878, just want to seize the right to host with empty words??
...
There’s nothing interesting about a foreign producer with a big beard that shows off his artistic talent, and it’s June again and the weather is very hot... not even the smell of alcohol and strong perfume in the club can stop him.
The smell of your body.
After meeting Naoki Nagayama made some official remarks, and then quickly left this guy in the care of the girls at the club. Anyway, when dealing with these people, money will do the talking~
Sure enough, they make money by serving customers. While laughing and drinking with this guy, the business smiles of the ladies and sisters have not changed at all...
As evening approached, Naoki Nagayama was taking a taxi back when he heard the latest news about Seiko Matsuda's marriage coming from the radio.
"The wedding of Matsuda Seiko and Kanda Masaki is on June 24th. Isn't it just a few days before we move?"
Naoki Nagayama murmured to himself, but the driver spoke to him:
"Miss Shengzi was really hurt in love, so she just found someone to marry...it's a pity that that person wasn't me..."
"..." Are taxi drivers in every country so cheerful?
Perhaps because he drank a little wine, Nagayama Naoki now has the urge to speak:
"How do you know that Seiko Matsuda was hurt by love? Can't it be true love?"
The driver said while driving:
"Hey... I have been dating Guangmei for four years. That is true love! We were one step closer to getting married, but we broke up in the end. Of course we were emotionally hurt!"
Nagayama Naoki insisted: "Isn't it okay to fall in love at first sight with Kanda Masaki?"
"Love at first sight?" the driver said in a disdainful tone, "It's always about lust... Love at first sight means coveting someone else's body at the first sight. Is that true love? That's despicable!"
"..." Naoki Nagayama felt that he had met a great driver, "Master driver, are you saying that Seiko Matsuda covets Kanda Masaki's body?"
"Men lust after women, women lust after men...it's all the same! Isn't that what happens between men and women!"
Hearing the driver's sober words, Naoki Nagayama stood in awe:
"Master driver, it seems you have been through a lot!"
"Hahaha, where is it? I call it 'Roppongi Custom Shop Compass'!" The driver waved his hand and handed over a business card. "If you want to find a place, handsome guy, just give me a call next time!"
"...Thank you..."
Nagayama Naoki finally reached out and took the business card. It was not for a custom shop or anything, he just wanted to make it more convenient when taking a taxi~
We hadn't reached the evening rush hour yet, so we arrived at the 80 Building after more than ten minutes of riding. Naoki Nagayama also got off the bus.
"Naoki-san, you're back!"
Security guard Kazushi Matsuzaki greeted Naoki Nagayama who just walked in.
"Hey, Matsuzaki-san, are you on duty so early?"
"Well, today is the night shift..." Kazushi Matsuzaki explained, and then took out two letters from the box in the duty room, "By the way... Naoki-san, here are you and Miss Nakamori
letters...."
"Ah, Arigado~"
After receiving the letter and exchanging a few brief greetings, Naoki Nagayama walked towards the elevator.
"It's actually from Sunny's Office? How do they know our address?"
Nagayama Naoki was a little surprised, but he soon felt relieved. His current reputation, address, etc. are already semi-open secrets to some people.
After opening the room and appeasing the dog who came over happily, Nagayama Naoki opened his envelope...
A platinum-gold invitation slid out. It was a wedding invitation.
"In that case, Akina's letter is also an invitation..."
Nagayama Naoki put Akina's letter aside, then sat on the sofa and read it.
The invitation clearly stated the wedding time and venue of Matsuda Seiko and Kanda Masaki, and there was also a receipt section. According to Neon's custom, Nagayama Naoki needed to confirm whether he would attend, and then send it back...
"Do you want to participate?"
Nagayama Naoki scratched the corners of his eyes. It seemed that he didn't have too many interactions with Matsuda Seiko... This kind of relationship was purely superficial in the entertainment world and could be avoided by just looking for any reason.
However, my first pot of gold indeed came from the song I wrote for Matsuda Seiko, and I once admitted that I was her fan...
"Forget it, let's ask Akina again when she comes back... If she wants to go, let's go together~"
In fact, Akina Nakamori and Seiko Matsuda are not very close, they just have an ordinary relationship where they meet and greet each other...
Although there is a problem of giving face in the entertainment industry, generally speaking, artists don’t have to go as long as they make up their own itinerary.
Looking at the dog wagging its tail, Nagayama Naoki put down the invitation:
"Come on, Taro Ying, go for a walk! Others are getting married, so I'll help you find a girlfriend!"
.......
