Violence supervision in Conan

Chapter 47 Venice Movie Chapter

Chapter 47 Venice Film Festival
“This is Venice!”

"Wow, look at that golden cat over there, Si Guoyi!"

"Hiss, it really deserves to be called 'E Big Grain'~"

On the special car from the airport to the hotel, Muranishi Toru kept shouting all the way, staring at the scenery outside the window with his lustful eyes.

Gui Yewu was so upset that he couldn't help but move his butt to the side.

Could you please stop just staring at the evil one, you idiot!
The scenery is obviously very beautiful, did Shuicheng know that?

Very moist...Oh no, how embarrassing!

Gui Yewu regretted bringing this guy out.

But there was no one available. Kenichi Takakura and the others were busy with the affairs of Onino Eiga and Onino Group and had no time to spare, so they had to ask this guy to take the blame.

Soon, the special car arrived at the hotel that had been booked in advance. Gui Yewu got out of the car, and a man with glasses who had been waiting at the door immediately came up and bowed.

"Hello, Director Onino. I am Tsuyoshi Aoyama from Toei's External Relations Department. Welcome to Venice."

Gui Yewu shook his hand and said, "Do you know me?"

Qingshan just glanced at him inconspicuously, his face was unnatural for a moment, and then he quickly smiled again:
"Director Onino has an extraordinary temperament and can be recognized from the crowd at a glance."

Gui Yewu smiled with satisfaction. As expected of an external relations staff, he was good at telling lies.

Qingshan Gang did not show any embarrassment at all. He smiled and stretched out his hand: "The room has been arranged. Please follow me."

"Touch more."

……

Onino Takeshi and his companion went back to their room to put their luggage away, and then went to the hotel cafe with Aoyama Tsuyoshi.

After ordering coffee, the three of them got down to business.

"I have good news for you, Director Onino. Your film has just been announced as one of the main competition units."

Qingshan Gang said with a little excitement.

This year, only two films from Japan were successfully selected for the Venice Film Festival, one of which was "That Summer, the Quiet Sea" promoted by Toei.

And it also entered the main competition unit!
Of course, some operations are indispensable, which is why Aoyama Tsuyoshi is so excited. If this movie can achieve some success, he will have the hope to go further!
Therefore, Tsuyoshi Aoyama was very enthusiastic towards Takeshi Onino.

After hearing what Tsuyoshi Aoyama said, the coffee cup that Takeshi Ono had just raised suddenly stopped in mid-air, and an expression of uncontrollable surprise appeared on his face.

It actually happened!

Originally, he just mentioned it to Kenichi Kikuchi with a try-it attitude, and wanted to submit "That Summer, the Quiet Sea" to the Venice Film Festival in order to create another wave of popularity.

Japan’s film festivals are basically held in February and March, so it’s definitely too late.

So Takeshi Ono set his sights on foreign film festivals, and the Venice Film Festival, which happened to be held in September, immediately caught his eye.

The Venice Film Festival is not only one of the three major film festivals in Europe, but also the one with the longest history and extraordinary influence.

If he can win something at the Venice Film Festival, it will not only be an honor, which will increase Takeshi Onino's status, but the movie's box office will definitely reach a new peak.

However, the three major film festivals are extremely strict in selecting films, and he has no other choice. He can only do so with the help of a large studio like Toei.

I was shocked to hear that Takeshi Ono was so "arrogant". He had just made his first movie and he dared to dream of participating in the three major film festivals. He was so bold!

Kikuchi Kenichi was severely shocked.

At that time, "That Summer, the Quiet Sea" had not yet been released, the box office was unknown, and Takeshi Ono did not have the influence and voice he has today.

But after being surprised, Kenichi Kikuchi thought about it and finally agreed.

Speaking of which, Takeshi Ono was lucky to have picked up a loophole. At present, Toei does not have any suitable films to be submitted for the Venice Film Festival. Kenichi Kikuchi has seen "That Summer, the Quiet Sea" and found it to be really good. It very much meets the requirements of the group of "literary youths" in Europe, so there is not no hope.

Another reason is what the Suzuki Group said: full support!

Therefore, at the insistence of Takeshi Ono, Kenichi Kikuchi agreed to submit "The Quiet Sea That Summer" to the Venice Film Festival and carry out related operations.

As for the outcome, we can only leave it to fate.

Facts have proved that Takeshi Ono is very lucky. "That Summer, the Quiet Sea" was not only successfully selected as an exhibition film at the Venice Film Festival, but was also shortlisted for the main competition unit!

That's eligible for the Golden Lion award!

