"The courtyard?" Nagayama Naoki asked a little strangely.
"Hi! I just want to go in advance to see if the final effect is what I want. You can also make fine adjustments before the final result." Shinkai Ishida on the microphone was a little nervous. "By the way, you can also take a look at the holiday home next to Lake Toya."
"Ah...yes, there is also a holiday house~"
If Ishida Shinkai hadn't reminded him, Nagayama Naoki would have forgotten it. Now he understands why those Russian rich people didn't know where their yachts were~
This is the trouble of rich people!
Ishida Shinkai was very angry when he heard it on the other end of the microphone. The result of his hard work was actually not important in Party A's heart!
He whispered unconsciously: "What a disgusting rich man..."
"Nani?"
"Ah, nothing!" Ishida Shinkai immediately replied, "So, do Naoki-san have some time recently?"
"Recently... I think I have some time~" Nagayama Naoki thought about it for a moment. After attending the Waseda Sakura Festival tomorrow, there shouldn't be anything too important. It's okay to go to Kyoto.
"By the way, Shinkai-san~" Nagayama Naoki suddenly remembered something, "Didn't I tell your office before that I wanted to entrust a longer-term project?"
"Naoki-san, are you talking about that KTV chain project?" Ishida Shinkai has naturally heard of it, and Mr. Honma also said that this year's year-end bonus depends on this project!
"Hi, the location selection for the second KTV should be completed soon, so this project can start by then."
As Naoki Nagayama spoke, he wrote down something in the small notebook he carried with him, asking him to find Brother Feng to determine the location of the second KTV.
I didn’t have this itinerary before, but under the guidance of people around me (here specifically the child Akina Nakamori), I also recorded important matters even without the calendar function on my mobile phone.
This little notebook can also be used for emergency purposes when inspiration strikes~
"Hey, our Honma Design Office is always ready to devote all our efforts to the project!" Shinkai Ishida patted his chest and promised, "No matter when Naoki-san starts, we will immediately come up with a design plan!"
"That's good, let's go to Kyoto the day after tomorrow to see the courtyard on Monday morning, and decide on the KTV design plan..." Nagayama Naoki thoughtfully avoided the weekend, but still wanted to
Let the workers have time to rest!
"Hi! Then we are waiting for your arrival at the office!"
Naoki Nagayama hung up the phone and began to think silently.
Once Brother Feng's KTV chain starts, it will expand rapidly and seize the market. Various problems will inevitably arise. It seems that I still have to communicate with Brother Feng tomorrow!
Ah, by the way, I’m going to watch Tsuruko’s performance tomorrow night~
Also, how is the show that Akina is going to record overseas?
Various thoughts collided in his mind, making Naoki Nagayama's expression look a little heavy.
At this moment, when his legs felt warm, Yintaro's dog's head lay on his lap, with a grin on his face and innocent eyes looking up, as if he was comforting his master.
Seeing such a scene, Nagayama Naoki couldn't help but smile:
"Yingtaro, how did you learn to be a golden retriever? Do you want to be a warm man?"
"Woof woof~"
"I don't know what you are talking about, but since you want to be a warm man, are you thinking about your little girlfriend at this time?"
Naoki Nagayama slapped Taro's head vigorously, making the white dog's thick tail like a mallet swing around.
"Woof woof woof (that's what you think!)"
And while one person and one dog were messing around, Nyaotaro, who was supposed to be very cold all the time, heard a cat meowing outside the Yamazakura courtyard, and began to roll around on the verandah outside the door, making loud noises from time to time.
Strange howling sound….
"...."
Nagayama Naoki and Yutaro both looked over.
"Is this... in heat?"
"Woof!"
"But Nyaotaro is a male cat!"
"Woof?"
"The scream is too unpleasant. Mr. Tailang, do you want to cut off his balls?"
"Woof?!∑(O_O!)"
........
April is the lie of cherry blossoms. They clearly promised to leave the best memories of spring, but they began to fall away sadly when they were at their most brilliant.
