【Respect】Ice in the fire

The weather in June is filled with the sweet and sour smell of wave soda, the scorching sun sweeps through every corner, and even the shadows under the trees are unbearably hot and humid.At this time, the rising star in the entertainment industry - Reji Munakata was a bit too busy.

Standing under the sun, Munakata Reji frowned slightly, and his slightly rapid breathing implied that he had just entered a strenuous exercise, sweat was hanging all over his face, and the back of the thin shirt was soaked with sweat, and the part not covered by the clothes He was flushed from the sun, but he still remained silent, listening carefully to the advice of the old man beside him.

This man who looks embarrassed is a newcomer trained by the authoritative Japanese film and television company U-TM. He has not been well-known since his debut. Even though his appearance is handsome and outstanding, it has never brought any convenience to his career.Those who do this business have to say they are innocent, and outsiders will not believe it, but Zong Xiangli is a stubborn master. No matter how well-known producers or directors show favor, he is half-heartedly unwilling to be inferior to others. Be left out like this.

"Wait a while for the 'prisoner' to come out from here, and then you follow, run to the intersection and arrest him. Remember, when arresting the fight, don't take into account the actor, the prisoner is what you see in front of you." The old man rolled up the script and made a speech at the same time. Movements help Munakata understand.

"I understand, director Guochanglu." Following Guochanglu Dajue and making gestures, Munakata Reiji took the wet towel handed over by Awashima Seri and wiped two handfuls on his face, grabbed the jacket neatly and started shooting .

The film currently being filmed is a police-themed movie about police and gangsters led by the famous Japanese director Kunisuneji Daikakusu, with Reiji Munakata playing the leading role——"Decoy"

At first, people in the circle did not understand why Guochang Lu Dajue chose a rookie actor who was only 24 years old and had only debuted for more than a year to play the leading role in this film, and the age of the character he played was far different from Munakata Reiji. No matter in terms of image or temperament, this young man who is very similar to a vase is obviously not competent.

The protagonist of "Detox" Yuto Sakata is a police chief. After graduating from the police academy, he was directly assigned to the anti-drug team to participate in the work. He has dealt with drugs for nearly 20 years and turned into an undercover agent to deal with drug lords. It can be said that such a role, if not A seasoned actor is simply not up to the task.Since the character is older than Munakata Reiji, every time before shooting, in order to make him look more mature, the makeup artist has to put fake wrinkles on Munakata Reiji and put on a foundation that is 3 shades darker than his skin tone.And this also makes him have to do a long time of preparation before each filming, which is time-consuming and laborious. People around him think that Guochang Lu Dajue is old and confused.

It wasn't until "Decoy" was officially launched that the people around gradually understood what the old man meant.

This outstanding young man is not such a vase as he looks, on the contrary, he may be regarded as a rare talent in the entertainment industry.Since his debut, he has acted in many supporting roles. Although the appearance rate is quite low, anyone with discerning eyes will know that every movement of Reiji Munakata is fully expressive, whether it is body language, expression, or tone and rhythm. Grasp, everything is formulaic in place.But what is most impressive about him is the appeal he brings to people when he integrates into the play.

Such a talent is rare in the circle, because he did not receive professional training before his debut. After the scout got in touch with Munakata Reji, U-TM quickly drafted the documents related to the debut plan. In just one month, Munakata signed a contract and officially debuted, participating in the recording of various plays.

No one would have imagined that before becoming an actor, Munakata Reiji was a top student in the Faculty of Law at the University of Tokyo. With his qualifications, he could successfully enter the legal profession and display his talents in the fields he is good at, but he didn't know why he had to enter entertainment that he had never touched lock up.Although some people doubt it, according to Yu Zhangxun, the main person in charge of Munakata Reishi, no matter what field he is in, people like Munakata Reishi are the most expensive gems.

Expensive rough stones are hidden in the hard gray earth-colored rocks, and they cannot be excavated without professional theories. No matter how good a BMW is, without the insight of Bole, it can only be the most common horse in the stable. He felt that he became his bole.In the dark time of Zongxiang's supporting role in idol dramas for nearly a year, Guochanglu forcibly pulled out this hard-earned horse that almost missed the crown.

