Chapter 191 Director Donglian's Approval, Kaoru Kijima, who worked hard silently
"Master Jiguang, do you really have to spend so much money to invest in the second part of Tokyo Love Story?" the secretary asked Nagi Fujiwara cautiously.

"I don't want to say it a second time." Nagi Fujiwara's voice was low, and her tone was a bit cold.

Because the previous compensation of 50 million has seriously affected the development of the company she is now controlling. Originally, she still had a chance to earn 30 billion in two months, but now it is only about [-] billion.

Therefore, as long as Saizonoji Akino's movie is suppressed to the end by the second part of Tokyo Love Story, the lower the box office, the higher the probability of her winning.

Originally, she wanted to continue to play some dirty tricks and use her female identity to deceive him again, but recently the security at FJ Film and Television Club has been improved several levels, and if she repeats the old tricks, she will be easily exposed.

It will be a matter of future exposure, but you can't expose it now, otherwise you will lose the few advantages you have.

Nagi Fujiwara has completely regarded Akino Saigenji as a bully who can be deceived in any way and thrown away when he runs out, and he no longer has any emotion for him.

"Okay, okay." The secretary raised her glasses on the bridge of her nose, and silently hugged her file bag tightly. Recently, she can feel that Fujiwara Tsutsumitsu (Fujiwara Nagi) is getting more and more hostile. He will insult other people in meetings, and as long as his subordinates do something wrong, they will be infinitely magnified by him.

Due to the deformity of the Japanese social system, as well as the classic thinking in the workplace that "bosses blame subordinates, and subordinates are toys that the boss can manipulate at will", many people can only swallow their anger, not to mention that Nagi Fujiwara is still airborne, which has a lot of background people.

Therefore, everyone in the current company may become Nagi Fujiwara's punching bag.

The secretary was walking in the corridor, looking at the dark weather outside the window, he couldn't help sighing, "When will it be sunny today..."

-

The announcement of the second part of Tokyo Love Story has begun. In Shibuya, Setagaya, and even some shopping malls in Roppongi, the movie's promotional video began to be played on huge screens.In addition, there are tram station platforms, the proliferation of advertisements inside the tram, and the promotion of actors visiting programs on TV.

With the full support of star actors, capital operations, and the fans of the first part of Tokyo Love Story, the second part of Tokyo Love Story has been on the Twitter world many times before it is released 1 days ago. Trend No.[-].And it has become the most anticipated movie among national movie fans, not one of them.

Compared to before, your name doesn't even have a splash, and all the publicity has disappeared, and those publicity can only enter the field of vision of some second-handed apes.

Looking at the two financial statements in front of him and listening to Kyoko's report, Fujiwara Yoshiaki couldn't help sighing.

"Okay, don't read it."

"..." Kyoko closed her mouth, she looked at Fujiwara Yoshiaki's increasingly obvious aging recently, and her bloodshot eyes, her eyes were full of worry.

Originally, Fujiwara Yoshiaki didn't sleep very well when he was getting older, and he could only sleep for six hours at most, and he often woke up at night during the period.

If he did not rest well, his body would not be considered healthy. In addition, he was very concerned about the competition between Akino Saienji and Nagi Fujiwara recently, so he had less sleep time.

If this continues, Fujiwara Yoshiaki will definitely fall ill.

"Kyoko, tell me, did I do something wrong?" Fujiwara Yoshimori basically confirmed that the second test was the failure of Xiyuanji Akino.

In his opinion, Akino of Xiyuanji is like a blind and confident man with a particularly strong head. He knows that there are tigers in the mountains, but he prefers to go to the mountains.

It is true that your novel is well written and has become one of the few best-sellers today, but is the best-selling novel the same as film production and movie box office hits?
Leaving aside any changes in the operational thinking, it is obviously irrational and futile behavior in terms of the fact that Akino Xiyuanji draws and directs by himself, and does everything by himself.

Does he understand what is called a superior and what is called a leader?
If you need to check everything, then can you make key decisions well?

You have to do everything yourself, so why do you need these subordinates?
Moreover, Akino of Xiyuanji actually wanted to pay these people three times or four times their wages. Regarding this point, Fujiwara Yoshiaki couldn't agree with it the most.

But now, he finally understands that Xiyuanji Akino's art of controlling people is not what he thought at all. He has such abilities and talents, but he has never used them in the right way. The place.

In other words, he never really cared about controlling people.

Many clues can be seen from his current business performance.

