It's better than Kitagawa Iku following Murakami Ryo and being endlessly manipulated by him.
In the end, Murakami Ryo watched helplessly as Kitagawa Iku, his face contorted in pain, got into the car and drove away. He pounded the floor with his fists, hating himself for his own powerlessness.
"It's okay, as long as you're alive, there's hope. I won't look down on you, Sister Yu."
He was prepared for Kitagawa Iku to be played with until he was broken, then abandoned, and for him to stay by Kitagawa Iku's side and take care of him.
Meanwhile, Shirakawa Natsu found Minoki: "Hey, Minoki, let's make a movie!"
Chapter 506 Young Oobi
"Making a movie?" Miyuki stood on the balcony, a cigarette in her hand, her expression strange. "I've never even participated in a stage play."
"It's okay, here's the script, take a look." Shirakawa Natsu handed her the script: "I wrote this script specifically for you as the protagonist. You're handsome, ruthless and taciturn, you just need to play yourself."
Miyuki stubbed out her cigarette, picked up the script and started flipping through it, unlike Inagawa Hanahi who quickly flipped through it.
She read it very carefully, reading the script word by word.
The plot itself was very simple. In just half an hour, Miyuki read the last page, closed the script, and looked at Shirakawa Natsu with an extremely strange expression.
"Hey, why are you looking at me like that?" Shirakawa Natsumi felt uncomfortable under her gaze.
"Landlady, who are you planning to cast?" Miyuki's eyes were playful: "A two-hour movie, with her being gang-raped six times, isn't that too much?"
“There’s no way around it.” Shirakawa Natsu spread her hands: “I plan to have Kitagawa Iku play the female lead. You know what her situation is. She can only be the one being fucked the whole time. If she has even one more line, it will break the immersion.”
"Hmph." Miyuki's lips curled into a smile. Suddenly, she reached out and wrapped her arms around his waist, looking down at him with burning eyes: "You know I won't refuse your request."
"..." Shirakawa Natsumi placed one hand on her to prevent her from taking the opportunity to get closer: "Don't start flirting for no reason, I'm in a hurry right now."
Making a movie is not easy.
But he simply didn't have that much time; he had to prioritize efficiency while also ensuring the quality of the footage.
His extras are real gangsters. It's fine for a short time, but if it goes on for a long time, with hundreds of gangsters gathered together, who knows how much speculation it will cause in both the legitimate and criminal worlds.
Meanwhile, Rina Kazama took Iku Kitagawa to TV Tokyo.
The school beauty originally wanted to leave Kitagawa Yu in the staff dormitory, but seeing her resigned expression as if she was ready to be exploited and ruined by unspoken rules, she was afraid that Murakami Ryo would cause trouble due to his excessive consciousness.
I can only keep her by my side.
Bringing her ex-boyfriend's godmother to meet the director feels strangely surreal.
With the Yamagishi Group behind her, Kazama Rina could easily meet with the head of Radio Tokyo.
"I'm sorry, Ms. Kazama, we'd be happy to provide a director for the Yamagishi Group, but we need to arrange the schedule, and a deposit is required for the director's fee." The person in charge's tone was fairly sincere, but the nearest available slots were all booked a month in advance.
Kazama Rina was not giving up. She visited several television stations and film companies in the name of the Yamagishi Group, but the answers she received were all similar.
“Miss Kazama…” Kitagawa Iku had been standing to the side. She had originally thought that she was being taken to serve the director, but now it seemed that things were not as she had imagined.
Seeing Rina Kazama's dejected appearance, he felt a pang of pity.
"I'm sorry, I'm very tired right now and I want to rest for a while." Kazama Rina covered her forehead with her hand. This was the first time she had worked for Shirakawa Natsu, and even with the Yamagishi Group behind her, there had been no progress, which put her under a lot of pressure.
She didn't want to be just a pretty face.
“I…” Kitagawa hesitated, his eyes filled with conflict: “If… if it’s about finding a director, actually, I’ve met a director among my previous clients. He invited me to make a movie, but I refused. I… I can ask him for you.”
Rina Kazama looked up at Iku Kitagawa's timid appearance. Asking her to make a movie was definitely a scam; she should just call the police.
She was then taken aback; Murakami Ryo must have thought the same thing.
……
Shirakawa Natsu and Miyuki sat in the office. Filming a movie also requires locations and props, and they only realized how troublesome these things were when they actually started doing them.
Inagawa Hanahi also came over and sat on the office sofa, drinking tea.
"You're the head of the Inagawa-kai, the largest yakuza gang in Tokyo, aren't you? How can you be so free?" Shirakawa Natsu was speechless.
Inagawa Hanahi said she would help him command his underlings.
