After receiving the news, Oshiro Shoji hurried back to the office. He pushed open the door of the president's office and saw Masahiro Nakamura who was typing on the keyboard of his laptop.
"Is there something I need to deal with?"
"Shoji, have you been drinking?"
Instead of answering Oshiro Shoji directly, Nakamura Masahiro noticed that his face was a little red and asked with concern: "You didn't come back by car, did you?"
"Don't worry, I'll take a taxi back..."
Oshiro Shoji waved his hand and sat down opposite Nakamura Masahiro. He said energetically: "I know you can't drive after drinking."
Uh... Now that Ojo Shoji has said so, Nakamura Masahiro is too lazy to dwell on the other party's drinking problem.
He glanced at Shoji Oshiro opposite him, then turned the laptop on his desk and pointed the screen directly at Shoji Oshiro.
"Nakamura-san, is this an advertising plan?"
Looking at the laptop in front of him with some confusion, Oshiro Shoji subconsciously moved closer to the screen and took a cursory glance.
"If I guess correctly, it's the cooperation with the Cultural Promotion Fund?"
"Well, now that the movie has been filmed, the cooperation with the Cultural Promotion Fund must also be put on the agenda..."
Nakamura Masahiro nodded slightly, and after giving Oshiro Shoji a positive answer, he leaned back on his chair and calmly said: "As for me, I will soon participate in the film's promotional activities. You can help me with the preliminary work.
Let’s make preparations.”
"Nakamura-san, this collaboration with the Cultural Promotion Fund is going to go back to Kanazawa for filming, right?"
Shoji Oshiro frowned and looked at the planning content on the computer screen. He looked up at Masahiro Nakamura with an expression on his face.
"If you shoot in Tokyo, everything will be more convenient. But if you go back to Kanazawa to shoot, it will be more troublesome. Many things need to be transported from Tokyo..."
"You don't need to worry about this..."
Raising his hand to appease Ojo Shoji, Nakamura Masahiro said in a firm tone: "If you need anything, you can borrow it from Hokuriku Broadcasting first. If it's not available there, then transfer it from Tokyo."
Not to mention that Nakamura Masahiro's father is now the director of Hokuriku Broadcasting. Even with the relationship with the Cultural Promotion Fund, it is easy to borrow things.
In Tokyo, a city with many government departments, the Cultural Promotion Fund may not be noticeable at all. But in the remote Hokuriku region, its network and influence are destined not to be underestimated.
On the one hand, the Cultural Revitalization Fund has official attributes and has a very close relationship with the government. On the other hand, the funds it raises come from well-known local companies, which forms a complex network of interpersonal relationships.
"Okay, I will arrange it as soon as possible..."
Since Nakamura Masahiro has said so, Ojo Shoji can't say much. His job is to help Nakamura Masahiro deal with problems, not to cause trouble.
"Shoji, you'd better contact the Cultural Promotion Fund first and ask them to assist in the shooting..."
After pondering for a moment, Nakamura Masahiro said to Ojo Shoji in a reminding tone: "Don't be afraid to make demands and conditions. If you can use their relationships and resources, don't waste them."
In fact, with Nakamura Masahiro's current fame and influence, it is relatively easy to gain support in the remote Hokuriku region.
But since there is a local cultural revitalization fund coming forward, and they are partners in the first place, Nakamura Masahiro naturally wants to worry less.
Some things may be solved by Masahiro Nakamura, but if the local cultural promotion fund is responsible for it, it will definitely be more convenient and simpler.
Even though Masahiro Nakamura is also an indigenous resident of the Hokuriku region, he cannot surpass the Cultural Promotion Fund regardless of his connections and influence.
"I see."
After a moment of hesitation, Oshiro Shoji nodded solemnly, indicating that he understood what Nakamura Masahiro meant.
Since there is help from the Cultural Revitalization Fund that can be used, of course it cannot be wasted. Anyway, there is no need to increase the cost. Isn’t it good to have free sex?
After finalizing the cooperation with the Cultural Promotion Fund, Masahiro Nakamura shifted the topic of discussion to the promotion and distribution progress of the movie "Model Student".
Although Nakamura Masahiro was designated as the focus of the movie's promotion, since the main promotion and distribution companies were Toho and Warner, and TBS TV station was involved in the cooperation, the role of the agency was only to provide assistance.
Correspondingly, the workload and investment of the office will be relatively small, which is actually quite appropriate considering the size of Masahiro Nakamura's office.
The publicity and distribution work of the movie is not as simple as imagined. It is not just a matter of editing some highlights and posting a few promotional posters.
