Tokyo bubble life

Crane finally went back!

After staying in Yamazakin for 3 days, Shizuoka's mother finally called and called the girl who was reluctant to leave.

To be honest, if I could stay in a place where the room is spacious, where there is delicious food every day, where I can play everywhere, and I don’t have to do my homework, then I definitely don’t want to go home.

In short, after playing wildly with her in Tokyo for three days, Tsuruko reluctantly was sent back to Shizuoka by Shinkansen happily by Naoki Nagayama.

This morning, Naoki Naoyama felt that Yamazakura-in had finally regained the peace it should have had!

After a simple breakfast, I felt that Yoshimura Otomo and Itou Xiu had been released for a long time. Naoki Naoyama felt a little sorry, so he drove to the studio to see the completion of the script.

See if you can help, if you can.

Pushing open the door of the studio, it looked quite busy inside, but I didn't see Shuichi Itou, but Masaki Inada was arranging matters related to the photography team, it seems that the young man's level has improved again.

"Naoki-san, good morning~" Seeing Naoki Naoyama, Masaki Inada hurried over to say hello.

"Morning, Inada-san, aren't Xiuichi-san and Otomo-san here?" Yongshan Naoki looked around, but didn't find these two people.

"Shuichi-san went to visit Hachiko's hometown. If Otomo-san said, he should have gone to pick up an Akita dog. I have visited different pet stores many times, and I expect to be back at noon."

Masaki Inada knew the whereabouts of the two of them quite well, because the movie "Hachiko" was officially under preparation, and the whole crew began to prepare for the movie.

"Well, then I'll wait for a while, and Inada-kun will continue to work." Anyway, there is nothing wrong, Naoki Yongshan intends to wait in the office for a while,

"Hi, then I'm sorry." Masaki Inata bowed slightly and continued to deal with the filming team.

The office in the studio is still a small one, full of samples taken before, magazines and some other tools, but after Otomo Fangcun has been stationed in the studio frequently, 3 desks have been fixed,

Even though Naoki Naoyama is often invisible, there is a desk reserved for him in the office, and other staff members of the studio also have semi-fixed workstations in the large bay outside.

In short, this small company feels more and more formal.

I read today's newspaper in the office, I didn't expect there was news about Nakamori Akina, but it was among a group of newcomer idols, and even the photos were gray and white,

"Don't you even have a color photo? It seems that the media is not very optimistic about it." Yongshan Naoki flipped through the newspaper and saw her introduction, "A milky girl with a bit of a sex?"

"What do you think of Yanyin's planning? Ming Caijiang has a pure (round) real (round) face, how can he be H?"

After glancing at it, he stopped paying attention, and Naoki Yongshan continued to browse down,

Japanese newspapers are like this. The headlines are even more horrifying than the UC shocking body of later generations. Sure enough, they have begun to gain insight into the audience's psychology since the Showa era.

"Naoki-san! You're on the cover of a magazine!"

Itou Shuichi's voice came from the door, followed by a rush of footsteps, the wooden door of the office was pushed open hastily by the person outside the door, and even brought a lot of air.

Yi Tangxiu waved the magazine in his hand, a man in a suit could be vaguely seen on the cover, and the name of the magazine - "POPEYE" was written in dark blue fonts.

"Naoki-san, look! Magazine cover!"

Yi Tangxiu pressed the magazine on the desk, allowing Naoki Naoyama to see the appearance of the magazine more clearly,

"A blue-gray suit and a white shirt. Is this the time I temporarily acted as a model for a photo shoot?" Yongshan Naoki remembered that he had gone to Ito Junko's house to discuss the signing of the contract when he came back from the studio. Pulled over to do a model,

"Hi! That was the time, I didn't expect the last photo to be in the editorial room of "POPEYE"." Itou Shuichi said excitedly, "This is the most popular fashion magazine in the past few years! I am at Shibuya Station. The store saw it, bought it immediately and told you!"

Looking at the handsome man in a suit on the cover of the magazine, Naoki Yongshan's first feeling was: "The money I received back then was less!"

When being dragged to be a temporary model, the fee is still the price of a small studio.

