Japanese Entertainment: From special effects actor to action superstar

Chapter 305 I’ll Go Back If You Beg Me
"After the empty mountains and new rains, the weather will come to autumn later."

Gu Ming hasn't been to the crew for a few days.

After a rain, there was a lot of dust on the streets.

In an izakaya they hadn't been to for some time, Gu Mingzheng and Narita Heng sat opposite each other. In front of them were a few small skewers of not-so-rich food and a few glasses of cold beer, with a hint of chill still hanging from the outside of the glass.

"So you didn't hit him then."

"I'm afraid of beating him to death."

Gu Ming shrugged and continued reading: "The bright moon shines among the pines, and the clear spring flows over the rocks."

He was speaking Chinese, and Gu Ming knew that Narita Heng would definitely understand him.

Because this is also a very famous poem in Japan.

"It's rare for a kid like you to be so elegant."

Narita Toru observed Gu Ming's kneeling form, somewhat amazed. "You really look like an ancient daimyo from a picture book. So, don't you think it's a pity? After training for so long, you suddenly decided to come back."

"If you don't want to act anymore, then don't act." Gu Ming didn't care. He took another big sip of wine and slowly ate the chicken skewers that only tasted of salt.

"It's not like I don't have my own career. Kurosawa Akira is quite good and very powerful. Everyone admires his achievements and abilities, but it's not to that extent."

"makes sense."

Narita Heng said no more, but raised his hand and ordered a few more glasses of wine.

But this time, unexpectedly, the person who brought the wine was not the waiter in the izakaya, but a little kid.

Gu Ming looked at Koji Yano who brought the wine, then raised his head and looked at his parents who came with him.

"Mr. Furuya, I'm so sorry! I heard you recommended this child for the role. I should have thanked you in person long ago, but at that time, the director repeatedly reminded me and made many requests, so I couldn't say it..."

"I've offended you so much before, I really want you to die!"

Gu Ming clicked his tongue.

He is a smart person.

For the sake of the child!

He took the tray and pulled Koji Yano to sit next to him.

What a good kid.

Gu Ming sighed a few times and said, "Just act well. You might become a great actor in the future. You might even be able to play the emperor."

Then go to Zhou State and find a woman who is unlucky.

Well, it is not clear whether Koji Yano’s wife is the unlucky woman Gu Ming, as she is a person who rarely appears in public.

But after all, as the old saying goes, marry a woman from Sichuan and Chongqing, and you will enjoy a life of hardship!

The phone rang and the izakaya owner looked over with a strange expression.

"Gugu Ming, which one is Gugu Ming?"

Gu Ming raised his head.

"It's for you."

As he spoke, the boss picked up the phone, ran over with the wire, and put the phone in front of him.

Gu Ming answered the call, and the voice on the other end was the one he had become very familiar with these days. Although a little old, the voice was full of energy, and the voice was as loud as ever.

"I wanted to stimulate you and make you a quick actor, but now it seems that it was a bit too much. Come back to work tomorrow... Don't make me beg you."

The phone was hung up cleanly and efficiently.

Gu Ming held the microphone and didn't even remember what to say.

"No, this is me?"

Gu Ming put down the phone and looked at Narita Heng.

Cheng Tianheng held the wine glass and said with a smile: "Tell me what they said over there."

Gu Ming repeated it.

"Oh my, that's not easy! You know, this old man won't give in easily. You can control him for a while, and he will probably really beg you. But..."

Narita Toru shrugged.

But if it gets to that point, there will be no point in maintaining the relationship in the future.

Gu Ming naturally understood this matter, so he handed the phone to the izakaya owner.

The boss, on the other hand, looked at Gu Ming with a bit of trepidation. He had just felt that this guy looked familiar, and now it seemed like he was some famous actor or something, who actually had a job arrangement just for drinking in an izakaya.

Gu Mingze turned his gaze to Koji Yano.

"Practice hard lately. Don't use a Kansai accent in your lines."

Koji Yano nodded continuously and looked up at his seemingly very kind elder brother.

"Will you go back then?"

"Yes, in a few days, yes."

……

……

Extreme Action Agency.

This warehouse has long been renovated beyond recognition by Gu Ming, but it is still rented rather than purchased, and is a long-term lease.

In addition to a rest area and a section for meeting guests in the front, after turning around a few walls, it is the area for daily training.

The coordination and techniques used in various action performances will be practiced here.

But today, no one was training, but just staring blankly at Gu Ming ravaging a poor sandbag.

The sandbag had been beaten beyond recognition and didn't look like it could be used again.

Zhen Xialong leaned over and asked quietly, "Which one is it?"

Koizumi raised the book in his hand.

This is the fourth one today.

It seems that the previous period was indeed not very pleasant!
Manatsu Ryu couldn't help scratching his face: "Is it too late for me to run away now?"

"It should be in time." Koizumi said, "Brother Furuya said that when you come back, he will put you in a sack and sink you in Tokyo Bay, and then let you talk nonsense everywhere."

Manatsu Ryu was shocked.

It seems that it is too late to run away, he has to carry the ship back to Yokohama overnight!
But it looks like it's too late to go back to Yokohama.

"Can I buy a plane ticket to go abroad? Africa is so big and I want to go see it. I heard Kenya is so fun!"

Kurobe Susumu loves Kenya!
Of course, this is just a joke and the ship will not really sink in Tokyo Bay.

As we were joking, the receptionist suddenly came running over.

"Brother Gugu, there are a lot of people outside! And there are quite a few cars!"

Gu Ming finally stopped what he was doing.

"Are you here... Let's go, cheer up and go meet them."

Gu Ming casually put on a coat, without washing up, and went straight to meet him.

As expected, quite a lot of people came. Basically, it can be said that all the members of the Kurosawa group were here.

Many young people in the office looked at these outsiders, their eyes as if they were examining a group of strange strangers.

In the reception room, Gu Ming sat down and looked at the person in front of him.
Casting assistant Hiroaki Honda.

"Mr. Furutani." Honda Hiroaki was very straightforward and bowed deeply when they met.

"Please come back with us! This incident deserves to be reported in the newspapers."

While speaking, he did not forget to glance at Gu Ming.

He looked sweaty, as if he had just done some strenuous exercise.

"Could it be that they secretly sank the person into Tokyo Bay?"

Gu Ming pushed his teacup forward. He smiled and said, "Then why didn't Mr. Kurosawa come in person?"

"Forehead……"

Honda Hiroaki scratched his head secretly.

It's not impossible for Kurosawa to come, but if it comes to that...

"Haha! Okay, I was just joking. Anyway, that's it. I'll go back and try my best to get this role, but everything ends here."

Honda Hiroaki finally breathed a sigh of relief and bowed deeply: "I'll pass it on!"
