In the afternoon, Naoki Nagayama came to the Tree Friends Building again.
As soon as I entered the office, I was hurried to the door by Fangcun Dayou:
"Naoki-san, the candidate for "Tiger of Ginza" is still undecided, okay?"
"Ah...this~"
Naoki Nagayama pressed his temples with a headache. During this period, two guys, Masataka Komori and Kyū Kijima, sent a batch of protagonist candidates almost every day, which made him feel helpless...
"After so many days of testing, I have actually decided on the roles of two people. Due to special reasons, Kijima-kun has a more reserved personality and is more suitable to focus on the pursuit of film art, so I plan to give him the role of director...
..."
"As for Masataka-kun, he is also very good at directing, and he is very harmonious in dealing with the entertainment industry. In addition, he is well-known enough, so he may be able to assist Shuichi-san in coordinating the work of the film division...so
This time I will serve as a producer."
In fact, Kijima Kyor took the technical route and was deeply involved in directing, while Komori Masataka was trained for a management position and became Itou Shuichi's trumpet and assistant.
Fangcun Dayou didn't say much after hearing this. As outstanding employees of the second echelon of Shuyou, they should indeed be trained in the direction they are suitable for.
In addition, Shuyou Pictures, which is now the main business, has expanded so much, producing movies, operating film and television bases, holding film festivals... and now it has also started an innovative business of animated films, and it does require more management.
"Now that Naoki-san has decided, let's announce it to the two of us quickly!"
Fangcun Dayou complained,
"Recently, these two guys, in addition to looking for people in the entertainment industry, have also come to harass me... It's really annoying!"
Hearing this, Nagayama Naoki immediately laughed:
"Haha, they finally discovered that Shuyou's most powerful connection (tool person) is Otomo-san! After all, when I need people, I have to trouble Otomo-san!"
"..."
This sentence is not specifically a compliment. After Shuyou became stronger and stronger, even if he didn't have much time to socialize, Fangcun Dayou also found that his connections were getting more and more, and the quality was getting higher and higher...
In the past, when making friends, you had to rely on social skills and exchange cups, but now almost all the connections are coming to him, and he only needs to choose...
"Naoki-san, you have planned helpers for Xiu Yi-san..."
Yoshimura Otomo didn't say much on the topic of tool men, but moved on to other things,
"Then the group is so busy now, so I also need an assistant! Where is mine? Where is my assistant?"
This was a bit difficult to say, because Otomo-san had many jobs that should have gone to Nagayama Naoki! So he glanced at the green plants on the window sill, looking a little guilty:
"Um...don't Otomo-san have Masamin-kun?"
"Yamin-kun's work at the office is very cumbersome!" Otomo Yoshimura said, "He can't spare the energy to preside over the group's operations!"
"Are there no other outstanding talents in the company?"
"If there was, I would have discovered it long ago!"
Fangcun Dayu sighed. When Shuyou was a start-up, the requirements were not very high. Most of the people recruited were at the bottom of the entertainment industry. It was really troublesome to train talents to manage large companies.
For example, Inada Masamin, managing all the business of a firm is almost at the pinnacle of his career. Even he himself is a little unable to manage the Shuyou Group...
Fortunately, there was a guy outside the standard named Naoki Nagayama who could tell the truth, so he didn't feel panic at all.
"Um..." Naoki Nagayama thought about the interview he had just received from Shuyou Capital in the morning, and had a flash of inspiration, "Otomo-san! It happens to be the graduation season, let's try to recruit a group of management trainees to train specifically for management positions.
new employees..."
"Attract the best graduates with higher salaries and career futures...select new people with leadership skills and train them into mid- and high-level talents~"
"Otomo-san, when the time comes, rotate the positions of tree friends and give them a try. Management talents will be tempered!"
The management trainee system will be very popular in the future. It can be said that it is a necessary system for improving the execution of corporate leadership on the road of small and medium-sized enterprises growing into large enterprises. It is used by so many companies around the world. Naoki Nagayama does not think that the leaders of those companies are all
Idiot~
He just needs to study and refer to it~
"Is that so? Guan Peisheng..." Otomo Fangcun frowned, and then he remembered that there is a similar system in the neon police system, "Naoki-san, isn't this the 'professional group' in the police?
!”
"Professional group?" Nagayama Naoki was stunned for a moment.
