Japanese Entertainment: From special effects actor to action superstar

Chapter 341 It’s Too Late to Apologize Now
The second episode of Armor Sentai aired on time on Saturday evening.

As predicted by TV Tokyo, the ratings for the second episode were not that high.

After all, many people come just to watch the fun, and the audience for children's plays is not large.

Even so, the ratings remained at 8%.

It may not look high, but for TV Tokyo, it is very high!

——For example, the famous drama of the Zhou Dynasty in later generations, "Detective Di Renjie", actually had a peak viewership rate of only 4%
Different times, different platforms, so of course the ratings will be different.

For Gu Ming, this is good enough.

It doesn’t matter if the ratings are not high, we don’t make money from ratings.

Selling toys, plus the dividends from the collaboration with Salia, etc., these are the things that Gu Ming cares about.

Tokyo, residence.

"Are you all ready?"

"Video collection, change of clothes, passport... everything is ready."

Shaqin stuffed these things into Gu Ming one by one and packed them all in a suitcase.

The box was heavy, but that was certainly not a problem for Gu Ming.

"I'm not sure how long this trip to the United States will take, but I'll just be doing some behind-the-scenes work, and most likely no one will know me." Gu Ming shrugged, "I'll be back as soon as possible."

There is nothing interesting about the United States. The United States of this era is similar to what is portrayed in Tom and Jerry.

very funny.

In the 20s, Americans lived like a cat and mouse game.

This was still the case in the 40s.

It was like this in the 60s and 80s.

Not in the 21st century.

——As American manufacturing moved abroad, many old cities like Detroit went into decline. As a result, Americans in the new millennium lived worse than they had in the previous century.

Until 2020, Americans are still living like in Tom and Jerry...

Fixed it.

If Gu Ming had experienced that kind of life in the 20s, he would definitely have been very envious.

But if he were to continue living like this in the 21st century, it would be meaningless.

"Anyway, I'll go early and come back early."

Gu Ming waved his hand and walked away gracefully.

Less than two hours after Gu Ming left, the phone at home rang.

It was TV Asahi who called with some hesitation.

Shaqin listened quietly, and then gave an answer that left the other party speechless.

"I'm sorry, I really wanted to convey this to Furuya-kun, but that's no longer possible."

"why?"

"It's like this, Furuya-kun is now on a ship bound for America."

There was a loud crash from the other end of the phone, as if something had fallen to the ground.

Then, there was a long busy tone.

……

……

"Asshole! Xiao Gu, you bastard! You're going to fight me all the way to the end. Get out and work as a field officer! It's because of you that we at TV Asahi have become a complete laughing stock! Pig! You pig!"

Section Chief Otani experienced the same feeling as forty years ago.

Mihama's to!

Generally speaking, things in the workplace wouldn't be that excessive, but this time it was different.

Xiao Gu himself didn't have the confidence to refute!
After a few slaps, the boss was panting, and Xiao Gu had to carefully ask his boss if his hand hurt.

Does it hurt?
It must hurt!

The boss was almost in tears.

The pain from the blow to you is in my hand!

Earlier, Asahi TV actually planned to show goodwill to Gu Ming.

One work is nothing, but the relationship cannot be broken!
However, Section Chief Kotani advised at the time that there was no need to be so humble for such a matter.

Moreover.

What if the work is terrible?
But it's different now.

Armor Sentai aired two episodes and performed very well.

Even those in the industry can see the quality is quite good. "Even a crappy place like TV Tokyo can get these ratings! What if it were TV Asahi? It wouldn't be a problem to double it!"

At least it’s more than 24%!

This can be called a hit series!
There are only a few works of this level that Asahi TV can broadcast!
But now, the work is gone, and the person is gone too.

After a few Pentaxes, the boss strongly reprimanded Xiao Gu.

"Throw away that face of yours! Call me as quickly as possible, apologize, and ask me out! If he likes money, give him money. If he likes women, give him women. Even if you have to fill in your wife, you have to ask him out!"

Xiao Gu nodded vigorously and used the phone in the office to call the channel that could contact Gu Ming.

It changed hands all the way and finally arrived at Gu Ming's house.

Under his boss's fierce gaze, Xiao Gu switched to hands-free mode.

Then, the sound spread throughout the office.

"It's like this, Furuya-kun is now on a ship bound for America."

Xiao Gu:?
Before he could speak, several Pentax phones called him. The scene was in chaos and only busy tones remained on the phones.

"Get out! Get out of here! You're bringing shame to TV Asahi! Get out of here and start your field work!"

Xiao Gu wanted to cry but had no tears: "Uncle..."

"Get out!"

After a round of beatings and kicks, Xiao Gu was driven out.

Standing outside the office door, Xiao Gu touched the few remaining hairs.

I can't live this day!

……

……

"So it's incredible that TV Asahi still hasn't contacted me."

Gu Ming sighed.

He still couldn't understand why TV Asahi could do such an irrational thing.

"Maybe it's because TV Asahi has its own pride."

Tatsumi Niemoto, who was lying on the bed opposite, also responded.

This time when he went to the Star Wars crew, Gu Ming only brought Tatsumi Niemoto, and the others stayed behind to cooperate with the armor shooting.

"But then again," Nikemoto Tatsumi said, "there's one thing I don't understand: 'Why don't we take a plane?'"

"Because the plane was flying too slowly."

Nikamoto Tatsumi:?

Do not understand!

Aren’t airplanes supposed to be faster than ships?

Gu Mingke was too embarrassed to say it.

Actually, he is a little afraid of airplanes.

Air crashes are scary!

Shipwrecks are rare, and he wasn't on the Titanic.

And even if there was a shipwreck, Gu Ming thought, maybe he could still swim across the entire Pacific Ocean.

"Okay, have a good rest. You'll have to deal with jet lag when you get to America. I'm going to go out for a walk."

Gu Ming was full of energy and couldn't sit still, so he got up and prepared to go for a walk outside.

The ship goes directly from Yokohama to Los Angeles and takes about twenty days.

Although the round trip was a bit slow, Gu Ming really didn't dare to take a plane.

What's more.

Traveling on a cruise is also quite fun. I heard that you can even listen to concerts in the evening.

Leaving Niemoto Tatsumi in the cabin, Gu Ming went up to the deck alone.

At this moment, we are still near the sea. At a glance, we can vaguely see the edge of the city. Looking into the distance, the view is quite vast.

"call……"

Gu Ming had just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard an extremely excited voice.

"Gugu Ming! You are Gugu Ming!"

Gu Ming:?
What the hell.

You met fans right after leaving Japan?
