Poverty story after Tokyo actress

Relying on the film and television understanding and thinking ahead of the times, Maaya became one of the film leaders of that era, and relying on the foresight to plan ahead of the bubble economy era, and accumulated a large amount of assets for the Hoshino family.

Let the Hoshino Consortium become one of the most prosperous film and television industry consortiums in Japan.

Maaya talked a lot, and what she said was quite complicated, and she would get off-line to other aspects from time to time.And Jiang Bai smiled, quietly listening to Maaya's ramblings, and at this moment, Jiang Bai felt that he, the senior traveler, was really old.

"Ah... Unknowingly dragged it too far, I'm sorry, the main reason is that over the years, people who can open their hearts to say these words have already left one step before me..."

Maaya, who came back from the off-line topic again, was taken aback for a moment, then smiled apologetically, and said to Jiang Bai with emotion.

"Um……"

"Ah, I'm talking about it all by myself. Miyano, please tell me about yourself, so as not to be unfair. What was your previous life like?"

"My previous life...it wasn't very exciting, it was just a tepid professional actor."

"Oh? A tepid professional actor? That's a good relationship. It just so happens that I still remember some movies that I complained about in my previous life. You can tell me about the movies you participated in, maybe I still remember them."

"Well, the name of my previous life, called Jiang Bai, was a man..."

"Well... it didn't surprise me. Transformation is also a normal operation. But Jiang Bai... this name is also a coincidence. You actually have the same name in your previous life, and this name... is a little bit different. A little image."

"Hahaha, it's good that Ms. Maaya doesn't care." Jiang Bai smiled slightly, and continued: "The movie I made... I think my most famous one should be the "Homecoming"."

"Homecoming" won Jiang Bai the Best Actor in Cannes. It is a road movie about the protagonist played by Jiang Bai, a migrant worker who returns from the city to a remote village after learning that his mother died people and things.

The film looks at the era of accelerating development with the pure and simple eyes of a migrant worker. The main line of this film is not exciting, it can even be said to be boring, it is just a journey back home.

And it is this journey that shows the life of the little people in that great era. All kinds of people walked through this journey one by one, outlining the tip of the iceberg of that great era.

It was a movie that made Jiang Bai himself particularly unforgettable. When he learned about such a role, he immediately thought of his deceased mother, so he worked hard to get this role, and then put himself in the role of his mother. The melancholy and anguish in the heart after death are all vented in this role.

During the filming process, he felt more than once that he was the character himself.This state of being one with the horns won him the Palme d'Or.

At the moment when Jiang Bai talked about the works she had shot, Hoshino Maaya thought for a while, she didn't seem to think of anything, so she wanted to take a sip of Coke, but then, she seemed to have a flash of inspiration, as if she suddenly remembered something very important matter.

"Wait!" She asked quickly: "You said, your previous life was called Jiang Bai, and the most famous movie you made was called "Homecoming"?"

"...There should be no other people named Jiang Bai, let's also take pictures of returning home."

After Jiang Bai's default words were finished, Maaya's complexion gradually became surprised, and she asked: "Could you be the Chinese actor who won the Cannes Palme d'Or...Jiang Bai? "

"Well." Jiang Bai smiled slightly and nodded.

Although he was a little surprised at first, he was a big man after all. Soon, Maaya calmed down and said with emotion: "That's really a wonderful fate. In fact, Jiang Bai... well, now he can be called Miss?"

"It's okay, I don't mind, I'm used to being a girl now."

"Oh, as expected of an outstanding actor." Maaya laughed and teased, and continued: "How should I put it, in my previous life, I wanted to be the one who loved you in the movie Homecoming, and every time I watched you show it in the movie I can't help but sigh with emotion for that kind of sad but not hurtful temperament..."

"Whenever I watch your performance in the movie, I feel that you are full of charm when you are not handsome. At that time, I was also a fan of yours."

"I remember that I made a film review specifically about you, and I seemed to have made a violent comment, saying that you are not one of the best Chinese actors of our time. Looking back now..."

"Do you think it's wrong?"

Jiang Bai asked back, but Maaya's face was straightened, and she replied righteously: "No, I think I was right at the time."

"Hahaha, I'll just take it as you are praising me. But I still don't think I can bear this title." Jiang Bai smiled modestly and waved his hands.

