Hideki Hanyu left Tokyo for a short time.

But there is no shortage of what has happened.

On the last day of September, dentsu and cloud entertainment jointly made an announcement.

The announcement is long, but the general meaning is that the two clubs will join forces with other investors to form Storm Advertising Co., Ltd.

Storm Advertising Co., Ltd. will focus on content to develop overseas advertising markets.

At the same time, it is also to provide better advertising services for overseas brands in Neon.

……

This announcement has not had a big impact on the brand.

But for the neon advertising industry, the entertainment industry, and the film and television industry, the influence is explosive.

People in the industry understand what the name of Cloud Entertainment in the list of shareholders of Storm Advertising represents.

On behalf of this company, it has become one of the top rule-makers in the circle.

Even if it's just for overseas brands.

And look at what is said in the announcement, with the content as the core.

It is clear that although Cloud Entertainment is a minority shareholder, its rights will never be small.

After all, no matter how other investors look at it, they are just here to share benefits and provide background support.

The real work is probably cloud entertainment.

For a time, people in the industry were different.

In the past, the relationship that cooperated happily with Cloud Entertainment will only continue to have a good relationship with Cloud Entertainment.

As for those who have a general relationship with cloud entertainment, or are slightly unpleasant and can make up for it, they will come to the door to apologize as soon as possible.

And what really can't be made up, such as the Genesys office that killed the bayonet before.

At this time, it was already gloomy.

In the past, online screening only relied on advertising production, and various targeted artists under their banners.

Although the cloud screening film constantly emphasizes that when they choose advertising actors, they are based on the quality of the advertisement, and will not use power for personal gain.

But since the rise of cloud screening, the number of artist advertising endorsements of Genesys has begun to fall off a cliff, but it is an indisputable fact.

Genesys went to the same time to communicate with Dentsu for this reason.

But even if you don't use the artists of Genesys, the advertising effect of the brand is not bad.

So even if it is a box office, no one is willing to take the risk of asking for a change of advertising actors.

In case the ratings are not good, it will be the responsibility of the person who asks for the change of advertising actors.

Now that the cloud film has been reorganized and cloud entertainment has been reorganized, and it has set up a storm advertisement with dentsu.

It means that the overseas brand advertisements that used to be able to bypass the cloud screening pictures are now no longer kept.

When the Kitagawa siblings saw this announcement, they even wanted to look for Cloud Entertainment to bow their heads and apologize.

And Janis is so unlucky, and the industry peers are also happy to see it.

Because of the vacant share of male idols at Genesys, they all have a chance.

After all, cloud entertainment has always done things fairly.

Although he also has artists in his own house, he did not give all the advertisements to his own artists because of their ugly appearance.

On the contrary, in addition to the important publicity period, Cloud Entertainment will even deliberately reduce the exposure of its own artists in advertising.

This is also the reason why peers in the industry are more convinced.

Ask yourself, if they have this kind of resource, they don't want to leak out even if it is an advertising opportunity.

The movement of cloud entertainment and dentsu this time is not insignificant.

Storm Advertising Co., Ltd. has decided to hold an inauguration ceremony on October 5.

Everyone in the industry has a little energy, and they are looking for relationships in every way and want to participate in this ceremony.

Especially artists in the industry, who doesn't want to be familiar with this occasion that is destined to be full of bigwigs.

The few performance spots are almost snatched up.

As the organizer of Cloud Entertainment, the threshold has been broken by the related parties recently.

It was in such a situation that Hideki Hanyu received a call from Asako Hirohashi as soon as he returned to Neon.

He could only hand over the follow-up work after the end of the investigation to Kinko Egami, and then rushed to the headquarters of Yunying Film and Television.

Now it should be called cloud entertainment.

Lamborghini roared all the way, attracting the attention of countless passers-by, and finally came to the cloud entertainment headquarters in Shimbashi, Minato District.

Hideki Hanyu parked his car and noticed that the building under construction had changed again.

I don't know how far the internal construction is going.

The glass curtain wall of the façade has been completed.

The curtain wall at the front of the building has a very beautiful curve.

At the top, workers are working on the installation of some pipe spouts.

When completed, there will be a man-made waterfall of more than 15 meters.

When it was first designed, Hideki Hanyu didn't approve of it.

But everyone else thinks it's very beautiful and magnificent.

Hideki Hanyu can only be said to be very pompous and frothy.

These people just like this kind of flashy stuff.

