Chapter 252: Zhou Xiao's Predicament

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Yui Aragaki's acting skills are not good enough, although she has been joining aZx for a while, and her training has not stopped, but the girl's acting skills are still in a very average way, and Zhou Xiao has a lot of other work to do, so it is naturally impossible to supervise her acting, so Zhou Xiao's method is ...... He spent another amount of money to rent another house on the same floor as himself in the apartment building he rented.

This house is also not small, although Zhou Xiao can afford the money, but it is not right to give the house to live in for free and for no reason, so to the outside world, Zhou Xiao's statement is to use this house as a dormitory for girls.

Of course, there are only two girls in the dormitory, Aoi Miyazaki and Yui Aragaki.

Zhou Xiao's purpose is very simple, "Fourteen-Year-Old Mother" and "JuRI" are not the difference between the movie version and the TV version, Miyazaki Aoi and Aragaki Yui are actually two roles, but when he wrote these two plays, he himself wrote it with the technique of film and TV series with publicity, and it is impossible to be completely unaffected, so it is also very appropriate for him to let two people live together. Aragaki Yui's acting skills are not as good as Miyazaki Aoi, so little Miyazaki Aoi should be able to teach her a lot, on the other hand, Aragaki Yui is still quite free and unrestrained at this age, so she can also prevent Miyazaki Aoi from turning back into that decent good girl, and the two can be regarded as mutually beneficial.

Although he rented a big house, it is not a lot of time for Zhou Xiao to live, and even if he lives, he often goes to bed directly after going home late at night, and he has no chance to enjoy the big room at all, he is really busy during this time.

The sale of the single is still in the promotional period, especially now that it is in the honeymoon period with Fujitai, so this day. He went to Fujidai again.

recorded a small program for propaganda, and as soon as Zhou Xiao came out of the studio, he saw a group of people standing outside the door.

The group had cameras and microphones in their hands, and seemed to be waiting for him.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Xiao asked in surprise.

At this moment, a man walked up. When he looked closely, he realized that this person was actually in the middle of the day.

As a member of the "S--M" AP who is mainly hosting the exhibition, although Masahiro Nakai has a broken gong voice and sings out of tune, his popularity is second only to Takuya Kimura in the "S--M" AP.

"Yo!" Nakaju leaned over with the microphone.

"What's wrong, what's wrong? What do you want to do? Zhou Xiao wondered that there are too many nonsense projects in the Japanese entertainment industry, and sometimes these TV people only care about whether it's fun or not. Zhou Xiao is not afraid that he will be asked to do some spoof plan, no matter how exaggerated the spoof is, he can accept it, but acceptance is acceptance, and it is necessary to show Xiàn exaggeration in front of the camera.

"Zhou Xiao, stirring up the entertainment industry at a young age, what a powerful guy." Zhongju looked at Zhou Xiao. said with emotion.

"Why is this weird tone, don't scare me." Zhou Xiaodao.

"What have you been up to lately?" Nakaju asked.

"Uh...... It's just a single. Zhou Xiao said. He came here to promote the single, so in the face of Zhongju's interview, he naturally answered the same.

"Nothing else than that?" Nakaju asked.

"Something else? Kindness...... Still filming. Zhou Xiao replied.

"Filming!? Do you hear that, audience friends!? He's filming!? When he first debuted two years ago, I first met him backstage at Musinet, and who would have thought that two years later, he would also leave in terms of singing. But in addition, he has become a director who can represent Japan! "Nakaju Road.

"It's not enough to represent Japan or something, right?" Zhou Xiao also said.

"Why not, you have done so many things! Now you are no longer at the same level, we ordinary artists may be idols, singers, and actors, but you are not now, you are now a musician and a director. It's the boss of the company! ”

"Forehead ......" Zhou Xiao was a little puzzled, why did Zhongju specifically throw it over to praise himself?

"But...... That's not what I'm trying to say, you've recently released a single, made a movie, and written a script for a TV series. What else are you doing? Zhongju asked again.

"And? No, it's gone? Zhou Xiao wondered, what did this guy want to say?

"Really? Don't lie to us. ”

"It's gone, what else can there be?" Zhou Xiaodao.

"Huh? Strange, then why do I have information here that you still know about symphony? Nakaju said strangely.

"That's what you say!" Zhou Xiao finally understood what Zhongju was talking about.

"That's just a joke of mine, it's not true, I don't know any instruments in the symphony orchestra." Zhou Xiao said that he really didn't know, but in order to write "Noda Hui Like a Song", he found some materials and researched it, but Cheng Dù only liked it, and it was definitely not love.

"Just liking it, just having a story come to mind, so you created it?" Zhongju listened to Zhou Xiao's rhetoric, and it was also very difficult to accept.

"yes, I really don't, I don't have any foundation." Zhou Xiao spread his hands and said.

"In that case...... Let's go learn it!? The first half of Zhongju's tone was very lost, as if he and the program team had guessed wrong, but in the second half of the sentence, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhou Xiao and said, his eyes were shining, and the smile on his face couldn't be hidden.