If it was said that Fujiwara Yoshiaki was very satisfied when he first got to know him before, but now, he has completely reversed his thoughts.

only……

It's indeed a pity, if I don't forcefully declare him a failure in the first competition, he should be able to compete with Nagi Fujiwara in the third competition.

By the time……

Fujiwara Yoshiaki thought of this and shook his head.

Why bother to think about the latter?

Now there is no third competition!

……

There are also many people who are not optimistic about Akino Saienji, such as Nagi Fujiwara, or the sunsea band who had a grudge against Akino Saienji when they recommended themselves last time.

At first they didn't think there was anything wrong, but after they learned that Akino Saiyuanji's real age was only 16 years old, a feeling of being underestimated and reprimanded by the younger generation instantly made them feel very bad.

People who succeed too quickly will have a similar impetuous mentality, and they who have lost their humility are even more so in this respect.

Therefore, the sunsea band began to metaphorically insinuate your name on Twitter, ins, or their youtube video channel, and then went crazy about the second movie of Tokyo Love Story.

And, very coincidentally, not long after they posted these videos, the director of the second part of Tokyo Love Story also contacted them, saying that he wanted them to also play guest roles, and by the way help them write the second part of Tokyo Love Story A suitable song.

After going back and forth, recommending Tokyo Love Story, secretly stepping on your name has become more logical.

It's just that, with such a big production of Dong Lian, the theme song is not confirmed even when it's about to be released?

This is also quite strange.

However, they didn't care about this, and soon went to Dong Lian's studio to negotiate with the director, producer, and investors.

-

In an izakaya in Shibuya, Tokyo.

A group of big men sat together and began to raise their wine glasses and indulge in their sensuality.

"According to this trend, Dong Lian's pre-sale box office will surpass the previous one, which is safe." The producer couldn't help laughing triumphantly.

Sitting at the same wine table, Director Dong Lian didn't say a word, with a sullen expression on his face.

"I'm talking about Director Kitaoka, why can't you be a little bit happier when we have such a big momentum now? Sure enough, you art workers are rigid..."

"That's right, Director Kitaoka, it's a certainty that we will break the box office record, you should really be happy!"

After taking a sip of wine, Director Kitaoka said in a light tone: "Even if it breaks the record, it doesn't make any sense. The audience is not so easy to fool. The script of this second part itself is not sophisticated enough. The plot of the story There is also a tendency to be bloody."

"The word-of-mouth accumulated in the first film will probably be defeated by the second film."

"It's not as exaggerated as Director Kitaoka said. We are the original crew, and there is no personnel change at all!"

"And don't the current audience just like to watch some bloody plots?"

"So you let the protagonists in the first film who were already separated and lived their own lives forcibly come together, and then started a new love triangle and cheating scenes?" Director Kitaoka chose a tough producer, anyway, it's impossible to shoot now The filming is over, all the actors have been filmed, and even the editing work has been done.

As long as the review is passed, they will be able to arrange a screening in theaters. When it is a done deal, they can only spray a few words on the producer to relieve their anger.

To be honest, director Kitaoka didn't understand at all why Dongbao would give up the dominance and let such a completely amateur producer dictate the whole movie.

Normally, as a director, he should be the one with the most power.

Of course, Director Kitaoka didn't want to use this power to do anything, but just wanted to ensure the quality of the work was stable. Holding all the power in his hands was obviously the most sensible choice.

"This kind of filming will cause controversy, even a lot of abuse, but this is also normal, which is what I want to achieve, to arouse greater discussion through controversy, so that I will hire trolls to stir up the heat again and again, In the end, the box office will definitely not be low."

"As for itself, most of the sequels are suspected of being a sequel. Instead of completely following the tonality of the first step, it's better to let yourself go like this now, and then harvest a large number of fans' leeks along the way."

"Director Kitaoka, although you are better than me in terms of movies, but my business thinking is absolutely correct. Dongbao sent me to take control of the overall situation and let me try my best to make the previous special effects movies lose money. To make up for it, then doing it now is the best ending."

Director Kitaoka listened to the other party's narration, and the sigh in his heart became heavier.

Only a purely good story can move people. This is what Director Kitaoka has always pursued, but it seems that this time it will not work. It must serve the business and be corrupted by the money atmosphere of the business.

Hey……

What a pity.

If you give me another two or three years to think about it, this second film will definitely be able to be filmed, instead of being so busy with finalizing the project as it is now, with a messy process, stuffed with a lot of garbage plots, and ended up hastily.

