  Chapter 537 The fastest Japanese movie to reach one billion box office!

   is really surprising.

   When hearing the news of Iwata Takeshi's new film, Morita Yoshimitsu couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

   That's right, of course he knows which movie this is.

   must be "Kiujiro's Summer".

  However, in this case, the movie was released, and in comparison, I lost.

   Completely lost to Director Iwata!

   Yes, now this movie is released, then, the direct opponent to face is "Titanic".

  Although this movie was also brought to Japan by Takeshi Iwata, this movie was really successful.

   Well, in terms of time, this "Titanic" has been released in Japan for more than half a year.

   This time is indeed very long, or in other words, it should not be a main movie next.

   But, even if it is, it is still being shown.

   The momentum of Titanic is too strong right now.

   The box office of more than 25 billion yen is amazing!

  You must know that in the Japanese film market, if a film can earn more than one billion yen, it can already be said to be a great success.

   That's right, in the current year, with more than one billion yen, there is a chance to appear in the top 10 of the annual box office rankings.

   Even, 100% appeared in the top 20.

   So, even now, Titanic has passed the period of total victory.

   But at this time, daring to let your own movie show, which itself represents courage.

   Sure enough, Iwata-san!

   Morita Yoshimitsu is not a courageous person, but if he was asked to harden this movie, he would not dare.

   In short, this courage is enough for Morita to admire.

  So to speak…

   "Iwata-san, the real Japanese New Wave movie standard bearer!"

   When Morita Yoshimitsu was interviewed, even if the reporter did not ask Takeshi Iwata, he would say that.

   That's right, you must help.

  So and so, how did the others behave?

  …

   "Iwata Takeshi's courage is indeed admirable, but I don't like Iwata Takeshi's new film at all!"

   "It's almost certain that this new film won't do too well."

   "Iwata Takeshi is a transformational work this time, and it turned out to be a super blockbuster. It feels like... hehe..."

  The movie "Kiujiro's Summer" naturally caused a very wide range of discussions.

  Many directors and film critics in the industry came out.

   Everyone is a burst of output to Takeshi Iwata.

  It must be said that these people are not talking nonsense.

  Although, it is indeed with the kind of mentality that Iwata Takeshi is not good.

   However, the situation they mentioned is very realistic.

   "Titanic" is really too strong. Your film by Takeshi Iwata is still a comedy. How can you compare with others?

   The most critical issue is the comedy.

   Take Iwata before, he never made a comedy.

   This is his first time.

  If Iwata Takeshi this time, he came up with a gangster movie, then not many people would dare to say that.

   But now it's a comedy, so I'm afraid even you Iwata Takeshi doesn't have much confidence.

   Of course, most of the people who hold this point of view are guys who have had a holiday with Takeshi Iwata before.

   For example, the white-headed supervisor.

   or a character from the Kadokawa family.

   So, will it be successful?

  …

  The summer vacation in Japan starts in July.

   This point is very different from the United States. It can be about two months away from vacation.

  So, if you really want to talk about the summer vacation in Japan, it should be counted from July.

   However, American Hollywood blockbusters are still very confident.

   is like "Jurassic Park 2", which was released in Japan shortly after it was released in the United States.

   still achieved very good box office results.

   In other words, when Japan really started the summer season, Hollywood blockbusters have been released for a while.

   And the "Titanic" that is now sweeping the world.

  The movie was released last Christmas.

So…

   "My brother must be fine!"

  Sakai Masato, this guy swears.

   As long as there is an opportunity for an interview, he will be extremely confident.

   is this "Summer of Kikujiro".

  So and so... Spring water is very interesting.

   Now, she appears at the door of the cinema again like an ordinary movie fan.

   The premiere of this movie had been held before, but Quan Shui thought it was better not to go.

   Yes, at the premiere, Takeshi Iwata, Akina and Shinobi appeared together again.

   Hmm, this time it appeared without any problems.

   What can be wrong?

   Didn't Xiao Ren appear in this movie?

   Also, there is her master kohhy in this movie.

   Akina is Iwata Takeshi's wife again, so it's only logical that she doesn't appear.

