It's already winter, and it stands to reason that it's hard to heat up in Tokyo.

However, public opinion in Tokyo is different now.

too hot.

“Takeshi Iwata is exploiting Japan’s tragedy to earn his own fame!”

"The movie "Nobody Knows" is really shockingly bad! The whole movie is so slow that it makes you sleepy!"

"It's really unimaginable that Takei Iwata, with his great reputation, could actually make such a movie!"

On the one hand, the right-wing people started clamoring again.

As long as they can find a channel for it to happen, they will criticize "Nobody Knows" vigorously, just like a group of vicious dogs trying to bite their prey.

This phenomenon is naturally eye-catching, and many people have launched a counterattack.

""Nobody Knows" is gentle and calm, but shocking!"

“The best movie of the year!”

"Even this is Iwata-san's transformational work! It's very successful!"

There are also many people who praise me.

The two sides were quarreling fiercely in newspapers and magazines.

Some magazines simply list the views of both sides and let them directly confront each other in the publication.

As for TV stations, they will be more able to take advantage of their own advantages.

"What those politicians say is bullshit!"

"Japan needs supervision like Takeshi Iwata!"

"Seriously, are these things true? I really don't know, but after watching the movie, I was really moved!"

The biggest advantage of TV stations over newspapers and magazines is that they can contact ordinary viewers and guests in real time.

This advantage is really huge. The Internet is not yet popular at present. In fact, this is also an advantage of the Internet. Moreover, the Internet is faster than TV stations.

And this advantage is a strong sense of substitution and authenticity. The things written in newspapers and magazines, indeed, they also have their own credibility, but after all, they are said by others. After all, they are manuscripts produced by reporters and editors. Are they true?

It's true, I can't say for sure.

However, as long as the audience makes a phone call, it is possible to participate. This level of participation cannot be matched by at least newspapers.

Moreover, this can’t be fake, it’s so real.

As a result, it naturally occurred that more attention was paid to television programs.

That is to say, many movie fans and ordinary citizens feel that "Nobody Knows" is indeed an excellent movie.

Of course, there are also some people who support the right wing and call in to talk nonsense and say some very extreme things.

But currently, after the movie "Nobody Knows" was released for some time, public opinion has changed considerably.

There are more and more people supporting Takeshi Iwata!

But will this change have a greater or more severe impact?

…

Fukasaku Kinji has a lot more white hair than before. Although he has always shown himself to others as having white hair, now, this seems to indicate that he is older.

No, I am still the same supervisor, just as energetic!

But at the end of 1993, he was a little confused.

"Fukasaku-san, Takeshi Iwata, you must not let him go!"

"With our support behind you, there will be no problem!"

"The current situation is actually very simple. All we need is Fukasaku-san to use his own prestige to prevent this film from entering the selection."

Some right-wing guys came to lobby him, hoping that his director Fukasaku Kinji would intervene to prevent "Nobody Knows" from entering the Japan Film Academy Awards jury.

This matter...

To be honest, after all these years, the grievances between Takeshi Iwata can be considered over.

At least he, Fukasaku Kinji, knew in his heart that when it came to movies, he was no match for that boy, and when it came to other aspects...

That kid seems to be even more powerful.

After all, Fukasaku Kinji is not an ordinary supervisor. He has been filming gangster movies for a long time. He knows many Yakuza, and his immediate boss is also the former team leader of Yakuza.

Therefore, in terms of news, it is much better than others.

He knew that Takeshi Iwata's identity was very mysterious, and he was probably...

Yamamoto-gumi’s shadow!

If it is this identity...

Yes, Fukasaku Kinji was sure that he couldn't afford to offend him, but the Yakuza organization he was friends with was not easy to deal with the Yamamoto group.

Of course, currently, the largest Yakuza group in Japan is the Yamamoto group.

But it's not like there's nothing else.

Life in Yakuza has not been easy in recent years. It is said that many people from the Yamamoto group have gone to the construction site.

Actually this is not bad, some Yakuza are real scum, they sell awakening agents.

But in any case, the two supervisors Fukasaku Shin and the Yamamoto group are not directly related, and there are grievances between them.

It’s true that I can’t afford to mess with Takeshi Iwata, but if I can mess with this guy, that’s okay.

However, this matter is not simple.

This year, oh by the way, it should be the Japan Film Academy Awards next year. The issue of this award is really not simple.

He has also watched "Nobody Knows". For this movie... Takeshi Iwata is really good at filming.

From a cinematic perspective, this movie is really great.

The gentle lens, the calm film language, the warmth of the family, everything is a beautiful feeling.

But in the end, there was a sudden and huge reversal. The brother who was originally taking care of his younger siblings accidentally killed his younger sister.

It was like a punch to the heart.

Moreover, it was a very calm punch.

Awesome, really awesome.

This guy's previous gangster movies actually had many scenes that were very artistic.

That kind of strong sense of literature and art is definitely not something ordinary people can capture.

Well, what on earth did I think?

Why send a Yakuza to some art university?

Of course these complaints are useless.

In fact, the key to this matter lies in the issue of awards.

Japan Film Academy Awards, also known as Japanese Oscars.

The deadline for this award is not as strict as stipulated.

According to the Oscars in the United States, after all, ours is a copycat Oscar, so the deadline for the awards should be set to end in December.

However, due to Japan's special habits, that is, the deadline for many established film awards is set at the end of November.

Movies in December have to be counted next year.

Therefore, the "flexible time" of the Japan Film Academy Awards is originally an improvement, but it can also be regarded as a compromise.

After all, this is the real Oscar for those who are not completely educated.

But in this matter, there is a lot of room for maneuver.

Kinji Fukasaku is very clear that Japan's right-wing groups intend to make some articles through this movie.

This probably has a lot to do with the previous election of Morihiro Hosokawa as prime minister.

This man was the first non-LDP person to win an election and become prime minister in Japan after the war.

The Liberal Democratic Party is the largest right-wing party in Japan. Of course, this is a bit too general. After all, there are many pro-China supporters among them.

But now, many people have come out of this party and formed a new group, at least united under Hosokawa Morihiro.

So of course the old guys, the old conservative right-wing forces, have to do something.

This film "Nobody Knows" has been the subject of much publicity before, and it happens to be directly related to Hosokawa Morihiro.

Now it is very necessary to do it again.

Do it all at once and win votes.

Fukasaku Kinji is indeed a scheming supervisor, he has seen through these things.