"Well~ there is no need to be modest, Miss Jiang Bai, I remember I went to China ten years ago for cultural exchanges, and I was looking forward to meeting you in the parallel world. After all, I admired you very much in my previous life, but at that time Did not see.

"I haven't heard anyone mention you. I thought it was because of my time travel that caused the butterfly effect, which made you disappear in this world. I regretted it for a long time. Alas, the butterfly effect caused by my messing around is too much." If there are too many, I feel a little messed up myself."

Saying that, Maaya shook her head helplessly, but this aroused Jiang Bai's curiosity. She asked, "The Butterfly Effect... Do you mean the comic dramas that are booming in the Dongying film and television industry?"

"Well, and not only these, there are many more. Manga dramas are only more obvious."

Saying that, Maaya fell into memories, and explained to Jiang Bai how he made the manga flourish.

"I remember it was in the 80s. I thought of the economic bubble era and the prosperity of Dongying Animation, so I wanted to get involved in the animation industry. But you also know that after filming a lot, I wanted to perform, so there was no I chose to engage in animation directly, but made an animated live-action drama.”

"But I didn't expect that the animated live-action drama I accidentally planted would become popular, and the benefit would be higher than that of animation at that time. So since then, following my choice, a large number of comic-adapted dramas have emerged."

"My choice inexplicably led to the animation industry of Dongying, but when I first noticed this trend, I didn't take it seriously, and even contributed to the flames, because I am essentially engaged in film and television, so animation film and television is very important to me. The benefits are great, and I will disrupt the entire Dongying film and television industry by making mistakes like this."

Maaya told Jiang Baixu about the history of changes in Dongying’s film and television industry. After all, capital is profit-seeking. When it is found that the real-life manga is aimed at more groups, and it will benefit more than the animation of manga only for young people, it will naturally Without hesitation, choose real people.

However, this is cheaper for an actor like Jiang Bai, because such an environment is more friendly to the actor's career. If it weren't for the rise of manga dramas, it might be much more difficult for Jiang Bai to enter the industry than it is now.

Therefore, to a certain extent, Maaya is considered Jiang Bai's benefactor, and this can be regarded as a coincidence of fate.

Chapter 180 Fourth, a woman who loves to play will not grow old

Jiang Bai talked with Maaya for a long time, and in most cases it was Maaya who said it again, and Jiang Bai listened silently as a listener.How to put it, Jiang Bai is actually a little envious of Maaya's experience.

Being able to have a close relationship with Kurosawa, Ridley Scott, Hou Xiaoxian, Francisco Coppola, etc., the top famous directors who play an important role in the film industry, how can Jiang Bai not be envious?

Even in his previous life, Jiang Bai would only occasionally talk to these people at the film festival.

It was already an hour after Maaya finished sharing all kinds of interesting things about her time travel. The decades of past events are not so easy to finish, and Maaya just picked some impressive things for chatting.

When she came back to her senses, the time was almost noon, Maaya listened to the sound of cooking from the kitchen, and smiled with some emotion: "Well, I have been in this world for 60 years without knowing it, those high school students who used to From a long-term perspective, they are all old-fashioned things now."

"Miss Jiang Bai, what do you want to do in the future? Will you continue to be an actor like in your previous life?"

For this question, Jiang Bai did not hesitate, and replied: "Ah, that is natural, after all, I only know these things."

"Hahaha, don't be humble. I have heard from my granddaughter that you are not only good at acting, you are also very good at making movies. This is the so-called acting and directing. Like me, I started as a few A young actor, he also started to get in touch with directors."

"Well, I have seen the works you took, and they are all very beautiful."

"Oh, don't flatter me. I know my level very well. The works of my director can only be seen in that era. I know very well that I relied on reading a lot of films at that time. Tinker tinker.

"The final product can also be regarded as an avant-garde film with avant-garde ideas. Looking at those things now, one may not know what they will look like." Teasing herself, Maaya shook her head with a wry smile.

However, Jiang Bai retorted: "That's not necessarily the case. After all, aren't you still making movies? Maybe at the beginning, you just simply borrowed from some "descendants", but more and more shots, Always come to own understanding."

"Now you, after decades of precipitation, can also bear the title of film master."

