Murakami Iori was worried and a little ashamed, thinking that his work was very unfavorable and he had not fulfilled his duties. However, Chihara Rinto was a little surprised: "It has only been a few days, but have we already negotiated for three theaters? It is very efficient!"
"
"The Camera Can't Stop" was initially shown in only two theaters, which was already more than 50%. He felt quite good, at least the foundation for success was there. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test
However, Murakami Iori thought he was being sarcastic, glanced at him sideways, and said angrily: "I know very little, I will run around more these two days, you don't have to worry."
Qianhara Rinto smiled and said: "Where did you go? I'm not worried. The progress is pretty good now. Don't be too nervous. You don't have confidence in the quality of the film, right?"
Iori Murakami has read the script and found it very interesting, but now that the finished film has not been released, it is always difficult to feel at ease. But then again, even if the finished film is released, even if the quality is really good, she still cannot feel at ease based on her character. She should be bloated.
swell.
But she couldn't express this to Chihara Rinto, so she could only say: "Of course I have confidence in you, but the more theaters showing it, the better? This is something I should be responsible for, so don't worry about it.
I will try to contact as many theaters as possible, you just need to be responsible for the filming."
Chihara Rinto stopped trying to persuade him. After all, he had known Iori Murakami for a long time and knew Murakami Iori's temperament - it was like this when filming dramas in the past. This white-bone demon usually worked hard to reduce stress.
I think it will fall short of the mark, and now it will be 80% the same if I change the movie. Before the box office is released, it won't be of much use.
He smiled and said: "That's up to you, but remember that this is not our main business, it's just a temporary solution to difficulties, don't tire yourself out."
Iori Murakami was about to say that there was no way she was exhausted, but suddenly she saw her mother standing not far away with her ears stretched out to eavesdrop. She couldn't help but said slightly embarrassed: "Mom, why are you back?"
She was going to use her belongings to shoot a scene today and asked her mother to go out for a while (her father went to work), but she didn't expect her mother to suddenly run back and she had a headache for a while. When Chihara Rinto heard Murakami Iori's words,
He quickly turned around and looked around, and found a woman who was about the same height as Iori Murakami, with a similar face shape and facial features. She was about fifty years old. She had slight crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, but she was well maintained and had a friendly smile. She quickly bowed and greeted:
"Hello, aunt, this is the first time we meet. I am Chihara Rinto. I have been thanked for your care many times in the past."
He had a very good impression of Murakami Iori's mother. After all, she used to drink other people's tonic soup. Now that he had finished greetings, he quickly waved to the staff to take the gift, presented it with both hands, and said with a smile: "This time I will give you something."
Sorry for the trouble, please accept this little note."
Murakami Iori’s mother was not too polite, she took it with a smile, looked at Qianhara Rinto up and down, and bowed in return: “Anyway, Teacher Qianhara, I have been taking care of this child Iori for a long time, and I have always wanted to express my gratitude.
However, she still refuses to invite you back for dinner. This child is just too shy. Please continue to tolerate her in the future."
Qianhara Rinto quickly bowed again: "You are too polite, Mrs. Murakami. It is Miss Murakami who has been helping me."
"Teacher Qianyuan has such a good personality..."
"Where, you...you are too generous."
Even though Chihara Rinto is about to wear a pair of pants with Murakami Iori, this is the first time he has met Murakami Iori's family. In order to express respect for his companions, he fell into a series of polite greetings, but Murakami Iori was a little uncomfortable.
Zi Zai quickly grabbed her mother: "Mom, it's working time now. Don't disturb Qianyuan here. Go to the mahjong parlor first!"
Mrs. Murakami refused to leave. She pretended not to hear her daughter's words and smiled kindly at Rinto Chihara: "Teacher Chihara comes here once in a while. Let's have dinner together at noon?"
Qianhara Rinto hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "Isn't this too intrusive?"
"How is that possible?" Mrs. Murakami was very excited, "It's just a common meal, and I'm worried that the reception won't be good enough!"
Iori Murakami quit. She didn't want her mother to talk to Chihara Rinto anymore, so she quickly said: "No, mom, Chihara will be in charge of filming and will be with the crew at noon, so don't cause any trouble for him.
.”
"What about dinner?" Mrs. Murakami seemed determined to have a meal with Chihara Rinto and was very reluctant to part with her. "There should be time for dinner, right?"