The premiere of "Decoy" is scheduled for early August. The poster style is gloomy and depressing. The theme of anti-drug police reflects the noble professionalism and traditional Japanese sense of justice.When the producer and director were interviewed at the premiere, the outside world was very concerned about Guochang Lu Dajue's thoughts on casting, but the old man did not respond positively to this.

"It is an honor to be favored by the director of Guochanglu." When interviewed by Munakata Reiji, his statement was expected by everyone, but it was also unexpected. It was expected that such words would be indispensable, and the answer would be like this Generally, there is no explosive point in just one sentence.

Due to the dark theme of the script, most of the professional theories involved in the play have been restored to reality. The protagonist, as a clue running through the main line, has been recognized in both acting skills and objective appearance. 8%.The proportion of positive and negative comments is equal. The positive comments are mainly because Munakata Reiji's acting skills are in place. Although it is not as calm as the old drama, it is still quite interesting;

During the heated discussion on the Internet, someone released the detailed information of Reiji Munakata, and picked up the magazine photos taken by Reiji Munakata a year ago at the beginning of his debut with campus themes. The release of these photos also instantly ignited the Twitter topic list.

Most of the photos released are group photos with artists who debuted at the same time. There are only a few photos taken alone. Among this group of newcomers who debuted, Reji Munakata is the best-looking one. Compared with others, his skin is whiter Many, the height is also the most outstanding, and the temperament is a lot behind others.

While there were crowds watching Xiaoxianrou on the Internet, the company followed suit, and the first official homepage of Munakata Reishi was also quickly built, and the packaging work of Munakata Reishi was also put on the agenda.

At this time, Reji Munakata was putting together puzzle pieces and drinking hot tea, while Seri Awashima was excitedly scrolling through Twitter, watching as Reji Munakata's name climbed up the hot search list on Twitter, and then stopped at the second place.

Following the content on Seri Awashima's mobile phone, Reiji Munakata also saw No.1 on the hot search list——Zhou Fangzun

The gap between the second and the first is huge, and the data of the number of keyword searches differs by a whole digit.

Nagoya Dome——

"It's eel rice again today?" Zhou Fangzun leaned lazily on the sofa in the backstage, pointing to the packed dinner in his hand. Although his face was expressionless, he was obviously disgusted.

Kusanagi Izumo, as Zhou Fangzun's manager, has been saddened more than once - this man can shine like a lump of gold on stage, but off stage there is no substantial difference from an uncle, no, there is still a difference, he is Such a handsome uncle.But this time, Kusanagi said it was understandable. During the three-day performance at the Nagoya Dome, the working group ate eel rice, which was bought by Zhou Fang’s bodyguard and driver, Kamamoto Toshio. Even he couldn’t stand it anymore. .

After Zhou Fangzun finished disgusting, he still killed the eel rice without saying a word, not a single grain of rice was left.

The rehearsal was before the official performance. Zhou Fangzun sang and danced all afternoon. After eating and resting for a while, he began to prepare for warming up. There was still half an hour before entering the arena, and there were already long-awaited fans outside the arena.

Once, Zhou Fangzun, Kusanagi Izumo and Kamamoto Ryoo formed a small band, and their dream was to have a grand performance.Young and energetic big boys always have unrealistic fantasies, want to be a rock idol, want to be a basketball star, want to do big business and make a lot of money to pick up girls.

For children of that age, sweat is full of the smell of sunshine. Due to their immature mental age, when girls of the same age are fighting each other, boys may still stay at home playing games, smoking in the toilet next to the teacher's office, or Amidst the scolding from the Disciplinary Committee, he climbed over the wall and went out to surf the Internet.The youth was wiped out under the strong suppression of the National Examination, and in the end everyone became obedient, their heads were flattened by the school and society, and they became ordinary people who could not be more ordinary.

Obviously Zhou Fangzun was different.

When others are fighting each other on the game console, he is in real person PVP. When his peers are writing hard on the test papers, he smokes and drinks and skips class to sleep on the rooftop. While working hard for the heaven-defying music game, he adjusted the strings and sang his monotonous but complicated syllables.

It is precisely because no matter what is different, his dream is so unrealistic, freedom and music have no contradiction.

