"Yes, that's right." Ren echoed Kaguya's speech with full approval.
'Kaguya-sama is truly wicked-minded, she clearly asked me to persuade him.'
Hearing her words, Hayasaka couldn't help but complain about her eldest daughter in her heart.
Then, she tried her best to smile and continue, "Alright, then I'll help Kamikawa-kun investigate if there's anyone willing to sell a planetarium."
"You're troubling yourself."
Ren thanked her.
"So, Kamikawa-kun, how much are you expecting to pay? That way I can help you choose more comfortably." Hayasaka picked up the bank card she placed on the table and handed it back to him, "It's not time to pay yet. When the time comes, take it back first."
"Everything's fine as long as you can buy it."
Ren took the bank card and placed it on the table.
"...Then after I finish the investigation, I'll tell you everything and let you choose."
Hayasaka felt even more that Ren couldn't be relied upon.
"Um."
"Is there anything else? If not, I'll go first."
Considering the investigation at the planetarium, Hayasaka prepared to leave.
"There's one more thing I need your help with."
Ren stopped her.
"We?" Kaguya noticed the keyword in his words.
"Yes, it's about Ichika." Ren continued.
"Ichika? Is there something wrong with her?"
Hayasaka did know who Ichika was, after all, she was the one responsible for handling her when Ichika joined the agency.
"It's okay, it's all about me."
After a pause, Ren said slowly, "I can pay your agency to make a movie, but I want Ichika to be the main character, okay?"
This is his gift for Ichika.
Ichika has been working hard to become an actor lately.
Therefore, Ren plans to start from this aspect.
After careful consideration, he finally chose to make a movie where Ichika would be the main character.
He was sure Ichika would like this gift.
Kaguya didn't know much about movies, so she could only look at Hayasaka.
Besides, she had never been to the movies before.
"Kamikawa-kun, do you want to invest in a movie, or do you just want to make a movie to make Ichika-san famous?" Hayasaka asked hesitantly.
"I just want Ichika to be the main character in a specific movie, as a gift for her."
Ren also didn't understand this aspect, so he could only hope to handle it in the simplest way.
That means spending money.
"Is the reason the same as giving a planetarium to Furuhashi-san?" Kaguya suddenly understood something.
"Um, those are all gifts from me."
Ren admitted it outright.
"Sorry, Kamikawa-kun, your idea of making Ichika-san the main character in a movie might not work." Hayasaka replied again.
"Why? Can't I pay for it?" Ren didn't want to give up so easily.
"Of course, Kamikawa-kun, if you insist on spending money to make a movie, there won't be a problem." Hayasaka explained, "But the problem is, Ichika-san isn't skilled in that area."
"She's only been in the agency for less than three months. With her current acting abilities, she can't be the main character in a movie."
"Is that so?"
"It's very relevant. You'll be criticized by others." Hayasaka explained, "Besides, no one wants to spend money to watch a movie with a very bad lead actor."
"If you ask her to be the lead actor in a movie now, besides satisfying her desire to be a lead actor in a movie, there's no benefit at all."
"And Kamikawa-kun, what you're doing isn't a gift at all. It's not an exaggeration to say it's a sweet trap."
"Then what should I do?"
Ren didn't quite understand what Hayasaka was saying, but he could hear the ill intent behind her words.
"First, you can let Ichika-san play some simple supporting roles, passerby with one or two lines, etc." Hayasaka gave her own advice, "Just take it one step at a time, no one can reach the peak in one step."
"I think this gift isn't too good."
A film featuring Ichika as the protagonist and a film featuring Ichika as a supporting character or pedestrian are two different concepts.
However, Ren thought otherwise.
"There's nothing we can do about it." Hayasaka suggested with a smile, "Of course, if you think this gift isn't good, you can invest in Ichika-san and use it as a gift later."
"How to do that?"
Ren didn't mind changing his mind if the proposal was good.
Who lets the previous gift negatively impact Ichika?
"It means you pay to help Ichika-san find roles." Hayasaka explained gently, "You know, some crews are very short of money. If Kamikawa-kun is willing to pay for these crews, they won't mind giving Ichika-san some supporting roles."
"In other words, bringing capital into the group."
"This way, it can not only train Ichika-san's acting skills, but it can also satisfy her desire to be an actress."
"When the time comes and Ichika-san's acting skills mature, it's not too late for you to pay for making a movie."
"How much does it cost?"
Ren was very touched by her proposal.
"It depends on how much money Kamikawa-kun can contribute?" Hayasaka clapped her hands, "Moreover, bringing money into the group is very expensive, especially since Ichika-san is still a newcomer."
"Use this first. The password is six zeros."
Ren pushed back the bank card he gave her.
"How much is in it?"
After taking the bank card, Hayasaka asked casually.
"A hundred billion." Ren answered honestly, "Not enough, I can add more."
"Really?"
Hayasaka quietly placed the bank card on the table, her face no longer as calm as before.
"Really." Ren said firmly, "You can check it."
"Hayasaka, why are you discussing this with Kamikawa-kun?" Kaguya asked her in a low voice.
Because she didn't understand this aspect, she couldn't understand Hayasaka's purpose in doing this.
"Of course, to make money for the agency. Someone is willing to pay our agency to train actresses. There's no reason to refuse such a thing, right?"
With this thought, she had just talked to Ren.
"It's not good to make money from Kamikawa-kun, right?" Kaguya objected slightly.
"You're not making money from him, you're making money from someone else." Hayasaka sighed and continued, "He's donating his money, and our company is donating its efforts."
