Tokyo Literature and Art Times

In this change, the police officer also helped a lot and made him take some credit.

And now, Kiryu is no longer a Yakuza, which makes the police officer very embarrassed.

In the end, under coercion and temptation, Kiryu Kazuma returned to his original life in Yakuza, this time under the umbrella of the Taketori Group.

The boss of the Taketori Group, Taketori Goro, is an important candidate for the next Ruotou.

Ruotou means the successor of the Yakuza organization, but in fact, it was Yamaguchi-gumi who first established this position, which is the current Yamamoto-gumi.

It's just that the script is not called Yamaguchi-gumi, but Aoyama-gumi.

Goro Taketori recruited Kiryu Kazuma, obviously to increase his strength and better obtain the position of Ruotou.

At the first meeting, Kiryu Kazuma gave his boss a very important message.

A large group of team leaders and presidents gathered together, not only for Ruotou's seat, but also for some business, that kind of business.

Come here quickly and catch them all!

As a result, it was empty.

The most irritating thing is that these Yakuzas left a few guns behind, which means, have pity on you gang of useless police, take these guns back to hand over.

The police took a few... In short, they were very angry!

As for the police officer Waziro who was in charge of this case, the one who directly contacted Kazuma Kiryu, he realized it immediately.

There are ghosts in our police too!

Who is this inner ghost?

A policeman named Dojima Daigo is very active...

……

Shimiya Cheng turned to the last page, and he couldn't come out of the script for a long time.

This "Infernal Affairs" is really great!

Although it has not been completed yet, that is to say, Shimiya Cheng did not fully understand it.

But he was still shocked!

First of all, the story is so interesting.

The Japanese police undercover the undercover gangs. This matter has not been disclosed in too much detail so far, but the news often mentions "tips", that is, information given by informants.

So, the story of the police going undercover with the gangsters alone is fascinating.

Yakuza also sent undercover to the police?

The two sides penetrated each other and sent undercover agents to each other.

The idea, Splashy!

Moreover, Shimaya immediately thought of "The Ferocious Man".

At the end of the movie, isn't it that the rookie police officer Kikuchi killed the corrupt policeman Iwajo?

He's just a newcomer, so is he undercover?

The most important thing is that the plot continues!

One more key, and that's the plot so far.

The Yamaichi struggle, the gathering of gang leaders from all over the world, and then handing over a few guns, is what really happened.

Art comes from reality.

Regarding the Yamaichi protest, several movies and novels have been released so far, and the response has been very good (making money).

For example, the well-known "Wife of the Extreme Way" is adapted from Yamaichi's struggle, and this Wife of the Extreme Way is not Yamaguchi Fumiko.

But in fact, the movie "The Wife of the Extreme Way", in addition to being related to the hot event of the Yamaichi struggle, also has a lot of large-scale scenes, but as far as the movie is concerned, it is quite bad.

Compared to the "Infernal Affairs" in front of me, it's just an unfinished story, it can't be compared at all!

"The Wife of the Extreme Way" can be a big seller, and sequels have been filmed one after another. What about this "Infernal Affairs"?

Shimiya seems to see a lot of yen... no, it's art.

He couldn't help but want to laugh. When Shanyi was fighting, many people were interviewed, and they were very scared and hated those Yakuza.

But after the incident passed, the film and television works adapted from this incident were very popular.

Even, not only the struggle of Yamaichi, but also the gangster film of Shochiku, the real rise of Shinji Fukasaku's film "Battle of No Kindness and Righteousness", which is based on the real Hiroshima gangster struggle.

Moreover, because of this movie, not only Fukasaku Xinji, but also Suga Yuanta, who originally only played a small role, won the first actor with this movie.

Later, seven or eight sequels were made to this movie, which made fans almost vomit before they stopped.

Summary: Although everyone hates Yakuza, they like to read Yakuza's story.

Eating melons is sweet as long as you don't eat them yourself.

not good!

Having worked hard in the business world all the year round, Shimaya knew very well that he should not have too many mood swings, which would make his 'opponents' see through.

Shimiya quickly calmed down, "Iwata-san, your script is indeed very good, but I still don't understand, what does this script have to do with the release of "Ferocious Man"?"

As soon as these words came out, Iwata Takeshi didn't say anything, the bald man at Shisho Temple was already snickering.

As a professional director, he is very sensitive to changes in expressions. Just now, Shimiya Cheng, his changes are a bit too much.

From being surprised, to being fascinated, to being deeply immersed in it, and then suddenly awakened, and finally, trying to calm down.

All of this has been fully explained, Shimaya lost.

Ah Wu, this guy, can't you see it?

"Shimatani-san." Takeshi Iwata took a sincere attitude, "In my opinion, this 'Ferocious Man' has been affirmed by the seniors of Shishoji Temple and Shimaya-san, I am very happy, but also very frightened. , I'm just a nobody, what should I do if the movie is released and the news isn't enough?"

"Oh." Shimaya seemed to have interrupted Takeshi Iwata's words. He frowned and said with authority, "You want to create more news. Generally, it means that this movie participates in events such as film festivals."

