600. in the first place
From the big awards incident, Janis was forced to calm the anger of the industry at the cost of withdrawing from all awards. and then to today's situation of not being able to get off the stage, everything is because of the selfishness of Mary Kitagawa.
The sinner on the surface is Kondo Masahiko, and of course, he is by no means innocent.
But in the final analysis, it will be because of Marie Kitagawa's quick success.
Kitagawa Ko has no children of his own, and the family business is the first choice if he succeeds to the throne in the future. But Mary's premature appearance of the heir position as something in Keiko's pocket made him unhappy.
In addition, this time, Keiko was sandwiched between Mary and Kondo Masahiko, at the mercy of Mary, and she showed no assertiveness and inability, and she didn't look like a person with any eloquence.
Kitagawa Ku thought of this, and his heart was not painful or unhappy. However, he kept all his thoughts in his heart first. It is imperative to minimize the negative impact of the matter.
First held a press conference, let Kondo Masahiko take all the blame on himself, apologize on the spot, and announce his withdrawal from the firm. After that, I put pressure on the media to reduce follow-up reports, and even if I wanted to report, I had to quote Kondo Masahiko.
Anyway, Kondo Masahiko must quit the entertainment world, and he is not allowed to make a comeback in any form.
Without this person, over time, the public will forget and accept this patched memory.
"I got in touch with NTV and was given permission to hold an emergency press conference at four o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Bai Bo Sejie said at this time, "Tonight, NTV will use subtitles to preview the program." ”
"The newspaper has also dotted it, and tomorrow's morning newspaper will also publish the news of the press conference. "Shiraba Sejie is resolute in his work.
Kitagawa finished arranging everything and glanced at Kondo Masahiko who was kneeling, "Do you understand?" ”
Kondo Masahiko didn't dare to say much, so he could only kowtow, "...... Got it. ”
Jenny and Mary, the two siblings kicked him out of the entertainment world with a few words. Kondo knelt there, chilling all over, feeling relentlessly crushed by the kind of power he had longed for. And he was powerless to resist.
Hakuha Sejie walked over, pulled him up, and looked at his face, "Matchy's face hurts?" He looked at Kondo Masahiko with a blank face, and his tone was calm, "Tomorrow's press conference, the makeup artist will be busy." ”
"I'll arrange the specific things. Before the press conference began, Matchy just had to stay in the office and have a good rest. ”
"Anyway," the corners of his mouth showed a slight mockery, "I have the PR department working through the night for you, and the huge workload includes preparing for you to say at the press conference." ”
Bai Bo Sejie looks down on this kind of guy who doesn't know how many pounds and taels he has. This kind of guy who relies on the firm from beginning to end doesn't want to think about how everything he has ever gotten came about.
His fluttering sarcasm, like a frightened dog, did not dare to speak, with his tail between his legs, and was dragged out of the office by Hakuba Sejie with an invisible rope around his neck.
There are only two siblings left, and Keiko Fujishima.
Kondo Masahiko left, and as soon as Kitagawa Mari's strong breath was relieved, she began to feel weak, dizzy, and her internal organs were aching.
I'm going to the hospital tomorrow......
She was thinking in her heart, Kitagawa opened her mouth and arranged: "Tomorrow's press conference, Julie, You will also be there." ”
When Mary Kitagawa heard this, she felt another slap in the face, and the pain deepened.
Keiko Fujishima was suddenly named, a little confused.
Kitagawa Marie couldn't tolerate her daughter and Kondo Masahiko appearing at the same time, and she tried to stop it, but was interrupted by Kitagawa Kanto, "As the manager of the office, I was introducing the new group that was about to debut to the media present." ”
To completely kick Kondo Masahiko out of the public eye, in addition, it is necessary to find a way to clear the "marriage contract" that was boiling with the acquiescence of Kitagawa Marie.
Kitagawa is dissatisfied with Mary, but after all, the siblings are still the closest partners. Although she doesn't like Keiko's talent, she is also the first choice for the heir so far. No matter what, she has to stop this matter for her first.
