856, even if the box office collapses, it will only be a few million...
...
On a port where the marriage controversy of top idols continues to spread, the last episode of "Love Century" has finally been aired.
Love like a crystal apple makes all urban men and women look forward to it, and the crystal apple in "Century of Love" has become a standard gift for young lovers.
The last episode should have been a very important node, but the more powerful hot news occupied all the attention. Although the ratings had no impact, the overall momentum felt a bit anticlimactic.
"So, Kijima-kun is completely free now, right?"
Naoki Nagayama looked at Kyū Kijima, who was following him like a follower, with helplessness on his face.
"You just finished working on a big project, can't you take a good rest? Go travel, fall in love, find a young lady... There are so many interesting things in the world!"
"I don't think it's as interesting as following Naoki-san to make a creative movie!"
Kijima Xu said very sincerely, and looked at Nagayama Naoki with admiring eyes. If he didn't know that this guy would also go to the custom shop, Nagayama Naoki would have thought that he was going to have sex...
"Besides...if I were to take the photo, I would definitely be more inconspicuous than Sakata-kun!"
Well... low presence has become an advantage when applying for jobs!
But...haven't you seen the murderous look in Koaki Sakata's eyes when he looked at you? It's such a great opportunity to make a movie with Naoki Nagayama, and people want to make progress!
"But...Sakata-kun has been rehearsing with us for so long and is already familiar with the script..."
"I can also rehearse, and I can also become familiar with the script!"
Kijima Kyon didn't even look at Sakata Komei. Although they usually get along well, Sakata-kun, the workplace is such a cruel thing... For a good opportunity, even good brothers will stab each other in the back without hesitation.
of!
"Sakata-kun, one seat is not enough, having one more can make you safer!"
"Well......"
Nagayama Naoki was in a very difficult position. After all, Kijima Kyun was the third seed cultivated by tree friends. The first two were Itou Shuichi and Komori Masataka...
At this time, Itou Shuichi seemed to have seen an opportunity. At first, he couldn't bear to fight with Xiao Xiao, but now you have started to quarrel among yourself, so I will...
"Naoki-san, actually I don't have anything to do now... it's better..."
Kyū Kijima and Koaki Sakata felt nervous at the same time. If this senior intervened, what would happen to their two juniors? They immediately united the front.
Sakata Kongming said quickly:
"Naoki-san, actually it's a bit tiring for me to control the camera for seven or eight hours a day by myself. When the actual shooting begins, it may be even more tiring. If Kijima-kun can share the burden, it will really help a lot!"
Kijima Xu also nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, yes, if there are two people, the workload of behind-the-scenes shooting can be enough!"
"Since Sakata Koaki said so, then you should discuss sharing time with Kijima-kun!"
Nagayama Naoki finally made up his mind, and then said to Itou Shuichi,
"Shuichi-san, let's give the younger generation some opportunities... If you have more free time now, why not go and direct Masataka-kun's "Haijie Diary", which has a large crew of dozens of people..."
.”
"...."
Itou Shuichi stopped talking... You can learn new things and experience new movie shooting ideas with Nagayama Naoki, but with "Umi Street Diary", it's all just hard work...
....You have to teach others... Only fools should do it.
After more than half a month of practice, everyone on the crew has become proficient in cooperating and has learned a lot about one-shot shooting, so Naoki Nagayama no longer wants to stand still.
He called the crew together:
"Mina-san, everyone is already familiar with the script, and the rehearsals have been going on for so long... It's time to get more intense!"
"Hi!!!" Everyone answered confidently.
"Next, we have to officially start shooting!" Naoki Nagayama said, "We polished it over and over again, trying to complete the entire shot of more than half an hour!"
It takes half an hour to make no mistakes at all, but this requires repeating it countless times!
I heard that when the future bully Ma Kui was filming "Spider-Man 1", he was filmed more than 150 times simply picking up a dinner plate with his bare hands... This was only about ten seconds of footage!
"We understand!"
The crew had no idea about the future at all, and they all looked complacent!
However, they will soon face a heavy blow!
........
The actual shooting with Naoki Nagayama's participation was more than twice as brutal as when Souo Matsuo was the director.
"The crew is on camera, let's do it again!"
"Mihuna-chan, you didn't keep up! Try again!"
