Chapter 206 What independent director

After "Lucky" was broadcast, the audience in the screening room applauded.

It is a very good short film. The audience said that it has all the elements that a successful film should have: concept and plot. Although the ending feels a bit rushed, it is already a very good film.

Some of the reviewers who watched silently gave this movie high marks in their hearts.

After the movie ended, Tetsuya Iwai appeared and began to answer some questions from the audience and held a discussion.

Seeing the audience's enthusiasm for this film, he felt sincerely happy.

He re-shot and re-edited "Lucky" to increase its duration. He is confident that it will impress the audience even more than when it was screened on campus.

After the discussion, by observing the expressions of several audience members who were obviously reviewers, he knew that his work must have a high score in their hearts, so he breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart.

He unfolded the film schedule in his hand, glanced up and down on it, and then his eyes rested on the words "Looking Back Suddenly".

The screening started at four o'clock in the afternoon, and Tetsuya Iwai felt a comparison in his heart. He wanted to see if this talented screenwriter in the TV drama industry could still be as strong in the film field.

"Don't underestimate the movie..." Tetsuya Iwai muttered.

By one o'clock in the afternoon, Kei Fujiwara had watched four movies, one feature film and three short films, which made his head feel a little swollen.

Originally, Kei Fujiwara was a standard commercial film lover and liked to watch "Looking for a Cat"-style movies. However, due to his lack of director experience and not being used for commercial purposes, his personal films tended to be unrestrained and less entertaining. Although there were some good films,

Looks very tired.

In comparison, the movie "Lucky" by Tetsuya Iwai that I watched at the school festival was much better. Although it was still a bit immature, I could tell that the movie had rules to follow and was both entertaining and in-depth. It was worthy of being from an academy.

Although he is young, he is very skilled in technology.

After another two years of training, if he is given a good script, he may be able to make a good movie. Fujiwara Kei thought to himself, and he suddenly became passionate about talents.

Ohno Nagaharu also walked out of the screening room, rubbed his roots, touched his stomach and said, "I'm hungry, let's go have lunch."

"There is a rice bowl restaurant nearby and it tastes good," Kei Fujiwara said.

Kei Fujiwara is now considered a semi-gourmet. Under the guidance of Nobu Satoshi Takagi, he has eaten all over half of Tokyo. Nobu Satoshi Takagi just took him to eat at the nearby Donburi restaurant last month. Kei Fujiwara plans to film "Lonely"

Used in the second season of "Gourmet".

As Inokashira Goro is the most powerful store-exploring blogger in this era, the stores he visits will become popular tourist attractions the next day.

Therefore, although "The Lonely Gourmet" has ended, the TV station always receives letters from various stores, hoping that the program team can come to their stores to film the second season.

"The Lonely Gourmet" has not yet planned to shoot a second season, mainly due to insufficient manpower. In addition to the filming of the Moon and Nine dramas, there is no manpower available to shoot another night drama. Therefore, Fujiwara Kei is also considering and producing recently.

bureau cooperation for joint filming.

Kei Fujiwara and Nagaharu Ohno went to a nearby rice bowl restaurant and sat at a table in the corner. Nagaharu ordered pork cutlet rice bowl and Kei Fujiwara ordered eel rice.

At this time, a woman's shoulder bag was placed on the table next to Fujiwara Kei. Fujiwara Kei subconsciously turned his head and looked around, only to see a woman with a very good temperament doing it. She looked to be thirty-six or seventeen years old, but she took very good care of herself.

Kei Fujiwara glanced at her body. She was wearing European luxury brands from head to toe. The bag on the table alone was the price of a car. Only the leather shoes on her feet could not tell the brand.

However, according to Kei Fujiwara’s experience, you should wear more expensive private custom-made clothes.

This outfit felt out of place for this small rice bowl restaurant, but the woman ordered the beef rice with green onion very familiarly, and she was able to chat casually with the clerk. She must have eaten here often.

