866. Dont smile at other girls, youll get into trouble!
...
When you walk out of the airport gate, you will see the clear blue sky, and the clouds in the sky look so clean.
As the taxi started, Nagayama Naoki saw the distinctive European-style buildings and the densely packed huts clustered together in the old port area. These buildings have withstood the sea breeze for many years, as if they were coated with a layer of salt.
...
Facing the endless waves every day, the smell of spices and coffee wafts out.
A little further, we arrived at the hotel where Naoki Nagayama would stay today - Hotel Barrière Majestic, which is only two minutes away from the Palais des Festivals de Cannes.
"finally reached!"
Tanaka Yuko looked at the white marble building in front of her and couldn't help but sigh. Even in first class, a flight of more than twenty hours was very tiring.
"Yes, we're here!"
Nagayama Naoki is quite energetic. His young body can indeed withstand the torment, he can sleep soundly even on the plane, and now he is even more energetic.
On the other side, Itou Shuichi was different. The middle-aged man with a tired face said:
"Let's move in quickly...and have a good sleep!"
Nagayama Naoki looked at the sun in the sky, a little unbelievable:
"Xiu Yisang, it's just past ten o'clock, are you going to bed...Do you plan to sleep all day today? Don't you want to see the beautiful scenery of the city of Cannes? There is also the culture of a foreign country, okay
Delicious food to eat.....”
"Isn't it a small coastal town?" Itou Xiu walked towards the hotel lobby without looking back, saying as he walked, "Sea water, seafood, foreigners... isn't that what Tokyo's port area is like?
,What catches your eyes!"
"Anyway, I'm exhausted. I must have a good rest today!"
Naoki Nagayama and Yuko Tanaka looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. Shuichi Itou should be considered middle-aged.
Then he said to Takuya Fujiki, Naoto Fujiki, and other creative staff who came with him:
"Mina-san, let's check in first! If you want to rest later, you can rest by yourself, and if you want to go out for a walk, you can go by yourself... But it's best not to be too far away, even without a translator.
!”
"Hi~"
There were eight people coming to the Cannes Film Festival this time. In addition to the actors, there were also behind-the-scenes staff and translators.
The hotel they stayed in was an official partner of Cannes. It had very good facilities and had experience in receiving tourists from all over the world... More importantly, Naoki Nagayama had already seen many celebrities from various countries who seemed familiar to him.
When he came to his room, he saw that there was only one room with only one bed, a TV and a small counter... Naoki Nagayama sighed...
This is the first time I have stayed in an ordinary standard room abroad... People in the entertainment industry are either rich or expensive. The high-end suites and presidential suites have been booked early, and you can't buy them with extra money.
Open the suitcase, hang up the suits and other items, and take out the toiletries... Just after placing the luggage, there was a knock on the door of the room.
When he opened the door, he saw Yuko Tanaka, who had already put on a sun hat and sunglasses, standing at the door very happily:
"Naoki-san, let's go shopping!"
"Well, wait a minute!"
Naoki Nagayama turned around, picked up his camera, and followed Yuko Tanaka downstairs. The two of them had discussed it on the plane and wanted to take a stroll in Cannes... This is not Tokyo, and almost no one knows anyone.
Two people...
Although it sounds a bit ambiguous, there is a lesson from heaven and earth. In his heart, Nagayama Naoki and Tanaka Yuko are really just good friends, and both of them have people they like.
"Can Naoki-san speak French?" Tanaka Yuko walked in front, looking for the direction very excitedly.
"No...but I know a little bit of Italian, so I should have no problem speaking English in Cannes..." In this coastal town famous for its film festival, there must be many people who know English, so Naoki Nagayama is not worried.
"That's good~" Tanaka Yuko borrowed the travel album in her hand to find the right direction, "Let's go to the old town first! Then go to Cannes Bay~"
"Um!"
With that said, the two people headed towards the densely populated area.
Some people say that the old town of Cannes is the most charming place in the city. This southern French city has a long history and all the buildings maintain their medieval characteristics.
