601, how did it become someone’s exclusive interview program?!
...
During lunch break, Nagayama Naoki's pager suddenly started beeping.
"at this time?"
Naoki Nagayama was a little surprised. Only Akina would call from this pager, but it was really rare to call him at noon.
Looking at the unfamiliar overseas number on the small screen, Nagayama Naoki said to Yoshimura Otomo and Itou Shuichi who were having dinner together, and then went to a small conference room with a phone:
"Moses, Mingcai?"
"Naoki-san!" The voice in the microphone was a little noisy. It was obviously outdoors, and occasionally you could hear the laughter of some people. "Guess where I am?"
"Resort hotel?" Nagayama Naoki knew that Akina had gone to Guam to film a show. The time difference between Guam and Japan is not that big, so it is also noon now. At this time, it must have been just a short time ago...
"Yeah, I just got over the jet lag..." Maybe she was out of town, thousands of miles away from her boyfriend, Akina's tone was filled with longing, "It feels similar to Hawaii... but unfortunately not.
Naoki-san~"
Do you still want me to fly there...
"Didn't I just meet you? I'll see you again when Akina comes back..."
"But now I really want to see Naoki-san..."
Naoki Nagayama had no choice but to comfort him softly. The conversation between the two of them during their passionate love period was nothing, but if a third person heard it, it would give people goosebumps.
After finally calming down his little girlfriend, Naoki Nagayama asked: "How long will Akina take to shoot this time?"
"For more than a week... I have a full work schedule every day... In addition to the original program, there are also connections to various programs, photos and so on..."
As a top idol, it's not easy for him to go abroad once, so he won't just shoot one show. When he was recording an album before, he also had two or three projects going on at the same time, let alone recording a special show this time.
After talking intermittently for almost half an hour, the two of them hung up the phone... The phone bill was probably tens of thousands of yen.
........
By the time I got back to the office, the lunch box was already cold.
"Naoki-san, why are you so late?" Itou Shuichi asked, "You haven't had enough lunch yet?"
Naoki Nagayama shook his head casually, "It doesn't matter, I have to go back to Yamazakuin in the afternoon."
This afternoon, he made an appointment with Nakanishi Naotaro and the others to record the "Newspeak Catchphrase Awards" in the study room of Yamazakurain.
"I see."
"Shuichi-san, it seems that the first batch of MV copies will arrive in the afternoon." Nagayama Naoki said to Itou Shuichi, "Shuiichi-san, please help me check them."
"Of course there is no problem."
Yoshimura Otomo heard this and was a little curious: "Naoki-san, how is the effect of the MV?"
"Well... currently we can only watch it through the TV..." Nagayama Naoki said, "I might as well bring a karaoke machine to the company later. I can try it and use it as a leisure area for employees.
also....."
"This?" Setting up a leisure area for employees in the company is completely nonsense in the eyes of Japanese companies. "Companies are for working..."
"Haha, a person only has 24 hours in a day, 8 hours of sleep, 10 hours of work, and the remaining 6 hours, 2 hours on the road, and 1 hour for eating... In the end, there are only 3 hours left.
I can move around freely for an hour... Isn't this too pitiful~"
"Huh?" The two people who lived in the Showa era were very puzzled. Isn't this normal? Besides 10 hours, they also had to go out for dinner and drinks with their bosses!
Nagayama Naoki did not want to think about how to change the old ideas of the two, but said: "We Shuyou want to be in line with companies in Europe and the United States, and have an international style... so employee welfare must be done well.
!Let’s start from the leisure area!”
From now on, snacks, afternoon tea, forced get off work, employee canteens, etc. will all be gradually provided.
You can’t become a capitalist and forget about the bitterness of being a worker!
If the entire environment cannot be changed, at least the group of people who follow me must live a better life...
At this time, Shuichi Itou and Otomo Yoshimura, who were listening to Nagayama Naoki's thoughts, thought that their president was suffering from hysteria... However, who called him the president, so they just followed him
Come on, it won’t cost much anyway~
.........
At the same time, in the resort hotel in Guam, the agent Akiyuki found Nakamori Akina.
