The morning sun is the last stubborn thing in summer, because when it shines on the face, there is only brightness but no heat.
The weather forecast has said that the temperature in Tokyo is about to drop to more than 20 degrees. The heat that should have still been there was all washed away by the heavy rain yesterday evening.
Naoki Nagayama was stretching in the courtyard, breathing in the fresh air filled with light fresh air. Next to him, Taro Yataro also stretched his body gracefully, yawned, and then waggled his tail and took the dog leash.
come out.
"You are so attentive today, do you have some intention in your heart?!" Naoki Nagayama rubbed the dog's head vigorously, "Do you want to see your little girlfriend early?"
Yotaro looked like he didn't understand anything. He spread his legs and rubbed the dog leash into Naoki Nagayama's hand. On the other side, Nyaotaro, who was lying on the cat climbing frame, cast a look of disdain.
"Meow! (Lick the dog!)"
While the sun was not shining brightly, Naoki Nagayama walked through the small park next to him with his dog. However, the Shiba Inu he saw last night was no longer there. Yotaro walked around in the vegetation several times before leaving with a look of disappointment.
come out.
As the owner of this guy, Naoki Nagayama could only comfort himself:
"As I said before, your little girlfriend is also someone's puppy. She won't just come out and be tricked by a dog! She just slipped out accidentally yesterday."
"嘤嘤嘤~`~" Ying Tailang rested his head on Nagayama Naoki's thigh, and actually started acting coquettishly.
What does it feel like when a fierce dog acts coquettishly? Even Naoki Nagayama can’t stand it:
"Okay, okay, now that we have confirmed that she is nearby, we will meet her sooner or later. I will take you to nearby dog parks on weekends. I will definitely find her!"
After comforting the dog, Naoki Nagayama continued his morning run with him, saying hello to familiar neighbors along the way. The owner of a newsstand on the road saw Naoki Nagayama and said hello:
"Yongshan-san, you came out to sneak around Taro again~"
"Hey, let's go for a morning jog. Yokota-san is very early today too!"
Everyone was just acquaintances, and we just said hello and planned to leave. In a social atmosphere like Japan where people don’t bother others, it’s normal for people who don’t like to socialize to be unfamiliar with neighbors who have been with them for decades.
Nagayama Naoki's Yamazakura-in is a single-family house, and there are no residents around it, so no one even comes to give gifts. The owner of the newsstand did not recognize that the handsome young man in front of him was a certain star.
But before leaving today, Naoki Nagayama took a look at the newspaper. There was a big headline on the front page of an entertainment newspaper, and he saw the words "Naoki Huaxin"
Nagayama Naoki's heart moved, and he took out the change he had used to buy water on the road from his pocket: "Yokota-san, please give me a copy of this newspaper."
"Ah, hi!" Kenta Yokota was a little surprised, but still enthusiastically picked up a newspaper.
There is a report in the middle of the homepage - "Real Eyewitness: Huaxin Naoki Meets New Love Again?"
Such a title is accompanied by a photo of Naoki Nagayama holding Chiko Aoyama's arm. Although the woman is coded, people familiar with it can recognize it at a glance.
Moreover, the angle of the photo was chosen very well, showing off Chikoko's beautiful figure. Naoki Nagayama and her seemed to be very close.
"Is it really the guy named Matsuzawa Shinnosuke from yesterday?"
Naoki Nagayama actually expected the photo to be taken, but he didn't expect it to be captured so well. And since it has been sold to a media, other entertainment newspapers and periodicals should also receive it, and some rogue tabloids pursuing traffic may even
Can't even type a code.
It seems that this scandal will not go away.
But what worries him the most is:
"But now, how should I explain to Mr. Qingshan!!"
Although he was so worried, Naoki Nagayama still passed by the Qingshan store with Taro Taro:
"Old man Qingshan~"
"Naoki Nagayama!!" Sure enough, the old man had already seen the newspaper and spread it on the counter, "What do you think is going on?!"
Alas. There was no way to escape, and with the mentality of a dead pig not afraid of being scalded by boiling water, Naoki Nagayama said helplessly:
"Well, I was just photographed!"
"Just because I was photographed??" Nobu Aoyama's voice became louder, "You guy, do you know how big an impact this has on Chikoko-chan?!"
