Life in Tokyo starting as a child star
Chapter 92 The audition begins
The long black and smooth hair falls from the shoulders.
She wears a white cherry blossom kimono.
Her eyes are as clear as the autumn sky.
This should be a somewhat weak outfit.
But with the long sword on the girl's waist, the overall look is set off with a bit of heroism.
In addition, her height is different from that of ordinary female roles.
At the first glance, Kita Sumire has confirmed the other party's identity.
It is Akiyama Shion.
After some greetings and introductions.
Kita Sumire finally understands why Akiyama Shion is here.
She was also brought by her agent Sugimu Shoko to audition for "Kengouden".
But it's not Aoki Kenichi.
It's the audition of the heroine Yukishiro Kaoru.
Because Tanaka Kenzo considered that the male protagonist Aoki Kenichi had already used a male role.
So he decided to find a more mature, aesthetically pleasing, and photogenic female role to play the heroine Yukishiro Kaoru.
As for why an adult actress was not used to play Yukishiro Kaoru, the reason is also very simple.
If the age difference is too big, it may cause the movie to have an irreparable sense of separation when Yukishiro Kaoru and Aoki Ken are on the same screen.
So here we simply go all out and use sub-actors for both the male and female protagonists, sacrificing some sense of camera in exchange for the coordination of the overall picture.
"This is probably the situation on Shion's side. Which supporting role are you here to audition for?"
Standing behind Akiyama Shion, her agent Sugimichi Shoko adjusted her glasses and looked at Kita Sumi and Tamura Koji in confusion.
She has been standing behind and watching for a long time, but still can't guess which role Kita Sumi is here to audition for.
After all, Kita Sumi is too young to look at it this way.
There should be no role that fits his age in "Kengouden".
At the age of eight, he can't be here to audition for Kenichi Aoki, right?
She thought so.
"We are here to audition for Kenichi Aoki."
"Ah?"
Hearing this, Sugimichi Shoko was stunned for a moment and showed an incredible expression.
"Audition for Kenichi Aoki?"
She couldn't help but look up and down at Kita Sumire.
"What's wrong? Sister Shoko, is there any problem with auditioning for Kenichi Aoki?"
A puzzled expression appeared on her dignified and delicate face. Akiyama Shion didn't quite understand why Sugimu Shoko reacted so strongly.
"Of course there is a problem."
It seems that Kita Sumire has a good relationship with Akiyama Shion.
Sugimu Shoko hesitated for a moment, but still expressed her thoughts.
"Kengouden" is still a manga for boys and young people after all.
The characters in it are generally around 17 or 18 years old.
Considering the original work and the original character style.
The director, producer and original author will prefer older, taller and more mature actors.
This can be seen from the fact that most actors in the audition waiting room are between 10 and 13 years old.
"But isn't this "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button"?
Akiyama Shion next to her still didn't quite understand.
The original Kenichi Aoki has become a child.
Then it is reasonable to choose a boy as the protagonist, which is very consistent with the original plot.
"It's not that question, Shion, do you know what the most important point to pay attention to in live-action movie adaptation?"
". Not sure."
"It is to eliminate the 'dissonance' between the live-action movie and the original manga."
Sugimu Shoko raised a finger.
To put it bluntly, moviegoers are not too obsessed with things like age.
As filmmakers, they only need to convey the message that 'the protagonist's age has become smaller because of the power of the dragon vein' to the audience.
Most audiences can understand it.
But choosing an eight-year-old boy is different.
Just think about it, an eight-year-old child is wielding a sword and a gun in front of the camera.
No matter how hard the crew members work, how much makeup they put on, and how much technical adjustments they make in the later stage.
The audience outside the movie will have a particularly strong sense of dissonance.
And this sense of dissonance is truly devastating for live-action movies.
After all, Kita Sumire's height and age are there, which is a physiological disadvantage.
And it is a disadvantage that cannot be compensated.
You can't let Kita Sumire play Kenichi Aoki on stilts and high heels, right?
Director Kenzo Tanaka is not a fool.
How could he choose him?