Not only Takeshi Onino, but even Kenichi Kikuchi was surprised when he received the news, followed by a burst of excitement.

As long as "That Summer, the Quiet Sea" can win an award, I don't even expect the Golden Lion, as long as it is a major award, plus its current box office is far ahead of others, the possibility of it taking the top spot is almost certain!
Seeing hope, Kenichi Kikuchi immediately took it seriously and stepped up his efforts in an effort to win the award. He was even more nervous than Takeshi Ono himself.

Of course, Gui Yewu was also very happy.

When he proposed this matter, he never thought that it would be so smooth, so he left the good situation at home and hurried to Venice.

Muranishi Toru next to him was even more excited than him. He didn't bother to look at the big villain anymore. He looked at Gui Yewu with admiration, and a series of "Si Guo Yi" burst out of his mouth.

This guy is gradually being assimilated by the trio. Finally, Qingshan Gang reminded that the screening of the main competition unit will be held in two days, and then the awards will be held.

"We leave for Lido tomorrow."

Gui Yewu nodded, stood up and prepared to leave.

Suddenly he stopped, turned around and asked, "What's the other movie that was submitted?"

Qingshan Gang looked at him with a slightly strange expression and replied, "The Blue Kingdom."

Onino Takeshi:......

It is true that enemies meet on a narrow road!
……

The Venice Film Festival is held on Lido Island, which is one of the larger islands in Venice. It is said that only this island has cars.

There is no water city scene here, it is just like an ordinary island, but there are also some extraordinary places.

When you come here, you will feel the malice of capitalism. Almost everything costs money, and it is very expensive.

Take the beaches for example. This island is only 12 kilometers long, and most of the beaches are owned by hotels, which are private beaches. Although there are public bathing beaches, the foreigners are really unrestrained. Except for lsp like Muranishi Toru, Onino Takeshi is not interested at all.

Every parasol and every bench here has to be rented.

At least a few hundred dollars a day. When Muranishi Toru heard the price, his eyes widened. He could only stay in the hotel and not go anywhere.

Faced with the choice between money and disaster, he wisely chose the former.

The two poor guys stayed in the hotel for two days, waiting for the film festival to begin.

It is worth mentioning that during this period, Gui Yewu accidentally saw a piece of news broadcast on TV -

A gang of robbers robbed a bank of 15,000 maple leaf gold coins and is currently on the run. Local police hope that citizens can provide relevant clues.

Gui Yewu couldn't understand Italian, but he figured out what happened by guessing.

With his memory greatly improved, he recalled it on the spot. This should be the case of the Standing Group of the Boy Detective League.

Many protagonists of Conan fan fiction became rich by relying on these maple leaf gold coins.

But Gui Yewu was not moved at all.

Not to mention that Conan is gone, whether things will change or not, it is possible that the boss has changed the place where he hid the gold coins.

Another thing is that this is stolen goods, and getting rid of it afterwards will be a big problem. It also involves an international case, and one could get into trouble if one is not careful.

He is a celebrity now and is working in the entertainment industry. Isn't this just asking for negative publicity? Doing this is completely a case of losing the big picture for the small.

The most important thing is that these maple leaf gold coins are only worth 6 million yen. Now the box office of "That Summer, the Quiet Sea" has reached 15 billion, and he can get one third of it!

That’s a full 5 million!
This is not the final benefit.

Adding the share from "When the Prayer Ends", it is no less than these gold coins.

And it’s honest money!

Onino Takeshi now wants to take the right path and even wants to clear his identity as a Yakuza.

Why get into trouble for a little money?
If I had just traveled through time and was penniless, I might have been tempted, but now I have no interest at all.

The same is true for treasures that have appeared in other cases.

There are always some troubles.

If he happened to come across one and could do it without anyone noticing, Gui Yewu certainly wouldn't mind taking a chance, but there was no need to look for him deliberately.

With all the resources in the world at your disposal, how can you make money by making movies?

Therefore, Takeshi Ono just took a look and didn't take the news to heart anymore.

Pulling away, get back to business.

There is a place called the Cinema Palace on Lido Island, where all the participating films are hosted and screened.

Gui Yewu and his companions arrived too late and missed the opening ceremony.

Gui Yewu didn't feel sorry about this. "The Quiet Sea That Summer" itself was not well-known and no one knew him, so he naturally didn't want to make himself look bad.

So I didn't walk the red carpet.

In fact, there is a red carpet ceremony every day of the film festival, which means that if you want to go, you can come every day.

This is how some of the "carpet stars" of later generations came about, but in fact they are not very impressive at all.

Soon, two days passed.

The screening has begun...
