Chapter 49: Opportunity
Sakurada Office, Funeral Flowers writes novels in Sakurada Akira's office.
A contract has been signed with MediaWorks Publishing, and the Catalogue of Forbidden Books of Magic will be published at the same time as the Dengeki Bunko Newcomer Award is announced.
Judging from the meaning confided by the Bucheon editor when he talked, if nothing happens this time, the newcomer award will already be in the bag of the funeral flower.
I was going to write a few more volumes of the "Catalogue of Forbidden Books of Magic" next, but after the filming of "The Curse" ended, I started the intense work again.
It's just that his hand kept tapping on the keyboard, but his brows slowly wrinkled, looking at Sakurada Akira who was walking around the room, and said helplessly: "I said Sakurada are you as good as you?" No matter how urgent you are now, the situation of "The Grudge" is like that! ”
Although it was not the first time, Sakurada Akira was still a little embarrassed to be scolded by a child who was dozens of years younger than him.
He stopped in a daze, scratched his head and said, "Isn't this also bottomless in my heart?" I'm not too worried about the quality of "Incantation", but this schedule and the set—"
Halfway through the conversation, Sakurada Akira gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice: "It's all a damn Pegasus company, otherwise it wouldn't be the way it is!" ”
Since the incident of the seven-chome Kyoxing, Tianma Yuan's hatred for the funeral flowers has reached its peak.
was scared by a little girl and peed her pants, which he regarded as the biggest stain on his life, if he hadn't really been able to provoke Ampere's family, he would have gone to Anpei Qingyue for revenge.
It's just that Tianma Yuan consciously can afford to provoke a few people from the funeral flowers, and he has suppressed Sakurada almost everything in the past month.
first accelerated the filming speed of "The Sixth Sense", and forcibly mentioned the release date of half a month to the same day as "The Grudge", and then used the resources of Tianma Company to greet the major theaters in Tokyo, and as a result, the number of "The Grudge" was squeezed down, not only the number of screenings was insufficient, but even the viewing time was affected, a movie theater may only have one or two shows a day that can be released, in addition, the artists of Tianma Company are still grabbing Sakurada's announcement, and many first- and second-tier artists even do not hesitate to lower their prices, It is also necessary to suppress Sakurada's artists.
Sakurada in the past month can be described as extremely miserable, if it weren't for the great god of burial flowers, I'm afraid people's hearts would have been scattered long ago.
In the past, when Sakurada Akira mentioned the Tenma Company, he still had some scruples, but now he completely opened his mouth and scolded, because the other party did everything he could, and no matter how ruthless he was, he couldn't play more tricks.
However, after cursing in a low voice, Sakurada Akira sneaked a look towards the funeral flower.
"Funeral flowers, what do you think our "Curse" will do in the end, will it not be good, after all, Tianma Company suppresses us so much?"
Sighing slightly, Fuhua really didn't want to discuss this issue with Sakurada Akira again, because there were too many times to talk about it.
But President Sakurada, who looked as pitiful as a puppy, still had to explain: "I think it's no problem, what is the quality of "The Grudge", you should know best about the film, and the supernatural theme is still very popular in RB now, so as long as someone watches it, it's no problem, and those audiences will help us spread the word of mouth little by little!" ”
"But no matter how good the quality is, it still needs publicity, you don't know the funeral flowers-"
Sakurada opened his mouth, trying to defend something, but then the phone on his desk suddenly rang.
"Hey, hello, I'm Akira Sakurada ,—— what, what did you say?! I got it, I'll take care of it! ”
When he first picked up the phone, Sakurada Akira's expression was normal, but then he suddenly shouted, his voice was both a little excited, but also a little worried.
Gently put down the phone, Sakurada looked at the funeral flower with a strange face, and said, "Just now, there was a call from the bottom map theater, saying that someone watched our movie, which caused a heart attack and was sent to the hospital!" ”
The hand of the funeral flower typing paused slightly, and then shook his head and smiled.
In the memory of that world, "The Grudge" was famous for its horror and horror when it was released, and it was once banned, and it is said that it was also because of the dead people, but I didn't expect it to be the same here.
"You didn't forget to put the subtitles I asked you to put at the beginning, did you?"
Glancing at Akira Sakurada, the funeral flower asked lightly.
"I didn't forget, I didn't forget!" It seems that the subtitle is also in mind, but the melancholy between Sakurada Ming's eyebrows is gone, and it is replaced by indescribable excitement.
I originally thought there was some useless nonsense at this time, but I moved the last obstacle, and there was a beginning of that paragraph, and something happened to the movie, but I can't blame Sakurada, after all, supernatural movies are not scary, so what is a supernatural movie? I reminded you, and I still insisted on watching it, so I can only blame myself, or I blame the theater for not arranging it, and anyway, there is nothing to do with our producers.
"Funeral flowers, our movie was sent to the hospital, this is big news! Now we don't have to publicize it ourselves, those newspapers and magazines will flock to it! Haha, I see how they are still suppressing us!······"
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and in the end, Sakurada Akira couldn't wait to jump up immediately and yell outside.
However, the funeral flower behaved very calmly, just shook his head, and continued to code.
"Hey, funeral flower kids, shouldn't you express your excitement at this time? This is your first movie, maybe it will become a hit soon, and you will be a big star by then······"
Chattering endlessly, Sakurada Akirachi pulled the funeral flower's shoulders and said with great dissatisfaction.
It's just that there is joy in that dissatisfaction, and no one needs to say it, as a director of supernatural films, Sakurada Akira knows what kind of value a horror movie can scare people to death.
It can be said that as long as the relationship is not bad, then the awards of the Blue Ribbon Award and RB Best Movie are in the bag.
Looking quietly at the excited Sakurada, the funeral flower sighed softly.
"President Sakurada, the success of "The Grudge" seems to me to be an inevitability, even if there is no such thing as today, the ending will not change in any way, it is just a matter of time."
"Besides, if I were you, I wouldn't be so happy so early. Even if the results of "The Grudge" are unprecedented, Sakurada Artist Office is still a small office, and it is still being suppressed by Tianma Company. And even if "The Sixth Sense" hits the streets again, Pegasus is still one of the top entertainment companies in the Tokyo circle. ”
"Instead of being excited about this little achievement, you should take advantage of this opportunity to make the company known and recruit more potential newcomers."
The words of the funeral flower were poured on Sakurada Akira's head like a basin of cold water, and the latter's smile quickly froze, scratched his head, and then said dejectedly: "Funeral flower child, you are really as uncute as ever, what does it matter if I am happy at this time!" ”
Just halfway through the words, Sakurada Akira immediately sighed again: "Alas, when will this kind of day be a head!" I don't expect Sakurada to develop to the level of Tenma.,As long as you don't get suppressed casually.,Bury flowers,Do you have a way? ”
Almost subconsciously, now Sakurada comes to look for funeral flowers when he has something, but in fact, he himself has no hope.
However, to his surprise, the funeral flower actually nodded.
Glancing at the calendar on the table, he said, "I don't know if it will work out, but I do have an idea now." ”
