Chapter 213: The old young master
After staying in California for a long time, Hideki Hanyu returned to Tokyo and was somewhat unaccustomed to it.
After all, the San Francisco area has a typical Mediterranean climate, with hot and dry summers.
Tokyo, on the other hand, has a temperate monsoon climate, with rainy, humid and muggy summers.
When he returned, he felt slimy.
Fortunately, it is already August, and it won't be long before the temperature cools down.
Get used to it a little more and get used to it.
After being busy in America for so long, Hideki Hanyu really didn't want to get to work right away.
So after returning, he simply hid in a luxury apartment in the central district.
On the rocking chair in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, Hideki Hanyu lies comfortably.
Blowing the cool air conditioner, flipping through some recent media reports.
Next to him, Kyoko Koizumi put the sliced watermelon into his mouth piece by piece.
This girl has become very popular since she changed her style and style, and she has lived a busy life as a popular idol, and her daily schedule is full.
However, after learning that Hideki Hanyu came back from America, he directly asked his agent for leave to accompany Hideki Hanyu.
Obviously, this girl knew that it was Hideki Hanyu who was more important to her than work.
Neon entertainment industry, what future can you have as an idol.
It's not a super combination like Genki Girl.
Take Seiko Matsuda, the most popular idol in SOLO, for example, her monthly income is not as much as the living expenses that Hideki Hanyu gives her.
And that's not even counting the usual expenses of buying and buying.
Hanyu Hideki's golden thighs, how could she let it go.
"The entertainment industry has been very lively lately."
Looking at some recent news about the entertainment industry, Hideki Hanyu sighed.
In 1983, Akina Nakamori officially launched her efforts and started the two-person hegemony mode with Seiko Matsuda.
The duo's singles have dominated the Billboard charts consecutively.
Outside of them, the new band of Genesys was not a success.
But relying on the two male idols SOLO, Toshihiko Tahara and Masahiko Kondo, they can be regarded as equal to the two female idols.
During this period, only three neon singers, Yakushi Maru Hiroko, Hosokawa Takashi and Anri, rose to the top of the public trust list ruled by the four.
At the end of the year, the singer Ouyang Feifei of Wanwan Province also rushed to the top of the public trust list.
That's why Kennekai agreed to work with Genesys to shoot the movie "Love: Departure" that made Masahiko Kondo and Akina Nakamori fall in love.
After all, in the original history, it was definitely a strong alliance.
And this is only the top existence, and the idols who debuted at the same time as them have also made efforts this year.
The newcomers who debuted in 83 were ruthlessly crushed by their predecessors, and none of them came out.
But in this plane, because of the appearance of Hanyu Hideki, everything was disrupted.
At the beginning of the year, the TV anime of "Saint Seiya" was released, and the band MAKE-UP took advantage of the popularity of the anime, and the single dominated for almost two months.
Immediately followed by the release of the new single of Genki Girl, she once again broke all kinds of records set by herself.
After the energetic girl, Akina Nakamori continued to take over, and then it was inseparable from Matsuda Seiko on the public trust list.
And what about Genesys, which should be evenly divided?
Kondo Masahiko's popularity plummeted because of his criticism of the incident, and naturally it was impossible to reach the same height as in his previous life.
And Toshihiko Tahara originally developed well, and his first single briefly appeared on the singles chart.
But the release of the second single coincided with the time when Genesis and Yunshang Arts blocked each other and fought to the death.
Then he became a victim of the company's struggle, the publicity could not be carried out, and the record results can be imagined.
Throughout the past few months of this year, the neon entertainment industry has blossomed in spite of a hundred flowers.
But if you want to say who performs the best, there is no doubt about cloud arts.
Needless to say, Neon and overseas markets are unique existences.
As long as they release singles, the entire neon music scene will temporarily avoid the edge.
But to the good news of the competitors, although the popularity of the Genki girl is invincible.
But in order to take care of the overseas market, a lot of publicity work has led to their singing frequency not being high.
Of course, this is also deliberately done by Yunshang Arts, in order to avoid too frequent activities and make fans aesthetically fatigued.
Then there is Akina Nakamori, who sits firmly on the front line and begins to challenge the position of Matsuda Seiko.
As for the band MAKE-UP, after their first single became popular, their second single failed to continue to be brilliant.
But the results are stable, and he has been able to compete with the predecessor of the same firm, Aaran Chiko.
Then there's the newly launched male SOLO idol Shingo Kazami.
Relying on his handsome appearance and unique break dancing style, he became popular, and broke the monopoly of Genesys in the men's idol market.
Girl idol group, male and female idol solo, rock band.
