Most of the blessings and misfortunes in the world are caused by ourselves. Unfortunately, too few people can understand this.
Many people refuse to admit this.
People always think that blessings are brought by themselves, while disasters are framed by others. Others want to blame me, which is not what I want.
Among the Japanese, Kinji Fukasaku and Michiko Harada are such people.
Until now, they still thought that Matsumoto Keiko was an amiable person who they could bully at will without hitting back, scolding or scolding them.
Thinking they can do bad things without having to pay the consequences.
In their opinion, not to mention that there is no evidence, it is just a sore foot. As long as they are under the banner of Shochiku and consider the interests of Shochiku Pictures, Matsumoto Keiko can't do anything to them. .
But the problem is that the objective laws of reality will not allow such a thing to exist.
At least Ning Weimin, God’s darling, would not allow it.
So, they had no idea who was targeting them, and they were destined to have a mental collapse. The so-called retribution also existed.
As the old Chinese saying goes, good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with evil. It’s not that you won’t be rewarded because the time has not yet come.
…………
As the box office of the movie "Li Xianglan" approaches the 2 billion yen mark, March 22nd is quickly approaching.
This day is the day when the 10th Japan Film Academy Awards ceremony will be held.
The Japan Film Academy Awards (Japan Academy Awards) are also known as the Japanese Film Oscars.
Founded in 1978 and hosted by the Japan Academy Awards Association, it is the only major film award in Japan that has a live television awards ceremony.
Therefore, although the Japan Film Academy Award is the youngest of the four major film awards in Japan, on this day, all Japanese filmmakers are still proud to participate in the award ceremony, which is called the Japanese film industry. of the event.
According to the procedure, the Academy Awards ceremony should officially start at eight o'clock that night.
There will be a red carpet time where there will be a series of interviews, and fans of the show will come to the scene to cheer.
In terms of awards, there are awards for Best Film, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Foreign Language Film, Best Actor and Actor, Best Supporting Actor and Actor, and Topic Award, all of which will be announced that night.
All in all, the content and process of the Japanese Film Academy Awards are similar to those of the American Academy Awards.
However, it is worth mentioning that this year’s Academy Awards selection has a rather special feature. This is probably a situation that is rarely seen at the American Oscars.
That is the film that Shochiku Pictures participated in the competition for awards. It has an overwhelming advantage among all the films and is completely the only one.
I don’t know why. Last year, all the major Japanese film companies, except Shochiku Pictures, Toho, Toei, and Nikkatsu, released few quality films.
This results in the fact that among the five nominated films competing for Best Picture this year, only one is not a work of Shochiku Pictures.
Among the five nominated films for the Best Director award, three of them were actually produced by Shochiku Pictures.
To put it bluntly, this is just like buying lottery tickets, just because Songzhu has more lottery tickets in his hand.
So in this year’s Academy Award selection, whether it’s actors, cinematographers, screenwriters, editors, or scripts, Shochiku has a good chance of winning.
It can be said that the least suspenseful result of this year's Academy Awards is that Shochiku Pictures will definitely become the biggest winner.
This is also the reason why Shochiku Pictures’ President Omoto is willing to put in a lot of effort in the behind-the-scenes operations to win awards at this year’s Academy Awards.
Because there is almost no possibility of spending money in vain in Shochiku.
Anyway, I have been selected for so many films, no matter what the award is, I will win one more.
I believe that no matter how tricky the judges are, for the sake of money, there will always be one that can be approved, right?
As for other film companies, of course they voluntarily gave up the behind-the-scenes operations of the awards.
After all, the cost calculation of working on one film is different from working on three or four films.
It is purely thankless to insist on competing with Songzhu for awards. Even if you succeed, it is not worth it. Why waste money?
So for the judges, there is no need to confront Songzhu.
If nothing else, given the current situation, do they still have any choice?
If you want to receive some benefits and get some benefits, it seems that the only rich man is Shochiku Pictures.
As long as Songzhu doesn't be too greedy and insists on the winner taking all, which makes everyone lose face, then everything can be discussed easily.
But, then again, no one can shake Shochiku Pictures's win in this year's Academy Awards.
But within this framework, there is room for local operations.
Ning Weimin is a sudden change.
