Chereads / Rebirth Of A Korean Director / Chapter 20 - Chapter 20

Chapter 20 - Chapter 20

On the night of program broadcast, Jung Hyuk-jae gave the members of Production crew a vacation in advance. At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, everyone stopped one by one. You're working, or squatting or standing in front of the TV, waiting for the start of "Reverse Theatre" that he participated in the filming.

Although he has experience in previous lives, the ratings of "Reverse Theatre" will certainly not be low, but as a'new director', he is inevitably somewhat unsure in his heart. Far away from the TV, only the gaze looking towards the TV from time to time accidentally exposed his thoughts.

"Jung PD, why don't you go over and sit?"

Chae-rim didn't know when he came to him, the corner of his mouth looked at Jung Hyuk-jae with a slight smile, like water His eyes seemed to be talking.

"Chae-rim -ssi? I thought you were going back?" Jung Hyuk-jae returned to his senses, a little surprised when he saw the people around him.

"Today is the first episode of "Reverse Theatre". How can I go back in advance?"

"If I want to think, busy people like you don't usually sit Does the plane fly around all day? Even if I want to take a rest, the company will definitely not be allowed!"

hearing this, Chae-rim's eyes couldn't help but fade away, Jung Hyuk-jae was unintentional But one sentence of which expresses the embarrassment of many popular artists.

Almost every announcement of this group of popular stars in South Korea is full. From early morning to one or two in the morning on the 2nd day, wait until the artist finally returns When I was stunned for a while, I would get up again within three hours and start 2nd day work.

I rushed to the beauty salon at five o'clock in the morning and hurried to the set for a perfect appearance. This is Chae-rim's hurry all day.

"In fact, I sometimes envy those ordinary persons, without too much pressure, growing up Dae-sung ~ people, getting married and having children, supporting each other, and living my life in an ordinary way!" Chae -rim gently stretched out his hand and stroked the long hair blown away from his eyes behind his ears, then glanced at the darkening sky in the evening, and said slowly.

The voice is very small, it seems to be just telling myself.

Jung Hyuk-jae glanced at her beside her, even the best makeup artist could not hide the tiredness on her face, "You are wrong, in fact, ordinary persons also have their troubles, such as Talking about money and so on…The reason why they envy their lives is just because they don't understand that "people in the city want to go out, people outside the city want to come in", only this!"

Chae -rim looked at Jung Hyuk-jae with some surprise, chewing repeatedly in his heart the phrase "people in the city want to go out, people outside the city want to come in".

"Let's go, let's go, the program is about to start!" Reassuringly patted her arm, Jung Hyuk-jae took the lead and walked out, mixing with a group of young staff, and it took a while. You said I laughed.

Chae-rim stood there blankly, staring at the figure with a dazed gaze, a person who had never noticed before seemed to reappear in front of him.

"Jung PD, before it is broadcast, don't you take the lead in guessing the ratings of our drama?" a young man from the film crew shouted.

Jung Hyuk-jae nodded, "Guess the ratings is a must. Since I'm the first, then don't guess at a high place, how about 20%?"

"Eh..."

"Isn't this called a higher guess?"

"You said that, what else do we guess next?"

"Yes, yes!"

Everyone ridicule one by one. In front of the young director, you can't hush him while you are working. I always take advantage of this good opportunity to vent. a bit.

When talking about TV series or variety show ratings and audience share, these are actually two concepts.

The audience rating refers to the proportion of the target audience who watched a certain TV program in a certain period of time in the total target population, expressed as a percentage. The audience share is the ratio of the number of viewers watching a program in a certain area to the total number of people watching TV, usually expressed as a percentage.

For example, the total number of viewers is 100, but only 20 people turn on the TV to watch TV, and 1 of them is watching your program, then your audience rating is 1%, and your audience share It is one twentieth.

Jung Hyuk-jae did not answer, he smiled and stared at the TV, waiting for the Reverse Theatre after the end of "X-man".

The fragrant wind blew, Jung Hyuk-jae suddenly noticed that there was another person beside him, turned his head and glanced, Chae-rim ran over at some point, leaning on the railing of the set, his eyes tight Staring closely at the TV .

"The next thing you will be watching is "Weekend Reverse Theatre"!" With the introduction voice of Yoo Jae-seok, the first episode of Reverse Theatre finally appeared in front of everyone.

.......................... ..

SBSTV Station, near ten o'clock in the evening, if nothing happens, then the ratings of "Weekend Reverse Theatre" should be counted now.

The light in the office of the director of SSB Bureau of Comprehensive Arts and Entertainment is still on, and an anxious figure can be seen faintly walking around the office through the frosted glass surface.

"Bureau Chief Choi!"

The young receptionist knocked on the door here, holding a folder in her arms, and walked in hastily.

"Has it come out?" Choi Ji-hye's heart couldn't help but relax, and then he became nervous again, and the hand that took the folder was shaking slightly involuntarily.

