Tokyo Literary Godfather

In the end, Ken Nagasawa did not give any definite answer, but left Mizunami Production Company with his agent.

Sitting in the car, Nagasawa Ken seemed to be thinking seriously. His agent answered a call, said something, and looked happy.

After hanging up the phone, Nagasawa Ken asked: "What's wrong? Whose phone number is it?"

"On the side of Fushan TV." The agent said with a smile: "I would like to add that it is the Yuejiu team. Do you remember auditioning for a role half a month ago? After thinking about it, the creative team thinks you are more suitable. this role."

"This way..." Nagasawa Ken didn't seem very surprised, but seemed to be thinking about something. If it were other actors, they would probably be cheering at this moment. After all, this is a Yuejiu drama, and it is the most popular column in the broadcasting industry.

"Didn't you always want to transform? Producer Shimizu of Fukuyama TV is willing to give you this opportunity. This Yuejiu drama is a medical drama. I watched the content. It is very good. I think it is not inferior to Mr. Fujiwara's work. The role is also very suitable for you. How about it? Should you come down?" asked the manager.

"Medical drama...is it the same type as "The White Tower"?" Nagasawa Ken asked.

The agent shrugged: "It should be, but no one has read the script of "The White Tower", and they don't know what the specific content is. It's not that I don't trust Mr. Fujiwara's ability, it's just that scripts that I haven't read always make people feel uncomfortable. I'm a little uneasy, what if it's a drama with more promotion than content? Even Kei Fujiwara may not be invincible..."

Speaking of this, he paused for a while, and then said: "What's more, I think what Ms. Okada said seems to have some truth, Mr. Fujiwara seems to be more inclined to choose Miyata Takara, there is no way, who made them old acquaintances? "

Ken Nagasawa knew that the manager was deliberately taking care of his emotions, so he didn't say anything. He also knew that as a competitor, Miyata Takara's chances of winning and advantages were higher than his own, not just because of his friendship with Kei Fujiwara. Acting is indeed one aspect. Nagasawa Ken also admits in his heart that Miyata Takara's acting skills are better than his own. If it is that kind of deep and complicated role, Miyata Takara will indeed handle it better than himself.

"Wait first... I'll think about it again..." Nagasawa Ken said.

The agent just thought Nagasawa Ken was not giving up, and wanted to wait for news about the casting of "The White Tower", so he didn't say anything at the moment.

In fact, no matter who he cooperates with, it is a good choice for Nagasawa Ken. One Fujiwara drama, nine dramas a month, they are all coveted pie in the industry.

However, this is also because of Ken Nagasawa's popularity and acting skills. For an actor whose popularity is still at a high level, he has already begun to think about transformation, and it can also reflect that this person has a clear understanding of his own development. He is not the kind of artist who is mindless and follows the crowd.

The agent did not force Nagasawa Ken to make a choice at the moment, but just said: "Tomorrow, Fukuyama Station will ask you to audition for a second time. No matter what, why don't you go first?"

"Yeah." Nagasawa nodded.

After "White Tower" auditioned many actors, including almost all Mesozoic actors in the entertainment industry, the creative team of "White Tower" stayed up late to watch almost all the audition videos, and finally chose Two people were selected, Miyata Takaharu and another Mesozoic actor.

In fact, the choice of Miyata Takaharu was not Kei Fujiwara's will. On the contrary, Kei Fujiwara was almost not deeply involved in the drama "The White Tower". Instead, he tried to leave it to Nishimura Taro and others to take full responsibility. It was also Nishimura Taro and others who made the final decision. .

Now three dramas are running simultaneously, "Aqian is Coming", "White Tower" and "Blue Life and Death Love". "A Qian Is Here" is a morning drama, and the broadcast time and audience of the other two dramas are different, so it is not easy to compare them together. However, the broadcast times of the other two dramas have been set. "The White Tower" is scheduled to be broadcast on Saturdays at 8 o'clock in the autumn and winter time slots, and the broadcasting station is TTV; "Blue Life and Death" is scheduled to be broadcast in the autumn and winter time slots. It is broadcast at nine o'clock on Friday, and the broadcast station is Fanxing Channel. It is broadcast in two seasons, ten episodes per season.

Although the two do not meet head-on in terms of time slots, and one is a professional drama and the other is a trend drama, there are also differences in the audiences they target. However, after all, they are both prime-time programs, so even though the two production teams belong to the same company, there is still a faint sense of comparison.

Even as time went by, sparks began to fly between the two sides.

Because the personnel composition of the two dramas are quite different, the relationship between them is not particularly close. Most of the members of "White Tower" are members of the original Yuejiu team, and the old man who started the Yuejiu career with Fujiwara Kei, Taro Nishimura; and most of the people in "Blue Life and Death" are people who have never been together before. How about the employees of Mizunami Production who have worked with Kei Fujiwara, as well as the newly recruited members, represented by Juri Okada and Satsuki Miyabe.

Moreover, since the two dramas were launched at the same time, there will inevitably be competition for resources within the company. For example, Nishimura Taro just fell in love with an executive director and wanted him to join his team for filming, but the next day he found out that this person had gone to "Blue" The crew of "The Love of Life and Death" inevitably felt angry, so they began to target the crew of "The Love of Life and Death" intentionally or unintentionally, and snatched over an actress that Okada Shuri had been dating for a long time.

But Juri Okada was not as exhausted as Taro Nishimura, and came directly to confront him. In a hurry, he came to the planning room of "The White Tower", threw his bag directly on the table, and shouted: "Nishimura-kun is Do you have any dissatisfaction with me?" The battle officially started.

So the two teams had their first verbal conflict, but it was mediated by Yui Mizuhara.

Therefore, the two teams now look at each other more or less unfavorably. The people in the Hara Yuejiu team feel that they are the ones who have accompanied Fujiwara Kei all the way, the meritorious service and the elders, and they resolutely gave up the recruitment of the five majors. Stay in the water wave making. Regardless of whether their loyalty or ability points are full, they are the real mainstay of Shuibo Production.

The crew members of "Blue Life and Death" believe that they, the so-called elders of the Yuejiu team, are all guys who have achieved enlightenment by themselves, and it is just good luck. When Fujiwara Kei formed a team within Mizuha Productions, many people missed it because they had other work arrangements at the time, which gave these guys an advantage. There are many people in Shuibo Productions who missed out on the original Yue Jiu drama. They spent countless late nights sitting on the bed slapping their thighs and regretting it. Now they are even more annoyed when they hear this group of people who took advantage of it and behaved like this.

Under such an environment, the fighting spirit of the two teams was stimulated. When filming works in the past, most of the crews were determined to be number one in their time period, and more ambitiously, they were determined to be number one in the entire season or the whole year. But now the two crews are just bent on surpassing each other and stepping on each other. .

It doesn’t matter which time period or quarter is first. On the other hand, I also feel that it is difficult for Fujiwara drama to lose at the same time. Among all Kei Fujiwara's past dramas, more than 90% of them have won the first place in the same period. The consequence of raising the threshold is to be the first place in the same period. For the employees of Mizunami Production, it seems that it is not Worth the excitement.

And when the news came out that Shuibo Production was preparing a new work, the crew who had originally planned to release the new work in the autumn suddenly became numb.

Three! Three parts! Kei Fujiwara, are you sick? For a company the size of a pebble, can you bear to take so many shots at once?

Fukuyamadai producer Shimizu Asaki couldn't help but cursed.
