Chapter 23 Interview

After some formal communication, store owner Keita Kurita agreed with Nakamura Masahiro’s idea of ​​seeking film sponsorship. Subsequently, the two signed a more formal sponsorship agreement and agreed on the sponsorship amount at 200,000 yen.<

/p>

Well, although this amount is not too much, for Nakamura Masahiro, this sponsorship amount is actually not too small. He has also visited a lot of businesses recently, but after spending so much money, he actually has nothing

I have attracted too many sponsorships, and the amount of sponsorship usually only amounts to tens of thousands of yen. The 200,000 yen from the dessert shop has already set a new sponsorship record.

"Thank you very much for your sponsorship. When the movie is released, I will definitely express my gratitude to you at the end of the film."

Putting away the slightly thick stack of Fukuzawa Yukichi on the table, Nakamura Masahiro carefully put them into his briefcase, and then expressed his gratitude to the store owner Kurita Keita: "In addition, the crew

When the time comes to come over and shoot, I’ll be sorry for you.”

Not only did he get movie sponsorship from the dessert shop, Masahiro Nakamura also got filming support from here: There is a small plot in the movie that needs to be shot in the dessert shop. If you come to shoot, the dessert shop will give you full support.

"For food, it is also a very happy thing to see your own shop featured in a movie."

Store owner Kurita Keita was obviously in a good mood, with a happy expression on his face. He said in a cheerful tone: "Besides, it would be nice to support Nakamura-san. If the movie can be a big success, then we in Kanazawa will have it."

It’s a big star. There should be many people coming to travel in the future, and it can also let more people know about this city."

Having said this, he blinked at Nakamura Masahiro again, and the expression on his face turned into a joke: "Actually, I have heard Nakamura-san's name before, and you are very famous recently."

"Eh? What do you mean?"

Nakamura Masahiro looked at the other person in bewilderment, and couldn't help but have endless doubts in his heart. He was just an ordinary ordinary person. Although he was relatively handsome, he was neither a star nor had he done anything extraordinary.

How come things are so famous?

"You must have visited many businesses before, right?"

Store owner Kurita Keita did not answer Nakamura Masahiro's question directly, but instead asked an unrelated question: "It's the stores nearby."

"Yes, I did go to some stores."

It was a fact, and it was not something that needed to be kept secret, so Masahiro Nakamura had no intention of hiding it, and answered frankly: "It's mainly some stores that need to be photographed, and I've basically been to them."

"That's right, because everyone is spreading news about you..."

The other party smiled and did not say it directly, but he also revealed the reason from the side. After all, they are all gathered in this area. Although they are not necessarily familiar with each other, they all know each other more or less, and they know each other.

It's just a piece of gossip, that's totally normal.

With a forced smile on his face, Nakamura Masahiro still felt a little bit ashamed. However, he didn't particularly care in his heart. After all, it was to attract movie sponsorship. In the same way, it was also to make money.

, not shabby.

In Nakamura Masahiro's current state, it's already good to be able to get movie sponsors. Why are you so picky? The environment in Japan is not as good as in China. There are so many silly and sweet coal bosses who can fool them and are willing to pay for them with real money.

Spend a lot of money.

If he were still involved in the film and television industry in China, Nakamura Masahiro would really like to try to fool the legendary Coal Boss. After all, when he was working with the famous director, the Coal Boss had already faded in the industry, leaving only Ling Duoduo.

A legend that people miss. Well, based on the domestic timeline, it seems that the coal boss will soon begin to ebb.

The two parties chatted for a while, and then Nakamura Masahiro said goodbye and left. As he walked on the way home, Nakamura Masahiro began to make calculations in his mind. He got a sponsorship of 200,000 yen from the dessert shop, plus sponsorships from other stores, about 200,000 yen in sponsorship.

300,000 yen, plus the original 1.5 million yen, the total funds have reached about 2 million yen.

Although the money is still not much, it is enough to shoot "A Long Day", and the budget will no longer be so tight. However, in line with the mentality of more, the better, Nakamura Masahiro also wants to revitalize the culture of Ishikawa Prefecture

Get some sponsorship from the fund.

With the development of Japan's cultural industry, local governments are also formulating cultural revitalization regulations one after another, and Ishikawa Prefecture is no exception. According to relevant news reports, Ishikawa Prefecture plans to raise a cultural revitalization fund of up to 10 billion, so it

Targeted by Masahiro Nakamura who was short of money.

However, Masahiro Nakamura himself can't handle the Cultural Promotion Fund. He plans to rope in his father Tomimasa Nakamura to serve as the producer of the film. Tomimasa Nakamura will step in to solicit sponsorship and coordinate the review of the film. With Nakamura Tomimasa's connections in the media industry

It should not be difficult to establish a relationship with others.

