An artist's success depends not only on their own abilities but also on the capabilities of their agency.
Our Burning Project agency is the most influential in the industry. Major TV stations, media outlets, and film companies will come to us on their own, so work and exposure are never a problem.
Therefore, the ladies at our agency don't need to worry about any unspoken rules or underhanded dealings.
"No matter what you say, I will not become an idol. Also, please move aside, I'm leaving." Huizhen was really annoyed by this person.
Seeing the determination in Kei's eyes, Kojima Ichiro knew he was probably doomed this time, so he stepped aside.
Hui left without the slightest hesitation.
Kojima added, "Miss, if you have similar ideas, you can call the number on the business card..." At this moment, Kojima saw Huilu's business card on the table and immediately changed his words, "Miss, if you are interested in becoming an idol, you can search for Burning Project online, and you can also find my contact information there!"
Watching Kei's departing figure, Kojima Ichiro sighed and then left as well.
He didn't give up. After all, rejection is common in their line of work. At times like these, you can't stubbornly persist; you have to try other approaches, such as persuading the girl's parents…
After Hui left, further inside the restaurant, the heavily pregnant Sumitomo Kojiro said to Sakai Miki beside him, "That girl was nice!"
Miki Sakai understood immediately, but still cautiously asked, "Then, the one from before?"
"Let's have both of them!"
Miki Sakai was somewhat worried: "But, your health..."
"Huh?! I'm not old yet, what's wrong with two people?"
"Hey! I'll definitely complete the mission."
"Okay, remember that quickly."
"Hi-ee".
"Oh right, I remember I have a sea-view villa in Aomori City."
Miki Sakai thought for a moment and replied, "That's right, you own a luxury seaside villa in a high-end residential area in the coastal ward of Aomori City."
"Oh, make good preparations, it won't be long before there's a new owner there."
Having served as Sumitomo Kojiro's secretary for several years, Miki Sakai immediately understood his meaning: he wanted to keep that girl as a mistress.
Sakai Miki was very skilled at handling such matters, and Sumitomo Kojiro kept dozens of women as mistresses, even reaching hundreds when he was young.
Miki Sakai replied respectfully, "Yes, sir."
Sumitomo Kojiro smiled slightly and then continued eating.
After leaving the cafeteria, Hui went straight back to her room to play mobile games.
During this time, Hui also considered: her soul count had reached 9600 million, but she was still 400 million souls short. If she could encounter the intersection of two worlds again, she could go directly to find the nuclear bomb and wait for several million experience points. If she didn't encounter it... it seems that this world also needs a US military base in Japan... Hmm, feasible!
······
In the afternoon, as the sun was setting, there was a knock on Hui's door. When she opened it, it was Kōta.
"Hui, how did you rest today? Are you feeling alright anywhere?" Kouta saw Hui in the room wearing a pure white chiffon dress and was immediately captivated. He thought she was very beautiful and immediately pulled Hui's hand, saying, "Hui, you are so beautiful!"
Hui noticed the amazement in Kouta's eyes and felt a surge of pride, thinking that the outfit she had specially brought was worth it.
Kouta's words made Kei blush. She lowered her head and looked at Kouta with expectant eyes, asking softly, "Do you like it?"
"Mmm, I like you, I like you so much I want to eat you right now." Kouta teased, quickly kissing Hui's cheek, making Hui's face turn bright red.
Hui said coquettishly, "I've noticed... you're getting naughtier and naughtier! You weren't like this before."
"Uh..." Kouta awkwardly changed the subject, feeling extremely embarrassed. "Let's go downstairs to eat."
After saying that, he took Hui's hand and they went downstairs together.
When Kei encountered Yuki and his group, she felt that Akiko Tachibana and Shoko Shimazu were looking at her strangely. When they caught her looking at them, she quickly looked away.
Hui didn't force the issue since she couldn't understand it.
Tonight's dish is sukiyaki.
