Speaking of which, since the Red Fish Yard was built, it has been managed by a hosting company, and Naoki Nagayama has actually only been here a few times.
So much thought was put into the original design, but the real beauty inside is seen more by the housekeeper who cleans the house and the workers who take care of the yard.
Just like a billionaire who comes back several times a month from a business trip, others may be admiring the mansion with sea view, pet golden retriever, and exquisite garden. Even the beautiful flowers and beautiful family members may be...
...
Nagayama Naoki and Akina took the Shinkansen for more than two hours, and then took a taxi to Hongyuyuan.
When I came here again, although the weather was very cold, the floor heating in the main house had been turned on, and the whole room was warm.
After delivering the luggage and the room to the hosting company, Mrs. Nonaka Mari, who came with her, went back to the room to rest. Akina, on the other hand, was full of energy and took Naoki Nagayama to walk around the courtyard...
"I have never seen a pregnant woman be so energetic~ You are carrying a heavy load!" Nagayama Naoki complained to Akina, "Look at Nonaka-san, after riding in the car for several hours, she went to rest after coming here...
..."
"I was used to riding in cars when I was touring everywhere, and we are young people!"
Akina didn't care what others did. Anyway, she didn't feel tired at all. She took her husband's arm and walked out.
"Let's go, let's go see if there are any changes in the Red Fish Yard..."
"What changes can be made..."
As he said this, Naoki Nagayama was still pulled out of the house by Akina.
The cold air hits the face, making people wake up suddenly, and the red fish yard in winter also comes into view.
The three main houses have experienced the rotation of the four seasons, and have completely lost the atmosphere when they were first built. The red beams and white walls are still bright, but they have an added meaning that has accumulated over time.
Some fallen leaves have accumulated on the tiles on the roof, and moss can be seen faintly in the gaps. Even the gilt "Auspicious Auspicious Royal Free" on the plaque on the front has turned into dark gold, giving it a more calm feeling.
The stream flowing down from the low hill flows around the main house, along the scenic waterside pavilion, and merges into the mirror-like pool in front~
In the open courtyard in front, even in the cold winter, the evergreen green plants and rockery rocks are scattered in perfect order, forming an excellent landscape. It only lacks the sound of some insects and is as quiet as a frozen oil painting.
The two of them walked around the courtyard along the scenic path, stopping and watching for more than ten minutes, and then went to climb the short mountain behind...
The narrow stone path in the bamboo forest and a row of red torii gates continue to the small temple on the top of the mountain.
This small temple seems to have been carefully taken care of by the caregivers. They may even use this temple as a place of worship. You can vaguely smell the scent of incense.
The statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva inside is clean, with hands clasped and looking compassionately at the believers who come to worship.
Nagayama Naoki was not a believer, but he just watched Akina put a stack of Shotoku Taishi into the merit box, rang the bell, then closed his eyes and prayed devoutly, and it took a while before he opened his eyes.
Then it was like I had put down some burden, and I felt relaxed again~
While walking down the mountain, Nagayama Naoki said helplessly: "Akina-chan...you know that all the money will be taken away by the caregiver, right..."
"No, I offered it to the Bodhisattva!" Akina said seriously, "As long as the thoughts attached to it are there, the rest is just waste paper..."
"Each piece of waste paper is worth 10,000 yen~"
"..." Akina rolled her eyes at her husband, "This is the fulfillment of a previous wish!"
"before?"
"I made a wish when I came to Hongyuyuan before~"
"What did Akina wish for before? What did she wish for this time?" Nagayama Naoki asked curiously.
"I won't tell you!"
Turning her head slightly to look at Nagayama Naoki, Akina's cheeks bulged slightly, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously raised. Her entire face expressed her current mood - she was happy~
Although I am five months pregnant, the way down the mountain seems agile and brisk~
........
Before Nagayama Naoki and the others arrived, the Red Fish Yard had been idle.
This time it was used as a base for the Japan Film Academy Association jury, which no one else had thought of. The company that hosted the courtyard also hurriedly cleaned it up, and then hired housekeepers and chefs to make the Red Fish House ready.
preparation work.
With the arrival of the Yongshan couple, gradually the judges of this year also arrived one by one.
"Director Nagayama, long time no see!" "Ah... Director Yamashita... I'm going to have to work hard for everyone this time!" "Where is it..."
"Director Oshima, welcome here~" "Director Yongshan, the scenery here is nice... I heard it's your villa?" "Hahaha, it's just a vacation home..."