"The candidate group 'Heike faction', who dances for GENJI, selects a few children from it to make their debut. At tomorrow's press conference, I will announce that the media present will take care of it and help publicize it. ”
Kitagawa looked at Keiko Fujishima and advised: "You have only been in contact with Match a few times because you want to be familiar with the business of idols, and you have never planned to have a relationship with him, but the media made a mistake." It's just that You believes in the rule that people behind the scenes don't come to the front of the stage, thinking that rumors will be self-defeating, so they never care about reports related to themselves. ”
Whether the public believes it or not, and whether the media believes it or not, this is the truth anyway, and it can only become a fact.
Kitagawa Kuo not only wants to suppress things for Keiko Fujishima by letting a new idol group debut, but also to give Keiko Fujishima a chance to show whether she has talent.
From the selection of newcomers to the production of idols, Kitagawa is deeply involved in all aspects. The successor in his mind can be slightly inferior in ability, but he must be able to inherit his philosophy.
Since Mary is anxious to let Keiko lean into the position of heir, let Keiko first show some talents worthy of great responsibility.
Keiko Fujishima turned into surprise, "Yes." ”
Mary Kitagawa was on the sidelines, also relieved. Keiko Fujishima was named for the first time in public as a manager, which was also a kind of acknowledgment of Jenny for her.
This time, because Kondo Masahiko made a big fool, he finally had some comfort at the end.
"So," Mary Kitagawa cared about, "which children are you going to make your debut?"
Kitagawa Ku saw Mary's various reactions in his eyes and remained silent. He thought for a moment, "Matsumoto-kun, Ishikawa-kun, Yamaguchi-kun, plus Nagano-kun, let them know early tomorrow morning." ”
"One more thing. ”
Kitagawa Marie's face sank, "Tomorrow's press conference, no one from Wenchun is allowed to come!"
Since the big prize incident, he has bitten Janis three times in a row, and this feud is too deep to be repaired.
......
In order to avoid complications, the venue of the press conference was set in a large room that was set up overnight in the Genesys office.
At half past three in the afternoon, Masahiko Kondo, dressed in a black suit and dejected, sat in the small room next to the press conference and waited. The face that was injured by Mary Kitagawa was covered with a thick foundation, and it was two different colors from the neck, and it looked like a geisha.
Bai Bo Sejie was inseparable from him, staring at him and asking him to memorize everything he had to say in advance.
In this room, Kondo Masahiko was disgraced, just waiting to be put on the execution table. In another room next door, four JRs, who were suddenly notified that they were going to make their debut today, were fidgeting at the moment.
The Heike faction is a group of Genesys trainees who are divided into two teams, one team to dance for Hikari Genji, and the other team to participate in magazine photo shoots and interviews.
The two teams combined for the Heike faction are a huge combination of fifteen members – last year it was sixteen. There is a boy named Takashi Noguchi who just terminated his contract with the office not long ago.
Jiro Matsumoto, Toru Ishikawa, Tatsuya Yamaguchi, Hiroshi Nagano.
Early in the morning, the four teenagers suddenly received a notice and were called to the office, and the overall manager who had always been in charge of JR, Kitagawa Kuo, and Fujishima Keiko appeared together to inform them that the four of them were about to make their official debut.
Without waiting for a reaction, the four of them began to prepare for the debut press conference under the arrangement of the staff, and in the afternoon, they changed into the costumes they only wore on the stage, and sat here waiting for the press conference to begin.
When you are an idol, there is a world of difference between your debut and your debut. Suddenly, a pie fell from the sky, and the four teenagers were a little overwhelmed.
Nervous, excited, confused. In addition, there is also a little reluctance to separate from the other teammates in the previous "Heijia faction" group.
This kind of reluctance was the purest before its debut.
......
When the time came, the staff went to knock on the door of the boys of the Heijia faction. The four teenagers were led by Keiko Fujishima and walked into the press conference hall amid the baptism of shutter sound and flashing lights.
At the beginning of the press conference, Keiko Fujishima was the first to greet the media.
"Thank you for coming, I'm Keiko Fujishima, the manager of Genesys. She introduced herself to the reporters present, "Since last year, I have officially joined the firm. ”
Then, she introduced the four teenagers sitting next to her, "This is the new group 'Heike faction' that has decided to make its debut, so I hope you will take care of it." ”
Four teenagers followed her. After that, the captain of the Heike faction, Matsumoto Jiro, took the lead, and the four of them took turns to introduce themselves.
The reporters present were a little confused.
