Chapter 1022: God is not guarding his home
But this guy became more and more perverted because he asked for something but couldn't get it.
He secretly lusted after Matsumoto Keiko, secretly drank water from her cup, secretly ate her food, collected her hair, and secretly hugged her bedding.
But this didn't satisfy his craving, so he looked for an opportunity to relieve his anger.
Shooting hidden arrows, digging traps, packing baggage, wearing small shoes, and always making excuses to make things difficult during the filming.
Privately, he hooked up with another actress, Michiko Harada, to vent his dissatisfaction and lust for Matsumoto Keiko.
Although many people in the crew can understand the sinister intentions of Director Fukasaku.
But the Japanese are good at flattery and obedience. Due to the director's power and authority in the film crew, the crew can only pretend to be stupid and pretend not to know.
Even Ryoko Ishida, who is also a heroine, was not allowed to interfere too much after repeated reminders and persuasion from her agent.
In order to avoid direct conflict with the director, at most I can only indirectly provide the best help I can for Matsumoto Keiko.
So during the time when Ning Weimin returned to China, Matsumoto Keiko lived a very hard life.
Under the heavy oppression, I not only had to endure mental grievances, but also fell ill several times.
And even if the movie is finally completed, Matsumoto Keiko has not been able to completely get rid of the haze caused by this movie, and can truly get over it and usher in the days of breathing free air.
Michiko Harada, who became the director's new favorite because she climbed onto the director's bedside, completely betrayed Keiko Matsumoto in order to ensure that she would win an important award in the film industry this year and become famous.
This taciturn and shameless woman has completely forgotten the support and care Matsumoto Keiko once gave her.
Not only did he once try to act as a pimp, but he also repeatedly persuaded Keiko Matsumoto to give in on behalf of the director.
And after the film was completed, she also found reporters from entertainment tabloids to expose the conflict between director Fukasaku and Keiko Matsumoto on the crew of "The Man on Fire".
Then he openly sided with the leading director and tried his best to discredit Matsumoto Keiko.
It is said that she is not dedicated and is no longer the actress who is willing to sacrifice herself for art. She just wants to make money with her only fame.
And instigated the crew to also support the director and stand up together to inflict public violence on him.
Keiko Matsumoto was stigmatized by this woman, and her popularity among movie fans plummeted.
In the end, I had no choice but to apologize and hide away from the limelight.
Originally, after Ning Weimin returned, "The Man in the Burning House" was also released. Although the box office of this movie only barely met Songzhu's expectations.
But Keiko Matsumoto is still amazingly charming in front of the movie camera.
Despite the scenes that were not too revealing, her extremely high-level performance earned her character recognition from film critics and regained the hearts of many viewers.
As a result, these negative news gradually faded away.
I don’t know if it’s because Matsumoto Keiko’s acting skills are so superb that Harada Michiko feels threatened again, and feels that there are variables in winning the award again. Recently, she found a newspaper to repeat the same trick and break the news. .
Although there is no actual evidence, this method, the cooperation with director Fukasaku's recent public opinion, and the accusations from those who jumped out of the crew are so similar to the last time that it should be more than just a coincidence.
Ning Weimin was furious when he heard Ishida Ryoko's words.
After finally listening to it reluctantly, he couldn't help but ask Ishida Ryoko why he didn't tell him this kind of thing earlier.
However, he regretted it as soon as he asked this question. After all, he did not have this obligation.
And he's not stupid either.
I would also like to know that this kind of matter is related to the reputation of the actress, so Ishida Ryoko remains silent.
Even if Matsumoto Keiko has no intention, it is still a kind of protection for Matsumoto Keiko.
He blamed others for this. It was really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, and he did not recognize the good heart.
But what was even more unexpected was that Ishida Ryoko had a very high sense of morality and actually apologized to him immediately on the spot.
She said that although Matsumoto Keiko personally asked her to keep the secret, she could understand Ning Weimin's desire to protect Matsumoto Keiko, and felt that she had indeed ignored Ning Weimin's feelings.
And she was deeply ashamed of her timidity and cowardice.
Of course she also understands the cruelty of reality and how heavy a burden beauty is on a woman.
On the one hand, we must withstand the strict supervision of social public opinion on morality.
On the other hand, we must also beware of the unspoken rules to avoid becoming the plaything of the powerful.
She really felt that whether it was as an actress or as a friend, when Keiko Matsumoto encountered violence from public opinion.
Everyone should come forward and speak out for their justice.
But she actually didn't. She just buried her head like an ostrich, feeling very sorry for the trust of both of them.