   Just thinking of this, Quan Shui couldn't help laughing.

   She knows the truth of the matter completely, but... it's better to be as it is now.

   is the best for everyone.

  Just like that, Spring bought a ticket, left the ticket stub, and walked into the theater.

   "Is it a sequel to Hana?"

  The painting at the beginning of the movie made Spring think of this movie at once.

   "Fireworks" is really good.

   However, "Hana" still has many connections with Takeshi Iwata's previous films.

   He always likes to shoot gangster films, violent films, and he is also very artistic.

   "Hana" is a continuation of Iwata Takeshi's style.

   What about this one now?

  Spring water looking forward to seeing more blue.

  Iwata Blue This shade has become one of his signature styles.

   This time it will definitely appear frequently, right?

   Result... This time, I really let the spring down.

  In the beginning, there was indeed such a touch of blue.

   It’s just that this blue didn’t appear for a long time.

   is replaced by a child.

   He was running.

   This little guy, Masao, just made people want to laugh as soon as he appeared on the stage.

  Although, many viewers are indeed not sure why this little guy is full of grievances.

   But just like this, it's really funny.

   And next…

   Did Kohhy and Iwata-san play husband and wife?

   This surprised Quan Shui, but also thought it was fun.

  It seems that the two of them have worked together many times in the movie.

  I have a girlfriend, I have...Is it upgraded to a husband and wife this time?

   is also fun.

   And the next step is to make everyone laugh.

   is so much fun.

  Iwata-san how can you do this!

   Even the spring water couldn't help but complain.

   is really too much, even taking the child to that kind of place, haha...

   But this is really fun.

   isn't it?

After   , he bet on a bicycle race and a taxi.

   And, the appearance of a policewoman named Shinobu...

   Sure enough, this is Iwata-san.

   The famous director who will not let himself down.

  …

   Takeshi Iwata's movie was released normally.

  There are some people who hope that this movie is over.

   "Brother, as far as this film is concerned, it's not good at all."

   "You still need to say this?"

   "Iwata Takeshi actually went to make a comedy this time, it's funny enough, haha..."

   "You, what are you laughing at?"

   "Oh, nothing, I just think, he is really over his head. How can this kind of film win."

   "That's true, but let me ask you, how is the situation now?"

   "Brother, don't worry, the current momentum of "Titanic" is still very strong."

"Oh."

   Kadokawa Haruki, currently squatting in the bureau.

   Of course, he doesn't want to go out all the time.

   But, I can't get out.

   But even if you can't get out, you must have enough understanding and expectation of the outside world.

  About Takeshi Iwata, this guy... I can't say I hate him very much.

   In short, it is quite jealous.

   Be sure to let this guy fail once!

  At least, don't let him be so smooth, right?

   Now this is a good opportunity.

   "Titanic" is very popular in Japan and is now the number one existence at the box office.

When    is like this, Takeshi Iwata dares to make a movie and show it.

remarkably brave.

   But, I, Haruki Kadokawa, must watch your jokes this time!

   Of course, Kadokawa Haruki is also very clear.

   "Titanic" is really too powerful.

   Generally speaking, even if it can’t compare to this movie, as long as the box office performance is good, it can be considered in the past.

  Many Japanese probably don’t have such high demands on Takeshi Iwata.

   Even if he loses, he will forgive him.

but!

How can you do this?

  You, Takeshi Iwata, as the number one supervisor in Japan, must stand up!

   That's right, Haruki Kadokawa has recently made his younger brother Akihiko Kadokawa create a lot of topics.

The purpose of    is to make everyone feel that Takeshi Iwata should win.

  If he doesn't win, then Takeshi Iwata is not the number one supervisor in Japan!

this…

   Wait a minute, did some people say that Japan's No. 1 supervisor is Takeshi Iwata?

   seems to be not.

   But everyone seems to think so in their hearts now.

   It is even said that not only ordinary people, but also people inside the Japanese entertainment industry.

   That one by one also thinks so.

   Although, everyone didn’t say it.

   However, among the current Japanese filmmakers.

   You Iwata Takeshi are not the first person?

   Who can believe that!