Murakami Iori began to use the drag-and-drop strategy: "Qianhara is very busy recently, let's wait until the movie is finished, okay?"
"No matter how busy you are, you still need to eat!" Mrs. Murakami still had a smile on her face: "Iori, it's rare for Teacher Qianhara to come here. If we don't entertain him, others will say we are rude, and that's not okay."
Murakami Iori has nothing to say. She has great power in the workplace. She controls hundreds of people. She speaks and acts, and she does what she says. Sometimes even Chihara Rinto has to listen to her, but it is of no use to guard her mother.
Now - even if she becomes the director of the Kanto United Station, she is still a child in front of her mother and does not have much say.
Chihara Rinto didn't mind having a meal with Murakami Iori's family. Seeing that Murakami Iori's objections were ineffective, he quickly said: "Let's just have dinner tonight. I'll treat you."
"How is that possible? We're all home. Let's eat at home."
Qianhara Rinto was just polite and it didn't matter where he ate. He declined a few words and said with a smile: "Then I'll trouble you."
Mrs. Murakami was satisfied. She looked at how the camera seats were being arranged in the living room and the actors were really busy with their lines. She stopped disturbing her and asked Chihara Rinto about her taste. She went out again with a smile on her face, as if she was ready to go shopping.
, and Iori Murakami followed him out, probably wanting to protest, but it seemed to be of no use, and he came back with a depressed expression in the blink of an eye.
Qianhara Rinto looked at her expression and said with a smile: "It's just a meal together, why do you care so much? With our friendship, I should have come to visit you a long time ago. It's normal to meet your family, right?"
Iori Murakami didn't hear it and didn't bother to look at him, as if she was blaming him for agreeing - you kid can't stand and talk without pain, and it's not you who is being urged to get married!
If my mother talks nonsense in front of you, it will be so embarrassing for us to meet in the future!
…………
The one-day shooting went smoothly. "The Camera Can't Stop" cannot be called a difficult film, even though Chihara Rinto made a lot of fine-tuning in the script to make the film's emotional atmosphere richer and added a lot of father-daughter conflict scenes.
So that the main part of the film can be sublimated to some extent and get rid of the structure of a simple creative reversal film, but it is still not difficult to shoot. Even with the ability of his elite team, it can be said that it is commonplace to deal with this kind of film.
Definitely more than enough.
The work ended on time in the evening, and the crew members returned to the station one after another. Murakami Iori wanted to keep a few people to have dinner with her, but she was afraid of embarrassing herself in front of more people, and her prestige as a big producer would be set back three years overnight, so she could only feel depressed.
Only Chihara Rinto was left.
Mrs. Murakami was already busy in the kitchen, and Iori Murakami also changed into home clothes to help. However, when she changed into normal clothes, she suddenly looked much thinner and smaller, as if she was a different person, which made Chihara Rinto endure
I couldn't help but take a few more glances - Murakami Iori usually looks weird, but now he looks like a normal person, which is more in line with his aesthetics.
The Murakami mother and daughter started working together, and the food was quickly served on the table. Although it was indeed just a common meal, it could be seen that the preparation was very careful. Chihara Rinto sat there and waited, watching Murakami Iori wearing an apron as she brought the food.
I couldn't help but laugh in a low voice: "I didn't expect you could cook."
Iori Murakami rolled her eyes at him, and Mrs. Murakami who was following behind heard it and laughed directly: "She doesn't know how to cook. She only knows how to make miso soup. She learned it in school. Normally, she only cooks miso soup at home.
Will eat."
Murakami Iori said angrily: "Mom!"
This is so unlucky, he and I are work partners, what should I do if he knows these private things and disrespects me later? I am a smart and capable strong woman in the workplace!
Mrs. Murakami didn't care, her smile became even brighter, and she said perfunctorily: "Okay, okay, don't be angry, let's stop talking and get ready to eat!"
Chihara Rinto liked the character of Murakami Iori's mother. She felt that she was very cheerful and friendly, so she quickly helped arrange the dishes, but she asked, "Don't you wait until uncle comes back?"
Mrs. Murakami smiled and explained: "He works two shifts and has to work sixteen hours today. It is not convenient to ask for leave midway, so I didn't ask him to come back. Please don't mind."
Iori Murakami added: "My father is the production supervisor of a food factory. He is responsible for the handover between two shifts every once in a while. He needs to work two shifts in a row, but he can rest tomorrow."
