I originally thought it would start after the New Year.

However, he still pretended to see it for the first time and pretended to be surprised.

I really don’t want everyone to know that I got the job through the back door.

If this kind of thing is known, it will definitely hit everyone's self-confidence.

Let them all feel that this is the result of everyone's hard work.

Although I feel a little guilty in my heart.

"Hey--this music director is actually the famous Mr. Sawano?!"

Itachi Hongxia exclaimed.

But others looked confused.

"Music director... Hiroyuki Sawano? Is he famous?"

Kita, who knew very little about music or animation, asked.

"He is called a genius... Even though he is a producer of animation music, he has already crossed over into the industry. Hey... doesn't everyone know this?"

"I don't watch animation very much..." Kita said awkwardly.

"Sawano is now a top-notch composer in the industry. Only very important projects will be entrusted with his music supervision. However, he is also very strict with the music, so if he takes this job, You must also be prepared to be criticized by supervisors."

Maezawa opened his mouth to explain, then turned to speak again. "So, all in all, this is a very important job. Please think carefully before making a reply whether you want to take it."

"If you are unwilling to accept it, then I will refuse as an agent."

This sentence is definitely provocative.

In fact, the president has already given the job to him.

The animation company also spent a lot of effort to get it done.

If the band refuses when it comes to the end, the most difficult person will definitely be Maezawa.

Maezawa crossed his arms and pretended not to care, but his palms were already sweating.

Ending the band if it really turns down...

Even if he knelt down on the spot, held Kotobuki's thigh and begged, he still had to make them accept this commission!

Several members of the band looked at each other, but no one spoke.

Everyone is hesitating.

Or maybe they are worried about whether a new band like themselves, who have just debuted, can complete such an important move.

"Next."

Finally, the boy was the first to make a sound.

"It would be a pity to shrink from such an important opportunity without even trying hard."

If you are rejected by everyone before you even start...

My father would also be angry.

Although he only mentioned a few words indifferently, he still made a lot of efforts through the relationship.

I can never live up to my father's expectations...

"If Kotobuki-kun says so...then we'll take it! Mr. Maezawa!"

After Kotobuki Hikari spoke, the girls felt relieved.

If he was here...then this could definitely be done.

I don’t know why everyone thinks this way.

"Okay, this project will officially start after the New Year. However, it is different from the previous one. In order to keep it confidential, you need to go to the animation company to work on site frequently, and the songs you create need to be reviewed by the supervisor first."

"Hey...but...but, we will start school soon after the New Year."

Yijizhi Hongxia's face immediately showed a troubled look.

"As for school, as an agent I can ask for leave for you... Generally speaking, as long as you ensure a certain attendance rate in high school and pass the exam, graduation won't be a problem."

"Ah... I know this. Our school seems to only need two-thirds of the attendance rate. I also have a friend who is a model at school. When she is working, she will also have an agent to ask for leave from the class teacher. ." Kita's eyes sparkled.

Every time that friend takes time off to work, everyone will be envious.

Maezawa had already made preparations and naturally thought of a solution. "However, this also requires the consent of your parents. Please tell me when you get home. If not... I will visit you."

"As far as I'm concerned, there's no problem." Kotobuki Mitsuru said.

You must not let this guy visit your home!

"My words...sister would also agree, right?" Yijizhi Hongxia was a little unsure.

"Ah...my parents should also agree." Goto Kazuri said.

However, the remaining two are in a bit of a dilemma.

Yamada Ryo and Kita finally asked Maezawa to convince their parents.

"Then, let's settle things like this first, ah... you need to sign this confidentiality agreement, because the project contains information related to the content of this animation, so it must not be disclosed to others."

Maezawa took out another pile of documents from his handbag and handed them to several people.

"Eh... I thought I could spoil it with my friends." Itachi knew that Hongxia's expectations were dashed.

"This kind of thing is absolutely not allowed! It would be too pitiful if it was spoiled!"

The girl's bold idea was killed as soon as it emerged.

At the end, several members of the band signed a confidentiality agreement.

If the content information of the animation is leaked because of his bad words...it seems that he will have to pay a lot of compensation.

"Well, I still have a lot of work in the company... I'll say goodbye first. This project will start after the New Year. Before that, I can get familiar with it and make full preparations in advance."

Picking up his handbag, Maezawa devoured his portion of the cake in one gulp, and drank the black tea in the cup in one gulp.

"Goodbye, Mr. Agent~"

The girls said goodbye to Maezawa.

"Wait a minute—Mr. Maezawa."

Just when Maezawa opened the door to the practice room, Ryo Yamada suddenly stopped him.

"how?"

"When will the income from selling our albums be given to us?"

"..."

Wouldn't it be rude to ask this question at this time?

The girls looked at Ryo Yamada awkwardly.

but......

To be honest, everyone cares about it.