"Okay, you go out first!" Choi Ji-hye slowly opened the folder in front of him with a wave of his hand to tell the girl at the front desk to go out, carefully looking at the viewership statistics of the time period line by line..

"Successful?" Choi Ji-hye looked at the black and white letters on the document with excitement, and he didn't read him wrong as expected.

At the same time, the signal transmitted by a phone passed through the night sky of Seoul and came to a high-end residence in Jung-nang District.

SBS TV Drama Production Department~Chairman Kim Woo-ji is standing in the study room with a large pear wood desk on which is covered with a piece of white rice paper. After thinking for a long time, he held a pen in his hand. , Stained with full black ink, thinking about what word to inscribe.

"dīng líng líng …dīng líng líng…", the sudden ringing of the telephone made his hand tremble, and a drop of thick ink was stained on the original snow-like rice paper.

"damn!"

The pen in his hand was thrown aside, Kim Woo-ji gritted his teeth, and answered the call in a deep voice, "I didn't say that I don't want this to be fine at night Time to call?"

The cold tone made the young man on the other end of the phone feel a little at a loss, so he heard him explain incoherently on the phone, "Jin…uh…Jin Department~sir, didn't you say last time…well , I'm still at TV Station…"

Kim Woo-ji's complexion is even more gloomy, and his hand holding the phone tightly It's tight, obviously there's anger in my heart, "Yeah! If you have something to say quickly, don't hesitate, does your leader teach you to speak like this?"

Tell the young man. I was shocked. I was still slurred and incoherent just now. This time I was completely frightened by him, "Kimbu ~ Long, I am now at TV Station. Last time you told me that only "Reverse Theatre" has a rating of one Let me report to you when you come out!"

After hearing this, Kim Woo-ji's complexion finally returned to normal, and he seemed to have said this sentence in the impression, "Well, you say it!"

Although he once said this sentence, he didn't take seriously the "Weekend Reverse Theatre" produced by the Bureau of Comprehensive Arts and Entertainment. How can a group of variety shows know TV dramas? What kind of fame is a Caotai team still thinking about?

Joke!

"The real-time ratings of "X-man" continued from 14.7% before the broadcast to 17.9% at the end of the program. The highest ratings were 19.3% and the average ratings were 16.8%!" young man Follow the ratings chart to BOSS introduced.

Although Kim Woo-ji doesn't have an appetite for the "Reverse Theatre" created by the Bureau of Comprehensive Arts and Entertainment, in fact, I still admire the ratings of "X-man" from the bottom of my heart, just like this The ratings of a normal one period, although the highest ratings did not exceed 20%, but it is already very good!

Looking at the ratings of TV series broadcasted from this year to the present, there is only one TV series that can break 20%, and you can see the potential of "X-man". As long as it continues to break 20%, that is as It should be by rights, you can even consider the 25% record.

"What about the reverse…Reverse Theatre?" At this moment, Kim Woo-ji still failed to remember the name of the short drama produced by Bureau of Comprehensive Arts and Entertainment. Just by listening to the name, you can predict that the ratings will definitely not break 10%.

This is still his overestimation. If it is not that this short drama is broadcast immediately after the end of "X-man", it is very likely that even the 5% ratings cannot be broken.

"Uh…The real-time ratings of "Weekend Reverse Theatre" have gone from the initial 19.4%, uh…" For some reason, the young man on the other end of the phone became hesitant again.

Kim Woo-ji was upset to hear. Although he was a little surprised at the initial 19.7% ratings, he was not too surprised. After all, this is just the beginning of the broadcast, and the audience will definitely be lost in the future . The ratings will also drop from 19%.

"Go on!"

"The real-time ratings of "Weekend Reverse Theatre" went from 19.7% at the beginning to 23.5% at the end of the program. The highest ratings were 24.1%, average The ratings are 22.6%!"

"Are you sure you read it right?"

It broke 20%? And the highest ratings have reached 24%, is this still an ordinary self-made skit?

Kim Woo-ji couldn't believe it. He asked him to take a closer look if he had printed the wrong ratings form. How could a short drama reach 20% of the ratings? Has deeply subverted his previous concept of TV dramas.

It takes about 20 minutes to play a full episode after one episode, even if you add advertisements, it takes only 50 minutes for two episodes to add advertisements, which is not even comparable to the weight of ordinary TV dramas, and the ratings are actually high, moved towards The 25% goal is moving forward steadily!

"Ministry ~ Chief, this form is not printed wrong, I have already asked where the statistics are!"

"Ministry ~ Chief? Department ~ Chief?"

Ignoring the subordinate's inquiry in the microphone, Kim Woo-ji came to his desk with a gloomy expression, staring straight at the rice paper dyed with a drop of thick ink.

"Hey!"

The Xuancheng rice paper specially bought from China was torn to pieces and thrown into the trash can. There was no inkstone on the table. The demon zhua who can escape the angry Kim Woo-ji.

The soft and comfortable carpet is sprinkled with traces of ink, which seems to have several points of freehand style. "Damn!"
