Tokyo Sound

"There's no need to shout or anything like that, it's so embarrassing. It's nice to be like this occasionally." Takehara Yuyumi smiled gently.

"Well, as the saying goes, courtesy comes first. Next time, I'll treat you." Shimazaki Nobunaga didn't hesitate. "What do you want to eat next time?"

"I'm fine with it, just don't spend too much. Shimazaki Nobunaga-san's career has just started, and the cost of living in Tokyo is still too high." Takehara Yuyumi said quickly.

"Well, actually, I have other work, so it doesn't matter." Shimazaki Nobunaga said hesitantly.

"You mean part-time job?" Takehara Yuyumi tilted her head slightly, "I also have several part-time jobs. I started doing them when I came to university."

"Is it the same when you were studying? Miss Takehara's family doesn't support your living expenses?" Shimazaki Nobunaga asked, "Ah, my words are a bit abrupt, please don't mind."

"It doesn't matter." Takehara Yuumi shook her head. "Because it was my own decision to go to college, and there are other sisters at home. I am also an adult, and I should earn my own living."

"That's it."

"Why did you come to Tokyo, Shimazaki Nobunaga-san? Because you just said you failed the exam..."

"I have to admit that some things are only available in big cities." Shimazaki Nobunaga scratched his head.

If you want to be a voice actor, you have to live in Tokyo because that's where you can find work.

"My father has always hoped that I would become a doctor in the future. To be more precise, a dentist. At a young age, I also agreed with this path. Firstly, I always heard that doctors were well paid, and secondly, I felt that repairing teeth should be a simple task in medicine. Facts have proved that I was wrong. How can dentistry be that simple? How can treating diseases be that simple?"

Shimazaki Nobunaga poked the tofu in the bowl with chopsticks and sighed deeply.

"As expected, I failed the exam. I didn't even make it to the first step. I didn't even want to retake the exam because I could clearly feel that I wasn't cut out for it."

Every time I introduced myself when I was promoted to a higher grade, I would say “I want to be a doctor in the future”.

I have been praised by elders, teachers and students for having "ideas and aspirations" for so long, but in the end I can't even step through the door.

But this is the reality, so change your choice.

But what can you think of at the last minute?

And what can this temporary idea be considered?

"It was natural for me to become a homeless person. My daily life was just staying at home, playing games and watching TV. Sometimes I wanted to go out, but I found that I couldn't find friends. After all, my classmates were either in college or working."

Shimazaki Nobunaga recalled.

"When I realized this, I lost interest in playing games. Even though my parents didn't say anything, I gradually became confused. Then I really felt that time was passing by so fast. Every day and every week was passing so fast, like a faucet that couldn't be turned off, flowing and flowing... I finally panicked."

My old friends have started to make achievements little by little, become independent, talk about social topics, cars, policies related to people's livelihood, make plans to travel, go fishing, and some are even talking about marriage.

My old friends are starting to act like adults.

Shimazaki Nobunaga felt suddenly lonely.

It's not about being left behind, but about not keeping up.

So he went out every day to find out what his friends and classmates were doing, to see if there was anything he wanted to do.

You know, when he was in middle school, he was the student council president and a good student who gave speeches at ceremonies. But now, he has to wait until he fails the entrance exam and graduates before he starts to think about what he likes and what he wants to do.

"But I was lucky. A year later, I arrived in Tokyo," said Shimazaki Nobunaga.

The bedroom in my hometown is filled with all kinds of things that boys would like, such as games, cartoons, and hot magazines under the bed.

"I was really lucky. Even though I had no relevant experience before, I was still appreciated. I even made it to the final review." Shimazaki Nobunaga said proudly.

I want to be a voice actor.

This is actually an idea that is born out of a sense of escape... Since life is only once, it is better to focus on the things you like first and then see what happens next.

Before this, his understanding of voice actors was about the same as that of the general audience, or even worse than that of some deep fans. He just knew that there would be a CV list at the end, and those people were the staff who dubbed the characters.

I was really lucky. I signed up without thinking, and even though I had no acting training, I passed the selection of 91 Production and even entered the final selection. Although I was not selected, it was normal to lose. The professional level of my opponent was already professional.

Shimazaki Nobunaga was quite pleasantly surprised after this trip.

Maybe I am a genius in this field?

So he explained the situation to his family and started taking voice actor courses at the Qingyi training center. After that, he successfully entered the Qingni agency and became an active voice actor.

Everything went so smoothly that even my parents were surprised. How could I have registered so quickly?

The elders in the family also said that this child has been very capable and independent since he was young, so it is natural for him to have good grades.

However, this is only on the surface.