"So that's it." Chihara Rinto really didn't expect that Murakami Iori's father was the person in charge of the factory workshop, so he couldn't help but follow this topic and ask about the current situation of the factory, "The economic situation is not very good recently, and the company he works for is not doing well.
Is it still normal?”
Murakami Iori said: "Fortunately, they have encountered certain difficulties, but their main business is instant ramen and they can still sustain it."
It turned out to be a manufacturer of instant noodles!
Chihara Rinto understands that food such as beef cannot be sold recently, but instant noodles have not been affected much. No wonder we can maintain production in two shifts. But it doesn’t matter. In fact, with Murakami Iori’s income, he can support himself
The family is more than enough, even if her father loses his job, it won't be a big problem.
Mrs. Murakami smiled and said: "Okay, let's not talk about that old man. Teacher Qianyuan, please forgive me for your poor hospitality."
"Why did you bother me?" Qianyuan Rinto lowered his head and clapped his hands together, and said with a smile: "I'm starting."
They used chopsticks together and chatted while eating. Mrs. Murakami asked about the situation of the TV station and her daughter's working environment, while Iori Murakami was eating in silence, fearing that her mother would say, "This child refuses to go to the social gathering for any reason."
She is already twenty-eight or nineteen years old, and she is not getting married now." She was even more afraid that her mother would suddenly say, "What do you think of my daughter?" - If she really said this, she would probably have to marry her tonight.
Hanged.
She was always ready to stop her mother's nonsense, but after waiting for a long time, she found that her mother was very normal today. She didn't say anything strange. She was just chatting with Qianhara Rinto. At most, she talked about interesting things from her childhood, and she was very funny.
It's strange that she has loved watching TV since she was a child and has been watching it all day long, but in the end she has not become myopic - Murakami Iori can accept these things and feels that they are harmless and have nothing to do with it.
Qianhara Rinto was also very supportive. He laughed when he needed to and praised when he needed to. When he encountered certain questions, he picked up good answers and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief.
He was also afraid that Murakami Iori's mother was out of tune and kept complaining that her daughter was addicted to work and was about to become an older single. If this topic really came up, he was not sure how to deal with it - he and Murakami Iori
Murakami Iori is a friend + partner. There is no personal relationship between men and women. Murakami Iori wants to pursue personal happiness. Of course, he has no reason to stop him. But last time Murakami Iori collapsed from exhaustion and rested for a month, he was almost overwhelmed by chores.
If she got married and retired, it would be difficult for him to accept it.
Fortunately, I didn't mention it. I felt that it was just to entertain my daughter's colleagues and enhance the relationship between the two families, so it didn't matter.
He was relieved, his smile gradually became sincere, and his tone became lighter, but as they chatted, Mrs. Murakami tested the temperature of the soup and casually ordered to Iori Murakami: "Iori, go and heat up the soup.
"
Chihara Rinto thought it was nothing, and the soup was not too cold, but Murakami Iori was obedient and got up to go to the kitchen. As soon as Murakami Iori left the living room, Mrs. Murakami's expression instantly became more solemn, and she smiled and said: "Qianhara
Teacher, actually I was not saying polite words before, I really wanted to treat you seriously once and express my feelings properly."
Qianhara Rinto was slightly startled and said quickly: "You are so polite. Miss Murakami helped me more."
"It's not because of this." Mrs. Murakami shook her head and said softly: "When she first started working, she was under a lot of pressure because she was a woman. Even though she was admitted to Tokyo Broadcasting System with the best grades, her promotion has been slow.
, any opportunity requires several times the energy and time of others to fight for. During that time, she was very unhappy until she met you. She said at home that she would definitely succeed this time, and she praised you for a long time, saying that you are
The most talented person she's ever met."
"Well...it was Miss Murakami who gave me the opportunity. I always remember..."
"Not only this, but Iori was treated unfairly on the TV station at that time. Only Teacher Qianhara stood up and spoke justice for her, right?" Mrs. Murakami looked very pleased: "She came back and locked herself in the room crying for a long time, her face
I was swollen from crying, and I vowed to repay you."
Chihara Rinto didn't know how to answer the question, and looked towards the kitchen with a guilty conscience, feeling that this statement would be heard by Murakami Iori, and the effect would be equivalent to a public execution.
Mrs. Murakami didn't care much whether her daughter would hear it, and continued: "After that, you changed jobs together, but she still left early and came home late. She couldn't open her eyes when she got home every day. She fell asleep in the bathroom many times. I was very worried.
