Chapter 7: Are you still making movies?
At eight o'clock in the evening, Ono Bookstore closed early, and Nagaharu Ohno and Kei Fujiwara went to a nearby izakaya.
In front of each of them, there were two large glasses of draft beer and a small plate, and there were only three chicken skewers in the plate, just this glass of wine and three skewers, and most of them said that they ate it all night.
Following the local customs, Fujiwara Kei also followed the example of the people around him, and carefully snorted the meaty bamboo skewers.
"Hiss ~ hiccup" Nagaharu Ohno poured half a glass of beer in one go, and his face immediately became flushed.
Kei Fujiwara smiled disdainfully, and said in his heart that his alcohol consumption was really a crumb. Then I drank half a glass as well, but within two minutes I felt my cheeks burn.
This body, it seems, the liver is not good......
Kei Fujiwara's eyelids were slightly sticky, but he was still conscious.
The TV in the izakaya is on, and it is playing a prime-time TV drama on Fukuyama TV on Saturday, and the heroine is the popular idol Katsura Arima.
"Miss Guixiang, I love you~" Not far away, a drunk man stood up and stretched out his hands towards the TV screen, with an idiot on his face.
Two of his companions quickly got up and pressed him to their chairs.
"Idiot! What are you doing! β
"It's a shame!"
"Woooooooooo......oo I'm actually Ma Guixiang's boyfriend outside the circle. The man burst into tears.
"Bastard, I said it was Takako Matsu's boyfriend last week, so soon I empathized and didn't fall in love?"
"Arima...... Cinnamon...... Hiccup......" Nagaharu Ohno looked at the TV with a confused look in his eyes, "I've seen her...... She was still a flat-chested ...... When did it get this big? β
Fujiwara Kei only said when he was drunk: "Yes, when have you seen her." β
"Five or six years ago, when she was still making her debut, I saw her work at the PEER Film Festival, how young she was at that time......
Fujiwara Kei was stunned, it didn't sound like nonsense, he said it with a nose and eyes.
However, in this book, it is not uncommon to meet a star. If you go around the Tokyo port area for a day, you can always meet a star idol producer or something, and I've seen it but not slept with it.
"Well, I thought about working with her at the time......" Nagaharu Ohno muttered.
"Cooperate with what?"
Nagaharu Ohno turned his head away: "It's nothing. β
Kei Fujiwara picked up another meat skewer and stuffed it into his mouth, and also looked up at the screen with a lazy expression on Katsura Yuma's moving face.
Arima Guixiang's acting skills can only be said to be acceptable, but that face is indeed exceptional.
Kei Fujiwara seems to have read about this star in a magazine, she seems to have been born in Tokyo's famous Kabuki family "Hakuzuruya", that beautiful face is a treasure passed down from generation to generation, and everyone in the family is very good-looking.
Fujiwara Kei also saw her father and brother on TV not long ago, and in terms of appearance, the family is indeed a demon.
An episode was quickly broadcast, and Nagaharu Ohno said: "The story is not bad, but the director's technique is too inferior, the lens language is better than nothing, meaningless close-ups, long shots longer than toilet paper...... Haha, the gaffer is also a waste, and the foundation on Miss Arima's face is about to be baked......"
Nagaharu Ohno refuted the director of the TV series, when a passing girl looked at them and cast a surprised look.
Fujiwara Kei thought he had disturbed her, and just wanted to remind Ohno Nagaji, when the girl spoke, "Is it Ohno-kun?" β
Nagaharu Ohno looked back, and when he saw the girl's face, his shoulders trembled visibly.
Then he stood up a little bewildered: "Kono-san...... Is it? β
The girl said, "It's really you, Ohno-kun, I thought I had the wrong person, but I didn't expect to meet here." β
Nagaharu Ohno looked a little overwhelmed, and his eyes became a little evasive: "Yes, it's really a coincidence......"
"Ohno-kun...... Are you still making movies? The girl asked suddenly.
Ohno Nagaji suddenly blushed, and said a little overwhelmed: "Don't shoot...... It was just a whim......"
"It's a pity, I think Ono-kun is a very talented person, and if you persist, you will definitely be able to achieve results." The girl looked a little lost, "I chose the profession of actor with the encouragement of Ohno-kun, although there are still no outstanding results, but I will not give up." Thank you so much for choosing me to be your heroine in the first place! β
As she spoke, the girl bowed deeply to Nagaji Ohno.
Nagaharu Ohno looked at the girl with a hint of pain in his complicated eyes.
When the girl had finished speaking, she went to her friend's table.
Ohno Nagaji sat down, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said, "Let's go." β
Kei Fujiwara asked, "Don't stay any longer?" β
"It's time to drink in a different place! I'm in for a treat! Nagaharu Ohno said a little anxiously as he pulled out a wallet.
Nagaharu Ohno left the izakaya like a deserter, and the two changed hotels, and Nagaharu Ohno ordered the wine and drank it cup by glass.
"I used to ...... has made movies, and he is a film director. Ohno Nagaji was slightly drunk and said suddenly.
"It's amazing, what's the name of the movie you made?"
"What's the name? It doesn't matter......" Nagaharu Ohno said in disappointment, "Anyway, no one remembers that kid except me...... I spent my entire youth writing the script for it, saved up for four years in college, and after graduation missed the best time to find a job and the last train to the bubble economy to shoot it...... Take it to the film festival and screen it......"
Two strings of snot suddenly burst out of Nagaharu Ohno's nostrils, "But no one remembers its name!" It didn't impress anyone! There is not even a person who scolds it, and there are people who scold bad movies! I'm not even as good as a bad movie! shitοΌοΌοΌ β
Ohno Choji was in tears, and Fujiwara Kei hurriedly handed over the tissue.
Nagaharu Ohno, who was already drowsy, pulled out the tissues one by one, and slapped them on his face, and the tissues immediately stuck to his face like a charm to seal zombies.
"I didn't give up, so I made another one and sold my beloved motorcycle...... I also cheated my dad out of money. That girl just now was my schoolgirl, the heroine of my movie. At that time, she could have gone to the news station to be a female anchor, but I told her that my work would definitely be a hit, so she finally gave up her job at the news station and worked part-time to make ends meet, while making movies for half a year......"
Although he also knew that the final result was not good, Fujiwara Kei couldn't help but ask, "What about later?" β
"I went to another film festival. This time, someone finally cares about my work......"
Nagaharu Ohno pulled the tissue off his face, revealing bloodshot eyes: "But the movie they scolded me for being a once-in-a-lifetime bad movie!" β