"Huh!? Ha!? Only then did Zhou Xiao realize that he had been cheated by this goods, and his previous doubts and losses were all fake, and the real plan was here.

"Learn!? What to learn? Zhou Xiao had to ask.

"Learn the symphony! If we learn those instruments, it will waste a lot of time, so let's learn to conduct! ”

"Huh? Wait a minute, what kind of show is this planned? Zhou Xiao asked the person who looked like a director outside the camera.

"smapxsmap." Nakaju looked serious.

"When did SXS do this kind of project! This kind of sudden cheating daddy should be mine or 99's show! Zhou Xiao complained.

"99 won't have such a high-end project, it's really our SXS project, we want to be an SP." Nakaju said.

“sp? Then I'll say yes first, let me say yes. But you can't be idle, you, and the other four seniors of the "S--M" AP will also be in command together! Zhou Xiao said.

"Of course that's fine!" Nakaju Masahiro said with a nonchalant expression.

"Wait, let me ask, when is the estimated airtime of this project?" Zhou Xiaodao.

"In the second half of this year or next year." Middle Residence Road.

"Huh!? It's only April. Do you want to book next year's project now? Zhou Xiao was surprised.

"Who made you so busy with work, you must also know that as a conductor, you will definitely make a fool of yourself if you practice casually, so the plan of the program team is to find a teacher to make a set of study plans for us first, and we will practice first. Wait until a month before the show airs, and then the teacher will teach us personally. ”

"That's ......," Zhou Xiao groaned.

"How?" Nakaju asked.

Zhou Xiao is a little regretful, it was a very good idea for SXS to do a symphony conducting project, but the timing was a little early, whether it was in the second half of this year or next year, in Zhou Xiao's opinion, it was a little early to shoot the TV series version of "Symphony "Qingren" Dream".

The two protagonists in this film have actually debuted. Tamaki Hong starred in "Five Splashing Boys" last year, in which he played a high school student who played synchronized swimming, the huge explosion head is very exaggerated, and now he is just 22 years old, and his grade seems to be very suitable for the age of the protagonist Chiaki Shinichi in "Symphony "Qingren" Dream", but Zhou Xiao knows that stars often look much younger than real young people. Therefore, Tamaki Hiroshi can play a high school student around the age of 2o, but if he is asked to play a college student at the age of 22, first, he looks a little tender, and second, Zhou Xiao is also a little worried about his acting skills.

As for Noda Mei Ueno Shuri, she was born in 86 and joined the firm, took over the advertising of Procter & Gamble Washing Water, and has a very, very ordinary soy sauce role, so it is not suitable for her to play Noda Mei directly.

"At least wait until O3, and by O3, maybe these two people will be more mature." Zhou Xiao thought.

"Actually, I think...... This project was done a little early. Zhou Xiaodao.

"Early?"

"yes. It would be perfect if it could be done when the TV series was broadcast......" Zhou Xiao said.

"This ...... We really didn't expect you, would you adapt this show? Zhongju also understood what Zhou Xiao meant.

"yes, actually, when this manga was first set, I went for that." Zhou Xiao said.

"In the beginning? So from the very beginning, you thought about writing and being a director? "Nakaju Road.

"That's right." Zhou Xiaodao.

"That'...... Either this plan will be pressed first. Wait until your TV series is about to air? Zhongju Tiyì said.

"No, no, in that case, the project would have lasted too long, so it's okay to start doing it now." Zhou Xiaodao.

The symphony project is just an episode for Zhou Xiao, during the filming period, he did not stay away from the TV media and could not stay away, the price of staying away from this media is very great, the audience is very forgetful, you don't appear for a day or two, a week or two, people may think of you, mention you, and talk about why you disappeared, but if you don't show up for a day or two, but more time, it won't take long, just one month, it is likely that most people have forgotten you in the corner.

"Fourteen-Year-Old Mother" has been broadcast since April, and the ratings at the beginning were 2o%+, and when the second episode was broadcast, the ratings dropped a little but were still more than 18%, so to speak, this is definitely a work that leads the topic and is very interesting.

With the topic of this work and all kinds of likes or hates, there is never a shortage of good and bad comments, and there is no time to stop when you sing and I appear in the media, and after the TV series aired three episodes, Zhou Xiao's move poured another bucket of oil on his already hot atmosphere.

The first movie trailer for JuRI has come out.

When the little Aoi Miyazaki won the award abroad this year, some Japanese media reported it, but the little girl who rarely appeared in front of the Japanese media after "One Liter of Tears" is still not popular enough.

Such a little girl completely faded a liter of tears from the good baby and the cute, carrying a bucket of orange juice confidently walking on the street, that expression and demeanor are extremely interesting.

But then the camera turned, and Aoi Miyazaki's stomach ...... It turned out to be big again.

Kindness? Why do you say again?

