Tokyo Literary Godfather

"Teacher Fujiwara, thank you for your hard work." Kei Fujiwara just walked into Mizunami Production and met a somewhat bald director head-on. The other person bent down and said hello.

"Yu Quan-san." Fujiwara Kei nodded, "How are you doing recently?"

"Thanks to you." The visitor's name was Uizumi Konaki, a producer and director of the special photography department of Mizuha Productions. At this time, he pushed up his glasses and said with a smile: "The ratings of "Hanzawa Naoki" are now overwhelming. Congratulations to Mr. Fujiwara for winning another battle with the outside world."

"It's all the joint efforts of colleagues." Kei Fujiwara smiled as he walked into the company with Yu Quanming. Fujiwara Kei had not seen him for a long time. I heard that he went to Matsunichi Pictures to jointly shoot a special photo film a while ago. . However, I heard that the budget for that movie was limited and the production was rough. It would not be shown in the theater and would only be made into a video tape for sale.

Now that the filming of that movie is completed, he is back to Shuibo Production, and he is busy in the company these days, seeming to be assembling a crew.

"Is Yu Quan-sang busy with anything recently?" Kei Fujiwara was holding coffee and chatting with Yu Quanming as he walked.

"Hey, what else can I do, I'd better take pictures of my monsters." Yu Quan Jinming said with a smile, pointed upwards with his finger and said: "The above recently assigned an urgent task, asking me to make "Mechanical Monster Naga" The sequel of "The Movie" is currently being assembled. Alas, but having said that, the company is really lacking in talent right now. It is really difficult to find a group of people who really love special photography and have enough professionalism to shoot. "

Fujiwara Kei didn't speak. At this time, Yu Quanming raised his head and glanced at Fujiwara Kei. He suddenly realized that he had made a mistake and quickly pursed his lips.

In the past two years, the brain drain of Mizunami Production has been serious. Many people have criticized President Uchida, thinking that he has not focused on running the company at all.

Therefore, Yu Izumi Konaki's casual remark about "the company's talent is in decline" was more or less intended to vent his dissatisfaction with the president. Kei Fujiwara did not respond, which made Yu Izumi Konaki suddenly realize that he should not say such words to others.

In the workplace, every pair of ears is a radar and every mouth is a trumpet. It is undoubtedly dangerous to complain about your boss in front of your colleagues.

At this time, Fujiwara Kei suddenly smiled: "You're right, Yu Quansang, there are indeed many problems in the company now. In this environment, we have to build a team. Thank you for your hard work."

"Those who eat this bowl of rice can only do their best..."

With that said, Yu Quanjinming raised his eyes and glanced at Fujiwara Kei. Fujiwara Kei seemed to deliberately reassure him, so he followed his words. Of course, he might not have noticed this and felt the same as himself.

But no matter what the situation is, Fujiwara Keito is different from Yuizumi Konaki, who is careful about every word he says. When he talks about the company's problems, he doesn't even bother to lower his voice.

Also, Kei Fujiwara is still walking sideways even in Fukuyamadai, let alone production in Mizunami. What's wrong with you? Even if President Uchida was present and heard Fujiwara Kei say this, he would have to pretend that he didn't hear anything.

And now in the entire Mizunami Production, no one is more suitable to say this than Kei Fujiwara. The situation of Mizuha Productions is not optimistic, but the Yuejiu team led by Kei Fujiwara, who is in the name of the company, is an invincible presence in the broadcasting industry.

It's like a high school where 90% of people can't go to college. If a top talent comes in, even if he curses in front of the principal, the school leaders will find it particularly touching.

Thinking of this, Yu Quanjin secretly smiled bitterly in his heart, it is really enviable... This is Naoki Hansawa in reality...

After separating from Izumi Konaki, Fujiwara Kei returned to the office but was a little confused. Wasn't it said that Mizunami Production was about to be sold? Why are you suddenly launching a new project at this time? And it’s also a popular tokusatsu series like “Mechanical Monster Naga”.

In this world of Japan, special photography films are also very popular. The first large-scale application of Japan's special photography technology was during World War II. At that time, many film companies were responding to the government's national policy films and glorifying acts of aggression.

At that time, many film talents used special photography technology to shoot aerial battle scenes with war themes. The visual effects were very realistic. The model of Pearl Harbor even deceived the Americans for a time, so that after the war, the Americans almost treated these people as war criminals.

After the war, many filmmakers who were proficient in special photography technology no longer needed to shoot national films, so they began to think about new application areas of special photography technology.

In 1954, a piece of news caught the attention of these filmmakers: a fishing boat named Fukuryu Maru was affected by the U.S. undersea hydrogen bomb test, and all 23 crew members on board died of atomic disease.

As the only country on earth that has been bombed by atomic bombs, Japan has special feelings for such large nuclear weapons. But these feelings were probably negative. At the same time, rumors that atomic bomb radiation would turn people into monsters also became rampant.

In fact, at this time, there were already movies featuring giant monsters in the United States, and a group of Japanese filmmakers took this idea forward and shot Japan's first monster movie, and also invented a leather case. special photography gameplay.

Once the movie was released, it immediately caused a sensation in the country. At that time, the shock that this special feature film brought to the audience was absolutely no less than the visual shock that "Avatar" brought to the audience when it first came out, or even worse. Since then, monster films have become a well-known cultural business card in Japan, and special effects films have become one of the favorite types of film and television for many Japanese teenagers.

Mizunami Production also started out by shooting special effects films. The most famous special effects TV series is the "Mechanical Monster Naga" series. The core of the story of this series is similar to that of Ultraman, except that the characters in this series are also monsters who are on the side of justice. But according to the plot, it is a mechanical monster created by a genius scientist and controlled by the protagonist, which is a bit like EVA.

The last part of "Mechanical Monster Naga" came out four years ago. It achieved good ratings at that time, but it failed to control costs well, resulting in almost losing money, so this series was dormant for four years.

But now President Uchida intends to restart the series. Is it possible that the news that Shuibo Productions will be sold is fake news? Or is it that Uchidakura hopes to make a successful film to increase the stock price of Mizuna Production? Can he sell his shares at a high price?

Except for what Mizuhara Yui told Fujiwara Kei once last time, he has not heard anywhere else that Mizuha Productions is about to sell off its shares, so it can only be regarded as a rumor now.
