Japanese big things

Chapter 369 Special Topic

Although Kamakura is a small town located by the sea, it has long been one of the tourist destinations for tourists at home and abroad due to its beautiful scenery, numerous cultural monuments, and the fact that it has been the filming location for many movies, TV series, and animations.

Perhaps because it is the peak tourist season, overseas tourists with various makeup can be seen everywhere in Kamakura. They either gather in groups of twos and threes to take photos and chat, or they walk around alone carrying backpacks.

There are a lot of people in Kamakura, which is certainly not comparable to a big city like Tokyo, but the slightly narrow streets are bustling with people, which makes it feel different from a big city.

Nakamura Masahiro held Takei Saki's tender little hand and walked through the dazzling shopping street. The two of them casually glanced at it from time to time, and occasionally stopped to buy when they encountered items they liked.

Although Masahiro Nakamura is well-known, this is a small place after all, and the traffic is mainly tourists. In addition, supervision is a behind-the-scenes occupation, so he is not afraid of being recognized.

Takei Saki is similar. Without the exquisite makeup and paired with a common mask, she just disappears from everyone.

The two of them walked slowly and chatted from time to time. Their attitude was very intimate, and they looked like a couple in love.

It's a pity that this is the image created. That is, the good acting skills of Nakamura Masahiro and Takei Saki made the ambiguous scenes invisible.

The reporter who followed kept a distance from the two of them, nodding with satisfaction from time to time while taking a few candid photos with his camera.

"Come on, Takei-san, let's go get something to eat..."

After wandering around for a while, it was almost time to eat, and Nakamura Masahiro led Takei Saki towards the restaurant.

"Do you have any preferences?"

"No, I don't have any..."

Takei Saki replied a little cautiously, and then followed Nakamura Masahiro obediently into a restaurant on the roadside.

The restaurant may not look big, but the decoration is quite elegant. Perhaps because the customers are mainly overseas tourists, the restaurant also thoughtfully provides overseas language services such as Chinese and English.

"Hello, what would you like to eat?"

As soon as the two sat down, the waiter in the store came over quickly, with a warm smile on his face, but he spoke in awkward Chinese with a Northeastern accent.

Takei Saki suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at the waiter in confusion. It sounded like the language from the other side, but she didn't understand it at all.

I subconsciously looked at Masahiro Nakamura, and saw that Masahiro Nakamura responded in the same language very familiarly, which sounded much more standard than the waiter.

"I've already ordered it..."

After finishing the conversation with the waiter, Nakamura Masahiro turned his head and smiled at Takei Saki, completing the language switch naturally.

"Are you Japanese?"

Listening to the familiar Japanese language, the waiter was surprised. He thought the two of them were also tourists from overseas.

"Feel sorry...."

Showing a slightly apologetic smile to the waiter, Nakamura Masahiro said with interest: "I just saw that the store provides Chinese services..."

"Since you are Japanese, then speak Japanese..."

The waiter frowned and looked a little embarrassed. He said discouragedly: "Foreign languages ​​are too difficult to speak. It's quite awkward to speak."

Obviously, for him, speaking foreign languages ​​is very awkward and uncomfortable: if it were not for service needs, I am afraid he would not be willing to speak foreign languages.

Takei Saki looked at the other person with a slightly sad face, and felt a hint of joy inexplicably. He wanted to laugh out loud, but was afraid of being rude, so he quickly held it back.

The waiter also noticed Takei Saki's expression and felt a little uncomfortable, but he couldn't say anything more and could only go back to the kitchen in a depressed tone.

Not long after, the dishes ordered by Nakamura Masahiro were served one after another. Just like the impression left by Japanese cuisine on the public, they looked more exquisite, but the portions were a bit sparse.

Nakamura Masahiro first glanced at the dining table near the door, where the reporter had chosen his seat, and he had already eaten.

I don’t know if the reporter is really dedicated, or if he doesn’t want to affect Nakamura Masahiro and Takei Saki. He seems to be planning to keep his distance throughout the whole process?

"Director Nakamura?"

Takei Saki noticed something unusual about Masahiro Nakamura, and saw the reporter in the direction of her gaze. She asked with some confusion.

"It's okay, let's eat..."

Ignoring the messy thoughts, Nakamura Masahiro withdrew his gaze, smiled at Takei Saki, and greeted him to eat with a gentle tone.

Looking at Masahiro Nakamura who looked calm, Takei Saki, although he had many doubts in his heart, could only suppress it at this time and eat with peace of mind.

Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded, as if it was a news broadcast on TV?

