994, he should be the one to take over! He’s so good at flattering!!
.......
Sunny winter morning...
Taro has always been very punctual. After waking up his master, he went to have fun in the spacious yard, wanting to check the bones or dog food that he had hidden before~
The frost that had condensed in the morning had been sunburned away, revealing the somewhat wilted leaves underneath. The vegetation that had endured the cold wind all night now stretched out its branches and leaves to embrace the hard-won warmth.
It's winter, and the cherry trees in the yard have lost all their leaves again, leaving only thin brown branches. There are only evergreen leaves left in the flowerbed, and not even a bud is visible...
"Akina..." Naoki Nagayama stood in front of the window, overlooking Taro who was having fun in the garden downstairs, and asked the newlywed wife who was arranging her clothes, "Do you think we should replace the yard with a batch of flowers?"
.... Like hyacinths or cyclamen?”
"What happened to the flower garden now?" Akina brought a suit and matched it with her husband.
"There are no flowers~"
"That's a normal law of nature~" Akina changed another tie and felt quite satisfied before she motioned Naoki Nagayama to put it on, "The flowers will bloom naturally when spring comes next year..."
"..."
But there are no flowers now... Naoki Nagayama originally wanted to say that the flower garden was just for beauty, but when he saw Akina's natural expression, he shut his mouth~
Forget it, just listen to Akina about this kind of thing, she is pregnant with the baby!
"Okay, let's pair this suit with a blue patterned tie today!" Akina looked at the effect on her husband's upper body and nodded...
She is now working less and less, and is focusing more and more on her role as a wife, taking care of the housework, preparing meals, and matching Nagayama Naoki's outfits, all of which are becoming more and more comfortable.
Akina also likes the feeling of taking care of Nagayama Naoki. After all, becoming a competent housewife is also one of her ideals.
Today Naoki Nagayama and Akina will go to Fuji TV to participate in the recording of a program. The two of them are participating together, so the clothes need to be well matched.
Another request for a favor... Originally, Naoki Nagayama and Akina were not planning to show up now, but their relationship with Fuji TV is indeed very good...
Eating in the morning is very simple, but very nutritious~
While waiting for the driver to arrive, Nagayama Naoki flipped through the morning newspaper and marveled:
"Neon people's attention is all on the entertainment industry... This year's Chinese character of the year is actually 'marriage'... It's the marriage between the two of us and Seiko Matsuda!"
"There are also other reasons... I heard that the marriage rate has increased a lot this year..."
The two chatted from time to time, having different views on the same thing...
"Maybe it will be the last glory...the marriage rate will definitely come down in a few years!"
"How could Naoki-san have such an idea...Isn't today's society prosperous?!"
"You won't get married if you are prosperous..."
This year is considered the first year of the bubble. In the next five years, the economy will get better and better. The stock market and the real estate market seem to never collapse. In the end, there are even ambitious plans to short New York.
In the bubble era, it was too easy to make money, and one person could live a good life.
It turns out that women with low status in neon have undergone subversive changes. Women's rights are rampant, and the idea of women's independent consciousness is widely popular. There are even situations where women are superior to men...
Those who can get married are all in true love! But how can there be so much true love!
Under such circumstances, how can the marriage rate increase?
Of course, these thoughts only circulated in Nagayama Naoki's mind. He had no intention of arguing with Akina... Arguing about this kind of thing can't lead to results, only facts can prove it.
Akiko's room arrived soon, and Naoki Nagayama and Akina got into the limousine specially provided by Yanyin together.
"Have Fang Zesang's future arrangements been finalized?"
Nagayama Naoki asked. After all, Akina will basically retire next year and won't have much work. A gold agent like Akiyuki Fusa cannot wait forever.
Ming Xingfang said while driving:
"It hasn't been confirmed yet, but I think I will bring Yanyin's new idol..."
"New idol?"
Ming Xingfang glanced at the couple in the back row from the rearview mirror and felt that it was okay to talk about it.