Pieces of cherry blossom petals fall from the treetops, dance in the sun, swirl in the wind, and finally take a final bow on the ground.
The streets full of cherry blossoms are paved with a layer of cherry blossom petals, as if they go from bud to bloom, just for this moment when they finally fall from the branches... and it is so beautiful.
Nagayama Naoki opened the convertible and drove towards the KTV in Harajuku, letting the pink and white petals fall in the car~
I confirmed it when I came here before. In the morning, Brother Feng will go to Harajuku KTV to inspect and confirm the business preparations for today.
"Naoki-san!" KTV waiter Tetsuhiro Kurita recognized the shop owner with a sharp eye.
"Hi, Brother Kaede arrived early in the morning and is inspecting the situation in each private room." Tetsuhiro Kurita immediately reported the whereabouts of Kaede Nagayama.
"Okay, I'll wait for him in the office~"
"Hey, when Brother Feng comes over, I'll tell him as soon as possible!"
"Thank you~"
Nagayama Naoki came to the relatively plain center area. The outside also functions as a monitoring room, and the innermost is the office of the store manager or manager. During this period, either Shigechi Araki or Kaede Nagayama worked here.
.
Looking at the staff schedule on the table, there were actually more than 30 people in the small KTV, which can be said to be too sufficient. However, there were about ten people in the club. When the next KTV opened,
I will go and look after the store.
Soon~
"Naoki!" Yongshan Feng walked in with a smile on his face, "You came to KTV so early to see me?"
"Well, has Brother Feng completed his morning routine inspection?" Naoki Nagayama asked.
"Yes, actually you don't have to check one by one, just spot check~" Nagayama Kaede sat down and explained a little, "Now the main thing is to teach Hamazaki Shogo and the guys how to check...one by one.
Like an idiot, I can’t remember it even after being taught it many times! How will I run the next store in the future?”
"Haha, just teach slowly~ If it doesn't work, you can still recruit people to do it." Nagayama Naoki comforted, "Anyway, the elders of the club only need to be the top managers."
"That's what I say, but if you don't know anything, you will be ignored by your subordinates!" Yongshan Feng said very experiencedly, "Just like when I collected protection fees in Qingshui before, I took a lot from it, but my father
But I never knew..."
Halfway through his words, Yongshan Feng realized what he was doing and subconsciously shrank his head and glanced at the door:
"Ah Bai, I actually said it!"
Then he looked at Nagayama Naoki very kindly: "Naoki, you won't tell my father, right~"
"...I'm not that boring, and I'm still making a small report~"
Nagayama Naoki was speechless. Although Brother Feng is very old, his personality is still like that of a child!
But I still remember this matter. When one day Brother Feng disobeys me, let him educate him!
"Hahaha, that's good, good brother!" Yongshan Feng smiled and patted his cousin's shoulder. If it hadn't been for practice, Yongshan Naoki would have had numb shoulders~
"By the way, what did Naoki come to see me for?"
Finally getting down to business, Naoki Nagayama told the story of the KTV design:
"Brother Feng, what do you think of the KTV location selection? If it is decided, we will go to Honma Design Office the day after tomorrow to choose the decoration style, and then we can start to produce design drawings."
Yong Shanfeng scratched his chin: "I have indeed looked at a lot of places in the past few days, and some of them are quite tempting... But now we only have 500 million in funds, and I am worried that the money may not be enough...
.So I was wondering if I could rent it first?”
"If you rent, there are likely to be many problems...it may also be exploited by competitors in the early stages of development." Naoki Nagayama said, "At least the first few houses must be owned by you. If you don't have enough money, I will
Can you help me cushion some first..."
"Naoki's money didn't come from the strong wind..." Yongshan Feng said with a smile, "I will communicate with my father, it doesn't matter."
"In short, let's start the other companies first... Then you can go to the bank for a loan. The KTV model is easy to copy. If you expand to other cities later, you can also rent it."
"Um!"
