Tokyo bubble life

Idou Shuichi hurried into the studio and slumped down in the office~

"I'm so tired." This man who still had a lot of literary and artistic atmosphere drank water in big gulps and complained to Yoshimura Otomo across from him, "Naoki ran away by himself and left a lot of things on my head!"

After Naoyama Naoki won the Academy Award again, he also won good results in other large and small film awards.

Of course he didn't want to accept it himself, but Shuyou still wanted to stay in the film industry, so he had to send Idou Shuichi to accept it on his behalf. At the same time, there were many interviews, talks, parties, etc., and Idou Shuichi participated in all those related to the film industry.

When asked, it was "Naoki-san went abroad to check out locations for his next movie."

Yoshimura Otomo laughed: "Isn't it the same thing before? Shuichi-san, you know Naoki-san doesn't like these things."

"But the connections in the film industry are very important, right? At such a critical moment!"

Idou Shuichi was still unhappy, but seemed to remember something.

"By the way, Otomo-san, have you found the lobbying team for the Palme d'Or?"

"Of course, I found the film selector for the Palme d'Or in Asia, and the vice president of the International Producers Association to help with the lobbying."

Yoshimura Otomo was full of confidence. Most of the presidents and members of the International Producers Association are well-known producers, but most of them are just in name only, and the vice president is in charge of the work.

"Oh?" Ito Shuichi was curious, "How much did it cost?"

"It's only 100 million~" Yoshimura Otomo laughed, "I didn't expect that the vice president would agree so easily."

One hundred million yen, according to the current exchange rate, is only about 400,000 US dollars. Yoshimura Otomo found a middleman to negotiate, but he didn't expect the other party to be very easy to satisfy. In fact, Yoshimura Otomo's bottom line is 1 million US dollars.

It's just a few nice words. I guess the vice president didn't expect that someone would be willing to pay so much money. This vice president is a Frenchman who is famous for making avant-garde movies.

There are so many producers in the world, and not all of them make a lot of money~

"I see~"

Ito Shu nodded and didn't say much. You can't just find one lobbying team. There must be many other investments later.

Thinking of this, he stood up immediately: "No, I still have to contact more famous alumni! Naoki-san is winning glory for the country, and the Ministry of Education should also support it!"

Ever since Naoki Nagayama shouted that he would leave his acceptance speech to the Palme d'Or, everyone knows his determination to hit the Palme d'Or.

In the Japanese film industry, no more than one person has won an international award. In the early stage of the bubble of rapid economic development, Japan's economic level has reached the level of developed countries, but its cultural level is still insufficient.

So they attach great importance to international honors. In order to encourage movies to go abroad, they have specially formulated policies to support the revitalization of movies.

If "Kikujiro's Summer" wins the award, then the Ministry of Education will have a political achievement!

Yoshimura Otomo looked at his friend who ran out in a hurry and shook his head. Naoki Nagayama, this guy, can make others run around even if he is not there.

At this time. Rio de Janeiro.

Copacabana Beach, a world-famous beach!

Waves of waves hit the 4.5-kilometer-long beach, and the snow-white waves and white fine sand merge together, welcoming tourists from all over the world in the warm temperature all year round.

And Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori arrived here today~

This is not a swimsuit photo shoot, so Akina did not wear a sexy bikini, but a loose yellow dress with large flowers, posing in the sea breeze.

Some of the team members next to him were holding reflectors, some were holding cameras, some were holding cosmetics, and some were holding colorful cocktails and fruit platters.

Yes, Naoki Nagayama became a waiter holding wine, and when his girlfriend was resting and touching up her makeup, he promptly delivered drinks and handed over fruits to replenish energy.

"Hey, Naoki-san, open your mouth~"

Akina Nakamori smiled and pierced a piece of mango with a small toothpick, and did not forget to feed her boyfriend while eating it herself.

Naoki Nagayama naturally ate it without hesitation~

The team members next to him turned their heads away in disdain. Since the morning work, this couple has not avoided others at all! Drinking a sip of soda for a while, eating a piece of fruit for a while, and then sharing an ice cream!

Is it the warm and relaxed atmosphere of South America that makes these two people completely forget that they are here to work!

The process of shooting a cover for a star is very tedious. Sometimes you have to take many photos for one pose, sometimes you have to shoot while moving, and sometimes you have to shoot the protagonist's daily life.

