It is difficult to replicate the fiery grandeur of being able to create "Akira", "Ghost in the Shell", and "Millennium Actress" for a long time.Most of the TV animations are popular first, and then the movie version is made while the iron is hot, and if it is a separate project, you have to be mentally prepared to rush to the street.

Fortunately, a certain heir to a construction company stepped forward to support it from a market and economic point of view.But after all, there is only one Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki. Not any team or director can surpass the limits of art and box office one after another.

Moreover, TV animation with a solid foundation is no longer good, and it is not uncommon news that the production companies have no oil in their bowls.

And the brother who is the best at fighting and also owns TV animation, who is behind the support of his virtuous wife, is forced to languish, let alone other brothers who are suffering from the same disease and love each other?

Since 2000, the income of the film industry has not changed or increased. Under such circumstances, it is even more difficult to produce good works, because starting work has become a hassle.

Movies are not born to make money, but successful movies are indeed inseparable from making money.

This kind of fatigue also reflects the social economy.

It may be because of this that there are more and more manga movies. After all, relying on big IPs, it is somewhat confident to make cool PPTs to lure investors.

As a result, another hard-hit area appeared, and the audience felt terrified once they heard about the manga change announcement.

This is also impossible.

It’s like the rubber man’s bullet punching is fine in comics, but if it’s a real person, the scene will be somewhat curious... Or in the card king who uses his hairstyle to spy on the card player, if in reality If someone really wears a Duel King-level hairstyle, it's somewhat aesthetically unbalanced.

What's more, it's not that manga is difficult to shoot, but the movie itself is difficult to shoot.

With such a big environment, it is only natural that old-fashioned styles such as Taizi Xionglang, Zatoichi, and Miankushiro are swept into the corner.

Because of this, the performance of the red-haired swordsman male movie version that is not only hacking and fighting, but also comic adaptation makes people feel rare. Although it may not be a sword movie in the strict sense, it is enough to make people shine.

The original author should be happy. After all, the serialization provided a solid support for the transition period of the publication. The quality of the animation is also quite exquisite. It's for...if you didn't commit the crime of collecting.

Yin Ze sighed as he looked at the "Ronin Kenshin" movie project in his hand.

He still didn't want to understand how the agent got involved with this. Could it be that this is the connection of the former Dentsu Man, the same period as the tornado, and the leader of the queen's wine blocking tool?

Presumably, Brother Bojing at his peak must have many numbers of popular female idols in his cell phone address book, and at worst, there are also business numbers, and such a strong man with a strong kidney and an iron stomach also voluntarily resigned in the cruel office war , Since I fell into the voice actor industry and worked hard in the voice actor industry, the Rolex that supports the scene is still a high imitation. I dare not think about how maliciously those boys and buddies have been squeezed out.

Hey, just this once, Ippei Kashiwai, I love you!

So, amidst the emotions, the man put away the information under the agent's suspicious and self-doubting eyes, and declared, "I already know it, and I will follow the rules."

Then, a few days later, the manager found that the man hadn't come to eat and drink, so he dialed the phone to check the status. After four rings, the communication was established.

"I'm in Kyoto." Yin Ze said.

"What are you doing in Kyoto?" Kashiwa Ippei felt a chill run down his spine.

"I'm in Kyoto with the crew." Yin Ze scratched his head.

"Fart, I just gave you the information five days ago, and you joined the group today, how could it be so fast!" Kashiwa Ippei firmly refused to believe it, "...Even if this character is almost the same as a dragon in the whole movie, I have to think about whether to add coriander to the ramen."

"No, according to your request, I tidied up and went to meet with someone from the producer, and then they asked me a few routine questions, asked me to perform, and then let me go to Kyoto " Yin Ze said easily.

"..." Kashiwa Ippei was silent for a few seconds, he didn't get entangled in the order, but asked, "Then what did you perform?"

"The dying person's nostalgia and despair for the world." Yin Ze sighed deeply, "I don't want to be too arrogant, but I am very sure about this one."

"Really?" Kashiwa Ippei frowned, "I don't doubt the interpretation of the voice, but I don't believe in the interpretation of the body and expression?"

