Chapter 629: Can't wait

"Teacher He Xi, long time no see."

That night, the banquet was held on time. Meng Huo was talking to several leaders of Tokyo TV, and several people came to him.

"Long time no see, Miss Masako."

Meng Huo turned to see when he heard the voice and found that he knew him, Masako Nakagawa, who was the female artist who borrowed the stage when he first came to Jidong. He also asked her to participate in the dubbing of animation two years ago, but in the past two years, the two have never had any contact.

After two years of not seeing her, Masako Nakagawa has changed a lot. She was originally more like a girl in Meng Huo's impression, but now she has a sense of maturity and melancholy on her face, exuding the breath of an adult woman. Last time she saw her, Miss Masako still looked confident. Now, from her face, Meng Huo can tell that her career has not been developing smoothly.

This can also be verified from her agent.

"Miss Suzuki, long time no see." Meng Huo nodded to the agent, and the female agent forced a smile: "Long time no see, Teacher He Xi."

There was also a sense of worry on her face, but Meng Huo's relationship with them could only be said to be acquaintance, and there weren't many contacts, so he didn't want to dig into the reasons why their faces looked strange. Moreover, compared to these two people, Meng Huo was more interested in the people in front of him: Alice and a man in his forties and fifties walked over and talked and laughed.

"You are... Mr. Fukuyama?"

When they walked in front of them, Meng Huo searched his memory and first said the man's name.

This man is like Masako Natsukawa and the others. Both Meng Huo met several years ago. He seemed to be Alice's friend. He was helped by Masako's stage performance back then - but Meng Huo had even less contact with him. He only met one time a few years ago.

"I didn't expect that Teacher He Xi could remember me just one encounter four years ago!" Fukuyama shook hands with Meng Huo, his expression was both surprised and frightened. After so long, He Xi actually remembered his name. This fact surprised and proud of him!

Meng Huo is a star in the hotel. In this hotel where TV leaders, media representatives, cartoonists, artists and experts gathered. Everyone is paying attention to his every move, openly or secretly. His words just now. The fate that Fukuyama said just now instantly attracted people's attention to him.

"Mr. He Xi remembered the relationship he met four years ago? Who is this man?"

"He is so lucky, did he see it? Miss Alice, who was in charge of Phoenix Company's voice actors' firm, looks like his identity is extraordinary..."

It seemed as if I could hear the discussion of the audience around me. Fukuyama couldn't help but straighten his chest and make himself look taller.

"What, just an ordinary agent..."

Some people from entertainment companies in the hotel couldn't help but mutter so much, of course they knew what was going on. Four years ago, Alice, who left the entertainment industry, suddenly wanted to ask friends in Tokyo to help provide a stage for He Xi, but everyone thought that she had left the entertainment industry, so few people paid attention to it, and Fukuyama seized that opportunity.

He helped provide He Xi with a very small stage, but he didn't expect that He Xi would remember this busyness all the time. He even remembered his name four years later.

"Damn it, I would have helped me if I had known it!" At this moment, I actually didn't know how many people were crying in their hearts. It was a great thing to be remembered by He Xi in Tokyo.

Today is different from the past. He Xi is no longer a small person that few people knew four years ago. Now everyone knows his excellence, especially the voice actors, animations, and even movies of the entertainment industry, which are gradually eroding the market in the entertainment industry. There have been many discussions about the "He Xi threat theory".

Some people say that the emergence of voice actors and animation is a change, even if it does not ruin the entertainment industry, it will also subvert the future entertainment landscape of China. And the most terrifying thing is that the most bare-handed star in China is not very pity for its influence. Although this cartoonist is not a star, he has an influence that stars cannot match.

His fans and readers are no less than first-class stars, but his cohesion and loyalty are far more than any star. Many people even believe that if He Xi enters the entertainment industry and receives professional training and operation, no one in China Entertainment will be able to compete with him - he is a natural idol.

Many guests envied Fushan's luck for this. He Xi remembered him. If he could take this opportunity to invite He Xi to perform, he would make a lot of money. Even if he didn't do a performance, he would have many benefits to establish a good relationship with He Xi and Phoenix Company, not to mention that he could also please Su Hua TV.

Fukuyama's idea was exactly the same. He was not greedy, so after chatting with Meng Huo for a few words, he smiled and gave him to other guests. Meng Huo is the protagonist today. Fukuyama stood aside and watched the young man and other guests ask each other, and couldn't help but sigh: "A few years ago, I never thought he would become such a big shot."

