"The Fierce Man" was originally the first directorial work of Takeshi Kitano.

Now, Take Iwada has been directly used as a sensible person, and he is also preparing to play the male lead himself.

Sauce knife sack!

A fierce man made "The Fierce Man"?

Are you here?

Of course not!

Takeshi Iwada chose this movie, and there is a reason for him.

First, the original film was made very well and won many awards, which gave Takeshi Kitano's directorial career a good start.

Second, Takeshi Iwada remembers it very clearly that the cost of this movie should not be high.

This is the key!

Although I was unexpectedly going back 10 million yen, Iwada Takeshi was unsure of how much of this 10 million can do.

As for the current situation, 10 million yen is less than 100,000 US dollars.

It's really a shortage to make a movie for $100,000.

Takeshi Iwata must control the cost well.

If you come here by yourself and have such a fierce face, of course you have to make full use of it.

In this way.

Director, screenwriter, oh by the way, RB has the position of ‘supervisor’, so he took over the supervisor. Then, if the director on the spot, RB is called ‘show’, and he also took care of the performance. As for photography, he had also fiddled with it when he was in Hengdian before.

Be the hero again.

All are alive!

I Iwada Takeshi is an army... Oh no, it is a creative team.

Then why do you still curse when writing a script?

When a person concentrates on doing something, something special will occur.

For example, Michael Jordan will unconsciously stick out his tongue when playing basketball.

The same is true for Takeshi Iwada. He is concentrating on writing scripts, and he has completely brought himself into the plot of the movie.

Moreover, it is very exciting to write and scold while scolding.

In the movie, not only the male protagonist is a fierce man, but his opponent is also an extremely fierce man.

So.

Late at night, peaceful Tokyo.

However, some people write scripts until they are in a deep state, and they are cursing and scolding.

...

A few days later.

Jinbo Town, this place can be said to be the most literary and artistic place in the entire RB.

At a small intersection, there are more than a hundred bookstores.

Moreover, when you look south from the subway, you will see the famous Yiqiao Group not far away.

Elementary School Pavilion and ShueiShe are all here.

Shueisha in the 1980s was very interesting. Some people commented that the office building of Shueisha should be called the Shida Masami Building.

In short, it is often arranged with elements of Masami Kita and Saint Seiya.

It can be seen how popular his works are.

But about these things, he didn't care at all that the man who just stood out from the subway and had a bad face.

Takeshi Iwada came to Kamibocho. As a Yakuza, he seemed to be out of place with the natural ones here.

Although, he is wearing a very formal suit now, he doesn't feel like Yakuza at all.

So, is it for the purpose of buying books by a vicious guy?

no.

Movies are a very risky investment, and this risk is mainly reflected in distribution.

If the release is not done well, no matter how good the movie is, it will be difficult to succeed.

Takeshi Iwada is here to discuss the issuance.

But he walked straight to a bookstore and looked very familiar.

There are two words on the sign outside this bookstore that are particularly conspicuous.

Rock wave.

...

Strictly speaking, the current Yanbo Bookstore is different from the previous ones, although it is still in the three-story building purchased in 1920.

However, after the death of Shigeo Iwahara, the founder of Iwahara Bookstore, Iwahara Bookstore was no longer inherited by people from the Iwaha family, which gives people a feeling that it is not very authentic.

Shigeo Iwahara himself has made considerable contributions to the cultural development of RB, and one of them is the publication of Natsume Soseki's works.

Natsume Soseki's influence in the RB literary world may be controversial, but it is really difficult to find someone who surpasses him.

One thing is certain that almost all RB people have read his works.

For us Chinese, what we are more familiar with is his "I Am a Cat", but in RB, his "Heart" is more popular, which is in the textbook.

In Iwaha Bookstore, the first Natsume Soseki work published is "Heart".

However, the reason why this company was successful was because it led a trend.

coffee.

You can drink coffee while reading books, which was not available in RB before 1920.

At present, there is a man with a vicious look in the cafe that has a history of more than 60 years.

To be honest, there was something wrong with Iwada Takeshi himself sitting in such a place to drink coffee.

Maybe it was his Yakuza's psychology that seemed to be at work. It seemed that people like him should not come to such places.

But he has to come again because it is very crucial for his movies.

He has been drinking coffee for five consecutive days, and he has shown great sincerity and patience.

Unfortunately, no progress has been made in the past five days, and the people I want to see have not seen, but instead...

Very good, I always meet an old bald man, and this guy is always smiling when he looks at him.

Could it be an old glass?

How can I repair it! This guy has come over.

“Arnold…”

"Sir, are you doing something?"

Takeshi Iwada showed a polite attitude that was completely unrelated to Yakuza, with a smile and kindness on his face.

The old man smiled and said, "I have observed you for five days."

"Yes, I've been here for five days in a row."

"I'm sure, your face is very fierce."

"this……"

My blood pressure is coming up, is it still necessary to observe for five days?

But the old man continued, "Do you want to make a movie? I..."

Before he could finish his words, Takeshi Iwada interrupted, "I'm sorry, I'm planning to shoot the movie myself, I seem to be able to use my face better."

Take a photo by yourself?

The old man was shocked, but he didn't say much. He could see that the other party was driving people.

...

"Yamaguchi San, that person is here again."

"oh."

Akira Yamaguchi is currently the "store manager" responsible for the operation of the headquarters.

After all, Yanbo Bookstore is actually a publishing house, so the operation of a bookstore and a cafe must be distinguished from publishing and other things.

The person the waiter told him did attract Yamaguchi Akira's attention.

It's the fifth day, five consecutive days.
To be continued...
