Chapter 635 Conan: Requesting Backup!
A group of people sat down.
Mouri Ran said "Sorry" to the others before Shiro Kawabata started talking about serious business.
"It's like this, we are currently working on filming a Movie. This is the original author, Mr. Kyogo Kitaura, this is Director Mr. Kaizo Isozaki, and this is Assistant Director Mr. Motozura Ito," Shiro Kawabata introduced the other three people, and continued to Mouri Ran, "However, before the Movie starts filming, the Female Lead had an accident and can't perform. We can only find a new Female Lead. Miss, when we saw you at first glance just now, we all felt that you are very suitable to play the Female Lead. I wonder if you would be willing to participate in the Performance of this Movie?"
"Act in a Movie?" Mouri Ran hesitated a bit, "Me, is it okay for me?"
"No problem at all!" Shiro Kawabata said with certainty, "You are very suitable for that Role!"
"I think it's better to forget it. If she stutters her Dialogue, it will be very embarrassing!" Mori Kogoro, who was sitting aside, suddenly started to boast about himself, "Of course, if she is like her Old Dad, and what she says can make everyone present feel reasonable and well-argued, then that's another matter..."
Conan gave him Half-Moon Eyes. The one performing those Deduction Show was clearly him...
Mouri Ran was a little hesitant and asked again, "By the Way, putting me aside for now, do you have something to discuss with Brother Hissashi?"
"It's still the same thing, but it's another Movie that I am responsible for producing," Shiro Kawabata smiled and said to Chi Feichei again, "The Director of that Movie is the Director of 'Detective Samonji'! That is a series of Movies, probably there will be three. If the response is good, there will also be sequels and TV Drama. You can consider it carefully. He has been troubled for a long time because he can't find a suitable Male Lead, but it's really my Luck to meet you two today. If you can agree, that would be the best!"
"The Director of 'Detective Samonji'," Conan felt that these people were looking for the wrong person to film a Movie with Chi Feichei, but it didn't stop him from being curious, "Is the Movie he wants Brother Ike to film also a Detective Series?"
"No," Shiro Kawabata explained with a smile, "He plans to film the Onmyoji Series Movie. As the Male Lead of Onmyoji, he will deal with some legendary Monster. In fact, before he filmed Detective Movie, he also filmed Samurai Movie and Movies with legendary Monster. This time, he wants to try to fuse Folk Tales and Action..."
"That Movie will have some fight scenes. That Fellow is quite considerate of the actors. When it's time to arrange a Substitute Performer to go on stage, he will arrange a Substitute to go on stage," Kaizo Isozaki said with a cold and gloomy face, "However, since you have become an actor, you must be careful of accidentally losing your life on set."
Silence.
The Atmosphere froze for a moment, and everyone else's faces became more or less subtle.
Conan was curious, "Accidentally losing your life on set?"
"Hey, hey, I finally found suitable people, don't scare them away!" Shiro Kawabata laughed to smooth things over, and actively persuaded, "You two, as long as the Movie is a hit, you can enter the ranks of Movie Star, and you can also make Friends with many Celebrities. Not only Entertainer, but also Professional Baseball Player, Professional Football Player, Race Car Driver, Beauty Pageant Champion..."
Chi Feichei picked up his Teacup and took a sip of Tea, quietly listening to this Fellow trying to fool people.
A Movie making someone famous? This Situation does happen, but it requires good pre-Promotion, a hit Movie, the actor's own Performance being remarkable or having Audience appeal, and follow-up exposure and corresponding Arrangement.
The only ones willing to do this for Entertainer are Talent Agency that have signed contracts with Entertainer.
And it has to be Talent Agency that are optimistic and focus on training people, otherwise they can only wait.
However, Shiro Kawabata, as a producer, is more concerned about whether the Movie is a hit or not, and it is impossible for him to spend money to help actors with Promotion and build Reputation.
Even, there are some unscrupulous producers in the industry who, in order to make Movies a hit, do not hesitate to Sacrifice the Reputation of actors, create some bad Rumors, or make actors make some moves that will be criticized.
Shiro Kawabata only talked about the good aspects after success, but avoided talking about the difficulties in it, purely trying to fool people.
As for the Beauty Pageant Champion mentioned by Shiro Kawabata...
If he wants to invite them, he can completely gather all the champions of relevant competitions in recent years, set up a few Tables, and play Mahjong together.
No appeal at all.
Shiro Kawabata was still saying, "In addition, when filming Movies, you can also take the opportunity to travel to many countries such as America, Britain, France, Italy..."
"Ran, it seems not bad."
"Yes, you can Consider it!"
Conan and Mori Kogoro actively encouraged her.
If Mouri Ran becomes a big Star, she can travel everywhere, and make Friends with Yoko Okino, Professional Football Player and other people. In the future, when they see Mouri Ran On Television, they can also proudly say their Relationship, just thinking about it makes it worth Expectation.
As for Chi Feichei, there is no need to Consider it. If Chi Feichei wants to be a big Star, it won't be the turn of outside producers to win him over. His own Company can contact countless Resource.
"However, if you really want to film a Movie, you have to be mentally prepared!" Motozura Ito kindly reminded.
Kyogo Kitaura echoed lazily, "That's right, because some idiot producers, in order to Making Money, violate the spirit of the original work and add some meaningless ambiguous plots in the Movie."
Shiro Kawabata asked awkwardly, "Mr. Kitaura, you are not talking about me, are you?"
