After entering August, the weather starts to get hotter and hotter~
Even though he drove to Ikebukuro in the car, Naoki Nagayama felt as if he was tanned by just a few steps from the main entrance of the parking space company.
"Good morning Naoki-san~" Xing Jiahua at the front desk greeted with a smile, "It's very hot today~"
"Yeah... I really don't want to go out." Nagayama Naoki complained.
"Then why don't Zhi Shusang enjoy the cool air at home?" Xing Jiahua said with a smile, "You don't need to work~"
"Who said that even a rich man like me needs to work!" Nagayama Naoki was surprised, "Huajiang, you have to know that being the boss is not just about enjoying happiness all day long. There is pressure behind me.
It’s so big!”
"Just think about it, every day when I open my eyes, there are hundreds of people from all over the company waiting for me to eat, drink, eat, drink, and eat... Just the electricity bill I pay every day makes me so worried that I can't sleep at night!
!!”
"...."
Xing Jiahua rolled her eyes when she heard this. If being the boss is so hard, why not leave it to me? I'm definitely not afraid of the hard work anyway!
After feeding the little girl a bowl of poisonous chicken soup at the front desk, Nagayama Naoki came to his office with satisfaction, and then leisurely read the latest magazine on the table in the cool breeze of the air conditioner...
....
"What kind of contract did Seiko Matsuda sign?" Nagayama Naoki complained while looking at the report in a magazine called "Women's Own", "Even their honeymoon has to be photographed.
Interview...."
You know, after Momoe Yamaguchi got married, her honeymoon was a completely private trip. Even though she was surrounded by the media, she only held a press conference.
Matsuda Seiko's honeymoon was more like a show... Not only did it have photos and reports, but she even managed her expressions while playing...
"Tsk tsk tsk~"
About half an hour later, there was a knock on the office door, and Kijima Xu walked in.
"Naoki-san."
"Ah, Kijima-kun is here~"
Nagayama Naoki closed the magazine, walked to the sofa and sat down. He came to the company today for business, mainly about the filming crew work of "Midnight Diner".
"Kijima-kun, how are you?" Nagayama Naoki stared into Kijima Kyor's eyes, "My 'secret army'?"
"...."
Kijima Kyū had a lot of complaints at that time, what is the "Secret Army"! Naoki-san, are you playing with the two-thorned ape?! But they were all suppressed by the strong reason.
"A team of nearly ten people has been mobilized." Kijima Kyor said as he handed over a list, "Including Kōaki Sakata, whom Naoki-san is familiar with, and Souo Matsuo..."
"Oh? It's very good!" Nagayama Naoki was relieved, "Did Shuichi-san not notice it?"
"...Shuichi-san, there are actually not many people here." Kijima Xu opened his mouth slightly, but he still said, "Actually, the filming of "Umi Street Diary" has come to an end, so most of them can be taken from
Transfer it over there..."
""Umi Street Diary"?" Nagayama Naoki didn't pay much attention to it during this period, and he didn't know that they had actually come to an end.
"Hey, I'll shoot some more shots and it will be completed." Kijima Kyor said, "So the shooting team is free... Plus, it is originally used to train the new generations, so there are more people."
"In addition to meeting Naoki-san's request, I can also gather together the filming team of "101 Proposals"!"
Listening to Kijima Kyor's story, Nagayama Naoki was filled with joy. This was good things coming together!
"That's great! Originally, I thought "101 Proposals" would have to wait until autumn to be filmed!!!"
"...."
Kijima Xu was stunned for a moment before he realized that he and Naoki-san had already made up their minds to delay their project!!!
But a few days ago, I was still comforting me... I have one thing on my mind and another on the outside... e=(′o｀*))) Sigh... It really should be guys like you.
Make big money!
After continuing to talk about the progress of "Umi Street Diary", Nagayama Naoki seemed to find that Kijima Kyon's expression was a little uncomfortable and a little frustrated. As soon as he turned his head, he thought of the reason... Although he had so planned in his heart
Yes, but I’m always a little embarrassed when I’m discovered...
"Ahem~"
Strategically change topics,
"Kijima-kun, speaking of...the preparations for "101 Proposals", other than the filming team, are there any problems? Tell me, maybe I can help~"
Kijima Kyor's eyes lit up, as expected, his performance just now was indeed effective!
Doesn't this take advantage of Naoki-san's guilt and take advantage of it?
As expected, I, Kyū Kishima, have the potential to make a lot of money!
"Naoki-san...Actually, other aspects can be overcome...but..." Kijima Kyor said in an embarrassed tone, "As for the heroine, I have never been able to find a suitable one.
Actors...."
The heroine of "101 Proposals" is a beautiful cello player, tall and slim. According to later generations, she is a proper goddess... In the entertainment world, she can be thought of as a goddess at a glance.
There are not so many tall actors who are goddesses...
"That's it..." Naoki Nagayama couldn't think of a suitable person for a moment after hearing this, but he didn't refuse, "Then let me think of a way!"
"Thank you so much~"
Kijima Xu bowed very respectfully and thanked him. He could get help with just one bow. It was so worth it!
........
