Chapter 505 504, Golden Stockings

"Naoki-san, you ran away again!"

In the editing room of the studio, Shuichi Itou said angrily to Naoki Nagayama.

Naoki Nagayama, while watching the newly edited clip through the screen, responded: "You can't say that. Didn't I tell you? Shuichi-san?"

"You just said you were going to see your friend's child at noon, but you didn't even come in the afternoon!" Itou Shuichi continued to accuse, "After editing for so many days, you escaped more than half of it!"

"Huh? If you ask for leave at noon, don't you mean that you won't come in the afternoon?"

Nagayama Naoki seemed to have not heard the second half of the sentence at all, and still spoke in a nonchalant manner, which was in sharp contrast to the somewhat excited Itou Shuichi.

"How can you ask for leave like this! If you ask for leave in the afternoon, just say you want to ask for leave in the afternoon!" Yi Tangxiu was furious.

"Ah, it turns out it's necessary!" Nagayama Naoki seemed to have realized it at this moment, "Well, Shuichi-san, I'm going to ask for leave this afternoon!"

"Nani?" Itou Shuichi showed an expression of disbelief, "Naoki-san, what did you just say?"

"I'm going to ask for leave this afternoon!"

"."

Before Shuichi Itou could say anything, Naoki Nagayama quickly added the reason: "This afternoon is the last rehearsal of the FNS Gayo Festival!"

"? Didn't you say before that this was the last rehearsal?"

"Really? That's because I accidentally said something wrong before!" Naoki Nagayama said nonchalantly, "This is the last time."

"."

Masataka Komori on the side was sweating coldly, Naoki-san, please stop saying a few words, didn't you see that Shuichi-san was about to hit someone!

"By the way, Shuichi-san." Naoki Nagayama didn't hear what Komori Masataka was saying, and continued to talk to Shuichi Itou, "It's already snowing in Hokkaido. When the snow gets thicker, the filming of "Love Letter" will begin. "

"Huh? Ah!" Itou Shuichi realized, "Is that this week?"

"Probably, but during the filming process, there was a scene in a blizzard, and it was very likely that there would be no snow, so we had to prepare a snow machine and a big fan in advance." Naoki Nagayama told Shuichi Itou .

"Hey, I know, I'll prepare it in advance!"

"Well, just put it in the old bungalow in Otaru. The shooting location is also there."

"Okay~"

Masataka Komori stared in shock for less than a minute. Shuichi Itou changed from angry to calm, and was seriously discussing the preparations for the shooting. Only then did he realize that Shuichi-san was completely manipulated by the direct sauna!

The boss in this editing room should undoubtedly be Naoki-san!

"Naoki-san, are you thirsty?" Masataka Komori handed over the coffee he bought before, "I have the coffee I just bought here, and it's still hot!"

"Uh Arigado~"

Nagayama Naoki didn't know what happened, but it felt good to have someone buy him a drink.

After finishing the editing work in the morning with all his heart, Naoki Nagayama wanted to talk to Yoshimura Otomo about opening an investment company before leaving, but this guy actually went out.

"Otomo-san sent Chikako Aoyama to TV Tokyo." Hoshi Kahana, the front desk and administrator told Naoki Nagayama, "It seems to be the first time, so Otomo-san took her."

"That's it~"

Yoshimura Otomo is Chikako Aoyama's chief agent, and he does need to personally take action from time to time.

"Then let's wait until tomorrow~"

Putting the matter on hold for the time being, Naoki Nagayama drove to Fuji TV, which was already like his own home, and ran to Dusk Meow Meow's preparation team office with ease.

"Otasu-san!" Nagayama Naoki knocked on the door and found that Sugiura Otasu was the only one there. "Aren't Akimoto-san and Nishirumi-san here?"

"Ah, they all went outside to record the third episode of "Twilight Meow Meow"." Otasu Sugiura stood up, "Naoki-san came just in time, let's take a look at the final version of the second episode."

"Have you finished editing the second episode?" Nagayama Naoki asked in surprise, "It's going very fast. We're already going to shoot the third episode!"

"Yes, after the process was established, the shooting speed suddenly increased. There are several screenwriters writing scripts at this moment!" Sugiura Otayoshi pointed to the office next to him, "It's right next to it."

"Hahaha, the program is becoming more and more standardized."

