Tokyo Literary Godfather

"Fujiwara-kun, I didn't expect you to know so much about lighting equipment." The lighting engineer was surprised. Seeing the operation of Kei Fujiwara, he looked like an old craftsman who had been in the crew for many years.

In Japan, anyone who has rich experience and superb skills in a technical position in a certain industry is called a "craftsman", and Japan respects craftsmen very much. Even if it's just a fried shrimp, as long as you've been fried for more than fifty years, I can't wait to leave a memorial tablet for you in the temple.

The god of sushi, the god of tempura, the god of rice... Kei Fujiwara has heard of it a lot in his previous life. Although there is a lot of hype, it has to be said that this trend is more beneficial to society, at least Many seemingly ordinary workers have gained respect from society.

And these staff members of the crew, whether they are directors, cameramen, lighting engineers, or an ordinary AD, are also called craftsmen.

"Haha." Fujiwara Kei smiled honestly and started to make nonsense: "I study this kind of major in college, and I joined the film club at school..."

Before he finished speaking, Nishimura Taro's voice sounded behind his head: "Fujiwara-kun, please come here."

Kei Fujiwara glanced back at Taro Nishimura, who appeared to have died suddenly, but found that besides Taro Nishimura, the director, producer, and even Guixiang Arima were all watching him.

Fujiwara Kei frowned, feeling an ominous feeling.

Kei Fujiwara ran over, "Director Nishimura, Director Sato, what's the matter?"

Sato Wataru said nothing, looked at Kei Fujiwara up and down, and said, "Turn sideways and take a look."

Fujiwara Kei was a little strange, but he did as he was told and turned sideways.

"Turn around and look."

Kei Fujiwara turned around.

Sato Wataru nodded subconsciously. Was this person actually AD? I hadn't noticed him before, but his body proportions were really good.

Of course it's good, otherwise why would I be targeted by Mrs. Yoshihara?

Kei Fujiwara looks pretty handsome, but no one cares about him. He is just a stand-in and his face will not be shown.

"Fujiwara-kun, what is your height and weight?" Arima Katsura asked.

"Height 181 cm, weight 71 kg."

"Change his clothes... Fujiwara-kun, Kimura-san is injured and can't come to the set for the time being. We plan to find a stand-in to take over. Thank you for your hard work."

Kei Fujiwara didn't show too much surprise and just asked: "Can't you choose one of the passerby actors?"

"Their body types are very different from Kimura-san. Of all the people, you and Kimura-san are the closest in body type."

"I see."

Seeing Kei Fujiwara accepting it so quickly, Tsutomu Sato was a little surprised. If it were someone else, although he was very happy to be in close contact with the big star Arima Guixiang, he would still hesitate for a while without confidence. After all, Japanese people have this virtue .

——"Eh? Is it me? Can I really do this?"

——"No, I can't do it. You'd better change the director to someone else..."

——"Eh? Eh?"

He even thought about the words to encourage him, but unexpectedly Kei Fujiwara agreed directly.

Sato continued: "Although it's just a stand-in, it will interact with Ueto Terumi (the role played by Arima Guixiang) in performance. You'd better memorize the lines and actions of these few scenes, for your performance and lines There are no acting requirements, but the general content should be kept in mind. Otherwise, if Ueto Terumi is asked to read the lines alone, her acting skills will be affected. There is also positioning, don’t make mistakes, and don’t block Ueto Terumi’s camera.”

"No problem." Kei Fujiwara said.

Sato Wataru glanced at his face. Fujiwara Kei had no expression, no trace of nervousness, and seemed very confident.

Sato Wataru pulled Nishimura Taro and asked: "How is this person's work ability? Is he smart?"

Nishimura Taro is very protective of his subordinates: "He is very smart. Although he is a newcomer, he seems to be very experienced. He has never made any mistakes when entrusted to him."

At this time, he thought of something again, and added: "I have seen him guide passers-by actors in acting, and I feel that he also seems to have a lot of acting experience. If he is just a stand-in, there is no problem."

Sato nodded: "That's good."

Kei Fujiwara got the script for the male lead and started to read it, while Wataru Sato filmed other people's scenes first.

The characters played by Hayato Kimura don’t have too many lines in these scenes, so they are relatively easy to remember.

What's more, the director doesn't have too high requirements on his acting skills and lines, even if he speaks his lines in a Kansai accent, it doesn't matter, anyway, his voice will not appear in the feature film in the end. Let him participate in the performance like a starring role just to maintain a normal rhythm so as not to affect Arima Keika's performance.

But Fujiwara Kei still had to do his best, because he seemed to vaguely smell the opportunity again.

Although the plot of being a stand-in and being admired by the director for his acting skills and thus embarking on an acting career is really a bit bloody. But even if such a bloody plot does not happen, it is always right to leave a good impression on these creative staff.

Kei Fujiwara was a stage actor in the theater in his previous life, so he must have some acting skills and line skills.

The lines were memorized quickly. Kei Fujiwara walked up to Keixiang Arima and asked politely: "Ms. Arima, shall we review the lines?"

Arima Keika put down the script, looked at Fujiwara Kei, and said expressionlessly: "Okay, let's rehearse it first."

The two of them each took their scripts, found a secluded corner, and read out their lines.

"Terumi! There are so many good men in Japan, why do you have to like a man who has cheated on you!"

"Who else can I like besides him?"

"You can take a closer look at the men around you, maybe they are also looking at you..."

That's right, "In the Name of Love" is a TV series that licks dogs and cultivates positive results.

This style seems to be very popular during this season?

Arima Guixiang looked down at the script, trying not to make eye contact with Kei Fujiwara.

It's not that she is embarrassed. She comes from a family of performers and has been on stage with her father since she was very young. She has absolutely excellent professional psychological qualities, but not everyone is like her.

Many newcomers who face the camera for the first time often have sweaty palms, itchy scalp, and stuttering when reciting their lines. For an actor, the biggest technical difficulty is not to understand the emotions of the character, but to face the camera and dozens of jobs. The staff is not nervous.

Kei Fujiwara is not even counted as a passer-by actor, he was caught by a temporary spot, and there are still some acquaintances around him, so his mentality must be more nervous. Arima Guixiang hoped that he would adjust his mentality and try to avoid eye contact so as not to make him nervous.

Many rookie male actors have a problem with their tongues swollen when they first acted with her, and she is also very helpless about this.

However, after reciting the lines for a while, Arima Keika found that Fujiwara Kei's voice was very magnetic, and the rhythm when reciting the lines was also very accurate, which made him feel a bit like a stage actor.

She was a little surprised, and subconsciously looked at Kei Fujiwara, only to find that Kei Fujiwara was staring at her.
