After returning to Tokyo, Tao Zhiming first found Yuta Irie.

At that time, when he was the eldest brother, Yuma Nara, his younger brother, naturally had to let Yuta Irie, the original "Fox of Shindo", complete such a major family matter.

"You mean, Xiaoying's aunt?" After hearing Tao Zhiming's introduction, Irie Yuta was shocked, "I really didn't expect...it happened more than 20 years ago, and now I would suddenly get clues like this..."

Tao Zhiming made a copy of the photo and gave it to Irie Yuta: "In short, let's use the power of the Inagawa Society here in Tokyo and pay attention to the movements of Koike Takaya. The matter of Fujiwara Arisa must have nothing to do with him, that

At that time, Koike Takaya was also a child. However, since the crux lies with Kijima Genichi, we should first pay attention to Koike Takaya, his younger brother, to see if there is anything he can do in Tokyo."

"I understand!" Yuta Irie said solemnly.

In the Hunji Way, apart from loving the excitement, most people embark on that path in a muddle-headed manner, and cannot easily look back after that. After meeting Tao Zhiming, the two original brothers each had their own destiny. Now Yuma

When something like this happened, he thought that Sakura had married into the Nara family and changed her name to Nara Sakura. Yuta Irie also wanted to help Yuma handle this matter.

Tao Zhiming thought for a while and then ordered: "There is one more thing to do. Get Haruno Haruka's visa procedures to go to the United States, Idali and several other countries in Europe, Ouilt, and Xiang Island. This trip,

I will take her with me."

Irie Yuta was a little confused, but he didn't ask any more questions. He received the task and went to make arrangements.

Tao Zhiming then went to find a different person.

Ask Kinoshita Hidefeng to help pay attention to Kijima Genichi's past and current actions over the years, communicate with Anzai Zenue and Nojima Tatsuo about the situation that Horikawa Nobuhiko is currently planning in Kansai, and he begins

Prepared for this trip abroad.

After a trip to Kansai, another week has passed and the second episode of "The Last Echo of the Showa Era" has begun.

The content of this issue has a new form.

The 10 candidates were asked to edit music videos for the songs of the TV series, so naturally they had to watch the entire series first.

Other TV stations were all shocked to find that TV Tokyo actually sent out 10 camera crews for this program, which was considered to be filming 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Not only that, at least two camera crews were sent to interview relatives and friends of these 10 candidates.

The workload and cost are simply outrageous.

Considering that they are filming here and TV Tokyo has to edit this program in such a short period of time, I don’t know how many people stayed up late and worked overtime.

Is this a show that has invested billions of yen in the grand prize? The investment of Pantao Pictures, Dimensional Culture and Wandetar in this show is exaggerated when you think about it.

However, the effect presented is still great.

From the beginning of this period, the level of competition continued to increase.

It should be material that has been prepared in advance, Hayao Miyazaki, Akira Kurosawa, Momoe Yamaguchi... The opening scene is a gathering of stars, and interviews with them are mixed together with live shooting of film and television dramas and behind-the-scenes editing.

Using such a carefully prepared piece of content is just to show the difficulty of the creation process of film and television works.

But as an audience, what you feel is the selection of stars this time and the importance Pantao Pictures attaches to this new star director project.

[The 10 candidates have entered a creative state where they forget about food and sleep. The goal is: the winner! 】

[This victory or defeat is cruel. It takes 7 days to select appropriate content from dozens of hours of feature material and edit it into an excellent music video. The time left for everyone is the same. They,

How exactly will it work?]

[This scene is familiar to everyone who works...]

After entering the main film, there is a countdown on the screen every moment.

"Iwai-kun, it's time to take a rest, right? We'll continue watching tomorrow." The voiceover was probably from the reporter who was filming Shunji Iwai. The time displayed on the screen was already past three in the morning.

"It's okay. Oh, if you must record all the material, just put the camera there."

"It doesn't matter to me. After all, I came here on a different shift. Besides, I still need to change the video tape. Iwai-kun, if this continues, it will affect your health..."

Shunji Iwai in the picture looked at the camera and smiled: "Isn't this the time when we are young and can work hard? I heard that after passing the first round of work, there will be a week of rest to come up with the shooting plan for Ms. Sakai's album.

Time. Besides, if you fail, it will be all rest time. It doesn’t matter..."

The scene of Shunji Iwai at work has been reduced, and interviews with his relatives and friends have been inserted at appropriate times.

The first half of this program is carried out in this way, allowing the audience to learn more about these 10 candidates. Each one is an ordinary person who is still unknown at this time, and the best part of each person's past life

, whether it is short-term success or real setbacks, they are all used as footnotes, and the interview is accompanied by images of them working late at night with the countdown constantly beating.

Like most social animals, there are situations where they have to stay up late and work overtime for their dreams or life.

In this issue, there is also an interview with Tao Zhiming.

"Why only give it a week? It's too short. Maybe there are better people who need to slowly refine the style. Under huge pressure, inspiration won't burst out so easily, right?"

