It seems that every country on this planet has a pair of cities with a very special relationship. For example, New York and Los Angeles in the United States, London and London in the United Kingdom, and Tokyo and Osaka in Japan. In Osaka, the fastest way to integrate into Osaka people is

Make fun of Tokyoites. As if the best way to make friends in New York is to criticize the Boston Red Sox. As long as you hate the Boston Red Sox, you are a good friend of us New Yorkers.

But for Lin Junxiu, he likes Osaka more than Tokyo. It is true that Tokyo is far more prosperous than Osaka, but Tokyo is really just a reinforced concrete forest, without the "local flavor" of Osaka at all. Although Osaka's

The nightlife is far less rich than in Tokyo. Once it passes 10 o'clock, many places in Osaka go to sleep, but you can still see students who have just finished cram school riding their bicycles quickly home, or the owner of an izakaya is enthusiastically talking

Say goodbye to today's guests. If he could choose, Lin Junxiu would still like to live in Osaka.

"This time NMB48's Dream Theater is scheduled to be held in the Sennichimae area of ​​Namba." said Yoshimoto Kogyo, an executive responsible for hosting Lin Shunxiu and Akimoto Yasu. "The decoration of the theater has been completed, and we will go to the site after lunch."

Namba is the most important business district in Osaka, and its status is equivalent to Ginza District in Tokyo. Of course, like Ginza District, this is not an administrative district officially divided by the government. Ginza District belongs to the Chuo Ward of Tokyo, while Namba District

It spans the Naniwa District and Chuo District of Osaka City. Many Chinese people must visit Shinsaibashi and Dotonbori in the Namba area when they come to Osaka, and Sennichimae is just across Dotonbori from Shinsaibashi.

Geographically speaking, Sennichimae is indeed a place with a lot of personal traffic. When Lin Junxiu and Akimoto Yasushi arrived at the scene, Lin Junxiu was a little dissatisfied. The price of land in Japan has caused the Japanese to have extreme reasons for land. Some brokers

The company even spares no attention to the underground floor. In fact, when Lin Junxiu was still a little Johnny, he once trained in the basement training ground of Johnny's Office. Because Lin Junxiu stayed there, he knows the underground venue very well.

There are many shortcomings. Not to mention other aspects, lighting and ventilation alone are big problems.

"We have arranged the NMB48 Dream Theater on the basement floor of the YES Namba Building, and opposite is our luxurious Namba Kagetsu Theater of Yoshimoto Kogyo." Perhaps because he didn't see Lin Junxiu's black face, the person in charge of Yoshimoto was still very nervous.

He introduced enthusiastically. "Judging from the traffic of our luxurious Flower Moon Theater, NMB48 will definitely succeed here!"

After listening to Yoshimoto Kogyop's introduction, Lin Junsu really didn't know what Yoshimoto Kogyop thought of NMB48. Since you want to run a sister group of 48 Group, you should at least show some sincerity. But Lin Junsu

We know very well the origin of this NMB48 Dream Theater. It was originally a stage used by Yoshimoto Kogyo to perform for new artists. It was originally called "Yoshimoto Base". Don't think that Yoshimoto Kogyo uses such a poor venue because it doesn't have money. In fact, wait for this venue

After giving it to NMB48, the original Yoshimoto base was renamed "5Up Yoshimoto" and moved to the fifth floor of this building.

Although the flow of people on the fifth floor may not be as good as that on the first floor, the environment of the venue is far better than that on the first floor. And from Lin Junxiu's preference, he would rather choose the fifth floor, which means theaters, shops, and cafes

The facilities are all well arranged. And more importantly, the future popularity of NMB48 is Lin Junxiu’s greatest confidence. Have you ever seen how much popularity AKB48 and SKE48 have brought to the mall where they are located?

"Are there no other floors in this building that can be used?" Lin Junxiu asked calmly, "I can barely accept the theater being placed here, but where will the surrounding shops and cafes that match the theater be placed in the future? Put them on other floors.

