Tokyo Sound

"But the Big Four studios have greater production power and are more likely to produce good films. If a good film is produced by the Big Four studios themselves, they will also promote it. The Adventurers meets these conditions. It has a good reputation, good box office, high performance by the actors, and is a Shochiku Oki Award-winning film. You are the lead actor and the No. 1, so you will at least be nominated this time."

"The teacher has a good eye and gave me a good script," said Yin Ze.

"You think too much. The old man loves watching movies and simply thought you could act, so he let you try. Because even if it's pork, it's not that easy to get."

Natsume Kenzo shook his head.

"If pushing resources hard really works, then these companies will definitely be the happiest. Unfortunately, relying solely on blood transfusions may not necessarily produce an artist that everyone likes. Most of these businesses lose money. So Toho only has one Masami Nagasawa now, and they are still obsessed with finding the next Masami Nagasawa."

The person who receives a blood transfusion should also be able to do what he wants and just lie down and wait for the blood to come. What should others be looking at? They can't be looking at the blood bank behind them.

"If we try to implement the newcomer award, we can get someone who doesn't deserve the title, but being the best is different. You need to have real skills, as there are so many eyes watching you," said Natsume Kenzo.

The Newcomer Award is indeed a good position that is easy to fill... In the last voice actor award, someone's situation was very special. He had to win the award, but there was no position for the time being. At that time, the organizing committee thought about putting him in the Newcomer Award, mainly because he had never won it before, so it was okay to fill in the gap, and he just happened to meet the maximum number of years required to be eligible.

Yes, the Rookie Award was also won by Matsuoka Yoshitsugu. Colleagues from the same company blocked the way to the Rookie Award twice. If it were someone else, even if they didn't say it, they would definitely feel unhappy. However, this is the bond between the Dragon God and cannot be broken.

Of course, this fantastic decision to reward newcomers was rejected as expected.

What kind of newcomer are you? He just won the Shunpo Newcomer Award! And when others received awards, they put their voice actor status first in the interviews after the event. How charming and dignified.

The organizing committee directly established a new influencer award, and then awarded the Toyama Award, which is usually given to senior seniors. They gave full face and would never let their own people who brought honor to the industry suffer injustice.

"From this point of view, I should be nominated for the Japanese Oscars," Yin Ze said. "The industry has its own rules. My agency is not in the Japanese film and entertainment industry, and I don't have any interests to exchange with them. From Shochiku's perspective, the film itself is a success by winning an award. It's very considerate of them to give me a nomination."

"You're right to think so. But you have to think about it. You've only acted in a few movies." Natsume Kenzo smiled. "Even if you count the minor roles, you've only been on the big screen six times so far, right?"

Ronin Kenshin: A dead extra who didn't live for more than a few minutes.

Little Forest: The fake male protagonist, actually just a supporting role who only appeared for a few minutes.

Woodpecker and Rain: One of the two male protagonists.

Hottie at the Bottom : The male supporting character.

The Boat Trip: The male protagonist.

Yokomichi Yoshinosuke: The male protagonist.

The only exception is Amazon, the web series.

"You are a latecomer, not a professional, so your speed of improvement is terrifying. The newspapers are not lying when they say you are a talented actor. If you look back at the golden age of local films in the last century, you won't find many people like you."

Natsume Kenzo spoke slowly.

"Japanese films are going downhill. Although there are occasional masterpieces, most of the time they are just one bad year after another. Similarly, the results of major awards are becoming less and less convincing. Isn't this a kind of consumption of the credibility of the awards? This world of fame and fortune is not only about fame and fortune, but also about real people who really want to promote the industry. As I just said, so many eyes are watching."

"Let it be." Yin Ze has been through a lot and now he is not easily surprised by fame or disgrace.

"Do you have suitable outfit?" Natsume Kenzo asked again.

"I have a suit." Yin Ze was referring to the high-end custom-made suit given by his uncle. But the epic skin was not suitable for daily use, so he had never worn it many times.

"The black one?" Natsume Kenzo remembered.

"Yeah." Yin Ze nodded.

"I'll give you a white set." Natsume Kenzo nodded, and said in a melodious tone, "Life is a rare opportunity to be decent."

"I can't take it for free." Yin Ze murmured.

"Then you can give me 5 more roast chickens. Also, please coax the old man more often." said Natsume Kenzo.

The two of them also walked towards the main hall. Now that they were here, they could put a coin in the wishing box.

……

At the end of the year, of course, we will summarize the gains and achievements of the previous year.

According to the Economic News, Japan's cinema revenue last year was around 2300 billion yen, up 6% from the previous year, a six-year high. It can be said to be a bumper year.

Among them, the box office of "Your Name" exceeded 210 billion yen, surpassing "Princess Mononoke", and it has already ranked second in the local box office list. And it has not yet been released, and it will grow a lot. In addition, there are many popular works such as "Shin Godzilla". Under the wave of movie watching, the real filming locations and prototype places have also attracted many tourists to visit. It is really a win-win situation.