This year's cloud entertainment can be said to be in full swing in the field of artist management.
Of course, there are successes and failures.
teamed up with Warner Pioneer Records again to create a female idol Asuka Blowita, which hit the street quite tragically.
After the failure of the first single, the second single once again did not enter the top 100 of the public trust chart.
In the face of such a result, Warner Pioneer suspended Asuka's record production in Suita very unjustly, and threw the mess to Cloud Arts.
This is also the only place where peers in the industry can find comfort in cloud arts.
After all, the newcomers of the entire 83 years have collectively hit the streets, and cloud entertainment is no exception.
Even Shingo Kazami, the most successful, is only better than the newcomers who debuted at the same time.
Compared with many predecessors, the poor results are not half a star.
Hideki Hanyu saw the news recently and found that the person with the most recent media popularity was Seiko Matsuda.
First of all, the film "The Legend of the Burmese Gardenia, Kiss of Heaven", which was invested and produced by Yunying Film and directed by Yoshisuke Kawasaki, was released, and Seiko Matsuda was the absolute heroine.
With the blessing of Shochiku Cinema and Crescent Cinema, the film won more than 500 million yen at the box office in its first week.
According to industry estimates, the total box office of this film will not be less than 2.2 billion yen.
Following the theatrical version of "Magical Dim Sum Shop" and "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time", the cloud release film once again launched a box office blockbuster movie.
The box office was a big hit, and Seiko Matsuda took advantage of the popularity of the movie, and her popularity naturally remained high.
In addition to this reason, there is another reason, which is related to cloud culture.
After the release of the supplement "Elf Cupid", the supplement "Cute Man" became a huge hit among female manga fans.
After three issues as a supplement, Cupid was first released as an independent issue in August.
Genie Publishing House and Yunying Pictures, according to Hanyu Hideki's explanation, began to jointly hype.
The other party released the news and announced that he was preparing to shoot the live-action version of "Boys Over Flowers".
After the news came out, various 'insiders' immediately broke the news about the heroine candidate.
Female stars who can almost be named, of the right age, are all involved.
The unwitting public, celebrity fans, comic book fans, all enthusiastic.
The media saw that there were gimmicks to hype, coupled with the hint of the pictures released on the cloud, and they also began to add fuel to the fire, making various reports on the heroine candidate.
As a result, "Boys Over Flowers", which is only liked by some female comic fans, began to receive a lot of attention.
And then unsurprisingly, it became popular among women.
At the strong request of comic book fans.
"Elf Cupid" had to temporarily print a special issue to integrate and publish the previous stories of "Boys Over Flowers".
Then this special issue generated sales of 600,000 copies, almost catching up with the sales of "Elf Cute".
The comics were very popular, and the hype of the heroine naturally intensified.
Seiko Matsuda has recently become the most popular actor playing Sugina Makino with the support of fans due to the popularity of the movie.
Kyoko Koizumi, who was sitting next to Hideki Hanyu, reached out and fed a piece of watermelon to Hideki Hanyu's mouth.
Then I saw a photo of Seiko Matsuda in the newspaper, and the headline of Makino Sugina's best candidate.
There was a look of disdain in his eyes.
Based on her knowledge of the pictures released on the clouds, the chances of this character falling on her head are higher than that of Seiko Matsuda.
As long as Asako Hirohashi is not stupid, she will not let Seiko Matsuda, a recognized 'scheming girl', play Makino Sugina.
And as Hideki Hanyu's lover, she knows very well that the current news is just to promote the hype of manga magazines.
Before the popularity of "Boys Over Flowers" has not completely spread, the cloud film will definitely not rush to start filming a live-action TV series.
Putting down the last newspaper in his hand, Hideki Hanyu saw that the sky was dark, and the time was already in the afternoon.
He asked Kyoko Koizumi on the side, "I remember that you were going to Fuji TV tonight to record a show?" ”
"There's a stage for the Golden Melody of the Night tonight." Kyoko Koizumi replied.
"It just so happens that I also have a party in the evening, so let's go to dinner first." Hideki Hanyu said.
"Then the teacher will go in my car." Kyoko Koizumi said.
She just got her driver's license last month, and when she has the chance, she will go for a ride in the car that Hanyu Hideki gave her.
"You?" Hideki Hanyu was a little worried about the other party's technique.
Although the Porsche 928 is not the kind of sports car with particularly exaggerated performance, if something happens, his life matters.
As if seeing Hideki Hanyu's concern, Kyoko Koizumi hurriedly promised, "I'll open it slowly." ”
"Okay." Hideki Hanyu agreed.
