Tokyo Literary Godfather

However, what made Yamaguchi Jiyang feel extremely sad was that he actually performed abnormally during a play the next day.

Originally he had a simple line, but when he was reading the line, I don't know whether it was because he was too excited and slept late last night or for some reason. He actually stuttered twice in the middle of such a short line. The assistant director just didn't have much patience with him. He simply changed the character immediately and he became a character without lines again.

Moreover, the arrangements for his scenes are getting more and more marginal. In order to save time, the crew is divided into two groups A and B. Naturally, Kei Fujiwara personally supervises the main scenes in group A, which are usually related to the protagonist; group B is generally They are all supervised by the first assistant director, and they are often scenes in which the protagonist does not appear and are not particularly important.

Of course, Yamaguchi Tsuyoshi wanted to continue to impress Kei Fujiwara, but he was sent to Group B as a passerby. He became uninterested and looked forward to returning to Group A again.

After finishing work every day, I look in the direction of Group A, like a watch stone.

However, Huangtian paid off and finally gave him another chance.

This scene was supervised by Kei Fujiwara himself. Yamaguchi Tsuyoshi played a background role. This time he prepared in advance and added a lot of scenes for himself. When the filming started, the whole person kept making small movements behind his back, which looked exaggerated and funny. Before Kei Fujiwara could say anything, the assistant director standing near the monitor was already sweating.

He cursed in his heart: "Is this guy really an idiot? Is there such a guy in Japan who doesn't care about people's life and death? I saw it today."

Fujiwara Kei didn't say anything. After shouting "stuck", he glanced at the assistant director and then at Miyata Takaharu.

Miyata Takaliang turned his face away in shame, probably too embarrassed to continue begging for mercy.

The crew members found Yamaguchi Tsuyoshi and then finished filming the scene.

The second assistant director called Yamaguchi Tsuyoshi out, and did not get angry at him. He just pinched Yamaguchi and said: "Oh, you are such a headache... Why do you do such a thing? Forget it, you don't need to tell me. I'm sorry, I don't want to know now. You always have your real reasons, but you will make up other reasons to deceive me. Maybe it's a personality problem, or maybe you have some misunderstanding about the job of filming."

Seeing Yamaguchi Jiyang's silence, the assistant director seemed to feel his loss. Because he knew that he and Miyata Takaharu were acquaintances, he couldn't directly scold him. Instead, he took out the cigarette case and handed him a cigarette.

"I know you want to achieve success as an actor, but you are looking for the wrong method. I have already communicated with the personnel of your original company. Your role is over, so go back first."

Yamaguchi Jiyang's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe that he was sent back. After a while, he asked: "Then... what did Director Fujiwara say?"

"Director Fujiwara didn't say anything." The assistant director said, "But don't have any illusions. It's just because you didn't say anything that it's more troublesome. Anyone who knows Director Fujiwara knows that if his subordinates make mistakes, he can call him over. Thank God for being scolded and criticized. If nothing is said... it means that the process of terminating the contract or being reassigned has already begun."

"By the way, you and Miyata-san used to be friends, right?"

Yamaguchi Jiyang swallowed, but nodded.

"Miyata-san has also begged for you before, so even if we send you back to your original company, we won't say anything more to your agent, and we will urge him to arrange other crew jobs for you, but there are I got a new job, but I must never do something like this that affects the shooting. Really, I think we have cooperated before, remember you were very professional before..."

After the assistant director left, Yamaguchi Jiyang sat on a nearby stone pillar and smoked in pain. Something went wrong, but he didn't understand where it went wrong.

Is it wrong to imitate Takara Miyata? It shouldn't be. This guy was just like him now, very out of touch and very embarrassing. Although many people laughed at him at that time, he was successful. I successfully starred in the male lead of a hit drama and became a king-level figure. Why can’t I do the same?

Looking at the crew members who were continuing to work not far away, Yamaguchi Jiyang felt confused.

No, I can't leave the crew of "Infernal Affairs". It took a lot of effort to join such an excellent crew. This is my chance... There will be more of those kinds of characters showing their faces here anyway, and after all, it's Kei Fujiwara's movie, so it must be Being popular and showing up more will make other more discerning supervisors take notice of me and let me star in movies.

But now I am not allowed to join the group...

The sun was setting in the west, and at a certain moment when the sunlight was shining down, a strange idea suddenly came to his mind. Then he stood up from the stone pier and walked towards a camera stiffly like a robot.

…

Kei Fujiwara sat behind the monitor and stared at the monitor's screen with a serious expression.

"Look again." Kei Fujiwara said.

The staff quickly rewinded the video and played back what they had just filmed.

Fujiwara Kei rubbed the mug in his hand, touched his chin, and then said: "Look again."

The staff immediately followed the instructions without any hesitation and imitated the video again.

On the side, Ken Nagasawa stood there, not daring to get too close to the monitor. He was so nervous that he even had beads of sweat on his forehead in the winter.

He now finally knows the meaning of Miyata Takaharu's sentence "Supervisor Fujiwara will not put pressure on you directly, but the pressure is invisible."

It is true that Kei Fujiwara is not the kind of director who cannot control his emotions and has a particularly violent temper, but sitting behind the monitor, the majesty emanating from him can still make people breathless.

In addition, every performance segment has extremely high requirements and a very serious professional attitude. So it is possible to perform a scene forty or fifty times. No one dared to raise any objections, thinking that the director was superfluous, and no one even criticized him. After all, the glorious record was enough to make anyone shut up.

As one of the leading actors, Ken Nagasawa's most nervous moment every day is after finishing a scene, waiting for Kei Fujiwara to watch it again and again, and then decide whether to do it all over again.

Every time this time comes, not only the actors are nervous, but the whole team holds their breath, waiting for the result.

Ken Nagasawa plays the role played by Andy Lau in the original "Infernal Affairs", the gangster wearing straw sandals who lurks in the police station. And today's performance is also one of his key scenes, killing his boss with a single shot in the parking lot.

This is actually a late scene, but in the recent period, as Ken Nagasawa has gradually taken over the role, the depression and pain of being an undercover agent are very well expressed. The emotions have been brewing to the extreme, and Fujiwara Kei does not intend to let him vent them slowly, but to release them all at once.

An actor's performance sometimes depends on his condition. Now that you have a good performance and emotional state, don't miss it.

"Very good, passed." After reading this article repeatedly, Kei Fujiwara did not see any shortcomings. The actors' performances and emotions were all perfect.

"Huh~" Both the actors and other staff members all breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.

"But I still have to keep one more, it's hard work." Fujiwara Tani said, this is a habit of Kei Fujiwara and many directors, even if they get a satisfactory shot, let the actors take advantage of the state to shoot again, in case it can be more Okay?

Kei Fujiwara called this behavior "slipping" in his previous life.

Although there was still one more shot to be taken, Nagasawa Ken's spirit had already relaxed, and he was not as nervous as before. He tidied up his clothes, and when he was about to perform again, a staff member from Group B hurried over. Then he said something in the assistant director’s ear.

The assistant director's face also became ugly in an instant. He walked up to Kei Fujiwara and said, "Director Fujiwara, it's not good. The passer-by actor who made trouble on the shooting scene...he smashed the camera. It's that Anqin ang24-290.”
