785, Home flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers...
.......
Major events are usually held at a time when the weather is good. Although the FNS Song Festival is indoors, the weather today is still sunny and sunny, with a refreshing autumn feeling.
The event was from afternoon to evening, so Naoki Nagayama and Akina went to do their own things in the morning.
Nagayama Naoki drove to the DreamWorks in Ota District. "High School 2" has been completed, but "Midnight Ring 2" is already in production~
“The popularity here seems to be a lot less~”
At the entrance of the factory, Naoki Nagayama said to Kyū Kijima next to him that there were only a few snack stalls left at the entrance of the factory.
"Because there are more actors in "High School 2"...there are far fewer movies now."
"Midnight Ring 2" itself only has so many characters, so naturally not many people will consume it.
"When several movies and TV series are produced here in the future, the popularity will naturally increase again~" Naoki Nagayama smiled, feeling very confident as he looked at this film and television base that was taking shape day by day.
When the scene is more complete, maybe it can be opened to other small film companies or independent directors~
Nagayama Naoki knew that the original plot of "Midnight Ring 2: Ring Again" linked the appearance of Sadako with the smallpox virus, and then put it on a scientific cloak, trying to create something similar to biochemistry.
The direction of ascension and so on...
However, this sequel was considered by the audience to be a purely silly work, and its reputation collapsed. It almost completely scrapped such a big IP as The Ring!
So Naoki Nagayama's natural choice was "Midnight Ring - Sadako Haunted", a later work!
Came to the scene of the hospital, which will continue the plot of the first part of "The Ring". After Takayama Ryuji and Asakawa Reiko found Sadako's body, the police took Sadako's cousin Yamamura Kei from Izu Oshima, the former
Come and identify the body!
The police informed Yamamura Kei that according to forensic identification, the corpse died about one or two years ago...
In the morgue, Yamamura Sadako's body was covered with a white cloth. Yamamura Kei originally said something to the police but only remembered Sadako's appearance as a child, so there was no need to lift the white cloth.
Suddenly, Yamamura Kei saw black hair spreading out from under the shroud of the corpse. Thick black hair slowly stretched out from under the skeleton, like an ever-extending vine, almost falling to the ground, and still there.
Keep growing!
This scene almost caused Kei Yamamura to have a cardiac arrest, but he disappeared in the blink of an eye... Hallucination?
"Anyway, let's cremate it immediately. It doesn't matter what ceremony you use!" Yamamura Kei just wants to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
However, the police insisted on finding specific information about the body...
Nagayama Naoki watched the performances of several veteran actors and sighed. Sure enough, this kind of sudden surprise scene is a test for his acting skills!
"Naoki-san?" Itou Shuichi looked at Naoki Nagayama, "How about this opening?"
"Morgue, corpses, supernatural...a little scary, but not that scary...very attractive~"
Naoki Nagayama said that in this movie, there are not many classic scary scenes, but in the scary atmosphere, anything you watch will be very scary!
And the more scared you are, the more people want to look down...
"For the scenes in the hospital and the medical examiner's office, Sadako's appearance had to be restored through bones and plasticine..."
Itou Shuichi said this and directed all the people to move... In fact, the office is in the next room~
The most important interiors of the entire movie are the hospital, the newsroom office, and Yamamura Sadako’s old house... These scenes were all condensed in DreamWorks, making the filming very smooth for the crew.
"When does Yuko-san's scene start?" Naoki Nagayama asked.
"Probably the day after tomorrow..." Itou Shuichi said, "Then the scenes between her and Yoichi will be filmed!"
"Yang Yi..."
"Yes, Yoichi-kun is played by Naoto Fujiki. His gloomy feeling is very suitable for horror movies..." Shuichi Itou said.
"...."
Alas, I was originally filming a comedy, but now I'm filming a horror film...won't it be a drama~
But these are not things Naoki Nagayama has to consider. This time he is just the screenwriter, and the main thing is to watch Shuichi-san.
.......
At the DreamWorks in Ota District, Nagayama Naoki took a look around and then rushed towards the studio with Kyū Kijima.
"Kijima-kun, the construction of the scene has been completed. There will be nothing to do without you." Nagayama Naoki said to Kijima Kyon beside him, "Next, you have to focus on your own project~
"
"Hi!" Kijima Kyor replied excitedly, "Naoki-san, for the production of "Love Century", I have almost finished drawing the storyboards!"
