The warm sunshine has been shining on early risers since early in the morning, making people intoxicated by its warmth.
The sky was even more clear and clean, as if someone had used detergent to clean it so hard that not even a harmless cloud stain could be seen.
Naoki Nagayama arrived at the studio early, greeted the employees energetically, and then went into the editing room.
There is not much editing work left for "Love Letter", it's time to go all out and finish it!
But just over an hour later, Yoshimura Otomo came in again and disturbed them: "Naoki-san?"
"Hi?"
At Yoshimura Otomo's signal, Shuichi Itou and Naoki Nagayama both walked out, "What's wrong?"
“It’s time for very important work!”
"?"
"The package of the year-end bonus!" Yoshimura Otomo said, "Guangrei-chan and I have already withdrawn the year-end bonus in batches, and it is in the safe in the office!"
"60 million in cash?"
"Hi!"
Suddenly I feel that the office has become important!
After hearing this, Naoki Nagayama and Shuichi Itou had nothing to say. This is indeed what the boss should do.
Let Kyū Kijima and Masataka Komori continue to deal with the end of the editing. They followed Otomo Yoshimura back to the office and then locked the door.
The envelopes have been prepared, and the list of year-end bonuses has been placed on the table. After opening the safe, stacks of Shotoku Taishi are neatly stacked together... Sure enough, the impact of cash is still there!
"Naoki-san, let's get started!" Yoshimura Otomo said.
Although it was a bit shocking to see so much cash, the process of packaging the year-end bonus was very arduous. First, the money was counted according to the list, and then it was put into the envelope. Finally, you had to write your name on the envelope to seal it...
"Otomo-san, next year, why don't we let the finance department take care of the encapsulation matter..." After Naoki Nagayama filled a dozen envelopes, he became a little irritated.
"If the finance is directly encapsulated, some problems may arise..."
There was no electronic transfer in this era, and even wages were paid in cash. It was okay to go directly to the finance office to receive wages. However, the year-end bonus was relatively large, and it was a way to show the boss's status, so
It is best to send it by hand.
"We might as well use money orders or the like... cash, it would be too troublesome~"
Yoshimura Otomo said: "If you use a money order, there will be no thickness without this kind of cash!"
As he spoke, he also lifted up an envelope. The thick stack looked very powerful: "Such a pressing feeling will give employees a huge sense of happiness! It will also make employees feel more grateful...
When other employees see this kind of thickness, they will also have full confidence in the company, which will make the company unite as one!"
As an old man from the Showa era, I have a deep understanding of this, and from a management perspective, it does have some benefits.
"..."
Naoki Nagayama couldn't refute that in modern companies of later generations, year-end bonuses and wages are just a series of numbers, and there is indeed a lack of sense of ritual.
"However, when there are more and more people in the future, the three of us will definitely not be able to handle it!"
Yi Tangxiu smiled and said: "At that time, we can think of other ways! If it is Shuyou Group, the president of the branch will be responsible for the delivery~"
He seemed to agree with this method of hand-delivery... Alas, this is the characteristic of the times!
...
In the afternoon, I came to Sumida District after a long absence.
In the era before the Skytree was built, this was just a residential area with traditional Kanto characteristics. Naoki Nagayama still remembers that not far away was the sumo wrestling hall where his cousin Kaede Nagayama lived.
However, he did not turn the steering wheel and drove towards the sumo wrestling hall. He was not here to see his cousin today, he was here to help his girlfriend move.
According to the address specified in the previous phone call, Naoki Nagayama arrived at a high-rise building not far from the Sumida Ward Office. Akina's place this time was on the 11th floor.
This apartment was obviously very strictly managed. Under the watchful eye of the administrator, Naoki Nagayama called Akina on the 11th floor at the gate and was able to enter the building.
"Naoki-san!"
Akina opened the door with a bright smile on her face, and then diligently took the ingredients and bags in her hands.
Yes, Naoki Nagayama also provides door-to-door food delivery service~
After taking off her coat and scarf at the entrance, she put on thick slippers and walked onto the wooden floor indoors. Akina, who was wearing a woolen sweater, had already put the ingredients away and was standing in front of her to help organize them.
Folds in clothes.
He walked forward gently, hugged his girlfriend, and then carefully looked at her beautiful cheeks:
"Why do I feel like Akina's hair has grown a lot since I haven't seen you for a few days~"
"Hair grows fast..." Akina said softly, "In about two months, it will reach the neck~"
Naoki Nagayama gave a wicked smile: "Oh? To the neck? Is it here?"
He hugged the girl in his arms tightly, put his face to her swan-like neck and rubbed it gently.
