Tokyo Sound

"Yeah, I calculated the time to come here."

"Come earlier, maybe you can get into the studio. You know, I'm an important supporting actor in the show. The producer will still give me some face by showing people around."

"Forget it, I won't trouble you. Although there is a difference between voice actors and actors, the atmosphere on the set is similar. Besides, I came to visit the set to find you, and I don't want to go in and play." Sakura Ayane waved her hand indifferently.

"Okay, let's go have dinner." Yin Ze suggested, "I'm craving for ramen."

"Okay, hehe, I haven't been there for a while." Sakura Ayane agreed.

The two chatted and laughed as they walked to the other end.

At sunset, the high hanging street lights gradually light up, and the street is very long.

The city itself is heartless and without the smell of fireworks. The stories happening in the corners of the streets and alleys are the final pouring.

Chapter 67: The Blond's Determination

"There seems to be some changes on the set today." Yin Ze wiped the plain glasses he used for acting with the corner of his clothes. Without the cover of eye props, his sharp eyes swept across the entrance and exit of the studio, like a bald eagle ready for hunting.

"No, isn't it the same as usual?" Arimura Kasumi raised her head from the script page. At first, she felt quite stressed because the supporting actor did not bring a script every day but made no mistakes. She would take a small piece of paper to review from time to time. Now she is relieved and just holds the book to read.

Yuta Doi passed by and saw this scene.

During the break, the male supporting actor was reading a book and the female leading actor was working on the script, just like Tsubota in the movie was waiting at the podium and Sayaka was doing exercises beside him, exactly the same, the sense of drama was really harmonious... It would have been more appropriate if the male supporting actor was not reading Weekly Bunshun at this time.

He actually read gossip magazines next to Xiaohua. Geniuses are usually free.

"Lunch is downstairs." The stagehand answered the phone.

"I'll go with you to lift it." Yin Ze responded immediately, like a sea eagle showing its sharp claws to catch fish.

“Thank you so much for being so positive every time.”

"We are all in the same group, so we can help each other if we can."

Yin Ze and others went downstairs to move the box of lunch boxes. Sure enough, their hunch was right. It was different from the previous one. It was a high-end business meal from a nearby hotel. The packaging was all designed, with one layer of staple food and two layers of dishes. It was made of luxurious ingredients, exquisite meat and vegetables, and yogurt. It shouldn't be called a crew lunch box, but a conference meal instead.

This meal is on par with Toei's. Both companies are truly big names in the film industry.

The staff came to get their meals one by one. Yin Ze approached the assistant director without saying a word. The latter pouted and gave up the main dish out of defiance.

"My play is almost over, and the assistant director's card skills still have room for improvement." Yin Ze waved his hand.

The assistant director felt that revenge was hopeless and shook his head in frustration.

"Oh, today's lunch box is very good." Arimura Kasumi opened the lid, his eyes shining slightly.

"With delicious rewards, I'm more motivated to work." Yin Ze moved his chopsticks and started digging.

"By the way, teacher." Arimura Kasumi used the address from the drama, "I don't think I've ever met your agent."

"My 'agent' is in a quantum entangled state. Generally speaking, I am responsible for myself." Yin Ze sighed.

"Is there such a big difference between voice actors and artists?" Arimura Kasumi wondered, as she had never seen such a situation before.

"The workplace is amazing, isn't it?" Yin Ze inserted a tube into Yogurt.

"Haha, if you think about it carefully, the teacher's scenes were all on set, and he basically never went out." Arimura Kasumi smiled, "It's become a sitcom when it comes to you."

"My film and television career seems to be mostly sitcoms." Yin Ze recalled that it was not until he started acting in special effects that he gained a lot of steps.

“By the way, I heard that the role of Tomoe Yukishiro in ‘Ronin Kenshin’ was played by a staff member of the crew at that time?” Arimura Kasumi asked again.

"Yes." The makeup artist suddenly said, "It's me."

"Is it such a coincidence?!" Arimura Kasumi was surprised.

"Unfortunately, these are the results of careful pursuit." The makeup artist sister smiled peacefully.

"With this behind-the-scenes footage, when we shoot the sequel and Tomoe Yukishiro actually appears, it would be a shame if you weren't the one responsible for his makeup." Yin Ze nodded.

The makeup artist sister couldn't help but frown when she heard this. She put makeup on me from behind, and then watched me and Bai Yueguang fight. Wow, just thinking about that kind of thing makes my stomach hurt!

"My mission is almost completed, and the rest is up to you." Yin Ze encouraged.

In Japan, except for special circumstances, the first person listed in the cast is the main actor, and the others are supporting actors. The supporting actors are also determined by the first lead actor. Unless there is an intention to bring in newcomers, it is difficult for two artists with very different qualities to become the first lead and the first supporting actor.

