Tokyo bubble life

When he returned to Yamasakura-in, Nagayama Naoki was still recalling the afternoon conversation and thinking about the possibility of inviting his grandfather over.

"It should be fine. It's not like you're in jail in your hometown. What's wrong with coming to Tokyo for fun?"

Naoki Nagayama touched the head of Taro Taro and asked, "Lang Taro, do you think the Metropolitan Police Department will embarrass an old man who is over 80 years old?! Send at most two police officers to maintain order?"

Yutaro squinted his eyes and did not hear his master's words clearly at all. He only hummed a few times to express his agreement.

After Naoki Nagayama thought for a while, he decided to ask his grandfather about himself after returning to his hometown.

By the way, I still have to attend my eldest brother’s housewarming! Thinking of this, Naoki Nagayama quickly called home.

After two rings, the phone was picked up.

"Moses, Moses, this is the Yongshan family." Sure enough, the voice of mother Nanako came through the microphone.

"Mother, it's me."

"Ah, it's Naoki~" Nagayama Nanako was a little surprised, "Why did you call back all of a sudden?"

"Didn't you say before that you would come back to help my eldest brother move? So let me ask about the specific time." Nagayama Naoki said, "Are my father and eldest brother still in the store?"

"They are still busy," the mother explained, and then said, "The specific time is set on March 1, which is exactly the beginning of March, which means a new beginning."

"There are still two days left!" Naoki Nagayama said in surprise, "So have the arrangements for the new house been made?"

"Well, the decoration and other things have been completed. When the time comes, pack your luggage and let the truck transport it directly." Mother Nanako described the process, "We have sorted out the general things in the past two days."

At this rate, when Nagayama Naoki and Tsuruko go back, they can at best help their eldest brother's family arrange the luggage and furniture they moved there, and then have a housewarming party.

Nagayama Naoki asked clearly about the process, and also chatted with his mother on the phone about some household matters, and asked about his nephew Nagayama's weeds. They chatted for more than half an hour before putting down the phone.

But then he called his sister Tsuruko again.

"Tsuruko."

"Bagani-chan, you actually hung up on me! There's a gift!"

"." I haven't forgotten it yet. It seems like I can't do it without giving it. "The gift is at Yamazakura. I'll give it to you directly when you come."

"That's more like it!" Hezi finally let out a breath of anger, "What's wrong, you called me suddenly?"

"Isn't it about going back? Are you coming with me or taking the Shinkansen by yourself?"

"Of course we'll take the car!" Tsuruko didn't hesitate at all, "When will Ni-chan go back?"

"The moving date is March 1, so I'm leaving that morning." Nagayama Naoki said, "If you want to come with me, you have to arrive at Sansakurain at 7 o'clock~"

"Seven o'clock. So early?"

"It's already 9 o'clock when we get back to Shizuoka." Nagayama Naoki said, "At least I have to help move things."

"Okay, I'll be there." Tsuruko suddenly raised his voice, "Get the gifts ready! I want to inspect the goods on the spot!"

"."

Click Naoki Nagayama pressed the microphone on the phone.

When we arrived at the studio the next day, before we could sit down, Shuichi Itou started talking excitedly about gossip.

"Naoki-san, did you know? There's another big gossip in the entertainment industry!"

Then he winked, as if he wanted Nagayama Naoki to ask further.

Nagayama Naoki was speechless. He hated saying half-finished words: "Since you said that, of course I don't know."

Yi Tangxiu was stunned for a moment. Wouldn't most people ask with interest at this time, "Oh? What is it? Tell me quickly!" Why is this guy Naoki-san different from others?

But it doesn’t matter. When he begs me, I will tell him mercifully! Itou Shuichi suppressed his excitement and waited for Nagayama Naoki to continue asking questions.

"."

There was silence everywhere, and the office fell into an awkward silence for a while.

a long time,

"Naoki-san, why didn't you ask me?" Itou Shuichi couldn't help it.

"Anyway, if you don't ask, Shuichi-san will still tell you." Nagayama Naoki's face was calm.

"." Itou Shuichi suddenly felt that his desire to share was gone.

Seeing that the child's mental resistance to shock was so low, Nagayama Naoki sighed in his heart. He still needs to train Shuichi-san more in the future!

But today, let’s satisfy him.

"Ahem, after hearing what you just said, I'm a little curious. Shuichi-san, what kind of gossip is this?" Nagayama Naoki asked calmly, as if he was perfunctory, and indeed he was perfunctory~

"Naoki-san, you will lose a good friend like this."