Look, she actually put all the fault on herself.
So facing such a clear, kind, and strict self-discipline person.
Ning Weimin was naturally even more embarrassed to bully him. He felt more and more like a bastard just now.
For this reason, he immediately apologized for his rudeness and impulsiveness, and said that Ishida Ryoko had done a good job and that he and Matsumoto Keiko were lucky to have friends like her.
It can only be said that there are still real white lotuses in this world.
Ishida Ryoko, the song is beautiful and the person is even more beautiful.
It's a pity that like most beauties, she also has a bad fate.
She also failed to escape the curse of the prodigal son and fell in love with someone who was not worthy of her love.
It led to emotional misfortune, failed marriage, and has not been able to meet a good man so far.
What a shame.
…………
Just when Ning Weimin felt deeply sorry for Matsumoto Keiko and sighed for the beauty of Ishida Ryoko.
Matsumoto Keiko, who was experiencing great mental pain and under tremendous mental pressure, missed Ning Weimin beyond measure.
Matsumoto Keiko has been hiding in Nishiazabu's apartment alone for three days.
However, the longer I waited, the more I became restless.
For no other reason, the storm of public opinion showed no sign of stopping. Bad news came one after another, making her breathless and unbearable.
But this feeling of suffocation was not just caused by her feeling aggrieved by being slandered.
It does not come from the anger of movie fans or the fear of the impending loss of fame and fortune.
It wasn’t even because he was betrayed by Michiko Harada.
There has always been overt and covert fighting in the Japanese entertainment industry. Whether it is a director or an actor, sometimes it is inevitable to act despicably in order to compete for opportunities to get ahead.
Matsumoto Keiko is not the first person to encounter this kind of thing.
Since she became famous, she has seen this kind of warmth and warmth in people and the warmth of the world for a long time.
Understand that in Vanity Fair, no one can avoid suffering like this one day. It is not because these things have been anticipated and cannot be tolerated.
The serious consequences she fears most are actually related to personal emotions.
Ning Weimin is the bet she can't afford to lose.
For a long time, when facing Ning Weimin, she always preferred to report good news but not bad news, and she never talked much about her work or the entertainment industry.
He is afraid that his celebrity status will bring unnecessary pressure to Ning Weimin and have a negative impact on his life and work.
I am also afraid that Ning Weimin will learn about the chaotic and unbearable side of the entertainment industry and become alienated from him. She was afraid that all this would make their relationship, which was not well matched in age and status, increase instability and end their relationship prematurely.
Yes, she knew very well that a young man like Ning Weimin, who was handsome, intelligent, capable, kind and pure, had a gentle temperament and had a bright future, was not meant to be A woman like her whose youth is about to run out can possess it.
The relationship they have now is probably only temporary, stemming from her temporary beauty and star aura.
In other words, young Ning Weimin probably just had a temporary crush on her.
Sooner or later this young man will leave to marry a wife and have children, and live the kind of life that most people want.
And he will only become a vague episode in his memory.
But it doesn't matter, because no matter how short the time with Ning Weimin is, it can bring her back to her past self.
Find the simple, natural and sensitive self.
Find the true love that you once thought was completely dead.
For so many years, she has been unconsciously numbed by the glitz and glamour, and imprisoned by the noisy and restless upper class society.
Her senses were dulled, her emotions were lost, and she was almost turning into a walking zombie that was about to be destroyed.
However, she met Ning Weimin again, a young man who looked so much like her lost first love. Bringing back all her lost feelings in one fell swoop.
She will never forget the moment when they met for the first time. The feeling of looking at each other in despair was filled with a feeling of slightly aching and slightly sweet happiness.
She couldn't resist this attraction, and she didn't want to.
She just wants to give it water and let it grow.
No matter how much you pay, even if you can only have this feeling for one day, it is worth it.
So she did not hesitate to give everything, just to let their love exist for a while longer.
She doesn't have much leverage, she just provides some help to Ning Weimin's career and gives him as much physical enjoyment as possible.
But in fact, it backfired. Now, just because she intervened in Ning Weimin's restaurant, it caused an uproar and provided a new target for those who slandered her. It may affect Ning Weimin's beloved career.
Although they were all fabricated rumors, she really wasn't sure how much harm it would cause to the newly opened Ginza Danmiya.
I am even less sure what the final result will be if I wait any longer.
She did not dare to hope that Ning Weimin, who had suffered an unreasonable disaster, would treat it all objectively and calmly.
He is only in his twenties.
Although he is smart and mature, he is still a young man who has just entered society and has experienced too few trials and hardships.