After taking a look at the time, people in the office became a little anxious~
Normally by this time, Director Isao Morikawa of Kadokawa Pictures would have been getting ready to get off work.
But today...
Isao Morikawa peeked into the president's office next to him. Someone had been inside for a long time and was communicating with Haruki Kadokawa... Haruki Kadokawa didn't get off work, so of course he couldn't get off work either...
"Chun Shusang, please think about it again..."
Toho's public relations director Kenshi Morimoto is persuading Haruki Kadokawa,
"Having Toho join the organizing committee will definitely be very beneficial to the advancement of the Tokyo Film Festival! If Kadokawa is willing to support Toho as the organizer, it will bring the Tokyo Film Festival's influence to a higher level...
"
Kadokawa Haruki said with a smile:
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I very much agree that Toho wants to join...The Tokyo Film Festival is, after all, a grand event for the entire neon film industry, but it has become
The organizer...this is not acceptable!"
"Why not!" Kenshi Morimoto asked eagerly, "As Neon's oldest film studio, we at Toho have an outstanding reputation and are definitely qualified to support it! And we can provide a sum of funds as a
Tokyo Film Festival’s advance reserves..."
"Haha, Mr. Morimoto, Kadokawa and Shuyu are not short of funds and fame..." Kadokawa Haruki said directly, "Toho wants to directly intervene in the hosting rights, but this is not possible!"
"Haruki-san... Kadokawa and Shuyu are not the same family after all. Do you really want to see Shuyu living on top of Kadokawa?"
"Haha, why aren't they the same family? Kadokawa is Shuyu's second largest shareholder!"
Kadokawa Haruki laughed again, and then said seriously,
"Mr. Morimoto, it was actually a mistake for you to come to me about this matter. This plan was brought up by Naoki-san from Shuyu, and he was also the leader... Regarding the organizer, Naoki-san has the final say!
"
"That's not necessarily true!" Kenshi Morimoto showed a mysterious smile on his face, "Haruki-san, you also know that this Tokyo Film Festival can never be held by the two of you! The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Film Industry Association...
Everyone will want a piece of the pie!”
"Oh? You want to join forces to seize power?" Kadokawa Haruki was surprised.
"I don't mean that...but for such a big event, it's normal for everyone to think that Shuyou, a company that has only been established for a few years, may not be able to handle it!"
"Then it's normal to let companies with experience and qualifications come to help..."
Kadokawa Haruki listened to Morimoto Kenshi's words with an inexplicable expression on his face:
"So, choose Dongbao to take the lead?"
"Yes, Toho is deeply trusted by its superiors! It also has the ability and confidence to successfully host the Tokyo International Film Festival!"
"What about Naoki-san?"
Kenshi Morimoto smiled:
"Naoki Nagayama is an advocate of the Tokyo Film Festival, that's for sure! Director Nagayama will give a speech when the time comes..."
"...."
Listening to the words of the person in front of him, Kadokawa Haruki felt a little helpless. He just wanted to steal Naoki Nagayama's Tokyo Film Festival? Isn't it too naive...
"Boss Morimoto...do you think Naoki-san is so easy to deal with?"
Kenshi Morimoto shook his head:
"Naoki Nagayama is really difficult to deal with, but we are very confident this time!"
"Toho has contacted Toei, Nikkatsu, Shochiku..." Kenshi Morimoto said, "We have also communicated with the directors of the Image Promotion Association...will support Toho in the production committee!
"
"Really..." Kadokawa Haruki opened his eyes wide, seemingly very surprised.
After Takeshi Morimoto left, Isao Morikawa knocked on the door and entered the office:
"Chun Shusang, was it just now?"
"Toho's..." Kadokawa Haruki laughed, "These public relations people really can't believe it! People from Toei also said before that they had contacted other parties and wanted to host the Tokyo Film Festival.
, the people from Toho said the same thing today..."
"..."
"Maybe the Neon Image International Promotion Association will come forward next and ask for the right to host!"
Morikawa Isao echoed and smiled:
"Then we..."
"We don't care about them! You just want to seize the hosting rights with empty words? How is that possible?" Kadokawa Haruki shook his head, "Just wait...it will take a while, after the preparatory committee is formed, we will take action.
When you are serious..."
"I see...."
.......
After Naoki Nagayama and Gouzi returned from a circuit around the beach, when they arrived near the 80 Building again, the sun was already setting.
As I was walking towards the building, I suddenly saw a familiar figure pushing a stroller forward.
"Momoe-san?!"
Naoki Nagayama took two steps faster and greeted her,
"What a coincidence? You just came back from taking Yutaro for a walk?"
