.......

Entering November in Tokyo, the pace of winter suddenly speeds up a lot.

The temperature has dropped a lot, and it's already a bit cold without wearing thicker clothes at this time.

A ray of sunshine shone into the room, and Naoki Nagayama opened his eyes again in the bedroom of Yamazakura. After stretching happily, another dull day began~

Oh, no, he is in trouble today!

While washing up, Nagayama Naoki was still recalling what Yoshimura Otomo said yesterday:

"Naoki-san, I'm going to sign a contract tomorrow! Don't forget it!"

The production contract for "Boys Over Flowers" was finally negotiated, with a high price of 30 million yuan for the script fee, and an additional 20 million yuan for the three songs. For the following episodes, the broadcast rights for each episode will be purchased at a price of 25 million yuan, and the rest will be divided separately.

Calculate.

At this price, this TV series can eventually earn more than 300 million in revenue.

After hearing this, Naoki Nagayama sighed: "Compared with movies, it's really too low. Is it really necessary to shoot it?"

Hearing this, Yoshimura Otomo wanted to throw the microphone on Nagayama Naoki's head. This was an achievement he had worked hard for half a month!

Do you know what I paid for that price?

"Naoki-san, do you know that most movies have less than 100 million box office?"

For a TV series that has not yet been filmed, Fuji TV's ability to pay such a high price is based on Shuyou Pictures' previous performance.

"Eh? Less than 100 million?"

Naoki Nagayama counted. The first part was 2 billion, the second was 2.6 billion, and the third was more than 4 billion. He has never experienced this stage of less than 100 million.

However, the fourth film "That Summer, Sea of ​​Tranquility" is currently only being released in art theaters, and the box office trend seems to be possible...

"Okay, okay, Otomo-san, I'll just leave you alone. It's really hard work!"

After a little comfort, I was told that the signing time is tomorrow at 3 pm, and this is the reason why Nagayama Naoki got up early today (no)!

After my morning run, I had a simple breakfast and patted the dog on the head:

"Ying Tailang, I have to go out for a while, please take good care of the house!"

Naoki Nagayama drove out and went out. He still had to go to the studio in the morning to understand the process in advance.

...

Among the youth groups in Tokyo, there is already a legend like "Quiet Love". Many girls like to drag their boyfriends to watch this movie when they go out together.

In a certain dormitory of Meiji University, a magazine cover of Naoki Nagayama was cut out and pasted on the back of the door. On the back of the door, the stickers spelled out a line of words - "Naoki Nagayama Support Team (Headquarters)"

)"

At this time, Akiko Tsukada in the dormitory said to another person lying on the bed:

"Hina-chan, did you hear that?"

Kono Yona responded lazily: "What's wrong? Is there any news coming out again? Which scumbag cheated again?"

"No~" Akiko Tsukada retorted, "It's about a love movie!"

"I've seen through love...love and all that!" Kono Hirana tossed and turned on the bed like a child, "Ever since I became Naoki-san's support group, other boys can no longer enter my heart!"

"Stop talking nonsense! Didn't you say that a senior was very gentle the day before yesterday?" Shoko Fukumoto, who had already gotten up, exposed Kono Hianna's lie, "You love-minded person!"

"Ah~~Ignore you!" Kono Hina covered her head with a pillow.

At this time Tsukada Akiko said again: "It has something to do with Naoki-san!"

?As if touching some key words, Kono Hirana turned over and sat up: "Is it related to Naoki-san? Is it a movie starring Naoki-san? Has Naoki-san finally made another work?!"

Since "The Gas Station Robbery Incident", Naoki Nagayama has not released any new works for a long time. He has not even posted posters or announcements. His idol has not shown up for a long time, and he has not contacted fan organizations... They This Naoki Nagayama support group is about to be disbanded~

"I heard that this movie was directed by Naoki Nagayama." Tsukada Akiko added, "But the starring role is not Naoki, but another actor..."

"Eh... it's the director..." Kono Hirana was helpless, "Why isn't it the starring role... I want to see Naoki's face!"

"Naoki-kun! Why don't you come out to act?

!”

Under the bed, Fukumoto Shoko had already packed up and was getting ready to go out: "There is a math class today, won't you go?"

"Eh?!

Get up now!"

"How about we watch this movie together after class is over?" Shoko Fukumoto asked, "You can bring your boyfriend~"

"Okay!" Tsukada Akiko quickly agreed, while Kono Hina showed a helpless expression. She was the only single person in this dormitory.

Fukumoto Shoko glanced at her: "I asked my boyfriend to call that senior too!"

"Hi! I have to go!

!”

...

On the fourth floor of Fuji TV, in the conference room of the First Production Department, Kazuki Takano signed a contract with Naoki Nagayama on behalf of Fuji TV's production bureau.

