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

After a while, seeing Yuu Minakawa and Toru Asakura come out, Megumi Kato quickly got out of the car. She was holding a folder in her hand containing the revised contract. The girl had a calm smile on her face and bowed slightly to the two of them.

"Mr. Genkawa, Mr. Asakura, you've arrived. Please get in the car."

The van slowly started moving and headed towards the restaurant.

Genkawa Yu leaned back in his chair, his eyes slightly closed, as he pondered how to discuss the transfer with Higuchi Madoka and the others.

Logically speaking, this kind of contract must be carefully considered. Although there is a personal connection, the revenue sharing for idols in Japan has always been very low, and Genkawa Yu will definitely be no exception.

"Minamoto-san."

Kato Megumi sat opposite Genkawa Yu and began to report on the details of the contract she had just adjusted. As a veteran of [Star Engine], although she was only Genkawa Yu's artist assistant, she had done these things many times before, so she was very familiar with them.

"I have revised the contract. I have made some detailed changes to the album revenue sharing, merchandise sales revenue, and resource support. You can take a look. If there is anything you are not satisfied with, I will make further revisions."

She handed the folder in her hand to Genkawa Yu.

Genkawa Yu slowly opened his eyes, took the folder, and carefully looked through the contracts inside.

The contract is very detailed, covering all aspects such as the artist's rights and obligations, album revenue sharing, merchandise sales revenue, resource support, and breach of contract clauses. Kato Megumi's revisions are also very reasonable, fully taking into account Higuchi Enka and the others' demands, as well as the interests of [Star Engine], and there is nothing unreasonable about it.

Asakura Toru also curiously came over, her gaze falling on the contract, wanting to see the specific contents as well.

Although she is a "love supremacist" and her heart and eyes are always with Yuu Minakawa, she still cares a lot about her teammates in the same company, such as Madoka Higuchi.

The girl knew that if her unit, Nocchiru, were to be transferred to Star Engine, they would face many difficulties and challenges.

After reviewing all the contracts, Genkawa Yu nodded in satisfaction.

"The contract has been revised well and there are no problems. Let's leave it at that for now. If they decide to change their nationality later, we will negotiate in detail."

"Yes."

Genkawa paused for a moment, then continued.

"Actually, I am confident that I can persuade them. After all, as long as they are willing to transfer to Star Engine, I will personally write songs for them and create exclusive singles and albums for them."

After all, having such a powerful attribute as [Song Producer (Purple)], we must make good use of it.

Sitting to the side, Asakura Toru was also looking forward to hearing Genkawa Yu's words.

"Yu, could you write a solo track for me sometime?"

"Of course, no problem."

Genkawa Yu hugged the girl, "What style does Toru like?"

"I'll accept anything you write."

Toru Asakura himself hoped that Nokuchiru could join Star Engine, and if his lover wrote a song for him later, that would be the icing on the cake.

Idol, actor, lover.

She wanted them all, which was a bit excessive, but Asakura Toru was prepared to face the challenges.

After all, idols can't rely on their youth forever.

About an hour later, the van slowly pulled up in front of a secluded members-only restaurant.

The driver got out of the car first and opened the door for the three of them.

Genkawa Yu, Asakura Toru, and Kato Megumi got out of the car one by one.

Genkawa Yu raised his head and glanced at the restaurant in front of him, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

"This place is actually quite nice."

"Thank you for your recognition, Genkawa-san,"

Kato Megumi bowed slightly and spoke in a gentle tone.

"Higuchi-san and the others should be arriving soon. Let's wait for them at the entrance for a while."

"can."

About three minutes later, a taxi slowly pulled up in front of the restaurant. The door opened, and three girls dressed in simple casual clothes got out of the car one by one.

It was Higuchi Enka, Fukumaru Koki, and Ichikawa Hina.

They weren't wearing makeup, revealing smooth, delicate skin. Their eyes and brows showed a hint of fatigue and unease, yet their outstanding beauty remained undeniable.

All four of them, plus Asakura Toru, are undeniably beautiful girls.

"Mr. Genkawa, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Higuchi Enka took a deep breath, suppressing her nervousness and trepidation, and stepped forward first, bowing slightly to Genkawa Yu.

Fukumaru Koitoshi and Ichikawa Hina quickly stepped forward and bowed slightly to Genkawa Yu, their voices trembling slightly.

They had only met Yu Minakawa a few times, so it was unlikely that they could speak as casually as Toru Asakura and Madoka Higuchi. After all, Yu Minakawa was a top-tier male actor, a figure who was already unattainable for them as idols.

