Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1264 1264. In the light and in the dark
"It's better to say that Kuroki-san is full of ambitions." Watanabe Wanyumi commented.

It is precisely because of my ambition to be an actress that I have the courage to dedicate myself to art after leaving the group.After all, the experience of being the chief maidservant in the Takarazuka Troupe did not help her become an actress.Even on the contrary, it will limit her development.

When she boldly smashed "Qing Zhengmei", she really drew a line with the Takarazuka Troupe and took the first step to become an actress.I am afraid that there are many considerations in choosing a Dentsu MAN who is willing to support his wife to continue working after marriage as a husband.

After listening to Watanabe Mayumi's words, Iwahashi Shinichi commented, "Such smart people are the most difficult."

There was something in Watanabe Mayumi's words, sarcasm him, "So, please be careful."

Yanqiao Shinichi didn't know how to answer, so he paused, and asked: "Among the actresses from the Takarazuka Troupe, are there any who are particularly famous? Of course, there is no need to mention Fukisan Koshiji."

"Otowa Nobuko-san, Yachikusa Kaoru-san..." Manyumi Watanabe casually reported the names of the two actresses, seeing Shinichi Iwahashi's strange expression, she couldn't help smiling, and asked him, "Are these two also 'necessary to mention'? "

Both of these are big-name actresses who can be named in the inventory of actresses in the Showa era.

Yanqiao Shinichi also laughed, "It seems that Kuroki-san has a bright future." After all, her predecessors did indeed enter the entertainment industry after leaving the group, and successfully reached the front line.

"Indeed." Watanabe Mayumi nodded.She thought about it, and said to Iwahashi Shinichi, "In an era like Otowa Nobuko-san, there was no entertainment world."

"Huh?" Yanqiao Shinichi waited for her next words.

"It is precisely because there is no entertainment industry yet, and there is no mechanism such as scouts sent by the agency to discover newcomers, so in the initial stage of TV dramas, the troupe sent a large number of actors to the entertainment industry."

In the beginning, being a movie actor was seen as an act of self-deprecation.When movies came to the golden age and TV stations came to the start-up period, actors from theater troupes who acted in TV dramas became despised actors again.

"However, after the entertainment agency is on the right track, discovering new talents, cooperating with TV stations, and the new mechanism is in operation, it will be difficult for actors from theater troupes to become a generation of stars like in the past."

Watanabe Wanyumi told Iwahashi Shinichi about the past events in the entertainment industry that he was not familiar with.

Yanqiao Shinichi thought for a while.After the new mechanism of the entertainment industry is put into operation, the actors who come out of the troupe not only have no advantages, but also have their own disadvantages. If they want to enter the mature mechanism, they need to pay twice as much effort.

From this point of view, Kuroki Hitomi's choice after leaving the group may be the optimal solution.

However, Wanyumi Watanabe brought up the past events in the industry, not to analyze Hitomi Kuroki's behavior.Instead, I want to say another thing, "Next, there will be a new era that is different from the previous one."

"Although the existing mechanism in the entertainment industry has been in operation for decades, it is extremely mature. However, the next era will usher in great changes-this point, Shinichi-kun cannot fail to realize it."

Yanqiao Shen nodded, "Indeed, the next era will be an era of great changes."

From the post-war reconstruction to the period of high-speed development, to the unprecedented golden age, and lost in the luxury bubble age, the Japanese life has always been upward despite many changes in the past few decades.But this bubble burst. The Japanese who were born in the period of high-speed development and lived through the upward golden age will face the downward era in the future.

"This time the times change, the audience's mind and lifestyle will undergo fundamental changes, resulting in a certain type of actor, which seems to be temporarily absent. Therefore, actors with such characteristics, even if they are in this mechanism In addition, there will be a moment when you will emerge." Watanabe Wanyumi said.

Shinichi Iwahashi was thoughtful, "According to this, the time has come for troupe actors to become a generation of stars."

Watanabe Wanyumi was noncommittal, "To be precise, he is an actor with such qualities."

"It sounds even more cruel." Yanqiao Shinichi commented.

