Tokyo Bubble Life Chapter 278

  Chapter 278 277, tea spent more than one million? !

  Tokyo in November was a bit unnaturally hot, and I was still sweating with only a thin coat. I could go out in a windbreaker a few days ago.

  The oppression of the storm makes the whole sky gloomy, even the wind is not blowing very much, and the landscape flowers and plants seem to show a feeling of depression, just like a drowsy summer afternoon.

  However, the commercial districts in the city are as lively as ever, or the rising temperature has even driven people's desire to consume, and the pedestrians coming and going are more lively than ever.

  In the Sanmai House in Ginza, Naoki Naoyama and Otomo Yoshimura were drinking tea. After drinking a cup of hot tea, a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead, but his whole body was refreshed a lot.

   "Naoki-san, it's really convenient to open this teahouse~"

  Dayou Fangcun looked at the pedestrians on Ginza Street from the window while drinking tea, and felt that others were in a hurry, but he was drinking tea leisurely. For some reason, he felt a sense of independence from the world.

   "Yes, I often come here to drink tea, and I feel that my mood has improved a little~"

  Fangcun Dayou felt great when he heard this: "The state of mind! I really feel that something is different~"

  Naoki Yongshan took another sip: "Yes, I often come here to drink tea, and I find that I am no longer moved by money!"

   "Huh? Why?"

   "Otomo-san, the cup of tea you just drank is worth 50,000 yen!" Naoki Naoyama watched as Otomo Yoshimura drank the tea in the cup and was about to refill his cup, so he said simply.

  Hearing this sentence, Dayou Fangcun shook the teapot in his hand, and the tea almost spilled out.

   "50,000? One cup?"

   Looked at the small teapot in his hand again, it looked like 5 or 6 cups, then "Naoki-san, this pot of tea actually costs 300,000 yen! What kind of tea is this?"

   "It's the top Gyokuro, Otomo-san~"

  Dayou Fangcun filled the teacup carefully, and asked again: "Isn't the price marked on such an expensive tea?"

   "If you ask specifically, the store manager and the tea doctor will tell you the price." Naoki Yongshan took another sip, "But Otomo-san, people who come here to consume generally don't ask about the price."

  Yes, on Ginza Street, there are still such obvious antique teahouses. Ordinary people only need to look at the turquoise cornices and roofs, and they should know that it is a color they cannot afford.

  That's why Naoki Naoyama told Katsuo Yasui to buy only the top-quality tea, and all the others are replaced with tea from his own Qingshui tea garden.

  Otomo Fangcun nodded when he heard this, he is really unique. Picking up the teacup again and taking a sip, the tea seems to be more mellow.

   At the same time, I couldn't help but think this way: "I just took a bite, at least 5,000 yen!"

  The two came here not just to drink tea, but to meet the guests.

  The manga writer of "Cat's Eye" Hojo Tsukasa must want to see who wants to buy the copyright of his manga, that's why we met today.

  Before a cup of tea was finished, Inada Masami led a high-spirited young man over, and quickly went up to the second floor after asking at the front desk.

"Naoki-san, Otomo-san, this is Hojo Tsukasa, the author of "Cat's Eye"." Inada Masami introduced, "Hojo-sensei, this is the director of Shuyou Films - Yoshimura Otomo; and the president - Yongshan Naoki."

   "Meet for the first time." X3

  After a brief greeting, Hojo Tsukasa and Inata Masato sat down,

   "President Yongshan and Director Fangcun, it's rude to ask for a meeting today capriciously!" Tsukasa Hojo apologized first, because the copyright of the manga is actually on "Weekly Shonen Jump", so it's okay for them to not see him.

   "It's okay, I just want to meet the original author of the manga."

  Similar to how he felt in the interview decades later, he also looks like a free and easy prodigal son with short ear-length hair. It seems that some people say that the prototype of the protagonist of "City Hunter" will be himself, which is really possible.

"Haha, I didn't expect that the person who bought the copyright of the TV adaptation of "Cat's Eye" would be such a young president." Tsukasa Hojo laughed heartily, "Can I ask President Yongshan why? Did you just want to buy the copyright? Could it be that President Yongshan is also a fan?"