After seeing off Kijima Xu, Naoki Nagayama also came to the office of Otomo Yoshimura.
"Otomo-san, you're still busy..." Looking at his old friend wearing reading glasses while handling documents, Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "It's almost time, do you want to go have lunch together?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "No...it's too hot and I don't want to go out...and...I have a lunch box!"
Fangcun Dayu refused without mercy. In fact, in the past few years since he became rich, he has not treated himself badly in terms of food and drink. Especially as Shuyou's main diplomat, he also participated in many banquets and was tired of eating delicacies from mountains and seas, wine and delicacies.
!
After eating too much delicious food and drinking too much fine wine, in the end, the nutritious bento made by his wife is the most suitable for his stomach~
"Hey~~ I was bullied because no one made lunch!" Nagayama Naoki sneered, and then said, "If that's the case, then I'll enjoy the seafood feast by myself!"
"Ah, by the way, I won't be coming over this afternoon..."
"Akizu Sack!" Yoshimura Otomo asked, "Didn't you say you were going to attend the Tokyo International Film Festival?"
"Is there anything you need me to handle?" Nagayama Naoki looked at Yoshimura Otomo and asked.
"Of course, the final plan has been detailed. The venue, itinerary, invited guests... these all need Naoki-san to be concerned about!" Fangcun Otomo's face was full of doubts, "In the final analysis
,This is an activity initiated by Naoki-san!"
"Hahaha~" Nagayama Naoki laughed, "Don't Otomo-san know that the so-called initiator is someone who proposes an idea and then leaves everything to other people to do it?!"
"!!!Nagayama Naoki! Don't even think about blaming everything on me again!!!"
Yoshimura Otomo suddenly became anxious and called Naoki Nagayama by his full name. He knew his friend's personality and style very well! As long as he could be lazy, he would definitely be lazy to the point of making people question his life!
"Otomo-san...don't be so angry~ anger will hurt your liver!"
Nagayama Naoki lazily collapsed on the sofa,
"Otomo-san doesn't have to worry about everything... Just like me, I just need to pay attention to the progress... Otomo-san just needs to assign most of the work to the people at the next level! That's it.
It’s a lot easier!”
"It can't be that easy!" Fangcun Otomo sighed, "This is an international event, and it affects the reputation of tree friends and even Neon!!! No mistakes are allowed! It definitely needs better people to carefully prepare this event
everything!!!"
"Haha, Otomo-san, there is no need to be so serious~" Nagayama Naoki sat up a little straighter, "This world is just a grassroots team, no one is necessarily better than others..."
Seeing that Yoshimura Otomo still looked serious and concerned, and even thought there was something wrong with Nagayama Naoki's words in his eyes, Nagayama Naoki had to give him a little explanation.
"Let's just talk about the "Tokyo International Film Festival Plan (Final Edition)" you just mentioned..."
Naoki Nagayama picked up the document on his desk,
"I initiated the original idea, Otomo-san acted as the coordinator, the people on the preparatory committee provided opinions, and Hayano Riko recorded the meeting minutes... But in the end, I actually revised it word by word and wrote the plan down.
However, it is a very junior employee - Ochiai Yosoe."
"I remember she's only been here about a year, right?"
Nagayama Naoki looked at Yoshimura Otomo and said,
"Can you say that this planning document is not excellent?"
"Hey... Naoki-san, what do you mean by this?" Yoshimura Otomo seemed to understand, "This planning document is a combination of our precious opinions..."
"Pfft~~" Nagayama Naoki shook his hand, "When we were discussing, we were just nitpicking... We were grabbing a small place and desperately trying to show our importance in the event!"
“Does it really matter whether the signs are round or square?” “Does it really matter whether the trophy is made of pottery or copper?” “Does it really matter whether the theme color is blue or green?” “…
.”
"In fact, if we take away their suggestions and implement the first version of the planning document simply drafted by Ochiai Yosoe, the Tokyo International Film Festival will still become an international film festival that people will remember!"
Although he knew that Nagayama Naoki was telling some fallacious truths, Yoshimura Otomo was unable to refute it for the moment. Instead, he felt that it seemed to make sense...
In the end, Fangcun Otomo could only say one sentence bitterly:
"Naoki-san, you are making excuses!!! In fact, you just don't want to be busy with these things!"
"Haha, what you said is right!" Naoki Nagayama did not continue to argue, but his face became a little more serious, "Otomo-san, but one thing is right... you have to assign the work.
!”
"Since moving to the Shuyu Building in Ikebukuro, Otomo-san has been working late every day, right..."
"Of course!" Fangcun Dayou was a little proud, "Now the company is developing rapidly, and all kinds of things are complicated..."
"The work is endless!" Nagayama Naoki interrupted him, "In the past, when there were only less than a hundred tree friends, Otomo-san could only care about everything by himself. Anyway, the workload is not too much.
.”
"But now there are more than 200 employees! Otomo-san is already too busy!" Nagayama Naoki said earnestly, "In the future, there may be 300, 400, 500 people... What will happen at that time?
Woolen cloth?!"
"..."
Fangcun Dayou was speechless.
Nagayama Naoki continued: "So at this time, you must learn to delegate power! Let the people below take more responsibilities and liberate yourself!"
