Chapter 337 Noriko Sakai
In Tokyo Hot office.

At the age of fifteen, Noriko Sakai had a temperament that had a subtle balance between youthfulness and sophistication.

At this moment, he was sitting on the sofa with great respect, whispering something with Michiko Nishiwaki sitting opposite him.

Seeing Zhai Yuan pushing the door open, the girl looked over curiously, revealing her young and fresh face with lively eyes.

From makeup to clothing, everything was obviously carefully matched, and it can be seen that she attaches great importance to this interview at Tokyo Hot agency.

"She made a mistake later. She must have been deceived by a villain and led astray!"

Zhai Yuan went up from the 91 Entertainment office on the sixth floor to the Tokyo Hot office.

The first time I saw Noriko Sakai, I immediately felt indignant.

He subconsciously glanced at the three inches below the belly of the young and lovely girl.

Rumor has it that a lifelike butterfly was later tattooed there, but unfortunately I have never seen it with my own eyes.

"Brother Yuan, this little girl is Noriko Sakai, the one you asked me to contact."

Liang Zhichao came over and introduced them with a smile. He pointed to a couple next to Noriko Sakai and said in a low voice, "Those are Noriko Sakai's parents. Her father is a gangster of the Yamaguchi-gumi. It is said that he has a high rank in the gang."

"Oh." Zhai Yuan replied casually, glancing at the couple sitting on the other side of the sofa, who were also looking at him. He turned his head and smiled at Liang Zhichao and said, "If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have noticed that there were two more people."

Michiko Nishiwaki came over with Noriko Sakai, smiling.

"Fazi, this is President Zhai Yuan."

A look of surprise flashed across the eyes of fifteen-year-old Noriko Sakai, and she suddenly lowered her head towards Zhai Yuan with such force that her long hair that was draped over her shoulders flew onto her face.

"Hello, President Zhai Yuan. My name is Noriko Sakai. I am fifteen years old and have been in the industry for a year. My representative works include participating in the drama "Harukaze Ichiban", the radio program "Tokimeki Pajamas MARI NORIAKI Talk Time", and the second Peach Club Idol of "Momoco" magazine..."

Zhai Yuan didn't understand what the girl was saying, but from her firm tone, he could tell it was an opening speech that had been prepared in advance.

He turned around and asked Michiko: "What did you say, sister?"

Michiko smiled and touched Sakai Noriko's head, then walked up to Zhai Yuan, took his arm and said, "Noriko-chan will introduce her debut experience to you. She performed very well and got several planned works in just one year. Sun Music plans to train her as an idol star."

With Michiko's explanation, Zhai Yuan roughly understood.

The company that Noriko Sakai had previously signed with was Sun Music in Japan, a company that specializes in discovering and training teenage idols. When Noriko Sakai first debuted, she participated in Sun Music's Beautiful Girl Image Contest, but was eliminated in the finals. The president, Hidemasa Aizawa, felt that the girl had potential, so he set up a special award for her and made an exception to sign her into the company. After that, she also got good resources. Although she has been in the industry for less than a year, her resume is more extensive than many of her predecessors.

This was also the reason why she had the confidence to reject the signing invitation from Tokyo Hot Agency at the beginning, as she thought Liang Zhichao was trying to trick her into filming an Adult Video.

But now the situation is reversed.

Chen Shilon and his 20 billion yen investment in the big screen movie were selecting the second female lead, and she was only qualified to be selected.

"Understood~"

Zhai Yuan nodded and asked, "Have you talked to the Sun Music agency she signed with? If Noriko Sakai comes to Jiuyi Entertainment to film, I don't want her to have another idol signed with another company."

A fifteen-year-old girl, about the same age as Yu Feihong, was a potential reserve for teenage girls. It would be a waste for her to stay in Japan.

Nishikie Michiko stuck to him and said, "If you are sure you want Houko-chan to star in "Hiroshima Monster", I will go to Sun Music Agency to talk to them tomorrow."

Zhai Yuan pondered for two seconds and felt that democracy was still necessary and that one person should not have the final say.

So he turned around and asked the director Wang Pangzi behind him: "Director, is this girl acceptable?"

Wang Jin knew downstairs that this was Mr. Zhai’s chosen candidate. Even Fa Zi’s name was written in the script. How could he have any other opinions? He even skipped the audition process and nodded repeatedly to show his agreement.

"OK, since the director has agreed, then you can go talk to that Sun-something agency tomorrow and buy her idol as well."

Things that can be solved by spending money are not a problem for Zhai Yuan now, but he doesn't want to be blamed.

Then he added to Michiko: "If the other party asks for too much, let your boss talk to them again."

Michiko nodded thoughtfully.

Zhai Yuan's concerns are not without reason. The news that "Hiroshima Monster" was invested with 1 million Hong Kong dollars, which is about 20 billion Japanese yen, has also been rumored in the Japanese industry. Who knows whether Sun Music Agency will raise the price and take advantage of Mr. Zhai's fat sheep to slaughter.