"Well, Okada Yukiko... we have been in contact with Kenyin for a long time~"
"Have you agreed, Yukiko-chan?!" Akina looked over curiously. She had only known to have contact with him in private before.
"almost....."
Nagayama Naoki is also very curious:
"Yukiko-chan is now a promising stock in Sunny Music. How did you persuade her?"
"..."
Ming Xingfang paused for a moment and then said:
"Yukiko-chan's contract is about to expire, but she is not yet an adult, and the custody is still in the hands of her parents... We went to her parents privately and put forward very good conditions...
..”
"Oh? So easy?"
Nagayama Naoki didn't believe it. This shouldn't be the biggest reason. Sunny Music would also put forward new conditions... Okada Yukiko's potential has been revealed, and the agency will not let it go easily.
"And..." Akiyuki Fusunori also let go, "We found out that the president of Sunny Music seems to have some bad rumors with Okada Yukiko... Let's talk about this.
I told her parents..."
"...."
Naoki Nagayama and Akina looked at each other, both knowing something in their minds...
Because in this era, many idols were underage when they debuted. After their debut, the guardianship obligation is with the agency. Therefore, in order to take care of the underage girls, the agency will let them live in the president's house...
Of course, this is also a kind of kindness. Most of the time, it is only for the idols with the most potential... For others, it is better to find a dormitory and send them there...
Wait, if you think about it this way, when Akina debuted, Hana Jianhe didn't take care of her like this!!!
Akina lives in her own apartment!!!
That's right, when Akina first debuted, she was not that famous among the same group of idols. She was chubby and could only be said to be cute... The sales of her debut song were not outstanding either...
Oops, I seem to have discovered some blind spot!!!
Nagayama Naoki quickly changed his mind and continued to ask:
"Did you have an affair with the president?"
A mature member of the opposite sex like the president of an agency is still very attractive to underage girls, not to mention that he also has absolute power over the artist's career...
"I can't say..." Akikofu said, "It's just a sign...some bastards witnessed the president of Sunny Music entering Okada Yukiko's room at night...and the internal workings
There were also rumors among the staff..."
"The important thing is that the president's wife has clearly objected to Okada Yukiko continuing to live at home and wants her to move out! The news has spread widely..."
"Anyway, we have communicated this to Okada Yukiko's family...and Yukiko-chan is currently under a lot of pressure. Sunny Music Office treats her as a commodity, and she can also find out!"
"Whether it is career, mental or emotional, she is in pain now... She has depression... and may even have suicidal tendencies..."
"So relocating at this time is also a chance for her to take a breather... Of course, Yanyin will pay a corresponding price..."
Akina listened as if she was listening to gossip... She also knew that the first year or two of idol debut would be very difficult, but she didn't expect that Yukiko-chan was already inclined to commit suicide.
"When will Yukiko-chan move here?"
"Because there are still some scheduled businesses, it will be until April next year... But after the New Year, Yanyin will take over, and the four-month period will serve as a transition period..."
"That's good...."
After learning about Okada Yukiko's relocation, Nagayama Naoki wanted to continue asking some questions, but Yamazakura-in was not far from Fuji TV, and it was already there in the blink of an eye, and he was no longer interested in talking.
.......
Many reporters have gathered at the entrance of Fuji TV. I don’t know where I got the news. Today, Akina Nakamori and Seiko Matsuda will come over... and they will bring their families with them~
When the car stopped at the door, many reporters gathered around it.
"Akina-chan, did you come here with Naoki Nagayama today?" "Akina-chan, how confident are you about the Record Awards?"
"How's the rehearsal for the Red and White Song Concert going?!" "..."
Of course, there are also people who want to interview Naoki Nagayama:
"Director Nagayama, how is the production of the new movie going?" "Mr. Nagayama, what do you think about the wedding scene being exposed?" "Naoki-san, can you allow Akina-chan to work after marriage?" "Akina belongs to everyone.
