Chapter 1190 Chapter 1199, I think there is a job that is very suitable for you! !
The fact that he has been cast as the male lead in "Departures" has long been spread quietly. Even if Shuyou didn't promote it, Miura Tomokazu's agency would have promoted it, after all, he has already signed the contract~
The hesitant actress selection has become the focus of discussion in the industry.
Actresses who have auditioned in the entertainment industry have been asked these days whether they have received any notification, but no one has received a call from Shuyou.
Then some people with bad intentions fabricated a competition in the media and newspapers to determine the most suitable candidate for the female lead of "Departures" - the voting!
Japanese media likes to do polls, comparing a group of artists together and selecting "the most beautiful girl in a thousand years", "the most suitable female artist to be a wife", "the cutest idol" and so on. They also do the same for male artists, such as "the male artist that rich women want to maintain the most" and so on.
The agencies also did not object because it was to increase the exposure of the artists. Some even took the initiative to mention this event in announcements and interviews to get some attention.
Among the candidates for "the most suitable artist for the heroine of "Departures", of course, actors such as Kanako Higuchi and Mieko Harada, who have worked with her before and participated in the audition, are all on the list, and some popular actresses such as Keiko Matsuzaka, Yuko Tanaka, and Miwako Fujitani are also included.
Moreover, Naoki Nagayama’s wife Akina Nakamori is also among the candidates, and she is very popular!
Akina Nakamori, who is promoting her new song on TV Asahi, is being interviewed by the familiar host Akiko Wada:
"Akina-chan, will you be in "Departures"?"
"No!" Nakamori Akina shook her head, her tone was firm, "I'm not the heroine this time."
"Oh?!" Wada Akiko asked in surprise, "Has it been decided?"
"Hi, but I can't reveal the name~" Akina smiled, "I was told to keep it a secret."
"Eh~~~ Why is that~" Wada Akiko is a tomboy, she felt helpless after hearing this, "Did Naoki Nagayama specifically ask me to stir up other people's curiosity?!"
"Hi!"
Akina nodded obediently.
"Can't you say anything at all?"
"Can't~"
Wada Akiko did not give up and sneaked up on Akina:
"Can't you just tell me quietly? We're all good friends and have gossip to share!"
"Da-me."
Akina pushed Wada Akiko away and said righteously:
"I promised not to tell you!"
"Okay~" Wada Akiko hung her head, as if she had given up, and then whispered, "Is it someone I know?!"
"Omera!"
Akina Nakamori covered her chin and grumbled.
"Okay, okay, it looks like I really can't tell you!" Wada Akiko looked at the audience, "You see, I tried my best, but I couldn't get it out of Akina."
Akina Nakamori on the stage opened her eyes wide: "Did you guys actually make an appointment?!"
"Because everyone is curious about the heroine. And Akina looks like she's easy to fool."
The audience in the studio burst into laughter, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
When the laughter died down, Wada Akiko continued the interview and asked a question that many people were concerned about:
"By the way, Director Nagayama is young and rich, and when he makes a movie, he works with very attractive female artists. Has Akina ever been worried?"
"Worry?"
"It's just those gossips and rumors," Wada Akiko said with an experienced look, "Men are all fickle~"
"how come."
"Naoki-san is very loyal!" Akina Nakamori said to Akiko Wada with a smile, "Men will settle down after they get married!"
"Oh." Wada Akiko looked unconvinced.
The recording site of the program was once again filled with buzzing laughter and discussions.
Akina didn't doubt her husband at all.
You should know that friends and besties in the industry sometimes ask questions like, "Akina, how do you control your husband?" "How do you tie your Naoki's heart so tightly?" "How do you turn the playboy Naoki into a loyal Naoki?"
After all, there are really few such happy couples in the entertainment industry.
She always answered like this: "That's because Naoki-san is a good person. You should fall in love with a good person instead of trying to make him better!"
Give your husband enough face in front of outsiders.
Of course, as the first wife, sometimes you still have to be jealous and act coquettishly to make your husband feel cared for!
This is the "art of controlling husbands" she has summed up from various long-term lovers!
In fact, when choosing Yamaguchi Momoe this time, Akina Nakamori felt a little sense of crisis.
Yamaguchi Momoe was once Naoki Nagayama's idol, and they had been together for such a long time, so she also knew that Naoki Nagayama had done irrational things because of Yamaguchi Momoe's retirement.
But after coming home once, Mingcai felt relieved.
Because when Naoki Nagayama was talking with Momoe Yamaguchi, he was only thinking about what Momoe Yamaguchi could bring to "Departures" and Momoe Yamaguchi, the pros and cons, and there was no emotional spark at all.
“When the heroine is announced, I wonder if Naoki-san’s experience will be brought up for discussion.”
