After selling the two gangsters named Imamura Fumichi and Nakazawa Hokuto to his cousin, Naoki Nagayama left the sumo hall.
As for whether Nagayama Kaede can convince these two fakes, that is not something Naoki Nagayama should worry about. After all, he is the third generation of the Nagayama group, so he should have some abilities.
After appeasing my cousin, I naturally went to the studio as usual.
Although generally speaking, it's not a big deal, as a boss, you always have to show your presence from time to time, although this time my presence seems to be too prominent...
"Naoki-san, you are here!" "Naoki-san, good morning!" "Naoki-san, you are still so handsome!" "Naoki-san! You are really amazing!"
The expressions of every staff member in the studio are so enthusiastic, and the eyes looking at Nagayama Naoki are full of a weird smile...
Nagayama Naoki walked into the office confused,
"Otomo-san, why are everyone so strange to me today? Did something good happen?"
Yoshimura Otomo, who was immersed in writing something, raised his head and looked at it with disdain: "Isn't it a good thing Naoki-san did?! He actually pretended to know nothing..."
"Huh? Has the scandal about me abroad spread to China?!" After a quick review, this is probably the only 'good thing' I have done recently, right?
"Scandal? What kind of scandal?" Otomo Yoshimura was confused by Nagayama Naoki's revelation. "The employees of the company knew about the news of overseas travel at the end of the year!"
Ah, it turns out to be employee benefits! No wonder every employee just looked at him as if he was seeing a bonus~
"I see..." Nagayama Naoki breathed a sigh of relief, "The crew on the set must have passed it on~"
"Yes, after Shuichi-san and the others came back to edit, the whole company soon knew about it!" Yoshimura Otomo rubbed his temples tiredly, "Because of Naoki-san, I am currently working overtime to perfect the welfare distribution plan!"
"How can we fix it? It was originally a task for the second half of the year! It's all because Naoki-san revealed the news!"
Fangcun Otomo complained, originally it was just an opinion between the bosses, so it’s okay if we don’t discuss it this year or next year~
But now that it has been announced, the follow-up specific plans need to be followed up. There will definitely be overseas travel this year!
Naoki Nagayama didn’t want to take the blame either: “There’s nothing I can do, it’s all Shuichi-san’s fault for begging me like that on the set~”
"What does shooting in Germany have to do with traveling abroad..." Fangcun Otomo muttered to himself. He was thinking about continuing to sort out related plans, but something suddenly occurred to him, "Naoki-san, you just said abroad.
Is there a scandal??”
"Ah, it's just a misunderstanding. It was maliciously arranged by the paparazzi!" Nagayama Naoki hurriedly explained, "It won't be a problem until it reaches the country!"
Yoshimura Otomo's accusing eyes made Nagayama Naoki feel uncomfortable: "Naoki-san... you know? There have never been any reports of scandals among other artists in our agency!"
"If you weren't the president, you would have been fired as an artist!"
"Haha~ Otomo-san, don't you know me yet?" Nagayama Naoki could only explain, "It's all just concocted by the media!"
"..." Yoshimura Otomo stopped talking, because he did know that his president's private social interactions were very simple, not to mention the ambiguous relationship with female celebrities, even the pets at home.
Male!
But why, there are always scandals about Naoki Nagayama? And he was also given the nickname of Naoki Naoki, a playboy?
This is worth pondering!
.......
Naoki Nagayama didn't stay in the office for long, the atmosphere was a bit heavy... He went directly to the editing room, and sure enough, Shuichi Indo and Masataka Komori were already here.
"Shuichi-san, how's the latest "Cat Eyes Three Sisters" going?"..??m
"Editing..." Yin Tang Shuichi put down his work and asked with a smile, "Naoki-san, how are you? Have you ever been complained by Otomo-san?"
"Ah..." It seems that the guy in front of me must have been told a lot, but he didn't notify me in advance, this ruthless guy!
"Shuichi-san... I must be very happy to be able to go to Germany~"
"This is all thanks to Naoki-san!" Director Yintang said proudly, praising his flash of inspiration. As expected, Naoki Nagayama was easier to talk to.
Nagayama Naoki nodded, not feeling like he was being complimented: "It's nothing. It's what a boss should do to benefit employees~"
"that's right!"
"But if we suddenly have to bear an additional expense...the company will have to increase its ability to make money!"
"Of course~"
Yintang Shuichi didn't feel anything was wrong at all and kept following him.
"If you think about it this way, "Midnight Ring", which has a small investment in shooting and is simple, is more profitable than "High School" with a large number of actors!"
"Yes... ah?" Yin Tang Shuichi reacted, "Naoki-san, didn't you say you wanted to change the filming of "The Ring"?!"
