Tokyo bubble life

in the bedroom in the morning,

Naoki Nagayama opened his eyes,

The bed next to it was empty.

Of course!

Yesterday at noon Mingcai came over for a lunch, and then in the afternoon Naoki Naoyama sent him to the rehearsal of the Red and White Song Concert.

Just kissing and hugging for a while, just a little time at noon, what can I do~

Today is the day to attend the preview of "Midnight Ring", even though it's at night, you have to go to the company in advance to prepare.

The showers had just stopped, and Tokyo was thoroughly washed.

The sunny day in winter is bright and blue, with a few white clouds dotted in the empty sky, which is perfect like a scene in a comic book world; on the roads of the city and the branches and leaves of trees, there is still some rainwater, which is frozen into crystal clear ice , sparkling in the morning sun.

Through the glass of the car window, Naoki Naoyama rushed towards the studio while admiring the city after the rain.

The atmosphere in the studio is busy today. The film that occupies the bulk of the company's business is about to be screened, and the boss of the company is going to participate. The related drafts and follow-up publicity also need to keep up, plus various other guarantees

Although only a few people were busy, the atmosphere permeated the entire studio.

"Naoki-san, you are here!" The newcomer Ochiai Jizhi quickly integrated into the team of Shuyou Yinghua, and greeted Naoki Naoyama with everyone.

"Jizhi-chan, why didn't you see Riko-chan?" Yongshan Naoki looked around.

"She went to the scene to prepare," Ochiai Jizhi replied, "I went to arrange the background board for the media meeting and the safeguard measures for the preview in advance."

"Safety precautions?"

"Hey, it's ambulances and medical equipment." Ochiai Toshie smiled, "Although it's unlikely that there will be any problems, we still have to make sure everything is safe!"

"Haha, Lizijiang is really reliable." As a boss, he is already very familiar with the technique of boasting.

"Naoki-san, then I will go to work first, there are still a few media that need to be contacted again."

"Hmm~"

Why do many bosses like to stay in the company?

Because only in the company, there will be many subordinates who can listen to his orders, complete the tasks he assigns, and then make him feel like a very important person.

Naoki Naoyama felt the same way.

After walking into the office, Yoshimura Otomo and Itou Shuichi were already there.

"Otomo-san, will you go to today's screening?" Naoki Yongshan asked while sitting on a chair.

"Forget it, I don't want to revisit that horror scene again!"

There was a trace of fear on Fangcun Dayu's face, so he would not tell Naoki Yongshan that since he watched the movie in advance, he was trembling all night long.

"Okay~" Naoki Naoyama did not persuade much, "Then the subsequent promotion and release are ready?"

"Hi!" Speaking of business, Otomo Fangcun's face became serious, "After the preview screening ends tonight, there will be reports. The next two days will be the peak period of publicity, and the official release will be on the weekend night!"

"Relevant posters, display racks, leaflets and other promotional materials have long been in the movie theaters, and each movie theater has also prepared a pair of first aid equipment."

Naoki Yongshan nodded again and again: "How is the cooperation of Kadokawa's publishing company this time?"

Otomo Fangcun paused for a moment: "Of course Kadokawa Yinghua is very cooperative."

Although it has shares in Kadokawa, it is a competitive company of Kadokawa Films after all, and it is a company with far better performance than Kadokawa Films itself.

Although the upper management is still supportive and encouraging, during the last release of "Hot Blooded High School", Naoki Naoyama has found some delays or resistance.

It's just a pity that every movie Shuyou Yinghua has is ridiculously attractive, and it doesn't cause any losses.

"Well, there's no way around it." Shuichi Ido said, "After all, we only have a channel with Kadokawa Distribution Company, and we still have to go through their film company, and the cost is kept to a minimum. And some other publicity work , including premieres, press conferences, etc., are actually planned and executed by ourselves.”

Naoki Yongshan was not too troubled, and naturally had a solution to this kind of thing: "Sure enough, as a film production company, we still need to have our own distribution channels."

Yi Tangxiu sat up straight: "Do you want to establish your own distribution company?"

"A small start-up company does not have such strength and reputation." Naoki Naoyama glanced at Shuichi Itou: "But Shuichi-san, in fact, our size is enough to build our own distribution department."

"Shall we build the department first?"

