Be a goddess from Tokyo

Chapter 479

The unreliable here means that he is not very optimistic about Luo Quan's chosen subject matter, but no one doubts Luo Quan's director level and storytelling ability.

For her directorial debut "Resident Evil", she wrote, directed, and acted in the entire film, and also included post-production dubbing, monster makeup guidance, and costume design, almost all done by herself.

This level of comprehensiveness cannot be said to be all-rounder, it can only be described as a humanoid self-propelled film-making machine.

It's hard to imagine a director juggling so much project work at once and still do it so well.

It can only be said that Luoquan's rich knowledge reserves and proficiency in related skills have reached a level that ordinary people can't even imagine.

The explosion of "Resident Evil" is an excellent manifestation of her talent. Now fans all over the world are waiting for her second film. It can be said that the prototype of a big hit IP has been established.

But Luo Quan doesn't seem to like counting money on her credit book. When she succeeds in a field, she will quickly jump out of her comfort zone and take on new challenges.

At the beginning, she still faced some doubts. After all, she is the least controversial in the field of music. When she dabbles in other fields, she will be more or less distrusted.

But now, basically no one would doubt her talent anymore.

Since Paris Fashion Week, Luo Quan's level has risen from a musical genius to an all-round genius. It used to be Oriental Mozart, but now it should be renamed Oriental Da Vinci, which means everything.

And movies belong to the field that Luo Quan has already proven. "Resident Evil" has now exceeded [-] million views on Netflix, and with the box office of China's release, it has earned more than one billion US dollars.

This is not counting the high copyright fees paid by horror-themed houses everywhere to obtain the right to use zombie images.

In short, in the eyes of companies in the entertainment industry, Luoquan’s brand name is no different from walking dollars. If you can cooperate, you will earn money.

However, Luo Quan has always been adhering to the principle of nepotism and the principle of cooperation that does not flow to outsiders. If it can be done with familiar partners, it will generally not find other people.

Of course, there are quite a few familiar partners in Luoquan now, Sony, Penguin, and Universal are all big names among the big names.

Who can get the cooperation depends on who moves faster.

As the saying goes, people who are close to the water first get the moon. As soon as the person in Luoquan, East Jing, tweeted this, people from Sony came to the door.

The door of Luoquan Hotel was knocked open, and it was Miki who appeared in front of him.

"Miki, long time no see." Luo Quan smiled pleasantly when he saw his old friend in front of him.

Compared with a year ago, Miki's face is tougher and more serious, which should be related to his promotion to the management.

"You're back, Director Shicun and I miss you every day." Miki made a nasty joke, and at the same time expressed his intentions cryptically.

I think she is definitely not interested in her, it is true to want her to release a new album.

Just when Luo Quan was thinking about how to express that he didn't have the energy to release a new song for the time being, Miki himself spoke first:

"Originally, I came to you this time, first to meet old friends, and second, to ask if you have any plans to release a new song recently.

But on the way I came here just now, I saw your tweet, you are going to make a movie next, right, is it called "Rurouni Kenshin"? "

Luo Quan nodded: "Yes, why, do you want to participate in the production or invest in it?"

Miki said with a smile: "Of course we won't refuse if possible, but my main purpose is to win the distribution rights of this movie—if you don't have a suitable choice yet."

"You have also dabbled in this area?" Luo Quan only knew that Sony had done a lot in music and games, but movies didn't seem to be too famous.

Miki was a little helpless: "Anyway, Sony was also the world's largest film company at the beginning of the century. Although it can't compare to top-level films such as Universal and Disney recently, it is still quite powerful in Japan.

As long as you are willing to cooperate with us, you will definitely not get less than Toei and Toho in terms of publicity and filming! "

In business talk business, as a businessman, when talking about business with Luo Quan, Miki would never talk about any friendship, but would only give promises and satisfactory treatment.

For such a sincere cooperation invitation, and having cooperated so many times, Luo Quan didn't know how to refuse anyway:

"Then this matter is settled like this, and the specific division will be discussed later."

