   Chapter 267 266, The island is so small, why don't the movie shoot the sea?

   Entering the end of October, the cherry blossoms in Yamazakurain are blooming again~

A young man in autumn clothes stood in the courtyard, squinting at this out-of-season cherry tree. The pink cherry buds on the trunk opened slightly, revealing the shy stamens, while the better-positioned branches in the sun, pink. The white petals are opening their arms towards the dawn.

  The cherry blossoms clustered together, covered the original taupe cherry tree with a pink coat, as if spring had come to this courtyard again.

Under the warm sunshine in the morning, the autumn frost on the stamens has turned into dewdrops, scattered like small diamonds with crystal clear light, dyed with the pink of cherry blossoms, like a dream in the morning light magical.

   "I always think your cherry blossom is a bit weird" Naoki Naoyama stood under the tree and patted the trunk, "If this is an extraordinary world, you will definitely become a monster~"

   After muttering to himself like a middle-aged boy for a while, Naoki Naoki took a deep breath of the aroma of cherry blossoms, and then walked into the house.

   "Now that the flowers have bloomed, it's time to hold a banquet~"

   He solved the simple breakfast neatly. Naoki Naoki left Taro at home to watch the house, and then went out alone with the open hood,

  The place to go today is Jimbocho, where the Iwanami Cinema is located.

Toydo Shuichi's blessing, under the recommendation of his mentor, the film "That Summer, The Sea of ​​Tranquility" has been accepted by Iwanami Cinema. Since it was a preview, there was no much publicity, and it was only an invitation Well-known people in the film industry and some media personnel,

   Of course, the public signs in the hall were also made, and viewers on the day of the preview can also buy tickets to watch it.

   In fact, this test screening can also be regarded as an interview. If the person in charge of Iwanami Cinema thinks it is possible, then the movie "That Summer, The Sea of ​​Tranquility" can be screened in Iwanami for up to 3 months.

  Jimbocho is a place filled with the scent of books and coffee.

  The streets are full of bookstores and coffee shops. From time to time, you can see people enjoying a cup of coffee in the coffee shop and reading quietly with books in their hands. Walking along the streets here, it seems that even the time is a little slower.

   Yanbo Cinema is located on the tenth floor of a building on the corner of the street. Downstairs is the subway station. It is covered with small advertisements of various restaurants and bars. It is also the entrance of the building.

   You have to walk through a narrow walkway to the ticket gate of the Iwanami Cinema, as if everything was designed to keep moviegoers out of the cinema.

  Yongshan Naoki is also here for the first time. Under the guidance of the street corner signboard, he finally found the ticket booth. He also got a sorting ticket and walked to the elevator next to him. The theater is on the tenth floor~

   When I got out of the elevator, I saw that there were already many people waiting in the lobby. The familiar ones were Yuki Saito and Hirojiro Shimizu, the leading actors of the movie, and Masataka Komori was there.

Not far ahead, Yitang Xiuyi was respectfully chatting with two gray-haired people. Seeing this situation, Naoki Naoki instinctively wanted to avoid him, but Yitangxiu saw his figure sharply, and he was very surprised. Happily waved:

   "Naoshu-san, you are here! Come here!"

  Nagayama Naoki reluctantly walked between the few people, and heard Yitang Shuichi excitedly introduce the old man with glasses next to him:

   "Naoki-san, this is my mentor, Professor Machida Yasushi, a professor of directing at Tokyo University of the Arts. Mr. Machida, this is Naoki Naoki, the screenwriter, director and producer of today's film."

  Nagayama Naoki saw the old man who helped Shuyou many times to paint, and bowed and said hello: "Machida-sensei, I've heard the name for a long time, but this is the first time we meet, please give me more advice in the future!"

   "Yongshan-kun, I have heard the name for a long time here."

Then Ido Shuichi introduced to the old man wearing a suit on the other side: "Naoki-san, this is Mr. Yujiro Iwanami, the president of Iwanami Bookstore and this Iwanami Cinema. President Iwanami, this is our tree friend. Naoki Naoki, the film's president."

  Nagayama Naoki had to bow again: "President Iwanami, it's the first time we meet, please advise!"

   "President Yongshan, please give me more advice in the future!"

   After the tedious meeting ceremony was completed, I was finally able to speak more easily,

Machida Yasushi and Iwaba Yujiro are obviously good friends, and at this time, he said to Iwaba Yujiro: "Yujiro, this young man is the writer and producer of the recently super popular "Hachiko Story" of "Convenience Store Robbery Incident". The film, according to my students, was also a big part of directing and editing."

