Tokyo Bubble Life - Chapter 345
Chapter 345 Chapter 345, Being fell in love with Yutaka Ozaki?
When it was almost time to get off work, Naoki Nagayama just had some free time,
Stretched his waist, rubbed his sore shoulder blades, and showed a relaxed smile on his face. Finally, the day’s work was coming to an end!
He recalled the wish he made when he first arrived in the Showa era, and couldn’t help whispering:
“Sure enough, it is impossible to work part-time. I, Naoki Nagayama, will not be a part-time worker!”
At this moment, the door of the office knocked again, and the smile on Naoki Naoyama’s face suddenly turned into a mournful one.
Riko Hayano pushed the door and walked in: “Naoki-san?”
It’s already time to leave work, don’t you know that if you give work before the end of work, the workers will take it over without complaint
“Ah, does Riko-chan still have the files?”
Riko Ono shook her head, “It was the company of Being Records who called, and wanted to make an appointment with Shuyou Yinghua to meet the president of the company.”
Being records?
Naoki Yongshan thought about it for a while, he didn’t seem to have any connection with them? Although they are both companies that have not been started for a few years, they are barely on the same front under the pressure of established production companies.
“Did you say why?”
“Seems like a band-building thing.”
It’s weird, it seems that I don’t have any bands to build? Naoki Yongshan couldn’t figure out what the other party meant, but it didn’t seem like a bad thing to see him.
“I see, Riko-chan and them are sure to meet tomorrow morning, ah no, let’s meet tomorrow afternoon.” There will still be a lot of chores tomorrow morning.
“Hi!”
Riko Hayano walked out, and Naoki Naoyama remembered that this girl’s main job was actually planning idol creation, and she turned into an office secretary? It is a bit overkill.
I am temporarily acting as the day-to-day manager, so should I assign a full-time secretary to the really busy Fangcun Otomo?
Will Otomo-san lose control?
Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Naoki Naoyama looked at the time to get off work and got off work on time.
In Japanese workplace culture, if he doesn’t leave, none of the other employees in the studio office will leave. Even if he leaves, there are still many people who will choose to work overtime.
It’s not that Naoki Naoyama doesn’t want to change this kind of atmosphere, but this habit rooted in the culture cannot be easily reversed by one person.
But since you can’t change the world, at least you won’t let the world change you. Naoki Naoyama himself will never work overtime!
There is a dog at home to feed!
Two branches of flowers bloomed, this morning,
Nakano District, under the Akina Apartment Building.
“Akina-san? What’s wrong with you?”
Akina Akina, who came to pick up Akina in the morning to go to Hokkaido, was surprised, because Nakamori Akina, who was supposed to be full of energy, actually had dark circles under her eyes and was in a bad mood.
“It’s nothing. Akinoko-san, let’s go!” Nakamori Akina said with a small face,
“Ah hi~”
Akina Yukibo adhered to the manager’s principle of non-interference in the idol’s private life, so he didn’t ask too many questions, but he was very curious in his heart, how could Nakamori Akina, who has always been strong, become like this, and what happened?
Why is it a bit like when female idols fell out of love?
Actually, Akina didn’t watch all three episodes last night, because when watching the seventh episode, there was a famous scene—Lei Hanazawa gently kissing Shancai in the stairwell.
Yes, it was the embarrassing scene Naoki Naoyama filmed!
Akina saw it!
Then I didn’t sleep well all night.
As the sun was setting, Naoki Nagayama, who knew nothing, was walking relaxedly on the avenue back to Sanzakin,
My eyes are full of beautiful scenery along the way, looking at the cherry blossoms blooming on the roadside, I am still thinking about when to invite Akina out to enjoy the cherry blossoms.
At night, Yamazakura-in was very lively after a long absence, because a lively younger sister came, and dinner was already prepared,
After Naoki Yongshan finished the hot meal, Tsuruko began to show his true colors:
“Ni Jiang, when will you take me to buy a bag?”
Well, yesterday’s promise was not to delay for a moment.
“Let’s go on the weekend~” Naoki Yongshan came back from the garage and handed her the three video tapes in his hand, “I’m going to substitute for my colleagues in these two days.”
Hezi happily took the video tape, and went to catch up with the drama in a hurry, and Naoki Yongshan could only sit aside and watch together,
Honestly speaking, watching the TV series I acted in is actually quite interesting, because I can recall interesting scenes during filming.
“Jingle Bell”
The phone next to the sofa rang, waking up the two who were watching the drama. Naoki Naoyama reached out to pick it up,
“Moses, this is Yamazakura-in.”
“Naoki, it’s me!” Yuan Nakai’s exhausted voice came from the microphone,
Naoki Naoyama was a little worried: “Yuta, what’s the matter, it sounds like your voice is not right?”
“Ah, it’s okay, it’s just that I haven’t slept well during this time.”
Since Naoki Nagayama handed over 2 billion to him to trade, along with his own money, Genta Nakai couldn’t sleep every night, wishing he could stare at the stock market all the time,
“Boom? Don’t try too hard, Yuantai, you are only in your 20s, and you still have a great time ahead.” Naoki Naoyama thought he was too tired from work.