He used money to not only change some outcomes that had already been settled.
And it also allows others to see opportunities to take advantage of loopholes.
These people came to him again and worked with him to do the behind-the-scenes manipulation.
Successfully changed the seemingly unchangeable results before the awards were given.
Such a change was something that even Ning Weimin himself had not expected.
He had to say that everything is possible.
It was precisely because of thinking about this that he felt the magic of fate.
So much so that before leaving for the award ceremony, he was often in a daze.
"What are you thinking about?"
Matsumoto Keiko has just dressed herself up. She is wearing a burgundy dress today.
Looks as passionate and unrestrained as a gypsy girl, looking like a red rose.
However, this kind of attire also makes her skin look delicate and fair, as flawless as jade.
"I was thinking..." Ning Weimin paused, and suddenly his voice became hoarse when he spoke, "I was thinking about the results of today's awards..."
"What's there to think about?"
Matsumoto Keiko heard the discomfort in his throat, thoughtfully poured him a glass of lemonade, and then said extremely freely, "It doesn't matter what the outcome is. Anyway, I have won the Best Actress twice. Even if I come back empty-handed this time, it doesn’t matter..."
Ning Weimin picked up the cup and drank the lemonade in one breath. Whether it was out of gratitude or relief, he wanted to share it with Matsumoto Keiko. A piece of good news.
"I know that you are free and easy, and I also know that you are not vain. You don't really care about winning the award. But some people do. We should at least not let bad people get this award, shouldn't we?"
Matsumoto Keiko was stunned for a moment, "You mean..."
"I mean, you are my fiancée, you have been bullied, and as your future husband, I have the responsibility to protect you, I have an obligation to stand up for you and help you relieve your anger. I have always kept this in mind, and now I have finally done it. At this award ceremony, you should see the two people who slandered you leave empty-handed. If you want it, you will definitely not get it. "
This sentence contains a different meaning, and every word hits Matsumoto Keiko's ears like thunder.
Ning Weimin's sincere and hot gaze also burned her.
"Huh? But...but..." Keiko Matsumoto was a little at a loss, but after a long time, she couldn't come out. When she really understood, she realized what Ning Weimin might have done for her.
In the unexpected shock, her whole body became warm.
It was like a warm current flowing through her limbs and into her heart.
Ning Weimin in her eyes seemed to be given a soft halo under the soft light, giving her a feeling of being extremely handsome.
"But will it have a bad impact on you if you do this kind of thing? What if someone finds out. I don't want you because of me..."
However, another kind of worry involuntarily jumped out of her heart, but before she could finish speaking, she was stopped by Ning Weimin again.
“You don’t have to worry about anything! If I don’t even have the ability to protect you, how can I be your husband? Since we want to be together, you have to trust me. Leave everything to me with peace of mind. Me, I promise, I will be a good and qualified husband."
Ning Weimin's promise not only blocked what Matsumoto Keiko wanted to say, but also filled her heart with dense sadness. A feeling of happiness flowed over my chest like a rising tide.
Her pretty, flowery face was full of smiles, and her eyes seemed to be filled with stars, shining with a faint brilliance.
"I...understand, then...I'll ask Amin to take care of me from now on..."
Ning Weimin's eyes were deep and gentle, and he took Matsumoto Keiko's hand.
This expression and this move made Matsumoto Keiko almost melt.
But in comparison, Ning Weimin's love words blurted out were more heartwarming.
"Keiko, you are my weakness, but you are also my armor. As long as I am here from now on, you have nothing to fear..."
Matsumoto Keiko's heart at this moment It seems to have turned into a pool of spring water flowing gurglingly. His eyes are full of him, and his heart is full of him...
…………
As the most popular film under Songzhu Pictures to win the award this year.
The crew of "The Man on Fire" naturally received the invitation letter early, and the creative staff and main actors will all attend.
So the day started at three o'clock in the afternoon, and these people were preparing for the evening.
The actors put on makeup and changed clothes to avoid taking ugly photos that would affect their image.
Even Fukasaku Kinji dressed up carefully and put on a very formal dress.
He even asked a makeup artist to apply it on his face to prevent his facial features from being too blurry when he was photographed.
Not to mention Michiko Harada.