Michiko thought about this and said, "For a new idol like her, with the initial resources and current popularity, the contract can be done for about 20 Hong Kong dollars. If the other party offers more than 30, I will let the big guys come forward. Is this okay?"

Zhai Yuan nodded and said yes. He became interested and asked Michiko a few more questions about the ways Japanese entertainment companies package and train teenage idols.

I learned from Michiko that the current methods of idol training in Japan are probably just offline auditions, TV programs, and magazine packaging, which are not much different from those in Hong Kong.

As for girl idol groups, there are almost none, but there are several idol male singer groups similar to Little Tigers.

The reason is that the aesthetic of Japanese girl idols is still based on the gentle Yamato Nadeshiko image, just like the jade girls in Hong Kong. Therefore, the South Korean style of singing and dancing is not suitable for them.

Girls' Generation still has the first-mover advantage~
Zhai Yuan and Michiko spoke in Cantonese, and Noriko Sakai, who was standing in front of them, could not understand anything.

The girl pursed her lips slightly, her eyes showing a bit of nervousness and uneasiness, fearing that the president of the Hong Kong consortium in front of her would cancel her chance to act in the movie with just a few words.

It was not until the senior who developed in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, Ms. Nishiwaki Michiko, turned her attention back to her.

Noriko Sakai immediately lowered her head slightly, as if listening to a lecture.

"President Zhai is very satisfied with Fazi-chan and hopes that Fazi-chan can participate in the film "Hiroshima Monster."

Michiko spoke to the little girl in a gentle tone.

Noriko Sakai looked up in surprise, looked at Zhai Yuan and asked excitedly: "Red bean paste?"

"Red beans, red beans~"

Zhai Yuan smiled and nodded at her. Looking at the young girl in front of him, which overlapped with her later miserable image in his memory, he felt that his burden of saving her had become heavier.

It is clear and transparent that those who must be saved must be saved!
Here, Noriko Sakai just showed her excitement about being selected.

On the sofa behind me.

The couple, who had been paying attention to what was happening here, stood up, put on shrewd and mercenary smiles on their faces, and walked quickly towards them.

Zhai Yuan and Michiko looked at Noriko Sakai's parents and greeted them with a smile.

However, he did not notice that as his parents approached, the joy in Noriko Sakai's eyes suddenly dimmed a little, and a hint of vague worry appeared.

"Our Fazi-chan was chosen to star in Chen Shilong's movie, right?"

Fazi's mother came over to confirm, holding up two fingers with a beaming expression, "The one with an investment of over 20 billion?"

Michiko Nishiwaki smiled and nodded in agreement. Just as she was about to praise Noriko Sakai, she was immediately interrupted by the other party.

The woman couldn't wait to ask, "How much money can she get?"

Michiko frowned and saw something from Noriko Sakai's lost expression.

She turned to Zhai Yuan and said, "This woman is Fa Zijiang's stepmother. She asked about the salary right away."

"Stepmother?"

"Yes, and he's the third one."

Cow batch.

Zhai Yuan's eyes swept across the family of three.

Noriko Sakai lowered her eyes and suddenly became depressed. Her stepmother asked about her remuneration with a smile on her face. Her biological father, Sakai Mikogenjo, also had an expectant look on his face, hoping to get a price that would satisfy him from Michiko.

Even though he didn't know Noriko Sakai's family situation, Zhai Yuan could probably guess something by looking at the situation.

All I can say is that this father, Sakai Mionjo, a backbone of the Yamaguchi-gumi's Izu group, fits my stereotype of people in the society.

Noriko Sakai, the daughter of a gangster, is not as glamorous as Michiko.

No wonder I chatted with Noriko Sakai for a long time just now, but the couple just sat on the sofa without moving, and immediately pounced on me when I saw that I was going to talk about money.

Zhai Yuan shook his head and said to Nishixie Michiko, "Give her a higher price for this drama, maybe 100,000."

Michiko raised her eyebrows. A hundred thousand dollars of pay was indeed high for a new actor to play a supporting role.

She knew more about the Yakuza family than Zhai Yuan did. She had just had a private chat with Michiko and could tell what the family was like.

Michiko squinted at her stepmother, and her initial enthusiasm was gone from her tone: "For the film "Hiroshima Monster", Noriko-chan should be able to get 200 million yen in salary."

"Two million? You invested two billion, and you only give us this much?"

Most of the smile lines on Fazi's stepmother's face disappeared instantly, and then she showed a mercenary smile again like a chameleon: "How about 1000 million? For 1000 million, we will let Fazi go to film this movie."

After saying that, he pointed to a photo of Akimoto Satoshi hanging on the outer wall of the office. In the photo, Teacher Bai's breasts were half exposed.

Fa Zi's stepmother glanced at Zhai Yuan and said with a wry smile, "I know that President Zhai is from Hong Kong. If you are willing to pay more, Fa Zi can go to Hong Kong with him to film a movie~"

(I failed to add more words, there are only 6,000 words left, I will try harder tomorrow...)
