Murakami Iori and Chihara Rinto left the main building and went directly into the annex building on the left, which is the territory of the production bureau. The two of them were still walking and chatting, not much about work, mainly getting to know each other.
, deepen understanding.
Taking advantage of each other, related interests, becoming friends, common practice in the workplace.
After entering the production bureau, more and more people greeted Iori Murakami, and they were all very enthusiastic. Rinto Chihara followed and watched, and took a moment to joke: "I didn't expect Miss Murakami to be so popular."
Obviously the shoulder pads are so wide and thick and yet they are so popular. The aesthetics of this era are really speechless!
Murakami Iori couldn't help but laugh and said softly: "I only became popular yesterday."
The people at the TV station were very well-informed. Murakami Iori had just become a producer and had a program that he could decide on. He started to have a little power. Everyone basically knew about it, and their attitudes immediately became a lot more friendly.
Then Murakami Iori laughed at herself: "I don't know how long it will be popular..." If "Amazing World Stories" failed and was cut in half, it wouldn't be enough to laugh at her face to face, but I'm afraid she wouldn't be so enthusiastic.
Not as good as before.
Qianhara Rinto comforted him: "Don't worry, we can do a good job. You have to have confidence."
"Yes, you must have confidence, there is no way out." Murakami Iori nodded lightly, and his face turned serious for a moment. The TV station does not allow failure, and no one can guarantee not to pounce, but if someone like her with no qualifications fails,
It’s hard to make a comeback, and even if we can, it might not happen until ten or eight years later, when the day lilies are already cold.
In fact, she had been worried. She hadn't slept well in the past two days, and she had to eat three bowls of frozen cucumber slices to get rid of her goldfish eyes. However, the producer had to bear the pressure of work, so she had no choice but to think less about it. She turned
He looked at Chihara Rinto and smiled and said: "Chihara-san, now we are partners in common struggle. You don't need to always use honorifics, just call me Murakami."
You are actually my leader. Qianhara Rinto, an outsider, was a little unsure of what to do, so he politely said: "This is not appropriate, you are a senior."
I heard that the relationship between seniors and juniors in the Japanese workplace is also very strict. It is not as good as in universities, but it is not far behind.
Murakami Iori is sincere, mainly because he feels that he is about the same age as Chihara Rinto, and screenwriters are generally more neurotic, so it never hurts to coax him to work harder.
She smiled and said: "Then you are still a screenwriter. Do you want me to call you Teacher Qianyuan?"
In Japan, there are three types of people who are generally respected, namely lawyers, doctors and writers. These three types of people are considered to be people who can help most people. Among them, writers are even called national teachers, and their avatars are
Printed on banknotes (doctors also have them), and screenwriters are somewhat similar to writers in nature, and it is not uncommon for them to be often addressed as "teacher". In a few years, even cartoonists and light novel writers will be called this, no matter how old they are.
age.
When it came to this, Qianyuan Rinto stopped being polite and acquiesced. He smiled and said: "If you can't afford it, just call me Qianyuan."
Murakami Iori smiled with satisfaction, stretched out his hand and pressed the elevator button. Just when he was about to tell Chihara Rinto which floor the film crew was on, an uncle in his fifties suddenly appeared next to him and made a 90-degree bow: "Murakami-san
,Hello!"
Murakami Iori looked sideways and quickly returned the greeting: "Senior Nagano, hello, I've been greeting you for a long time."
"What the hell." Nagano straightened up and complimented, "Yesterday I heard that Miss Murakami was promoted. As expected, talented people always stand out. Congratulations."
Nagano, who was in his fifties, had a very low profile. Even when he was facing a young woman of about twenty-six years old, she still had a respectful smile on her face. Murakami Iori did not dare to be scornful and kept saying: "
The words are serious, the words are serious, it is all thanks to the blessing of the seniors."
Nagano said a few more polite words to her, turned to look at Qianhara Rinto, and asked: "This is..."
Murakami Iori quickly introduced them to each other: "Chihara, this is Mr. Nagano Teppei, the president of Ishimotobashi Entertainment Agency; Nagano-senpai, this is Mr. Chihara Rinto, the creative screenwriter of our crew."
Nagano Teppei was surprised, "So young? Ah, I'm so rude! Mr. Qianhara, this is our first meeting, please take good care of me in the future." He added a bow.
Qianyuan Rinto couldn't figure out what this person was doing, so he quickly returned the greeting: "Senior Nagano, please give me your advice in the future."
After the two of them had greeted each other, Teppei Nagano stood up and looked at Rinto Chihara, and said, "Chihara-sensei is really young and promising. He became the chief screenwriter at such a young age. His works will definitely be very popular in the future."
"Thank you for your kind words, Nagano-senpai."
"This is my business card, please accept it."
"This... I'm sorry, I don't have a business card yet." Chihara Rinto couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. There are so many things going on in the workplace in Japan. In China, it would only be a handshake.
"It's okay, it's okay." Nagano Teppei was very talkative, while Murakami Iori glanced at the changing numbers in the elevator, smiled and interjected, "Nagano-senpai is here this time..."
Nagano Teppei quickly turned around and waved, and then said: "Bring the newcomers here to see the world."
Following his words, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl ran over in small steps and made a ninety-degree bow: "Hello, seniors, I am Ueki Safuko, please take care of me."
This time, Murakami Iori nodded as a return gift, looked at the girl, and asked Nagano Teppei curiously: "Is this a new seedling you discovered?"
Nagano Teppei signaled his duty officer Safuko to hand over two laminated cards, and said with a smile: "I'm not boasting, Safuko is talented, no less talented than Miss Asami. I will ask Miss Murakami and Teacher Chihara to take care of her in the future if she commits a crime."
