335 On Track and A2 Performance
As mentioned earlier, in the Japanese entertainment industry, idols are actually a group of people with very low status, and only photo stars have lower status than them. As for the so-called reader models, sports stars, etc., they are either semi-professional or cross-border, so they cannot be measured simply by the order of the entertainment industry.
For anyone with social experience, everyone knows that moving upward is often very difficult, but it is very easy to fall. Therefore, although a large number of young men and girls enter the idol training circle every year, a large number of failed ex-animals have to be exiled by the entertainment industry. If the dream of star is extinguished, you may also study in a short-term university or communications department, and then find a job and spend your life in a simple manner.
But if you are unwilling to give up or are unwilling to return to an ordinary and poor life, you can only change your route to a photo star or even an adult star. It would be fine if you just choose to become a photo star. The Japanese photo album market is still very prosperous. If you are really talented or really hardworking, you still have the opportunity to struggle from this circle. You are afraid that you are not talented and willing to fall into depravity. Then from the first photo book, everyone knows that her route must be a water-filled photo model and eventually becomes an adult actress.
As for boys, photo stars certainly don’t have their market. After all, the Japanese photo album market is basically aimed at men. Women can usually see various male models by buying fashion magazines or women’s magazines. On the contrary, the adult star market is a vast blue ocean for boys. Whether it is traditional male and female action movies or male action movies, there are still many opportunities for boys to choose from.
Don’t think this is an insult to boys. Even Yusuke, a top student at the Japan Chuo University and chairman of the All-Japanese University Volleyball Association, can shoot male-men’s action movies part-time during college. Why can’t other boys choose? Besides, Yusuke, after he got ashore, he can still join Kukami Pharmaceutical and become the best new employee of the company. This proves one thing, as long as you really have the ability, even if you have made male-men’s action movies, what if you have any professional skills?
Of course, the above is purely nonsense. After all, after the filming history of the new name Yusuke was found by powerful Japanese netizens, he died of social life. Therefore, the same thing is true: careers may not be high or low, but the consequences brought to you by some professions may not be something you can bear.
Because idols have such a low status, the unspoken rule in the entertainment industry is to come first and foremost for idols. Even the company where the idols are located will touch the idols, so there are indeed people in the Vernalossom club that look down on AKB48 and even have people who have bad intentions towards them.
Lin Junxiu's words were a wake-up call for these little girls. AKB48 is indeed a group of girl idols, but they are not ordinary girl idols. Although Lin Junxiu also thinks that idols do not have any business ability, but not strong business ability does not mean that they should be humiliated or even insulted. At least, Lin Junxiu feels that they should be respected by ordinary employees.
After Lin Junxiu's lecture, Team K1 performance finally improved a lot. Not only did the members improve their performance greatly, but more importantly, their attitude changes. Fans are very sensitive to the transformation of their idols. Seeing that their favorite idols finally respect their efforts and show their due attitude, a few days ago, fans who felt that their idols were like Adou who could not help them immediately felt that they could go to the red and white stage tomorrow and then go to the martial arts hall and the Tokyo Dome to give them a sense of presence.
After the K1 performance began to get on track, the A2 performance reached the point where it could meet people. Compared with the A1 performance, the A2 performance began to emphasize the personality of Team A members. In addition to the combination song, Unit and Solo songs also began to appear. Without seeing the A2 performance that was so thoughtful, Lin Junsoo felt like shedding tears. The hardworking teacher Akimoto Yasu is the cutest!
In the current AKB48 performance stage, a performance will be performed for about one quarter, which is about 100 shows. So fans can see at least four to five performances in each group a year, which is a very happy thing. When AKB48 becomes popular and the Red and White Songs officially debuts, it will be a hell of a performance stage of AKB48 without more than 200 performances!
Team A can also get into many original performance stages. Later, the sister groups basically picked up the sisters' performance stages and rehearsed. Sister groups such as SKE48 and NMB48, which were established earlier, also had several original performance stages; but when it comes to HKT48 and the sister groups thereafter, they have no original performance stages of their own so far.
However, by their time, theater performances were no longer the basis for 48 Group to survive. Lin Junxiu was thinking that she helped AKB48 to take the route of mainstream girl groups earlier than the original plane. Does that mean there will be fewer stages of performance?
Lin Junxiu thought about it and felt it was still impossible. After all, for the newly established sister group, the performance stage is still a very important publicity method. And for members below the selection group, the performance stage is still the foundation for survival.
With the end of spring break, Lin Junsoo's university ushered in its final year, and Team A2 performance also began with the cherry blossoms. However, a little different from Lin Junsoo's expectations, Akimoto Yasushima still persuaded the entire company to agree to fine-tune the members of Team A and Team K. In the whole adjustment, the biggest change is naturally that Manshima Hiroshima Hiroshima was transferred to Team A; while the other people who entered Team A with Manshima Hiroshima Hiroshima did not attract much attention.
Among the members who moved from Team A to Team K, Shin-nan is naturally the most popular. In the eyes of some fans, Team A is the ace group, and Team K is naturally the substitute renter. Although Shin-nan is not the strongest in Team A, it is definitely a medium-sized one. Therefore, fans are puzzled by her being transferred to Team K, and Shin-nan himself has been struggling with this issue for a long time.