"Although I don't have the real feeling of death, but I understand." Yin Ze said inexplicably first, but then changed his words, "So who asked me about your recent situation, there was a trace of nostalgia and longing in the words? You still have How many friends are producers? May I ask what your cultivation level was back then?"

"Oh, it's the turning point, why bring it up." Kashiwa Ippei smiled heroically, "But it's good to show off your muscles once in a while, and I'll teach you madman that there are still heroes in this office! Then now You should know that becoming a Kamen Rider and a Giant of Light is not impossible, right?"

"Mr. is really a great talent. If you don't come out, how can you save the special photo?" Yin Ze said in a very reverent tone.

"Haha, as long as you act according to the plan, there is no reason why you can't become a man!" Kashiwa Ippei is full of motivation like every boss who draws big cakes for employees, "So we have to work harder, prove it to everyone, prove me There is absolutely nothing wrong with your vision."

"I will do my best!" Yin Ze said like every affectionate employee facing the big cake.As we all know, the strength of effort is very flexible.

"Okay, okay, you go, the chicks should always fly." Kashiwa Ippei said, "After the successful conclusion, you can think about whether to be the Giant of Light or the Kamen Rider."

"Why do you have to choose, why can't you have both?" Yin Ze asked back with a frown.

"...Excuse me, have you ever seen a double human body that is both a Giant of Light and a Kamen Rider?" Kashiwa Ippei was speechless.

"Hahaha, who are you kidding, Qian Shuren and Yingshan Shun are not the same human body?" Yin Ze smiled arrogantly, "I think it may be appropriate!"

"Hmph, then why don't you think about it, why Nexus becomes a villain turned into a zerg next door?" Kashiwa Ippei snorted softly, "And the second brother Seven, who is the end of the knight, is vivid in my memory."

"Hmph, then why don't you think about it anymore." Yin Ze also snorted, "I just want to transform, I don't care if it's the protagonist or the villain."

"?"

Kashiwa Ippei was speechless.

Good boy!The heart of a dark knight hero is so strong!

Yin Ze also sneered inwardly.In order to obtain the pure power that he can brag about in front of children for a lifetime, and for the sake of the youth until his death, he is even willing to regain his old friend who was abandoned—the El Reido who symbolizes withering and disillusionment.

"Speaking of which, it's really all right. Don't report the good news but not the bad news. It's really over, you're really talking to the team." Kashiwa Ippei, like an old mother who was thinking about it, went back to the beginning.After all, after the dark AQUAREENIX with malicious intentions, the evil Kyoto Animation Studio with a peeping heart is also worthy of vigilance.

"Oh, don't worry, I didn't lie to you. I arrived early and ate the duck leg box lunch of the crew." Yin Ze said impatiently.

"Oh." Kashiwa Ippei nodded.That sounds perfectly fine.

"Even if you don't believe me, you still have to trust your hard-earned connections." Yin Ze is now different from the past, asking for others, and flattering like a chicken thief, "That producer friend, when it comes to you, I admire you in words." , and said..."

"It's alright, alright, don't make such low-level flattery, I don't know about my own affairs? After you finish eating the duck leg rice, work hard." Kashiwa Ippei said quickly.

"Okay, see you later." Yin Ze didn't procrastinate, as if he was busy.

The call ends.

Kashiwa Ippei rubbed his phone, remained silent, and quickly came back to his senses after a few seconds. He began to think about whether to thank the producer friend someone mentioned earlier, but in the end he put the phone back on the desk of the work station, temporarily Choose to get up and make a refreshing cup of coffee.

...

Yin Ze didn't put down his phone, he just switched the screen back to the Lianliankan interface, and used his strong eyesight and keen sense of graphics to quickly compete for the rankings. The peerless master is not weaker than others. But the arrogance of pursuing the first-line goalkeeper has never been extinguished.

"Brother, was that your manager just now?" The group performer who was squatting beside him playing cards turned his head and asked curiously.

"Yes."

"Look, this is called professionalism." The old man praised.

The temporarily summoned crew members and unknown newcomers are enjoying the rest time in a group.

"Brother, are you really an amateur? You don't seem to be any different from the leading actors in film and television dramas. You have a very refined figure and demeanor. Are you from an academic school?" The old brother continued to ask curiously.