The ancient and magnificent castle shows the richness of history, the mixed brick and stone buildings shine in the sun, full of European style, there are also various European-style cabins, narrow stone streets...
Walking through the artistic neighborhood, you will soon be able to walk to the Castle Art Museum, where you can look up at the blue sky, blue sea, beach, palm trees... beautiful coastal scenery.
The collection in the art museum is very extensive, including various 19th-century musical instruments, paintings, and cultural relics, allowing people to travel through time.
"Naoki-san, I heard that Louis XIV's twin brother, the Man in the Iron Mask, was once imprisoned here, right?"
Tanaka Yuko was sweating a little on her forehead, but she was still in high spirits and asked while walking inside the museum.
"The man in the iron mask seems to be in another monastery offshore..." Naoki Nagayama knew the history in advance, "But no one knows whether the man in the iron mask is the twin brother of Louis XIV...
..There are rumors that he is his biological father~"
"Haha, it's so mysterious!"
The two walked to the larger storage room, where there were actually Egyptian sarcophagi and dried corpses of indigenous Africans... And this brave elder sister actually asked Naoki Nagayama to help take a photo with the indigenous African brother...
..
"Yuko-san, are you really not afraid of nightmares at night?"
"Hey~ This is no different from a mummy, there is nothing to be afraid of!" Tanaka Yuko was disdainful, and then despised Nagayama Naoki's timidity.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! With the attitude of talking and laughing while traveling, Nagayama Naoki and Tanaka Yuko walked out of the art museum, and then went all the way to the long-famous Coastal Avenue, where they can enjoy more
Food and wine by the sea.
........
Without Naoki Nagayama, life in Tokyo is still busy, and the world has not stopped turning.
After these two days of fermentation, the popularity of "Don't Stop the Camera" has completely exploded, and the audience's evaluation of this movie has become even more polarized due to the promotion of caring people.
There was even a film critic who publicly appealed to everyone in newspapers not to watch this movie, saying that he himself left the theater after watching it for less than half an hour.
"No matter who made the movie, if there is no desire for people to watch it, then it can only mean that it is a bad movie!"
There are some excited words in the comments,
"Even though they say I have to hold on for half an hour, I'm here to watch a movie! Why should I hold on? Reluctantly? Make myself uncomfortable? It's not like there are no other movies in this world!"
Such opinions really attracted some fans, and many newspapers began to take stock of other movies that could be watched during the same period!
In Shuyu's studio conference room, Otomo Yoshimura, Tomohiko Sugiyama, Eiichiro Watanabe and Souo Matsuo were all present. Faced with such an offensive of public opinion, everyone expressed their opinions.
"This is clearly Toei's trick!" Souo Matsuo said, pointing to the sorted movies to be watched, "How can a cartoon... be compared with "The Camera Don't Stop"? Both have different audiences.
ah!"
"Others just want to step on me and take advantage of it." Sugiyama Tohihiko was not excited, "There is nothing scary about little tricks to increase exposure!"
"However, the recent trend of public opinion in the media seems to be slipping in a direction that is unfavorable to tree friends." Souo Matsuo flipped through the newspaper in the middle of the stage and read some magazines, "Although there are still some sincere and objective comments, but...
....”
"Positive information is not as disseminated as negative information. This is natural!" Watanabe Eiichiro explained from the side, "But negative information will not last too long... Souo-kun doesn't need to
Too anxious."
"But....."
The young Souo Matsuo was not as calm as others. This was his first movie... Every negative message was a blow to him.
"Is there nothing we can do?"
"Of course... we have also invited trolls to increase the spread of positive information." Sugiyama Chihiko said, "So the current public opinion goes back and forth..."
Yoshimura Otomo, who had been listening, spoke:
"Naoki-san went abroad to participate in the Cannes Film Festival, so you should pay more attention to the current movie announcements. But there is no need to react too fiercely. Naoki-san has made an explanation. When he comes back, everything will be solved!"
Sugiyama Tohihiko frowned and subconsciously asked:
"Otomo-san, what is the probability of Naoki-san winning this time?"