"Hello, Genkawa-san and Kato-san."

"Don't be so polite, let's go inside first."

Genkawa Yu appeared very gentle, setting the tone for the discussion to come.

"We just arrived not long ago. Let's discuss things in the private room."

"Okay, thank you for your help, Genkawa-kun."

Higuchi Enka nodded quickly.

Led by the staff, Asakura Toru returned to her teammates. The four girls walked in front, while Genkawa Yu and Kato Megumi followed behind.

"If I can train them well, maybe I can strive to become like Akimoto Yasushi."

"Akimoto-san?"

Yasushi Akimoto is a legendary figure in the Japanese entertainment industry. He founded several outstanding idol groups, including AKB48, SKE48, and Nogizaka46, and earned profits by writing songs for these groups. His annual royalties from lyrics alone amounted to billions of yen, making him a formidable figure in the industry.

Since acquiring the powerful attribute "Song Producer (Purple)", Yu Minakawa doesn't believe he can lose to his opponent.

He just needs to plan slowly. Building an idol empire is not something that can be done overnight, but those who come after him are not without a chance.

Hearing Genkawa Yu's sigh, Kato Megumi continued speaking.

"Akimoto-san is indeed very impressive, but Genkawa-san, did you know that Akimoto-san's wife is Takai Mamiko, a member of his idol group 'Onyanko Club'? Genkawa-san, do you want to do the same?"

Upon hearing Kato Megumi's words, Genkawa Yu's smile froze slightly, and a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

To be honest, since Kato Megumi became his artist assistant, she has indeed occupied a very large part of his work and life. Moreover, Kato Megumi has always been a person who only does things and doesn't talk much, which makes him very worry-free.

But as time went on, Yuu Minakawa discovered that she had actually learned to make fun of him.

Of course, Yuu Genkawa didn't dislike this; on the contrary, he was quite happy because Megumi Kato finally seemed a bit "human."

“That won’t do. After all, this is one of the black marks in Akimoto Yasushi’s life.”

He turned around, looked at Kato Megumi and shook his head helplessly, then skillfully reached out and ruffled her hair.

"Kato, even though you're teasing me, I find it quite amusing. After all, you're a young woman too, and you should have your own personality, hahaha."

When Genkawa Yu touched her head, Kato Megumi was no longer shy, after all, it wasn't the first time, and she was intentionally guiding Genkawa Yu to do such an intimate thing.

Of course, she couldn't show it directly on the surface. Kato Megumi quickly lowered her head to avoid Genkawa Yu's gaze, then gently shook her head and answered in a soft tone.

“Mr. Genkawa, I wasn’t teasing you or implying anything. I was just mentioning it casually.”

She paused, then continued.

"Furthermore, there is a big difference between you, Genkawa-san and Akimoto-san. Although Akimoto-san is very talented and has cultivated countless popular idol groups, he cannot compare to you, Genkawa-san."

"why?"

Genkawa Yu, on the contrary, became interested and turned his head to carefully examine Kato Megumi's small face.

"Because you are more charming. Akimoto-san can only write lyrics at most, but you can not only act, but also write novels and songs."

"And last month you were voted number one in the Tokyo Daily poll for the 'male celebrity I most want to date,' which is something Akimoto-san can't compare to."

"..."

Genkawa Yu scratched the back of his head, puzzled.

"There's such a thing as voting? I didn't know that."

Kato Megumi smiled slightly, "Since it's just a newspaper poll for public entertainment, its influence isn't that great, so I didn't report it to you."

"Buy me a copy of this newspaper next time. I'm still quite curious about who's in the back."

Genkawa Yu smiled, showing no objection.

"Ok."

Kato Megumi thought for a moment, then said, "And I voted too."

"Whom should we vote for?"

"Of course it's you."

Kato Megumi tilted her head, her expression quite adorable.

"Would I vote for someone else?"

"Really."

Genkawa Yu smiled, and the two exchanged a glance, everything understood without a word.

Volume 3: I Am a Knight of the New Era - Chapter 72: Kato Megumi's Last Move? (2-in-1 5k)

Upon entering the restaurant's private room, the six people quickly took their seats in two different directions.

Asakura Toru was originally walking in the direction of Genkawa Yu, and seemed to want to sit directly next to him, but Genkawa Yu politely declined.

"Tou, we're talking about serious business today. You should sit down with your teammates first."

"Oh."

Genkawa Yu and Kato Megumi sat on the left, and then the four idol girls sat on the right, and the six of them quickly settled in.

Genkawa Yuichi took the lead in making the opening remarks, intending to make the atmosphere of the exchange more relaxed.
