Chapter 1235: Rights Protection Proposal

In such a summer, Naoki Nagayama rarely wore a black suit.

And Akina, on the side, was helping to tie a blue tie. After tying it, she took a step back and looked him up and down, nodding with satisfaction:

"Sure enough, Naoki-san is a clothes hanger, with meat on his body, he looks thin in clothes... He looks even more handsome when wearing a suit!"

Naoki Nagayama looked at himself in the mirror and felt that if he wore a pair of glasses, he would have even more of the vibe of an ascetic, domineering CEO....

"Hehehe, how about I wear another pair of glasses, let you see what is called a refined scumbag..."

After Akina heard it, she clapped her hands, rummaged through her makeup cabinet, found a pair of black flat glasses, and put them on Naoki Nagayama:

"Sure enough! Very feeling!"

"......"

Someone was speechless, I'm not going to walk the runway! Today is going to the Diet!

"Akina, aren't you worried that I will provoke some little girls?"

"Che, I'm not worried!"

Akina was full of confidence, that was confidence in Naoki-san.

"I have full confidence in Naoki-san!"

"....."

Although Naoki Nagayama does have resistance to some temptations and tests.

The key is, if there are too many tests, the old cadre can't stand it either!

"Okay, I guess I have to attend a banquet tonight... Akina, you don't have to wait for me..."

Naoki Nagayama, dressed in formal wear, bent down and kissed little Xia Hua, who was looking at her father and mother with wide eyes on the bed, and then walked towards the door, the driver was already waiting.

The black Toyota Century carried Naoki Nagayama and drove towards the Diet Building, which is also in Chiyoda.

This Diet Building, completed in 1936, is completely a Western-style building, with stained glass and marble inlaid floors, vine-patterned stained glass ceilings... Even the interior decoration and furniture have no feeling of Japanese culture at all~

Like the political system, it is a complete Western invasion.

In the past, this place was relatively deserted. Although it is open for visits, tourists usually don't choose such niche attractions to visit, and general topics won't attract too much attention. Only some official media will send reporters to take photos and report.

However, today, on the last day of this year's ordinary Diet session, the entrance of the Diet Building actually gathered many reporters and the public, and there were even supporters holding placards, inscribed with "Film Industry Practitioner Rights Protection Proposal."

"This is... arranged by Shuichi-san and the others?"

Naoki Nagayama was a bit surprised when passing by.

As Naoki Nagayama's exclusive driver, Tomoyasu Toda is also well-informed, and he explained directly:

"It seems they are all members of the Tokyo Film Industry Association, spontaneous... but not directors or producers, mostly grassroots practitioners like extras, temporary workers, and field staff."

That's right, every industry has a professional contempt chain~

Directors, screenwriters, and cameramen are still considered strong professions in the industry and can relatively maintain their own interests, while those more grassroots practitioners who live from hand to mouth are the true beneficiaries of the "Rights Protection Proposal."

"So that's it..."

Naoki Nagayama felt that Tree Friend stood on the side of justice~

After parking the car and walking into the House of Representatives building, Naoki Nagayama first came to an internal lounge. After walking in, he found that Shuichi Yin Tang, Dayou Fangcun, and the others were all there, and he also saw many legislators he didn't know.

"Naoki-san, you're here!"

Shuichi Yin Tang saw Naoki Nagayama arrive and immediately raised his hand to signal, and then introduced Naoki Nagayama to the legislators next to him.

"Quick Naoki-san... This is legislator Tomiichi Murayama of the Socialist Party, and also a member of the Social Labor Committee!"

"Murayama-san, this is Naoki Nagayama of our Tree Friend!"

Looking at the kind-faced old man who was already over fifty, Naoki Nagayama felt that he seemed to have some impression, and greeted him:

"Nice to meet you for the first time, I am Naoki Nagayama... Please give me more advice..."

"I am Tomiichi Murayama..."

Tomiichi Murayama shook hands with a smile.

"Naoki Nagayama's great name is like thunder to the ears..."

Ah! Tomiichi Murayama of the Socialist Party!

Naoki Nagayama finally remembered who this person was. Isn't he one of the cabinet prime ministers of the coalition government after the Takeshita regime collapsed?!

And he is a politician known for being pro-China!

"Where, where, just a false name..." Naoki Nagayama smiled modestly, "It is the legislators like legislator Murayama who do their best for the rights of workers who are the real heroes!"

(And you, my friend, are the real hero!)

"Hahaha~"

The flattering words spoken from the mouth of the famous Naoki Nagayama made Tomiichi Murayama laugh.

Although he is a senior member of the Socialist Party and a member of the House of Representatives, he has actually been working in the Social Labor Committee of the Diet, considered a person behind the scenes, and his reputation is not obvious.

Participating in the legislative work of the Film Association's "Proposal" this time has indeed allowed him to make many connections in the entertainment industry.

"Where, where, we are all for the rights of workers..."

