Chapter 270 269, Why Should My Own Movies Be Suppressed!
After signing the employment contract, Naoki Nagayama planned to send Katsuo Yasui and Chinatsu Sakakibara away,
By the way, ask the two to notify the Public Employment Security Office of the interview results, and Naoki Naoyama will also offer a service fee, which is 30% of the annuity of the two.
The annuity given to them is 3.6 million yen. Although it is not high, it is still the salary of an ordinary white-collar worker. Although there may not be any performance, if the teahouse can make a profit at the end of the year, 20% of the profit will be given to the two as Year-end awards.
Before leaving, Naoki Naoyama handed over the door key to Katsuo Yasui coolly,
"Yasui-san, if there is no problem, start working tomorrow, and the teahouse will open~"
Although still a little confused, Yasui Katsuo still nodded respectfully in response.
Watching the young boss leave in a convertible sports car, Yasui Katsuo and Sakakibara Chinatsu looked at each other, and then said with some uncertainty: "Ms. Sakakibara, it seems that we will be colleagues in the future."
"It looks like it is"
"Then let's run this cafe together from tomorrow!"
".Hi!"
Although the salary is the same, in Japan's patriarchal society, giving the key to Katsuo Yasui means that he is the stronger party by default. Although Chika Sakakibara is a bit unwilling, she also admits this result.
When Naoki Yongshan was still on the road here, he suddenly remembered,
"I haven't told them about Qingshui Tea Garden yet~" But after thinking about it for a while, I think it's not too late to tell them after Sanmaiju's business is on the right track.
"Male store manager, female general, it always feels like a husband and wife shop~" Thinking that the hired man and woman seemed a bit uncomfortable, Naoki Yongshan had an inexplicable thought in his heart, "The two people will not become happy enemies."
I forgot to ask them about their family situation before. If something happens and destroys the harmony of their family, it will be bad.
"Well, how could it be such a coincidence, I must be worrying too much!"
The autumn day at noon is much warmer than the morning. When it shines on people's faces, it feels like being sunburnt, but it doesn't feel hot. It seems that the sun just greeted you in a hurry, but didn't think about saying a few more words to you talk.
Someone was already wearing a windbreaker on the road, and the long hem that reached to the knees kept shaking with the frequency of walking.
The tall and well-proportioned man is wearing a windbreaker, and he looks sassy and handsome from a distance, as if walking by in the wind.
No wonder the windbreaker has been popular for half a century~
When we came to the studio, Fangcun Dayou was naturally already in the office.
And Masataka Komori, one of the most capable officers, is busy negotiating the release time of other theaters. At this time, he has to go to various places besides Tokyo.
Yes, Naoki Nagayama entrusted all the release of "That Summer, The Tranquil Sea" to this guy, and he called it "training young people". Obviously I am younger than others
Inada Masami has never been in the studio, since he became the behind-the-scenes manager, he is always outside. The original four artists, and now there is one more Saito Yuki, are a bit too busy~
"Dayou-san, I'm coming!"
Naoki Yongshan walked into the office briskly. He just finished one thing, and he was in a very relaxed mood.
"Ah, planting trees~" Fangcun Dayu really had a sad face.
Naoki Yongshan thought he was worried about the previous incident: "What's wrong, Otomo-san, didn't I promise you to meet that guy from Fuji TV? Why do you still look preoccupied?"
"What's there to worry about about that~"
Otomo Fangcun glanced at Naoki Naoyama, meaning that such a trivial matter would not matter even if you don’t go to Lao Tzu (interpretation version of Naoki Naoyama).
"It's about awards"
"Awards? Oscar?" It was brought up a while ago, right?
"Oscar? No, it's not the Oscar, it's the Japanese film blue ribbon award." Yoshimura Otomo went on to say, "To be more precise, it's all Japanese film awards."
Naoki Yongshan was even more curious: "What happened to these film awards, have you changed the rules of the election?"
Otomo Fangcun rubbed his face, as if trying to get his frown away, but he failed, and finally sighed: "According to internal information, the judges this year don't plan to let "The Tale of Hachiko" "was nominated and participated in the selection."
When he first heard the news, Naoki Naoyama was not surprised, but asked elsewhere: "Inside information? How did Otomo-san get the inside information?"
"Naoki-san, there is something wrong with your focus."
