The autumn air is crisp and the sky is just right~
Days like this are perfect for holding large-scale events, sports games, film festivals, etc.!
Next to Yoyogi Park in Tokyo, thousands of people gathered outside the NHK Hall. The red carpet roads were crowded with people, all of whom came to watch the Tokyo International Film Festival.
If it weren't for the iron railings and security personnel maintaining order, even the red carpet might have been crowded.
Cheers, music, salutes, explanations, pushing, scolding, and voices from nowhere... The noisy sounds permeated the entire venue, and some even sounded like a larger market.
Just as noisy~
"Hurry up! Junsui-chan!"
Relying on her slender figure, Tsuruko squeezed forward in the crowd, and from time to time she would turn back and pull her best friend Junsui Ishii.
"If we don't hurry up, we'll miss Brando!"
"Tsuruko-chan, don't you have tickets to the venue? Why do you have to come here to the red carpet..." Junsui Ishii finally squeezed in next to Tsuruko and complained in a low voice, "And it's Naoki-ni.
The ticket for the front seat given by Jiang..."
"There is still a distance in the hall, but nowhere is it as close as the red carpet!"
Tsuruko always had a good reason. She relied on the squeezing skills she had learned on the rush hour subway, and while protecting herself, she quickly moved to the iron railing and pulled Ishii Junsui over.
The people who were originally squeezed out of the way didn't know what to say when they saw two young and beautiful girls... they mumbled a few words and then pushed aside... anyway, now it's either you or I who are pushing against each other.
you.....
"She probably hasn't come yet!" Tsuruko wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, then looked towards the red carpet, "Marlon Brando!"
The red carpet road is still relatively empty, and there are more media reporters standing next to it. They want to interview the celebrities on the red carpet for publicity... These all have media cards and belong to
Official staff of the Tokyo Film Festival.
"It's still early. The opening ceremony has just started. I don't know when it will come!"
Junsui Ishii complained, holding a compact Sony camera in his hand. This is a high-end product... Tsuruko borrowed it from Naoki Nagayama and gave it to Junsui Ishii just to take pictures.
To take a photo of myself and my idol...
"It doesn't matter, it's good to see other celebrities too!" Tsuruko didn't care, "Chunsui-chan sees your idol, I'll take pictures for you too!"
"Hi~"
The two of them talked almost through their ears, because the noise next to them was indeed a bit loud, and it was so noisy that people could not hear clearly.
At this moment, the crowd in front suddenly started making noises, because a Toyota Century stopped at the entrance, and then two figures who stood out from the back stepped out...
Naoki Nagayama was dressed in a smart black suit, with a tie around his neck and hair oil on his head, looking like a handsome young boy. The other person who held his arm after getting off the car was naturally Akina Nakamori.
!
Akina is wearing a pure white suspender dress and a mature lady's bun. The makeup on her face is not rich, but a little light, but more dignified...
The pearl earrings on the ears complement the snow-white skin. Coupled with the white dress and high heels on the slender figure, the whole person looks as noble and elegant as a white pearl~
One is a popular top idol, the other is a famous director and writer, and is also the initiator of the Tokyo International Film Festival...these two people appeared on the red carpet, which naturally aroused the attention of reporters and fans at the scene.
Attention, like a bomb exploding in the water, the turbulent noise quickly spread from the entrance to the end of the red carpet~
As the two of them walked along, the click of the shutter, the white light of the flash, the cheers of the crowd, and the enthusiastic calls of fans... seemed to be following them all the time~
"Naoki-san, look this way!" "Akina-chan, smile!" "Come this way..." "Come closer~" "..."
"Tsuruko, it's Naojuni-chan!" Junsui Ishii shook Tsuruko's arms excitedly in the crowd and shouted excitedly, "He's here with Akina-chan! So handsome! So beautiful! Ah!!
!”
"Hey, hey, hey~ I know it's Nee-chan!" Tsuruko helplessly looked at his best friend going crazy, her mouth still stiff, "It's not like I haven't seen it before! Junsui-chan, please calm down!"
"Ah~~Naojuni-chan is so handsome! Akina-chan's dress is also beautiful! Her pearl earrings are also beautiful!"
Junsui Ishii's eyesight was very good, and he saw two people approaching from a distance, and quickly handed the camera to Tsuruko.
"They are coming! Hurry, Tsuruko, take pictures for me later!"
"..." Hezi became more and more helpless~
When Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori on his arm came nearby, Junsui Ishii waved his arms quickly:
"Naoki-san! Akina-chan! Here, here!!! Look here!"
Naoki Nagayama was walking slowly, letting the media on both sides of the red carpet take photos... At this time, he naturally saw Junsui Ishii waving, and his wife standing beside him with a camera in his hand.