Accompanied by Naoki Nagayama, Akina Nakamori found various angles on the beach.

Of course, Naoki Nagayama was not just a subordinate. He also brought a camera with him. When he saw a good view, he would take photos himself. Sometimes Akina Nakamori would come over to help take a few photos~

Sometimes:

"Mr. Honda Nobuyasu, please take a group photo for us!"

Naoki Nagayama smiled and handed the camera to the professional photographer Honda Nobuyasu, asking him to help take a group photo of himself and Akina~ Obviously there were professionals next to him, of course he couldn't miss it!!!

Honda Shinyasu took it over silently. Facing this guy who took everyone to a high-end restaurant for dinner last night, he really couldn't say no.

The background is the blue sky and blue sea, and there is a line-like beach shot. In the shot, Akina, wearing a bright dress, is leaning next to Naoki Nagayama, with a bright smile on her face. Bie puts his hand on his face and playfully puts a The feet were raised.

Naoki Nagayama, who was wearing a floral shirt next to him, held Akina's thin waist with one hand to help fix his body shape, and then tacked on her in a tacky way with the other hand. He had the same bright smile on his face~

With a click, this scene was recorded!

Honda Shinyasu is still sighing, it would be great if Akina could use this picture for the cover. Such a happy smile comes from the heart!

"Naoki-san, change your posture! Be cooler!" While still sighing, the photographer heard Akina Nakamori directing the people next to her, "Biye is too cliche!"

Nagayama Naoki asked: "What should we do? Let's show love together?"

“It’s not impossible”

After saying that, the two guys started gesticulating again, laughing from time to time~

Honda Shinyasu suddenly felt that he had eaten a little too much. After this trip, he will definitely gain weight!

In a high school in Osaka, high school student Yuna Matsuda was discussing the plot of "Love Century" she had watched with her best friend.

"Teppei clearly hasn't forgotten Sanae in high school!" Matsuda Yuna said in an unflattering tone, "Can't he see that Riko has fallen in love with him?!"

My best friend Yumina Nakagawa understands very well:

"It's my first love. Of course I won't forget it. I'll probably never forget it for the rest of my life!"

"But Sanae is going to marry Teppei's brother Shoichiro!!" Matsuda Yuna said fiercely, "Then she will become a sister-in-law! How will we get along with each other in the future?!"

"Isn't it just 'sister-in-law is my first girlfriend'~" Yumina Nakagawa said calmly, "Ah, no, it's 'brother-in-law is my first boyfriend'!"

Matsuda Yuna slapped her best friend on the head who looked a little offended: "Yumi-chan, wake up! Don't think so wrongly!!!"

".But, it's obviously very exciting."

"Baga, you are a high school student! Why do you have so many strange thoughts in your mind!" Matsuda Yuna hit Yuna Nakagawa on the head again and again with her homework book, causing her best friend's head to scatter.

".Stop fighting~ I'm just a little more mature than you."

"You're already done with this! Stop reading those weird books and books!"

"I can't do anything!" Yumina Nakagawa covered her head and expressed her final stubbornness!

Matsuda Yuna didn't know what to say to her best friend. Ever since she entered high school, this guy seemed to have fallen into a yellow dye bucket, dyeing herself yellow quickly!

After putting down her homework book, Matsuda Yuna found the topic:

"Also, in last Friday's episode, Takagi clearly knew that his friend Riko liked Zheping, and he showed his love to Zheping! He was really not a friend enough!"

"The key is that Teppei followed Takagi home after that!" Nakagawa Yumina immediately added fuel to the fire, with a somewhat excited expression, "If Riko hadn't been on Takagi's bed, then the two of them would have had sex!"

"You are hopeless!" Matsuda Yuna was helpless.

Then he said: "No matter what, these relationships are too complicated!!! This guy Zheping is also very unscrupulous!!!"

"Yeah~" Nakagawa Yumina nodded in agreement.

Matsuda Yuna became angrier as she talked and slammed the table: "I'm going to call Fuji TV. They're really ruining an innocent relationship by filming like this!!"

"Eh? Do you want to call?"

"Of course, I'm going to scold that screenwriter! Why did he write it in such a mess!"

"The screenwriter is Naoki Nagayama!"

"Ah, you playboy Naoki! It turns out that only a scumbag would write such a plot!"

Matsuda Yuna complained to Nagayama Naoki who didn't know where he was for several minutes, and then suddenly found that she didn't get a response. She turned around and saw her best friend flipping through a book.