(At this time, Chiko Aoyama was surrounded by a group of girls in school: "Chiko-chan, are you really dating Huaxin Naoki?" "Is he really that handsome?" "Did he take you to a movie?"
"How far has it progressed? Have you kissed?" "Ah, I really envy Chikoko-chan!!!")
Nagayama Naoki scratched his face in embarrassment: "I didn't expect that I was caught on camera just for picking up Chikoko-chan~"
"I just told you to stay away from Chikoko!" Qingshan Xin said angrily, "Now it's better, Chikoko will be isolated by her classmates!"
(At this time, Chikoko was politely rejecting the classmates who came in front of her: "No, I can't introduce Naoki-san to you!" "There are no other handsome guys in the entertainment industry!" "There is no channel for celebrities' autographs!")
"Tell me what should be done!!"
Nagayama Naoki smiled helplessly, but then he had a flash of inspiration. Since he couldn't explain it, he might as well just let it go:
"Mr. Qingshan, Chiko-chan is seventeen years old, right? Since this is the case, why not take the opportunity to make your debut directly!"
"Nani??" My granddaughter was just caught having an affair with you, and now you actually let her go out?
"Let's take advantage of this wave of popularity~" Nagayama Naoki's mind opened up, and ideas continued to flow, "We can start with some popularity, starting with idols~"
Naoki Nagayama and Nobu Aoyama talked about the general arrangement. They were about to graduate from high school anyway, so they asked Chiko Aoyama to try for a year first. If she was unwilling or unsuitable, she could go to college.
"this"
After hearing this, Aoyama Shin actually felt a little moved in his heart, because Chikoko had been given postcards by talent scouts before, and she herself seemed to have thoughts about entering the entertainment industry.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! And now if an acquaintance like Naoki Nagayama takes him along, it seems to be very good for the future of his granddaughter.
"I still need to discuss this matter with Chikeko and her parents." Aoyama Nobu ultimately wanted to leave the decision to Chikeko herself.
"Haha, then I will wait for the good news from the old man~"
"." Looking at Nagayama Naoki's handsome smile, Aoyama Nobu had an inexplicable feeling that his granddaughter was about to be robbed by this person, "Okay, you guy, hurry up and leave!"
Returning to Yamasakura-in, Nagayama Naoki put Yotaro in the yard, took a shower, and then opened the convertible and came to the studio.
Sure enough, the employees looked at Naoki Nagayama a little strangely today, and they also had strange smiles when they greeted him.
After walking to the office, Yoshimura Otomo and Itou Shuichi were both inside, seeming to be chatting about something.
"Ah, our playboy Naoki is here!" Itou Shuichi immediately laughed when he saw Nagayama Naoki. "Naoki-san, do you have to have a scandal before every movie is released?"
"." Nagayama Naoki was speechless. It was obviously all caused by the media, but why did it seem like I spent my own money to promote the scandal.
"Who knows what those reporters were thinking."
Itou Shuichi laughed: "Yes, it's free publicity~ By the way, who is the target of your scandal this time? Looks familiar?"
"She is the granddaughter of a close friend. Her name is Aoyama Chikoko." Naoki Nagayama did not hide anything and said directly to Otomo Yoshimura, "By the way, Otomo-san, Chikoko-chan seems to be interested in the entertainment industry, and her own conditions are also good.
She is very good. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I plan to let her make her debut in our agency."
"You actually want to take advantage of the popularity of the scandal to debut?" Otomo Yoshimura was still watching the joke, but he was a little surprised when he heard this, "Naoki-san, you really have a way! Even the scandal can be used to the extreme."
Nagayama Naoki didn't want to talk to the two people in the office: "Anyway, I think there is no problem, and then prepare for advance training and so on~"
"Hey~ I understand~" It was a joke, but the matter still had to be done, and Yoshimura Otomo agreed.
After explaining this matter, Nagayama Naoki asked: "What were you talking about just now?"
"About the movie promotion plan." Shuichi Itou excused himself, "We plan to carry out preview screenings in several big cities, from Tokyo to Yokohama, Izu, Nagoya, Osaka, and Kyoto."
Naoki Nagayama remembered the time when he was promoting his first movie, how he stayed up for days and nights without sleeping. He immediately felt a chill and wanted to run away.
However, after hearing about Kyoto, I suddenly remembered that construction on his garden in Kyoto seemed to be about to begin. Takashi Honma had asked several times about the groundbreaking ceremony.