"Ah...haha...Naoki Sanya~It's so itchy~" Akina Nakamori shrank her neck, but her body was hugged tightly, and she could only press her head against her boyfriend.
Nagayama Naoki felt Akina's soft hair on his face, and then her delicate cheeks... Immediately afterwards, the warm breath of skin-to-skin contact filled the two people. Unconsciously, Nagayama Naoki kissed him.
Girlfriend's lips.
His breathing gradually became faster, and the blood in his body seemed to be heating up. For a moment, Nagayama Naoki's restless hands were already free of the delicate body in his arms.
"Dah!"
At the critical moment, Akina held down Naoki Nagayama's hand that had reached into her clothes. The rosy-faced girl gasped slightly and said shyly, "Naoki-san, it's daytime now!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! What about during the day... isn't it more exciting...
Such thoughts came to Nagayama Naoki's mind, but when he thought about it again, his little girlfriend was only 18 years old after all...She was still young, so she still couldn't accept such a standard!
"No way..."
Nagayama Naoki looked at his little girlfriend, but Akina's eyes were not only ashamed, but also filled with persistence.
"Dah~~~"
"Okay then..." Naoki Nagayama kissed him on the cheek a few times before letting go of the beauty in his arms, "Let's note it down for now..."
"Naoki-san is a big pervert! Hahaha~"
Feeling the respect of her boyfriend, Akina showed a naughty smile, then happily hugged Nagayama Naoki's arm and pulled him into her new home.
Nagayama Naoki walked into the living room and looked around. This time it was a two-bedroom and one-living room structure. A large TV, a dressing table, a sofa, and other household appliances had been placed in the living room.
The open kitchen and dining room are integrated into one, making the space more open and a higher level than the previous apartment.
I walked to the window of the living room and looked out. The wide Sumida River branched off into a smaller tributary not far ahead, the Oyoko River, which flowed around Sumida River Park and Nakamori Akina's apartment. The converging rivers are in winter.
The sparkling waves under the warm sun, coupled with the greenery of Sumida River Park, make people feel relaxed and happy.
"The apartments are getting more and more upscale! River view rooms..."
Akina snuggled next to her: "Yes, Fang Zesang chose several options, and I fell in love with this place at first sight."
"Has all the furniture been delivered?"
"Yeah~" Akina looked at her boyfriend again, with a smile on her face again, "It just needs a little adjustment..."
Ah, this is the role of a boyfriend!
.......
Warner Pioneer Headquarters Building, Ming Xingfang walked vigorously into the office of Ming Nai's Publicity Department.
"Fusana-san?" Tanaka Yoshiaki noticed his arrival and was very surprised, "Why did you come here suddenly? Is Akina-chan here too?"
"Akina-chan has a half-day off today and has to move..." Akikofusa explained, "I came here today because I want to bring this record to Yoshiaki-san."
"What record?" Tanaka Yoshiaki took it and knew it was a demo tape, and he was a little curious.
"It was sent over by Shuyou Pictures, the record of Akina-chan singing "Snow Flower"." Akiko Fubo explained the source, "Originally, it was meant to be given to Akina-chan for trial listening, but after listening to it, we decided to
Send it over to Warner Pioneer for everyone to listen to."
"???"
Tanaka Yoshiaki was a little confused, "Isn't this a record specially produced by Shuyou Pictures? Although it is said to be in our name, the decision-making power rests with them... What's the use of showing it to us?"
Despite what he said, Tanaka Yoshiaki still put the audition tape into the player.
"Because it may be released at the same time as Akina-chan's "North Wing", we think we still need to communicate with everyone at Warner Bros."
Akiko Fusa was talking, the player had already played a moving melody, and then came Akina's soft and powerful singing voice... The entire Warner Pioneer office fell silent for a while, and everyone listened carefully to this song.
"Snow Flower".
First the soft version of singing, and then the gentle version of voice. The same song has two completely different feelings. People are amazed by Akina Nakamori's powerful expressiveness, but in the hearts of professional producers, they admire record production even more.
human level.
When the player automatically tripped, Tanaka Yoshiaki asked with some difficulty: "This is a record produced under the leadership of Naoki Nagayama, right?"
"Hi, Naoki-san made it himself."
Akiko Fusa also did not hide that Naoki Nagayama's skills in record production are not inferior to his lyrics and composition.
Almost all of the debut songs of several idols under his name were produced by Naoki Nagayama, and both sales and Oricon rankings are at a stable first-class level.
Tanaka Yoshiaki felt that he already knew the purpose of Akiyuki Fusunori's visit. The release dates of the two songs may conflict, so the idol's song promotion and promotion on various music channels will naturally have to be focused.
"When will this record be released? What requests did Naoki Nagayama make?"