Yeah, you can’t hide it!”
"...?"
I don’t know when a strange fan sneaked in... but was pushed away by a group of reporters~
After Naoki Nagayama got out of the car, he walked around the back of the car and took Akina out. He had a gentle expression on his face, but he didn't say a word... He had to maintain this coldness,
He doesn’t accept interviews casually!
Akina said embarrassed words to the reporters, and also picked one or two questions to answer, such as "I will do my best for the Record Awards..."
"Regarding the leakage of photos, friends in the media circle should resist this invasion of privacy... Artists' private lives are also personal privacy... Regarding this matter, Yanyin has officially filed a lawsuit
~”
"..."
Such a murderous answer made the reporters a little stunned for a while, and even a little bit at a loss... They had never been so directly contradicted by their idols, and it was usually the agency that issued such a statement.
You know, even big names in the entertainment industry, at most they just avoid answering reporters.
Looking at the back of Akina Nakamori walking into Fuji TV, a reporter was stunned for a moment and sighed:
"After Akina-chan got married, she seemed to be a lot sharper..." "Yes, I have had conflicts with reporters before, but I never felt like this... How should I put it?" "I feel confident.
Bar?!"
Everyone nodded in agreement after hearing this. Although the guy guarding him remained silent, no one felt ignored!
However, some reporters were naturally unconvinced:
"As an artist, there should be no privacy! When we reporters do this, everyone is paying attention! Akina-chan also gained a lot of popularity because of us in the past! Why has she turned against you now?"
"That's right..." "Ungrateful..." "Wait, don't say that!"
Naoki Nagayama and Akina naturally did not pay attention to the discussion behind them. After the two of them walked to Fuji TV, they were greeted by many acquaintances, leaving them no time to reply.
"Naoki-san, over here..." Nishirumi led the way. She was the one who contacted Naoki Nagayama and the others before, "The live broadcast room of "Kanji of the Year" is on the fifth floor..."
"Is Kyoto ready?"
"Hmm, a lot of people have come to Kiyomizu Temple... People from the Kanji Ability Test Association have also arrived."
Today's program is a live broadcast, with live writing in Kyoto, and a satellite relay live broadcast in the studio at the same time... We have invited guests who are closely related to this year's candidate kanji to come and do interviews.
Of course...the most famous ones are the two couples related to the word "marriage"...
"Seiko-san!" Akina Nakamori called out in surprise as she walked into the studio, and greeted Seiko Matsuda inside, "Long time no see!"
"Akina-chan, long time no see...the TV station also invited us..."
"Sangzi-san's complexion has improved..."
“Of course you’ll look better if you don’t work!”
"..."
Watching the two women chatting together like this, and then whispering like good friends, laughing from time to time, Naoki Nagayama was still amazed by the quick familiarity between the girls...
On the contrary, it is difficult for men to be so quick...
For example, now he and Kanda Masaki only nodded and had basically no contact with each other. They looked at each other and then smiled slightly awkwardly.
"Kanda-san, my regards...what have you been busy with lately?"
"I'm filming a TV series..." Masaki Kanda said politely, "Nagayama-san, what have you been busy with lately?"
"Making a movie..."
"Smoking?"
"No smoking, no smoking..."
".....hehe~"
"Hehehe~"
They look like two idiots!
In fact, this is because there is a big gap in age and status between the two people, and it is just the opposite. The younger one has a higher status, so it is very embarrassing...
If in a private setting, the two of them talk about their careers, their married life, and complain about their respective wives... we will get to know each other quickly after we interact with each other, but now we have to live broadcast, too
Too hasty.
"Currently, the host of Kiyomizu Temple is fasting, waiting to write this year's annual kanji..." The host talked in front of the camera, motioning the camera to turn to the side, "But before that, we invited and this year's
Guests closely related to the Chinese Character of the Year...please share their views on the Chinese Character of the Year..."
"Now I invite you Mr. and Mrs. Seiko Matsuda and Masaki Kanda!"
