802, you dont even know who the director is? Then what kind of film should you make?!
.......
After two days of soaking in hot springs in Hokkaido, Naoki Nagayama returned to Tokyo.
After all, the employees have gone back to work, but the boss is enjoying himself outside, which is indeed a bit bad...
"Eh? Wait, isn't that what being a boss is supposed to do?!"
Nagayama Naoki, who was driving, patted his chest and hit his remaining conscience hard.
"You are already a capitalist, so why do you need a conscience?"
With the end of the New Year holiday, the shops on both sides of the commercial street that were originally closed for the holiday have opened and posted New Year promotion posters;
People going out to work are bustling, and the office buildings that were originally locked reopened, welcoming office workers to start their new work;
Outside the car window is an increasingly crowded lane, with cars converging from the side roads to the highway, driving the blood of the city to flow;
It seems that everything has a new beginning. Only the still cold weather and the remaining snow on the tree roots in the corners remind people that it is still winter in Tokyo.
When I came to the studio, I felt that the originally spacious office area was full of employees and seemed a bit crowded... This year is the first regular meeting of the new year, and as usual, all employees
Want to attend.
"Good morning, Zhi Shusang~" Xing Jiahua was already working at the front desk, "Ah, it should be a happy New Year~"
"Haha, Happy New Year Hana-chan~" Naoki Nagayama responded warmly, and then asked, "Are Otomo-san and Shuichi-san both here?"
"Hi, we are all in the office." Xing Jiahua said, "Zhi Shusang, the big conference room is ready and can start on time at 10 o'clock~"
"Okay, thank you~"
Nagayama Naoki nodded and walked towards the office. Naturally, there were greetings from employees he knew along the way.
The greetings stopped when the office door was opened.
"Otomo-san, Shuichi-san!" Nagayama Naoki looked at the two old friends and smiled, "Happy New Year!"
"Hey, happy new year~" Fangcun Dayou nodded calmly.
However, Itou Shuichi looked at Nagayama Naoki with some grievance: "Naoki-san, I'm not having a good year this year!"
"?What's wrong?"
"You gave Otomo-san a New Year's gift, but you didn't give it to me~"
Itou Shuichi is worthy of being a director, and he must have studied acting in depth, and the tone of this green tea bitch is very vivid.
"...You mean that chair?" Nagayama Naoki suddenly thought of it.
"Oh... Naoki-san definitely didn't mean it. It's just that I'm not liked by others. I didn't even think about it when I was picking out gifts..."
Seeing that the level of tea talk had reached another level, Naoki Nagayama had two crosses on his forehead and couldn't help but hit Itou Shuichi on the head with a knife:
“Yitang, you guy, shut up!!!
If I had known earlier, I would not have said such things in front of you, but now everyone has learned in a decent way and even improved to a higher level!"
Yes, this green tea way of speaking was naturally passed down from Naoki Nagayama...
It was obviously just a joke while chatting, but unexpectedly everyone who heard it learned it and even improved in practice!
Pretending to be aggrieved, showing weakness, self-packaging, and concave personality are all revealed.
The girls in Shuyou Group are even more accurate in learning...
"Without Maojun, although it will be very hard, I will work very hard, hard, hard~"
"It's okay to love you with her~"
"Can she have my love for Taro? I won't be able to live without Taro..."
"...."
I heard that a few girls have won over other people's boyfriends simply by relying on their words!
There are also people who rely on this kind of tea talk to travel among men:
"Can't one have two true loves?"
"I'm just a weak woman who needs someone to accompany her and someone to rely on..."
"Compared to Shengjun, Hongjun is more important in my heart... But Hongjun is stronger. Shengjun will not be able to survive without me..."
In this era of high status for women, there are even sayings such as "a woman must have four boyfriends". This green tea trick is naturally very popular among men and women.
"This chair was promised to Otomo-san before, and it's not a New Year's gift~" Nagayama Naoki explained, "Besides, isn't it a New Year's gift for you?!"
Of the New Year gifts I purchased before, naturally every good friend would have one, and they were all given to my family during the Chinese New Year.
"That's a gift for my daughter!"
The Itouxiu family naturally bought gifts for Jiayi-chan. Is it possible that they would also buy them for adults?
"Alas...I discovered that as soon as a man gets married, all the gifts and favors are given to his family..." Itou Shuichi suddenly fell into emotion, "I feel like I am an independent person.
The attributes have disappeared! I also want someone to care about myself!"
After hearing this, Fangcun Dayou also said slowly:
"Yes, that's why we men go to the club. The young ladies there only treat us as independent individuals!"
"..."
Nagayama Naoki was speechless. Why did these two married people suddenly start to empathize? And what kind of fallacy is that!
