Aochigen and Miyazaki flew from Tokyo and landed in Kagoshima to meet Hisaishi.

This is also the first time Qing Zhiyuan has met Jean Hisaishi.

Jean Hisaishi, who was born in 1950, is 44 years old this year, which is the peak period of his life.

But the hair has long since fallen out, and now because the weather is cold, I wear a woolen hat on my head.

Dress more casually.

If you don't know his identity, you will only think that this guy is just an ordinary uncle.

If Hisaishi had taken off his hat, you'd think this guy was on the road.

However, Hisaishi was very gentle and kind when he smiled, and when he greeted Qing Zhiyuan, he also came up to give him a big hug.

This made Qing Zhiyuan have a lot of good feelings for him.

Miyazaki gave an introduction to the two of them, and then the group walked to the dock where the boat was going.

During the whole process, Qing Zhiyuan had been silently looking at Hisaishi, which made the middle-aged uncle a little shy.

"Qingsang, is there something wrong?"

"No, no, I just love your music." Qing Zhiyuan said, "I finally met the real person." ”

"Hahaha......"

Hisaishi and Miyazaki burst out laughing.

Then Hisaishi came over and patted Qing Zhiyuan on the shoulder, "Please take care of our journey this time." ”

"No, no, please take care of me."

If Tenmon (Atsushi Shirakawa) and Makoto Shinkai achieve each other, then Hayao Miyazaki and Jean Hisaishi are another pair of exemplars of mutual achievement.

In 1994, Hisaishi was already very famous.

In 1984, he began his first collaboration with Hayao Miyazaki, serving as the music supervisor of Miyazaki's first production, "Valley of the Wind", and the soundtrack set a record of 8th place on the Oricon chart.

In 1986, he served as the music supervisor of Hayao Miyazaki's work "Castle in the Sky" and composed the theme song "With You".

……

From 1992 to 1994, Hisaishi won the Best Music Award at the Japan Film Awards three consecutive years for his soundtracks for Takeshi Kitano's films "That Summer, Quiet Sea" and "Sonata" and Nobuhiko Obayashi's film "Youth Rock".

It's like hanging on.

He and Miyazaki are similar, they are both geniuses in their respective fields.

Wait a minute.

At this moment, Qing Zhiyuan followed behind the two masters, and suddenly thought of a question-

These two people don't think I'm a genius of the same type as them, do they?

But if you think about it, it's really possible.

After all, Qingzhiyuan is now the most eye-catching new star in the game industry, mainly because he is young and can produce a lot of powerful games.

What the hell am I ......

Qing Zhiyuan's whole person is not good at this moment.

I was so embarrassed that I wanted to pick out a one-bedroom and two-room room with my toes.

I'm just a copyist.

The reason why it gives people a very powerful feeling is that he will choose, and the ones he chooses are popular games that can make money, such as Diablo and Pokémon.

In terms of talent, there is no such thing as a young wisdom from asking.

Pokeni's real talent is the kind of Xuan Xubuchi and Jun Asaeda, and I just borrowed their aura to get to where I am today.

That's what I am,

How can He De be on a par with the masters and deserve their favor?

……

But......

In fact, Qing Zhiyuan himself is too self-inflicted.

Miyazaki invited him to Yakushima for no other reason, mainly because he was going to collect the style for "Princess Mononoke".

As one of the partners of this animated film, Miyazaki felt the need to pull him.

It also allows him to experience what he really wants to express, so as not to deviate when the game is made.

Hearing Miyazaki's words, Qing Zhiyuan blushed.

"Huh? Is that so? ”

Qing Zhiyuan felt that he had been hurt by 10,000 points.

It's heart-wrenching!

"Or else?" Miyazaki smiled, shoved a cigarette into his mouth, and held it in front of him like a hamster.

If you don't know it, you think this guy is holding a straw.

"Well, what kind of place is Yakushima?" Qing Zhiyuan let out a sigh.

In fact, he didn't dare to say a word-

I've watched your old "Princess Mononoke" 180 times, and I remember the content clearly, so it doesn't matter if you don't bring me with you.

I understand man and nature thoroughly.

"You'll know when the time comes." Hayao Miyazaki said with a smile.

……

A few people took a ferry from Kagoshima to Yakushima.

Sure enough, as Miyazaki said, the sea was foggy.

The weather is bad today, it's all clouds.

