Depressive screenwriter.

Chapter 197 Audition and Rebellion
Ikumi Shinozaki was very quick. In just less than two days, she and her company's team and assistants compiled the information on each character appearing in the Rurouni Kenshin movie and FZ. Then she used her connections in the industry to send a list of relevant character information to all major and powerful entertainment companies in the industry.

The current Dimension Films Company is not the same as it was two years ago.

Some supporting roles still require Ikumi Shinozaki and Su Yan to personally audition. Ikumi Shinozaki only needs to send the information of each role to the other party. If the other company is interested, they will first select their artists internally before replying to Ikumi Shinozaki.

And, be absolutely serious.

In the current Xia country's film and television industry, who doesn't want to get on Su Yan's chariot?
Even if it's just a supporting role, it's much more popular than the protagonists in other dramas.

Soon, hundreds of audition lists for various roles in the two works were sent in from various companies in Xia Country.

And after Shinozaki Ikumi was confirmed, a large number of artists have already flown to Tokyo.

Starting from Thursday, a large number of actors arrived at the audition venue arranged by the Tokyo area branch.

Rurouni Kenshin is okay, but Fate Zero has a lot of Western culture mixed in, so there are also a lot of white people among the actors who need to audition.

Alexander the Conqueror, Lancelot, Emiya Kiritsugu, the various heroes that appear in the work can be said to be varied, and all kinds of actors came to audition
How could Dimension Films keep such a move secret?

Su Yan is now a beacon of Xia Country's TV drama industry, not to mention things like auditions.

A large number of news media and Su Yan's fans inquired through various channels and finally found out what Su Yan was doing.

As a post went viral online on Thursday, all of Su Yan's fans in Xiaguo were in an uproar.

Rurouni Kenshin Movie.

And the production of a new drama based on combat fantasy?

Are you crazy, Su Yan?
What kind of model worker are you?
Puella Magi Madoka Magica isn't over yet, there are still two movies to come.

Now there are two new works holding auditions.

In the Xia country's film and television industry, there are also talented screenwriters who produce three to five works a year.

But Su Yan is the only one who can produce this kind of output for several consecutive years.

Colleagues were shocked at Su Yan's output, but Su Yan's fans were celebrating like it was New Year's Eve.

White moonlight is special to everyone.

For Su Yan’s fans, if there is a white moonlight in Su Yan’s works, it is Rurouni Kenshin.

This was the first time they got to know Su Yan's works in Xia Country.

"Brothers, it's exploded!"

"We've been talking about the Rurouni Kenshin sequel, and now, it's here!"

"Damn it, I'm still confused. How come the old thief has become so considerate now?"

"Maybe he has a change of heart, knowing that he cheated us so badly before, so now he is giving benefits to our fans."

"A fantasy battle drama, and then a Rurouni Kenshin movie. I don't respect anyone but the old thief. He is truly a genius in the Xia country's film and television industry!"

"Are there any screenwriters in the film and television industry who can tell me what level of operation Lao Zei has? Is it normal for him to produce so many works in a year?"

"How can this be normal behavior? This guy is totally perverted."

"It's usually good for a screenwriter to produce one successful script every two years! Su Yan has produced several this year. And all of them are top-notch in the industry."

"No matter what, Su Yan meets all my fantasies about filmmakers. He is talented, good-looking, and his creative speed is extremely fast."

"I was originally worried that I might not see Su Yan's dramas for a long time after Puella Magi Madoka Magica ended. The dramas he is currently producing are all long-term works, with a production cycle of one year at a time. I didn't expect that he had already prepared for this."

"Brothers, don't say anything. Just because Su Yan works so hard, no matter what the plot of the last three episodes of Madoka Magica is, I will never criticize him!"

With just a little disturbance, the news about Su Yan spread throughout the Xia country.

Meanwhile, in the Tokyo area.

The audition for fz has officially begun.

In the prepared venue, hundreds of people held audition scripts in their hands.

"The moment hope turns to despair, how about this fresh taste of fear and death."

A sharp and excited voice sounded.

"Well, it's alright."

Su Yan ticked the boxes on his notebook, then smiled and signaled the actor who was auditioning for the role of Gilles de Ray to leave temporarily.

Then Su Yan shook his head slightly.

Then several more auditionees for this role came on stage, and Su Yan's expression finally relaxed.

"The progress is a bit slow!" Shinozaki Ikumi looked at the information recorded in Su Yan's notebook.

"There's nothing we can do about it if we go slower." Su Yan sighed.

“Fortunately, I have a clear understanding of the character’s special effects modeling and positioning. We are auditioning actors here, and the special effects companies we cooperate with are also preparing for the post-production special effects. When we shoot later, the progress will be faster and will not delay the plan.”

The drama Fate Zero has hundreds of characters, big and small, and there are basically no supporting roles. Even a minor role has its role to play.

Su Yan and Shinozaki Ikumi must at least determine the personnel of the seven heroic spirits and seven masters in this drama.

The auditions for other supporting roles were conducted by Su Yan and Shinozaki Yumi's assistants.

And although the auditions are mainly for fz roles now, a number of actors who may be suitable for the Rurouni Kenshin movie version have actually been discovered, so Su Yan has made very detailed records of the relevant matters.

