Chapter 536 534, Shuyou Films Will Win All the Film Awards!

While the rumors outside were getting more and more outrageous, Naoki Nagayama and the others were enjoying themselves in the editing room.

The editing work of "Love Letter" went very smoothly. The main part has been edited. All that is left is some subtle adjustments and selections.

The closer to the end, the more surprised several people were at the plot and presentation of "Love Letter", especially the complex emotional lines, the parallel and slightly intertwined lives of the heroine Hiroko and the heroine Fujii.

"So in the end, it turned out that there was no meeting between Hiroko and the female Fujii tree?"

Itou Shuichi sighed, the script was originally different from the final result. The stories edited by different directors have completely different results!

Komori Masataka also sighed: "So these are two love stories!"

"Actually, there are four love lines in the whole movie, Hiroko and the male Fujii tree, Hiroko and Akiba, the male Fujii tree and the female Fujii tree." Naoki Nagayama laughed, "There is another one, did you notice it?"

"Huh? There's another section?" Several people looked over.

"Yes, it's between the courier guy at the beginning and the female version of Fujii Shu!" Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "There is a secret love everywhere."

"It's true!" Itou Shuichi said with a smile, "With so many emotional lines and so many montage techniques, the whole movie actually doesn't make people feel confused. Naoki-san, it's really Si Guoyi!"

"Haha, Akina's performance is also good. When she plays Hiroko and Fujii, they don't look like the same person at all." Naoki Nagayama said.

Masataka Komori said with a smile: "There is a big difference between Akiha played by Naoki-san and the male version of Fujii! His acting skills are also very good!"

"Hahaha~ Are we playing a game of complimenting each other?"

At this time, Kijima Kyon, who usually works silently, interjected:

"So, because Oju had a crush on Oju when he was in school, he found Hiroko, who was very similar to Oju, as his girlfriend when he grew up. After Hiroko died unexpectedly, he found Aki, who was very similar to Oju. Ye becomes a boyfriend.

In these relationships, who is whose replacement? Do they really love each other? Or is it just a shadow? "

"." The small editing room was silent for a while, and Shuichi Itou exclaimed, "Kishima-kun, I didn't expect that you, who are usually dull, speak so philosophically!"

Nagayama Naoki gave a brief answer: "Actually, I couldn't tell the difference when I was editing, but things like feelings are inherently unclear. Maybe I fell in love the first time I saw it. You don’t need a reason to love someone~”

Kijima Xu was confused: "Don't you need it?"

Nagayama Naoki asked again: "Do you need it?"

Kijima Kyor rebounded: "Don't you need it?"

"Akido sack!" Naoki Nagayama felt that he was trapped in some kind of cycle and quickly interrupted, "In short, you may feel similar at the beginning, but as you get along, you will always find that they are not the same person!

In the end, I decided to keep going, it can only be love~"

Kijima Xu thought for a while, then nodded to express his understanding: "I see, I understand~"

Just when several people in the editing room were still thinking about continuing to study the emotional line, Yoshimura Otomo opened the door and walked in:

"Naoki-san, Shuichi-san, how's the editing going?"

"Ah, it's almost completed, it's the first draft~" Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "Otomo-san, is Chikoko-chan's album production going well?"

"Hi, we have finished shooting the cover. We will choose it after the photos are developed. The recording of the song is also completed." Otomo Yoshimura took out a record from his bag, "Naoki-san, I will take this demo tape with you by the way." coming!"

"Nani?" Nagayama Naoki took it and took a look. It turned out to be the audition tape of Nakamori Akina's "Snow Flower", "Ha, it's already mixed!"

Previously, I had to mix the sounds of other instruments together, but this has only been delayed until now.

"Hey, Naoki-san, you can listen to it first. If there are no problems, then the production factory can start production~" Otomo Fangmura continued, "In addition, we have communicated with major record stores that this record must be It will be put on the shelves after it is broadcast on the TV station.”

"Oh? Have you made an agreement with the record store?" Naoki Nagayama looked for the player in the room, "What about the cinema?"

"The cinema still needs to continue to communicate. After all, temporarily inserting a movie is something that has never been done before~" Although Otomo Yoshimura said it was a little difficult, his expression was not helpless. After all, it can be exchanged with another movie of his own. .

