For a whole month, Matsumoto Keiko didn't meet Ning Weimin.
During this period, due to the backwardness of China Telecom's infrastructure and the filming of movie locations, etc.
There are only a handful of opportunities for them to contact each other by phone.
Loneliness is like a ghost that has been hungry for a hundred years, wrapping its long tongue tightly around Matsumoto Keiko's throat, almost strangling her to death.
The New Year's Eve day when they parted ways seems to have become a memorial to love.
To make matters worse, even career began to suffer.
Just after Ning Weimin left Tokyo, director Fukasaku began to harass Matsumoto Keiko again, trying to pull her into his bed.
And after being rejected by Matsumoto Keiko with clear attitude several times.
This guy has changed from his usual gentle and gentle temperament, and now he is soft-spoken and hard-working.
He actually turned into a scoundrel and began to use his filming power to target Qingzi during the filming process.
Wanting to use this to force her to submit.
Because Matsumoto Keiko couldn't avoid it and couldn't bear it, she eventually had a serious conflict with the director on the set.
This incident even went so far as to alarm the Shochiku headquarters.
Later, with the mediation of President Junichi Omoto, who rushed to Hokkaido, the two parties reluctantly cooperated and completed the location shooting as planned.
But the follow-up to this incident is not over yet. After returning to Tokyo half a month ago, the media soon spread the news that Matsumoto Keiko and the director were at odds.
For a time, this incident caused quite a stir in Japan.
Even though Shochiku Kaisha and Matsumoto Keiko's office tried their best to publicize the matter, and Matsumoto Keiko herself came forward to clarify the matter, they tried their best to calm the matter.
But director Fukasaku took advantage of the situation and stabbed Keiko Matsumoto in the back.
When this guy was interviewed, he deliberately avoided talking about the terms of the contract and was only obsessed with Matsumoto Keiko's refusal to take large-scale shots.
It was revealed to reporters that this was the root cause of their conflict.
Although his sanctimonious speech was high-sounding, it seemed that he didn't say a bad word.
But the implication is that it hints to the public that Matsumoto Keiko has become a person who does not respect the script and the director.
A movie queen who is no longer dedicated to her job and just wants to earn a living based on her fame.
Perhaps there was an intention to coerce the crew and increase the remuneration.
So the next day, director Fukasaku told President Omoto that he made a drunken mistake and apologized for it.
However, all efforts were ruined by Fukasaku's "unintentional" remarks.
In addition, due to their different status in the industry, conflicts between actors and directors will not give them an upper hand in popular support.
Many members of the crew of "The Man on Fire", weighing their own interests, took the director's position, forming strong evidence.
Especially Michiko Harada, completely turned against her.
As a result, there was no trace of dirty water left in the pot, and all of it was poured on Matsumoto Keiko's head, which triggered one-sided criticism of her from the media and fans.
President Xi Jinping could only consider immediate interests, and tried his best to make peace with the film in order to keep the film's box office.
In the end, Keiko Matsumoto had no choice but to apologize publicly in the media.
This not only caused her popularity to drop and was criticized by fans, but also made her extremely angry and seriously ill.
To put it bluntly, during this period of time, Keiko Matsumoto, who was waiting hard for her lover in Japan, was like Wang Baochuan, who was keeping a cold kiln.
I have gone through many hardships in life, been tricked, and suffered betrayal. Life is too hard.
Fortunately, she also has a very interesting friend beside her, although she has only known her for a short time.
Under the careful comfort and care of Ishida Ryoko, she hid in a small apartment in Nishi-Azabu, finally avoiding the media's tracking, and her health gradually improved.
And she missed Ning Weimin even more, longing for his shoulders and hugs.
As a result, we have to wait until March 6th.
On this day, she finally received the news about Ning Weimin.
It's just that Ning Weimin didn't return to her as soon as he promised, he just called her.
"I am Ning Weimin, am I Qingzi?"
"Ah, it's me, where are you?"
Keiko Matsumoto asked eagerly.
She had just finished lunch and fell asleep while watching TV at noon.
I was a little drowsy when I was woken up by the phone, but when I heard the voice on the phone, I suddenly woke up.
"Oh, did I wake you up? Are you taking a lunch break?"
Ning Weimin said as if he noticed something strange in Matsumoto Keiko's voice.
"I just took a nap on the sofa. What about you? Where are you? It's very noisy on the phone. Are you in the telephone building in Beijing?"
"No, no, I've returned to Tokyo. I'm at the Sumitomo Bank in Ginza. I'll withdraw the money."
"You're back in Tokyo. When did you arrive? That's great. But... why didn't you notify me in advance?"
"I'm sorry. It's really because of the inconvenience of contact that I couldn't tell you in time. The plane arrived at noon today. I took my colleagues from China to settle in the dormitory in Ginza and called you right away."
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything else. I just wanted to drive to pick you up."
"I understand. In fact, this is what I'm looking forward to. However, I am traveling with dozens of colleagues this time, and they know almost nothing about the situation in Tokyo. Whether it is life or work, they all need help.
.So I can’t leave when you come, I have to act as their guide. Speaking of this, I want to sincerely say I’m sorry. I’m afraid I have to live in the dormitory these days to help them solve the problem at any time.
question……"
"Ah! You mean... you won't come back today? We can't meet?" Keiko Matsumoto's tone became anxious.
"I'm sorry. I promised to look for you as soon as I come back, but I'm really sorry. Although I really miss you, but the responsibility lies, they can only rely on me here. I have to be responsible for them. I hope you can understand...
"
"No, you misunderstood again. I understand, I just want to see you. I want to see you very much. I miss you every day. So you...you...can't you just take some time out? Just an hour, or half a day.
Hours……"
Keiko Matsumoto was so eager and her hesitant tone was like a beggar for love.
It seemed that she was so fragile and helpless.
In this way, even if he was caught off guard and even if he exercised all kinds of restraint, Ning Weimin couldn't help but feel soft.
He was reluctant to postpone the meeting.
"Of course it's no problem if it takes an hour. But... I'm in Ginza. If I go to find you, in terms of time..."
"It's okay, I'll drive to you."
At this point, Matsumoto Keiko couldn't wait even more, but her voice was obviously full of anticipation.
Under this situation, Ning Weimin's compassion was ready to move, and he had to agree, otherwise he himself would have trouble sleeping and eating.
"Okay then, where would be a better place for us to meet?"
"The restaurant and bar of Mitsui Garden Hotel. Do you remember? That was us..."
"I remember the time we went to watch the sunset on the beach together."
"Great, I'm so happy. Wait for me, see you later!"
Matsumoto Keiko's voice before hanging up the phone was as cheerful as a singing bird.
Holding the receiver in his hand, Ning Weimin couldn't help but be deeply affected, feeling happy and relieved.
He likes to see this and enjoys it.
This is not surprising, I am afraid that no matter which man is lucky enough to obtain such a woman's desire, he will be very proud.
However, what Ning Weimin didn't know was a scene of huge contrast.
If he sees it, he will go berserk and find out the reason at all costs.
Because in fact, when Keiko Matsumoto was talking to him on the phone, her eyes became moist without even realizing it.
When she hung up the phone and moved, her emotions immediately lost control.
While covering my mouth, a few tears fell into the tea cup next to the phone...
