Chapter 869 878, Want to Grab the Hosting Rights with Empty Words? ?

A foreign producer with a big beard that shows off his artistic talent is not something to behold, and it is June again and the weather is very hot. Even the smell of alcohol and strong perfume in the club can't stop the smell of him.

After meeting Naoki Nagayama made some official remarks, and then quickly left this guy in the care of the girls at the club. Anyway, when dealing with these people, money will do the talking~

Sure enough, they make money by serving customers. While laughing and drinking with this guy, the business smiling faces of the ladies didn’t change much.

As evening approached, Naoki Nagayama was taking a taxi back when he heard the latest news about Seiko Matsuda's marriage coming from the radio.

"The wedding of Matsuda Seiko and Kanda Masaki is on June 24th. Isn't it just a few days before we move?"

Naoki Nagayama murmured to himself, but the driver spoke to him:

"Miss Shengzi was indeed emotionally hurt, so she just found someone to marry. Unfortunately, that person was not me."

"." Are taxi drivers in every country so cheerful?

Perhaps because he drank a little wine, Nagayama Naoki now has the urge to speak:

"How do you know that Seiko Matsuda was hurt by love? Can't it be true love?"

The driver said while driving:

"Hao and Guangmei have been dating for four years. That is true love! We were one step closer to getting married, but we broke up in the end. Of course, we were emotionally hurt!"

Nagayama Naoki insisted: "Isn't it okay to fall in love at first sight with Kanda Masaki?"

"Love at first sight?" the driver said in a disdainful tone, "It's always love at first sight. Love at first sight means coveting someone else's body at the first sight. Is that true love? That's despicable!"

"." Naoki Nagayama felt that he had met a great driver, "Master driver, are you saying that Seiko Matsuda covets Kanda Masaki's body?"

"Men lust after women, and women lust after men! Isn't that the only thing between men and women?"

Hearing the driver's sober words, Naoki Nagayama stood in awe:

"Master driver, it seems you have been through a lot!"

"Hahaha, where is it? I call it 'Roppongi Custom Shop Compass'!" The driver waved his hand and handed over a business card. "If you want to find a place, handsome guy, just give me a call next time!"

".Thank you"

Naoki Nagayama finally reached out and took the business card. It was not for a custom shop or anything, he just wanted it to be more convenient when taking a taxi~

We hadn't reached the evening rush hour yet, so we arrived at the 80 Building after more than ten minutes of riding. Nagayama Naoki also got off the bus.

"Naoki-san, you're back!"

Security guard Kazushi Matsuzaki greeted Naoki Nagayama who just walked in.

"Hey, Matsuzaki-san, are you on duty so early?"

"Well, today is the night shift," Kazushi Matsuzaki explained, and then took out two letters from the box in the duty room, "By the way, Naoki-san, here are the letters from you and Miss Nakamori."

"Ah, Arigado~"

After receiving the letter and exchanging a few brief greetings, Naoki Nagayama walked towards the elevator.

"It's actually from Sunny's office? How do they know our address?"

Nagayama Naoki was a little surprised, but he soon felt relieved. His current fame, address, etc. are already semi-open secrets to some people.

After opening the room and appeasing the dog who came over happily, Nagayama Naoki opened his envelope.

A platinum-gold invitation slid out. It was a wedding invitation.

"In that case, Akina's letter is also an invitation."

Nagayama Naoki put Akina's letter aside, then sat on the sofa and read it.

The invitation clearly stated the wedding date and venue of Matsuda Seiko and Kanda Masaki, and also included a receipt. According to Neon's custom, Nagayama Naoki needed to confirm whether he would attend and then send it back.

"Do you want to participate?"

Nagayama Naoki scratched the corners of his eyes. It seemed that he didn't have too many interactions with Matsuda Seiko. This was purely a superficial relationship in the entertainment industry and he could avoid it for any reason.

However, my first pot of gold did come from the song I wrote for Matsuda Seiko, and I once admitted that I was her fan.

"Forget it, let's ask Akina again when she comes back. If she wants to go, let's go together~"

In fact, Nakamori Akina and Matsuda Seiko are not very close, they just have an ordinary relationship where they meet and greet each other.

Although there is a problem of giving face in the entertainment industry, in fact, generally speaking, artists don’t have to go as long as they make up their own itinerary.

Looking at the dog wagging its tail at the side, Naoki Nagayama put down the invitation:

"Let's go, Yingtaro, go for a walk! Others are getting married, so I'll help you find a girlfriend!"

After taking a look at the time, people in the office became a little anxious~

Normally by this time, Director Isao Morikawa of Kadokawa Pictures would have been getting ready to get off work.

