Tokyo Literary Godfather

The sixth episode of "Long Vacation" was also released. In the original version of "Long Vacation", this episode was the bottom of the ratings, only 26%. Therefore, Kei Fujiwara paid special attention when writing this episode. A few changes to try not to repeat history with this episode.

It turned out that his hard work did have some effect. After the ratings statistics were conducted the next day, it showed that the ratings of this episode were as high as 30.3%, stabilizing the overall level.

"Anthropological Observation" changed its time slot from the original late night slot at 12 o'clock to the 10 o'clock slot on Sundays, and the ratings increased significantly. The popularity of several resident guests of "Human Observation" has also increased significantly, especially the comedian group "Golden Apple". Their offline performances are now almost sold out, and tickets are hard to find.

In order to let the two programs of "Human Observation" and "Long Vacation" attract each other, the two main actors of the TV series, Arima Guixiang and Hoshino Hiroya, participated in the program as temporary guests.

Needless to say, Arima Guixiang's popularity is a popular artist. After participating in "Long Holiday", her status has been stabilized, and she has a tendency to become a national idol all the way.

Hoshino Koya made his debut as a singer on a talent show. He has acted in TV series before, but has always been lukewarm. This time "Long Vacation" directly made him soar, from a third-tier artist to a semi-first-tier artist.

Hoshino Koya's company president even visited Kei Fujiwara in person to express his gratitude to him.

Indeed, it is very difficult to promote a popular artist. Xiaohuo depends on the popularity of the fire. To them, Kei Fujiwara is like a magician who turns an ordinary artist into a star of tomorrow.

It's like helping them plant a money tree with your own hands.

The rise of Hoshino Koya makes one person a little uneasy, and that is Kimura Hayato. Both of them belong to the kind of male stars with a bit of literary temperament, and artists of the same type are natural competitors. If Hoshino Hiroya becomes popular and needs this type of actor in the future, the producer will give priority to Hoshino Hiroya.

Kimura Hayato's agent originally rejected "Long Vacation", which was considered a major work mistake by Kimura Hayato, so he directly changed his agent.

Mizuhara Yui walked out of the production company, found a deserted place and changed her high heels into flat white shoes. She threw the high heels into her bag and walked home in soft casual shoes.

She was in a good mood today, so she didn't drive and planned to walk home. Walking slowly home and looking at the scenery along the way is one of her ways to relax.

It is now June, the weather is gradually getting hotter, and the street trees on the road are lush and green, giving people a feeling of vitality.

There was a cluster of small daisies growing in the corner of the road. Yui Mizuhara walked over, lowered her head and touched it gently with her hands. At this time, a familiar sound of a piano sounded from a store not far away.

There is a piano store not far away, and the sound of the piano wafting out of it is very familiar to Mizuhara Yui. It is the song Sena gave to Konan in "The Long Holiday".

Mizuhara Yui smiled and subconsciously looked inside the piano store.

The person playing the piano was a boy wearing a white T-shirt. A girl next to him clapped happily and said, "You are so handsome, Sawabe-kun. You can play as well as Sena."

The boy scratched his head shyly: "How could..."

With the popularity of "Long Vacation", Japanese society has also set off a trend of boys learning piano. There are nearly half as many students in adult piano schools as usual, and many housewives are keen to send their children to piano classes on the grounds that boys who can play the piano will be more popular in the future.

The owner of this music store was also able to capture popular elements, so he posted a huge poster of "Long Vacation" outside his window.

The poster shows Sena playing the piano, and there is a sentence on it: All art in the world is based on music.

"Bang." At this time, someone suddenly hit Mizuhara Yui from behind. Mizuhara Yui turned around and found that it was a short boy.

"Sorry." The boy lowered his head and said.

"It doesn't matter."

The boy nodded and continued to walk forward with his head lowered, his steps seemed a little heavy.

Mr. Ito got on the tram. He was lucky. Not long after he got on the tram, someone got off the station, so he took advantage of the opportunity and sat on it.

At this moment, his mood was as dark as the sky in the rainy season. He was a chemistry student who had just experienced a lovelorn. When he was in the laboratory, he made a mistake in a key experimental step because of his mental trance, which led to the failure of the experiment. The instructor scolded me like crazy.

Now, he feels that life is extremely bad.

He worked hard to get into a university in Tokyo, but life as an adult was so difficult. Whether it was academics or love, he felt powerless to cope with it. The tutor was also fierce. He originally dreamed of becoming a chemist, but now he had a psychological shadow on chemistry. When he smelled the smell of alcohol in the laboratory, he would have a physiological reaction of wanting to vomit.

Maybe, I should find a higher building and get it done...

Sitting on the train, Mr. Ito was thinking.

Forget it, it's better not to cause trouble to others, the body that jumped to death is disgusting. When the time comes, those who collect the corpses will definitely complain: death is not far behind. This man is a loser who will cause trouble for others, whether alive or dead.

Just find a cliff and jump off. If you die, you will be eaten by wild beasts. Just die quietly.

Mr. Ito sighed, then looked up and saw the advertisement on the tram.

There are many advertisements posted on the tram, and the most eye-catching one is an advertisement for a TV series, the recently very popular romantic drama "The Longest Vacation".

Since the first episode of this drama, Kozo Ito has been watching it. Every week on the ninth day of the lunar month, he will sit in front of the TV on time and count. Isn’t today the lunar day?

Forget it, let’s wait until the show is finished to talk about suicide. Ito Kōzo thought to himself.

Mr. Ito returned home, and at eight-fifty in the evening, he sat in front of the TV on time.

There are many reasons why he likes this TV series. The cuteness of Arima Guixiang and Kono Aoi is naturally one reason, but the more reason is that he sees his own shadow in Sena.

This is certainly not a narcissistic statement. Struggling in a big city, having people you like but dare not get close to, having lofty dreams but still being unable to reach them...

There are actually thousands of Sena and Konan in this world.

This episode was equally good, and he was very curious about what kind of ending Sena and Konan would have in the end.

Even if it is a pure love drama, the suspense of Japanese dramas is very high. Don't think that the male and female protagonists will definitely be together in the end. Many romantic dramas end with the male and female protagonists ending up separated from each other. When they meet again, one of the children will be upset.

At this time, a gentle and powerful voice came out from the TV, reciting a line: "When you can't do anything well, take it as a long vacation given to you by God, don't force it, don't be anxious, and don't be meaningless. Work hard, put your body and mind into nature, and you will definitely get better soon.”

Mr. Ito was stunned for a moment. This sentence seemed to be just for him.

The person who wrote this drama seems to understand his situation and his anxiety. Although this sentence is definitely not for him alone, the current Ito Kozo does get comfort and strength from this sentence.

He thought of the slogan on the promotional poster for "The Long Vacation":

Life doesn't have to be sprinting every moment. When you're feeling down, treat it like a long vacation.

Mr. Ito smiled, and suddenly a tear slipped down his cheek.

"Thank you..."
