She dominates the entertainment industry with her disaster system

Su Lingxi received her gaze and responded with a gentle smile.

If nothing unexpected happens, the role of Erika Uezono will eventually fall into the hands of the person in front of him.

After all, everyone has witnessed Suzuki Ami's performance just now, and what Kitagawa Yoshiko said, "Give her an answer in three days", is actually just an excuse to give Ishihara Takashi some face.

only……

Thinking of the look in their eyes that showed neither of them willing to give in, Su Lingxi inexplicably had a bad premonition.

In essence, the conflict between Ishihara Takashi and Kitagawa Yoshiko is like the collision between the new century and the old things. It cannot be said to be a deep hatred, but they both cannot stand each other's behavior.

This kind of minor friction can be ignored in daily life, but if it happens in a work environment, it will be magnified exponentially - especially in film and television crews, where it is not uncommon for big troubles to arise due to personal conflicts.

But the work of producers and directors requires frequent contact, and it is difficult to avoid it.

According to Su Lingxi's idea, if a different producer could be in charge of this film...it might be the best outcome.

Of course, considering that Ishihara Takashi and Fujita Ryo had a good relationship, she did not say this suggestion out loud.

Glancing at the two people who were laughing and discussing crew matters not far away, Su Lingxi felt a little uneasy.

It would be nice if we could keep pretending to be harmonious until the end of the shooting period.

……

Probably to accommodate the schedules of Su Lingxi and Takeuchi Marin, the crew of "The Hiroo Murder Case" was assembled very quickly. It took less than half a month to complete the casting process and officially start filming on the Tokyo set.

This drama mainly revolves around investigating a case, so most of the scenes are set in the studio, with very few outdoor scenes, and there is basically no trouble with framing - the production budget is therefore perfectly controlled within 100 million yen.

In mid-October, the crew members gathered in Tokyo, Japan, and officially began the expected three-month filming.

In the first few days after the filming started, the atmosphere among everyone was pretty good. In addition to talking about work and gossip in the circle, their favorite topic of discussion was the nominations for the main competition unit of this year's Tokyo Film Festival, and guessing whether Su Lingxi could win an award this time.

Compared with previous foreign actors, the crew members of "The Hiroo Murder Case" obviously accepted Su Lingxi, a foreigner who could speak fluent Japanese.

Marin Takeuchi once said jokingly: If no one specifically reminds her, many people would probably think she is actually a Japanese actress.

But as time passed, the atmosphere within the crew gradually changed.

At the beginning, Kitagawa Yoshiko accidentally had an argument with Ishihara Takashi over the picture design. Then, funding, actor role arrangements...all kinds of things became the fuse for the dispute between the two.

One is a young and energetic director, and the other is an experienced veteran producer. The former cares about the picture and artistic sense, while the latter is more realistic and cares more about the budget and profit.

The two people's ages, experiences and personality traits lead to completely different views on the same thing.

In fact, up to this point, Su Lingxi still felt that there was room for improvement - as long as both sides took a step back, some of the quarrels could be avoided to a large extent.

But it was obvious that Ishihara Takashi was not willing to give in to them. He even went a step further and put forward a more ridiculous idea - he wanted to kick Kitagawa Yoshiko out of the position of director.

"Wait, Ishihara, you mean you want someone else to direct this film?" Matsumoto Shuichi, who was also one of the producers, was surprised. "But... she also wrote the script for this film... I'm afraid your idea will be difficult to realize smoothly."

The production lineup of "Hiroo Murder Case" seems to be luxurious and eye-catching, but in fact, the ones with the most say are the famous producer Takashi Ishihara, the famous director, actor and guest star Shuichi Matsumoto, and the representative sent by the largest investor Toho Company, Koizumi Koji.

Apart from these few big names, the composition of other production team members is very complex, but in the final analysis, they have little say in the crew.

Ishihara Takashi wanted to kick Kitagawa Yoshiko out, but he alone had no say and it depended on the opinions of the other two parties.

"It's hard to believe that your relationship with Kitagawa has become so bad? I remember you two seemed to have known each other for a long time?" Koizumi Hiroji, who had been silent, couldn't help but ask.

There was no one in the room at the moment, and Ishihara Takashi was too lazy to pretend to be hypocritical during the day. "What's the point of knowing each other earlier? This kid is too young and too impetuous. He hasn't learned any real skills from Director Fujita at all."

"I have no problem with her, but if we allow this conflict to continue, the final product of the film may be far below our expectations, which is a situation I don't want to see."

Ishihara Takashi's expression was very sincere, but Koizumi Koji felt that his words were a bit false - "The Hiroo Murder Case" was decided from the beginning to be a film project written and directed by Kitagawa Yoshiko. She was both the screenwriter and the director, and the company headquarters also believed that she could restore the plot to the greatest extent possible.

The film has already started shooting for almost a week. If the director is changed at the last minute, who can guarantee the filming results?

Ishihara Takashi's behavior seems more like he wants to turn the crew into a one-man show for his family.

What Koizumi Hiroji could hear was wrong, so naturally Matsumoto Shuichi could also feel it.

But he did not express his opinion immediately. Instead, he mentioned Koizumi Koji's name and shifted the pressure to others. "Mr. Koizumi, you represent Toho and are our largest investor. Tell me what you think."

Koizumi Koji cursed inwardly that we were cunning, and whispered his own opinion: "The company fully believes in our ability and has no objection to any decision. As long as we can guarantee the box office, all decisions are based on profit results."

"But... I think it will be difficult to find a director who knows this story better than Kitagawa Yoshiko to take over the project in the short term, right?"

Ishihara Takashi snorted indifferently and said bluntly, "Kitagawa is a talented child, but she obviously can't bear such a heavy burden. Maybe we should consider other candidates. Iwata Atsushi has also served as a performance assistant to Director Fujita. In my opinion, he is a better choice for us."

Hearing this name, Koizumi Hiroji and Matsumoto Shuichi fell silent at the same time.

Of course, they only remained silent on the surface, but in fact they had already begun to quickly think about the real purpose of Ishihara Takashi's behavior today.

And...what role does Atsuya Iwata play in this matter?
