[This week’s Toei Superhero Chronicle].
The seventh time of the “Kamen Rider” 3 dystocia crisis.
In December 1970, the daily broadcast television station (MBS) and Toei’s new work plan “Cross Mask Kamen Rider” is progressing smoothly. The plan was finalized, the design was passed, and the actors and actresses of the male and female protagonists have already been finalized. Everything seems to be going smoothly. However, in the business scene, the planning site, and the production site, each of them has had troubles in three aspects, and it has become a difficult problem in the near future. .
The first one is MBS’s film and television minister, Zhuang Yezhi, who made a request to let Shisen Zhang Taro open a simultaneous serial in the comic magazine. This is the classic operation of the multimedia linkage business law, and it is now a basic operation of the Tone Animation’s beautiful girl series. Using all available resources for an overwhelming offensive is like a coalition. The general entertainment activities that belonged to minors in that era were basically comics. There was a synchronous serialization in comic magazines, and the publicity effect on the new program groups on TV was too great. .
As a result, standing in the position of Dongying’s TV business director, Watanabe, and Shisen’s agent, Kato’s agent, of course, the choice is to contact the editor of the weekly magazine’s “Weekly Magazine”. Win. In the past serials, Uchida has been repeatedly mentioned. Watanabe and Uchida are already old since “Robot”, “Giganto”, “Demon King”, “Reformer 009”, “Judo Line”, “Tiger Face Man” Comrades. Wanting to open a new serial is of course just a trivial matter, but it is not as simple as it was imagined. .
Because this is all year-end preparation for the New Year, the Uchida family has already traveled abroad, and will not come back when they start work after the long holiday of the first month! This is troublesome. The new program group began in April 1971. This was the first time in June 1970 when MBS was compiled and the second longest was organized. If I really waited for Uchida to come back to Tokyo in a month, then talk to him about it and then finalize it, and then wait until the magazine arranges the stalls and Shisen can start writing, and then open a new comic series to form a publicity effect, it is too late. Drop. .
Swollen, the two producers of Pingshan Heng and Abe Zhengsi of Dongying took the initiative and took the Kato agent and ran together. As long as I met, everything was fine. On the spot, Uchida arranged the arrangement in the room. The phone calls were also explained. The rest was handed over to them with documents and rushed back to Tokyo. So I went directly to the accommodation of a tourist destination in Uchida. It turned out that this cargo is in the resort of Hachijojima. Although this place is still administratively in Tokyo, it is also geographically true and overseas. .
The best-selling comic book at the time was the “Weekly Youth Magazine”, and the intention to contact Uchida was also serialized on this. However, the fire is such a tight seat, of course, you still have to wait for an emergency in the new series, then there is no room for it. However, Uchida said that there is still a rescue, and I will put it in the “Weekly Magazine” to serialize. This is the equivalent of the magazine “Weekly Magazine” is a brother. The age of the object is lower. It used to be a monthly magazine, and it was changed to a weekly magazine a year ago. If this is the case, then there is only this option, and it is not a problem. .
In fact, in the era of the previous monthly magazine, the first edition of the Aote series in the 1960s also had a multimedia-linked campaign like this comic, which was serialized on this. The important reference object of “Kamen Rider” was “Tiger Face Man”, which was also serialized on it at the time, so it is still a superior condition. In addition, this younger magazine is not as crowded as the brother magazine, so the vacancy in each serial is more generous, which means that the number of pages can be more and the screen can be larger. Although it is possible for Shisen to be so busy, he may be more tired. However, if he is serialized in a very crowded place, he may not be able to express the power that Shisen wants to express. .
The second one is that Shisen himself came to Pingshan again. After the talks were urgently settled, on December 25, 1970, on the Christmas day of foreigners, MBS, Toei and Shisen made three trips, and for the first time, a formal large-scale production conference was held. The overall situation has been set, and this has finally passed an Ansheng year, and turned to January, one night, Shisen suddenly called a phone to Pingshan. It’s embarrassing to say Pingshan Sang, the design of the cross mask was canceled, and I had some new ideas. This matter is very troublesome, and it is completely dilemma to make Pingshan.
The first is that it is difficult to understand the subjective, cross Kamen’s original design was unanimously applauded, ah, Shi Ping Shan Sen himself satisfied with himself, to pay up all kinds of giant also said good handsome. As a result, you suddenly become bloated, and it’s scary that you can’t make it. Then it is difficult to operate objectively. The boss has already issued the production license. The TV station has also passed, and contacted the publishing house to prepare the comic magazine for serialization. .
Since the launch began less than 3 months, at this point you said that you want to cancel the change, the multiple cost loss and time cost incurred by the replacement, especially the large-scale batch printing of the magazine. . The shape design of the fictional character, this thing is the most direct image that most stimulates the eyes of the audience, which is similar to the sudden change of the main character in the TV series. This makes Pingshan, which is sandwiched in the middle, not good for people. He has to slap the scalp to the giants and run again. He said that the design drawings should be withdrawn and canceled. .
