Tokyo Literary Godfather

Chapter 439 The Tortoise and the Hare

In addition to stocks, Yoshida Kashi also invested in two small clubs doing foreign trade business. These stocks and club shares accounted for nearly 40% of all his property.

He is not a particularly proficient person in investing. When he was in the 1980s, he spent a lot of money to buy a luxury house in Tokyo. However, after the economic bubble burst in the early 1990s, the house price dropped to less than 20%, which made him grin. Although he bought the mansion to live in rather than invest in it, it still left a lasting impression on him. Having suffered a big loss, he was particularly obedient to advice.

Kei Fujiwara's words really made him think seriously about whether he should change his property allocation structure.

While thinking about it, a loud noise came. A car accidentally hit a street tree to avoid cats and dogs, making a huge noise.

Pedestrians on the street exclaimed, and of course some people looked like they couldn't see it. They continued to raise their wrists to look at their watches, and walked forward faster with their briefcases in hand.

"Accidents can happen at any time." Fujiwara Kei said, holding coffee and sipping while looking at the place where the accident occurred.

Kashi Yoshida broke into a cold sweat unconsciously. He looked at Kei Fujiwara and said, "Fujiwara-san, can you introduce me to the friend who told you these words?"

"Oh, him..." Kei Fujiwara scratched his face and said, "He went abroad... China, yes. Didn't I tell you? The theory of China's collapse is nonsense. This country was the most powerful country decades ago. It didn't collapse when it was close to death, let alone now. This country has great potential. So my friend plans to invest locally to expand his assets. I heard that China is now very welcoming to foreign businessmen."

Yoshida Kashi asked: "Doesn't China have the [landmine] you just mentioned?"

"My friend told me... China has enough ability to withstand crises, the government makes decisions quickly enough, domestic demand is large enough, foreign exchange reserves are sufficient... and so on. I don't remember more specific reasons. I will ask him another day."

Yoshida Kaishi stared at Kei Fujiwara for a while, then lowered his head and ate his own butter and croissant. He had a feeling that all friends were made up by Kei Fujiwara, and the so-called friend was probably himself. What he just said is most likely his own opinion. As for why he would shirk his views to a non-existent character?

Yoshida Kashi is not particularly clear. One reason may be that he is very confident in his own judgment and believes that these things are destined to happen, but he does not want others to really treat him as an economist...

Thinking about it, Yoshida Kashi took a bite of bread.

The reason why Kei Fujiwara told Yoshida Kashi this was not just out of friendship. The main reason was that he didn’t want Yoshida Kashi, as one of the decision-makers of his company, to have big problems with his personal finances, otherwise it would be detrimental to him. Not a good thing either.

As for the [friend] he talked about, Yoshida Kaishi most likely didn't believe it, and Fujiwara Kei knew it in his heart... It didn't matter, tacit understanding was already a necessary skill in society. He would never hold a gun and ask how he knew.

Finally entered the winter season. There is some lingering heat in autumn today, but unusually the temperature did not cool down as soon as the month came. Many people on the street were still wearing autumn clothes.

Although the weather is not like winter, the winter TV series are broadcast on time.

Whether it is "White Tower" or "Blue Life and Death", they have entered the second half of the game at this moment, and they are holding back their energy and want to show it to the audience.

This is especially true for the production team of "Blue Life and Death" headed by Juri Okada, Masugetsu Miyabe and others. Since they initially had the idea of ​​​​competing with "White Tower", the results of the first half were far inferior to the opponent. , so I hope to regain my place in the second half, and I have the idea of ​​avenging shame.

So when they entered the filming of the second half, not only did they not slack off, but they became more serious and cautious, delving into the details.

In comparison, "The White Tower" seems a bit Buddhist. Although I can't say I'm slacking off, I still complete my daily shooting tasks very diligently. But it lacks the tension that tenses the nerves all the time in the early days, and the fighting spirit that always boils the blood. On the contrary, I am confident that the ratings of the second half can only be high, and there will never be a work that surpasses it in the same period, let alone "Blue Life and Death".

