  Chapter 35. I Have No Dreams

  ---

  "But this is just my inal idea. Now, I think this idea is a bit too radical," Pucci added.

  After all, before this, he never imagihat Phantom Blood would bee popur so quickly. Even though he did his best in every aspect of the filming, even luxuriously casting actors for extras with only one or two lines, doing your best in all aspects doesn't necessarily mean it will bee popur.

  It might even happen that, despite everyone's best efforts, the costs ot be recovered. This kind of thing is not unon in the industry.

  So, even if this statement is somewhat biased, tragedy has a deeper impa people's hearts than edy, as long as it is not a edy like Stephen Chow's, where "edy is tearing apart the worthless things in life for people to see."

  Thus, in the industry, it is ihe case. The core edy is more likely to cause a rge-scale sensation among the audience, allowing their little-known studio and the work Phantom Blood to bee famous more quickly. Just like the most memorable ar Gintama is not its usual funny plot, but the first movie adaptation, the serious and tragic "Red Cherry Blossom Arc."

  The death of Zeppeli is the most important se in Phantom Blood. Pucci's initial idea was naturally to make good use of this plot.

  But now, Phantom Blood no longer hese means to boost its fame. Although this key plot will not ge, how to film this se without affeg their current popurity requires careful sideration.

  So...

  "...!?"

  Jolyne Cujoh realized something was wrong. ucci, the guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, also going to back down?! Although she felt that Pucci's caution areat were more in lih industry norms, she didn't want this kind of on sense!

  "Pucci, is your inal iion iing these works just to please the audience?!"

  It seemed like she had e to the set of Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma and was intoxicated by the magical food there, but she quickly recovered her expression auro a serious one.

  She stretched out her hands righteously, tightly grasping Pucci's shoulders, pulling him to her level, and looking at him, said: "Answer me, Pucci! Is it because of money, fame, honor... these low-level is that you want to be a supervisor?!"

  "I..."

  -- That's exactly what I think.

  Well, these thoughts were just ucci thought in his mind. He would never really say them out loud, nor would he write them down in his diary. So, here, Pucci, who didn't know what Jolyne Cujoh was thinking, could only answer her question with silence.

  Fortunately, Jolyne Cujoh was anxious and did not give Pucci time to ahis question. After asking this question, she tio answer herself: "No, no!"

  "Pucci, you are definitely not the kind of person who has not gotten rid of vulgar tastes!"

  -- I still haven't gotten rid of my vulgar tastes, I'm really sorry.

  By the way, this is also something that Pucci would never say.

  -- However, do I really have such a high and noble impression in Jolyne Cujoh's eyes?

  -- I don't know?

  Pucci wondered doubtfully. But to be ho, it feels good to be trusted by others.

  Jolyne Cujoh tinued: "It was from the script of Phantom Blood that I saw your ideals, different from others, Pucci, and that's why I chose to recruit you to be the general supervisor of Green Dolphin Studio!"

  Well, after all, nowadays everyone likes family-friendly dramas. Pucci, who was able to write a script where almost all the protagonists were killed, is truly a rare talent... a talent that will arouse the anger of the audiend help Jolyne Cujoh lose money.

  "So go for it, Pucci!" Jolyne Cujoh patted Pucci's shoulder vigorously and said, "Just do as you pnned from the beginning. Don't let secur perspectives strain your infiential!"

  "How you see the rainbow without going through the storm?"

  "Do you want to see Phantom Blood pletely turn into a mediocre work that looks very popur?"

  "Or will it bee a masterpiece that will be remembered by all the audiences?!"

  "For most people, choosing the former is enough to satisfy them. But..."

  She paused for a moment, imagining how much money she would get from the system after Phantom Blood lost money. If it didn't lose money, she would only be able to watch the money slip away from her in vain. She was happy one moment, sad another, sometimes smiling and g together. She looked weird but determined aful, speaking to Puc a way that made people fear her.

  "I'm not satisfied!"

  "Phantom Blood is the first work of reen Dolphin Studio and also my favorite work. If I choose to promise here, should we also sider the audience's emotions and choose to promise in future works?"

  "And then gradually beediocre like most works in this world, like most studios?"

  "Even if the end of this road is hell?" Pucci said after a moment of silence.

  Outside the window, the sound of the wind swayed. Ihe house, Pucci looked at Jolyne Cujoh, w what she was thinking.

  "This is what you, Pucci... no, it should be said that most creators have fotten." Jolyne iled firmly and said, "The works of reen Dolphin Studio should never promise!"

  "..."

  This is probably the reason why Anasui fell in love with Jolyne Cujoh and tried her best to help her. This woman is really capable. If he was like Anasui, fused about life, or like those creators who had fotten something, as Jolyne entioned, perhaps he would also be attracted to her at this time.

  But unfortunately, he, Pucci, has no dreams! Jolyne Cujoh's words had absolutely no effe him.

  But...

  "Ah, ah, I really lost to you." Although he has no dreams, he protect the dreams of others.

  Anyway, the only mohat would be lost in the end would be Jolyne's own money...