"I say Otomo-san, please don't give such a high-minded reason for going to drink flower wine, okay? My wife is not here, we are all men, we know everything we should know!"
"Hey..." Fangcun Otomo seemed to express disdain and quickly changed the subject, "Naoki-san, today is the first regular meeting of the new year, do you really not want to say anything?!"
"I don't want it!" Nagayama Naoki sternly refused. He had already said it before he came, "I hate bosses who stand on the stage and talk nonsense!"
"We are going to announce this year's plan to all employees, so that they can set goals and work hard in one direction!" Otomo Yoshimura said seriously, "This is an essential process, just like taking the oath before a sports meeting!"
"Maybe it has this function, so I have no objection~"
Naoki Nagayama actually understands that this is an indispensable management link for every company as it grows bigger, but he really doesn’t want to go on stage to say it.
"So leave it all to Otomo-san!!!"
"You're so lazy!" Yoshimura Otomo shook his head and continued to lower his head and read the speech.
Nagayama Naoki started chatting with Itou Shuichi at this time:
"Shuichi-san, the announcement of "Midnight Ring 2" should be almost done, right?"
"Well, because it is a horror film, the promotion mainly relies on posters and specific nodes. I don't have to go to city after city for road shows... Now the late-night movies are almost all our movies..."
Yi Tangxiu nodded, and then told Nagayama Naoki,
"The people in the distribution class made some statistics and found that the box office in the first week was only about 80 million, and the total box office is expected to be only about 7.8 billion..."
"It's a horror movie, it's a sequel...that's almost it~" Naoki Nagayama nodded, but didn't say anything.
As long as a ghost appears once, the horror effect will be greatly reduced. The first "Ghost Chronicles" was able to reach such a high box office due to its special publicity strategy and overseas box office.
"I'll try to push overseas later. It would be best if I can hit one billion~" Itou Shuichi also nodded. Because he has the background of "Blue Sea", he can already accept this result.
"Shuichi-san, what movie do you plan to start with in the new year?"
Nagayama Naoki asked. The only script he has completed so far is "Umi Street Diary". "Love Diary" has been filmed by Kijima Kyon. He also has a copy of "Tokyo Love Story" in hand. Nagayama Naoki wants to
Take photos by yourself~
The others are all scripts for animated movies...the main direction this year~
However, as a film production company, we have naturally received a lot of new scripts in the past two years. All we have to do is choose from them.
"In the New Year... I want to make some in-depth movies..."
Yi Tangxiu touched his stubble and said, now he is no longer short of money, and now he is also the boss of the company... He was originally a bit of a literary person, but he also fell in love with it after "Blue Sea"
The feel of an art film.
It would be even better if you could make a literary film like Nagayama Naoki's and make money and win awards!
"Artistic film?" Naoki Nagayama was surprised, "Do you have a good script?"
"The company has received a lot of scripts, and I will also find some well-known screenwriters to create them." Shuichi Itou said, he looked at Naoki Nagayama, "But if it is Naoki-san's script, that would be even better!"
"...."
Coveting my brain again!
Nagayama Naoki shook his head: "If I have a good script, I will definitely tell Shuichi-san!"
"Haha, thank you very much!"
.......
"This year, we will form an assembly line-like film production process and build a complete shooting system at the Dream Factory in Ota District..."
Yoshimura Otomo spoke loudly about Shuyou Group's vision for this year at the regular meeting, but everyone in the audience was a little bored... These are things that the president and ministers should worry about.
"This year, Tree Friends will also explore the production of animated films, and initially plan to complete at least one animated film!"
"In terms of brokerage business, we need to build a hematopoietic system and hold talent shows..."
"...Promote the diversified development of idols..."
As each goal was put forward, the hundreds of people below became more and more sleepy. It was only the morning...
But at the end, Yoshimura Otomo slapped the table:
"The most important thing! This year, Shuyou Group will move to a new headquarters!!! A more spacious office area, a more modern office environment, a more convenient location..."
After hearing this, the employees woke up and began to listen carefully.
This is closely related to them!
After Fangcun Dayou finished his speech, he interacted and discussed with the employees present as usual. The key personnel who had been arranged in advance naturally asked a few questions about the new project, but more people were discussing the location of the new headquarters.
...
"Naoki-san, has the new headquarters been decided?"
Komori Masataka also curiously asked Nagayama Naoki.
"Not yet...but there are already a few options. I will go look at the houses in a few days..." Naoki Nagayama tilted his head and said, "But don't worry, they are all office buildings in the city center.
Very convenient!”
"Hi~"
.........