Tao Zhiming in the picture sighed sadly: "There is no way. Although the program is recorded and broadcast, for the 10 of them, this incident is a live broadcast. In this drama of life, every moment

It's a live broadcast. I can't support everyone, so at least show the process of their hard work for opportunities to more people. Even if they lose in this selection, more people should notice them.

The talent, and the hard work you can put in if you have the opportunity.”

"I see... President Tao, why do you admire Iwai-kun so much?"

Tao Zhiming smiled: "Don't mention him all the time. It seems to create the illusion that he is the protagonist of this selection. In fact, he is just the moment when I am preparing to discover new directors in this way, and it happens to come into my mind."

It's just the person in the field of vision. Like the other nine people, I'm looking forward to each one of them."

"Can you tell me why the director chose Yasuko Sawaguchi as the lead actor in that movie first? Isn't that the director's job?"

This question is very topical, with implications of the scandal, and whether the chosen director is just a puppet.

Tao Zhiming was naturally prepared for this question, and he answered frankly: "Of course there are more beautiful actors who are suitable for that role, but since I have already worked with Miss Sawaguchi Yasuko, I am not convinced of her ability and attitude in playing the role.

If you trust me very much, you will no longer

Think more about other people. As for why we, Pantao Pictures, decided on the candidate for the heroine first instead of leaving it to the director who will be selected, just think of it as our selfish desire to cultivate a big-name actress for Pantao Pictures, which was just established.

Bar."

He said this and looked at the camera with a smile: "By the way, I can also reveal to you here. Pantao Pictures has confirmed that it will invest in Toho, and Ms. Yasuko Sawaguchi has also changed her contract to Wandetar. In the future, our two families will

We will work together to invest in more electricity

Movies and TV series. So, let us be a little more willful in this movie. For the candidates, there will be more projects in the future that will give them greater room for performance. Even if they fail in this selection,

It’s not impossible to join the New Star Guide program in the future.”

So in this program, such a big news was released.

Pantao Pictures will invest in Toho, and the two companies will co-produce more works.

Against this background, the candidates' hard work of staying up late seems less cruel.

Afterwards, the countdown was cleared, and no matter whether they were completely satisfied with the work or not, all the candidates left Mogami Kukakucho and returned to TV Tokyo.

Each of the 10 candidates looked a little haggard. Fortunately, before everyone came here, no matter how slovenly they were before, they all took a shower and changed into decent clothes.

Because what I have to attend is a relatively grand TV series broadcast conference.

For viewers who have followed this program since the first episode, as well as those who have started paying attention to the TV series "My Love from the Star", this press conference is worth looking forward to.

For this reason, TV Tokyo specially moved the time of another program to form a continuous time period.

The scene was a quite large studio, and when the shots of the 10 candidates entered the studio, it was already full of people.

The creative team of "My Love from the Star", including Yasuko Sawaguchi and Takuya Kimura, are all here.

At the scene, nearly two hundred spectators were randomly selected to attend through phone registration and other channels the previous week.

The entire audience gave warm applause to the arrival of Shunji Iwai's 10 people.

Next, it is a period of time that is a feast for the eyes and ears of the audience at the scene and in front of the TV.

After playing the official title and trailer, some real scenes and plot synopses of this TV series were finally revealed. A man from an alien planet, who has lived from the Edo period to modern times, lives alone under the sky of Tokyo. He has super powers.

Although he is a genius, he quietly works as a lecturer at a university. Yasuko Sawaguchi plays a popular idol star. The love story of these two people also involves the heir of the Taisha Group and a murder mystery.

…

The subject matter is so novel that even the audience did not expect it. Who knew what "My Love from the Star" meant?

After the trailer was played, there was a live interview, with the directors, Yasuko Sawaguchi and Takuya Kimura taking the stage to share the creative process.

Needless to say, Sawaguchi Yasuko, Kimura Takuya got the first opportunity to show himself to a large audience. And his somewhat out-of-the-box personality created an extremely interesting contrast with the facially paralyzed character in the previous trailer. Listening to his sharing is a must-see.

There are some interesting things about entering a state of facial paralysis and it was very difficult to endure it. This handsome guy who has been popular for a long time started his own road to becoming a fan.

The highlight of this press conference is naturally the one-time broadcast of 10 songs, and after the music video of each song is played, the joint evaluation of the industry leaders, the crew and the audience invited to the scene.

With so many music videos, there will naturally be more scenes about this TV series.

For Iwai Shunji and others, this is the most critical link.

In order to make up for the previous "unfairness", his works were put first for everyone to judge.

"So, now is the time to take back the ending of the first episode! What will this music video of "Destiny" performed by Iwai-kun and sung by Akina Nakamori look like? Everyone, let's watch it together!"

Shunji Iwai couldn't help but clenched his fists. Half of the 10 people would be eliminated. If he fell in this round, it would mean that he was really incompetent. Others might still have a chance, but it would be difficult for him to gain the same respect as before.

.

At Yasuko Sawaguchi's house, Tao Zhiming and Yasuko Sawaguchi cuddled up together, also watching this episode.

Seeing Shunji Iwai's work start to play, Tao Zhiming couldn't help but laugh: "Tell me, when the show is over, will others say there is still something shady? Why did Shunji Iwai edit it like this and still advance to the next round?
To be continued...
