Chapters 1238 and 1247: Come on, let's hurt each other!
With the early summer fast approaching, the production of "Long Vacation" has reached its final two episodes.
During its two-month run, this urban romance drama once again sparked a ratings frenzy, with viewership exceeding 30%, becoming a truly popular drama and perfectly continuing the "Monday 9 PM Romance Drama" phenomenon popularized by Shuyou.
Many urban men and women stay up late in front of the TV, waiting to watch the latest episode of "Long Vacation" and see how the relationship between Sena and Minami develops.
Even the sales of the theme song "LALALA LOVE SONG" sung by Akina Jolie soared, surpassing 30 copies and rapidly growing towards 40.
The two main actors, Masaharu Fukuyama and Chikako Aoyama, have become household names as young actors!
Masaharu Fukuyama has risen from a complete newcomer to a popular young actor, while Chikako Aoyama already had some fame and is now on the path to becoming a top-tier actress of the new generation.
Meanwhile, the filming of the TV series has reached its final stage.
Today, the crew of "Long Vacation" is filming in the concert hall of the Tokyo College of Music, which is filled with university students.
Because this scene is about a piano competition, they were all there as extras! And for free!
This is both a good way for the production team to save costs and a benefit for the fans!
"That's Masaharu Fukuyama!" "He's really handsome in person!" "He seems to be around our age, we could go all in!" "Where's Chikako Aoyama?"
The discussion below the stage continued, but after Nishimoto Tomoyuki gave the order, the extras finally quieted down.
Thus, Masaharu Fukuyama was finally able to enter the stage and begin playing the piano.
Fortunately, Masaharu Fukuyama, who aspires to become a top musician, is also quite skilled at playing the piano; otherwise, he might have embarrassed himself in front of so many people.
After the scene depicting the piano competition at the concert hall concluded, director Tomoyuki Nishimoto addressed the crew in the dressing room:
"Everyone, we have another shoot tonight, we need to hurry back to the filming location!"
"Everyone, please take a break and have dinner!"
Hi~ XN
The crew members naturally had no objections; after all, this was their profession.
While the crew was packing up the props, Nishimoto Banyuki approached Fukuyama Masaharu and Aoyama Chikako and spoke to them beforehand:
"There are kissing scenes during filming at night. Well, you're all actors, so you have to control your own emotions."
Nishimoto Tomoyuki looked at the handsome man and beautiful woman.
In short, avoid eating strongly flavored foods for dinner.
"."
Masaharu Fukuyama and Chikako Aoyama exchanged a glance, and surprisingly, they felt a little awkward.
After Nishimoto Tomoyuki left, perhaps to ease the awkwardness, Fukuyama Masaharu jokingly said:
"I've decided, I'm having natto rice bowl tonight! I hope Chikako-chan doesn't dislike the taste of natto?!"
"That's not good. As a professional actor, shouldn't you be able to control your expressions?!"
“.!!!”
Natto has a unique flavor that is quite strong compared to other Japanese dishes!
Aoyama Chikako's eyes flashed a "little brother, you're playing with fire" look, and then she retorted defiantly:
"Then I'm having Hell Ramen tonight!!! Fukuyama, little brother, you can't handle spicy food, can you?!"
"."
The two young people stubbornly insisted on teaching each other a lesson during their kissing scene that night!
"Come on, let's hurt each other!!!"
So at dinner, the director and assistant directors saw one person eating a large bowl of natto rice with salty and fishy mentaiko (spicy cod roe), while the other person was sweating profusely as they ate bright red hell ramen.
"Didn't I just tell them I wanted something light?!"
Nishimoto Banyuki had some doubts about his previous memories, and after making some inquiries, he learned that the two young people had actually started fighting each other!
This was something that director Tomoyuki Nishimoto had never expected. He had only meant well by offering a friendly reminder, but it unexpectedly provoked the two young people to rebel.
However, it was too late to say anything then, Nishimoto Tomoyuki shook his head inwardly.
Anyway, if we don't get a good shot tonight, we'll just give them a good mouthwash!
The filming location in Daejeon-gu, the most important filming location for "Long Vacation," is an apartment building.
A huge billboard stands on the rooftop, depicting a man and a woman sitting on the beach looking out to sea, with the words "DON'T WORRY, BE HAPPY" prominently displayed below.
This distinctive billboard has become a symbol of "Long Vacation," and the male and female protagonists in the show often look at it for encouragement and comfort.
Tourism companies have already approached TreeFriends to inquire whether they can sell the advertising slogan and design to them, and have offered a large advertising fee.
