252.1, suddenly became a man with 2.5 billion accounts

The cool morning breeze blows on the face, making people feel relaxed and happy.

It’s almost October in Tokyo, and it always feels like it’s red.

There seem to be too many red maples in this era. Naoki Nagayama could see many red landscapes on the roadside while driving.

Today I made an appointment to go to Tokyo Jiaocheng Wind Orchestra to listen to the rehearsal effect of "silent love", so I came out early in the morning.

When they arrived at the Rissei Koisekai Headquarters in Suginami Ward, Yoshimura Otomo had already arrived and was waiting for Naoki Nagayama in the parking lot.

"Naoki-san, you're finally here~" There was a bit of complaint in his tone, after all, he had been waiting in the parking lot for almost half an hour.

"Ah, Private Marseille, Otomo-san, I rarely come to Suginami District. I don't even know the road very well. I took a long detour~"

Nagayama Naoki honestly admitted his mistake, but fortunately the time agreed with the orchestra was not too restrictive, and they would practice at this time every day.

The place where the Tokyo Kyosei Wind Ensemble often performs is called the Pumon Hall, which is located inside the Rissei Kyosei Association General Assembly. When the venue is not open, it is also used as a rehearsal venue.

After entering the venue, the orchestra was rehearsing "silent love". The soft melody was very mesmerizing. Yoshimura Otomo took Nagayama Naoki to find the band manager Takeda Kazumori who was watching.

"Takeda-san~"

Yoshimura Otomo called softly from the side door to avoid disturbing the musicians who were practicing. Takeda Kazuo noticed and walked to the side door.

"Yangcun-san, you are here."

"Hi, you've been waiting for a long time." Yoshimura Otomo apologized respectfully, and then introduced sideways, "This is Naoki Nagayama, the creator of "silent love"."

"Naoki-san, this is Takeda Kazumori, the senior manager of the Tokyo Outstanding Wind Ensemble."

When Nagayama Naoki saw the white-haired Takeda Ichimori, he also bowed formally and said hello: "Hello, I am Nagayama Naoki. This is the first time we meet. Please give me some advice."

"So you are Teacher Nagayama Naoki. I have heard of you for a long time." Ichimori Takeda said cheerfully, "I heard that you were a young genius, but I didn't expect you to be so young."

Nagayama Naoki was surprised: "Have you heard of me?"

"Of course, he has only been in the industry for two years, but he is already a talented creator with several famous songs." Takeda Kazumo said with a smile, "But in comparison, Mr. Nagayama Naoki never participates in industry gatherings and activities

The rumors are actually more famous."

"Hahaha, I just feel like I'm not a real musician."

"If that doesn't count, who else can be called a musician? What's more, Nagayama-san can compose such a wonderful symphony."

Takeda Ichimori praised Nagayama Naoki so much that his face turned red. Yoshimura Otomo who was standing next to him couldn't stand it, so he quickly interrupted: "Okay, Takeda-san, if you continue to praise Naoki Nagayama, the young man will float to the sky. We are here today."

I’m here to hear the results of the rehearsal, let the orchestra play!”

"Otomo-san, you finally met such a talented young man, you should get closer to him~"

Takeda Ichimori did not continue to praise, but led the two of them in, "Okay, okay, you two will find a seat and sit down first, and wait for a while."

As the old man spoke, he walked over to the conductor and whispered for a while. When he saw the conductor nodded, it should have been arranged.

Nagayama Naoki here asked:

"Otomo-san, why is Mr. Takeda so enthusiastic? Is he your good friend?"

"Of course not. Didn't you hear that I was also called by my last name?" Yoshimura Otomo's voice dropped a little lower, "Takeda-san is an old man of Tokyo's leading wind orchestra. He is also a veteran in the classical music industry and has good relations with all major orchestras.

, and also have good relations with TV stations and the government.”

"But this guy's biggest hobby is young people, especially young geniuses."

"Hey!!" Naoki Nagayama was shocked and immediately sat up straight, "Did this hobby actually spread openly?"

Yoshimura Otomo saw that Naoki Nagayama had misunderstood and couldn't help but smile: "That's not the case. Takeda-san likes to support and invest in young and talented musicians. This is why he has a wide network of contacts in the industry."

"That's it"

Nagayama Naoki was relieved.

At this time, Takeda Ichimori walked up to the two of them again: "Wait a moment, it will start soon. What were you talking about just now?"

