These days, in addition to those Guo family members who failed to get what they wanted, there are also some people who are also feeling very painful.
Take Yasuko Sawaguchi for example.
It was impossible for her not to regret.
At first, she thought Ikuo Sufang was the one who defined Japan's entertainment industry, and she saw that he valued her so much.
She once happily believed that she had met the greatest opportunity in her life.
If I want to embrace this golden thigh, I can not only get rid of the shackles of the contract, avoid the years of exploitation of myself by Toho Entertainment, but also enjoy the treatment that a first-line star deserves in advance.
You can even rely on your burning connections to quickly become a TV star, completing a gorgeous transition from a movie platform to a TV platform, further increasing your already popular popularity.
There is no doubt that compared with the hard work of trying to figure out the role every day and making a movie.
For Yasuko Sawaguchi, it is obviously more tempting to appear on a variety show on TV, or sing a popular song, and earn a lot of money from copyright fees.
That's why she surrendered to the burning system without any hesitation.
He did not hesitate to offend the two proprietors of Toho Entertainment and Wu Studio, he did not hesitate to ruin his credit and reputation, he did not hesitate to dedicate his youth and body to rebel.
She dedicated everything to Ikuo Sufang, thinking that this was an opportunity that would allow her to easily climb to the top of the entertainment industry and enjoy success once and for all.
Originally, everything was going smoothly, and Ikuo Sufang did not break his promise.
She had just signed a contract with the Burning Department, and Ikkio Shuu negotiated a beverage advertising endorsement for her, and contacted two popular TV variety shows for her.
They even booked her as the heroine of a medical-themed TV series with TV Asahi, and she also made singing appointments with several famous music songwriters. Everything seemed to be getting better.
She has a bright future, and she can just sit back and enjoy the success, with peace of mind just waiting to fly up a branch and become a phoenix.
Even the comments that she had to be wary of in the past no longer need to worry about, because the most powerful place for the combustion type is to influence the media.
There will be more and more people who say good things about her, and those who say bad things about her will not be able to get retribution at all.
In Yasuko Sawaguchi's imagination, she is the future Keiko Matsumoto.
It won't take a few years for her to be on an equal footing with Keiko Matsumoto.
Maybe ten years later, she can buy a studio and play around.
But just overnight, Shu Fang Yuxiong's empire began to collapse, and all her unrealized dreams turned into gorgeous bubbles and dissipated.
Now that Sawaguchi Yasuko thinks about everything that happened during this time, it feels unreal.
First, Fog Studios announced the list of newly hired actors for "Black Leather Notepad". Keiko Matsumoto spared no expense in hiring new actors who were all big names in the film industry. As a result, the reputation of the crew was suddenly reversed and the reputation of the crew was shattered. There were rumors that the crew was short of funds.
Even because these industry seniors endorsed the crew, "Black Leather Notepad" not only attracted the attention of almost the entire Japanese audience, but also highlighted how ridiculous and despicable the actors who resigned were.
In particular, the legal staff of Wuwu Studios began to pursue the responsibility.
At the beginning of the clamor, those people who desperately defended the interests of the burning system were all silent. No one would be stupid enough to make a noise with Fog Studios at this time.
In turn, artists in the Japanese entertainment industry began to yearn for the opportunity to join the crew. Even for a small role, several major agencies were vying for it.
Because everyone knows that as long as you participate in this drama and can play with so many well-known actors, you will definitely increase the popularity and exposure of the participating artists like taking an elevator.
Speaking of this, Yasuko Sawaguchi really felt uncomfortable.
She would inevitably think about how much her fame would have improved if she had not made such a choice and stayed on the crew.
Can she be regarded as the "first sister" of "Dongbao Entertainment", and is she qualified to bargain with Dongbao, modify the "unfair" contract, and enjoy the treatment she deserves in advance?
That's not all. Then, the videotape of Ikuo Subo's threatening words appeared, which became the key evidence to kill him. It directly confirmed the fact that Ikuo Subo used artists to engage in bullying in the entertainment industry.
Under the heated public opinion, he turned into a street rat who dared not even show his face.
This is the most serious blow to the burning system.
Think about it, even the leader fell down and was beaten by reporters. How could they possibly have a future?
