Tokyo Bubble Life

 “The courtyard?” Naoki Nagayama asked a little strangely.

“Hi! I just want to go in advance to see if the final effect is what I want. I can make fine adjustments before the final result.” Ishida Xinhai on the microphone was a little nervous. “By the way, you can also check out the holiday home next to Lake Toya.”

 “Ah yes, there is also a holiday home~”

If Ishida Shinkai didn't remind him, Nagayama Naoki would have forgotten it. He now understands why those wealthy Russians no longer knew where their yachts were~

 This is the trouble of rich people!

 Ishida Shinkai was very angry when he heard it on the other end of the microphone. The design results he had worked so **** were not important at all in Party A’s heart!

　　The words came out in a soft voice unconsciously: "What a disgusting rich man."

 “Nani?”

“Ah, it’s nothing!” Shinkai Ishida immediately replied, “So, does Naoki-san have time recently?”

“I think I have some time recently~” Naoki Nagayama thought about it. After attending the Waseda Sakura Festival tomorrow, there shouldn’t be anything too important. It’s okay to go to Kyoto.

“By the way, Shinkai-san~” Nagayama Naoki suddenly remembered something, “Didn’t I tell your office before that I wanted to commission a longer-term project?”

“Naoki-san, are you talking about that KTV chain project?” Ishida Shinkai has naturally heard of it, and Mr. Honma also said that this year’s year-end award depends on this project!

“Hi, the site selection for the second KTV should be completed soon, so the project can start by then.”

As Nagayama Naoki spoke, he wrote down something in the small notebook he carried with him to find Brother Feng to determine the location of the second KTV.

I didn’t have this itinerary before, but under the guidance of people around me (here specifically the child Akina Nakamori), I recorded important things even without the calendar function on my mobile phone.

This small notebook can also be used for emergency relief when inspiration breaks out~

“Hi, our Honma Design Office is always ready to devote all our efforts to the project!” Ishida Shinkai promised, “No matter when Naoki-san starts, we will immediately come up with a design plan!”

“That’s good, let’s go to Kyoto the day after tomorrow to see the courtyard on Monday morning, and decide on the KTV design plan by the way.” Nagayama Naoki thoughtfully avoided the weekend, but he still wanted to give the migrant workers time to rest!

“Hi! Then we are waiting for your arrival at the office!”

 Naoki Nagayama hung up the phone and began to think silently.

Once Brother Feng’s KTV chain starts, it will expand rapidly and seize the market. Various problems will inevitably arise. It seems that I still have to communicate with Brother Feng tomorrow!

 Ah, by the way, I’m going to watch Tsuruko’s performance tomorrow night~

Also, what about the program Akina is going to record overseas?

 Various thoughts collided in his mind, making Nagayama Naoki's expression look a little heavy.

At this moment, his legs felt warm, and Taro's dog's head lay on his lap, with a grin on his face and innocent eyes looking up, as if he was comforting his master.

 Seeing such a scene, Naoki Nagayama couldn’t help but smile:

“Yingtaro, how did you learn to be a golden retriever? Do you want to be a warm man?”

“I don’t know what you are talking about, but since you want to be a warm man, are you thinking about your little girlfriend at this time?”

Nagayama Naoki slapped Taro's head vigorously, making the white dog's thick tail like a mallet swing around.

 “Woof woof woof (you only think about it!)”

And while one person and one dog were messing around, Nyotaro, who was supposed to be very cold all the time, heard a cat meow outside the Yamazakura courtyard, and began to roll on the verandah outside the door, and made loud noises from time to time. Strange howling sound.

ˆ “.”

 Hongshan Naoki and Yutaro both looked over.

 “Is this... in heat?”

 “Woof!”

 “But Nyaotaro is a male cat!”

 “Woof?”

"The scream is too unpleasant. Mr. Yutaro, do you want to cut off his balls?"

 “Woof?!∑(O_O!)”

April is the lie of cherry blossoms. They clearly promised to leave the best memories of spring, but they began to fall away sadly when they were at their most brilliant.

