godfather of tokyo entertainment

The news that "White Night Walk" won the Naoki Prize and that no one had won the Akutagawa Prize was on the front pages of major newspapers the next day.

This year’s award ceremony was full of various topics. First of all, the Akutagawa Prize was empty. Since the establishment of the Akutagawa Prize in 1935, this is the only time no one has won the award, which can be regarded as making history.

There are mixed opinions on the Internet about the judges' practice of not awarding awards. Some people think that the quality of this year's shortlisted works is indeed not high, and it is natural not to award awards. It actually maintains the sanctity of the Akutagawa Prize; but some people think that this

This approach is irresponsible to writers and readers.

Since the Akutagawa Prize failed, Kei Fujiwara became the only recipient of the award at the New Joy Hotel that night, and all eyes were focused on him alone.

Kei Fujiwara's photos from various angles appeared on the front pages of the culture and entertainment sections of major literary magazines and newspapers. He was the youngest recipient of the Naoki Prize and a new author, and he quickly gained huge attention.

Readers' interest in this young writer is much greater than before. If Kei Fujiwara was a thirty-five-year-old author who had been shortlisted many times, he would never have received the attention he has today.

The interest of the audience is always the interest of the media, so reporters from major media began to rush to interview Fujiwara Kei. Among them, Fukuyama Station Jinshuiloudai. After learning that Keita Sima was an employee of Fukuyama Station's production company, people from the news department directly and vigorously

Entered Mizunami Production Company to shoot a 40-minute documentary for Kei Fujiwara.

The name of the documentary is "The Creative Life of a Genius Newcomer", and it received the highest ratings of 20% on the day it was broadcast, which is quite good among documentaries.

Newspapers under the newspaper group that has a stake in Fukuyamadai are also competing to interview Kei Fujiwara. Over the past week, Kei Fujiwara has accepted numerous interviews from various media, newspapers, and periodicals. I thought that the heat would gradually subside in about a week, but it didn’t.

I thought it was getting worse.

In desperation, Fujiwara Kei had to ask Mizuhara Yui to help him block it. He usually rushed into the Fukuyamadai studio and couldn't get out. Reporters from other media couldn't break in directly, so they had to look at the building and sigh.

The sales volume of "White Night Journey" also increased by leaps and bounds under the stimulation of Naoki Sho. The sales volume was like a straight spear, constantly thrusting upwards. Soon, it reached a terrifying eight points in February.

One hundred thousand copies, and it shows no sign of decline.

"White Night Walk" continues to be reprinted, and the new version of the novel also has many names on the waistband - [Naoki Award-winning work], [the youngest recipient in history], [a work of genius that Mika Miyano is full of praise for]

】,【Japan's strongest rising literary star】......

On the forum, there have been more discussions about Kei Fujiwara, and many people have also revealed his other identity besides the novel writer, the chief creative and planner of "Anthropological Observation".

"Is "Human Observation" also the brainchild of Teacher Sima Keita? I watch that program every Monday night in front of the TV."

"He is indeed the strongest newcomer... He has made great achievements in both the broadcasting industry and the literary world."

"So he is a graduate of Tokyo Bunge University? So he is my senior."

"Is a literary genius actually doing a variety show? Will Fukuyama TV employ people? Why not let him be the chief creative screenwriter?!"

"I totally agree with what was said upstairs. If Mr. Sima becomes a screenwriter and produces TV series, I will definitely support him."

Togada Nanako browsed these messages on the forum and also posted comments in support of Teacher Shiba Keita on the Internet.

At the same time, in a hotel in Tokyo's Minato District, a frighteningly cold face was staring at the computer screen.

Shinya Matsushita scrolled the mouse, watching all the praise for "White Night Journey" on the forum, and kept putting cigarette butts in the ashtray.

He was recently writing a new drama and lived in a hotel with a group of disciples, mainly acting as a supervisor. On the night of the Naoki Award and Akutagawa Award Ceremony, he sat in front of the TV and watched the live broadcast. As a leader in the cultural world

As a member of the family, he was naturally very concerned about it, chewing pine nuts and watching TV.

However, when Kei Fujiwara's face appeared in the camera, he thought he was blinded. When Kei Fujiwara came on stage to accept the award, he almost choked to death when a pine nut slipped into his trachea.

This guy wrote "White Night Journey"? This arrogant brat actually won the Naoki Prize?

Shinya Matsushita found it difficult to accept it for a while, but the front pages of major newspapers the next day emphasized the sad news to him.

What made him even more uncomfortable was that rumors began to spread within Gao Gongli Company. Many people in the company had met Kei Fujiwara before and knew that Kei Fujiwara scolded Shinya Matsushita and then resigned angrily.

No one talked about this matter originally. However, as the results of the Naoki Prize were announced and Keita Sima's true identity was revealed, some of the original rumors became rampant again and became even more demonized.

"Did you know that Keita Sima... the author who won the Naoki Prize was originally from our company and worked in Mr. Kobayashi's group?"

"Eh? Is that so? I've never seen him before."

"He resigned before you came. I heard that he had a conflict with Mr. Matsushita..."

"What contradiction?"

"...Don't tell others, I heard that Mr. Matsushita wants to steal his works..."

…

"Hey, let me tell you something that I just learned about. I heard that Sima Keita was originally a highly skilled employee and wrote "White Night Journey" during his employment, but Mr. Matsushita wanted to use this work as his

He had it, so he resigned in anger."

…

Kei Fujiwara is like a butterfly. After coming to this time and space, he quietly changed the life trajectory of many people.

However, he himself didn't know it, he just flapped his wings to himself.

The amount of royalties paid into his account has made Kei Fujiwara's life much better now, but he still maintains restraint in his daily consumption behavior.

He resolutely overcomes the nouveau riche mentality of becoming rich from poverty and various behaviors of conspicuous consumption. He does not choose luxury brands for his daily clothes, and the car he buys is a cheap Nissan. He is now recognized as the No. 1 nouveau riche in Fukuyamadai.

The economy is not good and the crime rate is soaring, so it is better to keep a low profile on a daily basis.

He came to the parking lot and just took out the car key from his pocket when suddenly a figure came out of the darkness. Kei Fujiwara was startled and subconsciously held the tip of the key between his fingers to act as a weapon.

No, what are you afraid of? There are a lot of robberies in social news recently...

However, the person who came was a middle-aged man in business attire. He was not very tall. He trotted up to Kei Fujiwara and immediately stood still.

"Teacher Sima Keita, excuse me, can I take you a little time?"

Fujiwara Kei took a step back and looked him up and down: "You are..."

The man took out his business card from his pocket and handed it to Kei Fujiwara: "Congratulations on winning the Naoki Award. You deserve it... I am from the Human Resources Department of Fanxing TV and I would like to chat with you for a few words."

Kei Fujiwara took out his business card, looked down and saw that he was actually a deputy chief.