Didn't we agree that the next movie will be "Hot Blood High School"? Shuichi Yondou has been preparing for this movie for more than half a month!
"Well... there's nothing we can do~ After all, we want to pay benefits!"
Nagayama Naoki caught Yoto Shuichi's weakness and thought of teasing him again, but he didn't expect that the door of the editing room opened again, and Yoshimura Otomo walked in with a straight face.
"Naoki-san, Shuichi-san, I just learned something..."
"Eh?"
"It has something to do with the three Maoyan sisters!"
Seeing that Yoshimura Otomo didn't look like he was joking, Naoki Nagayama and Shuichi Yondou followed Yoshimura Otomo back to the office.
"What's wrong, Otomo-san, with such a heavy expression?"
"It's the Burning Agency!" Fangcun Dayou said, "I just received a call from them and they want to discuss with us the relocation of the three Maoyan sisters..."
"Relocate?" Naoki Nagayama and Shuichi Yontou were both surprised, "Did the three Maoyan sisters propose such a thing?"
"Of course not!" Fangcun Dayou was very sure, "The three Maoyan sisters retired from Burning Things before, how could they want to go back now?"
"Then... what did they say about relocation?!" Yin Tang Shuichi was a little speechless.
Yoshimura Otomo also felt a little angry: "They said that the three Maoyan sisters would take things to the next level in Burning, reorganize the Wildcats, and so on, and then they pretended to be generous and said they would pay liquidated damages and so on.
....”
"What he said is that he is a Burning agency, and if we move the three artists to them, it will bring us a lot of benefits."
"Did you take a Jiangzhi pill? Or is it a piece of brain damage?" Nagayama Naoki was amused, "Are you just openly robbing rising artists from other agencies?"
"Yes, why should we talk to them?" Yintang Shuichi didn't understand either.
Fangcun Dayou moved his mouth: "Because they are a burning place."
Burning Studio is entrenched in the entertainment industry like a giant spider. President Ikuo Subo has a complicated network of connections. It is said that he directly or indirectly controls nearly half of the artists in Japan's entertainment industry.
Nagayama Naoki was surprised: "So this time it's Shufang Ikuo's decision?"
Logically speaking, it shouldn't be done. How could someone like Ikuo Shufang use his connections to get a few female idols? He has always been modest.
"I don't know!" Yoshimura Otomo said, "But Naoki-san, you have to be prepared. If you decide to ignore it, the work of our other idols may be affected..."
If Ikuo Shubo takes action, relying on his connections in the Japanese media, Naoki Nagayama's currently most important Junko Into, Yuki Saito, and Yutaka Ozaki, who is on the rise, may be affected.
"I heard that Shu Fang Ikuo also has a certain influence in the underworld..." Otomo Yoshimura said halfway, and suddenly glanced at Nagayama Naoki, who has a well-established Yakuza bloodline, "Well, we shouldn't use this.
Worry."
"..." Nagayama Naoki rolled his eyes at Fangcun Otomo, "Otomo-san, no matter what, you can contact them first and find out what's going on there."
"Hi! I understand!"
Regarding the three Maoyan sisters, or the Wild Cat Group, Otomo Yoshimura is the one who pays the most attention to them. Hearing that the Burning Store is coming to rob them again, they are all uneasy now.
"But don't worry too much, the three Maoyan sisters will not be traded out!" Naoki Nagayama patted Yoshimura Otomo on the shoulder, "We are no longer the small company we were two years ago~"
"Hi!"
.......
Naoki Nagayama doesn’t take burning things too seriously,
On the TV station side, the Kadokawa Group will block most of their tricks, and a quarter of the share will not be given away for free; and if they want to play dirty, then the eldest brother Nagayama Kaede seems to have just wanted to plant a flag in Tokyo
Coming....
If you want to play tricks on records or the media, although it will cause some impact, Naoki Nagayama's surviving achievements can all be regarded as kings. If you can stop one, can you stop them all?
In the political world...this aspect of Shuyo Movies is indeed very weak, but using political connections to steal idols...Is Ikuo Shufang the biological son of the Prime Minister of Japan?
Do you want to intervene? Political donations and so on... Capitalism seems to be having fun in this area!
With a lot of things in his head, Naoki Nagayama stayed in the studio until the afternoon, and finally shook his head hard:
"Sigh... It's so hard to live a peaceful life... In the end, why not just go to the United States and become a Japanese-American? It seems that you can be superior to others in Japan?"
"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore! Let's think about what gift to give Akina!"
...
Sure enough, the method of diverting attention is very useful. Naoki Nagayama suddenly felt at ease after thinking of Akina Nakamori.