"Well... Let's talk among us, at least 70%!" Fangcun Dayou whispered, "Don't spread it outside..."
"That's it, then when Naoki-san comes back, there will definitely be no problem!"
Sugiyama Tohihiko's confidence has greatly increased. If Nagayama Naoki comes back holding the Palme d'Or trophy, then he will be one of the top authorities in the neon film industry, and his reputation among the people will be greatly increased.
When someone tries to hack him, no one else will believe it!
After the meeting ended and several other people walked out, Yoshimura Otomo breathed a sigh of relief. This meeting was actually to appease people. Although everyone was asked not to spread the news, there are no secrets in the workplace!
When the news spreads, the centripetal force of the tree friends will definitely increase greatly, and they will form a rope to face the external comments... Although the centripetal force is still very high now~
"Naoki-san... come on! Contact the lobbyists as soon as you get to Cannes!"
He had no idea that at this moment Naoki Nagayama was leading a beautiful woman on the promenade in Cannes...
.........
When Akina Nakamori returned home in the evening, she turned on the light and saw Taro Taro happily coming to greet her!
"Hey, oh, oh, oh, Taro is very good today, isn't he?!" Akina Nakamori stroked the dog's head and said with a smile, "Aren't you lonely at home looking after the house alone?"
While teasing the dog, I walked to the living room. When I turned my eyes, I saw that the pillows on the sofa in the living room were messy and scattered on the ground. Two of them were bitten and the cotton was exposed...
Not to mention that the items on the coffee table were knocked over and some of the remaining tea in the teapot was spilled...
Seeing this, Nakamori Akina's mood fluctuated greatly, and then she immediately stared viciously at the dog that was still wagging its tail:
"Yangtaro, what on earth did you do?!"
"Woof woof woof....(Listen to my quibbles!)"
"I don't care, how dare you demolish your home as soon as Naoki-san leaves?! It seems like I can't do it without giving you a lesson!"
“Woof woof….. 嘤嘤嘤…”
The fur on his neck was suddenly grabbed, and Ying Tailang's original voice suddenly changed into "Ying Ying Ying".
Nakamori Akina brought Gouzi next to the evidence of crime and scolded her, and then heard the sound of Nakamori Akina's hand hitting Gouzi's head... It was so miserable...
Even Mew Taro retreated into his cat's nest, never daring to come out to scold... although he was partly responsible.
After scolding Gouzi, Akina Nakamori had to clean up the mess by herself...
She also understood that this was because Nagayama Naoki had been away for the past two days, and she was very busy. She left early and came back late and had no time to walk the dog. This left Taro's energy nowhere to vent, so she demolished the house~
But there is no way, we still have to reprimand Taro, otherwise what will happen if we get into the habit of tearing down the house every day...
"How about asking Maki-chan to help walk the dog tomorrow?"
Nakamori Akina thought that now her work is actually more regular, she either goes to the TV station or shoots music videos and photos. It takes half a day to go to one place every time. In fact, the assistant is not that busy in the middle.
After the sanitation was completed, Akina Nakamori took out the ingredients from the refrigerator and started making her own dinner.
Half an hour later, a dish and a soup were prepared and I sat on the huge dining table, eating a little lonely.
Looking up and around, the luxurious and spacious flat floor still looks very high-end and distinctive, but it is full of cold dead objects and seems too quiet.
Originally, when Naoki Nagayama was there, there were at least three dishes and one soup on the dining table, and it was quite lively for two people...
"Alas...On the third day of Naoki-san's trip abroad...I missed him again~"
"But it should be here today~"
You can't make phone calls on the plane, but you can call back when you get to Cannes.
Cannes is the East 1st District, Tokyo is the East 9th District, so now...
Nakamori Akina looked at the clock, it was already 20 o'clock... so it should have just been noon over there.
........
