Japanese Entertainment: From special effects actor to action superstar

Chapter 292 Sorry, I Just Want to Be Takeda Shingen

Extreme Action Agency.

Ryu Manaka is not here today. He went to Toei to audition for Spider-Man.

Moritsugu Akira and Dan Shilang walked into the small office and were somewhat nervous when they saw Gu Ming.

So, if you have any good things to do, go find them.

"Oh, Murata-kun, Moriji-kun, you're both here. Let's cut to the chase."

Gu Ming pulled over the whiteboard and drew a few strokes on it.

"Wang Gu is planning to make a new work, and there are quite a lot of investors. So I plan to take a few people to meet with them and see if they are interested in choosing the protagonist."

"You two are the most suitable people in the firm right now!"

Koji Moriji:

It’s a good thing indeed!
It really is a good thing!
It’s a good thing indeed!
Tuan Shilang: So good? I just arrived and I have the chance to be the protagonist?

Gu Ming stood up and patted the two men on the shoulders solemnly.

"To be honest, I've always trusted you two. In the entire firm, you're the ones I trust the most."

Moritsugu Akira said, "Isn't it Shinatsuryu?"

"That's not important. Anyway, I really hope that you two can get the leading role. If you can't, don't be discouraged. The agency and Toei are collaborating on Kamen Rider V3. Whoever fails can go there to play a role."

Akira Moritsugu recited a poem at that time.

……

……

In the end, as expected, Dan Shilang was chosen by TBS and Endai.

Akira Moritsugu was only recommended by Toei, so he was naturally not selected.

But it doesn't matter, Gu Ming recommended him to play a Shocker cadre in the Kamen Rider V3 theater.

When the time comes, let Akira Moritsugu shout.

The end of Kamen Rider has come!
For Tuan Shilang, this was really news that made him ecstatic.

A children's play is still a play! It's awesome to be the lead!
As for the other actors, they are easy to arrange.

For example, there is a member of the Nan Meng team in Guimanli, and this person is Shunsuke Ikeda from the Ono Sword Club. He has a ready-made one and can be used directly.

It was also easy to find other male and female actors. Gu Ming didn't bother with unimportant roles, as someone would naturally arrange them.

This time, Tetsuo Kaneshiro did not return to his hometown, Mantani Ichi was not dead, and Mantani Eiji was still alive.

I believe it will be different from the original Guiman.

However, Gu Ming will not participate in more productions. He will only provide a few episodes of the script at most.

Gui Man itself is a relatively outstanding work, so there is no need for Gu Ming to interfere. Maybe his involvement would ruin the work.

After settling in, everyone was happy.

Just wait until this fall when everything starts to be screened.

……

……

Taking advantage of the fact that Kurosawa Akira didn't need to join the group yet, Gu Ming ran to the library open to the public at the University of Tokyo, ready to find a place to read some books, with the main focus on learning about the life of Takeda Shingen.

No matter how famous Takeda Shingen was, he was just a Japanese daimyo. Not to mention a foreigner like Gu Ming, even few native Japanese knew Takeda Shingen.

If I want to act, I certainly have to understand him.

Although Gu Ming doesn't think he can beat Shintaro, the big star of swordplay films.

"Takeda Shingen, Takeda Shingen... Oh, why are there so many books!"

Gu Ming felt dizzy when he saw it.

After reluctantly taking out a few books, Gu Ming sat down and slowly identified them.

This seems to be an academic document that discusses the customs of Takeda Shingen during his lifetime and the excavation of the Tsutsujizaki-kan ruins.

The other book is not about Takeda Shingen, but about Sanada Masayuki, a "local person" under Takeda Shingen's command.

Gu Ming read for a long time and only understood one line of words: This hangman Sanada Masayuki is the father of the famous "Sanada Yukimura".

Yukimura Sanada was a well-known tragic military commander in Japan. He led a group of ronin and regular troops to fight against the Tokugawa shogunate in the Winter Campaign of Osaka and the Summer Campaign of Osaka. It was said that during his lifetime, he led his troops to launch a desperate assault on Tokugawa Ieyasu. When they were closest, they were only an arrow's distance away and could stab Tokugawa Ieyasu with a raise of his hand.

