Tokyo Bubble Life Chapter 638

In the last week of May, the weather has warmed up, and you can go out just wearing a thin shirt in the morning.

When he opened his eyes, Akina had disappeared. The empty bedroom made Nagayama Naoki even feel like he was being prostituted for free~

At this stage, my girlfriend is still too busy~

After Nagayama Naoki got up in the morning, he first went to the Sumida River Park yesterday, picked up the convertible he had parked all night, and then hurried back to Yamazakurin.

The dog who didn't see his owner all night ran over and pulled Naoki Nagayama's clothes very affectionately.

“Yutaro~” Naoki Nagayama touched Gouzi's head, “Does a person take good care of his home?”

“Woof woof!”

“That's good, then I'll give you extra food today!”

“Woof woof woof!”

“You're so good, but I'll take a break from playing today~ I have something to do!”

“Woof?! (Are you a dog?!)”

Completely ignoring Gouzi's miserable accusation, Nagayama Naoki walked directly to the second floor and got into the study. The idea for "MUSICSTATION" that I discussed with Akina last night should be recorded as soon as possible before the memory fades.

After all, this is an important stepping stone to enter the TV station!

So under the gentle breeze, in the study room on the second floor of Yamazakurin, Naoki Nagayama was writing seriously at his desk. In an era without PPT, a program plan needs to be written completely by hand!

If you want to add pictures, tables and other elements to make the project more attractive, it requires a high level of manual skills.

At the same time, at the Shinjuku headquarters of Fuji TV, Sugiura Oyasu and Nishi Rumi have arrived at the office of the preparation team of "Dusk Meow Meow".

“Otaisan, are you going to show the script of "Century of Love" to Minister Takano today?" Nishi Rumi saw the script on the table.

Sugiura Otasu nodded: "Well, I'll go find the minister after today's regular meeting."

“But the production bureau will definitely not let Shuyou Pictures take the lead in production. It will be difficult to break this status quo.”

Nishimi lamented that TV dramas must be produced by the production bureau, which actually involves the distribution of interests of the TV station, such as who is the director, which agency the actors watch, and how the advertising fees are divided

· There are many similar unspoken rules in TV stations, and they are all consensus among senior executives. In Japan's strict hierarchical society, this consensus is difficult to break.

"You have to fight for it. This TV series is really excellent." Sugiura Oyasu said, "If it is not broadcast on Fuji TV in the end, I always feel that a major opportunity will be missed."

Although Nishi Rumi is not optimistic about it, she also holds the same idea. The script of this TV series is indeed excellent.

At this moment, the fat Qiu Yuanyasu walked in:

“Dataisang, Xirumi-san, what's wrong? You look heavy on your face?”

“Ah, Akimoto-san, it's a script for a TV series about Naoki-san~” Otasu Sugiura didn't hide anything. After working together for more than half a year, he was well aware of Akimoto Yasushi's talent and had a very close relationship with him.

“Naoki-san?” Yasushi Akimoto's attention was immediately attracted when he heard the name, “He wrote the script?”

"Hi, it's called "Century of Love."" Sugiura Otayoshi pointed to the script on the table, "It's right here."

“Oh? Do you mind if I take a look?”

Sugiura Otayoshi didn't say anything, handed him the script, and then told him about Nagayama Naoki's idea of co-producing it with Shuyu Pictures and Fuji TV, and filming it while broadcasting.

Akimoto Yasushi was distracted, reading the script and listening to Sugiura Oitai's words.

After roughly reading the script of "Century of Love", with his screenwriting talent, he immediately grasped the key points of the story.

It is a love story about ordinary people. The male protagonist is not as perfect as the Prince Charming of ordinary love dramas, but has a lot of shortcomings. Although there are a lot of tangled love lines, it reflects the love life of ordinary people today. There are also special scenes in it, The confession on the big screen in the park, the crystal apple that keeps appearing

“Those who like this TV series will like it very much!” Yasushi Akimoto exclaimed, “It will definitely spark a heated discussion!”

