Tokyo Bubble Life

Chapter 1161 Chapter 1170 How come I, Naoki Nagayama, have become infamous again? !
After Naoki Nagayama finished editing for three days, Masataka Komori, who had been discharged from the hospital, rushed to the Shuyou Building in a hurry.

"Naoki-san, leave the rest to me!"

In the editing room, Masataka Komori held Naoki Nagayama's arm, thanking him and trying to take over the editing desk.

"I'm completely fine now! It won't affect the subsequent editing!"

".I still have a little bit"

"Just leave it to me!" Komori Masataka begged, "Naoki-san, if you keep editing, the whole movie will be like you!"

"What do you call me?"

Naoki Nagayama said dissatisfiedly,
"It's clearly a transition to a better style!"

"Naoki-san, this is different from the previous editing of the plot!"

Komori Masataka held onto Naoki Nagayama's arm and refused to let go.

"It was all a relaxing pace before, but now it's going to turn into a tight action movie!"

"We had planned a gunfight!"

"The gunfight could be a little easier!"

Masataka Komori must not let Naoki Nagayama continue editing today. If it was only a part, it would be fine, but based on Naoki Nagayama's work efficiency, in a few days, he might be able to finish editing the second half of the movie!

The director has a unique editing style to begin with, and if he continues, people might be able to tell that the movie was edited by two different directors!

"Anyway, we can't let the audience feel that this movie was edited by two directors!"

"."

Naoki Nagayama finally stood up. After all, the director of this movie was Masataka Komori, and he couldn't steal his work!
"Then you do your best~"

Naoki Nagayama patted Masataka Komori on the shoulder and glanced at the other people in the editing room. Someone must have told tales!
"Alas, I have already planned the subsequent editing."

After listening to Naoki Nagayama's words, Masataka Komori breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Banyuki Nishimoto with gratitude.

If it weren't for Nishimoto Banyuki calling to visit and mentioning the soaring editing progress, he might still be resting at home~
"Naoki-san, please leave it to me!"

Komori Masataka said,

“I will definitely edit it to the best effect!”

"Um~~~"

After casually agreeing, Naoki Nagayama walked out of the editing room feeling a little lonely.

After so many years and so many movies, he has developed a feeling for the atmosphere of the editing room and feels at ease when he is in it.
The feeling of putting your thoughts into reality can sometimes be addictive.
I didn't expect to be kicked out by the younger generation now~
Alas, the elderly have no human rights anymore!
With this thought in mind, Naoki Nagayama returned to his office, turned on his computer with some depression, and prepared to play an exciting game of Othello. Minesweeper had not yet been written.
However, Naoki Nagayama did not stay idle for too long. After a while, the office door was knocked open.

"Ha, Naoki-san is in the office after all!"

Idou Xiuyi said with a smile,

"I was worried that you'd already gone home!"

"Usually, I go back in the afternoon."

For Naoki Nagayama, when there is no film project, he works in the morning and goes home to rest in the afternoon. Sometimes he also goes to Shuyou Capital in Shinjuku to sit down.

This was strongly requested by Yoshimura Otomo and Nakai Yuta. They said that as the company grows bigger, the backbone should always appear in front of everyone from time to time. This is a kind of motivation for the company atmosphere and the work attitude of employees.
If it weren't for this, Naoki Nagayama might not come for a long time!

"What's wrong?" asked Naoki Nagayama.

"Let's go! Let's go have a drink!" Idou Shuichi said with a smile, "It's time to use Naoki-san's underworld background!"

". Xiuyi-san, let me be clear, my grandfather's Nagayama Group has been disbanded. If you continue to slander me like this, I will sue you for defamation!"

Naoki Nagayama shook his head.

"Besides, what's the matter that involves the underworld?"

"Didn't I say this before? We're going to talk to various agencies about establishing the Tokyo Film Association."

Idou Shuichi leaned against his desk.
"Today I have an appointment with Suho Ikuo from the Burning faction. Isn't he said to have a complicated network of connections in politics and the underworld?!"

