Chapter 1296: You are going to be the

~13 min read 2,526 words

In the top-floor office of the Shuyou Building, Fangcun Dayou was listening to the report from Shuyou's number one ninja.

"What, that Mama-san actually filmed secretly?!"

Fangcun Dayou, who heard this fact, was also surprised. Speaking of which, in Japan, a country that values men over women, people who go to clubs to consume never thought that a mere club Mama-san would dare to do such a thing!

If this kind of thing is exposed, who would dare to go to the club to consume? The business of the whole street, or even the entire Roppongi club, would be affected!

The underworld, capitalists, and even some noble families who control the nightclubs behind the scenes would not allow such people who don't follow the rules to appear!

"Sure enough, the trend of feminism has been blowing too hard these years!"

Fangcun Dayou sighed. In Japan's golden age now, women are really held too high~

And Xu Mudao Xu on the side continued his report:

"Because of this reason, in order not to be discovered, I have already taken back the hidden cameras in the room."

Fangcun Dayou nodded:

"You did the right thing; the material filmed before is enough! Any more is just repetition."

"Hai." Xu Mudao Xu asked, "Then how to deal with Haraguchi Motoko? Should we inform Noda Yoshihiko?"

"Hmm..." Fangcun Dayou pondered for a while, "No need, let's just pretend we don't know!"

"And then when Haraguchi Motoko uses this record to make trouble, we can sell Noda-kun another favor..."

Speaking of this, Fangcun Dayou looked up at Xu Mudao Xu, his eyes full of satisfaction and amazement:

"Xu Mudao-kun, I didn't expect your talent to be so convenient after being used in the right place! Have you considered changing your profession?"

"Changing profession?" Xu Mudao Xu was a bit curious, "What profession?"

"Changing to a secret force behind the scenes, relying on your ability, just like the ninjas of the past, finding the opponent's flaws in the dark, removing Shuyou's enemies, and protecting the company's development..."

Fangcun Dayou became more excited as he spoke. The Shuyou Group really lacked someone to deal with the darkness,

"I will set up a special department for you, just call it the Root Department... you will become the root buried underground by Shuyou!!!"

"The deeper the root is buried in the dark soil, the more lush Shuyou can be!"

"......."

Xu Mudao Xu always felt he had heard this kind of statement somewhere...

Ah, it's Naoki-san!

Naoki-san occasionally pops up some strange words when he is drunk, like "where the leaves dance, the fire also flourishes," and seems to have said something about "the root that takes the blame," "Pot Shadow," and so on.

It seems that people who do this kind of thing are generally the ones who take the blame!!

"Cough cough..."

Xu Mudao Xu coughed twice and tactfully refused,

"Dayou-san, in the first half of my life, I was always ignored until I came to Shuyou and people noticed me, feeling other people's gazes... so, I still want to walk in the light!"

"I... want more people to see me, want to be as radiant as Naoki-san!!! And then find more girlfriends!"

".... er....."

Fangcun Dayou was stuck. Yeah, what's wrong with a young man wanting to find a girlfriend?!

"Is that so, then forget it..."

No, you actually want to find many girlfriends?!! This is a problem!

"However, Xu Mudao-kun, in this era, boys should also be careful when looking for girlfriends, don't be like Noda Yoshihiko..."

"Hai, I understand!"

Xu Mudao Xu nodded and placed the tape on the table,

"Then Dayou-san, I'll go to work first!"

"Hmm, go~"

Fangcun Dayou was full of kindness, but after Xu Mudao Xu walked out of the office, he held the tape and revealed an evil smile,

"Xu Mudao-kun, since you have such ability, whether you do it or not is not up to you!"

Although our Shuyou Group is indeed not a devil organization that exploits employees to do things they don't want to do... but some things are still needed...

"Haha, hehe, jeje... eh? Why would I laugh like a villain?!"

Fangcun Dayou hurriedly threw the tape in his hand into the drawer,

"This tape seems to be poisonous! Sure enough, this kind of bad thing cannot be done too much; it will cause personality deviation!"

Naoki Nagayama came to Jurassic Island again in the morning like an ordinary office worker.

"Naoki-san..."

Xiaosen Zhengxiao, who was directing the crew, saw Naoki Nagayama come and hurriedly walked over to say,

"The crew is ready and can start filming at any time!"

"Hmm, thank you for your hard work!"

Patting Xiaosen Zhengxiao on the shoulder, Naoki Nagayama took the filming schedule and glanced at it,

"Hmm... filming the scene of seeing the Triceratops today..."