However, thinking of the coming bubble in the future, Neon collectively pursued this exaggerated effect.

With this man-made waterfall alone, this building will be able to sell for tens of millions more, and Hideki Hanyu agreed to the design plan.

Anyway, whether it's a building or a land, it's all his.

When the time comes, sign a lease contract, it doesn't have to be too long, five years is fine.

Then they sold the land along with the building before the housing prices plummeted.

There is no need to be afraid that the new landlord will evict people, because the lease period has not yet ended, and I am afraid that the person who bought the house will cry and beg Cloud Entertainment to buy the house back.

What if it doesn't sell?

It doesn't matter if you don't sell it, the money is already in hand anyway.

It's a big deal to build a new one, and when the time comes, some people will sell the land.

Thinking so, Hideki Hanyu got out of the car.

The new office building has not yet been opened.

At this time, he still works in the old building.

Before he could walk from the parking lot, he saw that although the painting on the cloud had been reorganized, the sign on the old office building had not been replaced.

There is still a sign of a painting on the cloud.

Entering the office building, the employees greeted each other cautiously.

It's another graduation season, and there are a few more new faces.

The atmosphere when I saw him was much more serious.

Like the employees who used to say hello jokingly when they saw him, there are few that I can't see along the way.

The old employees in the training room, who can still stay in the club at this time, have basically been promoted to management positions.

If you don't touch the ground with your feet in a busy day, how can you have time to walk around the office building.

When he came to Asako Hirohashi's door, before he could enter, Asako Hirohashi's secretary said to him, "President Hanyu, President Hirohashi is receiving guests. ”

"Which one?" Hideki Hanyu asked.

"Watanabe Production." The secretary replied.

Hearing this name, Hideki Hanyu didn't expect it.

Watanabe Productions, the founder of the Neon Artist Agency.

Although it is not as powerful in the entertainment industry as it used to be, it is still a giant in the industry.

The network accumulated by the founder Jin Watanabe must not be underestimated.

"I see."

Hanyu Hideki nodded, "I'll go to the reception room and wait, and let me know when someone leaves." ”

"Yes, President Hanyu."

With the secretary's answer, Hideki Hanyu walked towards the reception room.

Who would have thought that at this time, the office door of Asako Hirohashi was suddenly pushed open.

I saw that Asako Hirohashi was politely sending the two ladies away.

One of the two ladies is older and has a dignified and calm temperament.

The other is younger, in his early twenties, with an upper-average appearance, but with short hair that looks quite youthful and beautiful.

As soon as the three of them went out, they happened to see Hideki Hanyu, who was about to leave.

"When did Hanyu-san arrive?" Asako Hirohashi asked.

"I just arrived."

Hideki Hanyu finished speaking and looked at the two ladies.

Asako Hirohashi hurriedly introduced, "Hanyu-san, these two are Mrs. Watanabe, the president of Watanabe Productions, and Mrs. Watanabe's daughter, Miss Watanabe Manyumi. ”

"Mrs. Watanabe, Miss Watanabe, it's a pleasure to see you."

Hideki Hanyu smiled and said hello.

"Hello Hanyu-sensei, I didn't expect to see Hanyu-sensei for the first time on such an occasion, it's really rude."

Mrs. Watanabe politely returned the salute.

"Hanyu-sensei, please take care of me when we meet for the first time."

Watanabe Manyumi bowed neatly and said hello.

Then he looked at Hideki Hanyu with a slightly curious look.

As the second lady produced by Watanabe, in terms of background, she doesn't know how much stronger she is than Hideki Hanyu.

If I'm not mistaken, the other party is a little younger than her.

But when it comes to achievements, the gap between them is simply incalculable.

Storm Advertising was established, and even her mother had to take her to visit Cloud Entertainment to help its artists find opportunities.

"Mrs. Watanabe is too polite, you and Mr. Watanabe are the seniors who created the rules of the entertainment industry, if you want to say rudeness, it should be me, in order to express my apologies, I will definitely visit you in person another day."

"That's great, Watanabe Productions welcomes Hanyu-sensei very much."

While the two were talking, Hideki Hanyu felt the gaze of Manyumi Watanabe looking at him.

The second lady of the Watanabe family.

In the future, Watanabe made all kinds of scandal-ridden and gradually declined.

The TOP COAT office created by the other party is a clear stream in the neon entertainment industry.

Masaki Sugata, Nozomi Sasaki......

These well-known stars in China are all artists under the other party.

And with his good personality charm, a group of artists followed him with all their hearts.

