Chapter 468
Tokyo Bubble Life Main Text Volume 478, This is not filming a horror movie... it's filming a comedy! When he opened his eyes again, it was already past 9 o'clock in the morning.
Naoki Nagayama felt that his spirit had improved a lot, but the symptoms of the cold still existed.
In order to avoid infecting others, he still put on a mask~
This hotel in Kyoto is actually specially prepared for tourists on vacation, so various service facilities are very complete, and it is not far from his own courtyard.
Naoki Nagayama barely ate a steamed bun with filling, and prepared to go out to see how his courtyard was progressing.
When he arrived at the courtyard by taxi, it was already a big construction site. Several small excavators were operating non-stop, expanding the small river in the courtyard, leveling the undulating slopes, and even the place where the original main house was located had been demolished, leaving only the foundation structure.
Takashi Honma in the courtyard saw Naoki Nagayama and hurriedly walked over:
"Naoki-san, you are here~"
"Yes, Honma-san, how is the project going?" The voice from the mask was a bit muffled.
"Let me take Naoki-san to see~" Takashi Honma took Naoki Nagayama through the muddy courtyard site and came to the side of the house. "The foundation of the main house has been corroded, but the wood used for the main beam and support pillars is of very high quality and can continue to be used."
The main house only had the original wooden structure left, but the aristocratic architect at the time clearly considered anti-moth and anti-moisture when building, so the supporting structure was still okay, but the wooden foundation was naturally corroded over time.
"Currently, we plan to pour cement and steel bars on the foundation underneath, and then lay moisture-proof materials..."
Takashi Honma introduced the latest construction technology endlessly. In his mouth, after this operation, this building can definitely regain its youth and persist for another hundred years. It can definitely send Naoki Nagayama away!
"Honma-san, thank you for your hard work!"
Naoki Nagayama watched for a while, but had no research on architecture, so he could only nod constantly.
"By the way, Honma-san, can I trouble you to help take some videotapes of the construction process while working here?" Naoki Nagayama considered the excuse he told Xiuichi Yin Tang, but he couldn't really call the camera crew to film, right?
"I want to make a documentary of the renovation later."
"Eh? This..." Takashi Honma had seen requests for photos, but filming videos... "Naoki-san, we are not professional cameramen..."
"It doesn't matter!" Naoki Nagayama comforted. "It doesn't need to be too formal technology, just film it every day."
"This... okay~"
Naoki Nagayama dragged his sick body to the small hill behind the house to take a look. The family temple was well protected.
When leaving, he looked back at this construction site: "Still... more than half a year..."
When he returned to the city center again, it was already past noon. Naoki Nagayama, who had no appetite, came directly to the film set.
Seeing the crew filming, Naoki Nagayama walked behind the camera:
"Xiuichi-san, what are you filming in the afternoon?"
"Ah, Naoki-san." Xiuichi Yin Tang looked back. "In the morning, we just filmed the scene in the mourning hall. This scene is the scene where the reporter's daughter watches the videotape."
"Oh? Watching a videotape?"
Naoki Nagayama looked at the scene. Little girl Regarding Jia Yi Yin Tang was watching the TV in the room one by one. In the dim scene, the strange combing woman on the pale screen, snow spots, buzzing unclear sounds, and the dim well...
If ordinary people look at it at first glance, they might think it is an image with unclear meaning, but for Naoki Nagayama who knows the script, he feels the horror... goosebumps all over his arms!
In the scene, Regarding Jia Yi Yin Tang looked at the TV ignorantly. When her mother Yuko Tanaka came to ask, she even said that Tomoko asked her to watch it... Even though this was filming, the heart-palpitating horror was expressed.
"Is this videotape made by the prop team?" Naoki Nagayama asked a little uncomfortably.
"No, this was filmed by Masataka Komori." Xiuichi Yin Tang said. "That guy filmed it casually, it's very simple."
Masataka Komori smiled honestly on the side~
Naoki Nagayama glanced at it: "I didn't expect Masataka-kun to have a talent for horror movies~ This kind of silent film feeling."
"Hahaha, it's all because the script is well written~ Everything is written out." Masataka Komori scratched his head.
At this time, Regarding Jia Yi-chan's scene had been completed, and Xiuichi Yin Tang said:
"Naoki-san, do you want to film that scene by the way today?"
"? Which one?"
