"This matter is indeed controllable, but I need to see a glimmer of hope before I can help you. In other words, you will need to work hard on your own in the early stages."
Takayanagi Ichiro acknowledged Ikezawa Yuko's idea, but did not offer her help immediately. Instead, he wanted to assess Ikezawa Yuko's abilities.
If she is a promising talent, Takayanagi Ichiro will definitely provide her with some financial or networking support at the appropriate time.
"What I want is your promise, Mr. Takayanagi, after all, I did share some ideas yesterday."
I didn't expect so many changes to happen overnight, so my thoughts also changed.
If I want to take over the firm, I'll definitely need Yoko's support. I hope Mr. Takayanagi can help me persuade her on that point.
It's not easy for a woman to persuade another woman, but it's much easier for a man to persuade a woman, especially now that Yoko Okino has become Ichiro Takayanagi's woman.
She had a rough experience of Takayanagi Ichiro's fighting prowess yesterday.
Yoko Okino will definitely be thoroughly humiliated, and who knows, whatever Ichiro Takayanagi says, Yoko Okino will think is right.
“You can sit down and discuss this slowly. I’m sure there will be areas for cooperation.”
Ichiro Takayanagi did not take on all the responsibility for this matter. If the two women really wanted to cooperate, they should sit down and have a proper talk.
"Okay, I'll come to her house now and talk to her. Anyway, she's not coming to work today."
After finishing her sentence, Yuko Ikezawa hung up the phone. She could roughly guess what kind of constitution Yoko Okino had.
"Mr. Takayanagi, do we really need to make some plans for the firm?"
Yoko Okino wasn't afraid of Yuko Ikezawa coming here at all, since it was her apartment, her home turf.
However, Yoko Okino still finds it hard to accept that Yuko Ikezawa has transformed from a small-time entertainer into a woman who dares to seize control of her agency.
"You actors or idols are making a living off your youth."
In a few years, you will definitely be replaced by some young and beautiful girls.
Therefore, it is perfectly reasonable to seek a way out at this time.
I understand that you lack emotional attachment to current events, but you can't let emotions cloud your judgment.
In response to Yoko Okino's question, Ichiro Takayanagi explained that it was entirely for their future benefit.
Yoko Okino had never seriously considered this matter before, but after the phone call just now, and with Ichiro Takayanagi's persuasion, Yoko Okino nodded seriously.
“Mr. Takayanagi, then I will work well with Yuko.”
"I just talked to you on the phone about your preliminary work. I won't offer any help; I just want to see your capabilities."
If you can impress me, I will provide you with financial and networking assistance later on.
You can mention this to him when she comes over.
"Takayanagi-kun, are you leaving?"
Yoko Okino is currently not concerned about financial or networking assistance; rather, she is somewhat disappointed by Ichiro Takayanagi's intention to leave.
Chapter 296 Yoko, We Should Unite
Yoko Okino only had the idea of wanting to be in a relationship during her high school years, but before she could even start dating the person she wanted, her manager threatened her, and the two broke up.
For so many years I've been working as an idol and have never had any intention of dating.
The reason I made that choice last night was because the old man had helped me so much.
Moreover, it's because Ichiro Takayanagi is so handsome that he perfectly fits all her requirements for responsibility.
After a night of passion, Yoko Okino finally understood why some women were addicted to that kind of thing.
If it weren't for her physical limitations, Yoko Okino might have become completely infatuated with him; all she wanted was to spend more time with Ichiro Takayanagi.
Unexpectedly, just as Yuko Ikezawa was about to arrive, Ichiro Takayanagi decided to leave.
"I'm just letting you enjoy your current situation. I'm not saying I'm going to abandon you. As long as your abilities are valued by me, you can definitely stay by my side."
Takayanagi Ichiro was the kind of person who would leave on a whim, and without any delay, he immediately got out of bed and started looking for his clothes to put on.
After hearing what Ichiro Takayanagi said, Yoko Okino nodded.
It would be impossible to make him completely dependent on Ichiro Takayanagi, after all, he hasn't been in the entertainment industry for nothing over the past ten years.
"Mr. Takayanagi, rest assured, Yuko and I will definitely demonstrate our abilities."
"I'm quite confident about this, otherwise I wouldn't have chosen the two of you."
Takayanagi Ichiro said he was leaving, but he didn't leave immediately.
Instead, he made breakfast for Yoko Okino outside, and then waited for a while before Yuko Ikezawa came over.
"Now it's your turn to talk, I'll be leaving now."
Ichiro Takayanagi did not reminisce with Yuko Ikezawa; he simply said goodbye and left.
Not seeing Yoko Okino outside, Yuko Ikezawa went directly to Yoko Okino's room and immediately became jealous upon seeing Yoko Okino eating breakfast on the bed.
Last night, Ichiro Takayanagi appeared at Yoko Okino's house, and the two spent the night together and even slept together. Yuko Ikezawa wasn't jealous at all.
