Chapter 1052: Whispering

"Oh, the dinner party has already started. I hurriedly hurriedly arrived but I was still late. Sisters, you really let me down. You actually started before I waited..."

Junko Miyashita, who can almost be said to have broken into the house, came to the party today wearing a gorgeous kimono just like Miwa Takada.

It's just that she was born with a carefree and reckless temperament, and her unconcerned manner of acting without caring about the occasion.

It doesn’t fit the reserved characteristics of Tokyoites at all, but resembles Osaka people who like to show off.

This makes her look like she is frivolous and gaudy even though she is wearing a kimono.

Speaking of which, it was like a big butterfly "flying" into the banquet hall.

And I don’t know if she is really hot or just pretending to be coquettish and trying to attract attention.

She held a handkerchief in her hand and kept fanning it like a fan.

All the female artists who were dining were stunned and all looked dizzy.

But despite this, Junko Miyashita, as the number one member of "Haikatsu", is after all one of the founders of the Huajing Club.

Despite his different status, many female artists dare not be disrespectful.

"Vice Chairman!"

"Vice Chairman!"...

As Junko Miyashita approached step by step, in addition to Miwa Takada, Yoshiko Ikegami, and Shizuko Sekiguchi, there were only a few people.

The rest of the people bowed slightly and greeted Junko Miyashita with honorifics.

"Okay, okay, it doesn't matter if you don't wait for me, I won't blame you. Anyway, I am an insignificant person, as long as you are all happy..."

Junko Miyashita continued to be arrogant, which inevitably made the atmosphere at the scene slightly awkward.

The female artists who had been chatting with each other just now suddenly became silent.

"Sister, you must be thirsty for coming here in such a hurry, right? Stop making such jokes with everyone. Drink some lemonade first..."

As a director, Ikegami Yomiko had a good personal relationship with Miyashita Junko, so she quickly spoke up to smooth things over.

However, Miwa Takada was a little bored by Junko Miyashita, and her tone was somewhat unpleasant.

"Yeah, since you're already late, what else can you say? Just hurry up and take your seat. We can't wait for you to enjoy the movie by yourself after a while, right?

"

But Miwa Takada soon regretted saying such words.

There is a special reason why Junko Miyashita is so arrogant and pretentious.

Essentially, I want to show off my achievements in public.

And Miwa Takada's attitude just gave Junko Miyashita the opportunity to use the topic to her advantage.

"Oh my, it's so sad that the chairman said this. I'm not late for any unnecessary things. After all, it's all for everyone. I won't hide it from you, I could have arrived early today.

In ten minutes, just because I met a friend at the door of the hotel and chatted for a few more words, I learned about the additional casting news for a big-budget movie..."

These words can be said to have stirred up a thousand waves with one stone, causing a fatal blow to the normal progress of the dinner party.

Almost all female artists immediately felt that the high-end dishes in front of them immediately lost their flavor.

The scene suddenly became agitated.

"What? A big-budget movie?"

"Oh my god! Casting news!"

"Vice Chairman, is it true?"

"What's going on? Who did you meet? Tell me quickly..."

Not to mention the female artists sitting at the bottom who couldn't keep calm, even the female artists sitting near the front row were equally excited.

This is not surprising at all.

Don’t forget, what is the original intention of these female artists to participate in the Huajing Festival?

Don’t you just come here to join a group to keep yourself warm, looking for career support, and looking forward to good opportunities?

Needless to say, Junko Miyashita's image immediately became taller, and even her slow movement into the table attracted much attention.

Also, her handkerchief-waving movements, which used to be dazzling, have become more personal and less annoying.

At this time, there was only one person in the scene who looked at Junko Miyashita with increasing displeasure, and that was Miwa Takada.

Of course she understood that this was Junko Miyashita trying to find a presence in the Flower World Club and show off her connections.

Although she was sure that Junko Miyashita's palace would never be able to threaten her position.

But coveting power and enjoying the vanity of being in the spotlight are her true nature, so how can she be happy?

Originally, she asked Junko Miyashita to be the vice-chairman, but she thought that this top "daily activity" leader was famous and had no brains, so it would be safest to let her be her deputy.

