Japanese big things

Chapter 347 Taboo

Time passed slowly, and it was early April before I knew it. As the release time of the movie "Model Student" got closer, the marketing efforts of the movie were also increasing day by day.

With the joint efforts of Toho, Warner, and TBS TV, the popularity of the movie "Model Student" has skyrocketed, and it has quickly become the focus of much attention in the film market.

The movie's promotional video not only occupied the big screens in major commercial centers, but also dominated the prime time slots of major TV stations, making it almost inevitable for the general public to avoid it.

The film team that was promoting the film at the same time was stunned. It was like the waves that were originally floating were suddenly hit by a tsunami. They were wiped out in an instant, with only a little bit left in some corners.

trace.

Especially as TBS television news reports began to focus on cheating in examination rooms involving schools, companies, and governments, the popularity of the movie "Model Student" continued to rise, further squeezing the publicity space for the movie in the same period.

.

Of course, the film teams at the same time were very dissatisfied with this situation of being completely crushed, and everyone was also in a depressed mood. After all, the publicity effect of the film is related to the final box office results.

However, they had no choice but to watch helplessly as the movie "Model Student" became more and more powerful and seized almost all publicity resources and marketing channels.

There is no way, not to mention the TBS TV station hidden behind it, just the Toho Company and Warner Company on the surface are not something that many film teams can compete with.

Although there are several movies that also have Toho's participation and investment, how can the small budget be compared with a blockbuster work like "Model Student"?

Between a low-budget movie and the movie "Model Student", Toho Company undoubtedly chose the movie "Model Student" directed by famous director Masahiro Nakamura.

After all, Masahiro Nakamura is a popular and well-known director nowadays, and he naturally has a large public base, which is much more reliable than small-budget movies.

In addition, his debut film "A Long Day" was a box office hit, which created a lot of revenue for Toho and opened up the overseas film market, so it naturally became more popular.

In the entertainment industry, everyone believes that successful people will continue to be successful. Maybe this idea is a bit too superstitious, but it is true. Successful people are always more reliable than those who have not proven themselves.

"Director Nakamura, please go this way..."

After completing the filming of Fuji TV's variety show, Nakamura Masahiro rushed to the studio of TV Asahi's "Tetsuko Nobuya" without stopping.

As soon as we arrived at the entrance of TV Asahi, the staff who had been waiting for a long time hurriedly greeted Nakamura Masahiro. After greeting him respectfully, he quickly led the way to Nakamura Masahiro.

"Trouble..."

Nakamura Masahiro, who was following the other party, kept walking and expressed his gratitude politely, which seemed to be an elegant gesture.

"No trouble, no trouble..."

Seeing that the famous supervisor Masahiro Nakamura was so friendly, the staff were immediately flattered and waved their hands cautiously.

For those who work in the entertainment industry, being domineering is the most common situation. It is somewhat uncomfortable to suddenly meet an extremely friendly person in power like Nakamura Masahiro.

You know, not to mention those seniors with seniority, even newcomers who are just starting out will perform bossy performances as long as they have qualifications, popularity or background to rely on.

But Nakamura Masahiro doesn't have that kind of bad habit. He is like a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry that is shrouded in unhealthy trends. Even if he cleans up Shimada Sensuke's reputation, there are no rumors of bullying.

However, since the lower-level staff have not had much contact with Nakamura Masahiro, they will inevitably remain cautious as before.

After all, everyone in the entertainment industry is a master of acting. They may appear to be gentle gentlemen on the surface, but who knows if they look like rotten people in private?

After walking through the long corridor and politely greeting the industry insiders he met, Nakamura Masahiro quickly arrived at the studio of "Tetsuko Nobuya".

At this time, the crew members were running back and forth, checking the recording equipment of the program, confirming the layout of the props, or verifying the shooting process. The entire scene seemed to be a busy scene.

Upon hearing the arrival of well-known supervisor Masahiro Nakamura, the on-site supervisor of the film crew quickly ran over and greeted Nakamura Masahiro enthusiastically.

He has an artistically messy hairstyle, a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and a paunchy look that is full of greasiness.

Well, how should I put it, the other person looks like Yasushi Akimoto, and his roundness is even a bit greasier than Yasushi Akimoto's.

"If there are any taboo topics, Nakamura-san can bring them up and we will skip them during the conversation."

Masahiro Nakamura is no ordinary supervisor. Not to mention the well-established relationship between Toho and Warner, the Dentsu background behind him is enough to attract attention.

In today's Japanese entertainment industry, as long as Nakamura Masahiro doesn't have conflicts with those senior seniors, he can basically walk away.