At that time, he was just helping with Alice's friendship, and he didn't know anything about the cartoonist He Xi. To be honest, even if he knew, he wouldn't care too much - because the Phoenix Company and the company he worked in at that time were not very powerful companies, so what's so amazing about a cartoonist in such a company?

But now the situation has changed. Phoenix is ​​already a giant. It is Tokyo, a cherry blossom animation that produced "Detective Conan", whose economic benefits have exceeded that of Fukuyama's agency. Speaking of the entire Phoenix Company, it is a big company that he must look up to.

The world is developing too fast, making Fukuyama feel like he is in a dream.

"You are Mr. Fukuyama, are you?"

At this time, a man came over and reached out to hand Fukuyama a business card, but he didn't have to look at Fukuyama to know his identity: he is the director of the Tokyo TV "Today's Star" column. This column has a very high rating in the Far East District and will only invite the most famous stars to appear.

"Mr. Fukuyama is no longer Shimada's agent now, right?"

The man asked, Fukuyama suddenly became excited. He seemed to have expected something and nodded quickly and said, "Yes, I am Mr. Muto's agent now."

The artist Fukuyama was originally in charge of Shimada, which was the most powerful male star in their company. However, because of some conflicts between the two, Fukuyama has never served as Shimada's agent since last year, but has cultivated a star of the company of a medium-level.

The surname of this star is Muto. He has a good personality and temper, but his reputation is not good, and he has never appeared on a good show on Tokyo TV.

"Mr. Muto? Well... he is a little mediocre..." The man frowned slightly. When Fukuyama felt a little nervous, he laughed: "But I am quite interested in him. Mr. Fukuyama has time to bring him to our TV station to sit. I want to ask if he is interested in participating in our program recording."

"Yes, of course!" Fukuyama shouted in his heart, but he still hid the joy on his face and nodded steadily: "Of course, I will take him to visit!"

He knew in his heart that the man would look for him not because of Muto, but because of his conversation with He Xi just now, the big guys of this TV station misunderstood their relationship and deliberately win him over. The effect of the cooperation between Tokyo TV and Phoenix Company has already appeared, and the TV station will gradually increase its relationship with Phoenix Company in all aspects.

The man sent an invitation to Fukuyama. He was completely for He Xi's sake. He said a few words to Fukuyama, and then left with a smile.

“…I’m here right today!”

Fukuyama was happy. He looked up and saw that there was someone from Masako Natsukawa and his agent. It seemed that they were welcomed.

The circle atmosphere of this celebration banquet is very obvious. Celebration of "Detective Conan" is just the surface, but in fact it is to cultivate a small circle. Whether it is Tokyo TV or Sakura Company, they will help shape the circle. Only with the circle can there be influence. Everyone present hopes to use this opportunity to expand the social circle.

"But there is really no gloomy atmosphere..."

After carefully observing the banquet, Fukuyama was a little surprised. The news that "Detective Conan" was completed in media newspapers today was not very good. He thought that he would feel a more boring atmosphere when he arrived at the scene, but when he saw it in the hotel, everyone generally didn't care about this matter.

The atmosphere in the hotel is very lively. The guests gathered together to introduce each other, talk and laugh, and took the opportunity to expand their network of contacts. Some animation companies were also invited. Representatives of these animation companies were surrounded by several famous cartoonists and Takashima Takako and others, as if they were talking about animation cooperation.

Phoenix's attitude changed a few months ago. They opened the copyright of comics to the public, lowered the price to promote voice actors, and only produced He Xi's works. In this way, a large number of animation companies stood with them.

However, most of the guests here are from Tokyo TV and Sakura Company, and they may not want to be depressed. Especially Tokyo TV. No matter what the newspaper says, the completion of "Detective Conan" is a good thing for them, at least it can ensure that "Mobile Suit Gundam 00" will be broadcast smoothly.

Tokyo TV is looking forward to how much "Mobile Suit Gundam 00" is enough to see through it at a glance. The animation production has just started, but it started advertising a few days ago, and even replaced prime time advertisements with the promotional show of "Mobile Suit Gundam 00", which is said to continue until the premiere of this animation.

The previous life-oriented animation "The Girl of Light" was a great success, making Tokyo TV even more eager for New Gundam. (To be continued)