There's a hazy opportunity out there, and everyone seems close to it, but only those few people have a real chance of grabbing it, and many more can only look at the illusion.

"The entertainment world has always been a place full of illusions," Watanabe Wanyumi said.

Yanqiao Shinichi smiled, "However, after listening to Wanyumi-san, I will start to imagine from now on, what kind of things should be brought to the generation who grew up in the downward era and become the main audience. gone."

Wanyumi Watanabe also smiled, "It's not too early to think about it now."

When the next era and the next batch of main audiences grow up, the entire industry will try its best to please this new batch of audiences.Before that, start thinking about it early, certainly not too much too early.

After all, the popularity of this thing has never been separated from changes in the background of the times and changes in technology.Therefore, it is not unfathomable to predict what may become the next trend and what kind of people will please the audience.

Yanqiao Shinichi now has the energy to imagine the future, and Watanabe Manyumi can't help but also be full of energy, as if he can see that he will maintain this pace of cooperation with him, to face the next era of great changes, and to look forward to the future of this era The next era of the world... the kindling that has been ignited will continue to burn forever.

……

After finishing the business, Yanqiao Shen checked the time and prepared to leave.

He didn't forget the "Slam Dunk" booklet given by Wanyumi Watanabe, took the manga in his hand, and teased her, "Thank you Wanyumi for this great gift."

Mayumi Watanabe showed an innocent expression, and nodded slightly, "Please don't be polite... I'll leave the rest to you, Shinichi-kun."

It was about Shinichi Iwahashi coming out to talk to TV Asahi about the production of the theme song of "Slam Dunk".

Yanqiao Shin smiled and said, "As expected, Manyumi-san's gift is very expensive."

From Watanabe Wanyumi's office back to the record company, the distance is very short.However, recently, Shinichi Iwahashi, who is full of style as the president, still brought the driver over.

He is usually the most informal person, Wanyumi Watanabe found it fresh, and teased him, "Suddenly he has the self-consciousness of a big man."

Yanqiao Shinichi accepted her words, "That's right... After all, he is also a big figure in the entertainment industry."

Such boastful words are rarely heard from Iwahashi Shinichi.Manyumi Watanabe couldn't help laughing, but in her heart, she knew that Shinichi Iwahashi's intentional answer was to avoid the real reason.

However, Wanyumi Watanabe has always been clear about what is the point, so she didn't ask deeply.She looked at Yanqiao Shinichi's upright face, and thought of how people were waiting for him when he came in and out, and suddenly felt funny.

Yanqiao Shinichi was speechless, "Can you stop thinking about strange things while looking at my face?"

"Is it so obvious?" Wanyumi Watanabe pretended to be stupid.

In other words, with the degree of familiarity between the two, it is absolutely impossible for Iwahashi Shinichi to believe Watanabe Mayumi's "stupidity".She herself knew this well, but she didn't want to say it too bluntly.After all, making fun of someone for being the head of a Yakuza organization is not a good thing to say.

Watanabe Wanyumi's mind turned quickly, and suddenly she remembered something, and asked him, "I heard that Shinichi-kun commissioned the production company to write a script for a Goku movie?"

"Did it reach Wanyumi-san?" Iwahashi Shin smiled.

Watanabe Wanyumi said, "After all, it's rare for Shinichi-kun to make such an interesting request."

"It seems that Wanyumi-san had a good laugh when she found out." Yanqiao Shinichi teased her.

Wanyumi Watanabe nodded, "So, Shinichi-kun is interested in Gokudo movies?"... It's quite straightforward to admit that I laughed a little after I knew it.

"Before, when I was chatting with others, I heard some extreme gossip, plus my ping and a half of land——Does Manyumi-san know? The block of Shinjuku [-]-chome was originally under development, but it suddenly appeared. There was a murder case, and the development plan was suspended.”

"There is such a thing." Wanyumi Watanabe subconsciously looked serious when she heard the social news.

Yanqiao Shinichi said, "That murder case was a headless murder case, so I suddenly came up with an idea to make up the beginning of a story based on that murder case, and wanted to see the same thing, written by different screenwriters. In your hands, how will it progress."

