Nanami Hashimoto stood in the corner with trepidation and looked at the busy shooting scene in front of her, full of nervousness and uneasiness.

Previously, because Qianye asked Kyoko Fukada to take care of Nanami Hashimoto, Kyoko Fukada took Nanami Hashimoto to the filming locations of some film and television series when she had the opportunity to familiarize herself with what the real shooting was like. This time, Kyoko Fukada took Nana Hashimoto to the filming site of the Taiga drama "Yae no Sakura", which was being filmed.

Taiga Drama is the name of a series of dramas produced annually by NHK since 1963. Taiga dramas aired for 45 minutes every Sunday at 7 p.m. and produced about 50 episodes a year.

Taiga drama is mainly based on historical figures or an era as the theme, to reflect the changes of the times in which they live, and it is a relatively rigorous drama, and NHK has produced more than 50 Taiga drama works until now. The main themes are mostly stories from the Warring States period that everyone loves to watch, followed by stories from the end of the shogunate, and there are not a few adapted from history. In terms of casting, most of them are powerful actors.

The concept of Taiga drama is said to have originated from Dahe. Dahe dramas are mostly adapted from some history, but history is not necessarily Dahe. At present, the concept of Taiga drama has simply referred to a large-scale television series that runs for a long time and has a strong cast. Most of them have rigorous historical research and can be used as textbooks. And the actor will also feel honored for starring in the Dahe drama, which is a supreme affirmation of acting skills.

Due to the sluggish ratings in recent years, a large number of idol actors have been used, and there are a lot of empty (fictional) parts in the story, and there are many criticisms, so some people once put forward the "Dahe Abolition Theory", thinking that the filming of Dahe dramas should be stopped. In particular, between 1984 and 1986, three consecutive Dahe dramas were modern dramas. For this reason, NHK has opened up a period of "Shuiyao period dramas", and has also done three costume dramas, and most of the actors have participated in the performance of Dahe dramas, making the status of the three Shuiyao period dramas comparable to Dahe dramas in substance.

In June 2011, NHK released the 2013 Taiga drama "Yae no Sakura", which depicts the life of Yae Shinjima in the Meiji era. The intention of this project is derived from the Tohoku earthquake on March 11, 2011. And the star actor who plays the heroine Yae Shinjima is Haruka Ayase of Kyoko Fukada's office.

"It's a pity that Nanamin, you have been learning acting skills with Hitomi-san Kuroki last year, otherwise, I would have been able to bring Nanami Min and you to make a cameo appearance in the "Ping Qingsheng" I participated in last year." Kyoko Fukada looked at Nanami Hashimoto's nervous appearance, and in order to relieve her tension, she joked with Nanami Hashimoto.

"Sister Kyoko, you're kidding, it's impossible for NHK to accept this kind of cameo casually, right?" Regarding what Kyoko Fukada said about making a guest appearance in the Taiga drama, although Nanami Hashimoto was very moved in his heart, he still shook his head quickly.

Nana Hashimoto, who is already familiar with the rules of the entertainment industry, knows how strict NHK's requirements for Taiga dramas are, and even if it is just a small cameo, it is almost impossible for a girl idol like herself with no acting experience to get the opportunity to appear.

"Nanamin, don't be presumptuous. If you want to make a cameo, there's still a chance. Kyoko Fukada looked at the intention in Nanami Hashimoto's eyes, and said to her with a smile on her face: "With the relationship of Chiya-san, if he is willing to help, let alone just a cameo, even some less important supporting roles can be obtained." Nanamin, don't you want to try it? ”

"But am I really up to the task?" Although I've been learning acting with Hitomi Kuroki for nearly a year, Nana Hashimoto still doesn't have much confidence in her acting skills: "If I cause NG, it will be troublesome, right?" Forget it. Saying that, Nana Hashimoto shook his head, dispelling the little bit of emotion in his heart.

"You don't have to worry about this, it's normal for NG on the set." Kyoko Fukada doesn't seem to be worried about Nanami Hashimoto's concerns: "As for Nanamin's acting skills, I really believe in Hitomi-san's ability of Kuroki. Nanamin, you've been taught by Hitomi-san Kuroki for nearly a year, and you still have the acting skills to make a cameo, right? ”

Although Nanami Hashimoto nodded, she still said with some uneasiness: "But I haven't acted before, is it too hasty to make a cameo appearance in a Taiga drama for the first time?" ”

Kyoko Fukada heard Nana Hashimoto say this, and after thinking for a while, she nodded: "It's not okay to be hasty, but since Nana Min said so, let's go to Xiao Yao and ask to see what she means." ”

Kyoko Fukada said this, and took Nanami Hashimoto to Haruka Ayase, who was sitting on the shooting site reading the script and waiting for the filming to start.

"Xiao Yao!" Kyoko Fukada greeted Haruka Ayase warmly, as two big actresses in the same office, the relationship between Kyoko Fukada and Haruka Ayase is still very good.

"Fukada-senpai! What are you doing here? Seeing the arrival of Kyoko Fukada, Haruka Ayase seemed very happy and greeted her warmly. But because there was a makeup artist behind her who was helping her fix her hairstyle, she didn't stand up, but just sat and greeted Kyoko Fukada.