As one of the three main female characters in this film, she is determined to win awards and is ready to shine in front of the podium.
She cares more about her own image than the real number one heroine, Ryoko Ishida.
After all, this was the first time she had ever experienced, and it was also the highlight moment she had long expected.
So in addition to spending a lot of money from the beauty salon to hire a top-notch technician who had made an appointment in advance to do my hair and makeup, I also put on the outfits I got from hanging out with men these days, and even... I hid in my dressing room and recited my acceptance speech over and over again.
When everything was ready, they set off from Shochiku Pictures' headquarters together and rushed to the grand banquet hall of the Grand Prince Hotel New Takanawa International Building in Shinagawa Station.
Except for Matsumoto Keiko's absence, she had already informed President Omoto in advance that she would go alone.
All other crew members traveled in vehicles equipped by Shochiku Pictures.
Naturally, Fukasaku Kinji and his mistress Michiko Harada were riding in the first car.
However, along the way, he was not in a good mood.
Remembering that I was being coerced by Shochiku Pictures’ president Junichi Okimoto, I still wrote a flattering article for Matsumoto Keiko’s movie against my will and published it in the same newspaper that had originally criticized Matsumoto Keiko.
And for this, I received many letters from readers that ridiculed me.
Thinking again that after Matsumoto Keiko made a blockbuster movie, as the boss of a production company, she was able to stand out and have privileges that even he did not have, how could he be happy?
So we were halfway through the journey, and the car was still very quiet.
Michiko Harada has been observing carefully.
She found that Fukasaku Kinji was just looking out the window, except that she could feel his sighs.
His gloomy expression can also be seen in the image reflected from the car window glass.
"What's wrong? Director, you seem very tired recently?"
Michiko Harada's voluptuous body in a green evening dress approached Fukasaku Kinji, deliberately showing concern.
But even in such a private environment, this director, who was very lustful at heart, did not hold her waist as usual.
Instead, he said without looking back, "Please just shut up, I'm fine."
We haven't seen each other for several days. This is not like the lover who cherishes her beauty and cherishes her beauty. words.
Michiko Harada couldn't help but look aggrieved, a little at a loss, "Director, did I say something wrong? Can I apologize to you?"
But he didn't expect that such words would make Fukasaku Kinji even more irritated, "Baga, can't you just let me stay quietly for a while?"
Michiko Harada was surprised and extremely sad.
The usual Fukasaku Kinji, even though he was tyrannical, still tried to maintain a gentlemanly demeanor, and he had never scolded her so unreasonably.
So she couldn't help but become nervous and had some uneasy premonition.
After thinking about it, I still couldn't help but ask, "Director, are you nervous? Could it be... is there something wrong with the awards? Don't scare me. Back then... you promised My..."
"Do you doubt me again? You also know that I have arranged everything. Then stop doubting randomly, okay? It's really stupid. I don't want to hear such words again, you stupid woman. You are suspicious, what are you thinking! Say no more, no It's just an Academy Award. As for putting on such a poor look that has never seen the world! For me, only awards from international film festivals are attractive."
Fukasaku Kinji's resentment. It completely broke out, and at the same time, I became accustomed to bragging and flaunting myself.
Although Michiko Harada was scolded so badly, she could only listen with her eyes wide open.
At this time, she really didn't dare to speak anymore, she recognized the reality.
Today's Fukasaku Kinji has simply become a powder keg, which cannot be touched and will explode as soon as he touches it.
And she was really sad, so full of resentment and grievance that she almost cursed.
She gritted her teeth and endured it silently. She finally stayed until Fukasaku Kinji had vented enough and returned her attention to the evening scenery outside the car.
She held back her tears and turned her head to look outside in anger.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to cry, but she didn’t dare to cry because she was afraid that her makeup would be ruined.
However, all the grievances turned into hatred in my heart.
Men are assholes! Hum, you will brag!
You are obviously in a bad mood, but you only know how to take out your anger on an innocent person like me!
Don't do this. I'm not your wife. Why should I tolerate your bad temper?
Let me get my wish today! If you dare to lie to me! Then don’t even think about it!
In the car at this time, the man and woman no longer had any gentle atmosphere, but looked like a pair of resentful couples. (End of chapter)