Nagayama Naoki and Tanaka Yuko found a small restaurant by the beach and ate local specialties of braised assorted fish and grilled pike, and drank a large glass of wine by the way~
Just as he was about to continue going to the beach in the afternoon, Naoki Nagayama looked at the time:
"Yuko-san...it's almost night in Tokyo now, I want to say you're safe..."
"Eh?" Tanaka Yuko looked at Nagayama Naoki in surprise, "I didn't expect Naoki-san to be such a good family man? Are you trying to tell your little girlfriend that she's safe?"
"Haha, yes~" Nagayama Naoki said with a hearty smile without the usual young man's shyness, "There is someone who worries and cares about you, of course you must cherish this heart~"
Tanaka Yuko looked at the hearty smile on Nagayama Naoki's handsome face, and felt his heart skip a beat. He didn't know whether he was struck by this free and easy way, or was moved by this seriousness towards feelings. He just felt that the young man in front of him was so proud.
Pleasant to the eyes.
"Naoki-san!"
Nagayama Naoki was turning his head to look for a place where he could make an international long distance call, when he suddenly heard this call which was strange.
"Yuko-san, what's wrong?"
Tanaka Yuko walked up to him and patted him heavily on the shoulder:
"When you meet other girls in Cannes, try to smile as little as possible! Otherwise, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble!"
"???" Nagayama Naoki looked confused.
Tanaka Yuko didn't explain much, turned around and strode forward:
"Let's go, I also want to make sure my family is safe! Look, there's a phone booth there..."
"Um...can calls be made to Tokyo from the phone booth in Cannes..." Naoki Nagayama followed him in confusion. He originally wanted to find a place where he could make international long distance calls.
........
"Moses Moses, this is the Yongshan family."
As Akina's voice came from the receiver, a smile appeared on Naoki Nagayama's face.
"Mingna, it's me!"
"Ah, Naoki-san!" Akina Nakamori happily sat upright on the sofa. She had been waiting for this call for a long time, "Have you arrived in Cannes?"
"Well, I arrived a few hours ago, but at that time I thought Akina might not have come home, so I didn't call." Nagayama Naoki said softly, "That's why I didn't call until now."
"Hmm~" Nakamori Akina was very happy when she heard her boyfriend's voice. She didn't care about those small details. "Naoki-san has been having a hard time flying these days, right?"
"Not really..." Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "I slept very well in the first class cabin!"
"That's good~"
"How is your family? Has Taro Ying caused any trouble?"
"It's causing trouble! I'm telling you..."
Nakamori Akina quickly told what Yotaro had done today, so that the dog next to her didn't dare to say a word.
Over there, Naoki Nagayama listened patiently and without any impatience. He also told Akina Nakamori about his initial experience in Cannes, and finally hung up the phone reluctantly.
This call lasted for almost an hour, and Yuko Tanaka on the other side was stunned:
"Naoki-san... I remember that you and Nakamori Akina have been dating for almost two years, right?"
"Well, there are about two months and two years left...What's wrong?"
"You must have passed the love stage, right? How can you still make a phone call for such a long time?"
Tanaka Yuko thought about herself, and now she and Sawada Kenji have fallen into a dull relationship... Ah, no, the underground love is actually quite exciting, but there are really not so many words to say on the phone.
"When I was in love, I had to make at least three hours of phone calls every day... This time, we just haven't contacted each other for three days."
Naoki Nagayama smiled, and after paying, he led Yuko Tanaka out of the telephone exchange. As expected, international calls were still not allowed in the phone booth.
"It's really enviable~ It's better to be young!" Yuko Tanaka sighed. The love of young people is indeed more energetic than that of her own age!
"What are you talking about, Yuko-san! Aren't you also a young man, beautiful and energetic!
When you were walking on the beach just now, many people were peeking at you!"
Naoki Nagayama smiled and said, although Yuko Tanaka is already thirty years old, she is already small, with a graceful figure and well-maintained skin. Her delicate and smooth skin is full of collagen. She looks like she is in her early twenties.
Walking on the beach in the cool weather is a sight to behold.
"Let's continue to visit Binhai Street now! I heard that you can go around the sea on a yacht~"