"That's good, everyone is here, let's just listen to it. This song will also be used as the soundtrack of "Love Letter"." Naoki Nagayama motioned to Yoshimura Otomo to close the door, and then pressed the play button.

The gentle melody of "Snow Flower" is like the slowly falling snowflakes in winter. It comes from the speakers. First, there is a soft female version, like a beautiful girl expressing her longing for love. After singing the song, the next It has been replaced by a gentle adult version, and it has become an adult girl describing to you the love she has experienced.

After listening to it twice, everyone in the editing room seemed to be immersed in the beauty of the music, unwilling to open their eyes for a long time.

"Okay, it sounds perfect~" Nagayama Naoki broke the silence, "Otomo-san, let the manufacturer start production~ The cover is the material we were given before!"

Nagayama Naoki directly gave the opening image of "Love Letter" to the past.

Itou Shuichi asked: "Naoki-san, if it's in the movie, is the soundtrack used for the girl version or the adult version?"

"In this regard, I prefer the adult version~" Nagayama Naoki said, "The music with a touch of sadness is in line with Japan's mourning culture~"

"Hmm~" Yi Tangxiu nodded, and then seemed to think of something,

"Naoki-san, if it snows in Tokyo before the end of December, this "Love Letter" might still have a chance to participate in the Blue Ribbon and Film Academy Awards selections!"

"Really?" Nagayama Naoki smiled, "But this year, we already have two movies. If we have one more, maybe the entire film selection award will be won by our Shuyou Pictures!"

"Hahaha~"

Happy laughter came from everyone in the editing room.

Laughter also came from the box where Yoji Yamada was huddled. Today he invited Tomoyuki Tanaka, the vice president of the Japan Film Academy Awards Association, and Fumio Ishikawa, a member of the association, to have dinner together.

Tanaka Yuyuki is already in his 70s. He is a famous film producer and the executive director of Toho. He can be said to be one of the top bosses in the Japanese film industry.

"Yoji-san, why did you invite us here this time? Do you have that movie to compete for the Academy Award?" Tanaka Yuyuki chuckled, "But I haven't heard of it?"

"Director Yamada indeed has no films in the selection this year." Fumio Ishikawa said next to him.

"Oh? What on earth is that? Just tell me~"

As I get older, I can't eat anything, and I can't drink alcohol. Even the young lady can only look at it. After listening to the compliments for a long time, Tanaka Yuyuki is already a little tired of it.

"This...is actually related to director Fukasaku Kinji." Yamada Yoji said.

"Oh?" Tanaka Yuyuki couldn't help laughing, "The guy who was so scared that he peed. Hahaha~"

Ishikawa Fumio was also holding back his laughter. Tanaka Yuyuki could say it without any scruples because he was senior and had a high status. But he, Fumio Ishikawa, couldn't laugh at Fukasaku Kinji in public.

"What's up with him?"

Yamada Yoji could only apologize: "Director Fukasaku, I hope to know about this year's selection and see if "The Ring" will have a chance to win the award."

"Ah, this." Tanaka Yuyuki looked to the side.

Ishikawa Fumio also immediately returned: "At present, the information of "The Ring" has not been sent, and the selection committee has not started to review the film. But generally speaking, they will not use horror films to participate in the awards. After all, "High School" is more famous, has better box office, and has a greater chance of winning awards."

"That's good." Yamada Yoji recalled Fukasaku Kinji's promise to introduce the sponsor to him, and further said,

"Director Fukasaku Tanaka-san is also a veteran director of Shochiku, and he is so old. He has already been admitted to the hospital because of the scandal. If "Midnight Ring" attracts attention again, interested people will bring up the old matter again, which may have a negative impact on his physical and mental health. It will cause secondary damage."

Tanaka Yuyuki smiled: "Director Fukasaku hopes to suppress "The Ring"? This is not a big problem. The chance of a horror film is not great. But, why should I do this?"

Yamada Yoji quickly said: "Fukasaku-san knows that in this year's film award selection, "Antarctic Story" has a great advantage. However, Tanaka-san's "Snow" is also a very outstanding movie."

This is an exchange. At Tanaka Yuyuki's age, he might go to another world at any time, so the most important thing is his posthumous name.