Although the on-site supervisor has quite a lot of qualifications, he cannot compare with the aura of a Denryon like Nakamura Masahiro, so he naturally keeps his profile very low.

"Well...."

After pondering for a moment, Nakamura Masahiro felt that there seemed to be no taboo topics, so he answered readily.

"There are no taboos, just follow the normal flow of conversation."

"Nakamura-san, are you sure?"

The on-site supervisor was a little worried and confirmed again. There were too many scandals in the entertainment industry, and no one could guarantee that the artists in the industry would not be infected.

No matter how good Nakamura Masahiro's reputation is, who knows if he has any special hobbies or unsavory things in private?

If you don’t confirm it in advance, if relevant topics are mentioned during the conversation and you express taboos later, everyone’s faces will look bad.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After all, the host of "Tetsuko Nobuya" is Kuroyanagi Tetsuko, who is a senior leader in the circle. The interview during the conversation is casual

He is very sexy, but he is not the kind of host who follows the steps.

"Sure, don't worry."

Nakamura Masahiro nodded solemnly and answered in the affirmative again. Now that Nakamura Masahiro said so, the on-site supervisor was completely relieved.

He exchanged a few polite words with Nakamura Masahiro, then arranged for someone to take Nakamura Masahiro to the lounge to prepare, then turned around and rushed towards the host's lounge, Kuroyanagi Tetsuko.

At this time, Kuroyanagi Tetsuko was sitting in front of the makeup mirror, letting the makeup artist do her makeup while constantly flipping through the guest information in her hand.

When she heard the door open in the lounge, she looked up in the makeup mirror and saw the on-site supervisor entering through the mirror, so she asked.

"How is it? Is it easy to get in touch with the new supervisor?"

The on-site supervisor sat down on the chair next to him. He and Kuroyanagi Tetsuko have been working together for many years, and they get along relatively casually with each other.

After thinking for a moment, he recalled how Nakamura Masahiro made him feel, and replied calmly: "It's similar to the rumors in the circle. He has a very gentle personality, and it doesn't feel difficult to get in touch..."

"Of course, we can't rule out that this is just a superficial skill on his part, but to be able to do it to this extent on the surface is pretty impressive."

"By the way, have you confirmed it with him?"

Kuroyanagi Tetsuko nodded nonchalantly, looked through the information in her hand, and then changed the topic: "Does he have any taboo topics?"

"There is no taboo topic..."

After replying casually, the on-site supervisor frowned, thought for a moment, and said to Kuroyanagi Tetsuko with a serious face: "However, my suggestion is to try to avoid more sensitive topics."

"Since he has no taboo topics, there is no need to avoid them..."

Obviously, Kuroyanagi Tetsuko did not intend to accept the on-site supervisor's suggestion. She stopped flipping through the information, signaled the makeup artist to pause, and turned to look at the on-site supervisor next to her.

"Don't forget, the characteristic of our program is to speak directly. What the audience wants to see is the negative topics and gossip about the guests..."

"Only by meeting the needs and preferences of the audience can our programs achieve satisfactory audiovisual results. Otherwise, why do you think TV Asahi would provide such generous conditions and treatment?"

The on-site supervisor sighed sadly. Of course he knew why the program "Tetsuko Nobuya" was valued by TV Asahi.

In addition to Kuroyanagi Tetsuko's abilities and connections, it is largely because of the program "Tetsuko's House" that it has been able to maintain stable ratings.

Although the Japanese entertainment industry attaches great importance to human nature and sophistication, if the audio-visual performance is too poor, Kuroyanagi Tetsuko will still be abandoned by TV Asahi even if she has strong qualifications.

"I see...."

The on-site supervisor showed a look of approval. While nodding slightly, he stood up, turned and walked towards the door.

"I'll check the recording equipment again to avoid problems during shooting."

Masahiro Nakamura didn't know about the episode between the on-site supervisor and Tetsuko Kuroyanagi. He was currently staying in the lounge with peace of mind, holding the program's script in his hand to familiarize himself with the process.

"Tetsuko's House" is different from ordinary talk shows. Because of the host Tetsuko Kuroyanagi's deep qualifications, her interviews are often sharp, which makes many invited guests feel overwhelmed.

Masahiro Nakamura has rich experience, so he doesn't care much about this: when he was in the entertainment industry on the other side, he participated in some variety shows with well-known directors, and some hosts would often ask some provocative questions in order to gain traffic and ratings.

Compared with some large-scale shows on the other side, most of the variety shows in the Japanese entertainment circle are actually very peaceful, and they are more for the sake of program effect.

Well, except for late-night variety shows, those shows focus on large scales and are not the mainstream variety shows in the Japanese entertainment industry at all.
