Tokyo Sound

As for animation, as long as the reading is not too outrageous, it usually won't be blamed, and the audience's attention is on the pictures and plot.

"Okay, I understand." said Kawamura Genki.

"Oh, remember you don't need to tell your colleagues about this." Oku Shoji took a sip of tea in the office.

"Why?" Kawamura Genki wondered. It probably wouldn't matter whether people in the industry knew about this inside story or not.

"Haha, Toei knew it early, but did they tell me?" Oku Shoji laughed twice without emotion.

……

Sure enough, the premonition worked.

I haven't even been working for a month and I'm already trying to split me up and do double duty. Could it be that just because my name is Cheng-ge, I've mastered the sacred separation knife technique?

Yin Ze sighed and ended today's art meditation.

Senior Brother Natsume sent me an invitation for dinner.

Last time, Yin Ze wanted to eat at the civil servants' cafeteria but failed. Although the senior brother refused, he still asked if he wanted to eat there again after get off work. He promised to eat there next time, and he really came next time. Yin Ze had only felt this kind of seriousness beyond that of ordinary people in the senior brother and Matsuoka Yoshitsugu.

The two met in an izakaya that can be found everywhere on the street.

Natsume Kenzo was wearing a classic black suit, with no expression on his face, sitting against the wall. Under the warm yellow light, his bitter face was even more obvious, like a hardcore middle-aged man who had been carrying a mortgage for 30 years, his wife wanted a divorce, his daughter was rebellious and disobedient, his father was seriously ill and needed care, and his company was facing a layoff crisis due to poor management, and was only a few steps away from collapse.

To be honest, every time Yin Ze sees his senior brother, he wants to advise him that "the most important thing in life is to be happy."

"This restaurant is quite old. I often ate here when I was in school," said Natsume Kenzo. "Sometimes when I get off work late, I'll walk a long way to have a midnight snack here."

"That's a real treasure shop." Yin Ze likes to explore shops. "I'm going to ride my bike so I won't drink. Brother, please feel free to do as you please."

"I was just drinking soda." Natsume Kenzo called the waiter.

The transparent and slender glass bottle, the retro label, and the cool and refreshing carbonic acid make it clear at first glance that this is a classic replica of the Showa period.

The dishes were served quickly. There was no big fish or meat, just some affordable and common dishes.

"You've finished filming your part in that college entrance exam movie, right?" Natsume Kenzo picked up the bottle and drank. A bottle of ordinary drink actually made his always serious face show a bit of relaxation and comfort. He was like a summer boy who was satisfied after playing with water and drinking iced juice.

"Yes, it's been finished for a while. I guess it's now in the post-production stage, preparing for the release." Yin Ze was eating.

"Then I'll be waiting for the premiere." Natsume Kenzo smiled.

"You've made me nervous." Yin Ze shook his head.

"Have you finished taking pictures of the Easter eggs? That's what the old man is more concerned about." asked Natsume Kenzo.

"Of course, the total time is less than 10 seconds, so how could there be any mistakes?" Yin Ze said. With the attention of the dean, the crew's application for filming at the school gate and inside the school was approved at the speed of light. The director also praised the supporting actor for his reliable connections.

"Haha, the old man has spent his whole life studying at his desk and writing books by lamplight. His writing style is sharp and hides pain. He really can't be called an interesting person. I didn't expect that in the few years before he stepped down and retired, he was a bit like a mischievous boy." Natsume Kenzo chuckled.

"In fact, the teacher has always been a person with a lot of jokes..." Yin Ze, who was volunteered to be the "most beautiful face" weapon for the foreign school, said what was in his heart, "He usually watches Naruto."

"He did some things well in his life and failed in others. Now that he has a head full of white hair, I hope he can let go of his passion and regrets and enjoy his old age. People like this old man deserve a happy old age." Natsume Kenzo said softly.

"It would be great to say these words in person." Yin Ze also smiled.

"Some people in the Ministry of Education secretly say that I'm a traditional blockhead. How can a blockhead say such affectionate and embarrassing words in front of an old man who is like a father? I feel uncomfortable." Natsume Kenzo snorted.

“By the way, after I left the crew, I joined another animated film, also produced by Toho,” said Yin Ze.

"It's normal. In the Japanese film industry, it would be strange if you didn't meet Toho." Natsume Kenzo also ate vegetables.

