Watanabe Manyumi is not so naive that she cannot distinguish between polite words and sincere words.
However, she would not declare in her heart that she would have no contact with the combustion system in the future. In the plastics industry, there are no eternal enemies.
Even so, she knew better that if the day came that she really had to deal with Ikuo Suho... There was never a free lunch in the world, but Ikuo Suho's lunch must be extremely expensive.
However, asking for help must come at a price, something Watanabe Manyumi has understood since she was a child.
When it comes to dealing with someone, she will also weigh the pros and cons.
It's not scary to have to pay a price to get something, but the scary thing is that no matter what you do, it won't help.
Ohato Yokichi thought through the inside story, understood how bad the previous situation was, and how important Iwahashi Shinichi's role was in it, so he praised Iwahashi Shinichi to Watanabe Mayumi.
The thing in the industry is to take advantage of the situation.
But what Shinichi Iwahashi dismantled was the trick of people like Ikuo Shubo.
On one side, Watanabe Manyumi accepted Ohri Yokichi's praise for Iwahashi Shinichi, while on the other side, she protected him as she had promised to Iwahashi Shinichi.
After reconciling with Ikuo Shubo, the matter came to an end. Watanabe Wan Yumi put aside this confrontation. Unknown friends or enemies, as long as they haven't happened yet, put them aside. The important thing is the present.
I came to visit Yokichi Ohsato this time because of the movie "Kitchen" produced by her agency.
Needless to say, the heroine must be Inamura Izumi. During the previous trip to Osaka, Ishihara of the Cosmos Theater Company helped negotiate a peace. Watanabe Manyumi sent the script to Umezawa Tomio's theater company and asked him to read the script. After persuading him several times, the final decision was finally made.
Fumio Umezawa plays the role of a transgender mother.
This role can be said to be the core character and the most important thing.
It wasn't until Tomio Umezawa nodded in agreement that Watanabe Manyumi breathed a sigh of relief.
As for the male lead Yuichi, it was not that difficult to choose. Watanabe Manyumi's agency organized a small audition. Amuse's Ohato Yokichi found out about it and also sent newcomers from his company over for interviews.
Finally, the male lead selected was a newcomer from amuse.
His name is Masaharu Fukuyama.
Watanabe Manyumi and Ohato Yokichi were killing time chatting about DreamseTrue. After a while, the manager led a young man over.
The young man is tall and has well-proportioned bones. He is standing behind an agent of medium build, making him stand taller and taller.
"President, Watanabe-san."
The agent greeted the two people who were chatting happily, "Fushan-kun is here."
Amuse held an actor audition for ordinary people last year, and Masaharu Fukuyama made his debut through this audition. He was not yet 20 years old, was born in the countryside of Nagasaki, and worked as a salaryman for a few months after graduating from high school.
Masaharu Fukuyama has only been in the industry for a few months, and his only experience as an actor so far is in the movie "Just 5G" starring Yasuko Tomita, a senior from the same agency, in which he played a small role.
After being introduced by his manager, Masaharu Fukuyama, his own president, and the president whom he met for the first time bowed and said hello.
It was not Wan Yumi Watanabe who decided on Masaharu Fukuyama to play the male lead, but director Jun Ichikawa.
Originally, Watanabe Manyumi thought that Inamura Izumi was an inexperienced newcomer. When it came to choosing the male lead, she thought of using someone with some acting experience so that it would be easier to bring Inamura Izumi into the play.
However, Jun Ichikawa held the opposite opinion and preferred inexperienced newcomers.
In "Kitchen", the male and female protagonists are the kind of people who pay attention to their own hearts, but don't care about the outside world. They seem to be able to get close, but it is difficult to really get close. Not only that, they are also "smooth and sophisticated".
The words are irrelevant.
In the words of Watanabe Mayumi, he is a young man with a bit of "unreliable" temperament.
Something close to unreliability is an atmosphere of uncertainty.
Since Izumi Inamura has no acting experience, Jun Ichikawa believes that instead of using an actor with solid acting skills to lead her into the role, it is better to use the somewhat unreliable youthfulness of a new actor and choose a newcomer similar to Izumi Inamura to play opposite her.
.
Watanabe Manyumi doesn't understand movies, but she's not the kind of boss who would dictate in areas she doesn't understand. Jun Ichikawa suggested this, and his partner Shunji Iwai also agreed. In this case, he listened to their opinions.
