363 Growth & Change
Ever since Yui Aragaki joined Lespros, Urashima has been her agent. The growth of a girl has always been in her eyes.
From an ignorant newcomer in the entertainment industry, to now taking shape, Aragaki Yui's fame, acting skills, and experience are growing, and the treatment given by the firm is also rapidly improving.
In the past, she, as an agent, had to accompany Aragaki Yui to work in distant places, such as Kansai and Kyushu, and she could only take the Shinkansen by herself. And there is no special car, Aragaki Yui is shared with several junior artists in the office. Sometimes, when the vehicle is used frequently and cannot be deployed, you can only take a taxi to the place of work by yourself.
However, with the popularity of the "Dragon Sakura" TV series, President Honma personally made the decision a few days ago and spent more than 10 million yen to equip Aragaki Yui with a brand-new high-end Toyota commercial vehicle.
In addition, the funds that Urashima's agent received from the firm for activities have also risen, and he has a lot more money. Now, even if you go to a city like Nagoya, which is less than 300 kilometers from Tokyo, you can fly by plane, and even if you choose first class, President Honma has no complaints.
In addition to the improvement of material treatment, what makes Urashima more proud is the improvement of status.
In the past, as the manager of a small studio and a non-well-known actor, she had to make many phone calls to give Aragaki Yui a chance to be in a magazine, saying "please" hundreds of times.
And now, not to mention ordinary fashion magazines, even invitations to participate in popular variety shows on major TV stations are also flying like snowflakes.
Now not only does she have the right to choose a job, but everyone she meets when she goes out has to shout "Urashima-san" to her respectfully.
Urashima knows that the reason why she and Aragaki Yui have such a big change in their circumstances is inseparable from the man in front of them.
It is precisely because of starring in "Dragon Sakura" that Yui Aragaki can have today's popularity.
And being able to get the role of Kano Kasaka without passing the audition is also thanks to Qin Han.
"Gakki and Teacher Qin Han are childhood sweethearts. She also often mentions Teacher Qin Han in front of me. Looking at her appearance, the relationship between the two seems to be not simple. Although Gakki is still young now, if he makes his relationship public, it will have a great impact on his career, but if it is kept secret, there is no problem. Moreover, President Honma is also happy to see the relationship between the two come to fruition. With such a big boost, Gakki's future development in the entertainment industry is really worth looking forward to. ”
As Yui Aragaki's agent, Miss Urashima has not met Qin Han for a long time, but she has a lot of things on her mind.
"Of course I can't refuse President Honma's invitation, so I'll be there." Qin Han readily agreed to the other party's request.
Hearing Qin Han's words, Miss Urashima came back to her senses from the fantasy that Yui Aragaki had become the first female star of Toei who surpassed Kyoko Koizumi.
After informing her of the location of the banquet, she took her leave and left the lounge.
Soon after, Masami Nagasawa's agent, Tomomi Takeda, also came to visit Qin Han.
As the agent of Toho's little princess and a veteran who has been in the industry for many years, Tomomi Takeda's status, connections, and resources are not comparable to Urashima. So she didn't have the experience of a huge change in status and treatment after Masami Nagasawa became popular.
However, her attitude towards Qin Han is no worse than that of Pudao.
Not to mention the fact that when she went to Okinawa to shoot a photo album before, she was taken care of by Qin Han many times, even if she only looked at the identity of the other party, she didn't dare to slack off - a famous cartoonist, a famous game producer - and now she has to add the title of "famous screenwriter", and more importantly, the other party is a rich man who owns two companies and is now worth more than 10 billion.
Tomomi Takeda knows how powerful the power of capital is in the entertainment world, so her attitude towards Qin Han is also extraordinarily respectful.
After the two girls arrived at the magazine, Qin Han was interviewed with them again.
Speaking of the previous "Human Observation" program, Nanao Komatsu raised another "ill-intentioned" question.
"Teacher Qin Han, you once said that you hope to be able to make Aragaki-san or Nagasawa-san your wife. So, if you had to choose, which one would you choose? ”
After asking this question, Qin Han immediately felt two eyes that seemed to be substance coming from his side.
Bluntly refusing this question, Komatsu Nao doesn't care about it, but the two girls will definitely feel dissatisfied.
He thought for a moment and said with a smile: "If you ask me this kind of question, it's like asking a student with a deviation of only 50, whether he wants to go to Waseda or Keio, it's an overly happy trouble." But if you really want to follow the man's heart, such a cute girl, of course, both of them have to marry home. But I don't want to be arrested by the police until they're past their 20th birthday......"
first laughed at himself, then gagmed, and finally passed. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two girls next to him showing expressions of "although I'm not very satisfied, but let's leave it at that" for the time being.
After the interview, Qin Han went through a series of tedious steps such as changing clothes and makeup, and took a set of photos with the two girls before it was over.
In the evening, Ken Honma invited not only Qin Han, Masami Nagasawa and her agent Ms. Takeda, but also the three directors of "Dragon Sakura", producer Yasuji Tamagawa and others, who were also present.
Speaking of which, this should be regarded as a celebration banquet to celebrate the success of the "Dragon Sakura" TV series.
During the banquet, Qin Han got a good news from Tamagawa Yasuji.
"Teacher Qin Han, there is a video website in Huaxia called Love Strange, and it has bought the exclusive broadcast rights of "Dragon Sakura", 30 million yen per episode!"
At the exchange rate, it is about 2 million yuan.
Generally speaking, the overseas copyright fee of Japanese dramas or animations cannot be sold so expensive. The reason why "Dragon Sakura" can be sold at this price is because it is an exclusive copyright, and secondly, the quality of "Dragon Sakura" itself is there. This kind of TV series with big ratings is worth the price.
Although the copyright income of the TV series has nothing to do with Qin Han, this matter is also very beneficial to him.
Because Shueisha is running the Chinese version of the "Dragon Sakura" manga. In the future, after his comics land in China, he will have the fame of the previous TV series, and his sales will definitely increase.
Even if "Dragon Sakura" is far less well-known in China than in Dongying, such a large market with a population ten times that of Dongying is definitely expected to double the total sales of "Dragon Sakura" comics.
