Movie Queen Development Plan

Chapter 164: Chapter 161 The Best Female Ghost



Nanaya's idea of making Master Li the president of Tsuburaya was not groundless.

In Nanaya's memory, since Tsuburaya experienced turmoil in 2003, the longest-serving president was Shinichi Ooka, who was a Tsuburaya photographer.

Basically, for various reasons, other previous presidents were not able to stay in the position for long.

From this we can see that even if the rule of the Tsuburaya family has ended, the exclusion of outsiders within Tsuburaya is still very serious.

Therefore, Li Wenshu's identity as a veteran employee of Tsuburaya will make it easier for Nanaya and Washimine to control Tsuburaya and stabilize it.

Of course, Nanaya chose Master Li not just because he was the person closest to him in Tsuburaya.

The more important reason is that Li Wenshu is a disciple of Koichi Takano.

This gives Li Wenshu's creative concept a bit of the flavor of the old Tsuburaya, which may allow the reborn Tsuburaya to avoid the path of simply relying on nostalgia to sell toys in its original history.

And with the support of Hiroichi Takano, I believe Li Wenshu will be able to control Tsuburaya more easily.

Nanaya had already told Lao Li about this plan when Lao Li first complained to Nanaya about the internal struggles in Tsuburaya.

But both Master Li himself and his teacher Koichi Takano have a certain degree of rejection of this matter itself.

They may be a little disappointed with the Tsuburaya family, but it is still difficult for them to take this step of suddenly leading Tsuburaya themselves.

Nanaya did not force Master Li to make a decision. It would be best if Master Li could agree.

But if Li Wenshu disagreed, Nanaya would not lose anything. He also did not want to affect their friendship by forcing his friend to do something he did not like.

After all, although Li Wenshu is Nanaya's top choice, he is not the only choice.

Other senior executives of Tsuburaya can also be employed, such as Morishima Tsuneyuki and Ooka Shinichi, who were presidents in the past...

Anyway, this matter is not urgent. After giving Li Wenshu a reminder, Nanaya shifted the topic to the special effects requirements of "Kara no Kyoukai".

Although the special effects requirements for the second and third parts of "Kara" are definitely lower than those for "Goblin Slayer", it is absolutely impossible to get away with it casually.

Therefore, Nanaya's special effects requirement for Tsuburaya is that he hopes the special effects of "Kara no Kyoukai" will be at least one level higher than those of the "Ultraman" movie.

"Your request is a bit difficult."

Li Wenshu looked at the list of requirements listed by Nanaya and replied, "Although our technology has indeed made considerable progress compared to the past two years, if the level of special effects you expect is higher than that of Oss's theatrical version of Blue Planet, we need time."

Nanaya said casually: "Of course, so I hope you can prepare before the shooting starts, especially the distorted special effects designed in the second part. I hope Tsuburaya can provide the special effects modeling as soon as possible."

"Let me try."

Master Li turned around and sat in his seat: "Your project has saved my life. It has finally allowed me and my men to escape from the suffering during this period of time."

"Has it gotten this serious?" Nanaya felt that perhaps the internal strife within Tsuburaya was even more intense than he had imagined.

"It's ten times more serious than you think." Li Wenshu sighed, "No matter whether what you said will become a reality, I hope this meaningless struggle will end soon, otherwise Tsuburaya will be destroyed in their hands sooner or later."

In an old cafe on the outskirts of Tokyo, the original interior decoration has been renovated to look brand new.

The two girls were sitting face to face, drinking coffee. They were smiling and talking to each other, looking like ordinary friends communicating.

Only the few cameras set up around them told outsiders that this was not just a gathering of girls, but a play.

The second chapter of "Kara no Kyoukai", "Remaining Sense of Pain", officially started filming in mid-September 2002.

The crew rented this small cafe called "Happy Time" and after a little renovation, they started filming the first scene in the plan -

The scene of Hana and Fujino drinking coffee together.

Most of the crew members of "Remaining Sense of Pain", whether actors or behind-the-scenes staff, are made up of old members.

Compared to the just-concluded "Goblin Slayer", "Remaining Sense of Pain" can really only be regarded as a small project.

According to the project plan, the crew has been divided into two groups.

One group is Nanaya leading most of the actors to shoot the plot, and this [Happy Time] cafe is their first stop.

The other group was led by Shonan Rantaro to several areas to shoot landscape shots such as bridges and sunsets without any actors appearing in the shots.

For Shonan, who had done a similar job in "Goblin Slayer", this job was too easy.

