Life in Tokyo starting as a child star

The Japan Film Ethics Management Committee is indeed similar to censorship agencies in other countries. It is the most hated agency among industry insiders.

As long as they give an order, movies, TV series, and animations will be deleted or severely modified before being put on the shelves.

The key point is that it’s not enough if you don’t listen to them – you have to pass the censorship agency.

Beicheng Minoru was also speechless.

Consider yourself a child actor.

He suddenly became an R18 actor while acting, who could he ask to reason with?

but--

"This is a good thing."

Kitaki Minoru touched his smooth chin.

Except that he turned into an actor with experience in R18 restricted films.

The fate of the Film Ethics Management Committee is by no means a bad thing for "The Grudge"!

Even if viewers under the age of 18 are blocked due to this, it is not a big problem.

Because the lost audience will be filled by more curious audiences.

Just like the rumors circulating in previous lives that "The Grudge" and "The Ring" had scared people to death, attracting the attention of many people.

Yinglun's fate will only be more convincing than such rumors.

After all, this is an official organization that personally came to endorse it and raised the rating of "The Grudge".

This is something that any horror film director or actor should straighten their back and be proud of.

Kitazumi can almost predict that many viewers will be attracted by Yinglun's official announcement and the upgrade notices from major theaters.

Audiences who are not originally interested in horror movies may be able to buy a ticket because of this - this will be a huge help to the box office!

You must know that the biggest reason why horror movies have mediocre box office performance is because the audience is too small.

Many people don't like the feeling of being scared.

And this sudden notification from Ying Lun perfectly broadened the audience for "The Grudge".

It's just that it's a bit unfriendly to Kitaki Minoru.

He is only nine years old.

With the rating of "The Grudge," he would have to wait at least nine years to see the finished film of his.

He sat back in the children's recliner and enjoyed the leg-beating service from the on-set attendant. At the same time, Kitumi Minori took the drink handed to him and took a sip, his eyes shining brightly.

He really wanted to ask Qingshuishan if he was lucky, and how could such a good thing happen to him.

Otherwise, how could you catch such sudden wealth? How to get such perfect promotional materials without spending a penny?

However, considering that Qingshuishan is Japanese, he has never seen a large truck.

Even if you say it in Japanese, the other person doesn't understand what it means.

So Beizumi went straight to the topic.

"Did the Film Ethics Management Committee issue an announcement?"

"Hehe, as expected of you, you are a precocious child, and you can see the essence of the matter immediately."

Mitsumi Kitazumi immediately clarified the current situation.

Qingshuishan laughed.

As a director, of course he knows that the Film Ethics Management Committee is just doing business and has no intention of promoting his movie.

But that didn't stop him from making a big fuss about it.

"I have already asked Xuanfa to reveal the news on the Internet and some media, and Yinglun's announcement has just come out. It is estimated that major movie studios will issue announcements about the change of restricted ratings today or tomorrow."

The voice paused.

"Precocious, it seems that "The Grudge" will really do better than expected this time."

"Of course." Kitumi smiled and joked: "Uncle Qingshui, don't forget me, a hero who has worked hard and made great achievements. If there is no satisfactory thank you afterwards, I will really accuse you of abusing your servants. ”

He and Qingshuishan would often make jokes like this, and Qingshuishan would occasionally say "subordinates abuse the director" against Tiangang.

So basically no one would take such words seriously.

but--

"Haha, don't worry, precocious child. When this "Grudge" is over, I will definitely give you a thank you."

It was supposed to be just a joke.

But this time, Qing Shuishan, who had never been very serious, lost his usual cheerfulness in his voice.

"Huh? Uncle Qingshui, let me emphasize first that I was just joking,"

Unexpectedly, Qingshuishan would actually take his joke seriously, Kitazumi Minoru added.

".Can I not know you are joking?"

Qingshuishan on the opposite side spoke angrily.

Kitumi Minoru could even vaguely see the other person lying on the bed, rolling his eyes at the phone wordlessly.

but

"All joking aside, it's really all thanks to you this time, precocious child."

Others do not know their own situation.

Is it possible that he still doesn't know his own situation?

To be honest, he didn't have much confidence in the movie "The Grudge" before he decided to mortgage his property.

Three movies in a row.

It is impossible to attract any investment from outside.

It can be said that both career and life have reached their lowest point.

And at that time, the first person who came over to help him, a down-and-out director, was Kitazumi Minoru.

He's obviously just a servant.

Just a nine-year-old kid still playing in the mud.

But that day, in the izakaya, while drinking with Hihiko Honma, he was really surprised when he saw Minoru Beicheng appearing next to him like a magic weapon descending from the sky.

Because to this day, he still remembers Kitumi's appearance when he appeared.

Clean autumn children's clothing.

