Chapter 335 Autumn Moon Nine
"You mean to say that the invitation from Fuji TV was not to invite me to be the lead actor in the Yuejiu drama, but to invite me to be a guest star in the Yuejiu drama? Not even a supporting role?"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who heard the news, once thought that his ears had misheard, and asked in disbelief in his tone.

"Hmm." Uncle Ishida also understood Sakamoto Kiyoshi's thoughts at this time, and just replied softly.

"Fuji TV is looking down on me now?!"

Sure enough, Kiyoshi Sakamoto changed from the excitement when he heard the Yuejiu drama from the beginning, to a expressionless expression, and the words he said made Ogawa Masaki and Chiba Masaki sitting in the back seats all It is easy to feel the chill.

Ogawa Masaki and Chiba Masaki both sat in the back seat, shrinking their necks.

They knew that Kiyoshi Sakamoto must be angry at this time.

That's right, the moment Kiyoshi Sakamoto heard that Fuji TV invited him to be a guest star in Yuejiu instead of starring in Yuejiu, he suddenly felt very angry, even angry.

Because, given his current status in the music scene and social status, even though he is only 17 years old, it is not impossible to star in Yue Jiu.

Although he is an actor, he has only appeared in three works. . .No, it can barely be said to be four.

The front and back chapters of "Death Note", the third male lead of "Dragon Cherry", and a friendly cameo in "Sparkling Tears".

Strictly speaking, in fact, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who debuted for three years and only has three works, is just a rookie in the acting world, and he cannot be a newcomer.

However, Kiyoshi Sakamoto is no ordinary rookie actor.

As I said before, Kiyoshi Sakamoto is the first actor in the Heisei era with a box office of more than [-] billion. Coupled with the sweep of the newcomer awards in major film awards, Kiyoshi Sakamoto has become the most popular box office in Japan today. There is no such thing as Wakashou comedian.

In order not to lower their own value, both Sony and Sakamoto Kiyoshi believed that when accepting a film, it is not the leading role that would not accept it, whether it is a movie or a TV series.

However, at this time, Fuji TV actually proposed to let him play a guest role on Yuejiu? !

This is clearly looking down on him, the best newcomer in the history of the film industry, a rising star in the film industry.

This is why Kiyoshi Sakamoto was so angry when he heard that it was a "guest appearance".

Moreover, today's Yuejiu is no longer the previous Yuejiu. . .

The so-called Yuejiu, as the name suggests, is a TV series broadcast on Fuji TV every Sunday (Monday) at 9:[-] p.m.

"Yuejiu Drama" has always been the weather vane of Fuji TV's current season Japanese drama ratings.

This time slot has been broadcasting TV dramas since September 1962. Although there have been classic films such as "New Zatoichi" and "Grand Airport", they have not yet formed a scale. In addition, it was revised into a variety show in 9 and other factors. , There has been no fire, and it has been intermittent for many years, until "Tokyo Love Story" in 1980 made the ninth file a real golden file.

"Tokyo Love Story" is not only a classic masterpiece in the history of "Yuejiu", but also a classic work in the history of Japanese dramas. The ratings of the finale of "Tokyo Love" reached 32.2%, and it was this drama that opened the high ratings of Yuejiu the gate.

Subsequent "101 Marriage Proposals", "Under the Same Roof", "White Paper on Love", "Long Vacation", "A Century of Love" and "HERO" all received high ratings, which created the golden age of Yuejiu.

And in the golden age of Yuejiu, there was a person who took advantage of this wave and achieved his title of "King of Japanese Drama".

That person is Takuya Kimura.

It can be said that Kimura Takuya and Yuejiuju have made each other a success.

The period from the 1990s to the first half of the 2000s is known as the golden period of Yuejiu dramas.The top ten ratings in the history of Yuejiu all came from this period.

However, starting from 2005, there were four monthly episodes a year until August 2007, plus the ongoing summer episode "First Kiss", there were 8 episodes.

However, during the two and a half years, only "Engine" starring Kimura Daishen in 2005, and "Journey to the West" starring Katori Shingo in 2006, there is no other month-nine drama with an average rating of more than 20.00%. Yes, they are basically hovering around more than ten percent.

Even Kiyoshi Sakamoto's favorite two Yuejiu, "Symphony Dreams" and "The Proposal" had an average rating of only about 17% to 18%, and did not break through the 20.00% mark.

Once upon a time, the average ratings of Yuejiu easily exceeded 20.00%. . .

In recent years, Fuji TV's Yuejiu, whether it is ratings or influence, is really a bit weak.

Moreover, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who knows the future, knows that this is not Fujidai's Yuejiu drama, falling into the deepest part of the altar.

Now, on the ninth day of each season, it can still barely maintain an average ratings of more than ten percent. In 2011, "What You Taught Me The Most Important", the average ratings were 11.44, the lowest ratings of 10.5. The historically low ratings of below [-]% also took away the last fig leaf of Yuejiu's famous brand.