After the movie was negotiated, Miki didn't stay in Luoquan any longer, and hurried back to the company to make detailed arrangements.

After returning to the room, Junko lay on the bed and watched "Actor's Self-cultivation" given to her by Luo Quan.

This year, many members of Girls' Generation have taken on roles, mainly in TV dramas, most of which are heroine dramas, some of which are hot and some are rushing.

But for this group of girls who have never studied acting, it is expected what the film will look like.

There must be a lot of complaints about them on the Internet, but fortunately, the girls are young, motivated and aggressive, and they are always learning, honing and improving their acting skills.

But for Junko and Yoona, they haven't filmed a movie or TV series yet, and they basically focus on the above variety shows.

so.Although Junko has learned a lot of theoretical knowledge by herself, she has not really fought in actual combat.

But this time, it is a big production with an investment of over 30 billion yen, and she has a lot of roles. The second female lead has quite a lot of rival scenes with the female lead Izumi Sauce.

With such a heavy task, Junko was still quite nervous.

Although she was born into a family of kendo, and her grandfather was one of the four great sword masters in Japan, she herself is not interested in kendo, so she didn't study hard.

As a result, when it is really needed now, it suddenly seems stretched.

The only good news is that in this kendo-themed action movie, she doesn't need to show off her unlearned swordsmanship, which is the most reassuring thing for her.

It's ironic to say that, as a descendant of the Yagyu family, she didn't even have the opportunity to show off her own swordsmanship, and I don't know if Quan Jiang knew that she was not good at learning, so she made such a design.

"Quanjiang, will we have an emotional scene in this movie?" Junko put down the book on the bed and asked suddenly.

Luo Quanzi, who was typing on the notebook, was stunned, then looked up at her with a smile and said, "Why, do you also want to have a wave of orange power?"

"I didn't mean that." Junko blushed immediately, and quickly explained: "I just want to understand the relationship between the two of us in the play, so that I can figure out the tone and expression used by the characters to get along."

Speaking of which, the protagonist in the original book was originally a man, but now that she is playing the role, the protagonist naturally becomes a woman, and the plot has been modified accordingly.

But speaking of it, in the main line of the original movie, there are not too many emotional dramas between the hero and heroine, but more about friendship, protection, and fetters. Even the combination of the heroine and the heroine will not seem particularly contrary and.

Moreover, Japan currently has more women than men, and there are so many women's colleges and universities, so that Lily Wind is quite popular, and there are quite a lot of Lily works in the animation industry, such as Qingyin, Dragon Maid, Super Gun and so on.

There is such a culture here, so two heroines in one movie cannot be regarded as non-mainstream.

Besides, the point of view of "Rurouni Kenshin" is still drama after all, and Luo Quan's emotional focus will definitely not be too much.

Then, Luo Quan told Junzi about his arrangement, and asked her to figure it out based on the script, while Luo Quan continued to formulate the filming plan for the movie.

Compared with "Resident Evil", "Rurouni Kenshin" has undoubtedly more shooting scenes, and the cost is higher.

However, there are not too many special effects for burning money, and the big head is mainly on the way of persuasion and the scene.

The second is group performances. In addition to those incapable street gangsters, she also needs a large number of extras who have a certain foundation in swordsmanship.

But she had made arrangements for this from the beginning.

Junko's family opened a kendo gym, so why bother to look far away.

But I just don't know what Junko's grandfather, that is, Mr. Yagyu Yansai, is thinking now.

This sword master has always disliked her granddaughter abandoning her studies and her family's unique knowledge to become an idol star. Back then, she took Junko away from the Yagyu Kendo Gym, and had an unusual sparring with the old man. It was a lot of trouble.

When I visit again this time, I have to face Junko's father, and I don't know what kind of problems I will face at that time.

But no matter how many problems there are, sooner or later they need to be solved.

Although Luoquan is salty, he never delays the planned itinerary.

