The days in Hong Kong pass very quickly. It seems that as soon as you open your eyes, there are many things rushing towards you. Then, surrounded by alcohol and music, you close your eyes and sleep like a baby~
Nagayama Naoki didn't know when he suddenly made many friends, and all of them wanted to invite him out to eat, sing, dance... There were men and women, as if they were pursuing him!
However, in the past few days, he has witnessed the parties of Hong Kong's upper class, tried the food stalls of the ordinary people, went to see the trendy concerts at the Hong Kong Coliseum, and experienced the traditional culture of Wong Tai Sin Temple...
Naturally, during this process, there will always be artists and actors recommended by this big brother or that big brother. Everyone hopes to have the opportunity to appear in Shuyou's new movie~
"Naoki-san..." Masataka Komori, who was having breakfast, had dark circles under his eyes and asked a little weakly, "Are you still going for the interview today?"
"I won't go!" Nagayama Naoki shook his head, "There have been a lot of people watching these two days. We have already seen the most elite artists in Hong Kong's entertainment industry, and there is no one better than the previous two...
.”
Kijima Kyor was eating breakfast silently, but his eyes looked at Nagayama Naoki:
"So Naoki-san, which one of the two do you want to choose?"
"Didn't I say that I'll decide when I get back~"
Komori Masataka finished the food on the plate in several mouthfuls and asked excitedly:
"Naoki-san, I'm going back this evening. What should we do during the day?"
What to do? Looking at your squinting eyes, I know what you want to do!
Nagayama Naoki rolled his eyes. These two followers seemed to have fallen into heaven these days:
"Masaka-kun, if you are too young to be restrained, you will have to be cautious when you reach middle age!"
"Haha, then you should enjoy this colorful world while you are young!"
Komori Masataka was open-minded and looked unconcerned.
Nagayama Naoki shook his head. If he tries to persuade them once, he is kind-hearted. If he tries to persuade them too much, he will get annoyed. He is not their father!
"You can figure it out on your own during the day... As for me, I will make your own arrangements..."
Komori Masataka had a smile on his face:
"Naoki-san, are you..."
"No! Don't think about it! Get out!"
Nagayama Naoki blocked the rest of this guy's words with three consecutive clicks.
After a leisurely breakfast, Naoki Nagayama went to Nathan Road to do some shopping, and had agreed to bring gifts to his relatives and friends in Tokyo.
Nathan Road is dotted with a variety of shops. Whether you want to buy the latest fashion clothes or trendy items, or you want to search for local specialties, you can find them here.
Nagayama Naoki was not in a hurry, and slowly walked around one store after another. When he saw something that caught his eye, he immediately took it and had it delivered to the Peninsula Hotel without even telling the price.
What a waste of time~
.......
I was looking at ties in a men's clothing store when I suddenly saw a group of people walking in.
From a distance, I saw that the one in the lead was actually Anita Mui, who is currently in the limelight in the Hong Kong music industry, and the one following behind was Grasshopper. It looked like a big sister came in with three younger brothers to buy clothes...
"In the entertainment industry, people rely on clothes and saddles. If you dress better, people will look at you more!"
Although she looks young, Anita Mui talks like a big sister. When she comes to the store, it's like coming to her own home, and she lets the clerk introduce the latest clothes.
When Naoki Nagayama came here this time, most of the people he met were male artists. He really had no contact with Anita Mui in the music industry. When he saw Anita Mui for the first time, he subconsciously thought of what happened between her and Akina in the previous life.
Cheated by the same scumbag...
"That guy Kondo...will never be with Anita Mui again in this life..."
Because Naoki Nagayama, the big boss in the industry, is clearly targeting him, he is not allowed to appear on "Music Station", and Shuyou's idols are not on the same stage with him. Under such circumstances, Kondo Masahiko is now a third-tier idol in Neon.
The kind that is almost out of date with age.
Johnny's Mary tried to soften her mind several times, but Naoki Nagayama didn't respond. Unknowingly, Naoki Nagayama had almost completely defeated him.
"It should have changed!"
While he was stunned, Naoki Nagayama had already been discovered by Anita Mui...
He walked over in two or three steps.
In this era, Hong Kong's music industry regarded the neon music industry as a model. Many songs were covers, and even some image creations were borrowed from the neon idol industry, so Anita Mui recognized Naoki Nagayama at a glance.
"Are you...Naoki Nagayama?!" Anita Mui has released a Japanese album, so naturally she can speak Japanese, "It's really you!"
"Hello..." Naoki Nagayama smiled and nodded, "Anita...right?"
