Unrivaled intuition.
I don't know who gave this name to Nanaya's future vision.
But one thing is certain, this came from the Washimine publicity and promotion department.
The reason is very simple, Nanaya has never been missed.
Whether it is an analysis of your own business strategy or an analysis of your business competitors.
All seven nights' shots were accurate and hit the target without any mistakes.
Especially when it comes to analyzing movie projects, this guy has an extremely accurate idea of which movie can make money and which one can't.
Although Nanaya himself called it a speculation based on his own professional qualities.
But everyone knows that if film projects are really so easy to predict, then there would be no so-called "80/20 effect".
——That is, 20% of the movies are high-quality and 80% of the movies are low-quality, but 20% of the movies will earn 80% of the box office in the market.
So when asked urgently, Nanaya could only say that it was due to his intuition.
Nanaya originally intended to use Edison's 99% effort and 1% inspiration as an excuse.
Then this group of people really regarded Nanaya's so-called 1% intuition as the key.
In addition, there is a skill called "Intuition" in the Fate movie series that Nanaya filmed.
Thus, the term "invincible intuition" became widely circulated.
Even the women around Nanaya often use this name to make fun of him.
Of course, what Shion hopes this time is definitely that Nanaya can specifically say which movies have the potential to become big hits.
You have to know that Hollywood seeks sponsors to shoot countless movies every year.
There are many heavyweight filmmakers involved in these projects, and they look very tempting.
What Nanaya needs to do is to pick out these projects and then let Shion cheat people.
Nanaya took on this task without hesitation.
But he didn't directly tell Shion what the projects were.
It's not that I don't want to, but I have no choice.
After all, Hollywood produces thousands of movies every year, and Nanaya is just an ordinary person.
He has neither the ability to preserve the memories of his past lives permanently, nor does he have a so-called virtual space hard drive in his head to record these things.
He might remember how many blockbusters there are every year, but he has no idea how many movies fail every year.
Only a special flop movie like "Dragon Ball" would leave a deep memory for Nanaya.
But it doesn't matter.
Nanaya has asked Shion to collect film projects that are currently in "development hell" in Hollywood.
Although Nanaya couldn't think of any flopped movies out of thin air, he would always have some impression of them when he saw the names.
Just when Shion asked the market researchers of Washimine Entertainment to find relevant movie information.
Nanaya herself has once again devoted herself to the preliminary preparations for "Madoka Magica".
After several more auditions, Nanaya finally got selected to star in the "Madoka Magica" movie from Trier.
After several auditions, Rin proved herself with her improved acting skills and got the leading role of Madoka Kaname.
Similarly, Sakura also got the role of Kaname Shunko as she wished.
This pair of people, who had been sisters since the beginning of FSN, eventually became mother and daughter in Nanaya's hands.
Um...
Something seems wrong?
Trier's new generation duo Yumi and Kujo Fuu were asked by Nanaya to play the roles of Homura Akemi and Kyoko Sakura respectively.
Luvia agreed to Nanaya's request and would play the role of Toudou Mami in the movie.
Something seems wrong again?
Why again?
Cough cough.
Next came the fool Astolfo, who Nanaya believed had unlimited "potential" in acting.
This guy's acting skills as a human being are so bad that they are like a typhoon passing through.
But wouldn't it be fine if he just wasn't allowed to act?
So Astolfo became the voice actor of QB in the movie.
Nanaya believes that Astolfo's silly voice must have been very confusing in the early stages of the movie.
No one would have thought that this little white animal with a silly and cute voice would be the big boss behind the scenes.
At the end of the movie, Astolfo reveals his true nature with his still silly and innocent tone...
Tsk tsk.
Nanaya couldn't wait to see the audience's expressions at that time.
Besides, after the movie is released, QB's peripheral products will definitely not sell well.
Well, unless you buy it to use as a punching bag.
But if we don't release peripheral products, it would be a bit of a shame to QB's cute appearance.
If we let Astolfo do the voiceover, maybe those fans who have sold their souls to Lucifer would obediently take out their wallets?
"The only question now is..."
Nanaya looked at the materials in his hand, which showed the last character in the Five Colors Team that had not yet been confirmed:
——Blue-haired Miki Sayaka.
"Who will play Sayaka?"
Nanaya let out a sigh.
Everyone in Trier tried, but no one could satisfy Nanaya.
Nanaya has a special feeling for the character of Sayaka Miki.
Putting aside the identity of the creator, just standing from the perspective of the fan.
Blue Hair is my favorite character among the Five color Sentai.