"Then Xiu Yisang, are you going to tell me or not?"

".I said!" Itou Xiuyi's voice sounded like a coercion being intimidated.

But after talking about the gossip, his voice immediately became full of energy.

"When I went to Tokyo University of the Arts yesterday, I chatted with the teacher for a while, and he told me!" Shu Itou glanced at Naoki Nagayama and said, "It also has something to do with Naoki-san!"

"Oh? Is it related to me?" Nagayama Naoki became interested.

"Remember the director who was frightened by Sadako and became incontinent?"

"Director Fukasaku Kinji?"

"Yes, yes, that's him!" Itou Shuichi said with excitement, "This old pervert likes to have scandals with young actresses all day long. The latest one is Matsusaka Keiko. A beautiful girl!"

"Ah Matsuzaka Keiko." Nagayama Naoki thought of this female artist who had a double relationship. She was indeed a beautiful lady of the imperial sister family.

"But since the last time he was frightened into incontinence and became a laughing stock in the entertainment industry, Fukasaku Kinji has been unlucky. First, he made a joke about his decades-old wife trying to poison him, and then he openly moved to Matsuzaka Kei My son’s house was recently photographed and kicked out at night!”

Yi Tangxiu's eyes shone brightly: "I just brought a suitcase! I was kicked out in the middle of the night!"

"?" Nagayama Naoki didn't believe it, "How can I say that director Fukasaku is not so miserable? Even if his personal ethics are bad, the movies he makes are still very good at the box office? Matsuzaka Keiko won't offend him so much, right? He himself You also have a family, right?"

"This has come to a critical point!" Itou Shuichi said, "I heard that when Fukasaku Kinji divorced, the house gave his wife half of the pension, and then she seemed to have been diagnosed with cancer. After chemotherapy, she became weak. In the past two years, There’s no chance of making a movie!”

"It's so miserable." Nagayama Naoki felt a little pity for this guy.

"Yes, the most outrageous thing is that at the recent Blue Ribbon Award Ceremony, for some reason, a large number of famous people in the industry were offended, so now everyone is secretly spreading black information about him!" Itou Shuichi shook his head. , seemed to be moved by this guy’s experience, “So after being photographed and kicked out of the house in the middle of the night, the news spread all of a sudden!”

"."

Nagayama Naoki mourned for the old man, but he had no idea of ​​​​redressing the injustice. Not to mention that this guy had enjoyed everything before, even though he had always been against tree friends in the past two years, he had no reason to help others.

Turning to look at Yoshimura Otomo, who had always been calm, Nagayama Naoki was curious: "Otomo-san, aren't you surprised?"

". Come early in the morning, Shuichi-san has already told me! I have been surprised for a long time." Fangcun Otomo looked calm and continued to deal with the matter at hand, "Besides, I have so many things to do now, and I am not in the mood to continue Relaxed."

"Oh? What's the matter?" Nagayama Naoki asked, "Is there anything I can do to help?"

Fangcun Dayou raised his head when he heard this. There seemed to be disbelief in his eyes, but it immediately turned into happiness: "Naoki-san, I really saw you right!"

Then he took out the to-do items on hand: "What I'm more anxious about here is the end-of-month report, Shuyou Entertainment's salary expenses, including the calculation of dividends with Rebellion and Kitten Club, and the business announced by artists. , it’s too complicated, I should do it and there’s a budget review next month.”

A large number of reports were about to be handed over to Naoki Nagayama, which made Naoki Nagayama regret his previous sentence.

"Otomo-san, I suddenly remembered."

Before he finished speaking, Nagayama Naoki suddenly felt that the temperature in the office had dropped. A low-pressure vortex that absorbed the temperature seemed to appear around Yoshimura Otomo's desk, making people shudder.

The glasses worn by Fangcun Otomo flashed with cold light, and his tone was calm and cold: "Naoki-san, what are you thinking of?"

Nagayama Naoki swallowed a sip of saliva, this is a daily show, why did it suddenly turn into a horror show?

His eyes turned around, but Shuichi Itou who was chattering next to him was looking out the window at the scenery at this time. It seemed that there was a UFO passing by. Nagayama Naoki's eyes were filled with hatred. If this is the case, then you can't blame me!

"Ah, I suddenly remembered that Shuichi-san can also share some of the burden!"