"...all?" Naoki Nagayama asked in disbelief.
"Hey, the main plot and the general scene!" Kijima Kyor said, "I even have an alternative for the filming location!"
"this....."
Naoki Nagayama feels that his little brother has potential in other areas, such as drawing comics and so on... Should he be included in next year's animation project?
"But in terms of actors...because it is an urban youth romance drama." Kijima Kyor said, "I think Momoko Kikuchi is very suitable for the heroine, but it is best to use a handsome young actor for the male lead..."
"..." Nagayama Naoki was about to nod, but saw Kijima Xu's eyes, "What are you looking at me for?!"
"Hehehe... Naoki-san, do you want..."
"don't want!!"
Naoki Nagayama flatly refused. Since he doesn't want to develop his career as an actor, he should do less of falling in love with beautiful actresses in TV dramas!
He is also a hot-blooded young man. He is in close contact with beautiful girls all day long, and what should he do if his gun goes off...
"Don't even think about it!" Naoki Nagayama said again in a stronger tone, "Are there no other suitable male artists in the entertainment industry?"
"As for the most famous ones, those popular idols from Johnny's are more suitable, such as Toshihiko Tahara, Kondo..."
Speaking of this, Kijima Kyon paused for a moment. All the old employees of Shuyou knew that Naoki-san seemed to dislike Kondo Masahiko very much...
I heard Shuichi-san say during the chat that it seemed that shortly after his debut, Kondo Masahiko stole Naoki-san's advertisement, and then had a conflict with Naoki Nagayama...
Therefore, Kondo Masahiko is not allowed to participate in all of Shuyou's film, television and even variety show projects, such as the very popular music station "Music Station".
As a result, Tahara Toshihiko, who was almost as famous as him, has surpassed him, and the rest of the junior team will start to catch up with Kondo Masahiko's fame~
The thought flashed away, and Kijima Xu continued: "Maybe we can also find it from the youth team..."
However, Naoki Nagayama feels that these people can play the role of a pretty boy, but when it comes to playing the role of a mature and charming urban prodigal, they are still a little bit worse...
"How is Xicheng Hideki?" Nagayama Naoki suddenly asked.
"Huh? Saijo Hideki?" Kijima Xu said in surprise, "His words... Saijo-san seems to be undergoing a transformation recently..."
"Ha, transformation and all that, isn't it just that we have no choice in the face of the younger generations who have suddenly emerged~" Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "You can try to contact him, Shuyou's project is now a rare and good opportunity in the industry.
..."
"Hi! I got it!"
Kyū Kijima also agrees. Speaking of which, Hideki Saijo was his idol when he was in school!
...
We drove while chatting about "Century of Love" and soon arrived at Shuyou's studio~
"Naoki-san?"
Xing Jiahua at the front desk was very surprised. It was almost noon and Nagayama Naoki actually came at this time.
Nagayama Naoki led Kijima Kyun and walked inside, leaving Suzuki Yunatsu at the front desk a little strange:
"Hua Jiang, did Naoki-san bring a stranger in just now?"
"Stranger?" Xing Jiahua recalled carefully, "Ah, that's Kijima Xusang... I didn't notice it just now."
"Kishima Kyor?"
"Well...he is..." Xing Jiahua said and suddenly got stuck, "Eh? What does Kijima-san do?"
"..."
Naoki Nagayama was about to arrive at the office. When he looked back, Kyoshi Kijima was wearing a coat, covering his golden Rolex tightly...
"Kijima-kun, please make preparations for your meeting with Saijo Hideki first. Then I will ask Otomo-san to help you contact him~" Nagayama Naoki said, and then asked, "When we meet, roll up your sleeves.
, otherwise Xicheng Hideki may not be able to remember you..."
"..." Kijima Xu was silent for a moment, "Hey, I get it!"
.......
"Otomo-san! Get me a spot to go to the FNS Gayo Festival!"
Seeing Yoshimura Otomo in the office, Nagayama Naoki opened his mouth and made a straightforward request.
"?"
Yoshimura Otomo looked at Naoki Nagayama in front of him, a question mark rising in his head.
