Chapter 243 Four Major Japanese Drama Awards
After the planning meeting, everyone left the planning room one after another.
The moment they left the planning room, everyone subconsciously let out a long breath. Hearing the sound of heavy breathing one after another, everyone subconsciously looked at the people beside them.
An executive director whispered to the people around him: "Let's not hold the men's party tonight..."
"But the nightclub has reserved a private room, and Remi-chan has been waiting for many days..."
"Forget it, anyway, you can only look at that kind of beauty, but you can't eat it. The deposit is unnecessary, and you can play it another day. If you make that person angry, I'm afraid you won't even be able to see it in the future."
The two of them muttered quietly and gradually walked away.
After just one conversation, the atmosphere of the crew instantly improved a lot, changing from the free and casual atmosphere before. The main reason is that no one can part with their current job. Although the workload is much greater than that of employees in other departments of the company, the income is also several times higher.
And for the members of the creative team, there is a popular work under their name, but it can add a lot to their resumes. Many of them have participated in the September 9th War with Kei Fujiwara several times. A column of historical works can instantly double your salary.
Even if they knew that Kei Fujiwara's contract was less than a year away, no one dared to despise him. They all hoped to stay under his command for a longer time, and maybe his qualifications could be improved a lot.
With the Yuejiu team working for one year, it is better than five years at other places. This is the consensus of Shuibo Production and even the entire Fukuyama Station.
Soon, the Japanese Drama Academy Award was also held, which was aimed at judging the TV dramas of the previous season. "Homeless Child" and "Housekeeper Mita" happened to be included in the selection of this award because of the coincidence of the broadcast time. Scope, and both shows were nominated.
Although the Japanese Drama Academy Award is known as the Oscar for Japanese TV dramas, it was not established for a long time. In the early 1990s, it was co-organized by several TV publications. Because of the endorsement by many prestigious organizations and figures in the broadcasting industry, it was only a few years ago. It has become one of the most important TV drama awards in Japan. The only ones that are as famous as it are the Japanese Drama Life Award, the Star Award and the Private Broadcasting Joint Judges Award.
These four are considered to be the four most important awards in the field of TV dramas in the Japanese broadcasting industry. Excluding the uncrowned king of historical rankings in ratings, these four awards are the most authoritative and credible.
Therefore, the creators of a drama hope to win as many "Best Work Awards" among these four awards for the same drama as possible.
With each additional award, the show is like adding a crown to its head. Ambitious drama producers all aim to obtain four crowns as a prize-winning goal.
However, a work that has won all four awards at the same time has yet to appear. Of course, this is also because the Academy Awards were not founded until nine years ago. Therefore, there has never been a "Four Crowns" in the history of Japanese dramas.
But before the establishment of the Academy Award, the "Triple Crown" was the highest honor, but there were very few works that won the "Japanese Drama Life Award", "Interstellar Award" and "National Broadcasting Joint Judge Award" in one drama at the same time. There are only two.
One is NHK's classic Taiga drama "Tanzakura", and the other is the world's most-watched TV series in history "The Robbery".
Both dramas were produced around the 1980s and were a sensation when they were first broadcast. After watching these two works, Kei Fujiwara couldn't help feeling that there are many talented people in this world.
He even thought that if he traveled back in time one day, he could copy the information from this world back and probably make a lot of money...
For most works, it would be extraordinary to win one or two of these four awards. If you can get three or four, it will be a sensational masterpiece.
Since the four awards are held at different times, a tacit agreement has even been reached between the different organizers. If a work has already won one or two of these four awards, then the judging criteria for the play will become strict. We even intentionally don’t give it the best work award unless the work is so strong that it’s impeccable.
It is precisely because of this that it is extremely difficult for [Triple Crown Drama] and [Four Crown Drama] to appear.
In fact, one of the reasons why the Japanese Drama Life Award was not awarded to "Homeless Child" was that this drama just won the "Best Work Award" from the Joint Judges Award a week ago.
Before the Broadcasting Awards, "Homeless Children" also missed out on the Best Work Award at the Star Awards, so whether this film can win the Best Work at the Broadcasting Awards is really exciting.
Almost all of Kei Fujiwara's works since his debut have won four major awards. Except for "The Lonely Gourmet", this drama was not very popular with the award organizers due to genre restrictions. Some judges even thought that it was not a drama at all. TV series.
But Kei Fujiwara doesn't care too much. For him, any award is the icing on the cake. What he cares about most is only the uncrowned king of ratings.
Ratings are sales, and sales are economic benefits! He is not a producer at NHK. He works at a commercial station. What does he value if he does not value commercial results?
But there is one thing to say, whether it is the main creator or the actor, the more awards they receive, the income of future works will be increased to a certain extent.
At least on the poster of the new work, the publicity department can add a line of words - the new masterpiece of a certain award winner. It can also have the effect of attracting the audience's attention to a certain extent.
The day for the new academy awards is coming soon, and Kei Fujiwara once again brought Inoue Mori to the awards ceremony as if he was carrying his daughter to get married.
This time Yoko Matsuo also followed, and the two dramas "Homeless Child" and "Housewife Sanda" were nominated for Academy Awards at the same time.
Yoko Matsuo did not wear a sexy dress like other actresses, but dressed dignifiedly and elegantly, and did not dress herself up very deliberately. This was also decided after she listened to Kei Fujiwara's opinions and discussed with her agent.
It must be a bit difficult to compete with young actors in their early twenties at this age... It is better to act more serious and generous, using black and white as the main color, only wearing a string of pearl necklaces around the neck for decoration, showing a showbiz look The appearance of the senior is more dignified.
Sure enough, although Yoko Matsuo was not as glamorous as other young actresses, she was still focused on by the flashbulbs of the media present at the award ceremony.
The popular drama "Housekeeper Mita" has just concluded. This drama has received extremely high ratings. If NBC hadn't ambushed it in the final episode, it might have been in the top ten in history.
After the completion of "Housekeeper Mita", she played the role of the male protagonist's wife in the new super hit "Hansawa Naoki" (it seems inappropriate to say that she is the female lead, as this drama has no standard meaning) heroine).
Because of her near-perfect wife character in the drama, she is also loved by many male viewers. She also won the first place in the semi-annual ranking of "The Actress You Most Want to Take Home as Your Wife" in a national entertainment variety show. The number of votes for the name.
This ranking is actually quite famous among the people. It is a bit like the Japanese version of the Hupu Goddess Selection, and this is also the first time that an actress over thirty years old has won the top spot.
