Tokyo bubble life

The headquarters of TV Asahi has a glass exterior wall, which emits dazzling reflections under the sun, making it very present.

When Nagayama Naoki arrived here, he drove directly into the parking lot and went directly to the "Music Station" studio from the underground elevator.

After opening the door, I heard loud music and dancing. During the rehearsal, although they did not wear special performance clothes, the youth team still rehearsed the dance seriously on the stage.

"Naoki-san, why are you here?" One of the producers, Motokatsu Okawa, first discovered Naoki Nagayama.

"I'm still interested in the third period, so I came to take a look." Naoki Nagayama said while watching the performance on stage, "The three members of the youth team are really energetic~"

"Hey, I heard that the reputation of the junior team has grown very quickly after the first two periods."

"Haha, after all, we have a permanent program." Naoki Nagayama suddenly remembered the amazing scene of Johnny's future light GENJI group, "If you want to make a splash, you can let the members of the youth team wear transparent clothes. Come out and try dancing."

"Transparent?" Okawa Yuankatsu opened his eyes wide, "Does it mean naked?"

At this moment, the sight of the three youth team members wearing transparent clothes flashed through Okawa Motokatsu's mind. He felt a chill, had bad thoughts about Nagayama Naoki, and quietly moved away from him.

Nagayama Naoki quickly explained: "Of course not, just wear it on the upper body. It will cause a sensation."

"This is no longer a sensation, it involves astringent feelings!!!" Okawa Yuankatsu said nervously.

"Aren't you wearing clothes?"

"It's transparent! It's even more tempting!"

Black threads welled up in Naoki Nagayama's head. He didn't want to discuss the difference between a fling and a romantic relationship with Motokatsu Okawa here: "Forget it, I'll just say it casually. Johnny's agent estimates I won’t agree to it either. Let’s not continue~”

".Hi!"

Okawa Motokatsu nodded, but he still felt that the image was hard to dissipate in his mind.

Nagayama Naoki saw that the opening dance of the youth team had ended, and then Tamori started to host, so he asked:

"The guest this time is Xicheng Hideki, right?"

"Hi."

"The video of the interview has been completed, right? Did it go well?"

"Hey, everyone is very cooperative." Okawa Motokatsu said. It seems that everyone sees the potential of "Music Station" and is unwilling to be abandoned by this program.

"But there's something." Motokatsu Okawa glanced at Naoki Nagayama's face and asked cautiously, "Because our next guest plan is to invite Johnny's idol, Johnny's manager wants Kondo Masahiko to attend."

Nagayama Naoki frowned, why did he hear this name again! Sure enough, we should let him sink to Tokyo Bay as early as possible!

"I don't like that guy." Naoki Nagayama answered clearly, "That's why "Music Station" won't invite him. If Johnny must use this to embarrass us, he is the only male idol in the family, but Johnny \u0026 Associates is not the only one for other singers and artists.”

"Hey, I got it!"

With such a clear reply, Okawa Yuankatsu now understood the firm attitude of the young man in front of him. At the same time, he secretly cursed Johnny's manager for actually proposing the idea even though he knew that there was such a big conflict between his idol and the person in charge of the show. Let Kondo Masahiko participate?

This is embarrassing for me!

While the two were chatting, Naoki Nagayama's arrival was finally noticed by more people in the studio.

Immediately, familiar male idols such as Boys and Toshihiko Tahara came over to say hello, as well as female idols such as Kashiwahara Yoshie and Okada Nana, who had worked with them, and even some artists whom they didn’t know but had often seen on TV, also came to meet them. For a moment.

When he was a well-known writer, musician, director, etc., people in the entertainment industry would be surprised at most and show respect when they saw him, and a small number of them would want to come over and make friends. He is not as popular as he is now. degree.

After becoming the person in charge of a well-known variety show, people in the entertainment industry know that this is the person who can decide whether to invite them to the show. In other words, he is the person who can decide the frequency of his exposure and can have a direct impact on his fame. .

This is why everyone comes over to make friends. If you want to leave a good impression, at least it can't be in person.

"This is the first time we meet. My name is Okada Yukiko! Please take good care of me in the future!"

Just when Naoki Nagayama couldn't remember it, a sweet girl introduced herself to Naoki Nagayama under the leadership of her manager.

