Life in Tokyo starting as a child star

The University of Tokyo.

It is not only the top university in Japan, but also one of the top universities in the world. It is the dream of countless Japanese students to enter the university. It is no problem to say that it is the top of the Japanese education pyramid.

Therefore, most of the Japanese prime ministers, Nobel Prize winners, and bank presidents are from the University of Tokyo.

This also leads to an exaggerated saying in the Japanese market that the University of Tokyo holds the future of Japan.

Keigo Oizumi neither denies nor confirms this.

But the only thing that can be confirmed is that it is difficult to get into the University of Tokyo, very difficult!

Especially the School of Medicine of the University of Tokyo.

Because the entrance examination questions are too difficult.

It is known as "only aliens can get in!".

Every year, about 10,000 people apply for the University of Tokyo, and the admission rate of other departments is about 7% to 8%. But when it comes to the School of Medicine of the University of Tokyo, the admission rate is only 0.01%, which shows the value of it.

Just looking at this admission rate, you can know the difference from other universities in Japan-it is a real difference in standards.

Except for Kyoto University, which also belonged to the old empire period and could barely compete with Tokyo University, other universities in Japan are basically not comparable to Tokyo University.

Of course, Oizumi Keigo did not disbelieve that Kita Sumire could be admitted to Tokyo University.

On the contrary, at the age of 10, he entered Jingwen High School, one of the top three high schools in Tokyo, and he was also making great progress in his career as a shoujo.

All this is enough to show that Kita Sumire is different from ordinary people and is a real genius.

Such a "genius" shoujo, if he can calm down and study.

It is probably a sure thing to be admitted to Tokyo University.

But the problem is that Kita Sumire can't calm down at all.

This is not a problem of Kita Sumire's mentality.

It is a problem of Kita Sumire's career as the first shoujo.

Whether it is a TV series or a movie, these things require a lot of energy to prepare.

It usually takes half a month to a month to memorize the TV script or the movie script.

As for studying, if you play for two or three days without studying, you will feel a sense of ‘unlearning’ when you hold a pen.

You will feel uncomfortable writing.

It is almost impossible to enter the University of Tokyo under such a busy situation.

This is also the important reason why Keigo Oizumi deliberately excluded the University of Tokyo from the first tier.

Because not only does Kita Sumire have to maintain his reputation, but he also has to be admitted to the University of Tokyo, which is really too difficult.

But Kita Sumire has no intention of giving up at this moment, and is still asking.

"Oizumi-san, what do you think? If I can be admitted to the University of Tokyo, should I add advertising endorsement fees to the original 70 million yen?"

"Uh"

Facing Kita Sumire's bright eyes, it was Keigo Oizumi's turn to open his mouth and start to feel troubled - really troubled.

Because there is no such thing in the contract plan of their media department.

After all, ordinary people probably feel a sense of awe when they see top universities such as Kyoto University and Tohoku University.

Who would have thought that a 10-year-old child like Kitasumi would actually take the initiative to bring it up?

He is indeed an incredible child.

Keigo Oizumi sighed in his heart, without hiding anything, and said straight to the point: "We have not yet considered the situation where Kitasumi-kun was admitted to the University of Tokyo. We are very sorry."

"Hey? But according to what Oizumi-san said, the better the publicity effect is, the more willing your company is to offer me a high reward. Isn't that what Kyoto University and Waseda University mean?"

She spoke with a pure face, but Kitasumi's words were not pure at all in Keigo Oizumi's ears.

"If I am admitted to the University of Tokyo, the publicity of your company's new version of the textbook will definitely be unprecedentedly strong, right? In this case, shouldn't I be given more advertising endorsement fees?"

"."

Looking at Kitasumi, who was full of "innocence" in front of him, Keigo Oizumi realized that he really underestimated Kitasumi in front of him.

This child peeled off the innocent and handsome skin, and the inside was definitely black and festering!

He kept grasping his weakness and outputting.

It was difficult for him to find excuses to get away with it temporarily.

After all, it was just as Kitasumi said.

Just like when slimming drugs are looking for models, advertising vendors have rigid requirements for models, requiring them to lose a certain amount of weight in a certain number of days, in order to highlight the high-quality effects of their slimming drugs.

If Kitasumi could be admitted to the University of Tokyo, it would be reasonable to ask for corresponding advertising endorsement fees - because Kitasumi's worth at that time was more than that.

Perhaps seeing Keigo Oizumi's hesitation, Kitasumi immediately struck while the iron was hot. He couldn't let go of the opportunity to make a huge sum of money.

"According to my age of 10 this year, I will be at most 11 years old when I am admitted to the University of Tokyo next year."

His voice paused slightly.

"11 years old, this is also the youngest student in the history of the University of Tokyo, right? I think that whether it is this 'youngest student at the University of Tokyo' or the identity of a child, it should bring corresponding advertising revenue to the dankosha, right?"

"Kitasumi-kun is really confident."

Keigo Oizumi couldn't help but look at Kitasumi more.

He really didn't know where Kita Sumi's confidence that he could definitely get into the University of Tokyo came from.

But if Kita Sumi really did it

Oizumi Keigo pondered for a while, then stood up and said in a deep voice: "I'm sorry, Kitasumi-kun, Tamura-san, this is not something I can decide on my own."

After all, it involves a deal of tens of millions of yen in advertising endorsement fees.

Even as the deputy director of the media department, Oizumi Keigo couldn't agree to it.

But——

"Please wait a moment, I have just conveyed Kitasumi-kun's opinion to the director of our department, and he will discuss the matter with you next."

