Unexpectedly, a few days later, Fangcun Dayou called to tell me some bad news.
Naoki Nagayama was killing time at home watching the drama "Yuejiu", and was overwhelmed by the situation.
He quickly rushed to the studio.
"Otomo-san, what exactly is going on?" Naoki Nagayama asked before he sat down.
Yoshimura Otomo was looking down at a copy of "Weekly Bunshun". Hearing this, he handed over the magazine.
"Let's take a look first, Naoki-san, and we'll talk about it later."
On the second page of this magazine, there was a photo of the sexy actress Akiyama Princess being slapped by a man at the entrance of the hotel, with a shocking title: "Pillow business? Wildcat group public relations failure? Sexy actress Akiyama Princess was slapped in the face in public!"
》
Naoki Nagayama was a little surprised when he saw such a title and picture.
"Weekly Bunshun" is so fierce this time? Even the Burning Agency can't stop it?
In fact, the public relations activities of female artists can be said to be an unspoken rule in rb. Needless to say, artists who have fallen out of fashion, and even artists who are on the rise, may be asked to accompany them for drinks.
Generally speaking, major news outlets will get the news before publishing such breaking articles, and then spend money to buy Ping An.
Especially for an article like "Unknown artists are asked to stay in business", which is not a big hit, "Weekly Bunshun" will not be too obsessed with publishing it, so the focus this time is actually the man who slapped him?
"It looks like it's an internal fight!" Naoki Nagayama looked at Yoshimura Otomo, "Otomo-san, this Etsurou Kikuchi in the article should be the one who bought the girl group, right?"
"Hi, Etsuro Kikuchi, the public relations director of Burning Corporation, although it was Masato Arai who came to negotiate initially, it was this person who initiated the acquisition behind the scenes."
"When such a scandal breaks out, it seems that not only does it offend those in power, but it also destabilizes the position?"
"I heard in the industry that I was very unhappy with the director of the planning department. I tried several times to release idols but failed."
"It looks like this is a general attack~"
Itou Shu opened the door and came in: "Naoki-san, it seems that the members of the Wild Cat Group are going to be replaced."
"Maybe it's not just a replacement. The planning director of the Burning Office, even though I haven't met him in person, has heard that he has a fierce reputation."
Yoshimura Otomo echoed: "Yes, Shoto Oda, who is known as the burning hyena, seizes opportunities and bites to death. All his enemies will be eaten clean."
Added another sentence: "He is an old-school manager and a loyal supporter of kingly idols. The rest of the Wildcat Group will probably be dismantled~"
Nagayama Naoki said to Yoshimura Otomo: "Otomo-san, it seems that the Wildcats may not be able to save this time~"
"Yeah..." The middle-aged Mediterranean man sighed. He obviously put a lot of effort into it.
"However, it might be an opportunity~"
"?Opportunity?" Itou Shuichi and Yoshimura Otomo were both stunned.
If the business office does not want the scandal to continue to be exposed and fermented, or even involve internal struggles,
In addition to asking Public Relations Minister Etsuro Kikuchi to hold a press conference to apologize, there is one more thing.
Just let the trigger of this scandal disappear!
Of course, it is impossible to sink into Tokyo Bay...it hasn't reached that level yet,
However, it is certain that Feisa Akiyama will be forced to retire, and other members of the Wild Cat Group may also be implicated.
"Otomo-san, you might as well go and inquire about the treatment of the Wild Cats. As a former producer, it is normal for you to be concerned." Nagayama Naoki looked at Yoshimura Otomo, "If the contract is terminated, sign them back to Girl's Group.
"
Itou Shuichi was a little puzzled: "Well, Naoki-san, if you re-sign an artist who has been terminated by someone else, you will offend Burning Agency."
"Haha, after all, it is Otomo-san's hard work. If I can help, it doesn't matter at this level." Nagayama Naoki is not worried. The Burning Agency, which has a big business, will not care about such a tainted artist.
.
Since Yoshimura Otomo called directly after learning the news, Naoki Nagayama knew that this old man still had feelings for the Wildcats.
Yoshimura Otomo felt as if he was relieved; "They are all artists signed by me and debuted here. I really feel uncomfortable with this result..."
After all, it has not reached the level where other large companies treat artists as pure commodities.
.......
At this time, in the Burning Office, Ikuo Shufang was looking at Etsuro Kikuchi who was bowing in front of him, with a calm tone:
"Kikuchi-kun, surrender gracefully."
Of course he is aware of the power struggle between the PR Minister and the Planning Minister.
And happy to see its success.
This scandal is actually not big, and it will not affect the reputation and business of Burning Firm.
It's just a sign that the PR minister has lost.
Kikuchi Etsurou tightened his hands and said unwillingly: "President..."
"Kikuchi-kun!" Ikuo Shufang emphasized, "Let's hold a press conference!"
Etsurou Kikuchi felt bitter in his heart, but he understood what the president meant and walked out of the office silently.
There should be no changes to his position for the time being.
But then it may gradually fade out of the core of power, and eventually be transferred to the elderly care department such as the administrative department.
The best outcome might be to branch off and set up an independent agency.
But is it possible that a general who goes out to expand territory and a defeated soldier who is kicked out are the same?
"How can it be repaired!!!"
Thinking of the more than ten years of hard work and the proud smile of Oda Masaru, Kikuchi Etsuro did not dare to get angry at Shufang Ikuo. He could only vent his anger to the weaker party.
Returning to his department, Kikuchi Etsuro called his closest subordinates: "Masato-kun, please contact the media. I want to hold a media conference."
"This?!!" Masato Arai clearly knew the meaning of holding a press conference at this time. It was surrender and raising a white flag.
But after seeing the look on his superior’s face, he said, “Hey, I understand!”
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard Etsurou Kikuchi say softly: "The Wild Cats have also disbanded."
"Huh?" He knew the style of his public relations director very well. The disbandment in this sentence did not mean that the group would disband and the artists would go solo. It meant that all members would retire and there would never be another wildcat group in the entertainment industry.
brand.
After all, the assets acquired by things cost a lot of resources and money in the first place. Masato Arai looked back and wanted to say something,
But seeing Etsurou Kikuchi's gloomy look almost dripping with tears, he quickly replied: "Hi!"
Although he admitted defeat, Etsuro Kikuchi was still the minister of public relations after all, and more importantly, he was still Masato Arai's immediate boss within a year or two.
The current public relations director of Burning Agency wants to retire from his own group.