How could he face all this calmly? Can you bear the corresponding pressure? Not angry at all? Why not blame her?
How could he not mind these bullshit public attacks and still treat her as tenderly as before?
Matsumoto Keiko no longer has any hope for this.
If you think about it in another person’s shoes, she wouldn’t be able to do this.
So she was just waiting, waiting for Ning Weimin to come to her and take the initiative to vent his anger and dissatisfaction to her.
She almost had trouble sleeping, eating and sleeping, waiting for Ning Weimin to show up, thinking about how to make amends and what to do to keep her love.
It is a coincidence that the two pots of geraniums that were originally placed randomly on the balcony and bloomed all year round have recently had problems.
I don’t know why there were insects. The leaves were chewed into nets, the petals were wilted and turned yellow, and even the branches of the flower stems were trampled softly.
Looking at the two pots of wilted diseased flowers, Matsumoto Keiko couldn't help but think wildly and was flustered by the bad premonition.
The result is that the more you fear, the more you get.
Even though Matsumoto Keiko was already so anxious, bad things kept coming one after another.
At around ten o'clock in the evening on April 25, her contract agent Akira Okamoto actually called her and brought her another piece of bad news.
It turns out that the NHK TV station that had already negotiated a salary with Matsumoto Keiko and invited her to star in the big river drama "Spring Waves" rejected the appointment.
Just now, the producers of NHK TV's Dahe drama met with Matsumoto Keiko's agent Akira Okamoto and asked them to unconditionally withdraw the signed contract.
The other party claimed that in view of the recent public controversy and out of consideration for the ratings of the new drama, NHK's management committee decided to select someone else as the heroine.
This is a hard order, and the producer has no way to resist it, so he can only obey it. He also hopes that Matsumoto Keiko will forgive him and not embarrass him.
So Okamoto Akira could only discuss with Matsumoto Keiko whether to let it go.
Although the other party's request was very arrogant and rude, he did not even want to bear the legal liability and financial compensation for breaking the contract.
But the problem is that considering the attributes of NHK TV station similar to Japan’s national TV station, and the type of Taiga drama that it is good at.
Akira Okamoto still suggested that Keiko Matsumoto should endure her anger for a while and not force herself to compete.
After all, in the long run, if you still want to participate in the Red and White Song Festival, which is equivalent to the "Japanese Spring Festival Gala", and star in the high-style Dahe drama, you will have to go through the hurdle of NHK TV station...
< br>To be honest, after Keiko Matsumoto learned the bad news, she had no idea what Akira Okamoto was talking about.
Although she was still holding the microphone, sweat was dripping from the palm of her hand holding the microphone tightly, and sweat was also dripping from her forehead.
She was in a daze, completely at a loss.
If not for anything else, just because this river drama is so important to her.
This is a 50-episode TV series with a female protagonist based on the original novels "The Corridors of Hades" and "Mrs. Sadato" by Sugimoto Enko, written by Johiro Nakajima.
The investment is huge, and NHK TV station is trying to show the life of all living beings in the Meiji and Taisho periods through this TV series.
The heroine Kawakami Sadao in the play is not only a beauty who can turn all living beings upside down, but also a famous legendary geisha in Japan from the Meiji to Showa years, and the first actress in Japan.
She was sold to a geisha house as a child, became famous at the age of fourteen, and later became the concubine of Prime Minister Ito Hirobumi.
Unwilling to accept her fate, she took it upon herself to marry the second-rate actor Otojiro Kawakami, and Ito had to let go.
Later Kawakami Sadao helped her husband become famous in the Western world.
After her husband died, she fell in love with the electricity magnate Momosuke Fukuzawa and helped him build the Kiso River Dam, but she refused to be his concubine.
In short, no matter in terms of appearance and personality, or in terms of experience in the acting career.
This Kawakami Sadao has many similarities with Matsumoto Keiko.
There is no need to even act, just Keiko Matsumoto acting in her usual style.
Even the screenwriter of this TV series believes that she is naturally convincing in this role and can easily win the "Academy Award".
Without a doubt, there is no more ideal opportunity than this.
Originally, Keiko Matsumoto was likely to become famous again because of this drama.
But now, this opportunity is gone...
This means that Keiko Matsumoto's career may have come to an end.
She will have no ability or possibility to help Ning Weimin in his career in the future.
Maybe it can save him from the current unfavorable situation for Ginza Danmiya.
Just thinking about it, Keiko Matsumoto cried unconsciously.
Then hot tears fell down. The teardrops were very heavy and hit the message paper in front of the phone with a "pop" sound, as if the paper was penetrated...