Kyoko Fukada didn't mind, and after pulling a chair, she sat down next to Haruka Ayase, and at the same time beckoned Nanami Hashimoto: "Come on, Nana Min, let me introduce you." This is the same office as me, the heroine of the Taiga drama "Yae no Sakura", Haruka Ayase who plays the role of "Joan of Arc at the end of the Japanese shogunate" and "the first evil woman in the world" Yae Shinjima. ”

"Hello Ayase-senpai, I'm Nanami Hashimoto." Nana Hashimoto hurriedly said hello to Haruka Ayase, a big actress.

"Your name is Nanami Hashimoto?" Haruka Ayase glanced at Nana Hashimoto curiously and asked curiously, "Hello, I'm Haruka Ayase." ”

"Nanamin, your name is Xiao Haruka Ayase senior, call me Sister Kyoko, do you think Xiao Haruka's seniority is higher than mine? You're my sister, just call her sister. Seeing that Nanami Hashimoto was a little restrained in front of Haruka Ayase, he introduced Nanami Hashimoto to Haruka Ayase while joking: "Haruka, this is my sister I recognize, Nanami Hashimoto, just call her Nanamin." Don't look at her young age, but now the well-known idol is still a disciple of Hitomi Kuroki. ”

"I'm just learning acting from Sister Kuroki, and I'm not her disciple!" Hearing Kyoko Fukada say that she was a disciple of Hitomi Kuroki, Nanami Hashimoto hurriedly explained modestly, but Haruka Ayase looked at her even more because of Nanami Hashimoto's explanation.

"Hitomi Kuroki's seniors don't teach people acting skills casually, it seems that Nanamin, you have a good relationship with Hitomi Kuroki's seniors." Haruka Ayase said this, and looked at Kyoko Fukada again: "Then Fukada-senpai, is there anything you did with Nana Min coming to me today?" ”

"I've been taking Nana Min to get acquainted with the set recently, and today I'm bringing her over to see the filming of the Dahe drama." Kyoko Fukada nodded, glanced at Nanami Hashimoto, and then explained to Haruka Ayase: "But you can't learn anything just by looking at it, so I want to ask Haruka Ko for you to help Nanami Min make a cameo in the drama "Yae no Sakura", so that she can experience what it's like to shoot for real time." ”

Hearing Kyoko Fukada's request, Haruka Ayase didn't agree immediately, but frowned and looked at Nanami Hashimoto before looking at Kyoko Fukada: "Senior Fukada, you have also filmed Taiga dramas, and NHK is not easy to talk to!" If it's other dramas or movies, I definitely don't have a word when you speak, but I really don't have the ability to arrange people to come in, even if I'm the leading actor. ”

"I know, so I just need Xiao Yao to say hello to the screenwriter and director." Kyoko Fukada didn't care about what Haruka Ayase said, and smiled at her: "As for NHK, if someone from the Chinese ethnic group comes forward, do you think it's still a problem?" ”

Hearing Kyoko Fukada say this, Haruka Ayase hesitated for a moment and nodded: "If it's just to say hello to the screenwriter and director, of course it's okay." However, on NHK's side, even if there are Chinese people who come forward, if the identity is not enough, NHK will not sell this face, right? ”

"On this point, Xiao Yao, you can rest assured, in terms of the relationship between Nana Min and the Chinese people, NHK will definitely sell this face." Kyoko Fukada, who knows something about Senya's identity and the relationship between him and the Chinese family, doesn't care about Haruka Ayase's worries, because she knows that if Qianya speaks, the entire Chinese family will be on the side of Nanami Hashimoto.

This was profoundly reflected in the fact that Masahiko Kondo offended Mai Shiraishi at a Chinese party last year and was brutally banned by the Chinese. Kyoko Fukada, who knows that the relationship between Nanami Hashimoto and Chiya is more intimate than the relationship between Mai Shiraishi and Chiya, is naturally confident that Senya can settle NHK.

Seeing that Kyoko Fukada was so confident, Haruka Ayase naturally didn't want to say anything, so she nodded and agreed: "In that case, I will talk about it with Mumi-san Yamamoto and director Taku Kato, who are the screenwriters." But I'm going to try Nana Min's acting skills first, Fukada-senpai, you know, this is NHK's Taiga drama, and I can't afford to joke. ”

"Xiao Yao, if you want to try Nanamin's acting skills, of course you can, but I have deep confidence in the disciples taught by Hitomi Kuroki!" Kyoko Fukada became happy when she saw Haruka Ayase agree. As for Haruka Ayase saying that she wanted to try Nanami Hashimoto's acting skills, this is also what it should mean, Kyoko Fukada is still quite confident in the acting skills that Nana Hashimoto was taught by Hitomi Kuroki.

Nana Hashimoto on the side persuaded Haruka Ayase to help him get a cameo in the Taiga drama without seeing Kyoko Fukada, and at the same time he was full of gratitude to Kyoko Fukada and Haruka Ayase, the two seniors, he couldn't help but get excited.
