Japanese Entertainment: From special effects actor to action superstar

Chapter 265 It’s no use leaving me a note

The crew members have been arranged and the preparations are complete. In addition to Gu Ming's large sum of money, Endai invested 10 million and Salia gave 3 million - hoping that Gu Ming can mention Crazy Thursday.

At that time, priority will be given to filming the female ghost part, because Yakushimaru Hiroko has taken a week off from school.

After that, we will ask Cheng Long to come and finish filming his scenes as the Hong Kong exorcist as soon as possible, and then the others will come last.

Tuan Shilang, who was currently playing a foreigner in the Dinosaur Super Ksai, was stunned when he received the notice.

You say, how come I, a mixed-race person who used to be a Shiseido advertising model and endorsed shampoo and conditioner, suddenly ended up playing a foreign priest in a movie?

But Akira Furuya has already said that the agency has decided that you will play this role.

Tuan Shilang had no choice but to recite it silently.

Amen!

Moritsugu Akira had heard about Tani Ming's plan to make a movie a long time ago, but he never came to see him. After all, he thought he had no position to speak for him.

Now that the filming is about to start, they still haven't found him, and Moritsugu Akira finally can't sit still anymore.

Today, he took a special walk around the office. While Gu Ming was still there, Moritsugu Akira came over jogging, feeling a little nervous.

"President, I..."

"Why are you suddenly so formal?" Gu Ming was surprised. "Is there something wrong with Wan Gu?"

"Not really, it's just that the president is preparing a film recently, and I, I have some ideas."

Akira Moritsugu was full of worries about this matter.

Gu Ming slapped his forehead and thought, "Oh my god!"

No wonder I felt something was wrong. I forgot to look for Akira Moritsugu.

He had actually thought of a role originally. A characteristic of Moritsugu Akira is that he looks relatively old.

Who would have thought that when he played Seven, he was almost the same age as Saburo Shinoda! When the two stood together, at first glance they looked like two generations, with Akira Moritsugu looking like the father!
Akira Moritsugu has a square face, which is quite traditional. This look, as the Japanese say, has an "ancient style".

So when he later played Hojo Shiji in the Taiga drama, he really looked good.

"I totally forgot! Sorry, Moriji-kun. Well, I found a role for you, but we haven't filmed it yet. Just focus on your work as Kesai, and I'll call you when the time comes."

Moritsugu Akira finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly bowed again.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Gu Ming suddenly called out to him.

"Moriji-kun."

"Yes, President."

"Actually, you don't have to be so formal. Do I look too serious?" Gu Mingyan said succinctly, "We don't have so many rules in our agency. As long as you perform seriously, everything is fine. There's no need to worry about this."

People like Manatsu Ryu have become my buddies and we don’t usually bring our own things on the set.

For example, if you want to wash your hands, you can use Gu Ming's towel, and if you want to eat, you can take the snacks that Gu Ming brought. Everyone coordinates to use Gu Ming's, and they are quite familiar with each other.

Moritsugu Akira was slightly taken aback, but still stood at attention and saluted.

It's quite difficult to get him to change all of a sudden.

Gu Ming could only shake his head secretly, thinking that this was not easy.

Not long after we sat down, the receptionist came over to find Gu Ming and said there was a phone call.

"Turn off the killing array work first. Let's finish filming the movie first. Then let me know about finding other actors."

"Neither, Furuya-kun, it was someone from Shochiku Eiga who called."

"Shochiku Pictures?"

Gu Ming was surprised and went over to answer the phone.

This call was indeed unexpected, a rare visitor. It was from Keiko Matsuzaka's agent, who called and said he hoped to visit, so Gu Ming agreed without hesitation.

Soon, they arrived at the office. The agent quickly looked around the office. Although it looked shabby from the outside, inside...

It was also shabby. Although shabby, the place was large and had a lot of equipment. Sometimes you could hear the sounds of training from behind the scenes, but it was hidden from view. In short, apart from the shabby place, it could be said to be quite formal.

There were three brand new cars lined up outside the door, specifically for picking up and dropping off actors, which was quite convenient.

He could tell with just a few glances.

Although it is a small and emerging firm, it can be said to be quite outstanding and its business level is very high.

"What a rare guest! Please take a seat."

Gu Ming has prepared tea. This time he asked Yakushi Marusaburo for tea. The quality is very good, much better than the previous high-end and fine tea.

Gu Mingren sat opposite, looking at Keiko Matsuzaka in front of him. Although they had worked together once before and were considered a screen couple, Gu Ming was not very impressed with her. He only knew that Keiko Matsuzaka later made many large-scale films in order to break through her image, and her performances were quite large-scale.

Keiko Matsuzaka bowed slightly and saluted.

The agent said: "It's like this, actually..."

Matsuzaka Keiko raised her hand to interrupt, "It's like this. Actually, I heard that Furuya-kun is preparing a movie. Although I have recommended myself before, I still want to say that if there is a suitable role, I hope Furuya-kun can consider me."

Gu Mington was a little troubled.

But there really isn't a suitable role.

Moreover, TV dramas are different from movies. Back to movies, that is the field that Keiko Matsuzaka is familiar with, so the asking price is a bit high!

You can't just spend 100 million yen casually!

The agent said: "It's like this, actually..."

Keiko Matsuzaka interrupted again and said what her agent had hidden.

"It's said that this is a supernatural film, and there might be a character that breaks through the norm. If that's the case, even a reduction in salary is fine."

Gu Mingdun pondered.

Does Matsuzaka Keiko have appeal? She does have some value, after all, as she was a frequent face in movies in the past and has starred in many art films. Although the box office was not very high, she is considered a formal entry into the industry.

If he lowers his salary himself, the price is certainly appropriate, but it's hard to say about the role.

"Sorry, the roles for this movie have already been booked, and there are no other suitable roles."

Gu Ming finally chose to refuse.

It's not an option to lower your own pay, no matter what, if there's no suitable role.

Matsuzaka Keiko didn't say much, but just stood up and bowed: "Excuse me, in that case, I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with Furuya-kun next time."

Seeing that the two of them had left first, Gu Ming also went out to see them off.

When he came back, Gu Ming looked at the opposite side, but he couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

this is……

On the sofa opposite, there was a dent like an apple.

There was also a note on it.

Gu Ming opened it and saw that it was a phone number.

"what……"

Gu Ming sighed, the meaning was quite clear.

A note with clear meaning!

"But it still doesn't work."

Gu Ming folded the note, tore it up and threw it into the trash can.

Of course, the work is the most important thing!