The only regret is that there are almost no beautiful women accompanying this job.

However, this was specially arranged by Nanaya.

Except for the coffee shop scene, Nanaya planned to complete all other indoor shots in Lin Bao's studio as much as possible.

When "Overlooking the Scenery" was first being filmed, the crew was so poor that they had to keep everything simple.

Now that I have money, of course I want to do everything to perfection.

As for the actors, as the only new character with an important role, Yoshinaga Yukari, who plays Asagami Fujino, is very cooperative with the studio.

He had no objection to the 950,000 yen salary offered by the studio and accepted it directly.

Although Nanaya originally expected that if Sayuri Yoshinaga's niece requested it, he could increase his salary to 1.2 million yen.

Seeing that the other party was so tactful, Nanaya didn't say much, and was even very polite when assigning work to Miss Yoshinaga Yukari.

Just like the previous projects, Nanaya will participate in the preparations throughout and control the progress of the entire film.

However, the specific and trivial work was handled by Subaru Ikeda, Ryougi Ori and others respectively.

The second season of "The Solitary Gourmet" has been completed and is currently being broadcast on TBS TV's late-night slot.

The second season had higher ratings than the first, in addition to the fact that fans of the first season continued to follow the show.

During this year, "The Solitary Gourmet" has accumulated a lot of new fans through word of mouth and comic series.

The second season of "The Solitary Gourmet" continues the style of the first season. In addition to inheriting the advantages of the first season, with the improvement of the weaving level, the quality of the series has also improved a lot.

Although the second season has not yet been fully aired, TBS TV has decided to renew the show for a third season.

This was a big surprise for Ori. Compared to the loss at the end of the first season, he now looked full of confidence.

After finishing work on "The Solitary Gourmet", he confidently took over the work of assistant director of "Remaining Sense of Pain" and "Paradox Spiral".

The first thing he had to do was to bring back the original actors of "Overlooking the Scenery" one by one.

Except for Ori who moved behind the scenes, the other actors who starred in "Overlooking the Scenery" have developed quite well in the entertainment industry.

The guy who plays Kokutou Mikiya relies on his gentle face to play the role of a good guy in various movies and TV series.

The older sister who played Miss Aozaki gained popularity by appearing in various Japanese dramas, although her popularity is still not as high as that of Ori, who only appeared in one movie.

As for the actors who played Hana and Araya Souren, due to their short screen time, they have hardly accumulated much popularity and are still playing minor roles in various theaters.

In fact, the person who benefited the most from "Overlooking the Scenery" besides Nanaya was actually the actor who played Fujou Kirie - because Ori did not continue to work in the entertainment industry, he did not convert his popularity into substance.

The woman named Sugihara (I forgot her name, Nanaya) has now become a very famous female ghost professional in the Japanese film industry.

Because his appearance in white clothes and black hair in "The View" left a deep impression on the audience, Sugihara became a frequent visitor to various horror film sets.

You have to know that although horror films rarely have direct box office hits, their offline revenue has always been very good.

In addition, due to its low cost, it is a project that major investors are more willing to invest in.

If there are one or two films that hit the right notes with the audience, they might become box office dark horses.

The Japanese film market in particular has an unusual fondness for horror films, and there have always been many projects of this type.

In fact, strictly speaking, Nanaya's "Kara no Kyoukai" series can also be regarded as an urban fantasy in the horror film category.

It's just that Nanaya's shooting technique makes "Kara no Kyoukai" closer to the type of special effects commercial film.

It's a pity that the timeline of Nanaya's version of "Remaining Sense of Pain" is after "Overlooking the Scenery", otherwise this female ghost could have made two more cameo appearances instead of just living in everyone's memories.

"Director Kiryu, you're really going too far."

In response to Nanaya's statement, Sugihara pouted.

Nanaya laughed heartlessly and said, "Well~ I just think it's too early for your character to die."

Sugihara was just joking with Nanaya, and she wasn't really angry.

"What a shame! Even if Director Kiryu wants to change the setting, I don't have the time."

"I will be joining the crew of Director Takashi Shimizu next month. This was the schedule we agreed on half a year ago."

"If Director Kiryu hadn't just made a few cameo appearances, I wouldn't have been able to take this job."

"Shimizu Takashi?"

Nanaya had some impression of this Japanese horror film director.

[Could it be "The Grudge"? But it's almost time. But is it the Kayako version of Fujou Kirie? I feel like the style has become a little strange. ]
