Tokyo Bubble Life

Chapter 936 Chapter 945, First is the red carpet walk!!!
The autumn is bright and the sky is bright~
Days like this are perfect for hosting large-scale events, sports meets, film festivals, and the like!
Next to Yoyogi Park in Tokyo, outside the NHK Hall, thousands of people gathered, and both sides of the red carpet were crowded with people, all of whom came to watch the Tokyo International Film Festival.

If it weren't for the iron railings and security personnel maintaining order, even the red carpet might have been crowded.

Cheers, music, salutes, explanations, shoving, scolding, and voices coming from nowhere. The noisy sound filled the entire venue, and it was even as noisy as a larger market.
"Hurry up! Junsui-chan!"

Relying on her slender figure, Tsuruko squeezed forward in the crowd, and from time to time she turned back to pull her best friend Ishii Junsui,

"If we don't hurry up, we'll miss Brando!"

"Tsuruko-chan, you already have a ticket for the venue, why did you have to come to the red carpet?" Ishii Junsui finally squeezed next to Tsuruko and complained quietly, "And the ticket was given to you by Naoki Ni-chan, it's the front seat."

"There's still some distance in the hall. It's nowhere near the red carpet!"

Tsuruko always had a reason. Relying on the squeezing skills she had learned on the subway during rush hour, she quickly moved to the side of the iron railing while protecting herself, and pulled Ishii Junsui over as well.

The people who were originally pushed aside, seeing that they were two young and beautiful girls, didn't know what to say. They grumbled a few words and squeezed to the side. Anyway, now it's either you squeeze me or I squeeze you.
"He probably hasn't arrived yet!" Hezi wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, then looked towards the red carpet, "Marlon Brando!"

The red carpet road is relatively empty now, with more media reporters waiting on the side. They want to interview the stars walking the red carpet for the convenience of publicity. These people all have media credentials and are official personnel of the Tokyo Film Festival.

"It's still early, the opening ceremony has just begun, I don't know when it will come!"

Ishii Junsui complained, holding a small Sony camera in his hand. This is a high-end product. Tsuruko borrowed it from Naoki Nagayama and gave it to Ishii Junsui because she wanted to take a photo with her idol.
"It doesn't matter, it's also nice to look at other stars!" Tsuruko didn't care, "Junshui-chan, if you see your idol, I'll help you take a picture too!"

"Hi~"

The two people almost bit their ears when talking because the noise next to them was really loud and it was so noisy that it was impossible to hear clearly.

At this moment, the crowd in front suddenly became noisy because a Toyota Century stopped at the entrance, and then two eye-catching figures came out from the back row.
Naoki Nagayama, dressed in a well-fitting black suit, with a bow tie around his neck and pomaded hair, looked like a handsome pretty boy. The other person who had been holding his arm since getting off the car was naturally Akina Nakamori!
Ming Cai, wearing a pure white suspender dress and a mature lady's bun, did not wear heavy makeup, but a little light, which made her look more dignified.
The pearl earrings on the ears complement the snow-white skin, and coupled with the white dress and high heels on the slender figure, the whole person is as noble and elegant as a white pearl~
One is a popular top idol, and the other is a famous director and writer, and the founder of the Tokyo International Film Festival. The two of them appeared on the red carpet, naturally attracting the attention of reporters and fans on the scene, just like a bomb exploded in the water, and the surging noise quickly spread from the entrance to the end of the red carpet~
As the two walked along, the click of shutters, the white light of flashes, the cheers of the crowd, and the enthusiastic calls of fans seemed to be following them all the time~
"Naoki-san, look over here!" "Akina-chan, smile!" "Come over here." "Come closer~" "."

"Tsuruko, it's Naoki-chan!" Ishii Junsui excitedly shook Tsuruko's arm in the crowd and shouted excitedly, "He came with Akina-chan! So handsome! So beautiful! Ah!!!"

"Hey, hey, hey~ I know it's Ni-chan!" Hezi helplessly watched her best friend go crazy, still saying hard, "It's not like I haven't seen it before! Junshui-chan, calm down!"

"Ah~~~ Naoki-chan is so handsome! Akina-chan's dress is also very beautiful! The pearl earrings are also very beautiful!"

Ishii Junsui had good eyesight and saw two people approaching from a distance. He quickly handed the camera to Tsuruko.

"They're coming! Come on, Tsuruko, take a picture for me later!"

"." Hezi became more and more helpless~
When Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori walked up to him, Ishii Junsui waved his arms:

"Naoki-san! Akina-chan! Here here!!! Look here!"

