439, Finale banquet? Its obviously a Jida night banquet!

The showers that lasted for two days finally came to an end, but the clouds in the sky still blocked the sun, and the cool water vapor that had just rained had not yet turned into sweltering heat.

At this time, everyone in the studio was watching the newly released trailer in the conference room.

This is the two-minute trailer of "Hot Blood High School" that was finally made after Shuichi Itou and Masataka Komori worked overtime for two days. Even after going to Roppongi for a drink, they were dragged back to continue selecting materials!

"Genji, come on!!"

Along with these last words, there were gunshots and the sound of falling water.

The first and final story of "Hot Blood High School" begins!

The inconsistent fight, the persistence to the end, the young blood gathering in the rain, and the last roar against the sunset, make people feel excited to watch!

The two-minute preview was quickly finished, but there was no sound in the conference room for a while.

Naoki Nagayama, who had bloodshot eyes, was the first to speak: "Otomo-san, what do you think?"

Yoshimura Otomo looked at the other people in the conference room. There were director Shuichi Ichidou, Komori Masataka who was following the whole process, Kijima Kyun who was the camera, Hayano Riko who was the planner, and other crew members. He took a sip of ice water:

"Naoki-san,

Even people my age had the urge to break something just now!"

"Hahaha~"

Laughter rang out in the conference room, and everyone began to express their thoughts.

"I thought it was really the underworld executing members~"

"My heartbeat is consistent with my walking rhythm!"

“I felt it was amazing when I was on set, but I didn’t expect it would be even more shocking when it was filmed!”

Seeing everyone's excitement, Nagayama Naoki and Itou Shu glanced at each other, knowing that the effect of this notice had been tested.

"Since there are no problems, we can let them out." Nagayama Naoki looked at Yoshimura Otomo, "Otomo-san, the seats for the closing banquet in the evening have been decided, right?"

"Hey, in Shinjuku's Kabukicho, we reserved the third floor of a restaurant in Ichiban Street for filming." Yoshimura Otomo naturally had already done this, "and informed the others."

"That's good, but we must prepare a projector by then to ensure that we can play this trailer."

"Hi!"

Fangcun Dayou nodded. If there is no one in the restaurant, Shuyou Movies will naturally not be short of projection equipment.

"By the way, we discussed the promotion with Isao Morikawa from Kadokawa before."

Naoki Nagayama remembered the agreement he had reached with Isao Morikawa at the club in Roppongi with Yoshimura Otomo the day before yesterday.

"Tonight, reporters from the newspaper are also invited, right?"

"Yes, everyone with whom I have good connections has been invited." Riko Hayano replied, "Regarding the early reports and articles, we will start building momentum early tomorrow morning, and then we are still confirming the time with the TV station for the broadcast of the trailer."

"In addition, Kadokawa has also promised to provide corresponding support to "Hot Blood High School" in the programs they are currently broadcasting."

The so-called promotion is a common method used in Japanese movie promotion, revealing information about new movies in programs or films.

"That's good~"

Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Nagayama Naoki walked out of the conference room.

Seeing other employees busy in the lobby, everyone was more or less involved in the filming of "Hot Blood High School", so naturally they all went there, there were only about 30 of them~

Looking at the wrinkles in his clothes and his mental fatigue, Nagayama Naoki announced in the hall:

"Mina-san, let's take a break in the afternoon!

Everyone goes back to clean up, and come to wrap up the banquet in the evening!!

Take some time to relax today!”

As soon as he finished speaking, cheers from the employees came from the studio. The half-day vacation was for nothing and there was a banquet in the evening. Such a good thing is naturally worth being happy about.

When Yoshimura Otomo came out from behind, he couldn't help but shook his head after hearing this, and said to Itou Shuichi next to him:

"What a willful president"

Itou Shuichi smiled and patted his shoulder:

"Hahaha, this is a good president! The kind of guy who makes people work overtime every day will not be liked by everyone!"

"."

"Anyway, I have to go back and change my clothes~" Itou Shuichi walked out happily,

"See you tonight~"

Nagayama Naoki, who returned to Sansakura-in, gently pushed away Yotaro who was running towards him:

"Yingtaro, it's such a hot day, aren't you hot?"

However, the dog did not give up. Instead, it rubbed against Nagayama Naoki's side, its thick tail wagging back and forth, and hitting his leg like a small mallet.

Nagayama Naoki couldn't help but grab Yotaro's tail. It felt plump, like a sausage:

"I'm talking about Taro, I heard that ox tail and pig tail are both live meat, and the meat is very chewy. I wonder if your tail is the same?"

Although Tailang didn't understand his master's words, when his tail was held, he could only make a grievance and beg for mercy.

