Tokyo Sound

"It's an hour-long online variety show that recommends and explains all the popular works of the two major groups. It's unique and has never been seen before!" Kashiwa Ippei clenched his fist and said forcefully. Just a few words showed his thirty years of experience in making cakes.

"It turns out to be a promotional program. They just invite two voice actors to be the hosts. Its nature is similar to the electrical appliance sales on TV." Kenki Kyoka suddenly realized.

"?"

"It is rumored that one of your voice actors has a close relationship with the 3rd Development Division of AQUARE ENIX. Could it be that this time it is also the young people who fanned the flames?" Kenki Kyoka paused and asked another question.

"Fake News!" Kashiwai Ippei spread his hands and denied it.

It is true that Yoshida Tomoki's status in the big company has risen since the great success of the reboot of Final Fantasy 14, and he is qualified to be an executive director, but he is not responsible for this at all. He just knew about it and mentioned it a few times. This matter was indeed earned by the agent himself from drinking parties with his iron-hearted strength.

"Jianqi, this is a good opportunity. We are close friends, so why not let Sakura go?" Kashiwai Ippei said generously.

"So, what's the price?" Kenki Kyoka raised her hands.

"Well, let's not talk about that. Just treat me to a simple meal after this." Kashiwai Ippei said.

"Okay, you can book the restaurant." said Kenqi Kyoka.

"...In that case, I have an invoice here, and we'll follow the specifications when the time comes." Kashiwa Ippei calmly took out the ticket for Ryūmín-tei that came all the way from Kyoto from his pocket.

"Haha, just kidding. You're really something. You can't even listen to polite words. I've been poor for a long time. I'll give you a box of cakes to express my gratitude." Jianqi Jingxiang said smoothly.

"Jianqi-san is so unkind. I helped you so much, but you are not even willing to pay for a meal." Kashiwa Ippei said, looking a little hurt. "It really makes me disappointed. Well, I'll look for someone else."

"You came to me without any warning and took the initiative to bring up this matter. No matter how you look at it, you are the one who needs help." Jian Qi Jingxiang said sharply and indifferently, "I don't know what your little plan is. Humph, but I don't care. I also have my own connections and resources for Ayane's work."

"Haha, just a joke. You're really something. You can't even understand a humorous statement." Kashiwai Ippei suddenly smiled.

"What exactly are you planning?" Kenqi Kyoka was really confused.

Kashiwa Ippei curled his lips and glossed over it.

It's just trying to get the skin of a tiger.

With the agent's current attainments in "Little White Dragon Behavior", he can probably foresee the whole process. First of all, he will definitely not be willing to do this kind of long-term and time-consuming work, so he has to play the favor card. For example, if Matsuoka Yoshitsugu went, then he would ask for help from his good brother, and most likely he would be a guest... Of course, this is just a metaphor, after all, Matsuoka would definitely not be willing to go.

But the idea is feasible. If Sakura-kun and Uchida-kun, who have a good relationship, are the hosts, then it would be difficult for someone who claims to be righteous to take the initiative to invite them. The best part is that this trick also works for the honest man Matsuoka.

Ippei Kashiwai was not asking casually. IM Company has always intended to manage idol voice actors. Both Sakura-kun and Uchida-kun are qualified.

A good poker player is one who can make everyone win.

It's time to let these two brothers take a good walk.

Of course, there are also disadvantages. For example, the channel is located on the AQUARE ENIX promotional website, and Yoshida Tomoki will definitely take the opportunity to make a profit.

But it doesn't matter. Yoshida Tomoki is a polite man after all, and the fight between them is like that of gentlemen, open and aboveboard, unlike Kyoto Animation, which has no martial ethics and always launches fatal sneak attacks.

The knight who was riding in the city with the blond horse was unaware of the undercurrent.

Chapter 144: The Hand of the Soul

Ride a horse and whistle in the west wind!

Yin Ze made a handsome turn and walked into the cheap apartment building. When he took off his safety helmet, he saw a girl upstairs picking up garbage with pliers outside. He was stunned and asked, "Why are you cleaning here?"

"For street tasks, you get paid sometimes." Asamiya Kazuki said while holding a black garbage bag.

"Good, good, do it yourself and have enough food and clothing. My little sister is really virtuous. She will definitely be a good wife who is thrifty and manages the household well in the future." Yin Ze couldn't help but praise.

