Tokyo Reborn: Dark Superstar

Chapter 224 The Eye of the Typhoon in Domestic Entertainment

Overall, Takakura Bunta felt quite comfortable on the set of "The Emperor and the Assassin".

He is the biggest star in the crew. Except for troublemakers like Liu Xiaoqin, everyone else flatters him or at least doesn't offend him. His daily tasks are to film and train.

However, "The Emperor and the Assassin" also has its shortcomings.

In the 20s, mainland female artists were still relatively conservative, not as open-minded as Japanese actresses who played around...

When filming Ultraman Tiga, he sang with the captain of the Victory Team, Megumi Iruma, in the locker room, and even played a bondage game as a Kirieloid.
Not to mention "Hot Blood School", the JK short skirts of Japanese high school girls are dazzling. Later, I took the bus that Shizuka Kudo took and experienced the feeling of green and environmentally friendly public transportation.

"Iron Man" has a female traffic police played by Sachiko, who kills people while driving and plays with the car vibrator, which is very exciting.

"Fireworks" met Kurai Yun, who is a professional player. When filming the scene in the old car factory, the two of them started fighting directly in the abandoned parking lot...

Bunta Takakura likes this kind of atmosphere on the set the most. He releases stress during the breaks and after work every day in a different environment. The fatigue from filming is swept away, and he feels comfortable and happy.

…………

Now that he is filming "The Emperor and the Assassin", there is a lot less people around him.

Gong Huang is indeed a top-notch actress, but she was only allowed to experience "Raise the Red Lantern" for a while on the first day of the audition. She acted very reserved and couldn't let go of her airs.

This is understandable.

Gong Li first became famous with "Red Sorghum", which won the Golden Bear Award at the 28th Berlin International Film Festival. Then she won the Best Actress Award at the 49th Venice International Film Festival and the Best Actress Award at the 13th China Film Golden Rooster Awards for "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit".

There are also many excellent works such as "Raise the Red Lantern", "Ju Dou", "The Battle of Qin Terracotta Warriors", etc., which have won numerous international awards.

She can be said to be a heroine with an international vision and has seen and experienced everything.

However, she has always been the exclusive muse of the national teacher, and the two have been in love for eight years.

The national teacher graduated from Chang'an No. 30 Middle School. After graduating from junior high school, he worked in a production team in a rural area in the northwest. Later, he went to work as a worker in the No. 8 Cotton Mill. His techniques were relatively traditional.

There are three main types of fighting skills, and the venues are limited to dormitories, homes, and most of the time, filming takes place in hotels.

…………

The performance indicators of a racing car are determined by the long-term technical path and debugging style of the debugger.

This makes Gong Huang's tactics in 1998 very conservative, just like the characters she played, with a kind of discipline towards girls in the ancestral halls and feudal families of the Republic of China.

This exclusive muse is in the process of transformation from exclusive to shared.

Don't dare to try some new technologies easily.

…………

Forced into a corner, Gao Cang Wentai could only chat with Lao Ai Wang Zhiwen and Ding Haifeng who played Qin Wuyang. He was instilled with the philosophy of middle-aged and elderly men and talked about everything under the sun, politics, economy and so on.

Or take time to teach Abe Hiroshi, who plays Lu Buwei, and Kashiwahara Takashi, who plays Prince Dan of Yan, to learn Chinese.

It’s actually quite fun.

However, Bunta Takakura still prefers the process of unlocking new knowledge with high-end players every day.

When he reaches the age of soaking wolfberries in a thermos cup and his hair is gray, he can become a Buddhist old cadre with both good morals and good art...

..............................

Fortunately, just when Gao Cangwen was getting bored to death and planned to go south to Wancheng.

Zhou Xun is here.

In her previous life, Zhou Xun played a blind girl with few scenes in "The Emperor and the Assassin" directed by Kaizi. However, this brief role was extremely important to the film, and every shot of her was stunning.

In these few minutes of the blind girl's play, the audience is supposed to believe that Jing Ke, an assassin who once killed people for money, was completely changed just because of a brief encounter with the girl, laying the foundation for him to become a righteous man who assassinated the King of Qin.

