When taking a walk that night, Naoki Nagayama was a little confused, because Shuichi Itou mentioned the filming of "Love Letter" intentionally or unintentionally during the day, which made him very nervous, and he could only use all his strength to edit to numb himself.
But when I think about it now, I feel like something is wrong.
He said to the big dog sniffing in the grass next to him: "Yang Tailang, I always feel like I'm being plotted against!"
"Woof! (Yes)"
"Do you think I'm taking this matter too seriously?" Naoki Nagayama rambled, "Obviously I'm just going to make a movie, but I'm the boss of the company! And once the movie is released, it doesn't create profits for the company.
?”
"Even if there is a suspicion of dating Akina through filming a movie, then what's the big deal~"
"Woof woof woof woof (yes, yes!)"
After gaining recognition from his dog, Naoki Nagayama felt much more relaxed:
"Well, it's really not worth it to make yourself work too hard for this kind of thing! I'll edit it later tomorrow! I think it's okay for Taro Taro, right?"
"Woof!"
The dog, which was happily wandering around in the grass next to the sidewalk, was suddenly pulled on the leash and could only look at its owner with doubtful eyes.
From the very beginning, I have been blabbering without knowing what I am talking about, and I still understand the meaning of this dog casually. Is this really crazy?
When you feel good, your perspective on things changes.
The originally dark and lonely zelkova trees on both sides of the road looked a little gentle under the warm yellow street lights. They swayed their leafless branches under the disturbance of the night wind, as if they were quietly waiting for the coming of winter.
Most of the grass that Yingtaro was running around was dry, and the crunching sound when he stepped on it was a bit relaxing.
The shops along the street emitted relatively bright lights, as if they wanted to entertain the sparse pedestrians.
Taking a breath of the cool autumn breeze, Nagayama Naoki couldn't help but sigh: "I feel relaxed now, and I can actually see such a lonely scenery as full of positive energy."
The big dog beside him didn't listen to his master's words at all, he just buried his head and pulled Nagayama Naoki forward.
Not long after, we actually arrived at the familiar Qingshan store again.
"Mr. Aoyama, hasn't the store closed yet?" Nagayama Naoki looked at the small flower garden next to the door. Three pots of imperial chrysanthemums were blooming brightly, exactly the same as when he first met Aoyama Nobu. "The imperial chrysanthemums at the door,
Are they the same pots from before?”
"Of course! They drive very well!" Nobu Aoyama walked out from behind the counter, "I'm going to take them to the competition this year too!"
"Ha, I will definitely win the prize this time!" Naoki Nagayama complimented casually, and then looked at the tall old man, "Mr. Aoyama, do you feel a lot more deserted after Chikoko-chan debuted?"
"It's not such an exaggeration!" Aoyama Nobu invited Nagayama Naoki to the cafe in the store, "Chikoko will still go home to stay at night, you can see it every day!"
Ah, yes, Chiko Aoyama has a home in the center of Tokyo, so the office only needs to pick her up every day. There is no need to live in an idol’s employee apartment~
"Hahaha, that's right." Nagayama Naoki replied with a smile, "However, no one will look after the old man's store from time to time~"
"At worst, it's closed when I go out." Anyway, this is my own shop. It's normal for a handicraft shop not to be open for half a year and to be open for three years after opening.
While sipping the fine tea, I chatted with Nobu Aoyama about the development of Aoyama Chikoko.
When he learned that the sales of Chiko Aoyama's new song were very good and the popularity was rising, Nobu Aoyama had a smile on his face.
"If that's the case, will Chiko-chan become an idol like Yamaguchi Momoe in the future?"
"Well, old man, your goals are too high!" Nagayama Naoki was speechless. If you want to be like Yamaguchi Momoe, you must have the right time, right place, and the right people.
"Silly tape, I believe in Naoki-san!" Nobu Aoyama, an old guy, looked at Naoki Nagayama with eyes full of wisdom.
Now, the pressure is on Nagayama Naoki~
"Hi, I have time!"
"Well, no problem!"
Naoki Nagayama returned to Sansakurain and received a call from Kuniji Morikawa from home. He was so busy all day today that he actually forgot to return the call~
"Then Naoki-san, please come to Shogakukan tomorrow afternoon. In addition to participating in the selection, the company also wants to communicate about the film and television adaptation rights of several of your books." Kuniji Morikawa said at the end.
"Film and TV adaptation rights? How many books?" Nagayama Naoki was curious, "Did you get so many copyrights in one go? Which company is it?"
