The publicity and distribution are done by ourselves, which of course is to tell the theater chain that you can't get the money.

When Toho and Toei's representatives heard this, they both had unhappy looks on their faces.

The atmosphere of the meeting was certainly tense.

Kameyama Chihiro immediately made a gesture of calmness, he turned to Kusano Yuki and said, "Team Leader Kusano, I know that you are young and vigorous, but the current situation is like this, you don't want to be rash." ”

Yuki Kusano smiled slightly when he heard this, "Director, I'm not acting rashly, it's very simple, if Toho and Toei can increase the number of films, then of course we should consider handing over the publicity to them, but now...... Director, let me remind you that doing business is about negotiating the price, and if you don't bargain now, you may lose money. ”

These words made Kameyama Chihiro speechless for a while, and the other staff of the Film Business Bureau in this conference room wanted to laugh.

Yes, to talk about business, you have to talk about business, but you, the director, are interesting, what price the other party offers, you don't talk about it, and you are still facing the other party, it's too strange.

In fact, everyone knows more or less what is going on, but no one dares to say more.

At this time, Toho spoke again to Toei's representatives.

"We're just talking about some of the rules of the industry, and if the team leader doesn't accept it, it doesn't matter. ”

"Yes, it's a big deal that we won't cooperate this time, and the two of us are just small theaters. ”

The threat in the words is already very obvious.

Of course, they talked to Kameyama Chihiro at the beginning, and Kameyama's attitude is naturally to set up a problem for this movie, so you can bid as much as you want.

But then, Yuki Kusano said something very interesting to Kameyama.

"Director, if the box office of this movie is very good, then, according to the price code of Toho and Toei Cinemas, is it that our Fujitai will suffer a big loss this time?"

Kameyama's eyes narrowed, revealing a slightly fierce look, "Team Leader Kusano, what do you mean?"

Yuki Kusano quickly responded, "It's very simple, who will take this responsibility? I'm just a small team leader, I'm done filming, if I don't make any money because of this kind of scheduling, then what about this responsibility? If I am responsible, then I will be too wronged." ”

Kameyama's brows furrowed, "What do you mean ......?"

Yuki Kusano simply interrupted him and turned his head to look at Morita, "Second Chief, can you take this responsibility?"

"This ......" Morita seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then said simply, "How can this be my responsibility......?

Another long note was played.

Yuki Kusano immediately went on to say to Kameyama: "If the director is willing to take this responsibility, then, of course, I and the deputy director will have no problem, of course, this movie can be handed over to Toho and Toei for distribution, and of course the publicity expenses will be deducted, because this is the director of the bureau, you are willing to be responsible." ”

This can be said to be a clear and clear statement of rights and responsibilities.

But the problem is that many times in the workplace can not be so clear, so clear, in large companies, subordinates for the superiors to carry the blame, often happen.

Kameyama really didn't expect that Yuki Kusano would do it to this point and directly make everything clear.

However, there is another key point here.

"Kusano, I admit that what you said makes sense, but the problem is that this film is a romance film, and in terms of distribution, it is more difficult to do, and it is not easy to make money, so you have to think about it. ”

It must be said that what Kameyama said does make sense.

But at this time, the representative of the Shochiku side spoke.

"We have already seen this movie, and we have considered it very well, we are willing to give 40% of the film schedule at the beginning of the release, and then according to the box office, we will decide the next step of the film schedule, as for the publicity cost, we will deduct about 5%. ”

As soon as the voice fell, there was a coaxing at the meeting.

Look at the people!

This condition can be regarded as sincere.

Toho and Toei's representatives were a little angry, but they also knew that their previous conditions were too harsh.

Generally speaking, when a new film is released, there are big stars, and a powerful unit like Fuji TV, especially if it has a relationship with Toho.

It is appropriate to give a high-ranking film at the beginning of the release.

In addition, this is not the work of Yuki Kusano, a young superintendent who is now popular.

Although this is the first film work, the director of the TV series is so good, can't he be successful in film?

Obviously, there is a good chance of success!

It's not because the director of Kameyama is doing trouble, so the representatives on both Toho and Toei look at Kameyama.

At this moment, Kameyama was also very shocked, and he was thinking about one thing in his heart.

How did Yuki Kusano convince Kozo Nagayama?

How can it be repaired!

Looking at Kameyama's expression, Yuki Kusano and Morita both laughed.

......

Director Kameyama didn't know that Kozo Nagayama didn't come to work today, he took Yuki Kusano's stack of A4 papers and went home to look through them.

I'm still watching.

What exactly is this paper?

It's very simple, it's just a script, but this script is an episode of "World Wonderful Story" written by Yuki Kusano.

That's right, Yuki Kusano is the Kozo Nagayama who impresses with this, but why does this episode fascinate Prince Shochiku so much?

