Bab 106: Chapter 106 Celebration Party
"I want to be paid, too, okay?"
With the noisy celebration banquet as the background, the priestess played by Luvia spoke timidly to the camera.
"What do you want?"
Gawain, wearing a helmet, turned to look at Luvia.
"Can you... take off your helmet so I can see it?"
Gawain in the helmet glanced at the camera with the corner of his eye, where director Nanaya Kiryu was counting down with his fingers.
After Nanaya indicated zero with his hands, Gawain slowly took the helmet off his head.
Luvia was stunned for a moment, then she was surprised and delighted, and finally she showed a very happy smile.
"You look much more handsome like this~"
But before Luvia could finish her words, she heard the cheers of the crowd behind her.
"Wow————————!"
"Cut!"
Nanaya decisively called a halt, an excited expression on his face: "This one passed. The work is done!"
This sentence brought happy smiles to the faces of everyone present. They stood up from their seats and hugged each other to congratulate each other.
Not only the actors in front of the camera did this, but even the staff behind the scenes shook hands with each other to celebrate.
"Thanks, man."
"It's been a pleasure working with you!"
··
Currently, Nanaya is filming the scene in the Goblin Slayer movie where the adventurers defeat the goblin army and hold a celebration party.
This was not the last scene for the crew of "Goblin Slayer", but it was the last scene with most of the actors and staff of the crew present together.
After today, the crew of "Goblin Slayer" will be greatly reduced, and most of the actors and temporary staff will leave the crew and go their separate ways.
Only a few actors will remain on the set to shoot the remaining scenes.
It makes sense for Nanaya to save this scene for this time. It is not only a celebration party for the adventurers in the movie, but also the last reunion scene for all the crew members.
To this end, Nanaya very appropriately held a celebration party for their crew - right here on the set.
Soon, amid the cheers of the crew members, the chef team that Washimine Shion had prepared in advance brought countless fine wines and various dishes to the table.
The plastic food that was originally used as props was removed and replaced with real food that would make people salivate.
Taking into account that the crew members come from various countries and regions, Shion specially invited chefs of various cuisines.
American fast food, French food, Japanese cuisine and Nanaya's favorite Chinese food were all served to the crew members.
"Roar!"
Several European and American actors who like excitement were particularly active, clapping and cheering constantly. In particular, a teddy dog, with his upper body naked and wearing only jeans, did a tap dance on the dining table.
Fortunately, there is air conditioning in the room, otherwise this kid would definitely catch a cold.
"Hi, Kiryu."
Shion came over from behind and grabbed the arm of Nanaya, who was eating secretly in the corner, and said, "Why don't you, a key figure in the crew, come over? I didn't see you when I toasted everyone in the crew just now."
Except for the moment when he toasted everyone with a glass of wine at the beginning, Nanaya disappeared. It took Shion a long time to find him.
"I don't particularly like this overly lively scene. It's not as comfortable as eating here alone."
Nanaya sighed, broke free from Shion's hand, and continued to busy himself with the food on the plate.
"I don't particularly like it. When I was a kid, I really longed for this kind of free and easy party. But when I was studying in the United States, I attended a few of them and found them boring."
Shion sat next to Nanaya, and she and the director looked at the people having fun at the party.
"Do you think our movie will be successful?"
"Of course." Nanaya said while chewing a piece of pork ribs, "This is our movie. And I think that as the first producer of a movie, you have to have confidence in your work."
"Maybe." Shion took a sip of the cocktail in her glass. "But I still want to thank you anyway. If it weren't for you, it would have been hard to hold on."
Nanaya stopped stuffing food into his mouth and asked with his head tilted: "Isn't that the opposite of what you said? Shouldn't I be the one thanking you for giving me this opportunity?"
"No, it's true."
Shion laughed at herself, "You know what? When I first took the position of chairman, I was very scared. I know very well how my grandfather lost his position, and I'm afraid they will do the same to me."
Nanaya lowered his head and said nothing.
When he was preparing to cooperate with Washimine at the beginning of the year, he had learned some things about Washimine.
When Washimine's new host computer failed, the entire company was in a panic, because it was impossible for one person to bear the blame for the failure of such a large project.
If we really want to hold someone accountable, a large number of people from Washimine to the top will definitely be fired, and no one wants to be one of them.
So everyone in the company worked together to find someone who could take all the blame at once - the then chairman and president of Washimine, Washimine Shion's grandfather.
Although the outside world said that Shion's grandfather took the initiative to take all the responsibility, the entire Washimine team played a very disgraceful role in this process.
