Tokyo Literature and Art Times

"Director Iwata, will there be a new work similar to "This Killer Is Not So Cold"?"

"Of course, I'm going to shoot a love movie next."

"Then, is the heroine... Nakamori Akina?"

"You guessed it? That's right, it's her."

Palme d'Or, such an award is rare in the history of Japanese movies. This is definitely big news, right?

Then, there is no problem with Japanese reporters coming to interview me.

Takeshi Iwata was really prepared for this, but...

How did they guess so accurately?

Moreover, these Japanese reporters, why are they not so excited?

After all, Takeshi Iwata is already an old bird. He has experienced many such interviews. Before that, these reporters were in the state that they seemed to be fighting in the next second.

Now this time it's totally different, they're all...peaceful.

Hmm, that's really the only word to describe them.

Takeshi Iwata hated being short and tight, but for lack of a better word.

Why is this so?

Takeshi Iwata was not shocked, but he really couldn't understand it.

In fact, the reason is very simple. Takeshi Iwata didn't know it yet, and Akina had already made an official announcement before.

Today's top queen officially announced her relationship, so there must be a lot of gossip next, right?

What about experienced journalists?

The people who came to France this time are all good people from various newspapers. Of course they understand one thing.

Don't startle the snake!

Let the target reveal something on their own without revealing anything.

Although it was an official announcement before, it wasn't so clear after all, right?

Ever since, Takeshi Iwata faced an inductive interview.

When the reporters heard the plan of the 'new film', they all nodded secretly.

Understood.

The next step is a love movie, and the heroine is Mingcai.

Isn't this a real hammer?

No matter, the goal is achieved, go back and publish the manuscript!

I have sent a simple short news at the fastest speed before, and now it is time to send an in-depth report.

"..." Takeshi Iwata scratched his head when he saw the reporters coming from Japan, and they quickly went wild.

Did I get the Palme d'Or or not?

……

"Nani? Akina, you told me everything?"

"That's right, that... Ah Wu, I'm sorry, I wanted to give you a surprise."

"Ah... haha... I'm really surprised."

"That's right, haha..."

Takeshi Iwata didn't finally understand what happened until he returned to the hotel with Shinobu and met Akina, the new Palme d'Or winner.

It turned out that it was my girlfriend Ming Cai who made the official announcement before!

Iwata Takeshi couldn't laugh or cry for a while.

Ming Cai and Xiao Ren couldn't laugh, and...

"Okay, I'm going back, and I'll leave the uncle to my sister."

The girl Xiao Ren immediately ran away, she was indeed a sensible girl.

If this girl wants to come, then the uncle and sister Mingcai can be together happily.

Well, there must be super huge gossip waiting in the future.

No matter, you'd better sleep first today.

She has experience and doesn't want to be disturbed again.

And Takeshi Iwata and Akina...

It's strange that the two of them are a little shy.

Anyway, let's go back to the room first, and the two of them walked into the elevator together.

"Awu... Am I being too reckless?"

"How could it be! This kind of thing is not the same if it is said sooner or later."

The two were talking, but their fingers were restless.

Takeshi Iwata's index finger first collided with Akina's index finger, then the middle finger, and then the two hands clasped together.

Pulling his lover into his arms, he lowered his head and firmly held on.

"What will happen to the future?" Mingcai's eyes were a little blurred.

Indeed, it is hard to say what the future holds.

Takeshi Iwata smiled, he couldn't wait any longer, and really wanted to have her here.

"What will happen in the future? Just ignore him!"

Ming Cai loves to hear this.

That's right, it doesn't matter what the future is, it's better to be greedy for a while...

……

Chapter 179 We are in love!No, you are not!

The two in France no longer think about the future.

But it was different in Japan. On the morning of the second day after the Cannes Film Festival closed, Nakadai Tatsuya found Kurosawa.

"Teacher! I won the prize!"

"really?"

"Here's today's paper."

