1033, you still have to work overtime even if you have a break! Naoki-san is really working hard!
...
After the first few episodes of the TV series were edited, Nagayama Naoki gave the crew a rare holiday to let everyone have a good rest.
And he himself originally wanted to have a good rest at home, take a nap, etc.
But it only takes two weeks to form a habit, and the damn biological clock still wakes people up early...
"Naoki Sanzao~"
Nonaka Mori always gets up earlier than Nagayama Naoki and the others. Every time they go downstairs after washing up, they can see that breakfast is almost ready~
"Mrs. Nonaka, morning~"
After saying hello, Naoki Nagayama walked to the courtyard, bathing in the warm sunshine on his face and breathing in the fresh air. He felt refreshed and his body full of vitality.
After playing with the wagging tail of Nyaotaro for a while, and by the way, I petted Nyaotaro who was lying on the porch. I felt that my routine tasks in the morning had been completed. Then when I walked into the living room, I saw Akina had walked down and sat down.
The person at the dining table waved to me~
This should be a happy daily life~
"Has Naoki-san been at home all day today?"
Akina asked during breakfast,
"No arrangements?"
"Probably, I don't have any special arrangements, I just plan to rest..." Nagayama Naoki shook his head, "Does Akina have any arrangements?"
"Draw drawings, take a walk, watch TV..."
When Akina talked about her daily life during the pregnancy period, she felt like Nyaotarou, a little too lazy.
There was already a report on "Tokyo Love Story" in the morning newspaper. The film and television reporters were full of praise for this TV series. They all said that the characters were well chosen and the plot was very compact. They were looking forward to the future plots, etc.
Akina turned her head and glanced at the report:
"Naoki-san, everyone is very optimistic about it~"
"This cost money!"
Naoki Nagayama shook his head. Publicity is very difficult. There are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people. No matter how good something is, some people will not like it.
If you don't spend any money, how can the newspapers be full of praise...
"..."
Akina stopped talking and quickly stuffed breakfast into her mouth... She also knew how she got so popular in the past few years.
After eating breakfast, Akina began to take a walk in the yard, and then went to her design workshop. On the one hand, she had to draw some design drafts for clothing, and on the other hand, she was also making small clothes for the baby.
Naoki Nagayama, here, ran directly into the study after relaxing for a while, and began to perfect the script of "Across the World" that he recalled before...
"The important thing is, who will play the role? Leslie Cheung, Chow Yun-fat, Chung Chu-hong...it's hard to find replacements in Neon!"
"Um...are you inviting me to come over and perform?"
.......
I originally thought that the day would be spent so leisurely, but who knew that I would receive a call from Nishi Rumi to make a dinner date in the morning...
So at a Japanese restaurant in Shinjuku District, Nagayama Naoki met Sugiura Oyasu and Nishi Rumi:
"Da Taisang, Xirumi-sang~"
"Naoki-san is here~"
Sugiura Otai smiled and stood up from the tatami to greet him, then pulled him to sit down at the small table.
"It's rare that I have time today!"
"Yeah, the TV series just happened to be airing, so I'm going to give everyone a little break."
Naoki Nagayama explained,
"Nishirumi-san just happened to call and make an appointment for dinner~"
"Haha, Nishi Rumi has now become Naoki-san's exclusive contact person~" Otasu Sugiura joked, "Everyone on the TV station knows about it!"
Nishirumi, who was helping pour tea on the other side, rolled her eyes:
"It's all Da Taisang who is talking nonsense!"
"Ah hahaha, we were the first to know each other... I remember when I first arrived at Fuji TV, it was Nishiru Misou who led the way~"
"This is fate~"
"..."
Originally, this gathering did not have much purpose, it was just to rekindle old friendships. The three of them chatted with no sense of distance at all and were very relaxed.
When talking about the broadcast status of "Tokyo Love Story", Sugiura Oyasu took out the ratings data from his bag and handed it to Naoki Nagayama to see.
"The ratings of the first episode of "Tokyo Love Story" reached 32%, and it is expected to be even higher in the future..."
"Ah, 32%...very good~"
Nagayama Naoki nodded. This is already the ratings of a popular variety show. When the TV series plays important plots, the ratings will definitely be higher, maybe around 50%...almost reaching the red level.
The standard of Baigehui~
"Shuyou's TV series are now synonymous with high quality..."
Nishirumi interjected,
"Coupled with the previous TV series, they all have the intention of booking the entire prime time show..."
"Haha, let's call it a special show for tree friends from now on..." Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "The prime time... we will handle it!"
Xi Rumei is also smiling:
"It's true that Naoki-san became famous! There is already a special name for the TV series about Tree Friends, called Yuejiu Drama..."
