"I say, what little secrets are you two brothers discussing?"
Shiki Matsuno, who was standing nearby, saw Nanaya and Ori whispering to each other, so he came over out of curiosity.
"It has nothing to do with you."
Nanaya snorted coldly.
My own emotional history has nothing to do with Ori, but what Shiki said is not so appropriate.
It's not that Nanaya doesn't trust Shiki, but this guy will definitely mock him and come up with all kinds of bad ideas.
"Instead of worrying about me, you should focus on your own movie. How is your progress now?"
Nanaya saw that Shiki Matsuno was about to speak again and quickly interrupted him.
Ever since "Tsukihime" was officially announced to have entered the preparation stage, all kinds of disturbances regarding this project have never stopped.
Although "Tsuki-hime" is not a sequel to "Inferno", it is at least related to this second-best film in film history.
This natural advertisement naturally attracted a lot of people's attention.
Although Nanaya was not the director or screenwriter of the film, he was still credited as a producer.
This alone makes fans feel that the movie "Tsuki-hime" has been confirmed.
Besides, the name Matsuno Shiki is no stranger to Fate fans.
His name is listed as the second director and executive producer of both FZ's movies and the web series HF.
Although everyone has always regarded FZ as the work of Nanaya Kiryu, the status of Matsuno Shiki in their minds is not low.
He is Nanaya's most important deputy after Ryougi Ori.
In the minds of ordinary movie fans, they feel that if they want to make a movie in the Fate world view and at the same time want to maintain the Fate style.
The most ideal director would definitely be Nanaya Kiryu, followed by Ryougi Ori, and then Matsuno Shiki.
But the media don't see it that way. In order to create sensational news, most of the media are predicting a negative outcome.
They even thought that "Tsukihime" would destroy the great success established by the four Fate movies.
The expectations of fans and the ridicule of the media no longer seem to be a pressure for Shiki Matsuno.
After all, Nanaya saw the faint dark circles under this guy's eyes.
"Don't mention it. Now I really understand why you were so grumpy in the first place."
Shiki said with a haggard look
"Directing a $50 million movie is a lot of pressure. The invisible pressure is almost everywhere. I have been suffering from insomnia lately."
Shiki Matsuno lowered his head and muttered, "It's only 50 million. It would be strange if your hundreds of millions become a powder keg."
"You'll get used to it. That's how I got through it."
Patting Shiki's shoulder, Nanaya comforted him, "I think you need to get used to working under great pressure. Hollywood is such a place."
"Shiki, when you achieve continuous success, you will find that the pressure you once had was actually the driving force that pushed you forward."
As for Nanaya who was giving him chicken soup, Shiki Matsuno gave him a middle finger as a sign of respect.
"Go to hell, you're so open-minded and you even scolded Lily until she cried."
Perhaps because of the mention of the relationship with the heroine in the previous conversation, Ori glanced at Nanaya.
"Don't say that, Four Seasons."
Nanaya forced himself to ignore Ori's gaze, "Hasn't the feedback on HF's web drama been pretty good recently~"
"Yeah, but no matter how good the rating is, it won't be as high as Emiya Meal." Shiki said unhappily.
Both HF and Emiya Fan web dramas are now online [See Moon], and the Nisei Case Files has also begun to be updated weekly.
These web dramas have received good reviews.
However, the drama with the highest rating among these three is the one with the lowest budget, "Emiya Meal".
This is not to say that the audience likes the show so much, but rather it relies on the contrast with its peers.
This web drama, like HF, will be released in its entirety at once.
However, unlike HF which carried out large-scale publicity, Washimine hardly invested much in publicity for the web drama "Emiya Meal" which was created with extra costs.
It is only announced on the [See Moon] website.
In fact, there are not many users who opened a new [See Moon] membership because of "Emiya Meal".
Most of the new users who have signed up recently are attracted by HF and "Case File".
These two web dramas naturally uphold the consistent high standards of [Erque Studio].
There is no need to talk about HF. Although Nanaya's work focus at that time was on FZ, the finished product of HF was not bad at all.
As for the "Case File".
Under Nanaya's guidance for several years, Ori's directing style has become very mature. Under his lens, fantasy detective dramas such as "Case File" are very well presented, whether it is the suspense of the case or the excitement of solving the mystery.
The audience gave both dramas rave reviews.
But although it was well received, the story content was really depressing.
"The Case File" is okay. The supervision style is a bit dark, but the protagonists are always intact.
