The B-movie production history of Nikkatsu, one of Japan's oldest major film studios, was marred by an indelible stain that lasted for over a decade (from the 1970s to the 1980s). As the 1980s progressed, Nikkatsu's romantic pornography gradually lost its early anarchic charm and became increasingly stagnant. By this time, the pink film had lost its original critical connotations and was gradually approaching the sexploitation film. In 1988, after changing its name to Ropponica, Nikkatsu collapsed completely and went bankrupt in 1993.
Acquiring Studio Ghibli was not in Jerry's original plan, but the development of IC Youth exceeded his expectations. When "Castle in the Sky", "My Neighbor Totoro", "Lupin III", "Grave of the Fireflies" and "Anne of Green Gables" swept the Japanese animation film market, IC Youth could no longer satisfy the needs of comic fans with just comics - they needed movies, anime movies! So, acquiring Studio Ghibli might be a good idea, but it's hard to achieve at present. With the success of "Grave of the Fireflies" and "My Neighbor Totoro", which triggered an anime film boom, Studio Ghibli is thriving. How could they possibly be acquired? Moreover, behind Studio Ghibli lies Tokuma Shoten, a publisher dedicated to Japanese cartoons, and its president, Yasuyoshi Tokuma, would not agree to the acquisition.
For Studio Ghibli, Jerry can only wait.
As for Toei, Toho, Kadokawa, Shochiku, BANDAI, maybe? Bones, GONZO, Feel haven't appeared yet; Sunrise was eaten to death by BANDAI; Kyoto Animation is a good choice, but unfortunately, the current Kyoto Animation has not formed an animation system yet; GAINAX? Don't joke, Akai Takami doesn't want to take on anime adaptations, let alone GAINAX's rough work and boundless character settings make Jerry feel headache!
The only thing left is to take the three eagles working group out for a walk. Yes, Jerry's favorite animation production team, led by Miyata Tomoyuki, who bears the deep imprint of Ryū no Ko, inherited the system of Ryū no Ko, from production management to painting, coloring, background art and even photography department are all available.
However, Jerry, who had set his sights on the animation field, did not intend to restrain his own appetite. As a result, even the struggling daily life became something within his grasp!
There are two reasons for choosing Nikkatsu. Since its rebirth in 1971 after the first bankruptcy, Nikkatsu has been union-centered. Getting the support of a union is undoubtedly very important for the Japanese Communist Party, and although this union has a somewhat stinky reputation, it doesn't matter, let the great Princess Chikako Tanaka save you from some "ugly", "dirty" and "degenerate" abyss!
As for another reason, Jerry covered his mouth and chuckled.
Tanaka Nana, who was sitting next to Jerry, still felt a bit embarrassed and resentful. How could this guy say such things about giving birth! She wanted to hit Jerry hard, but couldn't bear to do so. Looking at Jerry's gleaming white teeth and smiling face, she thought he must be thinking of something bad again, so Tanaka Nana quickly reached out and slapped the back of his head.
"Jerry, stop thinking about those absurd things!"
"What? Meizi, what are you talking about? What a load of nonsense?"
Looking at Jerry's clear eyes, Tanaka Nana seemed to have her own thoughts seen through, and she blushed and murmured for a long time without saying anything.
"Hey, Cai Cai Zi, what do you want to say?"
Jerry leaned in, his face suddenly right in front of Tanaka Nana's, and Tanaka Nana's body froze. What is he doing? Is he going to kiss me? How can he do this? Tanaka Nana stared unblinkingly at Jerry's cute face.
A faint breath tickled the edge of Tanaka Nana's lips, causing a slight itch that made her breathing catch and quicken!
Is he going to kiss me?
Tanaka Nana began to daydream, her gaze starting from Jerry's eyes and sliding down all the way to his lips.
I really want to kiss you!
"Hey Cai Cai Zi, what's wrong with you? Your face is so red, are you running a fever?"
Jerry leaned forward, placing his hand on Tanaka Kanna's forehead. That faint, almost imperceptible breath passed through the corner of Tanaka Kanna's lips and landed on her lip.
"Ah~"
Tanaka Nana's face turned bright red and she covered her face with both hands!
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Jerry, who was in a daze, stared at Nakamura's flushed earlobe, counting the days, and suddenly had an epiphany. "Nakamura, you can't be... Oh God, what am I going to do?"
What else can Tanaka Nana do besides nodding? Is it... is it that she has to say...
Looking at Jerry's worried face, Tanaka Nana began to feel restless again, "Jerry?"
"Huh?"
"May I lean on you for a while?"
"Lean on me, it might be more comfortable this way!"
She rested her head on Jerry's small thigh, smelling Jerry's scent, and Tanaka Nana felt as if the whole world had disappeared.
Cai Cai Zi, you're really beyond help!
……
"Mom, I'm back!"
Misasa Aizawa poked her head out of the kitchen. "Is that Futsu? Didn't Aizawa-san come back with you?"
Sakai Noriko put down her bag and sat at the entrance changing shoes. It was clear that she was tired, "The president seems to have gone to Asaka!"
"It's so late already, what are you going to Akatsuki for?!"
"I don't know either! Mom, I'm tired and want to sleep for a while first."
"Hey, Fazi, aren't you going to eat first?"
"Let's eat together when the boss gets back!"
The door upstairs has been closed.
In the room, Noriko Sakai didn't even take off her clothes and fell directly onto the bed. Her steady breathing indicated that she had fallen asleep!
Fame requires hard work!
In April 1985, Sakai Noriko, who failed to win the "Beauty Girl Image" contest, was discovered by Shigesato Itoi and thus embarked on her road to fame. Since she was still a minor, after coming to Tokyo, she moved into the president's residence in Setagaya, Tokyo, where she was taken care of by the president. On February 19, 1986, under the arrangement of SunMusic, Sakai Noriko entered Horikoshi High School's Department of Arts, receiving various training to prepare for her debut as an idol singer.
July 28, 1986: Recorded the first song "Please, Dear"; September 7, 1986: Recorded single "Want to Be a Boy"; February 14, 1987: Established fan club; July 1, 1987: First album "Fansasia"; September 6, 1987: First solo concert...
Apart from rushing for notifications, Sakai Noriko also had to take care of her studies at Horikoshi High School. Everything required time and energy; being an idol was really tough!
"You're just an alternate!"
"Just be obedient."
But thinking of those sharp, knife-like eyes, Noriko Sakai was unwilling to give up, "Debut, debut as soon as possible, no matter how tired, I must debut! One day I will also become a dazzling star!"
"For myself, for Shizue, for Mr. Kuchinashi..."
So no matter how tired she is, Noriko Sakai endures it all with her extraordinary self-control and perseverance!
Until I set foot on the glorious path and become a lark in the blue sky in the hearts of Japanese people!
But in any case, physical fatigue cannot be alleviated!
