Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 36

"Ice cream commercials are settled, let's talk about Suntory's new project, they designated dance as the theme of the commercial, right?" Hanyu Hideki asked.

"That's right." Hirohashi Asako nodded.

"Let me see the product introduction."

"This is the product introduction, and there are samples."

Yoshioka Shota took out a document and three bottles of drink samples from the side.

Hanyu Hideki looked through the product information first, and then looked at the three drink samples.

They are all fruit juice drinks, and the three bottles are cherry, white peach, and grape flavors.

However, compared to the taste, what attracts Hanyu Hideki's attention is the pink and tender, extremely girly packaging, and the name of the drink that starts with "cute".

From the packaging style and name, we can see the target group of Suntory's drink, girls and young female buyers.

"Lovely Cherry Drink...Lovely White Peach..."

Saying the name of the drink in his mouth, Hideki Hanyu thought quickly.

It didn't take long for the three partners to wait, and a series of advertising ideas for this product came into Hideki Hanyu's mind.

He looked at the three partners, and began to arrange tasks in a confident tone.

"I'm in charge of the commercial song and dance, and Ito-san will cooperate with me in the shooting. Let's first record a trial version for Suntory."

"I will definitely cooperate."

Seeing that Nobusuke Ito agreed, he looked at Asako Hirohashi, "Asako-san can't be idle in the afternoon, there is something I need Asako-san to communicate with Dentsu and Suntory."

"Hanyu-san, please tell me."

"I have an idea about an advertisement, and I need the cooperation of Suntory. I hope that through media promotion, I will select three amateur girls as the leading actors in the advertisement, and use the gimmick of the selection to create momentum for the advertisement in advance."

When Hideki Hanyu said this, he stood up and pressed his hands on the table with a serious expression.

"Since I have decided to do it, I will do my best. I want to use these two advertisements to let Quan Nihong know that Cloud Picture is coming!"

After speaking, he waved his hand, "Let's act."

Then walk out of the meeting room first.

"Whoo~"

The moment Hanyu Hideki left, Ito Shinsuke couldn't help but heaved a deep sigh of relief.

"Asako-san, don't make Hanyu-san serious in the future, how can he have such an aura when he is young next year? The pressure is really too great."

Regarding Ito Shinsuke's words, Yoshioka Shota nodded in agreement.

"I don't even dare to scream anymore, but Hanyu-san like this is really trustworthy, as if nothing can trouble him."

"Time is tight. Let's act according to Hanyu-san's arrangement. Ito-san will prepare camera equipment, I will contact Dentsu and Suntory, and Yoshioka-san will go to Hakuhodo."

Although Hirohashi Asako only urged the two of them, she did not express her opinion, because she believed that Hanyu Hideki would not let her down.

……

At nine o'clock in the evening, the sky in Tokyo was shrouded in darkness. In the training room of Warner Pioneer who had already got off work, several founders of Yunying Pictures gathered.

The room they are in is the video tape playback room of the training room.

Shinsuke Ito was fiddling with the video player, and Hideki Hanyu took the opportunity to ask Asako Hirohashi and Shota Yoshioka about the progress of the work in the afternoon.

"We recommended Seiko Matsuda's proposal. Hakuhodo and Morinaga Dairy agreed. Hakuhodo promised to invite Seiko Matsuda and give us at least three days for recording and shooting."

Shota Yoshioka talked about the progress of the ice cream commercial.

"Is it only three days, can't it be more?" Hideki Hanyu was a little dissatisfied.

"Hanyu-san, that is the most popular female idol right now, it would be nice to have three days." Shota Yoshioka felt helpless.

"I used to be an idol too, and I still have time to take the driver's license test and learn to draw." Hideki Hanyu retorted.

Yoshioka Shota rolled his eyes angrily, "Hanyu-san, it's better not to talk about this embarrassing past."

"Okay, recording and filming, half the time for one person, Ito-san is okay?"

Shinsuke Ito, who was fiddling with the player, replied loudly, "No problem."

"Okay, how is Asako-san doing?" Hanyu Hideki asked Hirohashi Asako again.

"Denttsu and Suntory both think it's a good idea to select an amateur female lead actor across the country, but we can only confirm it after seeing Hanyu-san's commercial song and choreography." Hirohashi Asako replied.

At this time, Shinsuke Ito just finished preparing for the broadcast. "I'm ready, let it go now?"

"Ito-san, let's start." Hanyu Hideki signaled.

Nobusuke Ito started the player, and before it started, he turned his head to Shota Yoshioka and Asako Hirohashi with an expression that you are watching a good show.

"Be prepared, both of you, the picture may be very shocking in a while."

Hirohashi Asako and the two didn't know what this meant, and Ito Shinsuke didn't continue talking, and they could only stare at the curtain.

Light music sounded, and the screen appeared.

"puff……"

Shota Yoshioka, who had just picked up a bottle of water and took a sip, sprayed it out immediately after seeing the screen.

"This..." Hirohashi Asako beside her was also full of surprise.

On the screen projected on the curtain, there was a plot performed by three girls. The acting skills were quite simple, and the shooting location was still in the training room.