After going to work, the entertainment industry is naturally busy first. New songs and movies by various singers, and new year's development trends... will be revealed in the media.
Hideki Saijo, who had just walked out of a TV Asahi program today, met the media reporters who were covering various places.
"Mr. Xicheng Hideki, can you interview me?" "Hideki-san! Happy New Year!"
"Hideki-san...will we host Xicheng Hideki's younger brothers and sisters again this year?"
"..."
As a former top male idol, Hideki Saijo's influence is still very great, but after changing his agency in 1983, even the famous talent show "Hideki Saijo's Younger Brothers" disappeared.
Kawai Naozi was born in this talent show~
Thinking of this, Xicheng Hideki decided to stop and accept an interview:
"This year, my focus will be on transformation...I will spend more energy on my acting career, and I will not participate in talent shows for the time being!"
Seeing Xicheng Hideki stop for an interview, the reporters became even more excited:
"Does Hideki-san have any specific projects?"
"Hi, I have signed a contract with Shuyou and will start participating in the production of a TV series at the beginning of the year~" Xicheng Hideki didn't mean to hide it. Originally, the sooner the better for this kind of publicity.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Oh?" "Really?" "Which tree friend?" "Baga, of course it is the tree friend movie of Nagayama Naoki!"
Among the chaotic voices, a reporter asked:
"Hideki-san, what's the name of the TV series? When will it be released?"
"The name has been decided, it's called "Century of Love"~" Saijo Hideki said with a smile, "The specific release date has not been decided yet, it is expected to be during the cherry blossom season..."
“Oh oh oh!!!”
Love! The male idol is filming a romantic drama again!!!
"Who is the heroine who is cooperating?!" The hero is of course Nishiro Hideki!
"The heroine is a girl named Momoko Kikuchi~" Saijo Hideki continued to answer, "She is the heroine of "April Story"~"
"Todoroki?!" "So it's her!" "She's so cute!" "My type!" "Get out of here!"
A stable young boyfriend’s young and beautiful girlfriend, this is the current kingly love story!
Another reporter asked: "Is the director Naoki Nagayama?"
The scene suddenly became quiet. It seemed that the media was paying special attention to this name... Some time ago, "Summer of Kikujiro" was shortlisted for almost all the film awards!
"Haha, it seems that everyone is paying close attention to Naoki-san!" Faced with such silence, Hideki Saijo was stunned for a moment and responded with a smile, "But unfortunately, the director of this TV series is not Naoki-san! The screenwriter is
he...."
"Is that Director Yi Tang?"
"No~"
"Is that Director Komori who just finished filming "High School 2"?"
"Well...it's not..."
"This... Can't Hideki-san tell us directly?" The reporters were a little helpless. Is it necessary to squeeze out toothpaste?
"This... I really can't..." Xicheng Hideki's face was a little complicated at this time, as if he couldn't believe his own brain, "I... forgot about that director
What's your name..."
"No, no, no...I forgot what the director looked like! In my impression, there seems to be no such director..."
Xicheng Hideki was a little panicked. Such a thing would never happen to an artist like him!
Don’t remember the director of a movie or TV show you participated in?!
Which director would dare to use such an actor?!
At this moment, Hideki Saijo suddenly remembered what Naoki Nagayama said during the meeting:
"By the way, I remember this, this director has participated in almost all TV and movie projects of Shuyou Pictures, and his work is also very important. He is at the top of the list at the end of the movie!!!
However, due to the low sense of existence, it is very mysterious..."
"?"
The reporters present had expressions of disbelief on their faces. Hideki-san, you don’t even know who the director is, so what kind of film are you making?!
Besides, if you forget, you have forgotten. People make mistakes and horses make mistakes. Everyone can understand it. At most, you can laugh at it and it will be over in a few days~
Why do you lie to us about this? When we are three-year-old children?
"This is true! I guarantee it with my own personality!" Xicheng Hideki seriously assured in front of the camera, "You can go to Shuyou for verification, or you can look for it in the film production list of Shuyou... ah
, by the way, he was the assistant director in "Kikujiro's Summer"!!"
"..."
He actually guaranteed it with his personality. This is no small matter. In Neon, which values reputation, even in the entertainment industry, if the reputation is compromised, you may be banned!
........The reporters present were doubtful. Xicheng Hideki's reputation over the years should not be deceptive, right?
But after waiting for a while, they became excited again...
Anyway, there will be another eye-catching news topic tomorrow!!!
Whether it's "Xijo Hideki accidentally forgot about the director and actually lied to get it right in public!" or "Xijo Hideki participated in a romance film, the mysterious director is amazing!" will be the headlines tomorrow!
Our media can advance or retreat, and anything can be used as a news point!!
