Reborn Tokyo Golden Age

Chapter 81 Preparation
Takeshi Kitano's self-deprecating question left Yuko Tanaka at a loss as to how to answer.

"Senior Brother Kitano, you don't need to say it..." Bai Chuanfeng tried to persuade him in a pretentious way.

"Haha" the other people in the room couldn't help laughing as soon as the voice fell, even Yuko Tanaka, who met for the first time, frowned.

"Boy Bai Chuan, why didn't I realize that you still have the talent to be a comedian?"

Although Takeshi Kitano was teased by Bai Chuanfeng, a smile appeared on his face instead.

Bai Chuanfeng, who was caught by the cue, looked at Takeshi Kitano with a look of admiration, "Of course it was taught by my brother."

"Haha" Takeshi Kitano couldn't help laughing this time, "I just said that boy Bai Chuan is suitable to be a comic talent, and he will definitely be popular."

After the pleasant jokes were finished, everyone raised their glasses to celebrate today's meeting.

After a glass of wine, Bai Chuanfeng regained his serious face. He waved his hand, "It's not suitable for me to be an entertainer. I still like to watch other people's performances."

Hearing what Bai Chuanfeng said, Takeshi Kitano smiled triumphantly.Boy, if you say what you want, you still have to obediently stand in front of my camera in the end.

"Then the two leading actors of the movie will be decided, boy Bai Chuan will play the male role, and Tanaka-san will play the female role."

When the main actors and actresses of the film were settled, Takeshi Kitano also breathed a sigh of relief.At least the work of the crew has taken another step forward.

"Hey..." Yuko Tanaka, who had just put down her wine glass, looked at him in surprise when she heard that Bai Chuanfeng was the leading actor.

Seeing this scene, Takeshi Kitano wondered, "Why, didn't Kid Bai Chuan tell you that the male hero is him?"

"Uh... I forgot." Bai Chuanfeng smiled awkwardly, then looked at Yuko Tanaka and then turned to Takeshi Kitano, with an expression on his face that he was forcing me.

"What an accident?" Tanaka Yuko looked across Bai Chuanfeng's face seemingly unintentionally, and murmured.

Bai Chuanfeng didn't know if it was his own illusion, but he always felt that there was a smile in Yuko Tanaka's eyes just now.

Takeshi Kitano and Mikiko Matsuda looked at each other, and then they all smiled tacitly.

These things about young people are most interesting when they are hazy.

"Cough" Takeshi Kitano coughed lightly, awakening the inadvertent eyes of the young men and women, and at the same time attracting the attention of others.

"Then the production team will be formally established. I will be the supervisor, with Shirakawa Tanaka as the lead actor and Mori Masa Yuki-san as the producer."

This is the main creative team of "The Sea of ​​Tranquility That Summer". There is no doubt that this is a young team.

A cross-border team composed of comers from all walks of life who have never had film experience.

Mancai, a TV program planner, a TV drama actor who just debuted, and the young president of a small company, Sang.

After careful calculation, this is a proper and unreliable alliance.

And this unreliable franchise also encountered the first problem since its establishment.

"Boy Bai Chuan, there is one more question that needs to be notified to you in advance." Takeshi Kitano suddenly became twitchy.

"Brother Kitano, please tell me." Bai Chuanfeng was curious about what question stumped him.

Takeshi Kitano filled a glass for himself first, and then said awkwardly, "There is nothing wrong with the crew, but they haven't found enough investors."

In fact, it's not that we haven't found enough investors, it's that there are none at all.

People with a little bit of industry experience can see how unreliable a movie directed by Mancai is.

Who wants to be the one who is taken advantage of in a business that loses money nine out of ten.

Although Takeshi Kitano has made up his mind to make a movie, Masayuki Mori also uses his contacts to actively seek investment everywhere.

But the result is, so far nothing.

"How far is it?" Bai Chuanfeng asked calmly.

Takeshi Kitano moved his lips, and just about to speak, Masayuki Mori reported the answer for him. "It's about 300 million yen short."

Although the cost of this movie is not high, it still requires an investment of 800 million yen.

The most expensive is not labor, but film.Now is not the era of digital cameras in the later generations, and all movies are made on film.

And the cost of film is quite expensive. For example, the filmmakers in their hometown across the sea at this time are careful and budget-conscious when making movies, and they dare not waste a single bit.

Now because no investor can be found, in the end, Takeshi Kitano can only pay for it himself.

However, although he has frequently appeared on the small screen in the past two years, in fact, Takeshi Kitano has not saved much money.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t be living near Asakusa now. Asakusa is not a tourist destination for tourists from all over the world in future generations.

Asakusa in the 70s was a Shitamachi in Tokyo, where civilians lived.

Geisha, taverns, and gangsters are all over here. Most Tokyoites don't want to go to Asakusa because they think it is too vulgar and indecent.

If the money is not enough, the film cannot be made. There is no way, Masayuki Mori also began to pay for it out of his own pocket.

But patchwork, still can not make up the 300 million shortfall.

Seeing that Bai Chuanfeng was silent, Kitano felt that he had lost face in front of everyone.

"Crack" Takeshi Kitano put the wine glass on the table, "Don't worry, boy Bai Chuan, within two months I will definitely gather the funds, and "The Sea of ​​Tranquility That Summer" will definitely be filmed."

"I'll pay 300 million."

"Ah?" Everyone thought they heard it wrong, and they all looked at Bai Chuanfeng in astonishment.

"I will pay 300 million, but there are conditions." Bai Chuanfeng emphasized again.

"Boy Shirakawa, where did you get so much money as a student, you can't talk big at this time." Takeshi Kitano expressed what Masayuki Mori and the others thought.

Well, 300 million is not a small amount, let alone for students.

Hearing these words, Bai Chuanfeng straightened his body and reached into his pocket skillfully.

But he stopped halfway through stretching, and then he remembered that he was wearing a kimono today, and he didn't bring a business card at all.

Ma Dan, not installed.Bai Chuanfeng withdrew his hand regretfully.

"Cough" Bai Chuanfeng cleared his throat, "Brother Kitano, I am not only a student, but also the president Sang."

"Huh?" Takeshi Kitano and the others blinked to confirm that he was not talking nonsense.

Seeing everyone's suspicious gazes, Bai Chuanfeng spread his hands together, "If you don't believe me, ask Tanaka-san, she can testify for me."

Seeing everyone's eyes gathered, Tanaka Yu blushed, but still nodded seriously.

"Boy, tell me in detail." Takeshi Kitano felt that his junior seemed to be able to do something unexpected, writing songs and scripts, whichever was not the case.

Bai Chuanfeng waved his hand, "It's a long story at this time, let's take Brother Kitano to have a look at it another day.

On the other hand, if Brother Kitano has the funds in place, when does he plan to start filming? "

"Of course, the sooner the better," Takeshi Kitano blurted out, and then he added.

"The weather is just right now. After September, the temperature at the seaside will drop a lot. By then, it will be you, Bai Chuan, who will be soaking in the water."

"Then when will it be released?" Bai Chuanfeng touched his chin and continued to ask.

"April and May next year are the most suitable months." Takeshi Kitano and Masayuki Mori looked at each other and gave unanimous answers.

Bai Chuanfeng thought about it, "Then let's follow this time, but I also have conditions."

"What conditions?" Everyone looked at him curiously.
