Half an hour before the opening, Shen Chong, under the leadership of Qiu Siyu, walked into his private room, and there were already four people sitting in the box, namely Shu Ming, the former editor-in-chief of "First Film Review" and the current head of the Oriental Charm Japan Branch, Toho Tanaka Tomoyuki, the owner of Yamaguchi Momoe's brokerage company, and Kurata Horuaki, the most successful kung fu star in Japan in Hong Kong. "I'm sorry, I'm late." Shen Chong apologized with a smile, and after greeting the four of them, he sat cross-legged on the main seat facing the stage, and teased to Waifu Hori, who was sitting on his right: "President, how are you feeling tonight?" Isn't it sad and sad? ”

After listening to Shu Ming's translation, he bowed slightly, pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "Shen Jun is right, I really regret that Miss Yamaguchi's retirement at the peak of her acting career is a big loss to the Japanese entertainment industry. ”

It's your loss, right?

Because of the difficulties at the beginning, Shen Chong was very unhappy with Waifu Hori, but when doing business, he couldn't be emotional, so he slandered in his heart, but said: "Miss Yamaguchi retired for love, and she will surely become a legend in the Japanese entertainment industry, and Hori Production Co., Ltd. will also be praised for her human touch, and more artists will definitely join President Hori's company in the future." ”

"Thank you Shen Jun for your kind words, please take care of the business of the society in the future." "We have had a great time working together this time, and I think there will be more opportunities in the future."

Of course, there are more opportunities......

Shen Chong was thinking about it in his heart, planning to find an opportunity to swallow up Waifu's brokerage company.

In his previous life, Shen Chong once watched a movie called "My Girlfriend is a Robot", the movie was very ordinary, but the heroine Haruka Ayase's temperament was very pleasing, and later searched for information on the Internet, and remembered her agency - Hori Production Co., Ltd., one of the four major brokerage companies in Japan, in addition to Haruka Ayase, there are also popular artists such as Kyoko Fukada, Satoshi Tsumiki, etc.

And Yamaguchi Baihui's brokerage company is also this company, at the beginning of the year, Zeng Lizhen contacted Yamaguchi Baihui, and was repeatedly troubled, so he collected a lot of information about Wai Weifu and studied his preferences, and Shen Chong also took a look at it when he helped her solve the problem.

Hori Waifu was originally the leader of a rock band, and in 19uu founded Hori Production Co., Ltd., at the beginning of its establishment, the strength was very weak, and he once laughed at himself as "an inch and a half long bug", and it was until 19 years, he held a singing competition called "Star Birth" held by the TV station, and discovered two junior high school girls who were only 14 years old, one called Yamaguchi Momoe, and the other called Mori Masako, these two little girls quickly became popular, so that Hori Production Co., Ltd. rose sharply, and since then it has gained a firm foothold in the Japanese entertainment industry, Become a top brokerage firm.

Hori Production Co., Ltd. has four characteristics, one is good at discovering newcomers from talent shows, one is never involved with the underworld, one is that even if the artist is popular, the salary is not high, and the other is that it never abandons the outdated artist, even if it is not popular, it has always been supported.

It's a mean but impersonal agency, and Whiff is a sympathetic tyrant.

Since this company still exists in the 21st century and is doing well, it is better to take advantage of Yamaguchi Momoe's retirement and the company's weakness to control it and use it as a bridgehead to tap Japanese acting talents.

Shen Chong chatted with Waifu Hori, and then went to chat with Yuyuki Tanaka, the two often communicated on the phone when filming "Shadow Samurai", although they had only met twice, they were not strangers.

In fact, he went to Toho in the afternoon, and he had already talked with Tomoyuki Tanaka, but it was for official business, and he was invited to watch Yamaguchi Momoe's concert in the evening, mainly to pull a personal relationship, and then ask him to help persuade Akira Kurosawa to go to Hong Kong to film, Tomoyuki Tanaka has worked in Toho Co., Ltd. for more than 50 years, and his status in the Japanese film industry is similar to Run Run Shaw's status in the Hong Kong film industry. "Shen Jun first invested in Kurosawa-kun's "Shadow Samurai", and then asked Miss Yamaguchi to star in "Die Hard", I wonder if I will continue to cooperate with our Japanese entertainment industry in the future?" "Absolutely." Shen Chong glanced at Kurata Yasuaki, who was sitting on the outside, bowing his head and drinking tea, and said: "Die Hard" is a story that takes place in Hong Kong, and I plan to make another story that takes place in Tokyo after a while. Mr. Kurata, are you interested in working together? “

At the end of the 70s, the image of a tough guy was popular in the Japanese entertainment industry, Ken Takakura, Tomokazu Miura and others, their facial lines were very stiff, and Kurata Yasuaki was no exception, he had no expression, just raised his eyebrows, and then supported his legs with his hands, and bowed down and said in Cantonese: "I am honored to be able to film for Mr. Shen." ”

"Okay, I'll contact you in the near future to agree on a schedule and contract."

The power of example is endless, the Chinese are the best at tree typical, and Kurata Hoaki is a typical example of Shen Chong's tree.

As early as 1970, Kurata Baozhao went to Taiwan for development, and in 19 years went to Hong Kong to join Golden Harvest, and under the mediation of Wu Siyuan, he cooperated with Liang Xiaolong, Huang Yuanshen and others to make a series of kung fu movies, which were very popular in Southeast Asia, becoming the first Japanese action actor to become popular in Hong Kong.

Kurata Yasuaki's most well-known movie image is in the classic kung fu movie "Jingwu Hero" as Fumio Funakoshi, the head coach of the Black Dragon Society, who was nearly fifty years old at the time, and his skills were still vigorous and impressive

But Shen Chong wants to make him a model, not because of the good feelings generated by the memory of his previous life, but because when he arrived in Taiwan, he worked hard to learn Chinese, and when he arrived in Hong Kong, he worked hard to learn Cantonese, and this kind of Japanese actor who actively integrates into Chinese society is no better

Therefore, Shen Chong specially invited Kurata Yasuaki to come over this time and watch the concert with the senior management of Toho and Hori Productions, in order to raise his value, let his career and income grow significantly, and thus improve the attractiveness of Hong Kong to Japanese actors.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the concert officially began, Yamaguchi Baihui wore a long skirt and walked on the stage, he could become a superstar of the times, there was no wasted fame, Shen Chong couldn't understand Japanese, but Yamaguchi Baihui's singing voice could also move him, so after the performance started, basically no one spoke in the box, and even Tanaka Tomoyuki, who was nearly 70 years old, looked serious.

Before the curtain call, Momoe Yamaguchi made the gesture that would still be talked about decades later - she held the microphone high, then bent down and slowly lowered it to the floor.

And at the same time as she did this action, there was a muffled sound in the eight corners of the martial arts hall, and then at the concert site, countless colorful petals floated down, as if the sky was raining.

"This, this, this?" "President Hori, this is my gift to Miss Yamaguchi." Shen Chong looked up at the sky, let the petals slide off his face, and said: "Miss Yamaguchi is like a cherry blossom, brilliant and short-lived, but now the cherry blossom season has passed, so I used eight air cannons to shoot 100,000 roses to simulate the scene of cherry blossoms falling." ”

Such a spectacular and beautiful scene will be unforgettable for the audience in front of the TV, and it will definitely make the headlines of the newspaper tomorrow, and at that time, "Die Hard" will be able to be advertised justifiably.
