"It's not our drama that's funny, it's the people in the drama that are funny. The contrast in the plot is not intentional on our part, but because the people in the drama have such personalities, and we want the audience to feel this." "Only in this way can we make people excited when it is time to be exciting and make people laugh when it is time to be funny." Today's TV dramas have long since moved away from the completely nonsensical and funny style. Just like the previous life. "I'm the Big Brother" and "The Brave One" Two dramas. It seems that both dramas are of nonsensical and funny style, and even the director is the same person, but in later generations, "I'm the Big Boss" is obviously much more popular. The ratings in Japan were also much higher. At its core, in addition to the theme of bad boys, the more important thing is that "I'm the Big Brother" can still be exciting when it needs to be exciting. This kind of nonsense, inserting serious drama into the drama to improve the overall style and level, is actually the best in the animation "Gintama"
To some extent, the movie version of Doraemon also counts. Chapter 140 Johnny's Girl Group "Director Shan, what do you mean by shooting a comedy in a serious drama style?" “This is actually quite simple.” Ping Qingshan also thought about this matter for a long time, and the main object of his analysis was actually Gintama. As a comedy animation, Gintama has its own unique features in character portrayal. Ping Qingshan liked to watch Gintama in his previous life. In this life, in order to shoot this TV series, he analyzed a lot of useful information from the perspective of the script, so he can also talk about it with others. After a period of analysis, Ping Qingshan suddenly heard applause and quickly turned around to look. It turned out to be an old acquaintance and the current sponsor of Pingqingshan Studio, Hideki Kawamura, who came in. Kawamura Hideki clapped his hands and said, "As expected of you, Mr. Shan. You said it very well. I really hope to invite you to our Tokyo TV station to give another lesson." Ping Qingshan also smiled and said politely, "Director Kawamura, thank you for your compliment. I was just chatting casually. Um... why are you here? Is there anything?" Kawamura Hideki didn't hide anything and walked into the house, laughing heartily: "I heard that Director Shan has started a TV series. Well, I don't have anything to do, so I came to take a look." After hearing this, Ping Qingshan immediately understood. Although in the future, my own studio may cooperate with other TV stations. But now, his relationship with Tokyo TV is actually tied together. He also knew that two TV series recently developed by Tokyo TV had failed. I guess he came here to ask for help this time. It’s essentially the same as Monkey King always going to Buddha for help whenever he can’t win. There is nothing strange about this, but it is still a bit surprising that Kawamura Hideki is so anxious. It seems that he is under a lot of pressure.
The reason why Hideki Kawamura was so anxious was not entirely because of the TV series. Instead, after realizing that Tokyo TV's current strength was not enough to support his ambitions, he suddenly realized that Hira Kiyoshige's role might be much more important than he thought. So I wanted to come here and build a relationship with Ping Qingshan. This is the working habit of people of his generation, who always hope to get things done through personal relationships. I always believe that as long as personal relationships are good enough, things can be accomplished. Habits are neither good nor bad. Sometimes it really works. "It's noon now. I know a good restaurant. Shall we go over there and eat while we talk?" "nature." Ping Qingshan knew the other party's purpose and did not refuse. He packed up and followed Kawamura Hideki out. The Chinese meal was a great success for both the host and the guests. Hideki Kawamura intended to win people's hearts, and both sides did not spend much time on the real business. We talked for probably about ten minutes. We confirmed the purchase and sale intention for the new TV series, and then we talked about relationships. The main thing is that Hideki Kawamura spoke ill of other TV stations. As a senior executive in the industry, he knew the dark history of other TV stations like the back of his hand. As for listening to gossip, Ping Qingshan really likes it. In his previous life, he liked to find out about the gossips in the entertainment industry. It would be nice to be able to listen to gossip on Japanese TV in this life, and listening to this information can also help him sort out many interpersonal relationships. Of course, there was another very important reason why Ping Qingshan was able to listen, and that was that Kawamura Hideki talked about the dark history of several other families, and his narration was so vivid. That sounds interesting. At the same time, he also told Ping Qingshan that by the end of this month at the latest, they would cooperate with a local terrestrial broadcasting company in Hokkaido. That is to say, in terms of playback coverage. They are already like several other major TV stations. It is possible to achieve nationwide coverage. Speaking of this matter, Ping Qingshan actually contributed to it. If it weren’t for the huge success of several variety shows after the beginning of the year, Tokyo TV would not have been able to convince the other party so quickly. It was precisely because of the increase in ratings that they successfully negotiated the broadcast in Hokkaido. Finally, Hideki Kawamura also described his grand vision for the future. It has great confidence in becoming the sixth largest TV station in the country, and even has the ambition to defeat the other five in the future and become the leader of Japan's television entertainment industry.