The same smiling tone as always, the handsome and lovely face, and the beautiful and clean facial features are highlighted by the lights in the store.

It's just that the opponent seems to be able to do it with ease, but in fact his breathing is slightly disordered.

If you look closely, you can easily see that there are actually some beads of sweat on the other person's forehead.

It must have been not so smooth when I came here.

At that moment, Qingshuishan was truly moved.

I really feel like my eye circles are red and my eyes are sore.

As a Japanese, he didn't know the idiom "return a favor in return".

But he still understands how difficult it is for Seumi Kiyokita to achieve this step, and he is actually willing to put down his status as a top-notch warrior to shoot a horror movie.

At that time, Qingshuishan decided.

We must make this movie a success!

You must never let down your precocious child’s trust in you!

He polished the lens repeatedly for this purpose.

There are also various scenes outside.

Every detail is strived for the best.

Now, he's really on fire.

Only half a month has passed, and the movie "The Grudge" has already made a lot of money.

Of course he wanted to repay Kitumi Minoru.

"Yeah?"

Sensing the change in Qingshuishan's tone, Kitazumi remained silent for a moment and said with a smile: "Okay, then I'll wait for the surprise you give me, Uncle Qingshui. But let me say it first, Kamen Rider, Ultraman I don’t particularly like stuff like this, so don’t buy it for me.”

"Precocious, you brat."

Qingshui Shan was also speechless.

Finally the atmosphere is just right.

As a result, Kitumi Minoru broke the good atmosphere as soon as she opened her mouth.

but

"Forget it, I get it! Just stay tuned!"

After laughing and scolding for a few words, Qingshuishan had another exchange with Kitaki Minoru before hanging up the phone.

"very good--"

I glanced at the phone screen.

Beicheng nodded with satisfaction and put down the drink in his hand.

His eyes also turned to the male servant next to him who was about ten years old and was sweating profusely.

Then he smiled and touched the other person's head: "Thank you, big brother, you don't have to help me beat my feet anymore."

"There's no need to say thank you. Didn't Minoru say it all? We are good friends. I did it because I liked it."

The otaku who was flattered by Kitami Minoru's thanks showed a slightly pleading expression: "Then let's play together again if we have the chance, Minoru-chan."

"Absolutely, we will be good friends for life."

Beicheng Shi smiled and nodded in agreement.

Maybe it's because he likes children.

Just after joining the filming crew of "Daily Life in Qinghai Family", I made so many 'good friends'.

We are all good kids.

So he also used his full strength in this filming to bring out their acting skills.

This can be regarded as reciprocating a favor.

"Then, you can look forward to the next step, right?"

Turn your attention to the box office information of "The Grudge" on your mobile phone.

Kitazumi became energetic.

Surprises always come faster than Kitumi imagines.

Ying Lun's announcement and the Japan National Film Institute's adjustment of the rating of "The Grudge" broke out soon.

The heat is rising.

This not only attracted the attention of the industry, but also attracted the attention of outside audiences.

This node is adjusted from the R15 restriction level to the R18 restriction level.

The reason for the announcement was that "the content of the film is too scary and not suitable for teenagers under the age of 18." ’

The entire industry is in a frenzy.

Because there are very few things like this kind of official organizations helping to endorse things.

It is also a recognition of the horror of "The Grudge"!

This time, it not only attracted the audience who already like to watch horror movies, but also aroused the interest of the audience who were not originally interested in horror movies.

After watching movies for so many years, this is the first time I have seen the new thing of adjusting the age certification during the release!

People are interested.

"The Grudge", which was already the dark horse of the season, naturally became another hit.

This fire can be regarded as burning brightly.

So much so that major movie theaters have added additional films to their schedules, and movie tickets for "The Grudge" are still in short supply!

It is precisely in this situation that people in the industry and outside the circle are paying attention.

The box office of "The Grudge" soared.

The box office quickly touched the record set by "Midnight Ghost".

Then--

Under the spotlight.

The rising box office line jumped sharply, reaching 1.237 billion yen on the seventeenth day, officially announcing that it had broken the 1.2 billion yen record set by "Midnight Ghost" in 1998!

And it has only been released for more than half a month. According to the upcoming schedule, "The Grudge" will have a box office of 2 billion yen just around the corner!

The industry is going crazy at this moment

Because this result is too exaggerated.

Give a simple example.

At the time, the average box office of the first three "Swordsman Den" films was only 2.5 billion yen.

In other words, "The Grudge", a horror film with an investment of only 50 to 60 million yen, has the potential to catch up with action business films like "Swordsman".

This is of course quite incredible.

The name Kitaki Minoru, also driven by "The Grudge", once again entered everyone's field of vision.

Compared to Kayako Saeki, Toshio Saeki played by Minoru Kitami in the movie "The Grudge" is even more eye-catching!

Until then.