But ever since he came in, he's been slacking off and drinking tea, acting as if he's living a peaceful and contented life.
Faced with Shirakawa Natsu's questioning, she remained calm and unhurriedly took a sip of tea: "Yes, I do nothing so that everyone can feel at ease. In the ancient language of Yan, this is called governing by doing nothing."
Shirakawa Natsumi pouted: "This is the first time I've heard someone describe a mascot in such a fresh and unconventional way."
Inagawa Hanahi didn't seem to care at all. Asaya no Kumi asked, "Would you like some tea?"
"No need," Miyuki declined with a smile.
Shirakawa Natsu narrowed his eyes, realizing that he had almost forgotten that Miyuki had once briefly dated Inagawa Hanahi, but now he had slept with both of them.
Could it be that Inagawa Hanahi's purpose in staying here is actually for Mi no Kumi?
While he was still lost in thought, there was a knock on the office door.
Rina Kazama walked in with a slightly overweight middle-aged man. She looked unwell and seemed hesitant to look up.
"Is this the director?" Shirakawa Natsu firmly believed that professional matters should be handled by professionals, so she asked Kazama Rina to find a director.
"Director Shirakawa, hello!" The slightly overweight middle-aged man bowed to him at a ninety-degree angle with great excitement, his voice loud and clear: "My name is Kato Nishi. Please give me a chance. I will definitely not let you down."
Rina Kazama stood to the side, her face anxious. She walked up to Natsu Shirakawa and said in a low voice, "Natsu, I... I went to every TV station this morning, and they all required appointments... so..."
Shirakawa Natsu waved her hand to interrupt her, then looked at Kato Nishi: "Have you ever directed a film on your own?"
"Yes, I have filmed over a hundred sales videos." Kato Nishi looked nervous, quickly raised his head, and respectfully handed over a resume with both hands.
"More than a hundred?" Shirakawa Natsu looked strange. He took the resume, saw a URL on it, and entered it into the computer. The personal homepage immediately popped up.
According to various tags such as "mature woman", "uniform", and "bunny girl", there are no fewer than a hundred.
Miyuki stood behind him, looking at the screen with a half-smile.
Kazama Rina lowered her head almost to the ground: "Yes... he must have begged me to bring him to see you."
Shirakawa Natsu leaned back in her seat and rubbed the bridge of her nose with her hand.
"Director Shirakawa, please give me a chance. I promise I won't let you down." Kato Nishi became anxious upon seeing his expression: "Although I've been making adult films, I've never given up on my dream of making a movie. You see, I always try my best to incorporate plot elements into the movies I make."
"Really?" Shirakawa Natsu raised an eyebrow and casually clicked on a mature woman tag.
Three gangsters came to collect protection money and pinned the mother to the ground, but the camera kept switching to the son upstairs playing games on his bed.
Although it was just a small innovation, it was enough to show that he was a director with ideas.
“I can see that you are a director with ambition, but we are currently facing a funding problem…” Shirakawa Natsumi hadn’t finished speaking.
"I don't need a salary!" Kato Nishi answered quickly when he heard there was hope.
"You're the one." Shirakawa Natsu made the decision: "Our film is called, Yakuza: Boy Oogiri."
Chapter 507 This makes sense
"My director, when can we start filming?" Shirakawa Natsumi asked Kato Nishi. Although Kato Nishi had always directed adult films, his experience was far superior to Shirakawa Natsumi's, who was an amateur director.
"I've been preparing for this day, and I can start right now." Kato Nishi said excitedly, like a thoroughbred horse meeting its discerning owner, ready to make a name for itself.
“Okay, please begin.” Shirakawa Natsu looked at him seriously.
"?" Kato Nishi also looked at Shirakawa Natsu.
The two looked at each other for a long time.
An eerie silence fell over the office.
"Boss?" Kato asked cautiously, "Excuse me, where is our film crew located?"
Shirakawa Natsumi looked serious and pointed around: "Xi, we are all your strong support."
Kato leaned back slightly. He didn't pay to join the production team because he valued the fact that the investor was the Yamagishi Group. Newly emerging conglomerates like this would definitely pave the way with money when entering the entertainment industry.
With this opportunity, regardless of whether the drama is good or bad, he can officially enter the entertainment industry.
But now it seems that things are not as he imagined.
"Boss..." Kato Nishi started to back out: "How much is our filming budget?"
"Funds?" Shirakawa Natsu narrowed his eyes. Yuzuriha Yu offered unconditional support, but she didn't mention the matter of funds at all.
It was clearly a deliberate attempt to test his connections and overall capabilities.
"We plan to make a low-budget film."
Having gone through so many years of ups and downs, Kato Nishi was perfectly capable of understanding the meaning behind his words. He thought he had seized an opportunity, but in reality, he had fallen into a trap.