"We were talking about the history of Tokyo's leading band" Yoshimura Otomo fooled the past,

Just as the band's performance started, several people also listened attentively.

"Silent Love" starts almost silently. As the music progresses and orchestral instruments are added, the quiet and meaningful melody slowly rises and falls, making people seem to be floating with the waves in a quiet sea.

The performance of more than 5 minutes was quickly completed. Nagayama Naoki and Yoshimura Otomo couldn't help but applaud, causing the band conductor to turn around and bow.

Takeda Ichimori smiled and said, "How's it going? Is your performance okay?"

Like a grandfather showing off his children and grandchildren, he said it was nothing, but there was indescribable pride on his face.

"It's really great. It is indeed the best band in Japan!" Naoki Nagayama naturally praised it.

"Hahaha, thank you for the compliment." Ichimori Takeda was very happy, "We will be recording later, right?"

Yoshimura Otomo quickly answered, "Yes, we have already made an appointment for tomorrow's recording studio. It's hard to find such a big one. Is there any problem with the band?"

"Of course, no problem, Nagayama-san, I heard that the music is going to be put into the movie?"

"Hey, after adding a piece of human harmony, it can be used as the soundtrack of the movie."

"Eh? Do you want to add human harmony? Isn't the simple music already good?"

"After all, it is about love, and it would be incomplete without the participation of people~" Naoki Nagayama found a reason, "This movie cannot be completely devoid of the voice of love."

Takeda Ichimori was confused, but he was not a talkative person, "Hey, let's wait until tomorrow to record."

The two people who walked out of the Pumen Hall briefly bumped into each other in the parking lot.

"I'm going to Philips Records to make final confirmation about Kashiwahara Yoshie. Is Naoki-san going to the studio?"

"I'm going to go anyway, I hope I don't run into Shuichi-san~" Nagayama Naoki also didn't want to run into Shuichi-san at this time, and he felt a little apologetic.

"Hahaha, Naoki-san, you can't escape~"

"You can hide for a while."

"Okay, one more thing, don't forget Naoki-san for next week's Silver Valley Music Festival. Don't run back to your hometown at that time." Otomo Yoshimura reminded Naoki Nagayama, "Just now Takeda-san also said, Naoki-san

Shusang's reputation for never attending musical events has spread far and wide."

"Hi~Hi~I got it~"

Nagayama Naoki had really planned to go home. Apart from anything else, Yutaro was still staying at his hometown. If he stayed for one more day, he would risk gaining a pound. But since Yoshimura Otomo said so, he would still wait for Silver Valley Music.

Let’s talk about it later~

After they drove away, Naoki Nagayama came to the studio from Suginami Ward.

The huge studio has finally become popular again. Itou Shuichi is still not there. Komori Masataka and three staff members are sorting out the shooting equipment and shooting materials brought back from Okinawa.

"Masataka-kun." Seeing Komori Masataka who was busy, Nagayama Naoki called him over.

The young man saw Nagayama Naoki coming and was a little excited: "Naoki-san, are you going to start editing?"

It seems that I have been waiting for editing for a long time, especially now that I can get started and directly accept the guidance of Naoki-san.

"It can't be so fast. The dubbing hasn't been recorded yet. Let's arrange the materials according to the general plot first! We'll probably start editing the day after tomorrow."

Komori Masataka nodded, and then asked in confusion: "There is no need for Naoki-san to come in person for this kind of thing, right?"

"Well, there are some financial matters~"

Hearing this, Komori Masataka didn't ask any more questions, bowed and went to work.

Nagayama Naoki walked to a relatively remote small office in the studio and knocked on the door.

This is the financial office of Shuyu Pictures and GG Office. There are only two people in it, Mitsurei Kitamura and Moki Tsunoda, who are the company's financial officers and also handle Naoki Nagayama's personal finance part-time.

"Guang Lian-sang, Moxi-sang, are you there?"

"Please come in!"

After opening the door, there were two female financial officers who were already quite old. When they saw Nagayama Naoki, they quickly stood up and said hello.

"Naoki-san, good morning. Why are you here today?"

Also, Naoki Nagayama from the finance office often doesn't come.

"Guang Liansang, let me check the share of the last movie and my current financial situation."

To be honest, since the money in his bank account reached hundreds of millions, Naoki Nagayama himself didn't remember much about the specific figures and entries. He had to rely on the finance department to give a report every quarter to know how much money he had.

"Hi!"

