Chapter 991 1000, Naoki-san, you put a lot of pressure on us!!!
It was almost noon when Naoki Nagayama returned to Yamazakurain. After getting off the car in a hurry, he originally planned to go home to change clothes and take a simple rest before going to the company.
The new footage for "Hayato: The New World", previews, and the release at the end of the year, all these things felt like arms pushing him from behind, making it impossible to stop.
After entering the room, the warm and fragrant atmosphere made him relax instantly after just coming out of the cold wind outside.
"I'm back~"
The dog was so welcoming, it was as if he hadn't seen me for several days~
Then, Akina, wearing an apron, poked her head out of the kitchen with a spatula in her hand:
"Naoki-san, why are you back now? Did you have lunch?"
"It's too late." Naoki Nagayama took off his windbreaker and walked into the kitchen. He looked at his wife who was cooking and hugged her gently. "It's ready. Is there any food for me, Akina?"
"Well"
Akina had a difficult look on her face. Because she didn't know Naoki Nagayama would be back at noon, she only made the staple food for one person. Now it's all cooked.
"Naoki-san can eat mine!" Akina made the decision~
".How can that be possible!" Naoki Nagayama shook his head and laughed, "I'm not to the point of stealing the child's mother and food!"
He rolled up his sleeves, took out the semi-finished instant noodles from the refrigerator, and started to make them himself. As a man, he just needs to eat a bite.
The Mingcai next to them also started beating eggs, frying sausages, and cutting some vegetables. Meal for two people is very different from meal for one person, at least the dishes need to be much richer.
The two of them were making lunch in the kitchen in harmony, and chatting about what happened when Naoki Nagayama returned home.
Naoki Nagayama mentioned that when he was watching a movie for his grandfather, his younger brothers secretly came to watch, and then went home to see their parents.
Akina talked about Tsuruko seeing the new manuscript in her study, and how Tsuruko was shocked and fascinated after seeing it, and she seemed very proud~
".well."
Naoki Nagayama sighed in his heart, hoping that Tsuruko would not lose confidence due to the blow~
It's like when a new author just signed a contract for a new book and the editor asked you to defeat Chen Dong, whose old age is unknown. Anyone would be so upset! !
The dishes made in the kitchen were not complicated, and the charming aroma quickly captured the hungry stomach. Naoki Nagayama and Akina enjoyed an ordinary lunch together, but felt very satisfied.
After dinner, they took a nap on the sofa. Akina turned around and asked:
"Naoki-san, are you going to the company this afternoon?"
Just as he was about to nod, Naoki Nagayama saw his wife's expectant eyes and subconsciously changed his tone:
"I'm not in such a hurry. I just came back from Shizuoka, so I should take a good rest~"
As soon as the words were spoken, the girl next to him immediately showed a bright smile:
"Then let's take a good rest!"
It is natural to feel lonely and uneasy occasionally during pregnancy, but with the company of your loved one, everything seems to disappear.
Seeing Akina happily showing him the new fruit soup she had learned to make, Nagayama Naoki felt a little sad. He had been working to earn money in order to lead a leisurely life, but now he was working just for the sake of earning money!
Turning his head to look at the yard outside the glass door, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have not appreciated the dry landscape in the yard for a long time, and he had not taken good care of the rockery and succulents in the corners for a long time.
He didn't even notice when the dwarf bamboo outside the wall became lush and green again after the expansion of the Yamazakura Courtyard.
"Didn't we agree to enjoy life~"
Mingcai, who was cutting fruit in the kitchen, suddenly sang "Sudden Love" for some reason, which made Naoki Naoki's thoughts suddenly become nostalgic~
At this moment, Miaotaro seemed to feel that the sofa was empty. He almost jumped up, but finally climbed up. He pretended nothing happened and lazily lay on the legs of the two-legged beast waiting for caress.
"As expected, Nyanotaro knows how to enjoy himself~"
The end of the year has passed in a flash, and the most anticipated news in the entertainment industry recently is, of course, the preview of Naoki Nagayama’s new movie!
Shuyou Films finally made a big news before the New Year, which made the media reporters say they disliked it, but they ran to the cinema to interview honestly~
The lineup of the exhibition corner at the "Bungeizu" movie theater in Ikebukuro has become increasingly large, and the movie posters of Shuyou Film have almost covered the walls. It is estimated that it will be renovated starting next year, and the posters will be reduced in size and rearranged.
Naoki Nagayama and Shuyou's employees were naturally already in the cinema waiting for the reporters and invited audiences who were about to arrive. The main creative team of "Hayato" was also already in place, but in order to avoid causing a disturbance, they waited backstage in advance.
In fact, Akina also wanted to come and watch it, but was stopped by Naoki Nagayama at home on the grounds that pregnant women cannot watch bloody and violent films, and he also made a lot of conditions.
As for the other audiences, he didn't care.
