Hi Gina,
How are things with you recently?
I was lucky enough to get a big contract with Kodansha in Tokyo, to do a book for them. So I will be up there sometime soon for meetings.
Take me out when i'm there please - but i dont like hip hop!!!
Yes, this blood group thing is odd but interesting. Good example of Japan is still a kind of 'magickal' culture. I mean they are supposed to be not very religious, but they still do LOTS of magick type practices and ideas, like putting little plates salt outside the door, or offerings of oranges at the small shrines, or the 'break bad luck arrows' at new year etc. (all of which i rather like!) On the other hand some people have told me there is a scientific proof of bloodtype/personality link. from now on when someone asks me my blood type i think i will reply: "It's RED!"
Gambatte in Japan!
Though i live here i have been increasingly visiting the USA for MY business as a writer over the last year or so. quick question: do you believe in this idea of Bloodgroup influences personality? I see you are A. Japanese people are amazed when they ask me my bloodgroup and i reply 'shiranai!' (most British pople have no idea of their bloodgroup).
My good friend Kelvin who is a top level producer and songwriter from London & New York, is expanding his repertoire out to Asian music. Currently he is producing several acts in Hong Kong, including MC Jin who raps in English and Chinese.
In the US he has produced songs for P.Diddy, John Legend, Mario and Erica Badu
I would love to introduce you to him at some point and see if there is some stuff you could work on together.
You can check out some of his songs on his Alive not Dead page, full name: Kelvin Avon
平泉ジーナは、現在最も有名なアジア・アメリカ人女優の1人です。第二次世界大戦を題材とした 映画「オンリー・ザ・ブレーブ(ONLY THE BRAVE)」で、ジェイソン・スコット・リー(JASON SCOTT LEE) (映画「ドラゴン:ブルース・リーの物語」の主役)と恋に落ちる1939年の美人コンテスト優勝者、 “エレノア・タカセ”を演じました。 ジョイラッククラブのタムリン・トミタ(TAMLYN TOMITA)や 空手キッド2のパット・モリタ(PAT MORITA)も、彼の最後の作品としてこの映画に出演しました。 またジーナは、アカデミー賞受賞監督クリス・タシマ(CHRIS TASHIMA)の映画、 デイ・オブ・インディペンデンス(DAY OF INDEPENDENCE)の主役にも抜擢され、さらに、 ラレンズ・テイト(LARENZ TATE)(映画 WHY DO FOOLS FALL IN LOVEでハリーー・ベリーと共主演) によって、ジーナは都会コメディー、ホット・スポット(THE HOT SPOT)の主演女優にも抜擢されました。 現在のポップカルチャーにおいて、彼女は純粋さと小悪魔的な両面を持つ女優と言えます。彼女の次なる活躍は、 カンボジア人, サム・ローン(SAM LORN)監督の国際映画「モイラ(MOIRA)(2009年公開予定)」 で初めて演じる脱獄者の役です。監督は、「ジーナは真の女優であり、信じられないほど素晴らしい才能や 演技力を持ち合わせている。」と彼女を賞賛しています。