That's why Kashiwa Ippei was amazed at someone's co-starring with Yakusho Kanji. Yakusho Kanji thought Okita Shuji was a talented young director, so he wanted to support him and took the initiative to step down and join. And Okita Shuji thought someone had extraordinary potential, so he took the initiative to invite him, which made that rare event happen.

One should share the honor and disgrace of the work and take responsibility.

Film and television actors are very dependent on market response and audience popularity. If they fail a few times and are unfortunately labeled as box office/ratings poison, then it will be a disaster. They will be downgraded and have fewer scenes, and their roles will be relegated from the prime time in the evening to the late night time slot.

"I will definitely try my best." Arimura Kasumi said seriously. As an actor, she can tell whether a film is good or not. She really feels that this film is very important to her and dare not slack off.

"I hope we can have another chance to work together in the future." Arimura Kasumi said sincerely, "I feel at ease acting with the teacher."

He never brings a script, has a very high one-take rate, is humble and humorous, and speaks well. He is talented, but not a typical entertainer, has no tricks, and is easy to get along with. There should be few male actors like him.

"Okay." Yin Ze replied happily.

"I hope we'll have the opportunity to work together again in the future." The makeup artist said expectantly.

"...Okay." Yin Ze touched his head and answered hesitantly.

After lunch, the Corridor of Life replenished its energy and successfully finished the last scene. At this point, Yin Ze can basically declare that he is off work, and at most there will be some follow-up shooting and recording.

"This is a performance that exceeded our expectations." Yuta Doi smiled and applauded.

"Everyone is very professional. Fortunately, I didn't fall behind." Yin Ze took the bouquet of flowers. He was a straight man and didn't know where to put the flowers when he got home. He turned his eyes around and handed them to the makeup artist sister, saying nicely, "Our cooperation has been completed again. You should take this bouquet of flowers."

"...Oh my God." The makeup artist covered her mouth, she was moved.

"Ms. Honzo Masumi, we'll see each other again if we're lucky." Yin Ze learned the name from the employee badge on someone else's chest. He said goodbye to the others and left.

"It's time for me to go too." The makeup artist sister is about to embark on a new journey.

"You can't leave, you still have to put on makeup for others." Yuta Doi hesitated for two seconds, but decided to complain.

……

Recently, the single push group has been very quiet. The main reason is that the group leader, who is the most calculating and good at balancing, has suffered a great blow on the Internet and even been infected with an electronic virus. He has become abnormal and occasionally a few disordered characters pop up in the chat, which makes people worry about his mental state.

The city's strange phlegm's master unfortunately fell, and now he has returned from the wild and is rebuilding the group level. A Wei and Dong Ge maintain their daily lives, and even without a group leader, it is still a thriving trend.

"Heisei's Kongming: Ha! My perfect guide to P5 is finally out! Whether it's the maze, the affection line, or even the layout and copywriting, they are all the most exquisite--"

"Brother Dong: You spoke very normally today. Has your mind recovered?"

"Stir-fried Sweet Potatoes: This guide is a little late, isn't it? Most people have almost finished it."

"Heisei's Kong Ming: I devoted a whole month to making this, not to prove how great I am, but to tell haters that I will definitely get back what I lost. This is a matter of attitude!"

"Urban Strange Phlegm: Sometimes I admire him..."

"Kong Ming of Heisei: Thank you for your hard work during my retreat. I'm sure that Big Brother must have done something new during this period. Bring it up quickly. I need to replenish my energy for the solo push."

"Brother Dong: Amazon has finished updating, and NHK is broadcasting the animation of "Dragon's Dentist". Hurry up and catch up before I spoil it."

"Austrian Boyfriend: Why hasn't there been any news about Bandai's face sculpture yet?"

"Tomurabi: Isn't the biggest thing that the eldest brother's agent has changed? Matsuoka mentioned in the radio that the original agent in charge of them has resigned."

"Heisei's Kong Ming: Is this true?"

"Brother Dong: There has been little business recently, and there have been no activities. Most importantly, there has been no update on the final punch record. This means that he has not even played the game. What on earth is he doing?"

"Austrian boyfriend: Are you filming a movie?"

"Shinjuku Ex-Girlfriend: Hoho, I knew it would be the victory of the Film and Television Fan Club."

While chatting in the group, Hiroaki Tsuchiya uploaded the invincible strategy he had worked so hard on. In order to preserve his morale, he didn't even finish catching up on Amazon on time. What a sin.

The one called Jinshan Langzi is not ordinary, not an ordinary black fan. Aliang felt that just like his fate with "King of Idols 2", that person must have a special experience. Let's see what he has done.

Click into the other party’s media channel.

"The Last Fist 5 Kanto Video Game Tournament? What is this?"

Tsuchiya Hiroaki was not an expert at this, but remembering that Awei's last punch was pretty good, he @ed him in the group.

"Grand Commander of Dongwu: Well, this is a competition organized by the game officials. If you want to sign up, you can fill in your information at the designated major arcades in the Kanto region. After the local competition, the winner will go to the venue to compete in the main competition. There are rank requirements for registration, and the prize money is not bad. It is considered a relatively popular event in the current fighting circle."

