Japanese big things

Chapter 220 Choice

The night is getting darker and darker, and the original bright lights have long been extinguished, leaving only the lonely street lamps still standing at their posts, seeing off one after another pedestrians on their way home.

The customers in the restaurant came and went, and only Nakamura Masahiro and his friends were left at the table. There were only leftovers of the delicious meal, and the table looked quite messy.

"That's it for today. It's getting late. Everyone should go back and rest early."

After getting up to pay the bill, Nakamura Masahiro told everyone: "Be careful on the road."

"Don't worry, it's okay."

"Nakamura-san, there must be no problem."

In response, Masahiro Nakamura led a group of people out of the restaurant. After saying a few more polite words, everyone said goodbye.

Because Yosuke Mukai and Masahiro Nakamura were on the same road, they walked together through the dark streets.

The orange light extended wantonly, hitting Masahiro Nakamura and Yosuke Mukai, making their shadows grow long.

"Nakamura-san, your attitude towards Ueda-san and Okita-san seems to be..."

Before he finished speaking, Mukai Yosuke's meaning had already been expressed. Obviously, although Nakamura Masahiro from the restaurant was as usual, he was still noticed by Mukai Yosuke.

"We are all ordinary friends. It would be nice to have a chance to work together once."

Smiling at Yosuke Mukai, Masahiro Nakamura said calmly: "Mukai-san, are you right?"

"Well...."

Following Nakamura Masahiro step by step, he continued to move forward. Mukai Yosuke looked at Nakamura Masahiro's side face and had already regained his serious indifference.

Although I don’t know what went wrong? Nakamura Masahiro does not intend to continue to cooperate with Okita Eitaro and others, and Mukai Yosuke has no objections.

The interpersonal relationship in the Japanese country is inherently indifferent, and everyone has always taken care of themselves. The relationship between Yosuke Mukai and Shinichiro Ueda is not bad.

"By the way, Nakamura-san..."

A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind. Yosuke Mukai took two quick steps and walked side by side with Masahiro Nakamura: "Can you give me some advice?"

"suggestion?"

Without stopping, Masahiro Nakamura turned his head and glanced at Yosuke Mukai. He didn't know what the other person meant by his words. And what advice could he give Yosuke Mukai?

"For example, how to choose a good role in a movie or TV series..."

Facing Nakamura Masahiro's somewhat puzzled eyes, Mukai Yosuke said calmly: "Should I focus on movies? Or should I lean more towards TV series?"

After winning the Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival, Masahiro Nakamura was certainly the biggest beneficiary, and Yosuke Mukai, who was the lead actor in the movie "One Long Day," also benefited a lot.

Before he returned to Japan, he had received invitations to star in many productions: some from variety shows, some from TV series, and some from film projects.

How should I put it, apart from Masahiro Nakamura, Yosuke Mukai is probably the most popular artist in the Japanese entertainment circle recently, right?

Because of his status as a freelance artist, he has also attracted the enthusiastic pursuit of many agencies, all of whom want to sign Yosuke Mukai.

It's a pity that Mukai Yosuke is not one of those simple young rookies. He has enough life experience and behaves very cautiously when it comes to signing contracts.

The agency must sign. After all, Japan's film and television resources are monopolized by major agencies. Without the support of the agency, few people can survive.

However, the development directions of the firms are also different: some focus on the film field, some focus on TV series, and some stick to variety shows and music groups.

"It depends on you... If you prefer which field, choose that one."

After all, Yosuke Mukai is still a newcomer in the entertainment industry. Even if he has rich life experience, he cannot figure it out in a short time.

In this regard, Masahiro Nakamura was unwilling to intervene. He always felt that Yosuke Mukai had no acting talent and was not suitable for being in the entertainment industry.

The reason why he was able to perform so well in "One Long Day" was not because of his good acting skills, but because of his perfect fit with the character.

To put it another way, Mukai Yosuke and the character are connected. He is not playing that character, but he is that character.

If the role is changed, the compatibility is no longer so high, and the image and character design are not very close, then Yosuke Mukai will be exposed.

"I actually want to develop in the film field..."

With a low tone, Yosuke Mukai stated his thoughts honestly. After a slight pause, he continued to add.

"But Japan doesn't have many film resources, especially high-quality projects. I feel like it's hard to get them."

Nakamura Masahiro remained silent, but secretly praised Mukai Yosuke's realization. Obviously, Mukai Yosuke was not dazzled by the success of "One Long Day".

There are not many film resources in Japan. Those big-name actors have a near monopoly on high-quality film projects, and very little can be released.