"Make-up artist, the zombie's makeup is so beautiful, how can the zombie sweat? Let's do it again!"
"...Come again!" "Come again!" "Come again!"
In just one morning, plus half an afternoon, the number of rehearses was comparable to that of a whole week... Everyone in the crew suddenly understood why they had to rehearse so many times before!
This is really torture!
When it was getting close to evening, Naoki Nagayama saw that all the leading actors looked stagnant and couldn't even lift their emotions, so he shouted "Ka".
"cut! That's it for today!"
Naoki Nagayama looked at the listless people and nodded. He wanted to feel so depressed so as to create a contrast! When everyone has conditioned themselves to reflect on this, they can shoot the entire shot without even realizing it!
Then at the end, the joy and elation in that shot seemed extremely real!
"Everyone go back and have a good rest... We will continue tomorrow!"
"....Hi~~~"
Everyone was dejected, and even their answers were perfunctory...
After Naoki Nagayama and Shuichi Itou said hello, they drove back to the studio in downtown Tokyo. Otomo Yoshimura had called before and asked him to take time to go back.
........
"Naoki-san! You're back!"
Yukika Suzuki at the front desk has returned to normal and greets Naoki Nagayama sweetly when she sees him.
There are constant hot topics these days, and things about "Paradise Lost" have long passed through her mind. Little Emperor's Book and other things, how can it be as interesting as the flash marriage of today's top idol!
"Yeah~" Nagayama Naoki nodded, "Otomo-san is in the office, right?"
"Hi! Otomo-san is always here!"
After leaving the front desk and greeting everyone in the studio, Naoki Nagayama walked into the office.
"Otomo-san...why did you ask me to come back?"
"Ah, Naoki-san...why did you come here so late..." Otomo Fangcun looked at the time and felt a little helpless, "I originally asked you to come back because I wanted to take a look in the morning or noon.
Tree Friends’ new headquarters…”
"New headquarters...."
Only then did Nagayama Naoki remember that Shuyou Group bought an office building in Ikebukuro as its new headquarters at the beginning of the year, and it is now being renovated!
"So, has it been renovated?"
Fangcun Dayou nodded:
"The hard decoration is almost finished, and all the water, electricity, air conditioning and the like can be used." Fangcun Otomo introduced, "Due to the use of environmentally friendly materials and log furniture, the smell is relatively light..."
He stood up and handed a document to Naoki Nagayama:
"It's time to prepare to move!"
Looking at the name of the "Shuyou Co., Ltd. Headquarters Relocation Plan" on the document, Naoki Nagayama felt a little emotional. Are they really going to move there?!
Turning to the first page, the time on it is actually June...
"Don't we have to move in June? It makes it seem like we have to move tomorrow!" Nagayama Naoki curled his lips, "Otomo-san, let me be happy for nothing..."
"Of course company relocation can't be that simple!" Fangcun Dayou glared at him, "The arrangement of the studio office facilities, the grouping of employees, the moving process, and even the time for other employees to re-plan their work routes...
Everything must be planned in advance!"
"We will distribute the notice a little in advance so that everyone can get familiar with it early! Then there will be no need to miss anything in a hurry!"
"Hey, hey, hey!" Nagayama Naoki nodded, "Otomo-san can just take care of all this! What do you want from me?"
"After you move to your new home, you will have to hold something similar to a pep rally... Naoki-san, you have to be prepared to give a speech!" Otomo Yoshimura said.
"Eh??? Couldn't it be enough for Otomo-san to just go up and say it?!"
"No...moving is a big deal, even bigger than structural adjustment..."
Fangcun Dayou solemnly said that in neon, or in all countries with oriental culture, there is a custom of relocation. For a neon company, moving to a new headquarters is a completely new stage...
..So the president must speak!
"So Naoki-san, you can't hide this time!"
"...."
Although he didn't like giving speeches, Naoki Nagayama still agreed after seeing the serious look in Yoshimura Otomo's eyes.
At worst, I’m going to make three points today, and there are more than a dozen small points in the third point... I’ve all seen the leader’s speech, so there’s nothing to be afraid of!
Seeing that he had persuaded his willful president, Yoshimura Otomo breathed a sigh of relief and then said:
"I originally planned to take a look at the new headquarters with Naoki-san today, but now it's so late..."