And it was pouring rain.

The hull of the ship shook badly, too.

Qing Zhiyuan originally wanted to go to the bow of the boat to experience the experience, but the captain said that it was better not to go out, because a big wave would knock you down.

It was indeed very bumpy, so Qing Zhiyuan could only shrink into the cabin.

However, looking at the position of the door, there is a hazy smoke and rain outside, which is actually quite meaningful.

Yakushima, also known as "Wailing Island", is the island with the highest rainfall in all of the neon, and is known by local residents as "rain for 35 days a month".

Because of its high precipitation and high altitude, the island is covered in clouds and mist throughout the year.

The rainy and changeable climate has made the residents of the island form the habit of carrying umbrellas when they go out, so before leaving, Miyazaki also instructed Qing Zhiyuan to prepare an umbrella by himself.

It's best to get a raincoat.

"Walking on the island on a rainy day, surrounded by crackling rain, the feeling of white noise, the feeling of rain hitting your body through your raincoat, is really wonderful." Miyazaki smiled and said, "You're going to love it." ”

Well?

Qing Zhiyuan's eyes fell into a blur, fantasizing about the scene depicted by Miyazaki.

It seems to be quite romantic.

The only fly in the ointment is, why are you here with two old men?

Moreover, in fact, Qing Zhiyuan himself didn't think too much about it.

How did an island with such a lot of rainfall become the filming location for "Princess Mononoke"?

When he watched the movie back then, he didn't have the impression of heavy rain.

It's also very interesting to say, although Qing Zhiyuan has lived in Neon for so long, and it is not the first time to go to the beach, but this is really the first time in his life to go to sea by boat.

I used to swim at the beach, play in the sand, and hug Nao Tsuda......

After actually going to sea, I really have a special feeling.

Especially when the ship left Kagoshima after traveling for a while, the entire sea was covered with fog.

You don't know where the direction is, and the hull of the ship is constantly shaking, and there is a kind of fear that comes from the heart.

This reminded Qing Zhiyuan of the Cthulhu mythos abroad.

It seemed as if in the next second, a terrifying and huge tentacle would stretch out from the bottom of the sea and gently roll the ship, and then drag it into the bottom of the sea.

Thinking of this, Qing Zhiyuan couldn't help but shudder.

……

However, it was really embarrassing to see the sea through the porthole, and Qing Zhiyuan still wanted to take a look outside.

So he got up, staggered down the aisle to the door of the cabin, and held the door with his hand to look out.

Well......

I really can't see anything.

But the sea breeze outside, with the rain, rushed in and poured him in the face.

"It's too stormy, isn't it?" Qing Zhiyuan shouted.

The crew stood outside and glanced at it and shouted, "It's not a wave, it's raining!" ”

"Is it raining so heavily?!"

"No, it's okay today!"

Ouch I'll go.

The weather is pretty good.

So can you go to Yakushima and see what Miyazaki wants?

At this moment, Qing Zhiyuan suddenly realized.

No wonder Miyazaki wants to stay on the island for a week.

It's too hard to wait until the weather clears.

……

While Aozhiyuan was sighing at the bow of the boat, Miyazaki was sitting in his seat, digging out a few apples from his bag.

Wrapped in a tissue and wiping it, Miyazaki handed one of them to Jean Hisaishi.

The latter took a bite and laughed.

The apples are small, green apples, and very astringent.

But the taste is just right.

Sour and sweet, and most importantly, crispy.

Miyazaki looked at Sei Chi Yuan at the door of the cabin and opened his mouth to call him over.

But after thinking about it, let's not bother this young man.

Miyazaki was very pleased to see that Sei Chigen was very interested in the sea.

A person, if he loves nature, then this person will not be far behind.

Think about it too.

If Qing Zhiyuan did not have this kind of careful observation of life and nature, and did not have enough understanding, he would not have been able to write works that touched people's hearts like CL.

I won't make a good galgame like "Your Name".

After a few seconds, Qing Zhiyuan returned.

But when he was on the road, due to the high wind and waves outside, the hull of the ship suddenly jolted.

With this bump, Qing Zhiyuan's whole person almost didn't tilt to the side and lay in the arms of a girl.

The other party was looking at him expectantly.

Who knew that Qing Zhiyuan held the back of the seat with his hand and held it stiffly.

"I'm sorry."

