Tokyo Literary Godfather

And another TV series is about to start production, which is "Victory is Justice 2" by Kei Fujiwara.

In order to bring Hideaki Shibasaki back, Kei Fujiwara finally agreed to cooperate with Fukuyamadai on the sequel.

However, this cooperation did not bring the relationship between Kei Fujiwara and Fukuyamadai closer, and the two are still in a state of cold war.

However, there was still cooperation during the Cold War, and the relationship was considered delicate.

In fact, Fujiwara Kei does not have too much grievances with Fukuyamadai in essence. The root cause is that he transferred to Fukuyamadai with Matsunichi Film and Nobi Mosuke's Liang Zi.

As a result, even though the director of Fukuyama TV very much wanted to restore the friendship between Qin and Jin with Shuibo Productions in his heart, he was worried about Matsuri Films and couldn't do anything at all.

Yoshida Kaishi secretly found Ninomiya Housheng again and said that he could help him gain the real authority of the station director instead of simply being a puppet. But Ergong was a coward by nature and never dared to truly agree. This made Yoshida Heshi extremely disappointed with him.

In fact, Yoshida Kashi sincerely hopes that Ninomiya can reorganize the TV station, not just because of Mizunami, but because he has been reporting at Fukuyama Station for so many years, and he does not want the TV station that has spent so much effort on It has become the messy mess it is now.

The TV station that originally had monthly broadcasts and sang all the way to become the top of the five major TV stations has become the last of the five major TV stations two or three years later, even worse than Dongdao. Thinking about this kind of thing is heartbreaking.

Since it is a sequel, there are still the same number of actors. The male and female protagonists are Miyata Takaharu and Kono Aoi respectively, but they are still filming movies in Fujiwara Kei's group. As soon as the movie scenes are completed, they will rush to the TV station to shoot.

The main creative members of "Victory is Justice 2" have been selected. As the screenwriter, Fujiwara Kei is also a member of the main creative team. However, due to his current close relationship with Fukuyamadai, Kei Fujiwara has almost no involvement in other work except providing scripts.

As usual, the work of selecting and interviewing actors for important roles was completely left to the supervisors and producers. Kei Fujiwara did not take the initiative to ask, and those people would not ask Kei Fujiwara for his opinion.

Originally, Kei Fujiwara was just using this script to replace Hideaki Shibasaki. It was just thrown away, so I didn't bother to pay attention to it.

But before the male and female lead actors could join the cast and officially start production, the producer of this drama actually came to the door, took out the cast list, asked Fujiwara Kei to review it, and solemnly mentioned: "If Mr. Fujiwara feels that any actor is not suitable, Please tell me frankly, we will go back and discuss it further with the production bureau officials."

Fujiwara Kei was a little surprised. These people had deliberately kept a distance from him before and deliberately not let him participate in the crew's affairs. Why did they suddenly come to visit them again? Is there any purpose?

Or is this a sign of goodwill from Fukuyama Taiwan? Or maybe this producer also wants to switch jobs to Shuibo Production?

In the midst of doubts, Kei Fujiwara opened the cast list, and what he saw was a familiar but somewhat annoying face. He suddenly understood it, and he couldn't help laughing in an instant.

The producer's face became even stiffer and he said: "After all, this is Mr. Fujiwara's work... If Mr. Fujiwara feels that an actor is not suitable for this role, please ask Mr. Fujiwara to exert influence on our station's production bureau... In fact, Mr. Kei Fujiwara’s weight in the hearts of the production bureau is greater than all of us combined.”

"No, I think it's very suitable." Kei Fujiwara suddenly closed the roster and handed it back to the producer, "Just follow this cast and film it. I wish the new drama a huge success."

As if from an outsider's perspective, the life or death of this show has nothing to do with me.

The producer looked at Kei Fujiwara, and after several seconds, he let out a sigh of reluctance.

"I understand... let's just shoot like this. We'll start shooting in half a month. If Mr. Fujiwara has time, please come and give us some advice."

"I'll go when I have time."

The producer left with a disappointed expression, and as soon as he left Kei Fujiwara's office, Kei Fujiwara shook his head subconsciously, "Fukuyamadai..."

The reason why he couldn't help laughing just now was because he saw the name "Miya Sato" on the cast list, and it was ranked third. The character she plays is "Takaka Ando," a suspect suspected of killing her husband.

Although "Victory is Justice" is a unit drama, each episode only talks about one case, but in the second part, there is a "femme fatale murdering her husband case" that runs throughout. From the first episode to the last episode, it is the most important case.

And this case also involves many ideas, the collision between two completely different legal schools, and the topic of whether the public's sense of justice is true justice. Gu Meimen's speech in the final defense, the debate on public opinion, is also the most weighty speech in the whole play.

“If democracy is brought to court, democracy is over.”

“Takawa Ando is indeed a poisonous insect that corrodes society and must be expelled, because the next person she seduce may be your husband, your lover, your father, your son, or maybe yourself. "

"Then sentence her to death, just sentence her to death. Although there is no definite evidence to prove that the poison found in the defendant's house was her poison. Let's sentence her to death. Although there is testimony that there is another suspected person at the scene Don’t worry about the poison bottle, let’s sentence her to death. She is allowed to drive around in a high-end imported car, wear designer clothes, and eat shark fin and foie gras every day, so let her be sentenced to death. This is public opinion..."

"What everyone agrees with is right, so there is nothing wrong with using violence. The thing about beating up my lawyer partner is also right because it is public opinion... What a joke!"

It can be said that the character Takawa Ando is also one of the soul characters of this show.

Kei Fujiwara had heard before that the role was originally intended for the famous actress Matsuo, but it was unexpectedly snatched by Mime Sato. It seems that a lot of thought has been spent.

And the reason why this producer came to find me seems to have an obvious intention. He didn't dare to offend Sato himself, so he wanted Kei Fujiwara to come forward in person and oppose this role arrangement, so that Miya Sato could be expelled from the crew and scored twice.

Moreover, the script has not yet been launched. If Kei Fujiwara expresses strong objection, even if Mizuba and Fukuyamadai do not deal with it now, the production bureau will carefully consider Kei Fujiwara's advice from a professional point of view, and it is very likely to adopt it.

The reason why the producers were so opposed to Sato playing this role was not because of how important the role was or how bad Sato's acting was. It's not about replacing the original heroine, and it won't have such a big impact on the ratings—she really considered replacing Kono Aoi as the leading role before, but was firmly rejected by the production bureau.

It's because Miya Sato has a really bad reputation now, and everyone knows that she was kicked out of the crew by Kei Fujiwara. Later, Matsuri Films arranged for her to be the heroine of another movie, because Kei Fujiwara's thunderous methods made her feel scared, and she had been honest for a while.

But the new crew was not as tough as Kei Fujiwara. In less than a month, she found the feeling of being a queen again, so the new crew soon became a mess.