The band formed with his partners, Zhou Fang named it Barbara.The first public performance was in a middle school gymnasium. At that time, the three of them had little funds, and they could only rent the cheapest venue. The promotional posters were only synthesized with clumsy PS technology. There was no decoration on the stage, and the configuration was that of the gymnasium. There was an old-fashioned sound system, and there was a wet non-slip mat lying on the floor. Under this crude stage, there were no more than 50 people in the audience, but they still sang.

But now he is the only one standing on the stage of the dome, looking down at the crimson audience, and Izumo Kusanagi and Riko Kamamoto turn behind the scenes.Kusanagi serves as Shufang's manager, and Kamamoto takes on the tasks of picking up Shufang's daily announcements and being a bodyguard.What they say is, Zhou Fang, you are suitable for solo singing, you are born to be a king.

In the early stages of development, there were very few fans supporting him. Zhou Fang had an impression of most of his fans, most of whom were female fans, but the one who impressed him the most was a male fan. Although he didn’t know his name, that person has been following him since the beginning of the stage until now.That person would go to every place that Zhou Fang walked, whether it was a tour in Japan or a photo shoot in other places, that person would chase him sooner or later, and then he would walk up to him at the signing meeting and call him He wrote his title.

Zhou Fangzun has traveled all the way, from a small concert that can only accommodate a few hundred people, to an arena with a capacity of [-] people, and then to the Tokyo Dome with a capacity of [-] people. That familiar figure is never absent.

Probably idols and fans have a special companionship.

Fans couldn't see Zhou Fangzun taking off the brilliant stage behind the scenes, and Zhou Fangzun also couldn't see them after the light sticks were extinguished.What he can do is to live up to expectations and show the best stage again and again, and the fans also silently accompany him through the sorrows and joys again and again.

No one achieves great success without giving.

When the final melody "Dream" sounded, the fans' special cheering began. The red cheering sticks in the audience were changed into sky blue in an instant, just like a monstrous sea of ​​fire transformed into a peaceful lake. This is Zhou Fangzun's first since his debut. A song that means a lot to fans who have followed him since his first regular album "Prophecy".

I foresee the blue sky and the sea of ​​clouds

blue makes me surge

Cyan makes me depend

still boiling

my worship

Who doesn't know my future

someone doesn't know you exist

Past life mutual generation and mutual restraint

this life together

I don't want to repeat the same mistakes

I can't bear to fall

Snow White is sad and cold

Swords of Sorrow

it kills me

you put out my fire

blue sky undefeated

Only you are innocent

——"DREAM"

……

The encore ended, and the Nagoya venue ended successfully. After the concert, Zhou Fangzun and the staff had a celebration banquet, and fans left the venue one after another. Some crazy fans, as usual, would go directly to the underground parking lot to block people.Although these crazy fans never messed around, and Zhou Fang acquiesced in taking pictures with them, but if he wanted to drive away without saying anything, a large group of women would stop him at the exit of the parking lot and order him to get out of the car.

They have the same personality as Chi, and the same code of conduct as Zhou Fangzun. They have a hot temper and don't give him any face. The so-called idol has what kind of fan. Zhou Fangzun's fans are arrogant and arrogant. Put your idols in your eyes.

"King, come down for me, say hello before leaving!"

"We are the ones who supported you step by step to get to where you are today, hurry up and get down and thank you!"

"Have you received the aid food? If you don't eat it, you still have the face to go back?"

Helpless, I didn't run fast enough today, a large group of girls blocked the front, the parking lot attendant was about to cry, and besides, his parents still couldn't offend, so Zhou Fangzun had no choice but to get out of the car.

"Today's support is very good, it's too late, let me go back." As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Fangzun opened the car door and quickly got in, patted his buttocks and escaped.

After 1 minute, my words were refreshed intact under the Twitter account named [HOMRA Zhou Fangzun Fan Support Personal Station], with a retweet volume of 1+

The last wave of publicity for the 8th anniversary of their debut is the signing event held at the Hilton Hotel in Tokyo at the end of August.At that time, 500 fans will be drawn from the album membership plate, and they will enter the venue and queue up to sign with the invitation card and Zhou Fangzun's official membership card randomly included in the album.

