Japanese big things

Chapter 147 Concerns

The night has become darker unknowingly, as if the rich ink color has been splashed into the sky, covering the entire world, leaving no trace of any light.

On the contrary, the hall is brightly lit at the moment, and the dazzling light shines everywhere, filling every corner of the banquet hall, making the darkness invisible.

In the midst of drinking and drinking, the low-pitched exchanges one after another are like the industrious bees picking back and forth. Although it is a little noisy, there is also a certain pleasant rhythm.

Busy hotel waiters shuttle back and forth between tables, delivering delicious food and drinks, or removing the remains of empty bottles that have been enjoyed.

The appearance of running back and forth was like a butterfly flying back and forth among the flowers, which formed a sharp contrast with the elegant behavior of the party participants.

Obviously everyone is in the same world, but the invisible boundaries seem to be real, giving people a distinct feeling and not interfering with each other.

Under a peaceful atmosphere, the party continued. Because people came over from time to time to say hello to several elders, Nakamura Masahiro and his mother Fukuda Mizuki quickly stepped aside.

However, her mother, Mizuki Fukuda, couldn't get rid of the situation when someone came over to chat. No, just after seeing off the two people who came together, the fat Yasushi Akimoto came over again.

"Futian-san, long time no see."

Akimoto Yasushi, holding a wine glass, stood in front of Mizuki Fukuda and Masahiro Nakamura, with a slightly deliberate smile on his face, and even the trace of wrinkles was clearly visible.

"Who is this?"

Turning his head, Akimoto Yasu clearly saw Nakamura Masahiro next to him. After frowning and concentrating for a moment, he subconsciously said with some hesitation: "We have met before, right?"

Obviously, Akimoto Yasushi had already recalled. He had met Nakamura Masahiro at the entrance of the Imperial Hotel before, and even said hello.

"Akimoto-san...."

Fukuda Mizuki responded to Akimoto Yasushi, looked at Nakamura Masahiro with some surprise, then turned to look at Akimoto Yasushi, and asked in a slightly surprised tone: "Do you know our Masahiro?"

Although Nakamura Masahiro and Akimoto Yasushi are both in the entertainment industry, Nakamura Masahiro is from Ishikawa Prefecture in the Hokuriku region, while Akimoto Yasushi is from Tokyo, the entertainment center.

It cannot be said that the two places have nothing to do with each other, but they are still far apart. Logically speaking, there should be no possibility of intersection between the two. So, how did they know each other?

"When I came here, I met Senior Yasushi Akimoto at the door of the hotel."

While Akimoto Yasushi was still thinking about his words, Nakamura Masahiro had already spoken in advance. He smiled at Akimoto Yasushi, bowed slightly in a rather respectful manner and said: "I am Nakamura Masahiro, please take care of me."
"Nakamura-san, you should also be in the entertainment industry, right?"

I felt that Nakamura Masahiro looked familiar before, but because they didn't know each other, Akimoto Yasushi didn't pay too much attention. Now, knowing that Nakamura Masahiro is Fukuda Mizuki's child, Akimoto Yasushi is a little interested.

After all, Fukuda Mizuki is a powerful figure in Dentsu Company and has a lot of resources in his hands. If he can win over the other party, it will definitely be beneficial to Akimoto Yasu.

"Hi."

With a slight response, Nakamura Masahiro confirmed Akimoto Yasushi's guess. Although there is a huge difference in achievements between him and Akimoto Yasushi, from an industry perspective, they do belong to the same entertainment circle.

"Although he can't compare to Akimoto-san, our Masahiro has made some achievements."

In a sense, Nakamura Masahiro can be regarded as the pride of his mother Fukuda Mizuki. Therefore, facing Akimoto Yasushi, a well-known figure in the entertainment industry, his mother Fukuda Mizuki couldn't help but praise him.

"Eh?"

A cooperative tone followed, and Yasushi Akimoto couldn't help but look at Nakamura Masahiro twice. If Fukuda Mizuki, who works at Dentsu, could call it a small achievement, then Nakamura Masahiro's so-called achievements are obviously not that simple.

"He made a low-budget film, which was fortunate enough to be nominated for competition at the Berlin Film Festival. In addition, the TV series he is directing is also well received, and it currently ranks first in the audiovisual rating in the Hokuriku region..."

Although the words she spoke were very plain, the excitement contained in Fukuda Mizuki's tone could not be concealed. The corners of her mouth that could not help but rise showed her inner emotions.

"It is said that the TBS TV station in Tokyo is considering introducing it. It is very rare for local TV station's homemade dramas to be broadcasted in the Tokyo headquarters."

After hearing his mother's words, Nakamura Masahiro was subconsciously stunned. Although the TV series' audio-visual ratings are indeed good, that's because the Hokuriku region is remote and there are no worthy competitors.

If TBS TV station considers introducing TV dramas, the scope of broadcasting will be the Kanto metropolitan area. The competitors are media giants such as TV Asahi and Fuji TV, which are far from the weak opponents of Hokuriku Broadcasting.

By the way, is this news true? What my mother said is conclusive, but as the supervisor of the TV series, I didn’t receive any news of the news.

