Chapter 213 Chapter 212, Even if Naoki Suddenly Becomes a Manga Artist, It Won't Be a Surprise~

Livehouses in Tokyo are like dance halls, filled with places where young people gather. Shigetomo Araki took Naoki Nagayama into a place that is not yet open.

"Naoki-san, this is where I used to work."

The layout of the livehouse is relatively simple. There is a big stage in the middle of the venue. At first glance, there are very professional music equipment and audio equipment. The roof is full of various lights.

If you add some supporting facilities such as booths and bars next to it, it will be no different from a smaller dance hall, but the livehouse is still more pure, and more people come here to enjoy the music, where the performers and audience The distance is very close, and it is very easy to create an excellent performance effect.

"Have Mochi-san also performed on such a stage?" Naoki Naoyama felt moved when he saw Mochi Araki's nostalgic look.

"Hey, I did come here when I was young, and the decoration was even simpler back then." Motomo Araki smiled a little shyly, "I was very young at that time, and I was very immature when I performed. Now I want to sing It’s almost the same as in KTV, hahaha~”

"Haha, don't say that, everyone has a time when they are young and frivolous, that is youth!" Naoki Naoyama patted Motomo Araki on the shoulder.

This is a normal operation, but there is an indescribable violation when it is done by Naoki Nagayama.

"Yes, lost youth."

After Motomo Araki finished saying this, he suddenly realized something was wrong: "I said, Naoki-san, what kind of old-fashioned tone are you pretending to be! You are only 20 years old!"

"Ah, this." Naoki Naoyama was speechless for a while, in terms of mental age, he was the same as an uncle like Motomo Araki, who was going to be four years old, "Hahaha, just seeing Mozhi-san feeling so emotional, I unconsciously agreed. "

Motomo Araki shook his head, and said to Naoki Nagayama: "Okay, Naoki-san, let's go backstage and have a look."

Walking from the side of the stage to the backstage, there are already 3 young people in the dressing room preparing for it.

"Jia Xiao, Liang Jun, Ren Xiao, come here quickly, this is the music producer Naoki Nagayama." Motomo Araki greeted a few people first, and then introduced to Naoki Naoyama, "Naoki-san, these three are from the Blast band. members, drummer Yoshitaka Nitta, guitarist Yoshisumi Mizutani, vocalist and bassist Hitotaka Morishita."

Jia Xiao, Liang Chun, Ren Xiao. This name is really good. Why do such kind-hearted band members dress up as bad gangsters?

"Hi, it's the first time we meet, please take care of me!" X4, after the standard process of bowing and greetings, Naoki Naoyama finally talked about the purpose of this time,

"Mina-san, Mozhi-san should have already mentioned the reason for coming to see you this time. It's because I have a record and need a rap. I want to find a singer." Naoki Yongshan smiled, "If you can If so, I also want to find some backup force for the firm."

"Hey, we all understand!" Morishita Hitotaka nodded, "We have confidence in rap and performance."

After a few words of encouragement, Naoki Naoyama and Shigetomo Araki walked out of the backstage, waiting to see the band's performance during the performance.

"Naoki-san, how do you feel about this one?" Motomo Araki's tone showed a trace of concern, these were all brought by him before,

"It's just a chat, we still need to look at the performance ability." Naoki Naoyama did not rush to conclusions, of course there is no problem with simple rap, but it is only the first time we have met to sign them.

Besides, Naoki Naoyama hasn't watched a livehouse performance for a long time, and he plans to experience it today.

Junko Ito, who finally had a rest time, returned to the staff dormitory of the GG office to rest,

As one of the few artists in the office, Fangcun Otomo generously rented a two-story apartment in Nakano as a staff dormitory. Junko Ito and the three wild cat sisters lived here.

At this time, the three wild cat sisters who were also unannounced were watching TV in the living room.

"Junko-chan, did you come back so early today?" Katagiri Ayuki, who was eating potato chips, greeted happily after seeing Ito Junko's return, "Do you want some potato chips?"

"I don't want it anymore, I'll get fat~" Ito Junko, who is prone to obesity, is still very strict about diet management. She is born with a relatively large frame, and if she is a little fatter, she will look very strong.

"I'm so envious, Caizhijiang won't gain weight no matter how much she eats."

