Japanese Entertainment: From special effects actor to action superstar

Chapter 417 Sailor Suit and Machine Gun

The next day, at the Extreme Action Agency.

"Jump, jump, you pampered plumber!"

"Run! Run! The bucket is coming!"

"I'm too strong! With this item, even my abilities have been multiplied. It's not just 1+1, it's 1x1!"

Gu Ming leaned back instantly.

The people in this firm are all illiterate! They've obviously never been to school!

However, Gu Ming understood what they meant. It was the difference between multiplication and addition!

It should be the difference between 2+2 and 2X2.

Gu Ming scratched his head.

Wait, that's not right!

After finishing a game, Zhenxia Long handed the controller to an employee next to him and looked at Gu Ming.

"Brother Gugu, what's this? It's so much fun!"

Gu Ming looked at the group of young people shouting and yelling in front of him, and then at Zhen Xialong's yearning eyes, and spread his hands.

"Don't ask me, I don't know either."

This thing isn't called FC yet, and Gu Ming doesn't plan to reveal it beforehand.

Historically, the FC was released in 1983, but its development was a long process, not just a matter of one or two years.

The FC already has a prototype, but it is designed as a home computer rather than a game console, only with game functions as a secondary feature.

Gu Ming knew that Nintendo would soon discover that it was not capable of making high-tech things like computers, so it simply turned the FC into a game console.

Right now, everyone in the office is playing Donkey Kong, an arcade game released in 1981.

A gorilla throws buckets from above, while a plumber wearing a Mario-style hat, but with a different color scheme, walks up the winding mountain road to the finish line from below.

Originally an arcade game, it has been condensed by Nintendo into this little thing in front of you.

"It's a pity that it's still a green engineering sample. It would be great if it could be painted red and white."

Gu Ming shook his head and urged the others, "Keep the game down, don't disturb the training! We have guests coming later, don't let them see us like this."

Before long, Yakushimaru Saburo arrived with Yakushimaru Hiroko.

Even from a distance, Yakushimaru Saburo could see several people shouting and yelling. The moment he saw the green engineering machine, he became extremely wary.

For some reason, as a parent, he felt that the little thing in front of him was emanating some kind of monstrous aura, as if it could poison elementary school students for decades.

"He's idle and irresponsible. Just look at how undisciplined these contract workers that Gu Guming leads are; that tells you what kind of person he is!"

Hiroko Yakushimaru twitched her toes, somewhat dismissing the statement.

"It's nice here, everyone's making a lot of noise, it's like being at home."

Yakushimaru Saburo looked at her.

How so? If this is your home, then who is Akira Furuya to you?

Ignoring everything else, Hiroko Yakushimaru hopped to the door and knocked on the office door.

"Enter."

Gu Ming responded from inside the house and beckoned the two of them to come in.

"Let's get straight to the point. This is a movie project that may involve gunfights, car chases, and the like. The script is still being finalized, but the project is ready. You can take a look."

Hiroko Yakushimaru took it and examined it closely. She said that the high school girl 'Hoshizumi' lived in a slum in Tokyo, Japan. Her family was poor, her parents treated her badly, and her living conditions were extremely bad. Only her younger brother was kind to her.

By chance, Xingquan met a stranger living in the same building, and their lives began to intersect.

After a series of events, the two finally avenged themselves by killing the international police. However, the assassin fell before the light, and only Xingquan, with the help of his contact Tony, left Japan and came to Hong Kong to start a new life.

"Ah, that's great."

She couldn't help but raise the back of her hand to wipe away her tears.

I never expected that Akira Furuya, who doesn't seem very bright, could write such a moving story.

"I'll take a look too."

Yakushimaru Saburo wanted to review the script and examined it carefully.

After a few glances, Yakushimaru Saburo's expression changed slightly.

"Hiroko, you can go out now." "Dad?"

"You can go out first. I want to talk to Furuya-kun alone."

Hiroko Yakushimaru didn't understand, but she still silently walked out.

She watched the few action actors shouting and yelling for a while, and finally couldn't help but speak up.

"What are you doing?"

"Donkey Kong, it's so much fun!" Zhenxia Long handed over the controller, enthusiastically inviting, "Hiroko, why don't you try it too?"

……

After seeing Hiroko Yakushimaru off, Saburo Yakushimaru stood up, seemingly wanting to punch Akira Tani, but ultimately held back.

Or rather, we have to put up with it.

"Akira Furuya, what kind of nonsense is this?! I don't agree with it, I can't let Hiroko act in this kind of thing!"

Gu Ming crossed his arms, looked at Yakushi Maru Saburo with a leisurely air, and sighed, "Because there are elements of romance in the story, and one of them is a child?"

"if not!"

"Yes, that's what I initially thought too, but I've decided to remove that storyline, and the ending has been changed from dark to bright, making it even better."

Yakushimaru Saburo was slightly taken aback.

As a director himself, he is well aware of how appealing such stories would be if they retained the element of romance.

But now Gu Ming says he wants to delete it.

"Otherwise what?" Gu Ming smiled. "I hope my works can give people a positive and uplifting feeling. Even if the story is more appealing, I don't want to use that as the selling point of my films."

"Oh dear!" Yakushimaru Saburo couldn't help but tap the script.

Look at the mess this has made!

"Alright, you're something else..."

Yakushimaru Saburo suddenly stopped and changed his address: "President Furuya."

Things are different now; we should still show some respect.

Gu Ming gestured for him to proceed.

Yakushimaru Saburo responded and got up to leave.

Gu Mingze plans to have the planning department further refine this file.

Nintendo is preparing to promote their home computer, which is certainly not just a simple advertisement; it also involves a lot of subtle product placement.

Therefore, Gu Ming plans to change the original scene of watching children's movies in the plot to playing FC, and then there can be a few FC scenes.

It's reasonable for the French to watch anime, and for us Japanese to play NES games, right?

"But the design needs to be modified. The prototype is too ugly. It can't be shown on TV. Let's add a shell. Nintendo might even have to pay me patent fees!"

Gu Ming shook his head and raised his hand to write it down.

As soon as Saburo Yakushimaru stepped outside, he saw Hiroko Yakushimaru yelling and shouting in front of the television, and Saburo Yakushimaru's scalp tingled instantly.

Quack!!

The wicked poison of video games has come to harm his children!

"Give it to me! Who told you to play this?!"

He snatched the handle from his hand, and the others immediately pointed it at Zhenxia Long.

Even the dragon head of the summer dragon didn't turn back and was the first to run away.

It wasn't him; he didn't know him!

"Damn it! This thing is absolutely not a good thing!"

Hiroko Yakushimaru said, "This is jumping."

"What are you jumping around for? Do you think someone my age would do something like this?"

A bucket fell and killed the optimistic Mario.

Yakushimaru Saburo paused for a moment, then suddenly turned around.

Which one is the jump?
