In the next few days, Nagayama Naoki's life became regular.
In the morning, I drove to the Ota-ku studio to rehearse with the small crew, and then returned to Takanawa 80 Building in the evening, where I had dinner, walked, and shopped with Akina.
The paparazzi near the building were frightened several times by Yakuza, and even the diehards stopped staying nearby.
Momoe Yamaguchi and her family also felt a lot more relaxed. Akina and Momoe Yamaguchi got a lot closer and even went shopping together~
During the day, we came to the abandoned factory in Ota District.
"Naoki-san." Souo Matsuo, whose face was full of stubble, was full of confidence, "Let's start shooting today!"
Nagayama Naoki looked at several people in the crew, including the three Maoyan sisters, who looked very confident, and nodded:
"It seems like everyone is already familiar with it!"
"Hi!" said the lively Katagiri Ayuki, "I've run here several times! I'm so familiar with it!"
"Well, let's try it~"
Naoki Nagayama smiled, and then he saw several leading actors running around excitedly, preparing to start the real shooting.
At this time, Nagayama Naoki quietly walked next to Sakata Kongming:
"Sakata-san...remember, when they make a mistake later, they must use close-ups!!!"
"..." Sakata Kongming was helpless, "Naoki-san, how can you be sure that they will fail..."
"Ha, if it can be made in the first time, Souo Matsuo should win the Blue Ribbon Award for Best Director~"
Nagayama Naoki knew in his heart that only through repeated attempts over and over again could he complete the shot in one shot like a divine help for such a long time.
After finishing speaking, Naoki Nagayama was watching from the side, as if expecting everyone to make mistakes~
........
"Don't stop the camera!"
Souo Matsuo said this to the camera with a ferocious expression, completely violating the rule that actors cannot look directly into the camera lens.
But only in this way can we create a shock that breaks through the third dimension~
Immediately afterwards, all the actors began to flee in panic, while several zombies with very poor makeup were chasing after them...
Having said that, this is the third time we have to start from scratch... In the first two times, an actor accidentally fell, and in the other time, the camera almost hit him when he rushed out the door...
All of them made Yi Jing give up halfway~
At this time, Itou Shuichi, led by Ishikawa Katsura, walked to the abandoned factory.
Shuichi Itou was very surprised when he saw Naoki Nagayama watching comfortably on a small slope nearby:
"Naoki-san...you are too relaxed as a director!"
"Eh? Why are Shuichi-san here?" Nagayama Naoki turned around. Itou Shuichi's studio was being renovated, but the filming probably hadn't started yet.
"Come to visit the class..."
Itou Shuichi also climbed up the slope and looked down, and sure enough he saw the crew of "The Camera Can't Stop" chasing and recording spontaneously.
Seeing this kind of film shooting method that does not involve the director at all, Itou Shuichi was so envious that he said again:
"Naoki-san...it's so easy for you as a director!"
"What? I will also guide you during rehearsals, okay!" Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "Now is the time to enjoy the results!"
Itou Shuichi didn't understand:
"Didn't the script I read before say that the filming behind-the-scenes should be used as a real part of the film? Then you don't need to direct it?"
Suddenly a voice came from the side: "Kouaki Sakata is filming those behind-the-scenes videos!"
Naoki Nagayama and Shuichi Itou were startled. They turned around and saw someone standing next to them. It was Kyū Kijima who was filming "Century of Love".
"Kijima-kun, when did you come?" Itou Shuichi asked in shock.
"..." Kijima Xu was silent, "Shuichi-san, I came with you~"
"... Kijima-kun... remember to wear your gold watch next time..."
After a slight silence, the topic returned to the shooting again, Naoki Nagayama and others said:
“Remember the time we filmed ‘The Ghost Story’?”
"Of course...that was the first movie..."
"It's because of the rough filming and the slightly blurry footage that people feel it's real." Naoki Nagayama pointed at the crew who were noisy below, as if they were playing hawk to catch a chick, "Now in their hands
The camera and the arranged second shot will make people feel that this is a real novice shooting a shoddy movie..."
"And the various difficulties they encountered and their solutions are what the audience should understand...that is, the drama within the drama~"
"So that's how it is..." Itouxiu nodded, understanding a little bit, "This is why Naoki-san tries to minimize his interference!"
"Yeah, that's it~"
Nagayama Naoki said confidently,
“It’s all well planned!”
Itou Shuichi looked at Nagayama Naoki's face that looked very sincere, and complained in a low voice: "...I don't know why, but my heart is telling me that Naoki-san just wanted to be lazy..."
"...that's an illusion!"
He laughed happily on the hillside, and then watched the crew below making another mistake and interrupting. Naoki Nagayama walked up and began to understand the problems during the filming process, and prepared to solve them.
