I really just want to grind for entries related to crossover anime/manga.

He was old and weary of power struggles, and only hoped that his two sons could determine the victor based on their own strength, so that the Ran series could continue to flourish in their hands.

Just as Fumio Suo reached the door, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and an assistant rushed in, his face flushed and panting, clutching his phone tightly in his hand.

"what happened?"

The old man, who had seen many storms, was somewhat displeased with the other party's loss of composure.

"I'm sorry, President!"

Upon seeing the elderly man, the assistant immediately composed himself, bowed, and then spoke.

"We have great news! Our film, 'Love Like a Bouquet,' has been nominated for the Tokyo Academy of Film Awards! It has been nominated for three major awards: Best Film, Best Actor, and Best Screenplay!"

These words were like a thunderclap out of nowhere, instantly exploding in the office.

Suo Shun immediately strode over to the office, walked to his assistant, took the assistant's phone, and carefully looked at the news page on the screen.

Today, the Tokyo Film Academy Committee officially released the nomination list on its official website, and "Love Like a Bouquet" is prominently featured, receiving three prestigious nominations: Best Film, Best Actor (Yu Genkawa), and Best Screenplay (Yu Genkawa). As expected of a genius writer, it has once again garnered widespread attention!

"Great!"

Sufang Shun gripped his phone tightly, his eyes filled with excitement and exhilaration.

This is not only the greatest recognition of the film's quality, but also adds a significant weight to his inheritance battle with his elder brother.

Even though it's just being shortlisted, it's still a kind of achievement.

Upon hearing this information, Suoh Fumio nodded slightly, his tone carrying a hint of approval.

"Great, great! Our high-octane movie has finally reached this point!"

"Well done, Falcon!"

"Thank you for the praise, Father. I will continue to work hard."

After the old man left, Zhou Fangjun couldn't help but look at the news on his phone again.

Not all art films have the opportunity to be nominated for the Academy Awards, which in itself is a recognition of a film's strength.

"Genkawa-kun, you really are a lucky charm..."

On the set of "Kamen Rider Goku".

Yuan Chuan You had just finished filming a high-intensity action scene and was slightly sweaty. He walked to the rest area, picked up a bottle of mineral water from the table, unscrewed the cap, and took a sip.

The cool water slid down my throat and into my stomach, instantly dispelling the heat in my body.

He then leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes slightly to rest, but his mind was unconsciously focused on the box office performance of "Love Like a Bouquet".

Although Kazuya Nakahara would send him data every few hours, he still couldn't help but worry.

"Genkawa-kun."

Just then, a gentle voice sounded beside me.

Genkawa Yu slowly opened his eyes and saw Asakura Toru walking quickly toward him.

The girl wore a long dress and had neat short hair. Today, she deliberately showed off her smooth forehead, making her look even more cute and charming.

"What's wrong, Asakura?"

Asakura Toru quickly walked to his side, bent down slightly, and handed him her phone screen. She knew that Genkawa Yu valued the success of this movie, so she wanted to share it with her lover as soon as she saw the news.

"Genkawa-kun, look, your film has been nominated for the Tokyo Film Academy Awards! Best Film, Best Actor, and Best Screenplay – three nominations."

Three nominations?

Genkawa Yu's gaze fell on the phone screen, and he was slightly taken aback when he saw the official list of nominees released by the Tokyo Film Academy Committee.

So that's it?

Being nominated doesn't guarantee an award, but it does mean the film has gained recognition from mainstream cinema.

Japan is a country that loves to create gods, and he believes that with this opportunity, the film's box office will be even higher!

Hmph, I'm already working on what to say when I get interviewed.

"Not bad, it seems my efforts back then weren't in vain."

Yuan Chuan You thought for a moment, then gulped down another mouthful of mineral water, not caring that his clothes were getting wet.

"Now, the movie's box office should continue to perform well."

"Congratulations, Genkawa-kun."

Asakura Toru nodded, seemingly proud, his face showing undisguised elation and intimacy.

"Ah."

"that..."

Upon hearing the girl's voice, Genkawa Yu looked down at her face.

"We've been nominated for the Tokyo Academy of Film Awards, shouldn't we celebrate?"

"Probably, but I don't want the celebration to start halfway through. Let's have a unified celebration after the awards ceremony."