Originally, the prime time slot could be variety shows, news, or other programs, but since Tree Friends took over the prime time slot, it has almost become a symbol, and they are all TV series!
When people think of Fuji TV's 9 o'clock prime time slot, they first associate it with the TV series "Shuyou". The title "Yuejiu Drama" has been accepted by more and more people.
Just when the three of them were chatting happily, the door of the private room opened and a fat young man with a smile on his face walked in.
"Naoki-san!"
"Qiu Yuan-san, Saxi ignores~"
Nagayama Naoki smiled and said hello, today is the Nishirumi bureau, nominally under the banner of the last gathering in the production bureau office.
Yasushi Akimoto is leaving for TBS. Only half of the original office staff are left, and the team will be disbanded~
"How was it? Where did the conversation go?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Akimoto Yasushi was not restrained at all and started talking as soon as he sat down.
"Let's talk about the ratings of the new TV series..."
Sugiura Otai chatted and asked the waiter to start serving the dishes. Everyone was already here, and the wine party officially started.
"Naoki-san's "Tokyo Love Story"... is such a good work!" Yasushi Akimoto complimented with a smile, "The novel is equally wonderful..."
"Thank you for the compliment~"
Nagayama Naoki raised his glass to express his gratitude, and then said,
"I heard that Akimoto-san has gone to TBS?"
"Hi..." Yasushi Akimoto nodded, "Fuji TV does not support my new program, but I think this program will definitely cause a sensation!"
As he said that, he took out the activity planning plan... "Fighting! People!"
"Naoki-san, let's take a look too!"
"Haha~ Then I'm not welcome~"
Naoki Nagayama did not refuse. This program is based on the game "Of course" and he had some opinions in the early days.
"Running Man" definitely has the potential to become a hit as a variety show, but Naoki Nagayama doesn't want to spend too much time on variety shows, and this kind of live outdoor competitive variety show is also very troublesome to shoot, so it doesn't matter if it is left to Akimoto Yasushi.
.
At the end, he can still see the early neon version of Running Man!
"Hmm~"
Nagayama Naoki flipped through the planning book. He had had some exchanges with Akimoto Yasushi before, so he was quite familiar with the games and other things in the planning book, and there were no problems with the process.
"Akimoto-san, this kind of shooting requires more advanced cameras and portable radio equipment... After all, if you want to shoot scenes and people in motion, it will be very troublesome to carry a camera with a lot of cords."
"In this case, I will apply to go to the United States to purchase the latest mobile cameras...and sports microphones..."
Yasushi Akimoto has also considered this, but because the purchase amount is quite large, Fuji TV does not support it.
"Haha, there is also the choice of guests... not all of them have to be the most popular idols at the moment, the main thing is to be topical and mysterious..."
Naoki Nagayama said,
"For example, people like Hiromi Go, Ken Takakura..."
"Ahem~"
Hearing this, Akimoto Yasu, who had just picked up a piece of sashimi, coughed:
"Naoki-san! It's very difficult for these people to find schedules...it will be about the same after the show becomes popular!"
"Haha, it's just a suggestion~"
"Speaking of which, if Naoki-san participates..."
"Absolutely impossible!"
"...It's so heartless~"
The two discussed the program for a while, and then stopped. After all, they were not here for discussion today.
"Da Tai-san, Nishiro Mei-san, come and have a drink!"
"Haha, okay~" "One cup is enough!" "..."
.......
In the afternoon, Nagayama Naoki, who smelled of alcohol, did not return to Yamazakura-in.
Akina was pregnant, and for some reason she was a little sensitive to the smell of alcohol at this stage. He thought it would be better to wait until the smell of alcohol dissipated before going back.
He didn’t want to go for tea, so after thinking about it for a while, Nagayama Naoki actually chose to come to the Tree Friends Building!
After all, the office here is very spacious and equipped with computers...
"Naoki-san?"
Xing Jiahua at the front desk was very surprised.
"Why are you here today?"
"Come to the editing room and take a look..."
Naoki Nagayama can't be said to be here to sober up.
"It's really hard work..." Xing Jiahua sighed, "Naoki-san must have set an example, otherwise Komori-san and Kijima-san wouldn't have come to work overtime today!"
"?"
Nagayama Naoki was a little surprised,
"Are they two here to work overtime?"
"Hi, I went to the editing room this morning..."
"..."
Nagayama Naoki walked towards the editing room with a puzzled face. Recently, Masataka Komori and Kyū Kijima have been fighting fiercely for the filming rights of "Tiger of Ginza". Now the two of them are actually working overtime in the editing room together?
!
Generally speaking, if a child suddenly becomes abnormally quiet, it must be holding back a big move!