In the evening, after signing the publishing contract of "Rurouni Kenshin" with Sony, Luo Quan and Junko took the train to Yagyu Kendo Hall under Mount Fuji.

It was the second visit, and there was still a need for someone, Luo Quan naturally would not go there empty-handed.

I learned from Junko that the old man Yagyu Yanzhai is also proficient in tea ceremony and likes tea tasting. Before coming to Japan, Luo Quan specially bought some famous Chinese teas in China, such as Longjing, Tieguanyin, Dahongpao and so on.

She doesn't know much about tea, anyway, if she buys from the most expensive and famous ones, she usually can't go wrong.

"Grandpa, I'm back!" After returning home, Junko walked into the lobby of his kendo gym.

On the outside, she is a gentle and lovely idol of vitality, but at home, her personality is like a runaway husky.

Mainly because she grew up among men, her mother didn't live in the kendo gym, she often practiced swordsmanship with a group of boys, so her personality inevitably became like a man.

Of course, just like a man at home, in front of Luo Quan and Wen Xia, Junzi still behaves like a kitten.

"I'm back." Liu Sheng Yan Zhai had known the news that his granddaughter was coming back, so he had been waiting in the lobby since this morning.

Just like the last time we met, there was an exquisite tea set in front of him, the tea inside was steaming hot and full of fragrance.

"Grandpa Liu Sheng." Luo Quan stepped forward to say hello to the Juggernaut, and then handed him a box: "This is some tea I brought from Huaxia. A little care is no respect."

"Well, thank you." Mr. Liu Sheng took the box and put it aside, "Speaking of which, you came with Junko this time, so there must be something wrong?"

Liu Shengyanzhai still understood the reason why he should not go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, not to mention that Luo Quan had given him a gift from his sincerity when he came up, so it was impossible that there were no other requests.

Luo Quan chuckled: "There is indeed one thing... I am preparing to shoot an action movie with the theme of kendo, and Junko is the second female lead in this movie.

Now the film needs some actors who have a foundation in swordsmanship, and it happens that you are opening a swordsmanship gym here, so I want to come and have a look..."

Mr. Liu Sheng was very talkative this time, and nodded lightly: "It's not a big problem. You can just explain your purpose to these disciples later. It's not like no crew came here to recruit extras before."

"By the way, do you have any disciples who are more advanced in swordsmanship? One of the characters in the movie is set to be a master." Luo Quan continued to ask while things were going well.

"The swordsmanship is more advanced... besides me, there is only Junko's father." Mr. Liu Sheng said, turning his head and shouting to the inner hall: "Xiaotai, come out!"

Soon, a 1.8-meter-tall man came out from the inner hall, and Junko went up and shouted happily, Father.

"Hello, Uncle Liusheng." Luo Quan greeted him immediately when he saw this.

The last time I came here, I didn't see Junko's father.

But from Junko, she still learned a lot about her father.

Junko's father is called Yagyu Kota, and his swordsmanship is deeply passed down by the sword master. When he was young, he won quite a few national swordsmanship championships.

Of course, the title is the title, and the real level is definitely not as good as that of a sword master like Yagyu Yansai, but it must be enough to make a movie.

After greetings, Luo Quan explained his purpose of coming to this gentle-looking uncle.

When Takata Yagyu heard that this was her daughter's first movie, she took it very seriously.

Compared with his old-fashioned father, Yagyu Kota is very open-minded and has always supported his daughter's career.

Now Junko's idol career is booming, and she can often be seen on TV and news about her. As a father, he is quite proud of his daughter.

But now, if his daughter wanted to make a movie, he, as a father, would definitely help if he could. Besides, the help was still a professional counterpart, so there was no problem.

After the problem of the important supporting roles was solved, Luo Quan came to the gymnasium disciples' practice venue and put forward his request to recruit group performers. A large group of boys responded directly, and the registration was quite enthusiastic.

Things are going well!Luo Quan was overjoyed in his heart.

The corner of Liu Sheng's mouth twitched as he watched from the side: This little girl is better at talking to her disciples than her master!
