Tokyo bubble life

Even in a big city like Tokyo, when the old and the new are handed over, it seems a bit deserted.

The old local residents naturally spend the Spring Festival in the city, but migrant workers like Naoki Nagayama will still go back to their hometown at this time.

Their departure made the bustling city suddenly empty. Some people will return to Tokyo in a few days, and many people have chosen to stay in their hometown since then.

But it doesn't matter, there will still be batches of young people rushing into Tokyo like stunned youths, injecting fresh blood into this huge city.

After Naoki Naoyama returned to Yamazakura-in, he unwrapped the presents from his friends and was very happy~

Then I lived a house life like a salted fish with Ying Taro, I didn’t even have to run in the morning, I slept and ate all day, ate and played, and went to bed when I was tired from playing, and occasionally listened to music, went for a walk, etc.

After a few days, Yingtaro has become much rounder with the naked eye~

After breakfast this morning, Naoki Naoyama patted Yutaro's fleshy belly, and couldn't help saying: "Yutaro, it's too bad, if this goes on, it's going to become a fat house!"

Looking at the good weather outside the window again: "The year is almost over, we have to cheer up!"

After speaking, I put a collar on the dog and regained the habit of running in the morning~

Chiyoda's store still has the atmosphere of the New Year. The festive decorations, posters for discounts and promotions, and "Happy New Year" from the shop assistants who are also on duty during the Chinese New Year, all tell the coming of the New Year.

However, some office workers in suits and leather shoes can already be seen walking on the road in a hurry, and the early bird always catches the worm.

Naoki Yongshan passed by the small shop of Qingshan, no surprise, this casual shop is still closed, presumably the old man and Zhikazi Qingshan are still staying in their hometown.

"By the way, Zhikezijiang is already a sophomore in high school, right? Next year, like Hezi, she will take the college entrance examination~" Because my sister is going to take the college entrance examination, the matter of the college entrance examination is always lingering in my mind recently, "I don't know what university I will be admitted to. "

Naoki Naoyama, who returned to Yamazakura-in again, broke out in a thin layer of sweat, and was about to take a bath when he heard the phone ringing in the living room.

"At this time. How can there be a phone call?"

During the New Year, it is usually a New Year call, but his friends should know that he has returned to his hometown for the New Year, so why would he call?

"Moses, this is Yamazakura-in."

"Naoki-san?" Itou Shuichi's voice came over, sounding a little tired, "As expected, you're back~"

"Xiu Yisang? You actually called me at this time?"

"Hey, since Naoki-san has come back, that's good." Itou Shuichi said, "Can I come to the studio? My gangster movie is almost finished editing, I would like to invite you to take a look~"

"Hey! So fast? Could it be that Xiu Yisang didn't even go back for the Chinese New Year?!"

Editing a movie is not so easy. Even in this era, a movie usually takes at least half a month. It can be completed at the beginning of the year, which only shows that Shuichi Ido has been working overtime during this period.

"Of course I still eat the New Year's Eve dinner~ Oh, at least I should say, Naoki-san, Happy New Year~"

".Arigado Happy New Year"

"Remember to come here quickly!"

Listening to the silence in the microphone, Naoki Yongshan reluctantly put down the phone.

Originally, he wanted to rest more, but he felt that if Xiuyi Yitang worked so hard, he would not be able to calm down.

He said to Ying Taro who was lying on the carpet: "Yi Taro, did you hear that? Do you want to go to the studio with me?"

The dog who had just finished running stuck out his tongue and put his head on the carpet, expressing his refusal.

He drove his own big car on a road with few vehicles, and came to the studio again in less than half an hour.

Compared with years ago, the studio has not changed at all, but after opening the door and entering, the empty office looks very open.

Going straight to the editing room, pushing open the door, an unpleasant smell of smoke, oil, and rubber came out from inside, and even empty beer cans and some food packaging bags could be seen.

Naoki Yongshan was blocked from the door by the smell of rushing out. He couldn't help taking a few steps back, took a few breaths of fresh air from the window in the corridor, and then rushed into the editing room holding his breath. Next to the window inside, he lifted the curtain and opened the window.

With a burst of refreshing cold air rushing in from outside, he relaxed his breath a little.

At this time, the two pale figures in the editing room, like vampires exposed to the sun, covered their eyes and shouted: "Ah, it's too bright! Naoki-san, why did you suddenly open the curtain?"

With the help of the bright light, Naoki Naoyama could clearly see the two people in the editing room, Shuichi Ido and Masataka Komori. It seemed that this apprentice had also been recruited.