"Shuichi-san, I can go to the preview in Kyoto," Naoki Nagayama said.
"Huh? Naoki-san wants to participate in the follow-up promotion?" Since the first film, Shuichi Itou and Otomo Yoshimura have already agreed that Naoki Nagayama will only participate in the promotion of the first preview. "This is really a big surprise."
"I happened to have something to do in Kyoto~" Nagayama Naoki smiled, "Just a drop-in."
"Roar?"
Seeing the expressions of Itou Shuichi and Yoshimura Otomo, Nagayama Naoki had to come up with an excuse: "I didn't show it to you last time. Isn't there a courtyard over there, which is very suitable for the scene of "The Ring"? This
Stop by next time to finalize it.”
""Midnight Ring"?" After hearing about this movie, Itouxiu became excited for a moment, "Has Naoki-san started preparations? Has the protagonist been decided?"
"As for the protagonist, not yet." I originally sent an invitation to Tanaka Yuko, but she didn't seem to have called back during this period, so Naoki Nagayama decided to ask later.
"However, the real protagonist this time is actually Sadako. Is there anyone who can play Sadako?" Nagayama Naoki thought for a while, and he seemed to have no suitable actors here.
However, even though she is a terrifying character, in the memory of the future, all the actors who have played Sadako seem to be very beautiful actresses.
Some people even commented that if Sadako, played by these actresses, climbed out of the TV after washing her face, they would definitely give her a very warm welcome!
"Sadako," Yoshimura Otomo and Itou Shuichi also began to think about it. Due to the high requirements of the role, neither of them had any good candidates.
Nagayama Naoki temporarily interrupted the two of them: "Let's think about the candidates slowly. Anyway, it will be a long time before filming. At least it will be after October."
However, Itou Shuichi was still very interested: "Then let's talk about other aspects first~"
Taking Naoki Nagayama along, we began to discuss the preparations for "The Ring" and the future filming situation.
This conversation lasted all morning.
At noon, Nagayama Naoki did not eat in the studio because he was afraid that Itou Shuichi would drag him to talk about movies.
After driving back to Yamasakura-in, I made myself a delicious lunch and took a short rest.
When it was past two o'clock, Nagayama Naoki called Akina's pager. After waiting for a few minutes, the phone next to the sofa rang.
"Moses Moses, is this Yamazakurain?"
"." Are you so playful? "Hi, this is Yamazakuin, who are you looking for?"
"Hi, I'm looking for Taro Ying. Is he here?" The voice in the microphone said something strange.
Naoki Nagayama laughed: "What a coincidence, Taro is playing with his girlfriend and won't be here for the time being!"
"oh?"
Akina in the Taitung District apartment suddenly changed her perspective. On the newspaper on the small tea table, the words Hanaxin Naoki were clearly visible. Akina didn't mean to be angry, but found it very interesting.
"It turns out that Taro Taro also has a new girlfriend! I didn't even know about it~"
"Yes, yes, I only found out about it yesterday! But if Taro Ying is not here, would you like to find someone else?"
"Then we have no choice but to find the remaining person from Yamazakuin~" Akina finally couldn't hold it back, "Haha, Naoki-san is really good at pretending."
"No, no, I just learned a little bit from someone."
Nagayama Naoki said modestly, and then he really started to ask,
"Has Akina arrived in Tokyo?"
"Well, I came back in the morning and participated in interviews and meetings." Akina Nakamori turned around and looked at the clock on the bedside. "I returned to the apartment after lunch, about one o'clock."
Have you gone back to the apartment?
The girlfriend he hadn't seen for more than a week has come back. When Naoki Nagayama heard the news, the longing in his heart suddenly came out. He felt as if Akina's shadow was everywhere in front of him, and his desire to see Akina was like an accelerator.
, make the blood active,
"I'll go see you, okay?"
The simple words made Akina Nakamori's heartbeat at the other end seem to pause for a moment, suppressed for a while and then burst out suddenly. A wave of heat spread from her chest to her head, and her cheeks turned a little red.
"Okay~"
"wait for me!"
Akina Nakamori stayed for a while after hanging up the phone, and then she remembered to tidy up the room a little.
However, when he was putting away the newspapers on the low table, he smiled slyly, then generously placed the newspapers in the most conspicuous position and smoothed them out~
