There have been hundreds (if not thousands) of inventions that were simultaneously invented by more than one person; including the cotton gin, the radio, using electricity, light bulbs, and the telephone, where the inventors had no idea someone else was working on the project. The names in the history books though are the "first" ones to patent their ideas. The point is - it happens every day when someone comes up with something they think is unique but someone else, somewhere else, has already thought of it.

Fukasaku has certain power over the scripts he want to direct, but he did not come up with the story and the script. However, the important thing is - Production company Toei DID buy the right to make the novel from Takami Kousen (the person who came up with the story). Now the story rights belong to Production company Toei.
