Masayoshi Kishimoto and the others drove away from the golf course and headed straight to the Kiroroku Haute Cuisine Pavilion in Ueno, Taito Ward.

The hostess not only reserved the best luxury private room in advance, but also personally conducted a reception. On the one hand, he is a regular customer of the old relationship, and on the other hand, he has some small investments in hard capital.

She is a clear-eyed person, and when she sees a geisha, she arrives early to greet her, which means that President Kishimoto has invited guests to be extraordinary, and she is definitely the kind of person who is in a high position.

In Japan, geisha are not selling their bodies. If you want to find a woman who sells her body, one is to go directly to the custom store, and the other is to go to the Wuxian Ann Inner House.

Otherwise, it is to use some social software on the Internet or the contact method on the small card. For men, whether they are looking for a girl or a call girl, to put it bluntly, it is prostitution.

Geisha in Japan not only have a high income, but also have a high social status. According to the customary name of the Chinese, they belong to the performance artists. The reason for this situation is that it is high-end.

Geisha in the traditional sense were not considered indecent in the past. On the contrary, many families are proud that their daughters can enter the art world.

In one of Tanizaki Junichiro's masterpieces, "The Manuscript of the Spring Qin", someone sent his own daughter to the heroine to learn the piano, in order to make his daughter a geisha in the future.

This not only shows that the family has a high level of education, but also has to have enough funds to support the daughter's education. Although this concept is not much now, geisha are still very popular in people's minds.

In fact, it is not easy to become a geisha. Learning art, generally starting from the age of 10, has to complete the course from culture, etiquette, language, decoration, poetry and calligraphy, piano to bowing, pouring wine and other courses in 5 years, which is very difficult.

From the age of 16, you can go to the sea, first as a "dancer", and then turn into a geisha, and you can work until you are 0 years old. No matter how old you are, you can continue to work, but if you want to be demoted, you can only serve as a foil for young and famous geisha.

As for the way out of old age, most of them are not very optimistic. The ideal is to marry a rich man and live a stable life, but this is very rare.

It is also very good for some people to use their skills to set up an art school or art class. If you have the opportunity to enter the company as an image lady, although it is just a "vase", you can still show your former style. Of course, there are also many people who become domestic workers, and even fall into Qinglou, which is very unfortunate.

The price of being able to hire a geisha to attend is not cheap. The way they bill is from the moment they leave the house. The round-trip taxi fare is reimbursed separately.

Geisha's makeup is strict, and at first glance it looks as pale as a dead person. However, in the traditional cognition and aesthetics of the Japanese, the makeup of this porcelain doll is beautiful and cute.

Looking at it with modern aesthetics, it may be a little different. In fact, tracing back to the roots, didn't the women of the Tang Dynasty in China also like similar makeup? The only difference between the two is that one wears a kimono and the other wears a Tang costume.

When Masayoshi Kishimoto and the others arrived at the place, they first parked their cars, and then the proprietress personally led them into the private room. After they sat down cross-legged one after another, the proprietress ordered someone to hurry up and serve the food.

The geisha enter the private room and begin their performance. Kishimoto Masayoshi could tell from the expressions of Ryuichi Kitano and President Pachinko that they really liked this kind of conciliation, but they were not pretending to be elegant.

If you think about it a little more carefully, it's easy to figure it out. The two of them experienced the golden 30 years of the Japanese economy, especially in the heyday of the 80s of the 20th century, and the Japanese were not only satisfied with the pastime of traveling abroad, but also had a social atmosphere of extravagance and wealth from top to bottom.

Eat it with expensive gold leaf, that's all a witch. The big witch is that the big company directly hires a geisha to act as a façade, so that it is easy to tackle the problem.

Rich people invite people to dinner, and it doesn't matter if they have three Michelin stars. Only if you can spend a lot of money to invite a famous geisha to perform and accompany the dinner, that is high-end, atmospheric, and high-grade.

Ryuichi Kitano and President Pachinko were deeply influenced by that atmosphere. This is just like the first group of people in China who became rich.

In their minds, it doesn't matter how good or how long the history of the earl, Vacheron Constantin, Patek Philippe, etc., is. They only recognize Rolex.

The reason why there is such a peculiar phenomenon is that when they were young or young, the most expensive watch they saw in the most upscale department stores in big cities such as provincial capitals, magic capitals, and capitals was a Rolex for 800 yuan.

What is the concept of 800 yuan? At that time, the wages of ordinary workers in Chinese mainland were only more than 20 yuan, more than 10 yuan, or even a few yuan.

Therefore, the watch at that time represented one of the three turns and one ring in marriage. A man can wear a watch, but it is only a domestic watch, even if he wears a long shirt, he will deliberately expose the watch to the outside.

Not only that, but you don't have to have money to buy a watch. Before you can buy it, you also need to have a watch ticket. In Chinese mainland at that time, people who could afford to wear watches were all existences with status and status in society.

Young people like Kishimoto naturally don't like things like geisha. He watched the geisha's performance, and the biggest feeling was that it had a certain hypnotic effect.

I was embarrassed to yawn and even dozed off. He took advantage of people's inattention, and twisted his thigh himself to refresh himself.

In particular, geisha play the shamisen, which resembles the Chinese shamisen. He didn't feel good all over his body. Even if I like to be quiet, I also like the kind of petty bourgeois atmosphere of Western style, with a cup of coffee on the table, a book in hand, and a lazy chair to read.

"The most famous geisha is the Kyoto geisha. However, our geisha in Edo (the old name of Tokyo) also have their own characteristics. Ryuichi Kitano said with emotion.

"Kyoto geisha belong to the Kansai genre, while Edo geisha belong to the Kanto genre. The two are naturally different and have their own characteristics. President Pachinko said with interest.

"These are too boring for young people today. What they like at the moment is rock music. My grandson is making a fuss around the house all day, and it's not clean. He also started a band with other people at school. Kitano shook his head.

"These good things that have been handed down from our ancestors are indeed not popular with today's young people. When we old fellows are dead, our treasures will die with them. President Pachinko said worriedly.

Masayoshi Kishimoto listened to the tones of the two old Japanese guys, which were exactly the same as the tones of many old guys in China.

What kind of Peking Opera, what like this, what kind of so-called good things and so on, it really makes today's young people not energetic at all, and they don't feel how elegant.