But Koizumi seemed to remember something, and suddenly said, "Teacher, wait a minute." ”
After saying that, he ran into the cloakroom, and when he came back, he had a gift box in his hand.
Hideki Hanyu asked strangely, "What's that?" ”
Kyoko Koizumi said, "I can't give a birthday present to my teacher last month when I was in America. ”
"Thank you for the gift." Hideki Hanyu said and opened it casually.
The discovery is a men's watch, the Grand Seiko collection by Neon Seiko.
The style is mature and atmospheric, although it is not as good as those sky-high luxury watches in Europe.
But in the neon watch series, it is also the most expensive class.
"I love it, thank you."
Hideki Hanyu put down his watch, hugged the girl and kissed her, and then said, "Do you need me to pick you up at night?" ”
"No need, I'll just drive back by myself, and besides, there are so many people recording the show, it's not good to be seen."
"Then you drive by yourself, pay attention, go clean up, and we'll go to dinner."
……
After the two of them packed up, they went to the underground parking lot of the apartment.
Hideki Hanyu got into Kyoko Koizumi's car and drove towards the restaurant where he ordered food.
It was followed by a Mercedes-Benz driven by Marco and a black Toyota by bodyguards.
Hanyu Hideki's party tonight was not a serious matter, but he didn't come back for a long time, and Yukio Tanaka asked him out for a drink.
So after dinner, Hideki Hanyu got into Marco's car and went to find Yukio Tanaka.
Kyoko Koizumi, on the other hand, drove to Fuji TV.
In the parking lot of Fujidai, she meets up with her agent.
Seeing that the time was not early, the agent hurriedly urged, "Today's Zi-chan, hurry up and go up with me, the show is about to start." ”
The Golden Melody Stage of the Night is a live show, and before it starts, there is definitely a simple process rehearsal.
Today's son is not a senior, so if he is late for preparation, it will be very rude.
But in the face of the agent's urging, Koizumi Kyoko first looked at the Longines watch worth 300,000 yen on his wrist and said unhurriedly.
"Isn't there still twenty minutes left, what's the hurry?"
In the helpless eyes of the agent, she took out a classic bucket bag with the LV logo written on it from the car that cost more than 200,000 yen.
Then he slowly put it on his forearm and said to the agent, "Let's go." ”
Following behind Kyoko Koizumi, the agent looked at the big-name artists from head to toe, whether it was clothes, jewelry, or shoes, all of them were big-name artists, and sighed helplessly.
Since the other party has been on the big guy, it has become more and more difficult to serve.
With the deterrent power of the boss Zhou Fang Yuxiong, the other party is quite obedient at work.
But in terms of attitude towards ordinary staff, although it is not arrogant, it is completely different from before.
Coming to the backstage of the Golden Melody Stage of the Night, Koizumi heard someone greeting her.
When I turned my head, I found that it was Akina Nakamori.
Immediately afterwards, I saw that sitting next to Akina Nakamori was a huge lineup of cloud artists.
The three of them were whispering something to Alan Chiko.
Shingo Kazami stood in front of a few members of the MAKE-UP band, seemingly teaching them to break dance, and from time to time he would do a few moves.
Even Asuka Blowita, whose second single is still hitting the street, was brought on the show by several seniors.
Even if she is not qualified to perform, for the sake of the face of the cloud arts, she can be familiar with the background board in the show.
And what makes Koizumi Kyoko feel interesting is that not far from the cloud system, there is a group of people who are also very conspicuous.
It is the artist of Genesys & Associates.
Toshihiko Tahara was sitting alone, reading the song score, as if preparing for the continuous singing session.
The astringent persimmon team got together and chatted.
Kondo Masahiko is in the posture of a senior, directing a few JR trainees from the Genesys office, and seems to be helping him dance and something.
The two sides are not incompatible, but they are also distinct.
Kyoko Koizumi waved at Akina Nakamori, and then began to say hello to the seniors in the background.
No matter how her personality changes, she doesn't dare to challenge the bottom line of the relationship between neon seniors and seniors.
However, even if she has a respectful attitude, her famous brand still makes her predecessors a little dazzling.
The world of entertainment is Vanity Fair.
You are a junior who is better than me, so it will naturally make some small-minded seniors unhappy.
But no matter how unhappy they are, these people can only be polite on the surface.
After all, behind Koizumi's Kyoko stands the burning office.
In the circle, no one knows the notoriety of Zhou Fang Yuxiong.
However, what you don't dare to do on the bright side doesn't mean that you don't dare to do anything behind the scenes.
For example, why can Koizumi Kyoko wear a famous brand, it must be a gold owner.