Naoki Nagayama is the president and legal representative of Shuyu Pictures, so he still needs to seal it.

"Naoki-san, in the following production process, Sugiura Oitai will be responsible for the coordination on behalf of Fuji TV."

Takano Ikki invited his confidants to join the crew and play the role of producer. Such a high-involvement TV series would be impossible without his own people to control it. Naoki Nagayama also expressed his understanding.

"Hi, no problem!" Nagayama Naoki readily agreed, "If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us."

There must be a dinner party after the signing is completed. Takano Kazuki, Sugiura Oyasu, Nishi Rumi and Yoshimura Otomo will be there, but it is still relatively early at this time. Takano Kazuki has many things to do as a minister, so Sugiura Oyasu and Sugiura Oyasu As a guest, Nishi Rumi entertains Nagayama Naoki and the others.

There was nothing else to do, so a few people started chatting. Nishirumi brought a cup of hot tea to everyone. Sugiura Oitai held it in his hand and looked at the two people sitting opposite:

"Otomo-san, Naoki-san, do you have any ideas about the casting of "Boys Over Flowers"?"

"As for casting... I want to look for the male lead at Johnny & Associates for the time being," Otomo Yoshimura said.

"Ha, of course, most of the young artists are in Johnny's. The Tahara Trio before and the Shibu Persimmon group recently seem to be very popular?"

Naoki Nagayama heard this and said quickly: "Actually, if you are a high school student, you still want to be younger. I originally thought of a youth team that I have worked with before."

"Ah, they are the three who collaborated in "Convenience Store Heist Story", right? They don't seem to be famous?"

"It's just because there is no chance...and their age is also very suitable."

Seeing Naoki Nagayama's thoughts, Otasu Sugiura didn't say much more. He had already agreed before that supporting roles could be added at will, but the casting of the main character still had to be decided by Shuyu Pictures.

"What about the heroine?" Nishi Rumi asked curiously, "Is she an artist from Shuyu Pictures? That Junko Into?"

"It's difficult to handle a heroine..." Nagayama Naoki frowned, "That kind of stubborn temperament that is as unyielding as a weed..."

"Because the heroine can be said to be the core of the drama, we have to be even more cautious."

The four of them chatted for a long time about the plot and casting of "Boys Over Flowers". The November night came quickly, and it was already dark before they knew it.

"Ah, is it already so late?" Otasu Sugiura realized that something was wrong. It was already 17 o'clock, "Naoki-san, Otomo-san, let's go eat!"

Located in the Fuji TV building in Kawadamachi, Shinjuku, there are many high-end restaurants nearby. The four of them chose a traditional Japanese restaurant and had a salmon dinner.

Needless to say, we had a lot of fun during this period. After a glass or two of yellow soup, we couldn't stop talking about interesting things in the entertainment industry.

"Hahaha, Naoki-san, let me tell you, there are actually a lot of gays in the entertainment industry!" Sugiura Oyasu squinted his eyes and said something that made people widen their eyes, "For example, the banned Mikawa Kenichi~

"

"Eh? Isn't it because of drug involvement?" Otomo Fangcun has never heard of it.

"Yes, it is said that I was caught going abroad to buy a man!" Otasu Sugiura said with certainty, making people believe it. "Also, that Takakura Ken..."

"Hey, Taisang is really drunk!"

Nishi Rumi quickly grabbed her team leader. This guy dared to say anything when he drank too much. Can Takakura Ken's current status be casually arranged?

"I'm not drunk! Hahaha, it's too early for me to get drunk!"

Otasu Sugiura drank another glass of wine and held on to Yoshimura Otomo, "Otomo-san, in fact, this kind of thing happens more often in the broker's circle, especially in the largest brokerage firm. It is said that Johnny's President Kitagawa...

..."

"well...."

Naoki Nagayama sighed next to him, recalling that when we first started talking, we were still chatting about gossip and tidbits in the entertainment industry...

However, after Sugiura Oyasu, who was overestimating his abilities, started to toast repeatedly, Yoshimura Otomo watched the show from the side. After getting drunk, Sugiura Oyasu for some reason began to reveal dirty information in the entertainment industry. It was impossible not to listen to it...

...

"I'm talking to Nishimi-san, you're almost done with the meal. Let's go and pay the bill." It was agreed that this meal would be a treat for the production bureau, and Nishimi-san was not drunk, so of course she didn't have to pay for it herself.

"Hi~" Nishi Rumi drank a lot, but she was still very conscious.

Sugiura Oyasu and Yoshimura Otomo were unsteady on their feet and needed help from Naoki Nagayama. Yoshimura Otomo knew the address and took a taxi directly at the door to take him back. There was also someone at home to take care of them.

Sugiura Oitai didn't know the address, and he was single. He went home drunk alone. It would be bad if something happened.
