% will be considered a small miracle!
She decided to take the risk, but it had not been a year or two since she entered the society, and her innocence had long since worn off. Qianhara Rinto waited at the door to ask for a meeting, handing over an interesting script and a perfect plan. It was impossible to do this.
Good deeds.
This is an unspoken deal: Chihara Rinto gave her this project, and she needs to let Chihara Rinto get the return he wants.
Therefore, she had to ask, otherwise if she just said "thank you" and packed the things, she would probably be labeled an "idiot" in the other person's mind.
After hearing her question, Qianhara Rinto felt that the goal he had chosen was really powerful. Unlike ordinary women, mothers-in-law would have to think about buying a cucumber for three days. Then he said unceremoniously: "I want to be the only screenwriter of the crew.
.”
People should be greedy, which is commonly known as being bold and winning.
He is not planning to make a wedding dress for others or share his fame with others. As long as he has a successful work, he will officially enter this semi-closed circle of TV people. Whether he stays in Tokyo to broadcast TEB in the future or finds another talent,
It will be much easier.
After proving that he is a thousand-mile horse, naturally Bo Le will flock to him. If he still can't find a chance to prove himself, then he will probably be the one pulling the cart. Reputation is an important capital for him to support himself and even lead to success. He must get it all, all of it.
It leaves people speechless and beyond doubt.
Murakami Iori was taken aback and asked hesitantly: "Chihara-san, you may not be familiar with the production process of TV series. There is only one screenwriter in a crew. That is unlikely. After all, if you have one episode a week, you can write it yourself."
Are you coming?"
After she finished questioning, she was afraid that Qianhara Rinto would misunderstand, so she quickly added: "Of course, if the application is approved, you will be the main creative writer, but if there are no episode writers or screenwriter assistants..."
In Japan, the history of filming TV dramas has been very long. It is no longer the original era where filming could only be done with a three-line script. At that time, TV dramas were broadcast live. Similar to today's sketches, they basically relied on the free play of the actors. After that,
After so many years of development, the division of labor in TV drama production is now very clear. For screenwriters alone, there are subdivisions such as main creator, episodes, lines, assistants, etc.
For example, in a season of twelve episodes, the main creative writer writes the outline, the first and second episodes set the tone, the fifth and sixth episodes ensure that the plot does not deviate, the eleventh and twelfth episodes ensure that the entire story expresses the connotation of the expression, and then the other episodes are determined by
The episode screenwriter is responsible for it, and to be more particular, there is also a dedicated line writer who carefully picks out the lines and is responsible for making the final point...
Iori Murakami has also been in the industry for four or five years. She started as a crew clerk and has been a production assistant now. I have never seen such a screenwriter who wants to do all the work by himself. I have seen more producers who are famous.
He asked the screenwriter for a script, but the screenwriter told him that he would rather die than hand over the script.
"Sorry, it's still a little short."
"Sorry, I need to change it again."
"I don't think it's right. I need to calm down and think about it carefully."
"Please, please give me some more time."
She has heard this kind of thing a lot, and she even heard a producer who was so popular that he threatened to kill the screenwriter in the office... Of course, it was just an angry comment made due to excessive pressure, and he has not actually killed him yet.
As for Chihara Rinto having written it all a long time ago, she thinks it is impossible. There is a reason why TV series are being filmed while being broadcast. They need to listen to audience feedback and constantly make corrections. Many of them were even cut in half due to poor ratings.
If you have written it all early, you may end up with nothing but waste paper, a sheer waste of time and energy. This is the same as later generations of online articles. I have never heard of anyone publishing the entire book after finishing it.
She was afraid that Chihara Rinto was young, arrogant and ignorant and could take over everything, so she tried to persuade him, but Chihara Rinto was very insistent: "Ms. Murakami, this is my only request."
He doesn't care about salary. Anyway, even if he wants to go on a hunger strike after joining the crew, the producer Iori Murakami is probably more anxious than him and must keep him fed. Then what he cares about is that he needs this blockbuster opportunity in the future and needs an independent screenwriter.
It is a gimmick that is a big hit. This is the only thing that cannot be compromised. Otherwise, what if the episode scriptwriter is a veteran and we compete with him for credit?
Maybe not, but it's better not to give unexpected opportunities.
At most, he would persist for another week and look for new small producers. He could not even get close to the famous big producers. Those people were very busy and had screenwriters who had worked with him for many years, so they would not pay attention to him at all.
At the same time, he was also very prudent in his work. This project and script were all filed with the Screenwriters Guild. There are two main post-war revitalization policies formulated by Japan: one is self-sufficiency in agricultural products; the other is to build a nation through science and technology.
The self-sufficiency of agricultural products has caused the prices of fruits and vegetables in Japan to be quite ridiculous, and to build a country through science and technology, we need to protect innovation. Japan’s copyright protection is very strict. Even if you order a song on KTV, you have to pay the original author (included in the singing fee)
), if Murakami Iori dares to steal his plan and script, he will risk his reputation and career. In this industry, plagiarism is a taboo. If it were not confirmed to be a parallel world, Chihara Rinto would be a time traveler.
