Working People Interview | Vol. 01: Yoshihiro Suzuki, the Producer Who Made “Galileo” a Hit – Page 2 | Oricon Rankings for Job Changes, Temporary Employment, and Careers
At work, is the priority “relationships” or “sense of fulfillment”?
For Yoshihiro Suzuki, is the priority at work “relationships” or “sense of fulfillment”? He smiled and answered, “For me, it's neither.” Everyone struggles with workplace relationships, so isn't it perfectly natural to value working with people you get along with?
Preceding his answer with a note that it might sound a bit arrogant, Suzuki offered an unexpected response: “I don't think the risk changes whether I work with people I've worked with before or new people. I manage reasonably well (laughs).” He casually added, “Working with people you know can lead to taking relationships for granted or getting stuck in arguments and not moving forward, right? I don't think that's that different from the anxiety of teaming up with new people,” and you can't help but agree.
The Reason Behind Changing the Director and Lead Actress for ‘Galileo’ Season 2
As if to back up those words, the April season drama Galileo, which recently concluded its final episode, saw changes in both director and lead actress from the previous series.
For any project, the director is the command center. This change left everyone stunned. “It was my first time making a sequel, and doing the same thing again was actually pretty tough,” he said with a smile. "I worked with Director Nishitani on ten episodes of a serial drama and then the movie Suspect…. I respect him deeply. But I felt he'd done everything he could with the previous one. That's why I suggested the change. The director asked me, ‘Do you hate me?’ and I replied, ‘Absolutely not!’ (laughs)."
He also revealed that the highly publicized change in the female lead stemmed from similar reasoning. However, regarding this proposal, he stated, “Kou-chan (Shibasaki) brought it up herself. She had exactly the same idea as me. After filming the movie, we were chatting, and the topic of a sequel came up. Then she said, ‘Wouldn't it be better if I wasn't the next partner?’”
Shibasaki reportedly shared a clear vision: “Next to Professor Yukawa, you need a rookie who can't understand him, gets tossed around, and is constantly frustrated. That's what makes Professor Yukawa's charm really stand out.” "I was really surprised when she said Kaoru, who's starting to understand the genius Galileo, wouldn't work. I even asked, ‘Do you hate us?’ (laughs). But Kou-chan was right. She truly cares deeply about the work. Once filming started, she missed us. That's why she appeared in Episode 1 and why we planned a spin-off drama starring Kou-chan where Yukawa also appears."
If it's not new, it's meaningless. If there's no anxiety when starting something new, it's not truly “new.” “If you try to make it perfect based on the last one, that won't work. If the young guys don't challenge themselves to ‘surpass the previous work,’ the sequel isn't complete.”