After teasing his silly dog, Naoki Nagayama even petted Cataro, who was lying on the sofa. He was about to go to the second floor to take a shower when he noticed that the answering machine light on the phone was flashing on.

.

"Is someone calling me?" Naoki Nagayama pressed the play button.

"Naoki-san? This is Honma Architects!" Naoya Sakata's voice came over the phone, "We have revised a version of the Kyoto garden design drawing based on your opinions.

Also, I would like to ask, when the reconstruction project starts, will Naoki-san go to the site to attend the groundbreaking ceremony?

Please, Naoki-san, please let us know your thoughts at a convenient time. Above.”

Listening to the end of the voice on the phone, Nagayama Naoki scratched his face:

"The groundbreaking ceremony? I've never seen it before~"

But it sounds interesting. If the time is convenient, then go and participate.

Taking advantage of nothing else in the afternoon, after Naoki Nagayama took a shower, he went directly to the Honma Architectural Office, shocking Takashi Honma.

"Naoki-san? Why did you come here suddenly?"

"Ah, Honma-san, I rushed over immediately after hearing the message."

Nagayama Naoki looked at the huge sand table in the middle with great interest. His courtyard model had changed.

Sure enough, the hill was covered by a small piece of green bamboo, and a small red shrine on the mountain road extended directly to the private temple on the top of the mountain.

In addition, according to the changes in the green plants on the mountain, the plants in the courtyard have also changed accordingly. At the foot of the mountain is a colorful courtyard in all seasons, on the mountain is a clean and natural temple, and the red ancient buildings at the foot of the mountain are hidden among the green plants, making the overall style more harmonious.

.

"Homma-san, I am very satisfied with the design effect. We can start preparing for construction."

Takashi Honma originally planned to introduce his thoughts to Naoki Nagayama, but he didn’t expect Naoki to agree so much.

This is just like after handing over the first draft of the design to Party A, Party A’s dad directly sent an OK.

Although it was fast and smooth, without the battle of wits and courage with the sponsor's father, Takashi Honma, a designer, always felt that something was missing.

Ah! I remembered it!

It lacks the feeling of suppressed resentment and relief that the sponsor's father said after racking his brains and iteratively revising more than a dozen versions, "I think the original version is better."

"Homma-san? Honma-san?"

"Hi?" Takashi Honma's mind was wandering for a while, and he immediately reacted, "What did Naoki-san just say?"

"I just asked when the construction of the courtyard will start?" Nagayama Naoki glanced at the first-class architect who had just been distracted a little strangely, "There is also the groundbreaking ceremony."

"Ah! Time!" Takashi Honma adjusted his glasses.

"It is expected that the construction will start at the end of August, with demolition work beginning, and then formal construction work starting in early September, when the groundbreaking ceremony will be held."

"The specific time will be slightly adjusted according to the construction situation, and we will inform Zhishu Mulang in time."

Nagayama Naoki nodded: "So, the groundbreaking ceremony?"

"Naoki-san's courtyard is very close to Sagi-mori Shrine, so you can ask the priest of Sagi-mori Shrine to help pray." Takashi Honma said, "We have already consulted, and the price is not expensive."

"It's very well thought out~"

"Hahaha~"

Now that it has been confirmed that construction will start, Takashi Honma chatted with Naoki Nagayama about the future construction time points.

Unknowingly, a few hours passed by quietly, and at the end:

"By the way, Naoki-san, what should be written on the plaque of this courtyard? The name of the courtyard?"

"Ah, this~ Let me think about it~" The plaque is right in front of the main building, and the name is at the main entrance of the wall. Nagayama Naoki's mind was smart, and he suddenly smiled,

"Homma-san, on the plaque, just write 'Auspicious Omen'!"

As for the name, I haven’t thought of it yet. When the construction is completed, I will finish it and nail it to the door.”

"." Naoya Sakata looked like he wanted to say something but didn't dare to say it~

"Naoya-san, what do you want to say?"

"Naoki-san, do you want to drive away evil spirits? With good luck, evil spirits will be dispersed."

Takashi Honma has an expression that shows that a child cannot be taught: "Naoya, this sentence comes from the ancient book "Tang Shuo" which says, 'Where the auspiciousness lies, I will be free to reach Tong'!

This means that when you are full of auspiciousness, you need to have a clear mind.

As an architectural designer, you still need to have some historical and cultural background, Naoya, you still need to learn more!"

Although the explanation was very formal, Naoki Nagayama laughed secretly beside him. "Auspicious and lucky free" means more than just the literal meaning.

This can be regarded as a prank to commemorate the past life~

Kabukicho is brightly lit at night and people are coming and going.

