Just when Koizumi Kyoko was thinking about her thoughts, a waitress wearing a kimono who was leading the way suddenly stopped in front of a private room and turned around. She respectfully asked the group of people to wait here, and then she was alone. Opened the door and walked in.
This move immediately woke up Kyoko Koizumi from her wild thoughts and made her understand that the big star Sayuri Yoshinaga should be in the box.
As for the waitress, why did she ask them to wait here? She was probably afraid of being rude, so she went to make a notice first.
This is a normal rule in some famous families.
Although Yoshinaga Sayuri is not from a famous family, she has a famous husband on the list, and she is a top star in the entertainment industry. This is their home court, so it is normal to ask for scores.
After Koizumi calmed down, raised his head and smiled, he suddenly noticed something was wrong with Cao Zhiqiang's expression.
Before Koizumi Kyoko could ask, Nakamori Akina asked first: "Eh? Zhiqiang, what's wrong with you? Why are you frowning?"
"Ah, it's nothing." Cao Zhiqiang immediately smiled, "I just feel that the other party is a bit pretentious."
Hearing this, Nakamori Akina nodded thoughtfully: "That's right.
But Zhiqiang, Yoshinaga-senpai has a high status and a lot of energy. It is normal to have this kind of pomp. I hope you don't mind, and don't show dissatisfaction.
After all, we are going to work with her next, so we can’t let the relationship become tense. "
"Don't worry." Cao Zhiqiang chuckled, "Of course I understand. When we meet again, I promise to greet you with a smile."
Well, of course that's an excuse.
The reason why Cao Zhiqiang looked wrong just now was because he could see clearly that the room in front of him was the same room where Sayuri Yoshinaga used tricks to push him down.
This room is a suite, with one room inside and one room inside. There is also a high-end bathroom and lounge at the end. It is not just a place to eat.
Now, Yoshinaga Sayuri wants to see herself and others here, and she doesn't know whether it is intentional or unintentional.
Of course, Cao Zhiqiang is most afraid of the other party making trouble.
But then I thought, Yoshinaga Sayuri should be more afraid of their relationship being exposed than she is.
Therefore, there is a high probability that this is Sayuri Yoshinaga's exclusive room.
Also, not only can you eat inside, but there are also lounges, wine rooms and even bathrooms, which are obviously not open to the outside world.
It is very possible that this is really a place for Yoshinaga Sayuri's private use.
"Don't worry, Zhiqiang." Nakamori Akina continued to smile.
"Yoshiyong-senpai actually has a very good personality and takes good care of juniors in private. However, she is more serious about her work and sometimes can be a little rigid and strict, but that is only in official working conditions.
In private, she apologizes for her strictness and is approachable.
As for the previous strike, I heard that it was not her intention and was caused by her new agent.
It was precisely because of this that after Yoshinaga-senpai learned the truth, he fired the agent, apologized to me seriously, and offered to cooperate with us.
So, Zhiqiang-kun, please don’t have a bad feeling towards Yoshinaga-senpai because of this.
I believe that this is not the original intention of Yoshinaga-senpai. It is most likely to protect the face of her husband, Mr. Okada. "
Speaking of this, Akina Nakamori sighed and said: "It's not that easy to marry into a famous family. There are so many rules and you can't do whatever you want."
Cao Zhiqiang frowned: "Mingna, this is Sayuri, no, did Senior Yoshinaga tell you?"
"That's right." Akina Nakamori nodded, "That's what Yoshinaga-senpai told me. She apologized to me first and then said that. I think she is very sincere and what she said should be true."
"Haha, right." Cao Zhiqiang smiled and said nothing.
Well, Cao Zhiqiang now understands that Sayuri Yoshinaga not only acts on the set, but also acts everywhere in life.
Indeed, Sayuri Yoshinaga has a very good reputation. It can be said that everyone says that she has no airs and is approachable. She is gentle and respectful even to an ordinary cleaner.
However, Cao Zhiqiang knew that this was all an illusion.
Maybe there really is that kind of good person who looks the same on the inside, but this is definitely not Sayuri Yoshinaga.
Come to think of it, how could a woman who had experienced a sad childhood and was forced to act early on be so loving?
So the truth is that Yoshinaga Sayuri has a bad temper in private, she also likes to play tricks on others, and even has very strong desires.
If it weren't for the fact that my body wasn't strong enough and stronger than the average person, I probably wouldn't be able to satisfy the other person.