Akiko Fusa also had some doubts at this time: "Naoki-san didn't set a definite time. He only said that when it snows, it will be released... In addition, there are no requirements for publicity."
"?" Tanaka Yoshiaki was puzzled, "He doesn't need Akina-chan to promote?"
"Hi." Akikofusa nodded, "There is no need to publicize it before sending it out... These are Naoki-san's original words."
What kind of operation is this? Do you want to stop selling? Tanaka Yoshiaki thought for a while: "So, what does Yanyin mean?"
"No, Yanyin doesn't have any ideas. We will still promote the new album in accordance with Warner Pioneer's requirements." Akiko Fusa said, "I sent this demo tape today to let you know about this situation.
At the end of the year, there will be a record like this that will compete with "North Wing."
Tanaka Yoshiaki was silent for a while after hearing this: "Hey, I understand, thank you Fang Zesang."
After Akiko Futonori left, Tanaka Yoshiaki walked into Terashi Chao's office with this audition tape.
"Minister Temple Forest, this is the audition tape of "Snow Flower"..."
"..."
About half an hour later, Tanaka Yoshiaki walked out of the office. When everyone in the office area looked at him, he took a deep breath and said calmly:
"Daitaipao, our "North Wing" is also a very high-quality song, and I am very confident about "North Wing"!"
"Mina-san, it will be released in more than a week, we must work harder!
The person who was in charge of advertising before will contact Dentsu again and put ads at all subway entrances!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! If it is related to the TV station, in addition to the audio program, all other programs that can be included will be included!
In the line of the record store, the music in the store starts playing!
There are also newspapers and magazines, let me move them all!
I want all the people to be surrounded by the record "North Wing" all the time, and we want to put this record into their heads!!!"
"Hi!!" Other staff in the office agreed and immediately started taking action!
.........
In the new apartment, Nakamori Akina and Nagayama Naoki arranged all the furniture, cleaned it, and put up all the Christmas decorations that Nagayama Naoki brought over.
Looking at the socks hanging at the end of the bed, Akina smiled and said, "Naoki-san, do you want to put the gifts inside the socks on Christmas Day?"
"Of course, Santa Claus and I have agreed to put the gifts in while Akina is asleep!"
Nagayama Naoki leaned handsomely against the door frame and said this. If he hadn't been holding a rag in his hand, it would have been more convincing.
"I don't believe it!" Akina Nakamori is no longer old enough to believe in fairy tales. She playfully bumped into Naoki Nagayama and said, "Without the key, Naoki-san can't get in!"
"Huh? Does Akina have to give me the spare key?" Nagayama Naoki asked as he came closer.
"I won't give it! What if Naoki-san randomly comes in and scares me!"
Akina Nakamori smiled and ran away. Although she liked Nagayama Naoki very much, it was not the time to give the spare key yet. Even her parents had never seen it!
"Huh?... You can enter Yamazakura-in as much as you like~" Naoki Nagayama looked pitiful and looked like he was about to cry, "Women are so heartless~"
"When can I freely enter Yamazakura-in?"
Akina Nakamori was surprised. When did you give the key? Why didn’t I know?
"Isn't that what happened last time?" Naoki Nagayama smiled, sitting on the cleaned sofa and said, "Call Taro's name at the door, and he will open the door for you!"
"Eh?!"
Akina suddenly realized that Nagayama Naoki's family has a very smart Yotaro! A fully automatic biological lock picker!
"Hahaha, I'm going to try it again next time!" Akina Nakamori held Naoki Nagayama's head, looked at it, and then kissed her, "Naoki-san needs to hide the bad things at home!"
"??Bad stuff?"
Akina Nakamori pulled away and said with a bad smile: "The one on the bedside table...under the mattress..."
"..."
When was it discovered?! Those are the items Naoki Nagayama left behind to criticize!
Autumn bean sack, Akina, listen to my quibbles!
.......
The ingredients brought by Naoki Nagayama were finally used in the evening.
The hot big bone miso soup comes from Mingcai; the fragrant twice-cooked pork comes from Naoki; plus stir-fried vegetables, grilled saury, and fried meatballs, this is today's dinner.
After working for a long time in the afternoon, eating the food you cooked will naturally feel even more delicious.
When they finished cleaning the kitchen, it was still early and it was not time to go to bed. The two of them sat in the newly tidied living room, drinking tea and chatting.
"Naoki-san, are you editing "Love Letter" recently?" asked Akina Nakamori, who was nestled in her arms.
"Well, the editing is almost completed, and it will be ready for release in two days." Naoki Nagayama answered casually, "However, there will be no preview screening this time, it will be released directly."
“Do you really want to show it when it’s snowing?”