"I just want to earn some pocket money." Asamiya Kazuki glanced at him and said simply, "By the way, I saw your name on the trend of the account before."

"They are all evil obstacles, all fake. There is no need to look at them." Yin Ze, who has no vanity, said with a disillusioned look, "Fame is like passing clouds and smoke. It is just a product created by the wishful thinking of the onlookers who do not know the truth. It is just a clay sculpture or wooden carving made by people in their spare time. Any rain, wind, or even a breath can blow it down and corrode it."

"You are so old-fashioned and not energetic at all." Asamiya Kazuki complained.

"The significance of pop idols has surpassed the scope of cultural creation. The works only account for 20%, and the rest are image, illusion, transactions and pressure... All of this is hard to bear." Yin Ze said as he parked his motorcycle, his bangs hanging from his forehead, with the depth and charm of a poet. "But I am an aesthetic seeker. My mission is to shock the inner spirit, not to cultivate idol worshippers."

"That being said, have you never admired others?" Asamiya Kazuki raised her little face, "For example, those famous painters, like Monet, Mucha and so on?"

Master Yin's movements stopped, and he successfully reconnected after a few seconds. "What are we having for dinner?"

"You're contradicting yourself so quickly!" Asamiya Kazuki glared.

"Hehe, it's normal for you to be interested in gossip about celebrities at such a young age, but I also hope that you won't lose your independence." Yin Ze taught like an old father, "The entertainment industry is a very high-level fame and fortune arena. After many years of evolution, it has become a greedy monster that knows human nature very well. Every year, countless idol groups are launched, targeting users like you. If they want to take your money and really need spiritual sustenance, they have to find a very reliable one."

"You don't want to say it was you, do you?" Asamiya Kazuki hesitated.

"It's better to give the money to me than to others." Yin Ze said, "Although I am not talented, I am willing to cooperate with your sentimental growth period. Let's put it this way, I will give you a 30% discount on the handshake coupon, and you can have dinner with me if you buy the platinum package. I can also help you solve the birth and fall of the Eastern Roman Empire, and I can also take you to play video games and experience a high-end game."

So the sense of distance is a mysterious thing. It sounds okay, but the girl above is not tempted at all. Maybe it's because she has seen too many people trying to kill fish but getting slapped in the face. The impression of the bloody fish butcher has deeply overshadowed the gauze clothes of the "idol".

"By the way, some of my classmates also know you," Asamiya Kazuki added.

"Is it Qinghua?" The only person Yin Ze could think of was the dean's most beautiful granddaughter.

"Not only that, boys know more, after all, they pay attention to anime." Asamiya Kazuki said, "I always see them repeating the lines you said on the radio and live broadcasts when chatting... Your sentence patterns are too versatile, it seems that anything can be applied to them."

After all, it is an Internet Bible that has emerged from the sifting of the sands, and its popularity can still stand the test of time. The man did not comment.

"No one wants you to be their intermediary, so why ask me for an autograph?" Yin Ze shook his hair exaggeratedly. "With a brother like me, you must be respected and admired by many classmates, right?"

"Not at all, because they don't know that you and I know each other," said Asamiya Kazuki.

"Hahaha, do you want me to ride a powerful motorcycle to pick you up at the school gate after school one day? Then, you can also get a part of my brilliant glory and become one of the legends of the campus. I guarantee that you will have a high status in the class groups in the future, and you will never be bullied or excluded." Yin Ze raised his thumb.

"No one bullies me." Asamiya Kazuki shrugged, "And you'd better not come... How should I put it, Qinghua also acted like she didn't know you at all and didn't care about you at school. It made me unconsciously hide it."

"Then I'm relieved. Girls in Tokyo are delicate and mature early. When it comes to mischief, they are even more mischievous than boys. Your family conditions are not so good, so I'm worried that you might compare and ridicule them."

Yin Ze nodded with emotion.

"As for the director's granddaughter, she is indeed a very good person. She has her own pursuits and will naturally not be bound by the mundane atmosphere. Xiangyue, you have a good mentor like me and a good friend like her. You really have a bright future. You should have a good dinner to celebrate."

"I have an appointment to eat with Qinghua tonight." said Asamiya Kazuki.

"Then why am I struggling here for so long?" Yin Ze was stunned as if he was deceived, and quickly said, "Don't play too late, remember to come back early, and call me if you have any problems. Pay attention to traffic safety when riding my horse, Pretty Lady. Okay, I'll go upstairs first."

"?"

After the man arrived at the house, he first changed into comfortable home clothes, then turned on his computer and mixed a stylish drink.

During the chat with my younger sister, I learned that I was actually somewhat famous among the general middle school students.

Could it be... Could it be that I am already a popular voice actor?

As a powerful person in the Curse Broken Realm, the seven deadly sins have been sublimated into seven virtues. There are not many people with such cultivation in the world. Even in Japan, where the competition in the field of art is extremely fierce and cartoonists often commit suicide in tears, he is still ranked among the best. But this did not affect his little interest at this time, and he searched for himself on the Internet.

Type "Takizawa Satoru" in the box on the Google page——

I haven't pressed the enter key yet.

What are the relationship terms that suddenly appear behind this?

"Takizawa Satoru Elredo"

"Takizawa Satoru and Hidaka Rina"

"Is Takizawa Satoru Yunxiao King a substitute?"

"Takizawa Gona Scene"

"Takizawa Satoru University of Tokyo"

"Takizawa Satoru and Matsuoka Yoshitsugu"

「Photos of Takizawa Satoru」

"Takizawa Satoru Hyōka"

"Takizawa Satoru admits that he likes Sugo Nobuyuki!"

"..."

It’s too complicated. The Internet is too complicated.

It feels like if you click on any of them, you will be redirected to some very strange sections and forums.

And I didn't see any connection with Shimazaki Nobunaga. I hope he hasn't searched for me, otherwise it would only add to the sadness and the iron triangle will encounter twists and turns again.

I'd better go to N station, where there are all video materials, which should be much more objective than the articles written by typing on the keyboard. The man has an account on the station, which he also uses for live broadcasts. Although the number of fans is not as high as that of the account, it is not small. There is basically no submission, but at the invitation of Yoshida Tomoki, he uploaded some videos of Final Fantasy 14.

I visit N Station frequently, so I was mentally prepared. I tactically ignored the bunch of weird secondary creations and the top 10 game show highlights. The rest were serious videos, and there were even some old ones... For example, the clip of being interviewed outside the school during the entrance ceremony of the University of Tokyo. God knows how this was dug out.

What is shocking is that there are actually fan introduction videos, which use the official photos of the agency as the background, and seriously explain the working experience, the roles played, etc. And the number of views and comments is also quite impressive.

The man watched for a while and found that the UP host understood more than he did, and even the background music was a hit song of the era that suited his personal taste. When he was about to give a thumbs up, he saw the UP name again - Grand Commander of the Three Armies of the Eastern Wu.

Damn, isn’t this the guy who made “Peerless Low Hand”?

This person fights but doesn't fight, retreats but doesn't retreat, likes and loves, twists and turns, why? !

The man held his forehead and finally decided to check Wikipedia again.

As expected, this is the most authentic pure land.

Compared to before, the content and information are much richer, after all, it has been a few years since his debut. The work he participated in, whether it was the main role or the supporting role, was arranged in an orderly timeline, which was clear. From this point of view, he has been to many film sets during this period of time.

The personal achievement column clearly reads "Champion of the 18th Tokyo University Most Beautiful Face of the Heisei Generation"... confirming his white glove status as a literary giant.

The personal description adds something.

"Takizawa Satoru, male. Born on June 1990, 6, 1cm tall, affiliated with I'm Enterprise."

"Note: Since I rarely accept interviews, this page only records information that can be proven by my achievements and what I mentioned in conversations at various events."

「2009年以轻改动画《漆黑转生幻想》的艾尔雷多一役正式出道，同年担任动画电影《萤焰之森》的男主役阿银。2010年担任原创企划《云烟府提督》男主役爱鹤。2011年担任动画《梦貘少女》男主役藤源海。2012年因饰演动画《冰菓》的折木奉太郎一角而声名鹊起被广为人知，同年继续担任动画《中二病也想谈恋爱！》的主役富?勇太。2013年担任动画《我的青春恋爱物语果然有毛病。》男主役比企谷八幡……」

"His voice is very clear, crisp and infectious, making him very recognizable. But he has a wide range of roles, and can play gentle roles, strong knights, and even perverts and monsters. His supporting roles are as good as his main roles. His acting skills have been recognized by many industry seniors and sound supervisors. He is humble and elegant, and he is kind and generous."

"He is a rare highly educated person in the industry, and he graduated from a national high school. He is said to be still pursuing further studies."

