Because of his cooperation, Anda Chong and Primary School Pavilion quickly agreed to the request of "Baseball Heroes" to adapt the film and television. Although "Baseball Heroes" is a classic campus baseball comic, it was a work from 20 years ago and its sales have long been low. Therefore, the Primary School Pavilion is eager to take advantage of the momentum of Lin Junxiu and comic-adapted movies to bring sales again. After Lin Junxiu received the authorization, he naturally went to Anda Chong's home to express his gratitude. This is also a requirement of the Japanese social society.

Now Andajong has been successful and famous for a long time, so naturally he does not need to stay in Tokyo to work hard. Instead, he returns to his hometown and asks editors to come to his home regularly to request the original drawings. Andajong's hometown is located in Isezaki City, Gunma Prefecture, bordering the neighboring Saitama Prefecture, and is considered to be on the edge of the Tokyo metropolitan area. Isezaki City belongs to Japan's special city, and is the third level in Japan's urban autonomy. It is also one of the few cities in Japan's population that has been in positive growth since the new century.

Because the population of Isezaki City is increasing, it is relatively vibrant compared with the twilight atmosphere of other Japanese cities. If we have to compare it, Isezaki City reminded Lin Junshui of Hachiozi City, where he lived for a long time in Tokyo. The population of Hachiozi City is also on a growing trend, but this growth is not a natural increase, but because Hachiozi City is one of the few student cities in Japan, many well-known universities and middle schools have set up branch campuses here, so young people here are relatively concentrated.

Although Anda Chong is a male comic, he entered the industry from girl comics. Although he later changed to painting boy comics, the love story he wrote still carries the unique romance and purity of girl comics. For this reason, Anda Chong's comics are very difficult to adapt. Although the campus pure love theme is a popular theme, the scale is very difficult to grasp. Either the heat is not enough, and the audience scolded the production team's stepmothers refused to give up the candy; or the heat is too high, and adapted the film and television drama into a greasy youth pain theme.

"Baseball Heroes" is even more difficult to adapt. After all, this story begins with "two men and one woman", and the two boys are twin brothers. The relationship between Asakura Nan and Uesugi Kazuya is very difficult to deal with, because whether it is dealing with the brother-sister relationship of childhood sweethearts or the vague first love, it will inevitably offend a large number of viewers. After all, the story's follow-up is Kazuya's death, and his brother Tatsuya works hard to realize his dream. So how should Tatsuya and Asakura Nan define the relationship?

If you say that two people are in a relationship, then Tatsuya has undoubtedly betrayed his younger brother; but if you say that two people are just friendship, then Tatsuya has worked hard to carry the dream of "going to Jiaziyuan with you" a bit licking? Therefore, for the screenwriter and director, the relationship and changes of the three people are very difficult to grasp. Therefore, Lin Junxiu decided to have a good chat with Anda Chong about the relationship between these three people. If you make a mistake, you can blame the original author. Plan!

"How does Lin Jun view their relationship?" Anda Chong asked with a smile.

Anda Chong was born in the 1950s and his age belonged to Lin Junxiu's uncles and uncles, so Anda Chong looked at Lin Junxiu as if he was looking at his younger generation.

"Actually, Asakura Nan likes his elder brother Tatsuya from beginning to end, and Kazuya is 'the goddess' unintentional'. However, Kazuya knows Konan's intentions, but he is still striving for it. After all, we are all from that age group, and that boy of that age wants to fight for everything. As for Tatsuya, he also understands Konan's thoughts, but in his heart, his younger brother Kazuya is the most important, so he is escaping.

I didn't mean to criticize my younger brother Kazuya, but one person would definitely give up when he gets along with him to ensure the relationship between the two. Whether it is brotherly relationship or other more important is a matter of choice. Tatsuya chose his younger brother Kazuya, so he deliberately pretended to be indifferent to Konan's gesture, and deliberately gave up any projects that might compete with his younger brother Kazuya. Therefore, after his younger brother passed away, he would naturally take over his younger brother's dream and continue to struggle. Well, if there was such an older brother in reality, then it would be so happy to be a younger brother!"

After listening to Anda Chong's explanation, Lin Junxiu suddenly felt that the brotherhood between Tatsuya and Kazuya seemed to be a little subtle. Sure enough, every painter who paints a girl's comic has a "fujo girl heart" in his heart? No wonder the Japanese fan circle has decided to modify the word "fujo girl" to "booshu". After all, there are many "booshu" or other "booshu". However, with Anda Chong's advice, Lin Junxiu also knew how to modify this comic.

Because the main actor of this live-action movie is Nagasawa Masami, the script must be adapted from the perspective of Asakura Nan, so the type of the whole movie should be a campus pure love movie, and then there are some passionate sports elements. If it is adapted from Asakura Nan's perspective, then there will be no possibility of portraying her as "green tea". After all, it can be revealed from the beginning that Asakura Nan's specialness towards Uesugi Tatsuya, but Tatsuya pretends to be ignorant of this relationship due to his younger brother Kazuya.

