Although he had money, not much was actually invested in the filming this time.

Because as soon as he got the money, Takeshi Ono spent 1 million to directly buy the Medieval Art Museum!

This was originally a small art gallery, and the owner's business was in crisis and on the verge of bankruptcy. Although the price was far below expectations, he still gritted his teeth and sold it in the end.

Of course, the purpose of Takeshi Onino doing this was to change the outcome where Director Ochiai would kill someone and go to jail.

Although the price was high, given the relationship between him and Director Ochiai, Takeshi Ono spent the money without hesitation.

And after learning that his apprentice had actually bought the art museum, handed it over to him for complete management, and invested 2000 million yen as operating capital, even Director Ochiai, who always appeared strong, could not help but burst into tears.

He wanted to refuse but couldn't resist Gui Yewu.

I was both surprised and touched.

Holding Gui Yewu's hand, I didn't know what to say for a moment.

Finally, he patted him on the shoulder and said "good" several times with satisfaction.

Looking at the excited and happy old man, Guiye Wu felt that the money was not spent in vain, even though it took up most of his liquid funds.

But it's all worth it.

His creed is to repay a favor.

Fortunately, "The Grudge" itself is just a low-budget movie, and the remaining 3000 million should be more than enough money for filming.

However, we should still stick to the principle of saving as much as possible and spend money where it counts.

Tatsuo Yamaguchi fully implemented the spirit of leadership. The crew did not look for big names with outstanding reputations in the industry, but instead chose some young practitioners who had good professionalism but were not well-known for various reasons.

It is capable and cheap, with a very high cost-effectiveness.

Among them, it is worth mentioning the cameraman Ryuichi Yanase.

This person is a well-known professional photo photographer who specializes in taking news photos and submitting them to the media for profit. This time, for some unknown reason, he took the initiative to recommend himself to Onino Eiga and applied to be the cameraman of this movie.

He also took the initiative to lower his price and stood out from the crowd of applicants with his absolute price advantage.

Yamaguchi Tatsuo investigated and found that although the other party was a photo photographer, he had worked as a cameraman for a film crew before entering the industry. He was quite professional and had experience in shooting film and television dramas. The most important point was that he was indeed cheap, so he decided to hire him immediately.

When he reported to Takeshi Onino, the latter saw through Yanagisawa Ryuichi's intention at a glance, which was nothing more than trying to gain fame by riding on the popularity.

He is a smart or ambitious guy who knows how to give up small profits in exchange for greater benefits.

Once "The Grudge" becomes a huge success, that is the qualifications and the traffic, he will get far more than the little salary he is giving up now.

Although he could see the other party's intentions, Takeshi Ono did not reject Ryuichi Yanagisawa. The other party's behavior was not unusual in the entertainment industry, or it was commonplace. The key was that he was really cheap and his ability was also good, so why not use him?

He didn't realize that Yanase Ryuichi's name looked familiar.

Although his memory has been enhanced, he did not watch every episode of the animation in his previous life. Moreover, Conan has more than a thousand episodes and countless characters have appeared. Onino Takeshi would not recall it specifically unless he had nothing to do.

Most minor characters are only remembered when relevant events occur.

On the contrary, when I saw the name Sakai Natsuki, I couldn't help but feel surprised.

As the murderer who appeared in the movie, I still have some impression of Takeshi Onino.

But he soon calmed down.

It is very normal to meet the murderer in Conan. You can run into three or five of them when you go out to buy a pack of cigarettes.

There's nothing surprising about that.

The focus is on the character's own problems.

It just so happens that Natsuki Sakai is a murderer who deserves sympathy. She killed people in anger because she was suppressed by the star she served and her dreams were completely destroyed. It is understandable that she killed people in anger.

He is not a cruel and evil person.

Therefore, Takeshi Onino is willing to give Natsuki Sakai a chance.

I even considered whether to recruit her to Onino Eiga afterwards, perhaps her tragedy could have been avoided.

It's not that I'm too sanctimonious, but since I've met him and he's not a real bad guy, it's just a piece of cake to give him a hand.

Gui Yewu did not realize how valuable his seemingly ordinary crew was, and how it could be called a place full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers.

