Tokyo Sound

Master Yin nodded in satisfaction, and then turned back.

I have to reply because I have too many acquaintances there, and they are all curious about where he has been for a while.

"How's your voice recovering?" Yin Ze didn't try to take up a seat. The seats on the set were a little bit particular, so he squatted down and talked to people.

"You are in good shape. Do you sound different from before?" Taneda Risa said with a smile. She was ill at the time, her throat was uncomfortable, and it was inconvenient to eat. She mainly relied on intravenous drips to maintain her physical strength during those days. Although she looks thin and pale, she is also beautiful, but it is better to be energetic.

"More powerful." Yin Ze made an OK gesture.

"It's not easy to meet so many of us during working hours," Hidaka Rina said with certainty.

"That's right, it took me several years to catch up with my seniors." Yin Ze said with a snort.

"The achievements you've made today are worthy of my training." Hidaka Rina also cooperated very well, saying in an air of seniority.

"You're on a business trip again? What kind of filming are you cooperating with this time?" Uchida Maaya couldn't help but ask. Voice actors are basically based in Tokyo, and this popular active actor who sneaks out to the countryside to work from time to time must be the first one.

"It's just a low-budget art film. It's not worth showing off. It's not worth showing off." Yin Ze said modestly.

"Brother, you are too low-key. You have already worked with such a great actor." Although Ohnishi Saori was the least experienced among the crowd, she was the most relaxed one. She also squatted down beside him, got very close, and said intimately, "I didn't expect to receive Yakusho-san's autograph."

"Hahaha, how can I not be the kind of person who goes back on my word? As long as you are happy, my hard work has paid off." Yin Ze was very cheerful.

"Brother is the best, hehehe..." Ohnishi Saori said gratefully. But just when she was happy, she suddenly felt a few obscure but somewhat sharp gazes on her. When she looked up in surprise, she found that there were only other seniors around with reserved and steady smiles.

Weird, weird.

"It seems that because of this business trip, you don't have any new TV animation work?" asked Risa Taneda.

"It's okay. I'm in NHK's exploration documentary." Yin Ze didn't care.

"Are you really trying to change your ways?" Hidaka Rina pondered. "It's possible that you and Matsuoka-kun are on the same path... But in terms of career, it's better to follow your heart. What does your agent say?"

"I'm the agent now." Yin Ze replied calmly.

"Isn't it good?" Saori Ōnishi gave an awkward yet polite smile.

Even Uchida from the same company was confused. It can only be said that Kashiwayi's indifference and chaos are beyond the version.

"By the way, let's go out for dinner together after get off work." Saori Ōnishi suggested enthusiastically.

"Dinner party? Just us?" Yin Ze stroked his chin, "Then should we invite Ayane and little brother Xiongma?"

"Ah, in that case, let's also talk to Shimazaki Nobunaga-san," said Ohnishi Saori. After all, these three people have the impression of being bound together both inside and outside the industry.

"This person is actually dispensable." Yin Ze said mercilessly.

“But with so many people here, it would be a shame to just have a meal.” Saori Ōnishi thought.

"Junior sister, do you want to sing something?" Yin Ze asked.

"Why don't we go to a physical store and play games together?" Ohnishi Saori suddenly had an idea and came up with a very wonderful plan, "Why don't we go play board games? It must be fun to see voice actors playing role-playing games."

I didn't expect that these words would alarm everyone.

"Well, let's just forget it." Yin Ze recalled the past and felt a little pain in his heart.

"Isn't Senior Brother an expert at games? Why are you still resisting?" Ohnishi Saori was puzzled. "You don't have to play games with high barriers to entry. Monopoly will do, right? It's relaxing and humorous, and just like Gobang, it's suitable for all ages."

"What are you talking about? What's the big deal?" Seeing that this group of people seemed to be plotting something, Matsuoka Yoshitsugu couldn't help but come over to listen.

"We were discussing going out for dinner and play after get off work," said Saori Ohnishi.