   "Oh? I thought Yitang-kun was the leader."

At this time, Shuichi Yitang did not take the credit, but said with a smile: "Machida-sensei is complimenting me, in fact, Naoki-san played a major role in both films. It can be said that without him, there would be no two The birth of the movie."

  Nagayama Naoki quickly waved his hand: "Xu Yi-sang is too modest. Without Xiu Yi-sang's superb directing skills, the film could not have been made. I just provided some ideas."

   "Hahaha, you two don't push each other, the birth of a movie requires the joint efforts of the crew~" Machida Yasushi laughed,

   At this time, several people heard the command of the theater staff: "The top ten guests who have sorted out the tickets, please go first."

  Iwaha Yujiro then looked at his pocket watch, "It's almost time, let's go in and sit down."

   After saying that, he led Machida Yasushi in, and looked at the numbers they showed when checking tickets, No. 1 and No. 2. Sure enough, the boss had privileges, and the first two were reserved for himself.

  Nagayama Naoki was the last to come, and of course he was the last batch, but he saw that some people he knew in front of him also came, such as the director Kobayashi Masaki who is always gay

  Why do you see him every time you preview?

  There are only about 200 seats in the small venue, but there are less than 100 people sitting, so every moviegoer can choose their favorite seats.

  As the lights dimmed, a gray-blue color appeared on the screen, accompanied by undulating waves and gray-white waves, a surfboard floated on the sea water.

  The male and female protagonists who can't speak, the love that accompanies quietly, the few lines, and the ethereal soundtrack. The movie tells the love story between the deaf and mute Mao and Takako that summer, on the quiet seaside,

   In the melody of "SilentLove", the movie is over, and the venue seems to be infected with the atmosphere of the movie, and there is a touch of sadness in the calm.

   For a long time, as an audience applauded, the entire venue burst into applause, which is the appreciation of the film by the movie lovers present.

From the audience's reaction, it can be seen that "That Summer, Tranquil Sea" is very good. Except for the people who were invited, most of the audience did not leave after the movie, and wanted to know what happened next. interview session.

  As the theater staff quickly arranged the posters and banners, the routine interviews began after the preview.

   This time Naoki Naoyama came to the stage for an interview as a director. Masataka Komori and other leading actors stood on both sides,

  Although it is not the first time, but seeing more than ten microphones, I am still a little nervous.

  Fortunately, the host that Masataka Komori was looking for was a familiar one, who was familiar with joking with the reporters under the stage, and then smoothly guided the interaction,

   "Okay, journalists, if you have any questions, you can ask Director Yongshan directly!"

The host pointed to a reporter among the many raised hands: "Director Yongshan, the movie "That Summer, Tranquil Sea" is really good, you are the screenwriter and director of this movie, it can be said that it is the film's creator Lead creator, how did you come up with the idea to make such a film?"

   "Er" Naoki Naoyama recalled his motives, and took a picture when he thought of it? Surely you can't say, "Do you know when diving?"

   The reporter was stunned, how could he ask questions during the interview? "know a little."

"At that time, I had just returned from a trip to Hawaii, surfing and snorkeling every day. When I dived to the bottom of the sea, I found the tranquility and turbulent current beneath the blue surface of the sea, so I wanted to make a quiet but intense movie. "

   "What kind of emotion is the most intense? Of course it's love."

  Nagayama Naoki seems to want to tell his thinking process of making a movie from a purely objective point of view, but this is not the answer the reporter wants!

   Even if you meet a real deaf-mute couple, you will be moved! This way we also have a story to write!

  The reporter couldn't help but interrupted the answer: "Thank you Director Yongshan for your answer, I have another question!"

   "Hi, please speak."

   "As far as I know, Director Yongshan was born in a city by the sea, and there are a lot of seascape scenes in the movie. Does such a seaside movie have anything to do with childhood experiences?"

  Nagayama Naoki shook his head: "It doesn't matter."

   "Then why shoot the sea?"

   "Uh, the island of Japan is so small and surrounded by the sea, why don't you take pictures of the sea?"

   The reporter was choked, "Ah, so it is."

   signaled the host to ask the next person to ask questions, and then other reporters saw the essence of Naoshu Yongshan's topic terminator, and they all threw the question to other creators,

  For example, Masataka Komori, is this the first time editing?