Anyway, this is how Japan's film ratings are. Violence and bloodiness actually have little impact on the release of a film. With Naoki Nagayama's current influence in the film industry, the Film Ethics Review Committee will not embarrass itself.
"Naoki-san, it seems we have a stake in this "Bungeizu", why don't we buy it~" Idou Shuichi said casually while waiting, "It feels like it has become a movie theater exclusively for Shuyou Films~"
"Haha, that seems to be the case." Naoki Nagayama remembered that apart from the Iwanami Cinema, almost all previews were held at this cinema. "It might be a good idea to buy it~"
Anyway, it's not like we don't have money now.
"Since Naoki-san agrees, let's start negotiations next year~" Idou Shuichi said in a flat tone. Now for him, buying a cinema has become a common thing.
"How's Shuichi-san's new movie going?" asked Naoki Nagayama.
"Ah, 'The Man Who Exists Zero'," Idou Shuichi seemed a little helpless, "Speaking of which, I wonder if it's a good idea to let Kijima-kun take the photo. Sometimes I even forget to take photos of him."
"."Kisama Kyon's characteristics are so terrifying!
"It's a modern setting anyway, so try to get Kijima-kun to wear your clothes. Xiuyi-san, people always pay more attention to their own things!"
"Good idea, I'll try it later."
Ito Osamu nodded in agreement. He didn't expect to get such good ideas from Nagayama Naoki. Just as he was about to continue talking about the movie, more and more audiences and reporters began to arrive.
"Naoki-san!"
Naturally, the two friends, Kobayashi Masaki and Shinoda Masahiro, who are much older than us, had to be invited.
"Masaki-san, Masahiro-san!" Nagayama Naoki naturally stepped forward to greet them, "Come on, come on, I've reserved the third row center seats with the best view for you."
"Hahaha, thank you so much~" Kobayashi Masaki is getting older and his body doesn't seem to be in good shape, but his laugh is still very contagious, "I can't wait to see your movie!"
"Ha, then I hope this movie lives up to Masahiro-san's expectations~" Naoki Nagayama personally led everyone to their seats, "Masahiro-san also hopes to give more suggestions"
"Hmm~"
Masahiro Shinoda is still relatively silent, but that's just his personality and Naoki Nagayama is already familiar with it.
The screening room was already half full, and many fans waved enthusiastically when they saw Naoki Nagayama, who also responded in a friendly manner.
What he didn't know was that there was actually a plainclothes policeman in the screening room today - Nan Junxiong
This old policeman who is about to retire still has to see this movie with his own eyes!
After returning to the lobby, waves of audiences continued to enter the theater, and there were also reporters with cameras and even interviewed Naoki Nagayama in the lobby:
"Naoki-san, what is your box office forecast for Hayato: New World?"
"Then" Naoki Nagayama glanced at the troublemaker and smiled, "Of course the higher the better!"
"Are you so confident?"
"Of course~" Naoki Nagayama showed the madness of a famous young director, "I am full of confidence in every one of my movies!"
"Because I have tried my best!"
The reporter wanted to laugh, but the person in front of him was Naoki Nagayama, who was endorsed by many high-grossing movies such as "Hachiko: A Dog's Tale", "That Summer, the Quiet Sea", "Love Letter", "Crows Zero", "Kikujiro's Summer" and so on!
In the entire film industry today, no one dares to say that there is a director who is better at selling movies than him~
"." After a snort, the reporter could only say, "Then we'll wait and see!"
“Hahaha~ Enjoy it!”
After the reporters entered, Idou Shuichi looked at Naoyama Naoki with some surprise:
"Naoki-san, why are you suddenly so high-profile with this reporter?"
In the past, Naoki Nagayama was always cautious and conservative when he was interviewed by the media.
"I don't know," Naoki Nagayama shrugged, "I suddenly wanted to say this."
"."
Idou Shuichi looked at the high-spirited young man next to him, and then he remembered that Naoki Nagayama was only in his early twenties! That's how it should be!
If you don’t have vigor and vitality, can you still be called a young person? !
The lights dimmed until the screening room was full of people, and "Hayato: New World" officially began to be shown!
Nan Junxiong looked at the policeman who appeared at the train station at the beginning of the film, and he missed them very much. The police uniform of the early Showa era was indeed the uniform he wore when he first became a policeman. He cherished it just like Miura Tomokazu on the screen.
The train station was no different from what I remembered. At that time, freight and passenger trains were all together, and the train station was filled with steam from burning coal.
Until the weird guy wearing a half-worn kimono, speaking half Japanese and half English and shouting "Yo~ Baga Aibo!!!" appeared, Nan Junxiong's brows suddenly frowned.
That guy is not a good person at first glance!!!
Then the protagonist, who is a policeman, actually greeted him warmly and said he wanted to bring him into the "informant plan"? !
how can that be!
The police department's informant program has never used ordinary civilians. They are all secretly selected from the police academy! ! ! Or they find someone in the community. How can the police encourage ordinary people to learn bad things? !
