1986, Create a Miss Tokyo Ichiban

Chapter 87

With the sacrifice of Maiko Ishihara, the filming of the entire crew immediately became smooth sailing.

What old man Ichikawa wanted was Kotone's face, which had a faint sense of elegance at a young age and hinted at a hint of adult charm.

So he agreed to Ishihara Maiko's request without much thought.

It's just that Maiko Ishihara did not replace Kotone Haru as the young Kaguya, but Maiko Ishihara was Kotone's stand-in.

In other words, in the shot of hatching from a big eggshell, Kotone only has one face.

Although old man Ichikawa also regrets that he cannot have a complete "original little Kaguya" shot.

In the end, I could only choose to use Ishihara Maiko to take a long shot.

"hateful!"

Ishihara and her daughter were so angry that they were trembling all over, but there was nothing they could do.

Because Kotone's little face is so beautiful, and the effect when Kotone speaks her lines is simply amazing.

Even Assistant Director Ishikawa, who was ready to find fault, believed that Kotone was born to eat this bowl of rice.

When Zhang Yu Qinyin puts on ancient costumes and speaks words that can only be said by adults, it really feels like there is an adult hidden in a child's body!
So although Assistant Director Ishikawa had his own purpose in recommending Ishihara Maiko, in order to preserve Kotone, the classic little Kaguya, he had to appease Ishihara and her daughter.

The entire crew has unanimously agreed that the main role of the girl Kaguya can only be Haru Yukotone.

But Kotone still slowly felt the targeting from Ishikawa, one of the assistant directors.

For example, it was clear that both she and Sawaguchi Yasuko got up late in the morning, but Ishikawa ignored Sawaguchi Yasuko and waited for Kotone to be alone before he came up to scold her.

Kotone listened obediently at first, but when Ishikawa used words that insulted his subordinates, Kotone immediately slapped him on the back of the head and left!
Later, while Kotone was eating snacks after the game, Ishikawa came over and scolded her in front of everyone.

Kotone simply hid behind Kageda Hiroichi and continued eating.

Ishikawa was about to continue the "pursuit", but Supervisor Ichikawa gently said: "Enough is enough."

At night, when Yasuko Sawaguchi "comforted" Kotone, Kotone knew the reason for the matter.

Ishikawa is responsible for the crew's internal affairs and even casting, and is very powerful in the crew.

Kageda Koichi was a temporary member of the team, but he managed to work under Director Ichikawa and took away a lot of power from Ishikawa.

The overt and covert fighting between the two assistant directors naturally divided the cast and crew into factions.

Kotone and Miho are both recognized as members of the Kageda School.

It's just that Miho has Torii watching over her at all times, and Torii accepts all the "special care" from Ishikawa.

After listening to Sawaguchi Yasuko's analysis, Zhang Yu Kotone almost sprayed the entire group to death with a mouthful of salt soda.

What Jingtian faction! ! !

She is independent, okay!

Damn it, that guy Kageda Koichi must be hiding and laughing behind him, right? !
Early the next morning, before Kotone could figure out how to deal with Ishikawa, Nakayama Miho sneaked over.

"Nani?"

"Deputy Director Ishikawa is a big fan of "Detective Conbei"?"

Miho Nakayama nodded: "Yes! Because he is too busy at work, he will ask someone to buy a copy of the book to read. And he does not allow others to discuss the new plot of "Detective Conbei" in front of him."

Qinyin wondered: "Why?"

"Because Deputy Supervisor Ishikawa hates spoilers the most, he said he can successfully guess who the prisoner is every time."

After Miho Nakayama left, Kotone touched her chin.

Speaking of which, Father’s new single should have been released on Christmas, right?
Do you hate spoilers?

The shooting plan for the next day included shots of Kotone.

In the original shooting plan, the crew prepared a five- or six-year-old girl.

But after Kotone was born, Director Ichikawa changed this age to eight years old.

The so-called "egg" is actually a meteorite that fell from the sky to the grave of the youngest daughter of an ancient couple.