"KING, please draw me." The fan in front of him was wearing heavy makeup and his eyes were wide open.

He swipe two strokes, the painting is completely different, and his brows are wrinkled: "Name."

"Can you write my Twitter ID, 'Zhou Fangzun's eldest wife'."

"..." Next to the ugly graffiti, he wrote "Zhou Fangzun To: Zhou Fangzun's eldest wife --|||".

"KING, I have a small gift for you." The fan handed over a headband decorated with a huge strawberry.

"……name"

"Please write 'Always be your fruit milk.'"

"..."

"KING, please sign quickly."

"In a hurry?"

"There is an exam soon!"

"..." This time he wrote - get the hell out of me

"KING! First time meeting!"

"name."

"I'm a male fan, my name is Hatta Misaki!"

He wrote it - I am a male fan, my name is Hatta Misaki!

After the end, Zhou Fang didn't bother to go home again. It is estimated that there are another group of women chattering in the parking lot now, and the evacuation work should be left to Kusanagi and Kamamoto.He directly asked for a room at the hotel to rest, and while waiting for the elevator, Kusanagi sent a message and would come to his room in a while.

Ding——With the sound of the beep, the elevator has reached the 10th floor

Zhou Fangzun stared at the phone and was about to reply to Kusanagi, but unexpectedly bumped into someone.When he stood still, a handsome young man with thin-rimmed glasses and curled hair was staring at him displeasedly.

"I'm sorry." Without waiting for Zhou Fangzun to say anything, the young man spoke first, and he didn't show apology at all. Instead, he walked into the elevator and quickly pressed down on the floor with an expression of "Your Excellency won't look at the road", and disappeared like the wind. .

Staring at the closed door of the elevator for a long time, Zhou Fang slowly came back to his senses. Although the time was quite short, maybe not even 5 seconds, the feeling of that person left in the air just now was very familiar, as if he had experienced it before. There have been many scenes like this.

Zhou Fangzun had a big heart, and he didn't care about this strange feeling after a while.Stepping on the soft carpet to find the room, he took out the room card and swiped it smartly. After opening the door, he stepped over the envelopes and cards on the ground—God knows how those fans knew his room number.Zhou Fang was going to take a shower before taking a look. At this time, the intercom at the door rang, and Kusanagi Izumo's voice drifted in from outside, which seemed to be accompanied by the sound of Kamamoto eating ramen.

Zhou Fang lit a cigarette and let them in.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your hard work. I just received gifts from many fans, including me and Kamamoto." Kusanagi Izumo put down the pile of things in his arms, "In addition, there will be a movie opening ceremony here tonight. The press conference, the organizer heard that you were there, and invited you to attend the press conference and help promote the film."

"Don't go."

"You'd better show your face. Now is the time when your popularity is rising. Don't give people the impression of arrogance. It will also affect your evaluation."

"Chiliu—" Kamamoto agreed.

----

Munakata was in a bad mood at this time, or it would be more appropriate to describe it directly as bad.He was stuck in traffic for an hour on the way to the hotel, and because the sponsor of the film was a high-end clothing brand, the sponsor required all the staff at the press conference to unify their company's clothing, so Reji Munakata hurried to the room prepared for him to change into Clothes provided by sponsors.But when he was about to go to the press conference, he was bumped on the head by a red hair that came out of nowhere. When he arrived at the press conference floor, he found that his clothes had been cut at some point.

Big things will not make Munakata Reishi so angry, but the accumulation of frustrated small things is enough to make him feel bad, especially when he inadvertently glances at the stage and sees the culprit who bumped into him at this moment standing in the audience with a face of nothing to hide After the corner, he felt like his glasses were about to shatter!

"Then in the third part of the press conference, the reporters in the audience are invited to ask questions freely around the theme of the movie."

"Mr. Munakata, as one of the rising film and television stars in the middle of this year, have you ever paid attention to the suspicion of the special relationship between the director Guo Changlu Dajue and you?"

"No." Munakata knew very well what kind of dirty water was flowing in the minds of these reporters. As long as he answered a little carelessly, it would trigger the infinite imagination of these monsters, and thus be thrown off by a few eloquent fictional articles The whole body is gray.Besides, the old man is probably about to be a hundred years old, so what could it be related to?