"We hope to complete the auditions for these actors this week. Also, regarding the actors with Western faces who are both beautiful and heroic that you are looking for, many domestic entertainment companies have sent us photos, but I think they are somewhat different from Gu Qingyuan and Shen Liqian. However, among the students of Xiaguo Performing Arts School, we have found some very good talents, but they are pure amateurs." said Ikumi Shinozaki.

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter whether the actor is famous or not, as long as his image and acting skills are up to standard." Su Yan said.

"She may not be famous when the first episode of the show airs. But by the time the last episode airs, she will be famous."

"Then I will send audition invitations to these students." Shinozaki Ikumi said after a pause.

"You'll be busy next week. Add in the auditions for a bunch of supporting roles for Rurouni Kenshin, and there will be at least several hundred more people."

Su Yan's expression paused when he heard this, but he still sighed and said.

"I am mentally prepared."

For a drama like Puella Magi Madoka Magica, there are no more than twenty characters from beginning to end, including extras with lines, and the filming and auditions can be completed in a day or two.

But Fate and Rurouni Kenshin are indeed the works with the most tedious audition work for Su Yan since his debut in Xia Country.

Although the entire process was kept confidential, some details of Su Yan's company's audition still circulated until the evening.

For a whole week, related news was basically on the hot search list every day.

But soon, it was Sunday again.

By Sunday, these discussions were temporarily overwhelmed by the information from the Magic Circle.

Everyone's focus is on the ninth episode of Puella Magi Madoka Magica. How will the story continue? Will the happy ending in the eighth episode be destroyed by Su Yan himself?

It's night time, and all the Madoka fans are ready to go.
Shao Shichang prepared his favorite snacks and drinks early and waited in front of the TV.

Wait until the time is up.
When the new theme song sounded, Shao Shichang's eyes lit up as a new graduate and a long-time fan of Su Yan.

The theme song still shows the Magical Girls Five-Colored Sentai, which means that the plot of the ninth episode still revolves around these five people.

This is where things get interesting.

"After the eighth episode, how can the plot of this work be developed? What can Homura Akemi do in the reset world?"

Shao Shichang was still confused when the theme song ended and the title appeared.

[The Story of Rebellion. 1]

The style of painting suddenly changed.

In the city under the night sky, the girls move in the dark, searching for traces of the curse in the twisted world.

The first to appear is Tomoe Mami.

She was singing. Then the snack witch appeared.

That's the little cutie whose head was bitten off by Mami in the third episode.

Shao Shichang's eyes widened.

what's the situation?
It would be fine if Kyoko Sakura appeared.

Even Sayaka appeared with a smile on her face.

And what the hell is the snack witch?

Finally, it's Madoka.
wake up.

Xiaoyuan woke up hugging a pillow.

This scene seems familiar. It is the scene where Madoka wakes up in the first episode of Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

?

Shao Shichang has already expressed that he doesn't understand.

"What's going on? Is Madoka still here? Su Yan, that old thief, is cheating on me? Did he forget that Madoka died in episode 8?"

Or is this episode a reflection of Madoka's past experiences?

It was the same morning as usual at Xiaoyuan's house.

The only difference is that now Madoka has become a magical girl.

Today, there is also a transfer student in her class.

She also has a pet rabbit, Kewpie, at home who accompanies her day and night.

The new transfer student is Homura Akemi.

But at this time, Homura Akemi had her hair braided into pigtails, looking exactly like when she first met Madoka.

So, if this is a flashback plot, it is the first week of Madoka and Homura?

No, not at all.

In the flashback story of the seventh episode, Homura Akemi and Madoka's first meeting was completely different.

Moreover, Homura Akemi actually knows Mami Tomoe. She transferred here and is a magical girl.

And the enemies of these magical girls are not witches, but nightmares.

All the members of the Five Colors Team gathered together and got along very harmoniously.

what?
Did I miss an episode?

Shao Shichang couldn't understand it. He stared at the plot on TV while searching the forum on his mobile phone.

When I clicked on it, I found that a lot of people had posted the same thing as him.

"can't read!"

"What's the plot?"

"At first I thought that the old thief Su Yan made a mistake himself, but now it seems impossible. If he could make such a mistake, his subordinates would not fail to remind him. Is there any deeper meaning behind it?"

"parallel world?"

"What is a nightmare?"

"Where's the witch?"

"Awesome! The old thief is really going to cause trouble."

"Let's see first."

The following plot made Shao Shichang even more confused.

The so-called nightmare of the magical girl's enemy is actually the evil born in the heart of a person whose mind has been invaded by a curse.

The five of them went out to eliminate the darkness in their friend Hitomi Shizuki's heart.

Now Shao Shichang has given up.

This episode's plot is the same as the previous eight episodes except for the characters.

The settings are completely different.

Even in the reset world, the curse still exists in the form of Warcraft!

What the hell is this nightmare?

You old thief, are you being a riddler again?

Moreover, the silhouettes of the next five magical girls transforming also reveal a weird atmosphere.

Although the music is cheerful, the painting style is particularly weird.

It has obvious metaphorical information compared to the scenes when the five team members died in the previous eight episodes.

"What kind of setting is this? Is there any foreshadowing in Puella Magi Madoka Magica that I didn't notice?" Shao Shichang has begun to doubt whether he has missed the previous plot.

　I have some things tonight and I have no time to write from day to night.

　　It’s okay from Monday to Friday, but all kinds of emergencies are likely to happen on the weekends.

　　There will be only one update tonight. Sorry.