On Shuyou's side, the three senior executives of the group were all mysterious and did not mention a word about the heroine.
Because the purchase of the IP usage rights of Yamaguchi Momoe has not yet been finalized, everything has to be kept confidential.
Everyone in the Shuyou Building was secretly discussing who the heroine would be. This made the only exception, Kyon Kimura, who knew the inside story, very uncomfortable. He had originally wanted to brag about his great achievement in facilitating Yamaguchi Momoe's comeback!
Fortunately, others generally cannot find him, otherwise he would have leaked the secret quickly.
At this time, Nishimoto Banyuki came to the Shuyou Building happily. He had been to various places in the past few days, looking for the male and female protagonists of "Long Vacation", and today he felt that he had found them!
"Eh? Kijima-san?" With the help of a golden light, Nishimoto Banyuki spotted Kijima Kyon's figure in the office. "Why aren't you talking in the corner?"
"Nothing." Kimura sighed, then asked, "Xiben, why do you look so happy?"
“Because we found the right actor!”
Nishimoto Banyuki said happily,
"So, who are the male and female protagonists of "Long Vacation"?"
"As for the female lead, the one chosen is Chikako Aoyama from our tree friend!" said Nishimoto Banyuki. "I just starred in Across the World, and I want to strike while the iron is hot and take advantage of the popularity."
"Ah, Chikako-chan."
Kyon Kimura nodded. Chikako Aoyama could be said to be the artist who had the smoothest path as a female actress among the current actresses in the film industry. Moreover, she had a more generous image and the demeanor of an urban woman. She was very suitable for the heroine in "Long Vacation".
"Where's the hero?"
"Haha, speaking of the leading actor, he's quite legendary!"
Nishimoto Banyuki became more and more excited.
"Mr. Kijima, do you know how hard I tried to find you? I even went to gigolo clubs!"
"."
There's no need to say out loud that you've been to a gigolo club.
Kimura was stunned for a moment, then waved his hands casually. He didn't care about any new actors now, because no one was more legendary than Yamaguchi Momoe.
"So, it's really the cowherd?"
"Hahaha, I almost became a gigolo!"
Nishimoto Banyuki laughed.
"I was in a shop in Kabukicho, and I happened to see a guy who seemed to be pulled here by a local pimp. It seemed that he wanted to come here to work, but he didn't expect to be called to be a gigolo. Hahaha~"
"Oh?"
"Luckily I intercepted him halfway, otherwise he would have become a gigolo!" Nishimoto Banyuki laughed, "By the way, he's a very handsome guy. His name is Fukuyama Masaharu!"
Masaharu Fukuyama was a native of Nagasaki who had a relatively wealthy life since childhood.
Born in Nagasaki, attended a private kindergarten, studied at Nagasaki Industrial High School, and after graduation, worked at Nagasaki Electric Power Company. Later, he might find a local wife in Nagasaki and have several children.
It should have been a stable life for a county Brahmin~
However, young people all have restless hearts. After the first "Neon Voice" was broadcast, he was attracted by this talent show that relies purely on singing, and kept paying attention to it until Izumi Sakai won the championship.
After the end of the first season, he was inspired and immediately quit his stable and well-paid job at the power company and came to Tokyo alone to pursue his musical dream!
However, living in Tokyo is not easy!
Soon, this city of lights and feasting gave him a slap in the face.
"If you don't pay the rent, get out!"
"No overtime? You're fired!"
"Private Marseille. Pizza shop currently has no staff needs."
It is difficult for young people without any skills to make money. If you want to pursue a career in music, live houses will not want you, an unknown guy. The high cost of living in Tokyo cannot be paid by doing odd jobs.
The second season of "Neon Voice" will start auditioning in June.
Fukuyama Masaharu was at the end of his rope and had no choice but to ask his family for help. However, his family was very unhappy with him for quitting his stable job at the power company.
When he was wandering around Shinjuku Sanmachime looking for odd jobs.
"Hey, bro!" There was a guy with long hair, sunglasses and a suit who looked very fashionable. "You look like you're looking for a job!"
"Hi" Masaharu Fukuyama moved a little further away from this guy.
"I think there's a job that's perfect for you!" Roland took off his sunglasses, looked him up and down, and then held out his hand. "We're still short of someone in our store! My name is Roland!"
"My name is Masaharu Fukuyama. Nice to meet you."
"Haha, alright, alright~ No need to be so formal!" Roland patted Fukuyama Masaharu on the shoulder, "Maybe we'll be colleagues in the future!"
"Um, what store is it?"
"It's called Club Ai," Roland said, "It's a drinking place in Kabukicho!"
