Chapter 429 Crazy job-hopping
Three butchers talk about pigs, three scholars talk about books, and of course there are topics in the circle of professions. Lydia's friends are basically from the film and television industry, and of course they are talking about the topics in the film and television industry, especially the ratings of Ogawa Drama have not been satisfactory in recent years. As the producer this year, Kenta Nakajima is also very anxious. This problem is a dead end. The current solution is to dig into novels for adaptation, which is also a helpless move.
Everyone has no choice about this ratings issue, mainly because Ogawa Drama can only shoot more rigorous historical dramas, and history is always heavy, and there is too little attention and exciting content. The golden age of Ogawa Drama was from 1987 to 1989. Drama such as "One-eyed Dragon Masamune" and "Tada Shingen" had the highest ratings. Kenta Nakajima also thought about asking the starring actor back to act in another movie, but the situation has changed.
The person who starred in "One-Eyed Dragon Masamune", is true, it is the guy who played Saito in "Inception". This person is currently mainly engaged in Hollywood, and it is not that he will not take on his own dramas, but that the price is too high. The producers have to consider cost factors, and it is not that he will definitely have ratings after he goes to Watanabe. This is not accurate, so Kenta Nakajima dared not say that he must spend a lot of money to invite him back.
The starring Takaichi Nakai, who starred in "Tada Shingen", went to the Han Empire to make money. You are right. This handsome guy is a very famous person in the film industry of the Han Empire. When he played Japanese, he was basically selected by those people. Takaichi Nakai's acting skills are the best among these people. For example, in the film "Dunhuang", there is a Tang envoy played by Takaichi Nakai.
Takaichi Nakai didn't mind coming back to act. However, he didn't want to act in Okawa drama again. He had only acted in "Tao Shingen" once in his life, and he was not confident that he would be more than this role. If he came back and acted again but failed and the ratings were low, wouldn't it ruin all the glory of the previous ones? So he refused to star in Okawa drama again. Kenta Nakajima had no choice but to give up.
Since there is nothing to do with this situation, everyone can only talk about other topics. Lydia asked Yuri Nakano and said, "Did you have played any roles recently? Are there any interesting roles?"
Nakano also sighed a little. She said: "It's too late for me to enter the film and television industry. The role is too serious. Now I'm basically the strong women who are invited to play, but I really want to challenge it with another role. The problem is that no director is willing to take risks."
Hiraga Tosaburo is a fat man. His round and chubby face looks very rich. He smiled and said, "It's good that you have a fixed shape. As long as you have such a play, you will think of you first. Changing roles is a risk. If the ratings are not enough, you will feel uncomfortable. It's better for everyone to follow the old ways."
After all, it was all the ratings that caused trouble. Liu Jinpeng and Liu Mei were basically just listening. Now they understand how heavy these industry insiders have viewed this data. Lydia remembered that there were two friends here, and said to Liu Jinpeng: "The friend of Mr. Wan and Mr. Zhu has started to work. For details, you can ask Linda, don't forget that my promise to you will always be effective."
Nakano didn't look like a curious person, but he asked unexpectedly: "What promise? Lida, your promise is very valuable. This gentleman seems to be worthy of your attention?" Although she spoke Japanese, how could Liu Jinpeng not understand. Their conversations are usually in Chinese. After all, the influence of this neighbor is not so easy to eliminate, but Nakano obviously did not expect that Liu Jinpeng had an invisible translator.
Lydia seemed to be the kind of person who likes to show off and said with a smile: "I promised to help him run a quota to go to Hollywood for free. He brought me a business, which is better to treat it as a reward." The last sentence intended to explain, but it did not achieve the effect. What business has such a huge profit worth running for you for free, which is even more curious.
Nakano was very curious, and although the other people didn't ask, they looked forward to the answers with their expressions. Lydia found that she was a little playful and asked for help to see Liu Jinpeng. Liu Mei quickly interrupted: "That's right, he introduced two Masters to Lidazai, so Lida wanted to express her gratitude." So that's it, everyone understands, it turns out that they are cheating on friends.
Liu Jinpeng was angry at these people's eyes, but he couldn't expose his anger on Liu Mei, so he could only stare at Lydia hatefully. Lydia was also a little guilty and wiped her sweat and said, "Okay, I'll tell the truth. I think Mr. Liu has a great influence. I hope to maintain a friendly relationship with him. After all, we introduced me to a business as soon as we met, right?"
Kenta Nakajima also began to be interested in Liu Jinpeng. He asked: "Miss Lida, you just introduced that Mr. Liu is the chairman of Titanium Star Group? Did he build that fantasy game console?"
Kiyo Nakagawa rarely speaks today, and when he heard the fantasy game console, he couldn't help but interrupt, "That's a very interesting toy. My son is clamoring to buy it every day. Before I make up my mind, I'm afraid that my children will get addicted to it and abandon their studies."
