"Where are we going?" On the night of December 31 in Tokyo, Zhou Xiao sat in Uncle Inoue's car and asked.
"Go home." Uncle Inoue said.
"But that's not the direction of my house."
"That's not your home, it's just a house you rented, for the Chinese New Year, in that kind of place, can you feel the meaning of home?" Uncle Inoue said.
"But somewhere else...... Oh...... I understand. Zhou Xiao glanced at Uncle Inoue.
"It's good to understand, I have everything at home, your room was prepared by my wife yesterday, so stay at my house tonight." Uncle Inoue said.
“…… Then I won't thank you. Zhou Xiaodao.
"That's right." Uncle Inoue said.
"Also, what are your goals next?" Uncle asked.
"Well...... The movie in late January is about to be released, and the singles of the same period will also be sold, so from late January to early February, it should be in the promotion period, and by mid-February, it will basically be the graduation season, and the "s--m" AP will also have a single, so we will also make way for them. So this time...... There are two options, one is to prepare for a second film, and the other is to ...... I want to open another company. Zhou Xiao said.
"What kind of movie is a movie? What kind of company is it? ”
"Movie words...... Do you think it's better to make a warm film, or a sad film with a funny skin? Zhou Xiao asked.
"Still making tragic films? "A Liter of Tears" is already very sad, if you shoot it again, will your style be restricted? Uncle Inoue asked.
"That's half a problem...... That...... How about making a film that has a big social repercussion and maybe will cause discussion? Zhou Xiao asked.
"What kind of film is this, how many movie scripts do you have in your head?" Inoue asked.
"Actually, there wasn't one, I just had an idea." Zhou Xiao said.
"A warm film, a film with great social repercussions, a tragic film with a funny skin?"
"That's right."
"I can't give you an answer, because I don't know what each one of them will look like. But all I can say is ...... I'm here to support you, and you're sure you'll be able to shoot it well. Uncle Inoue said.
"It's hard to choose," Zhou Xiao said, .......
"What about the company? What company do you want to open this time? Uncle Inoue asked.
"I want to open a ...... Internet companies. Zhou Xiao said.
"Internet companies!? Why can't you even get into the entertainment industry this time! ”
"Hehe, I can't help it, my next goal is to need a special kind of website, but this kind of website is not yet famous and successful in Japan, and I think this kind of website will definitely be liked by Japanese people. So instead of waiting for someone else to open it, I might as well open it myself. Zhou Xiao said.
"And what kind of website are you talking about?"
"Do you know B1OG?" Zhou Xiao asked.
“b1og? Haven't heard of it at all. Uncle Inoue said.
"b1og this thing...... It's a big killer for the Japanese. Zhou Xiaodao.
B1og, called blog in Chinese, in China, this was once a petty bourgeoisie's favorite thing, but to say fire. In fact, it didn't have much popularity, and by 2o14, this thing had basically withdrawn from the historical trend, but in Japan, this thing was a completely different exhibition.
One qiē is only for one reason, and that is the Japanese people...... I love b1og so much!
There used to be such a statistic jù in the web logs of all over the world. About 4% are written in Chinese, 36% in English, and 38% in Japanese! You know, there are many times more people surfing the Internet in English than in Japanese, and even so, there are two percentages more Japanese web logs than English, which is enough to prove how much Japanese people like to write about it!
As for the reason...... Presumably, there are two main ones. One is that the Japanese have a habit of writing journals, and the other reason may be that Japan is a nation that focuses too much on etiquette and the relationship between the upper and lower levels, which will keep their society in order, but on the other hand, it also shows that most of their etiquette and the relationship between the upper and lower seniors are actually only subject to the rules of society and not from their sincerity. This will make them accumulate too much stress and grievances in their hearts. There was a need for a place to tell, and b1og seemed to be such a place.
"You're going to make this thing yourself?" Inoue asked.
"Of course not. I won't do it for me, this thing has already taken shape in Europe and the United States, and there must be people in Japan who want to do it, and if there is no good one for a long time, there must be a problem with investment, so we just need to find a suitable place to invest. Zhou Xiaodao.
"It's pretty much the same, if you suddenly say something about changing careers......" Inoue sighed.
"Of course not, in fact, I am not only doing this to make money, in order to enter the Internet era, the biggest reason for doing this thing, but also I hope to use this thing in my own entertainment industry in the future." Zhou Xiao explained.
"What's there to use with this thing?" Inoue was confused.
"I don't have any specific ideas about how to do it for the time being, but if it's time to do it, I'll tell you." Zhou Xiaodao.
"Okay, then let's talk about warm films, what do you want to shoot?" Uncle Inoue asked.
The most popular Japanese movie is the kind of warm film that is fresh and petty bourgeoisie.
"That warm film...... The investment is estimated to be small......" Zhou Xiao hesitated.
"Investment? What investment does it take to be just an ordinary warm film? ”
"Because I wanted to depict Japan in the 50s and 60s, the set would cost a lot of money."
"I see...... Is it the plight and warmth of Chinese immigrants in the fifties and sixties? Uncle Inoue said.
"Chinese immigrants? That's right...... I forgot if you didn't talk about this...... If that's the case, this film can't be filmed......" Zhou Xiao suddenly remembered when he heard Uncle Inoue's words that he wanted to make this warm film and his own identity.
Zhou Xiao is Chinese, this is irrevocable, such Zhou Xiao may be able to write good songs and adapt good-looking movies, but if he says this, it is unlikely that he will make a film about Tokyo in the fifties and sixties.
"It seems that this "Forever Sanchome Sunset" can only wait for others to shoot it, and I will invest in it......" Zhou Xiao thought helplessly. That's right, this is the director's debut movie that Zhou Xiao first wanted to choose, "Forever 3-chome Sunset" is a comic that represents 7o years, Zhou Xiao wanted to buy him to shoot it himself, but now it seems that this idea died before it started.
"Then the rest is just a topic." Zhou Xiao said.
"Topic? What kind of topic is it? Inoue asked.
"Well...... Teenage pregnancy. ”
"Teenage pregnancy!? You...... How old are you kid, just engage in this topic!? Inoue's face was full of incredulity, he even suspected that Zhou Xiao was still a virgin, so what kind of theme did he engage in teenage pregnancy?
"That's what makes it topical!" Zhou Xiao said.
Speaking of teenage pregnancy, there is a TV or movie in Japan and Europe and the United States that has become popular, the Japanese drama is "Fourteen-Year-Old Mother" and the movie in Europe and the United States is "Juno". If you really talk about the level of the two dramas, "Fourteen-Year-Old Mother" is not as good as "Juno", "Fourteen-Year-Old Mother" is essentially describing whether it is correct to have a child at the age of fourteen and how to treat children at the age of fourteen, but "Juno" describes a series of respect, faith and so on about human nature when facing the choice of life, rather than the more superficial issues of the former.
If Zhou Xiao is allowed to shoot it, he will definitely shoot "Juno" instead of "Fourteen-year-old Mother", which requires some funds to shoot or sell, and the pattern is too small to only be broadcast once on Japanese TV, both in terms of income and topicality. In the case of the former, on the one hand, the adaptation of Guò can save investment and send it to various film festivals to participate, on the other hand, the requirements for Zhou Xiao are not too high, as long as the real things in "Juno" are still there, this movie is enough to generate very good social value and box office revenue.
