Chapter 231 This Boat Is Going to Capsize, I’d Better Stay Away

Kazuma thought, yes, that's what I meant.

So he didn't explain, and continued to ask these people why they were here - they talked a lot, but still didn't say what they wanted Kiryu and Ma for.

"So, you two came here because you want me to be the martial arts director of this film?"

Kazuma did not forget to go in the direction of "come and ask me to star", because actors in Japan also need qualifications, and it is rare to be discovered by a talent scout on the way and go directly to star in a movie.

An actor has to go a long way from his debut to becoming a starring role.

Moreover, Japan's entertainment industry also has a "birth advantage" similar to that of civil servants. In the civil service circle, people who come from good universities will be promoted quickly, while in the entertainment industry, people who come from theater companies and stage plays will have a natural advantage.

Therefore, Japanese actors either have a background in stage plays, or they first go to stage plays to be gilded before taking on important responsibilities.

People who don’t understand this can easily get confused when looking at the Japanese entertainment industry. For example, someone from the AKB department turned to movies. The drama was well received, so she turned around and acted in stage plays. As a result, many Chinese fans were furious and felt that she was being ignored.

All in all, it is basically impossible for a stranger like Kazuma who has no relevant experience to star in a movie, so Kazuma directly thinks about martial arts instruction.

However, Producer Nagata shook his head: "No, although it would be great if you could serve as a martial arts instructor by the way, but this is not our main intention. We hope that you can play the leading role in this movie."

Kazuma once again looked puzzled. There were a lot of things that puzzled him today.

"Isn't this appropriate?" Kazuma asked bluntly, "I don't have any acting experience, I haven't acted in a stage play, and I haven't even participated in high school drama club activities."

——No, wait, it seems that I am reciting lines for the kendo performance at the cultural festival?

But this news should not reach the ears of a serious film studio like Taiying.

Producer Nagata laughed: "Indeed, this may seem a bit deviant to others, but the information we have obtained shows that Kawakaku Films is filming a Yakuza action movie that boldly uses a new female lead and is aimed at the younger generation."

When Kazuma heard it, he understood, "Kawakaku", etc., the two words were obviously swapped, and then there was a new female lead, and it was a Yakuza action movie aimed at the younger generation...

This is a sailor uniform and a machine gun.

So the situation is that the established film studios are facing strong challenges from newcomers and plan to attack them with their corresponding products.

However, Kawakaku's side has done a good job in keeping secrets, and the information obtained here is obviously biased.

Sailor Suit and Machine Gun is not an action movie. Although it has the label "action", it mainly relies on the plot to impress people.

Kazuma was surprised because he remembered that there was an original novel about Sailor Suit and Machine Gun, and he could know what the movie would be like just by buying a copy of the novel.

Could it be that... there are no novels in this time and space, so movies can be produced directly?

Here, Producer Nagata interpreted Kazuma's pensive expression as he recalled the information from his previous life to mean something else, and hurriedly continued to explain:

"The reliable information we have received is that the female lead cast by Kawakaku this time is a young idol who was still in development not long ago after being signed by their idol agency. She has no acting experience at all before."

Kazuma recalled that in his previous life, Hiroko Yakushimaru seemed to have experience in acting. Before playing Sailor Suit and Machine Gun, he played a child in a Kadokawa Pictures movie, cooperating with Takakura Ken.

She should be considered a child star?

Why did he become a girl idol who is still dating?

Japanese idol is a proper noun, it does not mean the broad coverage of idols in China.

Therefore, Kazuma has always felt that it is not appropriate to translate the Japanese word "Ai Doulu" into an idol, as it will cause a cognitive misalignment.

A common misunderstanding is that Chinese people think that idols have a high status in Japan. However, in fact, "loving to show off" is at the bottom of the contempt chain in the Japanese entertainment industry.

Cultivated idols refer to idols who are still practicing idol cultivation and have not yet debuted.

He Ma was speechless.

This change is so big, no wonder Kazuma can't see any news about Yakushimaru Hiroko.

He originally thought that she would appear in his sight like Matsuda Seiko, with a slightly changed name, such as Hiroko Yakushiji or something.

Kazuma looked at Producer Nagata and mentally summarized the current situation before speaking: the production of sailor suits and machine guns has undergone major changes, there may be no original novels, and the female lead has become a true newcomer.