"Most of the voices against you on the Internet claim that you got up by hugging the director's thigh. What do you think of this?"

"Is it true? Please continue to pay attention to the new movie starring me this time. Instead of believing those rumors, it is better to see it with your own eyes."

"What would you say about instant fame?"

"I don't have anything to say about this." Munakata replied with a perfect smile.

"..."

Reiji Munakata always practiced Tai Chi in front of reporters, and his official tone was as good as that of any political figure. He was not explosive and extremely boring.

Finally, the host mentioned inviting a special guest, and the movement in the audience brought Reiji Munakata back to his thoughts, so he watched a red-haired man who hit his sky full of stars swinging the rattling metal chain on his trousers step by step Stepping up, the flashlights of the reporters under the stage crackled and exploded.

The man stood still and took the microphone.

"I just witnessed the whole process of the press conference. The expectations of the movie are very high. Please continue to pay attention." Zhou Fangzun spoke, and Izumo told him that he had to memorize these words.

Munakata Reishi's face was expressionless, but if you look carefully, his complexion is not very good, but Zhou Fangzun noticed Munakata Reishi's emotions, and before stepping off the stage, he looked back at him, with a playful smile flashing on the corner of his mouth.

The flashing lights under the stage were crackling endlessly. The reporter caught this detail and seized the last opportunity to ask: "May I ask if Mr. Munakata has friendship with the king of rock and roll, Zhou Fangzun?"

"No." Munakata answered bluntly, and then smirked.As for how the reporter described the red hair, he completely ignored it.

It was not until he stepped into the elevator at the end of the press conference that Reiji Munakata remembered where he first came into contact with this name.

Ding—the 10th floor is here.

The moment the elevator door opened, a cluster of fiery red came into view.Zhou Fang sat on the sofa in the elevator with his legs crossed, and Munakata Reiji had time to look at this person carefully.

He was dressed in fashion and rebellion, with fiery red hair combed back, wearing a tight black leather jacket, and metal chains hanging from his jeans, which stood out in the entire elegantly decorated elevator hall, no, it was against the law.

The fighting spirit came rushing like a torrential river, and Zhou Fang uttered his voice because of the impulsiveness that came from nowhere.

"Hey."

"What's the matter, sir? It's clearly stated that smoking is prohibited here, even if you are a popular searcher, you can't make an exception."

Who knew that a single syllable of his own would provoke a long sentence full of gunpowder from the other party. For a moment, Zhou Fangzun couldn't think that the other party would describe himself in this way, and he was stunned for a while before saying: "I don't care, help you promote, don't you want to thank you? Also, Are you actually aware of my affairs, are you secretly paying attention to me, Munakata Reishi?"

Zhou Fangzun could clearly feel that the person in front of him was very impatient with him, but it was very interesting. The more impatient he was with him, the more forbearing he became. How long this person can endure is also a curious thing.

"Huh? Do you need me to call a doctor for you? If I remember correctly, I haven't invited anyone to promote the movie. Besides, it's not my job. In addition, you bumped into someone just now, and it shouldn't be your first time." Apologize? Also, I didn’t take the initiative to pay attention to you, please don’t get me wrong, I just saw it by accident while browsing twitter, could it be that you are looking for me because you are too free to relieve your loneliness, Zhou Fangzun from HM?” Reiji Munakata defined the other party's behavior as finding fault, so he would turn around and leave without hesitation in the next second, without wasting a second, such as now.

"Hmph, it's even, U-TM's Reiji Munakata."

The man's very embarrassing response came from the back of his head, and Munakata Reiji once again turned his head to warn.

"Your Excellency's behavior, with all due respect, can this be called shameless? I don't know who got out of the elevator and played with his mobile phone without looking at the road."

"I don't know who got in in a panic."

"...Hmph, barbarian." Zong Xiang choked.

"Ha." Zhou Fang agreed.

There was a relative silence for about 30 seconds, neither of them wanted to spend any more time. The two walked towards their room in unison, stepping in unison and not giving in to each other. Nie Yuan, the room turned out to be the opposite door.

What a fucking pot of blood fell from the sky.