"Kijima-kun..." Itou Shuichi watched this scene from the outside, feeling very puzzled, "Do you think Naoki-san can really make an interesting movie this time?"
The crew below looks like a ragtag crowd. Don't let the movie show for half an hour and the theater will be empty!
"Naoki-san must have his reasons for doing this!" Kijima was so trusting in Nagayama Naoki, "Besides, haven't we read the movie script before...it's very interesting!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "...I hope it's not Naoki-san's Waterloo~"
During the lunch break, Naoki Nagayama, Shuichi Itou, and Kyū Kijima found a restaurant in Ota District for dinner.
During the chat, we talked about the current work progress~
"'Love Century' has also come to an end." Kijima Kyor said, "Naoki-san, is the hero really going to be late for the last episode?"
"What's wrong?"
"Being late at such an important time always makes me feel a little unstable...don't we really love each other?"
"Because he is a prodigal..." Nagayama Naoki said, "Guys who are born to be prodigal always have some worries and fears about settling down. This is an unknown to them..."
Itou Shuichi looked at Nagayama Naoki's explanation, couldn't help but nodded, and said to Kijima Xu:
"Naoki-san is right, this is definitely based on experience! I believe he is definitely not wrong!"
"...."
Nagayama Naoki was speechless, Shuichi-san, what are you implying?!
.......
In the afternoon, Naoki Nagayama did not stay on the set. They still needed to continue rehearsing anyway, so he hurried back to downtown Tokyo.
The commercial street in Ginza is still prosperous, with a dazzling array of domestic and foreign products. Naoki Nagayama was walking around the men's products area...
"To give face to middle-aged men..."
He glanced at a certain small blue pill and shook his head decisively... It was a bit too much to give this as a gift. Besides, I couldn't show off this to others.
Then walking down the road, Naoki Nagayama saw various tonics, including ginseng, wolfberry, angelica, and notoginseng... Traditional Chinese medicine is still very popular in Neon.
"Mingna's father doesn't seem to be bald either..."
After looking around, Nagayama Naoki bought some expensive medicinal wine, which can be used to save face when having a drink with friends...
Then I thought about it, it didn't seem safe, so I went to the clothing area and bought a brand-name belt... In the Showa era when suits were advocated, this was a very suitable gift for men.
After coming out of the shopping street, Naoki Nagayama stopped by Shuyou Capital in Ginza.
"Naoki-san, you're here!" Kanai Shuxiang welcomed warmly, "It's been a long time since I've been here~"
"Haha, I happen to be free today~"
Indeed, Naoki Nagayama has not come to Shuyou Capital since the sale of the demon stock ended. He came here today, on the one hand, he was just on the way, and on the other hand, he wanted to see how the capital preparations were going.
"Naoki-san?" Wonta Nakai in the office was very surprised after seeing Naoki Nagayama, "Why are you here today?"
"I went to buy something..." Naoki Nagayama handed over the medicinal wine in his hand. Naturally, he didn't just buy a little bit when he went shopping, "This is for you~"
"Oh? Ginseng medicinal wine?" Nakai Wonta was a little surprised, "I'm not old enough to take nourishment yet!"
"To maintain good health, we must start from a young age!" Nagayama Naoki smiled, knowing that there will be countless young people in their thirties suffering from diseases in the future, "You have been drinking wine every day in the past few years, and you have already been out of pocket.
, a small drink during dinner is good for your health~”
"...Since when did I go out to drink flower wine every day?!"
Nakai Wonta said dissatisfied.
"Heh... not every day, just once every other day, right?"
Nagayama Naoki is disdainful. It’s not just for words that men will become bad when they have money. He has the determination of two lifetimes. Others... Even Yoshimura Otomo, who is already in the second half of his life, is not staying in the club all night long every now and then.
?!
The question is about socializing, dinner parties...it's all about work, and the wife at home turns a blind eye. Anyway, as long as the household income is enough~
At this point, Wonta Nakai didn’t say much more. Anyway, it’s a good product. It doesn’t matter if you replenish it at home~
After laughing casually for a while, Wonta Nakai asked:
"Naoki-san, did you come here today to give gifts?"
"Of course there are more..." Nagayama Naoki also became serious, "It's April, I'm here to ask... how are the funds prepared?"
"Currently..." Wonta Nakai said, "Most of the funds have been remitted to offshore accounts. Currently, in our domestic stock trading accounts, we are only doing some small transactions and can collect funds at any time."
"Well...the trading platform regulated by the NFA (National Futures Association) has also been dealt with, right?"
"Hi, the contract has been signed and the transaction can be carried out at any time..."
The market for foreign exchange speculation is not yet complete these days. NFA has only been in operation for less than two years, and there are not many qualified trading platforms...