Also, Sayuri Yoshinaga appears to be in love with her husband and does not care about the fifteen-year age difference, but in fact she is just acting.
The truth is that Sayuri Yoshinaga's husband, Mr. Okada, is actually incompetent. The two of them are just a couple on the surface, and there is no real relationship between them.
It's just that Taro Okada's family does have a lot of influence, which is why Sayuri Yoshinaga doesn't dare to mess around.
Otherwise, Sayuri Yoshinaga would have made a mess in private instead of looking for him secretly.
To put it bluntly, Yoshinaga Sayuri is willing to satisfy his craving for Cao Zhiqiang in private. Besides Cao Zhiqiang’s good looks, is he also easy to handle?
After all, Cao Zhiqiang is just a foreign visitor. There is no hard backing here. With Sayuri Yoshinaga's ability, he can be manipulated at any time.
If it weren't for Cao Zhiqiang's abundant capital later, and he took advantage of Sayuri Yoshinaga's strong desire, and Cao Zhiqiang was talented and had a good IQ, it's hard to say what the future would be like.
But now, it is better to cooperate and win-win.
Simply being an underground lover of an old woman will not last long and is not safe.
But if it is tied up with interests, it can be long-term and safe.
Therefore, after Cao Zhiqiang and Yoshinaga Sayuri were struggling here, they decisively proposed a series of cooperation plans, including letting Yoshinaga Sayuri join Aiyin Office.
So far, Yoshinaga Sayuri has her own office, dedicated to serving herself.
This is because Yoshinaga Sayuri itself is the biggest brand and does not need to rely on any agency to provide work.
No way, Yoshinaga Sayuri is the top female star in Japanese film and television dramas at this time, and her influence even exceeds that of people like Takakura Ken.
Most people only know that Sayuri Yoshinaga is Japan's top star, with constant film appointments, and is a model worker among actors, very diligent and prolific.
But few people know Yoshinaga Sayuri's true status and strength in the film and television industry.
In fact, with the help of her husband Taro Okada, Sayuri Yoshinaga has long become one of the top bosses in the Japanese film and television industry. Even if she does not act now and simply lives behind the scenes to open an agency, she can still make a lot of money.
Even the Burning Project agency run by Ikuo Subo, which later became the top company in the Japanese entertainment industry, was completely inferior to Sayuri Yoshinaga during this period.
Otherwise, it would not have been so easy to terminate Kyoko Koizumi's previous contract for just a small amount of money, and then join his Aiyin Office.
There was no way, the Burning Project, which became a giant later, is now just a little-known medium-sized firm called BURNING PRO.
The founder of this company, Ikuo Sufang, was only slightly established in the industry at this time. He was in the stage where he was begging his grandfather and grandma everywhere, and he was far from being able to dominate the world with one hand later.
Even the later Johnny & Associates firm was still only a small and medium-sized firm at this time and was not powerful.
At this time, the truly powerful agency in Japan's entertainment industry was Watanabe PRO. Be it Burning or Johnny's, these small and medium-sized agencies had to beg for food under Watanabe PRO, which was a humble life.
However, even PRO Watanabe, who is the strongest in the Japanese entertainment industry at this time, is actually nothing and is still not highly regarded by people in the entertainment industry.
The reason for this is mainly related to the times.
At this time, Japan's entertainment industry, that is, the entertainment industry, was actually monopolized by large companies.
For example, Warner, JVC, Sony, etc. These large groups and companies often have specialized departments to handle artists' affairs, and these departments have the same functions as those private agency firms.
But the problem is that private economic firms are just agents and have no channels themselves. If you want to find channels, such as releasing records and making movies, you have to go to large groups that have control of channels, such as TV stations, film companies, record companies, etc. wait.
In other words, the period from the 1960s to the 1980s was the era of large groups and the era where channels were king.
Those film companies, record companies, etc. have their own artist business.
For example, Masashi Sada was signed to JVC, or the entertainment department of Victory's record company.
Private economic companies began to come forward, which actually benefited from the bursting of the economic bubble and the rise of the Internet.
Because in the Internet era, old movie companies, record companies, etc. are gradually disappearing, especially record companies, almost all of which have withdrawn from the stage of history, and then gradually developed into website music.
The advancement of technology, coupled with the arrogance of established large companies and their lack of attention to promoting artists, and of course a series of other reasons, have allowed agencies such as Johnny's and other agencies that mainly target artists to come forward.
