Director Miike's new work is called "Bloody High School" is a movie adapted from a manga, and this manga knew before that it would be when I was in elementary school.

Already distributed in Japan and South Korea in the 90s, the manga was serialized in the "Monthly Junior Champion" in 1990, which lasted eight years, and the cumulative circulation of the single book reached 32 million.

As early as when the manga was still serialized, there were many film directors who hoped to move the comics to the big screen, but they were all rejected by the cartoonist Hiroshi Takahashi, Mr. Takahashi was quite distrustful of remaking the comics into film and television works, so he did not approve of the initiatives of these directors, plus he had seen many examples of adaptations, and in the end they all failed, plus he also had a painful lesson, so he didn't want his cherished works to be ruined by others.

What prompted Mr. Takahashi to change his mind was Mr. Takahashi's good friend, who repeatedly persuaded Mr. Takahashi to change the manga into a movie, at first Takahashi just fell on deaf ears and didn't care very much, but gradually he found that his friend loved this work more than himself, so he nodded and agreed, and when the producer was ready to invite director Takashi Miike to take the helm, Mr. Ko was very excited, and in Takahashi's mind, director Miike was the number one person in the list of ideal director candidates.

The busy director Miike gladly accepted the task, and he and Mr. Takahashi became good friends at first sight, so they often discussed the characters in the manga together, and the two finally decided not to repeat the story of the manga in the movie version, but to create a movie that surprised fans of the original manga with a new original story.

Therefore, director Miike has most of the power in this movie, and even the cast and crew are decided by himself, so he came up with the "Flame Audition" activity, just to select the most suitable actors.

The main supporting roles have already been selected, but the hero was left unselected, until one day the assistant sent him a package, looking at the address sent from South Korea, and when he opened the package, it turned out to be the person who participated in the audition.

Director Miike was directly attracted by Kim Do-joon's combing back hair, especially the makeup photo with the collar covering his mouth and nostrils, which deeply touched Director Miike's heart, this is the actor he really wants, although he is not particularly handsome, but the special smell on his body is very attractive, and people can't forget it at a glance.

Kim Dojun looked at the script carefully, although it was all in Japanese, most of the meanings were still understood, not very obscure, and some didn't understand it, so he asked Han Chengmei directly.

The name of this movie is "Hot Blooded High School"

It tells the story of Lily of the Valley Boys' High School, a notorious school where a group of unscrupulous students who are fond of fighting gathered, and they are called "crows" because they symbolize bloody and unlucky events.

In order to compete for the hegemony of the school, they are divided into many factions, among which the two most powerful forces are: Serizawa Legion led by Serizawa Tamao, transfer student Takiya Genji and the landlord snake Katakiriken join forces of the new force - GPS, with the intensification of the contradictions between the two factions, the time is coming for Genji and Serizawa to duel between the two crow legions.

Kim Do-jun can only roughly read the content of the script, it is very short, not very long, and the story line is also very simple, young people are brave and fierce, which is also in line with the era of the story setting, the era of high school students.

Kim Do-joon's high school also spent in the United States, and he also received some unfair treatment, such as racial discrimination or something.

I used to be enthusiastic and fight with white students, but now that I think about it, it would be really weak, and I was knocked to the ground by my white classmates all of a sudden, and I didn't get up for half a day.

Maybe it really has something to do with race, Asians generally develop late, and they are obviously weaker than whites and blacks in terms of body, muscles, and figure, since then, Kim Do-jun has vowed to train his body well, and often do mechanical exercises in the gym, in fact, it is also a disguised protection of himself.

Kim Do-joon recalled his previous life, high school was undoubtedly the golden age when men had the most urge to fight, on the one hand, the body function has reached full maturity, hormone secretion has entered the peak, and he is moving from "boy" to "man".

On the other hand, it is precisely when the "blood and qi are strong" is carried out, and rationality is a new manager who has just taken office and can't control all emotions, and he simply thinks that the fact that he is already "very manly" can only be proved by his fists.

Sometimes, even if several boys take a bath together, they will compare the size of their lower bodies with each other, which is a manifestation of moving from youth to maturity, and they are still slowly transitioning.

Kim Do-jun took a general look, and found that the role that Director Miike said just now belonged to himself, and it was actually the protagonist Genji Takiya, so he closed the script, and now is not the time to read the script, and there is a lot of time to watch when he returns to the hotel at night, and then there are some issues that need to be discussed with Director Miike.

"Director Miike, will I play the role of Genji Takiya? When did the filming start? ”

Kim Do-jun didn't understand a lot of things because he was in contact with acting for the first time, so it was better to ask directly, and he seemed to be down-to-earth and generous.

Director Miike sat on the chair, looked at Kim Do-joon, and said with a smile.

"Don't be so anxious, we will gather all the actors for rehearsals in the next two days, there are still many actors you don't know and need to be familiar, they will have a lot of rivalry with you in the play, and our filming base has been set in Osaka, and now it will be completed soon, and we will go together in two days."

"Well, okay, so what do I need to do next?" Kim Do-joon then asked.

"You take a break for the past two days, study Japanese by the way, read the script, and I will discuss the salary with your company, and then there will be a small signing ceremony, of course, all the salary needs to be kept secret, I think you know this."

Director Miike said it very easily, and now that the final male protagonist has been decided, although he is a Korean, he still believes that he can make a good movie.

"Okay, then I'll go back to the hotel first, this is my phone number, can Director Miike exchange a personal phone number with you?"

Kim Do-joon asked cautiously, finding a pen and paper and writing down his number.

Many directors don't like to tell others their private number, and the assistant is generally responsible for receiving and contacting, even if it is a notice or a director's request, it is mostly arranged through an agent or assistant, and generally will not call the director directly, unless it is a particularly good friend.

"Well, my number is printed directly on the name thorn, in the back, you didn't even notice it just now."

Director Miike said with a smile, the boy in front of him is really cute, and he is very shy, although it is good, but for this role, it needs to be polished.

Because the positioning in the role is completely the son of a cold, unsmiling violent group boss, I don't know how he plays, to be honest, director Takashi Miike is still a little worried in his heart.

Kim Do-joon touched his hair apologetically, and after greeting the director one by one, he retreated, looking at the bustling scene of Tokyo, and suddenly had an urge to go shopping.

"Brother Cheng Hao, Sister Cheng Mei, why don't we go shopping."

Since I'm in Tokyo, I'm definitely going to go out shopping, but anyway, I have two days, so it's good to stay in the hotel and not come out, study the script well, and strive to leave a good impression on everyone when we meet for the first time, and cheer myself up after speaking.

The three of them took a casual look around the streets of Tokyo, and didn't go anywhere else, so they just walked around Takashi Miike's directorial company.

After a while, he took a taxi back to the hotel, and Kim Do-jun found that his mind was not on it at all, and he felt like something was hanging in his heart, so his interest in shopping was also reduced a lot, and he could only end in a hurry.

In the end, Kim Do-jun still signed a lot of unequal treaties, and agreed that after the movie was completed, he would definitely accompany Han Sung-ho and Han Sung-mi to fight wildly, so he let him go.

Back at the hotel, Kim Do-jun suddenly remembered something and asked Han Sung-ho.

"Brother Cheng Hao, I came to Japan, did you tell the company?"