During this period, even the reputations of the artists under the Burning Department were questioned by the Japanese people, and the loss of fans was also serious.
If nothing else, Ikkio Suho is such a figure who will do whatever it takes to dominate the entertainment industry.
People will naturally wonder what method he uses to make his artists famous. Are these artists unaware of what their boss is doing?
Those media outlets don't know whether they are venting old grudges or adding insult to injury. They are also working hard to dig up scandals about combustion artists in order to satisfy the public's appetite.
At this moment, it can be said that everyone under the Burning Department feels that their future is in jeopardy.
Especially for Sawaguchi Yasuko, an actress who has just switched jobs, the benefits are not many, but the troubles are not less.
It made her feel as sick as if she had eaten a rat.
But the question is what should she do now? The career plan that Ikuo Suho had planned for her is now a piece of paper, and she can no longer proceed as scheduled.
Even half way through filming for an advertising endorsement, the other party regretted and stopped filming.
Then why talk about increasing fame?
What future is there?
She couldn't even earn the basic expenses of life.
Especially when she saw that even the Burning Department itself was in chaos, with countless artists and staff asking for resignations, she became even more flustered.
Ikuo Suho hadn't had time to arrange an agent for her, he had been arranging her affairs in person, and now she couldn't even find someone she trusted to discuss it with.
She really regretted it. At this time, she remembered what her previous agent had said to her.
"Newcomers have to go through a difficult time when they start out. Although they make less money, this time is also the time to lay a solid foundation for their career."
"You need to be more prudent and pragmatic. First adapt to the intensity of the announcement and the work of the crew, and coordinate all aspects of your experience. Don't be in a hurry to make money. Just do your best. Regardless of whether the final result is good or bad, Toho Entertainment will not ignore you in the future. ”
"Don't worry. For artists who work hard, we at Dongbao will definitely tailor-make movies and TV series for them. You just need to lay a solid foundation and develop steadily. In a few years, if you want to be an endorsement, you can be an endorsement, and if you want to be in an advertisement, you can Advertising, completely arbitrary..."
These remarks that she made like farts at the time, now that I think about it, are truly words of experience that are serious and responsible and considerate of her future.
The dilemma she had to face now really made her realize the agent's good intentions.
Originally, she only wanted to earn more, and she always felt that all her money was taken away by the firm, which was not worthwhile.
But now that there was no Toho Art to share the money with, she suddenly realized the seriousness of losing the protection of the firm.
It's a pity that I left my previous agency, and I left in a bitter way. Now I can't even ask my agent for advice.
Why were my original thoughts so simple? Oops, it was such a loss...
Yasuko Sawaguchi didn't speak for a long time. The more he thought about it, the more he regretted it. He wished he could turn back time and make a second choice in life.
It's all my fault for that guy Shu Fang Ikuo. If he hadn't deceived me with his nice words, I wouldn't have fallen to this point...
We can't just let him go. He promised that he must be responsible for his current situation. Even if BURNING Entertainment Agency collapses, this bastard will have to pay himself a lot of money.
Otherwise, how will she live her life in the future, how will she become famous, how will she enjoy glory and wealth, and how will she have a splendid life?
Huh, if he doesn't have a good life, he won't be able to live alone.
Yasuko Sawaguchi's face was extremely pale and she made up her mind. She looked up the phone number that Ikuo Shufang left for her, reached for the phone on the table, and planned to meet the person who had tricked her again.
Fog Studio seems to have set an excellent example for her. Now it's time to get some inside evidence of Ikuo Suho in order to be safe.
She still remembers Ikuo Shufu showing off to her that the reason why Fog Studios was embarrassed was because it was entrusted by a wealthy family.
The gold content of this news is not small. It would be great if Ikkio Sufang could say it again.
Could it be that others can take secret photos, but she can’t?
At least, she can record it.
Yes, she couldn't care about anything else. It was about her lifelong future and it was very important. She couldn't allow her efforts to get nothing.
What else was she afraid of? Zhou Fangyuxiong was like a wanted criminal with no other way out, and he had already lost his power.
If it wasn't illegal to kill someone, she would have wanted to stab this bitch right now!
…………
Sawaguchi Yasuko was not mistaken. It was indeed the case. Shufang Ikuo had indeed become an outcast of fate, and no longer had the prestige of the past.