In the neon police system, those who pass the Class 1 national civil servant assessment and enter the police system will be directly promoted to the police department after entry (called the "professional group"). At the same time, after 3 months of cadre training and 9 months of practical experience, they will be directly promoted to the police department.
.
Others need more than 4 years of practical experience in the police department before they can pass the exam and be promoted to the police department... Even police officers recruited from the bottom can only be the patrol director or police department supplementary at most in their lifetime...
.
"It does seem a bit like..."
The professional group has a high starting point and is promoted quickly. In the future, most of them will be middle- and high-level people. Nagayama Naoki also knew that above the professional group, there are also the so-called gold watch group who graduated from Tokyo University, and they are simply candidates for the top level.
Fangcun Dayou sat on the sofa and took a sip of tea:
"Okay, I will arrange for the human resources department to sort out relevant plans. It is indeed time for our tree friends."
"Hmm~"
Seeing Yoshimura Otomo's suddenly relaxed expression, Nagayama Naoki chatted casually for a while, and then said,
"By the way, Otomo-san, I'm going to Hong Kong in two days... Let the General Affairs Department help me get a passport..."
"Hong Kong?" Otomo Yoshimura asked in confusion, "What are you going to do there?"
"Neon can't find the actors for "Tiger of Ginza". I want to go to Hong Kong and give it a try..."
“Is there such a thing as Hong Kong’s entertainment industry?”
"I don't know... there are very few young people who are suddenly rich in neon, but in Hong Kong now, there are a lot of young people who are suddenly rising!"
In 1986, Hong Kong had not yet returned to China, but as the mainland's window to the outside world, Hong Kong's prosperity could even be compared with New York and Tokyo...
The entertainment industry is also naturally prosperous. Jackie Chan alone is already an international star, not to mention a group of stars who are active in Asia and even internationally...
"Tiger of Ginza" tells the story of a young man who suddenly got rich in Ginza. Naoki Nagayama felt that if the young actors in Neon couldn't portray the feeling of getting rich suddenly, they could look for one from Hong Kong...
Not to mention, after recalling "Across the Four Seas", he also wanted to go back to a certain big country in the East to take a look.
.......
Yanyin's headquarters.
Ming Xingfang was leaning against the wall outside the door of the fashion design office, listening to the laughter and exclamations coming from the crack in the door. He felt itchy in his heart, but he couldn't get in...
There is a catwalk going on inside~
In fact, it was just Okada Yukiko changing into the clothes she had designed. There were two new idols inside, too, and they were also trying out their singing costumes...
Thinking of the young and beautiful girls inside who were constantly changing their clothes...with fair and charming bodies...Akiyuki Fusa just felt very tortured at this moment.
"Oh~~~Buddha, is this a test for me?!"
Ming Xingfang took out a cigarette to calm his nerves...
In the design room, in addition to the three girls, there are also Akina and Ueda Maki, stylist Hiroyuki Ochi and two female videographers.
Akina designed the clothes for Okada Yukiko's album cover photo. Today she came over to see how they look on her body. She can also change them at any time in the costume design room.
"As expected, it looks cute on Yukiko!"
Akina's eyes lit up when she looked at the red princess gauze dress worn on Okada Yukiko. It looked lively and cute.
Even girls like to see pretty girls!
"Ah, I still need a princess crown!"
Akina found a bright red bow nearby and put it on Okada Yukiko, making it even more beautiful!
Okada Yukiko, on the other hand, turned around under the command of stylist Hiroyuki Ochi, letting everyone see her whole body, and her face was indescribably happy:
"Every girl wants to wear this kind of princess dress, right?"
Yue Zhiyangshi nodded:
"Mingna's use of colors is very bold! Princess dresses generally don't use bright red..."
Bright red is usually a mature and cool color, but when paired with a tutu skirt and lace patterns, it unexpectedly becomes both eye-catching and cute~
In fact, as an idol stylist, Yoyo Ochi has experienced many female idols, most of whom were dressed up like dolls by stylists and makeup artists.
Some people also have some requirements for styling, what style they prefer...but there are very few people who have the same superb aesthetics and sensitivity to fashion as Akina Nakamori.
Those who can design and make their own clothes are rare!
“Akina-chan is amazing!”
Ueda Maki was praising Nakamori Akina next to her, with a happy smile on her face. She hadn’t seen Akina for a long time~
"It makes me blush~" Akina said with a smile, "Young Se-san is so awesome, he can make clothes so well based on a picture..."