"Has even Zheng Xiaojun been dragged to work overtime?"

"Hey, I just finished editing the movie overnight." Masataka Komori rubbed his eyes, the bloodshot eyes were frightening.

"You two. How long have you been in the editing room?"

Greasy hair, unshaven beard, emaciated, pale complexion, and big dark circles under the eyes look like giant pandas.

After all, Masataka Komori was younger, so he quickly recovered: "Three days? Four days? One week?"

Always working in this dark editing room, it's easy to lose track of time.

Itou Shuichi said: "Anyway, I'll be here after the New Year's Eve dinner."

Naoki Yongshan looked at the state of the two and felt sorry for him: "It's really hard, but for this underworld movie, do we need to do this?"

Shuichi Itou retorted loudly: "Do you think I'm doing it for this movie? I'm doing it for the New Year's "Boys Over Flowers" and "Midnight Ring"! That's why I'm desperately trying to catch up!"

Sure enough, the obsession is deep!

"So, why did you ask me to come here today to watch this movie?" Naoki Naoyama was a little curious, "I have nothing to do with this movie, the screenwriter and filming are not me? I don't even know the plot of the script~"

Shuichi Ido seemed a little embarrassed: "Ah, when the cutting was just finished, I was a little dizzy and thought that Naoki-san was also involved, so I called you in a daze."

"." This reason is fresh and refined, "So, it's actually okay to call me over?"

Masataka Komori didn't speak, but Shuichi Ido showed the attitude that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water: "Anyway, there is nothing wrong with Naoki-san at home, right? Let's take a look~"

"Xiu Yi-san"

Seeing that both of them looked a bit exhausted and in a trance, Naoki Naoyama couldn't say anything excessive,

"Forget it. You two go clean up and go out and eat something"

Naoki Yongshan didn't know what the routine of the two of them was like, but it looked like a period of sobriety after an all night, and they didn't look like they were going to sleep at all.

When both of them went out, they were still idle, and began to watch the edited video tape.

This movie is called "The New Generation Is Bad". It seems to be a very common name. Then two different underworld organizations happened to be in the same place and started fighting

The plot is so-so, the filming is so-so, and the protagonist is so-so. However, there are quite a few shots of the ruthless underworld organization in it, maybe because the supporting role is really Yakuza.

"Naoki-san, how's it going?" Shuichi Ido came back at some time, and asked impatiently.

"Well, it's an ordinary underworld movie." Naoki Yongshan didn't want to praise against his will,

Seeing Naoki Naoki's expression, Shuichi Ido knew it: "Sure enough, it's an ordinary movie."

It doesn't matter whether the box office can reach tens of millions. This is also the level of most ordinary directors.

Seeing Shuichi Itou seemed a little depressed, Naoki Naoyama comforted him: "It's just a normal commercial film, as long as it can make money, there are elements of campus, evil, and gangsters, and with Kadokawa's theater chain, there is still hope for hundreds of millions. .”

"Hmm, maybe~" Shuichi Ido was still depressed, "It's hard to make a gangster movie, Naoki-san, right?"

Naoki Naoyama nodded: "The main story of this movie has not found the right audience. It is not passionate enough for young people who are curious about bad culture, and it is a bit naive for adults who like gangster movies. It doesn't stick to both."

"Huh? Then Naoki-san thinks how to make this kind of movie?"

Naoki Yongshan chatted while arranging the video tapes: "Haha, if it were me, then I would focus on young people who are curious about bad culture, and magnify the bad culture."

Masataka Komori interrupted and asked, "How do you zoom in on the bad culture on campus? The camera focuses on fighting? Bullying? Protection fees?"

"Almost." Naoki Naoyama shook his head slightly, "But we can't shoot this kind of ordinary high school phenomenon, what's the point, and it won't attract others."

"Then how should I shoot it?"

Masataka Komori's question seems to have aroused Naoki Naoki's desire to talk about the mountains, and the water blower from the major forums in his previous life went online:

"For example, imagine a fictional high school that is the strongest, the most vicious and the most evil! In that high school, various bad groups fight every day, and violent incidents continue. Only those who really conquer all the bad people can get the name For the strongest throne!"

Komori Masataka was stunned, this whimsical thinking, and "sit on the strongest throne". It sounds like an inexplicable passion

The plot of "Hot Blooded High School" was applied in his mind, and Naoki Naoyama never stopped talking: "The conflict in the plot can start from an accident, such as a transfer student who saw everything about this high school and decided to change this high school. All delinquents only listen to the strongest person, so if you want to change, you must become the strongest delinquent. So the transfer student bet on the title of "the strongest" and started the journey to dominate Suzuran!"