There was warm applause in the studio...
"Nakamori Akina and Nagayama Naoki couple!"
The applause and cheers in the studio reached the sky...
Hearing the cheers of different intensity, Matsuda Seiko's face stiffened slightly. This was of course a blow to her very enterprising spirit... However, the expression on her face immediately turned around, revealing her iconic expression.
Sweet smile......
The entertainment industry is very realistic. Matsuda Seiko has not been exposed for more than half a year, and her current popularity is naturally not as popular as Nakamori Akina, who just got married and her wedding photos were leaked and made big news!
"Both of them are newlywed wives. How do you feel about the Chinese character for 'marriage' in the year?!" The host turned the topic to the two female idols.
"I think..." Seiko Matsuda spoke first, still with a sweet smile and voice, "Marriage is the happiest and most beautiful thing in life... Everyone chooses this word, which shows everyone's pursuit of happiness and beauty.
It’s consistent…”
Sure enough, she is the most perfect female idol! Fake Da Kong said it directly with the mainstream words... and it makes people feel very sincere...
When the camera turned to Akina Nakamori, Akina burst out laughing before she picked up the microphone and even thought of hiding behind Naoki Nagayama...
Nagayama Naoki raised his arms, turned around and whispered something funny... This kind of intimacy was something that Seiko Matsuda and Masaki Kanda couldn't perform!
The audience present also laughed...
"What...what's wrong?" The host was infected, "Akina-chan is so happy! You still want to hide?"
"Because I think...the feelings I expressed are too childish..." Akina adjusted herself and said to the host, "I couldn't help but laugh..."
"Nani Nani?" the host asked, "What do you think?"
"I think people who choose 'marriage'..." Akina sat upright and said to the camera, "just like children, they want to be surprised when they see other people getting married...like to join in the fun.
....."
"Joining in the fun?" The host was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "If you say that, it seems to be the case..."
"Ah...Seiko-chan is getting married, let's go and have a look...Ah, Akina-chan is also getting married, let's go and have a look and feel happy...Ah, this year's
The Chinese character of the year has 'marriage'... We also went to join in the fun... Hahaha~"
The host couldn't help but laugh, and the studio became lively. Everyone seemed to think that joining in the fun was very appropriate... and it made those who voted for marriage feel happy.
After all, it's the end of the year, and everyone hopes to be blessed and happy...
Although it is regarded as the childish behavior of a child...but what happened to the child? Children are inherently innocent and sincere!
Who is not a baby anymore!!!
The atmosphere in the studio is getting better and better, and the host also asked other guests for their thoughts. The other alternative Chinese characters actually represent Neon's important achievements this year!
Including "Ei" which is very related to Nagayama Naoki...
The Palme d'Or, the Tokyo International Film Festival, and other major events in the film industry. This year's film industry can be said to be a year of rapid development, and it has spread neon culture to the world!
It’s definitely a milestone time!
"Naoki-san, what do you think of the word 'ying'?"
Naturally, Nagayama Naoki would not be so nonsensical and said very seriously:
"The achievements of the film industry this year are obvious to all...Thanks to the strong support of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology...specialists like Section Chief Yasuko Ikebo were dispatched to guide...otherwise the Tokyo International Film Festival would not have been possible
A complete success!”
"Of course, there are also film studios such as Shuyu, Kadokawa, Shochiku, Toho, and Toei, all of which have sent capable personnel..."
"Especially the jury, under the leadership of Shohei Imamura..."
This is a live broadcast for a national audience!!! The Chinese character of the year has attracted a lot of attention since last year, and the number of people watching it is almost one-tenth of the population of Neon!
At this time, how to do face-saving projects, how to manage upwards, how to unite comrades... Naoki Nagayama has taught everyone a lesson!!!
"This guy Nagayama Naoki... really deserves to be in the top position!!!" A thoughtful person silently studied in his heart, "He is so good at even flattering!!!"
