Chapter 51 Director Onino is the hope of Japanese movies! Watanuki Tatsuzo's calculations, conflicts arise!

"Shocking! "That Summer, the Quiet Sea" won the Venice Silver Lion! The dark horse director is still a dark horse!"

"A man who rose like a whirlwind! It only took him one month to go from obscurity to world-famous!"

“A triumphant return! The only film from Japan to win an international award this year!”

"That man, he's back!"

"Director Onino, the hope for the future of Japanese cinema!"

As the Venice Film Festival came to a close, the news reached Neon, causing another huge sensation.

Gui Yewu returned home with the Silver Lion in his hand, full of honor, which was equivalent to building a golden body. Naturally, he was warmly welcomed by the entire Japanese media.

Some media even exaggeratedly compared him to the hope of Japanese cinema!
The name Onino Takeshi was well-known throughout Neon, and he could even compete with Kudo Shinichi in the Tokyo area.

The media's excitement makes sense.

Since the late 80s, Japanese films have been in a slump, and most of the box office rankings in later generations have been occupied by animated films and Hollywood movies.

Coupled with the rise of pink films, a large amount of hot money and personnel have poured into this field, making it difficult for serious films to make progress.

Currently, Hollywood movies and Hong Kong movies dominate the Japanese market, and local movies are not even on the list.

Famous directors such as Akira Kurosawa, Nagisa Oshima, and Yasujiro Ozu have either retired or fallen into a slump, and can no longer lead Japanese films to conquer the world as they did in the past.

The new generation of directors is suppressed by Hollywood and Hong Kong, and it is difficult for them to grow.

It can be said that today's Japanese films are in an awkward situation of being in a period of transition.

The sudden appearance of Takeshi Ono and "That Summer, the Quiet Sea" is like a shot in the arm for the entire Japanese film market!

Let everyone see that Japanese movies can be so powerful.

——"That Summer, the Quiet Sea" surpassed all foreign films released during the same summer season, although that was because the other side did not release any strong films.

But it is undeniable that "That Summer, the Quiet Sea" cheered up all those who were worried about Japanese movies.

What's more, Takeshi Ono also won the Venice Silver Lion, which brought great glory to Japanese films.

It is understandable that it is being enthusiastically sought after or even praised.

Of course, "Blue Kingdom" also performed well, but unfortunately it was born at the wrong time and met Gui Yewu. Now it has no possibility of catching up.

This summer is destined to belong to "That Summer, the Quiet Sea" and to Takeshi Ono.

……

However, Takeshi Onino, who should have received all kinds of honors, did not accept any media interviews at this moment, but returned to Onino Film in a low-key manner.

"what happened?"

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the trio sitting inside with sad faces. The atmosphere was quite serious.

Gui Yewu asked immediately.

"Boss?!"*3
When the trio saw Gui Ye Wu appear, they were overjoyed.

I suddenly felt energized, as if I had found a backbone.

"You are finally back!"

Gui Yewu strode in, his face serious and stern, and glanced down at the trio condescendingly.

Feeling that familiar, tingling feeling of oppression, the trio were both surprised and delighted.

Muranishi Toru unscrupulously brought a chair to Onino Takeshi.

The latter sat down and looked at the trio.

The conversation on the phone was vague, and Takeshi Ono only knew that the Watanuki Group was causing trouble, but he was not clear about the specific situation.

"It's Watanuki Tatsuzo!"

Shimizu Hayato slammed the table and cursed.

“That damn old guy wants to invest in our Onino Film Company. It’s obvious that he saw the high box office of “That Summer, the Quiet Sea” and wants to get a piece of the pie!

Bah, it's just a dream!"

Kenichi Takakura and Toranoana were also indignant at the shameless behavior of the Watanuki Group.

Gui Yewu didn't say anything, but a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Is the old guy jealous and can't wait to pick the peaches?

Want to eat fart!

Just based on the old guy's words?

Of course, Takeshi Onino would not agree to Watanuki Tatsuzo's request. How could he allow others to touch what was in his pot?
But even though I think this way, I still need to consider how to do it specifically.

Takeshi Ono is not an impulsive person. He is very clear that the power of the Watanuki Group is not on the same order of magnitude as that of the Ono Group.

Talking about this, the trio also fell silent.

