Chapter 224: The screenwriter who is best at women's plays

The next day, sure enough, the entertainment section of major newspapers reported on the awards of the Japanese Drama Life Award.

The youngest winner of the Best Actor Award and the two Best Actor Award winners have attracted enough attention to this year's Japanese Drama Life Awards, and one of the organizers of the Japanese Drama Life Awards, the sales of the new issue of the TV magazine "Broadcast Life" after the award ceremony have also increased by a full third.

And the news that "Homeless Child" missed out on the Best Screenplay Award and the Best Work Award has also been affected, and many reporters described the work as "unpopular" as the failure to win the two most critical awards.

After all, the ratings and social impact of "Homeless Child" are rare, but some people believe that ratings do not mean everything, although the drama "Homeless Child" has high ratings, it is still lacking in terms of plot rigor, and some plots are slightly bloody and far-fetched, so it is not incomprehensible to give awards to other works, and awards are not ratings-only.

Even "Star News" published such a comment to satirize Kei Fujiwara's failure to win the award, with the title: "Kei Fujiwara's failure to win the award reflects the professionalism of the judges of the Japanese Drama Life Awards".

"Since Kei Fujiwara's debut, all the TV dramas he has created have been purely entertaining, and although they are interesting, they are not profound. "Long Vacation" tells the story of a complex relationship between men and women; "Renzaburo Furuhata" is a detective catching criminals; "The Lonely Gourmet" is even less profound, with an elderly uncle looking around for food."

"Although the feelings expressed in this "Homeless Child" are very moving, the story is too legendary and bloody, and there is still no profound idea at all. As an audience, I may think it's okay, but as a professional film critic, I can't help but feel a little shallow."

"Some people say that Kei Fujiwara may become a writer and screenwriter at the level of a national teacher, but with all due respect, a work needs to be able to do both [social reflection] and [educating the people] in order to be qualified to be called a national teacher. But if you look at all of Kei Fujiwara's works, it seems that none of them meet this standard."

"'Homeless Kids' seems to have a tendency to explore a certain theme, such as 'The Survival of Orphaned Children,' but it fails to delve into these topics. This has also led to the fact that Kei Fujiwara has not been able to come up with a work that can really point to the hearts of the people, and it seems that there is still some time to go before the title of national teacher. Maybe you can reach it in two years, maybe five years, maybe you can't write a profound work in your lifetime."

"Let's wait and see!"

"Star News" is the newspaper group behind Star Channel, and you can tell by looking at the name that this TV station is named after the newspaper. Soon the starry station is about to fight a new round of ratings war with Fukuyama station, so the spearhead of the newspaper has also begun to point at Kei Fujiwara, the enemy general.

Kei Fujiwara read the article in the newspaper and threw it aside, not caring very much. The belittlement of the enemy is sometimes a compliment.

With his current status in the broadcasting industry, the number of awards is no longer the most important thing. Winning an award is good, icing on the cake; It's not worth regretting not winning the award. ….

Kei Fujiwara didn't particularly care.

What's more, the Japanese Drama Life Award is not the only Japanese drama award, and there will be a Japanese Drama Academy Award waiting for him soon.

The most critical task now is to shoot "Naoki Hanzawa" well.

The spring file is getting closer and closer, and the first episode of "Naoki Hanzawa" has been filmed and edited, and it has entered the storage stage, and the filming of the second episode has begun. And the main dramas of NBC and Starry Channel are also being filmed.

This winter will soon pass, and soon the time will come when the bayonets will be red.

"Housewife Mita" has been broadcast to the ninth episode, and more and more advertising sponsors have come up, and even the "famous craftsman" who had withdrawn his investment before proposed to add patch ads at the beginning of this drama, but he is still not optimistic about the drama "Naoki Hanzawa".

As the main service, Yoko Matsuo has become the biggest beneficiary in addition to the TV station and the main creative group, and during the TV series is still broadcasting, Yoko Matsuo has gained a lot of endorsements and film and television resources.

Many TV series have already begun to schedule Yoko Matsuo's next play, and they are all main roles.

In this book

, it is very rare for an actress over the age of 30 to serve as the first main officer, mainly because most of the actresses in this age group are married, and after marriage, many artists will announce their retirement. Even if you don't retire, fans will leave a lot, and your career will be much worse than before.

Older actresses are not welcome in the film and television industry, and the root problem is not fans, but many screenwriters and directors, who simply do not create stories with older women as the protagonists.

Even if there are such stories, most of the heroines are miserable, sympathetic, embarrassed, and sometimes even annoying.

On the other hand, the stories of many men in their forties and fifties often reflect his mature, intelligent and charismatic side.

Is this discrimination? Not really. Not discrimination, but neglect. Most people can't imagine what it is like to be a woman who has lost her youth and is still attractive.

I can't imagine it, and naturally I can't write such a story.

On the other hand, even if it is written, it may not be liked by the audience.

Not only do male viewers dislike it, but even female viewers may not like it.

In fact, when "Housewife Sanda" first came out, many people were puzzled, why did they find an actress who had made a comeback to serve as the main officer?

Isn't it fragrant to find actresses in the prime of their youth, such as Ma Katsuka, Minami Kudo, and Aoi Kono, to take on the main role?

An actress who has been away from the entertainment industry for so long, the role she plays is probably not a girl, right? Will there be an audience that will love to watch such a drama?

However, after the show was broadcast, Mita, who was expressionless and iron-hearted but omnipotent, convinced the hearts of the audience in a short period of time, and many viewers hoped that they would also have a housewife Mita at home to solve all the troubles in their lives.

Mita, played by Yoko Matsuo, also reversed the audience's prejudices, and by now, no one has questioned the age of the heroine.

First "Homeless Child", and then "Housewife Mita", both dramas play female roles, and because of this, some media have called Kei Fujiwara "the screenwriter who is the best at writing women's plays".

The title was originally a media tribute to Kei Fujiwara's delicate brushwork and ability to portray female characters, but as time passed, some people began to use the title to satirize Kei Fujiwara.

"So good at writing women's plays, why don't you become women?"

"It's just that because I'm not good at writing men's plays, Kei Fujiwara can't write blood-pumping plots at all."

"I hope he can come up with more imposing works, instead of a bunch of bloody dramas, otherwise I don't think he deserves the title of national teacher."

And not long after these remarks were made public, the promotional materials for "Hanzawa Naoki", a drama with almost all male actors, were officially rolled out.

There are almost no female characters in the promotional poster, and Naoki Hanzawa in the center of the poster frowns and looks ahead, as if he is torturing something. Under the portrait, in addition to the title of the play "Hanzawa Naoki", there is also a line of artistic words, which is very eye-catching, and the words are also very impactful.

"A tooth for a tooth, a tenfold return!"

Is this a professional drama?.