   Saito Yuki, is it the first time to star?

   Shimizu Hirojiro, how did it feel to work with Director Nagayama for the first time?

   After several questions, the interviews of the preview meeting were restored to the atmosphere they should have. When the fans interacted, many reporters actually turned the microphones to the auditorium.

  Because the people who come to Iwanami Cinema are basically veteran movie lovers, and those invited are well-known figures in the movie industry.

   The host directly handed the microphone to Yujiro Iwanami who stretched out his hand,

   "Nagayama-kun, I noticed that in the subtitles at the end of the movie, the original soundtrack of the movie is called "SilentLove", and the creator wrote it by Naoki Naoyama?"

   "Hey, I created this piece of music." Naoki Naoki nodded embarrassedly.

  Iwaha Yujiro exclaimed: "The movie is a masterpiece, and the soundtrack is also a masterpiece by Nagayama-kun! This movie is the biggest surprise this year!"

   "Arigado~ President Iwanami is so rewarding!"

  Nagayama Naoki bowed to the old man and thanked him. His words made the box office of this movie at least 10% higher!

   And the reporters also pressed the shutter frantically. With the comments of this boss, today's news has a selling point!

The interview process after    was very active, and there were a lot of questions from the audience, but for the film, they basically praised it.

  The simple interview lasted for half an hour, which almost delayed the next movie. However, depending on the boss's attitude, the next three months, "That Summer, The Tranquil Sea" should be shown.

  Ido Shuichi also has to accompany his teacher, and Komori Masataka also has to do some finishing work for the preview. Instead, the director Naoki Naoyama has nothing to do and separates himself from the two leading actors after the show.

   Sending Hirojiro Shimizu off at the entrance of the theater, Naoki Naoki and Yuki Saito were talking:

   "Yuki-chan, are you going back directly?".

   The little girl who had just finished her first media interview, and her excitement had not dissipated at this time. At this time, she said a little excitedly: "Hey, take the subway directly, and then transfer back to Yokohama."

  Nagayama Naoki looked at the sky, it was still a long time before noon: "It's rare to come to Tokyo once, why don't you go shopping?"

   Saito Yuki shook his head: "It's no fun to go shopping alone."

   glanced quietly at Naoshu Yongshan, saw that he didn't mean to answer, and murmured for a while: "Boys shouldn't say 'then shall I accompany you?' What a piece of wood!"

Naoki Naoki looked at the little girl who didn't speak, but he still answered: "That's true! It's really boring to go shopping alone! But when Yuki-chan moves to the staff dormitory of the GG office, you can go with the wild cat three. The sisters went out for a walk together!"

   ". Hehe, what Naokushi-san said is that~"

   "Sa, if that's the case, Yugui-chan should go to the station first, and I'll excuse myself first~" Naoki Yongshan walked away dashingly, leaving a young and beautiful girl alone at the subway entrance.

   Saito Yuki stomped angrily and turned away unwillingly~

   It was not yet noon, and Naoki Naoyama was not in a hurry to go home. It was a rare visit to Jimbocho, and he also thought about buying a few books to use when he went back to kill time.

   Walking slowly, Yongshan Zhishu walked through the alley. Under the warm autumn sun, you can see the owner of the bookstore, taking out the books in the store and selling them at the door of the store, and drying them by the way.

   Pedestrians who come and go stop and watch from time to time, and even pick up and turn a few pages if they are interested.

   In addition to books, there are poetry collections, pictorials, Naoki Naoki even saw old clip books and other items, which is almost the same as the second-hand market.

  Basically all bookstores have their own "Love Letters" in the bestseller recommendation area.

  Nagayama Naoki strolled leisurely on the street with a bag in his hand, picked up some pictorial newspapers, and bought two British poetry books.

  Although Jimbocho is full of bookstores and coffee shops, it does not mean that there are no other shops. There are also many shops that should be found in other commercial streets.

   After walking for a while, I heard a familiar melody coming from the record store,

  I took a closer look, and there were posters hanging at the door.

   Akina Nakamori's new single album "SecondLove" has been officially released!

  Yongshan Naoki did not go into the store to buy it, because Ming Cai will definitely send him a record,

   Looking at the girl with a thick head and smiling brightly on the poster, Naoki Naoki also smiled. It will be Halloween in a few days. Give her a fun gift~