But today

Isao Morikawa peeked into the president's office next to him. Someone had been in there for a long time and was communicating with Haruki Kadokawa. Haruki Kadokawa didn't get off work, so of course he couldn't get off work either.

"Chun Shusang, please think about it again."

Toho’s public relations director Kenshi Morimoto is persuading Haruki Kadokawa,

"Having Toho join the organizing committee will definitely be very beneficial to the advancement of the Tokyo Film Festival! If Kadokawa is willing to support Toho as the organizer, it will bring the Tokyo Film Festival's influence to a higher level."

Kadokawa Haruki said with a smile:

"I totally agree with Toho joining in. After all, the Tokyo Film Festival is a grand event for the entire neon film industry, but it's not okay to be the organizer!"

"Why not!" Kenshi Morimoto asked eagerly, "As Neon's oldest film studio, we at Toho have an outstanding reputation and are definitely qualified to support it! And we can provide a sum of funds as a Tokyo Film Festival’s advance reserves”

"Haha, Mr. Morimoto, Kadokawa and Shuyu are not short of funds and fame," Kadokawa Haruki said directly, "Toho wants to directly intervene in the hosting rights, but this is not possible!"

"Haruki San Kadokawa and Tree Friends are not the same family after all. Do you really want to see Tree Friends living on top of Kadokawa?"

"Haha, why aren't they the same family? Kadokawa is Shuyu's second largest shareholder!"

Kadokawa Haruki laughed again, and then said seriously,

"Mr. Morimoto, it was actually a mistake for you to come to me about this matter. This plan was brought up by Naoki-san of Shuyou, and he was also the leader. As for the organizer, Naoki-san has the final say!"

"That's not necessarily true!" Kenshi Morimoto showed a mysterious smile on his face, "Haruki-san, you also know that this Tokyo Film Festival cannot be held by the two of you! The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, and the Film Industry Association will all want a share of the pie. of!"

"Oh? You want to join forces to seize power?" Kadokawa Haruki was surprised.

"I don't mean that. But for such a big event, it's normal for everyone to think that Shuyou, a company that has only been established for a few years, may not be able to handle it!"

"Then it's normal for companies with experience and qualifications to help."

Kadokawa Haruki listened to Morimoto Kenshi's words with an inexplicable expression on his face:

"So, choose Dongbao to take the lead?"

"Yes, Toho is deeply trusted by its superiors! It also has the ability and confidence to successfully host the Tokyo International Film Festival!"

"What about Naoki-san?"

Kenshi Morimoto smiled:

"Naoki Nagayama is an advocate of the Tokyo Film Festival, that's for sure! Director Nagayama will give a speech when the time comes."

"."

Listening to the words of the person in front of him, Kadokawa Haruki felt a little helpless. Do you want to steal Nagayama Naoki's Tokyo Film Festival like this? Isn't that too childish?

"Mr. Morimoto, do you think Naoki-san is so easy to deal with?"

Kenshi Morimoto shook his head:

"Naoki Nagayama is really difficult to deal with, but we are very confident this time!"

"Toho has contacted Toei, Nikkatsu, and Shochiku," Kenshi Morimoto said. "We have also communicated with the directors of the Image Promotion Association. We will support Toho in the production committee!"

"Really?" Kadokawa Haruki opened his eyes wide, seemingly very surprised.

"Of course it's true! Haruki-san, Kadokawa, please join in!"

".Then let Kadokawa think about it again."

After Takeshi Morimoto left, Isao Morikawa knocked on the door and entered the office:

"Chun Shusang, was it just now?"

"Toho's" Kadokawa Haruki laughed, "These public relations people really can't believe it! Previously, people from Toei also said that they had contacted other parties and wanted to host the Tokyo Film Festival. Today Toho's People say the same thing."

"."

"Maybe the Neon Image International Promotion Association will come forward next and ask for the right to host!"

Morikawa Isao echoed and smiled:

"Then us"

"We don't care about them! Are you just talking nonsense and trying to snatch the right to host? How is that possible!" Haruki Kadokawa shook his head, "Just wait. After a while, when the preparatory committee is formed, it will be time to take action."

"I see."

After Naoki Nagayama and Gouzi came back from a circuit of the beach, when they arrived near the 80 Building again, the sun was already setting.

As I was walking towards the building, I suddenly saw a familiar figure pushing a stroller forward.

"Momoe-san?!"

Naoki Nagayama took two steps faster and greeted her,

"What a coincidence? You just came back from taking Yutaro for a walk?"