"Mingna, the afternoon recording is about to begin."
"Hi!"
Putting on a cool suspender skirt, Nakamori Akina replied energetically that after talking to her boyfriend, her overall mental state had improved a lot, and even the fatigue from flying seemed to be reduced a lot.
When we came to the hotel's swimming pool, we were accompanied by Nahoko Kawai, Yu Hayami, Naoko Ken, Goro Noguchi, and Johnny's Toshihiko Tahara and Masahiko Kondo.
Since it was a hot summer here, the girls were dressed a little coolly, but the male guests were very relaxed and wore nothing but a pair of beach shorts.
In front of the camera, Nahoko Kawai was trying to learn hula among a group of local hula dancers. After seeing Akina, she happily invited:
"Akina-chan, come and dance together~ It doesn't feel difficult..."
"Hi~"
After Akina happily took the hula skirt, she ran next to her and began to try to dance hula with the locals. Thanks to the basic skills of ballet, there was no difference after quickly connecting.
"Akina-chan dances so well!" At some point, the guests participating in the show gathered nearby, and my friend Yu Hayami immediately praised her, "Come and teach me!"
"Hahaha~ No way~" Akina stopped a little shyly, walked to the group of girls and started teaching skills.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At the request of the program director, several male guests on the other side also participated in the chatting and laughing. Tahara Toshihiko originally had a good relationship with Akina, so he wanted to
He was about to walk next to Akina, but Kondo Masahiko made a small move and inserted himself next to Tahara Toshihiko.
"Akina-chan is really amazing!" Kondo Masahiko's tone was very flattering, "You can learn hula in no time..."
Since the beginning of this year, Nakamori Akina's popularity has risen rapidly, and she has achieved great success across music and film fields. This undoubtedly makes Kondo Masahiko, who is seeking a transformation, very envious. In addition to fans buying into the previous youth movies, a serious
I have never won any awards...
If I can cooperate with Akina Nakamori, not only my idol career, but also my crossover to movies may be much easier.
"Thank you....."
Nakamori Akina just expressed her gratitude politely. Thanks to Nagayama Naoki's previous warning, this person who is regarded as a senior idol has long been labeled in her heart as frivolous, unreliable, bullying newcomers, and having ulterior motives.
.
And now...he actually leaned over while wearing beach pants, looking at his skinny upper body, which was completely incomparable to her boyfriend! Akina Nakamori labeled him as a thin dog, disgusting, shameless, etc.
I thought in my mind: "Next time I will explain to Fang Zesang that we should have fewer programs with this person in the future..."
After all, the other party is also the top of the male idol pyramid, and some large-scale shows such as the Red and White Song Festival are unavoidable.
When Kondo Masahiko still wanted to get closer, Nakamori Akina quickly dragged Hayami Yu back to the hula dance group and began to teach her friend how to dance hula.
Toshihiko Tahara, who was watching with cold eyes, looked at Kondo Masahiko with disdain. This guy relied on Kitagawa Mari's favor and always received a lot of resources. He was even more powerful in the office and was very arrogant.
No, are you trying to squeeze yourself away just to borrow Nakamori Akina's popularity... Haha, others ignore you completely! And it's like avoiding a piece of shit...
In this sunny Guam, Tahara Toshihiko's mood is as refreshing as drinking a glass of cold atomic soda!
He seemed to be aware of Nakamori Akina's alienation from him, and his face darkened. However, he quickly realized that this was in front of the camera, and quickly regained his artist face, and continued to interact with other guests as if nothing happened.
But I was cursing in my heart: "What's going on with this woman...she actually ignores me? What's so great, isn't it just that she won the Blue Ribbon Award for Best Newcomer, isn't it that "Snow Flower" has always been at the top of the list?
..."
"If it weren't for fame..."
It has to be said that Kondo Masahiko, who has reached the top of idols, is very good at showing off his words. He did not show any unpleasant emotions in the show. Instead, he tried to please everyone and wanted to get closer to each other.
But what I got in exchange was a distant and polite response from Akina Nakamori...
