Chapter 349: Escape from Japan
🕑 Added 2025-06-01 14:51:14 +0000 UTCWhen you were kissing a woman, your ex-girlfriend found out.
And what should you do when your ex-girlfriend still wants you to continue with this woman?
To continue or not to continue?
"Continue with your second uncle."
Nanaya spat, and he immediately broke free of Shion's control when she hesitated.
Then Nanaya took two big steps to distance himself from Shion to avoid being knocked over by her again.
"When did you come?"
Nanaya asked his ex-girlfriend.
Sakura held the wine glass, tasting the scarlet liquid in the glass, and replied slowly: "I have always been here, but it's a pity that the two of you were so engrossed that you didn't even notice my presence."
[You didn't make any sound from beginning to end. I noticed that you were up to something.]
Nanaya never knew that his ex-girlfriend had the attributes of a cat and made no sound when she walked.
"Well, it seems that you are the dedicated type, Nanaya, which is very good."
Shion looked very happy, and she seemed to like Sakura's description of Nanaya.
[Is that what happened?! ]
The black line on Nanaya's forehead.
"It looks like you guys don't plan to continue." Sakura drank the red wine in the goblet in one gulp, "Then I'll go back. You'd better be quick, otherwise if someone finds out you're gone... like my stupid sister."
"Sakura, I..."
"No need to explain." Sakura interrupted Nanaya, "This is your private matter. Even if you kissed some unknown wild woman and got your lips swollen, it has nothing to do with me."
Sakura smiled brightly and walked down the stairs step by step.
"You don't look like nothing happened at all."
Nanaya gave a bitter smile.
"Isn't it better to leave?" Shion put a hand on Nanaya's shoulder, "Now there's no light bulb."
Nanaya glanced at his female boss and sighed softly, "Shion."
"I understand. Here you go."
Shion took her hand back, took out a towel and handed it over.
Nanaya put the towel on his face, and the cool feeling made him feel much more comfortable.
"Thanks."
Nanaya did not return the towel to Shion. He held the towel in his hand and said, "It's already very late today. I think they have almost finished making trouble. You can go down and say goodbye to everyone. Of course, you can also choose to go back to your room to rest."
Shion said softly, "You look very nervous. Is it because you find it hard to accept it all of a sudden?"
Nanaya didn't answer, he just looked at the other person without saying anything.
Ever since having a relationship with Rin, Nanaya has maintained the habit of keeping himself clean.
Apart from Rin, he hardly wanted to have any troublesome relationship with any other woman.
Shion knew Nanaya's temper, and this was asking her to leave.
But she didn't insist on staying or anything.
She just walked slowly towards the stairs, but when she passed by Nanaya, she stopped.
"I know that you guys are not into monogamy, especially those of you in the entertainment industry. I don't mind it, as long as you..."
In response to such a shameless Shion, Nanaya raised his voice slightly by an octave this time, and said in a warning tone, "Boss, you can leave now. Or are you planning to move out today? Do you want me to book a room for you in the harbor?"
"All right."
Shion said softly, "I'll tell Matsuno and the others that you drank too much and can't hold on any longer, so go back to your room and rest. Don't worry, I'll help you see them off."
Nanaya shook his head: "No, I will go and see them off in person later. You go back first, we don't want to appear in front of them together."
"Knew."
There was a hint of disappointment in Shion's eyes, but she still walked down the stairs slowly.
"Um, Shion."
Just as Shion was about to disappear around the corner of the stairs, Nanaya called her.
"Can you give it a little time? It will be good for both of us and for everyone."
Shion's eyes lit up and she nodded quickly.
"No problem."
Perhaps because Shion was too excited, she didn't notice how long Nanaya meant by "give some time".
Or maybe Shion noticed it, but deliberately chose to forget it.
———————————————————————
By the next day, the topic raised by yesterday's Japanese Oscars ceremony was far from over.
Whether they were ordinary fans of Fate, people in the entertainment industry, or just passers-by, they were all shocked by the fact that Fate swept the 29th Japanese Academy Awards.
The media were also busy. Various analyses began to emerge, and they began to make associations with the development of the Japanese film industry after this year's Oscars.
Of course, these people have not watched the original Japanese Oscars.
Otherwise, they would be even more surprised when they saw "San Chome" which was only one award away from the Grand Slam.
Unlike "San Chome", which was almost universally criticized in history, Fate was treated much better.
This is certainly because Fate is not as overbearing as "San Chome" in terms of award coverage.
On the other hand, it’s the old box office issue. This kind of commercial success is the basis for people to feel that Fate deserves its reputation.
The source of these heated discussions, Nanaya Kiryu, did not stay in Japan to enjoy the flowers and applause.
