"Director, you haven't forgotten the time when Japan and the United States cooperated in the filming of "Tora! Tora! Tora!"? I think back then, your stabbing in the back not only caused Kurosawa to lose his directorship, but you replaced him and got the Japanese directorship.

Director Fang's position, and Akira Kurosawa almost committed suicide after the film was released. Think about it, if you were him, would you not hold grudges? Would you forget this?"

Fukasaku Kinji's face suddenly turned pale, and then he remembered the grudge between himself and Kurosawa Akira.

At that time, due to Akira Kurosawa's insistence on perfection, the filming progress was extremely slow and the budget was seriously overrun, which made the American Fox company extremely crazy.

Only then did he find an opportunity, taking advantage of the dissatisfaction between Toei's crew and American director Richard Fletcher towards Kurosawa, and successfully backstabbed him.

It should be said that this incident was indeed enough to cause him and Akira Kurosawa to become eternal enemies.

But later on, his career was going smoothly, but Kurosawa, who was already over 60 years old, quickly fell into a period of career depression and appeared less and less in public.

Although Akira Kurosawa has shot masterpieces such as "Shadow Warrior" and "Ran" in recent years, it is said that he has been in serious financial crisis.

It stands to reason that besides making movies, this old guy should be busy paying off his debts first, and he cannot think about revenge against him first.

So he almost forgot about it, but he didn't expect to get such news today.

Is he really to blame for being careless?

"No, it won't. Although Kurosawa Akira is recognized as a national treasure director in the Japanese industry, he is old and his body is no longer able to support efficient and fast shooting. His works are still big-budget movies with huge investment.

.And what Shochiku lacks the most now is money. If I consider it from the perspective of a business manager, President Qi Ben will never give up on me for him. The old man will never be so stupid!"

Fukasaku Kinji thought for a while, and still maintained his perseverance out of confidence in his personal abilities.

He still didn't want to believe that Jun Omoto, who was so focused on profit, couldn't settle the debt for a while.

At this moment, Jiaochuan Haruki was really speechless. He didn't expect that there are people in the world who are so blindly confident.

Sighing, he was too lazy to use euphemisms anymore, and simply revealed the mystery directly.

"Director, everything you said is right, but you are not a businessman after all, and you are still not professional enough in some business fields. Let me tell you this. In the evening of the day before yesterday, a friend of mine who works at Toei told me,

It is said that the presidents of Shochiku and Toei made an appointment to meet at a Chinese restaurant in Ginza at dinner time. The people who can confirm include President Okomoto of Shochiku, President Okada of Toei, as well as Kurosawa Akira and Toei’s subordinates

Director Junya Sato, as for the Chinese restaurant famous for its Chinese court cuisine, it was a restaurant owned by Keiko Matsumoto. Immediately afterwards, these people went to a nightclub in Ginza to drink that night. After drinking, they all looked very happy when they came out.

There is no need to say the rest. You should be able to imagine what will happen, right?"

After saying this, Michiko Harada lost her composure again.

"Toei? You mean Toei? So, we are now being targeted by the two major studios..."

However, Kōgawa Haruki completely ignored her, a little Karami who had no vision, and just continued to concentrate on analyzing Kinji Fukasaku.

"Director Fukasaku, as far as I know, Akira Kurosawa and Junya Sato have been friends for many years, and Junya Sato was also nominated for Best Director in this year's Academy Awards. Although I don't know what they talked about, but as far as I know

It is expected that the award will most likely go to Toei this time and be taken away by Junya Sato. Kurosawa Akira will use this to complete his revenge on you. As for Shochiku’s interests, Toei will naturally reciprocate. The two major production companies can

There are many things to trade, just like the "Dunhuang" where you were kicked out. If you think about it again, since Omoto can be the president of Shochiku, he must be a master who is good at playing both sides and exchanging benefits. What else?

It’s impossible…”

As soon as he said this, at exactly this time, guests at several tables in the banquet hall stood up, bowed when they should, and said hello when they should.

Looking from a distance, it turned out to be President Okumoto of Shochiku Pictures, President Okada of Toei Corporation, Keiko Matsumoto, who had just bought Kiri Studio, and Yajun Sato, the director of Toei.

We walked in together.

At this moment, Haruki Kakigawa, who had been reporting the news just now, lost his composure and quickly ran away, disappearing into the crowd.

When Fukasaku Kinji saw this scene with his own eyes, he really realized his situation.

Kōgawa Haruki’s words shattered his whole world!

Unable to help himself, he pressed his body hard on the table.

He hunched over in pain, suppressing the unwilling and painful voice in his heart!

Especially the muscles on the face were almost completely distorted by painful thoughts!

But he couldn't speak out, couldn't speak out! He couldn't curse! He also had to pay attention to his manners!

Ahhhhhh...how could it become like this!