  At this time, "Cat's Eye" has already gained quite a reputation, but most production companies are still optimistic about the TV animation adaptation rights, and most companies are actually still waiting for TV adaptations.

   "I guess~" Naoki Naoyama replied vaguely. In fact, he didn't read manga very much. He only watched animation in his previous life, and he didn't watch the live-action TV series after that.

   "I don't know Mr. Hojo is usually a groupie? Do you pay attention to idols?"

   I was taken aback by Naoki Naoki's sudden change of subject: "Are you an idol? Let's pay attention occasionally."

   "Last year, there was an idol girl group that rose suddenly and then fell silent—the wild cat group. Does Mr. Hojo know?"

"Ah, Wildcats! Is that the girl group with cat ears as a symbol?!" Hojo Tsukasa remembered, "At that time, I hadn't drawn "Cat's Eyes". Speaking of which, the manga may have absorbed a little bit of the wildcats' sexiness." elements!"

  Otomo Fangcun put down his teacup: "Is there such a fate?"

  Since Hojo heard this, he was a little curious: "Fate?"

   Masato Inata helped explain: "Mr. Hojo, the Wildcats is an idol girl group created by Minister Yoshimura and President Yongshan. Currently, the three artists of the Wildcats are still working in our GG office."

   "Huh?! Is that so?"

  Suji Hojo's interest suddenly increased. It was the first time to sell the copyright, and he just wanted to meet the buyer. He didn't expect to have such a connection with himself.

   "However, Minister Fangcun, why did the Wildcats suddenly disappear? I was still sad for a while."

  Dayou Fangcun sighed: "There are many reasons."

   Seeing the sad expression on Yoshimura Otomo's face again, Naoki Naoyama quickly took over the conversation,

   "Actually, it's a bunch of power struggles in the entertainment industry, but it's all over now. At present, there are still three members of the wild cat group who are still active in various movies and activities~"

   "SO ya." Hojo Tsukasa also wisely stopped asking, "Then why did Shuyou Yinghua buy the TV series adaptation copyright this time?"

   "There is also part of the reason for the wild cat group, but the real idea is that "Cat's Eye" has a bright future! If you shoot such a TV series, you will definitely be able to achieve good results!"

   Naoki Naoyama is very clear about the future fame of this manga, and he is even more optimistic about the future "City Hunter".

   "In the end, it was Mr. Hojo's strength that moved us."

   "Hahaha~President Yongshan has won the award~" Although he has achieved good results in the manga industry, Hojo Tsukasa is still a young man at this time, and he is still a little shy to be praised like this.

After having a common topic, several people began to chat about the adaptation of comics and other aspects. The fragrant Gyokuro tea was changed from one pot to another, and it was like a few old friends killing time with the refreshments. .

   By the end of the show, the tea leaves have been changed 3 times!

   "Naoki-san spent more than one million yuan just like that?" Otomo Fangcun just remembered that a pot of tea costs 300,000 yuan!

Naoki Yongshan also twitched the corners of his mouth, and sighed silently in his heart. His state of mind is still not high enough, and he can still be swayed by mere money: "Yes. Including the pot we drank first, as well as refreshments and service fees, I guess Almost one and a half million!"

  Fangcun Otomo was stunned: "One and a half million! One bedroom is gone! Naoki-san, what did we do with so much money!"

   "Drink tea. Chat"

  Although he has made a lot of money in the past two years, Fangcun Otomo has not yet reached the point where he spends a lot of money. Even if his bank account is just a bunch of numbers, Naoki Naoyama feels a little distressed when he sees the amount he spent today.

   "Why didn't Otomo-san stop me when I was drinking tea just now?"

   "Did you have a good chat at that time?" Otomo Fangcun whispered something in his mouth (I didn't pay the money anyway~), but Naoki Naoyama didn't hear it.

   "In short, fortunately, it is our own store, and we can only charge the cost price."

  Dayou Fangcun's eyes lit up immediately: "Cost price? Then if I come to drink later."

  Yongshan stood up straight to dispel his thoughts: "The cost price is more than one million! It's really expensive on the tea!"