"So you're dragging me with you to this dangerous guy?" Naoki Nagayama opened his eyes wide, "What if he gets kidnapped?"

Looking at his friend who was showing off, Ito Shuichi frowned:

"Naoki-san, according to rumors, you are much more dangerous than Suoh Ikuo!"

"what?"

"Such as putting paparazzi in sacks, confronting large-scale police forces, sending gangster bosses to prison, and breaking into the Yamaguchi-gumi headquarters"

Idou Shuichi slowly listed Naoki Naoki's "heroic deeds".
"Although there is no solid evidence, in the eyes of some people, you may be the more dangerous one!"

"what?"

Naoki Nagayama was surprised. When did his reputation become so bad? !
"Akidou Madai! Although I have some connection with the Nagayama Group, I have never participated in it, right?" Nagayama Naoki rubbed his temple, "How could these charges be pinned on me?"

"I'm not wearing a paparazzi sack!"

"You asked a paparazzi to become a monk!" Idou Shuichi reminded, "and now the one kilometer area around Yamazakurain is a paparazzi restricted area!"

Naoki Nagayama was speechless about this:

"Then I didn't confront the police? I have a good relationship with the police officer and even donated money to him before!"

"There were dozens of police cars at the two Harajuku KTVs."

"That was caused by my grandfather!" Naoki Nagayama said subconsciously, and then he was helpless, "But I didn't send anyone to prison, did I?!"

"The day Shinjuku KTV opened, the president of the East Asia Association!"

Idou Shuichi reminded him,
"But he was arrested by the police on the spot! They said in prison that it was because of you!"

"That's Brother Feng." Nagayama Naoki was even more speechless, "Then what's the matter with breaking into the Yamaguchi-gumi headquarters?!"

"Didn't Nagayama Kumahara kill the Iwakai people, and then Nagayama Kaede went to Kobe to rescue them?" Idou Shuichi asked, "Didn't you go there?"

"That's my uncle and his family."

"Their last name is Nagayama! And your name is Nagayama Naoki, you are a relative of theirs!"

When it comes to Nagayama Kumahara, many people don’t know him, but when it comes to you, Nagayama Naoki, everyone knows you!
So if anything happens, it will definitely be your fault!
"."

Naoki Nagayama never thought that his reputation had been damaged.
“None of this has much to do with me.”

"I know!" Idou Shuichi shook his head, "But when we're gossiping, who cares about you? How can facts be as interesting as stories?!"

"."

Holding his head in his hands, Naoki Nagayama was a little upset.

"So my current image in the entertainment industry is similar to 'gangster prince'?"

"Hahaha, of course not! These are just casual remarks made while we were drinking in private," Idou Shuichi laughed. "It just adds a halo to you among those who have connections with the underworld. In the eyes of ordinary people, your image, Naoki Nagayama, is very positive!"

"On the surface, Naoki-san is still a great writer and famous director with a clean record."

".That's good~" Naoki Nagayama felt a little comforted.

Idou Shuichi patted Naoki Nagayama's shoulder.

"So, come with me to meet Suho Ikuo and scare him with your aura!"

"."

In the end, Naoki Nagayama was dragged by Shuichi Ido to attend the drinking party!

Since it was a lunch party, we arranged to have it at a more private Japanese restaurant in Shibuya.

When Naoki Nagayama and Shuichi Idou arrived, Ikuo Suho had not arrived yet, so the two of them went into the private room and waited for a while.

"Have Shuichi-san and Suho Ikuo met?"

Naoki Nagayama had heard of Ikuo Suho's reputation, but had never met him.

"I've met him once or twice, both times at industry gatherings," said Idou Shuichi. "He seems like a very thoughtful person."

"thoughtful?"

"Um"

Naoki Nagayama nodded. Shuyou initially had an intersection with Ikuo Suho, and it seemed that it was during the Wildcats' transfer incident.