Nagayama Naoki also communicated with his cousin about the difficulties that the previous KTVs may have encountered when operating, as well as the troubles that chain companies will encounter when they expand, and took some precautions.
"You can even find local people to participate together. Anyway, we need to build the brand and quickly occupy the market... By the way, Brother Feng, what do you plan to call the KTV chain?" Naoki Nagayama thought at this time.
stand up.
"Ah!" Yongshan Feng was very excited, "I plan to call it Renxia KTV! This represents the loyalty and belief of our Yongshan group!"
"...."
The silence at this time was deafening...for a long time~
"Brother Feng~"
"?Nani?"
"Call it 'Melody'! It's a place full of beauty and joy... and it also means melody," Naoki Nagayama said. "If you call me Ren Xia, others will think you are from the club headquarters...
..it will scare away the customers!”
"..." Yong Shanfeng was a little unhappy.
Seeing his cousin like this, Nagayama Naoki didn't give much advice: "Anyway, before deciding on the name, let's talk to my grandfather first~"
"oh....."
The two made an appointment to go to Honma Design Office to discuss the design plan on the morning of next Monday. Naoki Nagayama only remembered when he was about to leave:
"Tonight, Tsuruko will have a folk performance. Brother Feng, do you want to go and see it?"
"ballad?"
"Yes, it's at Waseda University."
"Oh? Really?" Yongshan Feng became interested, "Then I can't miss it!"
"Haha, let's go together tonight!"
Nagayama Naoki smiled and said, Tsuruko, I said I would give you surprises, so this is one of them!
.........
Without disturbing Brother Kaede's work in Harajuku, Naoki Nagayama came to the studio again before noon.
"Naoki-san!" "Good morning Naoki-san!"
Perhaps because they knew about the move of the headquarters, the employees' smiles became even brighter.
Nagayama Naoki walked to the office, only to find that Yoshimura Otomo was not there, only Itou Shuichi was busy with something.
"Shuiichi-san~"
"Ah, Naoki-san is here!" Itou Shuichi raised his head and greeted.
"What is Shuichi-san doing?" Naoki Nagayama looked at the information Shuichi Itou had read.
"It's a cooperation agreement with the school." Itou Shuichi said, "Because we have to borrow the classroom and the playground, we have to make a contract with the school... Also, the filming can only be completed in two days on the weekend...
..”
"So anxious?" Nagayama Naoki asked strangely. He remembered that "Love Will Stop" had a lot of scenes in school. "Can we finish filming the scenes in school?"
"So I'm scheduling...but I guess there should be no problem." Itou Shuichi said, "Of course, there are still some issues with extras. I plan to send a communication to the student union of this school and invite some real students to fill in
Make a backdrop.”
"Huh? This might be a bit troublesome~"
"Haha, it's just a few shots."
Seeing Shuichi Itou's confidence, Naoki Nagayama felt relieved. After all, Shuichi-san is also an experienced director!
"It seems that the preparations for "Love Has Ended Like the Rain" are almost complete, right?"
"Hey, I've decided to start shooting in early May! Takewaki Muiga's side has already coordinated!" Itou Shuichi said, "Naoki-san, there will be a start-up ceremony then, you must come!"
"Eh? Me?"
"Yes, I want to take advantage of your blessing!" Itou Xiuyi said plausibly, "Naoki-san, you must be favored by Bensaitian who masters art and music!"
"..."
In a country with eight million gods, it is difficult for others not to be superstitious... That goddess has another big red envelope!
"Okay, I will go~" Nagayama Naoki nodded.
"What did Otomo-san do?"
"It seems that I went to TV Asahi." Itou Shuichi said.
"TV Asahi?"
Naoki Nagayama recalled that it seemed that Shuyou had very little contact with TV Asahi.
At present, Shuyou has the best relationship with Fuji TV. In addition to Naoki Nagayama’s personal relationship, there is also a five-year framework agreement and two currently cooperating variety shows.
It also has a certain connection with TV Tokyo, but TBS has even less connection... and basically has no connection with other TV stations.