"Hi." Naoki Naoyama took a deep breath, "Actually, I feel that besides movies, the business of Shuyou Films currently includes idols, records, copyright management and some asset management. Of course, this is mainly me. Hahaha, I bought a lot of houses."

Otomo Fangcun and Shuichi Itou both laughed, but the rent of Naoki Naoyama's property and the income of that disco are actually no less than those of some small companies.

"And next year I plan to open an investment-related company." Naoki Naoyama continued, "In short, the current organizational structure of Shuyou Pictures can no longer keep up with our development."

The other two people in the office were a little surprised: "What does Naoki-san mean, are we going to carry out company reform?"

"almost"

"Next year, I plan to separate out different businesses, form an independent subsidiary company, and upgrade Shuyou Pictures to Shuyou Group!"

Naoki Yongshan has never presided over the management of a group company before. He was only a technical director at the highest level in his previous life. However, have you never seen a pig run or eaten pork?

"this"

Fangcun Dayu and Yitang Xiuyi couldn't believe it. It's only been about three years, and they are already going to manage the group?

"Although it sounds like we are at the same level as big groups like Mitsubishi Group and Mitsui Group, in fact, we are still a small and medium-sized enterprise, but it is just to make the business and work that each is responsible for clearer."

Naoki Naoyama explained a little bit, and then said the famous quote that often appears in TED speeches,

"In short, take it step by step and let professional people do professional things!"

"Hey, we got it!"

Seeing the determined expressions of the two people, Naoki Yongshan couldn't help muttering, what did they understand.

In the early morning, I first shocked the two friends with a plan that sounded lofty, but after that, I still have to do what I have to do!

"Naoki-san, you have been absent from the editing of "Love Letter" for a long time! Before going to the preview today, stay in the editing room first!"

".Hi"

Also in the morning, Yoji Yamada from Shochiku handed an invitation letter to Kinji Fukasaku.

"Xin Erjun, do you really want to see that movie?"

"Of course!" Fukasaku Kinji also smiled, "I even contacted some media to release the news, saying that I was going to 'taste' horror movies by emerging directors.

At that time, as soon as I come out, they will definitely come to interview me! "

"And then I'll say something like that's not worthy of the name, it's mediocre!"

While talking, Fukasaku Kinji actually laughed:

"Hahaha, horror movies are originally niche movies, and they are very popular. How many people will watch the news of being criticized by seniors in the industry?"

Yoji Yamada looked at the junior in front of him and felt that he was a little obsessed:

"Xin Ersang, maybe this movie has something to offer~ Let's save some morals!"

Fukasakuxin was very disdainful: "Even if the movie is not bad, it will not stand up to serious and meticulous analysis. I will definitely watch it carefully with my eyes wide open. If I can find a few scenes that are fake, it will be fun!"

"...That's a horror movie, aren't you afraid of being scared?"

"Hahaha, I'm so old, what kind of horror movie routines haven't I experienced?!"

Fukasaku Kinji became more and more confident, "This time, I have to let Naoki Naoyama know what it means to lose face!!!"

Yoji Yamada could only offer encouragement again: "Gang Dad! Xin Er-kun!"

In the evening, Naoki Naoyama and Osamu Itou drove to the "Wenyiza" cinema in Ikebukuro again. The reason why they chose this place for the movie preview was because there were more young people here.

There is no parking lot for "Literary Sit", so the two parked their car in a distant roadside parking space.

"Naoki-san, what are you doing so tightly wrapped?"

After getting out of the car, Shuichi Ido noticed that Naoki Naoyama had turned up his high collar and was wearing a big scarf, covering half of his face.

"Last time, I was photographed here by a reporter, and I should be more careful with the current situation."

"Hahaha, has the flirtatious Naoki-san actually started to be afraid of gossip?" Shuichi Ido laughed again, this time the gossip was too big, it has become a stalk for him to molested his friends.

"."

Forget it, I still ignore this guy, the more I talk about it, the more energetic I am.

Turning around and walking towards the entrance of the cinema, I found that an ambulance had already parked next to the cinema, and I could see doctors and nurses in white clothes getting ready.

When I walked to the lobby of the cinema, I found a small table next to the front desk in the lobby, where first aid equipment was placed.