"Brother Dong: Didn't Ah Wei once compete in the Cloud King? Why don't you give it a try and bring honor to the group?"

"Grand Commander of Dongwu: We may be able to get a place in the arcade preliminaries, but those who can enter the main competition must be professional players."

"Brother Dong: Big Brother is a technical anchor after all, will you join in the fun?"

"Grand Commander Dongwu: Recently, he has been busy with special effects and NHK animation, and he has also changed his agent. Judging from his busyness, he may really be filming a movie. How could he go out to fight offline when he is so busy?"

In the office in Yoyogi.

Master Yin, a platinum member of the Battle Night Arcade, received a promotional message on his mobile phone.

"Winning three rounds will get you two months of membership for free?"

Someone stood up and said, this is just free wool.

I just finished work, so I wanted to combine work and rest. I stayed in the snack area for a while, then pushed my red-haired kid to the supermarket to see what vegetables to buy and take home.

……

"Move it a little to the left. OK, don't move, keep it fixed. Stick it on." Jin Shandao listened to the shop owner's instructions and hung the promotional banners used in the upcoming competition at the entrance of the arcade. The red banners looked festive.

"That's right. These days when I come over from get off work in Akihabara, I can watch offline games." said Kazuhiko Yanbe.

"Don't you want to sign up?" Jinshan asked.

"There are professional players on the night of fierce fighting. I will just be giving away points if I join the battle." Yanbu Heyan waved his hands, "Let's just watch you show off your skills. Dao Ge will definitely fight, right?"

"Well, it's so convenient, there's no reason not to participate." Jin Shandao narrowed his eyes slightly, "... Kazuhiko, I have a feeling that this may be my farewell battle."

"What does this mean?" Yanbe Heyan was shocked.

“Although it’s not on a large scale, it’s also a rare competition. All the strong players from Tokyo will come, and I can also have a professional game.” Jin Shandao’s eyes were filled with fighting spirit.

"I understand, I understand. Then I will go back to my hometown to date my eldest sister-in-law." Yanbe Heyan smiled happily, with a look of satisfaction. "Brother Dao, it's good to go back, but don't cut off contact. Come to Tokyo when you have time. Do you prefer a Western or Japanese wedding?"

"Your thoughts are very unconventional." Jin Shandao said lightly.

"Brother Dao, what are your expectations for the competition results?" Yanbe Kazuhiko asked again.

"My target to defeat has always been that man." Jin Shandao stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky with a deep look in his eyes.

"Invincible master? Will he come?" Yanbe Heyan scratched his head.

"It's okay if he doesn't come. He and I have joined a gaming group, and we can also make online battles in the game." Jin Shandao was not worried.

"...Wait a minute. What you mean is that you actually have the opportunity to contact him for a sparring match at any time?" Yanbe Kazuhiko discovered the blind spot.

"That's the theory." Jin Shandao folded his hands. "He even recommended my media channel during the live broadcast, saying it's very suitable for beginners to watch. I even gained some attention because of it."

"Then why are you so gloomy everyday? I thought you were a tragic hero who honed his martial arts to perfection but couldn't even fight to free himself!" Yanbe Kazuhiko said he was fooled, "So you have a way to communicate? Then why don't you fight? Isn't it a psychological trauma? I'm so disappointed!"

"I'm just polishing the secret of the decisive battle." Jin Shandao's forehead was filled with black lines, and his fists were raised.

"What routines and techniques are there? Have you learned them?" Yanbe Kazuhiko was curious.

"It has been successful." Jin Shandao said lightly.

In a trance, I didn’t know whether it was because the sunlight was too dazzling or my eyes were blurry.

Yanbu Kazuhiko glanced at Dao Ge's side and saw a black shadow standing in the same posture.

"?"

Yanbe Kazuhiko rubbed his eyes and when he looked again, the black shadow had disappeared like an illusion.

Chapter 68: Unrivaled

It was an ordinary morning, with washed clothes fluttering outside the window, the weather forecast host was beautiful and charming, and the tofu pudding in the bowl was fresh and appetizing. It was a rest day after a busy day, and time was so comfortable.

"Such nice weather is perfect for wasting time." Yin Ze touched the hair on his calves in a Buddhist manner, feeling the tranquility and peace of mind.

"I'm going to visit the University of Tokyo with Kiyoka," said Asamiya Kazuki.

"Why?" Yin Ze was puzzled.

"Repeating a grade is a boring process. She wants to go around the campus and strengthen her determination to study," replied Asamiya Kazuki.

"I see. Dongda University accepts outsiders to visit, so you can just go." Yin Ze took out a cafeteria meal card like a boss and said calmly, "You can eat there too, just be casual, use my card."

"Is there any place worth visiting on campus?" asked Asamiya Kazuki.