However, with the advent of the Internet era, record companies, film companies, and TV stations will be the most affected.
It is precisely because of this that actors like Sayuri Yoshinaga, who are very influential in TV stations and film companies, can still remain popular even in the 21st century, and they are still attracting all kinds of fresh movies.
Such ability is not only a matter of appearance and works, but also purely a matter of the strength behind it.
No one really thinks that Sayuri Yoshinaga is so powerful after the 21st century just because she is senior and has made many films, right?
You know, there were many female stars who were under contract with Yoshinaga Sayuri, and there were also those who made more films than her. But among those actresses who were under contract with Yoshinaga Sayuri, how many of them can compare to Yoshinaga Sayuri?
not a single one!
Is it possible for such a person to be called White Lotus, a good old lady?
You know, in the Japanese entertainment industry, good guys will never get far.
Because being a good person means that you are weak and can be bullied. If you were really like this, you would have been eaten up by others.
But as for Yoshinaga Sayuri, there has been no bad news since she got married. As long as the news is related to her, it is all good and good things. They either praise her for her elegance, praise her for being approachable, or say that she is strong and hardworking, anyway. Come as good as you like.
There is only one possibility for this situation, that is, Sayuri Yoshinaga is too strong and has never failed. All the media in Japan dare not say bad things about her, not that she has no dirty information.
Sayuri Yoshinaga is so awesome in 2023, let alone in the 1980s.
In fact, Sayuri Yoshinaga in the 1980s was almost the king of Japanese actresses.
Sayuri Yoshinaga once told Cao Zhiqiang privately that the reason why she chose to continue acting instead of imitating others and focusing on being the boss of a firm was because she did not know how to run a business, only acting.
In fact, it’s not that Yoshinaga Sayuri has never tried business, but has tried many, but most of them failed.
In the end, Sayuri Yoshinaga realized her abilities clearly after repeated failures and simply abandoned all investment projects, leaving only Yoshinaga Cuisine.
This is because Yoshinaga Sayuri has a bad stomach, doesn't like going out to eat, and is not good at cooking, so she opened such a restaurant.
Rather than a restaurant, it is her private lounge, and it can also be regarded as a base for her social circle.
Yes, Yoshinaga Cuisine is a restaurant in name, but in fact it is a club whose purpose is to make friends with celebrities inside and outside the circle.
To this day, Sayuri Yoshinaga has met a lot of celebrity wives thanks to this Yoshinaga cuisine.
There are many official wives, lawyer wives, chaebol wives, female celebrities, etc.
It is this circle of wives that makes Sayuri Yoshinaga's status rock solid.
Originally, others with her status and energy would have long ago chosen to retire or enter politics.
For example, Ryoko Nakano, who plays Mayumi, if she had one-third of the energy of Sayuri Yoshinaga, she would have joined politics long ago.
It's a pity that Nakano Ryoko couldn't squeeze into Sayuri Yoshinaga's circle despite all his efforts, so he wasted his time in the end.
It is said that the reason why Ryoko Nakano couldn't get in was not because Sayuri Yoshinaga had any objections to her, but because many celebrities' wives didn't like her.
The reason why he didn't like her was because Nakano Ryoko had an affair with an official and became his lover.
What a coincidence, that official's wife is a member of Sayuri Yoshinaga's circle of wives.
It was precisely with the help of Yoshinaga Sayuri that Nakano Ryoko's later development was not smooth, and he had to get married early and gradually fade out of the Japanese entertainment industry.
Otherwise, with Nakano Ryoko's popularity in the 1970s, how could he suddenly disappear after 1983?
To put it nicely, such as being too tired, wanting to do more meaningful things, etc., that's all bullshit.
Isn’t that just offending someone?
And it was Sayuri Yoshinaga who suppressed her.
In fact, when Cao Zhiqiang asked Nakano Ryoko to schedule MTV, if Sayuri Yoshinaga hadn't already had a crush on Cao Zhiqiang and deliberately let him go, Nakano Ryoko would never have had the chance to star.
But Nakano Ryoko can only do this. If she wants to continue making TV and movies, there is a high probability that she will not be able to do it.
Therefore, the true character of a woman like Yoshinaga Sayuri is definitely not something people like Nakamori Akina and Koizumi Kyoko can understand.
Without him, the rank difference is too big.
Thinking of this, Cao Zhiqiang sighed secretly.
I don’t know whether it is a blessing or a curse for him to be involved with someone like Sayuri Yoshinaga. (End of chapter)
