At this moment, Inoue Morimata is nestling next to his mother and watching the TV series he starred in.

The mother picked up a handkerchief and looked at her daughter on the screen. She couldn't help but her eyes got hot and she wiped away tears.

"Morimata, you did a great job," my mother said.

"Mom, Mr. Fujiwara is very powerful. His previous dramas were very popular. After starring in this drama, the agent said that I will probably become famous and I can get a lot of endorsement and advertising fees." Inoue Mori continued.

Mom lowered her head slightly: "Thank you for the hard work, Morimata, it's all because of mom..."

"You said such things again, didn't we make an agreement? Don't say that again." Inoue Mori looked a little angry again.

"I know." Mom stroked Inoue Morimata's head, "Maybe it's because dad is blessing me from heaven, and Morimata has become a star."

Inoue Mori was silent for another moment, then seemed to deliberately change the subject and said, "Mom, I heard that Mr. Ishida seems to be interested in you."

Mr. Ishida is a small owner of a nearby fish shop. He is widowed and a middle-aged man with small assets.

Inoue Riho is only in her early thirties this year. She gave birth to Inoue Morimata at the age of nineteen. Because of her beauty, there are many middle-aged men pursuing her.

But most people are just pursuing casual love, but Mr. Ishida is the most sincere among the many suitors. Because he has been a widower for many years, he seems to be interested in starting a family with Riho Inoue.

"How did you find out?" Mom couldn't help but laugh out loud, and then suppressed her smile, "Mr. Ishida did express that meaning to me, but mom has already rejected him."

"Why refuse? Mom doesn't like Mr. Ishida?"

"Mr. Ishida is indeed a good man, but..." Mom sighed, "Mr. Ishida doesn't understand my situation, so it's not suitable. As for mom, Aimori is enough."

Inoue Sen lowered his head again, seeming to be thinking about something.

"Has Morimata been having a hard time filming recently?" Inoue Riho continued to ask, "Will the supervisor and screenwriter be very strict?"

Inoue Mori shook his head again: "Supervisor Kobayashi is a very kind person. Although Mr. Fujiwara is relatively strict, he is also very gentle to the young actors."

"Teacher Fujiwara is young and promising. He is a rare talent. You should ask him for advice more often."

"Okay..." Inoue Mori nodded again.

The next day, the ratings report appeared in the planning room. Mizuhara Yui saw the ratings performance of the first episode of "Homeless Children" last night and was speechless for a moment.

20.2%.

This is the worst first-run performance since Kei Fujiwara took over the prime time slot. It almost failed to finish second. Of course, a large part of the reason for this is also due to the influence of "Gemini Detective".

However, the creative team was not surprised. Kei Fujiwara had vaccinated them several days in advance. The ratings for this premiere may not be ideal, so everyone on the creative team was mentally prepared.

In fact, this result is slightly higher than Kei Fujiwara's expectation, because this drama is in another world, and its ratings itself start low and go up, and the ratings chart is a gradually upward slope.

It is completely different from the ratings model of "The Long Vacation".

The first episode of "Homeless Children" in the parallel world premiered with only 17.1% ratings, but it slowly increased later. The last episode even achieved ground-breaking results.

There was no problem with the quality of the work itself or the allocation of publicity resources. It was just better than the original work. Therefore, Kei Fujiwara was not worried. At the planning meeting, he only explained the arrangements for the subsequent shooting work and not much else.

say what.

At the same time, at the production committee meeting, a group of senior executives also looked at the ratings report.

"The performance of Taili Yuejiu's new drama this time seems not as strong as before."

After seeing the latest ratings report of "Homeless Children", Production Director Tsutoyo Yamaguchi said.

Other senior executives also agreed.

"Yeah yeah."

Kei Fujiwara's Yuejiu plan is now well known to everyone. Most of the high-level officials in Taiwan regard this plan with 70% doubt and 30% expectation.

