"That... That's the case, Sakamoto-san, our editor-in-chief thinks, there's one thing that should tell you... ”

On the phone, the deputy editor-in-chief of Wenchun, who was hesitant, made Sakamoto Kiyoshi feel a little strange.

"Huh, have something to tell me?"

"That's the case, are you convenient now, do you have time to come to the magazine?" the other party's tone was very polite.

Also, although Kiyoshi Sakamoto, a "genius young writer", has not submitted to the Literary Spring and Autumn for more than a year, he is still a member of the Literary and Artistic Association after all, but he is still covered by the chairman of the Literary and Artistic Association, Kuroi Chiji, and Wenchun is very polite when he treats him.

"Oh, can't you talk about it on the phone?"

"Uh... The stakes are very high, and the editor-in-chief hopes that you can come to the magazine in person... ”

When he said this, Sakamoto Kiyoshi felt even more strange.

Since he joined the Literary and Artistic Association, Wen Chun has always maintained the attitude that he and himself are well water and do not violate river water, and there is no contact between the two, why is it that suddenly, Wen Chun has to tell himself something?

And it's still something big that can't be said on the phone?

This aroused Sakamoto Kiyoshi's curiosity, so he said to the deputy editor-in-chief of Wen Chun on the other end of the phone, "Okay, I'll wait a minute." ”

"Thank you very much for your understanding and a nice trip. ”

Drip.

After hanging up the phone, Sakamoto Kiyoshi did not get up and set off as soon as possible, but sat on the chair and thought about what was going on with Wenchun's sudden phone call.

After pondering for a moment, he picked up his phone again and called Uncle Ishida.

"Uncle Moxi?"

"Well, what's wrong?"

"Wen Chun called me and said that there was an important matter, and he wanted to tell me, let me go to the magazine office, and you can come and pick me up. ”

"Huh, is there such a thing? Did he say what it was?" Uncle Ishida was also very surprised.

"I just don't know, that's why I want to go. Come by car, I'll be waiting for you at home. ”

"Okay, wait for me for fifteen minutes, no! ten minutes!" As soon as the words fell, Uncle Ishida hung up the phone directly.

And Sakamoto Kiyoshi, who still wanted him to take his time, also looked at his phone speechlessly, and muttered, "Don't be in such a hurry... In fact. ”

。。。

Saying that ten minutes is ten minutes, Uncle Ishida's driving skills are not like him, he likes to joke.

Ten minutes later, when Kiyoshi Sakamoto saw Uncle Ishida standing at the door of his house, he couldn't help but joke, "Sure enough, it's an old driver, it's really fast!"

"Of course, why don't you be your agent?!"

While talking and laughing, Sakamoto Kiyoshi got into the car of the old driver Ishida and drove to the Literary Spring and Autumn Publishing House. . .

。。。

Tokyo, Chiyoda-ku, Kioi-cho 3-23.

This is one of the least favorite places in this entertainment industry.

It is the headquarters of the Literary Spring and Autumn Publishing House, and it is also the location of the magazine office of the famous gossip magazine "Weekly Wenchun".

Kiyoshi Sakamoto is also here for the first time, and in order not to be discovered by others, he still does a good job of disguise.

Pulling the cap on their heads, Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Uncle Ishida walked into the editor-in-chief office of "Weekly Bunchun" under the leadership of Akira Kato, who had been waiting for a long time.

"Editor-in-chief, Sakamoto-kun is here!"

Under the introduction of Kato Akira, Sakamoto Kiyoshi also saw the editor-in-chief of "Weekly Bunharu" again, Shintani Studies.

"Excuse me!"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto first took off his mask and hat and bowed slightly.

"Oh, Sakamoto-kun, it's been a long time, so let's sit down first. Shintani's expression was as good as the last time at the Akutagawa Prize, with a smile on his face.

"Kato, three cups of coffee. However, this is only for Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who still shows the majesty of the editor-in-chief when facing his own subordinates.

"Yes. After Kato Guangming received the order, he walked out of the editor-in-chief's office.

In the room, only Kiyoshi Sakamoto, Uncle Ishida, and the editor-in-chief of "Weekly Bunharu", Shintani Gaku.

"Oh, Sakamoto-kun, how long have we not seen each other?" Shintani learned that behind Sakamoto Kiyoshi, there was Chiji Kuroi, a big man in the literary world, so in terms of tone, it was so kind that people couldn't find fault with it.

"Uh... So it's been more than a year.,The last time we met.,It should have been at the Akutagawa Prize... Although I really wanted to know what Shintani was calling him for, Sakamoto Kiyoshi was not in such a hurry, but slowly talked to Shintani Gaku.

"By the way, I remember, I introduced you to Chairman Kuroi. Shintani first secretly nodded his credit, and then seemed to ask inadvertently, "Sakamoto-kun, have you visited the chairman of the board of directors recently?"