"Moses, Moses, what's the matter?"

While he was thinking wildly, his cell phone suddenly rang. Masahiro Nakamura took out his cell phone and looked at the caller ID. He found that the caller was Shoji Ojo, so he answered the call. If nothing was wrong, he would not call Masahiro Nakamura.

Came here.

"Nakamura-san, there are several people who are here to apply, and I need you to interview them."

Shoji Ojo on the other end of the phone didn't waste any time and explained the reason directly. He was several years older than Masahiro Nakamura. He was an out-of-school college student. It was said that something happened at home and he could not continue his studies, so he was recruited by Masahiro Nakamura.

Came here as a temporary assistant.

"Didn't I mention the recruitment conditions to you? If the conditions are met, you can just stay."

The tone was slightly doubtful, and Nakamura Masahiro felt a little strange. According to his previous instructions to Ojo Shoji, for ordinary recruits, Ojo Shoji can make the decision to stay. After all, so far, only a few people have been recruited, and there are many gaps in the team.

Big.

"But, they are here to apply for the positions of assistant director and cinematographer. I don't understand this."

Faced with Nakamura Masahiro's question, Ojo Shoji's tone of reply was very aggrieved. Although Nakamura Masahiro gave him a certain amount of authority to make decisions, when it came to these more high-end positions, he didn't understand these things, so naturally he didn't dare to take it upon himself to do so.

It’s up to you.

"Okay, then ask them to wait for me and I'll come back as soon as possible."

After giving the simple instructions, Nakamura Masahiro hung up the phone and rushed towards the temporarily rented studio. It was indeed a bit too difficult for Oshiro Shoji to interview candidates for the positions of assistant director and cinematographer.

To be honest, although these relatively high-end positions were mentioned in the recruitment information post, Nakamura Masahiro actually did not have high expectations in his heart. The reason is also very simple. He is just a grassroots team here, and he cannot provide relatively high remuneration.

It is also located in a small and remote place, so its appeal is really limited.

Even if you use many words and routines such as dreams, it will only fool the ignorant noobs, and it will have no effect on the more experienced veterans in the industry. Well, I guess those who are a little more rational will also

I will not come to apply.

I didn’t expect that anyone would actually come to apply! In other words, the people who came to apply should be novices, right? Or maybe they are the poor and poor people in the industry? After thinking about it, it seems that there are only these two possibilities.

.

The temporarily rented studio is located in Kanashi Kita 1-chome, not far from the beer and wine shop, in a small alley near Shoeiji Temple. The environment is very remote, and the conditions are quite simple, but the rent here is not affordable, Nakamura Masahiro

After bargaining, we rented it at an extremely low price.

Originally, Masahiro Nakamura thought about arranging the studio at home, but after careful consideration, he chose to rent a place temporarily. After all, the home is not very spacious, and it is not convenient to get in and out. It is easy

Causing trouble to neighbors.

As we walked along the street, the bustling crowd gradually thinned out, and the number of shops on the roadside gradually decreased. After a while, we reached a remote section of the road. We turned around a fork in the road, and not far away, Nakamura Masahiro turned in.

In a secluded alley, you can see Shoji Ojo standing outside the studio from a distance.

"Nakamura-san...."

There was a trace of anxiety on Oshiro Shoji's face. It was not until he saw the returning Nakamura Masahiro that he breathed a sigh of relief. He stepped towards Nakamura Masahiro, and Oshiro Shoji greeted him: "You are finally back."

"How many people are here to apply?"

After asking casually, Nakamura Masahiro handed the briefcase to Ojo Shoji's hand and asked him to help hold it first. Then he continued walking while tidying up his appearance. When he came back just now, he walked in a hurry.

, so there is a little bit of chaos in the clothing.

"There are four people, one is applying for assistant director, one is applying for photographer, and one is applying for leading actor, and the last one is..."

Holding the briefcase in his arms, Oshiro Shoji followed Nakamura Masahiro in small steps, and fluently reported the situation he had grasped. Obviously, he had already had simple exchanges and communication with the applicants.

p>

"What's wrong? Can't remember clearly?"

Nakamura Masahiro didn't pay too much attention to Ojo Shoji's stuck words. After all, people are not repeaters that can record completely and clearly. No matter how good their memory is, some omissions will inevitably occur.

"Uh, I can't remember it for a while..."

Carefully observing Masahiro Nakamura's face, he found that he didn't mean to be angry. Shoji Oshiro replied in a low voice: "How about you ask him later."