"Oh haha……"

Kurosawa is getting old next year and can't stay up late, but it doesn't matter, Nakadai Tatsuya brought him some newspapers, which made the old man very happy.

"Tie?"

"Yes, it seems that the great director is very stubborn this time."

"It's Bertolucci, indeed, he has such a character."

"So……"

"Which supervisor is this kid?"

"Teacher, he should be the fourth."

"Oh, the fourth one, isn't that very good, haha..."

"Teacher, it's just..."

Nakadai Tatsuya hesitated to speak, but what happened to the fourth one he and Akira Kurosawa mentioned before?

Japanese films have only won four Palmes so far.

"The Gate of Hell" in 1954, supervised by Sadanosuke Kinugasa.

In 1980's "Kage Warrior", he was Akira Kurosawa.

In 1983, "Narayama Festival Examination", supervised by Shohei Imamura.

It can be said that the previous three supervisors are all well-known, and they are all well-known supervisors at the historical level in Japan.

And now, Takeshi Iwata has also won this award. What does this mean?

In fact, Nakadai Tatsuya had made a judgment a long time ago, that is, Mr. Kurosawa Akira wanted to find a successor at this moment.

Indeed, the legendary superstar definitely guessed right.

But at present, who else is the most likely heir to Akira Kurosawa's mantle?

Takeshi Iwata!

Now that he has won the Palme d'Or, Nakadai Tatsuya is 100% sure that it must be this young man.

but……

Akira Kurosawa naturally saw that his student had a different expression, so he didn't say much at the moment, just continued to read the newspaper, and he found something interesting.

"Big love? Akina Nakamori and Takeshi Iwata will be in Cannes?"

"A love story between a fashion queen and a famous director? Takeshi Iwata is sure it's a romance movie!"

"Akina Nakamori's new relationship announced? Is it really Takeshi Iwata?"

The newspaper industry in Japan is very developed, the newspaper offices are real local tyrants, and there are a lot of newspapers, but there are a few newspaper offices that are absolutely heavyweight.

The Yomiuri Shimbun, which claims to have the largest circulation, is the largest newspaper in Japan!

The Asahi Shimbun also claims to have the number one circulation!

The Daily News also said that it has the largest circulation!

The Sankei Shimbun has always said that it has the largest circulation in the Kanto region!

These four newspapers are relatively powerful, and each one is better at bragging than the other.

However, it must be admitted that these newspapers in Japan are indeed very rich, and not only rich, but also extended to many fields.

The four major newspapers own the four... well, the five major public broadcasts in Tokyo, and TV Tokyo is the more unique one.

The top four of the five major civil broadcasting companies, that is, except for Tokyo TV, can be said to have been created by newspapers and major film companies.

Therefore, it is understandable that TV Tokyo always appears to be so unique.

However, as far as news is concerned, the attitudes of these major newspapers can definitely affect the direction of public opinion on the TV station.

So, what is the situation now?

Iwata Takeshi and Akina's 'big love', they don't quite believe it!

The newspaper is full of question marks.

Of course Nakadai Tatsuya had seen it before, and he felt something was wrong.

Takeshi Iwata, you kid just won the Palme d'Or, and then you got hooked up with the hottest female star of the moment.

How can this be the successor of Mr. Akira Kurosawa!

What's the difference between you kid and Fukasaku Shinji?

Probably, that's what this legendary superstar thought in his heart, but he wouldn't complain like that.

What does Akira Kurosawa think about this matter?

"Hahaha……"

Unexpectedly, Kurosawa laughed out loud while reading the newspaper.

"Teacher..." Nakadai Tatsuya was really confused, what's wrong with the teacher?

Kurosawa asked back, "What do you think?"

Before Nakadai Tatsuya could react, he said with a serious face: "Although Supervisor Iwata seems to have some inappropriate considerations about the relationship, but in terms of his talent, he should be the supervisor of the younger generation in Japan, that is, The best of the New Wave directors."