What kind of extreme big guy, rich old man or the like, anyway, it's over how malicious and how to guess.
As for Hideki Hanyu, because the secrecy work is relatively good, no one has mentioned it for the time being.
After all, it's not like Yasuko Sawaguchi has appeared in front of everyone.
After visiting all the seniors, Kyoko Koizumi sat next to Akina Nakamori.
"Mingcai-chan came so early." Kyoko Koizumi said.
"It's because Isako-chan came too late." Akina Nakamori said.
"I delayed it for a while because I had to eat." Kyoko Koizumi explained.
"Well, your clothes look so good today." Akina Nakamori looked at Kyoko Koizumi's clothes.
"Givenchy's new season, if you like Mingcai sauce, let's go to Ginza another day, I think they have a few styles that are very suitable for Mingcai sauce."
Speaking of clothes, Koizumi Kyoko immediately became interested.
She knew that Akina Nakamori also loved shopping.
I also know that Akina Nakamori signed a contract with Yunshang Arts, and in addition to fixed living expenses, there are also various bonuses to get.
The income is much stronger than she doesn't know, and buying a few designer clothes is nothing at all.
"Okay, do you have time for the weekend, how about we go together." Akina Nakamori asked.
"Think about it, what happens after five o'clock after noon on a Sunday?"
"No problem, ...... then"
The two wanted to talk more, but unfortunately the show was ready to start soon, and Akina Nakamori was called away by the staff of the program team.
Kyoko Koizumi was idle alone, so she took out the electronic Poké Poké Ball that Hanyu Hideki brought her to pass the time.
But not long after playing, she heard someone sitting next to her.
"Senior, you also have this electronic pet."
Kyoko Koizumi turned her head to look and found that it was Ukita Asuka of Uekida who was speaking from the cloud arts.
Without waiting for her to answer, the girl took out a Poké Ball from her bag, but in a green version.
"Let's play online together."
"Okay." Koizumi happily agreed.
However, at the beginning of the battle, Kyoko Koizumi has been losing in a row.
Asuka Suita came over to look at it a little strangely, and then said in surprise, "The level of the Pokémon elves of the predecessors is too low, and they will definitely not be able to beat me." ”
"Was Suita-san's electronic pet given to him by President Hanyu?" Kyoko Koizumi asked curiously.
She's only been playing with this electronic pet for two days, and her level must be low.
It's strange that the level of Asuka in front of Blowing Fields is so high.
"Isn't President Hanyu in America? I sent this two weeks ago from Cloud Culture, and the predecessors of the firm have it. ”
Asuka Suita replied honestly, and then asked curiously, "Was the senior given by the president?" Has President Hanyu returned to Tokyo? ”
Asuka Blowita knows that this electronic pet hasn't been listed on neon yet.
"Koizumi-san, please go to the stage to prepare for rehearsals."
Koizumi was about to explain, but suddenly heard the program staff call her, so she could only put away the electronic pet and go to prepare for the show first.
After Koizumi Kyoko left, Asuka Suita began to bathe her little fire dragon and feed it.
Just as she was playing with it, Akina Nakamori, who had finished her rehearsal preparations, just came back.
Seeing that Asuka Suita was playing with Poké Balls, she also took out the Poké Balls and said to Asuka Suita with great interest.
"Suita-san, let's go online."
"But my level is not as high as that of Akina Senpai."
"It's okay, my elf hasn't taken care of me since the morning, and I'm not in a good state like yours, so I definitely can't beat you."
Then connect it to the data cable and play online.
After a few rounds of fighting, the two won and lost each other.
While playing, the two also chatted casually.
Asuka Suita said inadvertently, "Isako-senpai also has a Poké Ball, and Akina Senpai can also find her online in the future." ”
"I guess it was sent by President Kitahara." Akina Nakamori said unconcernedly.
"Today's seniors didn't say who gave it to her, but she thought that my Poké Ball was given by the president, and the president was obviously still in Amerika, and her elf level was so low, it felt like she had only been playing for a day or two."
Speaking of this, Asuka Sukita found that other artists were starting to go to the dressing room to prepare, so she asked Akina Nakamori.
"Akina senior, everyone has started to put on makeup and do styling, let's go together."
But Asuka Blowita finished speaking, but found that Akina Nakamori didn't answer her.
Just staring at the Poké Ball in his hand in a daze.
"Akina senpai, what's wrong with you." Asuka Suita asked again.
Akina Nakamori seemed to be awakened, and hurriedly replied, "It's nothing, you go first, I'll wait for a while." ”
"Akina-senpai, then I'll go first." Asuka Suita put away the Poké Ball and turned to leave.
