Japanese Entertainment: From special effects actor to action superstar

Chapter 267 Highlighting a Spoof

When the smoke and dust cleared, a face full of joy was revealed.

Yanagisawa Shingo: Hey! You never thought I'd become an actor!

He was of the right age and looked funny enough, making him very suitable for appearing in some comedies. Gu Ming, adhering to the idea that since he was already here, there was no need to waste it, so he called this man who later became Ultraman's uncle, a common gold medal supporting actor in Japanese film and television dramas, to play the role of this Shikigami.

This Shikigami is of little use in the plot, because Ken Shimizu doesn't care much about Onmyoji, so the Shikigami isn't very powerful, and it mainly serves to adjust the atmosphere.

Under Gu Ming's order, Shingo Yanagisawa packed up the things in his backpack in a few seconds.

The two left the venue together and handed the shooting scene to the staff outside the venue. Dozens of transparent fishing lines, hanging various prepared props, flew into the backpack and were packed neatly.

This will be followed by the action of Shingo Yanagisawa casting the spell.

Jissoji Akio reviewed the footage himself and thought it looked okay.

"Gugu-kun, you do have some ideas. I was wondering how to present a horror work like this with real people."

You know, nowadays, works involving horror themes are basically animated works.

Gu Ming spread his hands.

You don’t understand this!
"Hey, Furuya-kun." Jissoji Akio flipped through the script book and frowned, "Are you really going to shoot the next scene? It's a bit damaging to your image."

"Image doesn't matter. Image is meant to be ruined. Besides, this isn't a horror film, it's an action film set in a supernatural setting, so this kind of comedic element is essential."

Yanagisawa Shingo wiped the tip of his nose, a hint of pride still on his young monkey face: "How was my performance? Can it compare with Takakura Ken's?"

"It's still very early." Gu Ming raised his eyelids.

He couldn't even compare to Ken Takakura! How could he possibly compare to Shingo Yanagisawa?

Shingo Yanagisawa didn't take it seriously. He chuckled and started looking through the script for the next scene.

Of course you can't call yourself a Shikigami for nothing, there's a price to pay.

Although it was a family heirloom and the price was not high, Ken Shimizu lost his temper at this time and did not want to pay, so he was teased by Shingo Yanagisawa using magic and was forced to do many difficult moves with Gu Ming, which made Hashimoto Arina downstairs think that Ken Shimizu was in danger. Fortunately, he was able to get rid of it. Finally, Ken Shimizu took out a magic weapon from his backpack and suppressed Shingo Yanagisawa with one move.

This is also a foreshadowing, as Ken Shimizu will use this thing to severely injure Yakushimaru Hiroko, who plays the female ghost 'Himuro Kirie'.

At the same time, there is a second foreshadowing here.

Because Ken Shimizu owed him wages and sealed him with a magic weapon, the Shikigami is in a bad mood. He will not come out when he is needed in the future, which will create some funny scenes.

After reading it, Shingo Yanagisawa couldn't help but gasp at the Orb Ring.

This kind of drama is too big!

It's not the kind of scale where you take off clothes, but the kind of scale where there is no limit to the level of pranks.

"Is this okay?"

Thinking about how Gu Ming had forced him to work at Saria, Shingo Yanagisawa immediately became serious.

This is good!
Jissoji Akio sighed silently.

How could I, a director who aspires to make art films, be forced to make such a spoof film with no bottom line?

Soon, the camera began to film the Shikigami who had cleaned his backpack and was waiting for the reward, hoping that Shimizu Ken would give him some incense. However, Shimizu Ken had already put on his backpack and said he knew nothing about it.

Rewards, what rewards! I'm busy traveling!
The annoyed Shikigami immediately began to cast a spell to tease Shimizu Ken, causing him to make a fool of himself, taking off his clothes, throwing away his backpack, and walking upside down...

Mitohashimoto Aruna was downstairs, looking through the window at the frantic Shimizu Ken upstairs, her expression quite fascinating. "Hate it! Shimizu-kun, why are you taking off your clothes all of a sudden!"

"I, I don't think this top looks good enough, so I'll change it...ah!"

Under the trick of the shikigami, the clothes were torn into pieces.

"Actually, I haven't wanted this one for a long time. I like wearing this one...ah!"

Another piece of clothing was torn to pieces, and Ken Shimizu made a seductive pose under the teasing of the Shikigami. He then showed a coquettish expression, and took the initiative to expose his upper body, looking at his friends below.

"Youcai, what do you think of my figure?"

"me……"

Kanako Higuchi really wanted to control herself, but she couldn't stand the seductive posture and coquettish expression that Gu Ming was showing at the moment.

Fat Tiger: Handsome guys are always lonely·JPG!

Kanako Higuchi was very self-aware and immediately knelt down and saluted outside the venue.

"Yes, I'm sorry, Director! I, I won't laugh anymore."

Jissoji Akio sighed.

Girl, I don’t blame you. Actually, I couldn’t help laughing either!

It would be funny if ordinary people did this action, but combined with Tani Akira's handsome figure and tough face, his image is no less than that of Ken Takakura in women's clothing, which is quite funny.

"No, we can't shoot this scene. Higuchi, let's save your part for later, when we're filming without physical objects."

Letting Gu Ming continue performing, Jissoji Akio was worried whether they could finish filming today.

After being teased by the Shikigami, Ken Shimizu finally touched his backpack, took out a magic weapon, a mirror, and sealed the Shikigami temporarily. Then he breathed a sigh of relief, changed his clothes and went downstairs to meet up.

This first scene can be considered as the ending, but it mainly serves to serve as a prelude to the film, which means that this film has supernatural elements, but it is also a film with comedy elements.

Because all the other clothes were torn, Gu Ming finally changed into a long windbreaker. Although it looked a bit flashy in this early summer day, the style was quite outstanding.

This trench coat was also sponsored by a clothing manufacturer in Tokyo.

"Furuya-kun..."

Kanako Higuchi blinked, her eyes fixed on the outline of the body beneath the tight shirt.

It was originally very interesting, but unfortunately Yanagisawa Shingo jumped out at this moment to spoil the mood.

"Filming is so much fun. Can I still continue acting?"

"Of course, but there won't be many scenes after that." Gu Ming will cooperate with Yanagisawa Shingo to do an indoor scene. It's probably that Gu Ming asks him for help but he refuses to help. In the end, he pays a huge price to let Yanagisawa Shingo get the props back.

Then there is no more role for this Shikigami.

After Ken Shimizu and Arina Hashimoto meet up, they will meet Toru Kato played by Ryu Manatsu on the other side. The three of them make an appointment to travel to Nara in this midsummer season. On the way, the relationship between the three of them can be pointed out. It turns out that they are childhood sweethearts. At the same time, Arina Hashimoto has a good impression of Ken Shimizu, and Toru Kato has a good impression of Arina Hashimoto. Ken Shimizu... is a blockhead and does not seem to have any good feelings.

This is a standard opening for an American thriller.

Although it later became a routine, it was still amazing at the time, and the structure was quite complete, so much so that even Jissoji Akio couldn't help but marvel at it.

Gu Gujun, this doesn't look like your first time putting together a group!
