Chapter 445 "The Fifth Lesson of Public Security" is about to start
The beginning of April 2008 was a very important time for AZX, and during this time, a lot of the work that AZX and AKB had done before began to bear fruit, bringing a lot of attention to both the company and the group.
At the beginning of April, the first thing was the start of AKBINGO.
LIKE IN THE PREVIOUS LIFE, "AKBINGO" IS USUALLY HOSTED BY BADBOYS, AND THESE TWO ARTISTS FROM FUKUOKA SHOULD BE THE MOST FAMILIAR ARTISTS OF AKB RICE, BUT ...... These two are also the two most famous artists who have worked with AKB for a long time in later generations.
Of course, the rice eaters don't think so, and AKB rice often even treats these two as his own family.
The first episode of bingo's recording, Zhou Xiao also came to the scene in person, if it was Qiu Yuanyasu, it was basically impossible to be present at this time, as a middle-aged fat man, Qiu Yuanyasu's energy could not be more than Zhou Xiao, a guy who has not yet reached the age of thirty, Zhou Xiao's ability to run a company and idol group while filming a TV series is the most incomprehensible to the Japanese entertainment industry, how can he have this energy to do so many things?
Bingo's recording is actually a little different from Zhou Xiao's previous life.
Zhou Xiao's AKB variety show in his previous life started at AKB at 1:59, then evolved into 0:59, and finally became AKBINGO.
At the earliest, at 1:59, in addition to doing AKB's variety show, there is also a role in publicity, except for the regular member Junji Takada, most of the issues are invited to participate in the promotion period of artists or funny artists, and it is understandable that they will do this, after all, the title show in the studio has just begun, and the production zuò group will be very worried about the girls' lack of variety show, and the effect is not good, plus the strength of the two MC hosts is not excellent. It's also normal for the tsuò group to find someone else.
And now AKBINGO has not used Junji Takada, and will not invite any other artists to warm up, Zhou Xiao has enough confidence in these girls, and in Zhou Xiao's opinion, relying on them alone is enough to make the show look good.
No matter how bad it is, if you want to invite an artist to appear, you also invite yourself, although the work is very busy, but if it is the publicity of "The Fifth Lesson of Public Security", Zhou Xiao will be on the ...... It's barely reasonable......
As for the content of AKBINGO now, it is still the same way of making zuò in the previous life. It's okay to have classic plans for all kinds of idols, it's not that you can't give them good plans, it's really a profession like idols, and you don't have the ability to do a good plan, so it's okay to do traditional planning honestly.
IN FACT, FOR ZHOU XIAO, NO MATTER HOW CAPRICIOUS HE IS, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR HIM TO COMPLETELY IGNORE HIS OWN AFFAIRS AND HAVE TO APPEAR ON THE TV STATION TO WATCH THE GIRLS RECORD ON THE DAY OF THE RECORDING OF AKBINGO, AND THE REASON WHY HE CAME TO THE TV STATION THAT DAY IS BECAUSE HE HAS HIS OWN WORK.
This work is ...... screening of "The Fifth Lesson of Public Security". It's finally time to begin.
"The Fifth Lesson of Public Security", which was filmed earlier than other Japanese dramas, is still some time away from the completion of filming, but the first few episodes that have been produced are already ready to be screened, and the prime time on Sunday night, this schedule is still relatively good for the drama "The Fifth Lesson of Public Security". Because this schedule is a weekend night, people who have been playing for a weekend start to go home and prepare for school and work tomorrow, and the audience at this time still hopes to see something less dull, although they are looking forward to something less dull. But if it's not too dull and not so crazy funny, it would be nice to calm everyone down.
And the blockbuster style set by Zhou Xiao is obviously the most suitable for this idea. The plot is very good, but the special effects are also enjoyable, a large number of stars and special effects are full of them, coupled with the emotional drama full of Japanese drama characteristics, the TV station is still looking forward to the final expression of the whole play.
Zhou Xiao also borrowed a lot of things from movies after 2008 while filming this drama, to say that blockbusters after 2008, Marvel, plus Transformers, and Hobbit and other movies are of course very famous, of course these movies Zhou Xiao is not ready to shoot, but it is still very good to learn the shots and plot settings of these works, especially the long shots in the works such as The Hobbit, Transformers and other works, it is really exciting for people to watch, Zhou Xiao's works in the past, most of them are iconic Japanese literary films and campus films, It's rare to have the opportunity to use these things, and now that I have this opportunity, I naturally create these things with the mentality of not using them in vain.
Zhou Xiao actually doesn't like Japanese police or detective series Japanese dramas, and there are actually many, many excellent works in Japan in this regard, such as Renzaburo Furuhata, such as Keigo Higashino's series of works and the like.
is not only a police detective, Zhou Xiao is also not good at Japanese hospital works such as the white tower, so he has not been involved in this aspect since the crossing.
But now that the construction of this so-called ability system has begun, the first drama is "SPEC2", which itself is a work with the police as Beijing, and Zhou Xiao can only shoot this work, as for whether the same series will be filmed in the future but the background is set in the hospital, it will depend on the audience's reaction in the future and whether there are screenwriters willing to join and write the corresponding script.