"It's the scene where Sadako crawls out of the TV!" Xiuichi Yin Tang said. "It just so happens that this scene is also very dim, and the size of the TV is also very suitable..."
"Uh... then are the actors ready? What about the props of the prop team?"
"Ah, by the way, the actor!" Xiuichi Yin Tang hurriedly shouted, "Hualing-chan, is the makeup done?"
"Yes!"
A sweet voice came from the room next door, and then a beautiful girl with fluttering white clothes and fluttering long hair walked out.
Looking at that face that can be called beautiful, Naoki Nagayama looked at Xiuichi Yin Tang in astonishment:
"Xiuichi-san, let her play Sadako?"
Xiuichi Yin Tang nodded affirmatively: "Yes, this is Hualing Igarashi, a teacher in a modern dance training class."
Naoki Nagayama was a little speechless. Xiuichi-san, we are here to film a horror movie, not to film an avi!
"However, this Hualing-san has no horror feeling at all~"
Xiuichi Yin Tang then took a closer look: "Ah, it's really a bit short, Hualing-chan, wipe on the powder! Then put your hair in front!"
"Yes!" Hualing Igarashi hurriedly ran back, and after a while, she ran back while tidying her hair, "Is this okay?"
"Hmm, almost there." Xiuichi Yin Tang nodded.
Because it was filmed in full view of everyone, one of the most famous horror scenes in history looked a bit funny from the perspective of the scene...
Due to the need for later special effects, the scene of Sadako crawling out was filmed by borrowing positions. In fact, it was crawling out from a screen the size of a TV screen~
"Hualing-chan, come again, crawl out slower this time!" Xiuichi Yin Tang instructed. "The movements should be stiff, and the hair should completely cover the face!"
"Hualing-chan, lift your head slightly, reveal a fierce look, but don't reveal your face!"
"..."
Watching a girl who looked quite beautiful and had a pretty good figure crawling back and forth in front of him, Naoki Nagayama was a little speechless, always feeling that there was something wrong with this horror movie.
Anyway, if such a Sadako crawled out of the TV, the otaku watching TV should be excited instead of afraid...
Yuko Tanaka was watching on the side and found it very interesting: "Naoki-san, why does it feel like you are very happy when filming here..."
". Hahaha, because we are filming a comedy~"
After finally filming this shot, Xiuichi Yin Tang let the crew members rest for a while and found Naoki Nagayama:
"Naoki-san, do you have any opinions on the filming?"
"Haha, I feel it's not very scary..." Naoki Nagayama laughed. "People who don't know would think we are filming a comedy~"
"This is also no way, that kind of horror movie is scary before editing~" Xiuichi Yin Tang didn't care. "Besides, a large part of horror movies is sound effects, and sound effects haven't been added yet~"
"That's true~" Speaking of this, Naoki Nagayama thought of a good thing. "Xiuichi-san, we haven't bought a waterphone yet, right?"
"? Waterphone?" Xiuichi Yin Tang, although he knew a lot about movie filming, was also directing a horror movie for the first time. He had never heard of this very special unpopular musical instrument specially made for horror movies. "What is that?"
"A musical instrument for horror movies." Naoki Nagayama said. "Specially made for horror movies."
"The soundtrack for horror movies, shouldn't it be played with a piano..." In this era, using the bass of a piano to accompany horror movies was indeed a trend.
"This is a better choice." Naoki Nagayama smiled. "I'll go buy one~"
"Eh?"
In Xiuichi Yin Tang's puzzled eyes, Naoki Nagayama immediately took a taxi to the largest musical instrument market in Kyoto. This kind of unpopular musical instrument could only be bought in that kind of place.
By the time Naoki Nagayama returned to the film set, he had already brought a strange musical instrument, like a circle of thin iron rods welded on a water pot, more like a kitchen utensil than a musical instrument.
"Naoki-san, is this the waterphone you mentioned?" Xiuichi Yin Tang also became interested.
"Yes, this thing can make a very scary sound!" Actually, it was Naoki Nagayama's first time touching the real thing, but it didn't prevent him from talking about it.
"Just fill it with water, and then use a bow or a percussion stick..."
Naoki Nagayama slid the bow on the waterphone lightly, and a low, ringing sound with a metallic tone appeared on the film set. Even though it was broad daylight, it gave people a sense of loneliness at midnight.