The content to be filmed today is the protagonist coming to Jurassic Park and seeing a sick Triceratops.

"Prop team..."

Naoki Nagayama found Wu Jing Jianyan of the prop team,

"Wu Jing-san, how is our Triceratops?!"

"Ah, Naoki-san! The prop is here..."

Wu Jing Jianyan saw Naoki Nagayama come to inquire, so he took him to the filming location, a set arranged as the wild.

In the middle of the grass, a behemoth two or three times the size of a person was lying on its side... a Triceratops!

The lifelike makeup technology, the abdomen rising and falling as it breathed, made people feel at first glance that a real Triceratops had come to the modern era... but Wu Jing Jianyan soon broke this illusion.

He took Naoki Nagayama behind the Triceratops model, and then pulled open a cover plate disguised as the ground, and saw the hidden part.

Their prop team actually dug a big pit directly under the Triceratops model, and then a crew member was inside holding a pole to operate the Triceratops' breathing... The Triceratops was only half real on the ground, and it was completely hollow inside!

"Naoki-san, the outer skin of this Triceratops was painted by a professional special effects makeup artist; the essence is a leather suit, so please ask the actors not to touch it too hard..."

Wu Jing Jianyan pointed to the young man inside and explained,

"As for the inside, he operates it, which can cooperate with the actors to show breathing, opening the mouth, blinking, and other operations..."

"I thought it would be operated by an electric motor..." Naoki Nagayama shrugged, "Mechanical braking or something..."

"That's too much trouble!"

Wu Jing Jianyan didn't think so,

"You have to install wires, connect power, design circuits, program... it's cheap and convenient to just find someone to act!"

"....... Makes sense!"

Regarding the work of the prop team, Naoki Nagayama generally wouldn't direct the experts as a layman, as long as the final effect he wanted was presented.

In this movie, many shots are synthesized by computer special effects, but there are also some that require live-action model filming.

So, he helped cover the somewhat heavy cover plate:

"Little brother inside, thank you for your hard work~~ I'll let you out after filming!"

"......"??? ~

"Other dinosaur models..." Naoki Nagayama asked, "That Tyrannosaurus..."

Alright, next, it's time to officially prepare for filming~

Naoki Nagayama found the male lead Harrison Ford and the female lead Tian Zhongyuzi:

"Harrison, Yuko-san..."

"This scene has about two or three shots, and you need to express your emotions from the surprise of discovering the Triceratops, then to joy... Yuko-san, because the Triceratops is your favorite dinosaur... to the final doubt... the doubt about why this Triceratops is sick..."

Sometimes using English, sometimes using Japanese, on the set, Naoki Nagayama, the director, even had to act as a translator.

After all, if you want to fully express your thoughts, it's better to speak for yourself.

"Hai, no problem!"

Tian Zhongyuzi had collaborated with Naoki Nagayama many times and understood the director's meaning very well.

However, Harrison Ford was a bit puzzled:

"Director Nagayama, may I ask which line you want me to express surprise in, and which line to express joy? When does the final doubt start?"

For him, Naoki Nagayama couldn't answer directly by saying "judge for yourself," because if it wasn't explained clearly at this time, this guy would try many times during filming, giving different effects, causing the filming time to be constantly extended...

This was also the reason why the two hadn't broken in well yet, otherwise Harrison wouldn't be so nervous.

"Hmm..."

Naoki Nagayama explained it to him in detail, and then after seriously communicating with other actors, especially the two child actors, he was ready to start performing.

"Everyone in position... ready..."

"Action!"

The shot started from the child actor's perspective, following the children through the grass, and soon, a behemoth in the child's perspective appeared...

The paleontologist played by Harrison Ford saw the Triceratops lying on the ground, couldn't help but feel excited, walked up, and reached out to gently touch the Triceratops' "neck shield"... This circle of bone-like pleated edges like a shield is a powerful weapon used by the Triceratops to protect its shoulders...

And at this time, Tian Zhongyuzi, who was worried about her son, also appeared in the shot, her mouth wide open:

"My God... this is a Triceratops!"

Then she squatted in front of the Triceratops' head, touching the Triceratops' parrot beak and somewhat rounded front horns, judging that it was a female,

"hello, babygirl..."

Then she said to Harrison, who had already turned to the side:

"She was my favorite when I was a child... finally saw her now... what a beautiful creature..."

The Triceratops on the ground also made timely blinking and mouth-opening movements, and even the tongue in its mouth trembled from time to time... Looking at the white foam at the corner of the Triceratops' mouth, Tian Zhongyuzi took out a flashlight to check its pupils and tongue... exactly the same as checking a person for illness...

