Entertainment 2000: Supporting female stars will bring you a hundredfold return

Chapter 375 Tokyo's Passion (Please Subscribe)
Tang Wen, who has been targeted by Toho, is currently a guest at Tokyo Disney headquarters.

The president of the Tokyo branch is a blond, blue-eyed American who has always been arrogant towards Japanese people, and even his own subordinates.

They would scold you at the drop of a hat.

However, for Tang Wen, this "compatriot" from Hollywood...

The branch president showed him the utmost respect.

Japan Disneyland is a relatively important branch.

The manager here enjoys good benefits and a high position, far removed from the hustle and bustle of headquarters; it's a very good job.

He was able to get to this position because he had supporters at headquarters.

At the same time, he was very well-informed.

Knowing that Disney headquarters is facing a power transition.

The bet between current president Michael and Roy Disney has already spread among shareholders and senior executives.

This was done intentionally by Roy Disney.

The shareholders are now optimistic that Iger will take over.

The branch president was naturally aware of this news.

He had also heard that Tang Wen and Ai Ge had a close relationship.

After the huge success of "Pirates of the Caribbean," Tang Wen became an important partner of Disney.

We rarely run into anyone, but now that Tang Wen is in Tokyo, what are we waiting for if not to make good friends with him?

The branch president was very attentive.

In his private reception room, Tang Wen sat cross-legged.

To be honest, he didn't like sitting down like that.

However, it was difficult to refuse the other party's hospitality. Besides, the coffee table here was too low. If you were sitting in a chair, you would have to bend down almost completely to reach the teacups on the table.

After exchanging a few words, the Japanese female secretary entered and knocked on the door: "President, Mr. Tang, the tea ceremony instructor from the Urasenke school has arrived!"

Her tone was tinged with excitement, as if someone extraordinary had arrived.

Tang Wen turned his head, revealing his profile. The female secretary couldn't help but glance at him a few more times before slowly backing away.

Outside the door, a beautiful woman with a serene demeanor and lovely face stood quietly, holding a multi-tiered wooden box in her hand.

"Please come in."

The tea ceremony instructor took off his shoes, knelt on the tatami mat, and crawled in.

Tang Wen raised an eyebrow slightly.

The branch president chuckled, "The way she entered the room is said to be part of the Japanese tea ceremony."

The entire tea ceremony process is very complex.

Logically, guests should enter in the same way.

However, the president of the Disney division is, after all, a foreigner.

This female tea ceremony instructor wouldn't dare make such a request.

Speaking of which, the main responsibility of a female tea ceremony instructor is to teach students within the school.

It's only because Disney has a lot of influence that they could invite her to come over for tea.

The tea master's movements were neither too fast nor too slow; the entire process had been refined through countless trials.

Tang Wen didn't have much affection for this, always feeling that this whole thing overshadowed the tea itself.

All the bells and whistles.

It's much more pleasant to have two or three close female friends, brew some good tea with spring water, and casually savor and discuss it.

This kind of practice is common in various industries in Japan.

After things from China were introduced, they had to come up with a rather different, elaborate ritual, like drawing a tiger but resembling a cat.

Then, this ritual often obscures the matter itself.

Of course, this approach isn't without its advantages.

It at least makes them look high-end, and it can especially fool foreigners who don't know anything.

They can often be sold at a high price.

They chatted casually for a while, and when the female tea master finished brewing the tea, Tang Wen picked up a cup and took a sip.

Hmm, not as good as Yu Feihong's or Zeng Lipao's.

They usually drink tea.

In particular, Yu Feihong would brew some Gongfu tea when Tang Wen was around.

However, they often ended up in Tang Wen's arms after only a few drinks.

Tang Wen glanced at the female tea master's exposed legs.

I think her blue and white outfit is very pretty.

After asking a few questions, I learned that it's called a "hangdeng hakama," a modern modified version of clothing.

He then sent a text message to his assistant to place the order.

Order one set each for Xuan Meizi, Aunt Yu, Zeng Li...

Enjoying tea ceremony at home will be even more fun in the future.

Dinner was kaiseki cuisine.

The focus remains on process over food.

After parting ways with the president of the Disney division, he rubbed his stomach, feeling even hungrier, and simply instructed the driver: "Find a teppanyaki restaurant, I'll treat everyone to Wagyu beef."

The security personnel were all pot-bellied men, and since there was nothing to do that night, Tang Wen let them eat as much as they wanted.

He spent over 100,000 RMB in one go.

When Zhao Cheng, the security manager, saw the bill, he shook his head and said, "Next time, please take us to a buffet."

Tang Wen shook his head and laughed, "After we buy a ranch and raise some good beef cattle, we can open our own shop and eat however we want."

"That's a great idea. We can retire here with you and help raise sheep and herd cattle or something."