If so, how can it be related to the popularity of the theater? Not to mention making do, isn't it strange that the cafe is placed on the first floor of the basement? Who would come to drink coffee in such a depressing environment? Although fans' money is easy to make, but it is also

Don’t fail to respect your fans as customers.”

Lin Junsu's sudden attack caught the people of Yoshimoto Kogyo off guard, because according to the original plan, Lin Junsu just came for a formality and left after attending the press conference. After all, NMB48 is an idol group that is managed by Yoshimoto Kogyo and Kyōraku Industry.

, Lin Junsu only has the right to make suggestions but not to dispose, so where NMB48 Dream Theater is placed is entirely his own business. Faced with Lin Junxiu’s criticism, the people from Yoshimoto Kogyo were not polite. After all, Yoshimoto Kogyo’s office in Osaka

The power is still very strong. Even the more powerful brokerage companies have to be polite to the people of Yoshimoto Kogyo when they arrive in Osaka.

"Mr. Lin, what do you mean? Do you think we are deducting money from NMB48?"

"Yes. I'm glad you can understand what I mean." Faced with Yoshimoto's dissatisfaction, Lin Junxiu also responded forcefully.

It is true that Yoshimoto Kogyo is unclean, but compared with Ran Production, Yoshimoto Kogyo can only be regarded as a peripheral vassal of a certain Yakuza organization. Lin Junxiu's current status is one that many Yakuza organizations are unwilling to take the initiative to provoke, so

Even if Lin Junxiu and Yoshimoto Kogyo break up, as long as everyone follows the rules, even the Yakuza organization behind Yoshimoto will not say anything. So Lin Junxiu directly took out the contract and said, "If I remember correctly, the contract

It is stipulated that if your company's hardware facilities such as theaters cannot meet the requirements of our Vernalossom Club, then we can refuse to authorize you to operate a sister group."

The inspection between the two parties naturally ended on bad terms, and Lin Junxiu naturally did not stay at the hotel arranged by Yoshimoto Kogyo, but transferred to a hotel in Kita District. In addition to the Namba area in Naniwa District, Osaka's business district is in Kita District.

The Umeda area is also an important business district. And unlike the Namba area, which retains a lot of Osaka's traditional style, Umeda is more modern. If you really can't find a suitable place in the Namba area, Lin Junxiu is not opposed to finding a suitable place in Umeda.

We are looking for a suitable venue in the region. The worst possible outcome is to change the name of NMB48 to UMD48 (Umeda’s Japanese Romanization is Umeda).

"Do you really despise that place, or are you just trying to avoid Yoshimoto's place?" Yasushi Akimoto asked in a club-style sushi restaurant with some confusion. "SKE48 didn't see you being so dissatisfied at the time.

, why did NMB48 hit you?"

"The fundamental reason why I don't like Kyoraku Industries and Yoshimoto Kogyo is that they use idols entirely for commercial purposes. Of course, I am not a saint, and I will compromise with social reality. But there is still a bottom line for my compromises.

, that is, I hope that my partner can at least show respect for our idol project in attitude." Lin Junxiu picked up a piece of tuna sushi, dipped it in some wasabi and Japanese soy sauce, and swallowed it in one bite.

"Kyōraku Industrial treats SKE48 with at least face-to-face respect, and I am satisfied with the location of the Sakaecho Sunshine Building. But as for Yoshimoto Kogyo...if Yoshimoto is so poor that this property is the only thing left, then I

It's acceptable. But how much did they spend on the luxurious Huayue Theater opposite? Well, you said that this theater is the foundation of their family, and we at NMB48 are just incidental, so they won't give us the space they don't use, right?

?Teacher Akimoto, you should know that our venue is the original 'Yoshimoto Base', right? Then do you know where this 'Yoshimoto Base' has gone? It was renamed '5Up Yoshimoto' and moved to 5 above us.