Jiang Bai's words are always so gentle and elegant, which makes people feel comfortable. Listening to her words, Maaya rubbed her temples, and said to Jiang Bai with some regrets: "If I could have your attitude back then, I would I won't break up with Mr. Kurosawa..."

"..."

Jiang Bai heard what Maaya said before. Simply put, it is the discord between the two people's ideas, which led to the final break of the relationship. This kind of thing is very common in film festivals. It is nothing to be a pity. Art is destined for every filmmaker to have his own personality.

Maybe it was something unhappy, Maaya wanted to pull the topic away, so she took a sip of Coca-Cola, began to show a gossip look, and asked Jiang Bai: "Hey, I heard from my granddaughter, you can talk to me again. She fell in love, um... Calculated based on your age in your previous life, you should be 50 or [-] years old now, right?"

"Uh... yes."

Jiang Bai nodded in embarrassment. In fact, she was quite afraid of Maaya's point of view. After all, this is actually an old man in his 50s and 20s who fell in love with a young girl in her [-]s.

However, Maaya seemed to see Jiang Bai's thoughts, smiled and waved her hands and said: "You don't have to worry about it, I won't make things difficult for you because of age, in fact, when I got married, my mental age was 50 years old, no The same old cow abducted a handsome young man in his twenties while eating young grass?"

Saying that, Maaya smiled quite boldly, and somewhat relieved Jiang Bai's embarrassment. This senior traveler... has a really free and easy temper.

However, this also aroused Jiang Bai's curiosity. She asked Maaya curiously: "Speaking of which, I was very curious just now, why haven't I seen your husband?"

Shouldn't...

Jiang Bai didn't say this guess, so as not to worry Maaya, but when it came to this, Maaya waved her hand and responded with a pity: "Oh, what else can I do, I'm divorced."

"Eh?"

divorce?

Hiss... Ah, although it is a bit unexpected, it is indeed reasonable... There are very few private lives in the entertainment industry that can be consistent.

"The main reason is that my husband and I have different philosophies, and it's a bit... You know, it's wrong to be in the wrong family. When I fell in love with him at the time, I just thought he was handsome, and I didn't think much about the future."

"And his work has little to do with me. I'm in the entertainment industry, and he's a professional. As you can guess, he can't meet once in half a month. No matter how passionate the relationship is at the beginning, it will cool down later. "

"So when we were in our 30s, the two of us got together and parted ways, and divorced normally."

"yes……"

"Hmm, but I've been in touch all the time. I didn't get less help from him when I started a company. He's a good man. It's a pity that I'm not a good woman."

Saying that, Maaya shrugged her shoulders, and said with nostalgia: "Well, although the marriage failed in the end, but when I think back to the passion and romance when I was young, I don't feel regretful."

"After that, Miss Maaya, have you ever thought about having a new relationship?"

"New relationship? Forget it. When my husband divorced, I was already in my 30s and almost 60s. Converting my mental age, I was in my 60s at that time, and I had no motivation to fall in love. "

"It just so happened that he didn't remarry either, so I thought, if he's not remarried, I'll just remarry, isn't that unreasonable? So I thought at the time, he won't remarry, and I won't remarry either. Find a small fresh meat of about [-] minutes."

"However...he really insists that he hasn't remarried until now. Tsk, I feel that my happiness in the rest of my life seems to be delayed."

Maaya curled her lips as she spoke, and put on a very unhappy expression, but Jiang Bai didn't think Maaya was really upset at all, so it would be better to say... You seem to be quite happy that your partner didn't remarry after divorce ah.

"Oh, I'm talking about other things again, tsk, it should be yours, hey, Jiang Bai, I just ask a question, have you thought about how to live after you are really with my granddaughter?"

Realizing that she had brought the topic back to herself, Maaya even brought the topic back, bringing the question back to Jiang Bai and Makoto.

But for this question, Jiang Bai just chuckled and said slowly: "I actually don't know. If I really want to talk about life, the two of us are already living together. In my opinion, whether to get married or not to get married is a matter for both of us. It doesn’t really matter that much about a person’s life, because life itself isn’t much fun.”

"I just... get up every morning to cook for her, then go to work, come back at night to prepare dinner, and when it gets dark, I will watch a movie with her, or teach her how to act, or play with her Play something fun..."

