Tokyo bubble life

"Naoki-san, you're here~"

Xing Jiahua and Suzuki Yukina from Shuyou Building had strange smiles on their faces when they saw Naoki Nagayama in the morning, which made someone confused for a moment.

"What's wrong? Are you smiling so strangely?"

"Nothing!" Suzuki Yuka said.

"Nothing!" Xing Jiahua added next to her.

"."

Seeing that they didn't want to tell you, Naoki Nagayama didn't bother to ask and walked directly to the elevator.

Anyway, this kind of thing will definitely reach his ears after a while~

After arriving at Fangcun Otomo's office, I discovered that Fangcun Otomo was also acting strangely. He laughed when he saw him.

"What happened today?" Nagayama Naoki was really curious, "Did something good happen?"

"It's a good thing. That's right."

Yoshimura Otomo handed over a newspaper on the table, and the page he opened was the news from the previous press conference after the filming of "Tiger of Ginza" was completed.

Although there are also speculations that the story is based on Naoki Nagayama, Naoki Nagayama has already seen this at home:

"What's so funny about this?"

"Ah, it's not this one." Fangcun Otomo glanced at it and found another fancy-looking newspaper from the table, "It's this "Sports News"."

"?? This kind of subway newspaper?"

"Sports News" is a type of neon sports newspaper. It basically contains entertainment news, and special sections such as "Pink Lady" are usually sold in places like subway station convenience stores for people to kill time.

So we don’t book Yamazakura-in!

When I opened it, I saw news about yesterday's film reveal conference, but the title was "How to Bring a Star Home?" Please read Huaxin Naoki’s guide to picking up girls! ! ! (You must have money first~)》

"ha?!!!"

Naoki Nagayama opened it and looked at it. The first half was about the news about "Tiger of Ginza", and then he went off track and started to combine Naoki Nagayama's previous news and the materials released by "Tiger of Ginza". , and began to sort out what he did when he was in love.

For example, "private high-end restaurant", "private fireworks show", "customized movie", "cruise party", "foreign travel", "airship show of love", "precious jewelry".

In short, as long as you follow these few steps, even the most famous and popular stars in Neon can be included!

"."

Looking at the "Handbook for Picking Up Girls" that almost occupied the entire page, Naoki Nagayama finally understood why the two girls were laughing so strangely at the front desk.

"What a manual for picking up girls!" Naoki Nagayama dropped the newspaper, "It didn't get to the point at all!"

"Oh?" Fangcun Dayou drank tea leisurely and joked, "Then what's the point?"

"The important thing is that the protagonist must be me, Naoki Nagayama!"

Someone acted narcissistically,

"These operations are the icing on the cake. As long as it's me, even if I just give you a dogtail ring, I can still catch Akina!"

"Pfft~~~"

Fangcun Dayou squirted out a mouthful of water,

"Naoki-san, you are so"

"You are self-aware, right~"

Nagayama Naoki didn't give others a chance to complain, and sat down directly to change the topic.

"Okay, okay, this is just some tidbits, nothing to make a fuss about~ Otomo-san, after the negotiation with Nippon TV, how is the progress of "Neon Sound"?"

"Ah, we have started to design the studio now, and we will start decorating it in the next two days." Fangcun Otomo said, "NTV has provided a large studio that can accommodate 300 people on site."

Naoki Nagayama nodded. Even though he was not directly responsible, he still had to pay attention to the progress.

"As for the producer of the show." Otomo Yoshimura paused, "Because our tree friends lack experience in variety shows. In fact, only Naoki-san has experience in filming variety shows."

"But Munao-kun and Nishimoto-kun have less experience, so this time they contacted a senior program producer, Fujiwara Kazuhisa, to help with the production."

"Ah, so that's it~"

Nagayama Naoki nodded. This time NTV gave tree friends a lot of autonomy. In addition to the producer, the program's mentors, referees, hosts, etc. can all choose independently.

"In addition, the audition promotion plan for the show has been written by Eiichiro Watanabe. I have read it and made some suggestions for revision. This is the second version." Otomo Yoshimura handed over the plan, "Naoki-san, you Take a look at it, and if there are no problems, start promoting it.”

With that said, Yoshimura Otomo summoned Eiichiro Watanabe on the phone and asked him to introduce the publicity plan.

Eiichiro Watanabe came over and began to introduce publicity measures.

Since publicity channels are almost monopolized, there are only a few ways to publicize Neon in this era.

"This time it's not a movie, so we mainly distribute flyers, promote on TV, and advertise in magazines and newspapers (with advertising pages), etc."

Fangcun Dayou interjected:

"At that time, we will conduct the preliminary selection. Then we will record and shoot."