"Don't worry, Director Kitaoka, this time we still have our exclusive back cannon fodder, FJ Film and Television, you know, although it is a film and television company under the Fujiwara Zaibatsu, but for so many years, there has been no success. Every time we collide with us must be hanged."

"And now they dare to confront us head-on on the same subject matter, and they still want to make an animated film. It's really ridiculous." After the producer revealed the topic just now, he began to laugh at his peers. The superiority of this comparison , has always been the best way for him to make the wine table lively.

Sure enough, several people agreed.

"So far, none of the animated films has been successful. I remember that the best one was made by He Jun ten years ago? It sold about [-] million yuan."

"That's already very strong. A low-cost animated film can achieve that result, tsk tsk, but I heard that FJ Film and Television seems to have invested 20 billion in it, saying that it wants to produce the most exquisite animated film. Now it is also riveting enough."

"20 billion?" The producer immediately put down his wine glass and laughed loudly: "Idiot, this is, invest 20 billion to make an animated film?"

"That's right, and the public will really buy it? I'm not optimistic, oh, speaking of this, there is another episode."

"What episode?"

The producer took a meaningful look at Director Kitaoka, and said with a smile: "Today we just went to meet the young people in the sunsea band, and learned that they came to us not long ago because they were rejected by FJ Film and Television. of."

"Originally they wanted to make the soundtrack for that animated film, but it seems that they were rejected by their president."

"No, when did that guy Takase become so stupid? Isn't the popularity of free door-to-door delivery low?"

"Who knows? Maybe you're just too old and confused?"

"No, it's just because they have a master airborne. It is said that this animated movie is made by this genius master."

"Pfft, that's no wonder. The young man is young and energetic, and he made such a bold attempt without knowing the market at all. Then we want him to pay the tuition this time?"

"That's right! Hahahaha!" Hearing the wild laughter of these people, Director Beigang felt that they were noisy and couldn't get into it at all.

However, in their ironic words, he still extracted some useful information.

For example, the animated film is called "Your Name", and for another example, the director of this work and the author of the original novel are the same person, that is, the airborne young master——Akino Xiyuanji.

After the drinking session was over, Director Kitaoka took a taxi to a nearby big bookstore, and found the book called Your Name in the light novel section.

To be honest, he has never read a single light novel, and he has read some literary classics in the past.

So I didn't really have any expectations for this work.

When he picked it up and was about to pay, a girl's voice sounded beside him.

"My guest, if you want to buy "Your Name", I suggest that it will be more affordable if you buy it together with the illustration book, and the illustration book plus the original text of the novel is definitely worth the money." Kijima Kaoru was wearing the clothes of a bookstore clerk, He looked at Director Kitaoka with a smile.

It is now 08:30 in the evening, and she is about to leave work soon, so she can sell a book before she leaves.

She is not short of money, but because she knows that Xiyuanji Akino is busy with the movie "Your Name" recently, she wants to work in a bookstore and take the opportunity to do some publicity work.

Of course, Xiyuanji Akino would not know what she did, but even so, as long as he could help him a little bit, Kaoru Kijima would be very satisfied.

After all, there is no chance to get close now, so I have to do this and watch him from a distance.

"Can you... tell me what kind of story this is? Is it really good?" Director Kitaoka said suddenly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Kaoru Kijima did not disappoint. She briefly described the opening content of the novel, and then left a few suspense very cleverly, which aroused Director Kitaoka's interest.

"This is a very good work, and I also like it very much. To put it to the extreme, it is my favorite work in my life. There is no one. Therefore, after buying the novel, the guest, about a month or so, There will be a movie released, and it has been doing promotion recently, if you are interested, please go and see it then!" Kaoru Kijima bowed slightly to him and said with a smile.

Director Kitaoka looked at the joy in the girl's eyes that seemed to be overflowing, and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

What kind of work can make her so obsessed?

Director Kitaoka was driven by multiple curiosity, and asked him to go straight to his home after purchasing the novel and illustration collection, ignoring his wife's greetings, and began to read while sitting on the sofa.

A few hours later, Director Kitaoka, who finished reading the whole novel wearing reading glasses, silently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Although Your Name is undoubtedly a commercial work, it also really tells a good story, a good story that can be moved and recognized by the public.

To be able to do this, to be honest, no matter how much money it can make, it should be.

After Director Kitaoka exhaled, he also made a decision in his heart.

On the day of the premiere, he decided to give a good publicity to this movie that was in the same period as them.
