After Chihara Rinto became the director of the Kanto United Production Bureau, according to the unwritten rules in the industry, even the hostile news media would not make an issue about him, and he himself did not like to appear in public - in the past two years,
His appearances on television, newspapers and magazines were few and far between. At most, he was mentioned by name in passing, and only previous photos and images were circulated privately.
Therefore, Danno Mika, a high school girl, looked familiar to him, but couldn't remember who he was for the moment, so she could only think hard about it.
Judging from his words and temperament, he should be a big shot in the idol industry, but who is he?
The president of a large brokerage company?
It doesn't seem to be the case, but I must have seen photos of this person recently. Where have I seen them?
She couldn't think of it and didn't dare to look back. She turned to her mother and asked quietly: "Mom, there seems to be a celebrity sitting behind us. Do you recognize him?"
At this time, the seventh-ranked idol happened to be on stage. This was the main selection. Even though she only got seventh, this girl idol from Guanzhong was still extremely happy, covering her mouth and crying with joy.
There was a row of people in the stands opposite and suddenly one of them raised an electronic board, and when connected, it read, "One push leads to a draw, and you die without regrets."
Kazusa was so surprised that she didn't bother to answer her daughter's words. Instead, she asked: "Mixiang-chan, what does single push mean?"
Mei Xiang glanced at the people in the row opposite, and quickly explained to her mother: "It means that you only like one idol. For example, mom, you are not a single pusher, because in addition to liking Sanchiyo, you also like several other children."
Hesha was thoughtful, but she didn't expect that being a fan was important, so she asked, "Then should I count as more votes?"
"Don't talk too much about this, Mom." Hesha knows better, because she often discusses these things with her classmates at school, but she is much better than Hesha, a housewife. "The kids you like are all the kids in Tokyo 50, but you like the most
It's just Sanchiyo, so it should be considered a 'famous recommendation' in 'Tokyo House', which means you like the team Tokyo 50, especially Gomi Sanchiyo, so you should call yourself a 'Gomi push'."
"In other words, a single push means that you don't like the team, but you just like a certain kid? A famous push means you like both the team and a certain kid on the team."
"Yes, there are also types of kids who only support the team but don't have a specific favorite. We call this kind of box pushing."
Hesha understood and sighed: "It turns out there are so many things to pay attention to."
Hesha nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Mom, this is already part of the culture. I don't know if I will be regarded as outdated, and I won't be able to chat with others in school."
"That's it, that's it!"
Kazusa nodded more diligently. Japan is very particular about "gregariousness". If you are isolated, you will often be miserable, especially in school. Therefore, she is not opposed to her daughter knowing more about social and popular culture. She even feels very relieved. And Meixiang
After finishing the popular science for my mother, I quickly put the topic back on track and whispered: "Mom, there seems to be a famous person sitting behind us. Take a look."
Kazusa instinctively glanced back, but did not recognize it. She turned back and looked into the field, anxiously looking forward to the appearance of Gomi Sanchiyo, and preferably to win one. She just casually said to her daughter: "On this occasion, even if
Even if you are a celebrity, don’t disturb others casually, just concentrate on watching the election!”
Meixiang obediently said "yes", but she agreed and she still didn't give up. Anyway, she didn't care who won the first place, so she continued to think hard there.
I must have seen photos of this person recently, and it seems that this person is very important and should be related to someone I care about very much, but...
It can't be someone related to dad. Dad doesn't know any celebrities, and it can't be someone related to mom. Mom is at home all day long, and it's even more impossible. Then it's related to Yuma Onii-chan?
She was thinking and thinking, and suddenly she had a flash of inspiration and finally recalled it.
It seems that not long ago, I went to the home of a senior from the same club to admire her collection of idol flash cards. This senior is a box pusher and mainly promotes the F4 team, which is Yuma Onii-chan's team. There is a cardboard one on the desk in her bedroom.
There seems to be a photo of this person in the Buddhist niche. I heard that the senior would give him three sticks of incense every morning. I asked him to give Yuma Onii-chan and the others more resources so that Yuuma Onii-chan and the others could go straight to the clouds as soon as possible.
.
That’s right, that photo was cut from an old interview magazine, and that’s the person behind!
This person is the master plan of Tokyo 50 and the person who can decide the fate of idols!
She was so excited about this big discovery that she was shaking a little, and couldn't help but look back again.
Qianhara Rinto also noticed her. Tokyo used to be a place where gold could not buy land, so the stadium auditorium could not be built so that people could lie on their backs. The little girl in front of him turned her head and faced his chest. Occasionally,
It doesn't matter once, but after turning around several times, it's hard not to notice.
He smiled very gently and said softly: "Excuse me, what can I do?"
Meixiang was shocked, but she still mustered up the courage to ask in a low voice: "Are you Qianyuan Lao..."
Before she finished speaking, Qianhara Rinto put her index finger up to her mouth and smiled to signal her not to say it, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. Meixiang understood immediately and nodded vigorously obediently, but then confirmed
: "You are the general planner of Dong..., right?"
Qianhara Rinto looked around and found no one paying attention here, so he smiled and nodded.