"I'm currently studying at the University of Tokyo." Yin Ze said shyly, "I've only done some sound work at most, and I'm actually Noroko."

"Oh, I'm still a top student." The old man was surprised.

"It's easy to talk about." Yin Ze waved his hands modestly.

"Oh, you are not at the same level as us. You are still so young and so handsome. This is the existence that will definitely stand out." The old man smiled, "It doesn't look like we are wasting time."

"How can you say that?" Yin Ze became serious. "They all have two eyes and one mouth. No one is more noble than anyone else. Once you take the initiative to admit defeat, you will lose the courage to fight."

"Oh." The old man sighed.

"There is no difference between us. We all live in this world down-to-earth, running around for a morsel of bread." Yin Ze added, "When human beings have challenged all the peaks, they will eventually choose to face their own darkness. Only by defeating it can one become invincible.”

"Alas..." The old man sighed again.

"So this can't be the chicken leg that you want to lose to me in the card game just now." Yin Ze said emphatically, "I'll leave the extra big chicken leg for dinner to you."

"Alas!" The elder brother frowned and sighed fiercely again.

"Uh, it's about the same time. I think I should go to make up and change clothes. Big brothers, we will play later."

Yin Ze looked at the time, stood up and clasped his hands together, and then began to take stock.

"Just now, everyone lost me a chicken leg, 2 bottles of water, 2 cakes, 4 packs of potato chips and 3 boxes of precious peripherals from the popular girl group in shogi, spider solitaire, Texas Hold'em, drawing ghost cards, and flower rope. I believe that everyone is a senior and a man, and will not deny it."

The man turned around and left gracefully.

"Ugh!!!"

A bunch of old brothers who were like remnants of defeated soldiers were left, speechless and sighing vigorously.

"I have been on the set of movies and TV dramas for many years, and I have never seen a young man who wins so hard by playing a small game during the lunch break!" The brother who lost the chicken leg, the worst brother sighed, "There is no pattern at all!"

Chapter 130 [-]

Since the 70s, overseas movies have been very popular in Japan. In the 80s, they were even more popular. The alien who flew under the moon on a bicycle even earned a box office of 135 billion yen here. Looks great after many years.

Because it was so delicious, many American Hollywood film companies began to enter Japan, and everyone hoped to make some money in the second largest film market in the world at that time.

Of course, Warner, which is quite large, also came to open up wasteland, established a legal person company, and began to distribute its own films in the Western Hemisphere to the Eastern Hemisphere market. Perhaps it was during the transfer process that cultural differences were discovered, or it was a judgment after investigation. In short, Also began to test the waters of some domestic film production and distribution in Japan.

At that time, it was already involved in the field of animation, and formed a film company with Nippon Television and Toshiba, and even started a manga adaptation.

Of course, business results can be a real headache.

In the end, after the live-action version of "Sweetheart" directed by a certain ruffian failed miserably at the box office, the film production company also scratched its head and declared bankruptcy.

However, Warner also did a big thing. It cooperated with the business giants in the Kansai area to create the first multiplex cinema in Japan and the first theater chain in Japan. Although both of them left due to financial problems, they were replaced by Aeon Cinemas. But these attempts turned into solid experience.

Later, Hogwarts started school in Japan and earned a lot of money. At the same time, the craze for overseas movies finally subsided, and they were no longer popular. The elementary school student theater version of Reaper was punched several times, no, it was kicked by football several times, suppressed to death.

With the opening of the University of Magic, Warner Japan, whose pockets are gradually getting richer, is about to move again, wanting to enter the film industry again.

——Experience in land reclamation must be used this time!

Well, the second week's game, of course it's not the same, the first week's stuff is still there.

With the help of the database of TV stations and theaters, as well as the entertainment and publishing industry, we finally grasped the pain points of our customers.

The most popular work at that time was the small black book. Young people were very interested in this story of "as long as you write your name on the small book, you will die suddenly". The average volume sales exceeded 200 million copies, which was really hot.And unlike other Wang Daomans with coquettish and bizarre settings, it is not very difficult to change it into a movie, and there are no complicated special effects, so I called Japanese TV stations to show it together.

After the movie came out, it really attracted a lot of attention, and even had a certain degree of discussion overseas.