…………

Among the mainland artists signed by One Piece Entertainment based on Takakura Bunta's foresight, Zhou Xun and Zhang Ziyi are the two pillars of One Piece Entertainment's mainland branch.

In comparison, Zhang Jingchu, Jiang Qingqing and Fan Bingbing are much inferior in terms of acting skills and status.

Last year, the mainland TV series "Red Prescription" was a big IP at the time. The drama won the Five First Project Awards, Feitian Awards, and Golden Eagle Awards. Although Zhou Xun's role as Shen Pei was not the leading female role, the entire drama revolved around her...

As works such as "Suzhou River" and "Red Prescription" were successively adapted into films, Zhou Xun's reputation became more and more famous.

Fortunately, Liu Xiaoli, president of the inland branch of One Piece Entertainment, acted decisively and efficiently. After agreeing to a series of extremely relaxed filming output requirements, she successfully signed Zhou Xun.

Otherwise, if she waited until the second half of this year, she would have played Princess Taiping in the TV series "The Story of the Palace of Eternal Life" directed by Li Shaohong.

The popularity of this TV series made her a truly famous actress, and she also won the Most Popular Actress Award in the same year.

It would be extremely difficult to sign Zhou Xun at this time...

..............................

In mid-May, the Qin Palace in Hengdian was the filming location for the filming of "The Emperor and the Assassin".

Zhou Xun, who was 23 years old at the time, already showed a dazzling aura.

Her baby fat is faintly visible, her facial features are still childish, and the youthful time is wandering in her dress.

What is youth?
Youth means that even if you do something wrong, you can still forgive it without reservation.

This may be the reason why Zhou Xun has the confidence to film twelve film and television dramas, date nine male confidants, and have four official boyfriends in the seven years since she entered the industry.

Before joining the crew of "The Emperor and the Assassin", Zhou Xun broke up with her fourth official boyfriend Jia Hongsheng, and now shares an apartment with a male confidant in the Workers' Stadium community in the capital.

It is worthy of being the eye of the typhoon in domestic entertainment...

…………

When director Ning Hao saw Zhou Xun, he couldn't help but say to Takakura Bunta: "I kind of understand why you want to replace Gong Li with Zhou Xun."

"But the role of the blind girl is not bad either."

"The blind girl is the soul of Jing Ke's transformation in this movie. I originally wanted to find a veteran actor, or go to an orphanage to find a real blind girl to play the role..."

"Because I think among all the actors of this age in the market today, I can't think of even one actress who can handle this role."

Gao Cangwenta glanced at Zhou Xun's airport and said, "It's too peaceful. Gong Li is more suitable for the role of Zhao Nu. The mount of the King of Qin should be a fierce horse full of wildness and strength."

Ning Hao said, "Well, don't set your sights on her. Her boyfriend is Dou Xian'er. I heard that Dou Xian was a resident singer in a bar at the time. Zhou Xun fell in love with his rock music as soon as he heard it, and fell in love with him."

"Many people in school have heard of this love story..."

"When they were dating, neither of them was famous yet and their lives were very hard. But Dou Xian was very attentive to Zhou Xun. She couldn't bear to see her squeeze on the subway to and from get off work, so she borrowed money from everywhere to buy her a used car and promised her that she would buy a house in BJ..."

Gao Cangfunta couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Director Ning, you are too isolated from information in school, and the version is too backward. Read less gossip magazines on the street stalls."

"I suggest you go to an internet cafe and log in to Telegram, check out the domestic entertainment section, and the latest One Piece company gossip group."

"Dou Xian is the second generation, and now the fourth generation Jia Hongsheng has been eliminated..."

Takakura Bunta doesn't want to hear any bullshit about love now.

He just wanted to put out the fire.

The girl in her twenties has the appearance and figure of a teenager or junior high school girl, but she has rich combat experience, the smoky voice of a mature girl, and big watery and innocent eyes.

What kind of top-grade cauldron artifact is this...

No wonder Zhou Xun can become the eye of the storm in the domestic entertainment industry...