"Well, let's lower the standard for the primary selection." Naoki Nagayama nodded and had no objection to this plan. "It mainly depends on the tone, as long as the song can be sung completely."

"Hi~" Yoshimura Otomo said he remembered, "One more thing is that the rotating chair you described, Naoki-san, needs to be customized by a factory."

"Huh?" Naoki Nagayama was surprised, "It should be simple, right?"

A push button switch, the chair rotates 180 degrees when pressed.

"It also needs to be customized. After all, safety must also be considered in terms of styling."

".Okay~"

The three of them discussed possible problems that might arise in "The Sound of Neon" one after another in the office until they had completely gone through the promotional recording of the show.

When it was finally time to leave, Yoshimura Otomo asked:

"Do you want to meet Naoki-san, producer Kazuhisa Fujiwara?"

"Haha, no need." Naoki Nagayama patted Yoshimura Otomo on the shoulder, "Otomo-san picked it~ It must be fine!"

"."

Yoshimura Otomo felt moved in his heart ~ Naoki-san's trust in me has indeed never changed!

After communicating with Yoshimura Otomo about the progress of "The Sound of Neon", Naoki Nagayama came to the editing room.

When I opened the door, I saw four unshaven guys working in the editing room, sometimes making strange noises.

Looks like I'm very happy working overtime~

"Masataka-kun, Kijima-kun, Munao-kun, and Nishimoto-kun."

Nagayama Naoki called out the names of several directors at one time. These people are Shuyu’s future successors in the film industry!

It is not that there are no young employees in other movies. For example, when Komori Masataka was filming "Umi Street Diary", he trained a group of students. However, he only found the seeds of two directors who would gradually differentiate into movies. Other types of work go up.

At least it won’t be their turn to edit~

"Naoki-san!" X4

Komori Masataka stood up and welcomed Nagayama Naoki,

"Naoki-san, why are you here today?"

"I heard that you have been in the editing room for three days, so I came to visit."

Naoki Nagayama walked to the editing workbench. Although it was the latest version of the film editing workbench, the work was still very cumbersome and required skilled workers to operate it properly.

"When will we enter the digital age~"

"???" Kijima Xu looked over in confusion, "What number?"

"It means that in the future, when editing movies, you can edit high-definition digital images directly on the computer without using these films."

"How is that possible?!" Several other people shook their heads, "How can we call it making a movie if we don't use film!"

"The video tape is too blurry and has no film texture."

Nagayama Naoki took a plate of edited material and put it on the projector, still saying:

"Technology is developing so fast. A few years ago, we were still using old-fashioned editors. In the future, high-definition digital images will not necessarily be worse than film images."

Seeing that several people still didn't believe it, Naoki Nagayama didn't necessarily ask them to believe it. After all, even thirty years later, there are still major international directors who like to shoot with film.

A clip from "Tiger of Ginza" was played on the screen in the editing room, which happened to be the scene where the male protagonist entered the stock company, that is, Shuyou Capital.

Naoki Nagayama saw the pride and excitement on Leslie Cheung's face, full of the joy of getting rich, as if he had reached the commanding heights of life, and then delivered that exciting speech

"Poverty is never noble!" "I choose to be rich!" "."

The flamboyant and contagious picture makes everyone who watches it feel excited.

Nagayama Naoki was a little curious:

"Why cut this section first?"

Kijima Xu replied:

"The Propaganda Department's plan requires some trailers. I think this scene is very exciting."

"Ah, as a trailer~" Nagayama Naoki nodded, "Good choice~"

Kijima Kyor had a smile on his face. Naoki Nagayama really didn't participate in the filming of "Tiger of Ginza" this time. Now even the follow-up announcements are handled by themselves. It seems that Naoki-san really thinks that we have You have gained the ability to be independent!

After watching the work of the four of them for a while, Naoki Nagayama patted several of them on the shoulders:

"Everyone is working hard. I can see it all. However, you still need to take care of your health! Don't work overtime too late!"

"Hi! We'll pay attention!" X4

From their eyes, Naoki Nagayama seemed to see the hint of "loyalty up+up+up"

A little appearance and a few words of friendly concern are the boss's little tricks to win people's hearts!

If Naoki Nagayama's methods on how to gain loyalty were compiled into a book, this would be much more advanced than the "Handbook for Picking Up Girls". If you learn it, it will really help you get rich!

After leaving the company gate, Nagayama Naoki didn't even drive the car, but walked directly on the streets of Ikebukuro in the sun~

While watching more and more young people in Ikebukuro, I walked towards the milk tea shop I opened before.

