Tokyo bubble life

Even in summer, the core area of ​​Tokyo is still bustling with people on weekends.

Those young people with unlimited energy are not afraid of hot weather. As long as there is a novel and interesting place, everyone must not miss it.

Newly opened shops in Ginza Commercial Street, exciting products in department stores, trendy brand clothing, European style street and Shitamachi Japanese style street are just a few hundred meters apart, as well as countless restaurants, KTV, cinemas, entertainment cities and other leisure activities A place for entertainment.

As long as you think about it, you can't finish shopping for several days~

And just when ordinary people thought that this was the place with the most prosperous neon lights, a movie showed people the life of the real rich. They also realized that the Tokyo in the eyes of the rich and the Tokyo in the eyes of ordinary people are not the same place at all. !

"Tiger of Ginza."

Nakagawa Daharu, who had just watched this movie with her girlfriend, was still feeling emotional when she walked out of the cinema.

"As expected, those who can gain a foothold in Ginza are all ambitious people, ferocious beasts in the capital world! Sure enough, Ginza is the world of capital! If only I could be so rich one day."

In my mind, I am still thinking about the beautiful cars, beautiful women, feasting, and wanton carnivals that I will have after I get rich.

Suddenly, there was a heartbreaking pain in his arm, and he saw his girlfriend, Koizumi Jiyi, twisting his arm angrily!

"It hurts. Ji Yi-chan, why are you pinching me?!"

"You men all become bad when you have money!" Koizumi Jiyi said bitterly, "When you just watched the movie, were you envious?!"

"Hey, this is me."

Nakagawa Daqing hesitated to explain,

"This movie actually wants to warn the audience that wealth is just a passing cloud! You see, in the end, the protagonist has almost nothing! This means that everything is a fantasy!"

"whispering sound!"

Koizumi Jiyi didn't believe it at all, and his words were categorical.

"When you looked at the heroine just now, your eyes were straight!"

"I don't have it, I don't, you're talking nonsense!" Nakagawa Oharu immediately retorted Sanlian, "Saejima Nao is just a vase in the movie!"

"Look, he said yes, he even wrote down his name!"

Koizumi Jiyi became even more angry and threw her boyfriend with her backpack.

"Scumbag! Break up!"

"Eh? Ehhhh?!"

Nakagawa Daqing chased after him in panic. He was obviously watching a movie happily, but why did he not even have a girlfriend after the movie? !

In fact, this young couple is just an example. Most viewers actually had a lot of emotions after watching it.

"Tiger of Ginza" is a male-oriented movie, there is no doubt about it!

When a man goes from abjection to success, from poverty to wealth, his material conditions, his partner, and his mental experience have all undergone tremendous changes.

And the core of all these changes is wealth!

Now the Neon economy is booming. After the Plaza Accord, the wealth bubble of Neon people continues to grow. The entire society is shrouded in an unreal psychedelic atmosphere, and consumerism is prevalent.

What should I do if I have money?

Eat better, buy better, play better?

The movie "Tiger of Ginza" fits perfectly with the current social situation, and it also opens up a new world for viewers who have suddenly become rich.

It turns out that you can season your food with gold foil. It turns out that you can just scan the cabinets when buying goods. Turns out you can still play like this? !

The rich can pay tens of millions for a night in a club, and can spend millions on a meal. Contraband is just a stimulus to them, and beauties that are hard to find are just a foil to enhance the atmosphere!

In a society where classes are solidified, "Tiger of Ginza" has set off a corner of the upper-class heaven, making ordinary people feel lonely~

Thanks to word of mouth, more and more people are going to the cinema to watch this amazing movie.

Then when they walked out, they all looked like they had opened their eyes because it was previously reported that the movie was adapted from Naoki Nagayama’s story, and many viewers talked about Naoki Nagayama.

"So, do guys like Naoki Nagayama live this kind of life?"

"Wait a minute, Naoki Nagayama is not bankrupt!"

"Maybe he has been targeted by the Financial Bureau."

"."

Various discussions were going on, and there were also various envious and jealous people in the Neon people who secretly called the Ministry of Finance’s reporting office.

"Go to Shuyou Capital and check it out. Maybe there is really tax evasion!"

"It's the investment company in "Tiger of Ginza"

"Go check it out! Naoki Nagayama is so rich, and his family history must be dirty. It doesn't look like the movie was written randomly!"

"."