Mr. Hanyu admires this.

Of course, a large part of the goodwill is because he hasn't finished watching a certain part before he crosses.

After a brief chat at the door, Hideki Hanyu said goodbye to the mother and daughter produced by Watanabe.

politely sent the other party to the elevator, which was enough to save face.

Here, Hideki Hanyu and Asako Hirohashi return to the office.

On the other side, Misa Watanabe and Manyumi Watanabe sat in the back of the car.

Watanabe Manyumi couldn't help but say to her mother, "This Hanyu president should make his debut as an artist." ”

Mrs. Watanabe smiled when she heard this, "With his current status, how can he be an artist." ”

"I'm just talking about it."

Of course, Watanabe Manyumi knows that even if Hanyu Hideki wants to be an artist, the neon people don't agree.

After the other party set up the cloud screening, he was basically not publicly responsible for the management of the club.

It's so low-key that it's easy to ignore Hideki Hanyu's identity as a picture in the clouds.

The industry knows more about cloud screening, but it is actually Asako Hirohashi, a strong woman.

And the more important label on Hanyu Hideki is his own identity as a writer.

Originally, he was a national teacher with a high reputation in society.。

After winning the Kate Greenway Award, the public recognition has increased by I don't know how much.

Even the cultural circles and the public feel that Hideki Hanyu is enough to receive a cultural medal.

Such a person debuts as an artist, which firm dares to accept it, just wait to be criticized by the public until it closes.

"What is Manyumi-chan's impression of him?" Mrs. Watanabe asked suddenly.

"His appearance is very good, and his temperament is also very good, before today, I thought he was the kind of person who is arrogant and arrogant, but I didn't expect him to be a humble gentleman."

I heard my daughter praise Hanyu Hideki so much.

Mrs. Watanabe's smile widened, "It seems that Manyumi-chan admires this Hanyu-sensei. ”

"If you can't talk about appreciation, it's ......"

Watanabe Manyumi didn't finish speaking, as if she realized something, she turned her head and saw the smile on her mother's face, and immediately cried and laughed.

"Mother doesn't want me to have another relationship with him?"

"What? Isn't it possible? The other party is so good, and the two of you are about the same age. ”

"It's really good, but outsiders don't know, my mother doesn't know it, he ......"

Watanabe Manyumi didn't finish speaking, and the Watanabe woman guessed what her daughter wanted to say.

It's nothing more than the fact that Hideki Hanyu raised a female artist to be a lover.

"Wan Yumi-chan has been working for so long, can't you see through this thing?

Your father had a woman outside, but I wasn't the one who ended up in charge of Watanabe's productions.

With the status of Hanyu Hideki, it is no longer possible to marry a female artist home.

Even if he agrees, those who follow him in starting a business, as well as the stakeholders involved, will not agree.

Whether it is an idol or an actor, no matter how popular they are, they are always at the bottom.

As long as you look high enough and far, you won't see these people in your eyes. ”

Mrs. Watanabe said earnestly.

In her opinion, if her daughter can get together with Hanyu Hideki, it will be too perfect.

Watanabe's production connections, the strength of cloud entertainment.

Together, there will be an unprecedented giant in the neon entertainment industry.

As for the meaning of the mother, Watanabe Manyumi can understand.

But on this matter alone, she couldn't accept it.

Even if Hideki Hanyu is excellent.

But being good doesn't mean coming together.

But at this time, she couldn't continue to refute her mother, so she could only smile helplessly in her heart.

At the same time, inside the office of Asako Hirohashi.

Asako Hirohashi asked jokingly, "The second lady of the Watanabe family has been watching Hanyu-san just now. ”

"Oh, really?" Hideki Hanyu looked like I didn't know.

"A girl with a lot of ideas, but it's a good fit for Hanyu-san."

"Suitable?" Hideki Hanyu pretended to be confused.

"Of course, it's career-helping."

"Then I shouldn't look for her, but I should find a consortium lady to marry."

Hanyu Hideki said this, knowing that if he continued to pretend to be confused, Asako Hirohashi would go on endlessly.

simply made it clear.

"The second lady of the Watanabe family is not the type I like."

Then he made a profane comment, "The height is too short, the legs are not straight enough, and the face is a little too tough." ”

"If you're looking for a wife, it doesn't really matter."

Asako Hirohashi does not approve.

As a career-oriented woman, she cares more about ability when evaluating a woman.

