My Teammate’S Blind Date Is Always Ogling Me. Chapter 48
byChapter 48 Tower
At 18:05, Ms. Nikaido and her assistant came to Kohakugawa’s lounge, and there were several bodyguards standing at the door.
“Give me the mobile phone.” Ms. Nikaido quickly checked and nodded to the assistant, who then wrapped the Kohaku River tightly with sunglasses, a hat, a mask and a scarf.
“I’ll tell you when I get to the office. Leave your phone with me first.” She directed the bodyguard at the door, “Go to the underground parking lot.”
Although Kohaku Chuanliu was confused, he also realized that the situation might be a bit serious, so he followed her obediently.
At 18:08, the group took the elevator to the parking lot on the second floor of the TV station.
Entertainment reporters are the best among people. They were not fooled by Ms. Nikaido’s nanny car parked in front of the TV station. Instead, they had already squatted in the underground parking lot.At this moment, as soon as the elevator door opened, they were blocked. The microphone kept pushing and the camera kept flashing.
“Mr. Ambergawa! What do you think about the Internet…”
“…during the World Cup…”
“…Do you have anything to explain?…”
The shouts were so loud that Amber River could barely hear what they were saying.
The six bodyguards had already skillfully separated the surging crowd from the Amber River, and used their bodies and arms to block a path leading to the nanny’s car.
Ms. Nikaido and her assistant also blocked the Kohaku River one after another.Ms. Nikaido grabbed Kohakugawa’s wrist with one hand, and with the other hand, she blocked the lens stretched out in front of him without any doubt.
In the midst of the difficulty, the group of people squirmed for more than ten meters without saying a word, until the bodyguard suddenly opened the car door and pushed Kohaku Gawa in first, followed by Ms. Nikaidou and her assistant.
The car door slammed shut.
Reluctant reporters were still banging on the bulletproof car windows, but the shouts had been completely cut off.
The driver stepped on the accelerator, and the car fell into an eerie silence.
“Give me your hand and cell phone.” Kohaku Chuanliu said tentatively, “I’ll tell my friend that I won’t have dinner with him tonight.”
“Sakuhaa-kun, is that right?” Ms. Nikaido turned out to be very calm, with not even a hint of anger on her face. “You don’t need to tell him, I think he won’t care.”
At 18:06, Shugo Akira rushed into the interview booth and stopped the crazy reporters.
“I’m sorry, we won’t be doing interviews today.” He stood in front of Sakuzao and Gong Yu.
The reporters did not spare him:
“Light and Dark Player, as the captain, do you know about this?”
“How do the Black Wolves plan to deal with this?”
Akira Shugo was sweating profusely, and with the help of the staff, he took the two people away from the interview booth with difficulty.
Sakuza Sagechen returned to the lounge with a sullen face and said nothing. He saw that there were already a circle of people in black suits sitting in the lounge, and their faces were not very good-looking.Kuroo Tetsurou was actually there, but he was standing in the corner. Based on this, Sakuzaaki had already made a rough judgment on the departments and ranks of these people.
“What does it have to do with them?” Gong Yoo yelled angrily, “Even if it is exposed, what does it have to do with them? They are really full and have nothing to do!”
“Yu!” Akira Shugo quickly stopped him, winked at him, and said, “Yu, let’s go out first.”
After saying that, he ignored Gong Yu’s turning back three times, forcibly holding him under his arm and dragging him away, leaving only Sakuza Shengchen alone with a room full of black suits.
18:10, Yoyogi National Arena, in a conference room that was temporarily converted from the lounge.
“Please take a seat, contestant Sakuhaya.”
A long table was temporarily moved into the conference room, and the person sitting on the far left casually pointed to Sakuza Seomien to the seat in the middle opposite them.
Like an interrogation.
Sakuza Sage was sullen and silent, pulled out a chair and sat down across from them.
“I am the general manager of MSBY Black Wolf Club, remember me, player Sakuhaya?” the man said, “These are the general managers of the operations department and the general heads of the business development department; these are the executive directors of the Volleyball Association, the director of public relations and publicity, and the heads of the national team affairs bureau.”
“Do I need so many people to handle my affairs?” Sakuza Shengchen asked with a frown.
“Things are worse than you think, and much worse.” The public relations director sighed, “I know you are very troubled now, but you are also wrong. Why didn’t you inform us of such a big thing in advance, player Sakuhaya?”
“What is it, my love affair?” Sakuza Seomi asked calmly, “I don’t remember that there is a rule that players’ private lives must be reported to the Volleyball Association, the national team and the club.”
“I understand how you feel your private life is offended now, but let me remind you that you have been a public figure from the beginning – from the time you were sixteen years old and attended the Spring High School for the first time – and the other one, needless to say, is even more so. Public figures enjoy the admiration, flowers, and applause of the audience, and the audience also has the right to put everything about you under the spotlight at any time. This is why we need our public relations department.”
Sakuzao Holy Minister looked at him coldly, noncommittal.
“In any case, we are sitting here to work with you to resolve the crisis caused by this matter. If you still think this is just a purely personal incident, then let me tell you why it is not.”
The public relations director winked at Kuroo Tetsurou, who was forced to work overtime on weekends and quickly turned on the projector they brought and respectfully handed him the laser pointer.
The public relations minister pointed to the data chart in the PPT:
“So far, only three hours have passed since the incident was exposed, and public opinion has already exploded. Negative and controversial comments account for 93% of all discussions. They have evolved from simply exposing the relationship between a national actor and a national team player to criticisms with moral judgments such as dating at public expense, flirting with the World Cup, and tarnishing sports competitions. To put it more generally, you have been “inflamed.””
Sakuzao Holy Minister frowned imperceptibly.
“The collective anger is the trickiest part.Even if we trust your professional abilities and attitude, external interpretations will make the connections they long to see.In the World Cup semi-finals, netizens also picked up a small mistake you made in the fourth game and interpreted it juxtaposed with the people in the commentary box.The most upvoted comment said that you were distracted because he was looking at you – even though we all know that you can’t see the commentary box on the court, but who cares what the truth is?”
“There are many such interpretations. In order to prevent your future games from being affected, we have unanimously decided not to show them to you yet.In short, once this toxic narrative logic is formed, no matter what the facts are, it will affect the public’s trust in every future game you play.”The PR Minister put down the laser pointer and folded his hands on the table. “The crisis of trust is just one part of this crisis.”
“Three of your personal endorsement brand and team core partners have sent us informal letters of inquiry.When signing commercial contracts, we are required to maintain a positive public image and avoid embroiling the brand in major controversies.Once we breach the contract, we will have to pay huge liquidated damages, as well as direct and indirect economic losses to the brand.”said the club general manager.
Sakuzao Holy Minister: “…”

