Idols looking for wives in Tokyo

Chapter 280 I grew up watching TVB!

The next morning, just after finishing breakfast at the hotel, his agent here also arrived.

He was a fair-skinned and well-mannered young man who was wearing a suit even in the hottest weather.

"Hello, Mr. Mitsumoto."

The young man shook hands with him.

"I'm your on-site agent, Jiang Xuejin, just call me Xiao Jiang."

"Haha, Xiao Jiang is also a handsome guy."

Although the other person looked a few years older than him, Ying Hai still called him very smoothly.

"where."

Hearing Yinghai's fluent Mandarin, the young man smiled embarrassedly, and then took out a itinerary.

There are English and Chinese versions.

"I feel relieved to see that you are so fluent in the language. As for the itinerary, we don't have anyone majoring in Japanese here."

"It's okay, I can understand."

Overall, this itinerary is not too full.

If this small test passes, I will have a box lunch in the afternoon and join the crew immediately. And because it is the first shoot and there is a running-in period, we have to shoot here for a full five days.

"I'm glad you understand. This itinerary was prepared after consultation with your company. It shouldn't conflict with your schedule?"

At this time, the young man looked at the other party and felt a little unsure. After all, he was an actor over there. Although he spoke Mandarin very well, he didn't know if he would act like a big shot or something. If that was the case, he would be in trouble as a live agent.

Neither side pleases.

"No conflict, that's it."

"it is good!"

After hearing Ying Hai's agreement, the young man's tone couldn't help but become a little higher.

"And don't worry if there's a test. It's just a normal chat and a test of your acting skills."

"Based on your performance in Shenqu Village, there will definitely be no problem."

In fact, movies like Kamisama na Nakadashi and Rurouni Kenshin are shown here, so although Yinghai is not well-known here, it is still there.

"Okay, I feel relieved to hear Xiao Jiang say that."

Ying Hai smiled politely.

"where."

Xiao Jiang coughed again embarrassedly.

It’s great to meet such a considerate artist who doesn’t look like a big star.

He was worried for a long time when he came here, and he was so worried that he didn't sleep well last night.

"So we're leaving now? My car's right outside."

Time waits for no one, Xiao Jiang said hurriedly.

"please."

Ying Hai nodded, and the three of them took a car to TVB's headquarters in Tseung Kwan O.

The area here is larger than the filming areas in Yinghai. It is directly a TV city, not a building.

It even integrates a filming location. If you really want to make a comparison, it is more like TBS TV's Green Hill Studio in Yokohama, which is directly on a hilltop. There are also areas in the suburbs where filming can be set up. That area is 280,000 square meters.

Although this place is only 110,000 square meters, the layout is much more compact.

It consists of a total of six buildings, including broadcasting, variety shows, drama, and news.

Overall it’s really huge, but considering that this is a combination of a TV station and an agency, it’s not that surprising.

Moreover, the entire TVB is integrated into one TV city here, while it is separated into several locations over there. Sometimes variety shows and TV dramas are not recorded in the same place. In comparison, it is much more convenient here.

Xiao Jiang, who showed his work ID, quickly took him into one of the huge recording studios set up on the ground. There were twenty-one such studios here.

The vast area and many scenery styles that are completely different from those in Japan also made Yinghai feel like he was really back home.

"Then first we'll go find the director and producer."

Xiao Jiang walked along the edge of the studio and led the way. "This place is a little different from over there. Most of us are from the same company, so, uh..."

“So they have a lot of power.”

Yinghai helped Xiaojiang to continue the conversation.

In fact, even Xiao Jiang is a TVB employee.

"Yes."

Xiao Jiang smiled bitterly.

At least the agency there can still have some say, and besides the real mainstay TV dramas, all other TV shows can be bought and sold as long as money is paid.

It's different here, because it's a TV station. For every drama, the director has more power than the supervisors in the prime time over there.

There isn't much that needs to be outsourced, so there are relatively fewer opportunities.

Of course Ying Hai doesn’t care now, since he is not a newcomer anymore.

He wasn't afraid of Mary, so he wouldn't be afraid of a director.

And the contract is not really here. What he signed with this side is just a foreign aid department contract.

They are not full-time, and are usually signed by famous local artists who are starting to expand abroad.

There is no fixed monthly salary, he is paid directly when he accepts a role. He signed a contract to complete two films in three years.

Of course, the money is also divided into different levels. The more famous you are, the more expensive it is. For someone like Ying Hai, who is famous outside but not very famous here, the salary he gets is pitifully low, almost the same as the salary offered by NHK.

Fortunately, there is some conscience here, and food and accommodation are provided in the cooperating hotel.

Otherwise, if he deducts the cost of food, accommodation and transportation while filming here, he won’t even be able to make back his investment.

With this in mind, the three of them quickly entered one of the rooms backstage in the studio.

"Mr. Wen, Mr. Ye, hello."

After entering the room, Yinghai bowed slightly and shook hands with the two people.

"Mr. Mitsumoto, I'm glad you came."

Wen said this politely, but Ye's producer on the other side was obviously not very fond of him.

Ying Hai didn't care and just smiled at the two of them.

“It is also my honor to have the opportunity to participate in the drama here.”

"I have watched many TV series produced by your company before and have always dreamed of coming to shoot here."

"Oh?"

Both of them were slightly surprised when they heard this. This was the first time they heard of this. Moreover, the TV drama industry in Japan is much more developed than the film industry. Most people are saturated with watching local dramas on TV. It is hard to imagine that this person actually said that he has watched many TVB dramas.

"What have you seen?"

That Ye did not respond in a polite manner, but still had a bit of coldness in his eyes.

Wen did not stop him. Young people who like to talk nonsense still need to be warned.

However, what they didn't expect was that after hearing this question, Ying Hai actually talked about many of the dramas they had filmed before.

Not only did he say it, but he also said it clearly and there was a hint of nostalgia on his face as he spoke.

It's as if I watched him grow up.

"."

"Ha ha ha ha"

Ye was speechless, while Wen burst into laughter.

He was very happy to see Ye, who had always been at odds with him, being humiliated. He was even happier that Yinghai could say such words. After all, his shadow could be seen in many of the dramas he mentioned.

Who doesn’t want to be praised? And not just by ordinary people, but by the top stars there.

Thinking of this, Wen looked at Yinghai and felt more satisfied.

If Ye hadn't insisted on testing something, he might have started discussing the new drama with others right now.
