Tokyo Literary Godfather

Chapter 399 Public opinion reverses

The counterattack in the field of public opinion may be late, but it will not be absent.

The entertainment industry in every country and in every era has proven this.

It's too common for the entertainment industry to quarrel, even in China's cultural environment where peace is the most important thing and doesn't like to put conflicts on the surface, this kind of thing is unavoidable. In comparison, in the European and American entertainment circles, two people often scold each other in front of the camera.

For example, if A and B have a conflict, and the right and wrong of cause and effect are not clear, the matter will be a mess, and the fans of both parties will quarrel. At this time, the person with high popularity or high status is often People have the upper hand. For example, if A has a better reputation than B, B will often be ridiculed and attacked by public opinion.

But this often happens. A year later, one of B's ​​works becomes popular, and the number of fans increases sharply, so the dispute that year is brought out again, and at this time, the situation is often reversed...

Now Nakadai Hideji has experienced such a two-pole reversal.

A year ago, "White Night Journey" failed miserably, losing both box office and reputation, becoming a failed adaptation of a classic work. Of course, Nakadai Hideki was also criticized, but he cleverly used public relations methods to turn the biggest target of accusation into Arima Katsura.

After all, this is also a tradition in the film industry. When a movie hits the market, the main actors are the ones most blamed, and they even have to apologize publicly.

At that time, Katsura Arima did say in front of the media that the failure of the film was all due to her poor performance, and she was sorry for her colleagues on the crew and fans...

Nakadai Yingji's biggest responsibility became choosing the wrong actor to play the protagonist. As for his misunderstanding of the original work and unreasonable adaptation, it has become an internal discussion among some professionals. In the eyes of ordinary audiences, this is still an excellent director, but he was deceived by a crappy actress. .

After the love affair between Arima Katsura and Fujiwaratani was exposed, it seemed that some of Nakadai Hideyoshi's grievances were washed away. Some gossip entertainment newspapers even speculated that the original heroine of "White Night Walk" was not Arima Katsura, but Nakadai Hideyoshi. There were better candidates for the lead role, but Kei Fujiwara forced his lover to play the role of Yukiho Karasawa. This ruined his own classic work of fiction.

Therefore, Kei Fujiwara needs to bear the main responsibility for the failure of "White Night Walk"! It was his irresponsible attitude towards his work that caused this tragedy of adaptation!

It is unknown whether there was any deliberate promotion and guidance behind such remarks.

But he is indeed happy to see such a speech environment.

The failure of "White Night Walk" did not have a great negative impact on him at first. He even got the opportunity to shoot a new film project shortly after the film was released. Songni Pictures is still willing to inject money into his filming.

At this moment, Zhong Daiyingji flipped through the entertainment page of a newspaper, his facial features a little distorted.

The public opinion in the newspaper has completely reversed. Due to the success of "Confession", it not only proved that Kei Fujiwara's works can make good movies, but also proved that Katsura Arima has good acting skills and can act well in suspense films. Of complex characters. In this case, who should bear the main responsibility for the failed adaptation of the classic work "White Night Journey"?

You know, "Confession" is the same as "White Night Journey" to a certain extent. They are both written from a POV point of view, and the entire story is presented through a single perspective of different characters.

Compared with "Confession", the performance of "White Night Walk" is like a zero-score test paper.

An entertainment magazine based on the Spring and Autumn Period has a large column that spares no effort in praising the performance of Kei Fujiwara and Keika Arima. At the same time, it also made a bitter satire on Naka Daiying's original blame-shifting behavior and poor directing work.

"According to incomplete statistics, after the box office performance of "White Night Walk" failed, the deputy director expressed the same attitude on different occasions, that is, the failure of the film was all caused by his choice of wrong actors. More More than ten times.”

"It looks like he is introspecting, but in fact he is shirking responsibility and blaming all the failure of the movie on Arima Keika. But anyone who has actually watched the movie can feel that the movie version of "White Night Journey" is a plot Should the actors be responsible for a broken, confusingly edited, and mediocre movie? Compared to the director’s own performance, the actors’ performance was relatively outstanding.”

"Out of curiosity about this director, I investigated the historical works of this well-known director and found that "White Night Walk" is not his first failed work. This director really does not have many highlight moments, and his best results in history are It only had a box office of about 1.6 billion, less than half of Kei Fujiwara's first film. Most of his works had mediocre results, and once there was a failure, he would express that he had chosen the wrong actor..."

"Here, I sincerely suggest that all actors, if they do not want to become a scapegoat in the future, it is best to be cautious when working with this director."

"The release of "Confession" has exposed director Nakadai's lies about shirking responsibility. In fact, Kei Fujiwara's works are first-rate, whether they are novels or movies. It is a lie that Kei Fujiwara's novels are not suitable for adaptation into movies; and, Arima Guixiang is a poor vase actor and a lie..."

After reading this statement, Nakadai Hideji rolled his eyes in anger. This magazine is a publication of the Spring and Autumn Period, and everyone knows that Kei Fujiwara is now the chief writer of the Spring and Autumn Society, and the Spring and Autumn Period is also one of his main public opinion positions. .

Therefore, he seriously suspected that this article was written under the instruction of Fujiwara Kei, just to retaliate and give him a shot in the arm.

But he had no evidence and really didn't have the courage to question Kei Fujiwara. Even though the other party is both a junior and a junior, the other party now has an industry status that overlooks his own.

Japan's broadcasting industry is not lower than its status in the film industry. The other party is now the undoubted king of the broadcasting industry, the king of ratings that has set records many times, and now its first work in the film industry has achieved astonishing results. It is expected that this person will bring his talents from the broadcast industry to the film industry, and no one doubts that he is fully capable of replicating his achievements in the television industry at film festivals.

Therefore, the other party is fully qualified to look down on him. The younger he is, the more qualified he is. For ordinary people, youth may mean being insignificant and inexperienced, but for a proud man like Fujiwara Kei, it means extraordinary talent and unlimited potential...

The seniority relationship in Japan has the power to overwhelm others naturally, but if the other party is too much higher than you, this trick will not be easy to use...

Therefore, Nakadai Hideji did not dare to ask Fujiwara Kei anything. If Fujiwara Kei really fell out, he would be the one who would suffer the big loss. Not only should we not settle old scores, but we should still greet Fujiwara Kei with a smile when we meet him in the future, and we should smile brightly, so as not to make the other person feel that we are dissatisfied.

I can only swallow the bitterness in my stomach, and then scold these tabloid reporters for their bad behavior of rehashing old scores. It is simply the behavior of a villain!