"Do we have any connection with TV Asahi?"
"If you don't have contact, you have to establish contact!" Itou Shuichi said, "After all, it is one of the five major TV stations. In the past, it was just ordinary programs and announcements.
However, this time Otomo-san seemed to have established a relationship with the director of TV Asahi's program production through the introduction of an old friend.
So this time I’m here to talk about long-term cooperation~”
The agency owned by Shuyou currently has quite a few idols.
Although compared to Watanabe, there is still a big gap between established agencies like Yoshimoto Kogyo, but the idols are all artists with a certain degree of fame, and some of them are top-notch idols and have already gained a good reputation in the industry.
With such a size, we can already discuss long-term cooperation with TV stations.
"As expected, it's Otomo-san, and there are really a lot of connections involved with him!"
From before, Nagayama Naoki knew that Yoshimura Otomo's network was very strong. After all, he even had friends with Kadokawa Haruki!
"Haha, when Otomo-san was young, he was still very active and very good at making friends... It's a pity that after getting married, he was controlled too strictly~" Itou Shuichi sighed, "And then there are all kinds of trivial matters in life.
.....In the end, all my hair slowly fell out~"
"Oh?" Nagayama Naoki smelled the gossip, "Xiu Yisang, please be careful~"
It’s not complicated to say. When Yoshimura Otomo was young and working hard in Tokyo, he was very motivated and met many people. However, he met his beloved in his hometown, so he left Tokyo, got married, and returned to his hometown...
Later, due to livelihood issues, he and his wife were forced to live apart in two places, and then came to Tokyo to work...
But more than ten years have passed, and everything has changed. As I am older and have no qualifications, it is difficult to find a decent job in a society with a lifelong employment system... I can only join an agency and become a talent scout...
....
Before meeting Naoki Nagayama, the pressure of life had already left Otomo Yoshimura with very little hair left~
"So, what exactly does marriage bring to a man?"
Naoki Nagayama sighed~
"Naoki-san, you're not even married...don't pretend to be experienced!"
Itou Xiuyi rolled his eyes: "I didn't even say anything!"
"So, what has marriage brought to Xiu Yisang?"
Hearing this, Itou Shuichi thought carefully and finally smiled: "At least give me Jiayi-chan!"
This daughter slave!
.......
In the factory district of Kita-ku, Tokyo, the headquarters of General Air Conditioning is located here.
Assistant to the chairman Yasuyuki Nakano is checking the report sent by the investment department. He is currently in a critical period of negotiation with Fujitsu. He wants to ensure that all the information about his company is up to date.
"It is suspected that hot money is buying General's stocks?" Yasuyuki Nakano looked at the conclusion in the report, "But the amount is not large, is it normal behavior in the stock market?"
Before formally cooperating with Fujitsu, this situation should also be paid attention to. He immediately asked the personnel of the investment department for details.
"The turnover rate is very high. It is suspected that a bookmaker is building a position sideways?" Nakano Yasuyuki continued to ask, "Are you sure?"
"Nakano-san, such a position opening is very secretive. It can only be said that it is possible...or it may be a normal fluctuation~" Yasuyuki Tamura, the director of the investment department, said, "But even if it is a hot money position opening, it is just a routine operation.
That's all, there will be dishwashing operations later...
Generally speaking, the amount of hot money will not be very large, and it will not have a big impact on our stock price at present."
If Fujitsu finally injects capital, of course the stock price will increase significantly. However, the negotiations with Fujitsu are now held in secret. In fact, even Nakano Yasuyuki does not know when the negotiations will be concluded. Naturally, he will not think that anyone has got the news.
Want to make a profit in the stock market.
But even so, the stability of the stock price is still very important, especially during the negotiation process...
After Nakano Yasuyuki thought about it for a while, he still told the director of the investment department: "Minister Tamura, please be prepared and don't let changes in stock prices damage investors' confidence."
"Hey, our investment department will be well prepared and will not cause major changes in the stock price."
