Since the morning, Taro has been a little restless.
Even my favorite little yellow duck toy was left aside today. He was wandering around the house, seemingly looking for a hiding place.
Yes, he seemed to have felt it, Yongshan Hezi was coming today!
Nagayama Naoki looked at Yutaro running around and felt a little apologetic in his heart. If he had known, he would not have been allowed to attend the phone call last night.
But Taro, this is your inescapable fate!
Putting Yotaro behind, Naoki Nagayama drove the convertible to the station. Tsuruko would be arriving in a while.
There are occasional showers in Tokyo in April, but the scenery in the rain is also unique.
But today is a good day, the sun is shining, there is a gentle breeze, and Naoki Nagayama, who is sitting in the open hood, can still smell the faint fragrance of flowers. If you analyze it carefully, in addition to cherry blossoms, there are also gardenias, tulips, roses, etc.
Tsuruko chose a good day to come here~
The Shinkansen Tokyo Station is always crowded with people. After Naoki Nagayama parked his car in the parking lot, he waited at the exit.
This time I asked about the arrival time in advance and arrived at the station more than ten minutes early.
It was a bit difficult to find a high school student who was not very tall among the crowds of people coming and going, so Nagayama Naoki decided to let Tsuruko take the initiative to find him.
He stood at the exit of the station, holding a balloon in his hand so that he could see it at the first glance when he exited the station.
Even though he was wearing a mask, Tsuruko would be able to recognize him at a glance as he was much taller than the Japanese average.
So at the exit of Tokyo Station, I saw a masked weirdo holding a balloon... which made the patrol police next to me have the urge to come and ask.
"Ni-chan?!"
Nagayama Tsuruko was wearing a blue sweater, carrying a backpack, and carrying a suitcase. As she walked out of the station, she saw Nagayama Naoki at first sight.
"Tsuruko~" Naoki Nagayama waved, identified himself, then walked over and took the suitcase.
"What did mother bring here? It's so heavy."
Tsuruko finally got rid of the heavy object and shook his hands easily, "It's some dry goods, fresh seafood and snacks. I told you that Ni-chan can be bought in Tokyo, but I still have to bring it here."
"Ha~ it's better to be a mother~" Nagayama Naoki didn't have a mother who could care for him in his previous life.
"Hey, my mother is not here and she is still being courteous." Tsuruko glanced at this second brother with disdain, "Ni-chan really learned how to flatter me in Tokyo!"
"What are you talking about!" Nagayama Naoki knocked Tsuruko on the head unceremoniously, showing his brother's majesty.
The two came to the parking lot while they were having a fight. After getting in the car, Nagayama Tsuruko discovered that Naoki had been wearing a mask.
"Why are you wearing a mask all the time, Ni-chan? Is it because you have a cold?" She naturally knew that Naoki didn't have any symptoms of pollen allergy, and none of their family members had this condition.
"It will be very troublesome if you don't wear a mask. You must know that your brother is a star after all~"
Nagayama Naoki replied casually while driving. This situation has become more serious recently. Originally, the exposure in TV and movies was very great. In addition, he is handsome and easily recognized. He was surrounded by little sisters several times when he went out.
live.
But there is no need to wear it in the car, Naoki Nagayama took off the mask.
"Eh? Is that so?"
Tsuruko still looked a little unbelievable. It was a bit strange to see his eldest brother become a star since he was a child.
Tokyo Station is not far from Sansakura-in, and it only takes ten minutes to drive. Nagayama Naoki quickly turned from the Metropolitan Expressway Yaesu Line into the street.
Looking at the road signs, Tsuruko, who had a certain knowledge of Tokyo, became confused.
"Ni-chan, didn't you go to Waseda? How did you end up in Chiyoda?" She thought Naoki Nagayama had been living in the apartment in Waseda.
"I should have told you before, I live in Sansakura-in now." Naoki Nagayama thought about it, he should have told his family,
"Sansakurain...isn't it another name for the apartment building?"
Hezi was surprised that everyone in his family thought it was just a different name, but they didn't expect it was a different place.
"Ah, no, it's a different place."
Nagayama Naoki is not a person who likes to show off. In addition, in Japan, the property status of the children of separated families is the privacy of adults, and the family generally does not inquire about it, so it caused some cognitive dislocation.
Just as he was talking, Yamazakuin had arrived,
"Hey, we're already here."