Although it was not the time, Kitamura Mitsuru didn't say much, but turned around and took out the information from a separate cabinet and started rummaging through it.

"Naoki-san, the first box office dividend of "The Story of Hachiko" has been remitted to the account. After deducting taxes, Shuyou Pictures has received nearly 2.7 billion, and Naoki-san has received a total of 1.4 billion in dividends.

It has also been remitted to the account of your personal agency Halo Studio."

"Well, how much money does Halo Studio currently have in total on its books?" In order to avoid taxes, movie-related shares and song-related shares are paid to the studio's account, while Naoki Nagayama's personal account generally only receives royalties.

Real estate rent, etc.

"The current available funds of Halo Studio are about 1.7 billion." Mitsuru Kitamura said, "I have to ask Moki about Naoki-san's personal account."

Nagayama Naoki looked to the other side. She was managing his personal account, "Momoki-san?"

"Hi, Naoki-san's personal account has been debited some time ago for 2 renovation funds, 1 car purchase fee, and 1 real estate purchase fee. Currently, there are still 860 million."

"Did it actually increase?"

"Hey, Xiaoxiaoguan has received another royalty payment. It's a large amount, as well as bits and pieces of rent, as well as revenue from the disco."

"So that's how it is, I understand."

Naoki Nagayama, who suddenly became a man with an account of 2.5 billion, actually didn’t feel much at all, it was just that the first number had one more digit.

With this capital, I should be considered financially free. It seems that my first dream of coming to Showa has been fulfilled?

"No, no, I'm still far away!"

Nagayama Naoki remembers that the biggest real estate speculator in the Showa era made a total of more than 600 billion.

"Kou Rei-san, Momo Xi-san, please prepare 2 billion yuan in Halo Studio's account." Nagayama Naoki directly signed a large check of 400 million yuan, "I may need to use it after a while.

.”

"Hey, we understand!"

The second energy crisis began in 1979, and while the U.S. stock market was still in the brokerage depression of 1982, Naoki Nagayama planned to make a cool move.

He wants to follow the path of stock investor Warren Buffett, leaving him with nowhere to go!

At this time, Akina Nakamori is also preparing for major music festivals.

After training in the practice room, I sat on the soft mat and rested for a while.

Through the relationship with Yanyin, she knew that she would definitely win one or two awards.

This is already an incredible achievement for an idol who debuted less than half a year ago.

However, it seems a little difficult to win the Best Newcomer Award at the FNS Gayo Festival this time. Akina Nakamori has a huge competitor, and that is Junko Ito of GG Agency.

There have been two consecutive hits since her debut. In comparison, Akina Nakamori’s debut song seems a bit weak.

"Are you actually going to compete with Naoki-san's idols?"

Thinking of the phone call last night, Xiao Mingcai couldn't help but puff up her cheeks, making her whole face look rounder.

"It's all Naoki-san's fault. The idols in the company are all so good! And the songs are all composed by Naoki-san."

Thinking about it, I felt a little jealous of Ito Junko's good luck, and then I thought that my "second love" was specially given to me by Naoki Nagayama, and I felt a little happy again.

"Akina-chan, what are you thinking about? You feel angry and silly at the same time."

After seeing this, figure and dance teacher Sakai Yuki asked, "Are you worried about the music festival?"

"Youki-sensei is such a great competitor~"

"Ah, is it Kyoko Koizumi? Yu Hayami? Hidemi Ishikawa?"

Sakai Yuki opened his mouth and spit out the names one by one, and Nakamori Akina felt even more pressure after hearing it, and she just lay on the soft cushion and didn't want to think about it.

"Teacher Yuki, you are putting more pressure on me."

"Hahaha, don't worry Akina-chan! In my heart, none of them are as powerful as you!"

Sakai Yuki's sincere praise made Nakamori Akina a little embarrassed, but the next sentence came right after,

"But there is one idol that is really difficult to deal with. Akina-chan is a 50-50 opponent when she meets Ito Junko~"

Akina grimaced: "I knew it."

Sakai Yuki, who was a bit sinister, smiled like a fox when he saw the student's appearance: "Since the opponent is strong, Akina-chan must work harder to defeat him!"

"Why don't you get up and practice!"

After all, Akina is a very determined girl. She was a little weak for a while because she thought of Nagayama Naoki. Now she heard the teacher's encouragement and immediately became energetic again!

"Hey, I'll practice harder!"

Yesterday’s title number was wrong, today it’s chapter 252~