Ayayuki Katagiri, who used to be in charge of dance, is just the opposite. She has a physique that won't get fat no matter how much she eats.

Mikina Ohno got a cup of tea: "Junko-chan, are there no events today?"

Ito Junko spread out on the sofa, like a salted fish: "I can finally take a rest, I envy the days when I lie at home every day."

As an idol with a top ten single on the chart, Junko Ito can now be said to be at the forefront of the idols of the same period. With a certain reputation, she even has the potential to chase first-class idols in the future.

"Junko-san is the enviable one~" One of Katagiri Aya puts her arms around the youngest girl, "Isn't a life that requires work every day just a sign of rising popularity?"

"Yes, in comparison, we stay in the dormitory every day, and our bodies are almost moldy." Akiyama Feisha stretched her waist, and her graceful figure was unobstructed.

The other three couldn't help taking a sneak peek, and then spit secretly.

Unlike her sexy role, Concubine Akiyama is actually a carefree character in private.

"Aren't the sisters going to take part in the movie again soon?" Junko Ito asked, "It seemed that I was asked to play the daughter before, but then they didn't want it anymore."

"That's because you have a new song to promote~" Mihui Ono knew more about the company's affairs, "It is said that a baby-faced artist is going to be found to perform."

"Eh? Don't you choose one out of several?"

"None of us are suitable." Ayuki Katagiri curled her lips, "You say we are too old, and we are clearly in our early 20s."

"Come on, you're already 25! How can you play a 15-year-old girl." Akiyama Feisha interrupted, "It's the age to get married!"

"You're the one who wants to get married soon!" Ayuki Katagiri crawled over to tickle her itch, the staff dormitory erupted, and the whole room was filled with the laughter of young girls.

After finally calming down, Junko Ito asked, "Arnold, doesn't the office plan for the future lives of the sisters?"

The other three didn't know what to say for a while: "Anyway, they are just going around in various movies, TV dramas, and variety shows made by the company. Since the disbandment of the Wildcats, there has been no special arrangement."

Mihuna Ohno sighed: "Probably like other outdated artists, they will gradually fade out of the entertainment world."

"How can this be? Isn't Naoki-san very talented? He will definitely find a new direction for everyone!" Junko Ito has a kind of confidence in Naoki Naoyama.

"Haha, that's right. Naoki-san was the one who discovered the wild cat group." Akiyama Feisa still remembers the excitement when she was chosen as the sex appeal.

"I've always believed in Naoki-san." Katagiri Ayuki started eating potato chips again, which made her words lack some sincerity.

Otomo Yoshimura of the studio was in contact with the filming location of "The Tale of Hachiko" and other matters when Masato Inada knocked on the door suddenly and entered the office.

"Otomo-san, the cartoonist Hojo Tsukasa who has been asking me to contact me before has already responded."

"Is that so? There is finally a response. Is it so difficult to contact cartoonists?" Otomo Fangcun scratched his head.

"Maybe he is the only one who is more difficult to contact." Inada Masami said, "He only uses letters all the time."

Fangcun Otomo put down the materials and told Masami Inada, "Mr. Yamin, please make an appointment to meet as soon as possible. By the way, have you completed the copyright investigation of "The Three Sisters of Maoyan"?"

"Hi, it's done."

"Naoki-san has been optimistic about this manga since the end of last year, and has been urging me to talk about copyright." Yoshimura Otomo thought for a while, "Yamin-kun, please help me find out how much it will cost if I want to buy TV copyright. cost."

"Otomo-san, this manga has only been serialized not long ago, so I don't know if it will become popular. Is it too soon to directly say that I want to buy the TV adaptation copyright?"

"What do you know, if you wait for a comic to become popular, you may not be able to buy it at that time!" Otomo Fangcun scolded, "There are very few people who have the ability to discover the potential of a work in advance, and those who can make up their minds Even less! There is no doubt that Naoki-san is such a person."

Masami Inada nodded, "Hi, I'll talk right away."

After Masami Inada walked out, Shuichi Itou asked curiously,

"Otomo-san, is Naoki-san planning to remake "The Three Sisters with Cat's Eyes"?"