Naturally, the entertainment industry is also paying close attention to Shuyou's new movie.

Whether it's Shochiku who has a good relationship with Shuyou, or Toei, who has always been somewhat conflicted, everyone who works in the film industry is more or less concerned about the box office performance of "Tiger of Ginza".

"Data from various theaters in Tokyo show that "Tiger of Ginza" has just been released for one day, and the occupancy rate has reached 90%."

Toei's Toru Nakano reported the results of "Tiger of Ginza" to the head of the department, Takafumi Ogasawara.

"This attendance rate is already very good."

"Is there no moisture?" Ogasawara Takafumi asked.

You must know that in order to make the data look good, some film production companies will book their own theaters and get some "ghost audiences" to watch the movie.

"As far as I know, no~"

Tohru Nakano explained,

"After all, it is a movie that Juyou strongly recommends this year, and the publicity in the past period of time was also very good. Although 90% attendance is a bit exaggerated, it is understandable!"

"90% attendance"

Ogasawara Takafumi smiled,

"Nakano, how many days do you think it can last? Three days? A week?"

"According to the feedback from the first batch of audiences, this movie is really good. Under the influence of word of mouth, it may last for a week?"

Nakano Toru gave a conservative estimate.

In fact, the current film industry in Japan is booming, and new theaters are opened almost every week. The demand for watching movies is far greater than the supply.

A commercial blockbuster like "Tiger of Ginza" may be able to maintain a longer attendance rate.

"Is that so?" Ogasawara Takafumi sighed, "Juyou Eiga. Naoki Nagayama, Shuichi Ido, Masataka Komori, and the director of this movie, Kyon Kimura. There are so many talents!"

"Director, in terms of talent, our Toei is not inferior to Juyou!" Nakano Toru said carefully.

".Where are the talents?" Ogasawara Takafumi said disdainfully, "You?"

"."

If I hadn't seen you as the director, I would have hit you, believe it or not? !

Ogasawara Takafumi continued to sigh:

"There will be a Tokyo Film Festival in the second half of the year and this movie is the opening movie. This year's movie box office list, it seems that Shuyou Film has taken the majority again."

"Director, Shuyou only has two movies this year."

"Maybe there will be another one in the fourth quarter~ Naoki Naoki, you never know!"

"."

Indeed, it is a consensus in the industry that Naoki Naoki can make a hit movie in just one month.

People like Masaki Kobayashi and Masahiro Shinoda who are familiar with Naoki Naoki have already watched the movie at the preview, and the rest, including the directors, have gone to the cinema to watch it in person.

The great director Kinji Fukasaku, because of an accident, has completely stopped going to the cinema to watch movies with other audiences, especially Shuyou's movies!

However, as a director, he had to admire Naoki Nagayama's talent as a director, and wanted to watch the new movie of his friend, so he directly booked a screening room through Toei's relationship to watch it.

"Tiger of Ginza"~"

This time it was not a horror movie, so Kinji Fukasaku was not too worried. He sat in the middle of the seat and enjoyed the feeling of booking the cinema by himself.

From the first scene of the movie, Kinji Fukasaku's attention was focused

Unlike ordinary audiences, he watched the shooting techniques, the rhythm of the story, and the light and shadow effects, etc.

"The use of the lens this time is very ordinary," Kinji Fukasaku complained, "Sure enough, Naoki Nagayama didn't intervene"

"But the male lead's acting is okay, and the vase is also very beautiful."

As a director who is entangled with the actress who directs the movie, he has always required the heroine of the movie to be beautiful, and this time Saejima Nao is undoubtedly perfect.

"Consider giving her some opportunities in the future."

In this way, while watching the movie and complaining, Kinji Fukasaku finally gave a summary:

A one-six-nine-one-book-one-bar version that is perfect!

"An ordinary commercial film. No profound meaning."

Even though the extravagant scenes in it surprised him a little, that's all.

After watching "Tiger of Ginza" this time, there was only a sense of freshness in the eyes.

At the end, there was only one feeling. Empty~

As the second-generation director of Japan, he upholds a concept that all movies are art, and they all reflect a certain thought and reality.

"It seems that it is indeed a movie used to make money."

It is no surprise to Kinji Fukasaku that this movie can achieve a high box office, because he gave the audience a lot of sensory stimulation, including the extravagant and luxurious scenes in it, which are what ordinary audiences need.

But after ten or two years, this movie will disappear.

