"I'm in Tokyo, and this is some kind of movie star comeback system?!"

Chapter 133 You're from Johnny's

After exchanging pleasantries, the executive producer handed Sakamoto Yu a draft outline.

"Mr. Sakamoto, this is the outline of today's interview. We've thought of two main directions: one is from the role to the real self: driving the Sakamoto Valley, and the other is behind drifting: an actor's all-or-nothing gamble."

Which one do you think is more suitable?

Or you can choose neither. Just tell us which direction you'd like to discuss, and we'll cooperate fully.

Sakamoto Yu flipped through the pages, quickly glancing at them.

"Let's go with the second one, but the title doesn't need to be so sentimental."

"There's one more thing," Uchida asked in a low voice, "If it's convenient for you today, I'd like to invite you upstairs for a chat after the recording."

Uchida added, "Director Watanabe said he wanted to talk to you in person about TBS's Game Awards this year, and some potential future collaborations."

Hitomi Ono listened the whole time, and then stepped forward to politely decline: "I'm really sorry, but Sakamoto-san can't discuss any collaborations while the manager is not here."

Upon hearing the polite refusal, Uchida paused for a moment, then smiled and said that he hadn't thought it through.

Uchida immediately stood up and led the two men this way: "This way, please, you two."

By the way, Mr. Sakamoto, coffee or tea?

We can also send someone downstairs to buy an iced Americano; it'll be there in five minutes.

Sakamoto Yu replied, "An iced Americano is fine, thank you."

Uchida nodded with a smile, then turned to AD and instructed, "Go and keep an eye on the coffee machine. Freshly ground, iced, no sugar."

Next, led by the executive producer, Yu Sakamoto and Hitomi Ono entered another VIP lounge next to CStudio to wait for the interview to begin.

Not long after, AD delivered Sakamoto Yu coffee.

About ten minutes later, someone came over and quietly suggested that recording could begin.

Hitomi Ono waved to the two newcomers.

Nishikawa and Saito quickly followed.

The recording of the program went smoothly and was completed in just over an hour.

The entire process was conducted according to a pre-set outline, with questions and answers given one by one.

During this time, Sakamoto Yu was approachable and always had a gentle smile on his face.

After GG airs, this interview will become new material for public discussion.

At this time, Sakamoto Yu had two works that had not yet been broadcast or released.

Maintaining popularity and exposure in this way is just right.

During the Q&A session, as agreed upon by Watanabe and the TV station, Nishikawa and Saito were also given a chance to appear on screen.

After it was over, the newlyweds waited in the hallway.

The executive producer and Sakamoto Yu were chatting.

Hitomi Ono followed beside Yu Sakamoto, occasionally deflecting some awkward remarks for him.

CStudio is on the fourth floor, and the corridor is about the same width as the first floor. Diagonally opposite is the artist's dressing room and waiting area.

Flower baskets from fans were also displayed at the entrance.

The flower basket with "Johnny's MAGICWIND" written on it is the same as the one on the first floor.

Saito didn't notice and bumped into someone while turning around to talk to Nishikawa.

The flower basket fell over, making a sound that was neither too loud nor too soft.

Saito hadn't paid any attention at first, and just as he bent down to help her up, a pair of brown leather tassel ankle boots suddenly appeared in front of him.

The boot shaft extends to the ankle, with two neat tassels hanging down the side. The toe is rounded and adorned with a silver buckle.

"You hit him?" The voice was somewhat childish, but the tone was full of arrogance.

Saito looked up and saw that the person's appearance matched the one on the flower basket card; it was Johnny's idol, accompanied by his manager.

Saito paused for a moment, then said, "I... I didn't mean to."

"I'm so sorry!" Saito knew that Johnny's was not someone to be trifled with, so before the other party could speak, he lowered his head first: "It was my fault for not paying attention, I'll help you up right away."

He bent down to help the flower basket.

The idol walked over, but he didn't ask for help.

"This was a gift from my most important fan, a gift for MAGIC WIND."

Naoya Mizuno started by asking, "Which agency do you work for?"

"TOP COAT"

"TOPCOAT?" Mizuno frowned in thought, having never heard of the name before, which reassured her somewhat.

The idol finally spoke, his tone not harsh, but each word grew increasingly heavy: "Do you know that this fan came all the way from Fukuoka by taking the overnight train?"

They brought it backstage early this morning, just so they could personally hand me the flower basket.

Saito opened his mouth.

"You think a simple 'I'm sorry' is enough?"

The atmosphere froze.

Nishikawa was too frightened to make a sound.

Saito was starting to panic. He had already apologized, but the other party still wouldn't leave.

Mizuno's manager stood to the side, looking down at something, glancing at her indifferently without saying a word or stopping her.

Mizuno is only 1.67 meters tall. Saito and Nishikawa are both adults and a full head taller than him, but they didn't dare to utter a sound in front of Mizuno.

A staff member walked by, glanced at it, and quickened his pace.

"Bow, bow and apologize, now!" the idol repeated, his tone even harsher.

Saito glanced around at the passersby, his chest heaving rapidly.

"I didn't do it on purpose—and I've already apologized."

The idol chuckled dismissively, took a step forward, and said, "Do you even know who I am?"

"You bumped into my flower basket first, didn't you?"

Mizuno's voice was perfectly controlled, and combined with the noise of the scene, no one would notice her except for those who were very close.

Saito's face flushed red, but he stubbornly refused to speak.

Nishikawa was so frightened that he stepped back, his lips moved but he didn't dare to speak.

At that moment, Sakamoto Yu and Ono Hitomi came out and witnessed this scene.

Ono Hitomi's expression tightened, and the two exchanged a glance before walking towards the group.

Mizuno had her back to her idol and didn't notice Sakamoto Yu.

When Nishikawa saw his senior walking towards them, his eyes lit up.

Saito saw it too, and although his expression was complicated, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Mizuno didn't notice, but his manager did.

Sakamoto Yu is currently riding high on his popularity and has a high profile in the industry. Anyone who pays attention to public opinion knows that he's a ruthless person who even knocked the teeth out of Bunshun.

The moment the manager saw Sakamoto Yu, his expression changed immediately.

He straightened up immediately, put down what he was doing, and quickly walked to Mizuno's side, tugging at his sleeve.

"Alright, alright, let's go." The agent's voice was very low. "Don't cause trouble here."

Mizuno remained motionless, pointing at Saito, "This guy won't apologize, so why should I be the one to leave!"

Mizuno shook off her manager's hand, pointed at Saito's face, and said, "Quickly apologize to MAGIC WIND! You'd better think this through; you've been disrespectful to Johnny's!"

Nishikawa's eyes reddened, and Saito's face turned pale.

As Sakamoto Yu approached, he heard the words "Johnny's," and his expression gradually turned cold.

The agent looked anxious, already thinking of a solution.

"Sakamoto-san!"

The voice came from behind the idol and his manager.

The chief editor of TBS strode over with a friendly smile on his face and extended his hand from afar.

He had just finished a meeting when he learned that Sakamoto Yu had finished recording a program, so he immediately came over to talk to him.

Only when I got closer did I realize that something was off.

But he didn't ask anything; instead, he shook hands with Sakamoto Yu first.

"Sakamoto-san, perfect timing! I was just looking for you."

The leader smiled and said, "Our station has a new program planned, and we'd like to invite you to be the guest for the first episode. What do you think?"