"The producer over there wants me to play the leading male role." Yin Ze said, "I wonder if he wants to save my senior brother's face and ask for a small favor. And I definitely can't let my senior brother owe me a favor in vain."

"It's okay." Natsume Kenzo said nonchalantly, "Mr. Oku is not a young man who just entered the workplace. How can a role make me owe him anything? I just want to show my intention to make friends. Besides... hehe, maybe he really wants to make friends with you."

"Me?" Yin Ze has a full understanding of himself. I only eat the expensive lunch boxes of his crew.

"With Toho's ability, it's easy to create stars, not to mention people with extremely high talents. He's still greedy for your piece of fat meat." Natsume Kenzo said, "The circle is not short of temptation, lies, and dreams. Many trainees have been gnawed clean by the bosses under the pretext of being righteous. There are countless artists who have gone astray and fallen. The rules here have evolved over hundreds of years. They are guaranteed to arouse desires and magnify human nature. There's no fear that they won't take the bait. I'm here to filter out those nonsense for you."

"Brother, you're worrying too much. I don't have any worldly desires." Yin Ze explained.

"Indeed, you are not interested in many things." Natsume Kenzo agreed, "Too much desire is not good, but having no desire is also dangerous. Do you know what is better than saving a life?"

"What?" Yin Ze asked.

"Save your life." Natsume Kenzo said lightly.

The izakaya is bustling with noise and people are toasting each other. Hard-working people are enjoying their rare rest time, drinking and chatting happily, and the air is filled with the atmosphere of home.

However, at the table of two literature students against the wall, their conversation stopped and there was silence for a few seconds.

"There's nothing profound about this sentence. You don't have to think too much about it." Natsume Kenzo spoke again, "After studying literature for a long time, I like to

;2 I am creating troubles for myself, so I stopped writing books and switched to stamping books - because this way, it is often others who are troubled instead of me. "

"This original intention is very convincing." Yin Ze nodded.

"I don't want my fate to be controlled by people who are neither loving, smart, nor kind... No one paid attention to the roars I wrote, so I took action myself and entered the officialdom, but that's all." Natsume Kenzo picked up the soda, felt the coolness of the bottle with his palm, and closed his eyes slightly. "Teacher Onishi does hope that you can stay in school in the future, but he doesn't want you to continue to maintain a certain sense of existence."

"After graduation, many people want to return to being students because it's wonderful," said Natsume Kenzo. "And the old man just thought so."

"It's that simple?"

"It's that simple."

"It's really Mr. Onishi's style." Yin Ze sighed.

"It's more comfortable to chat with you. Not only can I tell you the truth, but I can also say awkward things." Natsume Kenzo stretched slightly, "Let's go back to the previous matter. If it is a good work, of course you can accept it. Because you have the ability to complete it... The most feared are those who are incompetent but mysteriously confident, such as the parachuted congressmen this time."

"I now understand why my senior brother always has a gloomy face. I used to think it was because he was forced to get married, but it turns out that he was just tired from working hard." Yin Ze confessed.

"Haha, the staff cafeteria is not open to the public." Natsume Kenzo still remembered, "But I can treat you to a meal."

Then, the two soda bottles clinked together.

Chapter 75: Report on the matter or call on the phone

After a little consideration, Yin Ze agreed to the audition. Firstly, he had not yet won the Best Male Voice Actor Award, and to win the award, he must have a leading role. Secondly, it would not hurt to give it a try. Since he was here, he would already be working on this project regardless of success or failure.

Makoto Nido then reported the only candidate he had.

Kawamura Genki was very happy. He waved his hand and said, "Let's go for the audition tomorrow."

The recording studio I booked looked familiar. It was the same place as the one used for "Dragon Dentist". The equipment and decoration of this place were more upscale than ordinary sound studios, and it was often seen in the behind-the-scenes footage of blockbuster movies. I still remember the torture from Brother Anno on the console.

“I don’t think I need to introduce myself…” Yin Ze stood in front of the microphone, holding the script he had just received a few days ago.

"Of course, let's not play around, just come directly." Kawamura Genki gestured.

The screen starts to scroll the movie screen. Unlike the quarterly series that are tight on schedule and only have line backgrounds and stick figures interacting with each other, the picture in front of us is already quite complete. The background has been colored and polished, and it only lacks a little embellishment from post-production photography. The characters are also line drawings supervised by the bosses, but they have not been colored yet.