The husband discovered that the meteorite cracked open and there was a baby inside. In a matter of ten seconds, he grew to be seven or eight years old, exactly like their dead little daughter.

The girl's name is Gaya, and her face has no expression at all, except that her eyes are blue.

There is also a strange crystal ball in her hand.

When she saw her makeup in the mirror, Kotone was shocked by herself.The eyes with blue fake pupils are too scary!

What I’m going to shoot today is:
Gaya was raised as a daughter by the Zhutori couple and then played with the children in the village.

Other children hated her blue eyes, and one of the sons of Orion would hit Gaya on the forehead with a pebble.

But Gaya healed his own wound with a wave of his hand, and with a smile, he used a pebble to make a hole in the child's head.

What is needed here is that the sound of the piano reflects the innocence of Gaya.

There will be a shot of a fake pebble hitting her forehead.

The child actor will do a waving motion, but it will be another prop person who actually hits the fake pebble on her forehead.

Before filming started, Qinyin did not check the props.

On the contrary, Kageda Hongichi went to check it once, and then Yasuko Sawaguchi also turned over the fake pebbles intentionally or unintentionally. Finally, Kotone discovered that even Mr. Torii and Miho Nakayama secretly looked at the "pebbles" ".

Their performances all explained one problem to Kotone: the person in charge of this prop was either a member of Assistant Director Ishikawa, or had a strong connection with Ishihara and his daughter.

However, after Kotone thought deeply, she finally set her sights on Ishihara and her daughter.

Ishikawa is not that stupid, so the only ones with this motive are Ishihara and his daughter.

Qionin did not alert the snake, but found the staff who distributed the script.

Sure enough, Qiong found here that her script had been asked to be copied one more time.

This copy of the script lines has been taken away, but there is no registration record.

Haha, do you really think that you are a little girl who doesn’t understand anything?
She could almost guess with her eyes closed, under what circumstances another person would need to memorize the lines that only Qin Yin needed to remember.

Returning to the shooting scene calmly, Kotone glanced at Maiko Ishihara's expression.

Compared with her lifeless appearance the day before, Maiko Ishihara's face was particularly rosy today.

And her lips kept mumbling something.

If she guessed correctly, Ishihara Maiko should be practicing her own lines.

So... no matter how you check it, the pebble will turn out to be real when necessary!
Zhang Yu Qinyin is wearing ancient clothes, looking like an exquisite rag doll, staring at the camera with a serious smile.

It was old man Ichikawa who was controlling the mirror.

"Scene 127, get ready, start filming!"

The prop man named Yuichi Oguchi walked forward with his head lowered, carefully avoiding the camera, picked up a "prop" pebble and pointed it at Kotone's forehead.

An imperceptible grin appeared on Oguchi Yuichi's face.

"Wait a minute!"

Kageta Koichi suddenly stopped Oguchi Yuichi. He stepped forward with a serious face and took the prop pebble from Oguchi Yuichi again.

Eh?
It’s really a prop pebble.

"continue!"

Old man Ichikawa didn't care about this scene. He waved his hand: "Continue shooting!"

Oguchi Yuichi calmly took the prop pebble, turned it over in his hand, the prop pebble fell into his sleeve, and a heavy real pebble appeared in his hand.

He looked at Qinyin's beautiful forehead coldly. Although he was hostile, he couldn't help but feel a pity.

It's a pity for such a beautiful little girl, but she must have bruises or wounds on her face today, otherwise Director Ichikawa will not consider replacing her.

Although he might lose his job because of this, he thought of the conditions Maiko Ishihara's mother agreed to, and Yuichi Oguchi felt that everything was worth it.

The real pebbles flew towards the forehead of Kotone who was motionless with the sound of wind.

The sound that broke through the air made the faces of those around him change.

wrong!

Those are real pebbles!

With a sinister smile on his face, Yuichi Oguchi was already ready to immediately step forward to pick up the real pebbles.

Not far away, Maiko Ishihara and her daughter both smiled excitedly.

(Ahem, if you want to know what happened next, let’s talk about it in the next chapter... If I go, who will throw pebbles at me?!!)