"Isn't that very interesting~" Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "When the snow falls, I listen to Akina's "Snow Flower" and invite the people I like to go to the cinema together... It sounds very romantic!
"
"I don't know if others will like the movie I starred in~" Akina was a little shy.
"I will definitely like it!" Nagayama Naoki is very confident...
"Hmm~"
The topic suddenly broke off, and there was a little silence. Nagayama Naoki's hand around Akina's shoulder suddenly moved:
"By the way, I almost forgot!"
"?"
"I brought a movie!"
"what movie?"
"'Midnight Ring'! Aren't Akina afraid of going to the cinema to watch it? So I got a preview tape so I can watch it at home!" Naoki Nagayama stood up excitedly and took it out of his coat pocket at the entrance.
A videotape.
"Huh?" Nakamori Akina was a little hesitant and a little excited. This is a horror movie that everyone has been discussing recently. "Naoki-san, is it scary? Everyone is saying..."
"Haha, what are you afraid of? Aren't I right next to you?! I took this picture!" Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, and then went to adjust the TV.
I closed the curtains, turned off the headlights, and huddled inside the kotatsu. In the entire living room, there was only the bright light from the 15-inch TV screen, illuminating the two people watching the TV... Instantly, I felt like I was at school.
The feeling of watching illegal movies secretly with friends.
As the player started, "The Ring" began to play on the TV in the living room, and the frightening story unfolded...
Nagayama Naoki has seen it many times. Although he is still a little scared, he is still much better.
However, this is the first time for Akina Nakamori to watch it, so from time to time you can hear exclamations of "ah", "ah white" and "so scary".
Even on a small TV screen, the horror of "Midnight Ring" is not weak at all. The little girl was so scared that she completely hid in Naoki Nagayama's arms...
When Sadako climbed out of the TV, Akina Nakamori curled up in Naoki Nagayama's arms, holding her boyfriend's hand in front of her eyes... but she still peeked between her fingers, and she became more and more frightened.
The more I want to see it~
.......
"Naoki-san! You make me afraid to go to the bathroom alone!"
After the movie was over, the lights were turned on again, but it still slowed down for a while. Akina Nakamori complained about her boyfriend.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "So exaggerated?!" Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "Didn't you turn on the light?"
"That would be scary! What if Sadako jumps out of it!" Nakamori Akina still shrank in Nagayama Naoki's arms, "It's all your fault for making such a scary movie!"
"..."
Seeing that the time was almost up, Nagayama Naoki said: "Then let me help you explore the road first?"
"?"
"I'm going to take a shower first~" Nagayama Naoki kissed Akina on the forehead, "If you're scared to be alone, you can come in~"
"Naoki-san is really H!" Akina's cheeks immediately turned red...
"Haha~"
The water heater in the new apartment is very easy to use. The warm water washes away the fatigue on the body and refreshes the mind.
But after washing, I found that I didn't bring a bathrobe... Now I had no choice but to ask Akina to help pass it in... Nagayama Naoki's lips hung up again
smiled evilly.
"Akina...help me pass the bathrobe in~"
"Eh? Bathrobe?" Akina Nakamori saw the bathrobe she prepared on the bed in the bedroom, "What a careless guy!"
Akina walked to the bathroom door holding her bathrobe: "Naoki-san, I left the bathrobe at the door~"
"Give it to me directly~"
Nagayama Naoki's voice came out through the bathroom door, and then the door opened a crack. Akina saw at a glance her boyfriend's chiseled body surrounded by water vapor... her face turned rosy.
.
"Here...here...here..." Akina Nakamori held the clothes and sent them in. She could see more clearly. She swallowed and felt that she might need to drink again.
Order tea.
"Ah, thank you Akina~" Nagayama Naoki took the bathrobe.
"..." Akina Nakamori asked in a panic, "Naoki-san, have you got it?"
"It's ready~" Nagayama Naoki said with a smile.
"..." Akina Nakamori's face turned redder and redder, "But Naoki-san, you took my hand..."
"Ah...Private Marseille~" Naoki Nagayama put the bathrobe on the shelf, "But didn't Akina just say that you would be scared to take a bath alone?"
"Huh? I don't think I said that..."
"No, you said it~"
Nagayama Naoki used a little force to pull Akina, who was unable to resist, into the bathroom... In the lingering white mist, he accurately found the red lips on her cheeks, blocking her words that she wanted to continue to refute...
.
In the looming bathroom, in addition to the sound of hot water spraying and rapid breathing, there are also some sounds coming from time to time:
"Naoki-san...your clothes are all wet!"
"Then just wash it again tomorrow...just take it off~"
"...."
"But...didn't take that..."
"Already got it!"
.......
The small umbrella has been stuffed into the bathrobe!