The colorful neon lights are flashing all the time, and the iconic plaque of "Kabukicho Ichiban Street" is emitting a tempting red light, attracting everyone who comes nearby.

Because Brother Kaede didn’t have a car yet, Naoki Nagayama went to pick him up after he came out of Honma Design Office. He still drove a Toyota Century with a lot of space:

"Brother Feng, why are you dressed so seriously when you go to the wedding banquet?"

Nagayama Naoki looked a little surprised at Nagayama Kaede in uniform.

"Isn't "High School" going to release a trailer? Aren't there still reporters? So I thought I had to dress the same as in the movie."

Nagayama Kaede looked at Imamura Fumiichi and Nakazawa Hokuto in the back row, "Oumai, don't think you two are the bosses if you sit in the back row. Didn't you come here in uniform first?"

"Boss! We just didn't think about what to wear, so we subconsciously wore uniforms!"

Imamura Fumichi said a little helplessly, he didn't expect Nagayama Kaede to wear it either.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, just think of it as a feature~ It also gives the reporter a more atmospheric feel when taking photos."

Naoki Nagayama comforted him from the front, "I'm used to it after wearing it for so long anyway, so you won't be conspicuous."

But what Nagayama Naoki didn't expect was that they were not the only ones wearing uniforms today.

Matsubara Tie is a waiter at a high-end Japanese restaurant in Kabukicho. Today, the third floor of the restaurant has been reserved by guests for a banquet, which is said to be a final banquet.

She was sent by the boss to greet the incoming guests at the door of the first floor, and took the guests who had reserved the third floor directly up.

In the evening, ordinary customers came one after another, but the dozen or so people who came first on the third floor were very normal, and they also brought some equipment. The waiter seemed to have said that he wanted to play something in the restaurant.

However, in the evening, the people who came started to act strangely.

Although they all look like young people, they all wear very strange high school uniforms.

And there are very obvious levels among these people. For example, when a man with half-long hair just walked in, many young men in uniforms were greeting him: "Genji-san!" "Genji!" "Genji boss"

!”

Listening to these names, Matsubara Qiue couldn't help but start thinking: "Are these people all members of the Yakuza group?"

I couldn't help but start to feel a little scared, because Kabukicho is a place with many Yakuza elements, and those who work here have been harassed by Yakuza personnel to some extent.

And because Matsubara Qiue was pretty good-looking, she was almost forced to go to a custom shop.

At this time, Matsubara Qiue heard a uniformed young man at the door who had not come in yet, pointing to the driveway not far away:

"That's Naoki-san's car, Naoki-san is here!"

"Wait a minute, the co-pilot is Brother Feng! Brother Feng is here too!"

Like a firecracker, several people outside became excited.

The young man ran to the third floor and said something. Soon a group of young men in uniforms lined up from the stairs on the third floor to the door on the first floor.

There are many people in Kabukicho at this time. Fortunately, the restaurant they booked is on the main road, because some side roads in Kabukicho are not accessible to traffic at all.

The location of the restaurant is obvious, because there is a group of young people in uniforms waiting eagerly at the door.

The spacious Toyota Century drives very slowly, as unhurriedly as all the big guys.

"Brother Feng, you guys go up first and I'll stop the car."

"Well, Naoki, hurry up~"

As soon as Naoki Nagayama stopped, a young man in uniform opened the door of the black car next to him and said respectfully:

"Aniji!!! You are here~"

"Yeah! There's a little traffic on the road."

After Yong Shanfeng got out of the car, a group of people subconsciously gathered around him and lowered their heads and signaled:

"Aniji!!"

Then, following Yongshan Feng's actions, many people in uniforms stood on both sides of the passage from the door to the third floor, waiting.

When Yongshan Feng passed by, they all bowed to Yongshan Feng:

“Aniji!!!”

This scene is very similar to the way a Jidao boss travels.

Nagayama Kaede was very familiar with this process. He had encountered it often when he was in Shizuoka, so he nodded gently.

With a cold face and a strong body, he looks like a big shot.

At this time, the ordinary customers on the first and second floors were all paying attention to this scene. They watched with wide eyes a group of young men in uniforms greeting one person, and they had already labeled them as Yakuza in their hearts.

As the welcome guest, Matsubara Kie was even more convinced of his thoughts at this time.

The person who booked the third floor today must be a certain young Yakuza club, and the so-called finals banquet must be just a cover.

"You must be smart when you go to the third floor to serve today."

After Nagayama Naoki parked the car, when he walked to the door, he happened to hear Matsubara Tiehui talking to other waiters,

"What is the final banquet? I think it is clearly the Jida night banquet!"

"If you accidentally offend them, you won't get any good results!"
