The production of the Yakuza film planned by Shinichi Iwahashi as an introduction to his connection with the Inagawa Society came to an end this spring.
From the time Shinichi Iwahashi came up with the idea of making this movie to the time when the actual filming began, many things happened. He himself was suspected of being attacked by Yakuza elements. No matter what the internal situation was, to the outside world, it was already
It became a kind of pre-release "publicity" for the Yakuza movies he participated in producing.
When the movie enters the promotion stage, I'm afraid the public will still think of that incident.
However, Shinichi Iwahashi has no intention of bringing up the old matter again and conveying his intention to the media. At that time, the media will not talk about that matter again. Even media like "Shukan Bunshun" who watch the excitement and don't think it's a big deal, in this case
When it comes to things, you also have to sell some face.
Without the media to fan the flames, relying solely on public memory will eventually turn into an unfounded urban legend.
Thanks to the Inagawa Kai, when the movie is released, the young guys in the team will go in groups to support the box office. Perhaps, there will also be friendly support from the Sumiyoshi Kai guys——
I hope that young adults from different groups will not fight over trivial issues of seniority outside the cinema.
The script of the movie was written by Yuki Mitani, whose talent Iwahashi Shinichi has already learned. He is best at engaging in some black humor with a straight face, and then calmly observing everyone's reactions. The script written by him, and the people who handled it
I’ve seen it and everyone is full of praise.
This talented man, who remembers that one film is the next, had a sudden idea after the film entered the production stage. When he called Shinichi Iwahashi to communicate about the progress, he suggested that Shinichi Iwahashi should play a small role in the movie.
"He is a person who looks calm and strong like a tough guy like Takakura Kenso." Mitani Yuki introduced to Iwahashi Shinichi on the phone.
Shinichi Iwahashi listened and found it interesting, "Should I play a role like Takakura Kenso?"
The executives at the production company believe that Shinichi Iwahashi has a dream of becoming a hero, so he actively promotes a Yakuza movie. If he plays "Takakura Ken" again, the label of narcissist will probably be attached to him.
.
Although playing a tough guy like Ken Takakura seems too narcissistic, Shinichi Iwahashi himself has never been interested in acting, but the screenwriter suggested to himself that playing a tough guy would give him the pleasure of being flattered.
.
"Let me play Iwahashi-san. This role is very suitable. As a person with no acting experience, I have also given special consideration to your acting skills..." Mitani Yuki's words sounded very sincere.
However, this scriptwriter who gives people the impression of a robot, his stern speaking style, on the one hand, sounds very sincere, but on the other hand, there is a bit of cunning in secret, which always makes people have a sense of ominous premonition——
…
There is a famous actress in the family, but Shinichi Iwahashi, whose acting skills are only 11%, decided to seek advice from his wife before going to the filming site to make a cameo.
In the evening, Shinichi Iwahashi came back from work and was greeted by Akina Nakamori at the entrance: "Welcome home~" she smiled, "Would you like to eat first or take a shower first? Or give Akina a hug first?"
Iwahashi Shinichi heard what she said was out of tune and laughed at her: "I'm in a good mood today."
"We'll finish work on time at five-thirty. Before you come back, Shinichi, everything will be done beautifully. Besides, my stomach is just growling with hunger." Akina Nakamori took his coat and counted them one by one with him.
With.
After counting, she smiled again and winked at him, "It's best to eat together when you're hungry."
"That makes sense."
Iwahashi Shin nodded, thought for a while, and answered her question, "Before eating and taking a bath, it's better to hug Akina first..." He stretched out his arms and hugged the proud new wife. inside.
"However, because the couple's stomachs were growling with hunger, they could only give a normal hug." Akina Nakamori imitated the narration in the TV show and explained the situation seriously.
Iwahashi Shinichi had no choice but to deal with her childishness, so he sighed helplessly and patted her.
Nakamori Akina pressed her cheek against his shoulder, knowing that he couldn't see it. She rolled her eyes slyly, imitating Iwahashi Shinichi, and reached out to pat him, "Then, eat a hearty meal to build up your energy. .......President Sang."
As soon as Nakamori Akina called him President-san, Iwahashi Shinichi felt very good.
The puppy Kenta, who had already enjoyed dinner, ran to Shinichi Iwahashi and spun around at his feet. In front of the dining table, the two of them were chatting about what happened today.
Iwahashi Shinichi told her, "That Mitani Yuki-san invited me to guest star in the movie."
Akina Nakamori was very interested, "Really? What kind of role do you want to play?" She automatically started to think about it and thought for a while, "As for Mitani-san, I feel like you will be asked to play a very contrasting role. ."
"Really?" Shinichi Iwahashi was curious about her conclusion.
Akina Nakamori nodded, "That person's works give people the impression that everything is unexpected." She smiled and mentioned the old things, "Didn't Shinichi say that Mitani-san wanted me to play a character who suffered from domestic violence? The wife who killed her husband.”