In the end, it was decided on Masaharu Fukuyama, who had only one movie acting experience.
After saying hello, Masaharu Fukuyama straightened up.
Watanabe Manyumi looked him over a little longer. This young man, whom Ichikawa took a liking to after auditioning for a role, had a handsome face, but at first glance it was not surprising, but after a closer look, he was
The more you look at it, the more interesting your face becomes.
Masaharu Fukuyama had just arrived in Tokyo from the countryside of Nagasaki not long ago. On a stage of self-expression like Tokyo, people who have just arrived in Beijing are like new actors who have just stepped onto the stage. From time to time, they show a hint of youthfulness similar to that of a new actor who has just debuted on the stage.
feel.
However, even though he looked young, he did not show any timidity.
Looking at him carefully, Watanabe Mayumi, although she doesn't understand movies, can understand why Ichikawa fell in love with him at first sight.
Masaharu Fukuyama was called over just to say hello to Watanabe Manyumi. After saying hello and completing the task, he stood waiting nearby.
While waiting, I looked curiously at the young female president who was chatting with President Osato.
He had only just entered the industry a few months ago and had just figured out the situation of his own agency. Masaharu Fukuyama knew very little about the entertainment industry. Even though his agent had said that he was the second daughter of Watanabe Producer, he had no idea about these things.
The impression of things is still vague.
Unable to figure it out, he looked away as if it had nothing to do with him. He waited for Yokichi Oto and Manyumi Watanabe to finish speaking and told the agent that they could leave. He bowed again and followed the agent out of the office.
"Anyway, I'll beg you, Mr. Fukuyama, for now."
After Masaharu Fukuyama went out with his agent, Yokichi Ohato said to Watanabe Manyumi again.
Watanabe Manyumi was polite and said casually: "However, this Fukuyama-kun does have the face of an actor."
"oh?"
Watanabe Manyumi explained, "It's very attractive and has a good overall temperament."
"That's true." Ohato Yokichi said with a smile, "I thought so when I got Fukuyama-kun's selection materials. So, I immediately decided to sign him."
Then, he mentioned it as an interesting thing, "However, Mr. Fukuyama's registration form was filled out in a vague way. He seemed to have just taken a chance and didn't have a strong intention to become an actor at first."
"According to him," Yokichi Osato became more and more interesting the more he talked, "the reason he wants to be an actor is because he can be in the limelight."
Watanabe Wan Yumi also laughed after hearing this, "Is that so?"
"About half of it is true, and the other part is a joke. Fukuyama-kun looks very cool, cute and joking." Yokichi Osato told Wan Yumi Watanabe, "This Fukuyama-kun resigned and came to Tokyo to become a musician.
.”
"Musician?" Watanabe Manyumi was a little interested.
"Fukuyama-kun participated in a band when he was in Nagasaki and worked for a while after graduating from high school. However, because he still wanted to do something related to music, he resigned and came to Tokyo."
"In the end, he made his debut as an actor."
"That's right." Yokichi Osato nodded, "The road for male soloists is not easy. Although Fukuyama-kun can write his own songs, his standard is still lacking, and his style is not popular now. It is not easy to get ahead."
As he spoke, he changed the topic and mentioned it half-jokingly, "Iwahashi-kun hasn't produced a male solo yet, has he? I'd rather hear what he thinks of the market for solo singers."
Watanabe Wan Yumi smiled, "I kind of want to hear it too."
Although Iwahashi Shinichi was not present, his presence was strong from beginning to end.
However, the topic did not continue and turned to other matters in the industry.
Ever since Watanabe Manyumi became independent, her relationship with Amuse has been quite good, and both parties are willing to exchange information that they can tell each other.
A new topic has opened.
Ohori Yokichi was busy with official matters, and Watanabe Mayumi was not much different, so they did not continue chatting for too long. After a while, she stood up and left.
In the afternoon, Watanabe Manyumi also made an appointment to visit Producer Fujimoto of TV Asahi in order to discuss the prank show proposed by Shinichi Iwahashi.
For a large-scale production, the two of them had reached a consensus in advance to try to do one or two special programs on the TV station. Now, she went to discuss with the TV station with this as the goal.
dreamsetrue's album is a hit and its sales are considerable.
An album costs 2,800 yen. So far, the total sales of "lovegoeson" have exceeded 200,000 copies, with sales of nearly 600 million yen.
And this number is still increasing. With this popularity and sales momentum, in this era of long-term sales, it is by no means a fantasy to see this album on the charts all year round. The final sales volume will be at least over 500,000 copies.