"If you want to get along day and night for a lifetime, you must first look pleasing to the eye." Hideki Hanyu retorted.

"No one can be beautiful forever, because no one can be eighteen forever." Asako Hirohashi said.

"But there will always be an eighteen-year-old beauty."

Hanyu Hideki's words instantly made Asako Hirohashi couldn't help but say.

"Hanyu-san didn't treat feelings like this before."

When Hideki Hanyu was with that Takarazuka actress before.

She even felt that Hideki Hanyu would settle down like Shinsuke Ito.

Who would have thought that after Hideki Hanyu broke up, he went to the other extreme.

"People always become." Hanyu Shushu stall spread.

After he said that he didn't want to talk about his feelings anymore, he changed the subject.

"Asakus-san asked me to come just to talk about it."

"Of course not." Asako Hirohashi said.

She didn't want to talk anymore either.

The main reason is that Hanyu Hideki is annoyed by saying that she really wants to find a female artist to marry, and that is the last thing she wants to see.

"Dentsu asked us to be in charge of the inauguration ceremony of this storm advertisement, and many peers in the industry wanted to arrange people to attend, and the competition for several places to perform at the banquet was also very fierce."

Asako Hirohashi said as she handed a list to Hideki Hanyu.

"These are the people who want to put on a show."

Hanyu Hideki took it and took a look, these names, as well as the relationship represented behind them, were really not suitable to push anyone away.

"Is there a sure candidate for Asako-san?" Hideki Hanyu asked.

Asako Hirohashi replied, "Only the people from our office have been identified. ”

Hideki Hanyu was silent when he heard this, and his fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the chair a few times.

Then he said something that surprised Asako Hirohashi, "If we get rid of our people, won't the quota be about the same." ”

"That's enough allocation, but isn't such a good opportunity for our artists to perform?"

Asako Hirohashi asked.

"There is a saying in Huaxia Ancient Book University, animals and horses ride, and they don't notice chickens and dolphins. The home of ice felling, not cattle and sheep. ”

Seeing that Asako Hirohashi looked confused, Hideki Hanyu could only explain carefully.

"They want the artists to perform, they just want to show their faces in terms of the relationship with the ceremony and help the artists develop their careers.

And what they are looking for, we already have.

So why should we go for something that is not useful to us?

On the contrary, it will seem that we are too greedy and leave no chance for others. ”

"I see."

Asako Hirohashi understood what Hideki Hanyu meant and followed.

"The storm advertisement has been established, we have enough limelight, it's time to keep a low profile."

"It's good that Asakusan understands, after all, we joined the storm advertisement with our production ability, not by artists." Hideki Hanyu said.

Cloud entertainment seems to be flying very high, but the foundation is still too shallow.

And when he attacked Genesys & Associates, it was too obvious because of his personal emotions.

It has made many people in the circle feel sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox.

Fortunately, they know how to share the benefits in the follow-up, otherwise they will be isolated by the circle once they join forces.

No matter how much memory he has in his head, it will be difficult for him to develop.

In the opinion of the current Hanyu Hideki.

If he were to go back to the beginning of the conflict, he would still attack Genesys, but it would never be so direct, and he should have done it more subtly.

"At the inauguration ceremony, was Hanyu-san's speech prepared as a representative of the shareholders?" Asako Hirohashi asked.

"Isn't Yoshioka-san also a director? Let him speak. ”

"But ......"

Asako Hirohashi didn't want to say it, but she had to admit it.

Shota Yoshioka's influence is too far behind that of Hideki Hanyu.

"It's okay, I just need to attend the ceremony, and whether I speak or not doesn't affect the result."

It's not a good thing that he's too showy on that occasion.

There are so many big people, and no one can look at him unpleasantly.

"I see, I'll inform Yoshioka-san and get him ready to speak."

Next, the two chatted for a long time about the establishment ceremony of Storm Advertising.

In the end, Hideki Hanyu remembered something and asked Asako Hirohashi, "Is Akina Nakamori's rest over?" ”

"I came back three days ago, I watched the psychological evaluation reported by Iijima Sanchi, and the recovery is not bad, and the promotion of the new single has begun."

"New single?" Hideki Hanyu is strange.

"The theme song of the trip, the song of the sunset."

Asako Hirohashi looked helpless, "This is Hanyu-san's work." ”

"It turned out to be this song, and the movie has been in theaters for three weeks, is it a new single now?"

In Hideki Hanyu's memory, the song Kondo Scumbag is not very popular in neon.