Naoki Nagayama was walking slowly, letting the media on both sides of the red carpet take pictures. At this time, he naturally saw Ishii Junsui waving and his sister standing next to them with a camera in her hand, so he took two steps to the two of them.
Akina Nakamori smiled and waved at the two people, while Nagayama Naoki next to her asked,

"Why are you two here?" "Don't we have tickets for the venue?"

"Tsuruko wants to take a photo with Brando!" Tsuruko was a little embarrassed and didn't reply, while Ishii Junsui smiled and said, "I want to take a photo with Naoki-san and Akina-chan!!! Is that okay?!"

Naoki Nagayama looked at his sister holding the camera, shrugged and looked at Akina~
And Akina Nakamori naturally nodded happily:

"of course!"

As they talked, the two of them bent down slightly and stood together with Ishii Junsui across the iron fence, asking Tsuruko to help take pictures. When this side was finished, Akina walked to the other side, took Tsuruko's arm, and pulled Naoki Nagayama to the other side to let Junsui help take pictures.
This made the other fans next to the two girls extremely envious, and they shouted loudly to take photos with Akina Nakamori and Naoki Nagayama.
However, the two had no choice but to apologize to them, then waved their hands with a smile and headed towards the inside of the venue where there were media reporters interviewing them!
After walking to the interview area, the reporter held out the microphone to him:
"Naoki-san, please wait a moment!"

"Hi?"

"Excuse me, you and Ms. Akina Nakamori should be the first guests to arrive today, why are you here so early?!"

"Because." Naoki Nagayama said helplessly, "I am the organizer and I will be receiving the participants later!"

"."

It turned out to be a perfectly legitimate reason and the reporter suddenly felt that his question was in vain!

He quickly changed direction and asked Akina Nakamori: "Akina-chan, Akina-chan looks so beautiful today!!!"

"Arigato~" Akina pursed her lips and smiled gracefully to express her gratitude.

“Is this a look specially created for the Tokyo International Film Festival?! This is the first time I’ve seen a white halter dress!”

"Hey, it's indeed my first time here." Akina Nakamori nodded, "Because this is my first time attending an international film festival like this, I want to be as formal and steady as possible."

"It's like a white pearl!"

"Arigado~"

"."

The two walked on the red carpet, which was less than 100 meters long, for nearly ten minutes until the next wave of celebrity guests arrived. Only then did Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori enter the NHK hall and the main venue.

"Akina, please go to your seat first. I need to help entertain the guests."

Naoki Nagayama saw Shuichi Itō, Otomo Yoshimura, and Haruki Kadokawa at the entrance. Although the opening ceremony had a professional etiquette company and emcees to help guide the process, as the organizers, Shuuichi and Kadokawa still had to express their attitude!
"Hey, Naoki-san, go get busy~"

Akina Nakamori didn't say much and went straight to her seat. After all, this was not a private social occasion and she was not one of the organizers. Even as a fiancée, she was just a guest now.

Watching Akina heading for the front row seats, Naoki Nagayama strode towards Idou Shuichi and the others, and together they began to greet the guests.
As time passed, more and more guests began to arrive. After seeing the few people here, they would come over to say hello.

"Yuko-san, you're here!"

When he saw it was Yuko Tanaka, Naoki Nagayama immediately welcomed her.

"How can I not come to Naoki-san's event!" Yuko Tanaka was also wearing a dress. She came with Ken Takakura. The two of them co-starred in "Yasha".

At this time, Ken Takakura and Haruki Kadokawa finished greeting each other.
"Mr. Takakura Ken, welcome~" Naoki Nagayama shook hands with Takakura Ken and said hello, "Please take care of me~"

"No, no!" Takakura Ken said with a smile, "Please take care of me Naoki-san in the future~"

After sending off this group, the next one was another familiar face, Mieko Harada.
"Mieko-san, long time no see~"

Mieko Harada had a cheerful smile on her face: "Naoki-san didn't even give me a chance to work with you, so of course I haven't seen you for a long time~"

"Haha, there will be many opportunities for cooperation in the future."

"."

"Matsusaka-san, welcome to the film festival~" The beautiful lady in front of me is Keiko Matsuzaka. They have only met a few times~
"Naoki-san, you look really energetic and handsome!"

"Where, where~"

"."

Just like that, every guest who came to the film festival exchanged a few polite words with a few people before walking into the venue. Even with foreign celebrity guests, Naoki Nagayama was able to say a few words. After all, he is now a high-end talent who knows four languages!

Just when Naoki Nagayama was a little overwhelmed, a voice suddenly sounded beside him.

"Naoki-san!"

Naoki Nagayama saw his acquaintance Kanako Higuchi, still wearing a black veil, with some resentment in his eyes, full of the charm of a Japanese beauty~
"Kanako-san~ Long time no see" "Welcome to the Tokyo International Film Festival."