"Hi, Yongshan-san, it's our first time meeting you, please give me some advice!"
"Anita, first time meeting..."
After exchanging names, Anita Mui said very familiarly:
"I heard from Leslie a few days ago that the famous Naoki Nagayama came to Hong Kong to audition for actors. Unfortunately, we have only been together for a long time. I want him to give me water and hit you in the dance hall!"
"Hahaha, we bumped into each other here too~"
"That's right..."
It's easy to get acquainted with people you know well, and coupled with Anita Mui's outgoing personality, the two quickly became friends.
Speaking of which, Anita Mui and Akina Nakamori are somewhat similar. They both entered the entertainment industry from the bottom through drafts, and then gradually became popular idol stars.
If it weren't for Naoki Nagayama in this life, the relationship paths of the two would have been very similar...
By the way, the female celebrities who have emerged from the bottom in this era seem to have similar experiences. They are born in the same family, become famous at a young age, meet unkind people, and are trapped in love... In short, they are all a bit heart-wrenching.
"Mr. Naoki, don't you need to continue the interview today?" Anita Mui asked.
"Ah, it's our last day in Hong Kong, and I want to buy some gifts to go back to." Naoki Nagayama looked at the trio looking at themselves in the mirror not far away, "Anita, are you helping your friend choose clothes?"
"Ah, those three are very talented new singers!"
Anita Mui called the three "Grasshoppers" over and asked them to meet Naoki Nagayama.
"But all of them are stupid and can't even dress up..."
"Ha, you're a straight man~" Nagayama Naoki smiled and greeted a few people in a friendly manner, "It only takes a few years of experience..."
"Mr. Naoki is not much older than them..."
“It’s different after more experience!”
Anita Mui treats the three people from Grasshopper as her younger brothers and spares no effort to help them in their careers. At this time, letting them meet Naoki Nagayama is actually a way of brushing off their faces in advance.
Seeing Naoki Nagayama worrying about what to buy as a gift, she also helped to choose some clothes suitable for semi-elderly people like Yoshimura Otomo and middle-aged people like Itou Shuichi.
“I don’t know how the current neon trend is different from that in Hong Kong, but these should be very suitable!”
"Thank you so much!" Naoki Nagayama paid the money readily and said with a smile, "It helped a lot~ In the past, Akina helped with the clothing. It's too troublesome if she's not around~"
Mentioning Akina Nakamori, Anita Mui was a little curious. Naturally, she had also heard the story of the relationship between Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori, so she looked at Naoki Nagayama:
"Will Ms. Akina Nakamori come back after she gets married?"
"About this..." Naoki Nagayama said, "After our discussion before, Akina and I decided to focus on the career of singers and become powerful singers, and no longer take into consideration the identity of idols..."
"This can reduce various other activities. You can not only sing to fans who care about you, but also free up more time to take care of your family..."
"That's it~" Anita Mui was a little envious after hearing this, "It's indeed a very good plan..."
Being able to marry the person you like and continue your favorite singing career after marriage is already a very beautiful marriage for women of this era.
"Anita, what about you?"
Since we talked about emotions, Naoki Nagayama thought of Anita Mui’s bad fate.
"Is there anyone you like?"
"Me? Hahaha, the people chasing me in Hong Kong are lining up to enter Victoria Harbor!" Anita Mui laughed covertly, "But I didn't even accept it!"
She has many friends, but none of them want to fall in love yet...
"So, what about outside of Hong Kong? Mainland China? Europe and the United States? Or..." Naoki Nagayama asked what he wanted to ask the most, "Is there anyone in Neon who makes you happy?"
As a singer with global goals, she has naturally traveled to different places, and the neon entertainment industry has also participated in many activities...
Anita Mui shook her head: "No!"
Nagayama Naoki breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that Anita Mui and Kondo haven't had any sparks yet. And according to that guy's current reputation, there is a high probability that he will not come to Hong Kong to hold any concerts!
This bad relationship can be said to be broken with a high probability... right?!
No, I have to add insurance!!!
I won't allow this evil fate!
"What a pity!" After the thought flashed through his head, Naoki Nagayama immediately said to Anita Mui, "Next time you come to Neon, I can introduce you to some unmarried heroes!"
"I can find it myself!" Anita Mui rolled her eyes, it's not like she can't get married!
Naoki Nagayama reminded:
"Haha, that's fine... But Anita had better not find someone from the entertainment industry, especially not from Johnny & Associates!"
"Why?" Anita Mui asked curiously, "The idol from Johnny & Associates is very handsome?"
"...Um, this..."