But HF is completely different. The level of cruelty in it is comparable to its predecessor FZ.
Originally, the audience thought that at least the male protagonist Shirou Emiya could survive, but Nanaya chose the ending "Sakura's Dream"...
So the audience who were tortured once by Seven Nights in the cinema were tortured again by Seven Nights on the Internet.
Did someone from the Emiya family provoke you? !
The whole family was wiped out, leaving no chance of survival! !
Although HF's novels have been released in full set and are very popular.
But compared to the huge film and television group, the group that reads novels can only be considered a small part.
Originally, the audience thought that they would see in the HF that Shirou Emiya, who inherited Kiritsugu Emiya's will, would embark on a new adventure.
Now the adventure is there, but the people are gone.
Although this time Emiya Shirou's character arc is more complete and his personality is more likable.
But this result is really too tragic, isn't it?!
The protagonist died just like that?!
Then let's think about Emiya Kiritsugu who died in FZ...
Kiryu Nanaya, how much do you hate the Emiya family? ! !
Many fans are wondering whether HF is the FSN story line originally designed by Nanaya Kiryu.
But because the ending was too depressing, it was changed to UBW.
Wait until this FZ is released before releasing this story.
After all, compared to the relatively sunny and positive UBW, the darkness of HF's story is really comparable to FZ.
Having beautiful dreams, but ultimately not getting the corresponding results.
This is very obvious in both stories.
As a result, countless viewers began to denounce the authorities, believing that their hearts had been greatly traumatized and that an explanation was needed.
So in such an environment, "Emiya Meal", a story with a fresh style and without any disputes, naturally attracted everyone's attention.
Red flowers need green leaves to set them off.
Healing pills are more effective when taken together with depression pills.
In such an environment, the ratings and audience of "Emiya Meal" have been rising.
So far, it has become the most acclaimed Fate work on [See Moon].
After all, this kind of food series that simply tells about daily life usually has very good ratings as long as it is not too bad.
In addition, this time there is a story like HF as a foil, which further makes everyone feel the excellence of this web drama.
Some fans even called for Ryougi Ori to replace Kiryu Nanaya.
The reason is simply because what Kiryu Nanaya shoots is too terrible, while Ryougi Ori can shoot works that warm people's hearts.
At the same time, some people also expressed their understanding of why Nanaya wanted to make a movie with a simple plot like "Madoka Magica" after completing the FZ project.
After creating such a terrible story, I need a fresh and refreshing story to change my mind.
Of course, Nanaya just laughed off such arguments.
Anyway, when "Madoka Magica" is released, you will know what true heartwarming is.
"Speaking of which, Senior, when are you going to announce the ending of [Return of Spring]?"
Ori asked somewhat confused.
When filming HF, Nanaya shot both endings.
In fact, Nanaya had done the same thing before when filming UBW.
However, the ending in which Saber stayed in the real world was put into the DVD by Nanaya as a hidden ending.
However, in order to attract users to become paid VIP members, HF has no plans to release DVDs this time.
Nanaya turned his head and glanced at him: "Wait until the last episode of "Case File" is online. What's wrong?"
"No, it's just that recently many people in the HF comment section hope to change the ending." Ori replied, "So I want to ask you if you still want that ending."
"Of course I will use it. Why wouldn't I take a picture of it if I didn't use it?"
Nanaya said as a matter of course, "The question is how to use this clip to maximize its benefits."
Ori tilted his head: "What does this have to do with the "Case File"?"
"Of course there is. Think about it. In the last episode of "Case File", won't the emperor appear to remind people of the FZ story? Then FSN, as the sequel to the series, will naturally be mentioned. Isn't it just right for us to announce the ending of [Return of Spring] at this time to remind the audience of their memories?"
"Senior." Ori's face was full of black lines, "It's really hard to be your fan."
"Why do you say that?"
Ori replied unhappily: "Because the poor audience is being played around by you."
"Bullshit, there aren't many directors like me who are kind-hearted! Have you ever seen other directors prepare two endings for the audience to choose from?"
In order to maintain his reputation, Nanaya must of course fight back.
"Come on, senior, if you have a pure heart, then Grandet can be considered a good man for nine generations."
"Stop! The results are announced!"
Kevin Feige spoke up to stop the two from continuing.
As if to confirm Feige's words, a black face that Nanaya was very familiar with appeared on the screen.
Just as Nanaya had seen before, Obama became the new generation of American president.