"Are you looking for a waiter?!" Fukuyama Masaharu was just an 18-year-old young man, still very innocent, "Then I can do the job!"
"Hahaha, waiter, I guess! But the service level is a bit higher."
Roland didn't elaborate and directly pulled him towards Shinjuku 2-chome.
It was morning, and Kabukicho was not yet in its peak season. Most of the shops were empty, and it looked a bit desolate.
Masaharu Fukuyama had heard of Kabukicho. Although he couldn't afford it, he knew there were many brothels here. But it didn't matter. He was a man, so what was wrong with him working here?
However, when he saw the shop door with "Club Love" on it, his anus suddenly tightened.
"Roland-san," said Masaharu Fukuyama, standing at the door. "This is a gigolo club!"
"Yes! We come here to drink!" Roland pulled Masaharu Fukuyama inside, "I think you are quite pretty, brother Fukuyama. You will definitely be very popular. Maybe you can become the trump card of our store in the future!"
Fukuyama Masaharu immediately shook his head:
"But. But I don't want to be a gigolo!"
"Don't discriminate against any profession. Being a male PR is a very challenging job!" Roland pulled the man inside with both hands. "You'll know once you get in!"
"No, don't!"
Fukuyama Masaharu grabbed the door frame tightly.
"Roland-san, I don't want this job anymore!"
"Hahaha, now that I'm here, if I don't do this job, are you giving face to me, the gold medal gigolo Roland?!"
These days, Kabukicho is full of gangsters. Some of the ladies working here are forced to work here by gangsters, and the gigolos are no exception.
For men, it is naturally less, because men will resist~
However, it is obvious at first glance that Masaharu Fukuyama came from the countryside to work in Tokyo and has no background. His fair and handsome appearance may scare him, but then show him the benefits and persuade him well, and there will definitely be no problem!
"Come on, Brother Fushan, today is your first day as a gigolo!!"
"."
As the two were arguing, Nishimoto Banyuki came out of the store and saw the two arguing and heard the general conversation.
"Yoho? This young man?"
Nishimoto Banyuki looked Fukuyama Masaharu up and down, then smiled.
"Are you looking for a job?!"
“I think there is a job that is perfect for you!!!”
Upon hearing this, Fukuyama Masaharu shuddered all over.
"Dad, Mom, Tokyo is too dangerous!"
"Hahaha~ Phew. Cough cough cough~"
The water that Kijima Kyon was drinking spurted out. He looked at Nishimoto Banyuki in surprise and laughed,
"So you really found a leading man from the entrance of the gigolo club?!"
"Hi!" Nishimoto Banyuki also laughed, "It was indeed captured from the door!"
"After that, I explained to him for a long time, and only then did he believe that I was from Shuyou. Otherwise, this guy might have run away!"
"Oh? In that case, you've brought it here?"
"Well, Otomo-san is interviewing right now."
Nishimoto Banyuki said,
"I think we can sign him right away. Fukuyama-san is handsome and has great potential! I think he's on par with Naoki-san!"
"Hooh?"
Kyon Kimura shook his head to express his disbelief in a handsome and clean-looking guy like Nagayama Naoki. He rarely saw one in the entire entertainment industry!
But soon, Xing Jiahua came down from the building with a young man:
"Fukuyama-san, this floor is the film department's floor. Director Nishimoto, who brought you here earlier, works here."
Mu Daoxu looked back and saw a handsome and elegant young man walking towards him from the aisle. His handsome face and picturesque features made people feel good at first sight.
As expected, he is similar to Naoki-san! But he is more refined and elegant.
Nishimoto Banyuki stood up, greeted with a smile and asked:
"Hana-chan, have you brought people here for a tour? Has Otomo-san made up his mind?"
"Hi! Although we haven't signed the contract yet, Fukuyama-kun will be our colleague from now on!"
Xing Jiahua said with a smile.
The process at the agency is so quick. Once the scout finds a good candidate and the president sees that there is no problem, he can directly make the decision to sign the candidate!
As a former talent scout, Yoshimura Otomo can naturally see the potential of Fukuyama Masaharu~
“Hahahaha,” Nishimoto Banyuki patted Fukuyama Masaharu on the shoulder, “Fukuyama-kun, we’ll all be tree friends from now on!”
"Thank you for the recommendation, Mr. Nishimoto. I really don't know how to thank you."
Masaharu Fukuyama was truly grateful to Nishimoto Banyuki for not only pulling him out of the gigolo trap, but also bringing him into the Shuyou Group, which was envied by everyone in the entertainment industry. This was a great favor!
"Haha, it's nothing. We still have a lot of time to spend together!"
Nishimoto Banyuki was also very happy.
"Soon, your first play will begin filming!"
"what?!"
"It's called 'Long Vacation'!"