If, as Kei Fujiwara envisions, he has his own trump card time slot, it means that Fukuyama Channel will be one step ahead of other commercial channels.

As the station director, Kashi Yoshida also gave Kei Fujiwara great trust and even gave him the responsibility for the entire September 9 period. However, as the director of the production bureau, Yamaguchi Tsutoyo was more or less dissatisfied.

Because Kei Fujiwara is not an employee of the production bureau, but is affiliated with the production company, as the performance of the September 9th time slot gets better and better, the production bureau's self-produced programs cannot enter this time slot, which makes Yamaguchi Tsutoyo a little anxious.

Yamaguchi Tsutoyo was a producer, and as an old man in the broadcast industry, he also had a very sharp vision. He realized that the September 9 plan proposed by Kei Fujiwara was not illusory. In fact, it was very possible to realize it, as long as there were continuous good projects.

The work can be used as support.

No one can guarantee that every work will be a hit, but it seems that Kei Fujiwara can...

The Moon Nine Plan may really come true...but in this case, wouldn't all the credit go to Mizuha Productions? Therefore, during this period of time, Yamaguchi Citoyo has been trying to break Kei Fujiwara's control over the Moon Nine time slot and let the production bureau's programs

Also participate in the 9th lunar month period.

But he had been embarrassed to speak before, because Yoshida Kashi said, "Can you guarantee that the production company's new drama can reach the heights of "Long Vacation" and "Furuhata"?" He was speechless, but "Homeless"

The ratings for the premiere of "The Child" made him see an opportunity.

Although it is a bit difficult to achieve the terrible 30% ratings of "Long Vacation", our production office is fully confident that it can achieve around 20%!

If Kei Fujiwara's level is only 20%, then there seems to be no need to make Yue Jiu his only thing...

Of course Yoshida Kashi knew what Yamaguchi Tsutoyo meant, but he still had a kind of trust in Fujiwara Kei.

This belief does not all come from Kei Fujiwara’s historical achievements, but more from his observations.

After the ratings for the premiere of "Homeless Children" were released, Yoshida Kafumi originally thought that the atmosphere on the crew would become tense. The results were not bad, but compared with the historical performance of Kei Fujiwara's team, they seemed to be a lot worse.

Just like a provincial top scorer who has only been admitted to an ordinary key university, he will still feel disappointed.

In addition, the opponent this time is Junaki Hidaka, a well-known bulldozer in the broadcast industry, so the atmosphere should be very depressing.

So he went to the filming base in person, intending to express his condolences, but found that the crew of "Homeless Children" was not as low-pressure as he imagined.

The creative team does not treat the working team members like other crews, who press hard and vent their anxieties to their subordinates as soon as their performance drops. The crew members all seem to maintain a good attitude, and they also have a sense of confidence in the future of the show.

Transcendent confidence:

The ratings of "Homeless Children" will definitely rise step by step!

This is not only a slogan used by the main creators to motivate people, but even an ordinary director's assistant in the crew seems to think so.

Morale was so high... Yoshida Kashi was surprised by this, and at the same time, this atmosphere of confidence also affected him.

"This is just the first broadcast ratings. It is normal to start low and go high," Yoshida Kashi said at the meeting.

"Of course, we believe in Fujiwara-san's ability." Yamaguchi Citoyo laughed and added again, "But Fujiwara-san is still too young after all. No matter how talented he is, he may not be able to make every program a hit.

He alone may not be able to support the entire nine-month period."

"So, maybe it would be better if the talented people from the production bureau are also responsible for this period. It would also relieve the pressure on Fujiwara-san."

Yoshida Kashi was silent for a moment and did not agree, but he also did not refuse directly. Yamaguchi Tsutoyo's statement also made some sense.

He lowered his head and glanced at Yue Jiu's ratings report again, raised his head and said, "Let's discuss this matter later, and wait for the follow-up of the drama "Homeless Children".

Watch it."

There is hope! Yamaguchi Tsutoyo's eyes lit up.