But another question popped up: "What kind of gifts do 18-year-old girls like?"
"Riko-chan, what kind of gift would an 18-year-old girl like for her birthday?" Nagayama Naoki caught Hayano Riko and asked.
"Huh? Are you 18?" The aunt in her thirties thought back, "That was more than ten years ago... At that time, as long as we could receive happy birthdays from our friends, we would be very happy! What if
It would be even better if you can have a big meal!”
"Is it that simple?" Naoki Nagayama forgot that 18 is not considered an adult in Japan, nor is it a particularly important anniversary.
"Ah, it's Naoki-san's sister's birthday, right?"
Naturally, Hayano Riko knew that his boss had a sister of about the same age, so he consciously brought the candidate in.
"What a good brother!"
Nagayama Naoki almost didn't react: "Eh?......Ah, yes. Hahaha~"
Yes, my little sister is also celebrating her 18th birthday! And it’s in August! One month later than Akina!
Completely forgot about it!
However, it seems that you can ask Tsuruko to get some reference from peers!
.......
Nagayama Naoki, who felt a little guilty, directly called Nagayama Tsuruko's apartment.
"Dududu~"
"Moses Moses, this is Yongshan's house." Unexpectedly, Hezi answered the phone directly.
"Tsuruko... you're actually at home? Is college life so empty? You don't stay in the apartment every day and skip school, right?" The conversation between the brother and sister always starts with complaints.
"I've finished my classes in the morning! Today is Friday! There are no classes in the afternoon! Bagani-chan!" Tsuruko didn't look guilty at all.
"Huh? Is this true in universities?"
"Haha~ Ni-chan didn't go to college, right?" Naked mockery.
Naturally, Nagayama Naoki would not be offended by such a little trick. He originally wanted to be sarcastic directly, but he remembered that he seemed to have someone to ask for, so he could only endure it:
"Tsuruko! Come to Sanzakuin in the evening~ I'll treat you to a big dinner!"
"Huh? Why are you so kind-hearted all of a sudden?" You're not angry even after being ridiculed? There's something wrong!
"...Are you in a good mood?"
"Humph..." Hezi was wary, but naturally he couldn't miss a big meal. "Since you invited me like this, I'll come over~"
.......
In the office of Burning Agency, Masato Arai put down the phone, and Etsuro Kikuchi next to him immediately asked:
"How is it? What does GG Office say?"
Arai Masato smiled helplessly: "It's just our first contact, so what can we do? There is the old fox Yoshimura Otomo over there. I have contacted him before. He is an experienced old agent. He is not so easy to convince."
"Kikuchi-san, we have to wait for the next move!"
Kikuchi Etsurou also felt that he was a little anxious, so he could only calm down by sitting down: "It must be no problem, the president has already agreed!"
Masato Arai sighed inwardly. This time, Ikuo Subo agreed because he used the influence of the idol disqualification incident some time ago to state the importance of new forms of idol groups to the president, which made the president relax.
, willing to let them do things under the name of Burning Agency, but there is no other support.
At this moment, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and Masato Oda, the head of the headquarters, walked in.
"Director Kikuchi, and Director Arai." They asked in an aggressive manner, "Do you want the artists under me to not say hello to me?"
The principle of winner takes all is more realistic in the Japanese workplace. After two years of adaptation, Etsuro Kikuchi has fully understood his position:
"Boss Oda, Ayano Fukuhara and Saka Nonaka are just idols who are about to expire. I just want to take a few with me when I leave this time as a foundation for the new agency."
The tone is calm and humble.
"That's my person too!" Shoto Oda said angrily, "No one can take him away without my consent!"
Masato Arai couldn't see his former boss being treated like this: "Headmaster, the president has agreed!"
"Are you using the president to pressure me?" Masato Oda glanced at Masato Arai. This newly promoted minister actually said yes for Etsuro Kikuchi, "Minister Arai is indeed a person who values friendship!"
"The headmaster has given me too much praise."
Shoto Oda didn't say much, but said to Etsurou Kikuchi: "Kikuchi-san, no matter what, you owe me once!"
This old guy who is going out to start a business may have some trump cards. It would not be a loss to exchange two has-been artists for a favor.
Kikuchi Etsurou's face darkened, but he also knew that if Oda, the head of the department, made trouble, the chance of turning around might be gone. In the end, he nodded slowly:
"Yes, I owe you a favor!"
"Ha, that's good~" After getting the desired result, Oda Masato was happy, "Kikuchi-san, I'm optimistic about you! I'm just a daddy!"
When there were only two people left in the office, Etsurou Kikuchi sighed:
