Life in Tokyo starting as a child star

Although there is something strange about Tachibana Ayumi's expression.

But Kitumi Minori didn't pay much attention, she just smiled at him and walked to the interview table.

"AR Ziyue Training Center, Kitazumi Minoru, is 9 years old this year. Please give me your advice."

Saying that, Beicheng Minoru nodded.

"Um?"

I was attracted by Kitazumi's self-introduction.

Kitano Fumi raised his head, and the gel pen in his hand that recorded Tachibana Ayumi's performance just now stopped.

no way.

If we say Tachibana Ayumi is quite famous in the industry.

So Beicheng is actually famous all over the world.

Basically, all directors in the industry have heard of Kitami Minori's name more or less.

A very intuitive example. Among the top five box office hits in Japan this year, two of the movies were starring Minoru Kitazumi.

"Swordsman Den: Rejuvenation" has a total box office of 5.6 billion yen.

The other one is "The Grudge", with a total box office of 2.4 billion yen.

This box office performance is more intuitive than any hype.

Even Kitano Fumi, a director who doesn't pay much attention to the sub-contract industry, has heard of Kitami Minori's "big name".

But that's not what Kitano Fumi really cares about.

Kitano touched his chin and raised his eyes.

"Beicheng-kun, do you know Mr. Mikawa?"

Mr. Takeo Mikawa once recommended Kitumi Minoru to him, thinking that Kitumi Minoru was definitely Lu Zhiyuan's first choice.

And since that time, Kitano Fumi has been secretly attracted to Kitaki Minoru, a subordinate.

After all, this was the candidate recommended to him by Mr. Sanchuan.

"Ah, I do know Grandpa Sanchuan."

Unexpectedly, such a question was asked over there before the show started. Although it was a little strange, Kitazumi answered honestly.

After all, in the eyes of outsiders, he couldn't call Takeo Mikawa 'Old Master Mikawa', that would be somewhat disrespectful.

"Really? Mr. Sanchuan mentioned you to me, saying that you were the first choice for the role of Lu Zhiyuan."

The voice paused.

"But don't think that with Mr. Mikawa's recommendation, you can easily pass me. Whether you can get the role mainly depends on your own performance."

In order to prevent Kitacumi from thinking that everything would be safe with Mikawa Takeo's recommendation, Kitano Fumi reminded him emphatically.

Yes.

Mikawa Takeo's recommendation can at most make him pay more attention to Kitami Minori's performance, but that's all.

If Kitami Minoru's performance was average, even if Mikawa Takeo recommended him, he would not take such a big risk and adopt Kitazumi Minoru.

These words may be a bit complicated for an eight or nine-year-old child.

But Beicheng Minoru just showed an expression of understanding, smiled and nodded.

"Don't worry, I understand."

".Um."

Surprised by Kitaki Minoru's maturity, Kitano Fumi nodded and raised his hand to indicate that it was time to start.

At his signal, the female staff member next to him nodded, turned over the script, and began to read the lines.

"A Yuan, what's wrong? Is it really okay?"

This is a scene where Lu Zhiyuan is afraid of going to China and is worried that he will encounter even more severe bullying than he did in Japan.

Because he was too worried, Lu Zhiyuan closed the door and hid inside.

And this line is what the heroine Tezuka Yukie said when she was worried about her son and stood by the door to ask about his situation.

There was also a small emotional outburst during this period - years of discrimination from classmates, a sensitive and low self-esteem. These factors were combined. Not only did his mother's care not make the already precocious Lu Zhiyuan feel at ease, but it made him feel upset and angry. .

I don’t know how this son-in-law will handle this emotional outburst.

Kitanowen raised his eyes curiously.

Then he froze.

Because Kitumi Minoru was not in a hurry to say her lines.

He just smiled and lowered his head.

When lifted up again.

The gentle smile on his face had disappeared.

His hands were wrapped around his legs.

Squatting in place.

The black hair hangs down like a curtain.

And behind that curtain, there was a pair of extremely uneasy, shrinking black eyes.

He raised his eyes and looked in front of him.

Through Kitumi Minoru’s eyes and actions.

Kitano just felt that the place where the child looked was not an empty space.

In the world that Kitazumi sees.

There seems to be a door there.

Behind that was Yuki Tezuka, who kept banging on the door, concerned about his son's condition.

Is this acting expressive?

Kitano's back tensed slightly, and goosebumps appeared inexplicably on his body.

"The Reason I'm Here" is a script he wrote himself.

In other words, he is the person who knows the role of Lu Zhiyuan in the script best.

And looking at Kitazumi's extremely tense performance.

Kitano Wen felt a trance in front of him, as if Lu Zhiyuan, who was discriminated against by others and had received strange looks from his neighbors and classmates, had stepped out of the text, stepped out of the script, and came to reality.

This is no longer an open space, but Lu Zhiyuan's dark room used to hide from the outside world.

Just when Kitano Fumi had such an idea.

Squatting on the bed, Kitumi, who had been silent for the whole time, raised his head.

Under Kitano Wen's gaze.

That childish but precocious face was full of pain.

"Why did you give birth to me in Japan!"

"Why do I have to suffer this kind of treatment!"