After dispelling Otomo Yoshimura's thoughts, Naoki Naoyama went on to say: "Otomo-san, let's go to Shueisha to sign the contract later, and about the adaptation of "Cat's Eye", please talk to the three members of the wild cat group~ "

  Otomo Fangcun's heart warmed up. He knew that Naoki Nagayama had always known that he had a heart for the downfall of the wild cat group. This adaptation, it is very likely that the wild cat group will re-enter people's eyes, which is the greatest comfort for him.

"Hi!"

   Naoki Naoyama, who spent more than one million yuan to drink tea in the morning, is not in the mood to go to any high-end restaurant for dinner at this time.

  Anyway, I have nothing to do in the afternoon, so I might as well go back to Yamazakurain and cook by myself.

  By the way, let Ying Taro also taste ordinary food. If you eat high-end dog food like this every day, you will probably forget the life of common people's dogs. For children, you still have to let them suffer!

  The casting of "Boys Over Flowers" is being negotiated. Mieko Harada has an appointment tomorrow, and she is also in contact with Johnny's & Associates' youth team, so it's probably not a big problem.

  It was also at this time that Johnny's Mary was listening to the report of the manager Atsuhiro Ozawa in the office.

   "Is it the youth team?" Mary was puzzled, "Isn't it the Shibukaki team, or the Tahara Trio?"

  For the current Johnny's, the latter two teams are the main men's groups, both in terms of fame and resources. Generally speaking, if you are looking for a cooperation, you will find these two men's groups.

   "Hi!" The manager Atsuhiro Ozawa replied, "Because it is the production company that has cooperated with the youth team before, Shuyou Yinghua, so this time we still found the youth team."

   "Shuyou Yinghua? Ah, that's the one in "The Gas Station Robbery Incident"."

  Marie remembered that since the movie was a hit, the youth team has received a lot more notices. Although they are still members of the backup dance troupe in Johnny's, it's just because there are no more resources to allocate.

   "Hey, it should be that the last cooperation effect was better. It seems that Shuyou Yinghua is quite optimistic about the youth team." Atsuhiro Ozawa explained respectfully.

   "Well, I have a headache"

  Marie Kitagawa is a bit entangled. On the one hand, this drama is funded and produced by Fuji TV. It can be said that there is a high probability that it will become popular. It is a very good opportunity.

  On the other hand, the seniority of Johnny's men's group is here, and there are Tahara Trio and Shibukaki in front of them. These two men's groups are also at the right time to develop in multiple ways.

   Besides, Masahiko Kondo and others are also very well-behaved during this time

  "Chun Hong-jun, recommend Tahara Trio or Shibushizi to Shuyou Yinghua to try. The more famous boy group can have more exposure and attract more fans."

"This..." Atsuhiro Ozawa was a little hesitant. Generally speaking, the invitation for a certain artist would not be blocked by the office, unless the schedule is really unavailable, but this time the youth team has no other work at all. "Shuyou Yinghua is specially looking for the youth team."

"I know, but at present, the main promotion of the office is the Tahara Trio and the Shibukaki team!" Marie Kitagawa stared at Atsuhiro Ozawa, her eyes full of oppression, "By the way, Junhong-kun will not even do this Can't you?"

   "Hi, I see."

  Atsuhiro Ozawa sighed after leaving the office. Atsuhiro Ozawa is the agent in charge of the entire Johnny's reserve army.

  The youth team has not officially debuted yet, nor is it equipped with a special agent. If there is a special agent, even Kitagawa Marie will not replace this kind of door-to-door invitation.

   "Entertainment world is such a place~"

  Atsuhiro Ozawa has more sympathy for the youth team. Generally speaking, the production company will definitely choose a more famous boy group.

   It just so happened that Norihiro Higashiyama of the youth team saw Atsuhiro Ozawa: "Atsuhiro-san, what's the matter, did Mary-san agree?"

  The youth team naturally already knew about the invitation, Naoki Naoyama had already greeted them in advance,

   "Ah, Mary-san said that I have to think about it again." Atsuhiro Ozawa could only say vaguely, "Because of salary and other considerations, I will continue to communicate with Director Fangcun of Shuyou Films."

   "Huh? Do you still want to communicate?" Nishikori Kazuki was a little disappointed, thinking he had a good chance.