Oh, yes. Why? It's not because Zhou Xiao is playing with a girl again and getting pregnant!

No wonder he didn't make a TV series and went to make a movie, it turns out that this kid is playing with the idea of making money on both sides of a story!

A lot of people think so.

Along with the trailer, the synopsis of the movie also followed, is it really a teenage pregnancy again? A simple teaser. The audience can't see any difference between "JuRI" and "Fourteen-Year-Old Mom".

As a result, not only the audience, but also the critics were outraged.

"If nothing else, we will see a very exaggerated and unreasonable farce, Zhou Xiao's undisciplined story has been filmed in two versions, in a vain attempt to make money in both film and television. But is it really okay to take the audience for fools? What Zhou Xiao consumes is actually the audience's love psychology, but the audience also has above and can think, such undisciplined behavior. I predict that this film will be a huge failure! ”

There are many, many film reviews like this, and even many critics and artists who didn't hate Zhou Xiao and would speak to Zhou Xiao were silent this time, because in everyone's general opinion, Zhou Xiao did go a little too far.

In fact, there have always been many adaptations of movie versions to TV versions or vice versa in the Japanese entertainment industry, and there are even some animated versions of films. There is a TV series and a movie, but this is mainly because the audience groups of the two are different, and basically the shooting interval of each version is a period of time.

But like Zhou Xiao, the movie trailer began to be released halfway through the filming of the TV series, and the move of saying that the movie would be released in a few months was too direct, and almost the same story was released when the TV series audience's impression of the TV series had not disappeared, was Zhou Xiao really not sick?

In short, not to mention the media, even aZx and even the crew of "JuRI". also began to quietly distrust Zhou Xiao, everyone felt that what he did this time seemed to be really too much, of course, everyone may have distrust or worry that this film will be lost. But everyone didn't say anything to Zhou Xiao, on the one hand, Zhou Xiao has always wanted to do what he wants to do in the company, everyone is used to his slightly arbitrary way of behaving, on the other hand, Zhou Xiao really didn't do anything wrong, even this time, everyone felt that he did something wrong, but the inertia still made everyone remain silent, I'm afraid that even Uncle Inoue will think that it would be better to let Zhou Xiao do something wrong once, and it would be better to suffer back, so that at least he could listen more in the future.

In such an environment, one question Zhou Xiao is thinking about is, how should "JuRI" be released in theaters?

Public opinion is not optimistic about him, in fact, he had already thought of it when he decided to make a movie like this, after all, the two films are too close in time, and the content is so similar, originally his idea was that after the broadcast of "Fourteen-year-old Mother", the movie will be released as much as possible to catch up with the topic.

But the reaction of public opinion to him seems to be a little too intense in his opinion, it is never uncommon for two or even more versions of a genre film to be made, why can't I do it if others do it?

The miscalculation of public opinion made him start to worry, when the movie is released, will it lead to the rebellious psychology of the people, no matter how good the film is, everyone just doesn't like it? Now it seems that if I still do this, I am afraid that it is very likely to lead to this result.

So as for the remaining choice, it is obvious, that is, after the film is filmed, it will be directly exhibited at various foreign film festivals, and then it will be popular after getting enough awards and praise, this way is still relatively easy to do in his opinion, but the disadvantage is that I am afraid that people around him will not be optimistic about such an action.

This "JuRI", don't look at it as just an ordinary teenage pregnancy film, but Zhou Xiao didn't throw money into it, Zhou Xiao estimated, plus the final publicity expenses, its overall investment may exceed 500 million yen, this number is not small for a Japanese movie with almost no special effects fighting action cg.

Such a big investment, not to make money by releasing the film in Japan first, but to suppress the film to participate in foreign exhibitions, is a big challenge to the company's capital return and morale, almost no one will be optimistic about Zhou Xiao's move, no matter what, what awards can this film get, and even be popular?

After thinking about it and thinking about it, Zhou Xiao still decided to follow his choice and take it abroad to be released first, although this film has changed from a European and American film to a Japanese film, but the values and connotations in it are still European and American, and if it is released in Europe and the United States, it is more likely to be successful, and if it is in Japan, those European and American concepts, and some of Zhou Xiao's very European and American dialogues and plots left because he was afraid of European and American audiences accepting Cheng dù, may become rat poop in the eyes of Japanese audiences, and finally spoil this pot of good soup.

Of course, Zhou Xiao also knows very well, let alone whether you can make money or not, just the process of releasing it in Europe and the United States is actually not easy, Japanese movies are ...... The fame outside may not be as big as that of Chinese films, and the vast majority of European and American audiences only recognize three Japanese directors, that is, Akira Kurosawa, Takeshi Kitano and Hayao Miyazaki.

If you want to break this, when Zhou Xiao's film is finished and he goes abroad to strive for release, I am afraid he will have a very long way to go.

ps: Since I didn't recommend it, the subscription began to drop...... Japanese Entertainment ...... How hard is it......