For film practitioners, the annual awards season has begun again.

There are quite a few awards in the industry. Of course, people always pay more attention to the important mainstream awards.

The first one is naturally the Hochi Film Award. As the first film award independently held by the Sports News, it was established in 1976. It is also one of the major awards that was announced relatively early, and it can be regarded as the opening award.

After the shortlist was announced, people began to review and discuss the cast list.

Among the female actors, Aoi Yu, Ayase Haruka, and Komatsu Nana are all familiar faces, and Arimura Kasumi is also very good. There are also seniors like Miyazawa Rie and Yoshinaga Sayuri.

Among men, Abe Hiroshi, Odagiri Joe, and Fukuyama Masaharu are also common. Of course, there are a few that are not so common... For example, who is this Takizawa Satoru? Huh? I seem to have some impression of him?

Hiroaki Tsuchiya was stunned for a moment when he looked at the screenshots in the group and the numerical information on the official website.

The 41st Japan Hochi Film Awards, the list of nominees for Best Actor clearly states: Takizawa Satoru, followed by the movie "The Adventurers" in which he starred.

With information this accurate, it is impossible for there to be a duplicate name or a mistake.

Tsuchiya Hongliang's first reaction was not surprise or astonishment, but a little stunned.

Hochi Eiga, nomination for Best Actor?

My eldest brother?

Nominated?

Movie king?

Thunder suddenly came from out of nowhere.

This news began to spread rapidly in the audio-visual circle.

The presidents of all the big offices howled in unison with jealousy, and only Masao Eda was holding up the newspaper, beaming with joy and ecstasy. But soon, a strong sense of anxiety struck the boss.

I've been nominated... will I win? Actually, it's good if I don't win, but at this critical moment, I feel so disappointed if I can't make the final move.

So after the ecstasy, the leader felt like ants were crawling all over his body, he had no appetite, couldn’t sleep at night, he kept thinking about this, and couldn’t think about anything else.

In fact, this has become news that many people in the industry are paying attention to.

Due to the different market sizes and economic influences, artists have always been the ones to eat the rice of voice actors, but voice actors may not necessarily eat the rice of actors. However, Takizawa Satoru is the one who directly competes for the lunch boxes of actors and eats more than one, which is a bit fierce.

In order to expand the pie, voice actors must develop in multiple fields. They have been able to develop into idols and singers, but only Takizawa Satoru is taking the path of acting. He is the only one who feels most at ease. To be honest, the higher he goes now, the higher the ceiling of the voice actor industry will be.

Just like when everyone released a single, they would be dissed by professional singers. It is because of the paving and trial and error of many predecessors that the various projects of idol voice actors are possible. The obstacles for voice actors to debut as singers have also become much less.

At present, what Takizawa Satoru has done is extremely valuable to the industry. He has proved that voice actors can be actors, and they can do it well and act well. He has provided such a meaningful foundation.

It should be said that the bosses of various firms care more about the follow-up of this award than the nominees themselves.

As for fans, they only care about the career of the person they are promoting more than their boss. At this time, the film and television fan club even reached a cooperation with the remnants of the old era next door, that is, the voice pig group, and tried their best to support them. The Hochi Film Awards has a reader participation mechanism, that is, the judges can select the top readers' votes into the nominations.

Since someone has already nominated, the vote for the single person is purely out of enthusiasm and encouragement.

Everyone seemed to have returned to the tense period when they were competing for the newcomer award.

After a long, but actually only two weeks of waiting.

The 41st Japan Hochi Film Awards. The final results have been announced.

At the award ceremony, a man in a white suit took the award.

Chapter 124 Only Storm

The suit that Natsume Kenzo gifted as a gift was faster than expected. After measuring the size, it fits perfectly. The material, color and workmanship are all the best in the country, with the inherent rigor and formal style of Kasumigaseki. As a civil servant who often has to attend banquets and various social occasions, Natsume Kenzo is indeed familiar with this. In comparison, his uncle's Dark Star suit is more business-like.

After the holidays, Tokyo, which had been lazy due to the New Year atmosphere, slowly became busy again.

Asamiya Kazuki returned to the city with local specialties from her hometown, and made a special pot of delicious food to make up for the New Year's dinner she had with her big brother downstairs.

Yin Ze was the first person in the office to take his annual leave, but the annoying thing was that he was the last person to return to work. He had been trying to search for information about Takizawa's biological mother since the beginning of the year, and even visited her in person, but unfortunately, he had little success. Although Japan is not big, it has a huge population, and there is actually very little you can do with just a few fragmented memories that do not belong to you.

In addition, when preparing to go abroad, the passport and visa procedures also take time...Yin Ze doesn't think he will only be gone for 15 days, so he should get all the formalities completed.

Yin Ze has been busy with these things recently. Of course, he also knows that he has been nominated. Nomination is also a kind of shallow reward, so he talked with the crew and acquaintances, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. In fact, it is very easy to find a travel agency, but it is too black humor for a buddy to find a travel agency when he returns home.

