"This is really a good book!" A middle-aged man exclaimed.

He is the assistant director of Lin Junxiu's crew, and is mainly responsible for the selection of actors and the arrangement of filming schedule. As a member of Lin Junxiu's crew, he is often overshadowed by Lin Junxiu's glory, but everyone does not feel that aggrieved. After all, he is with Lin Junxiu.

After working with Lin Junxiu for a long time, he knew that Lin Junxiu already had the picture before shooting, so Lin Junxiu's shooting was to present the picture in his mind. At first, Lin Junxiu didn't know much about the professional terminology of the crew, so he needed help from his assistant.

.Now that Lin Junxiu is a mature man, the work intensity of his assistants is getting lower and lower.

In fact, it is not that these assistants have never had their thoughts, but after a few people changed jobs, they found that they could not display the same abilities in the crew as they did in Lin Junxiu's crew. After going back and forth, other companies had no intention of poaching Lin Junxiu.

The remaining assistants also gave up after recognizing the reality and feeling Lin Junxiu's ability to make money. Anyway, following Lin Junxiu would make them rich and famous, and their work and life would be stable and comfortable.

Now that that's the case, why bother? Although you are not as powerful as you thought, your ability as a member of the film crew is still there, otherwise Lin Junxiu would not hire you for no reason.

"But this script is too selective about the leading actor and supporting actor. Even the best actors can't take on the role."

After the death of the masters of Japanese films, Akira Kurosawa, subsequent Japanese film directors seemed to have failed to inherit the advantages of their predecessors in group dramas. As a result, the pattern of Japanese films became smaller and smaller, and in the end they were almost family dramas or

It’s an emotional drama. And because Japanese movies focus more and more on a certain actor, this has also led to the emergence of the so-called "ranking system" in the Japanese entertainment industry. After all, Japanese film and television crews all work for Ichiban, so Ichiban is natural

I have to be responsible for the box office and reputation of my work.

The character of "Encoffiant" is naturally the character of Kobayashi Daigo. The entire movie revolves around Kobayashi Daigo's growth in the profession of "Encoffiant" as the main storyline, supplemented by Kobayashi's childhood family line and current emotional line.

.So for this movie, the actor who plays Daigo Kobayashi is a very important choice.

In the original dimension, Daigo Kobayashi was played by Masahiro Motoki, who was the son-in-law of Shirin Kuki and was also a member of Johnny & Associates' Shibu Persimmon Team. The Shibu Persimmon Team did not last long and was established.

It was disbanded about 5 years later. In the year after the disbandment, Masahiro Motoki won the Japan Academy Award for Best Newcomer. It can be said that he still has some talent as an actor. Masahiro Motoki's works are not many, but most of them are

Excellent product. In 1999, Masahiro Motoki won the Japan Academy Award for Best Actor for "Twins". It can be said that Masahiro Motoki is still capable, but Junxiu Lin hopes to change his actor.

In Lin Junxiu's mind, Hiroshi Abe, Joe Odagiri and Ken Watanabe are all on the candidate list. The advantage of Hiroshi Abe is that he is very close to the people. If he really wants to play the role of an embalmer, he will be easily convinced. After all, the family members of the deceased are still

I hope that the deceased will be treated with tenderness at the last moment, and Abe Hiroshi's honest and honest image is in line with ordinary people's expectations for the image of an embalmer. But Abe Hiroshi's problem is that he is too tall. Actors who are too tall are actually a big problem, which means

It is difficult to find actors to play with him. Although there are many ways to modify it, this means that the possibility of dressing up during filming will increase.

The compatibility of Joe Odagiri lies in his temperament. The atmosphere of the whole movie "The Embalmer" is sad but not sad, so Odagiri Joe's slightly sad image is naturally suitable. However, Odagiri Joe's image is a bit too decadent, which makes

The scene at the end of the movie where Kobayashi Dago reconciles with his father was not easy to film.

As for Ken Watanabe, his advantage lies in his international nature, which is conducive to the promotion of the film in Europe and the United States; but Ken Watanabe is the one with the least temperament among the four candidates.

"Let someone contact these four actors first to see who is interested in taking on this movie." Lin Junxiu ordered.

Although he chose these four actors, it does not mean that these four actors also chose him. Movies and actors are inherently two-way choices, and no one has to be chosen. Even though Lin Junxiu is now a young Japanese film master,

This name is also attractive to second- and third-tier actors. A real first-tier actor does not have to be Lin Junxiu. As for Watanabe Ken, a super first-tier actor who has a name in the world, it doesn't matter. Anyway, it doesn't matter.

Why do you have to stay in the Japanese film industry to make movies by international directors? So Junsu Lin can only try his luck with scripts and see who is willing to consider the next one.

"There is another problem, that is, the details of the funeral must be clarified." Lin Junxiu ordered.

Japanese movies or Japanese culture attach great importance to the sense of ritual. Relying on this mysterious sense of ritual, Japanese culture not only makes Europe and the United States feel full of mystery and admire Japanese culture, but also makes other countries in East Asia feel that Japan has a "craftsman spirit".