“Hehe, stop joking, Naoki.” Genta Nakai’s tone seemed much more formal, “I’m going to the United States for a while, and I’ll stay for about half a year. Do you want to go together?”
“To the United States?”
“Yes, I have asked the company for an opportunity to be sent abroad.” Yuanta Nakai said, “There are still procedures to deal with such a large amount of funds, and it is more convenient to operate over there. How about it? Do you want to go together?” ?”
Naoki Naoyama thought about it for a while: “Yuta, I won’t go abroad until May, so let’s go there then.”
Nakai Yuanta on the phone was stunned: “Naoki, that’s 2 billion yen! Don’t you care at all?”
Ah. Naoki Naoyama just remembered that he still has a sum of money in US stocks.
“Haha, I almost forgot.” Naoki Naoyama smiled, “But if you have Genta, I’m still very relieved, it’s okay, I’m going to participate in an event in May, and I will go to the United States to see you.”
Almost forgot.
These four words hit Yuanta Nakai all of a sudden, so the large sum of money that he was thinking about was actually insignificant to Naoki Naoyama?
For a moment, Genta Nakai seemed to see his money-entangled soul laughing at himself
Forget it, I don’t want to talk anymore, what about love!
Naoki Yongshan found that the opposite party hadn’t spoken for a long time, and reminded: “Yuan Tai? Yuan Taisang?”
“Hi, I’m here.” The voice in the microphone felt a little lifeless.
“Ah, then it’s settled, I will visit you again in May, and when you arrive in the United States, remember to tell me your address!”
“Hi~”
When Naoki Yongshan hung up the phone, Hezi had already come over: “Ni Jiang, do you want to travel abroad?”
“Yeah, I’m going to participate in an awards ceremony by the way, what’s wrong?”
“That’s great, I haven’t been abroad yet~” Hezi’s tone was full of envy.
“You want me to take you?” Naoki Yongshan’s words made Hezi’s eyes shine, but Naoki Yongshan pushed his head away, “Think beautifully, study hard, improve every day, and then earn money to go out and play! ”
“Tch~” Hezi turned his head and ignored his hateful brother.
At this time, Naoki Naoyama looked at the graffiti paintings hanging on the wall of the stairs, and thought of his friend Basquiat and his girlfriend Madonna, whom he had known for only one day in New York.
By the way, have these two broken up now?
Has Madonna started to become famous?
When Naoki Nagayama stepped into the studio office again, there was no trace of Shuichi Ido,
This guy decided not to watch Naoki Naoki get embarrassed today.
The preparatory work for “Maoyan Three Sisters” has entered the final stage, the production committee has been established, and some sponsors have also been attracted.
Even Masataka Komori was called out by him to prepare, but there was nothing he could do. In addition to the actor script and shooting equipment, he had to contact the art gallery to be filmed, and some fakes of precious collections and artworks were also needed.
The initial investment this time is similar to that of “Boys Over Flowers”, and there are many things that require the film crew to be careful.
Naoki Yongshan was sitting carelessly in the office at this time, waiting for his subordinates to hand over the documents and materials, but it was a bit strange that there was no one after waiting for a long time.
He came out and asked Hayano Riko who was sitting in the large bay:
“Riko-chan, why are there no documents today?”
“Uh…” Riko Ono looked at her somewhat silly president, and didn’t know what to say for a while, “Naoki-san, yesterday was the beginning of the month, so there were so many documents that needed to be signed and agreed. Normally, there is no Too many files.”
“Huh? What does Otomo Sang usually do?”
“Otomo-san usually either promotes the announcements and activities of Ito Junko, Saito Yuki, and the three wild cat sisters, or contacts customers, maintains relationships, and finds more announcements for the company’s artists.”
Thinking about it this way, it seems that Otomo-san doesn’t usually have too much work? An idea popped up in Naoki Naoyama’s mind: “Should I give Otomo Sang a little burden?”
Sure enough, before I knew it, I was already a mature capitalist!
Naoki Naoyama shook his head and understood that besides these tasks, Otomo Fangcun also needs to worry about the production of new records of his artists, holding concerts, promotion of new labels, etc., let alone The administration of the company itself.
It’s just that I took over in a blank period.
“I see, I understand~” Naoki Naoyama smiled at Riko Ono, making the little girl dare not look at him, “Keep busy, Riko-chan~”
Sure enough, after a period of time, employees would still come into the office from time to time, either to sign or ask for opinions on a certain matter.
A bit busy, but acceptable.
In the afternoon, when the scheduled meeting time was approaching, the people from Being Records arrived on time,
To Naoki Naoyama’s surprise, the founder of Being Records, Taiyuki Nagato, came in person and brought a young man with him.
“It’s our first meeting. I’m Daiyuki Nagato from Being Records. Please give me your advice.” Daiyuki Nagato, who looks very mature, introduced himself enthusiastically, “This is our music producer Tetsuro Oda.”