Compared with those senior actors, Yosuke Mukai may be one step ahead with his current popularity, but his hard power is really not enough.

"well...."

A long sigh sounded in the quiet street. It seemed that he didn't say anything, but it revealed Yosuke Mukai's full of sadness and helplessness.

"Mukai-san, my personal suggestion is that if you really want to develop in the entertainment industry, you should hone your acting skills in TV dramas first..."

At the separate intersection, Nakamura Masahiro still gave his advice. In the field of acting, talent is important, but acquired hard work should not be ignored.

If Yosuke Mukai can hone his acting skills well, he may really have a chance to gain a foothold in the highly competitive Japanese entertainment industry.

"Nakamura-san, I will think about it carefully."

Yosuke Mukai did not agree directly, but he had a weighing thought in his heart. He watched Masahiro Nakamura's figure gradually go away until he completely disappeared into the dark night.

Under the arrangement of Toho, Nakamura Masahiro appeared on several variety shows and music groups. Taking advantage of the already high attention and exposure, he launched a large wave of publicity.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Affected by this, the movie box office of "One Long Day", which was originally showing signs of decline, has miraculously stabilized, and there is a slight trend of reversal.

Unfortunately, "A Long Day" is a literary film with a naturally weak box office. With the strong release of anime movies, it can only accept its fate and give up part of the screen and market.

Many matters came to an end, and under the repeated urging of TBS TV station, Nakamura Masahiro embarked on a trip to Hokkaido.

However, he did not go directly to Hokkaido, but took a detour to Miyagi Prefecture to visit Senior Koji Wakamatsu.

It was with his help that "A Long Day" was successfully selected for the Berlin Film Festival and won the Silver Bear Award.

"Why do you have time to come to my place? You must be very busy during this period."

With a smile on his face, he took the souvenir from Masahiro Nakamura's hand, and Koji Wakamatsu turned sideways and let him into the house.

"No matter how busy you are, you can still find some time."

Nakamura Masahiro smiled slightly, followed Wakamatsu Koji into the house, then turned around and quietly closed the door.

"I don't value politeness and etiquette. As long as you make good movies and make more outstanding movies, I'll be satisfied."

The two of them sat cross-legged opposite each other. While pouring tea for Nakamura Masahiro, Wakamatsu Koji said in a serious voice: "You are very talented, so don't waste it easily."

"Hey, I got it."

Nakamura Masahiro straightened up, put his hands on his knees, and had a solemn expression on his face. He responded to Wakamatsu Koji very seriously.

"However, don't be too proud. Before making a movie, you must have your own considerations..."

Wakamatsu Koji was very satisfied with Nakamura Masahiro's attitude. He continued to warn: "You must know who your movie audience is, and remember not to make movies for your own entertainment."

Nakamura Masahiro nodded solemnly, he understood what Wakamatsu Kouji meant. You can't be self-satisfied when making a movie. If the investment in the movie is in vain, it will be difficult to have another chance.

Perhaps a successful supervisor can have the opportunity to try and make mistakes, but if a supervisor in the new stage makes a mistake, it will be difficult to turn around in the future.

A long and verbose sermon contains Wakamatsu Takashi's decades of experience in the industry. Although he is not highly educated, he has a thorough understanding of the film industry.

The original intention of making a movie can be a dream, a means, or a joke. But when it comes to reality, it is capital.

It's like working in a company. The boss can draw countless pie, but if the salary is delayed, few people will be polite to him.

The hot sunshine at noon crossed the courtyard, passed through the glass, and swayed into the house. The mottled light smudged the calligraphy and paintings on the wall.

"It's almost time, let's go out for a meal together?"

Looking at the time, it was time for lunch. Wakamatsu Koji extended an invitation to Nakamura Masahiro and said, "You shouldn't be in a hurry to leave, right?"

"No rush, no rush..."

Wakamatsu Koji had already said so, what else could Nakamura Masahiro say? He could only smile and nod, fully agreeing.

After leaving the house, Wakamatsu Kouji drove Nakamura Masahiro to the central city of Miyagi Prefecture. It was a rare opportunity to have a meal with Nakamura Masahiro, and Wakamatsu Kouji was also very happy.

Wakutani Town, where he lives, is located in the northern suburbs of Miyagi Prefecture. Although there are some good restaurants, in terms of dining environment and food taste, they are definitely far inferior to those in urban areas.

"The taste of this restaurant is very good. If I come to the city, I will usually choose this place..."

After parking the car, Wakamatsu Koji and Nakamura Masahiro walked side by side. While walking slowly, Wakamatsu Koji introduced the information about the restaurant to Nakamura Masahiro.