Hiraga Tosaburo also heard of dream game consoles, but he did not have an intuitive understanding. He thought it was the kind of TV game consoles that were used to be. He said: "The addicts of TV game consoles are indeed very large, but I think appropriate guidance can still be avoided."
Kenta Nakajima felt embarrassed and hurriedly said, "Fantasy game consoles are holographic games consoles, they don't need TVs. Hiraki, you need to get in touch with more new things."
Seeing that the leader said this, Tosaburo Hiraga could only nod and said, "Yes, yes."
Kiyo Nakagawa suddenly said: "Have you ever thought about developing a holographic movie or TV series? The audience can watch the performances of movie and TV characters from multiple angles from the audience, which should be helpful to the ratings?"
Liu Jinpeng felt strange when he suddenly turned to holographic technology, but he was prepared for it and replied: "Hologram playback technology is basically mature now, but recording is still a problem. Moreover, the investment in holographic equipment is very large and it is incompatible with existing playback equipment. If this happens, all theaters may have to change their equipment. I guess few people have such a big deal."
Kenta Nakajima is very open-minded in this regard. He said: "I think this is a historical trend, just like 3D screens will replace ordinary wide screens sooner or later. At the beginning, there were dozens of 3D screens around the world, and now it may have exceeded tens of thousands of yuan." Moreover, the price of 3D screen movies is more expensive, allowing directors to show their ideas and creativity. It is really a big feast for the producers.
This is not a concern. As long as the audience likes it, whether it is a 3D screen or a holographic screen, it will gradually become popular. The biggest problem here is really a technical problem. As long as the technical problem can be solved, audiences around the world will still buy it.
Liu Jinpeng has no intention of promoting holographic movies recently, but he will not say anything. He is not the only one with holographic technology now. It’s just that Titanium Star Group’s holographic technology is the most successful and commercial. Some holographic technologies can now simulate a short drama, but the gridization is too serious, which is much worse than Titanium Star Group’s technology.
The launch of the holographic game console is the biggest victory, and the equipment is directly provided, which is the advantage. Kyoo Nakagawa even suggested: "The functions of the dream game console should be more than that. In addition to the game functions, it should also be able to play holographic videos. I think Mr. Liu can consider launching a batch of holographic videos for users of the dream game console, and they will become the first batch of holographic movie enthusiasts."
This suggestion is very good. Liu Jinpeng quickly signaled Eva to write it down. Kenta Nakajima teased Nakagawa and said, "You might as well quit your job and not be a screenwriter to do the planning. I guess Mr. Liu is definitely willing to take you in."
Don't say it, Kiyoo Nakagawa really has this idea. He looked at Liu Jinpeng and said, "It would be better if Director Liu wanted me. I just came up with ideas. The screenwriter was also pronounced, and the planning was pronounced. Anyway, it was the same. It might be more interesting to do something special."
Hiraga teased him and said, "Nakagawa, you decided to change jobs to make new products for your son. I can understand you, haha."
Liu Jinpeng also smiled. He would not take what these people said seriously. As a result, when the show ended, Yuri Nakano pulled Lydia to Liu Jinpeng and said, "I guess, Nakagawa will come to you later. If you are optimistic about him, you might as well keep him. He is not very happy in NHK." Screenwriter is a very stressful profession. The previous screenwriter of Okawa even ended his life by committing suicide.
Liu Jinpeng was also talking a lot and actually said, "Miss Nakano, you care about Mr. Nakagawa very much."
Yuri Nakano gave this guy a disdain, pulled Lydia, who was smirking, and turned around and left, not responding to this question at all. This posture and expression were indeed very queenly. Liu Jinpeng grabbed his head and was pinched by Liu Mei and complained: "You have lost your soul. They are all in their forties. Don't think that the tender cows eat old grass."
This was simply slander. Liu Jinpeng couldn't tell her. At this moment, Kyoto Nakagawa came back sneakily. Seeing that Liu Jinpeng was still there, he hurriedly ran over and said, "Dr. Liu, I really like dream game consoles. Does your company still need creative personnel like me? I will work hard." This guy is in his thirties, so why is he still so unstable?
"What about your relationship with NHK?" Liu Jinpeng had to ask clearly. He didn't mind using Japanese as an employee, but he couldn't make trouble.
"I can resign," Kiyoo Nakagawa was really brave enough to say and do it. He immediately took out the paper and pen in his bag and started writing his resignation letter. "My family is also very simple. The wife is a housewife. The child is in Tokyo, but she can transfer to school, so there is no problem."
This guy is too resolute. Liu Jinpeng has never seen anyone who is in a hurry to change jobs. He advised: "The child is still young, and it is not good for him to transfer schools. Do you think about it?"
"No need to think about it. I have long wanted to submit a cover letter to you, but I am afraid that you will not accept foreigners." At this time, Nakagawa was like a passionate young man, lying on the coffee table excitedly and writing a resignation letter without raising his head when answering questions.