“Nice meeting, Mr. Yongshan, I am Oda Tetsuro, please give me your advice!”
Tetsuro Oda bowed very humbly to say hello, because the guy opposite him who was younger than himself actually had several top ten songs on the Oricon chart, and he already had a huge reputation in the industry.
“Hi, this is the first time we meet, I am Naoki Nagayama, please give me your advice!”
Facing the two polite guys, Naoki Naoyama had to reply according to the cumbersome etiquette, but it doesn’t matter, his waist has already adapted to the custom of bowing at every turn.
Daxing Nagato aside, this young man named Tetsuro Oda seems to be very interesting. Even Naoki Naoyama, who doesn’t pay much attention to Japanese male singers, has heard the song “World が 结るまでは” (until the world end).
But Naoki Naoyama is no longer as excited about the celebrities of later generations as he was when he first arrived in Showa, after all, he has seen too much.
After taking the two of them to the conference room, they exchanged a few words and went straight to the topic:
“President Nagato, I heard from the person I contacted earlier that I want to cooperate. I don’t know what it is specifically?”
“Haha, President Yongshan is really direct”
Taiyuki Nagato was a little surprised. When discussing cooperation with other companies before, these guys were all hiding like old foxes. They just waited for their side to bring it up first to gain the so-called advantage.
“Actually, I took the liberty to come here today because of Rebellion, the new label that your company cooperates with Sony Records, and its singer, Yutaka Ozaki.”
? Yutaka Ozaki? What happened to that kid?
Naoki Naoyama reviewed it. Recently, Yutaka Ozaki’s record has just been released, but since “Boys Over Flowers” has not yet become popular, the sales volume of the record as the theme song is not very good, but this guy is very popular in the livehouse. It seems to attract A large number of fans.
“Ozaki-kun? I don’t understand President Nagato.”
Taiyuki Nagato quickly explained: “President Yongshan, we at Being are cooperating with CBS Sony to provide lyrics, packaging and so on.”
This is also the routine operation of large companies, outsourcing some work.
“During the cooperation process, we wanted to find a singer with great potential and create songs for him.”
Naoki Naoyama understood: “So you guys have taken a fancy to Ozaki-kun?”
“.Hi!”
There is nothing to hide, I just fell in love with him.
During this period, Being Records was in an embarrassing period. Although it had a certain strength, the company had no really popular works, and its style was not very determined. It did not have its own label in the industry.
So I got to know Yutaka Ozaki before, and Nagato Taiyuki also went to observe Yutaka Ozaki’s performance in person, and felt that he has the potential to become famous.
happens to be an artist belonging to Sony Records, so I want to ask if there is a chance
“President Nagato, you also know that we also value Ozaki-kun very much, so we specially established a new label for him.” Naoki Naoyama was a little funny, “Are you trying to steal it?”
“No!” Nagato Taiko explained, “We don’t have big ambitions! We came here, just want to cooperate with your company.”
“? How to cooperate?”
“Being is willing to make a tailor-made record for Yutaka Ozaki!” Nagato Taiyuki pointed to Tetsuro Oda next to him, “Oda-kun has very rich experience in composition and creation, and has a deep understanding of rock music, so he can create a rock album for Yutaka Ozaki .”
Tetsuro Oda seems to be a bit old-fashioned and serious, and he doesn’t know how to be euphemistic when he speaks:
“Forgive me for my offense. Although President Yongshan is also a very famous composer, the style of composing music seems to be biased towards female singers. For male singers”
Taiyuki Nagato quickly took over the conversation: “I must have very high opinions on the field of male singers!”
“However, President Yongshan, we at Being Records have good experience in the field of male singers, and we can provide Yutaka Ozaki with more systematic packaging and promotion.”
Taiko Nagato kept telling about the services his company could provide for Yutaka Ozaki, like a door-to-door salesperson, but Naoki Naoyama didn’t say no, because he really didn’t listen to Japanese rock songs much. Of course it’s the girl’s song that comes to the loop
Being Records wants to use Yutaka Ozaki as a further springboard, and Naoki Nagayama just lacks the next step for Yutaka Ozaki. The benefits of free delivery, why not?
“President Nagato, I understand.” Naoki Naoyama interrupted him, “It just so happens that we are planning Ozaki-kun’s next album, and we may try to start with the production of this album.”
Although there is a music producer Tetsuya Komuro, he is still a newcomer with little experience. If he introduces a Being record, Yutaka Ozaki’s debut will be smoother at the beginning.
Obtained the promise, Nagato Taiyuki also showed a smile on his face: “Hi, then we will start from here!”
The two presidents reached a consensus, and the specific things after that will naturally be handled by subordinates.
In the following time, Naoki Naoyama and Taiyuki Nagato chatted about recent gossip in the entertainment world, and both of them were very happy.
It was Oda Tetsuro who looked at Naoki Nagayama and seemed to want to say something, but was always stopped by Nagato Taiyuki.
After making an appointment to drink tea next time, the two from Being Records left.
Naoki Nagayama is back to having fun again.
