Japanese big things

The next day, the weather was fine, and the gentle sunshine filled the Tokyo sky, giving people a warm and comfortable feeling.

Nakamura Masahiro, who was a little free, took Riho Yoshioka to the station and watched the train he was riding gradually go away until it disappeared from sight, then he turned around and rushed to the NHK TV station.

Although the live broadcast time of "Red and White Songs" is after seven o'clock in the evening, Nakamura Masahiro, who already attaches great importance to such an important time, naturally does not dare to slack off.

Today is December 31st, which is also the last day of 2011. "Red and White Songs and Battles" is regarded as a reserved program for family reunions in Japanese society.

If there is some negative news, even if Nakamura Masahiro as the supervisor will not be greatly affected, the good reputation he has created in the eyes of the public will have cracks, which is definitely something Nakamura Masahiro does not want to see.

"Director Nakamura, are you here so early?"

The staff in charge of the reception suddenly showed a surprised look on their face when they saw the figure of Masahiro Nakamura.

Although the artists who appear in "Red and White Uta" will come to NHK TV station in advance to make relevant preparations, it is quite rare for Masahiro Nakamura to come so early.

After all, artists' schedules are often quite busy, and at the end of the year, they are even more busy, unlike Nakamura Masahiro, who is so leisurely.

"Anyway, there's not much to do, so I just came here..."

Nodding in response to the other party, Nakamura Masahiro chatted casually for a few words, and then led him straight to the lounge.

Walking through the narrow corridor of NHK TV station, except for a few hurried staff from time to time, Nakamura Masahiro saw no one else.

"Director Nakamura, we have arrived in the lounge..."

Just when Nakamura Masahiro was lost in thought, the staff's quiet reminder brought him back to reality.

Nakamura Masahiro raised his head and glanced slightly. His name was posted on the door of the lounge. It was indeed the lounge assigned to him by NHK TV station.

"Thanks...."

Expressing his gratitude politely, Nakamura Masahiro watched the other party leave, then turned around and entered the lounge.

Because it was still early, Nakamura Masahiro originally thought of taking a nap to pass the time, but the arrival of Mao Inoue disrupted his idea.

"Inoue-san, please come in..."

Although he was a little surprised by the arrival of Mao Inoue, Masahiro Nakamura still politely gave way to the passage.

Inoue Mao smiled kindly at Nakamura Masahiro, then turned slightly sideways and walked into the lounge a little tiptoe.

She was wearing a colorful kimono, perhaps because she had learned ballet and other dances since she was a child. She exuded an elegant temperament, inexplicably a bit like Yamato Nadeshiko.

"Is something wrong?"

After Inoue Mao sat down, Nakamura Masahiro also sat down safely, and then asked a question with a slight curiosity.

"No...."

Inoue Mao shook her head frankly and said, "I just heard that Nakamura-san is here and wanted to come over and have a chat."

"Let's talk?"

Hearing Inoue Mao's words, Nakamura Masahiro immediately became happy. He smiled and replied: "I'm not a giant panda, so how can I be so attractive?"

At the beginning of the year, Tokyo's Ueno Zoo invited the giant panda, a national treasure from across the sea, to stay, which once again triggered a craze for pandas in Japanese society.

It is said that people who went to Ueno Zoo at that time were like a tide, filling the zoo with water, and the scene was spectacular.

Although Nakamura Masahiro has not seen the scene, he has heard many related reports, but he is not very interested.

After all, although pandas are very cute, in Nakamura Masahiro's memory, he is actually not that rare.

"Besides, if you really want to talk, shouldn't Inoue-san go find Matsumoto-san?"

As soon as the words came out, Nakamura Masahiro suddenly realized that it seemed a bit inappropriate to mention Matsumoto Jun's words in front of Inoue Mao.

"Eh?"

Inoue Mao's reaction was beyond Nakamura Masahiro's expectations. She looked at Nakamura Masahiro in surprise and said, "Why are you looking for Matsumoto-san?"

"Isn't Inoue-san dating Matsumoto-san?"

Looking a little hesitant, Nakamura Masahiro pursed his lips and said a little presumptuously: "Is this true..."

"Nakamura-san, that's just media propaganda and hype. We have no relationship."

Inoue Mao waved her hands in a panic, and her tone became more serious. She explained: "Matsumoto-san and I are just ordinary friends..."

Seeing Nakamura Masahiro's suspicious look, she added solemnly: "Matsumoto-san feels too harsh to me. We usually have nothing to talk about, so it's not suitable at all."