Sister, she took two steps and walked to the side of them...
Akina Nakamori smiled and waved to the two people, while Naoki Nagayama next to him asked,
"Why are you two here?" "Aren't there tickets inside the venue?"
"Tsuruko wants to take a photo with Brando!" Tsuruko was a little embarrassed and didn't reply, while Ishii Junsui said with a smile, "I want to take a photo with Naoki-san and Akina-chan!!! Is that okay?!"
Nagayama Naoki looked at his sister holding the camera, shrugged and looked at Akina~
Nakamori Akina naturally nodded happily:
"of course!"
After saying that, the two of them bent down slightly and stood with Ishii Junsui across the iron fence, asking Tsuruko to help take pictures... When they were done here, Akina walked to the other side and took Tsuruko's arm.
, pulled Naoki Nagayama to the other side and asked Chun Shui to help take pictures...
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This made other fans next to the two girls extremely envious, and they also shouted loudly to take photos with Akina Nakamori and Naoki Nagayama...
However, the two of them had no choice but to apologize to them, then smiled and waved and headed towards the inside of the venue... There were still media reporters there for interviews!
After walking to the interview area, the reporter's microphone was stretched out:
"Naoki-san, please wait a moment!"
"Hi?"
"Excuse me, you and Ms. Akina Nakamori should be the first guests to arrive today. Why are they so early?!"
"Because..." Nagayama Naoki said helplessly, "I am the organizer...I will receive the participants later!"
"..."
It turned out to be a perfectly legitimate reason... In an instant, the reporter felt that his question was in vain!
He quickly changed direction and asked Nakamori Akina: "Akina-chan, Akina-chan... Your look is so beautiful today!!!"
"Arigado~" Akina pursed her lips and smiled solemnly to express her gratitude.
“Is this an image specially created for the Tokyo International Film Festival?! This is the first time I’ve seen a white suspender dress!”
"Hi, this is indeed my first time..." Akina Nakamori nodded, "Because it is my first time to participate in this kind of international film festival, so I want to be as formal and steady as possible..."
"Like a white pearl!"
"Arigado~"
"..."
The two of them walked on the red carpet for almost ten minutes, which was less than 100 meters away... It wasn't until the next wave of celebrity guests arrived that Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori entered the NHK hall.
Go inside the main venue.
"Mingna, you go to your seat first...I'm going to help receive the guests..."
Nagayama Naoki saw Itou Shuichi, Yoshimura Otomo, and Kadokawa Haruki also at the entrance... Although the opening ceremony had a professional etiquette company and a master of ceremonies to help guide it, as the organizer,
Shuyou and Kadokawa still have to express their attitude!
"Hey, Naoki-san, go and do some work~"
Nakamori Akina didn't say anything and went directly to her seat... After all, this was not a private social occasion, and she was not a member of the organizer. Even as a fiancée, she was just one of the guests.
Seeing Akina heading towards the seats in the front row, Nagayama Naoki strode towards Itou Shuichi and others, and together they began to greet various guests...
As time went by, more and more guests began to arrive. After seeing a few people here, they would come over to say hello.
"Yuko-san, you're here!"
Seeing that it was Tanaka Yuko, Nagayama Naoki immediately welcomed him.
"How could you not come to Naoki-san's event!" Tanaka Yuko was also wearing a formal dress. She came with Takakura Ken. The two co-starred in "Yasha".
At this time, Takakura Ken and Kadokawa Haruki finished saying hello....
"Mr. Takakura Ken, welcome~" Nagayama Naoki shook hands with Takakura Ken and said hello, "Please take care of me~"
"Where is it!" Takakura Ken said with a smile, "Please take care of Naoki-san in the future~"
After sending this group off, next is an acquaintance, Mieko Harada...
"Mieko-san, long time no see~"
Mieko Harada had a cheerful smile on her face: "Naoki-san didn't even give me a chance to cooperate. Of course I haven't seen it for a long time~"
"Haha, there will be many opportunities for cooperation in the future..."
"..."
"Matsusaka-san....Welcome to the film festival~" The beautiful lady in front of me is Matsuzaka Keiko...we only met a few times~
"Naoki-san, you are really full of energy and handsome!"
"Where, where~"
"..."
In this way, each of the guests who came to the film festival exchanged polite greetings with a few people, and then walked into the venue... Even the foreign celebrity guest, Naoki Nagayama, was able to say a few words.
, after all, he is now a high-end talent who can speak four languages!
Just when Nagayama Naoki was a little too busy, a voice suddenly sounded beside him.
"Naoki-san!"
Nagayama Naoki saw his acquaintance Higuchi Kananko, still wearing a black veil... There was some resentment in his eyes, full of Japanese beauty~
"Kanako-san~Long time no see..." "Welcome to the Tokyo International Film Festival..."
