Tokyo Literary Godfather

The ratings of the third episode directly exceeded 30.8%, breaking three faster than Kei Fujiwara expected, and this was despite interference from other TV stations.

Three popular dramas were aired at the same time, bringing a lot of "new blood" to the period of September 9th, and attracted some viewers who were engaged in other entertainment activities during this period.

Although the Internet has not yet emerged in this era, the entertainment projects of the old era are also extremely rich and attractive. Comics, mahjong, small steel balls, karaoke studios and movie theaters are all competing with televisions for customers.

Although Japan's economic situation has been declining in the 1990s, the entertainment industry has been nourished. Anyway, there is no hope for a career, so what else can you do if you don't play?

Not only has the television industry ushered in a golden decade, but so has the publishing industry. In March last year, Japan's most famous weekly comic magazine "Weekly Shōnen Jump" sold an unprecedented 6 million copies, setting a sales miracle for weekly publications.

The "Spring and Autumn Literature Appreciation" that Kei Fujiwara has been contributing to has repeatedly broken sales records, reaching one million sales, and is quite likely to become the leading literary journal.

Nobu Kawaguchi knew that the high sales of his magazine were inseparable from Kei Fujiwara's fame. Ever since "Genius Detective Mitate Washiyoshi" caused a sensation, the sales of "Spring and Autumn Bunkan" magazine have hit new highs repeatedly.

The editorial department knows that a good author can bring huge benefits to the magazine, so while planning to keep Kei Fujiwara in their own magazine, they also spend time looking for potential authors, hoping to unearth another Kei Fujiwara.

The editors of the editorial department have demonstrated the goal of "discovering another Kei Fujiwara" in the past year. Editor Shimada was so unashamed at the time that the loss of Kei Fujiwara, a great master, became a matter known to everyone in the editorial department and became a standard negative teaching material.

However, even after a lot of effort, we did find several authors who could write good works, but none of them could reach the level of Kei Fujiwara.

Even if Kei Fujiwara divides his time between filming TV series and writing, no author can beat him in terms of works. This seems more or less abnormal in the eyes of the editorial office and other authors, and it also causes a sense of frustration among many fellow writers.

And after the setback, you got used to it. After all, it's not surprising that Virgo has sold millions, received hundreds of millions in royalties, and was rewarded by Naoki.

So now before the ranking results of each issue of "Readers' Favorite Works" come out, everyone is guessing who the second place is, because there is no suspense about the first place, guessing is boring, bah.

The Yuejiu War has gradually become more intense. This "battle" that has attracted much attention in the broadcast industry was caused by the suppression measures adopted by foreign stations because they did not want to see Fukuyama Television becoming the dominant one in Yuejiu.

However, it seems that the development of things is somewhat beyond the expectations of NBC and Fanxing Channel.

As time goes by, the ratings of "Naoki Hansawa" have been steadily improving, and even increased more steadily than during the period of "Homeless Children", while "My Ex-Husbands 2" and "Kyoto" The ratings performance of "Lovers' Notes" has experienced serious fluctuations.

At the same time as the third episode of "Hansawa Naoki" was aired, the fourth episode of "My Ex-Husbands" and the second episode of "Kyoto Lovers' Notes" were also officially aired.

The ratings of the two dramas actually fell instead of rising, and dropped by nearly two percentage points.

Seeing the ratings performance of these two dramas, the program teams of NBC and Fanxing Channel held meetings overnight to make changes in the hope of saving the ratings.

However, Kei Fujiwara was not surprised and did not think that the temporary changes they made would have much effect. No nonsense, the main audience of the two dramas overlapped. The two dramas were intended to attack "Naoki Hansawa", but the two of them fought together.

Not only that, maybe because of the popularity of "Homeless Child" and "Housewife Mita", this spring TTV and East Island Channel are also broadcasting family dramas or romantic dramas with housewives as the main audience. Although There won't be any big competition, but the ratings will be shared equally.

Four dramas, at the same time, competing for the attention of the same group of people, it’s strange that the data is good.

