Chapter 227 The screenwriter who is best at female dramas

The next day, sure enough, the entertainment sections of major newspapers reported on the winning status of the Japanese Drama Life Award.

The youngest winner of the Best Actress Award and the two winners of the Best Actor Award made this Japanese Drama Lifestyle Awards attract a lot of attention. One of the organizers of the Japanese Drama Lifestyle Awards, the TV magazine "Broadcasting Life", presented the awards.

Sales of the new issue after the ceremony also increased by a full third.

The news that "Homeless Child" missed out on both the Best Screenplay and Best Production Awards also attracted much attention. Many reporters described the work's failure to win the two most critical awards as "unpopular."

thing.

After all, the ratings and social impact achieved by "Homeless Children" are rare, but some people believe that the ratings do not represent everything. Although the drama "Homeless Children" has high ratings,

However, there is still a shortcoming in terms of the rigor of the plot, and some plots are a bit bloody and far-fetched, so it is not incomprehensible to give the award to other works, and the award is not based on ratings alone.

Even "Star News" published such a comment to satirize Kei Fujiwara for failing to win the grand prize. The title was: [Kei Fujiwara's failure to win reflects the professionalism of the judges of the Japanese Drama Life Awards].

"Since Kei Fujiwara's debut, all TV dramas he has created are pure entertainment. Although interesting, they are not profound. "Long Vacation" tells a complicated relationship between men and women; "Furuhata Rensaburo" is about detectives catching criminals; "Loneliness"

"The Gourmet" is not even profound, an elderly man looking for food everywhere."

"Although the emotions expressed in "The Homeless Child" are very touching, the story is too legendary and bloody, and still has no profound conception. As a viewer, the author may think it is acceptable, but as a professional film critic,

It seems a bit shallow.”

"Some people say that Kei Fujiwara may become a national teacher-level writer and screenwriter, but with all due respect, a work needs to achieve two things: [social reflection] and [educating the public] before it can be qualified to be called a national teacher. But in detail

All of Kei Fujiwara’s works seem to fail to meet this standard.”

""Homeless Children" seems to have a tendency to explore certain themes, such as [the living conditions of orphaned children], but in the end it failed to explore these topics in depth. This has also led to Kei Fujiwara not being able to come up with a movie so far

It seems that there is still some time to go before the title of national teacher can be achieved with works that can truly speak directly to people's hearts. Maybe it can be achieved in two years, maybe in five years, or maybe even in a lifetime, I will not be able to write any profound works."

"Let's wait and see!"

"Star News" is the newspaper group behind Fanxing Channel. You can tell from the name that this TV station is named after the newspaper. Fanxing Channel will soon have a new round of ratings war with Fukuyama Channel, so the newspaper will be the target of the war.

They also began to point at Kei Fujiwara, the enemy general.

Kei Fujiwara read the article in the newspaper and threw it aside without paying much attention. Sometimes the belittling of enemies is also a form of praise.

With his current status in the broadcast industry, the number of awards is no longer the most important thing. Winning awards is certainly good and the icing on the cake; not winning is not worth regretting.

Fujiwara Kei didn't particularly care.

What's more, the Japanese Drama Life Award is not the only Japanese drama award. There will also be a Japanese Drama Academy Award waiting for him soon.

The most critical task now is to film "Naoki Hansawa" well.

The spring schedule is getting closer and closer. The first episode of "Hanzawa Naoki" has been filmed and edited, and has entered the filming stage. The filming of the second episode has begun. The main dramas of NBC and Fanxing TV are also being filmed.

This winter will soon pass, and it will soon be time for the bayonets to see red.

"Housekeeper Mita" has reached its ninth episode, and more and more advertising sponsors are coming to it. Even "Famous Craftsman", which previously withdrew its funding, also proposed to add a pre-roll advertisement at the beginning of the show, but is still not optimistic about "Mita."

The drama "Naoki Hansawa".

As the main protagonist, Matsuo Yoko became the biggest beneficiary besides the TV station and the main creative team. While the TV series was still airing, Matsuo Yoko received many endorsements and film and television resources.

Many TV dramas have already begun to schedule Matsuo Yoko's next drama, and all of them will play leading roles.

In Japan, it is very rare for an actress over thirty to play the leading role, mainly because most of the actresses in this age group are married, and after marriage, many artists will announce their retirement. Even if they do not retire,

, many fans will leave, and the career will not be as good as before.

The film and television industry does not welcome older actresses. The fundamental problem is not fans, but many screenwriters and directors who simply will not create stories with older women as protagonists.

Even if there are such stories, most of the heroines are miserable, pitiable, made things difficult for others, and sometimes even annoying.

On the other hand, many stories about men in their forties and fifties often show his maturity, wisdom and charm.

Is this discrimination? In fact, it is not. It is not discrimination, but neglect. Most people cannot imagine what a woman who has lost her youth and charm looks like.

If you can't imagine it, you can't write such a story.

On the other hand, even if it is written, the audience may not like it.

Not only do male viewers dislike it, but even female viewers may not like to watch it.

In fact, when "Housekeeper Mita" first came out, many people were puzzled as to why a comeback actress was chosen to play the lead role?

Wouldn't it be great to find actresses in their prime, such as Arima Keika, Kudo Minami, and Kono Aoi, to play the lead role?

For an actress who has been away from the entertainment industry for so long, the role she plays is probably not a girl, right? Will the audience like to watch such a drama?

However, after the show was aired, Mita, who was expressionless, iron-hearted but omnipotent, won the hearts of the audience in a short period of time. Many viewers hoped that they would have a housekeeper Mita in their family to solve their lives.

all the trouble in.

Mita, played by Yoko Matsuo, has also reversed the audience's prejudice. Now, no one questions the age of the heroine.

First there was "Homeless Child", and then there was "Housekeeper Mita". Both dramas featured female characters. Because of this, some media called Fujiwara Kei "Japan's best at writing about women"

The playwright".

This title was first used by the media as a reward for Kei Fujiwara's delicate writing style and good characterization of female characters. However, as time passed, some people also began to use this title to ridicule Kei Fujiwara.

"If you are so good at writing dramas about women, why not be a woman?"

"Just because he's not good at writing male dramas, Kei Fujiwara can't write a blood-soaking plot."

"I hope he can produce more powerful works instead of a bunch of bloody dramas, otherwise I don't think he deserves the title of national teacher."

Shortly after these remarks were made public, promotional materials for "Naoki Hansawa," a drama whose cast is almost entirely made up of men, were officially released.

There are almost no female characters in the promotional poster, and Naoki Hansawa in the center of the poster is frowning and looking forward, as if he is interrogating something. Under the character portrait, in addition to the title of the play "Naoki Hansawa", there is

There is a line of artistic calligraphy that is very eye-catching and the wording is also very impactful.

"Tit for tooth, repay tenfold!"

Is this a professional drama?
