"Dear mystery lovers, Keita Sima's mystery drama is about to start filming. Are you looking forward to this work?"

"Not at all." A high praise member replied, "Does he plan to write a mystery drama and the book "Genius Detective Mitarashi Kiyoshi" at the same time? It is impossible to create a good work with such half-heartedness."

"I think Sima Keita is draining the readers' love for him."

"Creating two works at the same time? Can he really be busy?"

"Let me tell you a shocking news, not two works, but three. The current late-night drama "The Lonely Gourmet" on Fukuyama Channel every Saturday at 11 o'clock is also his work."

"Oh my god, I just realized now that this food drama I watch every week is actually written by Keita Sima?"

"Nonsense, the screenwriter of that drama is clearly named Kei Fujiwara. We are discussing Keita Shima, what does Kei Fujiwara have to do with him?"

"Keita Shima is the pen name of Kei Fujiwara."

""The Lonely Gourmet" is actually his work? Every time I watch it, I can't help but go for a midnight snack."

"Mystery works are no different than other works and require careful thinking and design. It is difficult to concentrate on creating three works at the same time. To be honest, I am not optimistic about the future of this show."

"Sima Keita is not a pure mystery author, because he has also written excellent pure love dramas such as "The Long Vacation". I have to admit that he is a very talented person. Someone like him who is proficient in various types of works

Creators are very rare in the whole of Japan. But because of this, it is impossible for him to focus on the creation of reasoning. Without concentration, he will not be able to achieve the highest achievements. His talent will become his curse.

"

"I also think his new drama will fail, and "Genius Detective Mitarashi Kiyo" will gradually go downhill."

Nanako Togada felt a little sad when she saw the negative comments about Keita Shima on the Internet. She tried to speak for Keita Shima on the forum and expressed her confidence in Keita Shiba, but her comments were quickly drowned out.

Minami Yukie was happily browsing the web and surfing passionately. This reasoning forum has never been as pleasing to the eye as it is today.

Although the response to his works is also very average, as long as Sima Guitai bucks the trend, it is more sincerely joyful than him making money himself.

So he wrote a new book review to criticize the new work "Genius Detective Mitarashi Kyō".

In fact, "Genius Detective Mitaraike" has only been serialized for three chapters. Regardless of the level of these three chapters, most critics will not make such a hasty conclusion to avoid a reversal in the reputation of subsequent works.

But Minami Yukie couldn't wait any longer. Readers felt that Sima Keita's level had dropped, and they all stepped on his head ten thousand times, and he couldn't wait to step on the ten thousand and one foot.

"Unfortunately, [genius writer] Keita Sima, who has been praised to the heavens by the media, awards, and book critics, has finally exposed his true side. He is not a genius, he is just a lucky guy who accidentally won the lottery."

""Genius Detective Mitarashi Kyoshi" is an extremely mediocre work, which reflects Keita Shiba's true level, and I also have no expectations for his new drama."

"Before, Sima Keitai was in a writing workshop, talking eloquently as a teacher, teaching ignorant beginners how to devise tricks. But when it was his turn to devise tricks himself, how did he perform? Haha, I

I won’t comment too much, readers can make their own decisions. I can only say that most people in the world are unable to integrate knowledge and action. There is a huge gap between [knowing] and [executing].”

After writing the fierce commentary, Minakami Yukie lit a cigarette with satisfaction, held it in his mouth and took a long puff.

…

The actors who received the invitation to audition came to Fukuyama Stage and conducted trial filming one after another.

These people are not comparable to those young idols. Most of them have appeared in Dahe Opera or won Academy Awards. After being immersed in the entertainment industry for many years, they already have a faint aura of artists and cannot be treated simply.

Although they have high status, these senior actors are

Kei Fujiwara, a young screenwriter, showed great respect in front of him. After all, he is a screenwriter who has just emerged from the spring season and won the top spot. He is not an ordinary person.

The content of the audition was very simple, mainly asking the actor to read a monologue by Rensaburo Furahata.