"Director Yanjing..." "This place is somewhat similar to the style of Phoenix Garden~" "It was built in that style..."
As judges, naturally they cannot all be directors, but also well-known producers, film critics, and senior actors in the neon film industry...
With the arrival of these people, the originally deserted Red Fish Yard became lively.
Of course, the unique Red Fish Theater has naturally aroused praise from people from all walks of life... Some of them are really envious. After all, movies make money, but the money is all divided by the producers, even well-known directors.
Not many people can spend so much money to buy a garden.
Everyone usually knows that Naoki Nagayama is a rich man. After all, he is both a producer and a director. Even though the fees for Neon actors are not high, he pockets almost all the money earned from each movie.
But I really had no idea how rich he was...until I saw this private courtyard.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! So everyone looked at Akina Nakamori who came out to greet everyone with Nagayama Naoki, and is now busy helping everyone settle in, and everyone was filled with emotion...
Although Akina Nakamori, a young idol, is very beautiful, there are many people who are prettier than her, but she is the one who got married to Naoki Nagayama... What a big deal!
People like them who already have a certain status and reputation in the entertainment industry will not marry an artist easily. They must find a well-matched wife.
In this way, in the upper class society, you will not lose your status, and you will have a good wife to help you deal with various relationships, and help your career to a higher level...
If you become a politician or the son-in-law of a chaebol, you can even rise to the top in one step...
Naoki Nagayama was still too young and had not resisted the temptation of beauty. He actually got married and had children early...
Otherwise, there is a girl of the right age in the house of my aunts and uncles, who has a good family background, is beautiful, and can run a household. I can definitely introduce her to him!
However, when Akina Nakamori came over with a big belly and thanked everyone for taking care of her husband, everyone still responded politely. This was because she was Naoki Nagayama's wife and was about to give birth to Naoki Nagayama's blood!
A wife is valued based on her husband... A mother is valued based on her son...
At this time, they were shocked to realize that Naoki Nagayama no longer needed a wife to enhance his class. He himself was one of the top people in the neon social pyramid!
So when he marries a wife, as long as the wife is someone he likes...
In the evening, the chef's delicacies were ready, and Naoki Nagayama also sat at the dining table with everyone. As the chairman of the jury, he raised his glass:
"Mina-san, due to health reasons, Akina will not eat with us. In the next half month, I hope that everyone can work together to select this year's Film Academy Awards!"
"Of course!" "Let's do it together!" "Have fun watching the movie!" "..."
After everyone agreed, they began to enjoy the delicious food. Naoki Nagayama did not continue to toast or anything, but instead discussed with the judges this year's interesting movies and possible future movie trends...
"I think this year's "Ran" directed by Akira Kurosawa is very good..."
Over drinks and meals, we discussed the jury for this year’s Academy Awards until late into the night.
.......
As a director, Naoki Nagayama has temporarily left, but the work of Shuyou Group has not stopped, nor has the entire entertainment industry.
In the cold wind, the popularity of "The Legend of Hayato" is getting higher and higher. Especially on the first weekend after the new year, the audience who went to see this movie sold out all the tickets in the cinema!
In important cities such as Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Nagoya, and Sapporo, Hokkaido, the most popular movie at this stage is undoubtedly "The Legend of Hayato" produced by Shuyu Pictures. It has even reached the point where you can't chat without watching this movie.
At this time, Nagayama Kumahara, who came to Kobe, was meeting with other middle and high-level executives of the Yamaguchi-gumi, hoping to radiate the influence of the Nagayama-gumi from Shizuoka to the Kinki area...
"Isn't the East Asia Club in Tokyo already in decline? Kumahara-san, why don't you go to Tokyo?" the leader of the Haoyu Club said while drinking, "The Kinki area is in chaos now... Ichiwa Club
Those guys are always at war!"
"Haven't you settled down recently?" Yongshan Xiongyuan said unexpectedly.
"How is it possible? Unless Hiro Yamamoto of the First Peace Conference dies and the First Peace Conference is disbanded...this 'Yamaichi Resistance' will never end!"
Another chapter leader who was drinking together was already a little drunk and said with a smile,
"In fact, now, everyone is tacitly agreeing not to end this struggle... In fact, everyone does not want to have another person in charge..."
In fact, the fourth generation of the Yamaguchi-gumi has been dead for a year. There are not many direct organizations like the Akyoukai and Goyoukai who really want to help him avenge him!
