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

He showed no signs of nervousness or unease, and a gentle smile remained on his face. He patted Kurokawa Akane's hand lightly, then took her hand and slowly walked to the sofa, where he stopped.

"Hello, Tamori-san, I'm Yu Genkawa. Nice to meet you today."

Genkawa Yu's voice was steady, his pace neither too fast nor too slow, and his tone respectful yet not humble, showing no sign of stage fright.

"This is Akane Kurokawa. I apologize for disturbing you."

Upon hearing his words, Akane Kurokawa barely managed to suppress her nervousness, lowered her head slightly, and greeted him.

"Hello, Tamori-san, I am Akane Kurokawa. Nice to meet you."

Tamori slightly raised her eyes, her gaze falling on Genkawa Yu through her sunglasses, a hint of barely perceptible curiosity flashing in her eyes.

Throughout his decades-long career in the entertainment industry, he has seen too many artists who are so nervous that they become incoherent when facing him. Whether they are newcomers who have just started their careers or veterans who have been famous for many years, they all show a sense of awe and unease when facing him.

But the young man in front of me, who was only in his early twenties, had a composure and calmness far beyond his peers.

Facing himself, he showed no nervousness whatsoever, and his tone was as natural as if he were greeting an old man on the street.

Tamori was silent for a few seconds, then a slow smile appeared on his lips.

"It's Genkawa-kun. I've heard so much about you."

"You flatter me. Please give me your guidance during today's recording."

Genkawa Yu nodded slightly, his face still bearing a gentle smile.

Fujiwara watched this scene with an interested smile on his face, his tone relaxed and casual.

"Tamori-san, I told you, Genkawa-kun would definitely pique your curiosity."

"Indeed."

Fujiwara Masakazu and Tamori are a capitalist who holds great power in a television station and a legendary entertainer in the entertainment industry, respectively. However, the two have a friendship that transcends their status and age.

Therefore, when the two met, there was not much formality or restraint, and they spoke very casually. Fujiwara knew Tamori's temperament and that he always appreciated talented and individualistic young people, which is why he specially brought Genkawa Yu to visit him.

Tamori smiled, then looked at Akane Kurokawa again, her tone still gentle.

"Kurokawa-san is also very good. I've seen the movie you two made together. Your acting is very solid and you have a lot of talent."

Praised by a senior like Tamori, Akane Kurokawa's tension eased considerably, and she smiled and said...

"Thank you for your praise, Tamori-san. I still have many shortcomings, and I will work harder in the future."

"Don't be nervous."

Tamori waved his hand, his smile still gentle, "You are all very talented young people. Work hard, and you will definitely make a name for yourselves in the entertainment industry in the future."

Genkawa Yu nodded slightly, his tone calm.

"Tamorisan, I will definitely do my best and won't let you down."

Tamori nodded in satisfaction, then glanced at the doorway. He knew there were many people waiting to greet him, so he looked at Fujiwara Masashi beside him.

"Xiao Zheng, didn't you say you had something to talk to Genkawa-kun about? You guys can sit on the sofa over there. Other artists are coming to visit me later, so I won't bother you."

Upon hearing this, Fujiwara Masashi immediately nodded and stood up with a smile.

"Alright, Tamorisan, then we won't bother you any longer."

After saying that, he turned to look at Yuu Minakawa and Akane Kurokawa and gestured for them to proceed.

"Genkawa-kun, let's go over there and talk."

Upon hearing this, Akane Kurokawa was slightly taken aback. She subconsciously released Yu Minakawa's hand, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes.

She knew that Fujiwara, as a director of the television station, must be discussing something important with Genkawa, and that she felt somewhat superfluous in such a serious setting.

Genkawa Yu noticed the girl's hesitation and acted quickly.

The next moment, Yuan Chuan You reached out and enveloped her slightly cool hand, then took her hand and walked straight to the sofa on the other side of the lounge.

"What are you standing there for? Sit down with me."

Akane Kurokawa suddenly raised her head and looked into Yu Minakawa's eyes, her eyes filled with surprise and disbelief.

She hadn't expected that Yuu Minakawa would be in such a situation... so openly holding her hand in front of Masakazu Fujiwara and Tamori, and even asking her to stay by his side.

It's worth noting that Tamori was sitting on a sofa not far away, and Fujiwara was a director of the TV station. Other celebrities were also coming in to visit later. Once they were seen together, their relationship would be practically public.

Yuu Minakawa had never planned to go public with their relationship, but when Akane Kurokawa confirmed the temperature of her palm, her heart suddenly began to race uncontrollably.

The girl's heart felt as if it were filled with a warm current, warm and soft, and all her unease and helplessness instantly disappeared.

Kurokawa Akane let him lead her to sit on the sofa. The girl subconsciously leaned closer to him, almost touching his arm, sitting quietly beside him like a docile kitten.

Fujiwara watched the interaction between the two, a knowing look on his face.