~~~ at the same time. Akihabara, Don Quijote Building, AKB48 Theater. Akimoto Yasushi was sitting in his seat, looking at the data sorted by the staff, with a very unhappy expression on his face. Just a few hours ago. The girl group [winks雅~~] led by Johnny's updated its members on its official website, including information on dozens of members. Very rare. This time, Johnny's did not form a small group like the boy band. Instead, they learned the AKB model, with a total of 28 students in the first period. But in the most crucial aspect, Johnny's did not learn from AKB. AKB's model is to develop, but the girls selected by Johnny's are already mature in terms of appearance and talent. If you do a little careful research, you can find out that most of these members are models or actors. They are all girls who have been in the entertainment industry for a while, but are relatively young and not yet famous. Although these girls have less growth potential and thus less joy in nurturing, it is undeniable that these girls are also very strong in combat. According to Johnny's information, the debut date of [winks雅~~] is scheduled for May this year. The venue for the debut concert was actually Tokyo Dome. Although many people had guessed it beforehand, it still caught people off guard when it really happened. Remember, it’s 2011 now. At this time, even AKB had not yet performed at the Tokyo Dome. AKB's first Tokyo Dome performance, if history goes by, will be next year. In August 2012, thanks to the sales of "No Million But Me", he got a ticket to the Tokyo Dome. For an idol group. The concert is roughly divided into three stages, various small venues, and the stadium is the first stage. For example, AKB’s first concert was held at the Japan Youth Hall, which represented the completion of the first stage. The second stage is various venues that can be used for formal concerts. Being able to perform in such places means that one is beginning to be recognized by the entertainment industry and has a certain status. If one can perform at the Budokan, it means that the second stage is completed. Whether or not one can hold a concert at the Budokan is a criterion for whether an artist has entered the first-line, and it is also the lifelong dream of many artists. Many very popular artists, even at their retirement concerts or disbanding concerts, are able to perform at the Budokan thanks to their many years of connections, fulfilling their long-cherished wish. The third stage is the stage of becoming a very popular pop artist, and the most obvious symbol is the Tokyo Dome. That means the pinnacle of idols.
But in Japan, Johnny's resources are enough to break all this. Chapter 141 Akimoto Yasushi's Dilemma In fact, before this, Johnny's male artists often debuted at the Tokyo Dome. Trampling on the dreams of artists. Now, the female idols under Johnny's are also continuing on this path. To be honest, it’s not something unimaginable. But emotionally speaking. Akimoto Yasushi still feels a little upset. It's like working in a company. You have worked diligently for several years, but you are still an ordinary employee. But suddenly a relative's child joined the company. He got the position in just one year. Although I know it clearly in my heart, I still feel uneasy. The reason is the same. Also. Judging from the official publicity, Johnny's girl group is different from all other AKB groups, and even the entire Japanese girl groups. Johnny's plans to borrow the model of Korean girl groups and integrate some elements of AKB to create a girl group. Let’s not talk about whether this model is good or not. Just to say, if Johnny's succeeds, from a business model perspective, the AKB system will naturally be the biggest hit. Be it Nogizaka or Sakura Girl Project. In essence, in Akimoto Yasushi's view, they are all just extensions of the AKB system. Although whether it is Sony, Ping Qingyin, or even the current Ping Qingshan, their strength has surpassed him. But he pioneered this path. Whether it's Sony or Ping Qingshan, they all recognize him. But now, Johnny's going to follow the path he has pioneered and squeeze him out. This makes it difficult for people to remain calm. more importantly. It's 11. Akimoto Yasushi has gradually felt that his control is declining.
As the saying goes, ducks know first when the river water becomes turbulent in spring. As the leader of the entire AKB group, while others believed that AKB was still in its heyday, Akimoto Yasushi himself had a strong sense of crisis. He already felt that he was losing control of the situation, and the AKB system had begun to show a clear downward trend. In Akimoto Yasushi's view, this trend can be divided into two parts: internal and external. I won’t talk about the inside part.