Generally, only the capitalists above are dissatisfied, and they are re-engaged. It is very difficult to see the reverse in this year. I propose to cancel the change. Shi Sen explained that the previous design map wow was indeed my painting, and I was satisfied. But thinking over and over again, I still lack the feeling of a flash of light. You see this is like a so-called marriage, the old saying that who has the appearance of talent and money is simply the perfect object, the small said but the call is not broken (although the call will always dissipate anyway). Then, what is the shape of Shisen’s call design? Take a look at Pingshan. There is a gimmick on the new design painting. The whole body is mainly white, which is a bit sinister. .
Shisen recruited, in fact, I was taking the opportunity to work on Amway’s previous work, “Scorpio”. This “Deaf” was published a year ago, also in the “Weekly Magazine” of the Kodansha, but in a total of one short story. The nature at this time is equal to, one that has ended and has become a thing of the past. However, Shisen particularly liked this, and the original shape was moved so that the role name was called “Kamen Rider”. .
Pingshan thinks that it is not bad, because the childhood of their generation of Japanese, the most natural superhero is “Golden Bat”. That is the shape of the golden dragonfly, plus the black large cloak shaped like a bat. In the childhood of Pingshan in the 1930s, there was no era of popular home TVs. The “Golden Bats”, which was born in the form of paper-and-paper, infiltrated the entertainment world of this generation of children. Please refer to Anitama’s previous serial “Review and Collection of the History of Japanese TV Animation in the 20th Century”. 第八回 Section 2, or “The pedigree of Toei and Sunday morning 66 years.” 第二十三回. .
Pingshan was the first person to appreciate the design of the “Kamen Rider”, so he wrote a “Moodman Knight Set Memo Notes”. This note has three characteristics. The first is the key setting of the later “Kamen Rider” feature film. The main points are already in the final form. The purpose of repairing the card is to conquer the world, use the geeks to repeat the crime and destroy the work; the township is a reformer from the repair card; wind pressure and water pressure are his energy; the locomotive can be deformed; these are the notes The final clear entry. .
The second is to record extremely detailed and meticulous to the premise of the video works, and to indicate the points that need attention in terms of performance and sound effects. The third is equivalent to the setting of the end of the set, in fact, some settings later have no space in the film, one by one, or directly abandoned, such as the flat next to the hometown of the town is the flat of the green rice glaze. .
However, in terms of design drawings alone, this time the other way around is that the boss does not agree with the TV station. Hirayama gave him a look at Watanabe, and the minister of Watanabe said that he is not a person who has painted before. When the big win is negative, you must make something new. This is not the case. Looking at the Tokyo branch of MBS, I haven’t waited for the director of the film and television department to take a look at Ye Fangzhao again. The business is scared first. .
The deputy director of the first department of the TV business of the business bureau called Boxagaki, who opposed the fiercest, saying that this bone is a bit of a disgusting. Big Brother, even if I beg you, only the bones are not to drop, the bones are beyond you. You tell the truth with it, most sponsors will be food and drug companies, they are basically the old guy’s head. It’s the kind that is about to enter the grave. It’s very uncomfortable for you. It’s unlucky.
The business person is at the forefront of diplomacy, saying that this matter is too convincing. As long as the money is not seen, then what plans, ah, plots, performances, performances, design, all intentions are all empty. This is the reason for generations. At that time, the old generation of childhood had no “golden bat”. Hirayama had to go back and tell Shisen that he was defamed and consider other things. This incident actually made Shi Sen quite hit, and the whole expression stayed. Later, when I calmed down, I was obviously unwilling, and my mouth was muttering. This looks very good, obviously very good. .
Such the “骷髅人” thing itself has to follow up, it must be decades later. At that time, Shishen could only continue to paint other shackles. This time he painted dozens of pictures, and he could not find any feeling that would make him shine. At this juncture, the Kato agent had a wave of assists. He brought an insect book, and excitedly opened it in front of Shisen, how, this! That page is a close-up photo of the front of Zhangye, so it’s quite powerful and terrifying. The most important point is that when you look at the front of the locust, you can imagine it. Shisen is overjoyed, oh, that’s him! .
This will be able to contact two points immediately. First, in the previous “Crossed Mask Kamen Rider” plan and “Kamen Riders Set Memo Notes”, the keywords of wind energy have been identified. This matches the flying insects of the locusts, so the protagonist of the newly designed locust image has a windmill on the belt. Second, insects are even better than the cheekbones and can be used as a symbol of nature. Repairing the card is the evil that destroys nature. The protagonist of the locust shape is the superhero against it, so the newly designed mask has a feeling of tears under the eyes. .
Also gave the eldest son, Onoji, a handsome and handsome man. At that time, Azhang, who was under 5 years old, really picked a locust as a prototype from more than 50 designs. This is related to the social background since the post-war period in Japan. The 1950s was the recovery period. The 1960s was the peak period of rapid development. The GDP growth rate in the past year was double-digit. After the rapid development of industry and economy, by the end of the 1960s and early 1970s, the problem of environmental pollution became the first hot spot at that time. The idea of a superhero symbolizing nature was a step in the game that was both hot and politically correct. .