In the words of the idol world, Blue hair is Nana's single push.
This kind of liking is pure liking without any reason.
Or it would be more appropriate to describe the fate between Nanaya and Blue hair as falling in love with each other.
Although this character's body shape in the original animation is broad and muscular, and his legs are a bit short.
But Nanaya just likes Blue hair.
I like it if I like it.
If someone really asked, Nanaya could answer them proudly.
"I just want her body, I'm proud of it!"
Perhaps it was this kind of emotion that was brought into the audition, and Nanaya felt that no matter who played the role, they all lacked the flavor of Blue Hair.
In other words, the flavor that Nanaya hoped to have was that of Blue Hair.
"Maybe I'm being too picky."
Nanaya put down the materials and shook his head.
There really is a suitable candidate.
But first of all, Lily's schedule is indeed quite full.
Most of the filming time for "El-Melloi II Case Files" will overlap with "Madoka Magica", so Lily has no time at all.
More importantly, the two crews are located in North America and Japan respectively.
You can't ask Lily to travel halfway around the world to film every day, right?
Secondly, Lily's price is also a problem.
While the role of Altria brought Lily countless honors and applause, its disadvantages also began to become apparent.
Given Lily's current fame, her pay is not cheap.
Although Nanaya was able to use his relationship with her to get an "internal price".
But this is tantamount to cutting the blood of the girl with a blonde ponytail.
Even though Lily herself wouldn't mind, Nanaya still felt a little bit reluctant.
"Forget it, let's just use Lily as a backup plan for now."
Nanaya had no choice but to make this decision.
"Still can't decide?"
Old Gen, who was sitting next to Nanaya, heard Nanaya sighing constantly and looked up and asked.
"Yeah, the character of Sayaka Miki..."
"I think your request is too high." Old Gen said, "In fact, you can consider it..."
"No thanks, Old Kyon."
Nanaya quickly interrupted him.
"She is not suitable, you don't have to think about it anymore."
Old Gen replied with a bit of regret: "That's really a pity."
"Let's stop talking about Sayaka here for now." Nanaya obviously didn't want to talk more.
"Then let's change the subject." Old Gen didn't insist, "How is the review of my script going?"
Nanaya replied: "North America said that they have almost finished the review. The general direction does not need to be changed, just some details."
"That's good."
Old Gen breathed a sigh of relief.
What he discussed with Nanaya was the review of the script of "Madoka Magica".
You should know that the story of "Madoka Magica" involves a lot of religious elements.
In order to avoid possible religious risks, Gen had the script sent to North America seven days after it was finished for review by religious authorities there.
Don't underestimate this step, it is necessary for a movie with religious metaphors.
When people mention the United States, they think of it as a very open country.
But from a religious perspective, the North American culture is very conservative, even to the point of being old-fashioned.
In North America, people are offended because of religious issues and because of racial discrimination.
It's hard to say which of the two is worse.
As a widely disseminated medium, movies naturally need to pay more attention to such issues.
At that time, the great director Martin Scorsese thought he was the best in the world and wanted to challenge the religious authority.
So he filmed a movie called "The Last Temptation of Christ", but he almost got skinned alive.
In the end, not only did he get embarrassed, but the movie itself also suffered huge losses.
Since then, few people in Hollywood have gone against religion.
You should know that abortion and surgical intervention are rarely seen in Hollywood movies.
Even if there are such cases, people who do such things are portrayed as unforgivable villains.
The reason involved is religious factors.
Nanaya just found it ironic that abortion scenes were not allowed in movies, but many cases of children being abandoned after birth were found.
Many movie protagonists embark on adventures against this backdrop.
Perhaps, for North Americans, whether to have an abortion is a matter of religious principle, while whether to abandon a child is a moral issue.
Religious principles cannot be changed, but moral issues can be discussed.
Very good.
This is freedom, this is democracy, this is America.
In such an environment, the script of "Madoka Magica" naturally had to be reviewed by religious authorities.
Especially since there is a plot in the story about Kaname Madoka becoming a god, it is even more worth sending it to others to watch.
There are two benefits to doing this.
First, it can avoid touching minefields. These religious authorities are old scholars who have studied doctrine for many years.
They can tell at a glance whether the script has crossed the line and will directly make suggestions for revisions to the crew.
The second is to endorse "Madoka Magica".
What if after the movie is released, some idiot comes out and says there is something wrong with the movie?
These religious bigwigs will speak directly for this movie.
This shows that the film does not violate any doctrine or contain any blasphemy against the Bible.
This is also a kind of insurance against trouble.