"real?"

Seeing that Inoue Mao's expression didn't seem to be fake, Nakamura Masahiro, who still had a hint of doubt in his heart, asked again.

"However, the media seems to have been reporting on your relationship..."

"Nakamura-san, I told you, it's just media hype."

Mao Inoue said in a rather helpless tone: "Ever since I co-starred with Matsumoto-san in "Boys Over Flowers", maybe it's because the TV series is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the media will report it like this every year."

"There was even news that he and I were about to get married... Sometimes, I even doubt myself."

Seeing Mao Inoue sighing with frustration, Nakamura Masahiro didn't know how to answer the question for a moment.

Obviously, according to Mao Inoue, she and Jun Matsumoto did not have a relationship, but became ordinary friends because they co-starred in "Boys Over Flowers".

The reason why the media frequently reported that she was dating Jun Matsumoto was mainly because the TV series "Boys Over Flowers" was so successful that the sense of CP it created left a deep filter on the public and fans.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Well, according to Inoue Mao’s statement, it seems to make sense.

Nakamura Masahiro nodded slightly, agreeing with Inoue Mao's explanation. He had many dealings with media reporters in the industry, and he knew the virtues of those pens very well.

If you are a formal official media reporter, you will have some professional ethics. However, if you are an entertainment media reporter, you will definitely talk nonsense, and everything will focus on traffic.

Especially with the advent of the self-media era, for the sake of their own interests, not many entertainment reporters care about the truth. Attracting the public's attention and attention is the way to go.

The reason why Nakamura Masahiro has the impression of Jun Matsumoto as a scumbag is because similar frequent reports left a deep impression on him.

Time passed slowly bit by bit, and Nakamura Masahiro and Inoue Mao were chatting casually.

Not long after, a staff member knocked on the door of the lounge. He came to see Inoue Mao and reminded Inoue Mao that it was time to return to the studio to prepare.

So, Inoue Mao immediately stood up and said goodbye to Nakamura Masahiro, and then quickly left the lounge with the staff.

However, Nakamura Masahiro also had no rest, because the members of akb48 also rushed to NHK TV station at this time.

Because of their previous rehearsal cooperation, the girls knew that Nakamura Masahiro was not the kind of eccentric senior, so when they came to visit him in the lounge, they looked more relaxed.

However, there was still a sense of exhaustion that could not be concealed on their faces, and it was obvious from a glance that they had a busy schedule and never got a good rest.

As the most popular idol group in the Japanese entertainment industry, akb48 is highly sought after, and at the end of the year, when the work schedule is very busy, it is normal for them to not get any rest.

"You look very tired..."

After welcoming the girls into the lounge, Nakamura Masahiro took the initiative to start a topic. Although his lounge was not small, so many people suddenly poured in, and it seemed a bit crowded for a while.

The girls looked accustomed to it, obviously already used to this crowded situation: there are so many members in their group, no matter how big the lounge is, it will become cramped.

"Well, I just came over from the commercial performance..."

The person who answered Nakamura Masahiro was Maeda Atsuko. Among the members of akb48, she is the one who knows Nakamura Masahiro the best.

At this time, she was slumped on the chair without any image, looking weak and lazy, which was completely different from the vitality she showed to the public.

Her teammates all seemed not surprised by this, and they were obviously already accustomed to Maeda Atsuko's state.

"Where is your agent? Isn't he with you?"

When the door opened just now, Masahiro Nakamura didn't see akb48's manager.

"The manager went to visit the staff of "Red and White Uta". He knew that we came to Nakamura to supervise here..."

Maeda Atsuko didn't answer. She squinted her eyes and was dozing. She didn't know if she had fallen asleep. However, Takahashi Minami, Oshima Yuko and others looked at each other, and then Takahashi Minami, the captain, stood up and answered.

.

"Then you guys should take a rest first..."

After chatting for a while and discussing the stage coordination issues, Nakamura Masahiro gave up the idea of ​​continuing the conversation when he saw that the girls all looked listless.

As a result, the slightly crowded lounge showed a slightly weird painting style: Nakamura Masahiro sat on the side against the wall to relax, while the girls of akb48 spread out around him, either sitting on chairs, or

Squatting on the ground to rest.

The lounge was always in a quiet atmosphere, and time passed by so slowly, and it was soon approaching seven o'clock.

The staff informed the artists participating in the performance one by one, and Masahiro Nakamura and members of akb48 also rushed to the studio of NHK TV station along with the large army that filled the corridor.