Just after reading the script, I had a profound image of the protagonist in my mind, and I was deeply impressed by some of the scenes. Not to mention after it was filmed.

“Yes, so I really hope that Fuji TV can win this drama.” Sugiura Otayoshi said in agreement.

“But if Naoki-san wants to co-produce with a TV station, the production bureau will not agree.” As Akimoto Yasushi who has worked in different TV stations, he understands the internal rules of the TV station very well.

Generally speaking, the production process of Japanese dramas is based on the golden triangle of "producer-director-screenwriter", and the screenwriter occupies a dominant position in the production process, deciding whether the actors will stay or not and the subsequent plot direction. etc.

If you follow the rules of the current TV station, then the producer of the TV series is actually the production bureau, and the director and screenwriter are also decided by the TV station's production bureau. In fact, the production bureau has always had absolute dominance in the production process of TV series, because he can change Director and screenwriter!

Of course, the production bureau is also responsible for the final effect.

Homi Nishi interrupted: "Yes. Why can't we just shoot it and sell it directly to the TV station like "Boys Over Flowers"~"

".Maybe Naoki-san has his own ideas~"

Naoki Nagayama's demand is actually to take the leading power of TV series production in his own hands~Shuyu Pictures decides the director and screenwriter, and is responsible for the final effect of the TV series, while the production bureau only pays based on the results

This kind of special case usually only occurs in well-known TV drama production companies such as Toho and Toei. They have strong capabilities and have inextricable relationships with major TV stations.

Sugiura Otae sighed: "Anyway, let's try for it ~ I hope the minister can agree."

Akimoto Yasuo shook his head when he heard this. He was not optimistic about this kind of operation. Then I carefully read the script of "Love Century" again, and Naoki-san's creative skills seemed to have improved again!

Naoki Nagayama, who had been immersed in sorting out projects all morning at Sansakurain, stood up from behind his desk and stretched. It had been too long since he had worked at his desk, and his body couldn't bear it anymore!

Looking at the program plan that had begun to take shape, he nodded with satisfaction, and then showed it to Akina, and if he and Akina talked more, it should be perfect.

Yantaro, who was lying on the side, also immediately stood up, wagging his tail and looking at his master expectantly:

"Woof woof! Woof woof woof! (Are you done? Can you go play?

Nagayama Naoki touched the big dog's head: "Thank you for your hard work, Yingtaro is accompanying me~ Take a rest, let's go downstairs to tease Mewtaro! Then we can prepare the noon meal!"

“Woof woof!”

As he spoke, he hugged the cat, wanting to stroke it to soothe him from the fatigue of the morning~

“Ding-ding-ding-ding!” Just when we reached the first floor, the phone in the living room suddenly rang~

“Who will call at this time?” Nagayama Naoki answered the phone, “Moses Moses, this is Yamazakurin~”

“Haha, Naoki! You are indeed at home!” A generous laughter came from the phone.

“Brother Feng?” Nagayama Naoki glanced at the number curiously and made sure it was not Yongshan Kaede's landline. “Where are you calling me?”

“Have you discovered it?” Kaede Nagayama's tone was filled with excitement, “Naoki, I'm in the KTV in Roppongi!”

“The decoration here is almost completed. I just connected the phone line in the office, so I'll call you!”

　　It turns out that the KTV in Roppongi has been almost renovated!

Speaking of which, once the karaoke equipment is re-debugged, it will be ready for business!

“That's great!” Nagayama Naoki was also very happy, “Brother Feng, have the karaoke equipment been installed as well?”

“Ah, the equipment has been delivered and the installation should be almost completed.” Yongshan Kaede invited on the phone, “Naoki, if you have nothing to do today, come and have a look. I think we can discuss the opening!”

“Haha, Brother Feng is becoming more and more like a boss!” Nagayama Naoki said with a smile. The second KTV was ready to open, so he naturally had to go there. “Okay, I'll come over in a minute!”