In addition to normal promotional advertisements and graphic posters, there are also various promotional activities and offline marketing, as well as plans to attract well-known film critics.
All in all, the publicity and distribution work of a movie is very complicated and involves many aspects, all of which require sufficient communication and coordination, which is not something that a small firm can easily handle.
After chatting endlessly about the film's promotion work, Nakamura Masahiro was just about to send Oshiro Shoji away, but the other party spoke first.
"Nakamura-san, Suzuki-san, who went to the other side to invest, has returned..."
Oshiro Shoji casually took out his notepad, flipped through it briefly, and reported to Nakamura Masahiro in detail.
"According to your request, he has contacted and communicated with companies on the other side such as Meituan and MiHoYo."
"As for Meituan, the other party rejected our investment. They are not short of money now. They raised enough funds last year."
"MiHoYo is quite happy. They were originally just a studio, but they just transformed into a company. We successfully obtained 15% of the equity."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "However, we have also made a commitment that when their games enter the Japanese market, we will fully assist and help open up all links."
"In addition, there is ByteDance, which is also a newly established company. We also successfully obtained 17% of the equity."
"Since there is not much remaining capital, other companies have only maintained limited contacts and have not entered the substantive investment stage..."
Nakamura Masahiro squinted his eyes and thought carefully. Although he listed many companies on the other side, he was not an expert memory monster after all, so it was naturally impossible to remember all the details.
Therefore, Masahiro Nakamura is actually not very sure whether he can successfully invest in the target company on the other side.
After all, although he has some connections and influence in Japan, he is obviously not able to influence the other side.
Now, after listening to Oshiro Shoji's report, he has successfully acquired the equity interests of MiHoYo and ByteDance, which makes Nakamura Masahiro excited.
Those are the future Internet giants and gaming giants. They have successfully hitched a ride on them. Then why not just take off from the same spot?
"To be honest, Nakamura-san, based on the feedback from Suzuki-san, it seems that the economic development on the other side is quite rapid, and there are many investment opportunities."
"I think... in the future, we can focus on companies on the other side, divert the profits of the firm, and then invest there."
Oshiro Shoji slowly closed the notepad and put it into his pocket while explaining his point of view to Nakamura Masahiro.
“Isn’t it true that Masayoshi Son of SoftBank has always been optimistic about the economic development of the other side of the country? It is said that his investment fund has always been very concerned about the start-up companies of the other side.”
"When Suzuki-san went to the other side to invest this time, he borrowed the reputation of SoftBank, which is why it went so smoothly..."
Nakamura Masahiro frowned subconsciously. He looked at the casual Ojo Shoji and asked with a slightly hesitant tone: "Shoji, Suzuki-san borrowed SoftBank's reputation?"
Suzuki-san is the person in charge of the investment plan sent by the firm to the other side. In Nakamura Masahiro's impression, this employee of the firm has always been very low-key, but he did not expect that he still has this ability.
"Yes, one of Suzuki-san's seniors is the head of SoftBank's branch on the other side. This investment plan went so smoothly thanks to his senior's matchmaking."
Oshiro Shoji nodded firmly, and then explained the reason to Nakamura Masahiro in detail.
"As long as you state the name of SoftBank, the companies on the other side will receive you very solemnly... If you state the name of our firm, they may not even pay attention."
Pursing his lips and nodding slightly, Nakamura Masahiro agreed very much with Ojo Shoji's words. Although they were a bit unpleasant, they were extremely realistic.
Masahiro Nakamura's office may be somewhat famous in the Japanese entertainment industry, but outside the scope of the entertainment industry, probably not many people know about it.
Not to mention that on the other side of the sea, there is a cross-border technology circle and a business circle. It is normal for people to ignore it at all.
"Well, Shoji, if you give Suzuki-san a bonus, you might as well give it a little more..."
His fingers were tapping rhythmically on the table. After thinking for a moment, Nakamura Masahiro decisively gave orders to Oshiro Shoji.
"Tell him privately and ask him to thank his senior. He may also need the help of the other party to help with the subsequent investment plan."
"Nakamura-san, this is a bit exaggerated..."
Oshiro Shoji looked at Nakamura Masahiro's serious face and felt that his attitude was a bit too serious: Even if the company on the other side has investment prospects, how much development can it have?
"Suzuki-san can successfully implement the investment plan and pay a part of the bonus."
"Shoji, listen to me..."
Reaching out to interrupt Oshiro Shoji's words, Nakamura Masahiro's firm tone left no room for doubt. He seriously ordered: "You don't have to worry so much, just be responsible for the execution."
