Chapter 87 In the lounge
After comforting Masahiko Kondo, Mary Kitagawa immediately called the person in charge of Johnny’s agency’s itinerary management.
“What’s going on in Tetsuko’s room? Was Masahiko really cut in line by someone else?”
The person in charge replied, “That’s right, they just informed that there were temporarily additional guests, and Kondo-san was postponed to the second session.”
“Can you contact TV Asahi to exchange it?” Marie Kitagawa asked.
“President, this may be difficult.”
The person in charge answered very carefully, because he knew how much the queen of Genesis liked that Masahiko Kondo.
“why?”
Mary Kitagawa was a little displeased. Although the strength of Johnny’s now is not as good as that of later generations, he is still considered a mountain in the entertainment world, and not everyone can bully him.
“Because it was Shogakukan who contacted and jumped in line, and the guest who participated in the recording was Hideki Hanyu.”
“It’s him……”
Hearing the names of Shogakukan and Hanyu Hideki, Marie Kitagawa frowned.
Of course, she didn’t want to provoke Xiao Xiaoguan, an old comprehensive publishing house.
As for Hideki Hanyu, he was also a person who could not easily make grudges.
If Hanyu Hideki is just a pure writer, there is no need to be too jealous, but the problem is that Hanyu Hideki is not a pure writer.
Just to offend Shogakukan and Hideki Hanyu at the same time for the recording sequence of a talk show, it is not worthwhile to think about it, even if she likes Masahiko Kondo very much.
Knowing the cause and effect, Mary Kitagawa hung up the phone and contacted Masahiko Kondo again.
“Mahiko, I’ve already made it clear, so let’s leave it at that for now.”
Kondo Masahiko really didn’t expect that his dear “mother” would change her attitude so quickly when she looked like she wanted to stand up for him just now.
“Mom, I don’t want to delay the recording.” Kondo Masahiko said unwillingly.
“Masahiko must be obedient. The line jumping was arranged by Shogakukan, and the guest is Hideki Hanyu.”
Marie Kitagawa still wanted to save some face for Masahiko Kondo, and she didn’t want to say clearly that she couldn’t fight against Shogakukan and Hideki Hanyu for you.
After finishing speaking, regardless of Kondo Masahiko’s reaction, he hung up the phone directly.
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Masahiko Kondo’s face turned livid. He didn’t dare to bear grudges against Mari Kitagawa, but kept the name Hideki Hanyu in his heart.
……
On October [-]th, just after ten o’clock in the morning, Hideki Hanyu and his assistant Reiko Uemura came to TV Asahi to participate in the recording of “Tetsuko’s Room”.
Like this kind of talk show, sometimes many episodes of the show are recorded in one day, so the show that the audience sees may not be the most recent recording.
For example, guests with publicity needs generally need to be recorded in advance to ensure that they can be broadcast in accordance with the publicity time.
It is actually very rare for someone like him to temporarily jump in the queue to record and play. It can only be said that the reputation and status here are different from the first time he came.
In terms of status in the minds of female audiences, even the host Tetsuko Kuroyanagi is not necessarily better than him.
Since “Tetsuko’s Room” is not a program with a large number of participants, the backstage rest room is not in the form of separate small rooms, but only one large lounge.
Hideki Hanyu participated in the program last time, he was the only one recording that day, and there was no one else in the break room.
This time he temporarily jumped to the front of the line, so when he arrived at the rest room, he found that many people had already come inside, three of them were artists who participated in the recording, and the rest were accompanying staff.
Looking at at least two or three people followed by others, and looking at the lonely Uemura Reiko behind him, Hanyu Hideki wondered if it would be a bit shabby.
But after thinking about it, these guests are all entertainers, so there are naturally a lot of makeup, styling, assistants, etc. What a writer would do with such people.
Entering the rest room, Uemura Reiko, who had contacted TV Asahi in advance and had done her homework, whispered the identities of the three artists in his ear.
After Hanyu Hideki finished listening, he cast his eyes at the well-known scumbag at home and abroad, and walked straight towards the other two female artists.
“Good morning, Ishikawa-san, I’m Hideki Hanyu.”
The first female artist he greeted was Yuko Ishikawa, she was wearing a red dress, she was beautiful, and she looked quite temperamental.
He doesn’t have a deep impression of this Yuko Ishikawa, and the later generations are not well-known in China. He only remembers that she is a female singer-songwriter.
Ishikawa Yuko is older than him and made his debut earlier than him, so he can be regarded as his senior.
In fact, with his current status and social status, he didn’t need to care about the relationship between his predecessors and artists.
But Hanyu Hideki is not the kind of character who is arrogant and arrogant after all, and he doesn’t mind doing some superficial etiquette.
Of course, it is very important that the other party is a beautiful woman.
However, his behavior really surprised Ishikawa Yuko.
Yuko Ishikawa came to “Tetsuko’s Room” this time to promote the single “Sinderella Samar” (Cinderella’s Summer).
I only found out when I came this morning that the scheduled recording time had been changed because someone jumped in line temporarily.
I was a little unhappy at first, after all, the artist’s time schedule is very tight, and if there is a delay here, the other side may be affected.
But when she inquired, she realized that the person who jumped in line was not an artist, but Hideki Hanyu, a very famous writer this year.
From his debut to the present, Hideki Hanyu first caused a storm by relying on “idol writers”, and then an editorial article triggered a public response from the Ministry of Health and Welfare.
In addition to being on the best-selling author list, the publication of the novel swept the sales list and attracted reports, and the recently discussed serialized novel “Love, Go Home”, it can be said that there is a lot of news.
Not to mention writers, even if they are popular idols in the entertainment world, there are few who can match this writer in terms of influence on public opinion. Naturally, it is impossible for Ishikawa Yuko to have never heard of it.
Ishikawa Yuko was still thinking about how to greet Hanyu Hideki when she met Hideki Hanyu during the recording program today, although she is considered a senior of Hideki Hanyu based on her debut time.
Not to mention Hideki Hanyu’s identity as a writer, a series of titles and a social reputation that she can look up to, just as the well-known president of Yunying Animation in the industry, Yuko Ishikawa dare not treat Hideki Hanyu as a junior.
So Yuko Ishikawa never expected that Hideki Hanyu would take the initiative to say hello to her.
Therefore, when he got up to respond, his tone seemed a little flustered.
“I am Yuko Ishikawa, very happy to meet Mr. Hanyu.”
Hanyu Hideki chatted briefly with the other party, then walked towards the second female artist.
And this female artist also discovered Hideki Hanyu, after seeing Hideki Hanyu say hello to Yuko Ishikawa, she immediately understood what Hideki Hanyu was going to do when she came to her.
Although she debuted earlier than Hideki Hanyu, considering the status and prestige of Hideki Hanyu, how could she dare to regard Hideki Hanyu as a junior.
Besides, no matter how conceited she is, she doesn’t think ordinary entertainers can compare their seniority with writers who are teachers of the people.
So when Hideki Hanyu walked in front of him, she stood up first and bowed to salute.
“Mr. Hanyu, good morning. I am Hiroko Yakushimaru.”