Tang Wen laughed loudly: "Fine, you want to eat me for the rest of your life?"

"It's about serving you for a lifetime."

"You've changed, Lao Zhao. You wouldn't have said that before."

Zhao Cheng smiled sheepishly.

I felt really comfortable staying with Tang Wen.

As the boss, Tang Wen never seeks excitement except in certain aspects. He acts cautiously, pays high salaries, and offers good benefits, so everyone wants to stay with him.

The following day, Tang Wen was doing promotional work in Osaka, Japan's second-largest city.

I received another invitation from Dongbao Company.

His new film, "The Outlaws," might need Toho to distribute it, and Tang Wen naturally agreed to visit the theater the next day to show his face.

On Dongbao's side, the vice president started thinking about candidates the night before last.

First of all, one female star is definitely not enough.

If Tang Wen doesn't like the other person, there's no way to make amends.

Three people together can easily lead to chaos, and the female celebrities might argue over opportunities.

It was nothing to Tang Wen, but Dong Bao thought it was not respectable.

Therefore, two people are best.

The two people should have different styles; they cannot be the same type.

As for whether hiring people will be unsuccessful.

The vice president was not worried.

As long as word gets out that you can get close to director Tang Wen.

I believe the Japanese talent agency will make a wise choice...

The following day, Tokyo.

Tang Wen visited the headquarters of Dongbao.

"Welcome, Mr. Tang!"

Not only did the president personally greet them, but the company's hospitality department also held a welcoming ceremony.

Tang Wen also gave him face by sending some records as gifts and praising Dongbao a couple of times during their conversation.

The two sides had a very pleasant conversation.

Toho's return gift was a collection of classic anime DVDs.

The Doraemon, Pokémon, and Detective Conan series.

Speaking of which, Japanese anime is Tang Wen's second favorite Japanese thing.

As for my first favorite...

It's a Japanese film with a simple plot.

The dinner will be held in a Japanese garden restaurant.

This place is not open to the public.

Today, Tang Wen and his group were the only guests. Tang Wen's security team came in early to check everything, and then nodded to Tang Wen when they came out.

The deputy director got out of the car and led the way, and the two walked into the courtyard.

Tang Wen's eyes lit up as soon as he entered the room.

In the white courtyard, under the eaves where wind chimes hang, stand three beautiful women dressed in kimonos.

Upon recognizing two of them, Tang Wen noticeably slowed his pace.

"Miss Tenkai, Miss Ozawa? I never expected to meet you two here, what a pleasant surprise!" Tang Wen did not hide his surprise, and his eyes were filled with amazement.

Yuki Amami had a cool and beautiful face, exuding a strong and assertive aura, and her charm remained undiminished.

Her slender figure and upright posture made her appear even more dashing.

The other one, Ozawa Maju, stood next to her and appeared rather petite.

She had only been in the industry for a short time and didn't have the same confidence as Yuki Amami; she wore a cautious smile.

Yuki Amami is a well-known Japanese actress.

He is also well-known in China.

26-year-old Maju Ozawa rose to fame with "Itazura na Kiss".

She had a bright and beautiful face, very much like Li Jiaxin whom Tang Wen had met before.

Tang Wenchong and the two women gave each other polite smiles.

Even Yuki Amami and Maju Ozawa, who are both famous handsome men from all over the world, cannot ignore this charm.

Her expression became more lively, and she bowed slightly before speaking in a voice that was both mature and gentle: "Welcome, Mr. Tang!"

Originally, the two women were filled with unease and negative emotions when they were suddenly notified to come.

The company didn't explain things clearly to them; they just said in a stern tone that they were going to host a very important person and that they had to cooperate.

On their way here, they had prepared for the worst.

Unexpectedly, this important figure turned out to be Tang Wen.

If I had known this would happen, I should have dressed more beautifully. Ozawa Maju's smile became increasingly sweet.

When Yuki Amami saw Tang Wen's surprised expression upon seeing her, she realized that her coming over might not have been at his request. Her resistance lessened, and her expression relaxed.

On the other side, seeing Tang Wen's undisguised expression, the vice president of Dongbao nodded inwardly, thinking that this time, they had found the right person.

In fact, Tang Wen was secretly thinking to himself: If he had known that Toho was so capable of making arrangements, he should have mentioned Nakamori Akina.

Although Nakamori is a Warner artist and it's unlikely he'll come over, what if he does?
The group entered the house and took their seats.

Tang Wen has already discussed film distribution and related collaborations at Toho's headquarters.

It's just a hospitality event now.

Tang Wen was enjoying his sake, surrounded by Yuki Amami and Maju Ozawa.

Even the icy beauty Yuki Amami has started whispering in Tang Wen's ear.

After making an excuse to apologize, the vice president of Dongbao left with his female companion.

