Chapter 95 At least this moment is particularly beautiful
Chihara Rinto did not interrupt the troupe's rehearsals, but waited until all rehearsals were over before asking Nagano Teppei to invite "Hansawa Naoki" out for a meeting.
It was almost late at night, the valley area was not very commercial, and almost all the cafes were closed. As a result, for a big production with a budget of 300 million yen plus publicity and promotion expenses, the casting process for the leading role was done at a ramen stand.
——They went back to the ramen stall again, but this time Rinto Chihara was treating them.
The name of "Naoki Hansawa" is Nobu Sugano. Unlike on the stage, he looks gentle and elegant off the stage. Perhaps it is because he suffered a big setback when he was young. He looks relatively reserved, quite mature and steady, and Nobu Suganno
Holding his girlfriend's hand, he also secretly looked at the group of people in front of him - a young man in his twenties who looked slightly oppressed, a round-faced girl in her late teens, a... tramp in her forties? This combination
It’s really a bit strange!
Nagano Teppei acted as the middleman, introduced both parties, and arranged for wine and food. Then Chihara Rinto directly handed over the script of "Hanzawa Naoki" and said with a smile: "Sugano-san, I want to ask you to star in this film."
The role of 'Naoki Hansawa' in the drama."
Nobu Sugano remained calm, but his girlfriend Hinako Komori was obviously nervous for a moment. She held her boyfriend's hand and shook it, but immediately let go so that her boyfriend could lower his head and take the script with both hands.
Nobu Suganno said softly, "I'm sorry," and then started reading by the dim light of the ramen stall. Everyone waited patiently. Hinako Komori waited for a while, and found that her boyfriend seemed to be endless. For fear of being rude, she quickly
Asked Chihara Rinto: "Are you the Chihara-sensei who created "The Wonderful Story of the World"?"
Chihara Rinto's eyes turned to Komori Hinako's face and smiled: "Yes."
Although Hinako Komori also graduated from a prestigious school, her communication skills were not very good. She was obviously running out of words to say: "It turns out it's really you! I've watched "Wonderful Story of the World" and it was very exciting. Ashin liked it very much at the time and also said
It would be great if I could participate in it once, but I didn’t expect you to actually find me. This is great... Is it also a unit drama this time?"
She almost lost her voice at the end of the sentence, and she was very nervous when she asked. However, Chihara Rinto had a very upright attitude. He tried his best to hear clearly and said with a smile: "No, it's a ten-episode TV series."
"Then Hansawa Naoki, whom Ashin is going to play, is..."
"The first person in charge of this drama."
Komori Hinako lowered her head suddenly, suddenly had a nasal voice, and repeated: "This is really great." It doesn't matter even if it is a low-cost night drama, the main thing is that her boyfriend got a second chance!
Nobu Sugano reached out and shook his girlfriend's hand, then patted it gently to indicate not to do this - Hinako Komori always believed that it was her fault that her boyfriend's career suffered a major setback - and then asked Rinto Chihara seriously: "Teacher Chihara
, I have been boycotted by the audience, are you aware of this?"
This matter is still very important. Japanese society has relatively high moral requirements for entertainers. Actors with bad records often become ratings poison, even the main creative staff. For example, if Rinto Chihara creates a seduction
If there is a big scandal like a married woman, if he doesn't start a new drama, the audience will naturally be reduced by half.
Hearing what her boyfriend said, Komori Hinako was startled. She immediately raised her head and explained hurriedly: "That was six years ago. At that time..."
Chihara Rinto stretched out his hand to stop Hinako Komori's words and said with a smile: "I know that Nagano-senpai has told me, but I think it doesn't matter. We can find ways to eliminate the impact later. Don't worry about this Kanno-san. I have considered everything.
"
He must have inquired about this kind of thing in detail. In fact, it was nothing. It was just that Nobu Sugano drank some wine and had a fight with someone. But unfortunately, a tabloid reporter was present and took pictures directly, and then he was regarded as an unscrupulous artist.
It's a typical example - it's not a big deal, it's only been popular for less than a week, but for a young actor, the sequelae are huge.
Chihara Rinto felt that the past events were noteworthy, but not important, and asked seriously, "Sugano-san, there is only one question now - after reading the script, are you willing to star in it?"
"I do, the script is very good, I like this role!" Nobu Suganno was not pretentious. After all, this was a great opportunity. He immediately put his hands on his knees and bowed his head deeply in salute. He said gratefully: "Teacher Qianhara, this is a favor I will never forget. Thank you."
Got it!"
This is the second chance for his career. Especially for him, ability is important and opportunity is equally important. Someone must put him in the bag so that he can show his sharp side and shine through.
.
Now Qianhara Rinto has put him in his pocket and given him the opportunity to display his talents. He is really grateful. Qianhara Rinto is completely relieved and the pressure is greatly reduced. He sincerely smiled and said: "Then let's tomorrow...
...No, I should say audition today to make this matter completely final."
He has already appointed this person, but he must respect his colleagues in the creative team and still have to get the person back to audition as a formality and cook it for the people. Of course, if someone in the creative team objects, he will try his best to persuade him. If he fails to persuade, he will continue to be dictatorial.