Among the bamboo fence is a small gray two-story Western-style building. The brown door and window frames perfectly neutralize the coldness of the gray.
The huge cherry blossom tree next to the small building is already as high as two stories. Coupled with the surrounding green vegetation, it has a Zen feel of tranquility in the midst of chaos.
Nagayama Naoki pressed the remote control, and the door of Yamazakura Garden slowly opened.
As the car drove into the garage, Hezi could also see the large glass windows, the large courtyard, and the scenery of dry mountains and rivers.
There was also a little white dumpling who was barking at the car.
"Yangtaro!"
Tsuruko finally determined that this was Naoki Nagayama's residence, and this was Yamazakura-in.
.......
Tsuruko, who had just arrived at Yamasakura-in, was full of curiosity about everything here.
On the way to the bedroom, Naoki Nagayama asked her almost a hundred thousand questions, such as when did he buy it? How much did it cost? How many rooms are there? What is this room used for...
some type of.
After answering seriously several times, Nagayama Naoki discovered that Tsuruko was not doing it for the answer at all, but to vent his excitement.
At that time, I knew that after Naoki bought an apartment in Waseda, there was Tsubakiya Kona with her, but now in Sansakurain, apart from Yotaro in his arms, Naoki Nagayama was the only one.
"This is your bedroom."
There are four rooms upstairs, a master bedroom, a piano room, and the other two are secondary bedrooms. When you open the door, you will find a Western-style bedroom with no tatami mats or closets.
"The bedding is all new and has been dried in the sun two days ago."
"Hi!"
Tsuruko put the backpack on the bed, and then started exploring everywhere with Yutaro, while Nagayama Naoki went downstairs, thinking about sorting out the things he brought.
After opening the suitcase in the kitchen, there were indeed a lot of things.
The fresh fish in the plastic box looks like it has just been slaughtered. The bag contains pickled dried fish, dried seaweed and other common dry goods. The snack box contains snacks handmade by my mother that I have eaten frequently since I was a child.
.
After Nagayama Naoki put these into categories, he saw that Tsuruko had come down from the second floor. After putting Yutaro in the living room, he started looking at it again on the first floor.
"Ni-chan actually bought such a big house in Tokyo!" Tsuruko's face was red and she was sweating while running around. "Is it so powerful?"
"It's nothing~" Nagayama Naoki said casually, "Celebrities make money very quickly!"
"Todoroki?"
Of course not! How can ordinary idols make money as fast as Naoki Nagayama?
Even top artists can earn tens of millions a year, which is amazing. Not to mention that most artists receive very low remuneration in the first few years of their careers in the agency.
It’s just the capital behind it.
Compared to ordinary people, they certainly earn more, but when compared with Naoki Nagayama, all of them would cry.
The good thing about Naoki Nagayama is that he directly sold a few popular songs, a show, and then two movies, all at basically no cost.
"Ni-chan, do you think I can become a star?" Nagayama Tsuruko seemed to be impressed by the celebrity industry where the "money" is unlimited, and asked confidently.
"You..." Looking at the high school girl who can only be described as slightly pretty, "Tsuruko-chan, can you dance? Can you sing? Can you perform?"
"...No way!" Nagayama Tsuruko was a little panicked, but immediately gained momentum, "But I can learn, I'm very smart!"
"Tsuruko-chan, then you should focus on how to use your smart brain~"
Although Naoki Nagayama was able to arrange her debut, even provide her with some well-known songs, and even take her to film movies, etc.,
But he still doesn't want Tsuruko to enter the entertainment industry. This place is completely a big mixed dyeing vat. Ordinary people don't know what color they will be dyed into after entering. For those who are not talented enough or lucky enough, the entertainment industry will
All your youth and dreams are consumed, leaving behind a scarred soul.
And I can't always be by Tsuruko's side. She has her own life and will come into contact with different people, meet friends, and meet love...
As we all know, friendship and love in the entertainment industry are both luxuries.
"What! Ni-chan, you look down on people!"
Tsuruko ran away angrily and sought comfort from Taro Taro who was hiding somewhere.
Nagayama Naoki looked at Tsuruko's youthful back and smiled. As a top student, if Tsuruko can learn computer technology well, he might become a female version of Steve Jobs in the future~
"Tsuruko, let's go out to eat at noon!"
"Hi! Where are we going?"
"Of course I go to my usual restaurant."
.......
There was still a long time before noon, and Tsuruko and Taro Taro were playing catch in the yard.