In the lounge next door, Akira Shugo reported a number, and the audience was silent for three seconds.
“Just pay!If you terminate the contract, terminate the contract!”Gong Yoo slapped the table and stood up, “What a tasteless brand!”
Bokuto Kotaro: “That’s right!This money will be treated as our betrothal gift to Liuliu!”
“Don’t worry!Grinding will not disinvest!” Hinata Xiangyang said loudly.
“…Calm down.”Ming Anxiu Wu held his forehead and said, dumbfounded, “This money can’t reach Mr. Hu Hechuan’s hands, so what kind of gift is it?And he has more endorsements and more compensation.”
The three people stopped talking.

“This is a crisis of your personal commercial value and your team’s financial crisis, but also a crisis within the community.The negative emotions of netizens will spread to the entire volleyball world, and even the entire sports competition world.”The PR Minister paused and continued, “Just like a high tower, once the first piece of glass falls, one piece, one piece, and then one piece will fall, and eventually the entire tower will collapse.Now you can understand and believe that this is not just a private life, right?”
Sakuzao Holy Minister remained silent and nodded.
“I’m glad we finally reached an agreement, Sakuhaya.He pushed over a form, “In order to resolve the incident more properly, first of all, we still need to confirm some basic facts and your attitude.””
Sakuza Seomi lowered his head and looked at the “Internal Fact Confirmation and Player Intention Survey” in front of him.

Sakuza Seomiji was about to check the box, but after reading all the survey questions, he paused.
His fingertips were too hard and the pen tip stayed on the paper for a long time, rendering the black ink into an ugly spot.
Saint Sakuza suppressed the anger in his heart and said to them calmly:
“I want to see the Kohaku River.”
“Sakuzao Holy Minister!What time is it now!”The executive director who had been silent and sitting in the middle slapped the table and said sternly, “Correct your attitude and work well together!Next year is the Tokyo Olympics, do you still want to…”
“I want to see the Amber River first.Sakuza Seomi’s expression was calm and his tone was cold, “I suggest you also meet with his agent, Ms. Nikaidou Yuko. She must have a whole room of public relations teams working on solving this matter. She may not be more experienced and effective than you.””
“you!…”
“At least, you should ensure that your external messages are consistent with them, right?”Sakuzao Holy Minister said mockingly.
“We don’t have to worry about what entertainment agencies do!…”
“What Sakuzaa said makes sense.”In the corner, Kuroo Tetsuro suddenly raised his hand.
A room full of his superiors turned to stare at him.
“I…I can be responsible for supervising Sakuhaa, go to Joy’s Entertainment with him, and connect with the person in charge of Mr. Kohakugawa’s side.”Kuroo Tetsuroxin said, brother, I have spent my entire career helping you.
“Both of us… in short, maybe… we can reach a more complete solution.”
“Besides, don’t you think there might be something more hidden?” Kuroo Tetsurou said.
