Chapter 538 536, as Many Money-Making Ideas as You Want!
If there is anything that makes people happier than receiving a salary, it must be receiving a year-end bonus!
Since the morning, the studio of Shuyou Pictures has been extremely lively today. Employees who normally would not gather together have all come to the studio.
Here are three cat-eyed sisters chatting and laughing quietly. Over there, Junko Ito and Yuki Saito are discussing the itinerary. The latest addition, Chiko Aoyama, is currently living in the girls' dormitory, a unique employee dormitory of Shuyu Pictures. However, she is not familiar with everyone for the time being, so she can only talk to her album producer Tetsuya Komuro.
Inada Masami, who has been away on business for a long time, chatted enthusiastically with Komori Masataka and others. Even the makeup artist Mayu Rena, who has been following the idol everywhere, and the prop artist Takehiko Takei who rarely comes to the studio, also gathered together.
The hall was lively and noisy, but the office was very harmonious. Naoki Nagayama, Shuichi Itou and Otomo Yoshimura met with their employees one by one and handed over a thick envelope.
Sometimes, people who give out money actually feel a sense of satisfaction!
"Hi, this belongs to Masataka-kun." Itou Shuichi took out an envelope that was obviously much thicker than before and handed it to Komori Masataka. "Masataka-kun has been very hard this year and worked very hard. Work hard next year!"
As the executive director directly involved in all movies this year, Komori Masataka's bonus can be regarded as the best under Shuyu Pictures.
Masataka Komori, who took the envelope with both hands, could not hide the smile on his face and immediately bowed to express his gratitude:
"Hi! Arigado Xiu Yisang!"
"Well, we have always seen Masaka-kun's performance. The company will not treat every employee who works hard! Moreover, the company is in a period of rapid development. Masaka-kun must work harder and be prepared to take on greater responsibilities!"
Yoshimura Otomo is already a very qualified BOSS, and he can already draw cakes one after another.
Sure enough, this is what young people do! Komori Masataka was immediately excited: "Hey! I will work harder next year!"
Then Yoshimura Otomo looked at Naoki Nagayama and motioned for him, his greatest superior, to say something.
Naoki Nagayama had no choice but to smile and say:
"Ha, Masahiro-kun, don't spend it lavishly after you get your year-end bonus. You are getting married, so hurry up and save money to buy a house! Let me tell you, if you enter now, you will not regret the appreciation of the property value."
"Hey! Naoki-san means that I hope you can care about your family and build a harmonious family."
Yoshimura Otomo quickly interrupted Nagayama Naoki's argument about buying a house, and said to Masataka Komori who was suppressing a smile, "Okay, Masataka-kun, call the next person in!"
After everyone walked out, Fangcun Dayou said helplessly: "Naoki-san, don't promote your views on buying a house to everyone! Some people just like to rent a house, which is also good!"
"Otomo-san, if you don't let me persuade them to buy a house, they might blame you in the future!"
Nagayama Naoki is really kind-hearted and knows how much the real estate value will increase in the next five years!
"Oh, if young people don't listen to the advice of the elderly, they won't have time to regret it in the future!"
Itou Shuichi smiled beside him and said: "Naoki-san, Masataka-kun is older than you! You are the young one."
"."
Employees walked into the office one by one and walked out with smiles on their faces.
The process of handing out year-end bonuses went very smoothly. After getting the envelopes with their names written on them, the three bosses would give a few words of encouragement. Sometimes Naoki Nagayama would sell his theory on buying a house again, and sometimes not.
All in all the atmosphere was harmonious and pleasant.
After Junko Ito, the three Maoyan sisters, and Yuki Saito, the newest addition is Chiko Aoyama. After several months of experience, the childishness on her face has faded a lot, and her whole person looks brighter and more majestic.
"Naoki-san, Otomo-san, Shuichi-san~" Chikoko Aoyama greeted without any surprise. Except for Itou Shuichi, the other two of them were very familiar with each other.