She never thought that Junko Miyashita would sometimes surpass her.

But no matter how unhappy she was, she couldn't directly intervene or block it at this time.

Because the bait thrown by Junko Miyashita is really attractive to these female artists who are still eager to make progress in their careers and even become famous.

Even two directors, Yoshiko Ikegami and Shizuko Sekiguchi, couldn't help but ask.

"Sister, what's going on? Please tell me clearly..."

"That's right, Shunzi, you naughty kid, stop trying to impress everyone. Say it quickly..."

At the same time, the indoor environment that was noisy just now suddenly became quiet.

This undoubtedly shows that everyone is paying attention and eagerly waiting for Junko Miyashita to quickly give answers to what everyone here is most interested in and wants to know.

Even Yasuko Sawaguchi, who just joined the Hanajingkai, is no exception.

Because she was the closest to Miyashita Junko, her smiling face even turned red with excitement, almost holding her breath waiting for Miyashita Junko to reveal the secret.

At this time, only Takada Miwa suddenly felt very uneasy.

This uneasiness is not due to jealousy that Junko Miyashita has become a famous person and has received such attention, but because of a vague premonition.

You know, she thrived in the entertainment industry mainly by relying on connections and information.

As far as she knows, in today's Japanese film industry, due to the increasingly diversified needs of audiences, the influx of European, American, Hong Kong and Taiwan films, and the popularization of home video recorders, the market is severely hindered.

As a result, the studio system collapsed and faced a complete depletion of funds.

Taking this year as an example, Japan's major film companies have invested in only 24 films with an ordinary budget of more than 300 million yen.

This is the year that we have done the least since the 1980s.

Among them, there are only a handful of films that can be considered large-scale productions and cost at least 500 million yen.

Some of these film projects have been completed and some are currently being filmed and produced.

Among the movies currently being produced, there is only one "Dunhuang" with a shockingly large budget, which is unprecedented in history, totaling 4.5 billion yen.

That's the one with an investment of one billion yen, which became a hot news in the entertainment industry not long ago...

"...Oh, the friend I met is Matsumoto Keiko. As for the big-budget movie that requires additional casting, of course it's "Li Xianglan", a Japanese-Chinese co-production with a projected investment of one billion yen by Fog Studio!"

Sure enough, what came out of Junko Miyashita's mouth was exactly the answer Miwa Takada didn't want to hear.

Watching Junko Miyashita proudly tell the story.

Miwa Takada's face began to darken unconsciously.

She bit her lip tightly and managed to hold back the bad emotions that arose in her heart. She almost cursed and lost her composure on the spot.

And what exactly is this?

Fortunately, Junko Miyashita arrived at the dinner party early today.

And since it was inconvenient to drive while wearing a kimono, she came by taxi.

Unexpectedly, she arrived at the Tokyo Prince Hotel in a taxi. Before she could pay off the bill, a stretched Cadillac followed the taxi and stopped in front of the hotel's main entrance.

When Junko Miyashita paid and got out of the car, she happened to bump into Keiko Matsumoto, who was getting out of the Cadillac.

Junko Miyashita, who has a straightforward personality, did not know that there was already a discord between Keiko Matsumoto and Miwa Takada.

She only learned through TV news and sports newspaper reports that Keiko Matsumoto seemed to have recently become the owner of a studio.

When he saw her arriving in such a luxurious car, he was naturally full of curiosity.

Given her personality, it would be crazy if she didn't go up to her and chat for a few words, and get to know the inside story.

As for Matsumoto Keiko, she also had a few meals with Miyashita Junko, but she didn't know that she was getting closer to Takada Miwa.

Although she had made an appointment with someone to talk about something today, she came a little early and it wasn't time to meet him, yet it was still such a chance encounter.

He readily agreed and followed Junko Miyashita to the bar on the second floor of the hotel to sit down and drink a cup of coffee.

In this way, Miyashita Junko and Matsumoto Keiko chatted about each other's current situation.

I heard that Matsumoto Keiko actually bought Matsumoto Seicho's Fog Film Factory, and the current financial situation is in good shape.