Going higher is not a dream.
From the sales of 500,000 copies, the firm took various commissions. It can be said that DreamseTrue made a lot of money.
Whether it's investing in the movie "Kitchen" or producing a new prank show, it all depends on this money tree.
In addition, there are various royalties from dominating the radio on-demand charts and being popular in karaoke on-demand.
U-Miz's commission is not exaggerated and is considered quite moderate in the industry. Therefore, while Watanabe Wan Yumi is making a lot of money with DreamseTrue's ability to attract money, the three members of the band are also earning a lot this time.
Miwa-chan, who wrote all the lyrics and composed more than half of the music for this album, still earns the most in the team. Shinichi Iwahashi, who did not participate in the creation, earned about the same amount of money as Nakamura-san due to his status as a producer.
However, as a producer, Shinichi Iwahashi, except for the portion he gets as a member and arranger, the majority of it is allocated directly from sales. Therefore, it is not because he works for less money.
He took a lot and had a conflict with Brother Nakamura.
While "Lovegoeson" was selling well, Shinichi Iwahashi, who always told Manyumi Watanabe that he couldn't save money, became a little richer for the time being.
Before he finds ways to spend the royalties again.
…
Watanabe Mayumi was in charge of the "outside" and contacted TV Asahi, while Shinichi Iwahashi was in charge of the "inside" and came up with the script for this program.
A few days ago, Iwahashi Shinichi told Akimoto Yasu about the prank show. The fat young man didn't give a reply at the time, but he didn't delay for too long. Within three days, he contacted Iwahashi Shinichi and asked him to go drink.
Yasumoto Akimoto, the leader of Roppongi, did not change his lifestyle because he was trapped by Asamiko Takai. He was still the same as before, starting from 7pm in the evening, constantly changing shops and drinking until the early morning.
Iwahashi Shinichi asked for help, so he naturally drank less. He followed the fat young man and changed four stores in succession. From "Yami-chan" to "Ai-chan", the fat young man finally had enough to drink and eat.
Relent and agree to be this ally.
This is what happens to people in black in the entertainment industry. Many programs and collaborations are decided like this while drinking.
When Akimoto Yasu entered the game, Iwahashi Shinichi felt a lot more relaxed.
Although he is responsible for writing plans, he has never learned how to write scripts and knows almost nothing about related things. Although he has read a lot about scripts, it is absolutely impossible for him to do it.
Just like when it was said that Miwa-chan's talent only had one foot, and someone had to help turn her invisible talent into something tangible so that she could run, the prank show that Shinichi Iwahashi planned to produce also only had "one foot."
Only one foot".
It wasn't until professional script writers like Yasushi Akimoto came in that we could "get up and running".
It was also because of confirmation of Akimoto Yasu's entry that Watanabe Manyumi started to contact TV Asahi.
Now that the band Heaven has launched, there is no need to delay the new program. The sooner it can be picked up, the better. She first took the project to negotiate with TV Asahi, while Shinichi Iwahashi worked with the fat young man to come up with the script as soon as possible.
…
It was not a holiday, so there were not many people in the screening room for the evening show. The seats were spread out quite widely in the huge screening room.
In the row where Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamori Akina sat, they were the only two nearby. When the movie started and the lights dimmed, no one watching the movie could have imagined that there was Topo Star in the same theater with them.
The process of falling in love with a Taopusida is actually the same as that of other ordinary couples. They want to watch movies together, play at amusement parks together, and go to delicious restaurants together...
However, because the other party is a Taopusda who will cause commotion when he appears in public, all "together" things have to be hidden.
After the two people started talking, the way they got along didn't change much.
The most common way to date is still to meet on the street in a wealthy residential area after work in the evening. Occasionally, Shinichi Iwahashi works overtime at the production company, and Akina Nakamori brings a bit of an office romance mentality to his office.
Tonight, the two of them agreed to go watch a movie together.
When the movie started and the lights dimmed, Nakamori Akina didn't look at the big screen. Instead, she leaned over to Shinichi Iwahashi, looked at his face, and then sat upright with a smile on her face, focusing on the movie in front of her.
Shinichi Iwahashi couldn't guess what his girlfriend Tao Pushida wanted to do just now, so he imitated her and moved his face towards hers.
As a result, she was given a nudge by Akina Nakamori, and she had no choice but to turn her attention to the big screen.