   Therefore, Haruki Kadokawa made a fuss from this angle this time.

   In short, you Iwata Takeshi must win.

  If your movie can't surpass "Titanic", then you don't deserve the title of first person!

These…

   Actually, Kadokawa Haruki was not very stable.

   "What is the current situation?"

   "The box office data or something, hasn't come out yet."

  Brother is right.

  What is the efficiency of working in Japan, don’t you, the older brother, know?

   Kadokawa Haruki felt helpless for a while.

   But there is no way.

  Japan is a really weird country.

  Many people are working overtime, and many people are working very hard.

   However, according to many data, the efficiency of this country is not high at all.

   To what extent is this inefficient?

  Some countries in Europe are called lazy countries, right?

  A country like Italy has a very laid-back feel.

  At the moment, the most famous football league is Italy.

   is known as the Little World Cup.

   The sports industry in this country accounts for a very high proportion of GDP.

   A country whose main business is sports.

What word does    exercise relate to?

   Sports and leisure.

   In other words, a country dominated by sports and leisure.

But!

   Japan's overall social efficiency is not as good as Italy's.

   If you say this, most people will definitely not believe it.

   But facts are facts.

  So, if you want to wait until the winner is decided, then you have to wait a lot longer for Haruki Kadokawa.

   This young master was 10,000 reluctant in his heart, but he had no choice but to wait.

   What about the younger brother who can move freely?

   In fact, Kadokawa Lihiko is also looking forward to Iwata Takeshi's deflation.

   However, his purpose is different from that of his brother.

  Brother just wanted to exhale.

   And Kadokawa Arihiko hopes to gain benefits.

  Although the overall market is not good, but... "Titanic" appeared!

  When a movie has a profit-making effect, it will attract a lot of capital to join the market.

   How much box office has "Titanic" won?

   has now surpassed $1 billion!

   What is this concept?

   A few years ago, the acquisition of Universal did not cost more than $5 billion!

   You must know that in recent years, the purchasing power of the US dollar has not changed much.

   Moreover, the film continues to grow at the box office.

   If this movie can reach 2 billion box office?

   Then this…

   The market has sent a strong signal that it is time to invest!

   Kadokawa has long been ready to go.

   And what about Takeshi Iwata?

   Now, the number one supervisor in Japan, he became the first person to eat crabs.

   In fact, both Japan and China, the film market is in a downturn.

   If this movie market has risen from now on! ?

   Kadokawa Akihiko is a smart man, he observed a series of actions of Takeshi Iwata.

   This is worthy of being the number one supervisor in Japan.

   He can even be said to be the number one supervisor in Asia right now!

  Why do you say that?

  Because of Iwata Takeshi's actions, almost all of them are activating the Asian film market!

   is like the movie market in mainland China.

   All of us know that this market has unlimited potential.

   But when will this potential be realized?

   is like India.

   Everyone is saying that India has potential.

   But when will India realize its potential?

   There must be such a person, that person will activate the silent market.

   Then everyone follows that person, so as to make things bigger and make money.

   And now... that's right.

   Kadokawa Liyan just took Iwata Takeshi as a chess piece.

   If he fails, it is like the present.

  Iwata Takeshi's film failed to surpass "Titanic".

  Even if it is...According to Kadokawa Lihiko's idea, Iwata Takeshi's "Summer of Kikujiro" is also at the level of one billion yen.

   Comedy.

  There are many comedies in Japan.

   How about you Iwata Takeneng?

  You are not the type of filmmaker.

   Therefore, Kadokawa Akihiko just wanted to use Iwata Takeshi as a stepping stone.

Can    do what he wants?

  …

   "It's really fun, haha..."

  The spring water came out of the theater with a satisfied look.

   This movie is so funny.

   is definitely a worthwhile trip.

  So, box office or something…

   Spring water felt that there was no need to think about it at all.

   As long as the movie is good, funny, and entertaining, that's enough.

   But, sometimes things are like this.

   When Kadokawa Arihiko saw the latest box office data, he was stunned.

   "Kiujiro's Summer" became the fastest Japanese movie to reach 1 billion yen at the box office!