When the series was about to start broadcasting, he came to the TV station, and Zhou Xiao's job to do was naturally publicity.
"The Fifth Lesson of Public Security" is a work centered on supernatural abilities, such a work...... Naturally, it can't be the type that housewives like, this kind of Japanese drama in the previous life, whether it is "SPEC2" or "Antang Ji qì people", has made a lot of compromises in order to cater to the housewife audience, and this compromise makes the two TV series Although they still retain the skin of science fiction TV series, they have lost the essence of this kind of film.
Now Zhou Xiaolai would not do this kind of thing if it was not necessary to shoot this Japanese drama, especially now that the filming of TV dramas is earlier than ordinary Japanese dramas, and when the feedback comes out after the first two broadcasts, maybe the filming of the whole drama has been completed, and there will naturally be no need to modify the whole drama at that time.
What's more, he also has the capital not to do this, according to some employees on the AZX side who have high self-confidence, that is, our boss's stuff is put there, whether you look at it or not, anyway, in addition to you, there are a lot of people who flock to watch it, and you are not bad at all, and if you don't watch it...... You don't even watch the new TV series directed by the Oscars. So what else would you like to see? You won't appreciate anything directed by the Oscars, so what else can you appreciate?
This statement is extremely confident and even quite arrogant, Zhou Xiao will never say this about his own things, but others will say this, but he can't stop it.
Completely ignoring the housewife viewership group does not mean that the whole drama should be completely built in accordance with the style of European and American blockbusters, Zhou Xiao's drama is still an obvious Japanese drama style, but it is more core, arranging more profound content, and the rhythm is a little faster.
By the way, even Zhou Xiao's promotional activities are more inclined to win the love of young audiences. The loss of the audience on the housewife's side will definitely lose a part, and other directors may try their best not to lose the housewife audience, but Zhou Xiao doesn't want to do that, he wants to win the young audience and even those core audiences more simply, and rely on these audiences to fill the loss of the housewife audience.
This is actually a bit difficult, because the remote control of the family is in the hands of housewives most of the time, and the male audience in Zhou Xiao's target is the core of the otaku audience. There are also high school students and other viewers who usually do not have the right to choose TV channels.
For this reason, Zhou Xiao can be regarded as pulling down his face, in the days before the broadcast of "The Fifth Lesson of Public Security", he took his crew to land on various variety shows on Japanese TV in a large and intensive manner. Especially in the two variety shows before the TV series was broadcast, he even took Erika Toda to participate in it, and asked this show to make a two-hour special version for the two.
He has this qualification, not only because this variety show is followed by his TV series. What's more, because this variety show is called "itteQ", it was planned and founded by Zhou Xiao, and even discovered the variety show of Ayako Imoto, the soul of the show, from the bottom. From this point of view, there is nothing wrong with saying that Zhou Xiao is the father of "itteQ", participating in the show in this capacity, not to mention anything else, just as soon as Zhou Xiao appeared in the studio, it was enough to make everyone in the studio give a standing ovation to welcome.
The show "itteQ", of course, focuses on traveling and exploring everywhere, experiencing things that have never been done before, Zhou Xiao and Erika Toda participated in this show, of course, they will use the same way, so they ......
Before recording the show in the studio, Zhou Xiao went on a trip with Erika Toda.
Of course, it's not just the two of them, in addition to Zhou Xiao and Toda, there are about a dozen people from the entire "itteQ" crew, this show is the main variety show on the Japanese TV, and the ratings have been very good since the start of the broadcast, and the corresponding various investments are also very large.
Although he was traveling with someone to do the show, Zhou Xiao, who had a private jet, did not take a passenger plane to the destination like the crew, he took Toda on his own private jet.
This is a special case...... If it is placed on others, other people may be very unhappy, but when this kind of special case is placed on Zhou Xiao, everyone takes it for granted, or if Zhou Xiao does not have this special treatment, it will feel a little strange, for example, if Zhou Xiao does economy class with the crew......
Not to mention economy class, even if Zhou Xiao takes Toda to take business class, I'm afraid it will make people feel strange, rich people with private jets, in fact, there is no need to take this.
Originally, the TV station still wanted to make a small link around Zhou Xiao's private jet, but Zhou Xiao thought about it and refused, taking Erika Toda on his own private jet is a little unsuitable to say, the agency will not prevent the actors from falling in love, but if possible, I am afraid that no agency will want its own actors, especially the main actresses, to fall in love before the age of thirty, and of course it is impossible for the fans to hope that their favorite actresses are in love with men, I don't want to hear even the slightest hint of this.
Another reason for taking his own private jet to the filming location is that Zhou Xiao is relatively close to the place where Toda and the others went, because this place is ...... China.
"itteQ" is actually a program that rarely goes to China, China has endless magnificent scenery, but the Japanese, especially Japanese TV people, always have a big problem if they want to go to China for filming, although there are also many variety shows that have a good relationship with the mainland, but "itteQ", which has just been running for a few years, is not among them.