"He has a wide range of business. After his debut, he has taken on many movie voiceovers and documentary narrations. He also voiced a lot in children's animations, and he seems to enjoy it. At the same time, he has a very high level of painting skills. In the last episode of "Hyouka", he created the miracle of "three people in one episode". He has multiple roles from original painting to background. He is an extremely rare professional voice actor who can serve as a supervising animation. His handsome appearance should be his least noticeable advantage."

Because he is too serious and objective, and has to have evidence to prove it, there is not much information to write about although he has participated in many works. Therefore, his personal page reveals the aloof atmosphere of an elite who is pragmatic, hardworking, and not dependent on fame and fortune.

It's really amazing.

The man stroked his chin, scratched it casually, and then returned to the main page of Google Search.

He looked at the silent computer screen, and suddenly, as if on a whim, or perhaps by mistake, he inexplicably typed another name into the box - Yin Ze.

By the time the reaction came, it had already been knocked out.

Related words also jump into the eye.

Who is Yin Ze?

Compared to the long connection with Takizawa Satoru, these lonely and extremely simple words made the man's heart tremble suddenly.

who is it.

An ordinary, most ordinary question.

When I was in school, in a newly opened class, the teacher would ask who I was when confirming the new students. After graduation, when I first started working in a company, the project manager who came to inspect asked me who I was. I lost my wallet at the station, and the conductor took the ID card inside and asked me who I was in the car. At a funeral, the Taoist priest presiding over the ritual also looked at the young people standing in the front row, asking who I was and who my relative was.

Who is Yin Ze...

The man paused for a second or two, then gently pressed Enter. The page refreshed and several links with related content appeared. They were all professional original painting sharing websites and exchange forums. He clicked on the first one, and the number of replies to the post was relatively small. Compared with the comment sections of Takizawa Satoru's various videos and tweets, it could only be described as cold and clear.

"White cabbage: When I was doing data, I looked at the original art collection of Final Fantasy 14. The art is really amazing. There is a person named Yin Ze who impressed me deeply. His design draft is so clean. It is not clean at the level of brushstrokes and colors, but clean at the level of the project. My friend who works in 3D said that it is really comfortable to take over such a draft. It feels like a very standard commercial original painting specification. Moreover, many of the suits and monsters he is responsible for are quite novel and have strong composition. Not only are the two-dimensional designs beautiful, but they are also very eye-catching when put into the game. There should be very few people in China who can achieve such a balance between aesthetics and business. Does anyone know who Yin Ze is?"

"Katsuki Kura: I don't think I've heard of it, but to be able to take on so many tasks in a gambling project like Rebirth, he must be no ordinary person. The revival of Final Fantasy 14 is not the work of one or two people. Looking at the world, this case is also a very special one in the field of online games."

"Ice Gunner: Indeed, to be honest, I really don't know how Yoshida Tomoki convinced the management to dare to re-develop it. The previous game was a huge failure. My boss even said that he wanted to find an opportunity to go there to learn about personnel management experience."

“YsYooo: I’ll wait for the behind-the-scenes documentary. I’m really interested in the development process of the reboot. But many people left after it was completed. Yoshimoto Mihiko even went to a new company called CyGames. The pressure was really great.”

"Yuanchuan: Yin Ze, there is a user with the same name on Twitter. Judging from the pictures he posted, it should be him. Also, you can click on the fan list of his account and see a surprise."

"White Cabbage: ...Thank you, my friend. I've already gone to see it. This is a real boss. Are all bosses so aloof? It seems like he's not in business at all. Just looking at his profile picture and personal page, I thought he was a robot."

"Motokawa: That's probably not a domestic artist, and judging by his unique style, he might be an overseas employee. After all, AQUARE ENIX has its appeal."

"White Cabbage: You still work at AQUARE ENIX. The workload during the rebirth period was so heavy. After Yoshimoto Mihiko left, you should be the head of the art team now. There are so many talented people in this industry. I dare not neglect it for a moment."

“SmerJin: Thank you for posting, I also followed it. After reading it, I found that you have a wide range of abilities, including strong art, publicity and concept design. I want to learn from your aesthetics. To be honest, there are very few masters who are both famous and still fighting on the front line. And it seems that there is 3D assistance, which is also very novel. It is really helpful for working original artists.”

"YsYooo: In addition to the account on Twitter, do you have an account on other platforms? I don't think I can find it on ArtStation."

"White cabbage: mark one."
