Reborn in the Tokyo Bubble Era

Page 354

Moreover, I'm afraid that time point is the most violent moment of the storm.As soon as he comes to power, he will face the uncertain future of the House of Representatives election.

"Please, I took the liberty to ask you before." Uno Zongyou doesn't have too much airs now, and he has indeed expressed his desire to influence the media world and help out through the Tao family. There is nothing to avoid, "Qiao Ben Sang briefly introduced Tao Jun's thoughts on that movie, I want to know, this is only a commercial project, why does Tao Jun raise it to such a high level?"

Tao Zhiming tidied up his language before slowly opening his mouth: "That's because the influence of neon in the world, except for the economy, other aspects are too fragile. Among the four dimensions of military, technology, economy, and culture, the military is the most important. Not to mention. Economically, semiconductors, the hopeful future industry, have been fully suppressed. In terms of technology, although the strategy of building a country with science and technology was finally determined 9 years ago, recently due to economic impetuosity, long-term investment in technology research and development is required. In fact, it is also very fragile. There is no clear strategy in culture, and it does not match the influence of the neon economy.”

Uno Zongyou listened quietly, although he didn't take it seriously when he mentioned these macro-level things.

"The Sanyou consortium I want to prepare for the establishment is aimed at technology and culture." Tao Zhiming said solemnly, "In the past, the relationship between neon and the economic circles of the United States was only imports and exports. I hope that through technology and The establishment of a consortium with their interests in the culture is to prepare for the future. If there is an inseparable bond of interest between them, there will be more room for maneuver, so that the capital power of the United States will not all stand against us."

As long as they continue to listen carefully, Tao Zhiming continued: "For example, the CD-Rom Technology Research Association, which is already preparing to be established, hopes to work with them to formulate standards for this new industry. In the recently developed mobile communication The same is true in the field of culture. The same is true in the field of culture. Now, in the Neon film market, Neon local films can only account for a minimum of 10% of the market in the past few years. Isn’t this situation terrible? ? Its impact is more long-term and profound than the impact on the economy!"

Hashimoto Taro was the first to be shocked.

Tao Zhiming looked at him: "Now, because of the increase in the purchasing power of the neon yen and the implementation of the consumption tax, people are buying imported goods one after another. Why do people choose this way? Apart from being richer, isn't it because of the impression that foreign countries Is the big brand a symbol of more high-end? If this continues, it will not be the United States that defeats Neon, but the people of Neon will abandon Neon products.”

"...Tao Jun said that, isn't it a bit exaggerated?" Uno Zongyou gave an example, "Most citizens still tend to choose Neon's own brands, such as automobiles and electrical appliances."

"Of course, Neon's local products will not die. However, if foreign brands can always sell higher prices for products of the same quality, Neon's clubs are not competitive domestically, so what about internationally? " Tao Zhiming made such a big circle, just want to make a point, "So, always grasp the innovative power of science and technology, and always be able to rely on the spread of culture to enhance the brand value of products, which is why I think the existence of Sanyou consortium is necessary. reason."

Uno Zongyou looked at him with a complicated expression, and said impatiently: "Tao Jun, the plan you mentioned earlier has actually received support in principle."

It means you don't have to stress these out.

Tao Zhiming smiled, so the so-called brainwashing means repeated washing.

Of course, he didn't intend to enlighten these people to deepen their understanding in this area. Others will always raise their understanding in this area, and it's not like they don't understand.But it seems "awe-inspiring" to mention it by myself. He holds the initiative of these industries in his own hands, and gradually buryes the impression that he is "one of his own", so that things will go smoothly in the future.

"About this movie..." Tao Zhiming finally talked about what Uno Zongyou cared about, "There are five purposes."

"Five?" Uno Zongyou was a little stunned. Are there so many?

Tao Zhiming nodded: "First, it is for your consideration. Master Yuno, although it is not a mistake that you were attacked, but because of your identity, it has become a point of venting complaints. Didn’t Mr. Uno find out? In recent years, there have been more and more publicity about various ideas, and more and more corporate legal persons..."