"Naoki-san, why don't you go take a look tomorrow?"
"Alright~"
Nagayama Naoki nodded. Anyway, as a director and person in charge, his work arrangements can be very flexible... At the worst, he can let the crew rehearse first to practice their skills...
I continued chatting with Yoshimura Otomo about moving for a while, and found out that after the move, we would have to notify other cooperative companies and other acquaintances... They would send wreaths to celebrate and so on...
For some regular partners, they have to come to formally notify them of their change of address...
In short, moving a large Neon company is like opening a new company~
After that, we talked about the movie we were filming.
"Naoki-san, are the promotions for "The Cameras Don't Stop" about to start?" Yoshimura Otomo asked, "Looking at this situation, Matsuda Seiko's news may not be able to get any better until May. They themselves
There are also movies...Movie promotion may require more energy!"
"Yeah~" Nagayama Naoki also agreed, but immediately became relaxed, "But Otomo-san, our film this time has nothing to do with Matsuda Seiko's love or anything like that. It's not in the same field, and it doesn't have much to do with it.
~”
"And... I plan to promote "The Camera Can't Stop" this time in a special way..."
"oh?"
Fangcun Dayou became curious, because Naoki Nagayama's understanding of advertising has always been amazing, and every weird behavior can achieve good publicity effects.
"This time... I plan to use slogans such as 'horror' and 'bloody' to promote "The Camera Don't Stop" ~" Nagayama Naoki said eloquently, "wait until the first batch of audiences are tricked into the cinema
Later, due to the special nature of this movie, some of them will definitely complain that the first half hour is shit!"
"Then... suppress first and then boost~" Naoki Nagayama said excitedly, "To use 'Naoki Nagayama' to actually make such a bad movie to lower expectations... and then use 'see what's behind'
There are surprises, "you can't stop laughing until the end"...etc., to change the audience's impression."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Listening to his president’s narration, Yoshimura Otomo felt quite uneasy:
"Naoki-san... But what if I accidentally mess up and it turns out to be a bad movie?! I want to change the audience's perception,"
"No!" Naoki Nagayama shook his head, "I am very confident in my new movie!"
"...."
If an ordinary director said this, Yoshimura Otomo would immediately give him a few slaps to wake him up!
You think the audience is your own family, do you think your movie will definitely be according to your ideas?! I spent so much money to let you do whatever you want?!
But...this is Naoki Nagayama!
Of all the movies he has ever made, Naoki Nagayama’s box office has never been less than 1 billion!
"Naoki-san..." Yoshimura Otomo still advised, "How about playing it safe...if the box office really collapses..."
"Silly tape!" Nagayama Naoki waved his hand, "Anyway, the investment is only a few million, so even if it collapses, you won't lose money!"
After saying this, Yoshimura Otomo instantly felt relaxed... Yes, it's only a few million...
Even if it collapses, as long as it is said to be Naoki Nagayama's spur-of-the-moment creative work, the filmmaking attempt itself is pioneering and niche... it will not hurt Naoki Nagayama's reputation...
.
No matter how you think about it, you won’t lose money!
"Well, Naoki-san, let's do it!"
...........
When the sky gradually darkened, Naoki Nagayama left the studio... Just as he was about to drive away, he turned back and glanced at this inconspicuous studio...
Starting from magazine photos, I entered the entertainment industry. I shot my first commercial here, my first TV series "Wonderful Stories of the World", and all kinds of memories in the past few years...
"I didn't expect that I would have to leave here after all... This is tree friend's first home!"
In the future, this studio will be included in the management of Shuyou Pictures and serve as an indoor base to return to the original photography function of the studio... Itou Shuichi has returned to his old career. I don’t know if there is still a way for adult magazines.
Is it broken?
While speeding on the highway, Nagayama Naoki suddenly remembered,
"Speaking of which, the renovation of Sanzakuin has been going on for a while... shouldn't we go take a look?"
"By the way, let's see if all the cherry blossoms in Yamasakura-in have faded...but they should all be leaves now!"
"The short bamboos on the wall should have a lot of new shoots... I don't know if they have been shoveled out..."
"There are also dry landscapes and rockery rocks..."
After living in Yamazakura for more than four years, when I think about it, I do still miss him a little... Nagayama Naoki turned the steering wheel and started driving in the direction of Chiyoda.