"Okada Yukiko?" Naoki Nagayama looked at this handsome and innocent idol, a little surprised, "So it's you!"

"Hmm?" Okada Yukiko's eyes were a little awkward and shy, "Does Naoki-san know me?"

"I heard it from a friend." Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "She said you are an idol with great potential."

"Eh?"

Naoki Nagayama thought about this young girl in the future and committed suicide by jumping off a building. It’s really a pity~

"In short, be positive and optimistic, don't climb stairs, work hard! I just got my daddy!"

Just when Okada Yukiko wanted to ask who spoke so highly of her, other idols handed over their business cards, which diverted Nagayama Naoki's attention.

"Why does he say to be positive and optimistic and not to climb stairs?"

"What a strange person~"

Nagayama Naoki has finished watching today's rehearsal in the studio and has some ideas for tomorrow night's live broadcast. After the first few episodes are over, the next step should be to keep it going. In addition to the invited guests from the idol circle, the guests should also be expanded.

I think in the entertainment industry, Misora ​​Hibari should be able to invite people from abroad. It would be great if Madonna could be invited. But others are already American queens, so they may not remember their one-time relationship~

While Naoki Nagayama was overseeing the production of new programs at TV Asahi, a team at Fuji TV was in trouble.

Akimoto Yasushi looked at the fluctuating ratings this week and sighed:

"Da Taisang, the ratings of "Twilight Meow" have stopped going up."

Sugiura Otai also pressed his temples irritably: "There's nothing I can do about it, it's a program that is broadcast every day."

If a variety show is broadcast every day, it will be a very serious test for the production team. It is also very easy for the contestants and the audience to fall into sensory fatigue.

"Da Tai-san, how about we make a finale of the first season like other variety shows, and then take a short break to let the audience and us recover temporarily?" Nishi Rumi suggested from the side.

""Twilight Meow Meow" is different from them!" Sugiura Oyasu said, "This program is like a chariot that needs to keep moving forward. When it stops, the program will stop!"

"This is what Naoki-san said when he first planned the program!"

A fast-paced entertainment variety show like "Dusk Meow" actually only occupies a first-mover advantage and attracts all the attention of informal idols in the current market.

Freshness is the only selling point of this variety show. Compared with orthodox idols, the fans of the idols in the Kitten Club do not have high loyalty, and they are easily replaced because the members of the Kitten Club themselves are constantly replaced.

"If we stop, the loss of fans will be serious. And you can guarantee that if we stop this week, three or four similar variety shows will suddenly appear on other TV stations next week!"

Nishi Rumi did not expect such consequences and stopped talking after listening.

After being silent for a long time, Sugiura Otai thought for a long time and finally said: "We still need to consult Naoki-san!"

When Qiu Yuanyasu heard this, he originally looked a little dissatisfied, but as if he thought of something, he suddenly became depressed.

"Okay. You really should consult."

"But Naoki-san should focus on TV Asahi's program now, right?" Nishirumi said, "Will he still give advice to one of the competing TV stations?"

Yasushi Akimoto and Otasu Sugiura looked at each other and were about to say that "Twilight Meow Meow" was also his show, but they both shut up again.

When this program was first planned, Nagayama Naoki did have relatively large authority. However, later on, especially when Minister Takano Kazuki wanted to increase the proportion of Fuji TV, Nagayama Naoki no longer had the title of producer or supervisor. Not to mention that the tree friend’s shares in the Kitten Club are only 10%.

"Akizu Sack!" Otasu Sugiura suddenly remembered, "Isn't "Newspeak Buzzword Awards" also Naoki-san's program?"

"That show?"

The ratings for a program that is once a month can only be considered good. If the management of the station did not value it, it might be regarded as a dispensable program.

Yasushi Akimoto said: "It was a show to save face. It was for the Ministry of Culture and it also had some political influence."

"I remember that show. Now the content is led by people from the National Freedom Association and Shogakukan. We are only responsible for the production. But Naoki-san is indeed one of the producers of that show." Sugiura Oyasu said, "He just has a long history. Didn’t come over.”

"Sure enough, I agree with Naoki-san's personality. Once the program is on track, I won't care about it anymore," Akimoto Yasushi sighed.