Taking this opportunity, Tao Zhiming talked about why the Rikulut incident and Uno Zongyou's incident became so fermented, and talked about the Tao family's way of using the media to manipulate, and then said : "This is the same as when I used advertisements to expose Mori's family to the public eye and restrained means. When a society enters an era of relatively abundant material, spiritual pursuits must be satisfied, and I am keen to express myself preferences, concepts, and vent their emotions. Therefore, why these things cannot be calmed down as well as before is actually not just the reason behind the push. The most important thing is that the times have changed.”

This passage was very long, and Tao Zhiming waited for them to think for a while before he said: "You two must understand these principles. For a long time, the United States has been shaping Hongsu, an external enemy, to gather internal strength. Now, The enemy has been weakened, and they have come up with new methods. Since everyone has different ideas and preferences, in today's era, they can be brought together through the developed media to form a force that cannot be ignored. The way to deal with it is, Just divide them and use them."

An old man like Soyou Uno is a little dizzy, isn't he talking about the movie about geisha?Why are you talking here again?

Fortunately, Tao Zhiming said it back: "Master Yuno, now there is a group, which happens to be a small group in the big group of women who oppose you. Women in the entertainment industry happen to have great influence on many other women With a sincere attitude, becoming a person who protects the legitimate interests of women in the entertainment industry in the future is not only a manifestation of sincere correction of previous behavior, but also can influence more women to change their impression of you by winning the favor of female stars, isn't it? ?”

Being able to climb to this position, how could Uno Zongyou not know the living conditions of those women in the entertainment industry, and he understood it in a moment of thought: "They are a group that needs resources very much and their demands are very clear. By promoting some laws and Policies in place can provide them with safety and opportunity by encouraging the growth of the entertainment industry."

"That's right, and this matter, by strengthening its own cultural strength, resisting the influence of foreign cultures, and even making culture a major strategy for Nihong to increase its influence in the world. Although the position of the Cultural Department is far less than that of the Prime Minister It's important, but it's more an expression of attitude." Tao Zhiming provided him with a new path, "The most important thing is that the cultural industry naturally has the function of accumulating influence and helping publicity. That Tao family, isn't it Is it because of our close relationship with Dentsu that we can influence so much media?"

Uno Zongyou's thinking was completely opened up: "There are great meanings about the future strength of the country, there are specific matters to improve the status quo of an industry and help it develop better, and there are potential benefits to affect a group of people who care about the entertainment industry. The invisible binding power of the media."

"That's exactly the reason." Tao Zhiming said with a smile, "So, the first purpose is to help Lord Uno achieve this."

The first goal made Uno Zongyou feel that the fog in front of him had been lifted.

To do this, he just needs to be a competent actor and get through the most difficult moments in front of him.It would be embarrassing, but it was better than a completely dark future.He also understood that what matters is influence.If through the group of female stars and people who like them, a certain amount of voting influence is formed, then even if there is no chance to return to the big position in the future, it is not impossible to use this influence to shape a Uno faction.

Isn't it because the opposition party has launched a woman Doi Takako as the party leader, so it has a new look?

Although he secretly looked forward to it in his heart, he still said calmly on the surface: "However, the current situation has been formed by the entire industry over the years due to interests. Any improvement will violate the interests of some people. If I stand alone to appeal , but without the support of real power, it will not make sense."

Sure enough, he heard another purpose of Tao Zhiming: "Second, through this movie, we should further win over the power of the capital."

"Kyoto?" Taro Hashimoto's heart skipped a beat when he heard that.

"Yes." Tao Zhiming didn't shy away from it, and said with a smile, "My father has returned to Kyoto to run a kendo gym. The Qingtian family who trained geisha in the early years are close friends of my father. I want to make a big deal out of this movie." The operation, and the actual filming in Kyoto. The current Kyoto has a rich historical heritage. Through this film, the beauty of traditional culture is displayed. Through Columbia Pictures and my Blockbuster video rental chain store in the United States, the goal is to make this The film is promoted to the whole world. In that case, if Kyoto becomes a place that foreigners will definitely go to when they travel to neon lights, how much long-term benefit will it bring to Kyoto?"

"Can it be done? It will take time to test." Taro Hashimoto knew very well that what he really wanted to talk about was the constituency of Kyoto.

