Tokyo Literary Godfather

Holding a cup of green tea, Shibazaki Hideaki raised his head uncomfortably, then lowered his head again.

He felt more or less uncomfortable... mainly because Kei Fujiwara's smile on the other side was too scary!

Kei Fujiwara was playing with a pen at the moment, and looked at Shibazaki Hideaki with a smile, his eyes were full of pride after he succeeded, just like the proud and arrogant expression of a bully after he violated an innocent girl.

"Shibasaki, welcome." Kei Fujiwara smiled.

"Fujiwara...President." Shibasaki Hideaki said a little uncomfortable, and then sighed, "Oh, I didn't expect this to be the result! I should have known..."

"If I knew I should have come to Mizuna Production with me?" Kei Fujiwara smiled and said, "Indeed, that was a wise choice. Shibazaki, don't worry, the development here will not be weaker than that of Fukuyamadai."

Shibazaki Hideaki sighed again, recalling the various unhealthy atmospheres in the station, the increasingly weak production department and the continuous loss of production talents, and seeing the current prosperous scene of Mizuna Production, he said: "You are right. .”

Shibazaki Hideaki, Mizuhara Yui, and Fujiwara Kei were collectively called the "Three Swordsmen of Moon Nine" by some people in the broadcasting industry. Because the earliest Yuejiu drama "Long Holiday" was produced with a three-person core team, of course, Kei Fujiwara is the core of the core, so he has the highest status.

After Kei Fujiwara became the president of Mizuna Productions, he has not been able to recruit his old partner Hideaki Shibazaki, which has always been a pity. Of course, it's not easy to dig. Hideaki Shibazaki's contract was signed early, and it was still within the contract period last year. Moreover, Hideaki Shibasaki entered the TV station earlier than Kei Fujiwara, and had already relied on Fukuyama TV, so he did not agree to Kei Fujiwara's invitation.

However, after the director was changed and the film school took charge, Shibazaki Hideaki clearly felt that the atmosphere in the stage had deteriorated. And after Kei Fujiwara established himself, he also felt faintly targeted.

Recently, this feeling has become stronger... The reason is that Kei Fujiwara had a bad relationship with some people at Fukuyama Station because of a series of incidents caused by the change of roles midway.

From this, Shibasaki Hideaki felt that some movie parties around him were targeting and ostracizing him more obviously, and some people would even use ostracizing themselves as a means to please the deputy director... because they knew that the deputy director had suffered from Kei Fujiwara, it is said I'm pissed off now.

And it was a humiliation three days ago that made Shibazaki Hideaki really make up his mind to leave. During a departmental gathering, the deputy director suddenly called out his name and asked Shibazaki Hideaki to sing with him and dance with him, and tie a tie on his forehead.

Shibasaki Hideaki has always had a solemn style, and he really couldn't do this kind of singing and dancing. He declined repeatedly, but the deputy director always insisted. Others in the department actually dragged him up from the sofa and tied their ties around his head.

Shibasaki Hideaki didn't move, and almost opened his eyes wide to watch the deputy director sing "Song of Bamboo" with a barbaric accent.

Then, the deputy director squinted at him and said, "Shibasaki, it's because you're so inflexible that you can't make it to the management team. You can only work as a coolie in the crew. Forget it, let's move on to the next song."

Shibazaki Hideaki left without waiting for the show to end, and sat on the toilet in the bathroom for half an hour. During the period, I also heard two colleagues in the station walk into the bathroom, and said with a smile: "Today, the director really vented his anger on us."

"Yeah, what's the reason for that kid Shibazaki, who is obviously at the same time as us, and he used to act like a senior because of Keina Fujiwara, I have long been displeased with him."

"Haha, the group of people who created the miracle on the ninth day of the month are not allowed to shoot the dramas on the ninth day of the month. It's really tragic..."

"What created a miracle on the ninth day of the month? No one awarded me a medal. If it was me back then, I might have been able to shoot "Naoki Hansawa"..."

"In short, no matter what, we have to keep pace with the deputy director. Have you heard? The film company seems to be a little dissatisfied with the main station recently, because it always passively implements the instructions of the head office. I heard that Nobi The president wants to help the deputy station to take the stage... anyway, the performance of the TV station has declined recently, and there is a reason."

"Since this is the case, it is even more important for us to keep pace."

"Bang!"

Shibazaki Hideaki opened the door of the toilet cubicle directly and passed between the two blue-faced people without saying a word.

As he walked, he picked up his mobile phone and dialed Mizuhara Yui's number.

…

"But..." Shibasaki Hideaki hesitated, "To be honest, I still have a contract with Fukuyama Station for more than a year. If they forcibly refuse to transfer the contract, it seems..."

"It doesn't matter, I'll find a way." Fujiwara Kei said.

Unlike Fukuyama National Taiwan University, which engages in personnel struggles and despises production talents, what Mizuno Productions lacks most now is excellent directors, screenwriters and producers. Shibazaki Hideaki, as Fujiwara Kei's old partner, is the most comfortable and smooth to work with. In order to get him, it's not a big deal.

What's more, with the current situation in Fukuyama Terrace, it's not a big deal for Kei Fujiwara to poach a few corners, and it probably won't attract much attention. If Fukuyamadai really values ​​talents now, Shibasaki Hideaki will not be forced to leave.

Sure enough, Fujiwara Kei told this matter to Yoshida Kashi. Yoshida Kashi looked for his previous connections at the TV station and said that he would soon be able to help Shibasaki Hideaki handle a new contract. However, Fukuyamadai was not stupid. He took this opportunity to once again express his desire to cooperate. He had the intention of holding on to Shibasaki Hideaki's contract if he did not agree to cooperate.

But Shibazaki Hideaki's contract is only one year at most, so Fukuyama TV's attitude is not tough, and most of them are begging.

Kei Fujiwara thought for a while and finally said that the second season of "Naoki Hansawa" that they were most concerned about would have to wait for the time being, but the script and broadcast rights of the second issue of "Justice is Victory" could be given to them.

Kei Fujiwara originally wanted to give Fukuyama TV a cheating sequel like the second season of "Homeless Children", but after careful consideration he gave up. It doesn't matter if he cheated the TV station, if it affects his reputation. Oh no.

As for the second season of "Justice Is Victory"... if it is to be continued, if you don't want the ratings to fall to the bottom, you have to use the original cast anyway, right? And the male and female protagonists of "Justice Is Victory" are Miyata Takara and Kono Aoi. Guess who these two listen to?

At that time, I can't find the original cast and actors, so I can't blame me...

But this thought just ran through his mind, and Fujiwara Kei had no intention of really doing this to make things difficult for Fukuyamadai. But it's always good to have a few more trump cards in your hand.

A week later, Hideaki Shibasaki officially joined Mizunami Productions.

However, now that the main creators of the five movies have been taken over one by one, the company has no spare time to shoot another new movie and let him serve as the chief director. Hideaki Shibasaki can only be allowed to take up a casual position as an art director.

It just so happened that "My Sassy Girl" officially started filming not long ago, and the directors Kozo Odagiri and Hideaki Shibasaki have been friends for many years. When Odagiri joined Mizunami, it was Hideaki Shibazaki who introduced him to him. Unexpectedly, things have changed, and now Hideaki Shibazaki has also come to Mizunami, and by accident, he has become Odagiri's "junior" in this company.

The two have known each other for many years and have worked in a studio before, so they have a tacit understanding. After Shibasaki Hideaki read the script of "My Sassy Girl", he liked it very much and officially joined the crew.

Time passed like water, and by mid-March, the financial tsunami that Kei Fujiwara expected had still not arrived.
