Tokyo Literary Godfather

Soon, another week passed, and the ratings of "The White Tower" were still strong, maintaining a high level of more than 30%. The ratings of "Blue Life and Death" increased a little, reaching 18%. Among the programs in the same period, Ranked third.

The ratings for the entire autumn season are even lower, falling out of the top ten.

When the first episode of "The White Tower" was broadcast, it was already at the top of the ratings list. By the second episode, it was further away from the second place. It can be expected that this drama will be the season champion or even the top spot again. Annual crown.

Judging from the current situation, the three works produced by Shuibo Productions after changing owners have become two, and the other one is mediocre. And the 17% score of "Blue Life and Death" is not too bad, just mediocre.

Two of the three dramas started off well. Such results are already very good for the company Shuibo Productions, but for Fanxing TV, it feels more or less aggrieved.

Yoshimitsu Ishii, director of the production bureau and deputy director of Fanxing Channel, looked at the ratings report of the two episodes of "Blue Life and Death Love" and sighed.

Fanxingtai's performance in the past two years has been close to the bottom, so he did not hesitate to cooperate with Fujiwara Kei's Miwa Production, but unexpectedly it did not seem to have any great results.

The score at the beginning was more than ten percent. If this was just the score of an ordinary TV person's work, it would be pretty good. Ishii Yumitsu might even encourage him in public to keep up the good work. But the producer of this movie is that man... a man who has already achieved a high-level status in the broadcasting industry at a young age. He has made achievements that others cannot achieve in his lifetime within three years of his debut, so such achievements seem a bit pale.

"If this is the only result, the production bureau headquarters can also do it... There is no need to spend a lot of money and work with that person." Ishii Yu said heartily.

"Director Ishii, Mr. Fujiwara is here." At this time, the secretary knocked on the door and said to Ishii Yumitsu.

"Oh, okay." Ishii Yumitsu said, stood up, readjusted his mentality, and walked out of the office. After seeing Kei Fujiwara in the reception room, he greeted him with a smile still on his face.

Although the ratings of the drama "Blue Life and Death" are not particularly ideal, Ishii does not dare to blame Fujiwara Kei for it. Dongfang Invincible is a legend. It is normal to have unsatisfactory results occasionally, but it is still a bit depressing when it happens to me.

What's more, the results of the other two dramas broadcast in the same quarter as "Blue Life and Death" are very good. If they really break up, it's not clear whose fault it is... Anyway, now the director of the TV station has heard the ratings of the TV series. The rate was not particularly ideal. I did not question Kei Fujiwara at the first time. Instead, I suspected that the production bureau was not fully cooperating with Mizunami Production. This made Ishii Yuman full of grievances. He was just like a little daughter-in-law in front of Fujiwara Kei. He was told one thing but not the other. How could this be called uncooperative?

"Teacher Fujiwara, thank you for your hard work. I would like to trouble you to come here in person." Ishii Yumitsu stepped forward and shook hands with Fujiwara Kei.

"It doesn't matter, we should cooperate with the TV station's promotional activities." Kei Fujiwara said.

"Please come with me."

In fact, this kind of event can be contacted by his subordinates, but Ishii Yumitsu deliberately received it in person, precisely because he was worried about Fujiwara Keido and felt that Fanxingtai's attitude was indifferent because the results did not meet expectations. Fanxing TV is still very optimistic about Fujiwara Kei's ability, and the production bureau has also quietly held a meeting to discuss it. Even if the TV series' revenue is average, it doesn't matter, and it will still maintain a cooperative relationship with Mizuha Productions.

The few of them walked while chatting. Because Kei Fujiwara yawned several times and seemed a little out of sorts, Ishii Yumitsu suggested buying two cups of coffee at the coffee shop in the company's internal campus. Kei Fujiwara agreed.

After the two bought the coffee, they sat down in the store and drank it.

There was a very tall money tree behind Kei Fujiwara. A voice suddenly came from behind the money tree:

"Our program's ratings have been very poor recently. If it doesn't improve, it may be cut in half..."

"This quarter, the programs in the station are generally in a slump. Don't talk about us. Even the much-anticipated Fujiwara drama has mediocre ratings. It's just a little higher than ours... ahem."

"Haha, is it even a bit high if it's twice as high? But what you said makes sense. At first, the station predicted that this drama would get a ratings of more than 25, but now it's really far from it. It seems that Mr. Fujiwara Not always so brave, hahaha..."

The money tree blocked the people on both sides so that they could not see each other, but they could hear the voices on the other side clearly.

Ishii Yumitsu was extremely embarrassed. Fujiwara Keinori just smiled and glanced at Ishii Yumitsu. Ishii Yumitsu reacted. Did he think this was a deliberate arrangement by me?

In any case, this is extremely embarrassing. Just as Ishii Yoshimitsu was thinking about running to the other side of the fortune tree to teach these two casually noisy guys a lesson, Fujiwara Kei took a sip of coffee and said without hearing : "Director Ishii, I remember you mentioned to me that Koganei Animation Studio seems to have internal conflicts recently, and several founders seem to be planning to leave. Can you tell me about this?"

Hearing Kei Fujiwara's voice and the words "Director Ishii" on the other side of the rich tree, they fell silent immediately, and one of them stood up and sneaked a look here, and Yumi Ishii glared fiercely. One look at him scared him so much that he crouched down quickly.

"Cough cough." Yumi Ishii coughed twice, thinking that Kei Fujiwara was deliberately changing the subject, talking about something, just to avoid embarrassment, so he also borrowed the donkey and said: "That's it, because this studio One of the investors is Toei, so we also got the news here."

Tokyo Pictures, one of the five major film companies, is an affiliate of Fanxing TV. The relationship between the two is like Fukuyamadai and Shochiku Pictures.

"It's a pity. I remember that this studio is still a start-up, right? It is composed of many outstanding animators, and the first work was very popular." Kei Fujiwara asked, "But why?"

"The production concepts are different." Ishii Yumitsu answered honestly.

"Production concept?" Kei Fujiwara was a little puzzled, "It is inevitable that there will be deviations in the creative concepts of different creators. Since there are deviations, it is good that different people create different works, and it is not impossible to even run a business together. Bar?"

"That's the creative style, and the difference between them is related to technology..." Ishii Yumitsu said, "After all, it has entered a new era. Many animation companies have started to use computers for painting on a large scale many years ago, but Koganei's A few animators with conservative styles still stubbornly insist on hand-drawing..."

"What's the point?" Kei Fujiwara was a little nonchalant, "If you like to use hand-painted, you can do it. If you like to use a computer, you can use a computer. It doesn't matter if there are more styles in a studio."

Yoshimitsu Ishii smiled: "That being said... Koganei is limited in scale after all, it is just a studio rather than a club. It cannot accommodate so many animators with different ideas to create works of different styles at the same time. Toei As an investor, I also hope that this studio can embrace the times. After all, computer technology is the biggest driving force leading the video industry forward..."

Kei Fujiwara nodded and didn't say anything else, but he thought to himself—how could he not get involved in the animation industry when he was doing entertainment in Japan?

But Water Wave Production doesn’t have an animation department yet…
