"Newcomer?" Kei Fujiwara couldn't help frowning, "Can a newcomer be the chief director?"

"No, that's not what I mean." Yui Mizuhara said, "He's been in the industry for ten years, but he's always held the position of executive director and episode director, and this is the first time he's the chief director."

"Have you ever done anything before?"

"Kenji Takada's last drama seems to be the executive director he was responsible for." Yui Mizuhara said.

"Isn't Kenji Takada going to be in a new drama? Won't he follow?"

"Kenji Takada's new drama is directed by Wataru Sato, which round will win him." Yui Mizuhara said, "But he doesn't want to be subordinate to others all the time, to be an executive director, since he has enough qualifications, of course he wants to be the chief director, even if it's a new team, he's willing to join - that's what he said."

"It's honest." Fujiwara Keido, "Let's go meet him."

……

Hideaki Shibasaki has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his two eyebrows are thick and thick, as if they were brushed out of ink, and at first glance it looks a bit like an adult version of crayon Shin-chan.

Judging by his dress and demeanor, this man ...... He is upright, but he may not be a little flexible, but he has the spirit of study, and he is a traditional person who can strictly abide by the rules.

Such a person...... Is it suitable for artistic creation? Kei Fujiwara couldn't help but think to himself.

Shibasaki Hideaki picked up the teacup, took two sips, then put it in front of him, looked at Kei Fujiwara and said, "I've heard of Fujiwara-sensei's name for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be so young."

Kei Fujiwara nodded slightly, "What works has Shibasaki-kun directed?"

"I don't dare to be a director, I'm just a migrant worker in the crew." "When I first started in the industry, I was working on special effects, and I worked as an executive director on "Black Knight" and "Monster Green", and later on "The Three Kurosaki Brothers", "Murder Puzzle" and "In the Name of Love."

Shibasaki Hideaki paused and continued, "Actually, the fourth and fifth episodes of "The Three Kurosaki Brothers" were all directed by me."

Kei Fujiwara heard Yui Mizuhara say about this.

It is said that during the filming of "The Three Kurosaki Brothers", the original director seemed to have a conflict with the producer and was passive and slacking off, so the executive director quickly stepped up at the request of the producer, and finally the relationship between the two eased, and Shibasaki Hideaki continued to be his executive director.

Hideaki Shibasaki said: "I have been in the crew for many years, and although I dare not say how profound my attainments are, in terms of technology and experience, I am ready to become the chief director, and I am not to be honest, I was waiting for this day the moment I entered the broadcasting industry."

Obviously, Hideaki Shibasaki is afraid that his identity as a rookie chief director will not be trusted by Kei Fujiwara.

Kei Fujiwara said, "We are also a rookie team, Miss Mizuhara, you know, you have not been a producer for a long time, and you have never been exposed to TV drama projects; You've probably heard of it, and although I've written it, I'm also a rookie screenwriter. In the field of TV dramas, compared to us, you are an old man."

"Shibasaki-kun." Yui Mizuhara suddenly said at this time, "I heard one thing, Takata producer promised you to let you serve as the executive director of this drama first, and then shoot a new drama in the second half of the year, and recommend you to the station to become the chief director, is that so?"

Shibasaki nodded, "He did say that."

Yui Mizuhara was silent for a moment, "It seems that this time you took the initiative to apply to Taili to join us, and rejected Takata Producer, but chose us...... Can I hear your reasoning?"

Kenji Takada's promise is still trustworthy, and if he promises to recommend Hideaki Shibasaki to the station as the chief director in the second half of the year, if there are no accidents, it will be fulfilled.

And Kenji Takada's resources and connections are not comparable to Nihara's, he has a higher budget approval, and he can also cooperate with veteran screenwriters, from the perspective of ordinary people, it must be more reliable than working with newcomer groups such as Fujiwara Kei and Mizuhara Yui.

Shibasaki Hideaki held the teacup in both hands, was silent for a moment, and then looked up at the two casually: "Because I can't wait, and I see an opportunity in the two of you."

"Huh?" Kei Fujiwara tilted his head.

Shibasaki Hideaki looked at Yui Mizuhara and said, "Miss Mizuhara, as a woman, it's hard to work in the broadcasting industry, right?"

Yui Mizuhara was stunned.

"No offense, but it is." Hideaki Shibasaki said, "Women don't have an advantage in physical strength compared to men, and they are easily discriminated against or bullied. But even so, despite all the unfavorable conditions, Miss Suwon still managed to become a producer and came up with the No. 1 program in the same period. He also gained the trust of the senior management of the station, completed the transformation from a variety show producer to a TV drama producer, and also discovered the little-known Fujiwara teacher at that time. It's a testament to your vision and your abilities."

"As for Fujiwara-sensei." Hideaki Shibasaki slowly looked at Kei Fujiwara again, "Needless to say, he showed extraordinary talent at a young age, not only being able to write works like "White Night Walking", but also planning variety shows like "Human Observation". They have made me see the extraordinary potential of this team, so I would love to work with them."

Fujiwara Kei was stunned and glanced at Yui Mizuhara.

I didn't expect you to be so good at sycophants with thick eyebrows and big eyes!

But whether to say it or not, Kei Fujiwara and Yui Mizuhara who are patting this sycophant are extremely comfortable, especially Yui Mizuhara, whose complexion has become ruddy.

If Shibasaki Hideaki is a sleek and sophisticated person, this sycophant will not have much power, and Yui Mizuhara will only smile when she hears it, be polite, and will not go to her heart.

But Shibasaki Hideaki is a somewhat stubborn and rigid person, Ding is Ding Mao is Mao, and he is not very good at saying nice things to make people happy, this kind of person is very powerful whether he is lying or patting on the back.

Fujiwara Kei didn't shoot all over the body, and his muscles and bones were comfortable, but he didn't show it too much, just smiled slightly: "Shibasaki-kun has won the award, since that's the case, it's a good cooperation."

"It's a pleasure to work with."

Hideaki Shibasaki also stretched out his hand and shook hands with Kei Fujiwara and Yui Mizuhara respectively, and the three core creators established trust.

Casually, Kei Fujiwara took out the script and plan, "This is the script and plan for one or two episodes, please take a look."

"Okay." Hideaki Shibasaki took the script and read it seriously.

After a while, Shibasaki Hideaki looked at Kei Fujiwara in some surprise and said, "I heard that Fujiwara-sensei created independently?"

"Yes."

"It's very mature, very exquisite, and very in line with the tone of Japanese dramas, like a work polished by a highly mature team of screenwriters."

Eyes are really poisonous...... Fujiwara Kei said in his heart.

"Fujiwara-sensei came from a background in creating mystery stories, so when I heard that your script was about urban love, I was a little uneasy at first. But now it seems that I was overthinking. As long as the next scripts can be maintained at this level, I can guarantee that the ratings of this work will not be low."

The three of them talked about creation again, and Shibasaki Hideaki was addicted to cigarettes, so he subconsciously took out a cigarette from his pocket, but glanced at Yui Mizuhara and stuffed the cigarette case back again.

Seeing that the conversation was almost over, Yui Mizuhara said, "Okay, let's talk about it first, let's talk about the details of the shooting until the official planning meeting."

"Next, Fujiwara-kun and I will find a way to determine the actors, Shibasaki-kun, if you have your own team, you can also bring it to the crew, tell me in advance, and I will reserve a position for them."