I don’t dare to copy it casually.
It was a movie made in 1995, and the script might have been published in 1985 by an inconspicuous literary work. He really couldn't copy it and he didn't dare to copy it. He didn't believe that Iori Murakami would dare. She was originally a disadvantaged group in the workplace. If she tried to commit suicide again,
With his acting style, he must have cooled down a long time ago, and it’s no longer his turn to come to your door.
He insisted on this, and Iori Murakami didn't know what to say.
She felt that Chihara Rinto was talented and knowledgeable. Although this plan was radical, it did have the possibility of success. She was not as confident about the one that was better than the modest one she was about to submit. She was just going to try her luck.
She did like the script, but his request was very embarrassing. She was thinking of a way, and took the opportunity to pick up the coffee and prepare to take a sip. However, she found that the coffee was already cold, so she put the cup down again, lowered her eyelids and tried: "If you follow
Can’t keep up with the filming progress…”
No matter how you think about it, it is too exaggerated for one person to do the work of five or six people. Writing a script is not like pulling a carrot...
"Then I have no objection to finding an episode writer." Chihara Rinto is not an unreasonable person. Anyway, he can definitely write it.
Iori Murakami immediately breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she is not stubborn, then cooperation will be no problem. A smile appeared on her face again and she stretched out her hand: "Happy cooperation, Chihara-san, I will start perfecting the plan tomorrow.
, try to submit it as soon as possible.”
She also needs to compile some audience market analysis, add data such as target groups, and estimate the funds, equipment and personnel that need to be applied for, but these are not difficult.
Qianhara Rinto was actually very anxious, but he didn't show it on his face. He stretched out his hand to shake her hand, which represented that the two of them had reached a cooperation intention of utilizing each other. He smiled and said: "Happy cooperation!"
However, his current financial situation is really bad. The original owner hasn’t paid next year’s rent, and it’s already December! He couldn’t help but ask, “How long will it take for there to be news?”
Iori Murakami did some calculations, and now that there are new satellite channels, Tokyo Broadcasting TEB needs a lot of new programs, otherwise she would not want to steal the opportunity to become a producer. The opportunity was just right, and she smiled and said: "It can be done in three days at most.
There is news, but I think the possibility of making a late-night drama with this plan and script is very high."
Anyway, this was the first time she had seen this type of work, and she found it very novel. She thought she would also like it if she came to form a committee.
"Then I'll wait for three days. This is the phone number of my apartment management office." Chihara Rinto couldn't hang himself on a tree like Iori Murakami, so he directly agreed on a time and left his contact information.
If it fails, he will go to another TV station to find a good candidate, and then try to fool that one.
Murakami Iori said hello and gave Chihara Rinto a business card with her office phone number and paging number on it. At the same time, she put away the scripts and the like. Then she glanced at the wall clock in the cafe and found that the time had already passed.
It was almost nine o'clock, and now was not the time to discuss the script in detail. I couldn't help but look at Chihara Rinto. She was already eager to get back to work. She was supposed to submit a plan this week and participate in the competition for new producers. Now there is
She got a better and more reliable project, and she became more enthusiastic. She had to improve it quickly and submit it as soon as possible.
The workplace is sometimes about racing against time.
Qianhara Rinto understood instantly and had no intention of wasting her time. He stood up and took out his wallet, smiling and saying: "It's already very late, so I won't waste Miss Murakami's time. If the plan can be approved, we can discuss it in detail."
If the plan fails, it will be useless no matter how much the two of you talk about now.
He was about to buy the order. Although the current financial situation was a bit difficult, he could not lose his manly demeanor. Unexpectedly, Murakami Iori also took out his wallet and said with a smile: "Let's make it aa!"
Qianhara Rinto said a few polite words, but seeing that she was really insisting, he had no choice but to give up. He was secretly surprised: I didn't expect that this Miss Murakami was a true feminist. She wanted to be like men in everything and was not willing to enjoy the conventional treatment of a lady.
This is much better than the female boxers of the 21st century. Those bastards enjoy privileges first, and can't even see their tails when they take responsibility. They are really like dogs...
The two of them paid a fee each and left the cafe together. At this time, it was already a little windy. Murakami Iori shivered from the small breeze and quickly said to Rinto Chihara: "It seems to be raining, Chihara."
Sang also needs to go home quickly and be careful not to catch a cold."
She has somewhat entered the role of producer, for fear that the screenwriter will be ill. Although the screenwriter is inconspicuous, it is the cornerstone of a TV series, just like the foundation of a house. No matter how skilled the person who builds the house is, he will not finish the work first.
Gotta wait.
Chihara Rinto smiled and said hello, watched Murakami Iori leave, and then turned around and walked home.
Very good, the plan went unexpectedly smoothly, maybe the first job will be available in three days.
