183 Dark Teens and Summer Pools

As the second film produced by Lin Jinxiu, "Five Young Boys" has been very well arranged in Japanese theaters. This is naturally due to the confidence of Lin Jinxiu's directorial debut "Call for Love in the Center of the World" to be a hit.

In addition, the crew has also done a good job in marketing through the Internet. Although many people used to think that the online world and the real world are two completely independent worlds, this time the online marketing of "Five Flooding Boys" has made the Japanese advertising industry

I have seen the impact of the Internet on real life.

Although there is also the influence secretly exerted by the production committee behind Lin Junxiu, after all, everyone still admits that "Five Water-Flying Boys" is so popular on the Internet that it is only a matter of time before traditional media pays attention to it. At this time in Japan

The main netizens come from two groups, one is university students, after all, most universities in Japan still provide free campus network access to the Internet; the other is employees of relatively new companies, and the average age of employees in these companies is relatively young. So

This adolescent comedy about high school boys quickly became a firm favorite among these people.

Thanks to these people's tireless discussions, "Five Water-Flying Boys" has become a hot topic in the 5ch and Yahoo communities. In addition, the official blogs of the crew and actors have also increased their followers. With the help of caring people,

This Internet craze naturally attracted the attention of TV stations and newspapers, and the topic naturally spread. When most Japanese people know about this movie, the film's public release will be a matter of course.

Although comedy is recognized by filmmakers as one of the genres with the lowest threshold, it is not that easy to make a good comedy. Especially campus comedy, which is an even more difficult subject to handle. Campus comedy

Because it is full of young people's hormones, "sex" is bound to be involved. But at the same time, the background setting of the campus prevents the director and screenwriter from putting too much effort into the keyword "sex", because once it exceeds the limit, the campus will

Comedy will lose its mainstream audience.

At the beginning of the film, the movie released a funny point. Tsumabuki Satoshi thought he had won the first place in the swimming competition, but found that he was the last. Through this embarrassing performance, the audience soon knew that Tsumabuki Satoshi

I am afraid that the swimming club I am in is just a show-off. Sure enough, the following clips of the swimming club tell everyone that this is a sports club that is almost unable to survive in the school. And the school is planning to abolish the club.

At that time, a new and beautiful female teacher volunteered to be the consultant teacher of the swimming department.

All boys who have attended high school know that which class has a more beautiful teacher, then the enthusiasm for that class is the highest. Boys at this time are very direct in their appreciation of beauty, and similarly, their expression of love

It was also very direct. When the female teacher announced that she was recruiting new members of the swimming club, the boys naturally went crazy. Being able to receive guidance from a beautiful teacher by the pool, is there anything better than this in adolescence? So, the whole school

All the boys came to sign up. Everyone rushed into the registration classroom crazily, hoping to be selected by the female teacher.

However, when the female teacher explained that she was a water ballet coach and hoped to open a water ballet project in the swimming club, most of the boys ran away. At this time, most of the boys were actually shy. Although they liked girls, they still

I feel that the dividing line between boys and girls is very big. Just like later, boys who can’t dress as women are doomed to live alone. After other boys fled like a typhoon leaving the country, Satoshi Tsumabuki was the only one left.

, Tamaki Hiroshi and other five idiots were obsessed with the female teacher. So they were "selected" as new members of the swimming club and learned water ballet from the teacher.

If the story then develops into five male students learning water ballet under the inspiration of a female teacher and achieving great success, it would not be an excellent campus comedy. So the story reverses after the five people join the swimming club.

I don’t really like water ballet, so I just muddle along. But if the story continues like this, then the subsequent plot will not be able to advance, so Lin Junxiu added a breaking point here.

While the five geese were muddling along in the swimming club, they actually got into a big trouble. Due to their negligence, the school's swimming pool was damaged, and the school also paid a high cleaning fee. In Japan, although students have

They have the right to use school public facilities for free, but at the same time they are also obliged to keep the public facilities in good condition. Therefore, the five teenagers had to face a difficult situation. Either ask their parents to pay the fee, or everyone would be beaten.

; Or if they are expelled from school for refusing to pay, then everyone will still be beaten by their parents.

At this time, the female teacher found the five teenagers and told them a piece of news that they already knew but were rejected by them. That is, the female teacher signed up the teenagers' water ballet project for the school's cultural festival. And the student union

I also thought that the boys wearing only small swimming trunks and dancing in the water would attract the surrounding aunties to come and watch and expand the school’s reputation, so the project was approved without any hindrance. But they didn’t know it at the time.

At that time, it was naturally repulsive. It was already very shameful to learn water ballet, but in the end, I had to perform it in front of everyone. Wouldn't it be even more shameful?

But now the female teacher tells them that if they don’t want to be expelled and don’t want to raise money through their parents, they can only go to the cultural festival to perform. Because in Japan, many contents at the cultural festival can be charged, but these fees

Compared with the market price, it seems very cheap. In addition to the juice and food produced by the students, you can also charge for the dramas, songs and dances performed by the students. The premise is that your program can attract people to pay.

