Tsutsumi Shinichi

:mrgreen: u welcome lah..
looks like Tsuyoshi is back to the mr nice guy role eh...
who knows... Tsutsumi may turn him into a $$$$$$$ :twisted: later on :naughty:

apparently there's some huh hah in Japan over the script of this drama
coz of speculation tat the script tries to model the success story of 32 year old Takafumi Horie, who's currently in a corporate tussle with FujiTv over the ownership of Nippon Broadcasting.. this lead to speculation tat this is the reason the title was changed from the original one (http://headlines.yahoo.co.jp/hl?a=20050303-00000032-sph-ent)... there's even rumours at one time tat the shooting of the drama may not go ahead.. but so far FujiTV has clarified tat the characters in the drama are not modeled after anyone...

hmmm looks like this drama has alreadi stirred a fair amount of attention b4 it even started :mrgreen:

*clear throat* hope i am boring everyone here :sweat:

Errrrrrr.......sorry I wasn't very clear in my previous post :bonk: it was actually Tsuyoshi's role tat was rumoured to model after Takafumi Horie at the beginning... but judging from Suzuki's character now... doesn't look like it leh *clear throat* as for Tsutsumi's character in the drama.. aggressive & money minded... heehee.. ur speculation may be right.. we'll see when the drama starts in April :mrgreen:

*nod head* Takafumi Horie is certainly a legend in Japan now...

hehe... tat pic very nice hoh...i think so too... he looks much better now compared to last year when he's filming Fly Daddy Fly..

Is the news considered a political matter? Up till now I still don't really understand abt the Horie fuss... :sweat:

Well, from wat I gathered from the commentaries and news, when the drama was 1st announced, it was rumoured tat the script tries to model the success story of Takafumi Horie. But, soon after tat, Takufumi launched a takeover bid on Nippon Broadcasting which holds shares in FujiTV. Fuji wasn't too happy about the takeover. So, if the script was intended to model Takafumi, it will probably have to be changed. Given the time available before the actual shooting of the drama, to revamp a script is no easy task. So, pple r wondering wat will happen to the drama then. .

The Livedoor (Takafumi's co) vs FujiTV takeover has become a hot topic
in media in the past month or so, coz guess its a rather unconventional and daring move on Takafumi's part to try & gain control of a media giant like Fuji..

So, given the initial speculation on the script of the drama and the dramatic turn of events now, pple r curious how the script of the drama will turn out to be...

As for wat is actually going on in the takeover saga i m equally :confused:

I saw the news from Fuji TV morning news if I'm not wrong. Or was it Mezamashi? Haha~

I got that issue of TV Guide too. I subscribe to it actually so I'll get it every week. The next issue will be Tsuyopon on cover so I guess it will cover more things on Koi ni~ Can't wait to watch this~ =)

And the part wer he was with Kimura and the weird pilot (forgot his name~ tanaka or something?) was the funniest of all~ tsutsumi did a very CUTE "ureshhhhh~" I wonder if you all got it? If not i'll try to post the direct emule link here :mrgreen:
