Chapter 1,117 Jealousy(1/2)
For the same thing, some people are happy and some are sad.
Just when Ning Weimin and the staff at Tan Palace were collectively excited about the news from Fuji TV, Matsumoto Keiko happened to call Ning Weimin to express her congratulations.
In a luxury suite at the Monterey Hotel in Ginza, Tokyo.
A man and a woman who were almost naked were shocked and outraged by Fuji TV's news about the opening of Ginza Danmiya Hotel.
"How can it be!"
Michiko Harada was about to get up when she screamed hysterically.
The sheet protecting her chest was almost torn by her hands.
"This woman opened a store in Ginza! Such a gorgeous store! There are so many celebrities gathered there!"
She always thought that Matsumoto Keiko had already rejected director Fukasaku and would naturally suffer revenge and blow from the director.
The future prospects are very grim.
In order to ensure the box office and award-winning chances of "The Man on Fire".
During the period between the film's release and the award-winning period, even President Omoto, who had single-handedly nurtured Keiko Matsumoto, could not risk offending the director by stepping in to protect her.
Not so herself.
Precisely because he climbed into the director's bed, he became Fukasaku's new favorite, and he did not spare his body when filming.
With her large-scale passionate drama, she is very likely to win the Grand Award in the film industry this year.
If in this movie, Keiko Matsumoto would be criticized by the media and abandoned by the audience.
However, like the rising sun, she completed a counterattack and became a new generation of first-line actress of Shochiku Pictures.
This is the most perfect result, you can feel as comfortable as you want!
But I didn't expect that Keiko Matsumoto was so shrewd and suddenly became the owner of such a high-end restaurant.
In this way, it will not only offset the negative news about her being "unprofessional" some time ago, but also give entertainment reporters a new hot spot to pursue.
It may even be possible that her original reputation as a movie queen and the media's encouragement will bring her a steady stream of lucrative and attractive business benefits.
A restaurant that can gain a foothold in Ginza, needless to say how profitable it will be in the future?
It's like having a chicken that can lay golden eggs.
From a long-term perspective, this is much more beneficial than getting another movie queen title.
Michiko Harada was so jealous that she couldn't help but suspect that there was something wrong with her ears.
He looked up at Director Fukasaku who had already gotten up first and was walking out of the bathroom, wanting to seek confirmation.
"Did I hear wrongly? She didn't say this was her restaurant on TV just now, did she?"
However, the other party seemed to be avoiding her sight.
The director just stared silently at the TV screen without saying a word, and his face was even more frighteningly dark.
If not for anything else, it was because Kinji Fukasaku also heard what Keiko Matsumoto said frankly about his investment in this restaurant, and he was very convinced of everything he heard.
It wasn't until a moment later that he responded in a low voice.
"You heard that right, it's her restaurant. What? You can't even understand Japanese?"
Although he tried his best to control his emotions and keep his tone calm, the last sentence still showed obvious sullenness.
This seemed to be blaming Michiko Harada for asking such a stupid question.
Michiko Harada was afraid of being criticized by Kado, so she bit her lower lip and endured it silently, saying nothing for a while.
However, at this time, Fukasaku Kinji seemed to have opened Pandora's box and poured out his negative emotions.
I couldn't help but shout excitedly!
"This woman is really good at playing tricks! She actually didn't let any news out. I see. No wonder she is so eager to get rid of me! She is planning to give up everything in the entertainment industry and completely retire!"
Yes, at this time, he was also experiencing strong uneasiness in his heart.
Of course, this uneasiness is not like that of Michiko Harada, which is just out of the jealousy of the actress.
I just can't see how good Matsumoto Keiko is and I wish I could replace her.
It's because he knows very well that ever since a supernatural incident occurred in a tissue advertisement and Keiko Matsumoto was terminated by all advertisers, she has been living beyond her means.
Considering that she earns 20 million yen per movie, 2.8 million yen for a single episode of a TV series, and can earn millions in performance fees from occasionally participating in variety shows, her annual income is only 70 million.
Around yen.
It is very difficult to maintain a decent personal life and business.
There is absolutely no extra financial capacity to open such a high-end restaurant in Ginza.
Not to mention the high-end decoration and furnishings of the restaurant, the labor cost alone is a huge expense.
Therefore, Matsumoto Keiko must have found a funder to fund her, so that she could afford to invest in such a restaurant.
This is no wonder why Matsumoto Keiko is so determined to alienate herself, even at the risk of ruining her own acting career.
Yes, that’s so!
The more outstanding a woman is, the more she will measure her own value.
If you like your own talents, like a man's strong personality and mature demeanor, and don't care about the age difference, those were all lies.
Of course she knows that her own conditions are very good, and she is no longer satisfied with being a lover who is only a director.
Now that she has found a truly rich man, she finally got her wish, which is why she despises herself so much and runs away so determinedly.
What a realistic woman!
After taking off the disguise, she is no different from other women...
In short, my mind was filled with such speculations, but Kinji Fukasaku's full confidence and glory as a famous director were all shattered.
He originally understood that Keiko Matsumoto was in trouble and had to rely on his own help to revive her career.
Only then would he use both soft and hard tactics, trying to use the power and authority of the director to completely subjugate her.
But now the situation has completely changed.
He thought that since Matsumoto Keiko had such a restaurant, it would be difficult for him to force this beautiful beauty to compromise.
This was the prey that he had always dreamed of, even if he took great pains to suppress and block her, he could only watch helplessly as she found another way and escaped easily through his fingers.
Has she become someone else's woman?
When he thought of this, it was no wonder that he was filled with frustration and shock, and was emotionally broken.
As for Michiko Harada, she was shocked by the director's sudden gaffe.
But she is indeed somewhat smart and immediately understood the subtext of these words.
"Huh? So, what you mean is...that woman became a financial sponsor? Did she use other people's money to open the store?"
Without waiting for the director's response, she deduced a more reasonable reason.
"That's right. That's the center of Japan, the most prosperous Ginza. To open such a store in such a place, it would cost at least five to six billion. She has no advertising income now, so she relies on acting remuneration
, how could she become a shareholder of such a restaurant? The man who was willing to pay to help her was really generous. I wonder where she seduced the wealthy man..."
But these words made Fukasaku Kinji more and more unhappy, and he blurted out harsh words.
"What? Are you still surprised? A woman like Qingzi is always surrounded by all kinds of men. All she has to do is wait for a big fish. In fact, you don't have to be so jealous. After you get the award, you
Now that she has become a movie queen, her today may also be your future. Now I have completely seen through you women. You are all born to be greedy and vain."
Michiko Harada was inevitably aggrieved after being scolded for no reason.
But after all, she is a good observer of words and emotions.
Seeing that Fukasaku Kinji had even the tie he had just tied around his neck pulled open by himself.
This guy's face was red and his neck was thick, he looked like a gambler who had lost miserably.
It didn't take long to figure out the real reason for his anger.
So I quickly put on a cute act of coquettishness and defended myself in a typical Tokyo accent.
"Director, how can you say that? I have no such plan. I am a typical Tokyoite. Although I like money, I also have principles. My best goal is to marry the director. It really doesn't work.
Wouldn’t it be good to marry a doctor, writer, painter, scholar, university professor, etc.? If I really want to marry a businessman, oh my, I can’t stand it. Director, please don’t curse me, how can I do that in life?
It’s not interesting. I will never marry someone from Osaka..."
You know, regional discrimination also exists in Japan, with Tokyo and Osaka being typical examples of hurting each other.
Because there are many businessmen in Osaka, the work is done in a straightforward manner, and you have to negotiate the price when buying things.
Although most of Japan's business elites are from Osaka, and many famous companies were born in Osaka, they are considered vulgar and philistine by Tokyoites who claim to be the sons of Edo.
Osaka people, on the other hand, think that Tokyo people, who always dress neatly and speak tactfully, are hypocritical, sarcastic, bitchy, and not pragmatic.
If compared with our country, the opposition between these two places is actually very similar to the capital of the Republic and Shanghai.
And the most coincidental thing is that there is Disney in Tokyo, and later there is Universal Studios in Osaka.