Pieces of cherry blossom petals fall from the treetops, dance in the sun, swirl in the wind, and finally take a final bow on the ground.

The streets full of cherry blossoms are paved with a layer of cherry blossom petals, as if they go from bud to bloom, just for the moment when they finally fall from the branches. Therefore, it is extremely beautiful.

 Naoki Nagayama opened the convertible and drove towards the KTV in Harajuku, letting the pink and white petals fall in the car~

 I confirmed it when I came here before. In the morning, Brother Feng will go to Harajuku KTV to inspect and confirm the business preparations for today.

 “Naoki-san!” Tetsuhiro Kurita, the waiter at KTV, recognized the shop owner with a keen eye.

“Kurita-kun~” Nagayama Naoki nodded, “Is Brother Kaede here?”

“Hi, Brother Kaede arrived early in the morning and is inspecting the situation in each private room.” Tetsuhiro Kurita immediately reported the whereabouts of Kaede Nagayama.

 “Well, I’ll wait for him in the office~”

“Hey, when Brother Feng comes over, I’ll tell him as soon as possible!”

 “Thank you for your hard work~”

Nagayama Naoki came to the relatively plain center area. The outside also functions as a monitoring room, and the innermost is the office of the store manager or manager. During this period, either Shigechi Araki or Kaede Nagayama worked here. .

Looking at the staff schedule on the table, I saw that there were more than 30 people in the small KTV, which could be said to be too sufficient. However, there were about ten people in the club. When the next KTV opened, I'll go take care of that store.

 Soon~

 “Naoki!” Yongshan Feng walked in with a smile on his face, “You came to KTV so early, did you come to see me?”

“Well, has Brother Feng completed his morning routine inspection?” Naoki Nagayama asked.

"Yeah, actually you don't have to check one by one, just spot checks~" Nagayama Kaede sat down and explained a little, "Now the main thing is to teach Hamazaki Shogo and the guys how to check. They all look like idiots, I’ve been taught it many times but still can’t remember it! How to run the next store in the future!”

“Haha, teach slowly~ If it doesn’t work, you can still recruit people to do it.” Naoki Nagayama comforted, “Anyway, the elders of the club only need to be the top managers.”

"That's what I say, but if you don't know anything, you will be ignored by your subordinates!" Yongshan Feng said very experiencedly, "Just like when I collected protection fees in Qingshui, I took a lot from it, but my father But I never knew.”

　　Halfway through speaking, Yongshan Feng reacted, subconsciously shrinking his head and glancing at the door:

 “Ah Bai, I actually said it!”

Then he looked at Nagayama Naoki very kindly: "Naoki, you won't tell my father, right~"

  “.I’m not that boring, and I’m still making a small report~”

Nagayama Naoki was speechless. Although Brother Feng is very old, his personality is still like that of a child!

But I still remember this matter. When one day Brother Feng disobeys, let him educate him!

 “Hahaha, that’s good, good brother!” Nagayama Kaede smiled and patted his cousin’s shoulder. If he hadn’t practiced, Nagayama Naoki’s shoulder would probably be numb~

“By the way, what did Naoki come to see me for?”

Finally, when it came down to business, Naoki Nagayama talked about the KTV design:

“Brother Feng, what do you think of the KTV location selection? If it is decided, we will go to Honma Design Office the day after tomorrow to choose the decoration style, and then we can start to produce design drawings.”

Yong Shanfeng scratched his chin: "I have indeed looked at a lot of places in the past few days, and some of them are quite tempting. However, I only have 500 million funds now, and I am worried that the money may not be enough. So I am thinking if I can rent it first?"

"If you rent, there are likely to be many problems. In the early stages of development, competitors may also take advantage of you." Nagayama Naoki said, "At least the first few houses must be owned by you. If you don't have enough money, I can help first. Pad some."

"Zhi Shu's money didn't come from the strong wind." Yongshan Feng said with a smile, "I will communicate with my father, it doesn't matter."

“In short, it’s okay for other companies to open it first and then go to the bank for loans. The KTV model is easy to copy. If you expand to other cities later, you can also rent it.”