"It's almost the end of the month, so it's easy to ask Naoki-san to come over in the name of that show." Nishi Rumi asked again: "Then how do we get Naoki-san to give suggestions to "Dusk Meow Meow"?"

"This" Sugiura Oitai once again regretted the unpleasantness between him and Naoki-san.

At this moment, Akimoto Yasu struggled and said:

"Naoki-san is a guy who attaches great importance to potential talents. Do you still remember the little Hidden Maki Kaoru from before?"

"Is she the heroine of the recent movie "Love Will End Like the Rain"?" Nishi Rumi said immediately, "I saw it in the cinema, and she looked completely different from how she looked in the Kitten Club!"

"Yes." Yasushi Akimoto considered it for a moment and continued, "Naoki-san fell in love with the little bitumaki after watching it on Fuji TV. After I found out, I contacted Etsurou Kikuchi to send him to the tree. Under the banner of Friends, she was chosen as the heroine in the next movie."

"It was at that time that Naoki-san pointed out the style problem of "Dusk Meow Meow" and suggested a rebellious style."

Nishi Rumi had no idea what was going on behind this, and she opened her mouth at this moment: "Akimoto-san, you actually exchanged your idol for it?!"

Is this the legendary pillow business? !

Is Naoki-san actually secretly making unspoken rules for female idols? ! I really misjudged him!

Nishi Rumi's impression of Nagayama Naoki is constantly crumbling. Fortunately, Sugiura Oyasu quickly explained:

"Nishi Rumi, don't think too much! Naoki-san just has the vision to explore the potential of idols. Didn't Obira Maki Kaoru shine in the movie?!"

"."

Nishi Rumi looked at the two men across from her with suspicion. In short, there is no way to get away with exchanging resources with her artists!

"Ahem." Sugiura Otae tried to remain calm, "Akimoto-san, why are you talking about this?"

"During previous contacts," Yasushi Akimoto pointed to a poster on the wall and pointed at one of the contestants, "I found out that Naoki-san is very interested in Kudo Shizuka."

Sugiura Otai touched his chin: "What do you mean?"

"Why don't we consider the declining ratings of "Dusk Meow" as a reason for Kudo Shizuka to 'graduate' to Shuyu. Please Naoki-san analyze the program again!"

Akimoto Yasushi said without blushing and without a beating heart, although Kudo Shizuka is currently one of the popular members of the Kitten Club, in his heart at this time, Kudo Shizuka is no different from a commodity.

"Well"

Otasu Sugiura thought about it, a potential player who changed programs was reborn. This exchange

Very cost-effective!

"Okay. So be it!"

Two guys who really have the decision-making power have decided whether Shizuka Kudo will stay or go.

"Nishirumi-san~" Otasu Sugiura's tone became gentle, "I would also like to trouble you to contact Naoki-san."

Nishirumi was still calming down from just now, and felt a little unhappy when she heard this: "You made the decision, and you actually want me to tell it?"

"After all, you are relatively familiar with Naoki-san." Sugiura Otaishi said with a smile, "Besides, you are a woman."

"?!"

Xi Rumei's eyes narrowed slightly. If he dared to say that he was a vase, don't blame yourself for getting angry!

"She's still a beauty!" Otasu Sugiura quickly added, "And as we all know, Naoki-san is very patient with beauties."

Akimoto Yasushi was also advising from the side: "What I said to Otaisan is a bit awkward, so I have to trouble Nishirumi-san!"

"."

This statement made Nishimi feel a little better, but the thought of telling Nagayama Naoki that she wanted to send him a female idol was really hard to open her mouth!

But after all, in the workplace, you always have to do some embarrassing things!

At this time, in the studio downstairs of Fuji TV, members of the Kitten Club were filming the indoor part of the new issue of "Twilight Meow Meow". Among the dedicated contestants, there was one who had a very unique personality that made him laugh. A player that people remember at a glance.

She was with her companions and showed a bright smile in front of the camera~

Kudo Shizuka doesn’t know yet, but she has been promised to Naoki Nagayama by her superiors.

But for Kudo Shizuka, maybe this is a rare opportunity! After all, the current development trends of all tree friends’ idols are very good.