"Oh, that's a good thing." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu nodded.

"Then let's play Monopoly." Saori Ōnishi repeated.

Matsuoka Yoshitsugu's face suddenly changed, he was horrified. As if the protective seal had been triggered, scenes flashed through his mind, one of him being covered in leeches and sucking his blood until he went bankrupt and died of poverty, one of Shimazaki Nobunaga being burned into a holy relic but still outputting damage, and one of him being servile to the general and being hunted down until he had only his daughter to take care of him.

I never want to go through such a painful experience again.

"I won't go! No matter what you say, I won't go!" Matsuoka Yoshitsugu said loudly.

"I will also disobey your plan!" Yin Ze also said with full energy.

Risa Taneda, Maaya Uchida, and Rina Hidaka also held their foreheads with their hands.

Saori Ōnishi looked confused.

Weird, weird.

Could it be that elementary school boys still have secrets hidden in their drawers that have not been discovered by their class teachers?

Chapter 19: Not Active in Eating

I said before that there will be less voice acting work this season. It's true.

Because it takes the place of the agent broker's job.

And you have to send and receive emails regularly, and arrive at the office at a fixed time. Fortunately, I have the help of a foreign horse, otherwise I would have to experience the Tokyo hell rush hour carriage, which is definitely a representative and leading gathering place of negative energy in modern cities, and a very new Xiangxi corpse-driving gathering.

Yin Ze was the only person in plain clothes sitting in the office area. The enamel pot filled with hot water showed the temperament of a manager. But even so, there was a hint of workplace bullying. Is this the real use of temporary workers?

"Please help me put this table in chronological order."

"Come and help me with the prospects of this project."

"Are you familiar with the producer of this radio show? What are his abilities? Can he do big things?"

“What do you think about the prospect of voice actor live streaming?”

Kenki Kyoka has been very enthusiastic in sending invitations to form a team from across the table.

"I have little ability, how can I give advice to my sister." Yin Ze said in a fading voice, "Besides, I am just a temporary replacement, I just want to take some time off."

"Kashiwai once entrusted you with a job, and you just sat there and did nothing?" Kenki Kyoka appealed to her reasoning.

"We are already doing our best to keep the huge Kashiwaji system running. We dare not be distracted." Yin Ze shamelessly described the team of only three voice actors as a factory of 300 people.

"Ayane's schedule is closely tied to her career, and you're just going to sit back and watch?" Kenki Kyoka explained.

"...Do you and Kashiwa-kun usually work together like this?" Having come to this point, Yin Ze finally couldn't hold it in and had to say it.

"Of course, we help each other. You should also learn to rely on others in the workplace." Kenqi Kyoka nodded.

The relationship between this person and the agent is indeed much better than that of ordinary colleagues, and there is also a bit of ambiguity in it. But the person in question is not here, and Yin Ze cannot get an accurate answer, so he is forced to become the agent's substitute meal. This will cost extra.

After helping to process a few documents, Yin Ze frowned again, realizing that things were not simple.

Kensaki Kyoka has always given people the impression of being capable and heroic. From Kashiwayo's description, we know that she was once a mentor who brought up a famous idol singer team and saw through the traps and traps of the despicable former Dentsu department head. She is a very stylish and hard-core career lady. Such a confident and executive person will not easily throw things to others. But now she is so abnormal, even receiving a temporary task, and still talking and laughing, is it possible that she has also thought about resigning? !

'The sky really wants to rain~ I really want to live next door to you~? Stand foolishly downstairs of your house~ look up and count the dark clouds~?'

"Hello." Yin Ze answered the phone.

"Oh, I'm Moriki Hiroshi. How come the number of the cooperation contact is calling you?"

“That’s how it’s been during this time.”

"Okay, I'm here to talk business." Moriki Hiroshi didn't care about the power changes in other companies.

"I'd like to hear the details." Yin Ze listened.

