Chapter 483: Returning to School
Although the filming time started in February, the broadcast time of "Antang Machine Qì Ren" was in July, just like the previous "Public Security Fifth Lesson", "Antang Ji Qì Ren" also requires a lot of special effects, and, because of a lot of preparation time, the special effects of "Antang Ji Qì Ren" are better than the previous work.
This work in the previous life,Although the CG system zuò made many people surprised that "the Japanese can also do this kind of special effects",But if you really want to talk about the level of special effects,In fact, there is a bit too much pursuit of computer CG,If you really want to do the special effects very well,In fact, in addition to computer CG,The construction of various sets and models is also equally important,Of course,Time has entered the 21st century,The cost of this model is even more than that of CG system,So there will be more attention to the situation of computer CG system。
Zhou Xiao's second "Antang Machine Qì People" is much more atmospheric in this respect than the works of his previous life, the most powerful example is that there are Kimura's memories of the future in this drama, and the plot of this part of the memories is mainly to describe the plot of Kimura killing a large number of ordinary people as a machine qì people, this part of the plot of the original work just built a small set and let Kimura perform it, but in Zhou Xiao's version, a whole battlefield was built, A small battle was filmed to show the strong combat effectiveness of Kimura and the advanced technology of the time.
You must know that the plot of Kimura's memories is only one or two minutes of scenes in each episode, and building a big set for such a short small plot is amazing.
The meeting with the crew is a whole day, in fact, most of the actors are not there all day today, such as Toda Ezurika and others, but Zhou Xiao and Kimura Takuya are the two most important people in this drama, they spent in this conference room from eight o'clock in the morning to ten o'clock in the evening, and throughout the day, the production committee of "Antang Ji Qì People" is a whole crew of people who first went through the plot, and then began to discuss the directing method and even most of the shots in each episode. Of course, Zhou Xiao has the original work in his mind, but after studying the original work many times in his mind, and after he also has a hole in his own mind, he feels that many parts of the original work are still worth revising, not to mention that many of those stunts are simply made from scratch and more powerful versions.
Of course, there is a break in the middle of the meeting, and everyone eats lunch and dinner directly in the conference room during the break, and while eating Kimura's agent, he said: "Mr. Zhou Xiao is amazing, I haven't seen Kimura so energetic for many years." ”
"Really? What an honor for me. Zhou Xiaodao.
"My credo is to only work for one month a year, and the long filming time of this show is the only thing that makes me unhappy." Takuya Kimura also said.
The filming of the TV series is actually very hard. But for so many years, especially in the past few years after the establishment of AKB, Zhou Xiao has slowly become accustomed to this busy state, so when "Antang Ji qì Ren" was being prepared, he only had the job of making movies for a while, but he didn't know what to do.
That morning, after locking himself in his home and coding a little script that he expected to come up with in the future, Zhou Xiao suddenly thought of something that he hadn't done for several years.
"By the way, what about my student ID, take advantage of the time I have recently. Let's just go to class......" Zhou Xiao rummaged, yes, he suddenly remembered that he was still a student of Keio School.
It's been several years since I was admitted to Keio School. But he was too busy to have much time to go to school, and he had taken some courses intermittently in the past few years. Except for two classes, he simply invited the teacher to his side to teach the class, and he was not short of money. A lot of gold yuan was smashed, and the teachers were also proud to be able to teach Zhou Xiao, and there were very few who did not agree to teach Zhou Xiao, even if there was really that kind of reserved refusal, Zhou Xiao would visit him in person, and the other party would quickly agree.
In the past few years, Zhou Xiao may not have enough classes in school for a semester.
As soon as he thought of it, he reluctantly packed his things after calling for a car, brought his laptop and the like, got into the driver's car and went to Keio.
Parking his car at the school gate, Zhou Xiao stepped down and entered the campus, while his driver and bodyguard followed behind with textbooks and laptops and the like.
Zhou Xiao, who did not wear sunglasses and wore a suit instead of a school uniform, walked around the Keio campus, and there were two words that could describe "pulling the wind!" All passers-by stared at him, especially the girls, looking at Zhou Xiao like a wolf seeing a sheep.
But these Keio classmates were still very polite, they didn't really pounce on them but just watched from a distance, which allowed Zhou Xiao to cross the campus more easily and come to the class location that he had determined before.
When Zhou Xiao arrived at the classroom, it was already five minutes before the start of the class, and a teacher was standing on the podium talking about contemporary Japanese literature.
"I'm sorry I'm late." Zhou Xiao said that he was accustomed to coming late for class, and with his busyness, it was impossible for him to always be as good as usual.
"Remember to be as punctual as possible in the future." The teacher obviously recognized Zhou Xiao and did not pursue his responsibility for the transition, but said a word very casually and let him go.
