Tokyo: My obsession with China led me to become the king of Japanese entertainment.

"That's it, it's officially finished!" Takizawa Hideaki breathed a sigh of relief, barely suppressing the urge to give the boy, who was five centimeters taller than him, a good whack on the head.

Now, the two of them are in the same boat.

After repeated negotiations on the contract details and multiple legal reviews by the professional lawyer hired by Jun Sakurada,

Finally, just now, Jun Sakurada's maternal grandfather, Kinichiro Sakurada, signed his name on the Jr. contract as his guardian, declaring that from today onwards, Jun Sakurada is a member of the 2019 Johnny's Jr. class.

Hideaki Takizawa felt he must be crazy to make such a huge gamble on a boy he had only known for a few days.

But on the other hand, he felt that his choice was not wrong.

Some people are born with an extraordinary temperament, and this is particularly evident in Jun Sakurada.

Even disregarding his intelligence, his physical attributes almost guaranteed that if he were to enter the idol industry, he would start as a top star.

Not to mention, this kid's brain is practically monstrous compared to his peers.

Takizawa Hideaki was already smart enough, but he was almost forced into a passive position by this boy, and was almost led by the nose from beginning to end, handing over the most generous terms.

So, thinking about it the other way around, since he can fool me so easily, the others in Johnny's, my competitors and enemies... will also be manipulated by him!

This investment is worthwhile!

Meanwhile, at the very moment Kinichiro Sakurada signed his name, a long-lost mechanical voice suddenly appeared in Jun Sakurada's mind:

"Beep! Detected that the host has actively joined the largest local evil cult, 'Johnny's'!"

"As an ambitious brat aspiring to become the supreme demon god, joining the local demonic cult and absorbing its nourishment to strengthen myself is a wise choice!"

"But a true man is born between heaven and earth; how can he remain subservient to others for long? I urge you, host, not to forget your original aspirations, to strengthen your military and prepare for battle, and to be ready at any time to take your place!"

"Unlock achievement: 'Join the Demonic Cult', reward: 'Succubus's Disguise Technique', which grants the host extremely strong disguise abilities and can perfectly mimic the temperament of any personality."

"Due to changes in the host's path to becoming a demon god, the questline has been updated..."

The system's dense information, along with a massive amount of disguise and performance techniques, flooded into Sakurada Jun's mind. Even though he had recently experienced this kind of empowerment twice, he couldn't help but feel a splitting headache at this moment.

But after he pulled through, he couldn't help but want to laugh out loud.

If he had any lingering doubts about signing with Johnny's Entertainment, a notorious and dangerous organization, those doubts have now completely vanished.

Are you kidding me? Avoid his attacks? I've got a cheat code!

Since we have the cheat code, we should go to the most dangerous place, reap the greatest profits, and then... set off the most dazzling fireworks!

The day your Uncle Run achieves enlightenment will be the day Johnny's Entertainment ascends to the highest level!

I've succeeded, Taoist Master... just kidding.

In short, feeling confident because of the dog system's performance, Sakurada Jun became much lazier, to the point that his grandfather couldn't help but slap him on the head, much to the delight of Takizawa Hideaki, who watched from the side.

"Then, the future of this child is entrusted to Takizawa-san." Sakurada Kinichiro pressed Sakurada Jun's head and bowed solemnly to Takizawa Hideaki.

The old man's gaze was somewhat complicated, but it eventually turned firm.

"No, no, we have high hopes for Sakurada-kun's potential and will do everything we can to nurture him into a future superstar!" Takizawa quickly helped the grandmother and grandson up.

You know, if we're talking about seniority, this old man in front of us could practically be...

Ahem, let's leave that aside for now.

"Next, I will help you with your high school transfer, accommodation, and training. Although you have strong talent and learning ability, you still need some refinement."

Hideaki Takizawa's gaze toward Jun Sakurada held a hint of intensity.

Because Jun Sakurada's intelligence was so remarkable, Hideaki Takizawa forgot that he was initially interested in the kid because of his unparalleled talent as an idol.