"Naoki-san really held a great event!"
Higuchi Kanako has been filming recently, and I haven't seen Nagayama Naoki for a long time. It's incredible to see such a huge momentum at the Tokyo International Film Festival.
"Haha, this is all supported by everyone in the entertainment industry!" Nagayama Naoki said a few polite words, and then sent Higuchi Kananko into the entrance.
When he returned to his original position, several other people looked at him with incomprehensible eyes...
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, Naoki-san...it's really popular with girls~"
"?Huh?" Nagayama Naoki was puzzled, "I'm just greeting the guests like you guys!"
"Haha~" Kadokawa Haruki said with a smile, "Didn't Naoki-san notice? Every female star and artist will definitely say hello to you first!"
Itou Shuichi added: "And I spent a lot more time chatting with Naoki-san than the rest of us!"
Yoshimura Otomo made the final blow, "In the end, it was Naoki-san who sent the person in..."
"..."
Nagayama Naoki couldn't refute for a while...
Just at this time, huge cheers rang out from the door again, and several people looked out in unison:
"Looks like he's some big star!" "Who could it be?" "Sayuri Yoshinaga?" "I don't see it...there are so many girls cheering..." "Some male idol?"
"..."
Just as several people were guessing, a figure in a white suit slowly walked to the entrance hall of NHK and turned around to wave to the fans outside...
"It turns out to be Jackie Chan!" Kadokawa Haruki sighed, "This is no wonder!"
The other two people also nodded... In this era, Jackie Chan's fame in Neon is extraordinary! Even local stars may not be able to compare to it~
Of course Nagayama Naoki knows Jackie Chan, it can be said that he is very familiar with him... It's just that Jackie Chan and he have no intersection now, this is the first time they meet!
"Wele, Jackie!" Kadokawa Haruki obviously knew Jackie Chan, and knowing that he didn't speak Japanese, he went up to say hello in English.
"Thank you!" Jackie Chan enthusiastically gave Haruki Kadokawa a hug.
Knowing that neither Jackie Chan nor anyone else knew him, Kadokawa Haruki helped introduce:
"These are people from the organizers of the Tokyo International Film Festival. This is Director Yoshimura Otomo..." "This is Director Shuichi Itou..." "This is Director Naoki Nagayama...
..."
In this era, Jackie Chan is already a well-established international superstar. He has connections in various countries. In addition, due to his personality, he likes to make friends with people...
Although he couldn't remember their Japanese names, Jackie Chan still said hello to several people in Japanese with a smile on his face:
"This is our first meeting, please give me some advice..."
"Sir, please give me some advice..."
When they arrived at Nagayama Naoki, Jackie Chan held Nagayama Naoki's hand and still greeted him in unfamiliar Japanese, but Nagayama Naoki laughed and said directly in Chinese:
"Just call me Naoki Nagayama...Brother Jackie Chan, are you here alone this time? Why didn't you bring a translator?"
"Translators can't walk on the red carpet, come from the side..."
Jackie Chan replied subconsciously, and then looked at Nagayama Naoki with a surprised look on his face. He just subconsciously thought he was talking to a Chinese.
"You...can speak Mandarin?"
"Well, I can speak a little bit of Cantonese..." Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "But I'm not very familiar with it..."
"Are you an overseas Chinese?"
Jackie Chan couldn't believe it, because Naoki Nagayama's Mandarin sounded like an authentic Chinese, no different from those he met in China, without any neon accent at all!
"Haha, no..." Naoki Nagayama laughed, "Maybe he was Chinese in his previous life~"
"...Your Mandarin is so authentic..." Jackie Chan became even more enthusiastic. After he came to Neon, due to the language barrier, he mostly talked to his entourage and not to the locals.
After chatting, "Let's have a good chat later!"
"Haha, Brother Jackie Chan, when the film festival is over, let's go out to have a meal together?" Naoki Nagayama said.
"Okay!! But forget about the Japanese food, it's all Japanese food these days..."
“I know an authentic Sichuan hotpot!”
"That's great~"
"..."
While chatting like this, Jackie Chan was sent into the venue...
The other three people looked at Nagayama Naoki and Jackie Chan communicating in Mandarin familiarly, and their eyes widened...
Kadokawa Haruki poked Yoshimura Otomo with his elbow:
"How come your Naoki speaks Chinese so well?"
"...Naoki-san..." Yoshimura Otomo knew Nagayama Naoki could speak Chinese, but he didn't expect him to be so proficient. However, he couldn't show his cowardice at this time, "He is a genius! What's the big deal if he can speak Chinese?"
.....He can also speak German! Oh, and can he also speak Italian or Spanish..."
