Chapter 408: Chasing the Stars
This major drama, the first collaboration between Xiaohe Film and Television Company and Fuji TV, has been filming for some time.

On this day, Yui Natsukawa, one of the top managers of Fuji TV and the original initiator of this drama, came to the filming location in person.

Her arrival immediately made some people nervous.Who makes her famous for being strict?Surrounded by people in front and behind, she made a tour.

Ishihara Hideki took the initiative to greet him and said without being polite like the others: "Aunt Yui, what brought you here?"

Natsukawa Yui smiled slightly and said, "I was just passing by here and wanted to see how your work was going?"

Ishihara Hideki looked at her with disbelief and said, "Are you just passing by?"

Natsukawa Yui said calmly: "Why, don't you believe what I say?"

Ishihara Hideki said with a smile: "It's not that I don't believe it. If you said you came here specially to check my work, I would be more accepting."

Natsukawa Yui said bluntly: "Since we are talking about work, then you should explain it to me carefully."

Hideki Ishihara's smile remained unchanged, he raised his right hand and made an OK gesture towards her: "No problem. Please come this way."

As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly said to the assistant director, "Let everyone rest for a while," and then personally led the other person to another place.

After almost 10 minutes, a Toyota Alfa drove in directly.As soon as the car stopped, the side door opened automatically.

Masao Ishihara got out of the car unhurriedly.He walked in front, followed closely by Oda Ryunosuke.He also held a large bouquet of flowers in his hand, and Ryunosuke Oda also held a large fruit basket in his hand.

After a simple inquiry to a passerby, it was easy to find Suzuki Honami who was resting and reading the script.

Ishihara Masao quickly sent the large bouquet of flowers in front of the other party and said: "Mr. Suzuki, I am your fan."

Suzuki Honami calmly took the flowers and said, "Thank you for the flowers."

Ryunosuke Oda took the initiative and took a few steps forward, then sent the big fruit basket up as well.He didn't say anything, he just waited for the other party to accept it.

Suzuki Honami said politely: "It's really costing you too much."

Masao Ishihara said straightforwardly: "I have grown up watching your acting. In "Tokyo Love Story", you played Rika Akana, who was my former dream lover."

While accepting the fruit basket, Suzuki Honami couldn't help but confess: "Every time I hear someone say that he grew up watching me act, I feel so old."

Ishihara Masao blurted out: "Although you are almost 60 years old, you look nothing like me. You will always be Akana Rika in my heart."

Reina Honami put down the things in her hands and said: "What you said made me not sure whether I should be happy or sad for a moment? You haven't only watched my TV series, right?"

Ishihara Masao smiled and said: "I can't speak anymore. You will always be the same age as Akana Rika. Since I am your fan, I must have watched many of your movies and TV series. I also like the ones you starred in Japanese drama "News Girl"."

Suzuki Honami immediately recalled this high-scoring Japanese drama that she had starred in.She also won the 16th Japanese Drama Academy Award for Best Actress for this drama.Suzuki Honami thoughtfully said: "In addition to me, the other people who starred in "News Girl" at that time were Fujiwara Norika and Fukada Kyoko."

When Ishihara Masao heard the names of Fujiwara Norika and Fukada Kyoko, there were some ripples in his heart.He and they each have an unusual past.

Masao Ishihara took the initiative to change the topic and said: "Mr. Suzuki, although you have been away from acting for many years, your acting skills have become more mature since your comeback."

Suzuki Honami showed a wry smile.She knew very well that she had long passed the best period of her career.In recent years, although she has returned to acting, she has usually played supporting roles.

Even if there is a heroine role, she will not be the number one heroine, and the other actors who play with her will have smaller roles.Even if there are one or two that are okay, they will suffer from investment, script, etc.

Therefore, the film and television dramas he starred in have never been as popular as "Tokyo Love Story" and "News Girl".

Furthermore, when I starred in the Japanese drama "News Girl", in addition to Fujiwara Norika and Fukada Kyoko, there were also Takizawa Hideaki and others.

Takizawa Hideaki also won the 16th Japanese Drama Academy Award for Supporting Actor with this drama.In the minds of many people in this Japanese drama, not only did she perform well, but they also remembered Hideaki Takizawa.

As for "Tokyo Love Story", one of the classic Japanese idol dramas in which he starred, there are also Oda Yuji, Eguchi Yosuke and others.The series is also produced and distributed by Fuji TV.

This time, it is not the first time that I have cooperated with Fuji TV.In the past, I have often cooperated with them.It's just that she used to be the leading actress, but now she's just a supporting actress.

Faced with such a big investment and big production, she no longer expects too much.Even if this drama becomes popular, it has little to do with me. After all, she is not the heroine.

If there is any unwillingness in my heart, it definitely is.Xinheng Yui plays the female lead, she has nothing to say.The other party has both high popularity and good acting skills.But why did Hirosue Ryoko become the second female lead?

Even if she was once popular and was a goddess of a generation, it is all in the past.There is no essential difference from my actual situation.

In comparison, his reputation is much better than that of Hirosue Ryoko.There are a lot of scandals and gossip about Hirosue Ryoko.Even she thought that the other party was reduced to relying on these to maintain a certain level of popularity.

The third female lead is Kasumi Arimura, and the fourth female lead is Hamabe Minami.Although these two people are both their juniors, they cannot resist their current high popularity, especially among young people.

In terms of acting skills, I still only recognize Arimura Kasumi.In comparison, Hamabe Minami is not 01:30 behind in this aspect.

Suzuki Honami suddenly blinked her eyes and asked tentatively: "Why do you look familiar to me? I vaguely remember seeing you on TV. Is it possible that you are also an actor?"

Masao Ishihara smiled knowingly and said: "That's right! Part of my job content does have an element of performance in it."

Suzuki Honami smiled and said: "Listening to what you said, we can be considered as peers."

Masao Ishihara answered: "You are a senior."