The sweat hair on Xiuichi Yin Tang's neck stood up all at once: "This sound is really amazing!"
He tapped it lightly with a percussion stick, and the same scary sound continued to be emitted, attracting everyone on the film set.
Especially the little girl Regarding Jia Yi Yin Tang, looking at this novel toy, her eyes were about to shine!
Naoki Nagayama tested it several times and put the waterphone with the props: "This looks like it needs someone to practice it specially, and then use it when scoring."
The afternoon filming went very smoothly. The filming of *Ring* was very difficult, but most of it was actually in the editing. The actual filming process was relatively easy.
Xiuichi Yin Tang and Masataka Komori, according to the filming process, directed the crew members scene by scene. Even without Naoki Nagayama, the filming was very smooth.
So Naoki Nagayama walked to the side of Xu Mudao and whispered: "Mudao-kun, the thing I told you before is expected to start next week, you have no problem here, right?"
Xu Mudao looked around: "Yes, absolutely no problem."
"Mudao-kun, your looking around is a bit redundant, no one will notice you!" Naoki Nagayama said. "Even if you disappear for a whole day, I guess no one will notice."
"..." Xu Mudao looked at Naoki Nagayama's sincere face and felt like punching him.
"Cough cough, in short, the day after tomorrow, I will tell Xiuichi-san, and we will take a plane directly there." Naoki Nagayama said. "Need to film for three days..."
"Three days?" Xu Mudao opened his eyes wide. "Not being there for three days..."
"Rest assured! Just this once." Naoki Nagayama didn't care. "I have already told Xiuichi-san in advance, you are filming renovation videos for me."
"But... three days..."
"My courtyard is a bit big~" Naoki Nagayama said. "Just say it needs a few more days to film~"
"..." Xu Mudao couldn't understand his boss's thinking anymore.
"Remember to bring your team members!" Naoki Nagayama patted Xu Mudao on the shoulder. "We will go and return quickly!"
After saying that, he went behind the camera again.
At the same time, Akina Nakamori also finished filming the magazine cover and was on the way back to Tokyo by car,
"Mingxing Fangze-san, after returning to Tokyo, are we going to rehearse for *Night HIT*?"
"Yes, this new song also received an invitation from the program team." Akina Mingxing Fangze said while driving. "This time, it seems there is also a newly debuted singer."
"Eh? Am I singing with her?" Akina Nakamori was a little strange, isn't there only a joint singing?
"No, she seems to be the finale..."
Akina Mingxing Fangze was also very strange. A newly debuted idol could actually be placed in front of Akina Nakamori. Knowing this, it is actually very unfavorable for the debuting side.
Those who can surpass Akina Nakamori in singing are all very famous singers, such as Shinichi Mori and the like. If it is said to be an idol, currently only Seiko Matsuda can say that she is better than Akina Nakamori.
"Is that so... what is that idol's name?"
"Should be Chikako Aoyama." Akina Mingxing Fangze remembered this name.
"Is it her?"
Akina Nakamori remembered, she is Naoki Nagayama's scandal object! And she is also the new idol of Naoki-san's agency!
And this debut song seems to be created by Naoki-san too!
Her beautiful eyebrows wrinkled unconsciously...
After the filming ended in the evening, Xiuichi Yin Tang took Regarding Jia Yi Yin Tang to dinner and returned to the courtyard to rest.
Regarding Jia Yi-chan, who had taken a shower, was watching TV boredly, while Xiuichi Yin Tang was looking at tomorrow's filming schedule beside him, thinking about the scenes to be filmed.
Suddenly, Xiuichi Yin Tang felt much quieter,
"Why is the TV noise gone?"
"Woo~`~" A gloomy background sound came from behind him, and his whole back instantly stood up with goosebumps, and every goosebump exploded...
Xiuichi Yin Tang turned his head in fear and looked at the direction of the courtyard. At this moment, he really thought Sadako was going to crawl out of the well, and even felt that the underwear he had just changed was a little wet~
However, after turning his head, he saw Regarding Jia Yi-chan took the waterphone from somewhere and was playing with it with a bow!
A burst of scary sound effects came out of her hands~
"Regarding Jia Yi-chan! What are you doing?!" Xiuichi Yin Tang roared shamefully.
"Odo-san, this musical instrument is fun, I want to learn!"
Xiuichi Yin Tang felt for the first time that his daughter was not cute...