"Hahaha, stop complimenting each other!"
Ochi Yoyo waved his hand,
"There are still a few more sets, let's try them out together... We will go to the official shooting later!"
"Hi~"
Along with the sound of laughter, the process of undressing and dressing began again in the design room.
This is Yukiko Okada's first album after coming to Kenyin. Everyone hopes that she can continue her previous popularity and become the successor of Akina Nakamori and Seiko Matsuda.
After more than an hour passed, the door of the design room opened and a group of girls came out chattering.
Ming Xingfang immediately stood up:
"Yukiko-chan, Akina-chan, have you tried on the clothes yet?"
"Well~ everything has been adjusted, just waiting for the official photo shoot tomorrow!"
With a smile on her face, Okada Yukiko felt that after coming to Kenyin, she became even happier at work.
It's not like when I was at Sunny's office, where I was pushed around like a commodity and had to deal with all kinds of pressure alone.
In fact, April of Showa 61 was the countdown moment of Okada Yukiko's life in another timeline. But now, her whole person is full of energy and full of expectations for the future...
When Akina walked next to Akiko's room, she smelled a strong smell of smoke and immediately stayed away:
"Fang Zesang, why do you smoke so much...it's not good for your lungs!"
"..." If you didn't smoke just now, it would be bad for your nerves~
With that said, Akina took the other girls and walked towards Yanyin's main office area.
Nagayama Naoki doesn't smoke, and Akina naturally doesn't smoke either... After becoming pregnant, she doesn't even smell the smell of cigarette smoke. Even when the full-time driver Toda Tomoe came to pick up Nagayama Naoki, she didn't smell it.
smoke....
After arriving at the main office area, Akina smiled and greeted the employees she knew. Even though she was carrying a big belly, she didn't feel bulky~
Naturally, everyone treated each other warmly, and from time to time they were concerned about the current situation of baby Akina...
When you succeed, all you see are smiling faces. This is true.
Although there are definitely people in Kenyin who are unhappy with Akina, such as senior employees who were bluntly contradicted by Akina when they were working, employees who worked overtime because of Akina's scandal, etc., but now they all suppress their small thoughts and smile at Akina.
Welcome.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After all, even though Akina has temporarily retired, she is still a shareholder of Kenyin and the wife of Naoki Nagayama, a big figure in the entertainment industry!
"The baby should be born around August, right?"
When they arrived at Hana Jianhe's office, the president also became concerned.
"It happens to be the hottest time of the year..."
"Well, it must be a baby as big as the sun!"
Akina smiled and said~
Hanami He also chimed in and chatted for a few words, and as they chatted, they talked about Akina's new album, which was already halfway through.
"Mingna, the songs for the album "DESIRE - Passion -" have been written, have you read it?"
"Hi, I've seen the music score before..."
"This song is based on your style. Yukiko and the others will definitely not be able to perform it well..." Hanami He asked, "Are there any plans to make a comeback after the baby is born?"
"If you want to catch up with the Record Awards at the end of this year, you can make plans now..."
"Well..."
Akina was a little undecided. On the one hand, she wanted to take care of her family and raise her baby. On the other hand, she also wanted to continue singing.
"Are you considering Naoki-san?"
"No... Naoki-san has always supported my singing career!" Akina shook her head, "But I'm worried that I won't be able to take care of the baby..."
"That's it..."
Hua Jianhe thought for a while,
"If that's the case, should Akina consider just releasing records...and not appearing on shows as an idol..."
"Just go to the studio to record the songs and then shoot the album cover..."
"With Akina's previous popularity, there will be good sales!"
"Eh? Is this okay?"
"Of course...many singers are like this..." Hua Jianhe said, it's just that they can't make much money.
There is a not-so-obvious difference between singers releasing records and idols releasing records. Singers make money from their fans, while idols make money from their fans.
Don’t singers want to be exposed? Of course they do...but they may not necessarily have the popularity of idols...
Without exposure, it is not easy to attract fans with your singing skills.
But Akina’s song has already been written, so leaving it there would be a waste. It’s better to release a record and make more money!
"If that's the case, let's make it!"
Akina nodded, decided to start recording, and looked at her stomach.
"...But the cover photo probably won't be taken until after the baby is born!"
"Haha, it's okay!"
Hua Jianhe smiled and said,
"Just take your time, we are not in a hurry this time... we can also try other songs..."
This means that instead of making a single record, I want to make an album!