Meixiang immediately became more well-behaved, trying her best to lean back inconspicuously, and asked in a low voice: "Then can you tell me whether Yuma Onii-chan can get the first pick tomorrow? I promise not to tell
Everyone just wants to...want to know Anxin as soon as possible."
There was prayer in her eyes, but Chihara Rinto said gently: "I don't know about this either. There is a dedicated person in charge of counting the votes, and they will only be handed over to the host before the event."
“So was the election fair and just?”
"Of course, I can personally guarantee that all votes that comply with the rules in the general election will be counted, and all those who commit fraud will be held accountable to the end." Chihara Rinto told the truth, of course, in selection meetings such as guessing games, etc.
There may be some manipulation, but the overall selection is completely fair - the fans voted with real money, and there must be the due respect.
What's more, the guessing game selection is more like a performance. Even if you secretly instruct a few people to help the juniors and give them a chance to succeed, most fans will understand. The general election is much more serious, and cheating is a serious scandal.
It's your own death.
Meixiang was relieved. She felt that if there was a fair vote, her Yuma Onii-chan would be at least 70% sure to win, but she still wanted to say a few good words for her idol so that a big shot like Chihara Rinto would have a better impression of her idol.
, it’s a pity that due to lack of social experience, I couldn’t think of what to say for a moment, but Chihara Rinto noticed it, looked at the stadium, and asked gently: “Whose fan are you?”
Meixiang was slightly flustered and said: "I came with my mother, she is a five-flavor pusher, and I am... I am a single pusher, Yuuma Oni-chan."
Chihara Rinto's expression became gentler, as if he was talking to a little sister, "So that's it. Don't worry, your Yuma Oni-chan is developing smoothly now and will also go smoothly in the future. You don't have to worry about anything."
Meixiang said in surprise: "Really?"
Qianhara Rinto smiled and nodded: "Really, with fans like you willing to support him, he will definitely succeed."
"Ah, this is really great, I will try my best too!"
Meixiang felt that Chihara Rinto was really a good person, and felt that she needed to go back and make him a Buddhist shrine to worship him every day - this should be considered an "idol god", right? Give him five yen every day, and he will fulfill her wish.
Bar?
She was twisting her body here and chatting with Chihara Rinto, quite excited, and was soon discovered by her mother Hesha. Kasha also turned her head, looked at Chihara Rinto apologetically, nodded slightly in greeting, and then softly said to
The daughter scolded: "Meixiang-chan, be polite and don't disturb others at will."
Mei Xiang was scolded by Xiao Xiao, but she didn't care at all. Instead, she held her mother's hand tightly and whispered cheerfully: "Mom, this is Teacher Qianyuan."
Kazusa looked at Chihara Rinto in surprise, and when he saw that he did not refute, she immediately lowered her head and saluted, and said softly: "I didn't expect you to be in front of me, I'm really rude. My husband likes your "Naoki Hansawa" very much, and the one you produced
Many programs have also brought happiness and excitement to our whole family, so thank you very much."
She actually also likes Chihara Rinto's works. For example, she bought the collector's edition of "Ama" and takes it out from time to time to rewatch or review the most exciting and touching episodes. Sometimes she even plays it just to listen to the music.
She entered the video recorder, but she is relatively reserved and will not reveal her inner feelings in person.
Qianyuan Rinto also put his hands on his knees, bowed his head slightly in return, and said seriously: "It is my greatest honor that your family likes you..."
Before he finished speaking, half of the stadium suddenly became commotion and there was a sound of disbelief. Chihara Rinto immediately looked into the stadium and found that the votes for Gomi Sanchiyo were announced, and it seemed that he only got the second pick.
Gomi Sanchiyo is very popular, and a lot of old men, old ladies, and housewives like her. Once when she was appearing in a variety show, she spilled flour. She apologized to the flour in shame, but the flour of this brand was sold out the next day.
This is evident from this.
Now that she failed to get the first place, it is really hard for many people to accept.
She also seemed a little depressed and blamed herself, but she still had tears in her eyes and tried her best to thank the fans who voted for her with a smile. Then, she defeated her with a super slim margin of 51 votes and won the first place.
Miki Panahashi, who is always at the center of Budokan concerts, made her appearance.
She was also in tears and was so excited that she choked up when speaking. She muttered words of thanks, while most of the entire stadium fell silent. In a small area with only a few front rows connected together, everyone wore their clothes almost at the same time.
He wore a hat, and on the hat was the logo of the Tanahashi Miki Fan Club.
These people just wore their hats and did not cheer loudly. They watched with relief and trembling as the short girl in the center of the field began to be "coronated", put on a flower crown, and was sent to the throne representing a person in the midst of salutes and petals in the sky.
Chihara Rinto was also somewhat unexpected.
When he first met Tanahashi Miki, the little girl was still a trainee handing out flyers on the roadside. She even tempted him and wanted him to support her first road show, but she didn't succeed.
During the filming of "Boys Over Flowers", she acted as a vase and was the only one who could coax all the fans to go home after the night shift instead of running away.
She works hard enough, even though it is for her own success, but she has really worked hard to be a second-generation idol, so to be able to sit on the throne of the first one today, in a sense, she deserves it.