Sugiura Oyasu directly turned on the player and started playing from the beginning of the video tape. The first thing he heard was naturally the most popular song "Learning to Meow".

The weather was over ten degrees Celsius, and looking at the Kitten Club wearing cool clothes outdoors, Naoki Nagayama felt a little pity for these girls:

"It's so cold, why are you wearing a swimsuit?"

Otasu Sugiura was very surprised: "It hasn't snowed yet. Isn't this normal?"

Ah, I am ignorant!

Japanese girls wear miniskirts in winter, and Japanese children also wear shorts in winter. Apart from anything else, their ability to withstand the cold is amazing!

But wearing a swimsuit definitely has other purposes! Naoki Nagayama knows a lot about Yasushi Akimoto's integrity. This guy definitely knows how to catch the audience's attention!

After watching the outdoor game interaction for a while, while dancing again, Otasu Sugiura suddenly said:

"Naoki-san, in fact, during this period, Akimoto-san also composed a very magical song called "セーラー service を take off がさないで" (Don't take off my sailor uniform), which I think is also very unique. "

"Oh? Akimoto-san is indeed a talented guy." Nagayama Naoki knew that this song was the famous song of Kitten Club, so he had no objection at all. "Then you can try it in the next show. If this song is If it works well, just replace it.”

Otasu Sugiura glanced at Nagayama Naoki quietly to make sure that he was not angry, and then he breathed a sigh of relief:

"I thought Naoki-san would be angry!"

"Angry? Why?" Nagayama Naoki looked over.

"My song was replaced or something." Sugiura Otaishi avoided his eyes, "It's obviously Naoki-san's show."

"Hahaha, what's there to be angry about? If other songs are better, of course I'll use that song." Naoki Nagayama patted Otasu Sugiura on the shoulder, "After all, Otaisan and Akimoto-san are part of the show now. The specific person in charge, you are the front line, and you are definitely more sensitive to the audience’s feedback than I am.”

"If Naoki-san said that, I feel relieved." After Sugiura Otai let go of his worries, a smile appeared on his face, "Akimoto-san and I have been worried about this matter for the past few days."

"As long as it's good for the show, I have no objection."

After all, the purchase fee for the program "Twilight Meow Meow" has been paid to Shuyou Pictures, and the follow-up will be the dividends from the operation of the Kitten Club. Naoki Nagayama naturally hopes that this girl group will prosper.

"Hahaha." Otasu Sugiura stopped talking about this topic, "Naoki-san, today is the last rehearsal for the song festival, right?"

"Well, today is already the 7th, and after that, it should be the live broadcast on stage in early December."

"Yes, first the pre-selection, and then the main selection." Sugiura Otayoshi said with a smile, "But isn't it at Nakano Sunshine Plaza? Why are Naoki-san here?"

"It's still early, let's take a look at the progress of "Dusk Meow" first~" In fact, I don't want to stay in the studio anymore to edit the movie~

The two of them chatted about what they would do at the end of the year, where they would go to celebrate the New Year, and where they would travel. But now that the "Twilight Meow Meow" program is in such good shape, Otasu Sugiura probably won't have time to take a proper annual leave this year.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Nagayama Naoki drove to Nakano Sunshine Plaza. Generally speaking, the preliminaries for the FNS Gayo Festival are here, but this time the preliminaries will be at the Nippon Budokan.

After walking in, I found that the performance hall was already bustling, with almost all the participants present.

Following the guide, he came to the backstage and was stuffed into the guests' rest room. Here, Nagayama Naoki saw the show's hosts Lu Mu Shigeru and Yoshimura Mari, as well as some guests who had met once or twice before in rehearsals.

I greeted everyone politely, but after a while I couldn't stay any longer. I was only familiar with the host here, but the two of them had to prepare to host, while the others were strangers.

Under the pretext of going to the bathroom, Naoki Nagayama started wandering around backstage~

"Naoki-san!" A familiar male voice sounded from behind. Why do people nowadays always like to hide behind others?

"Ah, Ozaki-san, you're here!" Naoki Nagayama saw the only male general in his family, and a smile appeared on his face, "Where are you holding a concert recently?"

"This year is already over." Ozaki Yutaka was speechless. After all, he is also the boss of the company. Doesn't he even care about his subordinates' national tour?

"Really? Hahaha~" Naoki Nagayama laughed, "Then all that's left now are various song festivals and announcements, right?"

