Chapter 545 Bad Tradition

The movie "Infernal Affairs" has also entered its official promotion period. Takaharu Miyata suddenly seemed to be the busiest artist in Japan.

First, I finished the filming of "Infernal Affairs", and then went to the crew of "Victory is Justice" non-stop. After less than two months of filming, it was the promotion period of "Infernal Affairs" and I had to participate in various promotional activities. .

Naturally, the production bureau of Fukuyama Television was not willing to let people go and delay the filming. Kono Aoi had already gone to Italy to participate in the Venice Film Festival, and now one of the leading actors was going to take leave. So could the TV series be filmed?

But in fact, before filming this TV series, Mizunami and Fukuyama had already reached a verbal agreement, that is, during the promotion period of "Infernal Affairs", the actors must be allowed to leave the group to cooperate with the promotion.

Although Fukuyamadai agreed at the time, they were a little unhappy when the time came. After all, they did not participate in the movie "Infernal Affairs". No matter how well the movie sells, it has nothing to do with Fukuyamadai.

However, since there is already an agreement, even though it is verbal, it is not easy to just refuse to let people go due to face reasons. So I can only give hints to the actors, hoping that Miyata Takaharu will focus more on the TV station. The movie has already been filmed anyway, so there is no need to be too deeply involved.

However, what embarrassed the TV station production bureau was that Takaharu Miyata didn't seem to "understand" their hints or even pay attention to them. After "Infernal Affairs" entered the promotion period, I directly took leave to promote it.

This embarrassed the production bureau. After all, no actor in the broadcast industry dares not to buy the favor of the TV station, even the most famous actors are no exception. But Miyata Takaharu didn't buy it. In the final analysis, it was because Mizunami Productions seemed to have a greater reputation in the hearts of current actors.

It is also incredible that a medium-sized production company has a higher priority in the minds of actors than a TV station. However, in the current Japanese broadcasting industry, exactly this paradoxical scene has occurred.

This approach is actually inconsistent with the usual approach of Miyata Takaharu, who is recognized in the industry as a dedicated Mesozoic actor. Generally, I will not allow myself to take on two projects that may conflict in time. Even if there is a conflict, I will give priority to the project I am shooting.

And the reason why this time is so abnormal, the crew almost knows the reason...the atmosphere has become rotten, and Sato Mia's various uncooperative and perfunctory actions have made other actors lose the motivation to stick to professional ethics. In this case, Just let them rot together. No one cares about the quality of the work anyway.

Bad trends cannot get started, otherwise they will get out of control and spread like flames on weeds.

This financial crisis has once again dealt a blow to Japanese society. The most affected are foreign trade companies, real estate and banks. The impact on the broadcasting industry is not that great. On the contrary, some people in the film and television industry still have some ill-intentioned expectations that maybe the film and television industry will become more prosperous.

After all, the depression caused by the Plaza Accord actually promoted the development of the television industry. This has made many people realize that social depression will actually promote the prosperity of the cultural and entertainment industry to a certain extent.

Of course, it is not completely without impact. Take Matsuri Pictures, for example. The funds for many film and television projects were directly cut off, and there was also a company-wide layoff, eliminating nearly 30% of the positions.

Kei Fujiwara also learned a thing or two about the specific reasons from Eiji Shirai, mainly due to the impact of the economic situation in Southeast Asia. Matsunichi Pictures does have a lot of investments in Southeast Asia, many of which were facilitated by Nobi Shisuke. His investments were a bit too radical. This kind of radical approach will either lead to great success or great failure.

In the early days when Thailand's offshore financial business was just established, Matsuri did make a lot of money from investments outside the film and television industry, but now it has finally ushered in the moment of great failure.

Although Matsunichi Pictures should be able to survive due to its strong accumulation, the same cannot be said for Nobi Shisuke.

When Eiji Shirai talked about this incident, he was more or less gloating about it.

At this moment, Kei Fujiwara's cell phone received a call from Ohno Nagaharu. His voice was particularly excited: "Fujiwara, "The Embalmer" has entered the main competition!"

The Venice Film Festival has multiple competition units. In addition to the main competition unit, there are also Horizon Units, Future Lion Units, etc. Each unit has its own awards. For example, the People's Choice Award and the Best Documentary Award are not part of the main competition.

The most valuable awards are for the main competition, such as the Best Film Award, which is the Golden Lion Award; and the runner-up awards: Silver Lion Award; Best Director, Best Actor and Actor, Best Screenplay, etc. There is also a best film in the Horizon section, but this is not a Golden Lion award, and it is not the same as the best film in the main competition section.

"Congratulations, Ohno." Fujiwara Keiya was extremely happy. Being able to break into the main competition is already a great achievement, and Ohno Nagaharu is still a new director. It would be even more amazing if he could win one or two more awards.

Although the hope is slim, it is not completely impossible... After all, this film won an Oscar in the parallel world, which is no less than your Golden Lion Award.

Although Kei Fujiwara was not very optimistic that this movie would win the Golden Lion, it came out on top even though everyone was not optimistic about it... Isn't that what novels are all about?

Ohno Nagaharu was extremely excited when he heard this. In any case, after breaking into the main competition section of the Golden Lion Award, his identity as a director was firmly embedded in him and could no longer be shaken. Let’s see what happens next.

…

""Meteor Garden" has come to a successful conclusion!"

"Ms. Chai, congratulations. You are indeed the most outstanding female producer of China Television... no, the most outstanding young producer!"

"The average rating of 6.7%... is really amazing. I wiped my glasses several times for fear that I might have seen it wrong. It is true that generations of talents are coming out!"

"Please take good care of me in the future..."

Last night, the finale of "Meteor Garden" aired, one of the highest achievements of a local TV show in Taiwan: a sellout crowd.

In the parallel world, the first time this word was associated with a TV series was when "Shanghai Beach" was broadcast. In order to show the popularity of this TV series, newspaper reporters used this idiom to describe it. It means that during the broadcast of this TV series, no one wanted to hang out on the street, and everyone ran home to watch TV.

"Meteor Garden" is no less popular in Taiwan, and using this word to describe it is not an exaggeration at all.

The entire island of Taiwan has been caught up in the "F4" craze. The actress who plays Shancai and the four male actors who play F4 have become the most popular stars in Taiwan this summer. The peripheral products of "Meteor Garden" are in short supply locally. The F4 photo album alone has sold 300,000 copies. This is only in Taiwan, and it has only been released for about a month.
