Shunji Iwai got the library of "The Kitchen" from Watanabe Manyumi. After a week's deadline, he not only brought her her own ideas when he interviewed Watanabe Manyumi. He also gave her a script adapted from it.

"Of course, as a script, this cannot be considered a finished work. However, I have read the script and feel it is necessary to share it with you."

When Watanabe Manyumi said this, she smiled slightly, "Let you, the man, take a look at the talent of the Thousand Mile Horse you like."

After all, he was the one who insisted on recommending Shunji Iwai to her.

"It sounds like I feel quite satisfied with Iwai Sang."

Watanabe Manyumi went to get her handbag and put a script on the table, "I am indeed a very talented newcomer."

Shinichi Iwahashi glanced at the cover of the script, took it over and flipped it out, and closed it again, "I'll take it back to see." After thinking about it, he asked her, "What are you planning to do?"

"We can't wait for him so long, so we have finished contacting him. Then, I met Ichikawa Sang as planned." Manyumi Watanabe reported to him the progress.

"Yeah." Shinichi Iwahashi listened.

"Ichikawa Suo unexpectedly read this book "The Kitchen". He is also very interested in directing this movie, and his itinerary is consistent."

"I remember Ichikawa Sang was originally your favorite candidate," said Shinichi Iwahashi.

Yes, the best candidate is not only interested in taking over, but also quite interested. Now, let alone "June-sang", the safety card that was decided at the beginning is useless.

However, Shinichi Iwahashi didn't believe that Wanyumi Watanabe was just to praise Shunji Iwai for his talent.

"I really like Ichikawa Sang the most. At this point, I have to apologize to Iwai Sang and say 'I will give priority to him next time'."

"But after reading Iwai Sang's script, I had another idea," she said.

"Oh?" Shinichi Iwahashi was dedicated to the supporter.

"San Iwai added a line to his script."

Wanyumi Watanabe threw the words to him, "You said before that the theme song or insertion song of the movie should be used with zard's song."

"I said it."

"When he met Iwai Sang for the first time, he asked me specifically what I had about the soundtrack of the movie and he seemed to have a lot of insight into the music and he could compose music himself."

"Then?"

"I mentioned the band with him." Watanabe Manyumi smiled, "I didn't expect that Iwai San put zard into the plot, as the band the heroine likes... Isn't that very interesting?"

"Advertisers must like directors like this." Shinichi Iwahashi joked.

"The reason for looking at him differently is that the band-related line is part of the talent he showed in the script. He is talented, but he is not short of ideas." Watanabe Manyumi did not hide her praise for Shunji Iwai.

"So, I want to make a compromise." She expressed her thoughts, "Ichikawa Sang is the director, Iwai Sang is the deputy director, and also participated in the screenwriter's work."

"Can you do it?"

In this case, we must discuss with Shinji Ichikawa and agree to Shunji Iwai.

"Iwai Sang's answer is 'If Iwai Sang has no problem, he will have no problem'." It seems that after reading the script, he reached a relevant consensus with Shunji Iwai.

The unknown little pawn Iwai Shunji would not insult him if he sent a character like him. Of course, the salary he paid to the unknown little pawn was limited, and it would not be possible to give Watanabe Manyumi any more blood.

"Then we will contact Ichikawa Sang again..." Wanyumi Watanabe didn't think it was difficult, "At least, I need to let Iwai Sang participate in the screenwriter's work."

"Because I like to write zard into the plot?"

“There are reasons for this.”

Wanyumi Watanabe smiled, "The most important thing is that although he is still immature and clumsy in writing the script, he accurately grasped the feeling of being 'unreliable'."

After the core characters are decided, the next thing will be much more natural. The whole movie is funded by Watanabe Manyumi's firm, and the investors are not dispersed, so her words are absolutely authoritative.

There are three important roles in the whole movie, and the heroine is set to play Inamura Izumi. After that, there will be a male protagonist and a key character, the transgender mother of the male protagonist.

The male protagonist should choose a newcomer of the same age as Izumi Inamura, and his temperament should be gentle. Yuichi in the book is not the kind of manly image who is brave and full of sharpness. It is better to say that he is a bit unreliable like the female protagonist.

In fact, the tough guys that used to be popular on the screen have long been gone.

The young male actor, Watanabe Manyumi is preparing to pass the audition meeting. Compared with her acting skills, the first thing she considers is the actor's own temperament.

With a strong temperament, the more you have a co-star with the heroine played by Inamura Izumi, you are a person in the same world.

The male protagonist's transgender mother has the setting in the book. She was a handsome guy before her sex, but then she changed her sex and had plastic surgery, becoming a charming male girl, bar beauty mother Sang.

Beautiful is certain, otherwise you will not be harassed by guests, and you will not be assassinated for refusing to harass the guests.