"In this way, it looks like something you can do." Wanyumi Watanabe commented.

Yanqiao Shenyi called her sarcasm, but instead smiled, and asked her, "Isn't it interesting to do this?"

"It might be more interesting if you play the leading role yourself." Mayumi Watanabe also smiled.

When Yanqiao Shen heard what she said, he was really serious, and replied, "It's not impossible. Maybe if I play the role, I can perform quite well."

Once his face is tense, he can tell jokes as if they are serious.Wanyumi Watanabe smiled and responded to his joke, "If that's the case, I'll wait and see."

"Stay tuned." As a result, the more Yanqiao Shinichi said, the more he seemed to really plan to use the property for private use, and enjoy the addiction of starring in Renxia movies.When discussing business matters, such a face is more trustworthy, but in such a scene, it makes people a little uncertain.

Watanabe Wanyumi was not sure, so she simply gave up thinking about it and asked him, "So, among the sequels written by the scriptwriters, is there anyone Shinichi-kun you like?"

Shinichi Iwahashi made a fool of himself, "When the production company has a meeting about it, Manyumi-san will know about it."

"What an unhappy man," Watanabe Wanyumi said.

But in the end, he didn't continue to ask.

If I really want to say it, until I told Iwahashi Shinichi about this, she was still skeptical about Iwahashi Shinichi's plan to make a Goku movie.I always feel that doing so is not in his best interests.

But if Shinichi Iwahashi really decides to make such a movie—if that's the case, Wanyumi Watanabe is sure, he must have a reason.

Buried in their minds with an unanswered, but not urgent, question, the two ended their conversation.

……

Iwahashi Shinichi finally bid farewell to Watanabe Mayumi and got into the car.The moment the car started to move, he subconsciously glanced out the window.

calm.However, Yanqiao Shenyi knew in his heart that recently, in the dark, there are two eyes that have been staring at him.

A few days ago, that strange young man was found to appear near him again.Moreover, this time, he was not discovered near the office building of the record company, but when Shinichi Yanqiao went to a party, he was discovered by the staff he arranged. This person also appeared in the vicinity at about the same time .

It is not difficult to find such a young man.However, how did he manage to accurately appear near the venue where he was socializing?
Yanqiao Shinichi was convinced that there was no such a secret ghost beside him who tipped off the news.But what about those who socialized with him?
When that strange young man ran near the record company's office building, he still thought it was his own behavior.But now, he appeared where he shouldn't be.

This forced Yanqiao Shinichi to imagine a possibility.

Behind that young man, there is someone else directing.And they have other plans.

Until that young man appeared where he shouldn't be, Iwahashi Shinichi still focused on that young man.But now, he thought in his heart that the eyes staring at him in the dark were not that young man.

That young man was at best a pawn pushed forward.

Yanqiao Shinichi couldn't figure out why the young man just rushed in front of him and yelled "KIRIN-san!", but now he guessed that the reason why the young man ran away immediately might be because he didn't receive the order.

However, why did he appear so frequently in his vicinity without taking any action?
Except for rushing in front of him and shouting "Kirin-san!", at other times, the young man seemed to prefer to be in an invisible state.There are more places that don't make sense.

In the current situation, Yanqiao Shinichi can completely treat this young man as a stalker and call the police, directly disrupting the opponent's plan.I just don't know if the person commanding behind that young man has other plans.

In fact, even if he had other plans, after knowing that this young man who appeared out of nowhere intentionally appeared beside him with a discarded card, Shinichi Iwahashi didn't feel that the matter was too difficult.

However, he thought about a question in his heart, who is the person behind the scenes?Or, it doesn't matter who is behind the scenes.

What really matters is the power to clean up these unskilled tricks.

Today, he has a decisive position in the industry, but if he wants to reach the real apex of the industry, he still lacks a force.

When Shinichi Yanqiao thought of this in his heart, he changed his mind about attacking the young man directly.He decided to stand still and wait for the opponent's next move.

Some steps, knowing that they are dangerous moves, still have to take that step tentatively.