The only difficulty now is not to describe Uesugi Kazuya too dark, otherwise the character Kazuya will collapse and the foundation of the existence of the story will collapse. If Kazuya is not a good person, then Tatsuya will have no reason to bear his dream, which means that the end of the whole story is unreliable. Fortunately, the three characters in the story are not old and all their feelings are hazy, so there will be no situation of "love but not getting it". Moreover, Kazuya will die in one third of the plot of the story, so there is no need to over-express Kazuya's feelings for Konan in the early stage. Thinking of this, Lin Junsoo has a lot of confidence in the script of the movie.

"Teacher Lin, the last time you told us to look for a twin male actor has already come to fruition." Just as Lin Junxiu was revising the script, the people from Dongbao Company found Lin Junxiu with a thick stack of information.

Lin Junxiu has never understood that Japan's electrical appliances are very popular, so it is logical that it should have been paperless office long ago. However, Japan still follows the tradition in office, and any information must be printed and bound. If you want to cast domestic film and television, the primary election is basically just a director who just reads emails on the computer, but when you arrive in Japan, the casting director will print and organize the appropriate actor information. In addition, if the actor has any performance experience, it will also come with a DVD edited by the actor's past performance experience. No wonder the artist is so harshly drawn by the agency. It would cost a lot to help the artist organize such audition resumes.

"Then I'll trouble you." Lin Junxiu took the information and started to read it.

Because it is a campus idol movie, he does not have much attention to the actor's acting skills. The only standard is his appearance. Lin Junxiu flipped a few times, and suddenly a piece of information fell in front of him.

"Hey? Have we ever collaborated on this actor? It turns out that he has a twin brother!"

The information Lin Junsoo found was Keita Saito. His resume included "Water Boys 2" collaborating with TBS TV. This is the sequel to the TV version of Lin Junsoo's movie "Five Boys of Water" back then. Although Lin Junsoo was not fully responsible for this TV series, Lin Junsoo was still cast during the casting, so Lin Junsoo recognized Keita Saito, who played Kawasaki Seiichi.

Soon, Lin Junxiu found information about Saito Keita's brother Saito Shota. Compared with his younger brother, his brother Suito has achieved a little higher achievements in the film and television industry. After all, he was also a teenager who debuted in the ace series "Mr. Kim Hachi, 3 Years Group B". There was no big problem with the appearance and acting skills of the two, but their age made Lin Junxiu hesitate. In short, the brothers are only one and a half years younger than him. Is it appropriate for them to star in high school students?

"I inform these brothers to audition." Lin Junxiu decided to make a decision after seeing him.

Lin Junsoo is now also a well-known director in the Japanese film industry, so the Saito brothers who received the audition invitation immediately determined the audition time with Xiu Production. By the time the audition day, Lin Junsoo found that the brothers were actually "childish faces". They were obviously in their twenties, but their appearance really looked like students in their third year or freshman. If the makeup artist worked harder, it would not be a problem to let them play the boys in their first year of high school.

Since there is no problem with appearance, Lin Junxiu asked them to try a scene. The boy's childhood face is easy to disguise, but the boy's youthful feeling is very difficult to present. I don't know if the domestic film and television industry is too impetuous, which has led to the psychological age of domestic actors being much older. Many actors who are obviously still young often show the simplicity and passion of the boy when playing the role of teenagers, but the greasy adult feeling trapped in the secular world for many years. Fortunately, the brothers' youthful feeling is still full, so Lin Junxiu nodded and recognized their audition. After confirming the itinerary and schedule of the two, Xiu Production arranged to sign a performance contract with their offices.

"I remember Teacher Lin has released a lot of singles related to baseball in the past? So can we use them as interludes in movies?" Someone from Toho suggested during the production meeting.

They are now eager to tie Nagasawa Masami with Lin Junsoo completely, so although Lin Junsoo does not appear in this movie, it is okay to have Lin Junsoo speak out.

"If it's right, I'll consider it." Lin Junxiu said.

Lin Junxiu does have several Jiaziyuan support songs, and these songs are suitable for being included in baseball movies. Since that is the case, Lin Junxiu does not refuse to earn this licensing fee.

"What about the theme song? Otherwise, please ask Teacher Lin to sing it?" Dongbao said with some greed.

"This is not suitable!" Lin Junxiu immediately refused.

The movie version of "Baseball Heroes" is a heroine's movie. How can a boy sing the theme song? Such a movie requires a female theme song, preferably a song that tells the vague love and longing for happiness.

"I remember that after Judy and Mary disbanded, the lead singer Yuki was always in Solo? Her record contract seems to be under Sony Music, probably under the Epi label. You can find out if the single she released in 2005 is called "The Legend of the Singular". I have vaguely heard of this song and think it is very suitable to see if I can discuss the authorization."

"We will contact Isotani Yukisan immediately." Sony's person said.

Sony's Sony Film and Television Entertainment and Sony Music Entertainment are both members of Lin Junxiu's production committee, so they are also present in this production meeting. Yuki Isotani is Yuki's real name, but she rarely uses this name to engage in activities. With Sony's intervention, as long as there is no butterfly effect in this plane, the chance of cooperation will be quite high.

The binding effect between the Japanese music and film and television industry is very great. In the last century, there was even a saying that "no Tie-Up (bundled) is not popular". Therefore, it is very helpful to the sales volume when encountering a good film and television drama.