"Yeah, nothing more until the end of the year."

As a pure singer, Yutaka Ozaki is much better than idols like Akina Nakamori. After he releases the record, at least he doesn't have to appear on various types of programs.

Nagayama Naoki nodded, then raised his eyebrows: "How many awards are you planning to win this year?"

"This still depends on the judges' judgment." Yutaka Ozaki is not yet complete, and is still a bit shy about various operations in the music industry. "But President Nagato of Being Records said he would help me compete in all music festivals. Best Newcomer Award."

"There is definitely no problem with this!" Naoki Nagayama agreed very much, "There is no one more beautiful than you this year!"

"." Naoki-san, which dialect of the country are you speaking? Why can I understand it?

While Naoki Nagayama and Yutaka Ozaki were chatting awkwardly, the rehearsal for the FNS Gayo Festival officially began. When Naoki Nagayama was not on the stage, Naoki Nagayama sat in the audience and watched the artists on the stage, performing his own show to his heart's content.

To be honest, male programs in this era are actually a bit eye-catching, because in addition to singing, male idols can basically sing and dance. And this kind of singing and dancing is okay to watch on TV, but in person

In short, Naoki Nagayama cannot be admired.

However, the performances of female artists are much more eye-catching, at least most of them are decent in appearance.

"Mr. Naoki Nagayama, please prepare to go on stage to award the award."

In a live award ceremony like this, the final award results are not known, so the contestants need to prepare several acceptance speeches, and the popular contestants even have to prepare several.

As for the award-giving guests~

In fact, as long as "They are the most outstanding singers I have ever seen!" "In my opinion, they deserve this award!" "Today's winners make people want to applaud." A few words will suffice. .

But today's award ceremony is just a formality.

Mari Yoshimura said into the microphone on the stage: "Now, I would like to invite Mr. Naoki Nagayama to present the award to today's winner!"

Naoki Nagayama followed the MC from the side of the stage and walked up, followed by another MC carrying a tray with medals.

After standing among the contestants, Ruki Shigeru walked to the side and whispered: "Naoki-san, just put the medal on the winner. During the live broadcast, I will ask, 'Do you have anything to say to the winner this time?'"

This is not the first time that Naoyama Naoki said, "Haha, I think the winner this time deserves the title~"

"Perfect!" Ruki Shigeru continued, "Then bow and leave the stage!"

Naoyama Naoki walked off the stage and was about to return to the stage. He met Nakamori Akina who was preparing to go on stage in the backstage.

"Akina, you are going to go on stage!"

"Ah Naoki-san." Although she knew that Naoyama Naoki was rehearsing at this song festival, the singers and guests were separated. She just saw you, "Yes, there are two more people, I am, are you going to leave?"

"Haha, yes, my job is very simple. I don't know if the award will be given to Akina when the award is actually presented~" Naoyama Naoki said with a smile.

"Eh? Is it just an award ceremony? Shouldn't Naoki-san also receive awards for Best Lyrics, Best Composition, Best Arrangement, etc?"

"."

What a mistake. I didn't think I could win an award! During the last rehearsal, I left after the award ceremony.

"Haha, it might not be me who wins!"

"Naoki-san will definitely win!" Akina Nakamori was very confident in her boyfriend, "Both Ozaki-san's songs are strong contenders!"

"."

It looks like I still need to prepare a speech for the award!

But Naoyama Naoki didn't take it too seriously. At most, he could just thank everyone first.

"What award is Akina going to win this year?"

As a young person, Akina is also very shy: "I heard from Ryoaki-san that it's hard to win the grand prize this year, and the singing and music awards are usually given to enka, so I want to win the Best HIT Award and the Best Audience Award."

"So this is how you wear your stage costume~"

Naoki Nagayama took a step back and looked at Akina's black ballet-like stage costume, with golden stockings on her legs.

"Naoki-san!!!"

Akina shyly hid to the side. It's okay on the stage, but it's not okay to be looked at so closely by her boyfriend!

"Hahaha~ Akina will definitely impress the judges!"

Lady Gaga from the Showa era has already shown her charm!

Amid Naoki Nagayama's laughter, Akina shyly slapped his arm, and then hurriedly ran towards the stage entrance before more people in the backstage looked over.

Naoki Nagayama slowly returned to his seat in the audience
