Life in Tokyo starting as a child star

The premiere of "The Grudge" was not large.

After all, it was just the premiere of a low-budget movie.

Kita Sumire, the main actor, and his agent, Koji Tamura, arrived first.

Then, according to Shimizu-san's arrangement, they stood in front of the screening room with other staff members, smiling and "welcoming guests".

Don't get it wrong.

The "welcoming guests" here mainly refers to standing at the door to welcome the actors, directors, and producers of major entertainment companies who came to support the show.

Shimizu-san is well-known in the industry and has made friends with many people.

Therefore, there are quite a lot of people coming.

Among them are some famous actors and famous producers.

Although Koji Tamura is not stage fright.

But looking at the famous actors, producers, and directors around him who are also well-known in the industry.

Koji Tamura is still a little bit inferior in momentum at this moment.

There is no way.

AR Sub-service Training Company is not a big company in the industry.

Although it uses "elite" as its business strategy.

But in fact, there are only a few "pillars" in the AR actor training company - at most, they are at the level of Akiyama Shion in the industry.

The company behind them is like this.

Of course, Koji Tamura has no confidence.

As for the interviews with reporters?

Those are the privileges of the big names in the industry who come to attend the premiere ceremony.

What kind of small shrimps are he and Kita Sumi?

Even if there are interviews, it will not be their turn.

Just stay there honestly.

Koji Tamura doesn't care much.

Because he came here just to see the specific strength of Kita Sumi, who he has always missed.

To judge whether the other party is worth training.

Thinking of this.

Koji Tamura turned his head and wanted to see Kita Sumi standing next to him.

Unlike the usual well-behaved and sensible actor who only knows to follow behind the agent.

Kita Sumi actually ran to the side of Shimizuyama who was being interviewed without him knowing.

This made Koji Tamura completely panicked.

It was very rude for the director who was being interviewed that his own acting assistant suddenly took such action.

And he had heard that Shimizu-san's temper was not very good among directors.

Don't make everyone unhappy because of this little thing.

He was scared to the point of having a heart attack, and subconsciously took two steps forward.

Then

Tamura Koji heard Shimizu-san's voice smiling and speaking to the reporter.

"To be honest, the actor who surprised me this time was actually precocious. This little guy, his acting skills are really dazzling, I believe he will become an outstanding acting assistant in the near future."

Not only was he not angry.

Instead, he praised Kita Sumire?

Tamura Koji didn't know whether to retract his foot or continue forward for a while.

Because he didn't dare to believe it.

You know, this is a flattery from a director.

And Shimizu-san is also a little famous in the industry.

With him speaking, plus so many directors and producers at the premiere ceremony.

It was like advertising Kita Sumire in front of his peers.

What does the sub-actress lack in the industry?

What they lack is job opportunities.

Even if only one person present remembered what Shimizu-san said.

Maybe Kita Sumi will have more job opportunities in the future.

As a director, Shimizu-san must know about this.

Does he think so highly of his own Kita Sumi?

And the acting skills praised by the other party

To be honest, Tamura Koji has seen Kita Sumi's acting skills before.

But it should be far from being praised by Shimizu-san.

Tamura Koji was a little speechless.

He couldn't understand why Shimizu-san had such a good impression of his sub-actress in the first cooperation.

But no matter what, it's a good thing.

With Shimizu-san's help to endorse, Kita Sumi can be cultivated with higher value.

Yeah.

I have to add ten points here.

Tamura Koji added ten points to Kita Sumi in his heart, and then watched the other party come back from the front, and then hurriedly pulled him back.

"Kitamura-kun, next time, don't suddenly move forward when someone is being interviewed. This is very rude, you know?"

His expression was very serious, with a hint of blame.

Generally speaking, the actors who were spoken to in such a serious tone by him would put away their uneasy expressions.

But——

"It's okay, Manager Tamura, I'm a child. As long as I don't do anything too much, adults won't argue with children."

Kitamura didn't show any uneasy expression, just smiled calmly and waved his hand.

"Uh——"

After the other party said this, Tamura Koji couldn't help but remain silent for a while.

Because what Kitamura said was indeed reasonable.

As a child, as long as he didn't do anything too much, he wouldn't be disliked by adults.

Lively and cute children are more popular with adults.

However, this is only effective for children.

As a manager, if he does nothing, he will most likely be criticized for Kita Sumimi, or at least be blamed for not supervising the sub-service.

Hmm.

Some people don't listen to their manager.

I'll deduct five points first.

He silently made a note in his mind, and then heard Beicheng Minoru's next words.

"Put my affairs aside for now. In this situation, shouldn't Manager Tamura try to broaden his network?"

There is indeed nothing wrong with this.

The venue was surrounded by famous directors, actors, screenwriters and producers.

As the agent of the AR training institution.

He should take the initiative to communicate with these people, broaden his network, become familiar with them, and at least get a business card or something.

But—

"You little guy says it's so easy, but in fact it's not that easy?"

Tamura Koji sighed helplessly.

Go ask the other person for their business card?

Why?

Why is he a little-known agent from AR Ziyong Training Company?

Others simply ignore you.

And it's not like he hasn't tried it.

But when the other party hears that he is an agent from AR Ziyue Training Company, he will be stunned for a moment, as if he is searching for the name of this company in his mind.