Tao Zhiming said decisively: "Of course. Soon, a TV series we produced will be broadcast, and there will also be ancient parts filmed in Kyoto. Please believe me, this TV series will be phenomenal, from the plot, to the picture and Music, as well as actors, will set off unparalleled enthusiasm. At that time, Yasuko Sawaguchi, who has reached the peak of fame, will be announced to star in this movie."

"Is that Yasuko Sawaguchi?" Uno Munetsu had already believed it a little.

"Then, I will use my strongest strength to make this movie have a strong cast, the most beautiful geisha performance, and the most popular song." Tao Zhiming smiled, "Then, It is because of my huge investment that I ask those new friends in the United States to help me receive more returns through the channel of Columbia Pictures. They also hope that I can help build a new consortium with their participation. Such a small request , you won’t refuse, will you?”

"But will such a movie really be popular abroad?"

"I have prepared some gimmicks." Tao Zhiming said, "For example, I will play the role of the hero when he was young, and I will have a wedding with Yasuko Sawaguchi in the imagination of the heroine. For example, I will make my The composition of the film can first gain a little fame in the United States, and then provide another set of music for the overseas version of this movie."

"..." The two political figures have never paid attention to these things. Although it is indeed a gimmick for a billionaire to play in person, but... "Your talent for composing?"

"Don't you two know?" Tao Zhiming counted with his fingers, "I composed six of the top ten songs on the Neon Music Oricon Chart last year."

"..." This forced the two political bigwigs to pretend to be numb.

Tao Zhiming said confidently: "And I have already prepared another movie, also starring Yasuko Sawaguchi. This movie will definitely make her a hot star in the entire United States."

"...It's possible for you to become such a star, but her?"

"Because the idea of ​​this other movie will be invincible." Tao Zhiming smiled mysteriously, "and this movie will also be shot in Kyoto. This idea will definitely be remade by Americans."

Both of them were tickled by him, and immediately asked: "If you can say it, say it."

"This movie is called "Jingzi's World"..."

What Tao Zhiming was talking about was, of course, the demonically reformed "The Truman Show".If the protagonist is replaced by such a woman whom I feel sorry for, wouldn't the desire for protection be aroused even more?Here is a film with a female lead, with a sci-fi twist. At that time, the copyright will be licensed to Columbia Pictures, and then it will be backhanded in Hollywood, with a male lead in the role. It will also be popular.

As expected, the two of them were stunned when they heard this idea, and they couldn't help saying: "It's really... a very attractive idea."

"So, I'm sure." Tao Zhiming said decisively, "Moreover, what's more ingenious is that I will make the movie about geisha and this "Jingzi's World" as if they are related. "Jingzi's World" In "The World", there will be a suspenseful new segment at the end of the complete movie."

Facing their puzzled eyes, Tao Zhiming smiled sinisterly: "Jingzi escaped from the world of that reality show, and was very puzzled when he saw a world that seemed to be a little behind in "Jingzi's World". I told her that I lived in a fake world, but I saw a person who looked exactly like me, which is her in "Memoirs of a Geisha."

"In the end, the camera zoomed out, and it was a bigger reality show scene. This time, it's not just a small town on an island, but an entire city, but farther away is the outline of the future city. The commentary is: Welcome to the Showa era and experience the purest world of biological robots. So, Yasuko knows that she has not escaped completely. Moreover, her identity has also become a question. Is she a real person after all? Or a biological robot?"

Uno Soyou and Hashimoto Taro gasped for a while, thinking about it with horror.

What's wrong with your brain?

Tao Zhiming looked at them with a smile. From "Memoirs of a Geisha" to "The Truman Show", he was applying a larger world view of "Western World". Who in this era will not have a hole in their brains?

My brain is not as big as a bowl, so I can't think of such an idea.

Taro Hashimoto got to know Tao Zhiming again, his eyes were full of surprise.

He is also a rare business genius who is so good at planning and coordination, how can he be a composer and screenwriter?

what monster?

"How about it, would such a creative movie make people unable to resist recommending it to their friends?" Tao Zhiming asked with a smile.

"It's really... amazing." The two had to admit that just hearing his brief introduction, they already wanted to watch these two movies.

