Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 522 It’s really her
"Deng Jiaming is here too?"

With such doubts, Hanyu Hideki arrived at the Budokan.

After getting off the bus, Hanyu Hideki looked far away, thinking that when the Tokyo Dome opens to the public next year, there will be new locations to choose from whether it is performances or other activities.

Not only is the martial arts hall too close to the toilets, but the facilities inside are also too old and can no longer meet the ever-changing needs.

Entering the venue, he quickly arrived at the rehearsal place.

Hanyu Hideki did not go to an acquaintance immediately, but first observed the rehearsal on site.

Models wearing regular clothes rehearsed their moves on the T stage under the command of on-site staff. Of course, there were also designers of each clothing item who explained the effects they wanted to the models on the spot.

All in all, the place was very busy.

Hideki Hanyu just watched for a while, and when he was about to check out anyone he knew, a young girl wearing a sweatshirt and jeans and holding a microphone walked onto the T stage.

As the music sounded, Hanyu Hideki's eyes lit up instantly.

"President! Good afternoon!"

There is another thing, that is, looking back at the injury of Takeshi Kaneshiro in "Star Creation" at this time, it may be a good thing for their Gemini.

Kobirimaki Kaoru, a singer who was launched by Sony in 1985 and has always been tepid, became famous in one fell swoop with this song.

Hideki Hanyu likes the animation of "City Hunter" very much, and he also likes the theme song, but looking at the person singing the song on the stage, he was somewhat confused.

Thinking of this, Hanyu Hideki waited for the rehearsal and singing of Hidetaki Makihoru to end, and then found the on-site supervisor Imichitani who was giving orders to his subordinates.

Hideki Hanyu waved his hand, "Okay, I don't mean to blame you."

Because he was so familiar with this song.

It can be regarded as the pinnacle of CITY-POP in this era.

Now when Ichitani left, he did not forget to tell Hanyu Hideki.

"President..."

"President, Kohinai Maki Kaoru is just one of the guests. The opening performance of this year's TGC is actually our SHINee group. They have finished their rehearsal and left."

Looking at it this way, they are all old rivals.

"President!"

Of course Takeshi Kaneshiro and Takuya Kimura are excellent, but they have not debuted yet, and the Gemini group is still a plan of Yunshang Entertainment.

The combined number of fans in Takeshi Kaneshiro and Takuya Kimura's fan clubs is only 200,000, but the number of fans in SHINee's fan clubs has already exceeded 900,000.

He still likes this singer very much. Besides the company-level issues, with his status, there is no need to show shame to an ordinary singer.

As long as the single is released, it will definitely win the championship.

After the employees left with a wink, the on-site supervisor Imitani came up to apologize.

Hearing SHINee's name, Hanyu Hideki thought that Kaneda VII was willing to let celebrities perform, which obviously showed some confidence in the influence of TGC.

If Hideki Hanyu remembers correctly, Kohira Maki's career reached its peak due to this, and she appeared in the Kohaku Uta Battle in 1987.

"I understand, you can continue working." Hanyu Hideki said.

It was the theme song for the TV animation version of Hojo Tsukasa's manga "City Hunter" that was aired on Neon TV in April this year. It became very popular as soon as it was released.

Imaichi answered, "Michael Jackson is coming to Neon for a concert next week. It seems to be a collaboration in this regard."

Hideki Hanyu asked, "Do you know what cooperation is?"

As the producer of Cloud Cinema, why would a Sony singer be allowed to perform on stage?

The IP of "City Hunter" belongs to Shueisha, and Bandai is responsible for the production and distribution of peripheral derivatives. Even the TV animation producer Sunrise Co., Ltd. is also a subsidiary of Bandai.

After all, the SHINee group, both from a creative camp, relied on Miike Takashi's TV drama linkage and Chuck and Asuka's tailor-made songs. It can be said that they became famous as soon as they debuted.

Since Kohiruumaki Kahoru was able to attend the rehearsal, she will definitely perform in the official fashion show tomorrow.

Veterans of both sexes imitate the way they perform on pulleys.

Even without the need for cloud-based operations, Asahi Shimbun took the initiative to express its hope that SHINee will be the singer for the entrance song to Koshien this summer.

Hearing that it was Asako Hirohashi's decision, and it was related to Michael Jackson's concert, and it was probably a deal that was made in the end, he didn't ask any more questions. After all, he still believed in Asako Hirohashi's ability.

I estimate that by next year, I might be able to see the popular idol on TGC’s T stage.

And his appearance also made all the staff on site bow and salute.

"Love, Please Don't Disappear" sung by Kohirai Maki Kahoru.

The idol craze that started in the 1970s seems to have exploded around SHINee.