Genkawa Yu thought for a moment, realizing that he hadn't won any awards yet, and it wouldn't be wise to open the champagne halfway through the event.

"Mr. Genkawa was referring to your large-scale celebration; I was referring to the small one." Asakura Toru's tone was calm, but carried a strange undertone that left Genkawa Yu somewhat puzzled.

What are you planning to do?

He asked directly.

The next moment, the girl was close by, and her unique fragrance filled his nose in one breath.

Yuan Chuanyu then realized that there was actually no one around, it seemed that she had deliberately chosen an empty spot.

"I want to go with Yu to a place I've seen in a video."

"Where?"

Genkawa Yu couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

"Now that we're lovers..."

Asakura Toru lowered his voice, and a blush rose on the girl's porcelain-white face. "Then I want to go to a love hotel."

"?"

Volume 3: I Am a Knight of the New Era - Chapter 39: Time Management Master, Higuchi Enka's Shock! (2-in-1 5k)

When Asakura Toru uttered the words "love hotel," Genkawa Yu immediately lost his composure.

He stared at the girl in front of him, then subconsciously scanned his surroundings again to make sure no one was paying attention to their conversation before finally letting out a sigh of relief.

Then, Yuu Minakawa couldn't help but wonder, could this be her natural personality?

"Asakura, do you know what you're saying?"

His voice was very low, tinged with helplessness.

“We’re both on set right now, rushing to meet deadlines. Every word and action we take is being watched. Although I’ve previously refuted the Bunshun’s false reports and made them back down a bit, you and I are both celebrities. If we’re photographed going to a love hotel together, the consequences will be unimaginable.”

Genkawa paused for a moment, his gaze falling on Asakura Toru's clear blue eyes, his tone softening slightly.

"Besides, we've only been dating for three days. We're still in the stage of getting to know each other, and we haven't even had a proper kiss yet. Isn't it too early to go to a place like that?"

He didn't mean to reject Asakura Toru outright; he just wanted to tell her about the potential risks and improprieties involved.

Even so, Asakura Toru on the other side showed no remorse whatsoever; instead, her pretty face displayed a blank expression and a look of confusion.

The girl tilted her head slightly, looking at Yuan Chuan You's tense profile, her tone still calm.

"But I checked on the forum, and some couples go to love hotels after knowing each other for only two days. We've been dating for three days, isn't that a bit early?"

"...A forum?"

Genkawa Yu shook his head helplessly, and couldn't help but reach out and gently rub the top of her head. His fingertips touched the soft hair, and his tone was very serious.

"You can't believe everything you read online. Hasty beginnings often end just as quickly. I don't want to be so hasty with you, Asakura. I hope to get to know you slowly and cherish you."

"Ah."

Genkawa Yu's gentle words warmed Asakura Toru's heart, and she smiled slightly, seemingly accepting what he said.

"I understand, Yu."

Yuan Chuanyu thought she would give up, but the girl added seriously the next second.

"But I've already chosen a place, let's go take a look together."

"?"

Faced with Asakura Toru's "unyielding" attitude, Genkawa Yu sighed helplessly, feeling both annoyed and amused.

"Asakura, shouldn't dating be a gradual process?"

"I know that."

Asakura Toru nodded and continued to explain in a more relaxed tone.

"Yu, does going to a love hotel necessarily mean doing *that*? Can't we just go and take a look?"

She seemed to have found a way to manipulate Genkawa Yu, and deliberately asked a question in return.

"Or... is Yu also looking forward to this kind of thing?"

"..."

How come they suddenly took the initiative?

Genkawa Yu took a deep breath. Just as he was thinking about how to answer her question, he saw the girl take out her phone, unlock the screen, and hand it to him.

"Yu, I chose a love hotel in Chiba, which is more than four hours away from Tokyo. That way, we won't be photographed, and it's very safe."

The screen displays photos of a love hotel, with the room decorated in a "pink" ambiance, and seemingly featuring some special costumes and props.

It seems that love hotels are all the same style, no matter where they are, since their purpose is to help people connect.

"So, Yu, do you want to go?"

Asakura Toru's invitations were relentless, and Genkawa Yu thought about it. After all, he had too many things to do, and he needed to make better time arrangements to do this.
