Chapter four hundred and fiftieth chapters began to break the news
In early February, the managers of Nogizaka46 were busy preparing for the first performance of the third generation, but on an ordinary afternoon, they received news that gave them a headache.
The 16th single of Nogizaka46, and the first generation member of Nogizaka who will hold a graduation performance at the anniversary concert in February this year - Hashimoto Nanami, was exposed by the industry's notorious magazine "Shukan Bunshun" as having an affair with a man who is currently in the limelight.
Celebrity Nishino Kazuki has a close relationship. The two of them rode in a car together and seemed to go to their love nest together.
The first thing to be exposed was Shukan Wenchun's Twitter account. They learned from the previous lesson and only gave a two-day notice before putting the original video directly on the Internet.
In the video, you can clearly see the looks of Hashimoto Nana and Nishino Kazuki, and Nishino Kazuki's car was also found to be this one.
Although the two did not have any intimate actions in the video, it is true that Hashimoto Nana got into Nishino Kazuki's car, which inevitably makes people more suspicious.
At the Sony Music Building, Toshiro Muramatsu immediately realized after seeing the news that the video was filmed after leaving his home that day, so he directly called other senior executives of Nogizaka LLC.
Takashi Kumagai from Yasushi Akimoto's office and Shiro Yoshida, the senior executive of AKS, happened to be there today, so they gathered together in Toshiro Muramatsu's office and held a brief meeting.
"What on earth is going on?" Shiro Yoshida asked. As the funder of Beihe Office, he certainly has the right to intervene. Of course, he has seen a lot of this kind of thing.
Kitagawa Kenji, the outlawed director of the Kitagawa Office, did not come today, but he should have known the news by now.
Yoshio Konno couldn't help but think in his mind. He had the urge to strongly question "Shukan Bunshun". He had clearly said that he would decide the time to publish the news, but at the critical moment, he directly published such an explosive news.
, not only did Muramatsu Toshiryo not expect, but he, who was even a little prepared, was also shocked.
He also had some doubts as to whether Hashimoto Nanami really had something to do with Nishino Kazuki, which happened to be photographed by Wen Chun. If that was the case, then their plan would definitely change.
"Let me tell you." Toshiryo Muramatsu knew the situation, glanced at everyone present, and then said, "This time it was just a coincidence. Nana Hashimoto and Kazuki Nishino were having dinner at my house that day."
"What?" Shiro Yoshida was surprised.
Konno Yoshio's expression did not change, he just glanced at Muramatsu Toshiryo.
"Then you know the relationship between the two of them?" Shiro Yoshida asked directly.
"This is just a coincidence. The two of them have no such relationship." Toshiro Muramatsu calmed down, "As you know, I am currently in charge of a TV series project for abemaTV. Mr. Akimoto and Mr. Nishino are the producers. I am also friends with him.
, I happened to have an appointment with Mr. Nishino to come to my house for dinner that day, and Hashimoto happened to be there too. When I went back, Mr. Nishino dropped in to see Hashimoto off. The two of us don’t have that kind of relationship."
Kumagai from Akimoto Yasushi's office nodded.
But everyone in the venue frowned.
"Why is Hashimoto also at your house?"
Everyone is confused, why do you, the person in charge of a firm, let your members come to your home? What is this operation?
Only Konno Yoshio understands in his heart.
Muramatsu Toshiryo knew that someone would ask this question, and he had already thought about it.
"Because my wife regards Hashimoto as a junior, and she was also in a difficult situation at the beginning, so I took more care of him."
To be honest, Toshiro Muramatsu said it easily, but his words really couldn't convince everyone.
"So, Muramatsu-san, are you going to come forward to resolve this matter?"
"This meeting is just to think about how to solve this crisis. Besides, Wen Chun didn't take any pictures of the two holding hands, right?"
Weekly Bunshun used a lot of speculative words in the information released, such as suspected, seemingly, maybe, etc., just to let the audience make their own associations. Muramatsu Toshiro also wondered whether they followed the filming to the end and found out that they were just sent home.
Then I deliberately didn’t release the clip.
"In this case, let's deny it directly. Hashimoto's image has always been very good, and there has never been any scandal. He will hold a concert soon. We cannot let Nogizaka's image be damaged at this stage."
After listening to Muramatsu Shunryo's words, everyone felt quite relaxed. After all, it was not a real relationship, it was just a shadow. Although it had a slight impact, it would not be as big as when Sayuri Matsumura was stoned.
Konno Yoshio frowned. Regarding this matter, he kept a relatively low profile. On the one hand, Wen Chun's backstabbing put him in a difficult position, and on the other hand, he could not expose his plan.
But once this incident comes out, it will be difficult to find scandals about Muramatsu next time.
However, this time it was indeed revealed that the relationship between Matsumura and Hashimoto was unusual, and it was also an opportunity.
Several people held a meeting to set the tone, and prepared to publish an announcement directly on the official website to directly deny the relationship between the two, and finally asked Nana Hashimoto to respond in a blog post.
——————
"Nanamin, how come you were photographed?" Mai Shiraishi looked worried. She had just seen the news about Bunchun.
Hashimoto Nana was also surprised. She never thought that this kind of scandal could happen to her, and the target was her best friend's boyfriend Kazuki Nishino.
"I happened to have dinner at Muramatsu-san's house that day, and Nishino-kun was also invited. Since I was on my way, I took his car home. When I was driving out of the door, I remembered that I had forgotten something, so I got out of the car. Unexpectedly,
It was photographed." Hashimoto Nanami also seemed a little regretful. She should have known better and just let the car drive in.
Mai Shiraishi knew that Hashimoto Nana and Nishino Kazuki would not have that kind of relationship, and Nishino Kazuki also told her that day at dinner, so it sounded like it was a complete misunderstanding.
"Then what should we do? There is an uproar on the Internet right now." Mai Shiraishi said worriedly.
Saito Asuka silently came up to me at some point.
"Nanamin..." She shouted, wanting to say something, but found that she didn't know how to speak.
"It's okay. I believe the operation will have countermeasures. After all, Muramatsu-san knows the inside story." Nana Hashimoto's expression did not change and she didn't seem to be worried about this matter. "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
At this time, a male staff member walked in and said to Hashimoto Nanami: "Hashimoto-san, Muramatsu-san wants you to go to his office."
"I understand." Nana Hashimoto did not respond, then nodded to Mai Shiraishi and Asuka Saito, and walked out the door.
Then, all the members in the lounge gathered around.
They were embarrassed to ask questions when Nana Hashimoto was not around. After all, they had to consider the mood of the person involved. After she left, everyone immediately understood.