Everyone discovered that it was not just characters like Aoki Kenichi in "Swordsman Den" that Kitumi Minoru could control.

The evil character like Toshio Saeki in "The Grudge" can also be played with great proficiency.

Since "Swordsman Den", Yulong Banner, and the Professional Kendo Exchange Competition, their inherent impression that Kitumi Minoru can only play the role of a swordsman like "Aoki Kenichi" has been easily broken.

Many people call him ‘a miracle in the sub-service industry! ’ And because his performance of Toshio Saeki was so creepy, he was given the nickname ‘Ghost Boy’!

The discussion of Kitami Minori as a subcontractor has once again increased.

Everything went smoothly!

It was at this time when everything was going smoothly for Kitaki Minoru.

"Season with pepper, salt, and MSG. This will give the chicken more flavor before frying."

It's about nine o'clock in the evening.

This is the time when any slave will take a break.

However, flipping through the cooking book in his hand, Tachibana Ayumi wiped the sweat from his cheeks and murmured down various points without any intention of taking a rest.

The reason is simple.

As the main protagonist of the second season of "Little Diner", he needs to remember the recipes to be filmed tomorrow to avoid making mistakes during the actual filming.

Lift your head.

The Ziyu Training Center was quiet.

It seemed like no one existed except him.

But Tachibana Ayumi didn't care. He just followed his own steps and memorized the recipe in his hand.

About half an hour passed like this.

A startled voice suddenly came out.

"Tachibana-kun, are you still here? Didn't I tell you to go back early?"

"Ah Hidaka-san."

Seeing the door opposite open, Tachibana Ayumi immediately stood up and bowed to the middle-aged man who walked out.

Hidakahiro also had a headache when he looked at Tachibana Ayumi in front of him.

But in the end he shook his head.

Walk up to the opponent and go straight in.

"Tachibana-kun, you probably want to know the cumulative box office of "The Grudge", right? That's why you stayed so late."

"Yes!"

Tachibana Ayumi nodded vigorously.

If it were other people's box office results, then Tachibana Ayumi wouldn't care too much at all.

But Beicheng is different.

He is the person he must surpass!

Because he has never forgotten the scene when he stood on the coast of Kamakura.

The sky is very blue, and together with the blue sky and white clouds, there is the sea behind.

When talking about Beicheng, he pressed his white long hat with his hand, and the always strong Hosokawa Shibaizumi looked pink on his face and his skirt was flying.

To this day, Tachibana Ayumi has a deep memory.

"."

Rigaobo looked at his servant's appearance and was speechless.

Because he didn't know why Tachibana Ayumi seemed to be competing with Kitaki Minoru.

As long as it's Kitumi Minoru's grades, he would take the initiative to come over and ask.

There was really no choice but to speak.

"'The Grudge' has accumulated a total box office of 1.237 billion yen to date."

"Two hundred and thirty-seven million.?"

The cooking book slipped from his hands.

Tachibana Ayumi's originally curious big eyes suddenly dimmed at this moment.

As a son-in-law, he naturally knows how difficult it is for a horror film to achieve such results.

At this moment, he only felt a little suffocated.

cannot exceed

Unable to cross

Beicheng Minoru was like a big mountain, lying in front of him.

"Tachibana-kun, you don't actually need to compare with that freak Beicheng."

See Tachibana Ayumi like this.

Higao Hiroshi said helplessly: "The sub-service industry is like a sea. In any era, there are one or two sub-services leading the wave in this sea. There is no doubt that Kitazumi Minoru is one of them. He is outside the norm. How can you compare with him? It makes no sense at all."

Kitumi Minoru's achievements along the way are impossible to replicate if you take any one of them.

Don’t say anything else.

Just the title of nine-year-old sword master.

He can already step on the heads of all other servants.

and

"Now is not the time to worry about the movements of that weirdo boy in Beicheng. Tachibana-kun, you still have the second season of "Little Cafeteria" to film."

That's right.

The second season of "Little Diners" has been bombarded since its debut.

The ratings have also been declining, unable to maintain even 10%, and the average ratings have dropped to 9.36%.

If this continues, something bad will happen.

You must know that Kitami Minoru created the "Reiwa late-night miracle" during filming.

As a result, when it came to the filming of his own drama, the miracle was not created, but the ratings plummeted. This is a bit scary.

After all, what most people in the industry fear most is comparison with their peers.

Hokusumi Minoru is in front. What does Tachibana Ayumi count? A mink-tailed dog?

"I understand. I will try my best."

Although the disappointment on his face was visible to the naked eye, Tachibana Ayumi regained his composure and nodded his head.

Indeed, although it is not possible to reach the level of Kitami Minori for the time being, at least the current shooting work must be done well.

Only in this way, Chai Quan-chan might be impressed by herself!

Thank you very much for your monthly votes! Work hard to write the next chapter!