Zhou Xiao took the things held by the driver next to him, entered the classroom and walked to the rear.
Because it was just an ordinary class, there were not many students in the classroom, but they were just sparsely filled in front, and in the process of walking to the back of the classroom, Zhou Xiao could also feel the scorching eyes of the girls around him.
Because he had plenty of free time for a week, Zhou Xiao would go to Keio every day for several days, and he couldn't learn anything in a week, but with the classmates who took the class together, Zhou Xiao quickly became familiar with it.
Not all of these people are from the same literature department as Zhou Xiao, some may come here to take classes purely because they want to take a certain course, especially after Zhou Xiao comes, this phenomenon is particularly obvious, originally many classes that are not many people will suddenly increase a considerable number of classmates, especially female students, who seem to be particularly enthusiastic about this kind of thing.
Zhou Xiao also tried his best to treat everyone kindly, in this week. He even found time to participate in two extracurricular activities on the university campus, which can be regarded as a reluctance to enjoy a carefree college life, although the time may only be to enjoy it for a few days.
Today is the last day that Zhou Xiao is expected to come to school for class, and early tomorrow morning, the filming of "The Fifth Lesson of Public Security" will begin, and after joining the group, he will be entangled in everything, and it will be impossible for him to have time to go to class.
A morning was spent in the course, and at noon, Zhou Xiao took his driver to the cafeteria to eat, while he was in class. The driver and bodyguard was waiting outside the classroom, it stands to reason that Zhou Xiao didn't need to be so protected as a man, but this driver usually behaved very well, and he didn't appear too much to make Zhou Xiao annoy, but also played a role in protecting him, and he didn't drive him back with Zhou Xiao.
As he walked all the way to the cafeteria, a voice suddenly came to his ears.
The first thing I heard was the sound of the guitar, although there was no single for a long time, Zhou Xiao never put down the music. Especially in the process of making zuòAKB, I have to supervise a lot of singles, so my sensitivity to music is quite good.
The sound of the guitar in his ears surprised Zhou Xiao and stopped. The soothing-sounding guitar sound is playing Zhou Xiao's music, but it is not Zhou Xiao's work for AKB in recent years, but Zhou Xiao's work written for a variety show many years ago. This song was originally sung by Taylor Swift, and now it is "WeAreNeverEverGettingBackTogether" given to AngelaAki by Zhou Xiao.
Zhou Xiao is relatively early, strictly speaking, Zhou Xiao's previous music works are zuòAKB. The most talked-about point is that almost every song is a classic, every song is taken out, and quite a lot of people like it, and this song is one of the least famous songs among his many classics, usually if you hear someone say that you want to sing Zhou Xiao's song, I am afraid that the least number of people will choose this song.
After a guitar prelude, the singer surrounded by the crowd finally began to sing, it was a girl, and as soon as the girl's voice reached her ears, it made Zhou Xiao frown, this voice ...... This voice!
Zhou Xiao, who listened to the girl singing two sentences, did not walk over directly, his current identity is almost known to everyone on campus, if he really wants to go directly to see the owner of this voice, it will cause a considerable storm, so, after listening to the girl sing two sentences, Zhou Xiao continued to walk forward, but, while walking, he said to the driver next to him: "How about the camera function of your mobile phone?" Are there enough pixels? ”
Although he didn't know what Zhou Xiao meant, the driver still replied truthfully: "It's not bad, I can shoot people clearly." ”
"That's good, you go back now, take a picture of the singing girl, inquire about her name and then notify the company, if she doesn't have a brokerage company, don't hesitate to sign her!" Zhou Xiao said.
"Yes!" The easy-to-use and sensible driver didn't ask Zhou Xiao for any reason, and simply agreed.
This girl, who was just asked to sign by the company when Zhou Xiao heard the voice, is obviously a girl with extraordinary voice recognition, not only voice recognition, but also the reality of being in Keio School, which also gave him a reason to determine the identity of the girl.
went to and from school as usual, and early the next morning, he joined the crew and started the filming of "Antang Machine Qì People", this shooting was a week's time, and when Zhou Xiao came out of the studio, it was nearly ten days later.
Originally, Zhou Xiao didn't want to be liberated from the studio and filming work, but the company had a lot of work that he had to do, so he was forced to leave the studio and come to the building where the company was located.
Entering his office, Zhou Xiao found that there was already a girl sitting on the sofa in the office.
"You are?" Zhou Xiao asked in surprise, this girl was small, with black and bright hair, and she looked like she was only fifteen or sixteen years old.
"Mr. Zhou Xiao!" The girl nervously stood up.
"What is this?" Zhou Xiao turned around and asked Uncle Inoue beside him.
"What, you don't know the person you signed onto?" Uncle Inoue asked.
"I signed it?" Zhou Xiao looked at the girl in front of him again in surprise.
