Reborn In the Tokyo Bubble Era

   Chapter 441 Choose you and play the scene of life

  In Neon, Dimensional Culture and WanderStar are new forces.

  If it wasn't for the existence of Tao Zhiming and his energy, how could Dimensional Culture and WanderStar start to shake the pattern of neon entertainment?

  Toho, Toei, Shochiku, Nikko. Before Kadokawa Bookstore announced its entry into the film and television industry, these four were absolute giants.

   In the golden period of the 1970s, Toho focused on comedy, Shochiku focused on family dramas, Toei did period dramas, and Nikki was a youthful film.

   But after entering the 1980s, the ambitious Dongbao began to grab the jobs of other peers.

One of the big moves of    is to launch his own beauty pageant: Toho Cinderella.

"...In this way, five years ago, I participated in that competition and finally won the championship. It was called the first generation of Princess Toho." Sawaguchi Yasuko laughed at himself, "I thought it was the beginning of a new life, but I entered this game. The industry realizes what the real world looks like.”

   Tao Zhiming listened to her quietly.

"I remember that before I participated in the competition, I knew there was a bikini competition. Although I didn't have any confidence in my body, I thought it was only one of them. But during the competition, a younger sister was asked: 'Have you dated? How many boyfriends do you have?' Then the judge asked: 'What's your height?' The younger sister replied: '160.' At the scene, the judge looked at her with a laugh and said, 'I don't know which question is the answer to this question. .' After stepping down, she cried for a long time and finally withdrew from the game."

  Sawaguchi Yasuko said with a smile: "In the competition with more than 2,000 people participating, I finally won the first prize, is it still very powerful?"

   Tao Zhiming sighed: "Of course it's amazing."

   He also knew that since then, Toho has held several Cinderella selections, and only one Nagasawa Masami can catch up with her popularity. The last beauty of the Showa era was not blown out.

"But some seniors told me that those selected in beauty contests like me belong to idols. Idols are idols, singers are singers, haiyu is haiyu, entertainers are entertainers, and everyone has an essential job. Idols My job is to provide everyone with a favorite image. In this circle, idols are sometimes inferior to some outstanding entertainers. Probably because I am the champion, I got the job of Haiyu from the beginning.”

   In Neon, the so-called Haiyou generally refers to actors in film and television dramas.

Sawaguchi Yasukiko gently held his hand: "But I know what the experience of some other award winners in the same period is like. The year before last, Toho Cinderella selected the second year, the second generation of Meme Emi. Sauce, I was only 15 at the time, she, she…”

  Tao Zhiming felt that her hand was a little hard, and was speechless for a while.

   Later people were always amazed at the horror of Zhou Kingdom's entertainment circle, but everyone knew that Zhou Kingdom developed on the basis of neon experience. It's just that there are more unscrupulous chaebols on one side, and a multi-balanced consortium on the other.

  The market of neon is bigger and the consumption power is stronger, and the income of this line can be relatively stable. For the big names in neon, "reputation" is also very important in such a cultural environment, so they will always create a more secret and more stylish occasion and atmosphere.

   But after all, it is a circle of "beautiful women", how can most of them escape the rules?

Sawaguchi Yasuko calmed down and said: "I signed a contract, and I also have a starting point for haiku. Therefore, I will work hard to improve my acting skills and become a real actor! Don't ask me why I don't leave this circle, since I am already This profession, I must go on! I have been noticed by so many people, and fame is also my umbrella, isn't it?"

  Tao Zhiming admired her sober awareness.

"But, apart from being an actor, my other identity is a member of the club's contract." Yasuko Sawaguchi took a deep breath, "Sometimes, I can't decide my own itinerary. For example, the first time you meet my time."

   "...Is that so?"

"But after that time, because of the shooting of BravoSport's commercial and because of participating in the first Tokyo Fashion Festival, I met people from WanderStar and met Akina. Especially when I made a cameo role in "Golden Age", I met Rie-chan."

  Tao Zhiming looked at her in amazement: "Are you and Rie also friends?"