After a while, I made sure that this company was no longer in my mind.

These people would smile politely and nod to him, indicating that they would talk to him later.

Tamura Koji has tried several times.

Basically, I hit a wall and felt like my nose was about to get flat.

At this time, I heard Beicheng Minoru suggesting.

He was also speechless for a while.

This kid really thought it was so easy to get involved with others.

"The adult world is not as simple as you think, Beicheng-kun."

He shook his head and replied.

"Well, how about you let me try? Tamura-san."

"You try? No. Beicheng-kun, please wait a moment?"

Tamura Koji was stunned and was about to speak.

But it's too late.

While his mouth was moving, Beicheng Minoru's small figure was already walking towards someone in the field.

This made Tamura Koji a little unable to hold his nerve for a moment.

no

Beicheng Jun! Don't you understand what I'm saying?

I told you not to run around.

How are you?

No way! Points must be deducted!

Ten points deducted!

Not obedient at all!

Moreover, Tamura Koji also knew the person Kitazumi went to greet.

She was an actress, affiliated with Hokkaido Pictures, her name was Chiyo Yuri, and she was a famous actor who was particularly good at acting in period dramas.

What is a famous actor?

That is an actor who is very popular in the industry today, has played countless leading roles, and is well-known to many audiences.

They are not on the same level as shrimps like them!

Tamura Koji originally wanted to stop it.

But there was no time.

Kitaki Minoru has already spoken.

"Sister, do you have time?"

Tamura Koji is really speechless.

Qian You suddenly ran to Director Qing Shuishan to talk.

Later, he took the initiative to say hello to the famous actress Chiyo Yuri.

He really couldn't understand why Kitazumi was so brave.

Generally speaking, when other servants face such a big scene, shouldn't they dare not even speak nonsense?

Why does Kitazumi dare to take the initiative to talk to others?

Tamura Koji over there had nothing to say.

Chiyo Yuri here was also confused by the sudden greeting.

She looked down subconsciously, feeling a burst of surprise in her heart.

What a handsome child!

Kitaki Minoru came here wearing makeup today.

The already handsome and lovely facial features are even more endearing under the light.

She felt good in her heart and lowered her head with a smile: "Of course I have time. Little brother, what's your name?"

"My name is Kitazumi Minoru."

The other party smiled, and that clean and innocent smile attracted Chiyo Lily's attention.

"Excuse me, what's your eldest sister's name?"

"Ah, my name is Chiyo Yuri, little brother."

Chiyo Yuri smiled and subconsciously fell into the rhythm of Kitami Minoru.

"Then can I call you Sister Chiyo?"

"sure."

Chiyo Yuri nodded, and then heard Kitumi Minoru's words.

"Sister Chiyo, look over there, that newcomer who has just entered the industry is running over. He is my agent, his name is Tamura Koji. Like me, he is still learning about the industry."

"Tamura Koji.?"

Chiyo Yuri subconsciously looked to the other side, and happened to find Tamura Koji walking over with sweat on his face.

"Um, I'm sorry, I am Tamura Koji, Kitazumi-kun is a little rude."

Tamura Koji was just about to bow and apologize.

But he was interrupted by Kitaki Minoru the next second.

"Really, Tamura-san, it's so rude to greet others without taking out your business card."

Kitazumi looked very angry, and gently tapped Tamura Koji's thigh beside him.

business card?

Tamura Koji was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously followed Kitumi Minoru's words and took out the business card from his arms.

"Hello."

"AR training company?"

A name you haven’t heard of?

Is it a newly established company?

As a well-known actor, Chiyo Yuri frowned, instinctively wanting to reject the other party.

But out of the corner of her eye, she accidentally caught a glimpse of Beicheng Minoru's gentle and handsome face smiling at her.

Why.

He sighed helplessly in his heart.

A smile appeared on her face again, she shook hands with Koji Tamura and took out her business card.

"Hello, I'm Chiyo Yuri, an actress from Kitahichi Film Company. Nice to meet you, Mr. Tamura."

"Ah, no, I'm the one. Nice to meet you, Ms. Chiyo."

"."

After a round of greetings.

Tamura Koji looked at Chiyo Yuri, smiled and touched Kita Sumi's head before leaving.

He looked at the business card and Chiyo Yuri's personal contact information.

He was silent.

This child is different.

Completely different from all the actors he had met before.

If the actors he had met before just regarded playing a 'child' as a job and tried to maintain the persona of a well-behaved and sensible child.

Then Kita Sumi simply used the identity of a 'child' as a weapon.

Looking at Kita Sumi who was mixed in with several producers and easily won their favor with her cute appearance.

Tamura Koji, who was following beside him, was speechless.

The business cards and contact information in his hand were increasing.

But all this had nothing to do with him as an adult.

It was as if there was no agent like him.

Kitasumi can thrive in this industry by himself.

Then. How to rate this?

A child actor who can help the agent expand his network?

This... add ten points?

Add a hundred points?

By the way, how many points did I deduct before?

It seems that he doesn't need me very much?

In the end, how can he be so precocious?

So smooth... He really uses his identity as a child perfectly.

It's completely different from ordinary precocious child actors.

I don't know how good his acting is.

What is his performance in "The Grudge"?

Tamura Koji doesn't know why. He is a little excited inside.

His intuition tells him... he may have picked up a treasure.