If the sales were not good, you might not even ask because of guilt, but this time the album made millions on the first day alone...

How could you not care!

"So that's it... The company has time to pay out accounts, and sales also need to be constantly reviewed, so it should be done together with the company's salary... About the beginning of next month."

Maezawa himself breathed a sigh of relief.

If she suddenly says she doesn't want to do it anymore, be prepared to say no...

I really want to kneel down and cry to beg these high school students.

Chapter 253 Like a family

This year is coming to an end, and before we know it, it’s the last day of the year.

During the day, Kotobuki received a call from Ichiri. She seemed to have been reminded by her parents to inform her to go to her home and go to visit the New Year shrine with several people from the Goto family.

Therefore, Kotobuki Mitsuru changed into clothes that looked like a human and a dog early in the morning, and in the evening, he came to Goto's house again.

I seem to have been coming more frequently recently... I've been here several times in less than a month, and I've become familiar with the Yili family without even realizing it.

When the band ended, they still had the idea of ​​going out for activities together. However, they suddenly received another request from their manager, and no one had the time to go out and play. What's more, Kita already had an appointment with his family, and Hongxia also wanted to be at the livehouse. Liang helps her sister, and Liang also spends the New Year with her family due to family reasons.

The Kotobuki family has never had a tradition of visiting shrines with their families. Although New Year's Day is a legal holiday, the father, the head of the family, will always go out to socialize or hold a banquet at home on this day.

But the banquets at home were mostly attended by businessmen and politicians with interests. In that atmosphere, you had to hold your breath even when you spoke, and you had to pay attention to your wording and speak softly. Every time at this time, I find reasons to leave home.

Therefore, visiting the shrine during the New Year seems to be the first time in my life.

"Happy New Year, Uncle Goto, Auntie."

Kotobuki Mitsuru arrived at Goto's house.

A faint glow can already be seen on the horizon. It always gets dark very early in this season.

"Happy New Year, Xiaoguang... Oops, why did you bring so many things again."

At the entrance, the Goto family came out to greet Kotobuki Hikaru.

"After all, this is my first time celebrating the New Year with my uncle and aunt, so I prepared some small gifts."

"But...this is too much."

Just like the first time she came to Ichisato's house, Kotobuki Hikari held a stack of various gift boxes that reached the height of her cheeks.

Expensive gifts were thrown casually into the corner of the room. Just by looking at the glossy packaging, you could tell that these things were not cheap.

"Uncle seems to know how to drink. I brought the red wine that my father often drank."

In the living room, Kotobuki took out a wooden clamshell gift box from the gift box. After opening it, there was a bottle of red wine sealed with wax and full of ancient flavor.

"What is this...Ro...Romani...?"

? !

As a relatively traditional Japanese, Naoki Goto knew very little about red wine. At most, he had only heard of red wine brands such as Lafite [-].

It just happened to be a coincidence that the thing in front of him was the extremely expensive red wine that he had heard about at the bragging party.

Although Kotobuki Hikaru didn't know the quality of red wine, he could still understand the price tag.

After all, the last time he met Yili's father, he was caught because he went to a hotel with Yili, and he looked very angry at the time.

Therefore, when choosing a gift, he deliberately chose an expensive gift that would please him.

Although there is a gap in seniority between the two of them, no matter what they say, they will always be soft-spoken and short-handed...

He and Yili have already met their parents, and they feel that the relationship between the two is closer than that of lovers.

Therefore, even if it is such an expensive gift, it can be given away without any worries.

"I always feel that this kind of red wine is not worthy of drinking by a social creature like me..."

Goto Naoki murmured in a daze, while holding the wine bottle with both hands and putting it back into the wooden box, he even wiped the fingerprints he had just stained.

He subconsciously wanted to refuse. No matter what the relationship was, if someone gave him such an expensive gift, he would feel more afraid than happy.

But then I thought about it...

This kid even deceived his own daughter, so he can still feel at ease even if he accepts it.

So in the end I didn’t say no.

"Now that Xiaoguang is here, let's change our clothes and set off."

Michiko Goto interrupted the somewhat awkward atmosphere and pulled her husband out of his daze.

"By the way... Is Xiaoguang going to the shrine dressed like this?"

Michiko Goto pointed at Kotobukimitsu.

The clothes he was wearing were indeed formal, but they felt a little inconsistent with the atmosphere of the shrine. It was more like the kind of clothes that would be the centerpiece of a banquet.

"Ah...I don't have clothes like yukata and kimono..."

"Oops... I only remembered to prepare a kimono for Ichiri, but I forgot about Xiaoguang..." Michiko Goto looked annoyed. "By the way, Naoki and Xiaoguang are about the same body shape. Xiaoguang should be able to wear his old yukata... Although Xiaoguang is a little taller... Forget it, the child's father, please bear with me and wear it before My old yukata, let Xiaoguang wear a new one."
