Chapter 1048: *Pick-up Manual*? Useless! It mainly depends on the person!

"Naoki-san, you're here~"

Xing Jiahua and Suzuki Xingxia at the Tree Friend building both had strange smiles when they saw Naoki Nagayama in the morning, making someone confused for a while.

"What's wrong? Why are you smiling so strangely?"

"Nothing!" Suzuki Xingxia said.

"Nothing at all!" Xing Jiahua added on the side.

"..."

Seeing that they didn't want to tell him, Naoki Nagayama didn't bother to ask and walked directly to the elevator.

Anyway, this kind of thing would definitely reach his ears in a while~

After arriving at Fangcun Dayou's office, he actually found that Fangcun Dayou was also strange, smiling when he saw him...

"What happened today?" Naoki Nagayama was really curious. "Did something good happen?"

"Good thing... it can be considered so..."

Fangcun Dayou handed over a newspaper on the table. The opened page was exactly the news about the completion disclosure of *Tiger of Ginza*.

Although there were guesses that the story prototype was Naoki Nagayama, regarding this point, Naoki Nagayama had already seen it at home:

"What's so funny about this?"

"Ah... not this one..." Fangcun Dayou took a look and found another flashy newspaper from the table. "It's this one... *Sports Hochi*..."

"?? This kind of subway newspaper?"

*Sports Hochi* was a type of sports newspaper in Japan, basically entertainment news, and there were special sections like "Pink Lady"... They were generally sold in subway station convenience stores and such places for people to pass the time.

So Shanyingyuan didn't subscribe to it!

Opening it, there was also news about the movie disclosure meeting yesterday, but the headline was *How to take a star home? Please see the pick-up manual of the playboy Naoki!!! (First you have to be rich~)*

"Ha?!!!"

Naoki Nagayama opened it and took a look. The first half was about the news of *Tiger of Ginza*, and then it went off-track, combining Naoki Nagayama's past news and the materials released by *Tiger of Ginza*, starting to sort out the things he did when he was in love...

For example, "booking a high-end restaurant," "private fireworks show," "customized movie," "cruise party," "foreign travel," "airship love confession," "precious jewelry"...

In short, as long as you operate according to these few items, even the most famous and popular star in Japan can be pocketed!

"..."

Looking at the *Pick-up Manual* that occupied almost the entire page, Naoki Nagayama finally understood why the two girls at the front desk smiled so strangely...

"What pick-up manual!" Naoki Nagayama threw down the newspaper. "It didn't say the point at all!"

"Oh?" Fangcun Dayou drank tea leisurely, teasing. "Then what is the point?"

"The point is... the protagonist must be me, Naoki Nagayama!"

Someone made a narcissistic look.

"These operations are just icing on the cake. As long as it's me, even if I just send a dogtail grass ring, I can still chase Akina!"

"Pfft~~~"

Fangcun Dayou sprayed a mouthful of water.

"Naoki-san, you are really..."

"Have self-knowledge, right~"

Naoki Nagayama didn't give others a chance to complain and sat down directly to change the subject.

"Alright, alright, this little gossip news is not worth making a fuss about~ Dayou-san, after negotiating with Nippon TV, how is the progress of *Voice of Japan*?"

"Ah... now the studio has started to be designed, and it will start renovation in these two days..." Fangcun Dayou said. "NTV provided a large studio, and the scene can be arranged to seat three hundred people..."

Naoki Nagayama nodded. Even if he didn't lead it directly, he still had to pay attention to the progress.

"As for the producer of the program..." Fangcun Dayou paused. "Because Tree Friend itself lacks experience in variety shows... actually, only you, Naoki-san, have the experience of filming variety shows..."

"And Zongsheng-kun, Nishimoto-kun, and the others have even less experience... so this time we contacted a veteran program producer... Fujiwara Kazuhisa... to help with production."

"Ah... so that's it~"

Naoki Nagayama nodded. This time NTV gave Tree Friend great autonomy. Besides the producer, the mentors, judges, hosts, etc., could all be chosen independently.

"In addition... the audition promotion plan for the program has already been written by Watanabe Eiichiro... I have read it and offered some modification opinions. This is the second version..." Fangcun Dayou handed over the proposal. "Naoki-san, take a look. If there's no problem, start the promotion..."

Saying that, Fangcun Dayou summoned Watanabe Eiichiro over with a phone call and asked him to introduce the promotion plan.

Watanabe Eiichiro came over and started introducing the promotion measures...

Since the promotion channels were almost monopolized, promotion in Japan in this era was just a few ways...

"This time it's not a movie, so it's mainly through distributing flyers, TV promotion, and advertising in magazines and newspapers (with ad pages), etc..."

Fangcun Dayou interjected:

"By then, we will conduct the initial selection on our side... and then conduct recording and filming..."