As soon as he heard 'ambiguous plots', Mori Kogoro immediately changed his mind, "Ran, I think it's better to forget it."
"Yes," Conan also hurriedly said, "Filming Movies is not Suitable for you at all!"
"That's right..." Mouri Ran said, blushing.
Shiro Kawabata turned his Head and asked Chi Feichei again, "Mr., would you like to Consider it?"
"The producer of that Movie is also Mr. Kawabata, right?" Chi Feichei asked.
"That's right," Shiro Kawabata smiled, "I am the Investor and producer. As long as you agree, I can give you Movie Pay far exceeding that of a Newcomer, how about it?"
"Sorry, I'm not interested in acting in Movies." Chi Feichei directly refused.
"Don't listen to what they Say..." Shiro Kawabata obviously didn't want to give up so easily. He had just Get Up when he bumped into Mouri Ran's elbow and just happened to knock over the Bowl of Soup.
Once Seeing that Shiro Kawabata's Denim Pants were soaked in a large area, Mouri Ran quickly Get Up, "Sorry!"
"It's okay, it was my own carelessness," Shiro Kawabata picked up the wet Towel at hand and wiped his Pants, smiling very amiably, "I'll just wipe it with a wet Towel!"
Mouri Ran squatted down, cleaned up the Dishes that had fallen Aside the Table, and asked the Waiter to bring new Dishes over. Suddenly, she felt dizzy again, and the Line of Sight in front of her eyes also blurred for a moment.
"It's indeed a little hot..." Conan approached Mouri Ran, Reach Out and tested the Temperature of Mouri Ran's Forehead, Turn Head and asked Chi Feichei, "Brother Chi, do you have any Cold Medicine with you?"
Chi Feichei touched his Pocket and took out a packet of Cold Remedy Powder, "Take it half an Hour Before Meal or After Meal."
"Ah... Thank You," Mouri Ran thanked him and took the powder, "Then I'll Take Medicine After Meal."
"Oh? Miss, are you feeling unwell?" Shiro Kawabata, who had wiped the Soup stains on his Pants dry, asked with concern.
"It's not that serious," Mouri Ran quickly smiled, "Just a little Cold."
"Then you must pay attention to your Body. Come, sit here," Shiro Kawabata very actively helped Mouri Ran to sit down Aside, and he also sat down on Chi Feichei's right hand side, "Let's Discuss it again... You can Say whatever you want to eat, I'll Help you put it on your Plate..."
"Uh, okay." Mouri Ran was too embarrassed to refuse with a cold Face.
Chi Feichei didn't get too involved, drinking Tea calmly, waiting for the meal to start.
Shiro Kawabata was just about to add Dish when he saw the two Dishes in front of him, and frowned, "Hey, didn't I Say don't order Century Egg and Crab Meat Scrambled Eggs?"
"What's wrong?" Mori Kogoro glanced at Shiro Kawabata.
This Fellow has bad intentions, he must be trying to deceive his Daughter into acting in Movies with ambiguous plots!
"I'm allergic to Eggs, so as long as I See any Dishes made with Eggs, I will feel nauseous," Shiro Kawabata explained, and smiled at Chi Feichei again, "But you can order whatever you want to eat, it's okay."
"This is fine." Chi Feichei said.
Don't look at how enthusiastic and friendly Shiro Kawabata is now. If any Newcomer who doesn't understand anything enters the Film Crew, they will find that people are fickle.
Shiro Kawabata broke out in a sweat. His Attitude is really indifferent, this one seems difficult to deal with.
"Then, Miss, you..."
Shiro Kawabata Look Towards Mouri Ran.
Just as he opened his mouth, Conan squeezed between the two of them, "I want to eat Curry Rice!"
Mouri Ran was taken aback, and soon smiled gently, "Conan, this is a Chinese Restaurant, there is no Curry Rice."
"But I just want to eat Curry Rice," Conan Acting Cute, "Let's go Home to eat!"
He didn't want Mouri Ran to continue contacting Shiro Kawabata.
What if Mouri Ran is persuaded by Shiro Kawabata and runs to act in that kind of messy Movie?
"You're really hopeless," Mouri Ran smilingly took a Xiaolongbao and gave it to Conan, "Then eat Xiaolongbao, you said you wanted to eat it very much last time, didn't you?"
"Uh..." Conan took the Xiaolongbao, helplessly casting a gaze for Help at Chi Feichei.
Requesting backup!
If Chi Feichei also proposes to leave, maybe...
Chi Feichei picked up the Small Dish in front of Conan and helped pour some Soy Sauce, "Is it enough?"
"Enough, enough." Conan had black lines all over his Face.
Hey, hey, he didn't want Chi Feichei to Help him get Seasoning, he's not a Children anymore, he can do it himself.
Mouri Ran watched smilingly, feeling a Sigh in her Heart, Brother Hichiji is still so indulgent towards Conan.
Chi Feichei turned the Table, just turning the Chili Oil to his front, the Table was suddenly turned, and the Chili Oil was turned away again.
Reach Out, turned the Table back, picked up the Spoon in the Chili Oil, and Look at Conan.
"How much do you want?"
"Uh... Thank You Brother Ike, but I can do it myself." Conan took the Small Dish in Chi Feichei's Hand and Reach Out to add Chili Oil to the Dish.
Chi Feichei helped hold down the Table.
Kaizo Isozaki over there: "..."
Can you be faster?
He had already put Poison under the corner of the Table, and was waiting for Shiro Kawabata to touch the Poison!
