Chapter 179 We are in love! No, you are not!(1/2)
The two people in France no longer think about the future.
But it was different in Japan. Early the morning after the Cannes Film Festival ended, Tatsuya Nakadai found Kurosawa.
"Teacher! I won a prize!"
"Really?"
"Here's today's newspaper."
"Oh haha……"
Kurosawa was old and couldn't stay up late, but it didn't matter. Nakadai Tatsuya brought him some newspapers, which made the old man very happy.
"Juxtaposition?"
"Yes, it seems that the great director is very stubborn this time."
"It's Bertolucci. Indeed, he has such a character."
"So……"
"Which supervisor is this guy on?"
"Teacher, he should be the fourth one."
"Oh, the fourth one, isn't that great, haha..."
"Teacher, it's just..."
Nakadai Tatsuya was hesitant to speak, but what happened to the fourth one he and Kurosawa mentioned before?
So far, Japanese films have only won four Palme d'Or.
"Hell Gate" in 1954, supervised by Kinugasa Sadanosuke.
In 1980's "Kagemusha", it was Akira Kurosawa.
"Narayama Festival" in 1983, supervised by Imamura Shohei.
It can be said that the three previous supervisors are all famous and well-known supervisors in Japanese history.
And now, Takeshi Iwata has won this award. What does this mean?
Nakadai Tatsuya actually made a judgment a long time ago, that is, at this point in time, Kurosawa Akira-sensei really wants to find a successor.
Indeed, this legendary superstar was definitely not wrong.
At present, it seems that who else is the most likely successor to Akira Kurosawa's mantle?
Takeshi Iwata!
Now that he has won the Palme d'Or, Tatsuya Nakadai is absolutely 100% sure that it must be this young man.
but...
Kurosawa naturally saw his student's expression was different, so he didn't say much at the moment and just continued to read the newspaper. Sure enough, he discovered something interesting.
"Big love? Akina Nakamori and Takei Iwata are set for Cannes?"
"The love story between a fashion queen and a famous director? Iwata Takeshi is sure it will be a romance film!"
"Nakamori Akina's new relationship announcement? Is it really Takeshi Iwata?"
Japan's newspaper industry is very developed. The newspaper companies are real tycoons and there are many newspapers. However, a few of them are absolute heavyweights.
The Yomiuri Shimbun, which claims to have the largest circulation, is the largest newspaper in Japan!
The Asahi Shimbun also claims to have the largest circulation!
The Daily News also claims that it has the largest circulation!
The Sankei Shimbun always says that it has the largest circulation in the Kanto region!
These four newspapers are relatively powerful, and each one is more bragging than the other.
However, it must be admitted that these newspaper companies in Japan are indeed very rich, and not only are they rich, they also extend to many fields.
Among the four major newspapers, there are four... well, the five major newspapers in Tokyo, and TV Tokyo is the more unique one.
The top four of the top five private broadcasters, that is, except for TV Tokyo, can be said to be created by newspapers and major film companies.
Therefore, it is understandable that TV Tokyo always seems so unique.
However, as far as news is concerned, the attitudes of these major newspapers can definitely affect the direction of public opinion on TV stations.
So, what is going on now?
They don’t quite believe the ‘big love’ between Takeshi Iwata and Akina!
The newspapers are full of question marks.
Of course Nakadai Tatsuya had seen it before, and he felt something was wrong.
Takei Iwata, you kid just won the Palme d'Or, and then he got involved with the hottest female star of the moment.
How can this person be the successor of Akira Kurosawa!
How is your boy different from Fukasaku Kinji?
Probably, this is what the legendary superstar thinks in his heart, but he won't complain like this.
What does Akira Kurosawa-sensei think of this matter?
"Hahaha……"
Unexpectedly, Akira Kurosawa burst out laughing while reading the newspaper.
"Teacher..." Nakadai Tatsuya was really confused. What happened to the teacher?
Kurosawa asked in return, "What do you think?"
Before Nakadai Tatsuya could react, he said with a serious face: "Although Supervisor Iwata seems to have some inappropriate considerations about love affairs, in terms of his talent, he should be regarded as one of the younger generation of supervisors in Japan, that is,
The best among the new wave supervisors."
Although he was complaining in his heart, Nakadai Tatsuya still helped Iwata Takeshi by saying good things.
However, Kurosawa Akira shook his head, "I want to ask you, what do you think of the relationship between Takeru and Akina?"
"Ah?" Nakadai Tatsuya was confused again.
"That is to say." Kurosawa emphasized, "Is it true or false?"
"This..." Nakadai Tatsuya didn't think about this issue at all. Yes, there were indeed many doubts in the newspapers, but this matter...
Wait a moment!
Nakadai Tatsuya also smiled.
"No way, no one believes that the two of them are dating, right?"
After the legendary superstar asked this question, he laughed louder.
This is especially true for Akira Kurosawa.
"Actually, I believe it. This thing should be true." The old man said what was in his heart.
Nakadai Tatsuya took up the conversation, "But I'm afraid the public won't believe it so easily."
After saying that, the two of them laughed endlessly.
Regarding the "big love" incident between Takeshi Iwata and Akina, will it be what they both expected?
…
Takeshi Iwata and Akina didn't return to Tokyo right away, but Tokyo had already exploded.
"In the end what happened?"
"Why did Akina announce her relationship?"
"What should we do now?!"
The first one to bear the brunt is Yanyin. As a very powerful firm in the entertainment industry, if there is a ranking, it is probably in the top three.
But as soon as the news of "Big Love" came out, everything was in a hurry!
Countless phone calls came directly to the office.
There are scolds, blessings, curses... everything is there.
Of course, the most people still... don't believe it!
Akina's assistant returned to China first. In fact, after Akina said those words in Cannes, the assistant knew that something was going to happen.
But things have come to this, and she can only do her best...and get scolded.
In fact, Yanyin is quite relaxed about its artists. Didn't Akina announce her relationship before?
But this time it was different, I was completely caught off guard, and the other thing was the target.
"Why is it Takeshi Iwata?"
"Does he have anything to do with being handsome?"
To be continued...