"I'm lucky, I can be in the same crew, and I can chat with her more. Well, it's not very interesting, and I often can't think of anything romantic to make her happy..."

Jiang Bai scratched his cheeks and stammered a little, such an answer is indeed quite unassuming, as Jiang Bai said, life itself is not an interesting thing, no matter how eager love is diluted by long-term life, in the end It's just a little condiment for a boring life.

If you really want to say that Jiang Bai has made any efforts in love, he should just find a way to make Zhenqin happy.

If other father-in-law and mother-in-law listened to this kind of answer, they might be very dissatisfied, but Maaya listened with great interest.

"It is enough to have these." Maaya responded to Jiang Bai: "It is enough to have this kind of mentality. If I could have this kind of mentality back then, my husband and I would not divorce him... Oh, Inexplicably, I was involved again. Tsk, I am still old."

"It's fine if you don't mind. After all, physically speaking, Makoto and I are gay..."

"Tsk, what age is it, and you still care about this thing, isn't it just that you can't have children? Even if young people get married nowadays, they don't want to have children. It's nothing if you two live together and can't have children. It's just a pity in this world There may be an extra couple of bachelors~”

Even though Maaya is in her seventies and eighties mentally, she is really enlightened in concept, and because of her personality, she speaks humorously.

"If you really like my precious granddaughter, you can just pursue her. Ah, I forgot, it was she who pursued you... Tsk, why are cabbages smashing pigs these days... But..."

Mumbling, Maaya glanced at Jiang Bai's figure, and her eyes gradually became subtle.

"I don't know who is the cabbage." Saying this, Maaya couldn't help grinning, "Tsk tsk tsk, even I envy this figure."

Maaya's teasing made Jiang Bai feel awkward. This figure was not something he could decide before time travel, but it was indeed because of this skin that he was able to enter the film and television industry so smoothly.

"Speaking of which, Ms. Jiang Bai, what is the change in your mentality during the process of changing from a gentleman to a lady? I have always been curious. If there is a transformation from a male to a female, what is the attitude of the deity. Your attitude is What's it like?"

"manner……"

It's the first time someone asked me this kind of thing. Zhenqin has no interest in it, so it's the first time Jiang Bai is asked what it feels like to transform...

However, let Jiang Bai say what it feels like...

"I...actually don't feel anything...probably because I was a little unaccustomed to it physically at first, and then I felt normal after I got used to it...in terms of mentality...I myself don't care about these things, so I'm not too unaccustomed to it. "

"Eh? It doesn't matter? Is this kind of thinking?"

"Ah."

"Then have you ever paid attention to the issue of whether your sexual orientation has changed?"

"This... Actually, I really didn't pay attention to it. I was single in my previous life... I haven't paid much attention to sexual orientation."

"Hmm... I'm a little disappointed. I'm actually curious, after a man becomes a woman, will there be people who are really used to this kind of thing."

"..."

Miss Maaya, you are already in your seventies and eighties, so don't be curious about such things...

Before meeting Maaya, Jiang Bai thought that this senior traveler would be a wiser elder or senior after time has passed. Looking at it now...the elder is indeed an elder, but the word wisdom has yet to be Change.

At least, the mental age of these 80s is about the same as that of a 20s. Even if he thinks he is young at heart, he can't compare with this old urchin.

Looking at Maaya's face that can't see the traces of time at all, Jiang Bai couldn't help feeling, this may be the so-called, a girl who loves to play will not grow old.

Chapter 180 Five The Hoshino Family's Misfortune

"Really, what are grandma and Jiang Bai talking about? It's almost noon..."

Makoto sat on the sofa eating potato chips and watching movies on the large-screen LCD TV, and occasionally turned to look at Maaya who was talking and laughing with Jiang Bai in the backyard.

Although I don't know what the two of them are talking about, but seeing the two of them chatting happily, it seems that it should be no problem to ask grandma for help.

However, Zhenqin is still not sure whether grandma agrees with him and Jiang Bai to engage in Lily. After all, grandma's sexual orientation is normal, even if she is divorced, she has a very good relationship with grandpa.

In addition, when the grade is getting older, I will always be a little bit against this kind of new things... Although grandma does not reject new things like ordinary old people, she still feels quite uneasy.