Randomly flipping through the "Xiu Yisang, didn't the editor of this magazine say that he went to the United States himself to find American models to shoot? Why did he use photos from a small studio? Are they locals?"

"Who knows? But Naoki-san's photo is perfect for a magazine, a proper CityBoy!" Osamu Ido said happily, "He's still very handsome. That kind!"

Naoki Naoyama didn't have any special feelings about being on the cover of fashion magazines. He thought it was similar to being exposed in media newspapers, so he was not particularly happy.

"Shuichi-san, did you find the family of the loyal dog eight princesses Ueno Eisaburo today?"

Affected by Naoki Nagayama's composure, Shuichi Ido also returned to his normal tone when he got down to business: "Hey, we've talked about it, they agree to the film adaptation without a doubt, and are even willing to show some old photos It is the expectation of Ueno Eisaburo's family to give us a reference and spread the story of the loyal dog Hachiko."

"Is that so? That went really smoothly." Naoki Yongshan also felt relieved, "Then the script has been completed?"

"Of course, I invited the screenwriter who often cooperates to rush to work." Itou Shuichi took out the script draft from his briefcase, "Naoki-san will check it out at the end."

"Okay, then you have to take a closer look~"

Originally, it was for this matter that Naoki Naoyama took over the script and started to read it. By the way, he picked up the pen on the desk to take notes.

Seeing this, Yi Tangxiu didn't make any more sound, but picked up "POPEYE" and started to read it.

Naoki Naoyama looked at the script on the table, and compared it with the plot of later generations in his mind. The Japanese version of "The Tale of Hachiko" has a more delicate grasp of emotions. The ending of Hachiko is very painful, which is ironic to human nature. It is more profound, and the American version of "The Story of Hachiko the Faithful Dog" reduces the suffering that Hachiko suffered when he waited for his master in the later period. The interaction between the master and Hachiko is more natural, and the ending is more gentle.

Which of the two is more suitable? Is divinity highlighted in suffering, or warmth in sorrow? Naoki Naoyama thought over and over again, and made a bad decision. He looked at Shuichi Itou next to him,

"Xiuichi-san, you should have read the report. Do you think the story of the loyal dog Hachiko should be more realistic, or more like a fairy tale?"

Shuichi Ido was stopped by this question, and thought about it carefully: "If you want to fully describe the story of the loyal dog Hachiko, then it should be true; if you want to express the emotions between people and pets, then it should be a fairy tale. alright."

Naoki Naoyama thought about it. The Japanese version of the movie was more realistic about the humanities after World War II. At that time, the social atmosphere was relatively indifferent. In fact, there is a difference of more than 50 years from now. The new Showa generation has already felt the post-war situation. It's not too deep, it's still a bit of a fairy tale.

Therefore, the characteristics of the age were blurred in the script, and then the suffering of Hachiko in the script was appropriately reduced, and the interaction between humans and dogs was also increased, and a lot of tear-jerking parts were also added in the end.

Such a change is more than 2 hours

"Xiuichi-san, I feel that it's almost done." Naoki Naoyama handed the almost unrecognizable script to Shuichi Itou who had been quietly waiting beside him, and Shuichi Yitang read it without being surprised,

Ten minutes later,

"Naoki-san is worthy of being a writer!" Osamu Ido laughed while rubbing his reddened eyes, "I have read the script before, but I actually feel like crying."

"The purest feelings can always infect people." Naoki Naoyama sipped his tea and said, "Xiuichi-san, please talk to the previous screenwriter, this time it is a cooperation."

"But obviously." Itang Xiu wanted to say that the original script was just a simple expansion of the news, and it was not comparable to Naoki Naoki's creation.

"Stupid tape, after all, others have worked so hard to write the script, so it must be cooperation."

Yi Tangxiu saw that Naoki Naoyama was so open-minded, so he didn't say anything.

At noon, I ate a studio work lunch that I haven’t eaten for a long time, and I feel a little nostalgic.

"Why did Shinfu-san choose such a promotional image, I don't like it very much."

I don’t know how many times I complained to Nobuo Tomioka. Akina Nakamori frowned. She has already raised many opinions on the slogan and cartoon image on the poster.