“Well, that's right! We can go to a nearby club for a drink!” Nagashan Kaede said.

"Oh? Club?" Naoki Nagayama smiled, "Will Shinkai-san go too?"

When Ishida Shinkai was mentioned, Nagayama Kaede became a little embarrassed: "Sana Shinkai, let's go to the izakaya! Naoki, come over quickly!"

Sigh. After hearing Nagayama Kaede's attitude, Nagayama Naoki knew that if the two of them could succeed, there would be one more tracheitis patient in the future!

After hanging up the phone, Nagayama Naoki looked at Yutaro beside his legs:

“It seems that today's feast will be delayed, Taro Ying”

“Woof?”

After a while, looking at the back of his master as he went out, Tailang was shocked that he even deceived the dog! It's actually not too far from Chiyoda to Roppongi. It only takes a turn around the Imperial Palace, which takes about ten minutes.

When Naoki Nagayama arrived at the KTV in Roppongi, he found that the fence had been removed and a sign made of colored lights was hung on the main entrance with the name "Melody KTV" on it.

Only the two transparent windows closest to the main entrance of the original bookstore are retained. Together with the glass main entrance, through them you can see the luxurious layout of the lobby, the spacious service desk, the waiting area, and the two curved stairs extending upward to the second floor. On the first floor, the black marble striped floor, coupled with gorgeous crystal lamps and gilt decorations, gives off a luxurious feel at first glance.

In Roppongi, this is the only way to attract rich customers~

Naoki Nagayama walked in and saw his cousin, who was serving as the foreman at the service desk.

“Brother Feng!”

“Naoki! You're here!”

Yong Shanfeng smiled and walked out of the service desk with a strong body that could not be blocked by a loose suit. He didn't look like a boss, but like a big brother watching the scene.

“The decoration effect here is very good!”

Naoki Nagayama looked at the decoration of the KTV and couldn't help but admire it. The renovation work here was completely handled by Brother Feng and Ishida Shinkai, and he basically didn't give much advice.

“Yes, this is based on the styles of other high-end clubs in Tokyo.” Kaede Nagayama was very proud, “During the design, Shinkai-san and I went to many high-end clubs for research.”

“Are you with Shinkai-san? Have a good time, right?” Naoki Nagayama joked, “How far are you now?”

"Exin Haisang really went to observe the design." Yongshan Feng scratched his cheek, feeling a little disappointed, "We didn't even sing or drink after we entered. We were all disliked by the club's mom~"

“Hahaha~”

It seems that Shinkai Ishida is a very attentive architect! However, a bad boy like Kaede Nagayama, who doesn't study much, actually falls in love with a science girl from Kochi. It's really like one thing is worth another.

After teasing his cousin for a while, Naoki Nagayama wandered around the KTV with him, checking for deficiencies and trying out the equipment.

There are already a lot of staff in the KTV, many of whom are old people from the Shizuoka Yamaguchi-gumi group, but Hamasaki Shogo did not see them.

“Brother Feng, why didn't you see Hamazaki-san?”

“Ah, Hamasaki and the other brothers are resting in the sumo hall for the time being.” Nagayama Kaede said, “After all, after what I did, I have to avoid the limelight.”

After the incident that day that created the Ishii Kai, the name "Five Tigers of the Yamaguchi-gumi" was not only circulated within the Yakuza, but was also registered at the police station. So it's better to keep a low profile during this period, just to recuperate.

“The follow-up should be nothing, right?”

"The Ishii Club has been disbanded. Besides, the police department has cracked the underground casino case and doesn't want to cause more trouble, so there is nothing official." Nagayama Kaede said, "As for the Yakuza, the Tokyo Yamaguchi Group Misaka Takahiro, the head of the East Asia Society's China Section, also gave the Sumiyoshi Society a message. It was the Ishii Society who took action first, so it is natural for them to be retaliated against."

