Chapter 292 The first visit to Kabukicho
Ishida Takumi flicked his tail beautifully, and parked the car firmly in the parking space marked by the yellow line.

Loosening the seat belt, he glanced at Kazuki Akiyama who was packing up, and joked with a smile, "How is it, is it exciting to come to this kind of place for the first time?"

"Hayakawa-chan might be happy to discuss this issue with you." Kazuki Akiyama replied with a smile.

"Hey, you bastard..." Ishida Takumi subconsciously looked around when he heard him say that.

"Ha." Kazuki Akiyama couldn't help laughing at his guilty look, "Don't worry, Hayakawa-chan will go shopping with Sachiko and the others tonight."

"It's too much." Although he complained like this, Ishida Takumi still helped him organize several demos and materials.

After the two got off the car, they saw the colorful and dazzling neon signs not far away, and they couldn't help being a little distracted.

"Let's go." Akiyama Kazuki patted Ishida Takumi's shoulder and took the lead to walk there.

"Hey, is this really okay?" Ishida Takumi asked worriedly looking at Kazuki Akiyama who lowered his peaked cap and raised his collar.

"The lady here is much more attractive than me." Kazuki Akiyama waved his hand, indicating that it doesn't matter.

Ishida Takumi caught up with him, and the two of them walked side by side towards the crowded street, with the "Kabukicho Ichibangai" signboard in red letters on a white background eye-catching above their heads.

...

In a high-end nightclub in Nimachi, Kabukicho, Kazuki Akiyama and Takumi Ishida walked into a VIP room under the leadership of the waiter.

"Sir, if you have any needs, please press the remote control at hand to serve you at any time." The well-trained waiter quietly exited the room with a notice.

Ishida Takumi skillfully picked up the checklist on the side and drew it.

"A regular customer." Seeing his familiar appearance, Akiyama Kazuki joked with a smile.

"Hey" Ishida Takumi raised his eyebrows and smiled complacently. Recently, he came here a lot for the public relations staff.

A few minutes after the two sat down, the guests they were waiting for tonight also arrived as scheduled.

"Hirai-san, please take care of me."

Seeing the leader, Kazuki Akiyama hurriedly stepped forward to greet him in advance.

"Qiu Shan-kun, it's been a long time." The familiar expression, the familiar smile, the same smell...

After greeting each other, Kazuo Hirai introduced Kazuki Akiyama and the others to the other two middle-aged people around him.

One is Sony Music Entertainment music producer Keiichi Sotomura, and the other is Sony Music Entertainment executive board member Ryuzo Shirakawa.

After getting to know each other, everyone sat down.When the guests are all here, the service will be seamless.

A wide variety of sake dishes are served one after another. Of course, as the biggest feature of the nightclub, the hostess is also indispensable.

A group of girls from Yingying and Yanyan, all dressed up beautifully, filed in from the door.

As soon as they entered the door, the seasoned women fixed their eyes on several middle-aged men.

According to their experience, guests of this age are often the group with the most pockets and the most generous spending.

Then I looked at the remaining two young people from the corner of my eye. Well, they are both quite handsome.

wait!That's... They blinked, thinking they were delusional.

After confirming that it was him, the hostesses almost screamed excitedly, but their good professionalism made them hold back.

This kind of high-end nightclub often has politicians and celebrities coming in and out, and they have all done targeted training.

Even so, he was still short of breath and looked there frequently.

"It seems that Akiyama-kun is very popular wherever he is." Kazuo Hirai joked with him rarely.

"It may be a little embarrassing to say, but I was a little nervous when I came here for the first time."

Akiyama Kazuki also followed his words and teased himself.

"Haha" His words made the other three couldn't help laughing.

"Akiyama-kun is here, is it really okay for Ms. Sakai?"

"Akiyama-kun is just here for a drink or two, why would Ms. Sakai mind?"

"Ha ha…"

Although he is a well-known entertainer with great scenery outside, he is also a young child here.

Thinking of this in their hearts, they laughed more and more happily.So he picked up the wine glass and patted Akiyama Kazuki's shoulder affectionately, chatting happily with him.

The hostesses with lively eyes were also seated one by one, and they were assigned guests before they came in.

Although the famous Kazuki Akiyama was right in front of his eyes, he still didn't dare to rob the guests openly.

He could only cast a jealous look at the colleague who was happily sitting beside Kazuki Akiyama.

With the addition of the hostess, the atmosphere became even more lively.After two glasses of beer, Kazuo Hirai and his companions had grabbed the hands of the hostess beside them and rubbed them repeatedly.

After finally dealing with the overly enthusiastic hostess beside him, Kazuki Akiyama raised his glass and approached Kazuo Hirai.

"Hirai-san, no matter what, I am grateful for your care tonight."

Kazuo Hirai smiled and picked up the wine glass and touched him. "Qiu Shanjun's talent has been seen a long time ago, and there is no doubt about it."

Last year, he took the initiative to ask Kazuki Akiyama to propose a cooperation invitation, and he was deeply impressed by the pure music made by Kazuki Akiyama.

This time, when Kazuki Akiyama mentioned on the phone that he had established a new music production company, he had expected it in his heart, and he readily agreed to his invitation tonight.

"However, in the future, we may need to consult Shirakawa-san and Toimura-san more about this business."

After drinking the wine in the glass, Kazuo Hirai said something that surprised Kazuki Akiyama.

"Eh?" Kazuki Akiyama refilled his cup while asking his own question.

"I'm going to New York in a while." Kazuo Hirai didn't hide anything, and it wasn't any confidential information.

It turns out that this year he will be transferred to the headquarters of Sony Music Entertainment in the United States to take up an important position.

He will no longer be in charge of the marketing department of Sony Music Japan, so today he will bring in the other two who are in charge of music production, Baichuan and Waicun.

"Qiu Shan-kun's talent is absolutely no problem, and the mere soundtrack must be even more so."

As if he heard Kazuki Akiyama and the others mention his name, Ryuzo Momokawa raised his glass and touched Kazuki Akiyama boldly, and he drank it upside down with his head raised.

"Happy!" Ryuzo Shirakawa and Keiichi Sotsumura, who were flushed, clapped their hands and clapped their hands when they saw Kazuki Akiyama drank it down.

Before he had time to say anything else, amidst the coquettish voice of the accompanying wine lady, he picked up the wine glass and drank with them happily.

Both Akiyama Kazuki and Hirai Kazuo smiled, and the two chatted about their views on Japanese music while drinking.

Kazuki Akiyama's novel remarks made Kazuo Hirai somewhat surprised by his avant-garde thinking.

For example, there is a popular trend in the music world every three years or so, and he is not even very optimistic about the prospects of his record company.

Being's dazzling performance last year, even a giant like Sony can't ignore its achievements.

But he didn't think so, which made Kazuo Hirai seem to know him all over again.

The two chatted enthusiastically, but they ignored the hostess beside them.

So Ishida Takumi was responsible for pulling them in, and they joined the drinking game of the other two Sony staff, and there was laughter in the private room for a while.