"There's no problem. Isn't it just that old film bosses reject newcomers who appear suddenly? It's just a thing that exists in any industry." Naoki Yongshan didn't care much about awards. In his eyes, can he Making money is the big deal.
"I'm just curious about the so-called inside information. I used to say that it was based on XX's internal information. According to insiders, but where did this kind of news that I knew before the selection come from? Don’t the commentators know when to sneak an early party?”
Otomo Fangcun looked at Naoki Nagayama like a monkey in a zoo. Sometimes he felt that this young man knew everything, and sometimes he felt that this guy was like a person who had just entered society.
"Of course I didn't get together with a few high-status bosses to let it out, and then the judges who are related to him will naturally understand. Naoki-san, this is the so-called 'power', it can only be understood but not expressed~"
Oh. So I understand everything I know, and I won’t say much about what I don’t understand, right?
"So Otomo-san is worrying about this?"
"Of course, our movie is so good"
"So the Kadokawa Group didn't make any moves? Didn't the movies all hang up their titles?" Naoki Yongshan was puzzled, Kadokawa was already considered a big group.
"Although Kadokawa and Kadokawa Pictures have strong financial resources, after all, they have only entered the film industry for only 6 years, and they are still inferior to established film production companies such as Toho and Shochiku." Fangcun Otomo said, "Besides, Haruki-san has already transferred all All the resources are devoted to promoting "The Tale of Hachiko" to participate in the Oscar selection."
So that’s why the internal selection in Japan is useless~
"Obviously, the sales volume of our films far exceeds that of other films. Perhaps the judges are going to criticize the artistry and humanistic spirit."
Seeing Otomo Yoshimura's decadent look, Naoki Naoyama realized that such an honor is still very important to other people in the company. Even the unnamed head of the department is like this, and the famous director Shuichi Ido may be even more disappointed.
"Otomo-san, I am lucky to win this kind of award and lose my life." He wanted to comfort him, but he couldn't say anything useful,
I always thought that based on the results, there would be more or less these awards, but now, it seems that I will get nothing!
Naoki Naoyama also felt offended, why should his own movies be suppressed!
With anger in my heart and murderous intentions, if I can't get it, why should others get it?
"Otomo-san!" Naoki Yongshan's tone became much lower.
Otomo Fangcun raised his head in a daze, and also felt the change in Naoki Yongshan's tone: "? Nani?"
"Do you still remember how you dealt with Toei's slander before?"
"Huh? By exposing each other's scandals, hurting the enemy by one thousand and self-defeating eight hundred?"
Otomo Fangcun remembered that at that time, it was because the matter was made a big deal that the head of Toei's sales department couldn't stand it.
"But this time it's a veteran group in the entire film industry! Unlike before, there were opposition forces within Toei."
"Hahaha, Otomo-san, isn't there anyone in the film industry who opposes established groups?"
Naoki Naoyama laughed. There are so many small producers and emerging directors in the film industry who have been suppressed by Toho and Toei for such a long time. How could there be no resentment?
There are also second-rate film production companies, such as the Kadokawa Films and the ambitious cross-border consortium.
"Naoki-san, what are you going to do?" Although Otomo Fangcun didn't quite understand what Naoki said, he was right!
"Otomo-san, let's strike first this time!"
Naoki Nagayama asked Yoshimura Otomo to contact his friendly media and film critics, and began to take the lead in distributing the so-called inside information in the media, that is, "The Tale of Hachiko" will not be nominated for the film awards, and will end up with nothing.
"Isn't this helping them?"
"Of course not, Otomo-san, the more it is banned, the more interest it will attract!" Naoki Naoyama said, "This time, arrange someone to spread out all the reasons why old companies suppress newcomers! "
"Naoki-san, this kind of thing is said in private, and there is no evidence!"
"Are we the police? Are the audience judges? Do you need evidence?" Naoki Yongshan asked like a cannonball, "In the end, if "The Tale of Hachiko" really gets nothing, then the result itself will be evidence!"
Otomo Fangcun scratched his head: "But what if there is really no nomination?"
"Do you mean that the so-called bosses don't care what the audience thinks, or are they suppressing them forcefully?"
"Hi."
"That's the brand they're going to smash a few awards for~"
The so-called awards, in fact, are all business behind them. The brand of awards here is a chicken that keeps laying golden eggs. If someone wants to kill the chicken to get the eggs, he has to consider whether the things he gets out can be compared with the lost ones.
