Inside the tavern, the originally harmonious atmosphere suddenly became solemn after Tang Ze's words.
The feeling was like spraying a bottle of liquid nitrogen on a boiling hot pot. The emotion that could have warmed one's heart instantly turned into a biting cold that penetrated into the bone marrow.
Looking at the tense atmosphere before him, although Tang Ze looked embarrassed as if he had said something wrong, he was actually calm inside.
“I’m so sorry…”
Seeing the almost frozen atmosphere, Tang Ze began to take the initiative to guide the direction of the topic: "If you don't mind, could you tell me the details of the matter?
I guess it has something to do with that TV series, right? "
Tang Ze's words at this moment seemed so abrupt, but they forced the three of them to suppress the negative emotions in their hearts.
After all, Tang Ze is still an outsider, and even if the three of them have conflicts, they cannot affect each other.
In addition, Tang Ze also invited the three of them to dinner. As the saying goes, "one who eats someone's food will be soft-spoken," this meant that he could not cause trouble for the "host."
At this time, an outsider is more useful than someone you know, because everyone has to consider your face, and even if they are angry about this topic, it is not easy to get angry.
Tang Ze understood and used this point reasonably, so he seemed so confident and pretended not to chat and went straight into the topic.
It was a small conspiracy. From the moment they agreed to have dinner with Tang Ze, they had to confess this topic one by one under Tang Ze's guidance.
"Sorry, we were rude." Hoshima Akira smiled embarrassedly and spoke first.
Seeing that their colleagues had taken the lead, Hirohiko Negami and Furumura also apologized to Tang Ze.
"It's okay, I'm the one who should be blamed for being rude..." Tang Ze waved his hand and said, "I didn't know that this topic couldn't be brought up..."
"Actually, it's just because it's our regret." Hoshima Akira said quickly: "Every time this is mentioned, everyone feels uncomfortable..."
"Could there be some hidden story?" Tang Ze revealed a serious expression. "To be honest, I'm a criminal. Could there be some hidden story behind the car accident..."
"No, no!" Hojima Akira waved his hands quickly after hearing what Karasawa said, "That car accident has nothing to do with the movie remake. It was just a simple accident!"
"Huh?" Tang Ze pretended to be a little unconvinced and joked, "Mr. Hoshima, you're making it even more suspicious, okay?
This kind of scene often appears in movies..."
"It's really not..."
Seeing that Detective Karasawa was beginning to suspect that this case might be related to the actor's car accident, Hoshima Akira glanced at Negami Hirohiko and Furumura, then smiled bitterly and said, "If that's the case, then I'll tell you..."
"Forget it, let me tell you." Hirohiko Negami said gloomily, "The movie you mentioned, whose name you can't remember, is the final chapter of 'The World of Parents'.
We had actually already finished filming the final chapter of the film, but something went wrong during the final check.”
Hirohiko Negami glanced at the silent Furumura and said, "As a developer, we have to be very careful and serious when checking bags, because we can't see what's going on in the darkroom. The only thing we can rely on is the sense of touch from our fingers.
But at that time, Gucun was too sleepy from playing mahjong all night and didn't have such a keen sense...
As a result, during the inspection, no one noticed that the tape was actually damaged, and just put it into the printing machine.
The result was that the camera was completely broken, forcing us to bear the huge cost of reshooting out of our own pockets. It can be said that the loss was very serious...
If that were all, it would be fine, but when we were reshooting, an important actor in the movie got into a real-life car accident..."
At this point, Hirohiko Negami gulped down a large glass of beer. Perhaps it was the effect of alcohol, the resentment on his face was beyond words. "You know, the series of films called 'Parents' were shot and produced in our studio from the very first one.
It could be said that he was the child of our East City Photo Lab and the pride of all our staff, but in the end, it was damaged... I guess he didn't even care about that movie at the time!"
"That incident is in the past, and I admit that I was wrong. What else do you want from me?"
Gucun, who had been silent the whole time, also drank a glass of beer, wiped his mouth and said irritably, "Besides, I no longer work as a photo printer, so I won't have to ruin the tape anymore. Isn't that all right?"
"But movies can never be perfect again!" Hirohiko Negami slammed the cup on the table and glared at Furumura.
“It’s not that there’s no way!”
Just as Gucun was about to speak, Tang Ze suddenly interrupted their argument and spoke directly.
This sentence instantly attracted the attention of the three people, and they all turned their eyes to Tang Ze.
"Tangze-san, this is no joke." Hojima Akira looked at Tangze and said, "The person is already dead, how could there be any solution..."
"That may not be the case." Tang Ze picked up a skewer of roasted bird and took a bite. Then, under the inquiring gazes of several people, he said leisurely: "I wonder if you have heard of disguise?"
"Disguise?"
The three of them looked at each other, somewhat bewildered, while Hoshima Akira looked at Tang Ze and asked, "Are you referring to the disguise in the TV series?"
"Yes, that's the disguise." Tang Ze nodded and smiled, "If we have the disguise, as long as we find someone with the same body shape to dress up as that person, we should be able to recreate the scene smoothly, right?"
"That's easy to say, but where can we find such high-end talent..."
Hirohiko Negami said somewhat depressedly, "I've only heard of people who can disguise themselves. It seems that only that elusive Kaito Kidd knows this technique...
As for other people, I haven’t even heard of it…”
"Don't worry about that. If I didn't know someone who's an expert in this field, there's no way I'd bring it up."
Tang Ze smiled and said, "It just so happens that I have a friend who knows this craft. It's absolutely no problem to make a fake look real. It's guaranteed to be the same as the real thing.
I introduced her to many production crews before, and now she is quite famous in the industry, and many people ask her to do specific makeup looks."
"Really?!" Hirohiko Negami was surprised for a moment, but then he became discouraged again: "What's the point of saying this now? It's too late...
The movie has already been aired, and it’s impossible to re-air it. Besides, the studio is not going to give us money to shoot it again…”
When Tang Ze heard what Hirohiko Negami said, he couldn't help but smile.
I've been waiting for you to say this!
