next stop king

Chapter 36 Toma Nakata

The purity of light.

The depth of night.

When both of these are tempting you.

you……

Who will choose?

In the gentle and gentle narration, all the shopping malls with Anna Sui counters.On the same day, with an unimaginable speed, it occupied the big screens inside and outside the store, on the wall, and at the door, and released the advertisement for the company's latest perfume.

As for the effect, does it need to be said?

Look at all these men and women in the streets who stop, stop and watch.Listen to those, the exclamations that come with the alternation of light and night.

That kind of power!It really defeated all competitors and successfully caused an explosive topic among consumers.

"Haruko, Haruko! That night was Ren, right? Although the dark demeanor is different from the gentle Ren-sama, but that appearance, that look, must be Ren-sama!"

It happened to be a rest day, and the girl who took her friend out for shopping yelled a few times, but she didn't attract her friend's attention. When she turned around and wanted to ask clearly, she heard a series of high and low discussions coming from around her.

"Master Lian!?"

"Anna Sui actually invited Lady Lian to speak for her this time? And the boy who appeared in the advertisement... If I read it correctly, it must be His Highness Ranmaru from "Warring States", right!?"

"Ah, look at that bright smile, look at the appearance that is emitting bursts of light, His Highness Ranmaru is really... Miyuki, what are you waiting for! Since these two are my idols, no matter what, this new product is my favorite too. We must support it!"

Situations like this happen in every corner of the city.The sensational effect caused by this advertisement was beyond the expectation of the company that shot this advertisement.

How many days did the ad run?

The counters surrounded by the third floor and the outer three floors here are really amazing.Count the crowded heads, and then look at the sparsely populated situation of other counters.

Although after a busy day, many nail marks will be left on the arms, but this time the head office invited these two to shoot the advertisement of the new product, it is really an unprecedented wise decision.

Tsuruga Ren, the King of Popularity.

Yu Mori Shuichi, the fastest rising star in the entertainment industry.

How many days have passed since the TV series "Warring States" was broadcast?

In less than a week, the most frequently appearing character in the headlines and entertainment pages of major newspapers has quietly replaced this 16-year-old boy.

All kinds of gossip during filming, all kinds of stills leaked out one after another, combined with last night's nosebleed trailer, after tonight's episode is officially broadcast, I'm afraid tomorrow's headlines will come to fruition again.

"Hey, hey, woman! My poster! Ranmaruden... No! You haven't given me the posters for Your Highness Shuichi and Lord Ren!"

"Yes, yes, hurry up and take out the gift for us!"

Looking at the women in front of them with rose-printed shopping bags in their hands, the staff standing in the counter quickly took out exclusive gifts of different products and sent them to the angry God.

No way, who asked them to do this job.

No matter how rude the customer is, as a salesperson, you can't argue with the customer. You can only face their complaints with a smile and do everything possible to meet the other party's requirements.

But, why is this new product selling so well?

It's only been a few days, and the sales performance has been better than the whole month before.Every morning when the door opens, the surging crowd hears the shouts of "Lord Lian" and "His Royal Highness Xiuyi" in their ears, and they really have to secretly admire the charm of the two people in the advertisement.

Tsuruga Ren, the man who has won the most popular male artist consecutively will not be mentioned.Because of playing the role of Mori Ranmaru in "Sengoku", the storm caused by Shuichi Arimori, who became a hit, is simply staggering.

50.00% [-], this is his audience rating after being accepted by the audience!

What's more not simple is that in the official character survey conducted by NHK, he surpassed everyone with an absolute advantage and became the most popular character in the entire TV series.

From the download of the stills on the official website, and the comments from fans in the LME section, it was as if in the blink of an eye, this young man had surpassed everyone and become the new favorite of the entertainment industry.

But it's no wonder, that image, that temperament, and the acting skills that were praised by the big director in the interview.It would be really strange if it wasn't popular under such strong strength.

Thanks to the gift of these two big men, don't they want to rest for a while, look at the endless crowd, and observe the expressions of these customers who want to eat the TV that broadcasts the advertisement.I really don't know if they came to buy Anna Sui's perfume or to get the two exclusive posters.

A bottle of perfume is nearly [-] yen after tax.

Seeing them buying both series at once without even frowning, I really have to sigh that women's money is really easy to make.

Unlike these staff members who kept sighing, Arimori Shuichi was busy getting some sleep at this moment.

As soon as he rushed back to the set after filming the commercial, he was naturally greeted by Akira Kurosaki's dissatisfied eyes, and the all-night reshoot plan.

No way, who made him popular already.If the filming is done in a leisurely manner according to the original plan, who knows that one day he will suddenly disappear again, leaving the crew to do other things.

Anyway, there are not many scenes left, and all the filming can be finished after three or four days of overtime work.Except for the episode of the finale of the TV series that needs to be filmed at a specific location, these other miscellaneous scenes can be done now, so naturally there is no need to delay it until later.

Trouble is very troublesome, but fortunately he is in a brave state and still maintains the good habit of never NG.The smoothness of shooting one shot after another is simply beyond everyone's imagination.

He worked overtime for a few days without any complaints, settled the progress that had been delayed, and even completed all the shots other than the burning of the Honnoji Temple at once.This speed really stunned the young actors who were waiting to see the show.

what is this?

They have struggled for such a long time without becoming popular, but this nasty boy has only used it for a few days? !They have reached unimaginable heights in all aspects.

Those flower baskets and greeting cards sent to NHK every day, the number of messages in those special sections, those people who hover outside the gate of the TV station and the gate of the studio just to catch a glimpse of him.

This guy's luck must be too good, right? !

Dissatisfied?So what if you don't accept it!In this line of work, people only get noticed when they are red.You can't afford to be popular, no matter how strong your strength is against the sky, no one will take a look at you.