Apart from bragging, it can be said that there is no real danger at all.
This guy can be said to have completely died.
Now not only do I dare not appear in public or meet reporters, I even dare not return home. Now I spend all day huddled in a hotel near Nihonbashi, relying on the hotel's facilities to solve my food and lodging problems.
You want to ask him how he ended up like this?
In addition to being beaten by reporters when he was surrounded by reporters, it was also because after he took action against Tan Gong Restaurant, he found Yakuza to cause trouble in Ning Weimin's restaurant. However, the result was not as he expected.
Not only did he fail to let his opponent know how powerful he was and negotiate a truce with him, he actually caused more trouble for himself.
For example, after the Danmiya Restaurant branch in Osaka was smashed, the Yamaguchi-gumi Wakatashi Mikatsu whom he had entrusted to called him and told him that because Dannomiya Restaurant had a huge amount of insurance with Nichido Insurance Company, he was under pressure from the insurance company. , the Japanese police are making every effort to investigate the case.
His subordinates are now not only under investigation by the police, but also under pressure from within the Yamaguchi group. Therefore, in order to resolve the matter, he needs to arrange for someone to confess and give an explanation to the police.
Of course, this expense has to be paid by Zhou Fangyuxiong.
He didn't ask for much, 30 million yen was enough.
Thirty million yen, plus the 20 million yen that was requested in the first place, Ikuo Shubo comes to 50 million yen!
It was one and a half times more than the originally agreed fee, and it made him feel bad that the money was spent.
And God knows if this is the end of the matter?
Will the other party keep asking him for money because things are not going well?
Not to mention, the situation in Tokyo is even worse. Inagawa Club's Toyohisa Eto failed to get things done, but instead blamed him for not investigating the other party's details clearly.
He also told him that Tan Gong Restaurant was a place protected by the second-in-command of the Daochuan Society, and that Director Zhao of the Daochuan Society personally protected the restaurant. These words scared him out of his wits.
How could he have thought that a pretty boy from China actually knew a local gangster in Tokyo? This relationship was stronger than anyone he could find.
So in order to take good care of himself and be careful about his own health and safety, he was willing to put himself under house arrest. After all, his life was important.
He didn't want to be accidentally stabbed in the back while walking on the street, nor did he want to experience the shock of a hired gunman coming to the office and shooting at him a few years ago.
However, these are nothing. The most irritating thing is that everything he has done is obviously for the Guo family, and he has not received any money. So far, there has been no benefit at all.
But how did the Guo family, who wrote him a bad check, treat him?
He actually came to hold him accountable for causing trouble in the hotel under his name. That bullshit deputy general manager of Guo (Xin) Company actually scolded him on the phone. Not only did he blame him for not handling the matter well, he also blamed him for being responsible. Guo asked him to be prepared to apologize to Tan Gong Restaurant?
Why! You still treat me like a human being!
Damn the Guo family, sooner or later you will suffer retribution!
It has to be said that Shufang Ikuo really regrets it now, and this feeling is even stronger than that of Sawaguchi Yasuko.
Originally, he only thought that Matsumoto Keiko was just a female star with a small amount of money, and her young husband was just a pretty boy from the third world.
He said he was running a restaurant, but he was just a freeloader.
With his own power in the entertainment industry and his influence on the black and white circles, he can naturally challenge them in any way he wants.
But he never expected that the other party's strength was really daunting.
It was as if an invincible monster was standing not far away, silently watching him fall into a trap. It was so terrifying that it was frightening.
And things have developed like this. He has been abandoned by the people who have always followed him loyally, and they even plan to use him as a gift to humiliate those he offended.
This was even more unacceptable to him.
If he had known earlier, why would he have to sacrifice his life for the Guo family! Why go to such trouble?
Even if you had some respect for Fog Studios, would things not have turned out like this?
Even if I have to admit defeat, I will find a decent way to avoid losing so completely and embarrassingly, right?
Or maybe it's because Wu Studio's strength is hidden too deeply, and they want to reveal their financial resources and connections early on.
How could I leave things without any room for change?
Wouldn't he have been plotted by Matsumoto Keiko from the beginning?
Could it be that this stinky woman has been thinking about her entertainment agency?