Of course, the tree friend refused; he wanted to keep the advertising slogan for himself!
Night had fallen, but the top floor of the apartment building was still brightly lit under the illumination of the billboard lights.
Masaharu Fukuyama, who plays the male lead Sena, is setting off fireworks alone on the rooftop.
One person cheered and smiled at the fireworks.
This scene strangely matches the slogan on the billboard!
Just as Masaharu Fukuyama was about to light a dazzling display of fireworks, Minami, the female lead played by Chikako Aoyama, appeared on the rooftop.
"fireworks."
Xiao Nan was a little out of breath after climbing the stairs.
"Why do you have to play alone?!"
Masaharu Fukuyama was momentarily at a loss for words.
He already knew that Minami was going to marry Sugisaki, and he had already decided that their relationship was over. That's why he wanted to set off all the fireworks that Minami had left for him. Was it a way of making a clean break?
But why is Xiao Nan here again at this moment?!
At this moment, the fuse of the fireworks had been lit, and Masaharu Fukuyama and Chikako Aoyama instinctively hid to the side, watching the fireworks rise into the sky.
The dazzling sparks, like fireworks blooming on a tree, were a dreamlike spectacle that captivated both of them. Midsummer night fireworks are only truly brilliant and beautiful when set off with a loved one.
Amidst such dazzling fireworks, Masaharu Fukuyama couldn't help but ask:
"What's wrong? What are you doing here? (Aren't you getting married? Why are you here looking for me?)"
"What are you doing here?"
Chikako Aoyama looked at Masaharu Fukuyama's profile, her heart fluttering, but her gaze gradually hardened.
"Come kiss me. Come kiss Sena!"
"."
Fukuyama Masaharu's heart was in turmoil, but he nodded calmly.
"Oh~"
Then, he gave Aoyama Chikako a quick, light kiss on the corner of her lips, and then hurriedly went to light another firework.
When the fireworks lit up the sky again, Masaharu Fukuyama couldn't resist his impulse this time. He straightened Chikako Aoyama beside him and kissed her deeply.
Under the cover of fireworks, all that could be seen was the silhouette of the two people embracing tightly—so beautiful, so sweet!
"Crack!"
Nishimoto Tomoyuki finally yelled "Cut!" and poked his head out from behind the camera.
"Very good! Excellent! Another classic scene!!!"
Meanwhile, Masaharu Fukuyama and Chikako Aoyama quickly separated and asked their group members for mouthwash to rinse their mouths.
"Ugh~~" "Spicy spicy spicy"
"Fukuyama-kun, you're ruthless!"
"Zhi Kezi Sang, we're in the same boat!"
One was fishy, the other spicy; the two finally achieved their goal of hurting each other!
Why were you hugging me so tightly just now?!
They didn't want the other person to escape!
Therefore, when watching famous scenes on TV, especially sweet and loving storylines, don't get too emotional or excited.
Maybe the actors were filming with the intention of hurting each other; they probably hated each other a lot!
Director Tomoyuki Nishimoto, looking at the two of them, couldn't help but laugh:
"You two are so childish!"
"This is a battle between young people!!" X2
"It was supposed to be such a romantic scene."
Nishimoto Tomoyuki didn't quite understand.
"You two are so beautiful and handsome, a kiss between you would be a win-win situation for both of you."
Why do we have to hurt each other?!
"."
Masaharu Fukuyama and Chikako Aoyama exchanged a glance, unsure of what to say.
Perhaps the two are too familiar with each other?
Perhaps they both knew that filming was nearing its end and were reminding themselves to detach themselves from the relationship?
In short, this action has a somewhat willful element.
"OK OK."
Nishimoto Tomoyuki clapped his hands.
"Have you all rested enough? We still have filming to continue!"
"Eh?"
Fukuyama Masaharu unexpectedly said,
"Director, didn't you say that take was good?!"
"yes."
Nishimoto Tomoyuki smiled and said in a somewhat gloating tone,
"But as I've said before, this is a famous scene, so it needs to be filmed from multiple angles."
"The rooftop is too small; we only got one shot so far, so we need to do it again from the front, the side, and from a distance."
"So, you two still need to kiss at least three more times!!"
"!!!"
Masaharu Fukuyama and Chikako Aoyama exchanged a glance, then quickly picked up mouthwash and continued rinsing.
Hurting each other once is enough!
Yama-oka-in
The latest episode of "Long Vacation" is currently airing on television; this episode was filmed two weeks ago.