Far from the Chinese cover version of this song, it has a great influence in Asia.

"The performance of this song is very strange, it is tepid at first, and the highest number on the public credit chart is only 32, which is the worst record released by Akina Chan in recent times.

But after the end of the second week, it somehow began to be popular, and this week has already entered the top 10. ”

"This song is performed very well, and it is normal to be recognized by the audience, and some songs need to be tasted slowly."

When watching the test screening, Hideki Hanyu also listened to this song.

The arrangement of the movie version gives people a feeling of harmony with the movie.

But compared to the movie, the music itself left a poor impression on him.

I thought it would be as tepid as my previous life, but I didn't expect a counterattack.

Inexplicably, Hideki Hanyu had a premonition.

This song has a good chance of helping Akina Nakamori make a breakthrough in the awards.

But if that's the case, he, a songwriter, can't get busy with it.

Previously, at the invitation of Toshikazu Tsukura, he joined the Neon Composers Association.

I also promised the other party that I would participate in the association's awards.

In the first year, you must not release the other pigeon, otherwise you will offend people.

In this case, once the professional reputation of "Sunset Song" is too good.

I can't go home for the New Year, and I'm going to participate in the record awards.

Thinking of this, Hideki Hanyu felt a little troublesome.

After chatting with Asako Hirohashi for a while, Hideki Hanyu chose to leave.

This time I came back, not only on the cloud entertainment.

The same is true for culture on the cloud.

Compared to the good news on the side of cloud entertainment.

The news that Eri Kitahara told him was not good.

Poké Ball sold more than 300,000 units on the first day, but it began to decline the next day, but it has since stabilized sales.

Single-day sales are basically maintained at more than 150,000 units.

In the first seven-day sales week, the total sales exceeded 1.35 million units.

Generated sales of more than 4 billion yen.

After entering the second week, sales declined slightly, but still remained above 100,000 units.

But the appearance of a piece of news has caused a significant decline in sales.

That is, there are media reports that Genie Entertainment has made anti-addiction restrictions on the Poké Balls sold by Neon.

Americaka's Poké Ball, however, does not.

Such a practice is a blatant discrimination and discrimination against neon consumers.

Although Eri Kitahara contacted Asako Hirohashi as soon as possible, he suppressed the news.

But under the manipulation of well-intentioned people, the news was not completely suppressed.

Affected by the negative news, the single-day sales of Poké Balls fell below 100,000.

Although this is still a pretty number for the contenders.

But for Elf Entertainment, the less money earned is a loss.

On the way to Shinagawa Ward, Hideki Hanyu kept thinking about it.

It's useless to just press the news.

If you don't handle it well, sooner or later you will be moved out by someone with a heart.

But what should be done?

Hideki Hanyu had a headache and didn't come up with a way until he came to Eri Kitahara's office.

However, when he entered the office, he saw an unexpected person sitting inside.

"Mr. Katz, I didn't expect you to be in Neon."

Hideki Hanyu stepped forward to say hello.

That's right, it was none other than Michael Katz.

For the man who helped him make a lot of dollars in America, Hideki Hanyu felt pleasing to the eye no matter how he looked at it.

"I should have been here two days ago because I was working on some work and I was actually late."

Michael Katz said.

"Mr. Katz is coming Neon, who's in charge of America's side?"

Hanyu didn't care if Michael Katz was late, he was more worried about that.

Investigation is investigation, but he cannot delay making dollars.

"Mr. Satoshi Iwata is in charge." Michael Katz said.

"Looks like Mr. Katz admires Satoshi Iwata."

Hanyu Hideki thought to himself, Brother Satoshi was the manager he trained for Elf Entertainment.

I didn't expect that Neon was not "willing" to use it yet, but it was the first to pick up the girder on América's side.

"Satoshi Iwata is very talented, he grows very fast, and I trust his abilities."

Michael Katz did not hesitate to praise Satoshi Iwata.

When Hanyu Hideki heard this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

In this era, it is really rare to have such an American management that does not discriminate against Asians.

He is a person who is willing to work for Sega in the future.

Wait a minute!

Discrimination......

Hanyu Hideki looked at Michael Katz's face and thought of the word discrimination, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind.

He thought about how to deal with the negative press about Poké Balls.

And if it's well used.

Far from having an impact on Poké Ball's sales in Neon, this negative press will no longer affect Poké Balls' sales.

If you don't know it, it can also make the sales of Poké Balls in Neon go to a higher level.

Thank you for the tip