What Naoki Yongshan wants to do is to magnify the loss.
Fangcun Dayou asked again: "What if they use some small prizes to get rid of it?"
"Hahaha, now that we have entered the selection process, we still can't be too ugly in front of the public."
Shuyou Films' "The Tale of Hachiko" is indeed nearly twice as high as other films of the same period. If it is nominated, it will be a bigger embarrassment than this!
In later generations, someone stole the first prize from one of Japan's highest-ranking music selection awards. The fairness of the selection was hit hard, and the broadcasting market share of the next year was directly discounted!
The music awards also failed to recover.
After hearing Naoki Naoki's approach, the friends of Fangcun cheered up and started looking for relevant resources.
But Naoki Naoyama stopped him: "Otomo-san, didn't you say you made an appointment with someone from Fuji TV?"
"Ah, that guy Sugiura Taitai~" Yoshimura Otomo didn't take him seriously at this time, he was in a hurry to go out, "Just at the cafe we often go to, Naoki-san just go and perfuse him~ "
Tsk tsk tsk, are you so open and perfunctory?
Otomo-san, you have changed!
Naoki Yongshan shook his head helplessly, but he still drove to the cafe. After all, he had promised others, and he still had to keep his promise.
When they arrived, they found that someone had already sat in the seat they used to do, and it was a man and a woman, just like a blind date.
"Excuse me, is this Mr. Sugiura Taitai?" Naoki Naoyama felt strange, but he walked over, "I am Naoki Naoyama."
"Ah, Yongshan-san, Jiushu greetings!"
"This is Xirumi."
"Hi, it's our first time meeting, please give me your advice!" Naoki Naoyama greeted normally, but Taitai Sugiura smiled,
"Yongshan-san, this is not the first time we have met!"
During the first season of "Wonderful Stories of the World", Naoki Yongshan came to Fuji TV several times and had contact with people from the first production department several times, but at that time there were a lot of people together. He has already remembered No, this is a bit embarrassing~
Both Sugiura Taitai and Nishi Rumi still remember Naoki Nagayama. After all, such a handsome guy can easily attract the attention of others, not just girls.
"Is that so?" Naoki Naoyama shrugged and smiled, "I must have not made a good introduction at that time, otherwise I will never forget such a beauty."
One sentence made Nishi Rumi smile, she can work in a TV station, she can be regarded as a little beauty, but being praised by a handsome guy like Naoki Nagayama still makes people happy.
"Hahaha, Naoki-san is really sweet."
Seeing that it was about to turn into a scene where Neptune flirts with girls, Sugiura Taitai immediately interrupted: "Naoki-san, thank you for taking the time to come here this time"
"Ah, dumb tape, I'm free anyway~ Otomo-san talked about the predicament of "Wonderful Stories of the World", and I also have a little affection for this show, so I came here~"
The coffee that I often drink came up, Naoki Naoyama said and thanked the waiter.
"Uh," Sugiura Taitai continued, "What does Naoki-san think about the current situation of our program?"
Naoki Yongshan thought about it on the way here, and had some thoughts in his mind.
"Sugiura-san, let me just say it. The dilemma of "Wonderful Tales of the World" is that the level of the first season is high, and the following episodes cannot satisfy the audience, which leads to a decline in the broadcast rate."
"Hey, that's true."
"Since this is the case, then the kingly approach is naturally to improve the production level!"
"But." The concubine can't do it!
"It's not for you to rely solely on your own production, but to invite Toho, Toei, and other production organizations to use their top screenwriters. Isn't this the biggest advantage of the production bureau?"
As one of the biggest exposure outlets in the entertainment industry, all firms and companies must show face.
"Well, we have asked other production companies, and we have also invited stars." Xi Rumi interjected, "But there is still no improvement."
"That's it~" It seems that the starting point I gave them is too good, the audience's threshold is too high at the beginning, but it doesn't matter, "Since the king's way is not good, then let's take a different path~"
"Eh?"
"It's still playing episode by episode, right?"
"Hi!"
"Sugiura-san, consider condensing the three stories into one episode. Since the quality cannot be achieved, it is okay to rely on quantity!"
"Eh?! Is this okay?" Sugiura Taitai was surprised at first, and then thought for a while, "It seems to be possible!"