Hanyu Hideki nodded slightly and didn't say much.

And if you dig deeper, this song is the theme song of "City Hunter".

"President, I didn't know you were coming and I didn't greet you. I'm very sorry."

Imichitani noticed Hanyu Hideki's confusion and quickly explained, "That's not true. This is President Hirohashi's arrangement. It seems to be some kind of cooperation with Sony."

Even Kohinai Kaoru, who had just finished her performance and stepped off the stage, quickly came over and respectfully said hello.

After saying that, he looked at Kohinai Kahoru and said, "What's going on with her? Isn't she a singer from Sony? Is she going to dance to Yunshang Music?"

On the other hand, among the SHINee group, Masaharu Fukuyama, Yosuke Eguchi, Takao Osawa, Mitsuhiro Oikawa, Kazuki Kitamura, Kazuki Sawamura, which one of them can't beat each other individually?
The most important thing is that the Gemini group is just a plan, and the SHINee group is the group that Yunshang is currently favoring.

Their propaganda is overwhelming. When you turn on the TV, it's all their advertisements. After the TV series is broadcast on cloud satellite TV, it will be replayed on wireless commercial TV stations as an exception.

In order to make the SHINee group a cash cow, the resources invested by Yunshang Department are far beyond what the Gemini group can match.

Under such circumstances, it is destined that Gemini will not be able to dilute SHINee’s resources after their debut next year.

But now that their debut has been postponed from last year, SHINee's popularity has already stabilized, and the Cloud Series does not need to continue to invest as much resources as it does now.

By then the situation of the Gemini group will definitely be much better than it is now.

In fact, Hanyu Hideki's arrangement for the Gemini group was also considering another possibility, a possibility that he could not tell others.

In the original time and space, what should be popular now is actually Johnny & Associates' Hikari Genji group.

This group was also at its peak when they debuted, but after enjoying the brightest light of the neon idols, they seemed to have exhausted the neon audience's enthusiasm for the idols.

After them, the idol fell into a long "period of silence."

Kimura Takuya's SMAP group had a very difficult time after their debut.

Nowadays, GENJI has been replaced by SHINee from Yunshang Entertainment, but Hideki Hanyu does not think that the general trend of idols being "silent" will be changed.

The neon music scene of the 1990s belonged to electronic dance music, rock bands, and popular "singing girls" who sang one after another while I appeared on stage.

What about the Gemini group after SHINee?
Hideki Hanyu doesn't think that adding Takeshi Kaneshiro to Takuya Kimura will change the general trend of history. He just hopes that the Gemini combination will not be as hard as the original SMAP combination. After all, even cloud entertainment cannot develop against the times.

Just when Hanyu Hideki was thinking about the future development history, suddenly a voice from next to him sounded.

"Boss, I finally see you."

Hideki Hanyu turned his head and immediately saw Deng Jiaming's familiar face.

He immediately smiled and said, "How come you, the boss of the company, brought the models to Neon yourself? Didn't Luo Zhaohui hire an agent for the model company?"

"Forget it, boss. A-Hui and I had a fierce fight over who would lead the team to Neon. I finally drank and beat A-Hui, the one who jumped on the street. I thought I could see the boss when we arrived in Neon. , but I didn’t know until I arrived in Neon that the boss had gone to Xiangjiang.”

"Ha ha!"

Seeing Deng Jiaming's lively expression and wretched look on his face, Hanyu Hideki was amused and laughed out loud, "That's why I didn't see Luo Zhaohui when I went to Xiangjiang this time, otherwise he would definitely laugh at you."

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, I have met the boss now. They say there are many fun places in Tokyo. I have only recently seen the world since I came here. How about I invite the boss to have some fun tonight?"

Deng Jiaming's expression changed and he immediately invited Hanyu Hideki.

Naturally, Hideki Hanyu had no interest in fooling around with the waiting guests, so he said directly, "I'm still treating you in Tokyo. Just have fun. When you get back, I'll sum up the expenses and I'll reimburse you for everything. Even if I treat you."

Deng Jiaming immediately said, "Although Tokyo is good, the consumption is also scary. Now I have to thank the boss."

Hideki Hanyu said, "Okay, since you are leading a team to work, don't keep thinking about having fun. You brought a few models this time. Where will they be?"

Deng Jiaming pointed to the backstage, "I brought three models with me this time, and they are all preparing for the meeting backstage."

Hearing this, Hideki Hanyu looked back at the T stage, wanting to see the level of the models Deng Jiaming brought this time.

The modeling company established by Luo Zhaohui and Deng Jiaming always feels like a temporary team, although he was able to enter the TGC model selection due to his connections.