"It seems that I have this idea, but I'm not sure." Yoshimura Otomo said, "At that time, I asked Naoki-san what to do with the three sisters of the wild cat group, and Naoki-san suddenly mentioned such a comic. "

"At that time, "Maoyan Three Sisters" didn't seem to be serialized yet."

Shuichi Ido was very surprised: "If you say that, did Naoki-san know the information about the manga serialization in advance? How is it possible!"

Yoshimura Otomo was very calm: "Xiuichi-san, maybe Naoki-san also has friends in the circle of manga creators."

Then he said: "To be honest, Naoki-san is a composer and lyricist, a screenwriter, and a writer of children's literature. If one day Naoki-san suddenly becomes a cartoonist, I will not be surprised."

Shuichi Yitang laughed when he heard the words: "Yeah, maybe one day Naoki will come to a manga and say to you, 'Otomo-san, this is a manga I drew, please take a look, can you find a publisher to publish it? one time.'"

"Hahaha, it's really possible!"

Otomo Fangcun remembered the way Naoki Nagayama brought "Natsu no Garden" before,

"By the way, did Naoki-san say that he is writing a novel again?"

"Yes, it seems that I have been writing since the beginning of the new year. The feeling that I saw him before was because I was immersed in novel creation." Yi Tangxiu thought of the appearance of Naoki Nagayama before.

"I really want to know what kind of novel it is."

"yes."

After chatting off-topic for a while, the two returned to business.

"By the way, Xiu Yisang, as I said earlier, I was looking for an actor with a baby face, did you find it?"

"Actors with a baby face, I already have several options, and some of them have connections with idols~"

"Yeah?"

The passionate rhythm and passionate singing made the adrenaline of the audience in the livehouse soar. Except for confirming the seat at the beginning, it is completely useless now. Everyone stands up and twists with the rhythm body.

Naoki Yongshan was crowded among a group of people he didn't know, and he felt as if he had come to a disco again, but this time there were no colorful neon lights and alcohol, and the people on the dance floor were all here for the music.

In fact, the singing and songs of the Blast band are quite average, but as a rock band, passion is more important, and a few people have done a good job in this regard.

On the way back, Araki Shigetomo was a little nervous. The performance was only halfway through, and Naoki Naoyama told him to leave. He thought it was because he was not satisfied with the band.

"Naoki-san, aren't you satisfied with the members of the band?"

Naoki Yongshan shook his head: "It's not that I'm dissatisfied. As an underground band, Blast's performance can already be said to be very good."

"Then, why did you leave halfway?"

That's because I have to go back and write the manuscript!

The task of "Love Letter" was not completed, and Naoki Naoyama couldn't completely relax himself. Just after listening to it for a while, he knew that he could not integrate into the atmosphere of the scene at all, so he had to drag Motomo Araki out.

But you can’t say that about Araki Motomo, you can only say something perfunctory:

"I have listened to what should be heard, but there are other aspects that need to be investigated, and I will consider it further later."

"Hi, I understand." Araki Motomo didn't continue to ask, what can be done has been done, and then it depends on whether his boss has taken a fancy to them.

When I arrived at Takadanobaba, I happened to meet Sakata Naoya and a group of workers who were demolishing the remaining parts such as the wall.

"Naoya-san, how is the dismantling going? How long is it expected to be completed?"

"This, Naoki-san, the demolition work in the early stage is very smooth. According to the construction progress, it can be completed in early June."

"So that's how it is." Naoki Naoyama nodded, and then asked, "Naoya-san, what happened to Takashi-san's design?"

"Ah, the master is still thinking about the final design style recently, and went to the temple on the mountain to find inspiration yesterday."

temple? Is it possible to build that kind of teahouse with a special sense of Zen?

Naoki Yongshan thought about it, if people who drink tea in the teahouse in the future, it seems that they have received the baptism of Buddha, and it seems to be a good feeling.

"Haha, Gui Shisang is really serious."

Looking at the disco that has become a construction site, he patted Naoya Sakata on the shoulder, "Okay, then this period of time has been hard for Naoya Sakata."

"Hey, that's what it should be!"

Hey, wait, why do you feel like patting people on the shoulder now? Is it too much pressure?

Naoki Naoyama changed into a convertible sports car and decided to return to Yamazakura-in without stopping. He had to finish the task at hand first, otherwise he was under so much pressure and couldn't bear it.