   And Higashiyama Norizhi saw the perfunctory look on Ozawa Junhong's face, so he stopped Nishikori Kazuki and Uedo Katsuhide from asking: "Arigado, Junhiro-san, please excuse me."

   "Yeah, just wait for the news!"

   After the figure of Atsuhiro Ozawa disappeared, Noriyuki Higashiyama's face became unattractive: "It seems that the opportunity to act has changed."

  Katsuhide Uedao was very puzzled: "Aren't you still communicating?"

"Generally, backup trainees have this kind of opportunity, and the office will not ask for it. Just like when we were filming "The Gas Station Robbery Incident", Naoki-san just raised it, and our office agreed. Yes. This time it may be that our firm wants to give the opportunity to others."

   "How could this be!" Nishikori Kazuki was shocked.

   "Let's go back and ask Naoki-san"

  Dongshan Jizhi was very indignant, but he also knew that the decision of the firm cannot be violated, at least for newcomers like them.

   "I can only look at Naoki-san."

  In the staff dormitory of GG office,

  When there is no announcement, the three members of the wild cat group usually go shopping, watch movies, etc., and probably come back to live in the staff dormitory at night.

  After all, as artists, their salary is higher than that of migrant workers of the same age, especially in Shuyou Filming, which is not short of money. The previous few films they participated in also included big red envelopes.

   Coupled with the existence of the lifetime employment system, even if there are not many jobs, several people can stay in the company with peace of mind.

  Even Mikauna Ohno, who is in charge of the facade, has already considered it. When there are really no job opportunities, the big deal is to get married and retire~

  That evening, when they returned to the dormitory, they saw Dayou Fangcun sitting in the public living room,

   "Otomo-san, why are you here? Ah, did you come to see us?" Akiyama Feisa was a little nervous when she saw it. Isn't it usually Masami Inada who comes to see you? Did you actually let your boss wait in the living room this time?

   Mikauna Ohno also hurriedly asked: "Otomo-san, have you been waiting for a long time?"

   As he spoke, he was about to make tea.

  Otomo Fangcun quickly stopped her when she saw that she was going to make tea. The tea she drank in the morning has not been digested yet.

   "You don't need to make tea, Mihunchan. I came here to tell you something!"

   "Sure enough, are we going to retire?"

   Aya Katagiri sighed for a while. In her opinion, it must be a big deal for the big boss to come to inform directly. In addition, the three of them have no jobs recently, so they can only be forced to retire.

  Otomo Fangcun was very speechless: "What are you thinking! It's a good thing!"

   "Good thing?" X3

"Yes, we have bought the TV adaptation rights of the "Cat's Eye" manga, and are currently looking for someone to write the script, and it is expected to start filming early next year." Fangcun Dayu looked at the three of them, "The heroine If so, it's the three of you."

   "Huh?!" "Boomni" and "Arigado". The three members of the wild cat group were very happy, and Ayuki Katagiri, who was the most active, even started to spin circles with Akiyama Hisa.

  Dayou Fangcun saw that several people could not calm down for a short time, so he could only tell: "You guys have to read the comics carefully during this time, and then make some preparations according to the prototype of the comics."

  "Meihui Nasan, my hair is still a bit short now, I need to prepare for long hair and then make it into big waves; Feischan, I can prepare for the black and straight shape; Aya no-chan needs to be shorter."

  Finally, Otomo Fangcun took a covert look around the figures of the three of them: "There is one last point!"

  "Nani?" The three members of the wild cat group stopped to look at Fangcun Dayu,

It made him a little embarrassed: "Ahem, Arnold, according to the comics, it seems that when shooting, it seems that leather night clothes should be used to show the figures of the three heroines. You three should manage it well during the end of the year. Take a look at your figure. It's a little thinner now"

   After finishing speaking, Otomo Fangcun left quickly. There was no other way, the three sisters in the comics had very good figures!

  After the dormitory was quiet for a while, Concubine Akiyama burst out laughing first,

   "Hahaha, Otomo-san is actually embarrassed?"

   "Haha, that's right!"

   "Obviously she wore a leather jacket when she first debuted!"

  The three people who were born in photo shoot magazines have no pressure to show **** at all.