The reason why the three of them can see the plot is that in addition to the music, they can also hear the narration by Ito Shinsuke. The main reason is that the three girls are isolated by the people around them because of their appearance, personality, and good grades.

Of course, the official version has no narration, and the main trial version is too simple, worrying that viewers will not understand the plot.

As for what caused the two of them to have such a big reaction, it wasn't because of the plot. Of the three girls on the screen, two of them were female trainees from the training room.

As for the other one?
The two turned their heads to look at Hideki Hanyu who was expressionless beside him, but the corners of his mouth were twitching.

"Hanyu-san is very suitable for girls to dress up. If he debuted as a girl idol, he might be popular." Yoshioka Shota joked.

Although Hirohashi Asako didn't speak, she could tell from the expression that she tried her best to suppress that she really wanted to laugh.

"Hey, do you think I'd like to? The girl I'm looking for temporarily won't be able to perform the next dance without me." Hideki Hanyu couldn't explain.

If there is a choice, ghosts are willing to wear women's clothing. Judging by the appearance of those two, this matter will probably become a lifetime of dark history.

After the video is brought to Dentsu for viewing, it must be destroyed!
"Is that so? Isn't it Hanyu-san who likes women's clothing?" Shota Yoshioka pretended to be skeptical.

"Bastard! Who would like women's clothing in the first place! I have made such a big sacrifice for starting a business, please pay attention to the key points!" Hanyu Hideki shouted angrily.

At this moment, the plot on the broadcast screen also began to change. Under the introduction of the narration by Ito Shinsuke, the three girls decided to participate in the performance competition held by the school together.

The decision of the three girls was not recognized, but received negative comments from the people around them.

But they still persisted, learned to make up and dress up, chose clothes, and finally stood on the stage amidst boos.

On the screen, the three of them turned their backs to the camera, posing in a triangle position led by the women's clothing Hideki.

Accompanied by the music, twist your body behind your hands, and raise your right arm from bottom to top like a pointer.

Then turn around with the music, the lovely dance officially begins,
And at this time, in the screen where there was only music, finally Hideki's singing voice rang out.

I love myself, what's wrong
are you jealous of me
Say I'm ashamed, weird

I can't hear it, your bad comment

put on your favorite dress

Do your favorite makeup

Tie a regular half up hair

go out
Bring a parasol, even if you're alone
very happy too

Chirp!I'm so sorry for being so cute

I'm so sorry I was born

Chirp!I'm so sorry for being so cute

I'm trying so hard I'm so sorry

Chirp!I'm so sorry for being so cute

so sorry girl

It's very hot!deserve it!
……

Accompanied by the music, the dance of the three on the screen became more and more lovely.

Although it is not neat enough, it is also obvious that because of the short training time, it is often impossible to keep up with the rhythm of the music.

Especially the two girls behind Hideki Hanyu obviously had a limited level, and they all relied on Hideki Hanyu to lead them through the dance.

It can be paired with confident and cute lyrics, and with the dance movements of holding your face with your hands, making a heart-to-heart gesture in front of you, putting your hands together or akimbo, the whole picture is a kawaii mess.

Even Hirohashi Asako, who usually takes the route of a strong woman, is about to be seduced by the heart of a girl who has been dusty for many years.

At the end of the ad, the three girls did not get the expected recognition or cheers, and the guys who became angry attacked them more violently.

But for the three girls who have found self-confidence, they no longer care about other people's opinions as much as they did at the beginning, and they encouraged each other to walk off the stage.

At the end of the commercial, a table with Suntory's cute drinks appeared on the screen, and the narration sounded.

"Cute and juicy, I'm sorry for being so cute."

At this point, the trial segment is completely over.

"In such a short period of time, you can create commercial songs and dances that fit the product, as well as creative plots. Although Hanyu-san's women's clothing has given me a big impact, I still have to say that Hanyu-san is a genius!"

When Shota Yoshioka made an objective evaluation, he did not forget to emphasize Hideki Hanyu's women's clothing.

Hearing this, Hanyu Hideki gritted his molars tightly, knowing that this was a difficult situation.

Hirohashi Asako looked sideways at Hanyu Hideki with surprise and curiosity on her face.

"Is there a girl living in Hanyu-san's heart? How can he create such strong and confident songs and stories that capture the girl's mind?"

"It's not such an exaggeration to live with a girl."

Hideki Hanyu loudly denied that it was enough to wear women's clothes, and if he was misunderstood that there was a girl in his heart, he would not be able to wash it off even if he jumped into the Pacific Ocean.

"It's not an exaggeration at all. It can really touch the hearts of ordinary girls. After all, I was an ordinary girl once, and I also fantasized about saying the words in the lyrics to those annoying people."

Hirohashi Asako asked curiously, "Hayu-san, does this song have a name?"

"It's called 'Sorry for being so cute'." Hanyu Hideki said the name of the song in later generations.

　The commercial story is my original creation, and the song "I'm Sorry I'm So Cute" is a cover version of "Nadeko Takamine".