"Minister Miyagi is coming?"

As the middleman, Chiyoko Kojima was stunned.

I thought that the second-in-command of the media department came forward, which was quite a face-saving thing for Kitasumi.

But what she didn't expect was that after a few words from Kitasumi, the head of the media department actually came forward.

She couldn't help but look at Kitasumi.

She was really curious.

I don't know how Kitasumi Yubo, a woman with a weird personality, educated her nephew so perfectly.

The 'Minister Miyagi' mentioned by Chiyoko Kojima came over soon.

The other person has an ordinary appearance. Compared with Keigo Oizumi, his figure can only be considered medium. He looks like an ordinary middle-aged man.

"Excuse me, I am Miyagi Hidego, the director of the media department of Tankosha."

Still in a very Japanese style, he took out his business card when he saw someone, and introduced himself with a smile.

Although he looked ordinary, he was very decisive in doing things.

After the self-introduction, he did not continue to greet, but asked Keigo Oizumi next to him for specific details.

When he learned that Kita Sumi expressed his intention to enter the University of Tokyo.

Miyagi Hidego instantly became interested, and without much nonsense, he spoke very straightforwardly.

"If Kita Sumi can really enter the University of Tokyo as he said, then according to the original contract, we are willing to offer 100 million yen for advertising endorsement fees, how about it?"

"100 million yen?"

Without waiting for Kita Sumi to express his opinion.

Instead, Keigo Oizumi next to him couldn't help but look at Miyagi Hidego.

100 million yen.

This is a truly sky-high price.

Even he did not expect that Miyagi Hidego would agree so readily.

You know, Dankosha allocates a large amount of funds to the media department every year for advertising.

But 100 million yen for advertising endorsement fees.

This is definitely a sky-high price for the entire media department.

The endorsement fee of Kimura Takuya, who was nicknamed "Kimura God" by the Japanese media at that time, was only at this level.

Is it really appropriate to offer 100 million yen for endorsement fees to Kita Sumire, a child actor?

Probably seeing Oizumi Keigo's thoughts.

Miyagi Hidego smiled and gave him a look.

He saw it clearly.

100 million yen is indeed a sky-high contract for the entire media department.

But that premise is that Kita Sumire can successfully enroll in the University of Tokyo.

And if Kita Sumire succeeds, then they will make a lot of money.

One hundred million yen advertising endorsement fee in exchange for a social hot topic of "the youngest student enrolled in the University of Tokyo" will definitely directly detonate the market and make the latest tutorial review book published by Tankosha sell well.

And if Kita Sumire fails, they will not lose much.

At most, they can get the title of "the youngest in Waseda University" or "the youngest in Keio University". Doesn't it sound quite intimidating?

At most, the publicity effect is a little worse.

Anyway, it doesn't hurt anyway.

What if they agree to Kita Sumire?

Tankosha offered a sky-high salary of 100 million yen, and the only condition was that Kita Sumire must enroll in the University of Tokyo, otherwise it would be executed according to the original contract.

Of course, Kita Sumire and Tamura Koji had no reason to refuse this, so of course they agreed.

However, today was just a discussion of the specific content, and neither side brought a consultant lawyer, and no specific contract was issued for signing, so the signing would have to wait until the next time.

"Oh, I really have to thank Editor Kojima today."

Standing at the door of the tankousha, Kitasumi was very satisfied.

One hundred million yen. This is a huge sum of money in the true sense.

It's embarrassing to say.

After three years of accumulation, deducting tax and other things, his total assets are now only 200 million yen.

Suddenly, a big deal of 100 million yen was negotiated.

How could he not be happy?

"It doesn't really have much to do with me. It's mainly the result of the negotiation between Kitasumi and Tamura-san."

Chiyoko Kojima, who sent the two to the door, laughed dryly.

When she heard the endorsement fee of 100 million yen in the middle of the conversation, she was completely stunned.

Chiyoko Kojima's face was full of sighs.

But she sighed only for a while.

Soon, Chiyoko Kojima seemed to have thought of something and smiled and said, "Although we have negotiated the advertising endorsement fee this time, it is estimated that we will meet again soon, Kitasumi-kun."

"What do you mean by this sentence? Editor Kojima?"

Chiyoko Kojima's words were incoherent, and Kitasumi-kun raised his head in surprise.

Could it be that in addition to the new version of the college entrance examination reference book, Tankosha has other different cooperation tendencies with him recently?

"Huh? Kitasumi-kun, didn't Mr. Kitamizu tell you?"

Seeing Kitasumi-kun's strange expression, Chiyoko Kojima on the other side also showed a little puzzled expression.

"Tell me? What happened to Aunt Yubo?"

Kitasumi-kun was even more confused.

Teacher Kitamizu, this is actually a pseudonym for Kitamizumi Yuha's pen name 'Kitamizumi Yuha'.

"Uh"

This time, Chiyoko Kojima was really speechless.

Although she knew that Kitamizumi Yuha had a weird personality.

But how could she have imagined that he would be so weird?

There was no way, she could only sigh helplessly and answer for Kitamizumi.

"I guess Kitamizumi-kun didn't pay attention. Teacher Kitamizumi's new book "She and Him" ​​is a big hit. It has been confirmed to be adapted into a TV series and will be released in the summer of this year. I thought Teacher Kitamizumi would invite you to play the role of his nephew 'Shi'."

"Adapted into a TV series.?"

Okay.

Kitamizumi and Tamura Koji looked at each other.

This was indeed the first time they heard of it.