Qing Zhiyuan nodded politely and continued to return to his seat.

But at this moment, it was another upheaval.

It didn't matter, and the apples in Miyazaki's bag rolled out.

Impartiality landed right on Qing Zhiyuan's seat.

Because it was covered by the table, Qing Zhiyuan didn't see it, and sat down, screaming in pain.

Has Tom the Cat seen it?

It's the picture of Tom being pricked in the butt by a needle, and Qing Zhiyuan bounced up with a pout.

His whole being was going to crack.

Looking back, there was a small green apple that had been cracked open in the seat.

"Oh I'm going, who's it, the apple on the seat?!"

Miyazaki next to him saw Qing Zhiyuan's painful appearance, and couldn't help but turn his head to the side.

I didn't dare to laugh out loud with a wicked smile on my face.

It's just so hard.

……

When we arrived at Yakushima, it was pouring rain.

It's really pouring rain.

Although Miyazaki had already contacted the local accommodation, and there was a special person to pick him up, because of the heavy rain, the car was delayed for an hour on the road.

After a few people got into the car, they found that the rain was a bit outrageous.

How big is it?

Let's put it this way, when the wipers of a car are turned on at maximum frequency, the rain will spray onto the glass like a fire truck turning on the faucet.

I can't brush it at all.

It's like rushing to a waterfall.

Visibility was very low, and according to Qing Zhiyuan's feeling, except for the double flashing lights at the rear of the car that were on in front, it was raining all outside.

Nothing can be seen.

And half of the car was sunk in the rain, almost to the window.

In this case, it is really a miracle that the car is still moving forward.

Qing Zhiyuan couldn't help but sigh, he lived for more than 30 years in the first half of his life, and he lived for so many years after being reborn, and he had never seen such an outrageous rain in more than 40 years.

It's like a great flood back then.

Fortunately, the rain came quickly and violently, and it went quickly and violently.

It looked like it was about ten minutes, and the rain was clear.

Outside, there was a red glow in the sky.

Qing Zhiyuan realized that it was already evening.

He poked his head out and saw the fiery sky in the distance, and the auspicious clouds stretched out, like the six big wings of an angel, stretched out.

Rendered colorful by the sun, it is like a dream.

Below, high mountains clinging to the clouds in the sky.

He couldn't help but let out a sigh in his mouth-

"It's beautiful."

……

It was a bit late, and it was unlikely that they would want to see Jomon Sugi according to the original plan, so they had to go to the arranged hotel first and wait until the next day.

This time, Qing Zhiyuan and their luck were very good, although the weather forecast said that there might be heavy rain the next day, but in fact, the sun came out.

Miyazaki told him that the weather forecast at the beach was always not very accurate, and the specific situation still depended on the day.

So the group began to march towards Jomon Cedar.

Walking inside from the entrance, it takes about 10 hours to climb Jomonsugi and make a round trip.

When he heard that the whole process was 10 hours, Qing Zhiyuan was stupid.

And it's still walking!!

This Nima ......

What am I here for?

But looking back, Hisaishi made Uncle and Miyazaki still excited, the two of them were already almost 100 years old, and they were not afraid of the 10-hour journey.

Qing Zhiyuan is also really convinced.

……

At 4 o'clock in the morning, I set off before dawn, changed into shoes and trekking poles, and three men followed the guide behind.

Walk through the dense woods.

Qing Zhiyuan quickly understood the reason why Miyazaki chose this place -

Yakushima has a very large forest, and it is thought that it rains all year round and the air is humid, so the trees are lush and lichen, moss, and various vegetation grow very well.

Often, a large tree that falls crookedly is covered with more than 100 different species of fungi.

Some small mushrooms are really visible to the naked eye.

Moss plays a magical role in nourishing all things on this island.

When you are in it, you have a sense of being in a trance in the world of Princess Mononoke.

It seemed that as soon as he looked up, the next second Shan would rush out of the woods on a white wolf.

"Ah~ That's good, this island, Miyazaki-san, I can imagine that this work of yours in the future will be very good." Hisaishi said.

"Let's hope I can make good music too!"

……

————————————————————————

That's all there is to it today.

Chest pain, I don't know if it's caused by poor posture.

The blood pressure is a little high these days, and the doctor said to rest more.

I'll try to write as much as I can when I'm in good health.

Thank you

See you tomorrow