Yamaguchi Momoe turned around and saw Nagayama Naoki and the dog next to him with his tongue hanging out, and was a little surprised:
"Ah, Naoki-san...you just came back from taking Taro Taro for a walk? Shouldn't you usually be a little later?"
"I came back early today, so I took Yutaro for a walk in advance." Nagayama Naoki looked at Yutaro in the stroller and smiled, "Yutarou looks very energetic!"
"Yes, it seems that paparazzi are not allowed around here recently, so you can take him out to breathe fresh air often~" Yamaguchi Momoe originally did not dare to take the child out because she might encounter paparazzi.
But recently, it seems that a big brother of the Yakuza lives nearby. He gave the paparazzi who were always filming secretly a lesson and made them afraid to come. This made Yamaguchi Momoe relax a lot~
"I really want to thank that eldest brother of Ji Dao!"
"Haha, I really want to thank you~" The Jidao boss is right in front of you!
The two people were chatting and walking towards the building, and naturally they couldn't help but talk about what had just happened today.
"Momoe-san, will you and Miura-san attend Matsuda Seiko's wedding banquet?" Nagayama Naoki asked, "I have received the invitation, so Momoe-san should be too, right?"
"We also received it, Yuka and he should go..." Yamaguchi Momoe paused, "I probably won't go... Yutaro can't live without me!"
This is an excuse... But Yamaguchi Momoe has now retired and is considered a pure amateur, so it doesn't matter if she doesn't go.
Nagayama Naoki did not reveal it, but just sighed:
"A top-notch wedding in the idol world... the scene must be grand! I wonder how it compares to Momoe-san's wedding banquet..."
Yamaguchi Momoe laughed softly:
"It will definitely be more grand... and there will definitely be many famous people in the entertainment industry participating..."
Then he sighed again: "Wedding banquets organized by offices are all like this..."
"?" Nagayama Naoki was a little surprised, "Momoe-san seems to disagree?"
Yamaguchi Momoe paused, looked at Nagayama Naoki and said:
"If Naoki-san wants to get married in the future...it would be best not to be like Yuhe and I...
Our wedding looks very luxurious, but in fact it is all sponsored by brands, even the cake... We have to be interviewed and reported by the media at the wedding, all of which are to make money... not so much
It's a wedding, rather a business event..."
Naoki Nagayama listened to Yamaguchi Momoe's narration, and it completely matched his previous guess!
Sure enough, it's all business. Artists are about to retire. How could the agency hold a luxurious wedding for you for nothing? It's just relying on your fame to make another fortune!
"Momoe-san...you've worked really hard~" Naoki Nagayama sighed.
"There is no way, this is the price of a top idol getting married and retiring."
Yamaguchi Momoe smiled. Which artist before her could retire at the peak of her powers?
You can't quit just by talking about it. What about the liquidated damages in the contract? The firm relies on you to make a living. Can you let people go at will?
We had been communicating with the firm for a long time and signed many unequal treaties, including subsequent records, photos, copyright sharing, etc...
After walking, we arrived home. Before parting, Naoki Nagayama said:
"Thank you Momoe-san for the reminder! I will take it to heart!"
"That's good~"
Returning to the top floor again, after opening the door, Yotaro rubbed his paws and ran in. Then he heard Akina Nakamori's voice coming from the room.
"I'm back~"
After Naoki Nagayama called out, he saw Akina walking out with Nyaotaro in her arms.
"Naoki-san, you came back very early today~"
"Well, I went to meet someone in the afternoon and came back. I saw it was early, so I took Taro out directly~" Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, and then saw the open envelope on the coffee table, "Akina saw the invitation~"
"Well, Shengzi Sang's wedding banquet is unexpectedly so fast..."
Nagayama Naoki walked to Akina, picked up Nyaotarou and stroked him:
"Then, will Akina go?"
"Well..." Nakamori Akina picked up the invitation and looked at it, "I should go there...after all, it's Seiko-san..."
"Are you familiar with each other?" Nagayama Naoki asked curiously.
"How should I put it? They are just ordinary friends...but since the invitations have been sent, it would be a bad idea not to go..."
In fact, Matsuda Seiko regards Akina as her opponent, and Akina regards Matsuda Seiko as her senior... Of course she is amiable in front of the camera.
This time the invitations have been sent. If I don't go, it won't sound good in the entertainment industry.
Maybe there will be comments like "Akina Nakamori is petty" and "Idols all have one face on stage and another face off stage".
"Where's Naoki-san?" Akina looked at Nagayama Naoki and asked.
"If Akina is going, then I should go too..." Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "Please indicate on the receipt that we sit together!"