"Naoki-san, do you think you will use it today?" Itou Shuichi asked curiously.

"Didn't the older audience have been made to choose carefully?" Naoki Yongshan predicted, "There is a high probability that it will not be used."

There are already people coming in one after another in the hall. There are many reporters with cameras on their shoulders. There are also some familiar people who are invited film critics and movie lovers in the industry. Some other young faces are from horror shows and clubs. Lucky viewers who come out of the lottery.

Moreover, at the lobby site, some tickets were released. If there are audiences who don't know, if they want to take a look, they can also come in.

"Naoki-san, Xiuichi-san!"

Riko Hayano had been waiting here for a long time, and when she saw her boss coming, she hurriedly greeted her.

"Riko-chan, you've worked hard~"

Yongshan Naoki looked around, "Is everything going well so far?"

"Hey, everyone from the production team has come, and the invited people have also arrived."

This side is listening to the employee's report, while Shuichi Ido has already greeted familiar industry insiders, but when Naoki Naoyama took off his scarf, a lot of reporters ran over.

"Naoki-san, I haven't seen you recently!" "Naoki-san, can you tell me about the FNS song festival?" "Is today's movie the same as Akina-san's movie?"

With the blinking flashes, the reporters began to ask other questions, and for a moment the cinema hall seemed to be a media meeting for Naoki Naoyama.

"Riko-chan, I'm counting on you here!"

Naoki Yongshan had no choice but to run away, and immediately ran to the broadcasting hall while the surrounding crowd still had a gap.

I only heard Riko Hayano saying loudly in the hall:

"...Today is the preview of "Midnight Ring", other questions will not be accepted!"

The studio was dark and quiet, and he found his seat in the front row and sat down, only then did he get rid of the reporter's questioning.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, a voice came from behind:

"Haha, Naoki-san is indeed the hottest recently!"

"Ah, it's Yuko-san~" Naoki Naoyama turned his head and saw Yuko Tanaka, "I didn't see you just now."

"Thanks to Naoki-san, the reporters were all attracted away, so I can walk in quietly." Yuko Tanaka sat next to him and took off his scarf, "Naoki-san really has a gossip physique!"

"Oh..." Naoki Naoyama sighed, but he didn't intend to explain anymore, he simply changed the topic,

"How is Yuko-san?"

"I just finished filming a movie, so naturally I will be on the show occasionally during my break." Yuko Tanaka said in a relaxed tone, "The Chinese New Year is coming soon. After I prepare the movie promotion during this period, I will go to Sapporo to celebrate the New Year."

"Sapporo?" Naoki Naoyama knew for the first time that Yuko Tanaka's hometown was in Sapporo.

"Well, it's snowing heavily in Hokkaido, which is very suitable for skiing."

"Yeah, I've been skiing before"

The two were chatting, and they seemed not worried about today's preview meeting at all.

At this time, there were already many pairs of sharp eyes staring at Naoki Nagayama in the studio, and one of them belonged to Kinji Fukasaku.

Seeing Naoki Nagayama and Yuko Tanaka chatting, he sneered:

"Naoki Yongshan is indeed a guy who forgets where he is when he sees a woman. He is not nervous at all during the important screening! Just wait for the old man's criticism!"

There is also a pair of eyes that belong to the freelance writer Matsuzawa Shinosuke. Where there is Naoki Nagayama, it is natural to have him. However, because he is a freelance writer, it is difficult to enter the TV programs, and he missed a lot of Naoki Nagayama. interview.

In the corner, there is even a pair of eyes from Fuji TV's Naotaro Nakanishi. Since he was molested by Naoki Naoyama, he was deeply ashamed, and he also focused on Naoki Naoyama, and even brought the camera guys over!

"Naitaro-san, are we just here to watch movies?" The videographer, Tsuji, was puzzled. The end of the year is the time when low-level cameramen like him are busy. "There are a lot of materials to shoot in the TV station now!"

"Tsuji Naoto, trust me! We're going to have big news here today!"

Naotaro Nakanishi has decided to take direct action against Naoki Nagayama during his visit after the movie!

As more and more people gathered, the lights in the studio dimmed, and it was finally time for the movie to play!

Originally, I wanted to directly write about the climax of the preview, but I always felt that something was missing, so this chapter paves the way~