But now the Wild Cat Group has passed. The original person in charge seems to be Etsuro Kikuchi, and later he went to the Kitten Club. After the Kitten Club was disbanded, there was no news about them.

Just as the two were discussing how to deal with Suho Ikuo later, the door of the private room was opened.
"Itou-san! Long time no see!"

A middle-aged man who looked very modest came forward enthusiastically. He first greeted Idou Shuichi, and then looked at Naoyama Naoki.
"Mr. Naoki Nagayama, I've heard of your name for a long time! I'm just meeting you today."

"President Suho, nice to meet you, but I've heard of you for a long time!"

"Hahaha~" Suoh Ikuo laughed, and then introduced the person who came with him, "This is Director Masato Oda from Burning Office."

“Nice to meet you.”

After some greeting formalities, the four of them sat on both sides of the square table, and at this time the waiter began to bring up the dishes.

"Nagayama-san is so hard to come by!" Suoh Ikuo said with a smile, "I've been to so many parties and gatherings, but I've never met him once!"

"Haha, I don't like those kinds of situations where everyone is so reserved and arrogant!"

Naoki Nagayama also responded with a smile, and then looked around the room.
"It's not as fun as drinking and chatting in a private room!"

"That's right!"

Suho Ikuo nodded repeatedly. If there was anything, it would not be possible to say it in those occasions.

On the other side, Oda Masato had already picked up his glass:

"What Yongshan-san said makes sense. Let's drink happily. Let's have a drink first!"

"cheers!"

Oda Masato came today to liven up the atmosphere and drink with us~
So with the appetizers, several people raised their glasses to toast each other and had several rounds of drinking.

When the atmosphere became heated, Yitang Xiuyi started talking about the topic of today's meeting:

"Since the Tokyo International Film Festival was held, more and more domestic and foreign tourists have come to Tokyo every October. There are also many well-known figures in the world of film, but we don't have anyone who can represent the Japanese film industry to receive them."

"After communicating with well-known people in the industry, Shuyou proposed to establish a Tokyo Film Association."

"I wonder what President Zhou Fang thinks about this?"

Suho Ikuo listened to Idou Shuichi's words silently, then drank a glass of wine and responded with a smile:
"It's a good thing to establish an association to represent the Japanese film industry. But what can this association do for the film industry?"

Oda Masato also spoke up:
"There are so many associations in the film industry. What's the point? They are just empty names."

"Gangster, even wine can't stop your mouth!"

Suoh Ikuo cursed with a smile, then looked at Naoki Nagayama.
"Yes, Nagayama-san, what is the difference between the Tokyo Film Association and other associations?"

“About that.”

Yitang Xiuyi said,

"We called for the idea of ​​establishing the Tokyo Film Association, and we also communicated with officials from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, and they said the government would provide policy support and even funding to encourage the development of the film industry."

"Isn't there a Film Promotion Association?!"

Oda Masato continued to speak directly.
“Are there any other film support organizations?
Every year they say a bunch of bullshit, and in the end all the support goes to Toho and Toei! It's meaningless!"

"."

This time, Zhou Fang Yuxiong did not scold, but poured himself some wine. It seemed that this was his opinion!
Naoki Nagayama finished the wine in his glass in one gulp and put the glass down:

"No, the support fund this time will be provided by Shuyou Group!"

"We will set up a fund with around 20 billion yuan.
At the same time, we appeal to other big-name film studios and related personnel to donate."

Naoki Nagayama said,

"Combined with the funding from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology and the revenue from the Tokyo International Film Festival, we expect to get 50 billion yen in funding in the end."

"This fund will be used to support Japan's film industry, such as film production by new directors, assistance to actors in need, salary subsidies, etc."

Listening to Naoki Nagayama's narration, Ikuo Suho began to think silently.

Now that we have a real fund, it is equivalent to having real power. We can do more things and have a greater impact!

But what is the purpose of the tree friends doing this?
Pure charity?!
"20."

Ikuo Suho said,

"This is a huge expense, Yongshan-san. Don't you feel bad for spending so much money?!"