After a while, a man also walked into the rice bowl restaurant. The man sat opposite and looked around, "Is this the best restaurant in the entire port area as you said?"

"Yes, do you want to try it? Caviar is much more delicious than kaiseki cuisine."

"Haha, please recommend it to me, Miss Kamiya," the middle-aged man said.

"Specialist Shirai?" Kei Fujiwara heard the voice and called out.

The man turned around and saw Kei Fujiwara, stunned for a moment, then stood up and said, "Teacher Fujiwara."

Fujiwara Kei smiled and shook hands with him.

The man’s name is Shirai Eiji, and he is a senior director of the film and television production company Matsunichi Pictures, which is also the film and television company responsible for the production and distribution of "White Night Walk".

The two met not long ago. Kei Fujiwara sold the film and television adaptation rights of "White Night Walk" and when he went to Matsunichi Film Festival, in view of Kei Fujiwara's current status in the broadcast industry, Eiji Shirai entertained him personally.

As for the woman sitting opposite Eiji Shirai, Fujiwara Keiya finally recognized her as Kamiya Momoka. She is a professor at Waseda University School of Liberal Arts and a very famous writer and literary critic. Not long ago, she also wrote an article "Homeless"

The review essay "The Returnable Child" caused a sensation among readers, and Kei Fujiwara was also praised highly in the article.

Although Kei Fujiwara is also a writer, he is a mystery novelist. He is different from the circle of Kamiya Momoka. He has never met each other, but has only heard each other's name.

"Fujiwara-san, I have long admired you." Momoka Kamiya also recognized Fujiwara Kei at this time and stretched out her hand.

"Teacher Kamiya, I read your previous article in "The Call of the Wild" and it was very moving. I never thought you still have such a past."

Momoka Kamiya said: "That was also inspired by your work. "Homeless Children" is a very excellent TV series. I am very much looking forward to the second season."

Then you can’t wait for it. Fujiwara Kei cursed in his heart.

"This is..." Eiji Shirai looked at Ohno Nagaharu. The people sitting down to eat with Kei Fujiwara should also be industry insiders, right?

"This is my friend, Ohno Nagaharu, who is now an independent director."

"Hi, nice to meet you." Eiji Shirai smiled and shook hands with Ohno Nagaharu, but he didn't pay too much attention to it.

Eiji Shirai has seen a lot of independent directors. These people call themselves film writers, but many of them are forced to be independent because they are not capable enough to be hired by large film and television companies and are unwilling to start from basic positions.

There is a saying that says that young people in their twenties who are unemployed often fantasize about being a writer (I almost cried when I first saw this sentence).

When this young man gets an 8mm camera, he will claim to be an independent director.

At this time, Shirai Eiji suddenly remembered something: "Are you here to participate in the film festival? Are there any works on display?"

Fujiwara Kei smiled and nodded: "Yes, the work that Ohno-san and I collaborated on is one of the works on display at this film festival. Ohno-san is responsible for supervision and I am responsible for the screenplay."

"Really?" Eiji Shirai was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Kei Fujiwara would also participate in this film festival as a creator. It seems that in the future, peers cannot be treated as ordinary newcomers. Maybe a big boss like Kei Fujiwara will suddenly

I want to come and play across borders.

"What's the name of the work?" Momoka Kamiya suddenly asked.

At this time, Kei Fujiwara saw the work badge Kamiya Momoka was wearing around her neck and asked, "Is Mr. Kamiya a reviewer of the film festival?"

Momoka Kamiya nodded: "Yes, although I am not an industry insider, I have published many film and television reviews, so I was invited to be a special audience this time."

Fujiwara Kei turned to look at Shirai Eiji again: "Is this the same for Special Agent Shirai?"

Eiji Shirai said: "Yes, I was invited too."

Fujiwara Keido: "In this case, I can't tell you two, so as not to be suspected of using the back door. After all, Ohno and I's goal is to win the peer's first prize."