"Um!"

 Nagayama Naoki also communicated with his cousin about the difficulties that the previous KTVs may have encountered when operating, as well as the troubles that chain companies will encounter when they expand, and took some precautions.

“You can even find local people to participate together. Anyway, we need to build the brand and quickly occupy the market. By the way, Brother Feng, what do you plan to name the KTV chain?” Naoki Nagayama only remembered it at this time. "Ah!" Yongshan Feng was very excited, "I plan to call it Renxia KTV! This represents the loyalty and belief of our Yongshan group!"

ˆ “.”

 The silence at this time was deafening. It lasted for a long time~

 “Brother Feng~”

  “?Nani?”

"Call it 'Melody'! It's a place full of beauty and joy. It also means melody," Naoki Nagayama said. "If you call it Renxia, ​​others will think it's from the club headquarters. It will scare away the guests!"

“.” Yongshan Feng was a little unhappy.

Seeing his cousin like this, Naoki Nagayama didn’t give much advice: “Anyway, before deciding on the name, let’s talk to my grandfather first~”

"oh"

The two of them made an appointment to go to Honma Design Office to discuss the design plan on the morning of next Monday. Naoki Nagayama only remembered when he was about to leave:

“Tonight, Tsuruko will have a folk performance. Brother Feng, do you want to go and see it?”

 “Folk ballad?”

 “Yes, it’s at Waseda University.”

"Oh? Really?" Yongshan Feng became interested, "Then I can't miss it!"

 “Haha, let’s go together tonight!”

Nagayama Naoki smiled and said, Tsuruko, I said I would give you surprises, this is one of them!

  Without disturbing Brother Kaede’s work in Harajuku, Nagayama Naoki came to the studio again before noon.

 “Zhi Shu-san!” “Good morning Zhi Shu-san!”

 Perhaps because they knew about the move of the headquarters, the smiles of the employees became even brighter.

Nagayama Naoki walked to the office, only to find that Yoshimura Otomo was not there, only Itou Shuichi was busy with something.

 “Xiu Yisang~”

“Ah, Naoki-san is here!” Itou Shuichi raised his head and greeted.

 “What are Shuichi-san doing?” Naoki Nagayama looked at the information that Shuichi Itou had read.

“It’s a cooperation agreement with the school.” Itou Shuichi said, “Because we have to borrow the classroom and the playground, we have to make a contract with the school. Also, the filming can only be completed in two days on the weekend.”

"So anxious?" Nagayama Naoki asked strangely. He remembered that "Love Will Stop" had a lot of scenes in school. "Can you finish filming the scenes in school?"

"So I'm making arrangements. But I guess there should be no problem." Shuichi Itou said, "Of course, there are still some issues with extras. I plan to send a communication to the student union of this school and invite some real students to serve as background boards. "

 “Huh? This may be a bit troublesome~”

 “Haha, it’s just a few shots.”

Seeing Shuichi Itou's confidence, Naoki Nagayama felt relieved. After all, Shuichi-san is also an experienced director!

“It looks like the preparations for “Love Is Like the Rain Stops” are almost complete, right?”

“Hi, I have decided to start shooting in early May! Takewaki Muga has already coordinated!” Itou Shuichi said, “Naoki-san, there will be a start-up ceremony then, you must come!”

 “Eh? Me?”

“Yes, I want to take advantage of your blessing!” Shuichi Itou said plausibly, “Naoki-san, your situation must be favored by Bensaitian who masters art and music!”

ˆ “.”

 In a country with eight million gods, it is difficult for others not to be superstitious. The goddess has another big red envelope!

 “Okay, I will go~” Naoki Nagayama nodded.

 “What did Otomo-san do?”

 “I think I went to TV Asahi.” Itou Shuichi said.

 “TV Asahi?”

 Nagayama Naoki recalled that Shuyou seemed to have very little contact with TV Asahi.

At present, Shuyou and Fuji TV have the best relationship. In addition to Naoki Nagayama’s personal relationship, there is also a five-year framework agreement and two currently cooperating variety shows.