In various Japanese games such as the Orochi Warriors series, Yukimura Sanada and Zhao Yun have the same status.

"Oh my god! It's all in Japanese, how can anyone understand it? Why can't you Japanese write in Chinese?"

After reading a few pages, Gu Ming felt like banging his head against the wall.

It's too complicated, especially the academic terms. Not to mention the Japanese that Gu Ming taught himself, even many Japanese people themselves may not be able to understand it.

"Gugu-kun, are you studying some ancient text?"

"I guess so...why is it you again!"

Gu Ming looked up and was deeply shocked. Why is Matsuzaka Keiko here again?
In an instant, someone looked up this way.

"Shhh!!"

Gu Ming quickly made an apologetic gesture to those around him.

Please be quiet in the library!
Keiko Matsuzaka sat opposite with her chin in her hand, watching Gu Ming reading with interest.

But in fact, Gu Ming couldn't bear to watch it at all.

I couldn't understand it in the first place, and now someone is staring at me. It's really annoyed.

A piece of tissue paper was suddenly thrown in front of him, with a line of small words written on it in lipstick.

"I heard that Furuya-kun went to work as an assistant to Mr. Kurosawa Akira."

Gu Ming raised his head and Matsuzaka Keiko made a gesture of turning over.

Gu Ming turned it over and took a look.

There's also a lip print.

"Tsk..."

Gu Ming looked around and saw a otaku wearing glasses who looked easy to bully, so he borrowed his pen.

The otaku looked up and compared the size difference between the two men, and was instantly furious but unable to speak.

Before he could speak, Gu Ming threw him a hundred yen.

Otaku: Okay then!

One hundred yen isn't much, but it can buy several pens.

Gu Ming picked up his pen and wrote a line of words, then rolled it up and threw it to Keiko Matsuzaka opposite him.

Keiko Matsuzaka opened it and saw a few particularly hard words on it.

"Sorry, I'm not interested in you."

"Oh, that's really sad."

Keiko Matsuzaka wrote a line of words with lipstick, raised her hand again, and threw it to Gu Ming.

This time, Gu Ming didn't even look at it. He just rolled it up and threw it into the trash can.

Again.

Apart from acting, he had no special thoughts about Keiko Matsuzaka.

No matter how hard she tried, it was useless. Gu Ming only wanted to act now and fight for a role in Kurosawa Akira's "Shadow Samurai".

"How heartless."

Keiko Matsuzaka sighed slightly.

But where can she find such a suitable person?
He has a strong and resolute appearance, a good figure, and is self-disciplined. The most amazing thing is that he has his own agency and has collaborated with so many big companies and celebrities.

Keiko Matsuzaka suddenly raised her hand and wrote another line of words. This time she didn't throw it over, but gestured in front of Gu Ming.

Gu Ming didn't want to look, but she moved around, so Gu Ming finally looked up and took a look.

Just one glance and Gu Ming almost wanted to break the table with his fist.

“We can only enter the body, not the life… Damn it!”

Gu Mingteng stood up.

The action was so intense that many people looked over.

Gu Ming hurriedly sat down again and made a few apologetic gestures to the people around him.

It was just obvious that those people started talking, probably because they recognized them.

Gu Mingdun felt a little regretful.

Should have brought a mask.

Keiko Matsuzaka crumpled up the tissue, threw it away, and wrote another line.

"Actually, I'm C..."

A suppressed but surprised voice instantly interrupted the vague atmosphere. Keiko Matsuzaka instantly crumpled up the note and looked at the little girl who made the surprised sound.

"Wow, it's really you!" The little girl looked at Gu Ming and the other person.

"Are Utsumi Toshio and Raiu Rui really dating in real life?"

Keiko Matsuzaka said: "If I were to say yes..."

"Of course not." Gu Ming interrupted immediately: "Sorry, I'm just here to look up some information. Please don't disturb others who are reading."

Seeing that more people were looking over here, Gu Ming stood up and saluted.

"Sorry, I have to go first."