Yasuko Sawaguchi's eyes were complicated: "Yeah, didn't you teach her how to make more friends? That kid, you said at the time that you reprimanded her and told her not to participate in the selection of Dongbao Cinderella. I just found out. , It turns out that everyone who signed up in WanderStar has such a loose contract, and there is a president like you. She complained to me that it was difficult to study, and complained that you did not let her mother meet her more..."

   "...This kid doesn't know how to hide secrets?" Tao Zhiming had a headache.

  Sawaguchi Yasuko looked at him and said softly, "I know from her mouth that Sister Quan Shui secretly likes you, Sister Mingcai has been scolded by you, and Sister Asuka always wonders why you don't like such a cute girl as her."

   She paused before asking, "Do you know Takarazuka Opera Troupe?"

   "Of course... Kagawa-kun's mother was born in the Takarazuka Opera Troupe."

"He? He is indeed an actor who works very hard and has great potential..." Sawaguchi Yasukino recalled, "I heard that because you were his senior in Dongda, you supported him with all your strength and embarked on this path. Road. But what I'm saying is that Toho is also a shareholder of Takarazuka. And Takarazuka... is just another form of idol group."

   Tao Zhiming knew what she was talking about.

  The beauty of Takarazuka, because she was trained by a specialized music school, deliberately embarked on a higher-end line in terms of appearance, personality, etiquette, and style, and is recognized by the public as a high-quality marriage partner. But Takarazuka beauty can really enter the upper class as a wife, very few. Most people, in the end, actually embarked on the same fate of being raised as "caged birds".

"That's why I became curious about you." The look in Sawaguchi Yasukino's eyes softened, "A child like Rie-chan, a beautiful and talented singer like Quan Shui, and a famous singer like Miss Nakamori, you are so talented. There are many opportunities to get them, and few people can refuse you. But you don’t have them, not only do you not, but you never ask them to do anything unrelated to work. Except for creation and performance, it’s just learning. WanderStar's relaxed atmosphere, what are you doing for it?"

   "...Is it good to make money!" Tao Zhiming was speechless, "Does the outside world see me like this?"

"So I think... although you have a few women, you are a kind and gentle person after all, right?" Yasuko Sawaguchi murmured, "I don't know if I continue to refuse some of the club's demands, I will never be able to do it again. There won't be any chance. In fact, if it weren't for the high salary of Dimension Culture last year, my main job would probably be to accompany President Embankment on some trips. In fact, you have already saved me once."

  Tao Zhiming shook his head: "Don't think like that. I just fancy your fame, for the ratings."

   Another timeline doesn't have herself, isn't she still getting more and more popular?

   Thinking of this, his heart suddenly burst. Later, she never had any news of love, and she has never been married. I don't know if there are some unknown secrets.

   With the strength of Yoshiaki Ti, who was known as the world's richest man with 165 billion yuan at that time, did she really gain nothing from her?

   Maybe it is because he has thoroughly seen these things that he is only focused on improving his acting skills and taking the initiative in life.

Sawaguchi Yasuko smiled: "In short, now I want to go further on this path as an actor, and I want to avoid such worries and troubles. After thinking about it, WanderStar seems to be my best choice. Dimensional Culture , Pantao Pictures, Columbia Pictures, Mogami Studios, TV Tokyo... With your ability, sooner or later, you can become a platform like Dongbao or even better? If this is a deal, I should also be able to make money for you enough returns?"

  Tao Zhiming looked at her with a bright smile, looked at the blue sea, and said speechlessly: "What kind of love and pursuit are you talking about? Isn't this too unpleasant?"

Yasuko Sawaguchi looked at him quietly for a while, then leaned softly on his shoulder, and muttered, "This time, I can't make any mistakes. I don't have much time, and the club has arranged for me again. I have a lot of plans. It just so happens that I have curiosity, admiration, and desire to get close to you. This should be love. But I have a road I can’t bear and want to finish, and I don’t want to be reduced to a pure plaything. If it was you, it might just satisfy all of this, right?"

   "...Since you think you can earn enough for me, I will sign you, and you can still pursue perfection in love and marriage."

