I really just want to grind for entries related to crossover anime/manga.

On the monitor, the scene between Genkawa Yu and Asakura Toru was being replayed.

Ichiro Yamada and Nanako Suzuki watched very attentively. They were both experienced screenwriters who, although they couldn't act, could judge what was good and what was bad.

As a woman, Nanako Suzuki was clearly more perceptive than Ichiro Yamada, who was a man.

She had written stories with love as their theme before, so when she saw the way Asakura Toru looked at Genkawa Yu, she was instantly struck by something.

To be honest, she was very satisfied with Yu Genkawa's performance in "Kamen Rider: Kyoku" because she was actually a fan of the pairing with Yu Genkawa.

However, Suzuki Nanako had always liked [Yu Akane] for a long time and didn't have a good impression of [Asa Yu], who was an outsider. But after watching the two of them act together so closely, many of her thoughts gradually changed.

This isn't being a fence-sitter; it's following your heart!

She subconsciously glanced at Yamada Ichiro beside her. Although he looked somewhat puzzled, he was clearly thinking about Director Nakazawa's true thoughts.

After a while, the playback ended.

Yamada Ichiro and Suzuki Nanako exchanged another glance, both seeing a hint of understanding in each other's eyes.

They were all shrewd people, and they knew Director Nakazawa's temperament and working style very well. It was definitely not a coincidence that Director Nakazawa took the initiative to let them watch this scene; he must have some new ideas.

So, Yamada Ichiro took a deep breath and respectfully addressed Director Nakazawa.

"Director, I see a spark between Genkawa-san and Asakura-san. If we're going to change the plot, what do you think about the romance storyline?"

Upon hearing Yamada Ichiro's words, a satisfied smile immediately appeared on Director Nakazawa's face.

"Why do you say that?"

Yamada Ichiro, having observed the expressions and demeanor, seemed to have gained some insight, and thus spoke with even greater confidence.

“I think that Genkawa-san and Asakura-san are both excellent actors, and they have a great chemistry with each other. The sweet atmosphere they are showing now cannot be faked. Although I don’t know how close they are in private, I think we can take advantage of that.”

"Romance elements are quite common in the Kamen Rider series. Even when the plot is developed, it doesn't feel too jarring. Instead, it makes viewers who like this type of story even more enjoy watching it."

"And you, Suzuki-san?"

Upon hearing Director Nakazawa's question, Nanako Suzuki immediately explained that she had just finished reviewing the scene and understood the director's "deep needs."

After all, revising a script is no small matter. Generally, it requires the production company and the production team to take the lead, and discussions should be held in conjunction with audience reactions. It usually takes at least several rounds of meetings to reach a conclusion.

But the director is, after all, the supreme ruler on set and has considerable say in the project, so this balance needs to be carefully maintained.

On the other hand, if the director directly orders them to add a romance subplot, and the plot flops, the director himself will be the one to blame.

If the two screenwriters had taken the initiative to bring up the discussion, the director wouldn't have had much of a problem.

Of course, this is also an opportunity. If the revised script becomes a huge hit, it will be a badge of honor for the two screenwriters.

"I think Yamada-san's idea is very good. The interaction between Genkawa-san and Asakura-san is both intimate and natural. If a love line could be arranged... it would definitely attract a lot of viewers."

"Furthermore, I've written romance scenes before. I can combine the personalities of the two characters, as well as the plot development, to create some sweet yet natural love stories. We can have everyone discuss it internally first to see how we can naturally integrate this love story into the plot of the Desire Grand Prix."

"Yes, Suzuki-san's considerations are very thorough."

"Thank you for the compliment, Director."

Director Nakazawa's gaze fell once again on Genkawa Yu and Asakura Toru, who were not far away, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

"If we really go down this path, we might be able to capitalize on the popularity of the two as a couple and develop more related products."

“I checked the letters from the audience a few days ago, and many people really liked the scenes where Genkawa-kun and Asakura-san were together. If we could create a love story for them and give them more unique interactions in the drama, I believe it might greatly increase the show’s ratings and popularity.”

Yamada Ichiro and Suzuki Nanako nodded repeatedly, their faces showing agreement.

Toei is, after all, a commercial company. No matter how many Kamen Rider films they make, they ultimately rely on the productions and merchandise to make money.

The spending level of CP fans is probably second only to that of girlfriend fans or boyfriend fans.

"In that case, you two can start preparing now. How about we revise it around episode 15?"

Director Nakazawa knew he had successfully conveyed his thoughts and hoped that both screenwriters would put in their best effort to write the new script.

As he listened to their conversation, his smile grew wider and wider.

"Go ahead and do it your way, lay the groundwork first, and then slowly develop the love story. Be careful that the love story doesn't come out too abruptly, and it has to be perfectly integrated with the plot of the Desire Grand Prix, without overshadowing the main story."