"It's Toho." Kuniji Morikawa said directly.
"Ha, it turns out that Dongho, who is very wealthy, is so rich."
Naoki Nagayama agreed to meet him tomorrow afternoon, and continued to chat about something else before hanging up the phone.
Seeing that it was not too late, Nagayama Naoki simply tried to dial Nakamori Akina's number.
"Moses Moses, this is the Nakamori family~" Sure enough, I heard the message prompt.
"Akina, this is Naoki Nagayama. If you are here, please listen to the call." Naoki Nagayama understood the characteristics of his little girlfriend and said directly.
Sure enough, the phone was picked up directly:
"Naoki-san!"
"As expected!" Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "Didn't you train until midnight today?"
"How can it be possible until midnight every day? It's so inhumane!" Akina Nakamori said in disgust, "But many end-of-year programs have been recorded, and several large-scale variety shows have entered the final recording stage, so there are less places to rush.
A lot.”
"Yes, it's already November." Nagayama Naoki sighed, "Another year is about to pass~"
"Why does Naoki-san sound like an old man?" There was a smile in the tone on the other end of the phone, "He is obviously only twenty years old."
"I always feel that a lot has happened this year." Nagayama Naoki told his girlfriend about his busy work, "It makes me not have a rest until the end of the year. By the way, has Akina watched "Dusk Meow Meow"?
It was only aired two days ago and it’s about to be recorded again.”
"Ah, yes!" Akina said excitedly, "I specially asked Fang Zesang to record it and watch it! It's really interesting. It's very different from the auditions I did at that time."
"One is to choose the best one, and the other is to choose the one with characteristics." Naoki Nagayama concluded, "In short, idols in the future may become more and more popular. The idol industry should also flourish.
It’s getting worse~”
"What Naoki-san said is so scary! I've only been an idol for more than a year, but am I about to lose my job?" Akina Nakamori didn't have such a keen perception, and thought Naoki Nagayama was just talking casually.
"Haha, anyway, Akina just needs to be ready to transform from an idol to a powerful one~"
"I am originally a strong person!" came the arrogant tone from the microphone~
"Hey~ Akina-sama, that's what you said!"
From here on, Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori chatted here and there until early in the morning. However, they did not agree on a time to meet because the two would meet at the FNS Gayo Festival later.
The weather became colder and colder after entering November, and Naoki Nagayama saw hoarfrost on the windows.
In the morning, he took his time and made a meal of porridge and side dishes. After the steaming porridge made his whole body warm, Naoki Nagayama drove the Toyota Century to the studio. At this time, the convertible was a little cold.
~
"Good morning, Zhi Shusang~" Xing Jiahua at the front desk greeted her with a smile as usual.
"Hua Jiang, good morning!"
"Naoki-san, Shuichi-san has come to ask three times!"
".Uh. I know~"
After pushing open the office door, Yoshimura Otomo said in surprise: "Naoki-san, why is it a little late today?"
"I usually come at this time~" Nagayama Naoki said casually, I'm the boss, do I still have to check attendance when I come?
Yoshimura Otomo was confused by this lazy attitude. Wasn't he very diligent yesterday? Moreover, he and Shuichi-san thought that this diligent attitude would be maintained until the end of the year!
"But...it's not over there in the editing room...?" Yoshimura Otomo hesitated.
"Ah, editing work! Yesterday I sorted out the content to be edited during this period, and then there will be boring repetitive work ~ so there is no need to come here so early."
Anyway, it’s all about cutting, gluing, cutting, and gluing, with Masataka Komori and Shuichi Itou here!
At this time, Itou Shuichi also opened the door of the office, and his eyes lit up when he saw Nagayama Naoki: "Naoki-san, you're here! Why is it a little late today? It doesn't matter, let's start working right away.
!There is still a lot of content waiting!”
"Well, there's no need to worry, Shuichi-san, I'll definitely make it in time for Christmas." Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "I want to talk to Otomo-san about something first."
"It's about Chikako Aoyama." Nagayama Naoki took out a piece of music score from his pocket, which he took out from the music library in the morning. "I thought about it and decided to give her some momentum at the beginning of the year."
I was asked to do it by my grandpa, so I have to try my best.
"Huh?" Otomo Yoshimura took it and took a look, ""ありがとう(Thank you)", is it a new song?"
"Hey, this is a song I just wrote. I think it has great potential to be popular."
Nagayama Naoki said with a slight boast, otherwise Yoshimura Otomo would know that he still has a lot of songs,
"Otomo-san, please leave it to Komuro-kun and tell him that this song is suitable for a more ethereal voice.