"Isn't your company's Yoshitsugu Matsuoka starring in the animation "Food Wars! So we have to prepare for related activities. We want to have a special video of an interactive cooking show. I want to know first, can Matsuoka-kun cook?" asked Hiroshi Moriki.

"Of course, he often studies it privately, and I have eaten it many times. It is at a pretty good level for home cooking," said Yin Ze.

"That's good. So it's settled then?" Moriki Hiroshi confirmed.

"I can make the decision. I agree on behalf of my agent." Yin Ze was very steady, "But this remuneration..."

"Don't worry, you don't know me yet. If I were stingy, you wouldn't even be able to ride that Yamaha." The father-in-law of the blond-haired foreign horse said, "We are familiar with each other, so just trust me."

"That's true. Your vision is rare in the industry." Yin Ze sighed. This is a warrior who has surpassed the incompetent planning of the gaming industry and pioneered the concept of battle pass in the broadcasting industry. As a beneficiary, it is not an exaggeration to praise him.

"That acquaintance needs a favor, and a righteous man must help." Moriki Hiroshi laughed.

"Go through fire and water, Brother Hong." Yin Ze said in a firm tone.

"I've watched the movie 'Little Forest' in the cinema. The way you killed fish in the movie was amazing. I guess you have some cooking skills too. You also starred in the animation 'Food Wars: Soul of Life' this time. Haha, why don't you come and record the special features. We haven't worked together for a long time." Moriki Hiroshi persuaded him with reason, "I know you want to go the big screen route now. A venue that is too small will lose its style. Don't worry, I will definitely give you the highest price in the market."

"I can make the decision. I'm speaking on behalf of my agent to disagree." Yin Ze remained calm.

The producer sadly discovered that he was no longer surprised by the bizarre exchange management of the Kashiwai family.

"We worked together to reach the peak of the listening rate, and you just sat back and watched?" Moriki Hiroshi explained.

“…”Yin Ze was hit by the same flying knife.

"The four-cylinder motorcycle is still there, but the kindhearted man of the past is no longer there." Moriki Hiroshi said in a sad voice, "In the end, my youth and time were wasted."

"Okay, add me in." Yin Ze is always a man of great righteousness.

"Okay, it's settled. It happens that you are in charge now, so communication can be direct and we can save the middlemen." Moriki Hiroshi felt lighter.

……

A week later, Matsuoka Yoshitsugu accepted the plan. Although he didn't want to appear on camera, the remuneration was too generous, and he was never good at saying no. As long as others were sincere, he would always agree quickly. In addition, he had experienced a year of semi-frozen state before, and he knew that voice actors couldn't always expect to have their meals served to them every day. The iteration speed of this industry was too fast.

Well, it is better to work harder when you are young than to be unable to move when you are old.

Matsuoka Yoshitsugu sighed and had to postpone the driver's license test. He had a beautiful idea at first, driving his brothers to go camping. The iron triangle sat around the campfire, looking at the snow-capped mountains in the distance, chatting under the stars and the moonlight. What a great scene, but he failed at the first step. The plan had to be changed, and the brothers who successfully obtained the driver's license would drive him out of Tokyo, but he didn't have time for vacation, so he failed again at the second step.

It's nice to have work to do, but it's not good to be too busy.

Matsuoka Yoshitsugu found that he was beginning to gain weight. He was not sure if it was due to the improvement in the economy and food. It was also possible that he was overworked due to work pressure and irregular diet. It was strange, he was so busy in the training center, so why was he still so thin?

But no matter what, when Matsuoka Yoshitsugu found that his old clothes were a bit bloated, he felt a chill in his heart. This feeling is probably the same as that of an ordinary middle-aged man who finds that he has signs of hair loss and suddenly feels a chill.

Okay, it’s decided. I will also reduce my workload a bit next quarter!

Matsuoka Yoshitsugu arrived at the special filming location on time that day. The setting was an open kitchen, with cameras on the table, ceiling, and front to ensure that there were angles. The stove, kitchenware, and refrigerator were all available, only the chef was missing. This environment and configuration were of course better than his own kitchen. But the desire to cook was suppressed. In the final analysis, this was a radio program with images, and cooking was like background music, a foil.

