Japanese big things

Since Nakamura Masahiro has never seen the movie "Tarot", it is impossible to talk about his opinions and evaluations. Therefore, Wakamatsu Kouji had a casual chat and learned that Nakamura Masahiro was under the age of 18, and he was completely

I skipped this topic.

"I have read your work "A Long Day" very carefully..."

Looking at Masahiro Nakamura with admiration in his eyes, Wakamatsu Koji said in an admiring tone: "Honestly, it's hard to believe that this is a work that can be shot at your age."

Listening to Wakamatsu Koji's words with a calm expression, Nakamura Masahiro could feel the doubt in his tone. However, Nakamura Masahiro didn't pay too much attention to it. Even if Wakamatsu Koji had doubts, it was normal.

According to normal logic, the director's directing level is linked to his age. The older the director, the more mature his directing level is. Although not all directors follow this logic, it is generally the case.

There are also some super geniuses with extraordinary talents, but that genius is more reflected in ideas and creativity. As for shooting techniques and scheduling, even if there is innovation, the final works will often be crude and rough.

.

Well, this is unavoidable for all directors in their initial stages. Experience cannot be compensated by talent. Of course, there are some directors who can do better because they have accumulated rich experience in the deputy position.

experience.

However, Nakamura Masahiro's "One Long Day" violated this logic and broke Wakamatsu Koji's perception. Although he already had some understanding through Miyagi Genichiro, when he saw the real person Nakamura Masahiro, he was still unavoidable.

I started muttering.

In addition to the various advantages of the film "The Long Day", the most outstanding point is that the sophistication of the shooting and production is far beyond the ordinary level. It does not look like the work of a new director at all, but it is said to be the work of a well-known director.

No one will doubt the work.

After chatting for a while, Wakamatsu Koji changed the topic to film shooting techniques and some overall planning. Of course, Wakamatsu Koji was mainly asking, and Nakamura Masahiro answered. It was obvious that he was interested in taking the school entrance examination.

Nakamura Masahiro Ichiban.

"I have a question, why did you choose the theme of mid-life crisis?"

Staring at Nakamura Masahiro with burning eyes, Wakamatsu Koji brought the topic back to movies after passing the school entrance examination and said: "It stands to reason that a new director would be unlikely to choose this kind of subject."

After Wakamatsu Koji's words fell, several other people on the side also turned their attention to Nakamura Masahiro. Although Wakamatsu Koji was raising this question, they also had the same curiosity in their hearts. Well, it is indeed weird. Obviously Nakamura Masahiro

Not yet an adult, the subject matter of the film actually explores the mid-life crisis.

Generally speaking, new directors tend to choose themes and fields that they are good at. It is easy to cause problems if you rashly choose an unfamiliar direction. After all, you can only grasp things better if you are good at them.

"Uh, how should I put it..."

After opening his mouth, Nakamura Masahiro hesitated for a moment. This question is indeed not easy to answer. His age is an unavoidable flaw. It feels somewhat nonsense to discuss the mid-life crisis as a minor.

However, since Wakamatsu Koji has already raised this issue, Nakamura Masahiro cannot easily avoid it. With Wakamatsu Koji's serious attitude, it seems that it is not easy to deal with it with perfunctory rhetoric.

"Actually, it's because investment in this subject can be controlled within a small range..."

Twitching his lips, Nakamura Masahiro truthfully stated his initial thoughts, with a somewhat self-deprecating expression on his face. He smiled, and then added: "I am a newcomer after all, and I have never proven myself in the circle.

, it is difficult to gain the trust of investors, so I can only raise funds for filming myself."

"A very wise choice...."

Wakamatsu Koji nodded and smiled, and there were some wrinkles on his originally serious face. The trace of a social person exuding from his body also disappeared. In this look, he lost the halo of a master and looked like a kind and ordinary person.

Old man.

"Actually, I also want to make a big production with big scenes of chases and explosions. But this idea is just a thought..."

Noticing that everyone present showed a smile of recognition, Nakamura Masahiro's tense mood relaxed a lot. Smiling at a few people, Nakamura Masahiro continued: "If you want to put it into practice,

, that will cost a lot of money."

"That makes sense...."

Wakamatsu Koji nodded and said in a tone full of agreement: "It does require a lot of money to make big productions. If you don't have money, you can't make big productions. Just like me, you can't make big productions."

Well, this was just a joke by Wakamatsu Koji himself, and others would not dare to pick up the conversation. With Wakamatsu Koji's status and influence, there is definitely no problem if he wants to make a big production, as long as he changes some of the words.