Because everyone has discovered that as long as Masahisa Takenaka is not avenged, the next generation of group leaders will not be able to take the position legitimately... In other words, now the subordinate organizations of the Yamaguchi group can go their own way and make money each!
No matter which side Shan Yi wins in the fight, it will be difficult for these powerful team leaders! They are all the bosses of the club, who really wants to have another guy above them!
"I see...."
Nagayama Kumahara nodded. He already understood the current situation in Kobe. In fact, except for Kobe, the headquarters of the Yamaguchi-gumi, which is still fighting, there is almost no conflict between the Yamaguchi-gumi's rudders in other cities.
Originally, everyone joined the Yakuza just to make money, but for tens of thousands of dollars, they want me to work hard?!
"Over in Tokyo, the Inagawa Club is too strong... our Nagayama group can't get in!"
Nagayama Kumahara explained that it was actually his father who specifically told him that Tokyo was the retreat for the Nagayama family. Even if Nagayama Kumahara wanted to develop in the Yakuza, he could not go there.
"Hahaha, could it be your father Hayato Nagayama? The enemies he left behind when he was young are still there!" One Wakatou laughed, causing others present to also laugh.
"Yes...when Nagayama Hayato was young, he offended everyone in Tokyo!"
"Otherwise, why would I go back to my hometown, haha~" "Speaking of which, making a big fuss in Tokyo is indeed very majestic!"
"I don't know if one versus ten is true. Hey, Team Leader Xiong Yuan, was your father really that brave when he was young?!"
"..."
Nagayama Kumahara drank the wine in the glass in one sip... silently complaining in his heart...
"Father, even in my hometown, you can still steal the limelight from me in Kobe... "The Legend of Hayato"..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Let Naoki make a movie for me in the future, and it will be called "The Legend of Xiong Yuan"!!!"
He knew that "The Legend of Hayato" was very popular among the Yakuza, but he didn't expect that "The Legend of Hayato" would be so influential. Even all the team leaders had read it...
Raising his head, Yongshan Xiongyuan showed a generous smile:
"Of course, my father is famous for his bravery... Look at my body, I have inherited his physique!"
As he spoke, Nagayama Kumahara flexed his biceps... and laughed with everyone.
When the team leaders looked at his muscular body, they couldn't help but nod... He must be a good fighter!
After drinking a few more glasses of wine, Nagayama Kumahara secretly continued to negotiate with several group leaders. Even if he did not work hard to fight against the First Peace Conference, the small city in the Kinki area close to Shizuoka could seize the territory of the First Peace Conference.
Come here!
"We, the Yongshan Group, will recruit people, you will speak out, and then we will seize the territory. We will add two to one and make five, and we will divide it equally!"
"This is okay..." "You really don't need to put in any effort?"
"Of course you have to contribute. When the First Peace Society counterattacks, you must be on the same front as me!"
"Hahaha, that's good~"
The group of people continued to drink happily. The other team leaders wanted a free territory, but Nagayama Bear's principle was to open an opening to expand to the Kinki area...
Which side wins? It depends on the future!
In addition, back to "The Legend of Hayato"... it is also very popular among Yakuza elements, so there are many bad guys with immature ideas who have ambitions to copy Hayato Nagayama's path to success.
.
Some people head directly to big cities, hoping to climb up from the bottom. Some people directly gather people and collect protection fees on the streets... but they are attacked by the police and the local Yakuza!
Some people contact the police privately and want to become informants... This makes the police chiefs dumbfounded...
There are also some teenagers who like cosplay. I don’t know what’s going on recently. They like to wear half-old kimonos. When they meet their friends on the street, they say a few half-English and half-Japanese names... "Yaga Aibo"
~Saxi ignores it!”
Fortunately, school is still on vacation, otherwise these guys would definitely be kicked out of the academy!
The box office of "Hayato: New World" in its first week has exceeded 700 million... almost catching up with the box office of other movies throughout the year!
According to industry estimates, the final box office of this movie will definitely reach more than 3 billion, and if optimistically, it can reach 4 billion... If it wins the grand prize like "Summer of Kikujiro" and is released abroad, the global box office may be even higher.
high.....
But... it seems unlikely that I will win the prize...
The Japan Film Academy Awards was held last year, and the chairman of the jury this year is Naoki Nagayama, who will definitely not choose his own film!