However, as far as the book says, the charm of this transgender mother comes not only from her appearance, but more from her aura. In short, she is a very energetic person.

However, whether this role is played by an actress or a male actor is playing the role, Watanabe Manyumi is still undecided.

"I listened to the opinions of Ichikawa Sang and Iwai Sang, and I also thought that if a male actor could play the best."

However, it is not easy to find such a suitable women's clothing boss.

"The original work of Yoshimoto Bananasan said that it would be okay even if the actresses played this role." said Manyumi Watanabe.

Gibbon Banana doesn't value her adaptation so much, and I don't know if it's because of the newcomer.

Shinichi Iwahashi replied, "But, after all, he is still a man at heart. Right?"

"That's right." Wanyumi Watanabe admitted, "It's a bit lazy to replace the actress directly." After thinking about it, the topic suddenly changed, "In the book, Yuichi's father... or mother runs a bar where the drink-mates are all transgender people."

"That's right." Shinichi Iwahashi followed and learned to speak.

He has a first-class memory. Although he is not a genius who can never forget everything he has read, he can remember everything he has read.

"Imagine alone is not enough." Wanmei Watanabe thought for a while and suddenly asked, "Have Shin-kun Shin-kun been to the male elder sister's bar?"

Shinichi Iwahashi shook his head repeatedly, "I can't stand it."

"I thought your legendary guide to walking Ginza Roppongi can give you some relevant advice." Manmei Watanabe joked.

"Stop sarcasm." Shinichi Iwahashi said.

It’s not his walking Ginza Roppongi Guide, but his Japanese are very good at naming. He always has this dragon and that tiger. In the Middle Kingdom, there is no need to worry about not having a name that can be fooled.

Although the name "Walking Ginza Roppongi Guide" is really not very good.

I don’t know if it was a temporary plan or had planned it before, “How about going to renew another house?”

"Hmm?" Shinichi Iwahashi could feel that her idea was impure.

"Is it okay to go to the male elder sister's bar? Shinichijun." she asked.

"..." Shinichi Iwahashi was speechless.

"Can you say 'no'?" he asked back.

"Then I have to tell you a reason." Watanabe Manyumi looked at his sore expression with a smile, as if she was just having fun watching him.

"I just don't want to go. It's so strange. I want my eldest sister to accompany me for a drink." Shinichi Iwahashi couldn't bear it.

"Does Shen Yijun find it strange?"

That was absolutely certain. Shinichi Iwahashi turned around and asked her, "As a woman, is it okay to go to the male elder sister's bar?" Unless it is the male elder sister's bar that is open to female guests, no one will receive him at Watanabe Manyumi.

"That's why I want to ask you to take me there." said Manyumi Watanabe, "I made such a heartless request."

"Then I asked the other way around, what is the reason for going?"

“Naturally for experience.”

Wanyumi Watanabe answered quickly, "Before thinking about whether to use male actors to play or actresses, let's first see the real male elder sister, and then you will have a clear idea."

After Watanabe Manyumi finished speaking, she looked at him, "Is this reason enough?"

It seems to be quite reasonable.

OK, he sacrificed his life to accompany the boss. Who made the movie? He was also the beneficiary.

"Then go." Shinichi Iwahashi agreed, "Does Manyumisan know which one to go to?"

Wanyumi Watanabe shook her head, "Of course I don't know." However, she had an idea in her mind, "Just take a taxi and ask the driver to take us to the house."

"If you go to a store with a very poor quality, it will be bad..."

Shinichi Iwahashi thought for a while, "I'll go call."

After saying that, he went to borrow the bar phone and called the fat young driver, asking him to recommend a male sister whom Teacher Akimoto also gave a good review. "By the way, you must be able to receive the women accompanying you."

The fat young man who truly occupies the Tokyo nightlife circle must have considerable research on the male elder sister’s bar. And the driver is so reliable, and he doesn’t care why you make such a request, but will only meet your requirements.

After hanging up the phone, Wanyumi Watanabe asked him, "Is that OK?"

"No problem." Shinichi Iwahashi said.

In this way, the two left the store and headed for the next stop. In the evening, they took Watanabe Manyumi to visit the male elder sister's bar, which was an unforgettable experience in life.

The bar recommended by the young driver of the pony fat young lady is indeed good, and of course, the consumption level is not low.

Shinichi Iwabashi led Manyumi Watanabe to go there and treated the female guests. They were quite good at talking to Manyumi Watanabe.

Or, it is precisely because of the male elder sister who has changed from "he" to "her" that she has the ability to socialize with both male and female guests.

But even so...

Shinichi Iwahashi didn't start shouting "It's so fragrant" after he came to the male elder sister's bar once.

"I have paid too much for you today."