From now to next year, there are less than two months left, so Chikoko-chan still has enough time to practice this song."
Yoshimura Otomo is a bit speechless. A few days ago, Komuro Tetsuya was asked to take over Chiko Aoyama's second album, and today he sent the title song to Naoki-san. You are a bit fast!
And when was it created? Why didn’t I know? Was it written in a notebook?! The psychology of a middle-aged Mediterranean man raised a series of questions.
"Hey, I understand. I will arrange for Chikoko-chan to practice as soon as possible." Yoshimura Otomo said with a serious look on his face, "The second album will also speed up the process for Komuro-kun."
Nagayama Naoki smiled: "Ha, please Otomo-san."
Itou Shuichi, who had been waiting for a while, thought this was what happened: "Naoki-san, it's over? Are we going to the editing room?"
"Ah, yes! There is nothing else for now."
Nagayama Naoki stood up and prepared to work seriously in the remaining hour or so, because he
"By the way, Shuichi-san. I'm going to Shogakukan in the afternoon. There's a selection thing that seems to have to be discussed in person. There's also an adaptation thing. So maybe it will be just you and Masataka-kun in the afternoon!"
As Nagayama Naoki spoke, he quickly opened the door and walked towards the editing room. Shuichi Itou, who was originally going to follow, slowed down a bit after hearing the news. He looked at Yoshimura Otomo in confusion and looked at him with his eyes.
ask:
"Didn't you say you could work actively for a month? Why are you back to your original state in just one day?!"
Fangcun Otomo also just found out: "Don't panic now, maybe something really happened today, let's talk about it later!"
"Xiu Yisang, why didn't you come?"
Nagayama Naoki noticed that Itou Shuichi had not followed, so he opened the door again, and saw the two of them looking at each other, beaming and passionate.
"Eh? What kind of plane are you and Otomo-san doing?"
"Hahaha, I thought I dropped something." Itou Shuichi quickly said haha, and continued to drag Nagayama Naoki to the editing room.
Yoshimura Otomo, who was left in the office, looked suspicious: "Naoki, did you notice something? Or is today's incident just a coincidence?"
He looked at the music score in his hand again: "It can't be that this song is a special excuse, right?"
An hour passed by in a flash, and Naoki Nagayama went directly to the office building of Shogakukan without even having lunch at the company.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Teacher Naoki?" Mitsuko Nishihara's eyes lit up at the front desk, "Didn't Teacher Naoki make an appointment to come in the afternoon?"
The talented and handsome teacher Naoki Nagayama is here! He walks towards me! Sure enough, I switched classes with Reiki Nozawa today!
"Ah, I happened to be nearby, so I came here first." You can't say that you don't want to continue working. "Is Bunji-san here?"
"That's it." Mitsuko Nishihara seemed to believe it easily, "Teacher Naoki, Editor Morikawa is upstairs, I will contact him right away!"
As she spoke, the little girl used the phone at the front desk to call Kuniji Morikawa and explained the arrival of Naoki Nagayama.
"Teacher Naoki, please wait a moment. Editor Morikawa said he will be here soon."
"Hey, trouble~"
"Where, where."
After standing at the front desk for a few minutes and looking at the magazines on display, Nagayama Naoki felt a little uncomfortable because Nishihara Mitsuko always looked at him with a kind of admiration and squinting eyes.
It's okay to be admired by a little girl, and it might even increase your vanity, but what's going on with those leering eyes?
Although Mitsuko Nishihara is not ugly, Naoki Nagayama always feels a bit dangerous when he is stared at by such lustful eyes!
This little girl won't pounce on me.
Fortunately, Morikawa Kunji appeared within a few minutes: "Naoki-san, did you come here so early?"
"Hi, because it's nearby." Nagayama Naoki breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward to shake hands and asked, "How are you doing, Bunji-san?"
"Hahaha, thanks to you, everything is fine!"
Kuniji Morikawa can be said to be prosperous now. The author under his name has won the Naoki Prize. Not to mention himself, he has also received awards. The president of Shogakukan has praised him, and now he is sprinting for the Yoshikawa Eiji Literary Award!
There are also merchants who want to purchase the adaptation rights!
Kuniji Morikawa said with a smile: "Naoki-san hasn't had lunch yet? Let's go out to eat and talk!"
"Haha, how embarrassing is this."
Naoki Nagayama swore that he had no intention of having a meal with the editor this time!
