Time has entered August, and before the official filming of "Symphonic Lover's Dream" begins, Hayato Minakami participates in a project called "Sakura Island's Most Handsome Male College Student Selection·Magazine Special Selection".
In Yingzhou, there are various beauty pageants every year, including professional model competitions and amateur beauty pageants on campus. In general, the "most beautiful" and "most handsome" on campus are chosen every spring.
This year's situation is special. After this year's various campus beauty pageants have ended, in the hottest season of summer, twenty magazines jointly organized the "Yingzhou Most Handsome Male College Student Election·Magazine Special Selection" "Contest, the judges of the competition are various magazines, and the participants are Hayato Minato and college models who are contacted by major magazines on weekdays.
When he first learned of the news, Mizuna Hayato thought it was Nao Fujiwara who had used her near-billion dollar cash-making ability and unfathomable background to recruit so many magazines to participate in this plan.
But that's not the case.
Although Fujiwara Nao can be said to have great hands and eyes, she can't do anything she wants to do. There were only two or three magazines related to her family background, and she went to these two or three magazines in the beginning.
First, Fujiwara Nao sent the photos of Hayato Minakami to the mailboxes of the editors-in-chief of these magazines, and agreed on a date for the magazine shooting. After the shooting was completed, the magazine was suppressed for publication, and then several magazines jointly came forward to contact several other magazines with similar capabilities, and jointly discussed a plan to publish a cover issue together to make big news.
Then during the gradual filming process, large and small magazines in the industry who received the news began to join the negotiations, and eventually joined or gave up the plan until it finally reached such a scale.
This kind of "snowball" plan sounds simple, but it is quite difficult to implement. Because this plan ultimately formed a "star-making plan", and the biggest beneficiary is still Mizuno Hayato, the person who was "made into a star".
For Fujiwara Nao to be able to do this, the first and most important thing is of course the unique conditions of Hayato Minakami. Even if there is no need for any relationship, most magazines will be happy to have this face appear on the cover of their own magazines.
Secondly, there are several magazines that have close relationships with Fujiwara Nao, and they are also among the best in the industry.
Eventually, when this plan reaches a certain scale, many magazines with weaker capabilities will be "snowballed" to join in. Because when everyone participates and all eyes are focused on this plan, the ones who will be crushed on the final release day are these weak magazines that did not participate.
Of course, at that point, it was Nao Fujiwara's turn to choose a suitable magazine. After all, too much is not enough, and magazine covers should not reject everyone.
Therefore, during the negotiation process, Fujiwara Nao only reached a certain concession with several large magazines in the first step. After that, everything went smoothly. Finally, after various negotiations and exchanges, after weighing the balance, she participated in this plan. The number of magazines was set at twenty.
However, the concession here is not a bad thing for Hayato Minakami himself. After all, most of the magazine's requirements are such as "In a certain period of time in the future, Hayato Minakami needs to participate in several shootings for this magazine alone." The magazines that have reached these terms with Fujiwara Nao are magazines that are out of reach for many young models, and are very good resources for Hayato Minakami.
When he finally understood how Fujiwara Nao did this, Hayato Minakami felt that he had underestimated this white and beautiful young lady. Although she sometimes went offline, and although she was good at using her background, this was not the case. It doesn't mean that she is not very capable.
Are these the elite children educated by a big family?
...
Yokoya Kotona, 16 years old, is an ordinary female high school student in Sakurasu Kyoto. Next to her is her classmate and good friend, Mari Hiraga.
Although Kyoto is also a big city, especially many ancient buildings have been preserved, the unique traditional atmosphere of Sakurasu attracts tourists from all over the world every year. But for these two people, daily life in Kyoto is really too plain and boring.
The biggest pleasure for the two of them every week is to go to the large bookstore at Kyoto JR Station on Saturdays to buy a few popular fashion magazines, and use this to look forward to their life in the Tokyo metropolis after graduating from high school.
"Marriage, why are there so many people in the bookstore today?" Yokoya Kotona asked in confusion.
"I don't know. Is there any celebrity coming to film the show?" Mari Hiraga was also a little confused, but her eyesight was better than that of Yokoya Kotona: "I saw a lot of people lined up against that wall. It was crowded. Come over and take a look?"
"Yeah, yeah." Yokoya Kotona agreed.
The two of them held hands and squeezed to the wall on the right side of the bookstore door with great difficulty. Although there were some girls in front of them chattering and watching, it was enough for them to see clearly.
Originally, the wall on the right side of the bookstore was always covered with posters for various new book releases, as well as the bookstore's own flags, but it was different today.
Looking around, I saw a uniquely handsome face printed on a nearly two-meter-long large poster in the middle. This was a pure close-up, with only the area above the neck, and his sword-shaped eyebrows under the slightly messy bangs. He looked at all the girls gathered in front of him seriously, making the high school girls and shopping women scream repeatedly.
The remaining empty space on the wall is filled with various magazine covers with the same face. If you look closely, you will see that the magazine names in each photo are different.
One person fills up a wall.
"Wow...this is too exaggerated..." Yokoya Kotona murmured.
"But it's really... so handsome!!!" Mari Hiraga swallowed, her eyes almost turned into the shape of love hearts and she held her hands in front of her chest.
"This! This can't be the bookstore's event today!" Yokoya Kotona shouted excitedly, pulling Mari Hiraga's clothes with both hands and said: "Can we see him later?!"
However, Yokoya Kotona's fantasy was shattered by the bookstore clerk in the next second. Perhaps because she was asked too many questions, the bookstore clerk took out a large speaker and played it in a loop at the entrance of the store:
"Mizuna Hayato-san on the poster will not appear in our store today, but all the magazines in which he appears are available for sale in our store. And for the convenience of our customers, our store has packed a complete set of 23 volumes of Hayato Minato's debut commemorative magazine. , welcome to purchase.”