In the afternoon, I planned to pick up Akiho Nakamori with Tsuruko and plan to go shopping in Shibuya shops. Speaking of which, I also have a set of shops in Shibuya, which I haven't visited in a long time.
After making a pot of tea for the two of them, Nagayama Naoki, who was a little leisurely, read the newspaper he had not finished reading this morning in the living room.
There are no negative reports on "Gas Station Robbery" at all in the newspapers. The few articles they have are also analyzing the impact of this movie from a positive perspective. It seems that Yoshimura Otomo and Toei have a good discussion.
Other pages contain some recent news from the entertainment industry. There is even news about Johnny's top idol on Fuji TV. Masahiko Kondo's profile picture is circled separately.
Has this newspaper not been publicized? Naoki Nagayama flipped through the name - "Tokyo Sports". It is indeed said to be a newspaper that can only be trusted by its date. It dares to report anything!
Just then, the phone in the living room rang,
"Moses, Moses, this is Yamazakura-in."
"Naoki-san, I am Yoshimura Otomo~" The voice of Yoshimura Otomo came from the other end of the microphone, and he seemed a little impatient.
If you say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be here!
"Otomo-san, what's wrong? Are you breathing so hard?"
"Daidupa, Daidupa, I just came back from outside." Otomo Yoshimura explained, "I rushed back after sending Junko-chan to the show."
"Eh? Isn't it Masamin Inada who is picking you up?"
"Ineda-kun is going to help find a suitable Akita dog~"
"Huh? Have you already started preparing? You haven't even visited Hachiko's hometown, have you?" Nagayama Naoki was a little surprised.
"Anyway, we must be looking for a puppy. It is quite troublesome to find two Akita dogs that are very different in age but similar in appearance." Otomo Yoshimura suddenly thought of something, "Naoki-san, you are
The belt is crooked."
"I'm calling because several record company producers called the office. They want to ask you to customize some songs for their idols."
"Huh? Want me to customize it?"
"Yes, there are already several best-selling songs, and people in the industry are saying that Naoki-san is a very talented songwriter." Fangcun Otomo praised him, "He is quite withdrawn, and he doesn't like gatherings or competitions in the industry.
To participate, I don’t even know how to contact you.”
"If "Ye Hit" hadn't found out that Junko Ito was an idol at Naoki-san's agency, they might have been able to contact her through the phone that had been replaced by Shuyu Pictures."
"Hahaha, that's right. The new phone number has not been publicized to the outside world." The phone number in the studio was changed because of harassing calls. Currently, this number is only known among acquaintances.
"So, is Naoki-san planning to take action?" Otomo Yoshimura asked, "It's a good opportunity to make a name for yourself~"
"Of course not!" Naoki Nagayama understood his situation and wanted to customize the song. How could that be done?
"Otomo-san, didn't you tell me before? I am an inspirational creator. When I have no inspiration, I have no creative talent at all! So, whether it is my own idol or someone else's, I can't customize it!"
I only heard the quiet muttering from the other side of the phone: "Actually, it's just Naoki-san who finds it troublesome..."
"Huh? What did you say, Otomo-san?"
"Nothing, nothing. If Naoki-san is not willing, then I will reject them." Yoshimura Otomo's voice returned, "Naoki-san, are you coming to the studio today? Find time to visit the hometown of Hachiko, the loyal dog?"
"It may not be possible these days. My sister came to Tokyo to play, so I have to stay with her~"
"That's it, let's go first." Fangcun Dayou hung up the phone.
Nagayama Naoki was very confused, just to let him know, are there any other producers coming to arrange songs? This is not an urgent matter, does it need to be called in the morning?
.......
photo studio,
Yoshimura Otomo put down the phone and looked at Itou Shuichi next to him,
"Shuichi-san and Naoki-san are not willing to ask for customization from others. This is the treatment that famous songwriters get. It seems that there are really no songs left."
Itou Shuichi shook his head: "Otomo-san, I still don't believe that a guy like Naoki-san will definitely hold back."
"Alas...but Naoki-san doesn't want to release it. What should I do with Junko Ito's next song?" Yoshimura Otomo, in addition to preparing for the new movie during this period, is worried about Junko Ito's next song.
a song,
After all, it's been a long time since I debuted, so if the next song doesn't follow, it will be a bit too monotonous.
As for other songwriters, it’s so easy to find... you can’t even find good songs~