"Hi, Chikoko-chan, this is yours!" Naoki Nagayama handed over the envelope.
"Arigado!" Chiko Aoyama took the envelope. She knew just by the feel of her hand that there was at least 1 million yen in the envelope. She subconsciously exclaimed, "Do I actually have so much?"
Chiko Aoyama actually made her official debut just over two months ago. If she were in a later company, she wouldn't even have passed her probation period. As a newly debuted idol, her monthly salary is only 200,000 yen, so suddenly so much really surprised her.
Realizing that everyone was looking at her, Chikako Aoyama's face rose with red clouds:
"Private Marseille, I really didn't expect there to be so many. I, I've only been working for two months. Did I miscalculate?"
Miscalculated? This statement made the other three people in the office stunned for a moment. The only one who thought the year-end bonus was too small was the one who thought it was too much?
"Haha~" Nagayama Naoki laughed first, and then Yi Tangxiu and Yoshimura Otomo also laughed.
Yoshimura Otomo explained: "Chikoko-chan, this is because your debut song has reached the top ten of the Oricon Chart, and your record sales are also very good, so combined, you have received this level of bonus.
Also, since you are already an employee of the company, you will enjoy the dividends from the company's profits equally, so you can rest assured that there is no miscalculation. "
"Ah, so that's it?" The little girl still seemed a little unconvinced.
Naoki Nagayama joked: "Then Orchiko-chan, give me back the year-end bonus?"
The hand holding the cowhide envelope clenched subconsciously. Chikako Aoyama was a little flustered and reluctant. She replied hesitantly: "Arnold. Since it has been sent to me, then. I'll accept it."
It was so interesting to tease the little girl that the three people in the office couldn't help laughing.
The year-end bonuses in the studio were distributed for almost a morning, so of course they still had to work in the afternoon! It's not a statutory holiday, so do you still want the boss to give the workers a holiday?
Naoki Nagayama went to inspect the editing progress of "Love Letter". Now it's just the final minor adjustments. After the editing is done, the film technology factory can make copies, and then distribute them to various cinemas for screening.
However, Idou Shuichi has to worry about all these. The directing and editing parts have been completed, and the time and energy that Naoki Nagayama needs to invest has been completed.
"Shuichi-san, when you deliver it to the cinema, emphasize to them again that as long as we receive clear news, Tokyo's first snow, the song is played in the record store, or Fuji TV plays the advertisement of "Love Letter", the film will start to be shown!"
"Hey, I will remind the delivery person in particular!" Idou Shu nodded, "And I will also emphasize it when Hayano Riko delivers the posters and other materials."
"Well, there is also Dentsu. They may be a little anxious for a while, but the large-screen advertisements at each subway station must be replaced when the film is shown!"
Nagayama Naoki said again with concern.
"Okay, I will let Riko-chan keep an eye on it!" Idou Shuichi patted Naoyama Naoki on the shoulder, "Naoki-san seems to really value "Love Letter". He didn't care about these things before."
"Because this time it's not just about making money, but also about achieving more goals!"
Nagayama Naoki wants to create a "landmark" that will be mentioned constantly for at least half a century!
"Then I'll leave this to you. I still have to go to the disco to give the year-end bonuses to the employees there at noon." Naoki Naoyama said to Shuichi Idou, "I won't be back in the afternoon~"
"." I was going to say that he wanted to be lazy again, but Shuichi Idou thought about it and it seemed that everything in the studio was done.
It's really the end of the year~
Driving to the disco in Takadanobaba, there were no people queuing here for the time being because it would not officially open until 3 pm.
Outside the disco, the wall covered with graffiti was colorful and absurd under the light of the day, but it was very conspicuous on this disco street.
The DISCO sign surrounded by light strips at the gate looked very subtle without electricity, without the atmosphere of feasting and revelry at night.
Of course, you can't enter from the front door at this time. Naoki Naoyama walked around and opened the back door and walked in.