Otherwise, if the fee threshold is high, your performance will be ignored and it will be embarrassing. Although the solution given by the female teacher is not so reliable, it is undoubtedly the "last straw" for the teenagers, so the teenagers have participated in special programs during the summer vacation.

Training, in order to attract viewers to pay for their programs.

In addition to setting up the bright line of why boys perform water ballet, "Five Water Ballet" also adds a hidden line, which is the secret love line between Satoshi Tsumabuki and girls. Although everyone knows that the female teacher is the lover of the boys in the school

"Goddess", but Lin Junxiu and Yaguchi Shiyasu still don't have the guts to really make a movie about "teacher-student love". As a Japanese society deeply influenced by Confucian culture, although this kind of forbidden subject is exciting, it has broad scope in underground works.

market. But in the mainstream market, if you really want to film, you have to follow the example of "The Witch's Condition" and constantly abuse the male and female protagonists. But "abusing the protagonist" is obviously not a popular element of campus comedies, so naturally it can only be arranged

Teenagers talk about their purely ambiguous crush with girls of the same age.

The climax of the whole film is naturally at the end, when some boys in the school join in the water ballet performance under the encouragement of five teenagers. Although their water ballet is not an orthodox water ballet, everyone is just trying to figure it out.

Is it fun? Especially when a group of young boys in tiny swimming trunks are posing in front of you, who cares if it’s water ballet?

The movie almost ended with laughter. Although Lin Junxiu and Yaguchi Shiyasu also added some criticism of contemporary Japanese education, this criticism was more like a mockery, so everyone was made to laugh.

. Some film critics saw the ambitions of Lin Junxiu and Yaguchi Shiyasu, but it was a pity that they did not dig deeper into this aspect.

"Lin Jun, not only did we have a great harvest at the box office, but our peripheral products were also sold very well." Dongbao's manager smiled obsequiously.

If "Call for Love in the Center of the World" is a pure success of the movie, then "Five Young Boys" is a marketing success. Excellent movies are hard to come by, but good marketing cases are

It can be copied. An excellent operation is enough to raise the income of a movie to a higher level. This is a great deal for the movie company.

In addition to doing a lot of online marketing to attract attention, Lin Junxiu actually opened a peripheral sales center this time. This is a bit like a concert. Tickets for Japanese idol concerts are usually not very expensive, and the cost price is basically a little higher.

Diandian. So since you can’t make money from tickets, why do idols still enjoy concerts so much? In addition to gaining fame, concerts can also bring income to idols. Xiaotou’s income comes from the publication of DVDs or BDs after the concerts.

The majority of the income comes from the various peripherals sold on-site. The Japanese are crazy about all kinds of "limited products". The already expensive celebrity peripherals will be rewarded once they are rewarded for such and such products that are limited to such and such venues at such and such concerts.

After the "double limited edition" label, wouldn't the fans in attendance just buy and buy?

Similarly, Lin Junxiu has also produced various peripherals for Satoshi Tsumabuki and others, from common peripherals such as photo albums, posters, and support fans, to peripherals such as beach trunks, swimming trunks, swimming towels, and swimming caps. Lin Junxiu

But I signed a lot of licenses. Especially swimming trunks, beach shorts, T-shirts, etc., and added the local characteristics of various places. After being made into a limited edition, the sales became even crazier. Because this part of the licensing fee is paid by the film company and the actor

I’m split in half. Satoshi Tsumabuki and Hiroshi Tamaki have fully felt the high income brought by fame. According to Lin Junxiu’s estimation, after this box office road show is over, both of them will probably be able to buy a car.

After "Call for Love in the Center of the World", "Five Young Boys" also achieved great commercial success, so everyone turned their attention to the third film "Midnight Flight" produced by Xiu. Although this film was

Although it is labeled as a literary film, everyone is still optimistic about the box office of this movie. In addition to movies, the first TV series produced by Xiu has also begun to be analyzed by the media.

Of course, since each TV station has its own newspaper group behind it, the ones who are optimistic about this TV series are naturally the Mainichi Shimbun and the newspapers under the Chunichi Shimbun behind the TBS TV station. Naturally, most of the newspapers behind the other TV stations are optimistic about this TV series.

The opposite attitude. Fortunately, most TV stations have cooperated with Lin Junxiu and have a good relationship. Therefore, they only remain skeptical and have not completely broken up. Moreover, given that Lin Junxiu still has an authorship, the newspaper's doubts are only put aside.

In the TV series, Lin Junxiu himself is not involved, so it can be regarded as a courtesy to Lin Junxiu.

"Michi Iijima proposed that the firm form an online fan club? And he also planned to terminate our cooperation with Johnny's?" Lin Junxiu's face immediately turned cold when he heard the news.

Because he knew that the office would be an online fan club in the future, he deliberately chose to cooperate with Johnny's to avoid getting involved. But now Iijima actually wants to take away Johnny's piece. Although there is no need for Johnny's right now.

The business can also continue to maintain the popularity of his own blog site, but Johnny's business is a stable source of traffic and income after all, so it would be a pity to give up. Junxiu Lin appreciates the talent of Mijima Iijima, but he doesn't