"Yumi-chan, what are you looking at?"

Nakagawa Yumina raised the book mysteriously: "The latest banned book! - "Paradise Lost""

"?what book?"

"Here, let's see!" Nakagawa Yuna handed the book to Matsuda Yuna, and then looked at her expression with a smirk.

"The cover is very simple~ It looks like a literary book!"

After Matsuda Yuna took the book, she opened it casually. As soon as she saw the first chapter, her face became strange, and then she closed it instantly and stared at her best friend.

"What kind of big pervert is this that would write such a little emperor's letter!!!"

When "Century of Love" became more and more popular, a very simple novel suddenly appeared in various bookstores.

On the pure white cover, there is only the name "Paradise Lost" and the confusing author - Sato.

"Who is this guy? New guy?"

Customers visiting bookstores sometimes ask this question, but the clerk doesn't know.

"I've never heard of it, but when Shogakukan delivered it, they said it was going to be a big tweet."

"Oh thick?" The guest became interested, then opened the book and started reading.

Generally, at this time, guests’ reactions are divided into three types:

The first type, the customer's face changes, and the customer quickly closes the book, and then makes a shy sound. Usually it is a female customer.

The second type, the customer's face changes, breathing becomes rapid, and then the customer quickly closes the book. Looking around, hesitating, and then blushingly walks to the cashier, whispering: "Please just this one"

The third type, the customer's face is calm, as if he has read an ordinary novel, and then walks to the cashier without saying a word, quickly pays and leaves~

The latter two types of customers are both male and female~

The literary circle in Tokyo seems to have been penetrated by a certain novel all of a sudden. Famous writers and critics are very curious about who the author of "Paradise Lost" is.

This kind of writing style that is not lewd is unique, and no one in the entire literary circle has ever written it!

And from the choice of words and sentences, it is obvious that there is a strong personal style, maybe he is writing his own story

The final suicide for love is indeed in line with the Japanese culture of mono no aware~

"It can't be the author's autobiography, the author has committed suicide for love!" "I haven't heard such news recently?"

"Who is the author?"

"."

Similar questions are heard all the time.

And because the final suicide for love is written too beautifully, critics have already written their impressions in the newspapers-"This novel may cause a wave of suicide for love!"

Shogakukan's director, Morikawa Kuniji, has not been at peace at work during this period.

"Good morning, Kuniji-san!" When the front desk bespectacled girl Nozawa Reiki and Nishihara Mitsuko greeted him, their eyes were a little strange.

"Good morning" Morikawa Kuniji hurried upstairs without even looking at the two people.

On the way to the office, the baby-faced editorial assistant Furuya Yuya walked up to him with a sharp look:

"Kunji-san! Who is Sato?! Please tell me!"

"I don't know!"

Morikawa Kuniji wanted to bypass him to go to the office, but Furuya Yuya didn't give up at all,

"Impossible, I have asked the printing factory, it was Kuniji-san who took it to typeset and print!"

Morikawa Kuniji saw that he couldn't bypass him, so he could only say:

"The author asked for confidentiality! I can't tell you!"

Furuya Yuya's face was full of disbelief, and his eyes began to become weird: "Kunji-san, can't the rumors be true?!"

"What rumors?" Morikawa Kuniji was stunned.

"Everyone is saying that this novel may be written by Kuniji-san!" Furuya Yuya had a skeptical expression on his face, "Because the protagonist is a senior editor of a publishing house, and he is gentle and elegant"

"." Morikawa Kuniji didn't say anything, pushed away the assistant who was still pestering, "I said it wasn't me!"

Looking at the back of his direct superior who hurried away, his face showed an expression of "there is only one truth"!

On the other hand, after entering the office, Kuniharu Morikawa fell on the chair and slapped his forehead helplessly.

"Naoki-san, Naoki-san, you really left me with a big problem!!!"

Since the release of "Paradise Lost", everyone who knew that he was in charge came to ask him who the author was, and because of the protagonist's identity as an editor, the suspicion that he was the author even spread to his home.

His wife is also an insider. Last night, his wife asked him with a strange expression if he had an extramarital affair!

She also asked in an accusatory tone why he didn't have sex with her. Was he with the extramarital affair partner?

As a result, Kuniharu Morikawa had to pay public grain three times.

"Naoki-san, if I can't keep a secret, don't blame me."