Yamaguchi Momoe turned around and saw Naoki Nagayama and the dog next to him with his tongue hanging out, and was a little surprised:

"Ah, Naoki-san, you just came back from taking Taro Taro for a walk? Shouldn't you usually be a little later?"

"I came back early today, so I took Yutaro for a walk in advance." Nagayama Naoki looked at Yutaro in the stroller and smiled, "Yutarou looks very energetic!"

"Yes, it seems that paparazzi are no longer allowed around here recently, so you can often take him out to breathe fresh air~" Yamaguchi Momoe did not dare to take the child out because she might encounter paparazzi.

However, it seems that there is a big brother of the Yakuza living nearby recently, and he gave a lesson to the paparazzi who were always taking secret photos, so that they did not dare to come. This made Yamaguchi Momoe relax a lot~

"I really want to thank that big brother of the Supreme Dao!"

"Haha, I really want to thank you~" The Jidao boss is right in front of you!

The two people walked towards the building while chatting, and naturally they couldn't help but talk about what just happened today.

"Momoe-san, will you and Miura-san attend Matsuda Seiko's wedding banquet?" Nagayama Naoki asked, "I have received the invitation, so Momoe-san should be too, right?"

"We also received it, Yuka and he should go." Yamaguchi Momoe paused, "I probably won't go. Yutaro can't live without me!"

This is an excuse, but Yamaguchi Momoe has now retired and is considered a pure amateur, so it doesn't matter if she doesn't go.

Nagayama Naoki did not reveal it, but just sighed:

"The wedding of the top idols should be grand! I wonder how it compares to Momoe-san's wedding."

Momoe Yamaguchi laughed softly:

"It will definitely be grander. There will definitely be many famous people in the entertainment industry attending."

Then she sighed: "This kind of wedding banquet organized by the agency is like this."

"?" Naoki Naoyama was a little surprised, "Momoe-san doesn't seem to agree?"

Momoe Yamaguchi paused, looked at Naoki Naoyama and said:

"If Naoki-san wants to get married in the future, it's best not to be like me and Tomokazu.

Our wedding looks very luxurious, but it's actually sponsored by a brand. Even the cake is interviewed at the wedding and reported by the media. These are all to make money. It's more of a commercial event than a wedding."

Naoki Naoyama listened to Momoe Yamaguchi's narration and it was exactly the same as his previous guess!

It's all business. The artists are going to retire. How could the agency hold a luxurious wedding for you for nothing! It's just relying on your fame to make another fortune in the end!

"Morae-san has worked so hard~" Naoki Nagayama sighed.

"There's no way, this is the price of a top idol getting married and retiring."

Momoe Yamaguchi smiled. Which artist before her could retire at the peak of his career?

You can't just say you want to retire. What about the penalty for breach of contract? The agency depends on you for a living. Can they just let you go?

At the beginning, I had a long conversation with the agency and signed a lot of unequal treaties, including subsequent records, photos, and copyright sharing.

Walking and walking, I arrived home. Before parting, Naoki Nagayama said:

"Thank you for your reminder, Momoe-san! I'll keep it in mind!"

"That's good~"

Back to the top floor again, after opening the door, Yingtaro rubbed his paws and ran in, and then heard the voice of Akina Nakamori coming from the room.

"I'm back~"

After Naoki Nagayama called out, he saw Akina holding Meowtaro and walking out.

"Naoki-san, you came back very early today~"

"Well, I came back after meeting someone in the afternoon. It was early so I took Nekotaro out directly~" Naoki Nagayama said with a smile, and then saw the open envelope on the coffee table, "Akina saw the invitation~"

"Well, Seiko-san's wedding banquet was so soon"

Naoki Nagayama walked to Akina and hugged Nekotaro and stroked him:

"Then, Akina, are you going?"

"Hmm" Akina Nakamori took the invitation and looked at it, "I should go. After all, it's Seiko-san"

"Are you familiar with each other?" Naoki Nagayama asked curiously.

"How should I put it? We are just ordinary friends. But since the invitation has been sent, it would be bad not to go."

In fact, Seiko Matsuda regards Akina as her rival, and Akina regards Seiko Matsuda as her senior. Of course, they are friendly in front of the camera.

The invitation has been sent this time. If I don't go, it will not sound good in the entertainment industry.

Maybe there will be comments like "Akina Nakamori is narrow-minded" and "Idols have one face on stage and another face off stage."

"Where's Naoki-san?" Akina asked Naoyama Naoki.

"Since Akina is going, I'll go too," Naoyama Naoki said with a smile, "Please write on the receipt that we sit together!"

"Okay~"

Akina Nakamori also smiled brightly.