All kinds of unwillingness and entanglements are tormenting the hearts of many people.Although it is inevitable to be hated and hated by others because of his success, it is not that no one is happy for his popularity.

That person is Toma Nakata.

To be honest, Toma Nakata felt very complicated when he saw Shuichi Arimori again.Who would have thought that in just a few days, this little guy who had disappeared for less than a week would become so popular.

decades...

He Nakata Tou really wanted to be popular for decades, but no matter how hard he tried, his worth was always maintained at a level that exceeded the difference between the second-tier and the first-tier.

How did you feel when you saw that child walk into the studio, greeted the director and was the first to rush to him and bowed to say hello?

Awkward?envious?Still a little bit self-deprecating?

Ha ha... I'm afraid, there are all kinds of thoughts.

Nakata-senpai, Nakata-senpai! ?

How did this little guy know that he would rather get rid of the respectful title of senior, and go back decades to become a man who is only a few years older than him!In that case, he would no longer be an uncle who was already buried in the soil.No longer a man who only dares to think but dares not to take any action...

He had never doubted his sexuality until he met this child.But it wasn't until after the nude scene was filmed that he left the little guy and returned home by himself, that he couldn't experience the somewhat complicated feeling.

Wanting to see him, I would dream of him in my dreams, and the silky touch when the avatar touched his chest that day... It made him... It made him, a 50-year-old man, no matter how he touched his desire, it seemed to vent his desire Not all the same.

He panicked, he was afraid, and he was even more self-aware.

Nakata Touma knew that with his status and age, he had already lost the right to like this child.Besides, people probably only respect him, right?Where would he be so shameless, dreaming about that kind of thing in his dreams, and constantly recalling the scenes he experienced in the hot spring at work.

You who think about these things day and night, really shameful!

"CUT!"

"Douzhen! What are you in a daze for?!"

The sound of bang bang bang came from the director's seat, and Akira Kurosaki rolled the script in his hand into a tube, and kept tapping on the table in front of him.

"What's the matter?! Could it be that you will be beaten back to your original shape as soon as you leave that little guy? Dazed! Dazed!? If you don't want to do it, get out of here, don't waste my time here!"

The old man who would never let the net go just because of a good personal relationship, wantonly sprayed his venom on the man kneeling on the ground.

What you let me down!Why are you worse than a child's ugly words, one sentence after another flew out of his mouth and attacked Nakata Touma.And the man who was being scolded, as if he didn't know what to say, knelt there upright and endured the oncoming baptism.

"Douzhen, what do you want me to say about you? You have been thinking about being popular for a lifetime, and you have clearly seen hope, why did you become like this all of a sudden?"

"It's okay to be dazed and forget the words, but why do things happen one after another that you can't find where the camera is? I ask you to cheer up, okay? This TV series will end in a few days."

Akira Kurosaki didn't know how to describe the leading actor in front of him.

Acting, he has it.

Although some of them lack soul, they are also old artists with excellent acting skills. "Warring States" has been decided on him from the very beginning of preparation, not for anything else!It is because of his hard work and stability that is well-known in the circle.

And the next development is indeed the same.

The tepid performances are always able to accurately interpret the characters.If he hadn't been immersed in the director's position for many years, I'm afraid he would really think like ordinary audiences that his acting skills are good, and he completely showed the true qualities of Oda Nobunaga.

later?

I thought this series would end in such a tepid way, but I never thought that at the end, LME's friend Takada Raleigh would give him a treasure.

The child conquered everyone from the very first scene when he entered the crew, and even made the man in front of him burst out with unimaginable energy in the next rival scene.

That energy, that passion!Just look at the latest audience survey to see.It's no surprise that Oda Nobunaga, who co-appeared with Mori Ranmaru, became the second most popular character!

When I returned to the studio after shooting the location, I didn’t realize it at the beginning, but as time went by, this guy’s reaction became more and more strange.It's okay when playing with that kid, but once he's away from that kid, sometimes he can't stand his clumsy performances.

Forget the lines, and sometimes don't pick up the plot.The old man really couldn't figure out what happened to this man who had always been stable and performed well! ?

Listening to the director's accusation, Touma Nakata certainly knew why.But what can he do, is he going to say everything in his heart?

Of course not!

From the very beginning, he knew that this matter could only rot in his stomach, and he must not let anyone know about it!On the one hand, he couldn't afford to lose face in front of his friends.

On the other hand, it is because...

He didn't have any intention of causing trouble to that child.

The man who was deeply trapped in his own thoughts sighed slowly in his heart, shook his head desperately to get rid of all the messy things in his mind.

Calm down, Toma Nakata!

Calm down...

In fact, from the very beginning, you knew that this matter was impossible to have any results.No matter how much you care about him, no matter how much you want to see him, the gap between you is too big.

Age is one thing, identity is another.The main thing is!This is just your own unilateral feelings, and the other party doesn't know it at all!

He just respects you.

And you only love and expect him.

This kid has a bright future in the entertainment industry, and you must not let him get into all kinds of troubles because of your selfishness!

Let go of the unrealistic expectations in your heart, and just be a loyal guardian, standing firmly behind him and acting as his backbone.This child still has a long way to go in the future. He will meet many people and encounter many things, and he will inevitably have problems that he cannot solve by himself.

By that time...

It's up to you.

In the past, you didn't have a definite goal other than wanting to be popular.But now it is different, what you want to pursue has appeared in front of you!

Protect him, take care of him, remove all kinds of troubles and obstacles for him.

Now that you have set your future goals for yourself, you must be enthusiastic and become a man who can stand behind him!Become a knight who can protect his life!

The only way to get along with him is...

It will not affect his respect for you!

Only then will it not affect the bond that was established between you with great difficulty.