Watching him leave, Tang Wen immediately acted as if he didn't know him well, put down his wine glass, and showed his considerate side: "I'm sorry, I don't think you two came here voluntarily."

The two women were taken aback, never expecting that such a young and promising director would apologize to them.

Ozawa Maju gently bent down and said softly, "Mr. Tang, please don't say that. This has nothing to do with you."

Yuki Amami spoke in a mature, sophisticated voice: "Yes, there's an old Chinese saying: 'When you're in the martial world, you're not in control of your own destiny.' Mr. Tang, there's no need to blame yourself."

Ozawa Maju said playfully, "Besides, I think this kind of encounter is quite dramatic, isn't it?"

The two women then comforted Tang Wen.

The three of them raised their glasses and drank a few more.

Tang Wen suggested changing locations.

The two women also felt uncomfortable here, mainly because they didn't even have a proper seat.

They are there as companions to serve the distinguished guests.

So, on Ozawa Maju's recommendation, the three of them went to a yakitori restaurant with a nice atmosphere.

For the two actresses who grew up in Japan, Tang Wen was a novel experience.

He was completely different from the Japanese men I usually saw.

He is of high status, confident and proud, yet gentle and considerate, even willing to apologize to them and take care of their feelings.

With the effects of the alcohol taking hold, and while Ozawa Maju was in the restroom, Amami Yuki, who had been single for many years, looked at Tang Wen and sighed, "If Tang-kun were to develop his career in Japan, I wonder how many people he would charm?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Wen's face suddenly loomed larger in front of her.

His handsome face was striking, and his pupils filled her with an air of dominance.

Yuki Amami had never been flirted with like this before, and she momentarily forgot to breathe.

"Can I charm you, sister?" The voice was ethereal, like the evening of a summer night.

But his eyes were surprisingly bright.

"I...you..." Yuki Amami, who had little experience in relationships, was completely flustered.

Tang Wen showed no intention of letting her go, and approached her little by little.

The two of them could be heard breathing.

The next second, without hesitation, he cupped her face and kissed her firmly.

I waited for Ozawa Maju to return in about ten minutes.

The room was empty.

Only one female bodyguard who spoke Japanese was waiting for her.

Seeing her stunned expression, the female bodyguard took out a room key and hinted, "Director Tang and the others had to leave temporarily. We can take you to the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo to rest first."

"This~"

She hesitated slightly, but did not refuse.

The female bodyguard forcefully extended her hand: "Miss Xiaoze, please."

As if given a way out, Ozawa Maju obediently left the restaurant and got into the car with her bodyguard.

Tang Wen was naturally not at the Imperial Hotel.

The suddenness of the event was overwhelming; the Imperial Capital Hotel was too far away, and going there would take too much time.

The assistant found a five-star hotel nearby and booked a room...

When Ozawa Maju arrived at the Imperial Hotel.

The aloof and sophisticated Yuki Amami has shed her icy facade and transformed into a beautiful serpent.

Tang Wen felt her intense passion.

Late at night, after waiting for several hours without receiving any contact information from Tang Wen, Ozawa Maju took a shower in frustration and was about to go to sleep.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Looking through the peephole, the person who had arrived was Tang Wen, carrying a bottle of red wine.

"Mr. Tang, I was just thinking of having a drink."

"I'm late."

"No, you've come at just the right time."

They both understood each other's feelings. Once inside, without even opening the wine bottle, they tossed it onto the table and eagerly embraced.

Enjoy the sky and sea first, then savor the pearls.

My friends in Tokyo are so welcoming.

But after dawn, looking at the man on the bed, Yuki Amami's face was full of complicated emotions: Last night, I was truly bewitched.

"What are you thinking about?" Tang Wen didn't want to give her time to think, so he reached out and pulled her into his arms.

"I think that Miss Zhenzhu is more in line with your aesthetic."

Tang Wen smiled, his peach blossom eyes looking at her with deep affection.

Only children do multiple choice questions.

Because of the two women's presence, Tang Wen stayed in Tokyo for an extra day.

The last stop of the promotional tour is Seoul, South Korea, so a day's delay won't matter.

Furthermore, in the United States, Lin Chih-ling has not yet reached an agreement with JP Morgan, and Samsung has not yet received any notification.

Having enjoyed Yuki Amami's gentleness, before leaving, Tang Wen picked up the phone and called the assistant to the president of Tokyo Disneyland, asking him to take care of Yuki Amami.

"Thank you, but that's not what I'm after." Yuki Amami said somewhat embarrassedly.

She couldn't quite explain why.

How could it be taken care of so easily?

She looked at Tang Wen's face, and it seemed that she was simply attracted to his face.

She couldn't refuse Tang Wen's kiss right away.

"I understand. Remember my contact information. You can contact me if you need anything."

Later that evening, Yuki Amami fell into a deep sleep.

Tang Wen took a shower and went downstairs to his room...