Subconsciously raising his head and taking a look, Nakamura Masahiro found a slightly old TV hanging on the wall in the store, which had been turned on at this time.

The screen showed that this was a special movie report from TBS TV station. Judging from the content broadcast by the host, it seemed to focus on the box office battle between the two movies "Model Student" and "Roman Baths"?

"Although the box office results of the two movies are still in an anxious tug-of-war, according to the latest data, "Model Student" directed by famous director Masahiro Nakamura has begun to gradually take the lead."

"The stars of "The Roman Baths", including Hiroshi Abe and Aya Ueto, recently went to a hot spring theme park in Tokyo and held a fan meeting there. It should be to continue to strengthen the promotion of the movie..."

"TBS TV station recently broadcast a special report on examination fraud, which exposed fraud in well-known universities including Kyoto University, Waseda University and Hitotsubashi University..."

"Affected by this, the popularity of the movie "Model Student" has increased, and more people are paying attention to this movie that depicts cheating in the exam room."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It is indeed a special report on movies. The talkative host focused almost all of the topic on "The Roman Baths" and "The Model Student", two of the most popular movies at the moment.

superior.

As for other movies of the same period, although it cannot be said to be simply skipped, it was only mentioned casually, and even the supporting roles were not given enough.

"Supervisor Nakamura...."

Takei Saki watched TV for a while, and suddenly her head came closer to Nakamura Masahiro. She lowered her voice and asked, "How much is the estimated box office of the movie "Model Student"?"

"uncertain...."

After thinking for a moment, Nakamura Masahiro shook his head, then showed hesitation and added attentively: "If we judge based on the current situation, without the influence of unexpected factors, it will probably be around 6 billion."

In fact, as for the box office performance of a movie, as long as the quality of the movie is guaranteed, a rough judgment can be made based on many factors such as marketing strategy, theater schedule, schedule rivals, and star appeal.

In other words, the producer will have an estimated target for how much box office a film can achieve in the film market when the film is released.

Of course, movie producers may also make errors in judgment, such as when negative news about the movie is intensively reported, or when the movie receives unexpected traffic, etc.

Nakamura Masahiro vaguely remembered the movie "Wolf Warrior 2" from the other side of the country, and seemed to have caught a good opportunity, and finally successfully won about 5.7 billion in box office.

Even if Wu Jing, the leading actor and director, was confident about the movie's box office, he probably wouldn't have dared to set such a high target at the beginning, right?

"Six billion..."

After sighing with emotion at this number, Takei Saki continued with a hint of longing: "Then, is there a chance to win the annual box office championship?"

"Takei-san, I'm afraid you're overthinking..."

Nakamura Masahiro rolled his eyes and was speechless about Takei Saki's impracticality. Is it so easy to win the annual box office championship?

In Japan's film market, animation films are king. It is extremely difficult for live-action films to overcome the hurdle of animation films.

Looking at the historical records of the box office charts, Miyazaki Hayao's animation movies often have box office figures in the tens of billions, and other animation movies easily have billions.

It can be seen from this situation that in the Japanese film market, strong animation films are a dimensionality-reducing blow when compared with live-action films.

If the impression in Memory Fragments is correct, there will be more anime movies in the future that will easily exceed tens of billions in box office, overwhelming the live-action movies.

Takei Saki continued to eat with some resentment. She had been excitedly fantasizing just now, but after being hit by Nakamura Masahiro, she immediately returned to reality.

After dinner, Nakamura Masahiro and Takei Saki went to Kamakura Kogakumae Station, a famous check-in holy place where tourists gathered.

Tourists from all over the world speak different languages ​​and accents, and the chattering noise gathers together like a noisy vegetable market.

The blue sea stretches as far as the eye can see, and the surging water is gently rippling. The subtle sounds are in great contrast with the excitement on the shore.

The Enoshima train approaching in the distance stopped steadily, and a group of passengers who had been waiting for a long time boarded it impatiently, with expressions of joy or excitement on their faces.

At the intersection, Nakamura Masahiro and Takei Saki stood opposite each other across the train track, just like the famous encounter scene in "Slam Dunk".

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and a sunny smile bloomed on Nakamura Masahiro's face, giving people a warm feeling.

Opposite me, Takei Saki also showed a faint smile, and his original heroic appearance had subsided, just like the traditional Japanese Yamato Nadeshiko.

A moment later, the reporter who was not far away pressed the shutter of the camera. There was a "click" and the ambiguous picture was instantly frozen.

"Nakamura Masahiro-san?"

Suddenly, a voice saying hello suddenly came into Nakamura Masahiro's ears, which made him feel quite familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.