When he really entered the voice actor industry and began to face the problem of survival, Shimazaki Nobunaga regretted it a little. The extremely fierce competition, the fast pace of having to find a new job every three months, the lack of the scale of the entertainment industry but the dregs of the entertainment industry, the workplace and life pressure in Tokyo... In short, this is definitely not a comfortable career choice.

But now that I have come this far, I can’t give up, and I don’t want to give up anymore.

At worst, you can just gain some experience and qualifications. There will always be a day when you can succeed.

It was only after about two years that he made his debut successfully.

During this period, I had no main income and could only work part-time to make a living while waiting for my agent to notify me of an audition opportunity. This period of time alone was very touching. In particular, I missed the curry made by my mother. I really could not reproduce that taste, even if I knew it very well.

But I endured hardships and found joy in them. At least I was still moving forward slowly. Even though I met many seniors who had wasted their time, and even though I knew that this was an industry where one had to walk a single-plank bridge, I still had some thoughts.

After all, I have some talent and I am already at the forefront among my peers.

As a result, one day, I got a job related to games and met two people.

Shimazaki Nobunaga felt that his good luck had finally run out.

In terms of talent and aptitude, who among the voice actors of the same generation and the younger generation dares to say that they are better than Takizawa Satoru?

In terms of persistence and diligence, how many people can be like Matsuoka Yoshitsugu, who has the idea of ​​risking everything, sleeping only 3 hours a day and spending the rest of the time working and honing his skills? He even won the Best Newcomer Award instead of Takizawa Satoru.

Shimazaki Nobunaga saw the limit of his talent and the limit of his efforts on the same day. The road to the left and right has come to an end.

The mood is very bitter.

"My luck eventually ran out."

As Shimazaki Nobunaga said this, he couldn't help but smile slowly as he recalled the day they first met.

"I can meet those two top idiots and be friends with them. How can my luck last? Maybe I'll even get negative points, right?"

The tofu in the bowl was all flattened.

"Ms. Takehara, I can understand your worries to some extent. Who hasn't been anxious about themselves before? I'm just happy that I took that step at that time." Shimazaki Nobunaga's tone was full of expectation, "This world is good. It may be a little bad, but it's still good. If you don't take a trip, you don't know who you will meet or what will happen. I was also infected slowly."

After seeing the performance and perseverance of my close friends, I would not plan to boil tea on low heat even if I could find many excuses.

You have to train harder than usual, improve faster than them, and be stronger than them.

Because today, I have fallen in love with the profession of voice actor, and I like this field that brings me troubles and friendship.

The path to unity of mind and heart without regrets is already there.

"Ms. Takehara, you are more persistent than me and you will definitely succeed in the future." Shimazaki Nobunaga said again.

"I understand." Takehara Yuyumi smiled and nodded, "I'm very happy to hear what you said."

"Well, well, we, we are friends after all. It's only natural for us to talk about life and listen to our troubles." Shimazaki Nobunaga scratched his head.

"Yes, we are already friends." Takehara Yuyumi said with a smile.

The two men raised their beer glasses again and clinked them lightly.

Although the ice has melted a little, bubbles are still rising.

The man and woman at the next table had already paid and left.

The guests at this table who had remained silent finally dared to take off their wigs and speak out.

Here is also an ice cold beer.

"I used to hear the old people in the brigade say: To enjoy a peaceful life, you don't need to be an official. If you have money in your pocket, grain in your granary, and poetry and books in your belly, you are the prime minister in the mountains. If you are healthy, worry-free, and have no creditors, you are a god on earth." The man put down his chopsticks and sighed, "I felt like something was missing at the time. Later I realized that it was missing like-minded friends."

"It makes sense that he feels lucky to know you. But what's so lucky about knowing me..." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu propped up his head with his hands and said embarrassedly, "I'm just an ordinary person."

"Okay, have you finished eating? Let's hurry up." Yin Ze said.

"Ah, what else is there to do?" Matsuoka Yoshitsugu was puzzled.

"I didn't make it to dinner, so can't we have some late night beer?" Yin Ze's eyes widened, "I don't believe they still have an appointment at this time."

The two of them paid the bill in a hurry and walked out quickly. The hostess who was in charge of the accounts was still a little confused. She vaguely remembered that there were two girls with long hair at that table.

……

Shimazaki Nobunaga sent Takehara Yuumi to the subway station. Less than a minute after they separated, he received new news.

"Tauren Chieftain: Let's have a night of beer. It's my treat."

「Auto Mechanic: 1」

"Pure Moon Man: It's too late. Maybe next time."

"Tauren Chieftain: Then don't look back."

"?"