Then he said: "This doesn't sound too threatening. At least I won't spend money to go to the cinema to watch a movie starring an idol I have never heard of."

Nagata nodded: "Yes, but we got this."

He turned to look at the one of the three who had been silent. The latter immediately took out something like a poster and handed it to Nagata.

Kazuma understands, of these three people, the person standing in the C position is the producer, and the one on the more distinguished right hand side is probably the screenwriter, who is also called "teacher" in the production team.

And the third should be the producer's assistant.

"Look at this poster."

Nagata handed the poster to Kazuma.

Kazuma took it over and took a look, okay, it turned out to be the "Xingquan" in his impression. On the poster, she was wearing a sailor suit and holding an American M3 grease gun - what the Japanese refer to as a machine gun.

The poster has a unique temperament, full of youthful atmosphere, and extremely sassy. In short, it is shot very well.

Kazuma doesn't know how many people can be brought into the cinema with this poster alone, but he will go and see what happens.

"It's indeed very charming, one can't help but..." Kazuma suddenly turned around mid-sentence and glanced at his beloved sword placed in front of the poster of Matsu Seiko on the wall.

——Damn it, you got tired of Song Shengzi so quickly?

Kazuma turned his head back, rolled up the poster and continued: "It makes you want to collect it."

"We still have a lot of them." Producer Nagata smiled, "They were defective products stolen by bribery of workers in the printing factory. You can take them if you like. Now coming back to this film, we think it is a three-way film. , movies like the American Charlie's Angels..."

Kazuma sneered, thinking that you deserved to be caught off guard and annihilated.

Wait, there’s Charlie’s Angels now?

I have been with Ma all my life. When I was a child, I was deeply impressed by three American TV series: "Garrison Suicide Squad", "Knight Rider" and "Charlie's Angels".

Kazuma's childhood fantasy was to be as handsome as the Chief from Garrison's Suicide Squad, have a talking car from Knight Rider, and have three Charlie's Angels as a harem.

Now I suddenly heard a producer from a major studio talking about Charlie's Angels, and he was filled with emotion.

Producer Nagata finally saw something was wrong with Kazuma's expression, so he asked: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

"Look at this poster," Kazuma re-opened the folded poster, "Can't you feel it? This temperament, no, this will not be a three-way movie like Charlie's Angels."

Talking nonsense to Ma Xinguo, it is actually impossible to draw such a conclusion from this poster.

He is so sure because he has seen the finished film.

Producer Nagata is obviously a veteran, and he is not fooled so easily. He glanced at the poster in confusion: "No, I can't see it, sorry. Our intelligence shows..."

"I tell you with the intuition of a martial artist that this is not a movie like Charlie's Angels. If you follow this judgment and make a sniper movie, you will definitely encounter Waterloo."

"That's it. I understand. I will keep your teachings in mind."

When Kazuma saw what Nagata said, he knew that it would be useless to talk about it. This is how Japan is, saying one thing on the surface and doing another behind the scenes. He took this teaching to heart, and it was probably just rhetoric.

"I've told you my opinion. Thanks to the poster, my knife likes it very much."

After talking to Hema, he rolled up the poster again.

Producer Nagata looked confused: "Knife?"

"Don't worry, let's continue talking about business."

"Okay," Producer Nagata immediately switched to business mode, "We plan to shoot a sniper action film and also use a complete newcomer. You are the most suitable candidate for the starring role.

"As soon as I saw you, I knew that you were very suitable. Although you are not as handsome as those newbies, you have a tough guy temperament."

Nonsense, Kazuma thought, I'm a real tough guy, that's not a temperamental thing, I just am.

Even in the fictional world of the movie, my results are very impressive.

Producer Nagata continued: "So I think it is the best choice to ask you to star. Even if there are flaws in your acting skills, it doesn't matter. After all, the opposite person is just an idol."

Kazuma shook his head, he had already foreseen Taiying's tragic defeat in this "battle". If the different time and space peers in this time and space have the same strength as in the immediate life, the actor of Xingquan will perform at a super level, and the song he sings will become a national hit in Japan.

There is no hope. Even if Kiryu and Ma want to enter the entertainment industry, they will not start with this project that is destined to sink.

"Sorry, I still have to take the exam for Tokyo University. It's not easy to get into Tokyo University. I don't have time to film."

"But, aren't you practicing your lines for the school's cultural festival?" Producer Nagata said.