The sukiyaki pot was already filled with large slices of beef, and the bubbling broth was simmering with fatty beef slices, onions, firm tofu, konjac noodles, chrysanthemum greens, cabbage, radish, kelp, shiitake mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, tea tree mushrooms, and other ingredients. The aroma was irresistible and made one's appetite soar. Not only that, but outside the pot, there were also plates filled with a large amount of stir-fried fatty beef slices and other vegetables, which only needed to be soaked briefly before eating. This was to ensure that there were enough ingredients.
After dinner, there is a hot spring activity. Of course, men and women are separated into two baths. Some people choose not to soak and go straight back to their rooms.
Hui did not choose to be naked with other girls in the same hot spring, not because she felt it was unhygienic, but because she felt embarrassed to show her naked body in front of outsiders, even if it was someone of the same sex.
In the quiet, deserted corridor leading back to the room, a woman's voice suddenly rang out.
"Miss Wagatsuma, please wait a moment!"
Chapter 116 Negotiations
"Huh?!" Hui turned her head and looked curiously at a beautiful woman dressed in urban attire.
He immediately recognized her as the secretary-like woman from the restaurant that morning.
"How do you know my name?" Hui asked.
Miki Sakai said in a low voice, "Miss Gasai, may I speak to you in private?"
Looking at the woman in front of her who seemed to have her figured out, Hui sneered inwardly and said, "Fine."
Hui followed Sakai Miki to a rockery outside the hotel. The area was quiet and deserted.
Miki Sakai adjusted her glasses and said, "Ms. Gasai, thank you for coming out. Let me introduce myself. My name is Miki Sakai, and I am..."
"Just say what you have to say!" Hui interrupted her long-winded rambling.
“Alright, I’ll get straight to the point, Miss Wagatsuma. I wonder if you’re interested in fifty million yen (about 300 million RMB)?” Miki Sakai asked in a low voice.
It turns out that Sumitomo Kojiro saw Kei at the restaurant this morning and decided to have a showdown between the two beauties.
Kojiro Sumitomo is a current member of the House of Councillors, and he also has another identity: a direct descendant of the Sumitomo zaibatsu family, who controls more than ten large companies under the Sumitomo Group. It is no exaggeration to describe him as having a high position and immense power.
In the eyes of the Japanese people, Kojiro Kojima was already very wealthy, so he would not be corrupted by money. Based on this reasonable reasoning, Kojiro Kojima ran for parliament and won a lot of votes, gaining the trust of the people.
Look, are the other candidates as wealthy as me? No, so they might be susceptible to bribery and corruption. But I'm different. In my eyes, money is just a pile of worthless paper. Only wealthy people like me can resist being bought off and will diligently perform their duties...
Indeed, in this way, there would be no more collusion between officials and businessmen, since collusion between oneself and oneself is hardly collusion!
Kojiro Sumitomo has never lacked women. When he was in junior and senior high school, he preferred mature women around 30 years old who were full of femininity. Later, as an adult, he liked young and beautiful girls around 20 years old. Now, at 47, his body is not as good as before, so he has started to like teenage girls who are still immature, and he prefers virgins because he wants to find the feeling of his youth in these girls' bodies that have not yet blossomed.
He came to the hot spring hotel in Sanchuan Mountain for two reasons: firstly, to relax and unwind, and secondly, to make a deal with a girl from Misaki High School. The deal would last seven nights. He would offer 5000 million yen for the first time when she was innocent, and then 1000 million yen for each subsequent night. In other words, the girl could earn more than 7 million Japanese yen in less than seven days.
This is indeed not expensive for Sumitomo Kojiro, who used to spend eight figures in one night.
However, after seeing Hui today, he had the idea of having sex with her again. After all, even he, who had seen countless beauties, had never encountered such a beauty before.
Furthermore, he decided to keep Hui as his mistress until his death, and that seaside villa was the gift he prepared for Hui when they first met. If Hui later gave birth to his child, he would not mind leaving half of his inheritance to Hui and the child.
“Oh—, if I say I’m interested, you’ll give it to me?” Hui asked back.