To be honest, if we just evaluate them on the level of acting, everyone has a pretty good level.

After all, all of them are in their forties and still working hard in the entertainment industry, so their acting skills will not be bad, so Kei Fujiwara does not need to worry that their acting skills will be substandard. The only thing that needs to be considered is the issue of suitability.

To be honest, Tamura Masakazu's shadow has been lingering in Fujiwara Kei's mind. The creator of the original "Furuhata Jinsaburo" used Tamura Masakazu as the prototype when he created the script, so the actor and the role are highly suitable.

Therefore, Fujiwara Kei could only try his best to find actors with a similar style to Wada Muramasa. And Mayaru Teruo, who was most favored by the main creators, has an appearance and temperament that is as high as 70% similar to Wada Muramasa Kazu.

After the audition, Kei Fujiwara and Yui Mizuhara watched the replays of all the audition videos repeatedly and felt that among everyone, Teruo Maya was the one who best suited the temperament of the character.

After some discussion, the creators finally decided to choose Teruo Maya as the main protagonist. Yui Mizuhara called Teruo Maya's agent and the two parties made an appointment to discuss remuneration and further cooperation.

The next day, because he had to create three works at the same time, Kei Fujiwara sat alone in the office and wrote hard. Yui Mizuhara and Hideaki Shibasaki went to the office to discuss with Teruo Maya's agent.

Kei Fujiwara was writing alone in his office, from the morning until about three o'clock in the afternoon, without moving his buttocks.

A cool breeze suddenly blew in from the window. Goose bumps appeared on Kei Fujiwara's back. Kei Fujiwara stood up and turned to look out the window. The weather suddenly turned cloudy and large dark clouds appeared in the sky.

A commercial car drove past downstairs, and Fujiwara Kei recognized it as Shibazaki Hideaki's car.

It seems the deal has been settled...

Fujiwara Kei made himself a cup of tea and drank while waiting for the two of them to go upstairs.

However, when the two of them appeared in front of him, Kei Fujiwara looked at them with unfriendly expressions. He was silent for a few seconds and said, "What? The conversation didn't go well."

"We haven't reached an agreement on the remuneration," Yui Mizuhara said, "It's over budget."

"How many?"

"The other party asked for a salary of five million yen per episode." Shibazaki Hideaki said, "There is also a copyright share."

Fujiwara Kei frowned and said nothing.

Five million yen per episode, and there are twelve levels in one season, which means that the basic salary for the entire drama alone is 70 million yen. Including the copyright share, Maya Teruo wants to take hundreds of millions from this drama.

Yen.

Is this too much to ask? By Fujiwara Kei’s standards, it’s okay. After all, he comes from a place where well-known artists are paid very well. Five million yen is equivalent to about two to three hundred thousand yuan. For a star-level artist in China

Said it was a good price.

But in Japan, five million yen is already close to the maximum salary.

The low remuneration for artists in Japan is due to the system. The Japanese broadcasting industry adopts a producer-centered system. There are agreements between the five major private broadcasters and major production companies. Generally speaking, artists will not be given too high remuneration, so as to avoid high remuneration becoming a trend.

Big unnecessary production costs.

In fact, actors' salaries in China were not that exaggerated in the first place. The main reason for the skyrocketing of artist's salaries was 10 years later, when the war of video websites led by Aikutengyusanjia started. In order to compete for members, they purchased movies starring popular idols at high prices.

Film remuneration has risen to an unprecedented level.

The remuneration of five million yen, plus the copyright share. To be honest, it has exceeded the budget for artist remuneration given by the TV station, and the station may not agree. Moreover, there will be more than one "Furuhata Rensaburo", the first one

The asking price is so high, wouldn’t the appetite get bigger as time goes by?

And if we agree to Maya Teruo's request, will it cause dissatisfaction from the other five major broadcasters and production companies? Will they feel that they are a rule-breaker?

If the world line changes, what if the Japanese broadcasting industry also develops a bad trend of artists' remuneration overwhelming the production team?

.He might be crucified on the pillar of shame...

Fujiwara Kei couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