The day after the Japanese Academy Awards ceremony, Nanaya boarded a plane to North America.
Although Nanaya claimed that he was going to North America to work, only he himself knew that he was escaping.
However, even though he knew it, Nanaya didn't have any better solution.
After all, running away is shameful, but it is useful!
However, Nanaya forgot the old saying that you can't escape the fifteenth day if you can't escape the first day. When the new and old accounts are settled together, he might be even worse off.
But Nanaya thought that it was not just a simple escape. After all, he still had a lot of work to do when he came to North America.
The first issue is about the director of "Iron Man". After confirming that Sane would only serve as producer, Marvel began to screen the director of "Iron Man".
I don't know if it is the end of the world line.
Even though Marvel is now well-off and can hire any director to make movies except for external directors like James Cameron, in the end they still made the same choice as in history.
Elf director Jon Favreau becomes first director of a Marvel movie series.
Maybe Jon Favreau is not the perfect choice, but he is definitely the most cost-effective choice.
Jon Favreau has been an actor, a screenwriter, and a film director. He has considerable experience in the industry, and his relaxed filming style fits well with Marvel's early summer popcorn style.
As a movie that takes the first step to open up the situation, Nanaya will not make it as bitter and sentimental as "The Dark Knight".
The movie Marvel is going to make is neither a trilogy nor a seven-part series, but an ultra-long series of more than twenty films.
If you want to go long-term, you have to be popular, and Jon Favreau's style just meets Marvel's requirements.
Jon Favreau himself is also very interested in collaborating on "Iron Man", especially since the film's producer is Nanaya Kiryu, he is looking forward to this collaboration even more.
“It’s an honor to work with Director Kiryu, and I hope this collaboration will be a joy.”
When Nanaya saw this fat man with a funny face, he spoke in a casual manner.
"Not just this time, we will have many more collaborations in the future."
In the previous life, Marvel did not think about the follow-up at all when making "Iron Man". On the one hand, they did not have a complete plan for the Avengers at that time, and on the other hand, their own conditions did not allow it.
You're a flop comic book company making a movie and you want to sign a long-term contract. Are you sure you're not here to make people laugh?
But this time is different. With the support of Washimine, as long as "Iron Man" does not collapse like last year's "Fantastic Four", Marvel can start a sequel to slowly accumulate popularity.
Washimine and Nanaya offered Marvel quite relaxed conditions. As long as Marvel did not lose money, Washimine would invest until the end of the first phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This was their guarantee to Marvel.
So in this life, Marvel has signed long-term contracts with everyone from the very beginning, whether it is an actor or a director.
In Nanaya's opinion, this is a very good thing. At least it can unify the style of each hero's personal series of movies.
In Marvel's "Iron Man 1" and "Iron Man 2" in the previous life, there was a hidden line of Mandarin.
The bald terrorist who kidnapped Tony in "Iron Man 1" and the arms dealer Justin Hammer who appeared in "Iron Man 2" both wore rings of similar style but not the same type on their hands.
In addition, the bald terrorist called himself the Ten Rings Gang, which naturally gave fans endless imagination.
It’s a pity that due to the change of director in “Iron Man 3”, none of these hidden plots were used.
Nanaya hopes that this time Jon Favreau can complete the Iron Man trilogy and fill in all these gaps.
Of course, the setting of Mandarin in the comics cannot be used. After all, China is such a big market, and Nanaya does not want to give up.
But the character setting can be changed to a bearded man from the Middle East. After all, it’s not just Nanaya who are blackmailing them in Western movies.
Besides, what does Marvel's blackmail on you have to do with me, Nanaya Kiryu?
I have done enough to make you Middle Eastern people proud in the FZ and HF lines, okay?
In order to deceive Middle Eastern people into investing, Nanaya modified the plot about Hassan in FZ and HF.
Without changing the plot flow, he gave the Hundred Faces and the Cursed Arm a more positive image.
They were portrayed as loyal servants who ultimately had to suffer a tragic end because of their masters' betrayal.
Especially in FZ, the battle between Hundred Face and the King of Conquerors is much more different from the original novel where the king directly gave up and was crushed by the Macedonian army.
In Nanaya's script, Hundred Face chose to fight to the death. Compared with FZ in his previous life, Hundred Face in this life at least died with honor.
After all, this is in line with the character of the bearded men, isn't it?
In fact, Nanaya has always felt that the ending of Hundred Face in FZ is completely unlike what Big Beard would do.
Shouldn't the real Hassan have rushed into the army, shouting "Allahu Akbar" or "Long live the first generation", and used magic to detonate his body in the way of Red A's fantasy collapse?
As expected, Old Gen doesn’t understand the big beard.