He realized that the situation was more complex than he had imagined.
But I didn't dare refuse him.
This is the Yamagishi Group.
"Boss, I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I will definitely try my best to film well!" Kato Nishi bowed at a ninety-degree angle, his expression sincere, having already made up his mind to slack off.
Let's delay for now and get things done without offending anyone: "I'll take the script back and study it carefully before making a filming plan."
"No need." Shirakawa Natsu waved her hand and laughed, "We're in a hurry to release the film, so let's keep things simple. I think today is fine, let's start now."
"Huh?" Kato Nishi looked puzzled.
"Here's the script. Take a look at it in the car." Shirakawa Natsu tossed the script to him and looked at Inagawa Hanahi: "Have the actors arrived yet?"
"Twelve have arrived. The others are getting supplies. You can call them over if you need anything." Inagawa Hanahi picked up her teacup and took a sip with a smile.
"Alright, the script for 'Young Oogami' is officially ready to begin filming." Shirakawa Natsu clapped his hands and stood up from behind his desk: "Let's all work together! If we join forces, we're sure to make it a box office hit!"
"Go for it~" Inagawa Hanahi clapped her hands with a smile, looking like she was having a good time.
"Keep it up." Mi Zhi Shi said with a half-smile.
"Phew... Good luck." Kazama Rina let out a long breath. Although she didn't know what had happened, the person she had found had successfully applied for the director position, so she considered her mission accomplished.
Kitagawa Iku, hiding in a corner, looked at everyone with a strange expression.
She had never been treated as a companion before, and for a moment she panicked, stammering, "Come on... cheer up..."
"No... Boss, this is too urgent." Kato Nishi just wanted to slack off. Seeing this scene, his mind raced, trying to find an excuse to get by.
“Kato Nishi, I’ve always felt that what makes a movie stand out isn’t the investment, but the excellent actors.” Shirakawa Natsu patted him on the shoulder: “Come on, let’s go check out the actors first. Their acting is like that of real gangsters.”
"Okay...okay then." Seeing his enthusiasm, Kato couldn't bear to refuse, so he followed behind him, thinking about what excuse he would come up with later.
The group took the elevator to the underground parking lot.
After the Yamagishi Group went bankrupt, it prohibited gangsters from entering unless absolutely necessary. So the people that Yamagishi Hika brought sat in a circle in a corner, smoking and chatting idly.
Two people are having a contest to disassemble and reassemble a handgun.
When they saw Hikaru Yamagishi approaching, they snapped to attention and stood up in perfect unison, bowing at a ninety-degree angle: "Boss!"
His voice was loud and clear, and his momentum was overwhelming.
Kato Nishi was still racking his brains for an excuse to escape when he was startled by the unified shout. His legs went weak and he sat down on the ground.
Shirakawa Natsu reacted quickly, grabbing his collar from behind and laughing, "Director Kato, don't be nervous. These are the actors I invited to play gangsters. They look very convincing, don't they?"
"..." Kato Nishi opened his mouth, looked at the dozen or so burly men with scars, tattoos, sunglasses, and slicked-back hair, and swallowed hard: "Very...very similar."
"Director Kato, just say the word, and we have over a hundred actors like this to satisfy you." Shirakawa Natsumi said with a gentle smile.
He did not want to use threats.
But there is no way now.
To prevent Kato Nishi from shirking his duties, the only way to put pressure on him was to say: "Don't look at the scars on their faces, the tattoos on their necks, or the bullet holes in their bodies. They are all good actors and will definitely follow your instructions."
“But…but…” Kato Nishi looked at the two burly men who were quickly assembling a pistol: “Isn’t it a bit inappropriate to bring guns when filming a movie?”
"Isn't it reasonable for them to play gangsters and carry guns?" Shirakawa Natsumi asked sincerely.
“It’s…reasonable, very reasonable.” Kato Shinonori stood up, relying solely on Shirakawa Natsu’s hand for support.
"It took me quite a bit of effort to get them involved." Shirakawa Natsu's smile widened, giving him the air of a sunny young man: "They took a week out of their busy schedules to film the movie. Director Kato, you've had a tough week."
"A week?!" Kato Nishi stared in disbelief, his expression one of "you might as well just kill me," but then he caught a glimpse of the bulging waists of the gangsters out of the corner of his eye, and his words changed to: "Don't worry, boss, I'll definitely finish filming for you!"
“Okay, this is their first movie.” Shirakawa Natsumi continued to press the issue: “They will bring their relatives and friends to support the box office. If it’s too bad, it will be embarrassing.”
"Waaah..." Kato Nishi finally couldn't hold back his tears, and a grown man burst into tears on the spot: "Don't worry, boss, I will definitely get the effect you want."