If that's the case, then I would be too pathetic, and the other party would be too terrible...
Zhou Fangyuxiong has been thinking about these things recently, and he already has some signs of persecution paranoia.
He lowered his head and thought for a while, feeling ashamed and angry but also a little regretful, but he had to say that he was not at the end of his rope yet.
Finally, there is a little hope of happiness, and that is the Japanese stock market.
When he thought of this, he couldn't help but smile and have a drink happily.
Speaking of which, the reason why he chose the Nihonbashi hotel to stay was because it is a prosperous place for business and finance in Japan.
The securities company where he opened a stock account, Sanyo Securities Central District Sales Department, is located on the ground floor of the building next door to this hotel.
So it couldn't be more convenient for him to live here and trade stocks. He disguises himself every day and only needs a five-minute walk to enter the VIP room there and enjoy a separate space to operate his own stocks.
And he has recently invested all the funds he can mobilize in the stock market, including company funds, real estate mortgages, business loans, etc., totaling 6.32 billion yuan.
In addition, he also received twice the capital allocation through Sanyo Securities.
Especially fortunately, because God has been kind, the market has been good recently, and the stock he selected is a dark horse stock for which the securities company provided insider information.
It had only been seven or eight trading days since he made the big bet, but he had already made more than 2 billion yen through the Japanese stock market.
More than two billion!
This is equivalent to the net profit of all the offices under the Combustion Department and more than half a year, and he earned it in just a few days!
On average, he can earn 300 million yen a day!
This taste is so good!
The money he earns every day can never be spent no matter how much he spends it.
And at least there are people from the securities company who serve him like a god, which is also a kind of psychological comfort.
Now he feels that he is so stupid. He didn't make such easy money in the past, so he foolishly ran an entertainment agency...
No, maybe he was too timid. His fault was that he didn't make a big bet to fight in the stock market early, which is why he didn't develop well for a long time.
By the way, the stock market is not a casino, but it is better than a casino, because with huge funds and the convenience and inside information provided by securities companies, you will not lose at all.
This is the game that real men should play. Rich people can make a fortune quickly through this kind of speculation.
Isn't it because Matsumoto Keiko dared to do it earlier and left the stock market with profits in time that she has become so famous now?
He understands now.
To be honest, it was God's good grace that brought him to Japan.
Taking advantage of the current good market conditions, just like the Japanese economy with a green light and invincibility, he will make money as long as he invests in the stock market, and his assets will rise at rocket speed.
If he continues like this, he will be able to earn tens of billions of yen in just a few months.
At that time, what will happen even if there is no entertainment agency?
So what if I get sued by Fog Studios?
So what if the Guo family forces him?
This world is still full of money. As long as he has huge wealth in his hands, he can make a comeback at any time, and others will still be helpless.
Even if he pays to buy the stocks, it is not impossible to become the majority shareholder of the Guo family business.
At worst, we will hold shareholder meetings every day to make trouble with the Guo family. How dare the Guo family look down on him?
It was at this time that the sudden ringing of the phone interrupted Ikuo Suho's thoughts.
He picked up the phone carefully, and when he heard the voice of Yasuko Sawaguchi, he immediately relaxed and felt quite happy.
For no other reason, he occasionally had physical needs, and Yasuko Sawaguchi was the best candidate. This was why he left his contact information for Yasuko Sawaguchi.
As for Yasuko Sawaguchi's anxious pursuit of debt collection, he certainly had his own way of soothing her emotions.
"Don't worry, I won't be defeated that easily. The current situation is nothing, just a little loss. When I finish the most important thing, I can easily regain control of the situation..."
"What am I busy with? Of course I made money in the stock market. I'm not bragging. I have a special connection in the securities company. I have made much more money recently than you can imagine. What is Fog Studios? , I want to film "Black Leather Notepad" at any time, so don't worry, if you are interested, I can also take you with me..."
"Well, how about you come to me now? Let's have a meal together and have a good chat. Don't be upset. You know it's not convenient for me to appear in public right now. In this way, you can buy yourself some gifts on the way. Let me compensate you. You can choose whatever you want within one million yen. You are welcome to buy what you like. You pay the bill first and I will give you the money when we meet..." (End of Chapter)