Naoki Nagayama's eyes looked troubled, as if he had something unspeakable, but it aroused Anita Mui's curiosity.
"Mr. Naoki...is there anything you can't say?"
"Forget it, although it's a bit embarrassing, it's not a secret in Neon! For the sake of Anita's future, I'd better tell you!"
Nagayama Naoki seemed to have a little ideological struggle, and then quietly approached Anita Mui's ear and talked about Johnny's privacy!
The Grasshopper trio who were not far away vaguely heard something like Kitagawa, trainee, chrysanthemum, etc. Although they didn’t know what the privacy was, they felt a chill on their backs!
During this period, you can see Anita Mui's eyes widening, and in the end she even covered her mouth!
In this era before the Internet existed, and information was not very developed, most people thought that the entertainment industry was just a bit of a waste of money, and the people in it were more open to emotions. The most they could think of was multi-player sports and the like~
There is no concept of Loli Island, Diddy Party, etc. Even the story that has to be told between Kitagawa and Johnny's idol now makes Anita Mui feel that her spiritual world has been polluted...
"Naoki-san...are you telling the truth?!"
"Ahem, the neon entertainment industry is indeed not a clean place, but Johnny & Associates is the only one who has gone too far!"
Anita Mui looked at Naoki Nagayama in a low voice:
"Then the Shibu Persimmon Team..."
"Um...."
Then Anita Mui's eyes started to look frightened:
"Then Xicheng Hideki..."
She is the vice president of Saijo Hideki Fan Club!!!
"Hideki-san is from the Eiei Agency!" Nagayama Naoki explained.
"That's good, that's good!"
Anita Mui patted her chest and began to breathe heavily...
"Anita, just be aware of it. It's best not to talk nonsense when you go to Neon in the future. Kitagawa is still very powerful... Anyway, don't be deceived..."
Perhaps because of the intertwined feelings of past and present lives, Naoki Nagayama actually directly told Anita Mui, whom he had known for a short time, about the scandal in the neon entertainment industry...
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In short, if you tell one person about this place in the entertainment industry, especially someone like Anita Mui who has a wide range of friends, other people will know sooner or later.
.......
After picking out the gifts, we naturally made an appointment for lunch together.
While having dinner together at noon, Anita Mui heard that Naoki Nagayama would fly back to Tokyo in the afternoon, and she was very sorry:
"It's just a pity that Mr. Naoki has to go back so early."
"If we get to know each other earlier, we can go to the disco and dance together and entertain them well... Leslie also wants to play mahjong with Mr. Naoki!"
Playing mahjong is a very popular entertainment activity in Hong Kong. Some people in the entertainment industry often get together to play mahjong, and many things are discussed on the mahjong table.
"There is a chance..." Nagayama Naoki said seriously, "When you come to Tokyo, I will definitely entertain you!"
"Then it's a deal!"
Anita Mui also shook her hand freely. Currently, most of the singers in the Hong Kong entertainment industry are thinking about releasing Japanese albums and proving their presence in the neon entertainment industry. As one of the most popular singers at present, Anita Mui will not miss neon.
She will definitely pass by this market!
After saying goodbye to Anita Mui and the Grasshopper trio, Naoki Nagayama also carried a lot of things in his hands and started heading towards the Peninsula Hotel.
He went back to pack his things and made a few calls to some friends he met in Hong Kong. He was about to return to Tokyo!
I came to Hong Kong and got to know a lot of people. I even met acquaintances from my past memories. It was already a fruitful experience~
...
Standing in the suite of the Peninsula Hotel, Naoki Nagayama looked at the sea view of Victoria Harbor through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and then changed his angle and looked towards Kowloon...
Looking to the northeast, Ma'anshan and Baxian Ridge are shaded by green trees.
Further to the northeast...Shenzhen, Fuzhou...
In the end, Nagayama Naoki's eyes were empty, and he seemed to see the city where he was born and grew up...
"It's a pity that I can't get through this time..."
In this era, whether you are traveling from Tokyo or Hong Kong to the mainland, you have to go through multiple checks. As a neon man, he needs complicated procedures...
"Next time if you have a chance, go and see if that orphanage is still there... is the director the same as before..."
"There are still five years left, and I don't know if there will be another person with the same name left at the door of the orphanage in this life..."
Sighing, Nagayama Naoki also knew that this chance would most likely not exist...
"Forget it!" Nagayama Naoki turned around and continued to pack his luggage, "These gifts are for Akina, they need to be kept separately... For the rest, just check them in!"
It's been almost a week since he last saw Akina. This is the longest time they've been apart since they got married for almost half a year. He already misses her very much!