"The two of them aren't going to have a fight in the editing room, are they?"
False competition is to amplify one's own advantages, denigrate the opponent's disadvantages, and show that one is the most worthy candidate in front of the boss;
The real competition is to take your opponent to an alley and beat him to death, and then tell your boss that you only have one candidate left!
When he walked outside the editing room, Naoki Nagayama softened his footsteps, put his ear close to the door, and quietly listened to the movement inside... It was quiet!
"Ah Bai! They won't fall down together!"
Nagayama Naoki screamed in his heart and suddenly opened the door!
In the spacious editing room, Komori Masataka and Kijima Kyor each had an editing machine and were concentrating on editing a reel of film material.
The two of them were so focused that they even took a few breaths to react after Naoki Nagayama opened the door.
"Naoki-san? Why are you here?!" X2
"Ah..." Nagayama Naoki looked at the two people who were unharmed and breathed a sigh of relief, "I just stopped by to take a look. What are you two doing?"
"Forehead...."
Komori Masataka and Kijima Kyor looked at each other, and it was Komori Masataka who explained,
"Kijima and I are competing on our editing skills. We made two copies of some of the original materials of "Tokyo Love Story" and made an appointment to compete today."
Kijima Kyūya said:
"Because previous competitions in other aspects failed to determine the winner, we agreed this time that whoever edits well within three hours will get the right to shoot "Tiger of Ginza"!"
"..."
Listening to this extremely childish reason, Naoki Nagayama wiped his face.
"You two...I won't say anything else, but once the editing is done, how do you judge the effect of the editing? What if one party doesn't admit it?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "This..."
Komori Masataka and Kijima Kyor looked at each other again, and instantly understood their thoughts, and then suddenly realized that the other party would definitely not respect martial ethics!!!
The two of them turned their heads at the same time and snorted in their hearts... Huh! He is indeed a powerful enemy! He is even so thick-skinned!
"Isn't this Naoki-san?!"
Komori Masataka immediately thought of,
"Naoki-san can make the decision!"
"I won't do it!"
Nagayama Naoki shook his head, walked over and gave two people a knife on their heads.
"Let the two of you show your connections and advantages from the aspects of casting, attracting investment, gathering manpower, etc. In fact, it is all for the best effect!"
"You must know that the script of "Tiger of Ginza" has many big scenes...and as Shuyou Group becomes more regular, it is impossible for the company to invest too many resources in a movie!"
Shuyou's current policy of producing a movie means that although it will invest a certain amount of money itself, it will also need to attract other producers from the market to invest.
Who said they are not Naoki Nagayama or Shuichi Itou?! Only they can use the company's money, because it contains their own money, and they are the owners of Shuyou!
Komori Masataka and Kijima Kyon both nodded to express their understanding.
"But Naoki-san... We have found many investors and found many role candidates before, but we haven't decided the winner yet... Otomo-san, Shuichi-san and Naoki-san
It seems like they are not satisfied..."
Seeing the two people's incomprehensible expressions, Nagayama Naoki leaned gently against the window;
"This shows that you have not understood the considerations of the company's management..."
"What we want is not to determine which of you two is better, but how to make "Tiger of Ginza" more successful!"
"That's all I can point you to. You can think about it slowly next!"
"..."
After saying his pretentious words, Naoki Nagayama walked away coolly, leaving behind two guys who looked confused.
In fact, Naoki Nagayama doesn't care who directs it. If he needs resources, he can naturally afford them... But now that the company is moving in the normal direction, making a movie should be about everyone working together to make the movie
more successful.
In fact, the resources of both of them are insufficient. Only who can realize that teamwork can make the movie more successful. That person is the one who thinks about the movie wholeheartedly and can truly be the person in charge.
Rather than a simple director role~
.......
After Naoki Nagayama left, silence remained in the editing room.
After a long time, Kijima Xu spoke:
"Masataka, Naoki-san, do you mean that we need to think about how to make the movie a big hit?"
"Well, it should be how to make a successful commercial film so that the film can earn more box office!"
"What should be done?"
"That is to say, the movie must be beautiful, but the cost must be controlled, the actors and other investments must be cost-effective, and the more publicity, the better..."
"But artistry must also be ensured. Grand prizes and other awards are also needed, right? If you win a prize, the popularity will be high and the reputation will be high..."
"Um!"
"...This is something that one person can't do, right?"
"Well, a producer is responsible for the effects, and a director is responsible for the shooting..."
"Huh? Aren't there just two of us?!"
"...."
The two looked at each other again, and Kijima Xu said slowly:
"Why do I feel that the two of us were fooled by the executives?!"
"...."
Komori Masataka didn't know how to reply for a moment...