Early this morning, the trailer of "Weekly Bunharu" had been hung in the car of the tram and placed in the most conspicuous place in the bookstore, and at this moment, the whole of Tokyo knew about the good things that Kondo Masahiko had done in Xiangjiang.
On the day the trailer came out, Jennis announced that he was going to develop a new group, not for this matter, but to announce that there would be a new combination?
"Jingzisan!"
When everyone was speculating, a reporter took the lead in raising his hand, "Can you please talk about the ...... about the Wenchun preview?"
It's coming, it's coming!
One person started the way, and the rest of the reporters gathered around like sharks smelling blood. However, the staff present did not say anything to stop it and acquiesced to the development of the situation.
"Yes. ”
Keiko Fujishima smiled decently, but in front of the reporter, she showed a little shyness that she was not good at dealing with interviews, "I've already heard about related things." Today's press conference is one of the first and second to introduce the new combinations. ”
At this point, she paused, but the door to the room creaked open. Masahiko Kondo and Jie Shiranase walked in one after the other.
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
......
Sitting in front of the TV and watching the live broadcast, you can also feel how intense the shutter sound and the flash that pierces people's eyes are really intense.
"The drama is coming. ”
The strong man standing in front of the TV muttered, but he didn't speak Japanese.
This is the second floor of a mahjong shop in Shinjuku, in a small space, at this moment, there are three or five young men standing or sitting.
They are all members of a gang of Chinese active in Shinjuku, and these people are all stowaways, and they are ruthless, and even the extreme way of the book is afraid of them.
A few days ago, this gang received a commission from a certain big man from Xiangjiang, asking them to help collect debts from this guy named Kondo Masahiko.
On the TV, Masahiko Kondo, dressed in a black suit, sat down at the speaking table. Compared with Fujishima Keiko who was full of spring breeze, Kondo Masahiko on the other side looked like he was dying in ashes, and before he could speak, he broke out in a cold sweat.
He stumbled and his voice was low, "Hello everyone, I'm Mahiko Kondo. I've caused you a lot of trouble because of the recent events......"
It's been a long time since Masahiko Kondo appeared in front of the media, and this idol who has long lost its value in the entertainment world is about to turn into a torch to be lit during the media carnival at this moment, in the midst of the spying of reporters.
"There are some rumors about me and Kondo-san in the world. ”
Keiko Fujishima said eloquently, "As a person behind the scenes, I abide by the rules of not coming to the stage, so I haven't been interviewed, I thought that the false rumors would subside automatically, but I didn't expect it to cause trouble to you......"
She added fuel and vinegar to what Kitagawa had taught her.
She hated Kondo Masahiko very much, and it was impossible to leave a trace of affection, and after showing that she was too lazy to pay attention to the rumors, between her words, she secretly accused Kondo Masahiko of swaggering and deceiving through fake news.
In addition, Keiko Fujishima repeatedly emphasized through the Heike faction that she was an old-fashioned black-clad person who did not appear in front of the stage, and if she was not going to attend the Heijia faction's press conference today, she would not have shown up.
The reporters sitting below may not have believed her words a little.
But when the words of this cut came out, it sent a signal: there is no need to show mercy to Kondo.
With permission, Kondo Masahiko immediately turned into a piece of meat thrown into the wolf-dog pile, and the paparazzi pounced on him, killing him one after another with spicy and merciless questions, which was bound to gnaw him completely.
"Matchy, what should you do about cheating on the feelings of the female singer of Xiangjiang and owing her 150 million yen?"
......
"Matchy, are you hyping up the scandal with Jing Zisan, are you going to take this opportunity to seek a comeback?"
......
Kondo Masahiko was asked in a cold sweat, he didn't dare to answer, and he didn't dare to lie, and he knew in his heart that if he didn't take the matter over, Marisan might kill him after the press conference, so he had to bite the bullet and go down.
Dizzy and swollen, cold sweat ran down his forehead, and he couldn't help but wipe it with a handkerchief.
As a result, I forgot that I had applied a thick foundation, and when I wiped it, all the powder on my face was spent, revealing traces of being injured, and I looked like no one was a ghost.
There was a burst of laughter from the reporters in the audience.
A wrecked car is parked there, and what awaits it is the fate of being emptied and destroyed. Next, the crowd became more and more ruthless, and around all kinds of spicy questions, they began the execution of Kondo Masahiko and the carnival of the media.