There is also a certain connection with TV Tokyo, but TBS has less contact and basically has no relationship with other TV stations.

 “Do we have any connection with TV Asahi?”

“If you don’t have any contact, you have to establish contact!” Itou Shuichi said, “After all, it is one of the five major TV stations. In the past, it was just ordinary programs and announcements.

But this time, Otomo-san seemed to have a relationship with the director of TV Asahi in charge of program production after being introduced by an old friend.

 So this time we are going to talk about long-term cooperation~"

The agency owned by Shuyou currently has quite a few idols.

Although there is still a big gap compared to established agencies such as Watanabe and Yoshimoto Kogyo, the idols are all well-known artists, and a few are first-class idols who already have a good reputation in the industry.

 With such a size, we can already talk about long-term cooperation with TV stations.

“It’s indeed Otomo-san, and there are really a lot of related people involved!”

From the past, Naoki Nagayama knew that Yoshimura Otomo’s network was very strong. After all, he even had friends with Haruki Kadokawa!

"Haha, when Otomo-san was young, he was still very active and very good at making friends. It's a pity that after getting married, he was controlled too strictly~" Itou Shuichi sighed, "And then all kinds of trivial matters in life... In the end, slowly All my hair has fallen out~”

“Oh?” Nagayama Naoki smelled the gossip, “Xiu Yisang, please be careful~”

 It is not complicated to say. When Yoshimura Otomo was young and worked hard in Tokyo, he was very motivated and met many people. However, he met his beloved in his hometown, so he left Tokyo to get married and returned to his hometown.

 Later, he was forced to live apart from his wife due to livelihood issues, and then came to Tokyo to work.

But more than ten years have passed and everything has changed. As I am older and have no qualifications, it is difficult to find a decent job in a society with a lifelong employment system. I can only join an agency and become a talent scout.

Before meeting Naoki Nagayama, the pressure of life had left Otomo Yoshimura with very little hair left~

 “So, what does marriage bring to men?”

Nagayama Naoki sighed~

 “Naoki-san, you are not even married. Don’t pretend to be experienced!”

　　Itang Xiuyi rolled his eyes: "I didn't even say anything!"

“So, what has marriage brought to Xiu Yisang?”

Hearing this, Itou Shuichi thought about it carefully, and finally smiled: "At least give me Jiayi-chan!"

This daughter slave!

 In the factory area of ​​Kita-ku, Tokyo, the headquarters of General Air Conditioning is located here.

 Assistant to the chairman, Yasuyuki Nakano is looking at the report sent by the investment department. He is currently in a critical period of negotiation with Fujitsu. He wants to ensure that all the information about his company is up to date.

"It is suspected that there is hot money acquiring General's stocks?" Yasuyuki Nakano looked at the conclusion in the report, "But the amount is not large, is it normal behavior in the stock market?"

 Before formally cooperating with Fujitsu, this situation should also be paid attention to. He immediately asked the personnel of the investment department for specific information.

“The turnover rate is very high. It seems that a bookmaker is building a position sideways?” Nakano Yasuyuki continued to ask, “Are you sure?”

"Nakano-san, such a position opening is very secretive. It can only be said to be possible. It may also be a normal fluctuation~" said Tamura Yasuyuki, the director of the investment department. "But even if it is a hot money position opening, it is just a routine operation, and it will happen again in the future." There is a dishwashing operation.

 Generally speaking, the amount of hot money will not be very large and it will not have a big impact on our stock price at present. "

If Fujitsu eventually injects capital, of course the stock price will increase significantly. However, the negotiations with Fujitsu are now held in secret. In fact, even Nakano Yasuyuki does not know when the negotiations will be concluded. Naturally, he will not think that anyone has got the news. Want to make profits in the stock market.

 Even so, the stability of the stock price is still very important, especially during the negotiation process.

After thinking about it for a while, Nakano Yasuyuki told the Minister of Investment: "Minister Tamura, please be prepared and don't let changes in stock prices undermine investor confidence."

“Hey, our investment department will be well prepared and will not cause major changes in the stock price.”