"Mm, lower the standard for initial selection..." Naoki Nagayama nodded. He had no opinion on this plan either. "Mainly look at the timbre, as long as they can sing the song completely, it's fine..."

"Hai~" Fangcun Dayou indicated he remembered. "There is one more thing, which is the rotating chair you described, Naoki-san, which needs to be customized by a factory..."

"Ha?" Naoki Nagayama was surprised. "It should be very simple, right?"

A button switch, press it and the chair rotates 180 degrees...

"It also needs to be customized... After all, safety and styling also need to be considered..."

"..." "Alright~"

The three people discussed the problems that might appear in *Voice of Japan* in the office one after another, until they had gone through the promotion and recording of the program completely.

When it was time to leave, Fangcun Dayou asked:

"Naoki-san... do you want to meet producer Fujiwara Kazuhisa?"

"Haha, no need..." Naoki Nagayama patted Fangcun Dayou on the shoulder. "Dayou-san chose him~ It must be no problem!"

"..."

A sense of emotion surged in Fangcun Dayou's heart~ Naoki-san's trust in me has really never changed!

After communicating with Fangcun Dayou about the progress of *Voice of Japan*, Naoki Nagayama came to the editing room.

Pushing open the door, he really saw four guys who were already a bit bearded, huddled in the editing room working, and sometimes they would make strange giggling sounds...

Looks like they were working overtime very happily~

"Xiaoshen Zhengxiao-kun, Xu Mudao-kun, Zongsheng-kun, and Nishimoto-kun..."

Naoki Nagayama called the names of several director seeds at once. These people were the future successors of Tree Friend in the film industry!

It wasn't that there were no young employees in other movies, such as the batch of students Xiao Sen Xiaoshen Zhengxiao cultivated when filming *Our Little Sister*, but only two director seeds were found... The others would slowly differentiate into other types of work in the movie...

At least editing wouldn't be their turn~

"Naoki-san!" X4

Xiao Sen Xiaoshen Zhengxiao stood up and welcomed Naoki Nagayama.

"Naoki-san, why did you come over today?"

"I heard you have been in the editing room for three days..." Naoki Nagayama walked to the side of the editing workbench. Although it was the latest version of the movie editing workbench, the work was still very cumbersome and required skilled workers to operate well.

"When can we enter the digital era~"

"???" Xu Mudao Xu looked over puzzled. "What digital?"

"It means that in the future, movie editing can be done directly on a computer with high-definition digital images, without these film strips..."

"How is that possible?!" The others all shook their heads. "If you don't use film strips, how can you call it filming a movie!"

"Videotape is too blurry, it doesn't have the texture of film strips..."

Naoki Nagayama took a piece of edited material and put it on the projector, still saying:

"Technology develops so fast... A few years ago, we were still using old-fashioned editors... Future high-definition digital images are not necessarily worse than film strip images..."

Seeing that several people still didn't believe it, Naoki Nagayama didn't demand them to believe it... After all, even thirty years later, there were international great directors who liked to use film strips to film...

The screen in the editing room played a clip of *Tiger of Ginza*. It happened to be the scene where the male lead entered the stock company... which was the scene of Tree Friend Capital.

Naoki Nagayama saw Zhang Guorong's face full of pride and excitement, full of the joy of getting rich, as if he had reached the high point of his life, and then delivered that exciting speech...

"Poverty is never noble!" "I choose to become a rich man!" "..."

The flamboyant and infectious picture made the viewers feel excited...

Naoki Nagayama was a bit curious:

"Why edit this part first?"

Xu Mudao Xu replied:

"In the promotion department's plan, some trailers are needed, and I think this part of the scene is very tense..."

"Ah... as a trailer~" Naoki Nagayama nodded. "The choice is not bad~"

Xu Mudao Xu put on a smile. This time Naoki Nagayama really didn't participate much in the filming of *Tiger of Ginza*, and now even the subsequent promotion was handled by themselves. It seems that Naoki-san really thinks they already have the ability to stand alone!

Watching the four of them work for a while, Naoki Nagayama patted them on the shoulders:

"Everyone is working very hard... I see it all in my eyes... However, health still needs to be guaranteed! Don't work overtime too late!"

"Hai! We will pay attention!" X4

From their eyes, Naoki Nagayama seemed to see the prompt of "loyalty up+up+up"...

Showing up a little, a few words of concern that cost nothing, this is the little trick for the boss to buy people's hearts!

If Naoki Nagayama's method of obtaining loyalty was also compiled into a book, it would be much more advanced than any *Pick-up Manual*. Learning it would truly help you get rich!

After walking out of the company gate, Naoki Nagayama didn't even drive, but walked directly on the streets of Ikebukuro under the sun~

While looking at the increasing number of young people in Ikebukuro, he walked toward the milk tea shop he opened before...