And his movies such as "War Without Kindness" and "Putian March", as well as Naoki Nagayama's previous films such as "Love Letter" and "Kikujiro's Summer", will be discussed repeatedly.

After leaving the cinema, the summer heat wave hit, making this old man who had cancer feel a little uncomfortable.

However, seeing the audiences coming in and out of the cinema, the pedestrians on the street outside the door hurriedly walking towards their destination, and looking at the fancy signs of the shops and shopping malls in the distance, as well as the crowded cars on the road.

A feeling of emotion suddenly came to my mind.

"Ginza Tiger. It seems to be very suitable for the current neon society!"

Under the influence of consumerism, everyone pursues the excitement brought by money. After the extravagance, there is only a void left.

"Kishima-kun"

After a road show, Masataka Komori said excitedly,

"Ginza Tiger may reach the level of Naoki-san at the box office!"

After seeing the attendance rate of cinemas in several cities, Masataka Komori felt that the box office of this movie might reach tens of billions, and it is likely to move towards 5 billion.

In the Shuyou Group, or even the entire entertainment industry, this is also a level that only a few directors can achieve!

"I'm still far from Naoki-san!"

Kyō Kijima was not confused by the praises that surrounded him. Perhaps these praises could not find him.

"Naoki-san's high box office was created in the past two years, while this "Tiger of Ginza" was created this year."

"Um, what's the difference?"

"Masataka-kun, haven't you noticed?" Kijima Kyor said, "Since this year, the box office of almost all Neon's movies has been extremely high!"

"ha?"

"This shows that people are rich and have more private wealth, so they can have money to spend."

Kijima Xu actually looked like a beast at this time, and said in a calm manner,

"The box office of all movies this year, including "Tiger of Ginza" directed by me, is actually inflated."

"."

Komori Masataka looked at his friend in shock,

"Oh, Kijima-kun, if I haven't noticed for a while, you have already thought so deeply!"

"."

In fact, I have been paying attention to the effect of the movie these days and kept reading the comments in newspapers and media, which are mixed with the analysis of the tertiary industry by some economists.

Just as I was about to continue the discussion, the lead actor Leslie Cheung and the female lead Nao Saejima over there also finished their meeting with fans and came over.

"Director Kijima, Producer Komori, let's go to the next stop!"

"Would you like a little trimming?" Masataka Komori asked thoughtfully, "Leslie just flew over from Hong Kong to promote it."

"It doesn't matter, I'll just rest in the car." Leslie Cheung shook his head, "It's better to go to the next stop early."

He took time out to come to Neon to promote, and is recording the album "Love Fire" in Hong Kong!

As his fame grows, artists like him have no time to rest when they are busy. Now that the Neon market has opened up, maybe the next album will also sell well in Neon.

"Okay. Nao-chan, let's go~"

"Hi!"

As for Nao Saejima, she dare not raise any opinions. This "Tiger of Ginza" can be said to have forcibly pulled her from the path of an AV actress to the path of a mainstream movie star. This is an opportunity that she must seize even if she doesn't sleep. !

Nagayama Naoki was not affected at all at home. It was just in the afternoon when the baby woke up from his sleep and was flapping his little hands and feet.

Naoki Nagayama stretched out his hand to grab her little hand and interacted with Xiao Xiahua~

"Naoki-mulberry"

Akina was a little jealous when she saw this heartwarming scene. Was her daughter really her lover in her previous life? !

"Um?"

"It's almost a month since Hua Jiang was born. The full moon party is about to be prepared!"

"Full moon party?"

"Yes. Will it be held at Yamazakuin?"

"Okay~"

Nagayama Naoki nodded. After the reconstruction of Yamazakakuin, the place was big enough to hold a medium-sized party.

Akina came over and took a list:

"This is the list of people invited to the wedding banquet before. Do we need to adjust some people for this baby's full moon banquet?"

"certainly."

Nagayama Naoki looked at the list and planned it with Akina. Nagayama Natsuka's full moon banquet, in addition to blessing the baby, also had a social meaning. In addition to family members, all the people invited were close friends.

In the future, there will be 100-day banquets, first-year banquets, annual birthday banquets, etc. Rich families like to organize more of these for their children. In fact, it also means finding an excuse for their connections to gather together and get closer.

Just like before, Nagayama Naoki held a cherry blossom viewing party every year after the cherry blossoms in Yamazakura Garden bloomed~