"Ahh miwa! He finally remembered the girl's name and who she was.
Miwa, the name, is basically known to Japanese music lovers.
Since entering the Internet era, traditional pop music has been in a state of gradual decline, and idol groups and the like have occupied a lot of eyeballs, making it even more difficult for traditional pop music to make a breakthrough.
This is not to say that idols occupy the market of traditional pop music, and the main reason for the decline of traditional pop music. Or because of the impact of media changes such as the Internet, in other words, even if there is no AKB and Arashi, there will be no one to fill the gap in the sales of Nikin, and otaku and housewives accept AKB and Arashi because these things can fill them, and traditional pop music does not have this function.
Under this trend of the times, there are fewer and fewer people who adhere to traditional pop music, and among them, there are even fewer creatures like singers who once called the wind and rain in the 90s.
After 2005. There is only one singer who really relies on her own ability to sing popularity, and that is Kana Nishino, and after 2010 in the future, the person who is most likely to take over Kana Nishino, who has slowly declined, is Miwa, the black-haired elf in front of Zhou Xiao who is only 149 cm tall.
Miwa's singing skills and music quality actually have nothing to say.,In 2010 or so, she can also debut as a solo female singer itself represents her ability.,The key is that the little girl looks very cute.,Petite height with a guitar.,From time to time, it's definitely a lot of people.。 Compared with a certain oily female singer who has signed with AZX for a while, there is still a certain advantage, as for the problem that this girl cannot be sold to Kana Nishino for the time being, Zhou Xiao feels that it is still a long time, since she is a very capable girl, she will cultivate it slowly. The company won't lose money.
Miwa's signing job was ridiculously simple, and when Zhou Xiao asked her if she was interested in signing with AZX, the girl agreed without any consideration, and only after careful questioning. This girl's family background is quite good, so when she was in high school the year before last, she released a single at her own expense, and there are indeed music companies that want to sign her. But the little girl liked Zhou Xiao very much, and she didn't sign a contract with the company, but studied hard and was admitted to Qingying Yishu, where Zhou Xiao was, and only picked up the same beloved music after going to college.
"Huh? If that's the case, then how could you not know when I was in class in Keio the other day? Zhou Xiao asked after hearing Miwa say this.
"I ...... I see......" Miwa shyly lowered her head.
"Huh? Oh! I know! Zhou Xiao groaned slightly, and thought of why Miwa said this.
It's not that this girl doesn't know, but she already knew that Zhou Xiao was in class in Qingying, but she didn't run to the classroom to be a Zhou Xiao, but waited on the road very smartly after figuring out Zhou Xiao's rules of action, and conquered his ears with a song.
"Did you see me then?" Looking at the girl's shy appearance, Zhou Xiao asked.
"Of course I do...... You paused for a moment and then left, and I was disappointed for a long time, until someone from the company approached me, and I didn't know that you had already decided to sign me after just one sentence. Miwa said with stars in her eyes.
It seems that this girl must have thought that Zhou Xiao could hear her ability with just one sentence, but she didn't expect him to make a move after hearing the girl's voice and knowing the girl's identity.
"By the way, are you interested in idol groups and dancing?" After signing the contract, Zhou Xiao asked.
"Also...... Thankfully, do you want me to join the AKB? Miwa asked.
"If you don't like it, you don't have to, but if you can join for a while, I have some better way to push you." Zhou Xiao said.
"Dancing...... I almost didn't skip it. The girl said.
"In this way, I see that you have no resistance to joining AKB, during this time, I will find a dance teacher to try to train you, if you really need to join AKB in the future, we will first sign a subsidiary contract, stipulating that your work in AKB is only an auxiliary, as long as you don't like it or the time is up to a certain extent, we will let you solo debut, do idols or something, just a way to bring you more attention and fans, not as your main job." Zhou Xiao thought of a condition that was quite lenient for Miwa.
This kind of condition that has almost no binding force on the girl, miwa naturally agreed easily, and Zhou Xiao's goal was also achieved, if miwa can join AKB in the future, of course, it is a very high start for the girl's own fame, and it is not a huge help to AKB itself.
Seeing off Miwa, Zhou Xiao continued to work, sat in the office for dozens of minutes, and after signing a lot of documents, the secretary suddenly knocked on the door and walked in.
"Mr. Zhou Xiao, AKB's Mai Oshima wants to see you." The secretary said.
"Mai Oshima? Let her in. Zhou Xiao agreed in surprise, why did Mai Oshima suddenly come to see him?
About a minute after the secretary went out, Mai Oshima knocked on the door and walked in.
"What's the matter?" Zhou Xiao asked.
"Zhou ...... Brother Zhou Xiao...... I...... I want to graduate. Mai Oshima said a little nervously. (To be continued......)