"Hahaha, it's all for supporting the film industry!"

Idou Shuichi laughed.

"Nagayama Mulberry"

Suho Ikuo shook his head.

"There are only a few of us here, so let's not use such official language.
What is the purpose of establishing the Tokyo Film Association? Why did you consult with me? "

"Because I hope to get the support of President Suho!"

Naoki Nagayama spun his wine glass, paused for a moment and said,

"President Suho's Burning Agency can influence almost all of Japan's actors and artists. It is a force that cannot be ignored in the Japanese film industry!"

When they said this, both Suho Ikuo and Oda Masato had a smug look on their faces.

These are words that only a handful of people in the entertainment industry can say today!
"As for the purpose of establishing the Tokyo Film Association," Naoki Nagayama continued, "on the one hand, it is to enhance the status of the tree friends, and on the other hand, the tree friends hope to go overseas."

"Go overseas?" To improve one's own status is certain, and Suho Ikuo also wants to improve his own status.

"To enter the markets of other countries, it is very important to have an official status," Naoki Nagayama said. "We cannot be in politics or be officials. So the semi-official status of the president of an industry association is very suitable for discussing some things."

At the beginning, the establishment of the Tokyo Film Association was just an impulse to consolidate and enhance Shuyou's position in the industry.

Later, Naoki Nagayama discovered that if movies like "Jurassic Park" were to be introduced abroad, it would be much better to have an official organization, which might be able to facilitate cooperation between the film industries of the two countries.

This is very beneficial for the future development of tree friends.

"So, the first president, Nagayama-san, wants it?"

"Fuidou Shuichi will be the first president!"

He actually gave the title to someone else? Suoh Ikuo couldn't understand Naoki Nagayama any more.

"Then, President, can our Burning firm also fight for it?!"

Oda Masato asked.

"Of course! As long as the contribution to the Tokyo Film Association is high, then it's fine!" (First, take out 20 billion in real money!)

"."

After choking a bit, Oda lowered his head silently and started eating and drinking, which made the people in the private room relax a little.

Zhou Fang Yuxiong also drank a few glasses of wine before continuing to ask:

"I understand what you are asking, Nagayama-san.
How does this benefit Burning?
What’s in it for me?”

At this time, Suho Ikuo, with a slightly red face, finally had some of the feeling of a hero. It is impossible for a man who could go from a gangster to a person who could influence half of the entertainment industry to be a humble gentleman.

"."

Naoki Nagayama was silent for a moment.
"Let's not talk about making money or anything like that!"

Naoki Nagayama looked into Ikuo Suho's eyes:
"If Minister Sue becomes the president of the Tokyo Film Association, it will allow him to step onto a bigger stage!

Stand with those senior officials and congressmen."

"I will not give up the position of president for the first term, but for the second term, I can promise that Shuyou will fully support Minister Zhou Fang's election!"

As the president of an agency, he may be able to call the shots in the entertainment industry, promoting a certain artist or banning a certain actor.
But can he receive foreign guests on behalf of Neon?
Can he stand together with foreign dignitaries and be interviewed?

Could he be on the invitation list for the Emperor's birthday?
Can he discuss the direction of the film industry with the Prime Minister?
Can he influence Neon's policies?
But the president of the Tokyo Film Association can!

This is a promotion in status and qualifications! From being the president of a company to being a member of the national decision-making group!
"A bigger stage?"

Ikuo Suho tasted the cold sake in his glass, but he felt extremely hot.

"The next president"

In fact, Suho Ikuo relied on a member of the parliament with a mafia background to rise to power. He used to be a gray glove, making money and laundering money for the upper-class dignitaries.
Now that he has become the president of one of the best agencies in the entertainment industry, he has achieved some success. Naturally, he is not satisfied with just being a gray glove and wants more!

The atmosphere in the box was a little quiet for a while, and then I heard Suho Yuxiong pouring wine and raising his glass again:

"Come on, Naoki-san, let's have another drink!
"Then, let's continue talking about the Tokyo Film Association~"