Yi Tangxiu was fascinated when he heard it, but suddenly felt a sense of disobedience: "Ling Lan?"

"Ah, yes, the name of the high school is Suzuran, didn't I mention it?"

Itou Xiu took a deep breath, and then slowly said: "Naoki-san, do you have another movie script?!"

Naoki Naoyama spent a lot of effort trying to convince Shuichi Ido that he was just talking casually, but Shuichi Yido believed that this was already a movie script.

"Naoki-san, hurry up and get out the complete script!"

"Xiu Yisang, this is really just what I said casually just now~"

"Even the name of the high school has been chosen!" Shuichi Yitang looked over with a resentful look at a heartbroken person. Coupled with the current haggard expression, Naoki Naoyama felt a little guilty.

Masataka Komori also kept nodding beside him. The story just now sounds much more interesting than the movie he just edited. If it is really made, it will definitely be a big hit again.

"Xiuichi-san, I really just thought of it." Naoki Yongshan couldn't argue. He really didn't have a script. He didn't know what happened, but his subconscious didn't recall all the plots of the movie. As far as the script is concerned, it should belong to the initial stage that has just been inspired."

Seeing Naoki Naoki's sincere expression, Yitang seemed to believe it: "Okay."

Just as Naoki Yongshan wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, he heard his voice: "When will Naoki-san write it?!"

"Xiu Yi-san. Could it be that "Boys Over Flowers" and "Midnight Ring" aren't enough?"

Itoh Shuichi smiled shamelessly: "How can it be enough? No matter how many good movies you make, you won't be satisfied!"

So throughout the whole day, Naoki Naoyama was stuck in the studio by Shuichi Itou, discussing the plot of "Hot Blooded High School"

Yes, the name of the movie has been confirmed~

A recording studio of Warner Pioneer,

Akina Nakamori is recording the music of "1/2 Myth". Although this song is not very to her liking, she has already practiced very proficiently.

At the end of the day, when the recording was completed, Akina did not say goodbye politely as before, but found the band leader Yasomako Ishihara who had worked with him many times,

"Ishihara-san?"

"Akina-chan, is there anything I need to adjust?" This Ms. Nakamori Akina is famously serious in her work, and she will also bluntly raise the band's request, and Ishihara Yasomako has already understood.

But this time, he didn't propose any modification, instead he took out a printed sheet music: "Secret Marseille, can Ishihara-san help me to look at this sheet music?"

"A new song?"

Ishihara Yasumi was surprised. Generally, the staff of Warner Pioneer communicated with them about this kind of thing. Could it be that Warner's internal adjustment is not over yet? For him, who is regarded as a peripheral person, the relocation turmoil within Warner is not very clear, only that the personnel are being adjusted.

"Isn't it?" Akina smiled sheepishly. "It's a song given by a friend. I want to trouble Ishihara-san to play it to see the effect."

"Ah~so that's it~" This kind of trivial matter is not a big deal. Record producers often have this kind of request.

After communicating with the other two band members, Ishihara started with the guitar

The soft melody sounded quickly, and became very smooth after a while.

"Akina-chan, do you want to try singing along?" After the very simple performance, Ishihara Yasomako looked at Nakamori Akina and said, purely from the soundtrack, it is just a simple soothing melody and rhythm.

I practiced this song many times when I was at home, and even memorized the lyrics: "Huh? That's rude~"

Outside the recording room, manager Okawa Koji knew from the staff who came out of the recording studio that today's recording was over, but Akina Nakamori hadn't come out for a long time, so he walked in.

Then I found that in the recording studio, Akina Nakamori was singing a song with the accompaniment of the band,

When I opened the door of the recording room, I heard Akina Nakamori singing a song that I hadn't heard before, but it was very nice under the soft and soothing melody:

"

Has Darlin' dream come true?

I don't know what to say to you?

Has Darlin' dream come true?

hey darlin' i love you~

"

Okawa Koji listened quietly. As a manager in the entertainment industry for many years, he naturally has a certain level of appreciation for songs.

This song has already reached the level of being sung!

On the car going back, Okawa Koji couldn't help asking: "Ming Caijiang, is that song the next song?"

"Ah, no." This song was not sold to Warner or Yanyin, it was a song given to me by Naoki Naoyama, it was my own song~

"It was a song given to me by a friend~"

Akina Nakamori hasn't decided whether to use it to make a record, but no matter what, I still have to ask Naoki-san!

I just don’t know if Naoki-san has returned to Tokyo at this time