"You don't know me..." Yasuko Sawaguchi closed his eyes and whispered, "It could have been like this. But after listening to those two songs yesterday and hearing this song again today, I was really moved. I know that I am a What kind of person, I only want to be tempted once, so I will only be tempted once."

   Tao Zhiming really doesn't understand this logic, is it because she is terrifyingly rational?

   He was silent for a long time, and finally asked: "In that case, what is the difference between what you understand and become a plaything?"

  Sawaguchi Yasuko closed his eyes and smiled: "Because I don't think you are that kind of person, otherwise, why would everyone in WanderStar be safe and sound."

  Tao Zhiming felt a little cheap: "Why don't you pursue it?"

"Because after seeing Emi-chan crying like that, I have decided to experience this part of my life as a drama." Yasuko Sawaguchi opened his eyes and sat up straight, looking at him, "From After that, my whole life was ready to be dedicated to drama. And for this part of the relationship, I decided to have the purest way. Only move once, only experience one person. If it's just a deal, then only a deal Once. If it's love, it doesn't matter how long the love lasts. No matter what kind of love it is, right now, you are my only choice, and it's the one I want to take the initiative to make."

   "...I really don't know you." Tao Zhiming didn't know if she was an idiot or what.

   "Such a script is rare, isn't it?" Sawaguchi Yasukino smiled sweetly, "The script is decided by me."

  Tao Zhiming looked at her with a bit of a play-like madness. This heroine is really a bit powerful, after all, she has such a face.

   Thinking that he also has a mentality like a game life, he couldn't help saying: "Now, I'm really tempted by you."

   "Really?" Sawaguchi Yasuko's eyes showed a hint of mischief.

  Tao Zhiming nodded earnestly: "Take my life as a play, that's what I've always done."

   "So in your script, there are many heroines?"

   "I can decide my life anyway."

   "I think so too."

   "But I'll have demands of you too."

"I have that too."

"what?"

  Sawaguchi Yasuko said seriously: "I have decided my life like this. At least when facing me, find a way to make me feel that love is a very beautiful thing!"

  Tao Zhiming looked at her to confirm, and then finally smiled: "Then let's elope!"

  …

  Tao Zhiming just disappeared from Tokyo. I heard that after his private plane took off, he just went to Hawaii first, and then he no longer knew the direction.

   The phone can still be contacted, saying that he is very tired recently and wants to take a vacation.

   Qiu Yuankang had no choice but to make his own decisions and determine which recording version to use in the end.

   With Tao Zhiming's key position, there are many people who want to contact him.

   Tsutsumi Yoshiaki wanted to ask him what the inside story of the National Railway Branch's listing plan in October.

   Qingtian Yongchen also wanted to ask him what it meant to let himself select a group of the best geisha to participate in a movie.

   Hashimoto Taro also wanted to ask him if he could contact some people and donate more money in accordance with the procedures to help the upcoming Senate election in late July.

  The unwilling Uno Zongyou also wanted to ask him, I heard that the Tao family has a lot of power in the neon media world, and what kind of price must be paid to suppress the scandal that is constantly fermenting.

   Kinoshita Xiufeng wanted to ask him even more: "Are you going to ignore the Gate of Heaven project?"

"Brother Xiufeng, you have arranged so much money, don't you have to use the money to build this project? The budget is so generous, you are very happy to enjoy the hospitality of the builder, and you can arrange for people to pay attention to the progress and quality of the construction. what."

   "But you disappeared so suddenly, it's very frustrating, isn't it? Did something big happen again?"

   "Really not, I'm in a relationship."

   "Talk..." Kinoshita Xiufeng was numb, "I told Ueda-kun to go!"

   "Don't make trouble, there is no satellite phone after getting off the plane. I am near the South Pole."

  "..." Kinoshita Xiufeng was completely numb.

  Antarctic...Why don't you go to the sky?

   Tao Zhiming is really near the South Pole, next to the Strait of Magellan, in Tierra del Fuego.

  In a rented private house, the fireplace was burning brightly.

  Sawaguchi Yasuko put his hands on his chin, and watched him continue to write on a notebook with a pen in his eyes.

