National Tide 1980.

Chapter 1022
But this guy became more and more perverted because he couldn't get what he asked for.

He secretly lusted after Keiko Matsumoto, secretly drank from her cup, ate her meals, collected her hair, and hugged her bedding.

It's just that this doesn't satisfy his hunger, so he looks for opportunities to relieve his anger.

Shooting back arrows, digging traps, pressing burdens, wearing small shoes, always making things difficult during filming.

In private, he hooked up with another actress, Michiko Harada, to vent his dissatisfaction and obsession with Keiko Matsumoto.

Although many people in the crew can see the sinister intentions of Director Fukasaku.

But the Japanese are good at flattering and obedient. Due to the power and power of the director in the film crew, the film crew can only pretend to be stupid and pretend not to know.

Even Ryoko Ishida, who is also the heroine, could not intervene too much under the repeated reminders and persuasion of her agent.

To avoid a direct conflict with the director, at best, he can only indirectly provide help within his capacity for Keiko Matsumoto.

So during the period when Ning Weimin returned to China, Matsumoto Keiko had a hard time.

Under heavy oppression, he not only suffered mental grievances, but also fell ill several times.

And even if the movie was finally finalized, Keiko Matsumoto could not completely get rid of the haze brought by the movie, really survived and ushered in the days of breathing free air.

Michiko Harada, who climbed onto the director's bedside and became the director's new favorite, completely betrayed Keiko Matsumoto in order to ensure that she could win this year's important awards in the film and television industry and become famous.

This taciturn and shameless woman completely forgot Matsumoto Keiko's support and care.

Not only once tried to act as a pimp, but also persuaded Matsumoto Keiko to give in for the director many times.

And after the film was finished, she also found a reporter from the entertainment tabloid to expose the conflict between director Fukasaku and Keiko Matsumoto in the crew of "The Man in the House of Fire".

Then he blatantly stood on the side of the leading director and tried his best to discredit Matsumoto Keiko.

To say that she is not professional is no longer the actress who is willing to sacrifice herself for art, she just wants to make money with her only fame.

And instigate the deep crew to support the director, stand up and inflict public opinion violence on him.

Keiko Matsumoto was stigmatized by this woman in this way, and her popularity plummeted in the hearts of movie fans.

In the end, I had no choice but to feel wronged and apologize, and hid temporarily to avoid the limelight.

Originally, after Ning Weimin came back, "The Man in the House on Fire" was also released. Although the box office of this movie barely met Shochiku's expectations.

Keiko Matsumoto is still amazingly charming in front of the camera of the movie.

Don't look at the pictures that are not too revealing, but the extremely high-level performance has won the affirmation of the film critics for her role, and it has also calmed down the hearts of many audiences.

So these negative news gradually faded away.

But I don't know if it's because Keiko Matsumoto's acting skills are too superb, Michiko Harada feels threatened again, and feels that there is another change in winning the award. Recently, she found a newspaper to repeat the old tricks.

Although there is no actual evidence, this method and the cooperation of director Fukasaku's recent public opinion, as well as the accusations of those who jumped out of the crew, are too similar to the last time, and it should not be just a coincidence.

Hearing Ishida Ryoko's words, Ning Weimin was furious.

After finally listening to it reluctantly, he couldn't help but question Ishida Ryoko, why didn't he tell him this kind of thing earlier.

However, he regretted it as soon as he asked this question, after all, he has no such obligation.

And he's not stupid either.

I also want to know that this kind of thing is related to the reputation of the actress, the reason why Ishida Ryoko will keep silent.

Even if Keiko Matsumoto didn't mean it, it was a kind of protection for Keiko Matsumoto.

He blamed others for this. It was really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, and he didn't know a good heart.

But what was even more unexpected was that Ryoko Ishida had a very high sense of morality, so he apologized to him immediately on the spot.

She said that although Matsumoto Keiko personally asked her to keep the secret, she could understand Ning Weimin's desire to protect Matsumoto Keiko, and felt that she had indeed ignored Ning Weimin's feelings.

And she was deeply ashamed of her cowardice and cowardice.

Of course, she also understands the cruelty of reality and how heavy a burden beauty is on a woman.

On the one hand, it must withstand the strict supervision of public opinion in morality.

On the other hand, we must also beware of eighteen unspoken rules to avoid becoming a plaything of the powerful.

She really felt that whether it was as an actress or as a friend, when Keiko Matsumoto encountered public opinion violence.

Everyone should stand up and speak up for it.

But she didn't actually, she just buried her head like an ostrich, and she was very sorry for the trust of the two of them.

Look, she actually put all the faults on herself.