Here's what the episode will go like:

The male protagonist is an ordinary person, he does the same work on the production line every day, this kind of work is constantly repeated and repeated, he will be scolded by his boss every day, and he will be encouraged by his girlfriend every day.

The male protagonist has a dream, he wants to become a cartoonist, but, no matter how hard he tries, he will be rejected by the editor of the magazine, and even scolded twice.

And the hero's parents also persuade the actor to give up his dreams every day and do his job well.

The actor couldn't help it one day and pushed his mother. The strength is not great, but it is a coincidence that my mother fell to the ground, but suddenly...

The hero's mother is broken.

It's just broken, repeating the same thing over and over again, and the head falls off, the arm falls off, and it smokes.

That's right, the hero's mother is a robot.

Then this frightened the actor, and he hurried to see his father, but as a result, his father didn't have any special reaction, so he was persuading the actor to give up, give up.

Dad is also a robot.

What's wrong with the world?

What about girlfriends?

What about the boss?

It's robots too!

What about editing?

It's also a robot!!

What about girlfriends!?

Or is it a robot!!

The actor collapsed, but suddenly one day, he discovered the truth, it turned out that the people around him were tired of this repetitive world, so they simply let themselves enter a place called MATRIX, that is, a world created by the computer, and it was their consciousness that entered.

What is left behind are those robots, and the robots accompany the male protagonist to live.

What should the actor do in the end?

The story doesn't end here, and the three hearts of Nagayama are itching to watch.

This is a script that is very much in line with the style of "Wonderful Things of the World", and there are so many things in it, there are science fiction elements, and there is also a satire on society, which is so interesting!

Yuki Kusano, how many good ideas do you have!

So, Prince Songzhu agreed to help, and of course, there is another important point.

That's what Yuki Kusano told him at the time.

"This movie will make money, if it can't make money, of course, follow the normal procedure to reduce the film schedule until it is released. ”

In other words, Yuki Kusano didn't ask too much.

......

in the large conference room.

Kameyama Chihiro's face was flushed, but in the end, he was still a little more rational.

"That, Toho and Toei, can you improve the film schedule?"

The director is shaken!

Everyone saw it clearly, and it could even be said that the director was defeated by the deputy chief and the team leader.

Toho and Toei's representatives glanced at each other and immediately proposed another plan.

35% of the initial film schedule and 5% of the publicity cost.

In this way, the release of "Love Letter" was completely completed, and the release date was determined.

May 6, 1994, the day is Friday.

On the same day, a large premiere will also be held.

This premiere is actually one of the publicity of Shochiku, after all, this kind of event is still very important for a movie.

As a result, the movie "Love Letter" finally embarked on the track of public release.

But it didn't take long for everyone to find out that there was a film with the same name, which sold well.

......

Time flies.

May 6th was an ordinary day, but for Shinobu Nakayama, it was very different.

"Love Letter" is about to be released, and tonight is the premiere.

As the younger sister of the main service, she also starred in this movie, and Shinobu Nakayama had an absolute reason to also participate in the premiere.

She had been dressed up for a long time, and it was not too cold in Tokyo in May, so she prepared a dress with a small dewy shoulder.

When she arrived at the premiere, she appeared with her sister, attracting countless flashing chases.

My sister's long dress is full of sequins, which looks gorgeous and abnormal.

Shinobu Nakayama wasn't attracted by this kind of shiny, she was more looking for that person.

Pity...

"Sister Nanako, what about the Kusano Overseer?" Shinobu Nakayama really had no choice, so he could only ask Nanako.

Nanako Matsushima is wearing a black evening dress today, simple and elegant, she was already tall, and now, her face is full of smiles.

"Master said that he would not participate in this kind of activity. ”

"Oh?"

"Well, he doesn't like to be on the road in public. ”

"That's right. ”

Zhongshan endured a long period of loss, all of which were seen in Nanako's eyes, and the tall disciple smiled even deeper.

"My good sister, come on, watch a movie with my sister. ”

"Okay. ”

Nakayama Shinobi, who was pulled by his sister, was stunned in his heart.

Yuki Kusano didn't attend the premiere of his first film, which is in line with his principles, so where is he now?

......

Shinjuku, in the newly rented apartment, the bathtub is really not small.

"Ah Xing, you have a conscience!"

"Ah Hui, I've always been very conscientious. ”

"You don't come!"

"Isn't it?"

Yuki Kusano is sad, while Ah Hui is cute and cute.

The sound of the water in this bathtub is dingdong.

"I still want to act in this movie. ”

"It's all been filmed. ”

"I want to see it. ”

"That...... Let's get down to business. ”

"What's the business?...... Oops, you're so bad, haha......"

The bathtub was so white and big. Diagram of the Avenue of the Heavens