However, most of the adults in the publicity department are men. They think that such a slogan is more in line with the current style of the entertainment industry, and it can also make fans buy it.

Besides, who would pay attention to the opinions of underage girls? Letting her debut under her real name last time was already a big concession.

"Akira sauce, this image is more in line with the fashion trend." Nobuo Tomioka explained dryly, "On this point, please trust the judgment of the staff!"

In fact, Mingcai also knows that this image is a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed for the time being, but there is a sigh of relief in her heart

"Naoki-san must not like such an idol!"

She doesn't have much to do about the staff of Mingcai's publicity department belittling her. After all, she's just an idol who hasn't debuted yet, so she can only fight for it as much as possible.

However, at this time, he has secretly made up his mind that he must participate more in the subsequent publicity.

In the afternoon, when Naoki Nagayama and Shuichi Itou continued to discuss the filming plan and budget, Otomo Yoshimura came back with two big pet boxes.

Inside the pet box were a newborn Akita and a half-grown Akita, both of which appeared to be purebred and had the exact same colors.

"Naoki-san, are you here too?" Seeing Naoki Yongshan in the office, Otomo Fangcun was a little surprised, but immediately realized, "Just in time, come and see these two puppies. I have been picking them for a long time recently!"

Naoki Yongshan directly picked up the newborn one. The little guy was crawling around in the box energetically, when he was picked up suddenly, he let out a sharp howl.

However, Naoki Yongshan is a puppy who has been raised for a long time after all. After touching it a little, the little guy calmed down.

"The little guy is still very good."

Seeing another half-grown Akita dog, it was also very cooperative under Shuichi Ido's teasing, so he said: "These two are relatively close relatives, very good!"

"However, we still need a real adult Akita dog." Shuichi Ido said, "It will take about half a year for the puppy to grow up. We don't have such a long time."

"Yeah. Fortunately, Akita dogs have similar colors, hahaha."

Otomo Fangcun felt a little stressed: "The grown-up Akita dog is going to the rescue station, and we have to solve the problems of the dog's relatives."

You can't really find a stray dog.

"Otomo-san, you can also go to the Japanese Dog Preservation Association to find out, they should be raised by someone." Naoki Naoyama gave a little hint, as a professional dog association, there must be more channels than ordinary people.

"Hi!"

Now that Fangcun Dayu is back, we can continue talking about the venue and budget we talked about before.

"Nani, build a real station?"

"Hey, it's best to find a similar old-fashioned station, and then we can do some decorations. In fact, we only need the area at the entrance."

Naoki Naoyama originally wanted to go to the real station to shoot, but it is difficult to control the comings and goings of people, and the shooting time will take a long time, which may affect the real station.

And it's a story from a long time ago, so it's good to have a little old-fashioned atmosphere. As for other decorations, the props set of this era are definitely beyond your imagination.

"But." What Fangcun Dayu wanted to say at this time was that the funds were burning!

"Otomo-san, I just discussed with Naoki-san that the upper limit of investment for this movie is 100 million!" Shuichi Ido thought about it in advance, and said, "The share of the last movie is about to come down, so there is a need Where the money is spent, let it go!"

"Is it so high?" Otomo Fangcun was too surprised. The total box office of many movies in this era is only 100 million.

At the same time, I also understood Naoki Naoyama's emphasis on this movie, "I understand, if this is the case, then I can let go!"

The next few people continued to chat about all aspects of filming while stroking the Akita dog.

If you want to release it in the summer, you will have to race against time in these three months!

In the evening, I had dinner with the two of them. Because I had to drive, I didn't drink, so I saved it until the day of the finale.

At dusk, the landscape lights in the courtyard of Yamazakura have been turned on, making the house look unreal.

Naoki Naoyama drove into the garage, then opened the door,

Taro, who was already as tall as a calf, ran over quickly, but this time he didn't rush forward,

Instead, when he reached the side of Naoki Nagayama, he suddenly sniffed hard a few times, and then yelled at Naoki Nagayama several times,

It's as if the housewife found out that the man was having an affair,

The aggrieved little eyes clearly revealed the following meaning:

"You have other dogs outside!!"
