I really can't act

Chapter 207 Film Diplomacy
The duration of the film festival is very long, the actors often only participate in the awards ceremony in the last few days, and do not participate in the previous major film exhibitions, and these links are the favorite of ordinary movie fans.

Before Fang Yi came to Tokyo, the city had been warming up for a long time.At present, the Tokyo Film Festival is the highest award of the Asian film festival. The Oriental people hosted this ceremony as the leader of the martial arts. But he became a frequent visitor to the awards, so that the media lamented "making wedding dresses for others".

People in the oriental film industry are obviously dissatisfied with this phenomenon. They have been brilliant in the past and are the light of Asian films.Now it is natural to think that the younger generation has dragged down the older generation.

Local director Takeshi Kitano participated in Fuji TV's live program on the East Film Festival, and talked about the recent popular Chinese movie star Fang Yi, who made a big splash at the opening red carpet show.

On the big screen in the recording hall, Fang Yi raised his head under the ginkgo leaves, and he smiled at fans on the red carpet show.

Takeshi Kitano looked at it for a while, and suddenly became angry: "No! Look, Fang Yi, is his name Fang Yi? He looks very gentleman, neither humble nor overbearing. He doesn't have the kind of smile that pleases fans, the kind of you The laugh you would see on the cowherds on the streets of Shibuya."

The female anchor is Takikawa Masami, known for her beauty and mixed race.She covered her mouth and smiled, "Ms. Kitano, are you talking about Johnny's idol?"

Johnny's & Associates is Toyo's idol overlord company, and its artists mainly focus on handsome men.

The big screen in the recording room was immediately replaced with the local idol's washed, cut and blown hairstyle. Compared with the two, this made Kitano even more angry: "That's what I mean, they have affected the aesthetics of the people! We are a Westernized Yes, but it still has to maintain the inner culture of the country, when I fly abroad, I often see many Asians push their hair flat on both sides and leave the middle..."

"This is to make your head look more three-dimensional, pretending to be white. But we are different. We want men to grow long hair and dye it in various colors, thinking that it will be unique...It's really Is it the culture produced in the East, perhaps it is the visual rock that became popular in England in the 60s."

The big screen switched back to Fang Yi's photo.The people in the studio silently listened to Takeshi Kitano complaining.

Since the death of Akira Kurosawa, Takeshi Kitano has become the only leading brother in Toyo, and his status is comparable to that of the big brother Cheng in the Hong Kong circle.

"What is our true aesthetics? Or don't say us, what is the true aesthetics of China, Japan and South Korea? Is it like this in history? I want to return to the original aesthetics of East Asia."

The hostess said: "Mr. Kitano, are there any local idols with a similar image? Fang Yi's beauty has caused a sensation among movie fans!"

"Why not?" Takeshi Kitano asked, taking the time to look at the big screen again, he was stunned for a moment, and changed the subject, "Don't say whether you have it, first say whether you want it or not."

"I don't want foreigners to come to this place. All I see in pictorials are feminine looks. This Fang Yi is also very immature, but he has no intention of pretending to be a woman at all. He is very masculine... I really hope so His looks represent the aesthetics of East Asians, and when I communicate with my counterparts in Europe and the United States, I am embarrassed to show my hand."

The female anchor said: "However, the new Prime Minister will be unhappy..."

Takeshi Kitano insisted: "An adult like him will understand me!"

——Hatoyama, representative of the "pro-China faction" in the East.Previously, he was the chairman of the East Asian Community Research Institute and an honorary professor at many universities in China.

Advocate an apology for the historical issues left by China and South Korea; advocate the development of the East Asia Free Trade Area; promise never to visit the Yasukuni Shrine.

On September 9, the same day that "The Founding of a Country" next door was released, Hatoyama announced his appointment as the new Prime Minister of Toyo and formed a cabinet.

Perhaps it was because his wife had been a musical actress before, or because the Eastern culture circle was relatively neutral, so he put his first focus on movies, and he wanted to participate in this Tokyo Film Festival and award awards.

Is this the "ping-pong diplomacy" of the Orientals?

——After the red carpet show, many celebrities were asked to gather together. Officials from the Japan Division of the Asian Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will come to condolences and announce something.

The person who came was wearing a suit, and his appearance was excellent, even compared with the actors, he was not too inferior.

He did not have the lengthy speeches of ordinary leaders, but said bluntly:
"I don't know if you have seen the news. The Prime Minister of Toyo is coming to present the awards and participate in the ceremony. I will also accompany him throughout the ceremony. This is a good opportunity for cultural exchanges. Don't say too violent words, you must conform to the general environment. You are all experienced in many battles, and you must understand what I mean."

He scanned the stars, and suddenly his eyes lit up:
"I still need a representative comrade to lead us. The Japanese side also has them. Both sides are outstanding talents of the younger generation. Who wants to come?"

The female stars automatically lowered their heads, avoiding their eyes.Actors want to make their debut, but some of them are from Treasure Island, Hong Kong, and those who are beyond the age... Everyone's eyes fell on Fang Yi.

The director was also very satisfied, and asked him, "What's your name?"

"Fang Yi. Yi in Yimeng Mountain."

"I have to ask, you are from mainland China, did you graduate from a mainland school?"

"I'm from Central Opera."

The director nodded and said, "Okay, the root is Zheng Miaohong. The affiliated colleges of the Central Opera, I am most assured of those who come out of the Central Opera. You follow me."

So, Fang Yi somehow left the crew with the people from Shangfeng. Fang Yi's assistant wanted to follow him, but Fang Yi signaled him not to follow.

The car of the Foreign Affairs Office is a red flag car with a red national flag on it. Fang Yi felt drummed when he saw it, "Director, is my outfit suitable?"

"Do you mean?"

"Will it be too sharp?"

Fang Yi tugged at the clothes sponsored by Dior. This slim fit matte black suit made him look more mature than usual, and it perfectly fit his lines... It's too dry to say so. Let's use an analogy, like It is a male peacock with a blooming tail.

It is not the same as the seriousness of politics.

The director looked him up and down, and said with a big smile, "I want this kind of effect for you, to overwhelm the opponent, to surpass the opponent, the more handsome the better—all the handsome guys in our Ministry of Foreign Affairs are not as handsome as you. It's the cards."

"Then I won't change it?"

"Well...you loosen the bow, don't be too serious."

"it is good."

With the help of others, Fang Yi got into the car. The tonnage of this car was extremely heavy. When the brake was closed, there was a heavy hoarse sound, and it was almost impossible to hear any sound from outside.

Fang Yi stared at the group of movie fans outside from the car window. The fans who came for his "monk Fang" held banners in Chinese and sat quietly in a row.

They don't know that God is just a few meters away from them, but in the car.

"Fang Yi?"

The director suddenly raised his head and called him, and also stared at the group of fans outside:
"They are all your fans? I see it says Fang Yi, Your Highness."

"Yes."

The director nodded slightly, then smiled suddenly, "They are all Japanese."

"mostly."

"Okay, you're really nice."