Many major Hollywood studios will produce local films, which can financially make up for their own films that have been frustrated at the local box office, while also deepening their operations.After another few years of successful investment and publicity, Japan Warner finally decided to start doing it themselves.

Now the general environment has changed again, and now the share of local films is quite gratifying, but the stable series, such as theatrical versions of TV dramas and animated films, are all controlled by local companies.

I want to go up and take a bite, but I really can't join the team.

At this time, Warner Japan had been wandering the local market for many years. Looking back at the small black book that had been a big success before, it reminded of the past events involving comics and the audience of anime here, and suddenly felt something.

...

Otomo Keishi is a native of Iwate Prefecture. He joined NHK, which is NHK, at the age of 24. After co-directing a period drama 11 years later, he left his old club and founded his own firm. In the same year, he signed a contract with Warner There are three film contracts.

"Ronin Kenshin" is the first one.

The 35-year-old Otomo is at the pinnacle of his body and creative desire. He was able to receive orders from large companies as soon as he became independent. His talent is also evident. He is skilled in controlling the screen and has personal opinions.

But in the face of the smug Warner Japan and the original manga of the national level, there are many discussions on the Internet, and Otomo Keishi has always been very cautious.

In fact, it is strange to say that the objects of manga are often super popular works, but the final results are mostly unsatisfactory, and even manga are subtly labeled as "inferior products" and "hotness". .

The movie itself is not easy to make, let alone this kind of original work.

It is easy to drop a refrigerator into a well, but it is difficult to add dragons and phoenixes to Jinxiu.

In fact, after Warner Japan announced the live-action news, the fans did not cheer immediately, but maintained a calm attitude.

As a director, Otomo Keishi is also very clear that the content of the original story is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is almost impossible to achieve a complete restoration. First of all, the plot alone needs to be reorganized and arranged. The movie is not a series. Within two hours, you must It is necessary to clarify everything that should be there, throw away what can be discarded, and not be too messy to make fans feel offended, so that the fans of the original work and the movie audience will not be pleased with each other.

The second is the costume and style. If Kenshin really has frantic red hair on his head, it would be too dramatic. Similarly, other characters with strange shapes and elements should also be balanced.

In fact, the promotion of "Ronin Kenshin" avoided the controversial "character design" at the beginning, and promoted the biggest selling point of the movie-killing battles, that is, action scenes.

Compared with traditional period dramas, "Killing", which is more entertaining, is more appealing to young Japanese audiences.

What matters is how the various moves and swordsmanship that make readers imagine in the comics are turned into reality.For this reason, Otomo Kaishi kept flipping through previous sword and halberd films all night long, and also replayed a lot of Xiangjiang movies from the 70s.

It was also a coincidence that he noticed that the name of a Japanese appeared in the staff list at the end of the film many times, so he set off decisively to invite him.

He firmly believes that breathing air from other places can bring wind from different regions and infuse different boiling blood.

Casting, pre-preparation, character training, shooting...

Otomo Keishi breathed a sigh of relief when these things were carried out in an orderly manner.

Only now do I realize that at some point, the main creators seem to have competed with me. It’s obviously just a comic change, but they have put in a lot of effort. It seems that what they are doing has some kind of innovative significance and serves as a reference for the industry. A masterpiece of value.Especially the male lead, who said at a young age, "If you don't make a good film, you will just retire."

Alas, speaking with such certainty, leaving no room for escape, and not adding a "do your best" detour, it really is the willful temper of young people.

Now that most of the hard-working battle scenes are done, I am doing the last part of the plot shooting, and I can finally take a little breather.

—Cross Scar.

Like the Oath of No Killing and the Backblade Knife, they are the iconic design elements of the protagonist, and they are also the embodiment of the complexity of this character, so it must be made clear.

As a murder sword, Kenshin attacked and killed a young samurai. The next day, he silently witnessed the scene of his fiancée crying over the cold corpse outside the crowd. For the first time, he doubted the reason for holding the sword. Accidentally killed Yukidaiba who came to avenge his fiancé, and he became more and more in love with him, whom he loved deeply.And eventually disappeared with the old era, embarking on the road of becoming a living sword.
