With the implementation of the new AV law, what do you think film companies are most afraid of?
Besides the fear of actresses unexpectedly demanding the removal of their work, there's also the fear of pre-arranged filming schedules being canceled. We've all been office workers; we know that unforeseen events can happen, and plans never keep up with changes. So in the past, if an actress had to cancel filming due to unforeseen circumstances or illness, the production company wouldn't be unable to understand, as long as the agency could find a suitable replacement. However, with the new AV law, contracts must be signed a month in advance, and once signed, male and female actors cannot be easily changed. Therefore, if someone has an issue, the entire filming schedule must be canceled, and all losses must be borne by the production company…
That's why everyone needs an actress like Ichijo Mio!
Why? Since her debut in 2018, Mio Ichijo has never missed or been late for any of her 700+ filming engagements, making her arguably the best workaholic in the AV industry. Unlike other actresses, Mio Ichijo lives in Hokkaido and only flies to Tokyo when she receives a filming invitation. We all know that flights are inevitably delayed or canceled for various reasons, but that has never affected Mio Ichijo; she always arrives at the studio on time, never causing any worry.
It's a pity there's no perfect attendance award in the AV industry, otherwise it would definitely be Mio Ichijo's (一条美绪). Although she's been in the industry for four years, given the current momentum of new regulations and her work ethic, she'll surely win the favor of production companies.
Good luck!