Naoki Nagayama and Akina watched Sena and Konan's first kiss together, and Akina's eyes even welled up with tears of emotion.
"It's perfect!"
Akina murmured to herself,
"A first kiss by the Sumida River in the evening breeze. Such a beautiful scene."
"."
Although he wrote it, Naoki Nagayama couldn't quite understand it because Minami in the story actually had a boyfriend, and Sena actually liked his junior.
So, in reality, the two of them were... well... having an affair?!
"Has Naoki-san done this with other people before?!"
Akina suddenly looked over, her eyes sharp.
"Otherwise, how could they have written such an ambiguous scene?!"
"Akina, you're overthinking things again!"
Naoki Nagayama shook his head.
"Writers write based on their imagination! They don't necessarily have to experience things firsthand!"
"Besides, didn't I already tell Akina? I've only ever dated you in my life."
"Humph"
Akina gave a soft hum, somewhat disbelieving but unable to find any evidence.
"Who knows if they're hiding anything from me. They were so skilled during our first kiss and that time!"
"."
There's no way to deny it, but that's experience from a past life, it doesn't count in this life, he wasn't lying!
"Alright, alright. Focus on watching TV!"
Naoki Nagayama changed the subject.
"Masaharu Fukuyama and Chikako-chan in 'Long Vacation' both have pretty good acting skills!"
"Chikako-chan".
As Akina looked at the bright and sexy girl on the screen, she thought that Naoki and Aoyama Chikako seemed to have been neighbors before, and this girl was very suspicious!
She looked up at her husband's profile and realized that she couldn't relax for a moment if she wanted to protect Naoki-san!
Akina secretly made up her mind:
"We must squeeze Naoki dry at home, so that he won't have any other thoughts after he goes out!"
Later that night, in the bedroom.
The storm subsided, and the couple, lying in bed that night, whispered to each other.
"Akina~"
Naoki Nagayama stroked the soft flesh with one hand and asked,
Have you ever watched any particularly sad movies, TV series, or read any particularly sad novels?
"Ok?"
Akina replied lazily.
"Sad?"
"Yes, the kind of thing that makes you feel the same way after watching it, and you're completely immersed in the sad atmosphere."
Naoki Nagayama recalled his idea of making Akina sad, then singing "Nanpasen" and winning the Japan Record Award.
There's a saying that when singers sing sad songs, they have to desperately recall sad memories.
This is how you make the feelings seem genuine.
"Haha, that's not how it works!"
Hearing this, Akina laughed.
"If you want to sing a sad song, just immerse yourself in the melody! A good song can move people on its own!"
"Oh, I see. That seems to be true."
Songs like "Snow Flower" and "I Once Thought of Ending It All" have the power to touch people's hearts.
However, without the successful performances of the singers, these songs would not have become so famous.
Some songs are excellent in themselves, but they cannot be fully expressed without outstanding performances. For example, "Nanpasen" (The Shipwrecked Boat) would probably only be considered a decent enka song without Akina's performance.
So, it mainly depends on the person!
If you want Akina to deliver a peak performance in "The Lost Ship," you need to be prepared beforehand and experience the feeling of broken love and unrequited love.
"If Akina is going to sing a sad love song, shouldn't she experience the bitterness of love first?"
For a moment, names like Casablanca, Titanic, The Lake House, Autumn in My Heart, and A Moment of Romance flashed through my mind. Any one of these movies could probably make Akina cry her eyes out!
And it seems that Haruki Murakami's "Norwegian Wood" is about to be published!
"."
Akina didn't know why her husband was suddenly asking these strange questions, and then he strangely fell silent. He even talked about the bitterness of love.
"Naoki-san, let's forget about the bitterness of love for now, let's continue to experience the joy of love!"
"Huh? Huh?! What do you mean?"
Feeling Akina's hands begin to wander, Naoki Nagayama instantly understood the helplessness of a married man.
He's already 25 years old!!
The so-called "man over 25 is already 65"
Even if he exercises regularly and is physically strong, it's impossible for him to recover in such a short time!
"Akina, I think we should talk about other topics first, like humanities and history."
Emotional communication is still necessary between husband and wife!
Let's establish a spiritual connection!
"No, I just want a different kind of intimacy now!"
They've been married for a long time, and Akina's words are becoming increasingly unrestrained.
"Naoki-san, don't say anything more! You can't escape!"
Moreover, he flipped himself upside down and became inverted!
"Ah! Akina, Aki-maru, burlap sack!"
Outside the bedroom, Eitaro lay sprawled on the carpet once again.
Ugh, here we go again.