When it was time to rest at night, Akina sighed in her heart: "Naoki-san... What should I do? There is a guy like a fly, always flying around..."
........
At this time, Naoki Nagayama had returned to Yamasakura-in and was welcoming Naotaro Nakanishi in.
"Everyone, this is my home." Naoki Nagayama looked at the film crew of "Newspeak Buzzword Awards". In addition to the host and the two photographers, Koaki Sakata and Mitsuomi Obara, there was also an acquaintance - Shogakukan
’s editorial assistant, the baby-faced Yuya Furuya.
"Please come in, don't be formal."
"Furuya-kun, why are you here too?"
Yuya Furuya smiled and said: "As a guest of this issue of Shogakukan... I would like to explain the meaning and origin of buzzwords..."
After several people entered the entrance hall, they were warmly welcomed by Taro Taro. A large dog ran towards them, startling Naotaro Nakanishi.
"This is Taro Ying, don't worry, I won't bite anyone..."
"Hi......"
A few people admired the interior decoration of Yamasakura-in for a while. It looked like it belonged to a wealthy family. The LCD TV over 64 inches alone was not something for ordinary people.
I heard that Panasonic TV launched a "Cosmic TV" this year, which is over 200 inches and can be mounted on a large truck for playback... I don't know what the effect is.
In the living room, the film crew set up the camera, and then Naotaro Nakanishi and Yuya Furuya began to record according to the lines.
Naotaro Nakanishi: "Two buzzwords have suddenly become popular in Tokyo recently! One is 'No one can beat me in my BGM!' The other is 'Next, it's commercial time'...
We asked Yuya Furuya from Shogakukan to explain to us the origin of the catchphrase!”
Yuya Furuya said according to the script: "These two buzzwords became popular at the film Blue Ribbon Award Ceremony..."
These descriptions and explanations are all written in advance, and he only needs to recite them, so recording them is not difficult.
Naotaro Nakanishi nodded while listening and echoed from time to time. As expected, he was worthy of being an experienced travel reporter. When the explanation was completed:
"Today we came to the home of Naoki Nagayama, the creator of the buzzword, to interview the original intention of creating these two buzzwords. Please follow the camera and take a look at Naoki Nagayama's residence!"
The camera showed the enviable living room and exquisite yard of Jishan Sakurain. Even the two pets showed their faces... As the camera moved, the entire film crew began to head towards the second floor. Naturally, they saw
The huge graffiti work at the corner of the stairs.
Naotaro Nakanishi took a closer look: "Haha, I didn't expect Naoki-san to actually like graffiti art. He is really a man full of surprises..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He himself does not know much about graffiti art, but Yuya Furuya is a golden spoon man and has also studied abroad. He knows a lot about American street graffiti art...
I've been here before but didn't take a closer look. This time I took a closer look and suddenly took a breath:
"This is the work of Jean-Michel Basquiat!"
Seeing that the signature in the corner of the work included the signature "Given to my friend William", Yuya Furuya became a little excited: "It is actually a private gift! Basquiat rarely graffitied for specific people, let alone graffiti.
It’s signed!”
Naotaro Nakanishi was a little confused: "Is this Jean-Michel Basquiat famous?"
"Very famous? He is the most popular graffiti artist in the United States right now!" Yuya Furuya saw that he still didn't understand Naotaro Nakanishi, so he said, "He has held art exhibitions in the United States, Europe and Japan! Japan's (Akira Ikeda Art Museum)
!”
“It can be said that he is a pioneer at the forefront of art!!”
Although Naotaro Nakanishi didn't know who this person was, he knew that Yuya Furuya valued him so much and he knew he was an amazing person: "That's it. I didn't expect Naoki-san to have friendship with such a person...
.”
In Yuya Furuya's excitement, the camera slowly walked into the study room on the second floor, where Naoki Nagayama was immersed in writing something in front of the desk.
The gentle sunshine in the afternoon shone in from the open window. The white window screen trembled slightly in the wind and touched the corner of the table for a moment before shyly shrinking back to the window, as if not wanting to disturb the bookish male protagonist.