"Go away! Go away! I don't want to go to China! I don't want to go anywhere--!!!"

When he said the last word, the impatience and anger that had been accumulated burst out.

Kitano Fumi even clearly saw Kita Sumire taking something out from the side and smashing it towards the non-existent door!

Bang! ! !

A heavy muffled sound.

Accompanied by Kita Sumire's voice that almost tore his throat.

This time it not only smashed on the ground.

It was more like smashing in the hearts of everyone present.

Many sub-servicemen were so scared that they dared not breathe.

The agents of several sub-servicemen training centers nearby looked at each other, opened their mouths, and couldn't say a word for a long time.

Kita Sumire's emotional expression. Isn't it too terrifying?

It was at this moment that Kitano Fumi reacted.

He was completely stunned-not because of Kita Sumire's acting skills.

But because of the thing Kita Sumire threw out.

Wasn't that the mineral water he had just left on the interview table and hadn't finished drinking?

When did this guy take this thing away?

What a fast speed!

He didn't notice it at all.

He only reacted when he saw Kita Sumi throw the thing out.

But it doesn't matter, it's just a bottle of mineral water.

The most important thing is

This time, the treasure actor was indeed found!

Kitano Fumi looked at Kita Sumi up and down with a sharp gaze, and felt that he couldn't let it go and that he was the only one who could do it.

He acted really well.

In that section just now, Kita Sumi really brought the role of Lu Zhiyuan to life.

To be honest, even if Kita Sumi's Chinese level is average, he can say that he has chosen Kita Sumi just based on his performance in the audition just now.

After all, Chinese can allow Kita Sumi to learn later.

It's really hard to find an actor with such acting skills.

However,

As a famous director, Kitano Fumi did not lose his mind - there are at least a dozen first-class actors waiting for auditions, he can't just let these people go home without giving them a chance, right?

After gradually calming down, Kitano Fumi picked up the script at hand.

In addition to his excellent acting skills, he also wanted to see for himself how good the Chinese level of this child actor named Kita Chengshi was.

He personally said to the play: "A Yuan, what's wrong? Is there anything good? You are so happy?"

This scene is that Lu Zhiyuan came to China to live for a while and found that the children here not only did not discriminate against him as a returned overseas Chinese, but took good care of him. In the future, he even took the initiative to help an old man.

He finally realized his mistake - it turned out that these children were all good people, and they were not full of prejudice and discrimination as the Japanese "Heavenly Threat Theory" smeared them.

Similarly, he also understood one thing, that is, bad guys who bully and discriminate against others are actually everywhere.

This has nothing to do with which country or which society - the discrimination and prejudice he encountered in Japan are much more serious than in China.

And this line is the question asked by his mother Yukie Tezuka when Lu Zhiyuan put aside all his worries and returned home.

"Yeah! Yes, Mom, I have encountered many good things."

The impatience and anger just now seemed like a lie.

There was no preparation or brewing.

Before, Kitasumi, who was full of impatience, smiled in the next second.

The speed of his expression change was so fast.

Even Kitano Fumi was a little stunned when he saw it.

Is this child's face made of plasticine?

The last second, he was full of impatience, and he wanted to rush out of the door and eat people alive.

The next second, he smiled with a pure and sunny expression?

Of course, this is not the most important thing.

The most important thing is

Is Kitasumi's Chinese so good?

As mentioned earlier, Kitano Fumi once lived in China for a period of time because of work.

So he still has some research on daily spoken Chinese.

And so.

When Kitasumi opened his mouth cleanly.

Kitano Fumi suddenly had an illusion.

It was as if the person standing in front of him was not a popular Japanese actor, but a real Chinese child star.

He spoke Chinese too fluently.

There was no Japanese accent at all.

His emotions were well expressed.

His innocent smile was perfect, making people feel comfortable and healed at a glance.

Even because Kitasumi's accent was too authentic.

Kitano Fumi didn't know how to continue the lines.

Because according to the setting, Lu Zhiyuan's daily language level should not have reached this level.

"Kitasumi, have you studied Chinese systematically before?"

Putting down the script, Kitano Fumi asked without hesitation - this Chinese level must be at the HSK level 4 standard?

However, the answer he got was unexpected.

"Huh? Uh, I haven't studied Chinese systematically. How should I put it? This should be an innate talent?"

Kitasumi's expression was a little weird, and he responded with a dry cough.

How should I put it.

Being asked if he had learned his mother tongue was indeed a bit complicated.

"Really?"

Kitano Fumi couldn't help but look at Kita Sumire for a second time, then shook his head.

Talent?

Before meeting Kita Sumire, he had seen a few actors who were more talented and were called geniuses.

But compared to this actor, the talents of those actors are not good enough.

But it doesn’t matter!

The higher the language proficiency, the better!

At worst, I can just let Kita Sumi lower her level later.

After all, it’s hard to perform well in spoken Chinese, but it’s too easy to perform poorly!

He nodded with satisfaction as he thought about it.

At the same time, the more I look at Kita Sumi, the more I like this actor.

Both his acting skills and Chinese proficiency are far up to standard!

I feel like this actor is the right one! There’s absolutely no problem!