It seems that the producer has a very dedicated intelligence team, and this kind of thing has been investigated in advance.

"Those are just a few lines." He Ma spread his hands and said, "It doesn't take much. Our martial arts activities are mainly about the sparring between me and my apprentice. There is no need to spend time preparing for this aspect. Overall, The cultural festival doesn’t really affect my preparation for the exam.”

Because everything was handled by Egg, she kept a very tight schedule and no time was wasted.

Producer Nagata didn't give up: "Filming won't take up a lot of time. We have a very efficient organization team and can arrange all your scenes to be filmed during the winter vacation."

"You...did you know that the exams at Dongda are during the winter vacation?" Kazuma asked.

"Uh... spring break is okay too!" Producer Nagata said.

It seems that the Japanese in this era can give up their spring break.

Unlike later, when the spring break came, all the dramas were stopped, and the Japanese all went on vacation to be happy.

Sure enough, the Showa era was different from the waste era that followed.

Kazuma wanted to sing a XX Restoration song to the Heisei waste...

Kazuma: "No, spring break is also the most stressful time to prepare for exams. I'm sorry, I really can't do it. Besides, I have no intention of pursuing a career in the entertainment industry."

In fact, I still have some thoughts. After all, I can be a copywriter, right? I have traveled through time and space, so I have to have a good time no matter what, right?

However, it would be wrong to interrupt serious business to do this.

After all, in this world, you may really be able to use sword energy after practicing to 90. How can you be as attractive as an actor by using sword energy?

No matter which boy you choose, he will choose to send sword energy.

Of course, in the future, between practicing martial arts, you can make a guest appearance as an artist to get some BUFF.

Producer Nagata saw that this trick was not working, and finally threw out his trump card: "There are many cute girls in the entertainment industry. In order to fight against Kawakaku this time, we will select a group of girls with excellent figures from the relationship club to act opposite. .”

Just as Kazuma was about to answer, he heard someone shouting from the entrance: "Brother, let's come back and pull him!"

Then there was the sound of girls chatting.

The four of them looked at the door of the dojo together. Soon Chiyoko opened the door of the dojo and reported to Kazuma: "Brother, I bought crucian carp on sale today... Hey, there are guests. Hello, sorry to disturb you."

Then Nanjo appeared: "What's wrong? Are there guests? Hello."

Mikako held the back of her head with both hands and appeared in Nobi Nobita's favorite pose: "Are there guests? Who is it? Wow, so formal. Hello."

Chiyoko: "I'm going to prepare tea right now."

"Let me help too." Nanjo said, pulling Mikako away who was still looking at Nagata and the others curiously.

The chairman who finally appeared did not say any nonsense, he just bowed to Producer Nagata and the others, and then silently closed the sliding door of the dojo to the corridor.

Kazuma scratched his head: "Well, you saw it too. These are my apprentices... No, they are my apprentice and sister. The youngest one is the sister."

Nagata seemed to be still in a state of shock, but the salesman on his left reacted first: "Do your apprentices have any plans to get involved in the entertainment industry?"

"Ah, well, all three of them are eldest ladies."

Actually, one of them wasn't, but it didn't matter, Kazuma just said that.

"Young ladies can also get involved in the entertainment industry. For example, we are affiliated with the club..."

Producer Nagata coughed, and his men shut up obediently.

"Sorry, it seems we've disturbed you. Then... can you be the martial arts instructor? This really doesn't require much energy. You just need to be there on the day when the specific scene is shot. We will also provide all the instructions that need to be directed. Lens compression was shot together over several days…”

Kazuma still planned to refuse, because this would definitely be beaten by sailor suits and machine guns. In the Japanese entertainment industry, if a bad movie is made with poor results, the creative team will take the blame, and the stain may not be washed away for a lifetime.

At this time, Dandanzi came in with tea.

Kazuma didn't know that it was Nanjo and Chiyoko who went to prepare the tea first, but she was the one who brought it in last.

The palace fighting drama in the middle is probably worth one episode.

Danzi put the tea in front of everyone, then smiled at Kazuma and said: "If it takes three to four days, there should be no problem. Proper rest will improve the efficiency of study."

"But..." Kazuma thought to himself that this is not just a matter of study, and I don't want to take the blame.

But a brilliant idea popped into his head.

"Ah, how about this, can I remain anonymous?" he asked.