Juri Okada noticed the influence of [competitors], so he began to use the story of [The Tortoise and the Hare] internally to motivate employees. In her words, "Blue Life and Death Love" is the turtle that starts slowly but never slacks off and goes in forever, while the opponent "White Tower" is the stupid rabbit that runs fast at the beginning but falls asleep in the middle.

After Nishimura Taro found out about Okada Juri's internal speech, he just smiled and dismissed it.

After the first episode of the second half of "The White Tower" was aired, as expected, the ratings were higher than any episode of the first half. Compared with the works of the same period, it was also unparalleled.

"The White Tower" airs on Saturday, six days after the first week of the winter season. Although Sunday has not come yet, as of Saturday, the first episode of any work has not had higher ratings than the first episode of the second half of "The White Tower". The second place in ratings was a full 5 percentage points lower than this show.

The Fukuyama Tsukiji drama in this winter season seems to have weakened in power, with the first episode only having a ratings of around 15.

There is no opponent to beat on Sunday... It seems that there is no problem for this drama to maintain the number one spot throughout the winter season.

Early on Sunday morning, Nishimura Taro nodded with satisfaction as he held the fresh and hot ratings report from last night.

There are not many prime-time dramas on Sunday, except for a mystery drama from NBC, which is...

Nishimura Taro subconsciously looked outside the office door, the TV series poster of "Blue Life and Death" pasted on the outer wall of the company corridor.

With the audience accumulation of this drama in the first half, the ratings of the second half should increase slightly. However, after all, the base gap is too big. No matter how much it grows, it should not be able to surpass his "White Tower" .

When Nishimura Taro thought of this, his whole body immediately relaxed, and all his energy was relieved. He leaned limply on the office chair with a soft and wide backrest, and then hummed a song comfortably.

Victory is decided.

The ratings of "White Giant Tower" are still increasing every episode, and I don't know what level it will eventually rise to... Will it surpass "Naoki Hansawa"? Haha, that doesn't seem like much hope, but it's as close as you can get...and it's not entirely hopeless.

Although I don’t know what the final results will be like, what is certain is that both the average and highest ratings of this drama will reach a considerable height.

Not to mention season crown, in the three seasons of spring, summer and autumn before this winter file, there is no work with a data score that exceeds that of "The White Tower". As long as he dominates this winter again, he will also be the number one in the ratings for the whole year...

It is his first time directing a work as the main director, and he can achieve such high results. After this campaign, he will undoubtedly gain a higher status in the broadcasting industry. If he is lucky enough to win a few more awards... then Nishimura Taro can be said to have survived. In these years of working in the broadcasting industry, the grievance of barely having a full night's sleep can be healed.

Nishimura Taro stared at himself in the mirror and the dark spots under his eyes, feeling that all these years of suffering were worth it.

Of course, the reason why we can achieve such good results is also the credit of President Fujiwara, and it is inseparable from his writing... Of course, the main credit is mine...

Nishimura Taro thought happily, but this idea lingered in his mind for less than ten seconds before he quickly opened his eyes alertly, sat on a chair, and shook his head.

Really... I almost got carried away...

Kei Fujiwara is not the only director who is popular. If he gets carried away by standing on the shoulders of giants for a little bit, he will definitely fall miserably. So that kind of thinking, just occasionally fantasizing is fine, and it must not be taken seriously.

After all, I am just a fallen leaf floating in the wind, and the wind that lifts me up is just a passing giant waving his sleeves...

Thinking of this, Nishimura Taro smiled helplessly and shook his head. He is also a creator, with the pride and jealousy of a creator. However, facing a creative genius like President Fujiwara, he can't even feel jealousy, only deep admiration.

It would be great if I could have half, no, even a third of Fujiwara-sensei's creative talent. Nishimura Taro thought to himself.

And at this moment, Nishimura Taro's right eye suddenly jumped violently.

Nishimura Taro's smile froze immediately, and subconsciously pressed his fingers on his eyelids.

what's the situation?

The right eyelid twitches...is it a good thing or a bad thing?