No matter how unhappy they were, they knew they couldn't force it. The Ono Group simply didn't have the strength to go head-to-head with Watanuki Tatsuzo.

Now that the other party has set his sights on me, he will not give up easily.

Watanuki Tatsuzo left a message and invited Onino Takeshi to meet him, which was obviously a Hongmen Banquet with bad intentions.

Before the excitement of the movie's success had worn off, the Onino Group was faced with its biggest crisis.

Everyone was very depressed and cursed at Watanuki Tatsuzo, but they could do nothing about it.

In the end, Takeshi Kiyono made the decision that he couldn't avoid it, so he went to meet with Tatsuzo Watanuki to test his attitude first.

If we can negotiate, that's the best. If we can't, we'll have to find another way.

Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in Guiye Wu's eyes again.

……

The headquarters of the Watanuki Group is much more grand and luxurious than the shabby yard of the Onino Group, and it is located in Chiyoda Ward, not far from the Imperial Palace.

After entering the door, there is a guard post every ten steps and a sentry every five steps. The momentum is extraordinary and cannot be compared with the ghost group of three or two big cats and small cats.

"Hahahaha!"

At this moment, a burst of laughter came from the yard.

"My dear nephew, your movie shocked the world. You are indeed a young and promising man! You are indeed the grandson of Onino Wakanosuke. It is a cause for celebration that the Onino Group has a successor!"

Watanuki Tatsuzo enthusiastically praised Takeshi Onino sitting opposite him, his old face filled with smiles, without any trace of his previous contempt and disdain for Takeshi Onino.

But that smile looks so fake no matter how you look at it.

Gui Yewu was not a fool, and he pretended to be humble and flattered him: "Team Leader Watanuki, thank you for the compliment. It's just a small achievement, not worth mentioning."

Watanuki Tatsuzo acted unhappy: "Hey, why call me team leader? Call me uncle. Your grandfather and I are old acquaintances."

Yes, you guys even had a fight!

Gui Yewu secretly complained in his heart, but he looked flattered on the surface and even said he didn't dare.

The two of them exchanged false compliments, and a meaningful look suddenly flashed across Watanuki Tatsuzo's eyes. He looked at Gui Ye Wu and changed the subject:
"My dear nephew, you just said that you have only achieved a small success, but I don't agree with you.

As far as I know, the movie "That Summer, the Quiet Sea" is about to reach 30 billion box office, right? This is no small achievement! "

coming!

Gui Yewu's heart trembled, knowing that the main course was about to be served, and he immediately perked up.

Immediately put all the blame on Toei:

"Uncle, you don't know. Although the movie box office is high, the publicity, distribution and theaters are all owned by Toei. They want to take the lion's share. I, the producer, worked so hard, but in the end I can only get a tiny profit. I am so miserable~"

Hearing his shameless complaints, Watanuki Tatsuzo's forehead was filled with black lines.

"Nephew, please don't bully your uncle because he doesn't know anything about this. As far as I know, you can get at least 30 billion out of the 10 billion, right?!"

"Damn it! That old man is pretty smart!"

Seeing that he couldn't fool people, Gui Yewu rolled his eyes and came up with another idea:
"To be honest, this movie of mine is invested by the Suzuki Group, and more than half of the 10 billion will be handed over to them."

When he heard the name of the Suzuki Group, fear suddenly appeared in Tatsuzo Watanuki's eyes.

Even if it is a mud participant, it is just a bigger ant in front of the Suzuki Group and is not worth mentioning.

Tatsuzo Watanuki didn't expect that Takeshi Ono would be related to the Suzuki Group. This was something he had not anticipated.

I couldn't help but hesitate.

Competing with the Suzuki Group for food, do you think you have lived too long? !

and many more!

Watanuki Tatsuzo suddenly frowned and looked at Onino Takeshi with suspicion.

"Is this guy trying to trick me? How can a Yakuza like you be related to the Suzuki Group?

Besides, you had no fame at all before, so the Suzuki Group would have to be blind to invest in you!
It was a close call, I almost got fooled by this cunning guy!"

Thinking that he had uncovered the other party's trick, Watanuki Tatsuzo secretly sneered, and simply stopped trying to hide it, and directly revealed his true intention:
"To be honest, I invited my nephew here this time because I want to invest in Onino Eiga. Do you have any objection?"