This image was faithfully recorded and sent to the eyes of the public watching TV at this moment-
Including the eyes of these gang members who are watching the show.
At the end of the press conference, Kondo apologized on the spot, announced his retirement from the firm, and permanently withdrew from the entertainment industry.
The TV turned off, and a gang youth went to talk to a middle-aged man sitting at the mahjong table, playing mahjong tiles unhurriedly: "Boss, as you guessed, this kid has quit the office." ”
"What does it matter to us whether we quit or not?" another young man did not understand.
The middle-aged man, known as the "boss," looked at the young man and said, "Don't you understand? ”
"After he quit the firm, and before he made new connections, this guy was isolated during this time. ”
A hint of greed flashed in the middle-aged man's shrewd eyes, "The big guy over there in Xiangjiang has helped investigate, this guy has made a lot of money by taking advantage of the current east wind, but he has never actually done anything except eating, drinking, having fun and buying racing cars." ”
Kondo Masahiko devoted himself to entering the Fujishima family, thinking that the Fujishima family would become his backer and dependence, but all the abacus failed.
In other words, this former well-known idol with a huge amount of money is now like a child walking in the downtown area with gold in his arms.
"However, it will be a few days late. Now, it's time for him to get noticed. ”
......
Finally, the torture-like press conference ended, and Kondo Masahiko signed the termination form and left the office as if he had escaped.
Last night, Kitagawa Marie was so angry that she went to the hospital early this morning. Otherwise, I'm afraid I will be beaten up by her.
Kondo Masahiko breathed a sigh of relief while secretly scolding in his heart, it is best for that old woman to be angry to death!
In the parking lot, there were media waiting to see the excitement in the parking lot, he had no agent, and he was afraid of recurrence, so he had to push the reporter himself and get into the car.
The barbaric attitude offended the reporters again.
But he doesn't care at all, he has withdrawn from the entertainment world anyway, and he doesn't need to be polite to those paparazzi anymore.
It's okay to leave, and there's no point in staying anyway...... He thought that he could still rely on investment to be able to eat and drink, and his heart was happy again.
He huffed back home, but as soon as he arrived at the parking lot, he was surrounded by several strong men who did not look good at stubble, and dragged him to the back of the stairs, where a sack was put on his head, which was a punch and kick.
Who is it? It must be Keiko's ugly girl!
Kondo tried to hold his head, curled up in a ball, and endured the painful beatings from the strong men, begging for mercy while scolding in his heart. Scolding and scolding, unconscious.
......
As soon as he retired, he was beaten into a big pig's head, Kondo Masahiko was so angry that he couldn't immediately take the money to buy Jidao and treat others in his own way.
Within two days of staying in the hospital, the Asahi Shimbun published a full-page article titled "Xiangjiang singer Ame asks Kondo Masahiko for 150 million yen in arrears and apologizes for deceiving her feelings" was officially released, causing an uproar.
Within half a day, the news that Kondo Masahiko was injured and was admitted to this hospital spread throughout the inpatient department.
The wall fell and everyone pushed it.
Kondo Masahiko was discharged from the hospital in a hurry, despite the fact that his body had not yet recovered. On the way back, the hired driver suddenly stopped at the entrance of an alley, and without waiting for Kondo Masahiko to react, three strong men came up from front to back, left and right.
He remembered the horror of being beaten by fat, and he intimidated and begged for mercy at the same time.
Instead, he spoke softly and told him in not so fluent Japanese that they had been asked to talk about the money he owed to Miss Ame.
"I'll pay it back...... Will definitely pay it back!"
Kondo Masahiko was so anxious that he just wanted to get rid of these troubles and cut off these messy threads, "150 million yen, is it......?"
"Not true. ”
The gang member at the head corrected him with a smile and politely, "150 million yen is Miss Ame's arrears, and in addition, there is a hardship fee to be paid to us. ”
"It's ......," he paused.
The most vicious of the few people reported the number, "The sum of the two things is 150 million yen." ”
How can it be?!
One billion and fifty million yen, it is impossible to sell him!
Let alone......
"This is blackmail! I want to repay ......"
Before the word police could be spoken, Kondo Masahiko let out a miserable scream first. A small knife that shimmered silver, stuck in his thigh.
......
The car drove forward, to an unknown place.