The disco without music seemed very quiet. The good soundproofing measures made the footsteps disappear. Only the employees who were cleaning up could be heard laughing from time to time.
"Naoki-san, you are here!" Mitsuo Kanazawa, the foreman who was patrolling, spotted Naoki Naoyama at a glance.
"Hi, Mitsuo, is Shigechi-san in the office?" Naoki Naoyama greeted him.
"Hi, the manager has been waiting for you in the office."
Mitsuo Kanazawa led Naoki Naoyama to the office attentively. It was previously notified that they were here to distribute year-end bonuses today, so after seeing Naoki Naoyama, every employee had a smile on their face.
Shigechi Araki, who was looking at documents in the office, stood up and greeted him: "Naoki-san!"
"Well, what are you looking at?" Naoki Naoyama asked after putting his briefcase away.
"It's the activity plan for this year's Christmas." Shigechi Araki said, "We plan to do a special plan for Christmas."
"But. There are only two days left. Isn't it a bit late?" Naoki Naoyama was a little surprised.
"The preparations have already begun. I just confirmed the prizes and the distribution method again." Shigetomo Araki explained quickly.
Nagayama Naoki thought of the Christmas tree and various colorful flags in the disco before, and nodded: "Shigetomo-san is very careful!"
"Of course, of course~"
After a few pleasantries, Nagayama Naoki sorted out the envelopes of the year-end bonus, and started the ceremony of distributing the year-end bonus with Shigetomo Araki.
One by one, the employees entered the office, and then walked out with the cowhide envelopes with a smile, almost the same rhythm as the studio.
Nagayama Naoki didn't come to the disco often, and some employees couldn't even call out his name, but through this year-end bonus distribution, everyone once again confirmed who the big boss of the disco was.
In the end, Nagayama Naoki had distributed all the envelopes he brought, and he joked with Shigetomo Araki:
"Haha, Shigetomo-san didn't get the year-end bonus this year, are you very unwilling?"
". Naoki-san, stop joking~"
Shigetomo Araki would not be unwilling, he got a dividend!
As the reputation of the disco grew, the annual dividends from tickets and drinks were tens of millions. If he had to get a year-end bonus at this time, he would cry!
Accompanied by Shigetomo Araki, Naoki Nagayama took a brief tour of the disco. The combination of wasteland style and cyber style was very novel at the beginning, but after more than a year, it looked a bit ordinary.
Following the tradition of tossing once a year, Naoki Nagayama was silently calculating in his heart.
"Shigetomo, do you think the disco should change its style?"
"Do you want to redecorate it again?" Shigetomo Araki was a little helpless. His boss really knows how to toss!
"Yeah, it's already a bit cliche."
"So, what style does Naoki-san want to change into?" Shigechi Araki did not refute. It was Naoki Nagayama's novel ideas that made the disco at Takadanobaba a legend in Tokyo.
“I haven’t decided yet, but I’ll have to find a designer and wait until next year!”
Naoki Nagayama was not in a hurry. He thought of Takashi Honma, a senior designer. He and his apprentice seemed to be still in Kyoto! By the way, it seems that I haven’t paid attention to the progress of the Kyoto Garden for a long time.
"Hi!"
Araki Shigetomo nodded and continued to quietly accompany Naoki Nagayama on his rounds, explaining the situation of the disco from time to time.
Nagayama Naoki was very satisfied here and didn't have much to say about the daily operations. Just when he was about to leave, something suddenly occurred to him.
"By the way, Mao Zhi-san. Next year, Shuyou Pictures should undergo a structural adjustment. By then, the disco under my name should also be merged into one business segment."
Listening to what Naoki Nagayama said, Shigechi Araki felt a little complicated. This was going to be brought under unified management.
Originally, I was managing the disco. I only had Naoki Nagayama as my boss, and he didn't take care of things very much. In the disco, I was equivalent to a local emperor!
If you want to manage it in a unified way now, you will have a lot of mountains on your head.
"Next year, in addition to discotheques, I also plan to open several more nightclubs. At that time, this area will also be managed by Mao Zhisang."
