Chapter 739: Small Theater

Masayoshi Kishimoto had eaten dinner, paid for it, and walked behind the three people at the next table to the entrance of an underground idol show.

The reason why he chose them was that during dinner, he heard their conversation about going to see his favorite idol's show tonight.

Since it fits his purpose, then he just follows. Masayoshi Kishimoto spent 2,000 yen to buy a ticket to get inside.

Although the show has not officially started yet, some people have already begun to gather. They got together in twos and threes and chatted about common topics.

This small theater is located on the basement floor, the venue is not large, the stage is simple, the whole decoration, lighting or something, is very ordinary, and it cannot be compared with the concert of orthodox idols.

The ventilation effect does not give Kishimoto a very good feeling, a little tightness in the chest, and the air is filled with the sweetness and fragrance of air fresheners.

Masayoshi Kishimoto stood in the last inconspicuous position, and saw not only people in standard otaku attire, but also office workers in suits and leather shoes.

They also have a large age range, the small ones are probably only in their teens and less than twenty years old, and the older ones are in their fifties and sixties.

A strange man in a suit and leather shoes suddenly took the initiative to stand next to Kishimoto Masayoshi and said bluntly: "It seems that this is the first time you have come like this!"

Masayoshi Kishimoto did not make a denial: "Yes. ”

"We're happiest that they've been able to add new fans. Every time they add someone, it means that they have more popularity. Someone like you who knows it's a first-time visitor.

There were no glow sticks on his hands, no clothes on them, and no scarves around his necks. The strange man looked sideways at him, unhurried or slow.

Masayoshi Kishimoto also looked at him sideways, and said with a slight smile: "You should be an office worker, right!

"Part of the reason is that it's like you say. The main thing is that I like it. They work hard, but they just lack the luck and talent.

Not everyone can stand on stage and perform like an orthodox idol, but I believe that many people have dreams of becoming an idol.

This is an opportunity and a stage for those who have dreams in their hearts. Even if it is not accepted by mainstream society, it does not diminish enthusiasm in the slightest.

Having the heart to pursue your dreams and that passion is the most important thing. Are you right?" said the strange man.

"Not bad. I just don't know what their income is like?" Kishimoto blurted out.

"After their show, not only can you buy their merch, but you can also take a picture with one of them.

The latter requires the purchase of a bonus ticket, which costs 1,000 yen each. In addition to taking a photo with your favorite idol, you can also chat a few words.

Actually, their income is really not high, and they mainly rely on selling group photo rolls for a commission. That's all good. Some firms don't even give such commissions.

As far as I know, their income is about 30,000 yen per month, and the best is only 50,000 yen per month. The strange man introduced.

"It's hard to survive in Tokyo with such a little money, how did they survive? And besides, if the office doesn't even give them a commission, there will be someone to do?" Kishimoto said unconsciously with the other party.

"Your question is good. Some offices still provide accommodation, but it is a group of people sleeping in one room. If you don't have an office that provides accommodation, you'll have to find your own accommodation.

In order to survive in Tokyo, they have other part-time jobs on weekdays in addition to performing here. Otherwise, as you say, it will be difficult to live.

Standing on this stage, they are idols. They get off this stage, that is, they are exactly the same as us ordinary people, they all have to run for life, there is no difference.

The belief that supports them to embark on this path is to realize their dreams and stand on this stage to attract attention.

Even if there is only one fan, it will make him full of energy and vitality. Therefore, even if the firm does not give money, it cannot stop many people from pursuing their dreams with such enthusiasm.

Of course, it is precisely because there are a steady stream of people who want to enter this industry that the firm dares to do so. The strange man said seriously.

Kishimoto got it. Judging from the detailed introduction of the other party, he is definitely a place that often comes here, and he is also a true fan of a certain idol.

I don't have to deal with him, why didn't anyone sue the office? This really has nothing to do with the underworld or anything. The reason is simple.

The firm took advantage of the legal convenience and signed a management contract with its own artists, rather than a general labor contract. The management contract is not responsible for the minimum hourly wage, minimum income, and pension insurance.

This means that those who sign such a contract can only get a commission, and even no commission. There are a large number of people in various underground idol groups.

Among them, those who can rely on performances to make ends meet, they are all the best among them. The vast majority of people either rely on family support or part-time jobs to earn money to make ends meet.

People who can truly shine are simply rare. In addition, the cultural values of Japan from ancient times to the present day must be ...... to society and the country Contributing and meaningful.

Otherwise, the value of survival will be lost. This is the reason why the Japanese have always worshipped the strong and have always been dismissive of the weak.

Masayoshi Kishimoto is the most felt. As the president of the Hard Gold Group, he really has the feeling of being a high and king, after all, everyone will bow respectfully to themselves.

The Japanese will not have the Chinese saying that we feed the capitalists, but only the capitalists feed them.

The roots still lie in Japanese culture, which can be traced back to the Meiji Restoration, when large landowners became big capitalists over and over again, which is now a foundation.

Those people were big landlords? Mainly not the former daimyos. The Meiji Restoration removed some of the political privileges of the daimyo and gave some redemption of economic privileges.

As for the purpose, he still wanted to pull the centrist daimyo clan to his side. Otherwise, at the time of the Meiji Restoration, why did some daimyo clans support it and some daimyo clans oppose it?

Like Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, the content does not identify all black slaves in the United States as free. Those states that are willing to follow him are still black slaves.

What if the black slaves were emancipated? There were many black slaves who had nowhere to go and had to find a place to work, and often in the end they did not continue to follow the slave owners who did not oppose Lincoln, who were not deprived and lost their estates.

Even the United States still exists today. The only difference is that they are no longer black slaves, they have become so-called free people. The slave owner became a farmer.