After all, it was also influenced by Kei Fujiwara... The ratings of "Homeless Child" and "Housewife Mita" were so good that they affected the judgment of the top executives at the external station. Unexpectedly, when they followed Fujiwara's lead, When the rut of Kei's road to success continued, Kei Fujiwara jumped off the bus and took a different path.

It is a professional drama, and it is a men's drama set in the banking industry. It is completely contrary to the previous drama production style. However, the style has changed drastically, but what remains unchanged is that it can still maintain amazingly high ratings.

No matter who he is, as long as he is working in the broadcast industry, he admires Kei Fujiwara immensely at this moment.

To borrow a boastful saying from Feng Xiaogang: Whatever you make will have a box office, if you make entertainment movies you will get a box office, and if you make serious movies that are not entertainment, they will still have a box office. Maybe it's higher than that entertainment guy. I can't help it. Find someone who can surpass me.

Of course, Feng Xiaogang, who said this, obviously misjudged his own strength. Later, the serious movie "1942" he shot failed miserably at the box office, so he started calling the audience trash again.

However, this sentence is somewhat applicable to the current Kei Fujiwara: anything you film will have ratings, films with women will have ratings, and films with non-women and men will still have ratings. Maybe it's higher than that woman's show. There's no other way. Who can surpass me? Find one for me.

Of course, Kei Fujiwara would not be so stupid as to say such a thing. The feeling of being slapped in the face would not be pleasant.

…

"When did you and Miss Matsuo get together?"

Fujiwara Kei called Miyata Takaharu directly to the office and asked directly without being secretive.

More and more people know about the relationship between Matsuo Yoko and Miyata Takaharu, and it has almost become an open secret among the crew.

It seems that the two of them did not deliberately conceal it. In this case, Fujiwara Kei did not pretend to know anything anymore and asked directly face to face.

Miyata Takaliang was a little embarrassed and said: "It didn't take long, almost in October last year."

"We knew each other at that time?"

Miyata Takaharu nodded, "In June last year, I went to participate in a stage play. The person in charge of the troupe met Miss Matsuo. We met at a dinner party... In October, we were together..."

Fujiwara Kei said nothing, and Miyata Takaharu quickly added: "Ms. Matsuo has actually been officially separated from her ex-husband for more than two years, and it was only made public to the media in January last year."

Fujiwara Kei patted his shoulder, "I have no right to comment on your personal affairs, but you and Ms. Matsuo are both on the rise in their careers. Ms. Matsuo has just divorced, which is a sensitive time... Now, neither you nor "Half" "Naoki Sawa", the foundation is still unstable, do you understand what I mean?"

Miyata Takaharu was a little embarrassed, "I'm really sorry, I will pay attention... I will pay attention to my interactions with Miss Matsuo during this period."

"Don't frequent the other party's residence during this period. If you find that you have been photographed, you will report it to me, understand?" Fujiwara Kei said.

Although the news of the relationship between Matsuo Yoko and Miyata Takaharu will definitely increase the exposure of the drama once it is published in the newspapers, it may also arouse the public's imagination and produce negative effects.

"Naoki Hansawa" relies on plot to win. For insurance reasons, it is best not to take this risky move. After all, this is Japan, where the ethics of artists are highly valued, which is completely different from the culture in Hollywood.

As long as you wait until "Hanzawa Naoki" is finished, it won't matter what kind of gossip there is, or even directly reveal the relationship.

In order for the show to grow healthily and ensure that there are no mistakes, Kei Fujiwara and Yui Mizuhara decided to give them a proper reminder. So Mizuhara Yui and Fujiwara Kei looked for them separately.

Through his connections in magazines and the introduction of Nobu Kawaguchi, Kei Fujiwara met several presidents of gossip publications. After a few meals, he officially became "friends" with these paparazzi leaders.

The presidents of these gossip publications also promised Fujiwara Kei that if they discovered any information about Fukuyamadai artists, they would not expose it immediately. Instead, they would notify Fujiwara Kei in advance. For the sake of their friends, the price would not be disclosed. Easy to discuss.