And so, two weeks passed.

Yin Ze was out all day again. When he came back, he had a meal with the girl upstairs.

After dinner, at 8pm, Yin Ze was washing his motorcycle downstairs. The cell phone he left in the room rang. Asamiya Kazuki, who was washing the pot, wiped her hands on her apron, took the cell phone and walked out to the corridor and shouted, "Your call."

"Who hit me?" Yin Ze asked.

"It's a phone number I don't recognize," Asamiya Kazuki said. "It's not in your phone book."

"Please help me answer it. It's probably another attempt to trick me into buying a house. Really, am I really rich?" Yin Ze was applying shower gel to the blond Dayang.

So Asamiya Kazuki answered the phone, said a few words, and then ran downstairs and put the phone into the handsome face of the car washer, whose hands were full of water and he had no space to use.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Takizawa Satoru?" the person on the phone said, "I am a staff member of the Hochi Shimbun and the Hochi Film Awards Jury—"

After a brief communication, the contact ended.

The car washer continued massaging the motorcycle and signaled to the girl to move the phone away from his ear.

Facing Asamiya Kazuki's curious, surprised, and sparkling eyes, Yin Ze said simply, "I won the award, the best actor."

"Are you sure?" Asamiya Kazuki was obviously nervous and wavering.

"Probably not." Yin Ze smiled and said, "Whether it's true or not, it will be published in the newspaper anyway."

Asamiya Kazuki did not cheer immediately, but nodded cautiously... Mainly because the winner was so calm and composed, she was also affected and doubted the authenticity of the news for a while. She hesitated to speak, but finally went back to wash the pot.

The next day, after seeing the news on her mobile phone, Asamiya Kazuki finally lost her composure. She put on her slippers, hurried downstairs, and knocked frantically on her eldest brother's door downstairs.

Yin Ze woke up, not because of the knock on the door, but because his cell phone was ringing. He first opened the door to prevent his little sister from staying outside in the cold wind, and then answered the phone.

As expected, they all came to congratulate me, including people I know and people I just met.

How many people would not be interested in the best actor award given by the mainstream after going through the entertainment industry and the world of fame and fortune? Aren’t most people in the entertainment industry just trying to gain fame?

Yin Ze, who stayed at home, could not fully feel the wave that rolled towards him. In just a few seconds, he quickly became a hot search and trend on the daily Twitter.

Something was triggered, and information came pouring in like snowflakes.

The leadership team in the voice actor industry was greatly shocked.

Takizawa Satoru is a graduate of the Japanese Broadcasting Research Institute and is signed to a voice actor agency. He debuted as a voice actor and has been active in the first-tier for many years since his debut. He is undoubtedly a top-tier voice actor. It can be said that he is a legitimate member of the family!

Who could have thought that there would be a day when voice actor = movie actor?

The facts are before our eyes!

An unprecedented industry feat!

This road has really been broken through!

Faced with this unprecedented hot topic, the voice actor magazine responded at the fastest speed. While contacting the person himself for an interview, it also started to rush to write the manuscript and set up a special feature.

Professionals in the film industry don't think there's anything wrong with it, because there are many non-professional actors. What's more, Takizawa Satoru has won the Junpo Newcomer Award, and there's no need to explain the authority of Junpo. In other words, Takizawa Satoru is a filmmaker who happens to be a voice actor as well.

The most excited ones are the fans. Now you all know how hard my brother works!

Before the final results were announced, even though there was no Fans Club, the single pushers and the film and television fan clubs worked together to push someone into the second place of the readers' votes. Although he later slipped to fourth place, it also proved the intentions of both parties. In this regard, the single push representative Xiong Xinan sighed: I didn't expect that the group member's double senior diplomatic ambassador could actually play a role in the title!

This news spread among the netizens like a virus.

The only drawback is that, despite the importance of the Hochi Film Awards, the awards ceremony is not live - only the Japan Academy Awards is fully televised, which is one of the advantages of the popularity of the Japan Academy Awards.

……

"Didn't we agree to play games together?" Tomoki Yoshida frowned, feeling stressed.

……

"You know, his only TV series is Amazon. I have known him for a long time. This guy is incredibly talented. We completed the adult Kamen Rider project together. We also communicated frequently on the set. I think he can have a good chemistry with special effects. I can't wait to see him put on a new suit again..." Shinkura Shirakura, who made an outstanding investment, said this in a casual chat with his colleagues.

……

"Is this true or false?" Kigami Yoshiharu turned his head and asked.

"It's authentic." said Yasuhiro Takemoto.

"We have to find a way to keep his talent in animation," Yoshiharu Kigami was convinced.

……

"Could it be that he would really use this method to bypass the academic track and become a famous alumnus?" Onishikawasuke, who was reading a book and newspaper in the office, fell into deep thought.

……

"Have the autographs in my house really appreciated in value?" Nagasaki Yukinu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry as he adjusted the recording equipment and looked at his phone.
