Tokyo: Bubble, but the system is Sengoku.

Chapter 122 Collaborating on a girl group?

"I'm quite optimistic about it."

"I think Akimoto-san's idea is very visionary!"

Although the Oni Club disbanded after only a few years, it had already become a social phenomenon.

At its peak in 86, it was an unparalleled opportunity to make a fortune.

Anyway, investing now will definitely not result in a loss.

Furthermore, girl groups have many more money-making projects to come. This time, I've collaborated with Akimoto, which gives us a foundation for working together in the future.

He puts in some money, then uses his own reputation, and the return is, of course, even more money.

For Sato, it was definitely a sure-fire way to make money.

He has his own management company, so it would be great if he could persuade Akimoto to join him in forming a group.

He's very interested in projects that can generate continuous income simply by talking about them.

"That's easy to say."

Hearing Sato praise him like that, Akimoto Yasushi's expression improved.

Although he was six years younger than him, he was a junior with social standing, so the praise carried more weight, and he even considered him a close friend.

"That young lady..."

"Feel sorry."

"Well, Sato-san really spoils his little sister."

Judging from Sato's firm tone, it was clear that other conditions were negotiable, but Saori was absolutely out of the question.

However, the other party is also an insider and knows a lot of inside information. It's normal that he doesn't want his sister to enter the industry, especially considering that his sister has a bright future.

"After all, she's my younger sister."

"That's right."

"However, before that, I'd like to ask, what exactly can Mr. Sato offer?"

"Money and my reputation."

Sato was prepared.

He can't be said to be rich right now, and his fame is only at the level of a rising star; he hasn't yet firmly established himself as a top-tier celebrity.

But there's still time before a girl group show takes shape, isn't there?

It's not like he can't borrow money from a bank. As for his reputation, both of his filming projects are going very smoothly right now, and it doesn't seem like he's too far away to become a leading actor in a prime-time drama. He definitely has the qualifications to be in the spotlight.

"Um..

"7

Akimoto Yasushi was aware of the other party's current situation and did not underestimate what Sato said.

After all, the other party does indeed have this potential.

The main reason is that he himself is the president of a company, so there are fewer restrictions, which allows them to have more areas to cooperate.

Bringing the other party in would indeed be beneficial to both parties' development in the long run.

Not to mention that he, like Sato, had only just begun to gain some fame, and both sides still needed to continue preparing.

However... if something happens to Sato and his reputation plummets, it will be a very troublesome situation.

Seeing Akimoto's silence, Sato spoke up.

"Excuse me for asking, are those people outside your apartment building from your side?"

"yes...?"

Akimoto Yasushi, whose thoughts had been interrupted, snapped back to reality.

"Saori has already left; we can withdraw the rest of the people now."

'

""

Upon hearing this, Akimoto Yasushi understood what the other party wanted to express.

The other party was able to perfectly evade their own people's surveillance for several days, without anyone noticing Sato and Saori's presence.

It's important to know that Sato will most likely be working and living his life these next few days.

If Sato is indeed seen, his people will definitely report it.

If someone has the ability to remain unseen and yet knows they are being monitored, it means their counter-surveillance capabilities are ridiculously strong.

He wouldn't gamble on Sato's character, or on whether the other person would go looking for women.

Human nature is unreliable and easily changed.

So what he was betting on was ability, and the boy's ability did indeed show him the value of the bet.

"I will evacuate them."

"However, I also need to inform the other partners."

"thank you."

Sato nodded; the deal was basically settled this time.

The objective has been achieved.

However, at twenty-five, Akimoto was already more mature than he had imagined.

"But I wonder what the relationship is between Sato-san and Kikuchi-san?"

Finally, Akimoto couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"The relationship between the former tenant and the landlord."

Sato stood up after explaining.

"Then I won't bother you any longer."

"Aren't you going to eat something before you leave?"

Akimoto asked.

"Sorry, I still have work to do."

"Okay, take care."

Watching the boy's departing figure, Akimoto sighed.

"Sato-san, this is quite unexpected."

"Um."

The secretary, who had been silent until now, also nodded.

"But is his relationship with Peach really just that kind of thing?"

"I don't know, but since he said that, that's the relationship."

"As long as no one finds out anything."

Akimoto shrugged.

He wasn't interested in this kind of relationship, and he wouldn't go so far as to leak it to a magazine or his agency.

He has no benefit in saying this, nor does he have any evidence.

Why do these thankless and exhausting things?

"But what he said made some sense. Let's go, find a chance to arrange a meeting with those old guys for me."

"I believe they will still be interested in Sato's matter."

"Yes."

As Akimoto Yasushi finished speaking, neither of them lingered there any longer.

As time went by, filming progressed smoothly, and soon the premiere date of the TBS crime drama arrived.

However, unlike usual, now that he had a television, Sato no longer needed to borrow someone else's television.

Moreover, he wasn't the only one in the room.

"I don't know what the ratings will be."

Xiao Chuan, who was holding the boy, looked at the guy in front of him with a very nervous expression.

After all, the viewership ratings of these shows are also a standard for whether the TV station can make money and for judging Sato's value.

It's not as convenient now as it will be in the future; ratings statistics are still quite troublesome.

"We'll find out tomorrow. Let's see."

Sato comforted him.

"You're so calm!"

Xiao Chuan gave a coquettish remark, but only hugged the person a little tighter.

On the night the TV series aired, the two did nothing, rested early, and arrived at the company early the next morning.

It was the same familiar office.

"Are they lacking enthusiasm?"

Sato sat down in the boss's chair in his office and asked.

"Is there?"

Ogawa avoided the boy's gaze, looking somewhat guilty.

"No?"

Sato chuckled and countered with a question.

"Probably not?"

Ogawa looked even more embarrassed.

"All right."

Seeing this, Sato stopped teasing the other person and simply shrugged, looking at the fax machine.

"Every time I sit here waiting for a fax, it feels like I'm getting my exam results."

"Yes, that's right."

Ogawa nodded.

Although we know there's probably no problem, no one can say for sure until the transcripts are released.

While you can check the answers to an exam, the reactions of the audience and fans are much harder to predict.

Even though Sato thought he had a good understanding of the wind direction, it didn't mean he wasn't nervous at all.

"If this time's result is better than last time, I bet there will be other losers!"

Ogawa's words broke the silence in the office.

GG represents a huge income.