The key is that there is also a bug-level big boss - Conan!
This was not someone who was invited by Takeshi Onino, but Conan, after hearing that Xiaolan was also going to star in the film, insisted on coming along.

It just so happens that the movie needs an important boy role, and Conan, who is a little kid, is a perfect fit. In terms of acting alone, this boy is indeed very capable and outstanding.

Nature is completely liberated.

Onino Takeshi only thought that Conan, the follower, was reluctant to part with his childhood sweetheart, but he didn't know that his real target was actually himself.

The purpose is to take the opportunity to get close to him and find clues about Gin and the Black Organization.

As for Conan's Death Halo...

Onino Takeshi plans to focus on filming Conan's scenes first, which can be completed within a few days.

It's only been a few days, and things don't happen every day when Conan is in school.

And before, with Mao Lilan suppressing it, nothing happened.

This time, nothing should go wrong...right?

……

Facts have proved that Gui Yewu was still too naive and that relying on luck is not a good idea.

This is too much of an underestimation of Conan's evil nature.

Gui Yewu, who had gone ahead to investigate the scene, had just set out when he received a shocking piece of bad news.

problem occurs!
The victim is the heroine Yoko Okino!

When Takeshi Ono received a call from Eiichi Yamagishi to explain, he was completely speechless.

Conan, looks like Lee again!

Gui Yewu couldn't help but be amazed. The filming hasn't even officially started yet, and the halo of death has already started to show its power?

He directly defeated his heroine!

Gan!
Things are not complicated.

Just last night, a fanatical stalker broke into Yoko Okino's home and committed suicide. Although Kogoro Mori, who happened to be present, cleared Yoko Okino's innocence, the news was still leaked.

Yoko Okino was inevitably caught in the whirlpool of public opinion.

Plus, he needs to cooperate with the police investigation, so how can he have the time to act in a movie?

Gui Yewu rolled his eyes and said, what stalker fan? He’s obviously the ex-boyfriend!
Yamagishi Eiichi's excuse failed to fool Onino Takeshi who knew the plot.

Of course, he could understand that the other party was trying to protect Yoko Okino's privacy and image, but the question was what to do now?
He has no heroine anymore!
Gui Yewu took a deep breath. What a great guy! He is worthy of being Conan. He never comes back empty-handed whenever he appears!
Although he didn't kill Yoko Okino, he did kill his heroine!

Gui Yewu was at a loss.

The filming of the movie is about to start, but the heroine is gone. What to do next?

He couldn't just sit there and wait for Yoko Okino to solve the problem.

Obviously, for now, there is only one option left for Gui Yewu, and that is to find a new heroine.

How can it be repaired?
Gui Yewu cursed inwardly.

But there is nothing to do.

What a bad luck! This is completely force majeure!

Fortunately, Yoko Okino probably didn't want to offend Takeshi Onino, a promising director, so she recommended another actress she was familiar with.

"Hello, Director Onino, I'm Akiko Kinoshita."

Looking at the beautiful young woman in front of him, Gui Yewu showed a satisfied look.

He knew this Akiko Kinoshita, both in this life and in the previous life.

She debuted through a talent show and just starred in a TV series called "The Snow Woman's Love", but it has not yet been released.

An actress who is currently only slightly famous but has great potential. People in the industry generally have good opinions about her. She has good acting skills, is willing to work hard, and has good character. She is a young artist with good reputation and strength.

Takeshi Onino was quite satisfied with the replacement candidate recommended by Yoko Okino.

Although her popularity is far from comparable to that of Yoko Okino, he happened to have seen this episode, so Takeshi Ono knew that as long as "The Love of the Snow Woman" was released, Akiko Kinoshita would immediately become an instant hit and her popularity would soar!

Letting Akiko Kinoshita participate now would be like buying at a bargain price. How could Takeshi Onino not agree?

only……

I'll have to find a chance to remind her to be careful with her stunt double next time.

After Akiko Kinoshita signed the contract, Takeshi Onino finally felt relieved.

Fortunately, it did not have much impact on "The Grudge".

Then, we have to deal with Conan's problem...