Uncontrollable thoughts and opinions.

For senior executives in the Japanese film industry, although Koji Wakamatsu is a master who cannot be ignored, he is also a thorn that is difficult to tame. There is no such thing as a ban, but there is definitely a secret resistance.

p>

If Wakamatsu Koji is willing to surrender, then the filming of a large-scale production will be within easy reach. But if he continues to resist to the end, it will be impossible to shoot a large-scale production. Well, unless Koji Wakamatsu himself can raise enough funds.

"Boy, do you have any idea to become my disciple?"

After talking casually for a few words, Wakamatsu Koji suddenly came up with such an idea. Not only was Nakamura Masahiro very surprised, but several other people on the side also showed a look of astonishment. Obviously, Wakamatsu Koji's behavior was unexpected.

It exceeded everyone’s expectations.

"What?"

Seeing that Nakamura Masahiro had no reaction, Wakamatsu Koji frowned slightly. He raised his eyes and glanced at Nakamura Masahiro, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone: "Are you unwilling?"

Although somewhat unpopular with the mainstream of the Japanese film industry, Wakamatsu Koji is still a veteran in the industry, and he considers himself to be well-known and influential. I thought that it would be easy to recruit a disciple, but who knew that the other party didn't respond?

This makes Wakamatsu Koji look a little confused.

Several other people were also staring at Nakamura Masahiro intently, with expressions of astonishment still on their faces. Undoubtedly, they couldn't figure out what Nakamura Masahiro was thinking, and they didn't understand why Nakamura Masahiro didn't want to be Wakamatsu Koji's disciple.

p>

You know, this is Wakamatsu Koji, a master figure in the Japanese film industry. Many people want to be the disciple of Wakamatsu Koji, but there is no way. Now Wakamatsu Koji takes the initiative to accept a disciple, who knows who is unwilling.

?

"Uh, this..."

He wanted to refuse, but Wakamatsu Koji expressed his position like this, which made Nakamura Masahiro hesitate. If he was a newcomer who didn't know anything, then there was no need to think too much and just become Wakamatsu Koji's disciple.

But the problem is that Nakamura Masahiro is not a novice who doesn't know anything. Even though he has not yet entered the film industry, he has collected some information and has also asked about Wakamatsu Koji's deeds. If he rashly becomes his disciple, then he will be

There is a high possibility of being involved.

For Nakamura Masahiro, who is determined to develop in the field of commercial films, this is not worth it. He respects the master Wakamatsu Koji because his films are indeed unique, and he does not want to be implicated in this.

"Teacher, Ozaki Soko-san called and I hope you can go to his place."

Just when the quiet atmosphere at the scene became a little depressing, the young man broke in again. He opened the sliding door, nodded to everyone present, and then walked softly to Wakamatsu Koji and whispered

The opening report.

His arrival was a little too sudden, like a foreign intruder, like a stone dropped on the calm water, causing ripples in the originally calm water, no longer as quiet as before.<

/p>

The oppressive atmosphere was broken, like being lightly poked by a tiny needle tip. As the gas quietly drained away, the oppressive feeling also disappeared. Nakamura Masahiro subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relieved.
"Sorry, I need to go out."

After reaching out to dismiss the young man, Wakamatsu Koji looked at the other people, and first explained the situation in an apologetic tone. Then, he moved his eyes to Nakamura Masahiro, and said in a calm tone: "Since you

If you don’t want to, then forget it.”

"I..."

Opening his mouth, Nakamura Masahiro wanted to defend himself. But when the words came to his lips, he didn't know what to say. Wakamatsu Koji's idea of ​​accepting a disciple was not wrong, but Nakamura Masahiro didn't want to be involved.

.

"Okay, no need to say anything, I know you have concerns..."

He stretched out his hand to stop Nakamura Masahiro's attempt to speak. Wakamatsu Koji had already figured out the reason why Nakamura Masahiro refused. Although he could not care about the small tricks of the Japanese film industry, it did not mean that Nakamura Masahiro could do the same.

p>

Due to his status and influence, the Japanese film industry did not dare to make any big moves against him. At most, they would spend some time secretly and privately. But Nakamura Masahiro is different. He is currently a newcomer with a clean resume, and that is not the case.

It’s up to people.

"That's it..."

Looking fixedly at Nakamura Masahiro, Wakamatsu Koji breathed a long sigh of relief, and then sighed: "I still have things to deal with."