Looking at the back of Asuka Suita leaving, Akina Nakamori bit her lip lightly.
Asuka Suita didn't know, but she knew that Hideki Hanyu had been back in Tokyo for two days.
At this moment, Kyoko Koizumi, who had finished her rehearsal preparations, happened to come over.
Seeing Akina Nakamori there in a daze, he beckoned, "Why don't Akina-chan put on makeup." ”
Then Koizumi Kyoko saw Akina Nakamori looking up at her.
That look was more complicated than ever.
……
At the same time, inside a bathing club in Minato Ward.
Hideki Hanyu, Masashi Yanai, and Yukio Tanaka chatted while enjoying the skillful hand massage of a beautiful technician.
Although it was said that it was for relaxation, it was inevitable to talk about the work of Uniqlo while chatting.
Yanai asked Hanyu Hideki, "The Fast Retailing club that Hanyu-san suggested before has almost been built, what other suggestions does Hanyu-san have next?" ”
"Yanai-san still doesn't want to include the production process in Fast Retailing?" Hideki Hanyu asked.
For the integration of logistics, after-sales and other work into the unified management of Fast Retailing, Yanai Masashi expressed his approval.
But I don't think it's necessary to take care of production.
Sure enough, as soon as Hanyu-san's question came out, Yanai answered it.
"Regarding production, I think as long as we do a good job in quality control, all work is managed, but there will be no efficiency, since it is called fast retailing, we just need to do rapid sales."
"In that case, let's prepare for the opening of a second store according to Yanai-san's idea."
Speaking of which, Hideki Hanyu did not forget to emphasize, "Since Fast Retailing has been established, before opening a store, it is necessary to achieve Fast Retailing first, logistics first and sales later." ”
"Don't worry, I also listened to Hanyu-san's lecture at the beginning, and I should call Hanyu-sensei when I talk about it."
Yanai joked.
"Yanai-san should spare me." Hideki Hanyu begged for mercy.
Then he turned to look at Yukio Tanaka and asked, "How did Yukio-san think about my previous suggestion?" ”
"What advice?"
Yukio Tanaka was pressed comfortably by the beautiful woman, and he completely forgot what Hideki Hanyu had told him.
"Since Liu Jing-san doesn't want to meddle in production, how about we cooperate to invest in garment factories in Huaxia?"
Knowing that Yukio Tanaka couldn't remember anything serious, Hideki Hanyu could only say it again.
"Will there be risks in investing in Huaxia?" Yukio Tanaka asked.
"No matter what investment is risky, but it has nothing to do with where it is, isn't it dangerous to invest in neon?"
After Hanyu Hideki finished speaking, without waiting for Yukio Tanaka to respond, Yanai Masashi on the side spoke first.
"Hanyu-san is right, if you are worried about the risk, don't invest."
"But that's Huaxia." Yukio Tanaka still has some concerns.
"Five years ago, Panasonic dared to invest in Huaxia, what is our investment in garment factories, if Xingxiong-san is not at ease, I will personally accompany Xingxiong-sang to inspect in person."
The garment factory seems simple, but there are many things to consider, and it is also very experienced.
Tanaka Garment has been in the industry for many years and has rich experience, and he still wants to pull Yukio Tanaka with him when he has the opportunity.
With Tanaka's help, he only needs to pay for it in the early stage.
How to build a factory, how to train workers, how to carry out production, is not too easy for Tanaka Garment.
"Hanyu-kun is willing to accompany me, I still have something to worry about, when to go, Hanyu-san will inform me."
Yukio Tanaka looked like I wasn't afraid of anything.
"Don't worry, Yukio-san, I still have to go back and discuss this matter with Mrs. Tanaka, her old man's opinion is still very important."
Hideki Hanyu advised.
"No, I can still call the shots on this little thing." Yukio Tanaka said confidently.
"Let's talk about it, at least Mrs. Tanaka should arrange for a professional to follow us, if Yukio-san knows how to run a garment factory, then I won't say it." Hideki Hanyu looked helpless.
"This ......, let's talk to my mother."
Yukio Tanaka immediately wilted, and he still looked a little confident.
The eldest young master thought to himself, if he knew how to build a factory, he would still be criticized by his mother all day long?
Seeing this, Hideki Hanyu and Yanai Masa, who were next to him, glanced at each other, and then laughed without hesitation.
Their eldest young master's friend is really the same.
Thank you for the slow travel to the sea of books, Mei Yu Youli's recommendation of Lotus Yu's baa dad for the reward.