, anyway, the appearance must be faked, otherwise it may reduce everyone’s enthusiasm for work.
And with the agreement of Nobu Sugano, Komori Hinako couldn't help but put her arms around his waist, and directly put her head into his arms, her eyes were red. Kanno's confidence was very calm, and his face was calm, but
I hugged my girlfriend hard, very tightly. She probably had mixed emotions and felt the vagaries of life.
This couple showed affection in public, which was very touching but also very immoral. It caused great discomfort to Shintaro Yasuda, a failure in marriage, while Rinto Chihara looked at the couple in silence - he felt that Nobuya Sugano and Masato Sakai
They are very similar. Not only do they have similar temperaments, but they even have similar life experiences. However, Sakai Masato ended up marrying a beautiful S-class actress. I wonder what will happen to this couple in the future?
But it’s really good to help each other, at least this moment is particularly beautiful!
…………
Because it was too late, transportation was inconvenient, and everyone was in high spirits (except Yasuda), they ended up drinking and chatting at the ramen stand, talking about scripts, industry gossip, and acting skills until dawn, and then Chihara Rinto
Everyone except Nagano Teppei packed it up and shipped it back to Kanto United TV Station.
Shintaro Yasuda will not mention it. This is a private employee hired by Rinto Chihara. He just gave him a lot of newspapers. For the time being, his job is to systematically organize all aspects of financial information for Rinto Chihara so that he can directly do it when he has money.
To invest and make money, the people on the creative team looked at Nobu Suganno and were speechless.
The crew chief and chief screenwriter ignored so many famous and famous actors, and finally picked out this...an unknown stage actor?
Chihara Rinto ignored this and let Kanno Shinobi show off his strength. He worked hard to convince everyone during the audition process, and finally decided on the protagonist of "Hansawa Naoki", and then came the matter of Murakami Iori - Chihara
Rinto was worried that there would be problems with Nobu Sugano's agency and that his plans would be ruined, so he asked Iori Murakami to be careful and get the signing done as soon as possible.
Iori Murakami naturally obliged, and after asking, she found out that it was a small entertainment agency. In addition, Nobu Sugano had a strong intention to star, so he easily dealt with them all morning and directly gave them a bargain price - the agency.
I didn’t understand the situation, but it was always good to sell the “unsalable goods”. On the contrary, I was afraid that Murakami Iori wouldn’t want it anymore, so I almost didn’t resist and just agreed.
The salary for a single episode is 450,000 yen, and there is a 0.3% copyright income share, and all the peripheral rights extended by Nobu Sugano's role as "Naoki Hansawa" belong to the TV station and the creative team, and there is nothing to do with the actor or the agency. Other than that
In addition, there are a lot of other stringent conditions, such as mandatory participation in the second season (if it is filmed), priority naming rights for other dramas, etc. Basically, Sugano has been given the letter and has become the "Queen" of their crew.
actor".
In fact, Murakami Iori originally suggested that Nobu Sugano directly terminate the contract with the agency before the news spread. It would be better to open his own personal agency. However, Nobu Sugano is more affectionate and believes that the agency worked hard when something happened to him.
I helped him deal with it, but later he couldn't find a job, and the brokerage company kept giving him a guaranteed "salary". Even if the money was only enough for one person's food expenses, he still had to work during the day to make ends meet. This was still
It's a big favor, so he can't do that kind of ungrateful thing and won't suddenly terminate the contract now.
Murakami Iori appreciated this, so the matter was settled, but the casting work was not over yet. There were 78 supporting actors of various types in "Hansawa Naoki". Currently, only the protagonist has been selected, and there is still a lot of work to be done.
.
The TV program production team was so busy that no one took care of the day or night. They had casting discussions one after another, auditions after auditions, and face-to-face discussions. It took six days to finalize the cast members.
Some minor supporting roles in the second half of the season can be selected while filming, so there is no need to rush.
During these six days, Chihara Rinto basically couldn't go back to get married. He was either interviewing actors in the production bureau or on the way to find big actors, such as the actor who plays the biggest villain "Yawada Akatsuki" in the play. The conclusion they discussed was:
The veteran actor Teruyuki Kuno was invited to star, but such a veteran actor is not so easy to find, so Chihara Rinto and Murakami Iori brought the script and went directly to the door to discuss it.
Fortunately, this time it went smoothly. After reading the script, Kuno Teruyuki was very interested in the play, and the schedule was just right, so he agreed directly.
Other roles such as the protagonist's wife, contemporaneous friends, important subordinates and other roles have also been filled in one by one. The signing of contracts and the coordination of schedules. In short, everything makes Chihara Rinto very busy, even after ten o'clock in the evening.
We held a meeting to discuss the storyboard script, and it turned out that even Shintaro Yasuda asked Hitomi Konoe to help arrange it, and the plan to go to the restaurant to get to know Neko Hakuba better is still on paper and has made no progress.
The time came quickly, it was late May, and it was getting closer and closer to the expected start date of "Hansawa Naoki". All the preparations were basically in place, and as planned, the production team of "Hansawa Naoki" arrived at the general production meeting before the filming started.
.
This is a general meeting between the creative team and the main actors, and it is also a meeting to set the tone for the filming in front of everyone. After this meeting, filming will begin directly!