As for the destination of Zhou Xiao and Toda's trip this time, after thinking about it, the place he finally circled fell on Shudu in the hinterland of China, in fact, the destination that Zhou Xiao really wanted to go to was not here, but ...... There is not far from the vicinity of Shudu.
Because it won't be long before that shocking disaster is coming.
Same as 911. Zhou Xiao still can't do anything, he can't even go for a walk and take a look, with his identity, he can't even do something similar to when 911 happened.
From crossing to the present, Zhou Xiao hated his nationality for the first time, if he was Chinese, even if he arranged some coincidences in advance, he could do something locally, but now he is Japanese, bearing this identity. He couldn't do anything, he didn't dare to do anything.
Zhou Xiao, who had no choice, had no choice but to come to the nearby Shudu to make a show to take a look at this place before the tragedy, and by the way, he also left an excuse for his concern for this side in the future, and now he ...... That's all there is to do, and as for the rest...... We'll have to wait until something happens.
Is it painful? Helpless? Zhou Xiao didn't even have a way to comfort himself, and there was no one to share and bear this pain.
During Cheng Dù's two days, Zhou Xiao's mood was actually very bad, although the mood was very bad, but his professionalism still forced him to cheer up. has completed the filming of the entire variety show, and as for the time outside of filming, he will not have a good face.
Such a big star is in a bad mood, don't mention the atmosphere of the entire program group. Everyone is cautiously accompanying Zhou Xiao, if it weren't for the fact that Zhou Xiao's appearance was normal during the filming of the show, and the show effect was very good, I'm afraid this filming would not have continued.
Erika Toda was also scared in her heart.
It's not the first time Toda and Zhou Xiao have worked together. When Zhou Xiao filmed "The Queen's Classroom", Toda was one of the very important young actors, and now several years have passed. The once little actor has grown into a slim beauty, but the little director who once debuted has also become a super director who shocked Japan, if you want to say that the two have changed so far, Zhou Xiao's changes can be said to be greater.
There are almost no people in the Japanese entertainment industry who do not worship or envy the legend of Zhou Xiao, especially considering that Horikita and Yui Aragaki, who were acting under Zhou Xiao with her, were both artists under Zhou Xiao, and they were even more unbalanced in their hearts, plus Zhou Xiao had cooperated with Nagasawa in "Marriage Proposal" before, this drama may be just one of Zhou Xiao's countless legendary TV series in the eyes of others, but what Toda really cares about is that Zhou Xiao has said in more than one place, "Marriage Proposal" is his favorite of all his works, and handing over the heroine of his favorite work to Chang Ze, this woman undoubtedly has a very important weight in his heart. So, among the so-called four pillars, Toda's personality was originally the strongest and most powerful, but in cooperation with Zhou Xiao, she fell behind the other three, which made Toda the most unwilling.
Then, Zhou Xiao's invitation finally came, the new drama, "The Fifth Lesson of Public Security"! Heroine! Moreover, this drama is also the opening work of the entire series! In the future, if you invite Takuya Kimura or Masaharu Fukuyama to play as Zhou Xiao said, these people will be behind her! What a surprise and surprise this alone! Zhou Xiao directed him...... Sure enough, I still like myself!
The excited Toda nodded and took the play as a matter of course, and started the filming of the TV series under Zhou Xiao's hands.
There is not much to say about the filming work in general, but what really made Toda cautious was the act of going to China to do a variety show.
Because...... Zhou Xiao actually invited himself to take his private jet!!
If it is on the street, it will be much easier for a man driving a sports car to invite a woman to get in the car, let alone Zhou Xiao using a private jet to invite him? Since receiving Zhou Xiao's invitation, the excitement in Toda's heart has not calmed down even a little.
"At that time, there are only me and Zhou Xiao on the plane except for the crew, if he really wants to do something, will I agree? No, or rather, if he really wants to do something for me, what kind of effort am I going to cater to him? Is it a reserved point, or an unrestrained point? What type does he like? By the way, be sure to wear your most expensive Victoria's Secret limited edition before you get on the plane! ”
With this thought, Toda followed Zhou Xiao on the plane like a little daughter-in-law.
"Sit casually, eat and play whatever you want, just tell the crew, I'm a little tired, take a rest first." After Zhou Xiao, who got on the plane, turned around and said a word to Toda, he threw her there and got into a room in the cabin that only he could enter, leaving Toda standing there alone in a daze.
He ...... He didn't mean that? Then why did he invite me to fly? No, his face was so bad just now! God, I didn't offend him somewhere, did I? Toda was terrified.
As a result, Toda didn't eat well along the way, and no one slept well, and Zhou Xiao, who got into his small room, also had no intention of sleeping, lying on the bed alone, looking at the blue sky outside the window, he was used to seeing this scenery too many times, what he was thinking about, what he was worried about, in fact, had nothing to do with Toda, that girl, she was purely thinking too much.
It's just that this kind of thing, Zhou Xiao won't care too much about it now, because Shudu is about to arrive. (To be continued......)