Hearing this, Araki Shigechi cheered up: "Other discotheques?"
He had long wanted suggestions. The disco was so profitable, how could it not open a branch? !
"No, there are already many discotheques." Naoki Nagayama said, "What we want to do is karaoke."
"Karaoke?" Araki immediately thought of the jukeboxes in bars and some restaurants. "Are we going to open a bar?"
".no."
In this era, karaoke machines are already relatively familiar to everyone, but they are relatively bulky and inconvenient, so apart from bars and restaurants, they have not yet entered thousands of households.
Nagayama Naoki thought of the mass-selling KTV model of the later mature small box, with private space, social attributes, and all the elements of eating, drinking and having fun, all gathered together.
This model is a dimensionality reduction blow to the current karaoke scene!
However, there are still many problems. For example, most of the songs do not have MVs, so there is no way to sing while watching the screen, etc.
It was difficult to explain at this time, so I could only say vaguely:
"In short, it is very different from that kind of karaoke. I will tell you in detail next year.
For now, just think of it as a type of nightclub. There will probably be one or two of them, and they will all be left to you to run. "
"So during this period, if you have suitable subordinates, you can contact them in advance."
Nagayama Naoki has no worries at all about his subordinates joining the group, cliques, etc. The real estate is his own, the operating company is under his name, and the personnel rights will ultimately pass through him. When it really starts, Otomo-san will definitely do the same. Arrange finance and accounting for supervision.
More importantly, I really don’t have any talent reserves in this area!
".Hi! I got it!"
Araki Shigetomo nodded, feeling a little more at ease. From what he heard, he should be getting promoted!
After coming out of the disco, Naoki Nagayama went to the teahouse in Ginza without stopping and handed out the year-end bonuses belonging to Katsuo Yasui and Chinatsu Sakakihara to them. Even the new employee Matsumura Qiuki did not forget it.
Amid the gratitude of the three of them, they sat down in their exclusive booths and began to think about the plan they had talked about with Araki Shigetomo.
After the reorganization and adjustment of Shuyu Pictures, in terms of nightclub operations, it is planned to open two to three nightclubs next year, but not in commercial streets such as Ginza and Shinjuku, but in places that have not yet emerged, such as Akihabara, Ikebukuro, etc.
KTV, like discotheques, is a profit model that is very easy to imitate. The market size is too huge. Self-employed people like Nagayama Naoki will definitely not be able to compete with those consortiums and large companies.
So I just want to open one or two KTVs with brand effect, just like the discotheques in Takadanobaba.
Since the one in Takadanobaba, similar nightclubs have been popping up like mushrooms after a rain. Nowadays, most of the busier commercial streets in Tokyo have discotheques.
That is to say, the attraction of Takadanobaba is too strong, so even the discotheques near Takadanobancho cannot survive. Otherwise, there might already be several competitors near Takadanobocha.
And like nightclubs, KTV is also a key area for gang involvement.
These days, various societies in Tokyo are in chaos. If you are not careful, your personal safety may be threatened, not to mention protection fees.
"But we have a relationship with my grandfather. Using the name of the Yamaguchi-gumi, there is no problem in protecting one or two people."
"How about bringing grandpa in? This is a huge cake."
Naoki Nagayama originally only wanted to make money easily, but since he really got involved in this era, the idea of saving up a family fortune came up unconsciously. Not to mention other things, he could at least be able to survive when the bubble burst. Protect your family and friends.
In Japan, if money reaches a certain level but there is no power behind it, it is no different than meat on the chopping board.
Naoki Nagayama has already felt that the obstacles to making money have increased a lot. Even Kadokawa Pictures, which has always relied on the film industry, has actually shown its intention to increase dividends or fees.
"When I go back home for the New Year, I will have a good chat with my grandfather.
KTV, milk tea shop, express delivery company, takeaway boy.
These ideas that can make money and settle club members, I can have as many as I want!"