But even with him, the review of "Cloud·Fashion" magazine would not be relaxed, and I thought that no one would be selected in the end.

But he didn't expect that three models could pass the review of "Cloud·Fashion" magazine and successfully stand on the T stage of the TGC fashion show.

However, when Hanyu Hideki looked at it this way, he didn't see the Xiangjiang models brought by Deng Jiaming, but instead saw many familiar faces.

First of all, wasn't the person who walked over with his chest trembling, Chikako Aoyama, who had a one-night stand with him before?

After signing with Yunshang Entertainment, this girl is still gaining popularity in the modeling industry, so it is natural for her to continue participating in TGC.

When this woman walked to the front of the catwalk, she clearly saw Hideki Hanyu, and immediately gave Hideki Hanyu a meaningful look.

The scumbag immediately understood and thought about whether to take the other party back tonight.

But then, he saw Suzuki Kyoka also appeared. Why did this girl come to the catwalk again if she hadn't prepared well for her role as Asuka Kazama in Sassy Girl?

However, the TGC show only lasts for one day, so there is no need to delay anything.

When Suzuki Kyoka found Hanyu Hideki, she waved generously.

Hanyu Hideki did not respond, but thought of another thing.

The male lead of Sassy Girl was also decided, and Touaki Karasawa was finally chosen to play the doormat.

Hanyu Hideki has nothing to say about this. Although he liked Cha Tae-hyun's acting in his previous life, he really can't find Cha Tae-hyun now.

So as long as the casting is not too outrageous, anyone can be used.

After Tobuaki Karasawa starred as Rei Mizusaku in "Boys Over Flowers", he became popular in Asia as a member of F4. After F4 disbanded, he served as the protagonist of the cloud video special photo drama "Armor Warriors".

Now that he has joined the cast of "My Sassy Girl", his popularity will undoubtedly surge.

After Kyoka Suzuki walked backstage, Hideki Hanyu saw a few familiar girls.

For example, a beauty with long black hair and straight hair named Mizuno Maki wearing a white skirt.

His most profound impression of Mizuno Maki was that her husband was a member of the Self-improvement Party from the Mitsubishi Foundation and had been elected to the House of Representatives many times.

To put it bluntly, it is the upper-level power cultivated by large financial groups.

Although Hanyu Hideki's current body is far from that of the consortium, he has inherited some of Tohoku Energy's upper-level power after winning the Tohoku Energy.

Many of the people he visited last year were supported by Northeast Energy.

And with the growth of the cloud type and elf type, it is inevitable to have these powers.

Especially the Elf family, which has purchased and built factories in various places in Neon, relying on capital coverage, has also formed its own power.

However, what makes Hideki Hanyu interesting is that when he was watching the news, Maki Mizuno had been selected as this year's Toho Cinderella, but now he was sent to TGC to catwalk.

It can be seen that Dongbao also wants to use the TGC platform to help its artists gain popularity.

After Maki Mizuno left the field, Hideki Hanyu watched for a while.

Until he felt a little bored, he decided to ask someone to go backstage to see if Chikako Aoyama, who had just given him a look, was finished.

If he is done with his work, he can take the beauty and leave early.

But at this moment, Deng Jiaming, who had been following him, suddenly reminded him, "Boss, the people I brought are coming on stage. The one in the white skirt who just came on stage, and the two behind him."

Hearing this, Hideki Hanyu glanced at the stage casually.

The girl in the white skirt mentioned by Deng Jiaming looks about seventeen or eighteen years old. She does have a good figure and appearance, but she is also a common beauty in the entertainment industry.

Moreover, Hanyu Hideki didn't know this girl, so he didn't take it to heart and continued to look at the second girl.

Like the first girl, she has a good figure and appearance, but is also unfamiliar.

Just when Hideki Hanyu thought there would be no surprises, his eyes fell on the third girl on stage.

Then, he thought there would be no surprise, but he got an unexpected surprise.

"A Ming, what's the name of the third girl?"

When Deng Jiaming heard this, he immediately answered with a smile.

"The boss is really classy. He immediately discovered our best model. She is seventeen years old and has just graduated from the fifth form.

Boss, you may not look at her age, but she already has several years of part-time experience, and she is beautiful and eye-catching. It will be very troublesome for us to sign her.

Not only did we give her a signing fee, but we also promised to let her participate in TGC, so she signed a short-term contract with us.

But when she participated in the review, the editor-in-chief took one look and announced that she had passed, which was indeed sharp..."

Seeing that Deng Jiaming kept talking nonsense, Hanyu Hideki couldn't help but interrupted, "I asked you your name, I didn't ask you to talk so much."

"Boss, sorry...Sorry, I talked too much. Her name is Li Jiaxin."

"It is indeed her..."