Johnny's Entertainment isn't a construction site; they don't have high requirements for singing and dancing. As long as it's good enough, it's fine.

Given Jun Sakurada's learning ability, he'll probably be able to start taking on some high-level on-screen work in a month or two at most.

At that time, another new star will rise...

"Understood." Jun Sakurada nodded casually.

Although I don't like living conditions in Tokyo, I'm fortunate to have plenty of savings, so I don't have to worry about my quality of life.

At least for the next two years, rice prices in Tokyo haven't gone up, and the yen hasn't plummeted to rock bottom, so he can at least enjoy a period of peace.

As for the future... I'll just convert the money into RMB or USD and save it...

"Your situation is special, so I won't say much, but there's one thing you must remember:" Takizawa Hideaki suddenly became more serious.

"What?"

"Stop going to those bastards' scrambled activities organized by Moriuchi! Think about your age," Takizawa Hideaki said irritably.

What he feared most was that Taka, Sato Takeru, and their gang of playboys would lead Sakurada Jun, who was not yet sixteen, astray.

For a teenager like this, if he were to be exposed for even one of these three things—smoking, drinking, or engaging in promiscuous behavior—his idol career would be effectively halved.

"I'm so busy with my own life, who has the time to hang out with those people!" Jun Sakurada retorted irritably.

He had only met those people by chance, and showing them respect was a way of respecting their status in the underworld.

Is it really necessary? Even Sakurada Jun himself couldn't figure out why he would take the initiative to come up to him.

"More important than that, there are two things right now that you need to help me with, Takizawa-nii." Sakurada Jun ignored him, calling him "nii" as he changed the subject.

Hideaki Takizawa was almost laughing in anger. He had just signed the contract and was already ordering him around. Anyone who knew the situation would understand that he had signed a trainee, but anyone who didn't would think that he had hired a CEO!

"First of all, do the seniors of V6 have time? I need to schedule a time to talk to them, especially Nagano-senpai." Sakurada Jun's gaze gradually became serious.

V6? Hideaki Takizawa was somewhat surprised.

Why would Jun Sakurada be interested in a veteran boy band that was formed 24 years ago and has long passed its peak?

Is it because V6 is one of the core forces of the neutral faction?

"Let me ask a few of the senior colleagues later. What about the second thing?"

Sakurada Jun looked up: "Do you still remember Kun-ge?"

"You mean, the original version of the dance you performed during your audition?" Hideaki Takizawa nodded.

"That's right, his popularity hasn't reached its peak yet. There are still plenty of opportunities to capitalize on it. With a little effort, creating a couple more viral videos with millions of views shouldn't be a problem."

"On the condition that you help me, Takizawa-nii..."

……

In April 2019, as the revelry of the "little haters" intensified, the helpless operators of "Only Because of Brother" had no choice but to resort to their last resort: a lawyer's letter.

I thought that after all this, the haters would finally shut up, but who knew that shortly after the lawyer's letter was sent out, someone jokingly threw out a link, saying, "Go ahead and sue this guy if you dare."

When Brother Chicken clicked in, he saw an excessively handsome young man and an excessively handsome middle-aged man seriously reacting to two versions of the dance.

One is the original version, while the other appears to be a real-life interview scene.

Meanwhile, the handsome Zhong Deng solemnly and professionally commented on the performances of the two men in Japanese, seemingly without any aggression towards Kun Ge.

Upon further investigation, I was almost so shocked that I revealed my true identity.

Leaving aside that boy, the eloquent Nakamoto is a former top star in the Japanese idol industry, now the vice president of Johnny & Associates, Hideaki Takizawa. And in that interview, the examiners were all the senior executives of Johnny & Associates...

Now the operators didn't dare send a lawyer's letter anymore. They quickly used their main account to humbly thank Mr. Takizawa for his insightful guidance under the video, and said they would definitely reflect on their mistakes and improve...

It quickly became a hot topic among netizens, and the account named Hakimi Studio - Sakurada Jun, which even had the vice president of Johnny & Associates personally appear on camera, also saw its popularity soar.

However, that's a story for another time...