With many doubts lingering in his mind, Nakamura Masahiro wanted to ask his mother Fukuda Mizuki. However, due to the presence of Yasushi Akimoto, he could only suppress his curiosity and wait for the conversation between the two parties.

"Fukuda-san, according to what you said, Nakamura-san is the young director who was nominated for the Berlin Film Festival before?"

Subconsciously looking at Nakamura Masahiro, Akimoto Yasushi looked at him carefully with a scrutinizing gaze. No wonder he felt that Nakamura Masahiro looked familiar before. It turns out that the other person is the young supervisor in the report, who is known as a potential star.

"Yes, you got the answer right. Unfortunately, this is not a guessing question, so there is no reward."

Her eyes narrowed into a crescent moon, and her mother, Mizuki Fukuda, was in a very happy mood. For a mother, the greatest happiness may be that her child has a bright future.

"Futian-san, congratulations."

With a smile on his face, Akimoto Yasushi sincerely congratulated Fukuda Mizuki. He looked at Nakamura Masahiro attentively, an idea flashed in his mind, and suddenly asked Nakamura Masahiro: "Nakamura-san, I don't know if you have any feelings for idols.

Not interested?"

"Sorry, I have no interest in being an idol."

Although he thinks that his appearance is pretty good, Nakamura Masahiro really has no interest in becoming an idol. Therefore, he rejected Akimoto Yasushi's proposal without thinking.

If it were a domestic idol, then Nakamura Masahiro might still consider it. But for Japanese idols, as long as they have no problem with their brains, Nakamura Masahiro would not consider them.

After all, if he refuses to work under good supervision and becomes the idol with the lowest status in the entertainment industry, isn’t that a mental retard?

"Don't be too busy refusing, Nakamura-san."

Seeing that Nakamura Masahiro chose to refuse without any hesitation, Akimoto Yasushi knew that the other party had misunderstood his meaning. So, he quickly explained: "I mean, are you willing to be an idol's producer?"

"Idol producer? Me?"

Nakamura Masahiro raised his eyebrows and looked at Akimoto Yasushi with a suspicious expression. He had a feeling that the fat man in front of him was teasing him, otherwise he would not have mentioned such a thing.

"Senior, are you sure you're not joking?"

Yasushi Akimoto single-handedly created the national idol group akb48. With akb48 becoming popular in Japan, he can be said to be making a lot of money as a producer.

And all of this is largely due to Yasushi Akimoto’s firm control of akb48. Now that he is mentioning this to Masahiro Nakamura, is it possible that Yasushi Akimoto is willing to share the related interests of akb48?

Just kidding, Masahiro Nakamura would not believe that Yasushi Akimoto has such good intentions. If this happens, it means that Yasushi Akimoto has begun to give up on akb48.

Besides, even if Akimoto Yasushi himself is willing to give up some interests to win over Nakamura Masahiro, are the partners who work with him also willing to give up their interests?

Although Nakamura Masahiro didn't pay much attention to the news about Yasushi Akimoto, he also knew that the relationship between Yasushi Akimoto and his partners was not harmonious due to some disclosures and reports from "Weekly Bunshun" from time to time.

"Akimoto-san, do you want to create a new akb48?"

Compared to Nakamura Masahiro's hesitation, his mother Mizuki Fukuda reacted much faster. Because she works for Dentsu, which is closely related to the entertainment industry, she is well-informed and has already heard some gossip.

"Hey, I have this idea."

Facing the questioning looks of Fukuda Mizuki and Nakamura Masahiro, Akimoto Yasushi acknowledged it directly. He responded, still focusing on Nakamura Masahiro.

"Nakamura-san, I wonder if you are willing to cooperate with me?"

Rebuilding akb48? At this point in time, it seems that the closest idol group should be Nogizaka46, a collaboration between Yasushi Akimoto and Sony.

So, the idol group Akimoto Yasushi wants to win over Nakamura Masahiro to co-create is Nogizaka46? In other words, Nogizaka46 has not been established yet?

Many thoughts collided back and forth in Nakamura Masahiro's mind, making Nakamura Masahiro feel a little confused for a while. He thought Nogizaka46 had been established, but he didn't expect that this idol group was still just an idea of ​​Akimoto Yasushi.

To be honest, Nakamura Masahiro really doesn't know much about Japanese idol groups. Although he has some impressions of those popular names, he really feels embarrassed if he really wants to delve into the debut time and member names.

After all, Japanese idol groups are not like those in Korea, where only a few members come and go. Even if you don’t know the names of the members, you can roughly know the number of members.

In the Japanese entertainment industry, ever since akb48 became popular, the number of popular idol groups has soared. If you are not a senior fan of the idol group, you will be in a state of confusion.

"Senior, I am definitely willing."

After a brief hesitation, Nakamura Masahiro immediately agreed. After all, knowing that cooperation with Akimoto Yasu would be profitable, he would not give up casually.

However, Masahiro Nakamura also has his concerns. Compared with the multi-party cooperation behind akb48, there is only one big partner Sony behind Nogizaka46.

Nakamura Masahiro rashly stepped in. Although it was Yasushi Akimoto who sent the invitation, considering the balance of interests, Sony's response had to be considered.

"But will Sony agree?"
