Chapter 145: No Masahiko Kondo! We want Shonentai!
He continued to chat with Yin Tangxiu and Fangcun Dayou about the casting of the movie roles.
Yin Tangxiu said: "Naoki-san, the actors in the movie script are all very young, but among Japanese male actors, it's not easy to find young ones~"
Fangcun Dayou replied: "That's true... The stars with appeal are basically over 30~"
Naoki Nagayama curled his lips on the side: "It's just that the stars you pay attention to are in their 30s... There are plenty of actors in their 20s in the entertainment industry, but they just don't have a name~"
Indeed, it's hard to make it in the Showa entertainment industry, okay!
How much acting skill can actors in their 20s have, and how can they make a name for themselves? Unless they have been in the entertainment industry since they were child stars, otherwise, what works would be willing to give young people a chance?
It's not like the traffic stars of later generations, who can get a salary of hundreds of millions just by showing their faces, even if their faces are photoshopped on, it can still be considered an appearance.
Yin Tangxiu didn't refute: "That's true, there's no other way~ Why not look for them in idol dramas~"
Fangcun Dayou interjected at this time: "If it's idol dramas, isn't '3-nen B-gumi Kinpachi-sensei' very popular? I heard that the male idols in it are also very popular."
Yin Tangxiu thought for a while: "Is it the 'Tahara Trio' that has been very famous recently?"
Then he gossiped with Naoki Nagayama:
"Naoki-san, do you remember the guy who took over your commercial last year? The one named Masahiko Kondo is now a member of the 'Tahara Trio', and his popularity is very high!"
"That guy?" Naoki Nagayama really didn't care much about male stars. "To be able to become famous with that kind of acting, is his singing very good?"
Naoki Nagayama seemed to remember that this guy would have some famous songs later.
"Singing? Average~"
Yin Tangxiu shook his head. "It doesn't sound like much, but I don't know why so many people like him..."
Fangcun Dayou seemed to have a feeling: "Idols, after appearing a few more times in front of thousands of people, there will always be some people who will remember them."
The audience's attention is limited and forgetful. As long as the exposure is high enough and the base is large enough, there will always be fans.
Don't those various strange live broadcasts of later generations also have thousands of fans?
Yin Tangxiu took out a videotape at this time: "This was given to me by a friend, a videotape of a singing program. I originally planned to ask me to help edit it. I remember that the Tahara Trio seemed to have an appearance."
As he spoke, he put the videotape into the projector and adjusted the speed, pulling it directly to the moment the Tahara Trio appeared.
On the screen were colorful stage lights, and a person wearing shorts followed the music beat to make strange movements. It was Masahiko Kondo...
The other two didn't seem to react, but Naoki Nagayama watched very awkwardly...
Looking at it from the perspective of later generations, this stage lighting is simply trash, and the lead singer's singing doesn't seem to be in tune at all. And what he danced, it's not as good as the three backup dancers next to him!
Those three backup dancers at least kept up with the rhythm, and their movements were very smooth. Oh, that backflip is very good!
After watching the videotape, Naoki Nagayama said directly:
"Xiu-san, Dayou-san, let's forget about Masahiko Kondo... A group like the Tahara Trio may not necessarily participate in our movie~"
Fangcun Dayou also nodded: "At the beginning of the year, a hot group like the Tahara Trio, when they are officially releasing new songs and touring, they definitely don't have the schedule for filming, and the cost must be very expensive."
"That's true, after all, it's the hottest male idol group at the moment~"
Although it's not Naoki Nagayama's reason for rejecting them, it's fine as long as they don't appear in his own movie.
However, the backup dancers who appeared just now felt very familiar. Dancing for the Tahara Trio at this time? Could it be Shonentai?
"Dayou-san, did you notice the backup dancers just now?"
Fangcun Dayou was a little confused: "Backup dancers?"
"Yes, those three dance very well and are also very young. Can you help me ask?"
Although it was a bit abrupt, Naoki Nagayama felt that if it was really Shonentai, then inviting them to participate in the movie wouldn't it be buying at the bottom~
"Okay, I will go and inquire later." Fangcun Dayou nodded in response. Anyway, he had to connect with Johnny's later, so he would just ask by the way.
Yin Tangxiu asked: "Then what about the actresses? There are at least 2 main heroines."
"Does Kanako Higuchi-san have a schedule?" Naoki Nagayama asked directly, after all, several collaborations had been quite good.
"I already asked yesterday~" Fangcun Dayou said, "Kanako-san is filming other TV dramas and has no schedule~"
"Eh... is that so~"
"Then we can only consult other agencies~"
The afternoon was spent in casting and plot discussions.
The basic supporting roles were all divided up by everyone in the studio.
Even Fangcun Dayou, who kept saying he was busy, mixed in an extra's identity...
Seeing that it was getting late, Naoki Nagayama hurriedly said goodbye.
"Dayou-san, Xiu-san~ If there's nothing else, I'll go back first~"
"Eh? Don't you want to have a meal together?" Yin Tangxiu was surprised. Naoki, aren't you the guy who loves to sponge meals the most?
"Hahaha, could it be that you are in a hurry to go on a date?"
Naoki Nagayama was speechless: "Not for the time being... There is a little thing at home that needs to be taken care of~"
"A little thing?"
"Yes, I adopted a puppy."
Yin Tangxiu was even more surprised: "Adopt a puppy? Is Naoki-san too lonely? Wouldn't it be better to fall in love?"
"... Xiu-san, don't be like an old mother..." Naoki Nagayama was helpless. "A lost puppy seen on a snowy day, you can't just stand by and watch it die~"
"Hahaha, is that so? Then there's no other way~"
After Naoki Nagayama's car drove away, Yin Tangxiu and Fangcun Dayou whispered to each other.
"Dayou-san, do you think... is Naoki-san that?"
"That? Which one?"
"That is... gay!" Yin Tangxiu said, "He hasn't had a girlfriend for a whole year!"
"Eh?" Fangcun Dayou thought about it, it seemed there was such a possibility. Young, rich, and handsome, logically speaking, he should be swimming in a sea of flowers.
"No way, he looks very normal~"
"It's just whether there is such a possibility..."
"Xiu-san, don't worry too much~ Even if he is, that is Naoki-san's personal choice."
"I don't want to worry... just curious, just curious..."
Naoki Nagayama, who was driving home,
sneezed a few times in the car,
but he didn't realize that two guys were editing him behind his back.
"Caught a cold? You are dressed very warmly~"
Returning to Shanyingyuan, as soon as he opened the door, he heard Eitaro's barking.
He ran over very excitedly, circling around his feet.
"Eitaro, did you watch the house well?"
After rubbing the dog's head hard, Naoki Nagayama hugged the little thing and walked to the living room, looking around, it wasn't too messy~
Hey, why is there a wrinkle on the table leg here?
Walking closer, there were a few tiny tooth marks.
"Eitaro, did you do this!" Eitaro looked innocent.
Pulling open the dog's mouth slightly, there were no strange marks on the small teeth,
but it looked like he needed to buy a teething stick. ===== CHAPTER 146 =====