Shimazaki Nobunaga was puzzled and subconsciously looked behind him.

Then he was kidnapped by two idiots, one on the left and one behind.

"I told you not to look back, but you still looked back. It means you really want to eat and drink with us." Yin Ze laughed strangely like a vulture.

"At this late hour in the evening, I just want to go home, take a shower, turn on the air conditioner and check my phone. Who wants to drink outside?" Shimazaki Nobunaga was speechless at this elementary school boy's behavior.

"I didn't know you were such a shy person, oh." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu sighed sentimentally.

"Your tone of voice is so strange, why is it so greasy?" Shimazaki Nobunaga wondered.

"Hehe, no need to say more, we understand you. Let's quickly go to this month's Iron Triangle meeting." Yin Ze gently stroked the dog head of the Sixth Heaven Demon King.

"What on earth are you planning?!"

Shimazaki Nobunaga was somewhat frightened.

You know, last time, Xiao Bailong kidnapped him like this, and ended up throwing him into the overtime room that was like a prison. This time, the two of them came together, and their attitudes were still very awkward. They really didn't want to say anything too rude, but he was very scared.

As a result, that night we just drank and sang and had a great time.

And I was treated to a meal.

Chapter 177 The Ultimate Angler

There is no need for the Grand Commander to pass on the message about Big Brother's current movements.

Because for those fans who treat the big brother’s Twitter account as their circle of friends and check it whenever they have nothing to do, they will always be the first to discover the updates of the Twitter account.

Let me take a look... Well, the simple forwarding without any remarks is indeed the long-lost publicity business.

It turns out to be a special feature of the animation, and it also comes with previewable advanced content. I'll quickly click on it to take a look.

Hiroaki Tsuchiya opened the short video on the train.

The scene was a recording studio. As an animation expert, Liang knew a little about the dubbing process behind the scenes. He saw the male lead hiding in the back. He was just like a male voice actor next to him, hiding from the crowd and studying the script in a corner.

Although I had heard that Big Brother was very shy and introverted on the set, and basically kept silent, as if he was socially anxious, I was still shocked and couldn't believe it when I saw the evidence.

Perhaps beneath that gorgeous appearance lies a traditional and conservative artistic soul, so once on the set, there is no such thing as laughter, only wholehearted dedication and professionalism.

Sure enough, when it was his turn, the male lead was radiant and gave a lively performance, interpreting the role of a young man very well. During the break, the beautiful female lead was answering questions in the special feature, while in the corner of the camera, the male lead and the male supporting actor were still both with their hands in their pockets and their heads down, like ostriches.

Although I have known for a long time that my elder brother and Matsuoka Yoshitsugu are good relatives and friends, now that I see them, their synergy is truly perfect beyond my imagination.

I've seen his wisdom and resourcefulness on the radio, his humor at events, and his instant killing in the painting area, but it's very rare to see an elder brother at work like Akiba Shizumi.

Just when he was happy, the video of several minutes ended. Tsuchiya Hiroaki immediately frowned in annoyance. He could only pay attention to the specific release time of the special offer.

However, if you calculate the time, this "Akame ga Kill" will soon be finished, so it is normal to release special editions while it is still being serialized.

Tokyo Ghoul, in which he also played the main role, was also extremely popular. The protagonist's psychological changes, personality transformation, voice adjustment, and even the panting when he was scared, injured, and vomited were all so wonderful and unforgettable. There are many young people who were infected by it, realized the sadness, and changed their profile pictures to Kaneki-kun's new fans.

But in Liang's opinion, the purity of those who used Kaneki-kun's avatar was far inferior to those of his predecessors who used Elredo's avatar and Oreki Houtarou's avatar.

Hmm, according to reliable information, My Big Brother will have another main role in the next season, and his popularity remains high.

I guess he deserves the voice actor award this time, right?

I won’t talk about the Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, most votes, overseas popularity, etc. After all, the industry is full of talented people and there are many capable and competitive seniors, but the Best Newcomer award must be included... It’s strange that he has been in the industry for so long and is almost not a newcomer anymore, but with his works and strength, he has not won the newcomer award yet.

In fact, whether or not you win an award is not important. The first Voice Actor Award was only held in 2006, and the authority and value of the award are still slowly accumulating. Up to now, there are not many people who have won the award, and there are at least people in the industry, not including other entertainers who occasionally come to guest star. There must be many strong talents among them who have not received attention.

Of course, as the only award given to voice actors, it would definitely be better to win it.

At that time, the award column in the encyclopedia page will be updated. Now there is only one "Most Beautiful Face" in that column. Although it is undisputed, it seems that appearance is more important than talent, and he is an idol, which is inconsistent with reality!
