Rebirth of Siheyuan starts in the 1980s

Chapter 481 It’s not easy to be a worker in this world

The Warner Pioneer headquarters building in Japan is indeed quite large and advanced, but after all it cannot be compared with large factories, so I ended up walking around for a while.

During this period, Cao Zhiqiang could also see that the tour guide Akina Nakamori was a bit reluctant. The process of showing Cao Zhiqiang around the building was more like completing a task than coming from the heart.

Therefore, after a rough visit to a few departments and a rough understanding of the situation, Cao Zhiqiang excused himself as tired and went directly to the employee rest area with Akina Nakamori, found a deserted corner to sit down, and ordered a drink while drinking.

While chatting.

However, after finding a seat in the rest area and sitting down, Akina Nakamori had nothing to say and just sat and drank.

Seemingly sensing Nakamori Akina's restraint and embarrassment, Cao Zhiqiang simply said: "Ms. Nakamori, taking me to visit your company this time is probably not your intention, is it? Is it the company's request?"

"Ah?" Nakamori Akina was stunned, raised her head and looked at Cao Zhiqiang, smiled dryly and shook her head, "No, I actually..."

Speaking of this, she found that Cao Zhiqiang had been looking at her with a smile, and Nakamori Akina sighed: "Is this so obvious?"

Cao Zhiqiang shrugged: "Pretty much, you're not good at this at first glance."

Nakamori Akina then scratched her hair with both hands: "Yes, I have already said that I am not good at this, but they insist on asking me to come, and there is nothing I can do about it."

Speaking of this, Nakamori Akina took the initiative to smile and stretched out her right hand: "Colleague, please take good care of me in the future."

Although she is not as beautiful as Qinghong, who is instantly adorable, she is very attractive. The more she looks at her, the cuter and more beautiful she becomes.

Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "Yes, it's not easy to be a worker in this world."

At least you, a migrant worker, are better than most ordinary workers.

No wonder people say that Japan in the 1980s and 1990s was the best era for Japan and the period when its self-confidence was strongest.

"That's really good." Akina Nakamori smiled and said, "I have listened to your songs, they are very nice, especially your voice, which can be both gentle and passionate. It sounds good, not to mention that you can also sing your own songs.

Wrote a song.

Cao Zhiqiang also laughed, but said nothing.

"Then what are you waiting for?" Cao Zhiqiang stood up directly, "Hurry up and leave, I've had enough of staying here!"

Yes, Cao Zhiqiang thought of it. Akina Nakamori is most famous for her "epic and tearful" love history.

"practise?"

"Yes, practice."

"It's nothing." Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile, "I know you don't mean that. You just think I will succeed here for my own good, right?"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly.

This led to the fact that throughout the early to mid-1980s, when relations between China and the West were at their best, there were obviously a lot of things to buy, but they could only look at them because they couldn't afford them.

"No, no, yes." Akina Nakamori said, "My task in the morning is to entertain you well."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly: "I am also very successful at home, and more successful than here, in every sense."

According to Nakamori Akina, the bookstore is not far from here, so there is no need to take a car, and walking can provide exercise, which is more meaningful.

For example, I have to practice pronunciation, learn music theory, continue to practice dancing, etc. here, which is not as relaxing as everyone thinks.

Cao Zhiqiang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and stretched out his hand to shake the other person's hand: "You are a senior, you should take more care of me."

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang smiled and nodded, "That's really an honor."

If you really get older, you won't be able to compete with young girls.

"Haha." Cao Zhiqiang just laughed.

"Yes, that's it." Nakamori Akina stuck out her tongue, "I'm sorry, I'm not very good at talking. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."

Akina Nakamori curled her lips: "It would be fine if it was just Section Chief Tomioka, but this time the president personally called me over and assigned me a task. How dare I refuse?"

"But if this continues for a long time, I'm afraid that in the future..."

Seeing that there was no topic again, Cao Zhiqiang shook his head and took the initiative: "Miss Zhongsen, what do you usually do at this time?"

Cao Zhiqiang thought as he walked.

How should I put it? I’m not bragging. Tokyo, Japan, during this period, at least in terms of urban construction, is really good, no worse than the first and second tier domestic cities in 2023.

Cao Zhiqiang believes that as long as he can really gain great benefits for the country and act more prudently, the country will do its best to protect him.

"Thank you for your kind words." Cao Zhiqiang smiled politely.

Immediately afterwards, Nakamori Akina looked at Cao Zhiqiang with a smile: "Speaking of which, I really didn't expect that you could come to our company, and it seems that you have signed a contract with our company, right? In this case, we will be colleagues from now on."

Upon hearing what Cao Zhiqiang said, Akina Nakamori smiled. For a moment, she didn't know what to say, so she just lowered her head and drank the drink through a straw.

It seemed that he was feeling a little cold again. Cao Zhiqiang, who had come to his senses, shook his head and took the initiative to speak again: "Well, MTV is filming in the afternoon, right?"

