Tokyo bubble life

After returning to the studio, everyone started the intense shooting work again.

The third short story is called "Rejuvenation".

It is about an old man in his 70s who, when visiting a shrine of a cicada god, swallowed the tribute to the god because he was too hungry, and then shed a layer of skin every day, making him ten years younger.

At the beginning, I thought it was a miracle. A few days ago, the younger and younger old people began to eat, drink, enjoy life, spend money lavishly, and even went to a custom shop. The old man is completely different.

Within a few days, he had a falling out with the family he was in love with, and ran away from home in a fit of anger, and stayed in a hotel.

But after a long time without seeing anyone, the family couldn't let go of their loved ones, and found a hotel where the old man lived temporarily after a week.

But when I opened the door, I found that there was no one in the room, the bed was covered with dander, and I also found a lump of meat that looked like a baby embryo

This little story is also very interesting. I thought it was a gift of rejuvenation, but I didn't expect it to become a curse in the end.

When filming this story, the main special effects makeup required a lot of work. The skin, gray hair, wrinkles, and even the rubber skin used for shedding all required a little bit of work by the makeup artist.

Except for the initial visit to the shrine, everything else can be done in the studio.

Taking advantage of the rain the next day, Naoki Naoyama and Kanako Higuchi finished filming the rest of the ending.

There are 3 stories in the whole short play album, even if they have all been filmed here.

Even with the addition of subsequent editing, opening special effects, etc., the overall time is not more than a week.

This speed is very fast, right?

In fact, in Hong Kong in the 1990s, the shooting time of a fast-paced movie was only one week.

It only took a month for a funny New Year's Eve film like "East and West", and the crew members were still filming "Evil in the West" at the same time.

From here, you can see how fast the shooting pace was at that time.

Otomo Fangcun has already contacted Fuji TV, and plans to broadcast this program at 11 o'clock in the evening, with 3 short stories, one a week, almost a month.

"Naoki-san, the next thing is to see if the audience buys it!"

Yi Tangxiu was very relaxed when he arrived: "After watching the 30-minute short program, it was almost 11:30, and I just went to bed."

"I'm not worried about the effect of the skit, but I'm afraid that not many people will see it.

Otomo-san, if the effect is good, try to see if it can be mentioned in other programs. "Naoki Yongshan knows that there are such "friendly sponsorships" in many programs.

As long as keywords like "beauty pot" pop up a few more times, it will always attract the attention of the audience.

In Tokyo in the 1980s, the title of the city that never sleeps had not been widely spread.

But urban cores such as Shinjuku and Roppongi have indeed begun to light up all night.

At 11 o'clock, the nightlife of young people has just begun.

There are also quite a few migrant workers who have just returned home, drinking beer and turning on the TV for a little leisure time.

Ryuichi Miyazaki is one of this group.

Originally, after going home to take a shower, turn on the TV and serve it with beer. This time is the most pleasant time after a tiring day.

Relax and watch late-night chat shows or funny variety shows, and then go to bed after killing time. The daily life of a single dog is as simple as that.

But this evening, I saw a program called "Wonderful Stories of the World". The uncle wearing glasses seemed to introduce a very interesting thing - "beauty jar". When you open it, there will be a beautiful woman to accompany you?

The plot is not complicated, and the "beauty pot" is also very interesting. In the end, the handsome male protagonist finds out that he was also made. This reversal is surprising.

"Sure enough, such a handsome little brother, how could he be an ordinary person~"

"The beauties produced by the beauty tank are really perfect~ Is that Kananko Higuchi?"

Higuchi Kananko is exactly the ideal type of Ryuichi Miyazaki.

"In addition to products such as beauty jars, there must be handsome guy jars."

After just half an hour, the episode ended, but Ryuichi Miyazaki hadn't stopped thinking.

The apartment is square at first glance, with some sundries randomly placed, the bed is for one person, and the water glass is for one person. The atmosphere that used to feel free and easy made Ryuichi Miyazaki feel lonely for a long time.

He was lying on the tatami with his eyes open but he couldn't fall asleep.

"How can it be repaired? Where can I buy a product like the beauty pot?"

early the next morning,

Naoki Yongshan, who was sleeping drowsily, was awakened by a call from Otomo Fangcun.

"Moses Moses~"

"Naoki-san, great success!" An excited voice came from the other side of the receiver.

"What success?" Naoki Naoyama was still awake.

""Wonderful Stories of the World"!" Fangcun Otomo's voice was very excited, "The ratings are 17% according to the statistics. After the broadcast, many viewers called Fuji TV to ask where the product "Beauty Can" is. buy it!"

"Is that so? That's great!" Naoki Naoyama came to his senses. Considering the current ratings of 10-15% for late-night shows, this rating is already a burst.

"Dayou-san, it's up to you next!"

"Hey, just look at mine!"

According to the previous plan, except that the first 3 episodes of this month were resources exchanged by the previous BURNING agency, whether the subsequent episodes can continue to be purchased by TV stations depends on the number of broadcasts and interactive effects.

Generally speaking, the purchase of a TV series is based on the number of episodes. However, "Wonderful Stories of the World" does not have a final number of episodes, so it may be necessary to agree on the length of the shooting. About 9 episodes can be shot in a quarter, summer and winter There are 18 episodes in total.

The copyright of "Wonderful Stories of the World" is not under the name of GG Firm, and a new leather bag company, Shuyou Yinghua, is mainly responsible for the copyright of TV and movies.

The results of the first episode have already come out, and it is basically not a problem to talk about the follow-up purchase contract, only the price.

Fangcun Dayu's communication skills are still good, after all, he has been practicing for more than ten years.

A few days later,

After several drinks with the TV station's procurement staff and the minister,

Finally, the rights to broadcast on TV were sold.

Just broadcasting rights, 20 million yen per episode, 60 million yen a month, 9 episodes a season, 180 million yen.

But it's on a monthly basis.

If this month's 3 episodes don't do well overall, then next month won't.

This contract is actually very strict. It can be seen that the TV station reluctantly signed it because of the resources it had replaced before.

However, Naoki Yongshan and the others had confidence in their work, so they accepted it.

We all know that filming TV dramas makes money, but I didn't expect to make so much money!

It only cost 20 million yen, and the profit reached 8 times!

All three were amazed at this rate of return.

Now that the contract has been signed, the subsequent shooting will also be on the right track.

"Xiu Yisang, the door to enter the TV drama industry has been opened, and the next step is your struggle!"

Searching for creative scripts, looking for stars, and shooting quickly. These are all things that require Shuichi Ido to be busy.

Naoki Naoyama, as the producer, is not only responsible for the final check, but also responsible for the creation of some scripts. After all, there are still many surprising stories in his mind.

"Hey, with the director's reputation on the line, I must also film the remaining 15 episodes!"

As a director, adding your own name behind each play will be your resume and medals in the future.