Itou Xiu, who was looking out the window, was startled for a moment, his eyes widened, and his tone was full of accusations:

"Naoki-san, what did you say? (Naoki-san, why did you do this to me?!)"

"Haha, Xiu Yisang seems to have nothing to do anyway and is still talking about gossip. (Who told you not to save me?!)"

"You and I don't."

Yoshimura Otomo seemed to have reacted, his glasses flashed with cold light again, and he looked at Itou Shuichi calmly, his tone was calm but with a strong sense of oppression:

"Xiu Yisang, are you unwilling to help?"

"." Itou Shuichi turned his face uncomfortably and avoided looking, "If you don't want to return it, please leave the hardest part to me!"

For a moment, the air pressure in the office returned to normal, and Fangcun Otomo smiled warmly:

"Let me tell you, Naoki-san and Shuichi-san are both such considerate people, how could they leave all the work to me alone!"

"If I meet such a boss, I will definitely be sad!"

The other two nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes~ It's really inappropriate to make Otomo-san sad!"

Being forcibly assigned some tasks, Nagayama Naoki and Itou Shuichi spent the morning in the office.

However, Yoshimura Otomo just vented his dissatisfaction that the two of them left without saying goodbye yesterday and left him to work overtime. All he really needed to do was simply review the past documents. The work that really needed continuous follow-up and advancement was still his own. This way.

When looking at the salary schedule, Nagayama Naoki discovered one thing:

"Otomo-san, it seems like we have a lot of new people coming this year!"

"Yes. Because the company has been reorganized, there are many positions that need to be filled." Yoshimura Otomo raised his head and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I mean, can our studio hold so many people?"

The current photo studio of Shuyou Group is actually the property of Shuichi Itou. The original shooting venue was demolished and then converted into the current large studio office. However, it can only accommodate more than 70 people at most. If it continues to be more.

Yoshimura Otomo also nodded: "On this point, we originally planned to reduce the distance between some desks to see if we could squeeze out some space."

"It's still a little too crowded." Nagayama Naoki thought for a while, "Shuiichi-san, are our box office shares of "Love Letter" and "Midnight Ring" about to be paid?"

"Ah, our share is settled once a quarter." Itou Shuichi said, "We can't come here until March."

"March"

Previously, Nagayama Naoki used all the funds in his name to establish an investment company, so now the company only has a few hundred million in its accounts. Liquidity is a bit tight.

"Actually, it's almost the same." Naoki Nagayama said to his two old friends, "Since Shuyou Group has been reorganized, should we also change our headquarters? How about buying a building?"

"Huh??" Yitou Shuichi and Yoshimura Otomo both listened carefully.

"With the future development, the company will definitely change its headquarters. It is better to decide this matter early. Not to mention that the real estate market has been rising. Even for this studio, don't we also need to establish a shooting base."

Naoki Nagayama talked eloquently: "We will buy a building in Roppongi or Minato Ward. It will be convenient for employees, and it will also be dignified when receiving guests. When the box office is divided in March, it can be used as funds for the purchase."

"This building? The box office money may not be enough."

"Who said we need a building with dozens of floors!" Naoki Nagayama said, "The lower floors or a certain floor are always enough. If it's not enough, I can temporarily lend my share to the company."

"In this case."

Suddenly I feel that there is nothing wrong with changing to another building~

The three people in the room began to discuss the location of the new headquarters and various moving procedures, with laughter and arguments mixed in during the process.

The moving process of Japanese companies is very precise. After knowing that the move is to be made, the leaders will start meetings, then assign the heads of various departments, and then make time every day to hold meetings to study the details of the moving plan.

After countless meetings, it is said that each employee has a moving instruction, which lists all the processes and materials in great detail. The following staff will then meticulously complete the move according to this plan.

Hayano Riko walked into the office to sign. After listening to a few words, the news that Shuyou Group was moving spread in the studio.

"What, the studio is moving to Roppongi?"

"No, no, no, I heard that I am moving to Shinjuku and buying an office building on the first floor!"

"Naoki-san wants to leave the box office share to the company to change rooms? Are you still in Akasaka?"

"Tree friends want to buy a building in the port area?"

"Pass it down, Naoki-san wants to buy an office building in Ginza!"

"."

All Shuyou employees are enthusiastically discussing the location of the new headquarters, including how to move, whether they need to rent a new house, etc. In short, everyone is looking forward to the new headquarters.

Because this undoubtedly means that Shuyou Group will reach a higher level! And their future will be brighter!