"Do we specify the dishes, or does Mr. Matsuoka come up with his own ideas?" Big Guy's staff asked, "If you want to make rare dishes, you have to find and buy the ingredients before the next episode. For example, steamed snails, braised beef, etc...."

"Let the production team arrange it. I usually make fried foods, steamed vegetables, fried noodles and fried rice. If the dishes are too difficult, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle them." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu said, rubbing his hands.

"Well, since it's your first time, let's start with making fried rice. Don't worry, we have specially invited a consultant who will explain every step to you clearly." The big Staff was full of confidence.

"Thank you..." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu frowned slightly. I was just wondering what the first issue was. Is there a second or third issue on this bonus disc?

Next, we visited the kitchen in detail. The refrigerator had all the ingredients we needed. After all, the program team provided three recipes today, so the ingredients were complete. The consultant was a practical chef who had opened a restaurant. He could easily make fried rice. He demonstrated it in practice, emphasizing the key points. Then, as expected, the finished fried rice was deliciously shared and enjoyed by several big-name staff members.

"Have you remembered everything?" said the consultant.

"I remembered most of it." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu said truthfully.

"The rest can be filled with experience and chef's heart." The consultant said seriously.

"This is the script. It lists the main process. Just take a look at it to get an impression. It's basically free talk." The main producer and person in charge, Moriki Hiroshi, handed over a few pages of paper.

Fortunately, there are several pages, not just one, which is a small consolation. Matsuoka Yoshitsugu looked down and found that the font was too big, so he wrote two more pages. He was speechless for a moment. After changing into the peripheral T-shirt and tying the same white headscarf as the protagonist, he waited for the recording to start.

By the way, why haven’t we seen any guests yet?

Just thinking about it.

A man came back from shopping with a squid leg in his mouth. He took off the squid leg with two fingers, exhaled lightly, flicked the non-existent ash on the leg, and finally ate the leg with big mouthfuls.

"..." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu only knew one person who was so pretentious and yet so fresh and unworldly.

"Hello, teacher." The big staff members said cheerfully.

"Okay, all is well. Long time no see." Yin Ze was quite impressed by these big guys.

"Hello, teacher." said Hiroya Moriki.

"Why are you so polite?" Yin Ze waved his hand.

"Teacher, you must have misunderstood. I'm not trying to imitate them and say hello to you. As the saying goes, there must be a teacher among three people. Now the host, producer and guest complement each other and each of them is a teacher. We will definitely get rave reviews. Opening this bottle of champagne in advance is as if celebrating the good days of us teachers." Moriki Hiroshi said as he produced another bottle of wine from somewhere.

Why do you guys who wear gold-rimmed glasses like to use this kind of void magic?

"You... are awesome." However, Yin Ze's sight was only on the bottle of French Dom Perignon. As soon as he used his dragon-catching and bull-controlling skills, the champagne fell into the hands of the thief.

"Bring three wine glasses." Moriki Hiro said enthusiastically.

"Aren't there just two of us, Matsuoka and I? What do we need three cups for?" Yin Ze wondered.

Moriki Hiroshi was speechless. He thought, am I not a human being as a project leader? However, the openness of this gold medal producer has become a legend. He waved his hand, and the staff pushed over beer and food for celebration.

"What are you doing? Opening champagne at halftime?" Yin Ze hesitated. Shouldn't he celebrate after the CDs were sold?

"Oh, it's impossible to lose money, professional producer, can't you understand this situation? I'm a professional, okay?" Moriki Hiroshi's self-confidence has spread throughout his limbs and bones, and he has even reached the level of confidence to use the Sound Nest Convection Fist's Bai Luo Mieshen level.

"Now is the time to go all out." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu triggered the Dragon God bond and was still able to handle the situation with ease despite being surrounded by multiple cameras from above, middle, below and sides.