So in the face of such a clear and kind person who is strict with himself.

Naturally, Ning Weimin felt even more embarrassed to bully him, and he felt more and more like an asshole just now.

For this reason, he also immediately apologized for his rudeness and impulsiveness, and said that Ryoko Ishida had done a good job, and that he and Keiko Matsumoto were lucky to have a friend like her.

It can only be said that there are still real white lotuses in this world.

Ryoko Ishida, the song is beautiful, and the person is even more beautiful.

It's a pity that she also has the same fate as most beauties.

Also failed to escape the curse of the prodigal son, and fell in love with someone who was not worthy of her love.

It leads to emotional misfortune, marriage failure, and so far, I have not been able to meet a good man.

that's too regretful.

…………

Just when Ning Weimin felt sorry for Matsumoto Keiko deeply and expressed emotion for the beauty of Ishida Ryoko.

Matsumoto Keiko, who was experiencing great mental pain and under tremendous mental pressure, missed Ning Weimin to the point where it couldn't be added.

Keiko Matsumoto hid in Nishi Azabu's apartment alone for three days.

However, the longer he waits, the more he will be ungrateful.

For nothing else, the storm of public opinion showed no signs of stopping, and bad news came one after another, making her almost breathless and unbearable.

However, this feeling of suffocation was not just caused by her aggrievedness for being slandered and slandered.

Nor does it come from the anger of fans, the fear of the imminent loss of fame and fortune.

Not even because he was betrayed by Michiko Harada.

There have always been open and secret struggles in the Japanese entertainment industry. Whether it is a director or an actor, sometimes it is inevitable to act despicably in order to fight for the opportunity to stand out.

Matsumoto Keiko is not the first person to encounter such a thing.

Since she became famous, this kind of human feelings and worldly conditions have long been seen a lot.

Knowing that in Vanity Fair, no one can avoid such suffering one day, and it is not because of these things that have been expected that they cannot bear it.

What she fears the most is the serious consequences, which are actually related to personal emotions.

Ning Weimin was the bet she couldn't afford to lose.

For a long time, when facing Ning Weimin, she always liked to report good news but not bad news, and she never talked much about her work and the entertainment industry.

It is because he is afraid that his star status will bring unnecessary pressure to Ning Weimin, which will have a negative impact on his life and work.

I'm also afraid that Ning Weimin will know the chaotic and unbearable side of the entertainment world and alienate himself.

She was afraid that all this would make their emotions that did not match well with their original age and identities, increase the instability of variables, and end the relationship between the two of them early.

Yes, she knew very well that a young man like Ning Weimin who was handsome, smart and capable, kind and pure, with a gentle temperament and a bright future was not something that a woman like her who was about to run out of youth could possess. of.

Like their current relationship is likely to be only temporary, just because of her beauty and star aura that still exists for a while.

In other words, the young Ning Weimin was probably just infatuated with her for a while.

Sooner or later the young man will leave to marry a wife and have children and live the kind of life most people want.

And he will only become a vague episode in his memory.

But it doesn't matter, because no matter how short the time with Ning Weimin is, it will allow her to find her past self.

Find that simple, natural, sensitive self.

To find the true love that I once thought was completely dead.

For so many years, she has been unknowingly paralyzed by the flashy life of luxury and money, and imprisoned by the noisy and restless upper class.

Her senses were blunted, her emotions lost, and she was on the verge of becoming a walking corpse on the brink of destruction.

However, she met Ning Weimin again, a young man who looked so much like her lost first love.Bring back all her lost feelings at once.

She will never forget the moment when they met for the first time, when they looked at each other with a sense of loss, it was filled with a sense of happiness that was slightly painful and sweet.

She couldn't resist this attraction, and she didn't want to resist.

She just wants to give it water and let it grow.

No matter how much you pay, even if you can only have this feeling for a day, it is worth it.

So she did not hesitate to give everything, just to let their love exist for a while longer.

She doesn't have much bargaining chips, it's nothing more than providing some help to Ning Weimin's career and giving him physical enjoyment as much as possible.

But in fact, things backfired. Now, just because she intervened in Ning Weimin's restaurant, it caused an uproar, and provided a new target for those who slandered her, which may affect Ning Weimin's beloved career.

Although they were all fabricated rumors, she really wasn't sure how much damage it would do to the newly opened Ginza Tan Palace.

Even less sure, what kind of final result will be if we wait any longer.

She also didn't dare to hope at all that Ning Weimin, who had encountered an innocent disaster, would treat all this objectively and calmly.

He's only in his twenties.