I have been urging her to get married early, but she has always refused. This child has been very strong since she was a child. She is afraid that others will look down on her. She has always wanted to climb to a high position and prove herself, but it is not that easy in society..."
"But you are slowly making better and better results, and she is getting happier and happier. Even if she is very tired, she smiles more and more at home. Her father is the child... Originally he was opposed to Iori joining the TV station.
I think she has a better choice, and now I am starting to be proud of her. I laugh and talk about the TV series she participated in all day long, and try to watch them all."
After a pause, Mrs. Murakami sighed: "She is so happy only because of Teacher Qianyuan. Really..."
Qianhara Rinto reacted and said quickly: "You can't say that. You may not understand our industry. If I am the only one, I can't do anything. Miss Murakami has performed her duties perfectly. As long as any work is given to her, she will do it."
She will try her best to complete it, no one can compare to her."
He was telling the truth. In the workplace, even in this team, the person he trusted the most was Iori Murakami, and no one could replace her.
Mrs. Murakami was startled for a moment, took a few steps back, bowed her head solemnly and saluted: "Anyway, I really thank you. I hope she can continue to be so happy, and please continue to support her in the future, please."
It turns out that he loves his daughter. Chihara Rinto completely understood it, but he was also a little embarrassed at the same time. On the TV station, he really piled all the chores on Murakami Iori's head, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he treated her like a cow and a horse.
It only took the past two or three months for her to gain some weight.
Although he was ashamed, he returned the gift solemnly and said seriously: "I understand what you mean. Miss Murakami is very good and will not lose to anyone. We will definitely continue this way. You don't have to worry at all!"
…………
The meal was enjoyed by both the guests and the host. At about eight o'clock in the evening, Chihara Rinto wanted to go back to the crew station to see the shooting results. Murakami Iori followed him and also drove him there.
On the way, Murakami Iori kept looking at him and couldn't help but ask: "I wasn't in the living room at that time. Did my mother say anything strange to you?"
Qianyuan Rinto was looking at the night scene in a trance, and said casually: "You didn't say anything, what's wrong?"
"When I came back, I felt like there was something wrong with the atmosphere." Murakami Iori was also unsure and asked hesitantly: "Did you really say nothing?"
"No, it's just that your mother cares about you."
Murakami Iori's expression softened and she nodded: "She loves me very much, but some of her ideas are too old-fashioned. It seems that a woman can only be happy if she gets married."
"Maybe this is the generation gap!" Qianhara Rinto replied with a smile, then continued to look at the light of the street lamp in the distance, and said with a smile: "By the way, I want to tell you something."
"What's up?"
Chihara Rinto did not look at his good friend Murakami Iori. He still looked at the street and said softly: "I never planned to leave Kanto United. We will ascend to a high position here and build the number one TV station in Japan to achieve common goals."
Our dream is to let the whole world know our name in the future!”
After finishing the meal, he suddenly discovered that he not only had his own dream, but also Murakami Iori's dream, which was also related to her future and her smile - he hoped to become the top of the production industry, Murakami
Iori's situation is smaller, even if he reaches a high position, it's just the same, almost the same.
He hoped that Murakami Iori's wish could come true, just as he hoped that his own wish could come true. After all, over the past three years, their personal relationship had been extraordinary. Murakami Iori's mother's love for her daughter also moved him very much. As she spoke,
The tone is very solemn, like a promise - one day, you will realize your dream and ascend to a high position on the TV station, with such high authority that no one, not even a woman, dares to look down on you.
This was really him planning the future, but Murakami Iori tilted his head and looked at him, then turned back to look at the road, and said casually: "You didn't drink tonight, why did you suddenly become drunk? We are sitting on the bench now, what else?"
It would be nice to get to a high position and not torture the bridge to death! I think you just have enough to eat and have nothing to do. If you have time, why not think about how to make better movies. If you don't make money, your work will be in vain.
.I’ve been almost worried to death these days, and you still have the time to talk nonsense here!”
Qianhara Rinto was in a state of excitement and was speechless. He could only continue to look at the street scene outside the window. He thought that he was full, but felt very unhappy in his heart - I am announcing our common vision very seriously. You should be excited all over.
It's okay to tremble. What kind of attitude is this? You've ruined the whole atmosphere!
but……
You are right. You have to walk step by step and solve the current difficulties first. But dreams will eventually come true one day. This is definitely right!