Moreover, if you look at the situation at the scene, you can probably understand that Miki Tanahashi's fans are more united and organized. Even if the number is small, it is common sense that they can defeat Sanchiyo Gomi - those who like Tanahashi regard her as the most popular
A warm-hearted lover, but those who hate her more think she is a shameless temptress and hope that everyone will like her and support her without any lower limit.
Chihara Rinto just watched like this. He didn't care who won or lost. Such a fight might be more beneficial to the development of the entire team. However, he quickly noticed that the housewife in front was looking at Gomi Sanchiyo sitting on the "silver throne".
His waist was a little slumped, and he seemed to be regretting it. He couldn't help but comforted him: "There will be a chance next year."
He Sha shook her head and forced a smile: "I originally wanted to see this child win the first place, but I didn't expect that I was only 51 votes short. If I had known earlier, eh..."
It's only 51 votes. At most, it's a difference of 51 CDs or the support of 51 club members. It's really a very small difference. It's worth 60,000 to 70,000 yen at most, which even she can afford.
There is no regret medicine in life, and Qianhara Rinto could no longer be comforted. Moreover, he also found that someone beside him seemed to have noticed this, and was peering around with suspicious eyes, and seemed to recognize him.
He didn't want to attract onlookers. Anyway, he had seen what he needed to see and understood what he needed to understand, so he stood up and said, "I'm glad to see you two. Unfortunately, I have to leave. Please take care of yourself."
He took Jin Xiumei and was about to leave, but Meixiang hesitated, grabbed him and prayed: "Well, we are destined to meet each other, right? Then can I make a wish to you?"
Qianhara Rinto asked strangely: "Make a wish?" I'm not a divine dragon, and you haven't collected all seven dragon balls, so why are you talking about making a wish?
Meixiang didn't care at all, but said anxiously: "Yes, I want to make a wish! My mother really likes Machiyo, but she has never had the chance to meet her. The handshake meeting is always full of people. Can you arrange to meet my mother?
Her once? Please!”
Kazusa was stunned for a moment, and immediately warned in a low voice: "How can you make such a request, Meixiang-chan, don't be rude!"
"But you should really want to comfort her, right?"
"That's right, but we can't..."
Before she finished speaking, Qianyuan Rinto noticed that there were more and more people here, and he quickly smiled and said: "You two don't have to argue anymore, I understand what you mean. If you don't mind, can you tell me your home address?"
"
Before Kazusa could react, Meixiang already had a happy face and reported her home address very quickly. She was not afraid that Chihara Rinto was a bad guy, but Chihara Rinto kept it in mind and didn't say anything else. He just smiled and left quickly.
.
Hesha bowed slightly to see him off, and then criticized her daughter in a low voice: "Make a wish? What wish? This is not going to a shrine! If you make him angry like this, you will cause trouble for that child Michiyo!"
"But he has a good temper. I don't think he is angry." Meixiang was very dissatisfied and insisted, "This is Qiyu, mom. Qiyu is used to fulfill wishes. Didn't he ask for our home address? Maybe it will make Sanqianyo
Come and visit you directly!”
"How is that possible? That child Michiyo is very busy. I heard that she can only sleep four hours a day to make announcements and attend performances."
"But if he agrees, Sanchiyo will definitely come!"
Meixiang firmly believed this. She had made a wish to the "god of idols", and the god didn't object, so it should have been allowed. At most, she could pay five yen later!
…………
"Are you planning to ask Miss Sanchiyo to visit them?" Jin Xiumei was equally confused and asked as she walked.
Qianhara Rinto smiled and admitted, "If there are no special circumstances, I have this plan."
Jin Xiumei asked humbly: "Then what is the meaning of doing this? What are you planning to achieve through this action?"
Qianyuan Rinto said inexplicably: "What do you mean?"
"I see that you are very well-planned and have a very clear purpose in doing things. There can't be no reason for agreeing to this kind of thing, right? There should be deep-seated considerations, but I couldn't find it, so..."
Jin Xiumei was indeed thinking, and she was learning from Rinto Qianhara, but Rinto Qianhara had nothing to say for a moment, and smiled helplessly: "Don't make me look like a scheming bad guy all day long. The reason why I agreed is because of that
As the child said, 'We are destined to meet each other', it's just random, and it's not difficult for me."
"Just doing it randomly?"
Qianhara Rinto nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, if I have to give a reason, it would be...professional ethics!"
"Professional ethics?"
Qianhara Rinto had already walked into the passage and felt suddenly cool. He said: "Everything I do is to seek success in my career. I don't deny this, but I am also a person in this industry and will abide by the industry rules."
My professional ethics bring joy and emotion to every audience, and satisfy their spiritual needs. But I am not a god, and it is impossible for me to cover everything and satisfy every audience, but even if I cannot take care of everything, I will at least do my best.
Best effort. So, I don’t want to say no to a request like that, that’s all.”
After a pause, a smile appeared on his face, which was very bright and clear even in the dark passage. He smiled again, "No matter how rich and successful I am, I am still a program producer. This will never change."