"Please rest assured, director, we will definitely do a good job."

Yamada Ichiro and Suzuki Nanako responded in unison, already starting to conceive the subsequent plot in their minds, thinking about how to make this love story more moving without affecting the progress of the main plot.

"Haha, I believe in your abilities."

Director Nakazawa nodded, then turned his gaze back to Yuu Genkawa and Toru Asakura, who were not far away.

At that moment, Asakura Toru was handing a bottle of water to Genkawa Yu, then stood beside him, looking up at him quietly.

Well, her undisguised love has a unique charm.

Even staff and managers can be affected by this emotion.

The sunlight shone on the two of them, giving them a golden glow.

Director Nakazawa looked at the two figures standing together, and a smile unconsciously crept onto his lips.

He firmly believes that his decision was correct.

Entering a new era, we must seek change and pursue new ideas.

He believes that with the addition of this love story, the series "Kamen Rider Fox" will become even more exciting.

"I'm really looking forward to the story you've written, and I'm also looking forward to Genkawa-kun and Asakura-san bringing us more surprises in the story."

"This is a win-win situation."

Yes.

Director Nakazawa glanced at the two screenwriters and silently added to himself...

I, Li Yi, am here to win twice.

Volume 3 I Am a Knight of the New Era: Chapter 70 Higuchi Enka: I Can Go Find Someone to Help Me (Two-in-One 5k)

The clock ticked, and the hands steadily pointed to 9:45 p.m. With Director Nakazawa's shout of "That's a wrap!", the last scene of the day for the "Kamen Rider Fox" crew finally came to an end.

Genkawa Yu raised his hand to rub his throbbing temples, then went into his lounge to change clothes and go home.

Just as he sat down, there was a knock on the door of the lounge.

"Kato, go take a look."

"Yes."

Kato Megumi pushed open the door, and the first thing she saw was Asakura Toru's delicate face.

"..."

They exchanged a glance but didn't greet each other. Kato Megumi quickly left the lounge and then closed the door after Asakura Toru went in.

"Yu?"

"It's you, Tou. How are you? Tired today?"

Genkawa asked with a smile, and the next moment, the girl pounced on him.

"Not tired."

Asakura Toru gently shook her head, nuzzling her cheek against his chest like a clingy kitten.

Seeing the girl's dependent look, Yuan Chuanyu smiled helplessly. He reached out and gently ruffled her hair, saying with a smile.

The two embraced, and then Yuu Genkawa thought of Akane Kurokawa's situation, so he decided to call her first.

Asakura Toru glanced at the name on her phone, but didn't react much. She simply continued to press her face against Genkawa Yu's neck.

"beep..."

The phone was answered after two rings, and Kurokawa Akane's clear voice immediately came through the receiver.

"Yu-kun? Are you done work? Aren't you coming back to keep me company?"

"Akane, I'm sorry, I finished work a little late today, and there was a bit of a problem on set. The script needs to be revised temporarily, so I might have to stay on set a little longer tonight and won't be able to come back to be with you."

Genkawa Yu casually made up a reason: he wanted to get home around eleven o'clock so that he could have both things done at the same time.

Upon hearing this, Akane Kurokawa's tone immediately dropped on the other end of the phone, but she didn't press for further details.

"I see... Tsukasa Kyu-li? Er. Okay then."

"Yu-kun, you should also take care to rest and not overwork yourself."

"Don't worry, I understand."

After hanging up the phone, Asakura Toru looked up at Genkawa Yu's profile; his expression was calm.

"Tou, I lied again. What do you think?"

"It's okay."

Asakura Toru reached out and hugged Genkawa Yu's neck, laughing as she said, "I'm a bad woman, a bad woman who seduces Yu into doing bad things."

"Haha, where did you see all this?"

"...Magazine."

The two embraced tightly, and the lounge fell into a brief silence. This tender moment lasted for about five minutes.

Soon, there was another knock on the door of the lounge.

"Who?"

"It's me, Nakazawa."

Genkawa Yu's expression faltered slightly. He released his arm from Asakura Toru's waist, as their current posture was far too intimate.

Their relationship has only been publicly announced in a small circle in front of Sato Masashi and Mayo Kazuto. The rest of the crew, including director Nakazawa, are unaware of it.

If Director Nakazawa were to catch them in the act, it would inevitably be somewhat embarrassing.

Asakura Toru instantly snapped out of her daze. She quickly sat up from Genkawa Yu's lap and subconsciously straightened her clothes.

Although the director was standing outside, the girl didn't seem too flustered, and her movements were unhurried.

When Genkawa Yu stood up, he called out to the door to explain.

"Director Nakazawa, please wait a moment, I'll be right there to open the door."