"Naoki-san really organized a big event!"

Kanako Higuchi has been filming recently, and I haven't seen Naoki Nagayama for a long time. It is incredible to see such a big fanfare for the Tokyo International Film Festival.

"Haha, these are all big names in the entertainment industry coming to support us!" Naoki Nagayama made a few polite remarks and then escorted Kanako Higuchi into the entrance.

When he returned to his original position, the other people looked at him with strange eyes.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, Naoki-san is really popular with girls~"

"? Huh?" Naoki Nagayama was puzzled. "I'm just welcoming the guests like you guys!"

"Haha~" Kadokawa Haruki laughed, "Naoki-san, didn't you notice? All female celebrities and female artists will definitely greet you first!"

Idou Shuichi added: "And he spent a lot more time chatting with Naoki-san than the rest of us!"

Yoshimura Otomo made the final move, "In the end, it was Naoki-san who sent the enemy to prison."

"."

Naoki Nagayama couldn't refute it for a while
At this moment, a huge cheer rang out from the door again, and several people looked outside in unison:

"It looks like a big star!" "Who could it be?" "Sayuri Yoshinaga?" "I don't think so. There are so many girls cheering." "A male idol?" "."

Just as several people were guessing, a figure in a white suit slowly walked into the entrance hall of NHK and turned around to wave to the fans outside.
"It turned out to be Jackie Chan!" Kadokawa Haruki exclaimed, "No wonder!"

The other two also nodded. In this era, Jackie Chan's fame in Japan is extraordinary! Even local stars may not be able to compare with him~
Of course Naoki Nagayama knows Jackie Chan. It can be said that he is very familiar with him. It’s just that Jackie Chan has no connection with him now. This is the first time they meet!

"Welcome, Jackie!" Haruki Kadokawa obviously knew Jackie Chan, and knowing that he didn't speak Japanese, he went up to him and greeted him directly in English.

"Thank you!" Jackie Chan gave Kadokawa Haruki a warm hug.

Knowing that Jackie Chan and the others didn't know each other, Kadokawa Haruki helped introduce them:

"These are the organizers of the Tokyo International Film Festival. This is Director Yoshimura Otomo," "This is Director Idou Shuichi," and "This is Director Naoyama Naoki."

Jackie Chan at this time is already a well-established international superstar. He has connections in every country, and because of his personality, he likes to make friends.
Although he couldn't remember their Japanese names, Jackie Chan still greeted them in Japanese with a smile on his face:
"It's our first meeting. Thank you for your guidance."

"Sir, please give me your guidance."

When it came to Naoki Nagayama, Jackie Chan shook Naoki Nagayama's hand and still greeted him in unfamiliar Japanese, but Naoki Nagayama smiled and said directly in Chinese:

"Just call me Naoki Nagayama. Jackie Chan, are you here alone this time? Why didn't you bring a translator?"

"Translators can't walk the red carpet, come over from the side"

Jackie Chan answered subconsciously, and then looked at Naoki Nagayama with surprise. He subconsciously thought he was talking to a Chinese.

"Can you speak Mandarin?"

"Yes, I can speak a little Cantonese." Naoki Nagayama said with a smile, "but I'm not very fluent."

"Are you an overseas Chinese?"

Jackie Chan couldn't believe it because Naoki Nagayama's Mandarin sounded like a real Chinese, no different from the ones he met in China, without any Japanese accent at all!
"Haha, no," Naoki Nagayama laughed, "maybe I was a Chinese in my previous life~"

"You speak authentic Mandarin," Jackie Chan said with even more enthusiasm. After arriving in Neon, he mostly talked to his entourage because of the language barrier and never chatted with the locals. "Let's have a good chat later!"

"Haha, Brother Jackie Chan, let's go out for dinner together after the film festival is over?" Naoki Nagayama said.

"Okay!! But forget about the Japanese food. We'll be eating Japanese food these days."

“I know an authentic Sichuan hotpot!”

“That’s great~”

"."

As they chatted, Jackie Chan was escorted into the venue.
The other three people watched Naoki Nagayama and Jackie Chan communicate fluently in Mandarin with their eyes wide open.
Kadokawa Haruki nudged Yoshimura Otomo with his elbow:
"How come your Naoki speaks Chinese so well?"

".Naoki-san." Yoshimura Otomo knew that Naoyama Naoki could speak Chinese, but he didn't expect him to be so proficient. However, he couldn't show his weakness at this time. "He's a genius! What's the big deal about being able to speak Chinese? He can also speak German! Oh, and Italian or Spanish?"

".Japanese, English, Chinese, German, Italian."

Kadokawa Haruki sighed, five languages.
"It would be a shame not to translate under these conditions!!"

"."