Half an hour later, Naoki Nagayama looked up at the snowman logo with a crown holding an ice cream crutch, and finally stopped:

"Anyway, no one is suing me for infringement now... hehe~"

Mixue Milk Tea had been open for two or three days. Naoki Nagayama had promised to come and teach Hezi and Ishii Junshui how to make milk tea, so he would come over for a while every morning these two days.

Stepping into Mixue Milk Tea, Naoki Nagayama had already seen customers in the shop, and the two girls wearing rose-red work aprons were explaining:

"Currently, the shop only sells hand-beaten lemon tea and pearl milk tea... other products... we can't make them yet..."

Just as she was saying this, Hezi saw Naoki Nagayama walking over and immediately changed her words:

"Please wait a moment, the chief milk tea master has arrived... Matcha Frappé can already be made!"

Naoki Nagayama shook his head, walked into the staff room of the back kitchen, put on a work apron, and also wore a mask commonly used in the kitchen... He was worried about being recognized and causing an accident.

"The guest ordered a Matcha Frappé, right... please wait a moment..."

After saying that, he walked toward the ice maker and started preparing... After it was done, he let the guest pay with satisfaction.

"I say..." Naoki Nagayama looked at Hezi and Ishii Junshui, who were milk tea girls. "You two should practice making milk tea well... Now the shop has just opened and there are relatively few customers. After a while, when the reputation goes out and there are more customers, do you still have to wait for me to make milk tea?!"

"Nii-chan is standing and talking without back pain!" Hezi said carelessly. "How long have we been learning, how can it be so fast!"

"So you have to practice more!"

"But what about the milk tea after so much practice?"

"Drink it all!"

"What if you can't drink it?"

"Then let your monkey drink it!"

"Where does my house have a monkey?"

Hezi subconsciously refuted, but suddenly thought of her boyfriend Jin Tian Dalu... He was seen by Naoki Nagayama when he sent her over two days ago, and from then on, he had a nickname of "the monkey you are holding hands with."

"..."

Ishii Junshui on the side covered her mouth and giggled. It was really interesting to watch this pair of siblings chat...

"When there are really too many customers, you can also call your monkey over to help!"

Naoki Nagayama continued to say, then turned to start preparing materials.

"Alright, today let's learn how to make Yangzhi Binglu..."

"Hai~~" X2

While teaching the two milk tea girls how to make new products, while occasionally receiving a few customers... Although it had only been open for a short time, Naoki Nagayama could feel that this little shop already had some reputation.

Because some customers mentioned things like "So it's this one" and "I heard it's delicious" when chatting, which meant it had already spread in the circle of young people.

"Nii-chan~" Hezi bit the straw in her mouth, drinking the newly made Yangzhi Binglu. "Is this milk tea shop going to open forever?"

"Mm, what's wrong?"

"But Junshui and I are just summer vacation workers~"

"So?"

Naoki Nagayama actually knew, but he was just experiencing the popularity of milk tea now. After a while, he would definitely find employees who specialized in opening milk tea shops.

"There is a work-study organization in our school..." Hezi looked at her second brother. "Should we contact them? That way, even if we don't do it after summer vacation, there will always be people coming to work..."

Naoki Nagayama looked at his sister. He could directly go to a labor agency to hire people, which was more stable and had labor contracts than university students...

Helping people who work-study like this... should be approximately equal to doing a good deed?

Hezi has grown up!

However, since Hezi brought it up, then naturally he had to add some burden:

"That's fine... Since Hezi brought it up, then the docking with the university work-study organization, including the payment of wages and the management of students, will be left to Hezi?"

"Eh?!! Me?"

"Yes..." Naoki Nagayama said. "Just treat it as learning how to manage employees!"

His sister would be a Tree Friend in the future, so she couldn't be someone with high eyes and low hands... If she couldn't even manage a few university students well, then don't think about being any management level!

"What? Can't do it?" Naoki Nagayama stimulated Hezi.

"How is that possible! Such a simple thing!"

"That's good, leave it to you! Don't cry when the time comes!"

Although Hezi was kind, Naoki Nagayama expected that she would see the evil side of human nature.

Especially when the milk tea shop makes a lot of money, and the part-timers' wages are only so much, in the eyes of some students, Hezi might be an accomplice who unites with the shop owner to exploit labor and exploit university students...

At that time, it would be normal to be angered to tears~

In the ivory tower, everyone is naturally a good person, but after walking out of it, how to face customers, how to evaluate performance, pay wages, how to manage employees...

This requires experience, and sometimes you have to put on a straight face!

"Hmph... don't underestimate me!"

At this time, Hezi didn't realize what would happen in the future at all, full of confidence.

"I grew up in a Shizuoka izakaya family and was called the child king!

Even Nii-chan, who is so silent, can learn how to manage a company, what can't I do?!"

"Mm, keep this enthusiasm, ganbatte!" ===== CHAPTER 1049 =====

"Mm, keep up that enthusiasm, Ganbare!"