Half an hour later, Naoki Nagayama looked up at the sign of the crowned snowman holding an ice cream cane, and finally stopped:

"Anyway, no one has sued me for copyright infringement now. Haha~"

Mixue milk tea has been open for two or three days. Nagayama Naoki promised to teach Tsuruko and Ishii Junsui how to make milk tea, so he came here every morning for the past two days.

Stepping into Mixue Milk Tea, Naoki Nagayama saw that there were already customers in the store, and two girls wearing rose red work bibs were explaining:

"Currently, the store only sells hand-made lemon tea and pearl milk tea. We will not make other products for the time being."

As he was talking, Tsuruko saw Naoki Nagayama walking over and immediately changed his words:

"Please wait a moment, the chief milk tea chef has arrived. The matcha frappuccino is ready!"

Naoki Nagayama shook his head, walked into the staff room in the back kitchen, put on a work apron, and then put on a mask commonly used in the kitchen. He was worried about being recognized and causing an accident.

"The customer ordered a matcha frappuccino, right? Please wait a moment."

After saying that, he walked towards the ice machine and started preparing it. After it was done, he let the customer pay.

"I say." Naoki Nagayama looked at Tsuruko and Ishii Junsui, the milk tea girls, "You two should practice making milk tea. Now that we have just opened, there are not many customers. After a while, when we are famous and have more customers, do you still have to wait for me to make milk tea?!"

"Ni-chan, it's easy to talk!" Tsuruko said carelessly, "We have only learned for a short time, how can we be so fast!"

"So we need to practice more!"

"But what should we do with the milk tea after so much practice?"

"Drink it all!"

"What if you can't drink it?"

"Just give it to your monkey!"

"Where is the monkey in my house?"

Tsuruko subconsciously refuted, but suddenly thought of her boyfriend Kaneda Dalu. Naoki Nagayama saw him when he sent her here two days ago, and since then he has a nickname "the monkey you hold hands with".

"."

Junshui Ishii, who was standing next to him, covered her mouth and laughed. It was so interesting to see the brother and sister chatting.

"When there are too many customers, you can also call your monkey to help!"

Naoki Nagayama continued, then turned around and began to prepare the materials.

"Okay, today we will learn how to make Yangzhi Ice Dew."

"Hi~~" X2

While teaching the two milk tea girls how to make new products, he occasionally received a few customers. Although it has only been open for a short time, Naoki Nagayama can feel that this small shop has become famous.

Because some customers said something like "So this is the one" and "I heard it tastes good" when chatting, which means that it has spread among young people.

"Ni-chan~" Tsuruko bit the straw in her mouth and drank the newly made Yangzhi Ice Dew, "Is this milk tea shop going to be open forever?"

"Well, what's wrong?"

"But Junshui and I are just summer interns~"

"So?"

Naoki Nagayama actually knew it, but he was just experiencing the popularity of milk tea now. Later, he would definitely find employees who would open milk tea shops full-time.

"There is a work-study organization department in our school." Tsuruko looked at her second brother, "Should we contact them? In this way, even if we don't do it after the summer vacation, there will always be people working."

Nagayama Naoki glanced at his sister. He could directly go to the labor agency to hire people, which is more stable than college students and has the constraints of labor contracts.

This method helps people who work and study. Should it be equivalent to doing good things?

Tsuruko has grown up!

However, since Tsuruko has spoken, then naturally he has to add more responsibilities:

"Okay. Since Tsuruko has proposed it, then the connection with the university's work-study organization, including the payment of wages and the management of students, will be handled by Tsuruko?"

"Huh? ! ! Me?"

"Yes." Naoki Nagayama said, "Just think of it as learning how to manage employees!"

In the future, my sister will be a tree friend, and she can't be a person with high expectations and low skills. If you can't even manage a few college students, then don't think about being a manager!

"What? Can't do it?" Naoki Nagayama stimulated Tsuruko.

"How is it possible! Such a simple thing!"

"Well, I'll leave it to you! Don't cry when the time comes!"

Although Tsuruko is kind-hearted, Naoki Nagayama expects her to see the evil side of human nature.

Especially when the milk tea shop makes a lot of money, and the wages of part-time workers are only so much, in the eyes of some students, maybe Tsuruko is an accomplice who joins the store owner to squeeze the labor force and exploit college students.

At that time, it is normal to be angry and cry~

Everyone is a good person in the ivory tower, but after walking out of it, how to face customers, how to evaluate performance, pay wages, and how to manage employees

This requires experience, and sometimes you have to put on a stern face!

"Hmph, don't underestimate me!"

At this time, Tsuruko had no idea what the future would be like, and her face was full of confidence.

"I grew up in a family of izakaya in Shizuoka, and I am known as the king of children!

Even a silent person like Ni-chan can learn how to manage a company, so what can't I do?!"

"Well, keep this enthusiasm, Gangba Dad!"