Although he is smart and mature enough, he is a young man who has just entered the society after all, and he has experienced too little wind and rain.

How could he face all this calmly?Bear the corresponding pressure?Not annoyed at all?Don't blame her?

How could he not mind these slanderous public opinion attacks, and still treat her as gently as before?
Matsumoto Keiko has given up any hope for this.

If you think about it differently, she can't do this.

So she was just waiting, waiting for the moment when Ning Weimin came to her and vented his anger and dissatisfaction to her.

She was almost waiting for Ning Weimin's appearance amidst sleepless nights and insomnia, thinking about how to make up and how to keep her love.

It's a coincidence that the two pots of geraniums that were placed randomly on the balcony and can be open all year round have also had problems recently.

For some unknown reason, insects were born, the leaves were gnawed into nets, the petals were wilted and yellowed, and even the stems and branches were trampled.

So looking at the two pots of wilting diseased flowers, Keiko Matsumoto couldn't help thinking wildly, flustered by the bad premonition.

As a result, I became more and more afraid of something.

Even though Keiko Matsumoto was already anxious like this, bad things still came to her door one after another.

At about ten o'clock in the evening on April 4, her contract agent Akira Okamoto actually called her and brought her another bad news.

It turned out that Keiko Matsumoto had already negotiated the film salary, and the NHK TV station that invited her to play the heroine of the Daga drama "The Waves of Spring" broke the appointment.

Just now, the producer of NHK's Dahe drama met with Keiko Matsumoto's agent, Akira Okamoto, and asked them to unconditionally withdraw the signed contract.

The other party claimed that in view of the recent public opinion turmoil, and out of consideration for the ratings of the new drama, NHK's management committee decided to choose someone else as the heroine.

This is a hard order, and the producer has no way to resist it, so he can only obey. I hope Keiko Matsumoto will forgive me and don't make things difficult for him.

So Akira Okamoto can only discuss with Keiko Matsumoto, whether or not to leave it at that.

Although the other party's request was very outrageous and rude, he didn't even want to bear the legal responsibility and financial compensation for breaking the contract.

But the problem is that NHK TV is similar to Japan's national TV station, and the type of Dahe drama it is good at.

Akira Okamoto still suggested that Keiko Matsumoto should endure his anger for a while, and not be forced to compete.

After all, in the long run, if you want to participate in the Red and White Song Concert equivalent to the "Japanese Spring Festival Gala" and star in a high-profile Dahe drama, then you can't get around the hurdle of NHK TV...

To be honest, after Matsumoto Keiko heard the bad news, she had no idea what Akira Okamoto was talking about.

Although she was still holding the microphone, fine sweat dripped from the palm of her hand holding the microphone tightly, and fine sweat dripped from her forehead.

She was completely dazed, completely dazed.

Not for anything else, just because this Dahe drama is too important to her.

This is a [-]-episode heroine TV series based on the original novels of Sonoko Sugimoto's "The Corridor of Hades" and "Madame Zhennu", written by Johiro Nakajima.

With a huge investment, NHK TV intends to show the appearance of all living beings in the Meiji and Taisho periods through this TV series.

The heroine Kawakami Sadano in the play is not only a beauty who can turn all living beings upside down, but also a famous and legendary geisha from the Meiji to Showa years in Japan, and the first Japanese actress.

She was sold to a geisha parlor since she was a child, became famous at the age of 14, and later became the concubine of Prime Minister Ito Hirobumi.

Unwilling to be reconciled to her fate, she decided to marry the second-rate actor Kawakami Otojiro, and Ito had to let go.

Later, Kawakami Zhennu helped her husband become famous in the Western world.

After her husband's death, she fell in love with electric power magnate Fukuzawa Momosuke and helped him build the Kisogawa Dam, but she refused to be his concubine.

In short, no matter in terms of appearance and personality, or the experience of acting career.

This Kawakami Zhennu has many similarities with Matsumoto Keiko.

It doesn't even need to be a play, Matsumoto Keiko can act in her usual style and true colors.

Even the screenwriter of this TV series believes that she is naturally convincing in this role, and she can easily win the "Academy Award".

There is no doubt that there is no better opportunity than this.

Originally, Keiko Matsumoto was likely to become popular again because of this drama.

But now, this opportunity is gone...

It also means that Keiko Matsumoto's career may have come to an end.

In the future, she will not be able or possible to help Ning Weimin in her career.

Or save him the unfavorable situation for Ginza Altar Palace.

Just thinking about it, Keiko Matsumoto cried unconsciously.

Then hot tears dripped down, the tears were heavy, and fell on the message paper in front of the phone with a "pop", as if the paper had been pierced through...