Because the two groups were fine-tuned before the performance, Akimoto Yasu lost another big move. The A2 performance ter was actually replaced by Akimoto Maeda to Hiroshima. This modification made Lin Junsoo fall into glasses. You should know that Akimoto was always AKB48's "unmoving C" before graduation, and the person who established this position was Akimoto Yasu.
Lin Junshui has tried his best to weaken the influence of Atsuko Maeda in this plane, but he still did not move Atsuko Maeda's performance status. After all, Atsuko Maeda is still very lethal to otaku. Not to mention that AKB48, which does not have the signature AKB48 on Atsuko Maeda, will immediately flop, but at least it will reduce its combat effectiveness by half.
And Lin Junxiu was a little afraid of being a mouse, Akimoto Katsu actually did it so carelessly! Although Lin Junxiu didn’t know why Akimoto Katsu did this, since Akimoto Katsu was also willing to change, then Lin Junxiu let it go.
After a little dealing with the matters related to AKB48, Lin Junsoo returned to the preparations for his new movie "To Dear You". Lin Junsoo's production speed is actually quite slow as the director. Many Japanese directors can achieve the production speed of three to four movies a year during their peak period. If we include the SP they shoot for TV series, it is OK to have more than five or six movies.
The movie "To Dear You" is different from the movies directed by Lin Junsoo before, because the movies directed by Lin Junsoo were either filmed in most studios, or films with few scenes. However, "To Dear You" is a road movie, so there are many scenes involved. Although many directors and photographers love shooting natural light, if they really shoot in natural light environments, it would be a disaster.
Strictly speaking, the lights at sunrise and sunset are suitable for shooting every day, so how to design the lighting and camera position on site is a very troublesome thing. The most devastating thing is that when you are ready for all your work in the early stage, you will suddenly see severe weather such as storms and rainstorms on the day of the shooting, so everything has to be cancelled.
Fortunately, the actors in the crew cooperated very well. After all, there are national treasure-level actors like Ken Takakura and Takeshi Kitano, and there are also many gold medals and green leaves to support them, so a few newcomers can't bring any trouble. Moreover, these newcomers have long been warned by the agency behind them. If there is any news that is unfavorable to them in such a crew, then they can really hold an apology press conference to announce their withdrawal.
"Lin Jun, I think this scene in the script can be modified." Takeshi Kitano took the script and came to Lin Junxiu.
Takeshi Kitano himself is a director, and his relationship with the Japanese Jidao organization is a bit ambiguous, so Takeshi Kitano's title of "Tyrant on the Set" is not false. Any actor with a director status has many of his own opinions in works directed by others, such as Mr. Jiang Wen from China.
When Jiang Wen was an actor, he would often be so strong that he would directly outspoken the director and let the whole movie be directed according to his as an actor's idea. So if you want to find Jiang Wen to film, you should either just let him get his identity as a director and actor, or you should find a director who is stronger than him. Although in the Japanese entertainment industry, it is a taboo for actors to find directors to modify scripts, Kitano Takeshi is high in terms of seniority and identity.
"Does Kitano Sang have any advice?" Lin Junsoo was not that strong. If the actor was willing to discuss the script with him, he would still be willing to participate.
After all, actors are the people who perform scripts, and they must have different visions from the director and screenwriter when they play, so it is okay to refer to their opinions. Lin Junxiu said while taking over the script handed over by Takeshi Kitano. Although Takeshi Kitano's current acting skills do not need to be marked on the script at all. However, Takeshi Kitano's script still paints many places, and even many blank spaces are full of words.
Lin Junxiu took a rough look and found that it was basically a setting made by Takeshi Kitano. You should know that when making a movie, the director and screenwriter often intercepted a clip of life. If an actor wants to interpret this clip in line with reality, he needs the actor to add the settings himself. The more full the setting, the more realistic the role will be interpreted. In the Chinese film circle, older generation actors start with tens of thousands of words in writing role biography, and they can be simply released as a short and medium-sized novel.
Takeshi Kitano waited after Lin Junshu read the content he added, and continued to speak: "How is it? Lin Jun, do you think this modification is more reasonable? I think the character that the script originally gave me is too thin and cannot support the role that the movie has given to this character. After all, the subsequent emotional changes of Takakura Sang basically came from the role of self-performing, but the current script is too abrupt."
"Indeed, after Kitano San's modification, it was much more reasonable." Lin Junxiu nodded, "But did Kitano San find a problem? If I shoot according to your modification, your role will be too prominent. You not only overwhelmed other supporting roles, but also overwhelmed the starring Takakura Sang. The reason why I 'converge' your role is that I hope to achieve the role balance of the entire movie."
"Then this is meaningless. I think I'm too frustrated." Takeshi Kitano protested a little dissatisfied.
"Kano Sang, we are shooting movies rather than TV, so many details will inevitably be brought over. Although your play is a key play, it is still secondary to the protagonist's play. And if the movie is not blank, can the whole movie bring any thoughts to the audience?" Lin Junxiu asked back.