With the size of Shuyou Capital, if you want to speculate in foreign exchange, it is safer to invest in the New York foreign exchange market in the United States~
Listening to Wonta Nakai explaining the current progress, Naoki Nagayama didn't have much to say. The actual operation was still the specialty of investment professionals like them.
"In short... go long for the appreciation of the yen, and then convert it into US dollars after almost a while to buy high-quality assets in the United States..." Naoki Nagayama said, although he knew that after the Plaza Accord, the maximum exchange rate between US dollars and yen was 1:120
There are many, but he doesn’t know the specific time. The operation in the middle depends on Wonta Nakai. Anyway, he just needs to withdraw before the bubble bursts in 1990.
"Hey, I understand!"
Nakai Wonta was completely convinced of Nagayama Naoki, and then asked again,
"Naoki-san, which assets do we prefer when buying?"
"Of course it's real estate..." The first thing Naoki Nagayama blurted out was of course buying a house, but then he thought, "Wait a minute... Coca-Cola, Microsoft, Oracle, IBM, Apple...
.The stocks of these companies are not expensive, right?”
"Hmm...the first few are okay, but Apple..." Wonta Nakai pays great attention to technology companies because of his previous relationship with Naoki Nagayama, and would often inquire about information even in the United States.
"Apple's current market is not very good...the market share of personal computers is being seized by IBM..." Wonta Nakai said, "and I heard that the internal struggle is also very fierce. Chairman Jobs and the board of directors have not
The rumors about and have spread outside..."
"oh?"
Nagayama Naoki instantly thought that this would be the time when Jobs was kicked out of Apple, and that the next few years would be Apple's most sluggish period...
"When the struggle heats up, we start collecting Apple stock!"
"Um...Naoki-san, are you sure?" Nakai Wonta was a little unsure, "Apple seems to be out of step with the times...there are too many technology companies competing with it.
!Maybe it will collapse!”
"It doesn't matter, I think Apple has the potential to make a comeback... The acquisition of small shares is enough... it just needs to last a long time..."
Nagayama Naoki thought for a while, maybe after Steve Jobs regains power, Tree Friends Capital can become one of Apple's major shareholders...
Let Steve Jobs work for me?
Haha, I always feel like I’m getting revenge for buying an Apple and eating instant noodles for a month!
Although Wonta Nakai was a little skeptical, he still listened to Naoki Nagayama's idea... After all, facts have proven that following Naoki Nagayama is really rewarding!
.......
I stayed in Ginza for a long time, mainly to catch up with old times and communicate with various employees of the company. Otherwise, I would have thought that the boss of the company was gone after not seeing each other for such a long time.
After returning to Takanawa 80 Building, Naoki Nagayama walked towards the main entrance carrying the gifts he bought today.
"Naoki-san? Do you need help?" Security guard Kazushi Matsuzaki asked quickly when he saw Nagayama Naoki's hands full of things.
"I can handle the sticky tape~" Naoki Nagayama smiled, "Matsuzaki-san, you haven't seen any paparazzi around you lately, have you?"
"Hey, it's becoming less and less now..."
Kazushi Matsuzaki quickly reported that he knew why the paparazzi disappeared. Although Naoki Nagayama did not say that the previous Yakuza was related to him, Kazushi Matsuzaki was sure that Naoki Nagayama had definitely done something.
When Naoki Nagayama just came home the day before yesterday, he told him that there was a van outside specifically for paparazzi. Within an hour, he saw several strong men with tattoos coming over and beating up the paparazzi...
.
It was so fast that even the police had no choice but to come over and sweep the floor... Ah, take away the injured paparazzi lying on the road~ Those people seem to be getting more and more ruthless~
"That's good...these paparazzi are so ungrateful...they already know that there are Yakuza bosses living nearby, but they still come to harass..."
"Yes, yes, you are so ignorant!" Kazushi Matsuzaki repeatedly echoed, "Speaking of which, we have to thank that big boss!"
"Haha, that shouldn't be necessary... I keep it a secret just because I don't want people to know!"
"No, thank you!" Kazushi Matsuzaki's face was full of sincerity, "Thank you from the bottom of my heart!"
"...Okay~"
After chatting with Kazushi Matsuzaki for a while, Naoki Nagayama took the elevator to the top floor. After opening the door with the key, he saw a dog waiting at the entrance with its tail wagging enthusiastically!
"Yangtaro! I'm back!"
"Woof woof!" Gouzi's eyes were fixed on the thing in Nagayama Naoki's hand, and he smelled the smell of food.
"These are not for you to eat!"
Nagayama Naoki walked into the living room while talking, and then heard Nakamori Akina's voice,
"Naoki-san, are you back?!"
"Hi~" Nagayama Naoki looked at Akina walking out of the bedroom wearing home clothes and smiled, "I bought the gift for tomorrow~"
