At the beginning of August, a week after meeting Takeshi Kitano at the last summer festival, Shirakawa Kaede sat down with the senior brother again.

The location has also changed from Asakusa last time to the current Kanagawa Shonan Coast.

This is where the movie was filmed, and the sea, the beach, and the waves that rise and fall are perfectly in line with all of Kitano's imagination of the sea.

The location is also very close to Tokyo, no more than an hour away, making it easy for people to travel between the two places.

Especially Shirakawa Kaede, he also has to take care of the Ota Ward side. It's close, and you can rush back quickly if there's anything you want.

Fortunately, it's summer vacation and I don't have to go to class, except for Shirakawa Electric, it's the movie here.

He has plenty of energy to deal with these things, but if there are any, he has to talk to this senior brother in advance. Shirakawa Kaede was afraid that he would not talk about martial arts again.

Shirakawa Kaede found Takeshi Kitano, who was pointing at the coast with the crew, "Senior Brother Kitano." ”

Takeshi Kitano, who was wearing a t-shirt and sandals, turned around and greeted him from afar, "What's the matter, Shirakawa boy." ”

"About the shooting..."Shirakawa Kaede stopped talking.

Kitano Takeshi explained a few words to the crew around him, and then nodded and signaled the other party to get busy first.

Seeing that he was free, Shirakawa Kaede walked up to his side and stood side by side with him, looking at the rough sea.

"Senior Brother Kitano, the movie is about to start shooting, but there are some things that need to be said first."

Shirakawa Kaede was poured into a mouthful of salty sea breeze and almost coughed.

Well, it's the sea with a smell.

"Eh, boy Shirakawa, do you still have an opinion on the movie? Let's hear it. The ambitious Takeshi Kitano waved his hand and signaled that Shirakawa Kaede had something to say.

The crew is about to start filming, and seeing his subordinates full of dozens of people circling around him, Takeshi Kitano is full of spirits, and his tone of voice is much louder.

"Now, senior brother, you know it too. I have other things to do, and school is going to open later, so the shooting cycle can't be too long. ”

Shirakawa Kaede looked at Takeshi Kitano and raised two fingers, "Two months at most, and it's best to finish filming before the end of September." Brother, look..."

Kitano Takeshi looked at him funny, this kid didn't make a movie yet, and he began to give opinions.

However, this movie is more special, the difficult thing is to conceive, and it is actually very fast to shoot.

Many of the scenes are almost in the same place, and there is very little dialogue.

In this way, a lot of time is reduced for scene transitions, such as the Shonan coast at your feet.

According to Kitano's estimates, more than half of the film's footage will be completed here, so the filming time of the entire film will not even take two months.

However, he didn't say anything immediately, but nodded quietly and motioned for Shirakawa Kaede to continue.

Seeing Takeshi Kitano nodding, Shirakawa Kaede was not polite, and continued to make three chapters with him, "In addition, except for this movie, I won't appear again in the future." ”

"Ahem..."Shirakawa Kaede coughed lightly, "After all, I'm also the president of the company." ”

"Haha" Takeshi Kitano laughed directly, he reached out and patted Shirakawa Kaede's shoulder, "Shirakawa boy, you still have the posture of the president." ”

After laughing, he nodded again, "I know, the crew will give priority to filming your scenes." After all, we can't disturb the work of our president, San. ”

Speaking of which, the Shirakawa boy was still semi-forcibly abducted by himself, so he should take care of it.

As long as there is no conflict with the filming of the crew, he doesn't care about these things.

Hearing Takeshi Kitano's assurance, Shirakawa Kaede breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh yes, the promotion of the senior brother movie in the future doesn't have to focus on me, you know..."

"Understood" Kitano Takeshi glanced at him ambiguously, "Yuko Tanaka is there, the later publicity will take care of it, don't worry." ”

Shirakawa Kaede was a little embarrassed by Takeshi Kitano, but he didn't bother to explain, so be it.

According to Shirakawa Kaede's prediction, the filming of the movie is completed, and it just so happens that the research and development of the Walkman there of Shirakawa Electric should also have eyebrows.

He couldn't help with the research and development, so he could only rely on Yamazaki Hui, a high-achieving student, to overcome it.

The obsidian record player thing is on the right track, just run it step by step, and Hasegawa Hiroshi will take care of it.

There are senior brothers and sisters in finance and personnel, and he is relatively relieved. Besides, he himself goes back to Ota Ward every day, so he can take care of it completely.

So taking advantage of the gap between these two months, Shirakawa Kaede had the energy to participate in Takeshi Kitano's film.

Schedule time or something, he has already calculated it tightly, perfect~

As soon as the conversation with Takeshi Kitano ended, he began to be busy with the crew's arrangement non-stop.

There is no official shooting today, but the scenery is selected in advance. But even so, Takeshi Kitano is still busy.

The first time I worked as a director, I was still as a mancai. Many veteran people in the crew actually disdain him in their hearts, and some look down on this mancai.

The people arranged by Sen Changxing are good to say, after all, they have cooperated, and everyone has some friendship.

However, there are still some staff who are from Shochiku.

Shochiku is one of the oldest studios in the RB film industry, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a living fossil in the film industry.

And the behind-the-scenes staff who worked there, compared to his peers, already felt that they were old and had a high opinion of themselves.

What's more, it's a comic talent like Takeshi Kitano as the director, although everyone doesn't say it, but they have always secretly despised it in their hearts.

This didn't take Takeshi Kitano for a while, and there were shouts of various questions in the venue from time to time.

"Kitano-san, it's too bad, the film with me is not the right size, and I may not be able to shoot it tomorrow."

"Why don't you check in advance?!"

"Who would have thought that there would be a problem with the film that producer Sang bought?"

“…”

"Kitano-san, the camera position here is not very reasonable, I haven't shot like this before."

"Kitano-san, I suggest adding a little top-down shot, there are too many static shots, and the audience will doze off~"

…

In just an hour, Takeshi Kitano, who was still in high spirits just now, was overwhelmed by various problems.

It's just that he can't be angry with everyone directly, he knows that these thorns are waiting for him, a rookie, to make a fool of himself.

Takeshi Kitano, whose face was flushed with a sullen face, walked around on the beach with his waist crossed like an angry bull.

The originally soft gray-black sand beneath his feet was like being ploughed all over again, and it was full of ravines.

"Senior Brother Kitano, don't give up, remember the spirit of the Showa boy."

Shirakawa Kaede couldn't give him any advice, so he could only encourage him like this.

If he is stumped by the first hurdle as a director, it will be troublesome, and I don't know how long the filming cycle will drag on.

Hearing Shirakawa Kaede's cheering voice, Kitano Takeshi was stunned.

Then he touched his head, as if he had thought of something. "Shirakawa boy, you're right, how could the Showa boy be stumped by these."

After that, he continued to go to Sen Changxing and discuss it with them.

Shirakawa Kaede, who was looking at this scene, smacked his lips, and this senior brother Kitano didn't know what to do again.