In Lin Junxiu's view, this sense of ritual is actually a cult propaganda idea, which only creates spiritual worship in people.

For example, a certain craftsman who is regarded as the god of sushi in the neighboring country has his sushi restaurant directly removed from the Michelin food guide. The reason is very simple. When you open a sushi restaurant, you want your customers to eat and drink well. Even this is the simplest.

What's the point of being called a Michelin restaurant if you can't meet the entry requirements? Wait until the sushi you sell is a work of art rather than food, and then go out and blame the customers.

"I thought you wouldn't care about AKB48's affairs because you are busy filming movies recently." Yasushi Akimoto said in surprise when he saw Lin Junxiu in his office. He had seen Lin Junxiu filming a movie.

He was so focused at that time, let alone AKB48, that even the affairs of the Internet company could not disturb him. And now I heard that Lin Junxiu's new movie had just entered the preparation stage, and it turned out that Lin Junxiu appeared at the headquarters of Vernalossom, or in his own office

.

"Because the filming of this movie takes a long time, I may not be able to take care of it for a while, so I think it is better to get some things done in advance." Lin Junxiu said. "Now AKB48 only has a late-night variety show on TV Tokyo

I don’t think the program is enough. TV Tokyo’s network only has six TV stations. Although it covers the most important urban areas in Japan, it is not enough to increase the national popularity of AKB48.”

What is "nationality"? Look at SMAP and Arashi, no matter how remote places in Japan they go to perform programs, uncles and aunties will come out to shake hands. This is called "nationality". Just opening up in Japan's metropolitan area is a kind of victory.

, but it is not yet the final victory.

"So we must have a title program on the four major private broadcasters. Even if it is not a regular program, we must ensure that this program can be on prime time."

Japanese programs are generally divided into regular programs, special programs and SP programs. Although special programs and SP programs have the same pronunciation in Japanese, they are written differently, so the meanings are also different. SP programs generally originate from a certain

Regular programs or regular projects, and SP programs are usually done irregularly but with a certain degree of continuity. Special programs are usually so-called "one-shot programs", that is, one issue is produced for each project. They may be done again in the future.

This special program will be planned again.

The bottom line for Lin Junxiu is to make SP programs. They may not be broadcast every week, but they must ensure that they are broadcast during prime time. Since the production cycle of SP programs is relatively long and there is no time limit, it can be slow for the sake of the guest schedule.

Slow Mo, the guest lineup of all SP programs is often very luxurious, so it is appropriate to be scheduled to be broadcast in prime time.

"You want to win the prime time spot of the four major private broadcasters? This is too difficult for the current AKB48. Even TBS TV station, which has the best relationship with you, will reject you politely." After hearing Lin Junxiu's idea, Akimoto Yasushi immediately

Shaking his head. "AKB48's fans are too small and too concentrated. Such ratings are not ideal for the TV station."

The ratings of TV stations are a very complex statistical method. Many young people do not understand why so many young people like to watch a certain TV series or TV program, but the ratings are still very poor? The reason is very simple. Ratings statistics

The most important thing is the household ratings, which is the so-called generational ratings in Japan. The ratings of single men and women are not counted. Did you hear that? Even the ratings statistics are discriminatory against singles!

Generally speaking, only a family of three meets the survey sample standards of a statistical company; and three generations living under one roof is even more important, and the weight will be higher. However, in a family of three or three generations living under one roof, who is the viewer?

What's the key? Therefore, TV stations know very well that only programs that mothers-in-law like are the key. So don't doubt why "Mother's Way" is popular. Those of you who type on keyboards are not included in the statistical scope of the ratings survey company. You are scolding the world.

It will not affect the crew. And these fans of AKB48 are also viewers who will not be included in the statistical sample by Japan Video Research Company.

"Why do you think AKB48 can't do shows that mothers-in-law like?" Lin Junxiu asked.

Lin Junxiu came up with a project, which was derived from a segment of the American daytime talk show "The Oprah Show". As we all know, Oprah's favorite thing is to invite an ordinary American family to the show.

Tell their tragic stories, and then give them a big check or other gifts in tears, and finally gain ratings amidst applause. This kind of gimmick of helping needy households is also very popular in Asia, even if there are no future generations.

Why don't UP owners who are less famous than Douyin and Kuaishou also go to poor areas to give out red envelopes in order to gain fame? As a result, this behavior has become a standard routine of domestic public relations whitewashing. Which idol has recently been suppressed by black materials and can't stand up and just do charity, and then

Use this to clear your name and turn around again to compete in the entertainment industry.

Of course, Lin Junxiu will not do it so nakedly, but will do this show through the so-called wish-making method. Moreover, the members of AKB48 cannot get the gifts for the wish-makers for free. The members of AKB48 must complete it through their own efforts.

The mission is to finally give the gift to the person who made the wish. The nature of this program is to target Japanese mothers-in-law. After all, this kind of program that helps poor ordinary people has a great impact on mothers-in-law. And Lin Junxiu is not too much.

Rather than allowing AKB48 members to use their money abilities, AKB48 can redeem items through their own efforts, so that the program can receive positive publicity.