What's wrong? Please don't be polite, just scold her loudly!"
"Nagano-senpai still has such good vision!" Iori Murakami praised Nagano, then smiled and encouraged Safuko: "Keep up the good work in the future, I look forward to your activity."
"Yes, senior, I will definitely work hard!"
Chihara Rinto couldn't say anything, so he looked at the plastic card in his hand and found that it was a special "business card". It not only had Safiko's photo, but also her detailed information, such as age, height, weight, measurements,
Special skills, etc.
As soon as he took a look, the elevator dinged. Murakami Iori immediately said apologetically: "Senior Nagano, we are getting ready to go up. You..."
"Ah, I'm sorry, I wasted your time!" Nagano Teppei quickly bowed and said: "Ms. Murakami, Mr. Chihara, please go slowly."
Murakami and Chihara returned the greeting together, and then entered the elevator. When the elevator door closed, Nagano and Safiko were still bowing at the door!
There was no one else in the elevator. Qianhara Rinto shook the plastic card in his hand and asked, "What does this mean?"
Didn't you just come here to ask for roles after hearing that a film crew was being formed? You are so capable of action!
Iori Murakami said nonchalantly: "It doesn't mean anything special. It's just a tradition to take the newcomers to visit the TV station staff and get to know each other."
"That's it." Chihara Rinto felt that his horizons had been opened. He felt that the Japanese entertainment industry was completely different from China's, and asked again: "Are you familiar with this Nagano-senpai? Have you collaborated before?"
He is not familiar with the place here, and he always wants to ask more questions and learn more about the environment. What if this old boy from Nagano is a sweeping monk type of person? There are many capable people and strangers in the world, so you must be careful!
"This man has been an agent for more than 20 years and is familiar with the entire TV station staff." Murakami Iori said casually, and found that Chihara Rinto seemed to be more interested, so he introduced him in detail: "This man
He has a good vision and has discovered and trained many good actors and singers, who are somewhat famous in the industry. However, the company is too small and lacks capital to promote popular people. The people under his command who have a little bit of fame are poached by other big companies.
"
"No lawsuit?"
Iori Murakami rolled her hair around her ears, shook her head and said, "I've never heard of him. He has a good character and a good reputation in the industry. He is one of the rare managers who really cares about artists. Generally, artists think for themselves.
Now that I'm gone, he won't make things difficult for me."
Because of his good character, he has never been a big player in the company. However, he has a good reputation and seniority. Everyone treats him politely. Qianhara Rinto understands.
He picked up Safiko's "business card" and took a closer look at it, and found that this girl did have "talent" and at least she was pretty good-looking. It was estimated that as long as she gained a little bit of fame, she would inevitably be abducted by a big agency and the company's resources would be stolen.
There are many, wide connections, easy to create stars, and strong ability to attract money. The average artist cannot resist this temptation. If a small company doesn't tie the contract and use some tricks, it will be impossible to retain people.
The elevator stopped soon. When Iori Murakami went out, he threw the card into the trash can. Chihara Rinto was stunned and didn't know what was going on.
Murakami Iori looked back at him, understood, and couldn't help laughing: "This thing is useless, sometimes I can receive more than a dozen copies a day. When it comes to casting, just get the information directly from the bureau, and it's all on record.
.”
So that’s it. Although I used to be very concerned about the Japanese TV industry, I was still too far away, so I was looking at things in the fog, and I still didn’t quite understand the routines of the Japanese TV production bureau.
Chihara Rinto followed suit and threw the card into the trash can. It felt a bit disrespectful, but this thing is probably just like the business card, something that is given here and thrown away.
Japan prints more than 2 billion business cards a year. If they were not allowed to throw them away, after so many years, everyone would probably have to have a room dedicated to storing business cards. People on the TV station should think so too. New artists debut every day.
Every artist comes to pay homage to the mountain and spreads it around. Over the years, there may be tens of millions of copies, and there is no way to save them.
The artist should also know about it, but he probably wouldn't dare not give it away, right?
He thought about it in his mind and followed Murakami Iori to a small conference room. Murakami Iori pointed to the sign and said: "This is the headquarters of our crew."
Chihara Rinto took a closer look and found that it was a paper sign with the words "World Wonder Story Execution Headquarters" on it. It didn't feel like it was preparing to film a TV series, but more like a secondary magic organization. Fortunately, it didn't choose the drama "Abnormal".
If one were to perform work in the perverted headquarters, that picture would be...
Murakami Iori opened the door directly and led Chihara Rinto in. There were already people waiting inside, and he stood up when he heard the noise.
Murakami Iori began to introduce again: "Chihara, this is director Fujii Arima; Fujii-kun, this is teacher Chihara Rinto."
"Hello, Mr. Chihara." Fujii Arima is very Westernized and took the initiative to choose the handshake.
This man looked to be in his late forties and much older than Chihara Rinto. Chihara Rinto shook his hand back hard and said politely: "Just call me Chihara, Fujii-san."
"Then call me Fujii!" Fujii Arima doesn't look like a traditional Japanese. He doesn't have the airs of his predecessors, but his head is a bit dazzling. This man has a shaved head, which is really shiny.
Fujii Arima noticed his gaze, stretched out his hand to touch his head, and sighed: "Don't be surprised, after the age of thirty-five, men become like dandelions."
What do you mean? Chihara Rinto didn't understand, so he hesitated and asked: "Wandering and experiencing vicissitudes of life?" This person is quite poetic. Isn't he a commercial director, but a literary one?
Fujii Arima sighed: "No, when the wind blows, some things are gone."
It turns out that he was not shaved, but bald...
Qianhara Rinto was speechless for a moment. This person looked quite serious, and I didn't expect him to be joking. However, he felt like a nice person, at least not difficult to get along with.