Went upstairs."

Hearing Lin Junxiu's complaint, Akimoto Yasushi's face didn't look good. After all, Akimoto Yasushi and Lin Junxiu are the same type of people. Their so-called "idol dream" is to create an idol group with their deep imprints.

To make money. Although the purpose of the two is indeed vulgar, it cannot be denied that the two still have some idealism. For example, when dealing with these girls, the two still try their best to protect them. At the same time, the two will try to minimize

The influence of the outside world on these girls.

To put it simply, Yasushi Akimoto is the same as Junxiu Lin. Although they also use these girls to make money, they do not regard these girls as tools without emotion. I heard that Yoshimoto Kogyo gave the venue that they did not use to themselves, and then they themselves

After moving to a better venue, Akimoto Yasu became angry. Although he didn't complain, the fact that he drank Daiginjo in one gulp seemed to indicate something.

"Are you saying that Lin Junxiu is very dissatisfied with the venue we chose and even threatened to interrupt our cooperation with us on NMB48?" Just when Lin Junxiu and Akimoto Yasu were sulking in the sushi restaurant, Yoshimoto Kogyo's high-level meeting

A meeting was also held in the room to discuss Lin Junxiu's attitude. "Have you reported this matter to the people at Kyungraku Industries?" In terms of cooperation with NMB48, although Kyungraku Industries also invested, most of them were people from Yoshimoto.

Lord, Jingle is more like a financial investor.

"Should we find someone to give them a warning?" Someone suddenly suggested at this time, and he even took out his mobile phone.

"What do you want to do?" The chairman who was sitting at the top of the conference room directly smashed the tea cup in his hand. "If something happens to Lin Junxiu and Akimoto Yasushi in Osaka, wouldn't this tell the whole of Japan that it is us Yoshimoto who are causing trouble for them?

One Akimoto Yasushi is enough to cause us trouble, but you want to hook up with Lin Junxiu? Do you know that Lin Junxiu's identity is such that even the Prime Minister should treat him with courtesy? Do you want to recruit people from the Special Investigation Department?"

The Special Investigation Department is a special department of Japanese law enforcement agencies. Outsiders are more familiar with the Tokyo Special Investigation Department, which is said to be a department that even the Prime Minister of Japan is afraid of. After all, the Tokyo Special Investigation Department was established by the U.S. military stationed in Japan during the occupation of Japan.

, it was directly under the High Command of the United Nations Garrison. It was completely used by the United States to control Japan's political and business circles. Although the Osaka Special Investigation Department and the Nagoya Special Investigation Department that were later established were not as famous as the Tokyo Special Investigation Department, their lethality was also

It is definitely not something that Yoshimoto Kogyo can compete with.

"Arrange for others to contact Qiu Yuanyasu to see what Lin Junxiu's true opinions are."

After dinner with Yasushi Akimoto, Lin Junxiu declined Qiu Yuanyasu's suggestion to have fun and returned to the hotel. After taking a shower in the hotel, Lin Junxiu turned on the hotel TV and then changed the channel to BS East TV.

BS East TV is a satellite channel under TV Tokyo. It was established based on Japan's "Measures to Countermeasures for Viewing Difficulties". In accordance with the requirements of the Japanese government, in order to ensure that all Japanese citizens can watch TV programs that meet standard quality, all public broadcasters in Japan

Television (NHK) and national terrestrial television stations (i.e., the five major civil broadcasters) must open corresponding satellite channels to ensure that mountainous areas and outlying island areas in Japan can receive television programs. However, due to the high cost of specially produced programs, in addition to NHK and TV Tokyo

In addition, the satellite channels of other TV stations actually broadcast the programs of terrestrial channels.

The ratings of Japan's cable and satellite stations are not high, and the satellite stations are even more bleak, so each TV station also uses its own satellite station as a test channel for new programs. For example, this time AKB48 cooperated with the Japan Football Association for a football project
