Chapter 654 A or B, this is a multiple choice question

To convince Takeshi Kitano to serve as the supervisor of "Code M", Kiyoshi Sakamoto didn't have much confidence and could only go all out.

Takeshi Kitano's shots are fierce, direct and abrupt, and the shooting techniques use as little close-ups, slow motion, and direct lyrical expressions as possible to arouse the audience's sympathy, and use cool tones for processing.

Use heavy tones to create tension between characters.

The feature is the combination of movement and stillness, warmth and fighting. Just now it was a playful scene, and in an instant it is a life-and-death dispute.

In his opinion, Takeshi Kitano is the best person to direct the spy movie.

But, if that doesn't work, he has a plan B.

Takashi Miike, who has worked with him on two films and has a very good relationship, is also a supervisor with outstanding directing style and very experienced action design.

If he were to direct "Code M", the quality of the movie would not be much worse.

However, it would be best if Takeshi Kitano could agree. . .

His thoughts returned to reality again, looking at the script in the hands of General Kitano and putting it back on the table, Kiyoshi Sakamoto said with some hesitation, "What do you think?"

Even if he tried to see some clues from Takeshi Kitano's face, he couldn't read any useful information from the paralyzed expression on his face, so he could only ask directly.

"Hmm... very good story. It's a bit like "Bourne Shadow", but with some other ideas."

"However, at the end of the story, it can be seen that you have left a foreshadowing. You are planning to make this story into a series of movies, right?"

As expected of a leader in Japanese movies, Takeshi Kitano saw Kiyoshi Sakamoto's intentions from the script.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was pointed out, was not too surprised, nodded directly and said yes, "Yes, when I was creating this story, I thought about making this story into a series of movies, just like "007", "Spy" Like "Shadow Heavy"."

"Then why don't you take the film yourself, but invite me to do it?" Tapping his fingers on the sofa, Takeshi Kitano could not hear his inner thoughts in his tone, "It stands to reason that you, as the screenwriter, are responsible for this story Of course, the creator is the best person to visualize this story, so why do you want to find me?"

Faced with Kitano Takeshi's question, Sakamoto Kiyoshi replied very honestly: "I think that with my ability, I can't shoot the effect I thought of. That's why I thought of inviting Kitano-san, you to be the supervisor of the film .”

"Oh? I think your directing ability is pretty good. The filming of "Those Years" was pretty good..."

"Although the picture composition and narrative method are relatively simple, the emotion and soul that the film wants to convey are well expressed."

"You're too much." Sakamoto Kiyoshi responded to Takeshi Kitano's praise with a smile, and then said, "It was after the filming of "Those Years" that I realized that my directing ability still needs to be improved."

"To be honest, I don't think I have enough ability to make this story well."

"So, in order not to ruin this story, I need a master like you to direct."

From the serious expression on his face and the clarity of his eyes, it can be seen that what he said came from the heart.

At least according to Takeshi Kitano, that is the case.

"Hmm..." Facing Kiyoshi Sakamoto's invitation, Takeshi Kitano certainly wouldn't make a decision right away, but after pondering for a moment, he gave an answer that Kiyoshi Sakamoto expected.

"Give me some time, I'll think about it."

"Of course, you think about it slowly. If you have any questions about the script, you can contact me at any time."

Although Takeshi Kitano is very interested in the story of "Code M", he also thinks this will be a brand new attempt.

However, he still had some concerns in his heart, so he didn't immediately agree.

After filming "Extreme Evil and Injustice", Takeshi Kitano was actually looking for ideas for his next work.

Originally, he had thought about starting the preparations for "The Heinous 2" from now on, and then the filming could start in the spring of next year.

However, at this time, Kiyoshi Sakamoto brought the script of "Code M" and delivered it to his door, disrupting his plan.

"Code M" is a brand-new theme, and it is also an action movie that he has a lot of room for development.

This made him fall into a vacillating state for an instant.

Should he choose "Heinous and Inhumane 2" whose script has not yet been completed, or choose to accept Sakamoto Kiyoshi's invitation to film "Code M" with a complete story?
This is an A or B multiple choice question.

. . . . . . .

Kitano Takeshi's hesitation did not surprise Sakamoto Kiyoshi.

It was impossible for him to hold a movie script and come to the door in person. After Balabara said a few words, Mr. Kitano Takeshi agreed to him and became the movie's supervisor.

Sakamoto Kiyoshi does not have that kind of arrogance, and such a plot will only appear in mindless YY novels.

Being able to get Takeshi Kitano to say "think about it" is enough to make Kiyoshi Sakamoto return with satisfaction.

Coming out of Kitano Takeshi's house, Sakamoto Kiyoshi just got into the car when he received a call from Uncle Ishida.

On the phone, Uncle Ishida brought him good news.

"Qing, the matter of red and white has a clue."

"Oh?!" Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was leaning on the back seat of the car, frowned and raised his voice, "Are you in the company? I'll be right there."

"Boom" With the sound of the engine starting, the car sped away. . .

After half an hour.

"You mean, we have entered the final selection, and there is only one opponent left?"

"That's right!"

"who is it?"

"Jennis' Lan!"

Sitting on the sofa in the office, Kiyoshi Sakamoto got the latest information about the selection of the red and white hosts from his manager.

Since receiving the news that NHK was going to replace Masahiro Nakai and choose a new host of Kohaku, Kiyoshi Sakamoto started planning, using the power and connections of SME to operate THE SUN to become the new host of Kohaku.

After several months of public relations and private contacts, there are only two groups of candidates for NHK's final candidates.

SME's THE SUN, and Johnny's Lan.

"Originally, our chances of winning were not too obvious. Compared with Johnny's, it was only [-]-[-]." Uncle Ishida paused suddenly, "But!"

Suddenly, Uncle Ishida's expression of "Quickly ask me!" made Kiyoshi Sakamoto laugh in his heart, and asked very cooperatively, "But?"

Very satisfied with Kiyoshi Sakamoto's cooperation, Uncle Ishida said with a proud expression: "However, the strong box office of "Those Years" you directed just made the vacillating NHK make up its mind!"

The success of "Those Years" is like a heavy weight, pushing the balance in the hearts of NHK executives to THE SUN's side.

"Oh?! That means we..."

"That's right, we won the battle between red and white hosts!"