"Oh, the chairman often asks me to come over to play, but, you know me, I'm too busy at work... "Sakamoto Kiyoshi also knows what he means.,To put it bluntly.,It's to let him remember to be in front of Kuroi a thousand times.,Help him say a few good words or something.。。。

"However, the chairman also mentions Shintani-san from time to time, saying that you are doing a good job... ”

So, he also put on a posture that he was very familiar with Kuroi Chiji, and often communicated, and he lied without blinking, coping with Shintani Learning.

Sure enough, for Sakamoto Kiyoshi's words, Shintani was also quite pleased.

"That's really thanks to the chairman of the board of directors.,Please Sakamoto-kun tell the chairman.,I'll continue to work hard.。。。 ”

"Okay. ”

。。。

In the eyes of Uncle Ishida, who was sitting on the side, Kiyoshi Sakamoto at this time did not look like an artist, but like a young president.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto's progress in behavior is simply enormous.

He watched Kiyoshi Sakamoto grow from a big boy with an immature face to a big man who can now talk and laugh with the editor-in-chief of "Weekly Wenchun".

This made him sigh in his heart, "Sure enough, this may be the most talented artist I have ever brought in my life... ”

However, he is also very pleased with the growth of Kiyoshi Sakamoto...

After all, the bigger Kiyoshi Sakamoto grows, the more it shows that his support and cultivation all the time have not been in vain.

Doesn't that just show his ability?

Therefore, the growth of Kiyoshi Sakamoto also makes him very proud and proud.

In this way, under the rather surprised gaze of Uncle Ishida, Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Shintani talked and laughed.

Half an hour later, Shintani Gakucai said the words that made Sakamoto Kiyoshi sit up straight...

"By the way, that, Sakamoto-kun, in fact, I asked someone to inform you today, because I want to tell you something. ”

"Oh, what is it?" asked Kiyoshi Sakamoto curiously.

"Actually, yesterday, our magazine received a proposal from an industry insider. ”

"Insiders?proposal?"

"That's right, it's not convenient for me to say the name, but what I can tell you is that the proposal put forward by this industry insider is to ask our magazine to hype up the scandal about Sakamoto-kun and Yui Aragaki at all costs in the next issue of the magazine!" Shintani's words surprised Sakamoto Kiyoshi.

"My scandal with Aragaki Yui ?!!"

From Shintani's words, Kiyoshi Sakamoto easily came to a conclusion, that is, someone wants to mess with him!

However, the key is, who is this person, or, behind this person, which company ...

This kind of behavior reminds Sakamoto Kiyoshi of about three months ago, when the SUN band released its second album, the sudden killing...

"Is this a means... The same force did it last time?"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto instantly listed the firms or brokerage companies in the entertainment industry that he was unhappy with.

The first to emerge was Janiss.

However, he immediately dismissed the possibility.

"It can't be Denis!"

"The big guy Kitagawa just finished telling me, Sony and Jennis are in the honeymoon period, and in the next few years, it is unlikely that they will target each other, and it is not necessary to target me now, after all, the old man Kitagawa has long known that the means of suppression or targeting are useless to me... ”

"So, Janis can rule out ... ”

"From the perspective of actor resources, Ran, or other HORIPRO, Stardust, Yanyin studios, I basically have no conflicts with their artists, or conflicts of interest, let alone rob their artist roles, and they don't need to target me continuously... ”

"Therefore, these large firms can also be excluded. ”

"If it's not a conflict of interest on the actor's side, it's only the record side... ”

"Ai Hui, I am very familiar with Koda Laiwei and Ayumi Hamasaki, even in the past two years, under my leadership, Sony's record sales continue to approach Ai Hui, but it is not aimed at me... ”

"After all, their main focus is still singers, and they don't overlap with my music audience... ”

When Kiyoshi Sakamoto thought of this, he suddenly thought of a very important thing.

That is, a report he had seen before.

"Global Turnover, Kiyoshi Sakamoto's Terrible Influence?"

The title is very concerned about Kiyoshi Sakamoto, and the content above is probably as follows: "Because I looked away, I let go of the future king of the music world, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, and in recent years, with the help of Kiyoshi Sakamoto's strong performance, which led to Sony surpassing the sales of Universal Records, Universal Records, which couldn't bear it, finally removed the former president Ichiro Yamazaki at the board meeting in June this year, and the new president was replaced by director Kenji Kitano." ”

"The new president, Northo-san, declared at the board of directors that he will inevitably lead the world to a brilliant future... ”

And why did Kiyoshi Sakamoto remember this report?

That's because he feels that this incident is related to a story between himself and the world, so he will take this matter to heart...

However, it now seems that this is very likely, and it is the answer to his question.

The person who has been making trouble behind the scenes is most likely the new president of Universal, Kenji Kitano!

"Is it really Universal?"