Master Yin also started his career as a voice actor as an extra, and he had even recorded in front of a black screen. His main focus was to practice performance without props and empty empathy. It is rare to come across such a complete picture - it is worthy of me, the painting is really good.

However, just before entering the audio track, Yin Ze suddenly said, "Wait a minute."

"What's wrong? Does your voice need some adjustment?" Kawamura Genki asked immediately.

"No, I'll just take a look at this card." Yin Ze walked around the microphone and went to the screen. He took a closer look, then wiped it with his sleeve and said, "I thought there was a flaw in the background painting, but it turned out to be a spot. It's okay, let's continue."

"Since you put so much effort into your work, how could your understanding of the script be low?" Nido Makoto sighed, thinking it was worth his three visits to the teacher, this was really the right choice.

"..." Kawamura Genki was angry.

"Okay, let's officially begin." Makoto Nidu nodded.

Recalibrate the timeline, and the light indicating recording will light up.

The voice came slowly and the sound quality was like the bright moon shining through the pines, clear and bright.

The story unfolds in an instant.

"I clearly had the dream, but I can't remember it. It's just that I've been looking for something, looking for someone."

"That day, when the meteor fell, it was like a scene in a dream. I just thought the scenery was so beautiful."

"...I have some impression of that place. I just accidentally remembered the news from three years ago. So, is this all just my imagination?"

Kawamura Genki nodded as he listened. I see, he is indeed the most notable person in the industry. When we usually communicate, I just think his voice is a little nice. But when I really get into the state and use the skills, I can intuitively feel his solid foundation and unique voice conditions.

A few lines ended quickly.

"Is there anything you want to modify?" Yin Ze turned around and asked.

"Where is the director?" Kawamura Genki respects the creative ideas of the main creators and will of course give suggestions, but professional matters should be left to professionals to discuss.

"Although Taki-kun is a handsome boy, his voice is too handsome now." Makoto Nido said, "Taki's character is not a playboy. On the contrary, he often fights with others. Let's lower his image, return to reality, and recreate it in the direction of an ordinary high school boy."

"Is this the state of daily conversation? OK." Yin Ze nodded.

There is not much time to think, just pause for a few seconds and continue.

"It's not easy for me to come to see you. You are so far away."

"You, you actually came to me when I didn't even know you. Of course I didn't recognize you."

"In order not to forget after waking up, we wrote each other's names on the palms of our hands—"

"I wanted to tell you that no matter where you are in this world, I will definitely come to see you again."

Kawamura Genki followed the tactics and retreated.

I still underestimated the ability of top voice actors. I didn't expect that such a unique voice could be compressed. Although it is still clear, it has a secular sticky tone, and the tone is more real. To be honest, it is very close to the state of normal speaking, but it is not the state of the voice actor's real speaking.

So this is purely based on acting skills.

At the same time, this section of dialogue is a relatively important part in the play that emphasizes emotions. The male voice actor maintained a balance between the intensity of the emotions and the standards required by the director, and accurately grasped the balance of the performance.

It is amazing to achieve such results, and it is also shocking to complete it in such a short time.

How long have you only had the script?

How long does it take to get feedback?

If you put yourself in his shoes, his adaptability and performance skills are really scary and horrible, and he's not even thirty years old.

Is he really a genius!

"How about this version?" Yin Ze asked again.

"Well, it feels a little off." Makoto Nido said, holding his hands and tilting his head, "It's like a feather brushing against an itch. The direction is right, but the strength still needs to be adjusted. Think of another way and make some adjustments."

"Isn't this enough?" Kawamura Genki was full of admiration. The director's requirements for his work were so strict.

"I just said it casually. What if it can force out more surprises?" Makoto Nido covered the microphone with his hand and said in a low voice.

"..." Kawamura Genki was angry.

Yin Ze naturally didn't hear the whispers, but it didn't matter. He had been the second party for many years and was used to adjustments. Fortunately, he had already reserved room for improvement. He put in 90% of his effort at this time, and then put in 100% of his effort for the third time. According to the rules, after three requests and three resignations, the plan should be adopted. Anno's brother was a special case, and it even made people suspect that the adjustments he said were just a simple attempt to cheat the plan.

As expected, after the full power was presented, the director and producer both showed happy smiles as if they had gotten an advantage.

This is evidence of successful prediction.

"Good, very good, this performance is really good." Kawamura Genki felt that he had learned another trick from the director.