"Then do you have anything else to do in the morning?" Cao Zhiqiang asked.

In addition, by walking, you can really observe the surrounding environment better and become more grounded.

"Yeah, just like you said, I'm lending you a favor." Akina Nakamori smiled.

Since we are still Chinese in this life, let us serve our motherland well.

If Akina Nakamori's voice wasn't so special, and like Wang Fei, she was rewarded by God, and then broke and stood up again, turned into a butterfly, and her unfortunate love, she might have really collapsed.

However, as far as I know, many seniors who are older and have never been famous will volunteer or even ask the company to help introduce customers, of course those customers with energy, and then hope that by accompanying those guests with energy, they will

Extend your acting career."

"Some people do this." Akina Nakamori nodded, "But it's usually voluntary and not forced."

After leaving, Akina Nakamori did not wave for a taxi. Instead, she led Cao Zhiqiang across the road on foot.

"Originally, I really just wanted to copy articles and songs and live a happy life. Who knew that so many sensitive advanced technologies and advanced equipment would suddenly come to me?"

"At this usual time?" Nakamori Akina raised her head and thought for a moment, "At this usual time, I should be practicing in the practice room."

But soon, Akina Nakamori realized something: "Ah, I forgot again, I am the senior."

Nakamori Akina smiled and stood up as well: "Then you wait here for a moment, I'll go say hello, talk to someone, and then take you there."

Many people say that I am an idol singer and I only rely on my appearance to make a living. In fact, no matter what kind of singer I am, it is very difficult and not easy at all."

Akina Nakamori nodded: "Actually, I'm very busy most of the time. If I don't record records or participate in activities, I have to do basic training, so I don't have much free time.

"A bookstore." Nakamori Akina smiled, "No problem, I know there is a good bookstore nearby. It's a big place and the environment is nice. Can I take you there?"

Forget it, it's better to mind your own business and avoid getting into trouble.

Do you want to remind her more and help her avoid that scumbag?

"Won't you refuse?" Cao Zhiqiang asked.

"Haha." Cao Zhiqiang laughed dryly.

After all, I have a heavy responsibility now, so it’s better to do less unnecessary things.

It's a pity that due to various congenital deficiencies, he was beaten up by his American father after he swelled up, and soon returned to his original shape.

Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "Is there any prescribed scope? I mean, must I only be able to act within the scope of the company?"

It seems that she is the scumbag she met at the end of this year, and fell in love with him without hesitation. She was hurt repeatedly by him, but she still refused to let him go. It didn't matter if he caused a scandal.

Cao Zhiqiang chuckled, narrowed his eyes and said, "Why, you artists, do you still have to go out to entertain guests all the time?"

In the end, she was really heartbroken, and she finally let go as she got older. However, because of this relationship, not only did she miss the best period of development, but it also cast a shadow of scandal on her.

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "Don't worry, as long as you don't be obsessed with love, don't give up your career for love, as long as you focus on your career, you will definitely succeed and become an evergreen star.

, will not be eliminated easily.”

"Thank you, senior!" Akina Nakamori nodded quickly.

But since I have a sweet girl like Akina Nakamori accompanying me, walking is not impossible.

"Yes, senior!" Cao Zhiqiang quickly bowed lightly.

"That's not true." Akina Nakamori shook her head, "What, do you want to go out for a walk?"

"So, do you really want to develop your career here in the future?" Akina Nakamori suddenly asked.

"Uh..." Cao Zhiqiang blinked, "Remember, what happened?"

No wonder she was deceived into that by a scumbag later.

"Hahaha!" Akina Nakamori covered her mouth and laughed, and patted the table lightly, "Interesting, it's really interesting."

"Haha." Cao Zhiqiang chuckled.

But Akina Nakamori is different. To people she doesn't know, she acts very cold, even aloof, but now it seems that it is just her disguise.

"It depends on the situation." Cao Zhiqiang said ambiguously.

"Of course!" Cao Zhiqiang smiled and nodded.

"Cao-san." Nakamori Akina continued, "I'm very happy today because I don't have to be forced to practice anymore. I just have to entertain you."

"Haha." Cao Zhiqiang said with a slight smile, "I'm just an ordinary Chinese. If you have to say why your president values ​​me, maybe it's just because he wants something from me."

Speaking of this, Nakamori Akina deliberately straightened her back and said to Cao Zhiqiang with a straight face, "Hey, junior, please call me, senior!"

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "I want to go to a nearby bookstore, is that okay?"

Once she gets acquainted with you, or she feels that she can get acquainted with you, she is very talkative, even compared to Kyoko Koizumi, she is no less generous.

It is a pity that Western countries do not like to be taken advantage of as much as the Soviet Union, and they often provide free assistance or even systematic assistance. Instead, they require money for everything.

Well, after all, the 1980s were the best era for China, the United States, and China and Japan.

"Really? Is it really okay?" Akina Nakamori asked.

It's just that Koizumi Kyoko is relatively more outgoing and can be very cheerful to people she doesn't know well.