Nam Joon-woong clenched his hands. Sure enough, this movie was a mistake from the beginning!
However, other audiences in the cinema did not feel anything about this. Even Nagayama Hayato felt that this image was very novel and had an indescribable charm, which was very consistent with the appearance of the gangster when he was young.
As the plot develops, the first scene of the one-shot street chase soon features Nagayama Hayato's exciting fight in a street fight, which immediately gets the audience's blood pumping.
"Oh~~" "Huh?!" "Siguoyi" "Is it possible to do this?!" "That's amazing." "."
The audience in the screening room exclaimed, and followed the action on the screen, making sounds of inhalation or surprise, as if they were dubbing the movie.
The rhythmic beating of Hong Kong action scenes, and the use of props such as lime to create a sense of impact and power, are very exciting to watch.
Nagayama Hayato's own combat power was also revealed at once.
Kobayashi Masaki is not specialized in action scenes and just appreciated this scene, but Shinoda Masahiro was filming "The Power of Guns 3" and was very interested in the shooting techniques of action scenes. After seeing such a continuous action scene shot from beginning to end, I felt that I learned a lot!
If it is used in a samurai duel, can it solve the problem of a person falling down in a blink of an eye, blood stains flying, the scene changing, and the other person falling down?
It is sad and beautiful, but without the passion of the duel, it cannot show the superb martial arts.
"As expected, Kung Fu still has to be learned from China. It seems that I need to ask the Hong Kong martial arts instructor for some advice."
The movie continued to play. The plot of this movie was very smooth, with foreshadowing in every transition. The ups and downs of the plot were one small climax after another, making it impossible to take your eyes off it.
When the famous scene of "Who is in favor, who is against?!" came out, the whole audience sighed and felt that it was so domineering.
With the backdrop of the plot, the scene is far more shocking than in the trailer!
"Sure enough, a man like this is a gangster!" "He can actually say this without changing his expression! He is amazing in himself!" "So domineering!" "."
As people watched Nagayama Hayato gradually become addicted to the underworld, in addition to feeling sorry for him, they also realized that in the society of that era, this was the only way for people at the bottom to climb up.
On the contrary, Nan Junxiong cursed unconsciously when he saw the policeman and Nagayama Hayato parting ways in the movie.
"Baga! Idiot! I'm saving you!"
He had unconsciously put himself into the role of a policeman. Even in the depths of his consciousness, in his vague memories from so long ago, he seemed to have had a conversation with the gangster who had clashed on the street.
It seems to be asking why that guy wants to be in the Yakuza
"Nothing good will come of being in the underworld!"
Nam Joon-woong muttered to himself, but his eyes were fixed on the screen!
When the bloody battle in the underground garage and Nagayama Hayato fighting ten people alone in the elevator, the whole theater held its breath.
The bloody scenes in the narrow space, the power bursting out for the life-threatening, the cruel and bloody scenes
Finally, the elevator door opened, and Nagayama Hayato, who was covered in blood, was still unconsciously shouting "Asshole, come on!"
It was only at this time that the audience began to make noises, and the noise continued, forming a buzz of discussion and praise in the screening room.
"Ah!" "I can't stand it!" "Too violent!" "The best shot this year!" "So thrilling!" "So brave! Ancient generals were no more than this!" "Oda Nobunaga couldn't fight ten people alone!" "."
This heated discussion continued until Nagayama Hayato was taken to the hospital for emergency treatment. He was covered in bandages, and next to him stood Miura Tomokazu, who was wearing a police uniform.
As professional directors, Kobayashi Masaki and Shinoda Masahiro looked at each other in shock. There was a consensus in their eyes. This scene is another classic scene in the movie!!!
In the future, if directors want to shoot elevator action scenes, it will be hard to bypass "Hayato"!!!
"Naoki-san is a guy who really can't be underestimated!" "Yeah, action scenes are actually his strong point too?!"
Standing behind the screen, Naoki Nagayama carefully observed the reactions of the audience in the screening room, and sometimes even made a few notes in a notebook.
"Naoki-san," Idou Shuichi walked over, "You've been standing there for over an hour!"
"Haha, it's okay. I'm young!" Naoki Nagayama walked to the side and said to the audience on the other side, "Only by standing here can I see the audience's real-time feedback, so that I can find the parts of the movie that didn't catch the audience's attention!"
“After the preview, we can optimize it further!”
"."
Idou Shuichi didn't expect Nagayama Naoki to have such an idea and actually hide behind the screen to see the audience's feedback? !
Is this something a normal director could think of? !
"Naoki-san, why haven't I seen you use this method before?" Idou Shuichi asked with his mouth slightly moving.
“That’s something I just thought of recently.”
Shuichi Idou looked at Naoki Nagayama who was recording again, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Mr. Naoki, you are so young and yet so arrogant. How can we, the older directors, survive?
You put a lot of pressure on us!!!
