151, Yuko-san, its time to return the novel to me, right?
...
I came back very early, not even 4 o'clock,
Nagayama Naoki turned on the record player, randomly picked out a record and listened to it.
Well, the blues "The
Thrill
Is
Gone》,
Sitting on the sofa holding the little thing in my arms, listening to an old man's cigarette-smoking voice slowly telling a story, my mind wandered... and I thought of the previous casting conversation.
Actors need to be found by Johnny & Johnson, and actresses also need to be found by the agency. It's really a tight monopoly.
The Higuchi Kanako I know is currently busy with other films. Is there really no one I know about the actress I am familiar with?
At this time, the sentence "Anisan~" seemed to suddenly echo in my mind. Yes, don't you know one of them?
It seems like she still owes me a book that she hasn’t paid back yet!
Naoki Nagayama immediately found the phone number left by Yuko Tanaka and dialed it. He had no idea whether he was at home at this time.
After two busy beeps,
"Moses Moses, this is Tanaka's house."
"Yuko-san, I am Naoki Nagayama, the author of "Summer Garden"~" Hearing his own voice, Naoki Nagayama immediately identified himself.
"Ah, it's Naoki-san, afternoon... no, good evening!" The other person on the phone seemed to be caught off guard.
Tanaka Yuko, who was holding a spoon in one hand and answering the phone with the other, obviously didn't expect Naoki Nagayama to call. She was cooking!
"Hahaha, good evening Yuko-san~" Nagayama Naoki greeted cheerfully, "Arnold~ Should I return the book?"
"Ah???"
Tanaka Yuko was shocked by the sudden words from the other side, and felt embarrassed that her creditor would come to her door if she didn't pay back the money she owed.
Naoki Nagayama was still complaining: "It's the book you couldn't bear to let go of when you were reading it in my car when I went to the premiere a few years ago. At that time, you promised to give it back to me after you finish reading it.
Yes, it’s been the Chinese New Year and I still haven’t paid it back..."
Tanaka Yuko quickly interrupted: "Hey, hey, hey! I understand! Smith Marseille! I will pay it back right away, I will pay it back right away!"
"I have kept this book well! I will definitely return it with my own hands!"
Who is this?
As an author, does he really call his fans to request books? Can't he give them to female fans?
"Oh? There is a late fee for late returns at the library... Is it just that simple for Yuko-san to pay it back?"
"Huh?" Tanaka Yuko was a little confused, he actually asked for compensation?
Who is this person? He looked handsome before, which made people a little tempted!
"Hahaha, Yuko-san, I'm not joking with you~" Nagayama Naoki laughed.
"..." So was it funny just now?
Naoki Nagayama changed his tone to a more serious tone: "Actually, I'm calling because I have a business inquiry. Yuko-san, are you still available in the recent schedule?"
"There is still room for the time being." Although she was a bit speechless about the "teasing" before, Tanaka Yuko still answered seriously, "So there is a movie project?"
He is not a particularly popular filmmaker. It is normal to participate in one film a year. The "Hokusai Manga" he participated in at the end of last year is still fermenting. In the middle of this year, a film "The Mystery of Amagi Gorge" is already in preparation. Next time
We are also negotiating for a TV series in the first half of the year, and it is indeed scheduled for the first half of the year.
"Hi, there is currently a low-budget comedy that is looking for actresses, so I wanted to ask Yuko-san if there is any schedule here~Would you like to come and participate~"
"What kind of movie is it? Do you have a script?" Since it is a serious matter, of course you must ask this question clearly, otherwise what will you do if you are deceived into taking a weird project?
"Of course!" Naoki Nagayama assured, "Are you free tomorrow, Yuko-san? We can come out to meet and chat~"
"That couldn't be better~"
After the two agreed on the time and place to meet tomorrow, Yuko Tanaka put down the phone.
"Wait, is this a new dating routine?!"