However, the breakfast that Yoko Okino is eating now is definitely made by Ichiro Takayanagi himself, which is a privilege she has never enjoyed before, so she is a little excited.
"Yuko, didn't you think about asking Takayanagi-kun to stay?"
Upon seeing Yuko Ikezawa enter her room, Yoko Okino placed the bowls and chopsticks she was carrying on the bedside table, showing no intention of continuing to show off.
"If I were to strip away all pretenses and save Mr. Takayanagi, I would definitely be able to do it."
But at that time, in Mr. Takayanagi's eyes, I was a bad woman who wouldn't be of any help to us in the future, so I wouldn't do such a thing.
Yuko Ikezawa spoke very calmly at this moment, not sacrificing their future for momentary pleasure.
After hearing this, Yoko Okino was completely impressed. She realized that a woman like Yuko Ikezawa was not suited to continue acting in the entertainment industry, but could be better suited for management work.
No wonder that after talking with Takayanagi Ichiro, she immediately had the idea of seizing control of the agency.
Since that's the case, Yoko Okino didn't hold back and repeated everything that Ichiro Takayanagi had told her before.
"What we can do now is to demonstrate our abilities. Once we reach a certain point, Mr. Gao Liu will definitely provide us with some financial assistance."
However, I don't have the talent for vying for power and profit; I only have the talent for performing.
I can only do my job; you'll need to be more involved in the rest.
Yoko Okino is well aware of her own abilities; vying for power and profit is not her forte, unless her manager is not caught and can still advise her.
But even if her manager has nothing to do with this incident, Yoko Okino is unlikely to reuse her manager, after all, he is a man.
If she wants to find an agent later, she will first consider women.
Yuko Ikezawa had no objection to Yoko Okino's allocation of the prize money.
"All I need is your support in attitude and your support in important moments. Otherwise, I can work on my own."
If Yoko Okino were truly an all-around capable woman, she wouldn't have had the slightest intention of competing with the other party.
Yuko Ikezawa is currently skilled at vying for power and profit, while Yoko Okino excels at her primary job of acting. If the two of them work together, they can indeed take over the agency, but ultimately they will need Ichiro Takayanagi's financial support.
"You are indeed much better than me when it comes to thinking about the future."
Yoko Okino remarked at that moment.
"Actually, I hadn't considered any of these things before. I was forced into this situation by you guys. I guess I'm lucky now."
When talking about her past experiences, Yuko Ikezawa wasn't too angry; in any case, she was quite satisfied with the current outcome.
"Moreover, our cooperation is not just a simple collaboration, but a deeper one."
For example, you should take good care of your health. If you achieve results, the two of us will host a special dinner for Mr. Takayanagi.
If it were still the same Yoko Okino from yesterday, she would never have understood what Yuko Ikezawa meant.
But Yoko Okino, who had already experienced that wonderful feeling, immediately understood and her face turned red.
"I'm not just saying this casually, because Mr. Takayanagi has no need to focus his attention on us at all; the beauties in his household are likely to keep him too busy."
If the two of us don't seriously team up, we might very well be forgotten by him.
Yuko Ikezawa said this very seriously, which made Yoko Okino nod subconsciously.
Yesterday at that loan office, I only saw a mature woman and two energetic high school girls, but I don't think she could easily defeat the three of them.
What's more, there's a couple among them. If they team up, it would be even more attractive and exciting than a one-on-one situation.
"I understand. I will put some fitness or physical improvement plans on my agenda and try my best to learn from you."
Yoko Okino didn't want to lose Ichiro Takayanagi, so she agreed to Yuko Ikezawa's suggestion.
Chapter 297 Which family's ill-mannered puppy?
Yoko Okino personally experienced what Ichiro Takayanagi's individual fighting ability is like last night.
If it weren't for Ichiro Takayanagi contacting him, Yoko Okino might not have been able to move at all today, let alone confront Yuko Ikezawa like this.
Even if she trains her body in the future, she definitely won't be able to handle Takayanagi Ichiro on her own, so she'll have to seek help from outside.
The first outside help she could find was Yuko Ikezawa, since they were from the same agency.
Although the two are somewhat hostile due to their manager relationship, and Yuko Ikezawa has done some wrong things.
However, Yuko Ikezawa is able to admit her mistakes and correct them, and now they are working together towards the same goal, making them excellent partners.
We can cooperate in life, and now we can cooperate in bed too.
Yoko Okino's acceptance of her suggestion brought a sigh of relief to Yuko Ikezawa.
What she was worried about was that Yoko Okino clung to her image as a pure idol, and even if Yuko Ikezawa showed some moves, it definitely wouldn't be as good as the others working together.
"Yoko, it's good that you have this awareness."
We need to not only improve our physical fitness, but also learn more knowledge.
Yesterday at noon when I was at the office, I was not able to satisfy Mr. Takayanagi, and I believe that last night, out of pity for you, he was also not satisfied.
If we cannot satisfy Mr. Takayanagi, then we, as women, have failed.