He was a notorious playboy in his youth, so he could naturally tell that the relationship between Yuu Genkawa and Akane Kurokawa was far more than just that of ordinary movie co-stars.

Of course, Fujiwara Masashi wouldn't reveal anything, since he had serious business to discuss with Genkawa Yu today.

The three of them sat down on the sofa next to the lounge.

"Mr. Genkawa, the main reason I'm here today is to talk to you about your future plans."

Upon hearing this, Genkawa Yu's smile faded slightly, and his expression became serious.

"What kind of plans would you like to know, Fujiwara-san?"

"Of course, it's your [Star Engine]."

As a director of the television station, Fujiwara Masashi represents the entire Fujiwara Zaibatsu, so he doesn't want to miss a chance to make money.

"After the 'burning' incident is over at the end of the year, I think Genkawa-kun should keep his distance from Suoh Hayabusa, right?"

"Hehe, that's just conjecture."

Let's just consider it speculation.

Fujiwara looked intently at Minamoto no Yu and said, word by word, "I can see that Minamoto no Yu has his own ambitions, and I can help you realize your ideas."

"For example?" Yuan Chuanyu knew what the other party wanted, so he asked in return.

“Hehe, Genkawa-kun, I’m really looking forward to working with you,” Fujiwara Masashi chuckled. “I’m different from Suoh Hayato. He wants too much. He wants to prove that he’s better than his older brother, and he wants to make a name for himself in the entertainment industry. He’s really greedy.”

"What about you?"

"I just want to be a hands-off manager; staying on the front lines is not my idea."

Fujiwara Masashi wore a businessman's smile. "As long as I receive a share of the profits every year, I won't interfere in any affairs."

"What do you think of these conditions, Genkawa-kun?"

"..."

Genkawa Yu thought about it and realized that Fujiwara Masashi's suggestion was indeed quite good. Not only was the other party a director of the TV station, but he also understood very well what the Fujiwara surname represented.

If you want to keep moving forward, leveraging external resources is actually a win-win situation.

After all, literary giants and the nobility were linked as early as the Edo period.

"I understand."

After a while, Genkawa Yu smiled and said, "I'm really looking forward to working with Fujiwara-san. By the way, I'm currently writing a new book. Once I finish it, we can start collaborating."

"new book?"

Fujiwara's eyes lit up, and then he said with a smile.

"That's really something to look forward to."

While Genkawa Yu and Fujiwara Masashi were chatting, Kurokawa Akane sat next to Genkawa Yu, listening quietly to their conversation without any intention of interrupting.

"Oh, right..."

At this point, Genkawa Yu asked again, "Does Fujiwara-san have resources in the idol industry?"

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Fujiwara Masakazu's face broke into a knowing smile once again. "I heard that Genkawa-kun can also write songs. Do you want to learn from Akimoto Yasushi?"

"It's just an idea."

"Haha, Genkawa-kun, you truly are a genius!"

Fujiwara clapped his hands and laughed, then said, "I have the resources in this area. If you need them, just let me know."

"Thank you, Fujiwara-san."

"Haha, I hope we have a pleasant collaboration."

"It definitely will."

Just then, the door to the lounge was pushed open, and the first group of visitors arrived.

Several young people dressed in smart clothes walked in, with shy yet respectful smiles on their faces, carrying their albums and gifts, clearly there to visit Tamori.

"Hello, Tamori-san, we are the xxx group from Jenny Agency. We look forward to your guidance today!"

Tamori slightly raised his eyes and waved his hand.

"Hello, no need for formalities, please have a seat."

Several young people responded respectfully, and at that moment, their gazes quickly locked onto Genkawa Yu and Kurokawa Akane, who were sitting on the sofa on the other side.

When they saw the two sitting intimately together, with Kurokawa Akane almost touching Minamoto Yu's arm and Minamoto Yu's hand gently resting on her shoulder, the young people all showed surprise in their eyes.

It's worth noting that, generally speaking, celebrities leave immediately after visiting Tamorisan and don't bother this big shot.

But as soon as Genkawa Yu entered, he actually sat down in the lounge without any hesitation, with Director Fujiwara accompanying him.

Dude, is Japanese TV really your company?

Moreover, the fact that these two are sitting so intimately together suggests that they have already officially announced their relationship.

No one paid much attention. After silently criticizing each other, they respectfully left the lounge, and then the next group of people came to visit.

Almost everyone was surprised to see Yuu Minakawa and Akane Kurokawa standing side by side, but since this was Tamori's home turf, no one dared to ask or say anything.

Genkawa Yu paid no attention to the stares of those people and continued to discuss the details of the collaboration with Fujiwara Masashi.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, more than half an hour had gone by.

Genkawa Yu and Fujiwara Masashi have already discussed their initial cooperation intentions and agreed to further discuss the details of the cooperation after Genkawa Yu's new book is completed.

“Mr. Genkawa is truly remarkable. If you have the chance in the future, remember to come to the Fujiwara family for a meal. I will introduce you to my father.”