Others don’t say anything, just to say that this feature is very relevant to this series of photos. In 1971, the Gogura film “Gojilla vs. Black Dora” is based on environmental pollution. The masterpiece of the theme. Inconsistent, it is also the 1971 Meyerla series, “嘎美拉 to the deep sea monster Ji Gula” also mentioned this problem. In the same year on television, the new program “Cosmic Devil” in January was also the subject of environmental pollution. Special film production by the P-film factory of Ichiro Fuxiong, the disciple of Yoshitani Yoshiyuki, and the special performance supervision of the first edition of the Otto series. In April, the new program “Returning Altman”, the first words also came to a sludge monster Zhazan. .
The third is the most difficult and the most difficult problem to overcome. The strategy of the planning site decided that the strategy of going up to the business site was also decided, and the production site was made. Originally, this is the most unobstructed link. Toei’s old film and television industry giants are making the necessary venues, equipment, and personnel for the new film. However, when the production of “Kamen Rider” approached the official opening of the gate, it was found that this was the most difficult part of the six months since the establishment of the case. .
Toei’s production system, detailed (and brain-burning) explanations, can refer to the past serial “Dongying Children’s Chronicles”. 第六回 中段, I only talk about the specific situation of “Kamen Rider” at the time. In the general direction, the necessary hardware condition for making film and television works is the photography studio. Toei has two photography studios since ancient times. It is in Tokyo, Tokyo, and the Tokyo Institute of Photography in Taichung, Kyoto. .
Tokyo photography is mainly based on modern drama, Kyoto photography is the main drama of the era, and “Kamen Rider” is of course a modern drama, so the premise is made in Oizumi. The studio is a direct office of the Dongying head office. It is not a subsidiary that does not have legal personality. However, there are three subsidiaries in the Daquan Photography Institute that are engaged in video production business and Dongying. The first one is called Dongying TV Studio, which is mainly for making general TV dramas; the second one is Dongying Tokyo Production Institute, which is mainly for making children’s film TV series; the third one is Dongying Animation, which is of course clear at a glance.
The three manage production affairs, you can use the production resources in the Daquan Photography Institute, such as venues, equipment, personnel and so on. If it is to make a movie, it is the parent company Toei directly uses the Daquan Photography Institute. “Kamen Rider” is a modern drama children’s film, so of course it is produced by Toei Tokyo Production Institute. In the 1960s, the well-known so-called Dongying special photo was also basically produced by Toei Tokyo Manufacturing Co., Ltd. .
At the same time, the production lineup of the “Kamen Rider” scene has basically no suspense to adopt the “Judo Line” team. It is one of the pillars of the sports roots of the late 1960s, which was also produced by Hirayama Hiroshi as a producer, and the producer of the TBS side is the Hashimoto, the script is also the script. Sasaki Suzuki and Uehara Masaru of the Otto series. “Judo Line” will end in April 1971, so from the perspective of the production site, the spirit of the last group is exactly the April 1971 new show “Kamen Rider.” .
But everything above is ideal. The producer of Judo Line was called Uchida. At the end of November 1970, Ishida, the director of Toei Tokyo’s production office, called Uchida to announce a bad news to him. The Daquan Photography Institute is definitely not in use. If the new program group “Kamen Rider” really wants to make it out, there is only one way to exile and go out and look at it outside the Daquan Photography Institute. The person in charge of the production is the general manager of the on-site practice, and the details of the budget, schedule, personnel, etc., scheduling, and negotiation must be handled. Their assistants are the production director and the production, etc. They are the reserve soldiers of the future producers. .
The situation in the 1970 Daquan Photography Institute was gradually worsening. The dispute between the company (Toei) and the employees’ labor and employment relationship continued. In November, Ishida’s director finally declared no hope to Uchida. Because the next large-scale proletarian movement in the company is coming, the staff of the studio plans to hold another round of strikes in early 1971, just in time for the new work “Kamen Rider” to begin production. Therefore, it will inevitably be affected, and the labor union will not allow any works to be produced in the Daquan Photography Institute. Once the company’s products are still produced during the strike, it certainly means the company’s victory and the failure of the proletarian movement. .
It is impossible to stop the strike or the crew is still openly shooting. This is tantamount to betraying the little friends who usually work together. So if you still want to make sure that the new work can be made smoothly, then there is only one solution left, and it will be self-destructive outside the Daquan Photography Institute. Our serials are in. 第二回 “The Kamen Rider’s Three Stars” mentioned that after the planner Hirayama Henhe and the producer Abe Seiji, the third will be star Uchida, the 40th anniversary of the July 2011 Kamen Rider The initiator of the event is here. The battle of Uchida has just begun. In order to settle this matter, he was counted in the 1971 New Year. .
