Tokyo Video Game Tycoon: Chapter 151 The fall of a new star 1

Chapter 151 The Fall of a New Star (1)

In a luxurious apartment, a young man in his early twenties was lying leisurely on the sofa. Not far away were some athletes' clothing, baseballs, baseball bats and other sports equipment.

He is a standout athlete in the Koshien High School Baseball League.

　　Right after graduation, he was immediately recruited by a well-known team. Because of his excellent performance in the game, he quickly became a substitute player.

His future can be said to be bright. Now he has a fan club on the Internet with more than 10,000 fans.

 In recent times, he has also had the opportunity to appear frequently in TV programs, which has once again increased his influence.

 According to the agent, the number of fans is growing rapidly and is likely to exceed 20,000.

Every time he thinks about this, he feels very good.

　At this moment, he seemed to remember something and picked up the phone and dialed his agent's number.

“Hey, Kuroki-san, are there any talk shows on the TV station in the past two days? It just so happens that I haven’t been training recently, so I can take the time to show my face on the TV station.”

The manager Kuroki on the other end of the phone said helplessly: "Sato, the last time you promoted Suri Electronics' games on those four TV stations, you violated their taboo. They no longer want to invite you. Attended the interview.”

Sato frowned: "Isn't it just a mention? And isn't this also the request of Suri Electronics? As long as I say a good word about them on the TV station, I can give me more than five million yen. This kind of thing is Rarely seen.”

Agent Kuroki said: "Of course I know this, so since you are doing it for the money, you will definitely be excluded by those four TV stations. They are quite resistant to video games and regard video games as a scourge. In short, the relationship between those four TV stations The talk show will definitely not invite you again.”

Sato was a little dissatisfied: "These old TV guys are really old-fashioned. Didn't I just say one or two irrelevant words?"

“There’s nothing you can do about it, but don’t worry, it’s not a big deal. When you really grow up in the future, you will still be a guest of these TV stations. It’s not a big problem.”

"What about the other two TV stations? TV Tokyo and NHK TV. Didn't these two TV stations say they are not disgusted with video games? NHK also often advertises for Surui Electronics. Can I go to these two TV stations to participate in one or two A talk show? Or some variety shows."

Ever since the last live broadcast was successful, Sato began to feel that he should work hard in this area, as if he didn't do well, it would bring unexpected surprises.

"Well... let me ask, NHK should be possible. As for TV Tokyo, Sato, don't even think about it. TV Tokyo seems to be deeply tied to Yusei Electronic Entertainment. The two parties have a deep cooperative relationship. Go TV Tokyo will definitely be rejected.”

Sato said nonchalantly: "TV Tokyo? That's rubbish. It's said to be the sixth largest TV station, but in fact it's not even worthy of carrying shoes for the five TV stations in front of it. If you can't go, you can't go."

“Please be careful Sato, it’s okay for the two of us to say this when we are chatting, but we must not say this outside. Even if TV Tokyo is relatively weak, it is not something we can afford to offend.”

"Okay, okay, I get it. Oh, by the way, have there been any fans who have contacted me recently? They are the prettier ones." Sato suddenly changed the subject and asked his agent with a slightly raised corner of his mouth.

"No." Kuroki's agent directly gave a negative answer, and then said, "Sato, I have to remind you in this regard, you are no longer a junior high school baseball player in the past, but a Official athletes must correct their previous bad habits!"

 “Well, I’ll pay attention.”

 Sato was very unhappy.

 You are my agent, and I am the one who gives you the money. How come the employer who gives you the money is still under your control?

 Forget it, this guy is really unreliable, it seems I have to look for it myself.

　　The number of fans of the fan club is increasing recently, and some of them are good.

While thinking this, he walked to the computer and opened a forum web page.

There is a fan club forum set up specifically for him, and there are many fans who pursue him.

There are hundreds of posts on this forum every day, some discussing Sato's competition, and some constantly praising Sato. In short, it seems quite lively.

 But in fact, the excitement here is about 70% water.

 In today’s Internet, there is gradually an industrial chain of navy.

In order to increase his exposure, he decisively spent a sum of money to increase traffic to his forum every day so that more people would pay attention to him.

The remaining 30%, even for true fans, is actually pretty good.

Not long ago, he was lucky enough to find a good girl here, and they dated her for a while. Recently, he has become a little tired of it and plans to change his taste.

Just as he was watching the forum updates with interest, a reminder email was displayed.

The title of the email is: Sato, look at all the bad things you have done, do you still dare to say that you are a pure athlete? Rubbish.

Sato frowned when he saw this email.

what happened?

 What bad thing did I do?

Before Sato could react, he subconsciously opened the email and found a compressed package inside.

 The name of the compressed package surprised him.

 That was a name he was very familiar with.

　　 was his childhood sweetheart when he was in junior high school.

The two of them once fell in love with each other, and their relationship was so close that they were likely to get married almost immediately after graduation.

 But Sato, who became more and more successful, gradually became more and more successful, and he was caught cheating on many occasions.

Later on, the two gradually became estranged, and their relationship could never return to its previous state.

He hurriedly opened the compressed file. Inside were some photos from the past, as well as some written records about him being caught cheating.

Phew...it doesn't seem to be a big deal. Written records are meaningless. It can be said that some people made them up and maliciously slandered themselves.

As for his childhood sweetheart, he gave their family a sum of money a long time ago and strictly ordered his childhood sweetheart not to tell his past, otherwise he would cause his childhood sweetheart to die socially. This matter was handled by his agent. .

Looking at these photos, there were also some sweet photos of him and his childhood sweetheart, but at the moment, he only felt disgust when looking at these photos.

  Could it be that my childhood sweetheart is disgusting me? Or maybe you want to extort some money?

That's not possible. If this continues, something will happen at some point. He has to call her house and warn her.

 He casually planned to delete these files, but suddenly he found that his mouse could no longer be controlled.

 At this moment, the mouse actually moved on its own.