"Otomo-san, you should spend your energy on dealing with people in the entertainment industry, on more important things such as discussing projects and expanding your contacts... rather than on those specific jobs!"
In a few years, Yoshimura Otomo transformed from a senior broker to the head of Shuyou Group. He was never taught how to manage a large company, so he naturally developed the habit of caring about everything and wanting to catch it.
The mood in the hand.
In fact, most founders are like this~
It was fine when I was a small company. After all, I had worked hard in the entertainment industry for so many years and I knew all the work. But as the company grew bigger, my energy and ability were revealed to be insufficient~
What Nagayama Naoki said made him feel a little enlightened...
"Naoki-san...you have never opened a company, right? How can you speak so eloquently?!"
"Haha, born!"
Naoki Nagayama curled his lips, the information in the future is so advanced, courses like MBA are a must-have course for middle and senior managers of every Internet company!
"Isn't it really because you want to be lazy, so you thought of it on the spur of the moment?" Fangcun Otomo looked suspicious.
"...Otomo-san, would you like to give it a try temporarily?"
"...."
Nagayama Naoki stood up: "Okay, after talking for a long time, I'm hungry, I'm going to have a seafood dinner! That's it!"
After finishing speaking, I have to leave the office~
However, Yoshimura Otomo stopped him:
"Wait, I'm coming too!"
"Eh? Don't you have a lunch box?"
"It's okay...I want to eat seafood too!"
........
In the coastal town of Shizuoka, an izakaya that has existed for decades has recently changed its appearance.
Nagayama Ken was cooking dishes neatly on the brand new chef's table, while Nagayama Aoki also walked into the kitchen area to help after clearing away the table that the diners had just left.
The spacious stove allows two adults to operate it together without feeling crowded!
"Ken-san... the izakaya is indeed much more spacious after the renovation!" A familiar diner praised Nagayama Ken and turned around to look at the brand-new tables, chairs, walls, etc., "Eating here is like
It’s the same as eating in a high-end restaurant!”
As soon as these words came out, the old customers started to cheer together. They were all old friends for more than ten years, so they were naturally happy for Yongshan Ken.
"Yes, yes!" "It's completely new!" "..."
"Because... it needs to be used as a scene..." Yongshan Ken didn't know how to speak, and his face was red at this time, "The one in the past didn't work well..."
The eldest brother Nagayama Aoki brought the set meal and explained to his father:
"Because it was used as a filming location for a program... so I upgraded it. The previous izakaya was too small and old!"
"Oh? Is a program going to be filmed here?" "Is it your second son, Naoki Nagayama's program?" "When?"
This news naturally caused all the diners to ask questions.
"About August..." Nagayama Aoki said, "Naoki will come to Shizuoka to shoot..."
"That's it~" "Speaking of which, I haven't seen Naoki Nagayama for a long time..." "That's right, he is a busy man after all~"
"Speaking of which, who knew that dull boy would turn into the celebrity he is today!"
"Yes, it turns out that Naoki-kun is the one who inherited Ken-san's character. His silent manner is exactly the same..."
This is a small city, and most of the people present have met Naoki Nagayama... When he was in junior high school and high school, Naoki Nagayama would come to the izakaya to help out and earn pocket money...
Time passed by inadvertently, like a blink of an eye, and the dull boy in the small county town turned into a big shot that they all looked up to~
"Naoki is still preparing in Tokyo~" Nagayama Aoki talked to everyone and explained a little, "I will bring the program team over when the time comes..."
"Will there be big stars in the show?" "Like Naoki's girlfriend Akina Nakamori?" "Are there any other celebrities in the entertainment industry?"
Regarding this point, Yongshan Aoki was not sure and could only nod vaguely:
"Maybe...it's a TV show, there should be celebrity guests~"
While everyone was having a heated discussion, one diner suddenly thought that if this place was used as a film set, wouldn't it mean that it couldn't be used for eating?
"Aoki-kun...how long will the show take to film? Will the izakaya be closed by then?"
"Ah, where are we going to eat like that?!" "Yes, it was very difficult during the renovation a few days ago!"
"..."
This question started another discussion among the diners, and Nagayama Aoki had to explain again:
"We won't close! In fact, we will extend our business hours!"
"The program Naoki is filming this time is called "Midnight Diner", and it will be filmed at night...so we will still do business during the day...we will only give them the venue late at night.
.”
"Speaking of which, Naoki said that if there are normal guests who are hungry during the filming, they can come to eat... Anyway, it will be me and my father who will do it... You just need to be here
Just eat next to it~”
"Maybe we can even appear in the show!"
Saying this made the discussion among the diners present even more heated. The small izakaya was like a lively tavern~
Watching this lively scene, Yongshan Ken also laughed and was very pleased that his izakaya could have such a lively scene.
And in the small town of Shizuoka, there is also a midnight ghost story called "Midnight Diner"...
If you are very hungry at night, don’t be afraid when you push past an izakaya with a late-night restaurant sign and see guns and cannons inside, because they are filming a show!
Ignore them, just order with the manager and sit down to eat in silence and you'll be fine!