  【…The best way to attract a person is to live independently as you think is your best, instead of deliberately flattering and flattering…】

【…do you know? From the day I met you, every step I took was to get close to you. 】

  【…Now, I am only so close to you. I stretch out my fingertips and I can touch your heart. 】

  【…But sorry, the air is wrong, the air is between us, building a wall, transparent, invisible, but it is real. 】

  【…Goodbye, Watanabe-san. Thank you so much for your care over the years...]

  Tao Zhiming put down the pen, looked at the line of words and said with a sense of loss: "Then she walked away firmly, leaving behind the most beautiful back, and walked into the row upon row of houses and into the crowd."

  Sawaguchi Yasuko murmured, "I like this story..."

  Tao Zhiming stretched out his hand, touched her cheek, looked at her beautiful face and said, "If you come to play, it will be very moving."

  Sawaguchi Yasuko tilted his head slightly, and rubbed his eyes closed on his palm: "President Tao, will there be that transparent wall between us?"

   "Try it?"

  Sawaguchi Yasuko opened his eyes and looked at him, remembering that he had accompanied him across most of the world to come here, just the two of them.

   He talked about so many topics and did so many things.

   There is also the script written here, the silhouette of him in front of the desk at night, the breakfast he made in the morning, a song he sang, and the good night before going to another room every day.

   "...Are you seriously acting in this scene?" Sawaguchi Yasuko couldn't help asking, because she was really touched, this is someone who has spent so long with her like an ordinary person.

   Apart from the transportation and the cost of renting this house, he was in a restaurant in the town during the day, earning a daily salary by cooking food from Xia Guo, and he would accompany him when he came back at night.

   And then without touching himself first.

   In his words, do not want to be a transaction.

   Hearing her question, Tao Zhiming smiled and shook his head: "It's not acting. Since I started preparing to play my own life, this is the first time I want to really touch a person's heart, purely."

   "That's also acting." Yasuko Sawaguchi put his arms around his neck, "I know your identity and ability, how can you be pure in what you've done for me?"

   "I don't care." Tao Zhiming's mind flashed the face of Sakai Quanshui after laughing and crying, and said seriously, "I want to do this."

  Sawaguchi Yasuko stared at him, and after a long time he said softly, "Thank you. Tao Zhiming, I was really moved."

  Tao Zhiming laughed: "I like you to call me that."

  Sawaguchi Yasuko's eyes lit up with a different light, and opened his lips: "I think... a wall without air. Come into my heart and see you."

   The fire in the fireplace was roaring in the coldest winter, the sofa was removed, and the quilt was spread on the carpet.

   The last beauty of the Showa era was like a moth, and began to burn himself completely in front of this fire.

   I heard that Tao Zhiming went to Sakai Springs on vacation because he was "tired". After spending many days, he finally finished writing the last lyrics.

   On the third day in late July, Taro Hashimoto walked into the Senate with a grim expression.

   In the re-election three years ago, 26 people ran and 25 won.

  Today, there are also 26 candidates, how many will win?

  The leader of the opposition party, Doi Takako, had a ruddy face, sharp eyes, and even his lips were painted more vividly than ever.

   Soon after, the ticket was issued.

  The quick report came: out of 26 people, only 3 people won the election, and half of the total seats in the Senate were lost.

  Hashimoto Taro frowned in frustration, clenched his fists and propped his chin in thought: What will happen next?

   And Takako Doi stood up in ecstasy and ecstasy, clasped his fists and shouted to the media: "The mountain has moved!"

   At this point in time, Tao Zhiming's private jet finally reappeared at the Tokyo airport.

  Irie Yuta was waiting on the tarmac, the door of the car was already open.

  Sawaguchi Yasuko, who took Tao Zhiming's hand and walked down the gangway, looked even more charming, but Tao Zhiming had more trivial beards.

  Tokyo was still at the hottest time, Tao Zhiming touched his beard, smiled and said to Sawaguchi Yasuko: "When I shave it off, it will feel different!"

   Sawaguchi Yasuko looked at him and realized that what he said...not just about the image...