"Naoki-san, what are you going to do again..."
"I just went to watch the excitement!" Nagayama Naoki sat down with a smile, "I don't have anything to do bad things..."
"oh?"
Yoshimura Otomo lowered his head and continued to look at the information in his hand,
"I remember... the FNS Music Festival is this afternoon, right?"
"Yes, yes, pre-selection!"
"Then why are you saying it now?" Fangcun Otomo rolled his eyes helplessly, "Other people have already arranged their seats..."
"This...didn't I just remember it just now~" Naoki Nagayama continued to apologize, "Otomo-san is so powerful, there must be a way!"
"...."
Speaking of which, this is indeed not a big deal, but Yoshimura Otomo is still a little curious.
"Naoki-san usually doesn't like to participate in such activities... I want to go this time... Oh, it turns out that Ms. Akina Nakamori will also participate!"
Now that I am old and mature, I immediately thought of the reason.
"Haha, yes... I just found out last night." Nagayama Naoki didn't mean to hide anything, "There is also this year's Red and White Song Festival, and I want to go there too~"
Others go to these events either for exposure or to socialize, but the president of his company goes there just to watch his girlfriend’s performance... He is really rich and willful!
But when I think about the agreement signed yesterday, I made a simple profit of 30 billion, and I still have to sell it in half a year... There are indeed conditions for willfulness!
Fangcun Otomo sighed:
"...Okay~ I'm going to make some calls..."
"Hi, Arigado!"
After solving this problem, Nagayama Naoki felt relieved and chatted with Yoshimura Otomo about other daily life.
Seeing that meal time was approaching, the two of them went to have a simple lunch together...
........
In the afternoon, Naoki Nagayama drove the Toyota Century to the Houjin Kaikan in Tokyo.
In the huge venue, the staff are still doing the final adjustments before recording, and the colorful and gorgeous stage has been heated up in advance, waiting to perform with the contestants.
"Naoki-san?" Just as Nagayama Naoki was peeking, a voice from the side came.
"Um?"
Nagayama Naoki turned around, and it turned out to be Chikako Aoyama, who was wearing regular clothes, and then there was Junko Ito...
Ah, yes, the two of them are the most outstanding female idols under Shuyou. Of course, they will have the opportunity to participate in the FNS Music Festival.
"Chikoko-chan, and Junko-chan, you are here!" Nagayama Naoki greeted.
"Is Naoki-san here to see us competing?" Chiko Aoyama asked happily.
"Forehead......"
Everyone who works in Shuyu knows that Naoki Nagayama pays very little attention to his idols. Except for the debut time and the report at the end of the month, he basically doesn’t pay much attention to the development of idol artists, let alone on-site encouragement and so on.
.
However, being looked at by Chikako Aoyama with such expectancy, Naoki Nagayama felt a little ashamed in his heart... As the boss of a management agency, he really cared too little about his artists!
Ito Junko has gone through such a long period of training in the entertainment industry, and has long been trained to be an adult. When she saw Nagayama Naoki's slightly embarrassed eyes, she knew that he was not here for the two of them, so she grabbed Chiko Aoyama's arm and smiled.
said:
"Haha, Chikoko-chan, Naoki-san probably came here after receiving the invitation~"
"Is that so~" Chikako Aoyama knew she wasn't here specifically to cheer, so she was a little disappointed, but she still asked, "Is Naoki-san the guest of honor?"
"Of course not, I'm just here to watch the ceremony~"
Naoki Nagayama changed the topic,
"Didn't you two change into singing uniforms?"
"The official start will be in the evening, and we have to go through it for the last time now, so we dress very simply..." Junko Ito explained.
"I see..." Naoki Nagayama nodded and could only say to them, "Daddy! You will definitely win the grand prize this time!"
"Haha, borrow Naoki Sangji's words~"
While walking and chatting, Naoki Nagayama, led by Chiko Aoyama and Junko Ito, arrived at the rest area where the participating artists were.
Naoki Nagayama saw more and more familiar faces, Seiko Matsuda, Naoko Ken, Toshihiko Tahara, Mari Yoshimura, etc. He said hello to those he knew, said hello and nodded...
It blends into this big pool like a drop of water.