And even if Kenzo Tanaka really made a mistake.
There are still two people to check, the original author Mayu Watanabe and the producer of Kadokawa Pictures.
Unless Kita Sumire's performance is so good that these three people ignore his age disadvantage.
Otherwise, the role of Kenichi Aoki will never be his turn.
But it's too difficult to do this.
At least Sugimu Shoko can't imagine an eight-year-old child wielding a knife in her mind without being out of place.
However--
"It's a good thing to want to try the audition for the main role. I hope you succeed."
After all, it was in front of others, Sugimu Shoko still gave two blessings-you can't just tell the other party to get out and stop wasting time here, right?
That would be too hurtful.
It's just that this child is still a little pitiful.
Sugimu Shoko looked at Kitasumi's handsome and lovely appearance, and felt sorry for him.
If he came to audition in two years, it should be no problem for him to get the role of Aoki Kenichi.
It's a pity that there are not so many ifs in this world.
But what she didn't expect was.
After listening to such a long list of analysis she said.
The eight-year-old boy in front of him actually didn't look disappointed at all. Instead, he looked at her with his handsome and lovely face half raised.
Isn't this child's mentality too stable?
She felt a little surprised, and then Kitumi Minoru's voice rang out.
"If that's the case, can I ask Sister Shanmu which of the servants here you like the most?"
"Which servant do you like the most?"
Sugi Xiangzi didn't expect that the other party would ask this question.
Even if you know, what can you do?
So that you can give up?
Adjusting her glasses, she finally revealed her favorite candidate.
"Yoshimoto Tsukinosuke from the Chiba Yakuza Center. Although he is already a fourteen-year-old koyaku, his popularity has dropped sharply. But among all the koyaku present, his age and height should be the closest to the image of Kenichi Aoki. .”
Sugi Xiangzi's voice paused and he stretched out his finger.
"Yoshimoto has a lot of experience in acting. He won awards in his early years and was exposed to kendo. These are indeed great advantages."
Shaked his head.
"But if nothing else goes wrong, this should be his last audition as a 'ziyu', because he will be fifteen in two or three months and can no longer continue in the Ziyu industry."
A child's lifespan ends at the age of fifteen, which is a rule in the industry.
When it comes to this.
Sugi Xiangzi still sighed.
What will happen to the son-in-law when he becomes an adult?
Tsukinosuke Yoshimoto's popularity has also declined significantly in recent years.
If nothing else, he will most likely start from scratch as an adult actor.
But how easy is that?
I was able to get the role of Kenichi Aoki on the eve of the end of his career.
It can be regarded as the other party's swan song.
"If that's the case, then I feel sorry for Yoshimoto-senpai."
"A little sorry for Ji Yuan?"
Hearing Kitazumi's voice, Sugi Shoko turned his head strangely.
"Yeah. I feel a little sorry for him."
Kitazumi blinked and spoke in an innocent voice: "Because I will win the role of Kenichi Aoki."
"ah?"
I didn't expect Kitumi Minoru to give such an unexpected answer.
With a surprised expression on his face, Sugi Xiangzi looked at the other party.
Mainly because she couldn't understand it at all——
Why is Kitazumi so confident?
You must know that regardless of age or height, Tsukinosuke Yoshimoto has an advantage that he cannot overcome.
Tsukinosuke Yoshitsune also has much more acting experience than him.
None of the two hard conditions can be met.
But why can he still say something like 'take Aoki Kenichi'?
Isn't this a bit arrogant?
Sugi Xiangzi couldn't help it and was about to speak.
But the notification sound from the other side interrupted her.
"Everyone who is auditioning for the lead role of "Kenhao Den", Kenichi Aoki, please follow the staff to the direction of Studio 3."
"Everyone who is auditioning for the lead role of Kenichi Aoki in "Swordsman Den" please follow the staff to the direction of Studio 3."
"."
The three consecutive broadcasts made Sugi Xiangzi stunned for a moment, and then she realized——
Aoki Kenichi's audition.
It's about to begin.
Please make your first order!