Nagayama Kaede sneered: "More than twenty people were broken up by five people at the headquarters. Sumiyoshi Kai didn't have the shame to say anything."

“That's good~” Naoki Nagayama nodded.

As for Naoshi Fujisawa, he probably doesn't dare to continue the KTV idea~

“Brother Feng, when do you want to open?”

After Naoki Nagayama and Kaede Nagayama took a tour together, they felt that Melody KTV has met the conditions for opening. Once all the drinks and drinks are in place, it can be opened.

“Let's find some friends to support us tomorrow and have a trial opening.” Yongshan Feng already has experience in KTV operations. “If there are no problems, we can officially open it on Saturday!”

Nagayama Naoki nodded and said nothing more. This KTV will be run by Brother Feng from now on, so just follow his orders in everything.

“By the way, is grandpa coming?”

"No. Grandpa is so old. It's not good to run around all the time." Nagayama Kaede looked at Roppongi outside the glass door, his eyes filled with ambition, "Besides, this is just an ordinary KTV. , we will have more in the future.”

“Haha, I hope there won't be any police or Yakuza coming to cause trouble this time~”

In the chatting chat, Nagayama Naoki and Nagayama Kaede talked about the specific methods of holding the opening ceremony, including the people to be invited and the method of publicity, etc.

Seeing that it was already afternoon, the two of them went to a high-end club in Roppongi to drink together. Since Ishida Shinkai was not there anyway, why not go drinking somewhere~

At night, Naoki Nagayama was watching popular music programs in the living room, comparing them with the plan in his mind.

From time to time, some ideas will pop up in his mind and he will record them in the notebook at hand.

“Dingling bell~”

The phone next to the sofa suddenly rang.

“Moses Moses, this is Yamazakurin~”

“Moses Moses, this is Oyasu Sugiura from Fuji TV, Naoki-san, is that you?” A very rare voice came from the microphone, it was Oyasu Sugiura.

"Hi, it's me." Nagayama Naoki was surprised. Sugiura Otasu seemed to have only called Yamazakurain once, "Why did Otaisan call?"

"Naoki-san" Sugiura Oitai's tone contained some pauses, as if he was organizing his words, "I'm calling you tonight because I want to tell you something."

"Um?"

Sugiura Oyasu on the microphone praised: "I showed the script of Naoki-san's "Love Century" to Minister Takano. Minister Takano thought the script was very good and thought that Naoki-san is indeed a gold medal screenwriter."

Nagayama Naoki smiled: "This kind of story usually ends with a but."

“.Haha” Sugiura Oitai smiled a little awkwardly, “Naoki-san really knows a lot about stories.”

"Minister Takano believes that if such a TV series is led by our Fuji TV production bureau, there will be no problem at all." Sugiura Oyasu explained, "Naoki-san, if it is a finished TV series, Fuji TV can produce a very good one." If the purchase price is entrusted to Shuyou to make it, there will definitely be a remuneration that satisfies Naoki-san."

“But you can't accept the simultaneous filming and broadcasting led by Shuyou Pictures, right~”

“Private Marseille, the minister is very insistent on this.” Sugiura Otai sighed.

Nagayama Naoki has already expected this, so he is not particularly surprised now: "Da Taisang, it seems that there is no way to do it~ There is no way to cooperate this time~"

"Naoki-san, can't you really make a concession? I promise, the production bureau will not interfere in the production process!" Sugiura Oitai still wanted to fight for it.

“We still want to control Da Taisang by ourselves”

Now that they have reached this point, there is only a sigh left between the two of them.

After hanging up the phone, Naoki Nagayama fell into deep thought, wondering if he should give in and let Fuji TV shoot "Century of Love"?

It's okay to make money anyway?

But then I thought about it, why? I don't live my whole life just to continue looking at Party A's face!

It's not like we're short of money!

According to Maslow's needs theory, this is the fourth level of respect needs. After gaining freedom from wealth, Naoki Nagayama pursues equal cooperation with large companies like Fuji TV and gets the respect he deserves!