The screen moved slowly, and the items on the desk were clearly revealed. They were more than a dozen novels, and the names clearly read "Tomorrow's Me and Yesterday's You".
"Mina-san, good afternoon!" Nagayama Naoki stopped writing and greeted several people gently.
Naotaro Nakanishi gave full play to his ability as a host: "Naoki-san, what are you busy with?"
“I’m signing new novels!”
"New novel? Has Naoki-san's new novel been written?" Naotaro Nakanishi praised it very well.
"Hi, the name is "Tomorrow's Me and Yesterday's You" and it will go on sale in March." Naoki Nagayama held up a novel and showed it.
"Oh? What kind of novel is it?"
"Ah, it's about a pair of lovers with different timelines... They can only meet once every five years... They only have one month of love in a lifetime..." Yongshan
Naoki briefly explained the plot of the novel, and then said with a smile, "Haha, it's advertising time... If you want to know the specific plot of the novel, please support my novel in the bookstore in March!
"
Naotaro Nakanishi was stunned for a moment, and then sighed: "Now we know where the catchphrase 'It's advertising time' comes from!"
For a moment, the two guests and supporters laughed, and the entire visit atmosphere became very relaxed.
During the following interview, the host Naotaro Nakanishi once again asked Naoki Nagayama about the details and origins of the birth of the two buzzwords. Because Naoki Nagayama is already very popular, he is not worried about the ratings of the show at all.
Instead, it focuses more on every detail of Naoki Nagayama.
"Is this a sketch of Naoki-san?" Naotaro Nakanishi saw the drawing board in the corner. On it were some scenes from "The Garden of Words". The exquisite pictures and compositions amazed everyone present, "I didn't expect Naoki-san.
He’s actually very good at painting!”
"Haha, it's just the first draft, not colored yet..."
Nagayama Naoki said with a smile that since there was no way to make a movie out of the images that remained in his head, he could only use this method to relieve the accumulated memory pressure.
When the camera captured the piano, the music score above caught Yuya Furuya’s attention:
""Time after time～花木う街で～"...I seem to have never heard of this song..."
Only then did Nagayama Naoki remember that when he recalled this song before, he practiced playing the piano and forgot to put it away. He was used to it, and he didn't even remember that the music score was on the piano before the film crew...
But now that it has been discovered...
"Haha, this is a new song, it has not been released to the public yet."
"Naoki-san's new song?!" Furuya Yuya was surprised, forgetting his identity as a guest, but exclaimed like a curious baby, "I don't know what it is like..."
"..." Seeing the expectant look on this baby face, Nagayama Naoki felt helpless, "How about I play it?"
"That's great!"
So in front of the camera, Naoki Nagayama played the song "Time after time～花 Dance Street で～"...
Nyaotaro in the yard heard the beautiful melody coming from the window on the second floor again. He scratched his ears with his paws. He had heard it many times before, and he started playing it again for some reason.
"Naoki-san is really full of treasures!" Looking at Naoki Nagayama playing the piano, Naotaro Nakanishi sighed in his heart, "Why does this program feel like it is going to be an exclusive interview program with Naoki Nagayama...
.”
After the song was played, it naturally received continuous praise from several people present, and compliments from the talented musicians came pouring in...
At the end, Naoki Nagayama still hadn’t forgotten today’s original script, pointing to the novel on the table and saying:
"Nakanishi Naotaro-san, since you're here, it's fate, so I'll give these trial editions of the novels as small gifts to the show!"
"Hi!" Naotaro Nakanishi regained his capable appearance and said very skillfully, "Thank you Naoki-san for your generosity!"
Then he said to the camera:
"Mina-san, the latest trial version of Naoki Nagayama's novel, with the author's signature, is a collection worthy of a lifetime!"
"Our program will draw 10 free gifts from the audience in this episode! In addition, there are many small prizes. I hope everyone will actively participate in voting for the program! The ways to participate in voting are: 1,...
2,……..3,……..”
Naoki Nagayama looked at this very familiar pattern, and inexplicably thought of the voting among celebrity fans in later generations...