"The FNS Gayo Festival is indeed one of the three major shows at the end of the year!" Naoki Nagayama sighed, "Almost all the popular idols are here~"
"Yeah...there are so many acquaintances~" Junko Ito said, and then she pulled Chiko Aoyama towards her common room, "Naoki-san, we have to go get ready, so I won't accompany you~
"
"Ah, okay~"
Nagayama Naoki didn't pay attention and walked towards the lounge inside.
"Junko-chan, you just threw Naoki-san aside!" After entering the common room, Chikako Aoyama pulled Junko Ito and asked.
"Chikoko-chan... don't hold out hope for Naoki-san~" Ito Junko nodded at Chikoko Aoyama's forehead like a big sister, "Naoki-san is obviously here to visit Banzhongmori Akina~"
".......Eh?"
Chiko Aoyama, who has always had fantasies about Naoki Nagayama, feels a little bitter in her mouth. Instead of coming to see her own artist, she actually goes to see other idols... Sure enough, domestic flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers...
.
Junko Ito came over and said again:
"I heard that Naoki-san and Nakamori Akina have moved in together!"
"!!!"
Chiko Aoyama looked at Junko Ito in shock,
"Todoroki?!"
"Well, I heard it from Otomo-san~"
There are no secrets in the entertainment industry, let alone more than one person who knows that Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori live together, but Chikako Aoyama is even more sad... and her hope is gone~
Now, I can only hope that the two of them live together and don't get along, break up before marriage, and change after marriage... Only then will she have a chance to rise to power, Chikako Aoyama!
In total, there are three more opportunities!
On the other side, Nagayama Naoki slowly found Nakamori Akina's lounge. According to her current status, she would have her own separate lounge even at the FNS Gayo Festival.
This time there was no agent guarding the door, and the name "Akina Nakamori Control Room" was written on a whiteboard at the door of the lounge.
Nagayama Naoki knocked on the door and heard a sweet voice:
"Please come in~"
Opening the door, a small Japanese room is divided into two parts, one is a dressing table, and the other side is a seating area with a sofa and TV, and even a dressing table...
"Naoki-san!"
Nakamori Akina, who had not yet put on makeup, had a bare face and was tying her hair with a towel. When she saw Nagayama Naoki coming in, she was surprised at first, and then a smile appeared on her face.
"Why did Naoki-san come here so early?"
"Because I want to see Akina as soon as possible~" Nagayama Naoki replied with a smile, and then looked at the lounge with great curiosity, "Are all the lounges so luxurious now?"
"Ah...this lounge..." Akina Nakamori said, "It took a lot of effort to get one together~"
The star's lounge depends on the celebrity position on the one hand, and on the other hand, it also depends on whether the firm will fight for it with all its strength... Akina, who signed a new contract, is now a temporary shareholder of Yanyin, of course with
The treatment was different before.
Nagayama Naoki sat aside and watched Akina put on makeup:
"Did you start putting on makeup so early?"
"Because it's a new makeup...it will take a long time to adjust..."
However, girls generally have to put on makeup for half an hour to an hour when going out. As a public figure, it is natural to spend more time putting on makeup...
"Naoki-san, you can take a rest on the sofa~"
Nakamori Akina said, and then started to brush her face with a small brush. Nothing changed on her fair cheeks...
However, Naoki Nagayama did not pass by, but instead started chatting:
"Purple lipstick..."
"Pair it with today's singing outfit...golden one~"
There is a golden tutu skirt on the hanger next to it. The songs selected this time are still "Ten Commandments" and "North Wing"...so I still use the previous singing clothes.
"Don't Akina have a dedicated makeup artist?"
"It's better to do makeup yourself~" Akina Nakamori said confidently.
Neon girls have been wearing makeup since they were in junior high school... Even though Akina doesn't wear much makeup, she is very proficient in it after being an idol for several years!
While chatting slowly, Nagayama Naoki watched Akina's face slowly change from a pure white makeup to a radiant and rich complexion. Her bright eyes were shining with stars, especially the purple lipstick, which glowed under the light.
Colored light, like an unreal fantasy~
This is the idol artist standing on the stage!
"Mingna, come here, let me kiss you uncle!"
"Naoki-san! This is in the lounge..." Akina Nakamori said coyly, "You can't do this!"