Not to mention the average ratings of several monthly dramas in 2016, all in single digits.

"Reminiscence", "LoveSong", "Someone I Like", "Cain and Abel", among which there is also an acquaintance of Kiyoshi Sakamoto, his teacher, Masaharu Fukuyama.

"Love Song" starring Masaharu Fukuyama set the lowest ratings in the history of Yuejiu, 6.8%! ! !

Moreover, this shameful record, "Maybe Suddenly, I'm Getting Married Tomorrow" on Winter September 2017 in [-], broke it directly.

The ratings of 5.0% are like a slap in the face of Fuji TV.

In 2017, Fuji TV's monthly nine dramas are no longer the monthly nine dramas of the 90s and early 20th century. Even the monthly nine dramas in 2007 are not the same as before. The ratings champion of the big TV series.

However, Sakamoto Kiyoshi would not care about such a long-term matter.

The main thing is, the immediate.

Moreover, he has long set the goal of moving forward, which is to give up TV dramas and make movies and music go hand in hand.

Therefore, he didn't care about the decline in the ratings of Fujitai Yuejiu.

All he cared about was that Fuji TV actually invited him to be a guest star.

In his heart at this moment, he could only use the word "anger" to describe his current mood.

However, he still suppressed the anger in his heart, but continued to ask with a cold tone.

"When is the ninth of the month? Autumn? Winter?"

"Well, it's in autumn." Just at a traffic light, Uncle Ishida also stopped the car, turned his head, and said to Kiyoshi Sakamoto, "You know the lead actor very well."

"Uh...who?" Sakamoto Kiyoshi asked suspiciously.

"Fukuyama-san."

After Sakamoto Kiyoshi heard the name, he was stunned for a moment, and then his brain started to work quickly.

Ten seconds later, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who had figured it out, touched his high nose bridge with his hand, and muttered softly.

"So that's the case..."

"In that case, I can't refuse..."

From the name, he probably thought of the reason why Fuji TV sent out this invitation.

Fukuyama Masaharu, as we all know, he is the teacher of Sakamoto Kiyoshi, and Sakamoto Kiyoshi is his student.

It is more appropriate to say that it is a student, but to use another noun to express it.

"apprentice"

Fukuyama Masaharu, who passed on all the knowledge he knew to Sakamoto Kiyoshi, undoubtedly regarded Sakamoto Kiyoshi as his "legacy successor".

Therefore, the relationship between the two is not so much a "teacher-student", but a "teacher-student" is more suitable.

It is precisely because of this relationship that Fuji TV thought of his "apprentice", Kiyoshi Sakamoto, after confirming that Fukuyama Masaharu would star in the autumn moon nine. . .

As mentioned earlier, the decline of Yuejiu in recent years is very obvious.

It is precisely because of this that Fuji TV will think that besides Takuya Kimura, another Japanese drama king, Masaharu Fukuyama, will star in the new season of Yuejiu.

They hope that with Fukuyama Masaharu's high popularity among Mesozoic women, "Yuejiu", the golden signboard of Fujidai, can be given a new second spring.

Moreover, Fujidai is also planning to kill two birds with one stone by inviting Kiyoshi Sakamoto this time.

One is to make use of the gimmick of "Sakamoto Kiyoshi and Fukuyama Masaharu co-acting with master and apprentice" to make a big publicity.

The second is to expand the audience.

Sakamoto Kiyoshi's huge influence among young people will also make the audience expand from the Mesozoic age group to the new generation.

When the two national male gods, Masaharu Fukuyama and Kiyoshi Sakamoto, are the most popular male artists of all ages, they can appear in the same TV series at the same time, and the two handsome guys can be in the same frame. That feeling, It will definitely make young female fans, as well as housewives who are the main viewers, screaming and excited, and they must be waiting in front of the TV all the time.

In this way, the ratings will definitely remain high.

This is the idea of ​​Fujidai.

Sakamoto Kiyoshi also thought of these ways after thinking about it.

Therefore, he knew that he had to accept the invitation from Fuji TV even if he didn't accept it.

After all, this is a TV series starring my teacher, even if it is not the starring role, it is acceptable.

Just think of it as a place for your teacher, and increase the ratings by the way.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was thinking like this, felt the depression in his heart somewhat dissipate. . .

"Is the leading role a teacher... Who is the heroine?"

Sakamoto Kiyoshi had already determined in his heart that he would guest star in this autumn moon nine, so he began to inquire about the drama's information.

"Oh, the heroine is also someone you know..." Seeing Kiyoshi Sakamoto's expression, which was much better than before, Uncle Ishida also said with a smile.

"Uh?"

"The heroine is... Chai Qi Xingsang."

"Huh?!" Kiyoshi Sakamoto exclaimed in surprise when he heard the name.

"..." After hearing the names "Fukuyama Masaharu" and "Shii Qiyuki", although he had already made up his mind, Kiyoshi Sakamoto asked.

"The title of the show is..."

""Detective Galileo"!"