"So, even if "Memoirs of a Geisha" cannot be popular in American movie theaters in the first round, when "The World of Yasuko" is released, there will still be countless people renting the videotape and watching "Memoirs of a Geisha", and I Naturally, many plausible foreshadowings and clues will be embedded in it, and people will interpret it as various metaphors. Besides, if I play the role, it will attract some people to watch it, right?"

Can you learn without a geisha?

Over-interpretation or something, when the time comes, find someone to write an article, with a rhythm.

Tao Zhiming said seriously: "So, Mr. Uno, you can use the connotation conveyed by this movie at that time to speak for more women. Through the influence provided by women at that time, you can promote certain reforms in one fell swoop, and you can reverse the situation. The disadvantages of the opposition party in this field will help the re-election of the House of Representatives and return to some more critical positions. At least when the time comes, Reiko Ishibashi will definitely support you!"

Uno Zongyou called it a good guy, and Reiko Ishibashi also used it, and he had to go back to the first goal.

"If this purpose is not enough to make Kyoto look forward to the "Memoirs of a Geisha" that you want to shoot, then I have a third purpose, which can also help the sight of the first purpose."

"Please tell me!" Uno Soyou looked forward to it even more now.

Tao Zhiming said with a smile: "The third purpose is to cooperate with Toho for the shooting. The filming location will be along the line of Hankyu Electric Railway in Kyoto Station, and some real scenes will be rented there to build some permanent new scenes. When the filming is completed and released, Hankyu Electric Railway should also suffer from the crisis of the stock market and real estate, right? Then, I will try to take over Toho through some preliminary preparations. There are my clubs, and film and television If Dongbao, one of the big kanbans in the industry, stands up to support you, the resistance will be much smaller, right?"

Hashimoto Taro looked at him in shock, and actually wanted to use this movie to eat Dongbao?

A club like Hankyu Electric Railway is really not qualified to know what the real bosses are planning.If you do mental calculations but don't care, it's strange if you don't stumble.

But is this just the third purpose?

Chapter 444: Ueda's father is used to being a subordinate

Now, both of them are more concerned about the remaining two purposes.

"Then what about the fourth purpose?" Hashimoto Taro asked for him, because the first three seem to be related to how he washes away his stains and starts a new life.

"That is to further enhance the significance of doing this." Tao Zhiming went further, "Based on this movie, it fully demonstrates the beauty of traditional culture represented by geisha. Then, starting from Qingtian's house, let geisha be like this." A group broke away from the traditional colors of the year, and let them become the spokesmen for the spread of neon traditional music, dance, and service, and performed in the form of theater. Even if there are still some not-so-best ones who need to survive in the kiosks, at least there are On the surface, it changes the impression formed by the kiosk, and turns it into a performance-style izakaya full of neon characteristics, and becomes a tourist product.”

Yuno Zongyou understood it, and murmured: "In this way, I will really change the fate of this group, as if I have redeemed my sin..."

"It's also a way to improve the public's impression of you. All in all, Aota-san bought most of my shares in Wander Dance. Relying on the influence that Wander Dance has accumulated, I will be the first to launch such a performance-style izakaya, so that outstanding geisha can also Be a star of the new age with a path to the top."

Uno Zongyou nodded: "What about the last purpose?"

Tao Zhiming was silent for a while, and said calmly: "Let you achieve an achievement that can truly be recorded in history and transcend the position of prime minister of a country!"

Uno Zongyou's eyes widened: "What?"

Tao Zhiming said quietly: "Neon is the first country to propose the concept of 'intangible heritage'. As early as more than 100 years ago, it legislated to protect cultural property and established a certification system for living national treasures. I suggest that you use the geisha to protect cultural property. Art form, promote UNESCO to establish a Convention on the Protection of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. If this can be done, it will bring far-reaching influence to various groups such as neon future culture, tourism, and craftsmen. "

Uno Soyou and Hashimoto Taro never expected that he could be sublimated from a movie to this level.

However, after careful consideration, it is really possible to facilitate it.Especially for Uno Soyou, it simply pointed out a step-by-step path, starting from the group of geisha, expanding to other female performing arts stars, and then to many groups of craftsmen with special skills, all of which can establish influence.

But Tao Zhiming was calm in his heart.

Xia Guo is now being sanctioned, and he is unable to pay attention to these in the short term.