“Sure, it just takes up a few hours of Miss Sakai’s time. The 5000 million yen will be transferred on the spot. Of course, if Miss Sakai has any doubts, I can transfer a 2000 million yen deposit now.” Sakai Miki spoke as if 5000 million yen was nothing to her. In her mind, 5000 million yen was the income that most working-class people in Japan could earn in a lifetime. She didn’t believe that this girl, who was almost too beautiful but dressed in ordinary clothes, wouldn’t be tempted. She could almost hear the girl’s ecstatic agreement.
"Hehe!" Hui chuckled. "Then I'm not interested."
"Oh, okay, I'll transfer it now... Hmm! What did you say?" Miki Sakai was taken aback.
"I said I'm not interested. Okay, if you're going to keep spouting this nonsense, then I'm sorry, I'm leaving." Hui said, turning and leaving.
"Wait a minute, 1 million!"
Hui continued walking...
"5 billion!"
Hui didn't pause at all...
"10 billion!"
Hui still seemed not to hear him...
"50 billion!"
Hui quickly reached the back entrance of the hotel...
"100 billion!!!"
Hui had already stepped inside...
"Katsura Satoshi, don't be so stubborn! Besides, if I'm not mistaken, you're no longer a virgin!" Sakai Miki threatened.
As a maid and secretary specially trained by the Sumitomo family since childhood, Sakai Miki has been surrounded by people of great wealth and status. In particular, her abilities (in all aspects) are outstanding. After becoming Sumitomo Kojiro's secretary, government officials and directors of large companies all treat her with humility and deference.
Of course, she knew that everything she had was given to her by Sumitomo Kojiro, so she tried her best to fulfill any request he made, since there were many sisters who wanted to replace her.
Although she looked down on Hui, who was just an ordinary person, she didn't want to offend the girl in front of her who might become Sumitomo Kojiro's lover. After all, she knew how powerful pillow talk was, so she tried her best to appear sincere from the beginning.
She originally intended to use 5000 million to deceive the naive girl in front of her. After all, in Sakai Miki's eyes, a mere commoner's daughter would immediately lose her ability to think upon seeing such a sum of money.
But she didn't expect that the other party would be unmoved at all. Of course, she didn't think that the other party was doing it for ridiculous reasons such as dignity, loyalty, or love, because she had seen too many examples around Sumitomo Kojiro of how insignificant so-called dignity was in the face of money.
For example: A man once swore to kill Sumitomo Kojiro because the man had defiled his daughter. However, faced with a check for 20 billion yen, he chose to kneel down, pick up the check, and then deliver his wife and daughter to Sumitomo Kojiro's bedside…
Therefore, Miki Sakai believes that Kei disagrees simply because... there isn't enough money!
However, 100 billion is, to be honest, ten times her highest estimate. Although Hui is very beautiful, she is definitely comparable to the beauties who have made their mark in history. But no matter how beautiful Hui is, she is just the daughter of a commoner. Hui has no status to back her up.
If Hui is the Emperor's daughter, a princess, then 1000 billion, no, 100 billion would be worthwhile.
For the daughter of an ordinary citizen, 100 billion was her bottom line, but now it has increased tenfold to 10 billion, and the other party still seems unmoved.
You have to understand, 100 billion yen! That's a sum that even Miki Sakai can't ignore! And you, the daughter of a mere commoner, what makes you think you can compete?
"Why should I?" Hui turned her head and answered coldly.
This response perfectly matched what Miki Sakai was thinking.
"What?" Miki Sakai was startled.
Chapter 117 Want to Use
It's like walking down the street and having to decide whether to eat duck or chicken for dinner.
Suddenly, someone next to you says, "What's there to think about? Half a duck, half a chicken, just throw them together and make sukiyaki!"
...ask about the area of your psychological trauma.
"Commoner! Commoner, commoner, commoner, commoner... What's wrong with being a commoner? I don't see how noble you are, nor do I see any difference between the pig you're licking and the beggar on the street."