"Invite a wife who lives a happy newlywed life to play such a role." Shinichi Iwahashi also laughed.
He somewhat agreed with Akina Nakamori's judgment. In addition to admiring her, Akina Nakamori's judgment was also vaguely connected with the ominous premonition in Shinichi Iwahashi's heart when he heard the invitation.
"So, what kind of character is it?" Akina Nakamori put the egg rolls on her plate onto Shinichi Iwahashi's plate, and picked out carrot slices for color matching, and gave them to her husband as a gift.
Iwahashi Shinichi replied: "According to Mitani-san, he is a 'tough guy who looks calm but is as tough as Takakura Ken-san'. Such a character."
Akina Nakamori didn't know whether she was amused by the description of this character, or by the way Shinichi Iwahashi described the character. She looked at Shinichi Iwahashi's face and commented: "Shenichi's words do have a calm expression. , a very manly face.”
After getting a few years older, Iwahashi Shinichi's face looks more interesting than when we first met him.
Iwahashi Shin put the carrots that appeared out of thin air on the plate into his mouth, "However, that Mitani-san probably won't be that simple."
"Has Shinichi decided to act?" Akina Nakamori asked him.
Iwahashi Shinichi joked with her, "If I hadn't refused at the beginning and then refused after learning that the role was not as good as it sounded, wouldn't I look more like a narcissist?"
Nakamori Akina smiled and rolled her eyes, "To put it this way, wouldn't it be more narcissistic to immediately agree to play a role like Takakura Kenso as soon as I heard about it?"
"That makes sense." Iwahashi Shin nodded, "Now, I have to act."
Akina Nakamori teased him, "I obviously wanted to act in it from the beginning."
Shinichi Iwahashi admitted, "That's why I wanted to ask actress Akina-san for some acting experience."
When Akina Nakamori heard that she could be of help, she immediately took care of her. Children in the shopping street are always warm-hearted, and even if they are not helpful, they are also brave.
Judging from the way she is ready to teach everything, she will probably spend tonight in role-playing.
After moving into the new home, all the relatives and friends who were to be entertained were also entertained, and the couple became accustomed to leaving and returning to the new house.
Returning to the peaceful Iwahashi family, the world of two people, plus a spoiled puppy, is happy and relaxed.
At the beginning of the day, Shinichi Iwahashi sat at the dining table and read the newspaper, always with the coffee brought to him by Akina Nakamori. When he read the eye-catching news, Shinichi Iwahashi told Akina Nakamori casually, and in exchange for her
Surprise or laughter.
Akina Nakamori doesn't like reading newspapers very much, but she enjoys it very much when Shinichi Iwahashi reads newspapers to her. Aware of this, Shinichi Iwahashi becomes more enthusiastic about reading newspapers to her.
At the beginning of the day, the couple seemed to have a real sense that a new day had begun again only when they were together.
Although the world between two people is beautiful, the couple, who have been married for a while and have enjoyed the undisturbed newlywed life, are beginning to long for the arrival of a new life, making the peaceful Iwahashi family lively.
That is a different kind of excitement, different from entertaining relatives and friends, or adapting to a new environment.
However, before that, when the spring break is about to begin, the Iwahashi family will welcome a guest who will stay here temporarily. Shinichi Iwahashi and Akina Nakamori discussed this matter, and when the wife happily agreed, they began to prepare for the guest.
Guests prepare.
…
Nakamori Akina's judgment and Iwahashi Shinichi's premonition all came true.
In fact, when Iwahashi Shinichi was planning the Yakuza movie, he knew that there would be no real positive characters based on the style requirements. In addition, Mitani Yuki's involvement would only lead to comedy and making a fool of himself.
"Iwahashi-san has a calm face, like Takakura Ken-san. Even if you don't act in a special way, you will give people an unfathomable impression." Mitani Yuki explained.
Therefore, the reason why he is set up as a tough guy like Ken Takakura is because Shinichi Iwahashi's acting skills are too poor to put too many demands on him, as long as he keeps a straight face... Speaking of which, Yuki Mitani's impression of Ken Takakura's acting skills,
It is similar to Yukio Mishima's evaluation of Ken Takakura's "Puppet".
But this character, who seems to be enigmatic and powerful, is actually very different. He was killed within two minutes of appearing on the scene, leaving him with nothing but the airs of a paper tiger.
...You know how you can have a good role as a guest star in a movie like this.
However, since he didn't refuse at the beginning, now that everyone has come, Iwahashi Shinichi had no choice but to go into battle with a smile, and live up to his "Ren Xia" addiction, which is worthy of his "Ren Xia" face.
Anyway, I am not a real Ren Xia, so playing a character who has the airs of Ren Xia is actually a perfect fit. The contrast and echo between the play and reality are indeed Mitani Yuuki's style.
Iwahashi Shinichi was mentally prepared to play the role in his true colors.