It is better for Neon to be the first to propose this matter than to have Zhou Guo first propose this concept in two years, let UNESCO adopt their suggestions, and finally promote the formation of this convention.

Then relying on this "influence" in this project, after proposing the establishment of a cultural country, all kinds of plagiarism and various applications!

Shen Shen Shen, give you a stick, this time I will take the initiative.

It doesn't matter if Xia Guo's pace is a little slower. It has a long history and a solid foundation, and there will always be a day when it will be slaughtered.

In addition, the sooner you show yourself in this matter, the sooner you can attract some people to really go to Xia Guo to see it, instead of just being brainwashed.

Let the Huo family take care of this matter on Xia Guo's side.

Tao Zhiming looked at Uno Zongyou, wondering if he could understand the meaning.

It can be seen that he has promoted certain practices of neon to become the standard of the world.And in the future, it will naturally have a certain initiative in this matter, helping Neon to enhance its cultural influence around the world.

The economic account with the United States is doomed. If the Neon people can gain some "sense of honor" from this cultural battle, at least it will be an achievement for the current ruling party, and it will be a bonus item.

For Tao Zhiming, he was able to do something to make money from the big boat he used to do this with the neon lights.

If in the 90s, Neon's cultural influence had risen a bit earlier, he could have harvested a group of audiences in the world other than Xia Guo through the works produced by Neon, and made money happily at the same time.

At that time, Xiangdao will have a film and television core, Neon will have a film and television core, and there will also be a stronghold in Hollywood. My buddies will first export through various cultures.

Reborn, copywriting also has to pay attention to an art, a strategy and far-reaching significance.

I have to plagiarize so much that the directors and screenwriters in the West are bald!

Uno Munesuke and Hashimoto Taro walked away full of shock, looking at each other in dismay.

Tao Zhiming returned to the room, and opened a partition door, only to see Miki Kono sitting there kneeling, crying like pear blossoms with rain.

"I haven't made any sound for such a long time, it's amazing, Sister Meiji."

Kono Miki heard this joke, but slowly knelt down on the ground, sobbing and said: "Thank you, Chairman."

"Don't do this." Tao Zhiming said leisurely, "You know, I'm not a good guy. Let you hear the many purposes involved in this matter, I just hope you can help me with all your strength, and teach those who will participate A real geisha, help me interpret this movie well."

"I will do my best, absolutely!"

Tao Zhiming smiled: "I believe it. You know, I have two other goals. One is to make Brother Xiufeng fall in love with you completely, and the other is to make Jingzi fall in love with me completely. So, let's all work hard."

Yasuko Sawaguchi decided to treat life as a drama, and Tao Zhiming married her in the drama as soon as she became so infatuated.

Tao Zhiming's cultural and media business that he wants to do in the future really needs a really big start.So, let's go down in person.

After explaining how Miki Kono trained Yasuko Sawaguchi to perform as a geisha, Tao Zhiming returned home.

After meeting a few groups of people, I will go to Kyoto to accompany Shana.

After the affair between Izumi Sakai and Yasuko Sawaguchi, Tao Zhiming's heart finally changed slightly.

I have become my own woman, and I have taken care of these things by my side, so I should give them more "love" feeling.Even if it's just acting in the game of life, you should act more.

What's more, they each have their own cuteness, otherwise Tao Zhiming wouldn't really keep them by his side and protect them.

This night, the pregnant Hoshino Ling naturally couldn't do anything with him, but Tao Zhiming hugged her and talked to her for a long time.

Hoshino Suzu didn't really care about those secret things, about how these things would help him in his future plans, how they would help Xia Guo, and even why he wanted to do business with the royal family of Ouyert.

But Hoshino Ling was the most special existence among the women around him. Such a secret gave her a feeling of absolute trust.

Although she couldn't help Tao Zhiming in other aspects, Hoshino Ling still felt sincerely happy seeing Tao Zhiming helping her to relax and talk.

"For such a long time, it's been hard for one person to carry so many secrets, isn't it?"

Hearing Hoshino Ling's gentle voice and feeling her hand caressing his face, Tao Zhiming narrowed his eyes and said, "Ling, if I feel tired in the future, I will tell you this. Say this to you Say, it makes me feel relaxed."