And Harrison on the other side lay on the Triceratops' belly like a child, showing joy...

However, the belly pressed by this 1.8-meter-tall big man obviously couldn't rise and fall...

"Cut!"

Naoki Nagayama hurriedly shouted cut, letting several cameras, including the jib camera, return to position...

"Harrison... the Triceratops is sick! How can you press on her belly!!"

"And, there is a person pushing inside the Triceratops' belly... you are too heavy! He can't push you!!"

"......"

Hearing the director's words, Harrison Ford's face showed embarrassment,

"I thought it was mechanical force..."

Then he patted the Triceratops' belly:

"Sorry, brother..."

"Alright alright, the one just now was actually okay."

Taking advantage of the opportunity to shout cut, Naoki Nagayama also offered some opinions:

"Yuko-san... Easterners opening their mouths to express surprise is a bit exaggerated, you can use the way of covering your mouth..."

"That kid, don't stay still, although you are the background, you can also squat down and check the Triceratops..."

"....."

After waiting for a while, Naoki Nagayama shouted again:

"Everyone in position, ready... Action!"

So this scene was staged again...

Just like this, the filming of "Jurassic Park" was carried out in full swing.

Jurassic Island also became more and more crowded with the recording of the movie, and it became more and more popular. Shops and small restaurants on the island had already opened...

The original weekly ferry also became daily~

And at the same time, in the film industry, the publicity for "Jurassic Park" had already begun.

"Naoki-san's movie has already started filming!"

Kobayashi Masaki looked at the blessing news in the newspaper and smiled,

"So anxious... looks like he's planning to release it early next year!"

"Yeah..."

Shinoda Masahiro, who was drinking tea with him, nodded,

"This guy, he's so anxious about everything... as if something is forcing him..."

"Perhaps what is forcing him is this rapidly developing era!"

Japan's bubble has reached its peak. After recovering from the stock market crash, the economy is still striding forward. Even if the United States continues to demand the depreciation of the yen, it has not been curbed, but instead has caused Japanese capital to start outputting to the United States.

The "Japan Threat Theory" on Huaerjie before seems to have had the opposite effect. Originally, it was just the middle class and noble ladies going to buy luxury goods, but now Japan's local big capital has begun to truly acquire high-quality production materials in the United States...

The Sony Group's acceleration of the acquisition of Columbia Pictures is the most obvious action among them... Perhaps "Buying America" has become the guiding principle of Japanese capital's actions!

In a Manhattan apartment in New York, USA, Nakai Genta was drinking coffee unhurriedly, preparing to attend the second hearing.

However, the first hearing had already been a complete victory. He believed that the second one would just be another speech in front of people... And during this period, he had already finished all the stock market crash operations of Shuyou Capital in the US stock market!

After bottom-fishing the stocks of high-quality companies, the US branch of Shuyou Capital became a major shareholder of several leading companies in the US stock market... the kind that can attend the shareholders' meeting.

Whether to enter the board of directors later, whether it is necessary to insert personnel into the company... these are all waiting to be discussed with Naoki Nagayama after returning to the country!

"After this hearing, I should consider how to go home!"

Nakai Genta thought of his son Shota,

"Haven't seen him for several months, I wonder if Shota has grown taller..."

He also thought of his wife Hoshino Suzumi, but felt a bit guilty in his heart... After all, as a single man in an open city like the United States, and under such great pressure, it is very difficult to remain chaste.

"Before going home, go to a luxury store to buy some gifts for Suzumi!"

Just as he was letting his imagination run wild, the senior lawyer George knocked on the door:

"Mr. Nakai, we should set off!"

"Ah... okay..."

Nakai Genta drank the coffee in one gulp, took his coat, and went out.

The cold wind blew on Nakai Genta's face, making him shiver, and reminded him:

"Momijigari, it should have started... the maple leaves in my hometown are red~"

Having been in a foreign country for so long, he really missed home!

"George... this hearing of ours, there won't be any problems, right?!"

"Of course!" George's answer was still full of American pride, "You have to trust old George... he has everything on Huaerjie under control!"

"At the last hearing, Mr. Nakai did very well. After today's hearing, there is absolutely no possibility of prosecution..."

"After all, shorting the stock market is not against the rules... If they want to forcibly prosecute Shuyou Capital, then the Securities and Exchange Commission will have to prosecute almost all companies on Huaerjie at the same time..."

"......"

Sitting in the car listening to the confident voice of the senior lawyer George, Nakai Genta felt much more at ease...

"At least before the end of the year, I want to return to Tokyo!"