Takeshi Iwata nodded, this is almost a well-known routine in the film circle.

Shimadani continued, but his attitude became more serious, "However, there have not been any special film festivals or important awards recently, and most of our Japanese film awards are concentrated between February and March. That is, you want to wait until next year... eh?"

Shimaya saw Takeshi Iwata's expression change, and it was obvious that he didn't want to wait until next year.

So……

"You want to go to a film festival abroad?"

The tone was very sharp.

But Takeshi Iwata had a ferocious face, and he didn't give in, and looked directly at Shimaya Cheng.

nodded.

To be honest, Shima Valley is very empty... This guy is so fierce, so scary!

However, for now, he must maintain the majesty of a superior.

"Too frivolous? You actually want to go to the Venice Film Festival?!"

That's right, the Venice Film Festival.

This film festival is not only an international A-level film festival, but also the oldest film festival. The most important thing is that this film festival is in September.

For Takeshi Iwata, this is the best chance for him and the film to be released successfully!

However, Takeshi Iwata is a newcomer, and Japan is a country based on seniority, so it is not wrong for Shimadani to accuse him of being frivolous.

But Takeshi Iwata was still unshakable, his vicious face was expressionless, like a prelude to my wife Ryosuke's murder.

So scary... Shima Valley is holding on.

Fortunately, Takeshi Iwata just nodded heavily.

"Then why do you think you can participate in the Venice Film Festival, which is an international A-level film festival!"

When Shimaya said this, he could hear it himself, lacking in momentum.

Takeshi Iwata was still the same, with no expression on his face, but just stretched out his hand and pointed to the script of "Infernal Affairs".

When Shimaya saw it, he was actually relieved, but he still said quite imposingly: "You mean, use this script in exchange for Dongbao's recommendation to you? In this way, "Violent Man" can Are you at the Venice Film Festival?"

Takeshi Iwata nodded again, but in his heart:

You guys don't understand very well.

After all, the Venice Film Festival is an old-fashioned film festival, and the selection of films is relatively strict, but recommended by well-known film companies, this is indeed a better channel.

In fact, the three major European film festivals, despite their reputation, have been overwhelmed by the Oscar limelight for so many years, and they also lack films.

Of course, it doesn't mean that if you recommend it, you will choose it, so...

He had long forgotten that he said "do not understand" Shimaya, he seized the last chance to fight back, "What if this film fails to enter the Venice Film Festival?"

Takeshi Iwata finally spoke, very sincere, "If you fail to enter the Venice Film Festival, then this script will be given to Shimaya-san."

There is a cleverness in this sentence, not to give it to Dongbao, but to give it to Shimaya.

As such...

"A word is settled!"

"I will never regret it!"

The two held their hands together, and they were in a state of tension just now, but now they are chatting and laughing.

The old bald man from Shishang Temple watched the whole process from the side, and his face was naturally very happy, but in his heart, he laughed miserably.

This boy Awu is bad enough, Shimagu was talking about it all the way, but you got a big deal!

Chapter 033 Iwata, is to open up a field on the stone!

"A-wu! I really didn't see the wrong person!"

"Teacher of Shixiang Temple, Arigado!"

Before the best time for the izakaya business, Shishoji Akio and Iwata Takeshi, the old and young, found a seat at will and started drinking.

After the negotiation with Shimaya, everyone is busy, and now the time is very tight, and it is really impossible to have a business banquet or something.

However, Takeshi Iwata said that he had to ask Shishoji-sensei.

From the time we met to now, I have not really thanked the referrer seriously, and Takeshi Iwata felt a little sorry.

Teacher Shishoji naturally saw this, and he felt that it was no big deal at all. As long as Takeshi Iwata's film could be successful, it would be the best gift for him.

Takeshi Iwata naturally said that he will continue to work hard, but he also has questions, that is, why is Teacher Shishoji so envious of him?

Shishang Temple gives an example.

Vincent van Gogh's paintings became world-famous after his death, but what if the person who discovered his paintings hadn't been there?

So, for the person who discovered Van Gogh's paintings, his sense of accomplishment is definitely...

When Iwata Takeshi heard this, his face was expressionless.

My ghost is not dead yet, you old bald man!

Of course, this is just a joke. They are old and young, and they don't avoid meat and vegetarian food. They are very harmonious.

However, after all, Shishang Temple is too old to drink too much, so the topic is brought back to the movie.

"To be honest, I am also very envious of Ah Wu."

"what?"

"It's like this latest story, how did you come up with it? How can you think of such an interesting story?"

"This one……"

Takeshi Iwata was a little guilty. In fact, he combined many elements in this "Infernal Affairs".

In fact, Takeshi Iwata knew very well that if "Infernal Affairs" was directly moved to Japan, it would definitely fail!

I remember that this is the case in reality. The Japanese remake didn't attract much attention, and many people didn't even know that it had been remade.

Ever since, Takeshi Iwata intends to just use the story base of the police and the underworld sending undercover agents to each other, and this is actually a real thing, combined with the current actual situation in Japan, and those names...

There is no way, because the time is too tight, and if it is later, the door of the Venice Film Festival will be completely closed to him.