As the producer of "Snow", he naturally hopes that "Snow" will receive more honors, and this movie, if not looking at the box office, does have the ability to compete for the best picture.

"So, Director Fukasaku is willing to support "Snow"?"

"Hey, Director Fukasaku is very optimistic about "Fair Snow". He wants to contact his friends and talk to them about the excellence of "Fair Snow""

Even with such a naked exchange of interests, Yamada Yoji said it like an upright movie discussion.

Kinji Fukasaku has been in the industry for more than 20 years. Although he has not won many awards, he has a huge influence on gangster films and period films, and is nicknamed the master of violent films.

The movies he directed sold very well, so he was highly appreciated by the top management of the film studio, and he also had many connections at the top.

Tanaka Yuyuki thought for a while:

"Haha, if that's the case, then Director Fukasaku needs to discuss it carefully. "Snow" is much more profound than a shallow movie like "The Ring"!"

This is just a promise, and it also reduces "The Ring" to a shallow movie!

"By the way, how is Director Fukasaku doing now?"

"Director Fukasaku has been diagnosed with prostate lesions and is currently on bed rest after treatment!" Yoji Yamada said with a sense of relief in his tone. This time the matter is done, he will have many more financial backers for his movies in the future!

"That's it." Tanaka Yuyuki smiled, "Then... ah, Ishikawa-san, you can go visit Director Fukasaku on my behalf!"

Ishikawa Fumio nodded: "Hi, I will remember it!"

In the evening, Naoki Nagayama drove to Shinjuku's commercial district. He had decided before that he wanted to buy New Year's gifts for his sister and family, Christmas gifts for friends, and some decorations for his home.

Thinking of buying simple decorations first and then browsing the shops, Naoki Nagayama first came to a department store.

"I have to buy a sock by the Christmas tree bed, and there are also candies and stickers." He was walking around in the huge mall while muttering.

The place was too big, and he accidentally ran to the home appliance department store area. Naoki Nagayama was about to turn back, but he found something strange.

All the TV screens on sale have a sign prohibiting entry. It looks absurd and wonderful!

For some reason, Naoki Nagayama subconsciously felt that this was related to him

"Private Marseille, why is this sign posted on the TV?" Naoki Nagayama asked a salesperson.

"Ah, customer, it's like this!" Isao Uemura has answered this question many times, and said familiarly, "After the no-passing sign is posted, it means that the screen of this TV cannot be used as a passage!"

".So?"

"So, Sadako Yamamura can't crawl out from inside!" Isao Uemura said with a smile, "This is the evil ghost in the recently popular "Midnight Ring"! Customer, you probably haven't seen the movie yet~ It's very, very, very scary!"

"." Nagayama Naoki was silent for a moment. Sure enough, when I wear a hat, others can't recognize me as the director of the movie. "Ah, I really don't have time to watch it!"

"Then I suggest that you go and see it~" Isao Yamamura said, "Although it's scary, it's very exciting! ”

“Hi”

“Customer, do you want me to introduce the functions of the TV to you?” Isao Uemura said attentively, “Our TV is of excellent quality!”

“Ha, sorry, I don’t need to buy a TV for the time being.”

Naoki Nagayama shook his head and was about to leave, but somehow he said, “Excuse me, after putting up this sign, did many people come to buy it?”

“Hi! There are indeed more people asking! It attracted people~” Isao Uemura smiled, “And many customers who have watched “Midnight Ring” have actually placed orders!”

“.”

Naoki Nagayama really didn’t expect that Sadako could have such an effect

After buying all the decorations needed for Christmas in the department store, the next step was to go shopping in the commercial streets of Shinjuku.

For Tsuruko, just give her a women’s watch, the kind with diamonds, a little prettier, as an apology.

For the mother, give her a whitening and repairing set for the New Year this year, and for the father, just buy some tea leaves, and then for the eldest brother, it seems that the three-piece set of fishing is already ready, or give her a more delicate fishing rod?

Oh, yes, and my little nephew, Nagayama Yakusa. At this age, would it be a bit too much to give him elementary school test papers?

After going around in circles, I bought all the gifts for my family and friends in the shopping streets of Shinjuku, and finally returned home with a full bag.