It was just a two-way relationship with Nagayama Naoki. Although the impression was pretty good, if he was using this as an excuse to ask someone out...
So should I go or not?
Suddenly I smelled a burnt smell,
"Ah, the food is burnt!"
...
Naoki Nagayama put down the phone,
Then I easily made a bowl of ramen for dinner,
But seeing Taro being addicted to high-end dog food,
The homemade ramen in my bowl no longer tastes good,
I’m going to have a good meal tomorrow too!
After taking care of Yutaro and their own dinner, the two guys started their TV addiction journey again.
"Yutaro, that's Arale-chan. She's very powerful. She can invent all kinds of black-tech weapons~"
And Taro Ying looked at this unknown owner, and then bit into the little yellow duck. Recently, his teeth were itching again, and he always wanted to bite something.
After finishing one episode of Arale, Naoki Nagayama switched channels to watch Night Hit. Miyuki Nakajima's "Evil Girl" released in October last year is still hot, with a fresh and lively style, which is completely different from her previous love song style, which is refreshing.
Matsuda Seiko also performed last year's "Wind Standing", but no new songs have been released during this period.
But after a while, maybe Xiao Mingcai will make her debut?
There will be more competitors, Seiko-san~
.....
Go back in time just a little bit,
At this time, Nakamori Akina was arguing with the head of the Propaganda Department, Terashi Linchao.
"Why can't you use "Second"
"Love" as the debut song? Isn't it a very good song?" Nakamori Akina's face flushed a little with excitement, "The audition effect is obviously very good~"
Si Linchao explained patiently: "Second
"Love" is indeed a good song, but it is not suitable as a debut song. When a newcomer debuts, it is either a blockbuster or a fresh release, but this song is a second one.
Love, it doesn’t match the meaning of a new debut..."
Nakamori Akina's stubbornness even required Terabayashi Chao to persuade her with the reason that "the meaning does not match"...
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Earlier, I did not agree with the agency to obtain a stage name, and insisted on debuting with the original name.
In other words, Yanyin is a small firm that has just entered the entertainment industry.
For the time being, the treasure is placed on Akina Nakamori alone, otherwise such an artist would have been kicked back to his hometown long ago!
This very enterprising publicity manager has asked more than a dozen famous lyricists and composers to create a debut song for Akina Nakamori!
You must know that famous lyricists and composers are a huge gimmick in themselves. The songs created by these famous artists will be given preferential treatment based on their fame, at least when the media reviews or reports them.
And "Second
Although the song "Love" is good, Naoki Nagayama, who wrote the lyrics and composed the music, only has 2 singles. Although the sales are good, he is not a famous guy in the recording industry.
Use his music? Where do you put the faces of other famous songwriters?
Isn’t this a feud? Do you want to invite others to write music in the future?
"But the debut song should be the best song, right? What does it mean? At worst, I can pray to the Buddha before debuting!"
Si Linchao almost laughed: "Please ask the Buddha?"
Looking at Nakamori Akina's serious face, he secretly thought to himself that he didn't really plan to worship Buddha... This would be too...
Si Linchao thought for a while: "Let's do this, Ming Cai Sang, when we record the record, we can also record this song, and we can choose it later~"
Take it slow for a while and think of a solution when the time comes!
Anyway, this song is really good. If I can’t use it on the first album, can I use it on the second one~
"I will let Nobuo Tomioka contact the author."
Teran Chao suddenly remembered that Naoki Nagayama seemed to have never disclosed his contact information. Some staff members had tried to contact him before, but they seemed unable to reach him. (The public contact number at the studio was harassed before.
It has been replaced with a new one, and fewer people know about it~)
"Um, Akina-san has the author's contact information, right?"
"Hi, I do have Naoki-san's phone number, but it's a private number, so it's not convenient to give it to me casually." Nakamori Akina said matter-of-factly.
"Mingna is really straight-tempered..." Teralin Chao was choked, "Then please help Mingna-san to make an appointment and let the company confirm the contract with him."
