Ultra Galaxy: If you have a mountain in your heart, everywhere is the mountain behind you

"Kinjo, it's hard to create a good script by working hard alone." Jissoji Akio pushed Fujiki in front of Tetsuo Kanjo and smiled at him.

Then he grabbed another editor, Masazo Uehara, who was in the room, and led them outside.

"That's it. You guys keep up the good work. I'm going to have a drink with Uehara."

After saying that, he hurriedly left the screenwriter's office, ran outside and drove away.

Jincheng watched the two people leave and shook his head helplessly.

"This difficult problem that Mr. Enko Eiji left me... is really too difficult." Tetsuo Kaneshiro tore a piece of draft paper on the table into a ball and threw it on the ground.

His face was full of melancholy.

Judging from the paper ball at his feet, Jincheng has probably been struggling here for a long time.

Fujiki looked at Tetsuo Kaneshiro who was leaning his head on his hand and thinking hard.

He was wearing a tan short shirt, grey trousers, a silver watch on his wrist, and his short black hair was neatly combed, making him look quite handsome.

This is, "The man who created Ultraman".

Tetsuo Kaneshiro is the chief screenwriter of "Ultra Q" and the creator of the special drama "Ultraman", which will become a sensation and have an impact across centuries.

In another parallel universe, he would still be the editor-in-chief of Ultra Seven.

"The Messenger of Nongmalt" and "The Street of Snipers" were both written by this screenwriter. His anti-war ideas brought important soul to the early Ultraman series of special effects dramas and continue to influence future heroes.

"Mr. Jincheng...what are you worried about now?" Fujishu moved a chair over, sat next to him, and asked with a serious face.

I heard Fujishu speak.

Tetsuo Kaneshiro also cast his gaze over.

He looked up and down at the Victory Team uniform that Fujiki was wearing.

"Newcomer, your clothes are nice."

"Maybe...it can be used in some kind of...some kind of defense organization."

As soon as he saw the vine tree, some vague inspiration suddenly popped up in Jincheng's mind.

In this new scenario...maybe there can be some special defense organizations.

Thinking of this, he immediately wrote down the ideas in his mind on a piece of draft paper.

After closing the pen cap with a "click", Jincheng's gaze towards Fujishu was no longer so casual.

The guys who can bring inspiration to him are definitely not simple.

It was also at this moment that he officially regarded Fujiki as a colleague.

"Fuji...Fujimoto-kun, right?"

"Ah...right!" Although Fujiki really wanted to correct his name and said that it was actually Fujiki, he nodded in response as he had to borrow the identity of Mr. Fujimoto after all.

"You should also know...the "Ultra Q" project we are currently working on." Tetsuo Kaneshiro turned around, put one hand on the back of the wooden chair, and gestured with the other hand and spoke to him.

"This is the first work since Mr. Madoka Eiji founded the company. Considering the revenue issue, he decided to stick with the monster series he is most familiar with, and asked me to write the script."

"But... Mr. Madoka Eiji soon told me that we couldn't just film monsters, we needed... something more special."

"In addition to Ultra Q, he also wanted me to create something that would be even more popular, something that would make more people think, and something that would be different from the previous monster series."

"Honestly... this is too hard."

“I really can’t think of anything that can top Godzilla.”

Jincheng poured out to Fujishu all the grievances he had experienced during this period of time.

"I wrote several scripts, but Mr. Tsuburaya Eiji's son, now Director Ichi Tsuburaya, was always dissatisfied after reading them."

“Problems in all aspects.”

“It has to be innovative, interesting, and profound, while also ensuring that people will like it.”

"I now even suspect that Mr. Madoka Eiji may have made a mistake in choosing me. I simply do not possess such talent."

Jin Cheng finished speaking and sighed deeply.

You can hear it.

He suffered a lot during this period.

Fujishu listened, with mixed emotions surging in his heart.

It turns out...the creation of Ultraman was not all smooth sailing. Although "Ultraman" began airing two weeks after the completion of "Ultra Q", in fact, the idea of ​​"Ultraman" had already appeared when "Ultra Q" was being filmed.

Facing the dejected look on Tetsuo Kaneshiro's face.

After thinking for a moment, Fujishu spoke slowly.

"Mr. Jincheng, I think...what we need is a hero."

"hero?"

"You mean... like Superman?" Tetsuo Kaneshiro immediately thought of the classic comic "Superman".

But soon he shook his head again.

"Superman's style doesn't really fit with us, and that's not the kind of story we want to create."

Tetsuo Kaneshiro had thought about this direction before, but it was quickly rejected by director Tsuburaya.

After all, the main point of their creation of the monster series, especially "Ultra Q", is to reflect the problems exposed in the current society and cause people to reflect.

"No, Mr. Jincheng." Fujiki said to him solemnly, "It's not Super man, but...Ultra man."

"Ultraman?"

"Correct."

"When people encounter a crisis that cannot be solved, Ultraman will appear as a hero."

"He can be a giant as huge as a monster, coming from outer space, helping people solve problems they can't solve."

Fujiki's words were as light as wings.

But to Tetsuo Kaneshiro's ears, it was like a huge rock that stirred up huge waves.

"Wait a minute!" Jincheng shouted, feeling as if he had grasped something vague in his head.

He quickly picked up the pen on the table and started writing and drawing on the draft paper.

"Continue to retain the monster elements... and then add a hero who can fight monsters on this basis..." Jincheng muttered to himself as he wrote.

"If Ultra Q is about raising problems and letting humans solve them themselves... then this script can solve the problems that have troubled me before. A hero who can solve problems that humans cannot cope with... Yeah."

"I can even make the conflict more acute... and let this... this Ultraman solve it. This way, it can make people reflect, but it won't make the audience feel fearful and desperate when watching it, because our hero can bring hope."

"And...what else..."

Jin Cheng thought of this and scratched his cheek, and the fleeting inspiration disappeared.

It made him a little irritated.

He felt that what he thought of now was just the tip of the iceberg.

I need more inspiration!

Jin Cheng thought so, then turned his head and looked at Fujishu with burning eyes. He stood up and walked in front of Fujishu, patted Fujishu's shoulders with both hands, and said sincerely: "Fujimoto-kun, please help me again!"

"Please tell me...what kind of existence is the Ultraman in your mind?"

Fujishu was stunned after hearing this.

The question wasn't asking him what Ultraman looked like.

But something deeper...what exactly is Ultraman to Fujiki.

The dozens of tall figures that he had seen in his previous life kept flashing through Teng Shu's mind. Those majestic giants of light brought him... so much.

Now at this moment, he was sitting here and talking with Jincheng.

We're not just discussing the script for Ultraman.

But...through the man who created Ultraman, and the heroes who have had a profound impact on him.

"Ultraman...Ultraman is a very special existence to me..." Fujiki's thoughts were surging in his mind, and he opened his mouth to answer Jincheng's question.

But he found that his throat had become a little hoarse.

Fujiki took a deep breath.

Organize your emotions.

Smiled slightly.

after that.

He spoke again.