"Ah, I'm sorry." Nakamori Akina quickly lowered her head and apologized, "I didn't mean to belittle your country, I'm sorry."

Just like that, Nakamori Akina went back and spoke to the front desk, and then led Cao Zhiqiang out of Warner Pioneer's headquarters building.

"Ah, that's right." Akina Nakamori poked her chin with her right index finger, "If you think about it carefully, I entered the company earlier than you, so I am indeed your senior."

It’s just that it’s not good to trust people easily.

Nakamori Akina sighed again: "You Chinese have a saying that is good, be prepared for danger in times of peace. Although I seem to be okay now, no one can guarantee the future."

Akina Nakamori smiled and said: "Actually, to be honest, I thought it would be troublesome to entertain you, but now it seems that you are very easy to get along with and it is not troublesome at all."

Akina Nakamori blinked: "After we said goodbye last time, she kept mentioning you in front of me. It seems that she is really interested in you. By the way, do you really have a girlfriend?"

"By the way." Akina Nakamori said, "Do you remember Kyoko Koizumi? She was the girl I took with me when we had dinner together last time."

Akina Nakamori nodded thoughtfully: "That's right."

In addition, she is young and lively, and her whole body is full of youthful atmosphere. Being with her makes people feel very relaxed.

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang nodded.

If it had seized the time to rise in the 1980s, China would have climbed even faster.

"Let's not talk about her anymore." Nakamori Akina waved her hand, "Cao Sang, will you develop in Japan for a long time in the future?"

"Then it's over." Nakamori Akina shook her head with a pity look on her face, "It seems that our today is a flower that falls on purpose this time, and the flow of water is ruthless."

Speaking of this, Akina Nakamori sighed: "Actually, in our industry, we are very dependent on youth. Once we are not famous when we are young, it will be even more difficult in the future.

Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile: "Miss Zhongsen, you are only eighteen years old, which is the best time in your life. Isn't it too early to think about these things now?"

"Oh, I really didn't want to make it so big."

There is no way, the competition in this industry is so fierce."

"That's right." Nakamori Akina nodded, "Even though I am an idol star now, in fact I am just a working man. Life is very hard."

Country, country, only with a country can I have a family, only with a family can I have myself.

I thought, yes, it is not easy to work as a worker, but this is not easy, but there is still a difference.

But China in the 1980s was suffering from a shortage of foreign exchange. To put it bluntly, there was no money.

Cao Zhiqiang thought for a while and said: "At present, yes."

It’s hard to say what’s happening at the grassroots level in the motherland, but at least the upper-level leaders are said to be very loyal.

"Yes." Nakamori Akina nodded quickly.

"Yeah, it's true." Akina Nakamori said angrily, "Here, I always call people "senpai" when I see them. I'm used to it. I almost forgot that you are younger than me and you are my junior. It's true."

Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "My current biological age is indeed nineteen."

Cao Zhiqiang sighed: "It bothers me a lot if you keep apologizing like this. I think it would be better if you could treat me as an equal and treat us as ordinary friends."

"Then since it's all been given to me, I have no reason not to want it, and there's no reason not to dedicate it to the country."

From this perspective, being able to obtain advanced Western technology and finished products at low prices is definitely a good thing that benefits the country and the people.

After a brief pause, Nakamori Akina lowered her head and said: "I know what you are thinking, but it's not that serious. At least here, they won't force us to go out to accompany guests. Everything is voluntary.

Cao Zhiqiang did not comment on this. After all, he is not good at running or walking. He just likes to ride in a car.

Also, it’s really good to see Akina Nakamori from a close distance now.

"I think it's better for you to stay in Japan." Akina Nakamori said, "I don't mean anything else. I just think that if you stay here, your development will be better. After all, your Japanese is so good and you can sing so well."

, and I can write my own songs, so if I work here, I will definitely succeed."

Speaking of this, Akina Nakamori raised her head and asked curiously: "Speaking of which, you are very powerful. Even our president values ​​you so much. What is your background?"

No wonder she and Kyoko Koizumi are friends. He thought they had complementary personalities before, but now it seems that they are clearly the same person.

So you are living a very hard life, and it is really difficult to empathize with it.

After a brief pause, Akina Nakamori raised her head and smiled at Cao Zhiqiang: "However, although you are one year older than me, you look a bit old-fashioned, just like those uncles. I always thought you were in your thirties.

...Are you really only nineteen years old?"

He now discovered that Akina Nakamori is actually a very cheerful girl. She seemed cold before just because she was not familiar with you.

I believe that with your ability, you will definitely succeed in the future and become a big star!"

"Forget it, let's take it one step at a time."

"If I am really discovered, the worst case scenario is that I will stay in the country and not go out. As long as I don't go abroad, the country will definitely be able to protect me."

"As for now, I still want to go out more when I have the opportunity. After all, life in developed countries is quite nice."

"Oh, Double Standard smells so good, no wonder everyone loves Double Standard, hehehe."