It was probably because the betrayal of the entire company made the old man feel disheartened, so he used the remaining power in his hands to push his confidant Satoshi Iwata and his granddaughter to the positions of president and chairman respectively.
After that, he never interfered in the company's affairs again.
Just like what he said before leaving - "I will no longer be involved in the company's affairs, and the future of Washimine will be handed over to the young people."
In Nana's memory, Yamauchi Hiroshi of the original world really did this. Whether it was the success of Will or NDS, or the failure of Will-u, the old man just watched silently, as if all this had nothing to do with him.
"I was really scared at the time, fearing that one day those people would burst into my office and kick me out of my position as chairman."
Shion stared at the pale yellow cocktail in the glass with a wandering look.
"You know what? When I started this project, I didn't even think about success. I just wanted to go against those guys. You look down on me, so I'll do what you don't want to do. You want to stay in the gaming industry for the rest of your life, so I'll move into the entertainment industry!"
"So, you never thought about success from the beginning?"
"Do you remember what I said to you at that time?" Shion winked at Nanaya, "I said I don't care about the box office, I only care about influence. In fact, isn't a bad reputation a kind of influence?"
[So you can get away with making a super bad movie? ]
Nanaya raised his eyebrows, picked up the wine glass beside him and said, "That's a pity, because this movie will definitely be a success."
Shion laughed: "I just like your confidence. At the beginning, I thought you were bragging and that you were totally messing around. But now, after seeing the finished products you have completed, I think you can definitely succeed."
"Kiryu Nanaya, you did a great job!"
Raising his glass, he clinked it with Nanaya's glass, then Shion drank the cocktail in one gulp.
Then Shion bumped her fist against Nanaya's and said, "I hope we can have a chance to work together again in the future. If you can't find investment for your movie, you can come to me."
"I hope so."
Nanaya also drank the water in the cup.
Well, this guy's cup is filled with boiled water for clearing the mouth.
"So, does this mean that I won't be thrown into Tokyo Bay?"
"Of course... no."
Seeing the depressed expression on Nanaya's face, Shion laughed. She patted Nanaya's shoulders twice and said, "If the box office fails, I will definitely throw you into Tokyo Bay, but don't worry, I will ask Iioka to fish you out."
"Why are you so obsessed with Tokyo Bay?"
Shion opened the folding fan she carried with her, her eyes full of pride: "Of course it's my own aesthetics."
"Senior."
Rin's voice sounded behind the two of them.
"Ala, now that you have a romantic partner, I won't be a light bulb anymore."
With that, Shion stood up and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, she whispered in Nanaya's ear: "I'm taking her back to Japan tomorrow, so if you want to do anything, you need to hurry up, and it's best to do it tonight."
"Hello!"
Nanaya shouted in dissatisfaction, but Shion seemed not to hear him and walked away with a smile.
"Rin... hello."
Because of what Shion said when she left, Nanaya seemed a little restrained when facing this junior schoolmate.
"Senior, I'm here to apologize. I punched you too hard last time."
Rin said as he bent down and bowed.
"Well..." Nanaya was about to say it was okay, but he quickly figured out something was wrong, "Wait a minute, why are you apologizing for being too harsh? Shouldn't you be apologizing for being too aggressive?"
"Who asked you to show me something so ugly?" Rin blushed and turned her head away. "I'm not ready yet..."
"What?"
"Nothing, this is my apology."
Rin said as he took out an apple and placed it in front of Nanaya.
Nanaya took the fruit and put it into his mouth without thinking: "Let me tell you, do you think a piece of fruit after a meal can make me - Bah! Bah!"
The moment his teeth touched the apple, Nanaya immediately spat out the apple - it was a prop apple carved out of polystyrene by the crew.
"Tohsaka Rin! You girl!"
Nanaya wanted to catch Rin and punish her, but Rin, who had anticipated this, had already run away.
"Baka-senpai~" Rin stuck out her tongue and made a face at Nanaya, "That's the punishment for showing me that thing! You gave me nightmares the other day! This is my apology."
As he said that, Rin took out a new apple and threw it to Nanaya.
This time it's real.
"Hmm...it's pretty sweet."
Nanaya, who was chewing an apple, shook his head helplessly at Rin who was jumping away.

Onigiri pS: Speaking of which, I saw the news a few days ago that Andy Serkis is going to be the director of Venom 2. Currently, this guy only has one film, Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle, on his directorial resume, and the quality is really not that good. Because the story is based on Netflix, the special effects are an order of magnitude lower than Disney's The Jungle Book. It's not bad, but just so-so.
I hope this motion capture master can make a breakthrough in "Venom 2".