After complimenting each other a few times, Shuichi Yin Tang continued to introduce many other people in the room to Naoki Nagayama. Some were social celebrities, some were Diet members, and everyone was a person who supported their own proposal.

A quick glance, this room actually gathered many members of the opposition party in the Diet, making Naoki Nagayama feel that Tree Friend has considerable influence in the Diet.

After meeting all the legislators, Shuichi Yin Tang pulled Naoki Nagayama aside:

"Naoki-san, Hamada-san and the others are from the Liberal Democratic Party, so they didn't come over... But according to Hamada-san's confirmation, at least 56 non-factional legislators clearly support the 'Proposal'... The legislators supported by the Tanaka faction are about a hundred..."

"Plus the opposition party on our side, the 85 seats of the Socialist Party will definitely support it, and other small parties can gather about 20 seats one after another..."

It is already very good for non-factional legislators to have more than 50 seats under the coalition of Koichi Hamada... It mainly depends on the duel between the Tanaka faction and the Takeshita faction.

"So, currently supporting the 'Proposal', there are about 260 seats..."

Naoki Nagayama rubbed his chin.

"Distance from two-thirds, still need more than 10 legislators..."

Among the 465 seats in the House of Representatives, the Liberal Democratic Party occupies 304, leaving only more than 160 seats for the opposition party, so it ultimately depends on the choice within the Liberal Democratic Party.

"Actually, the probability is very high."

Shuichi Yin Tang was full of confidence.

"The Tanaka faction is after all the ruling faction... Plus the recent actions of Nobuo Asai let me know that the Takeshita faction is not trying to block us, but to control the Film Association, so the final result may exceed our expectations."

"That would be best!"

After whispering with Shuichi Yin Tang for a while, Naoki Nagayama communicated with Dayou Fangcun about the situation of the media outside, and then came to the conference hall of the House of Representatives with everyone.

Although Tree Friend and the Film Association people are not legislators, they can also sit in the gallery to listen.

The atmosphere in the conference hall was not what Naoki Nagayama imagined before. Diet members chatted with each other, walked around in the hall, and some legislators even walked to the gallery to chat with Naoki Nagayama and the others... In short, it was not as serious as imagined.

Naoki Nagayama also saw Noboru Takeshita, who was secretly eyeing the Film Association, surrounded by a group of people, saying something with a peaceful expression... Sure enough, he had a baby face, and the smile on his face made people feel that there was no threat at all.

However, after the time arrived, the Speaker of the House of Representatives walked onto the podium, just like a head teacher walking onto the podium, and the conference hall started to become quiet.

Speaker of the House of Representatives Kenzaburo Hara walked onto the podium and gently tapped the wooden hammer, attracting the attention of the legislators:

"Legislators, please be quiet... The XXth ordinary session of the National Diet, now begins..."

He flipped through the materials in his hand and started cueing the process.

"The first topic, the proposal regarding the sales tax concept..."

With a "boom," the legislators below suddenly became noisy again. The consumption tax is a tax type that successive governments have sought for a long time and has always been full of controversy, and even within the party, there are different opinions.

This time, the Nakasone Cabinet pushed the consumption tax again under the name of "sales tax concept," and unsurprisingly, it again received strong opposition from the members of the House of Representatives.

Even if it is the Cabinet Prime Minister, if he wants to forcibly push this bill, he may pay a huge price.

In the last ordinary Diet session, the first proposal caused a huge wave of opposition...

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

The sound of the wooden hammer hitting the cushion was heavy and crisp. Speaker of the House of Representatives Kenzaburo Hara had to use this method to maintain order.

"Legislators, please listen carefully, and then use the voting power in your hands to express your opinions!"

"All sit down, don't quarrel!"

"Even more, don't hit people!!"

"Marshal, carry that person out!"

"....."

Naoki Nagayama looked at the noisy conference hall of the House of Representatives and didn't know what to say for a moment.

This scene was very much like a kindergarten teacher trying hard to maintain order in front of a group of children, telling this child not to bully another, and also having to be careful at all times that a certain child would cry and lead the whole class to cry...

"So national policies are formulated by such a group of guys..."

The words muttered in his mouth made Dayou Fangcun and Shuichi Yin Tang on the side very agreeable, and even produced the idea of "rather than letting this group of people govern, it's better to let Naoki-san"...

The air conditioning in the House of Representatives is too strong. Looking at the thin appearance of his close friend, should he let Naoki-san wear another piece of clothing...

However, noisy is noisy, and the conference hall of the House of Representatives still fulfilled its duty.

Speaker Kenzaburo Hara calmly read the topics on the podium, let people read the content of the proposal, narrated the opinions of the hearing and the review committee, and then let the legislators vote...

Naturally, Prime Minister Nakasone's "sales tax concept" was mercilessly rejected.

Even within the Liberal Democratic Party, a large number of legislators held opposing opinions... It's not that they didn't think the consumption tax was useless, but simply that they couldn't let the consumption tax bill pass in Prime Minister Nakasone's hands.

Noboru Takeshita, surrounded by legislators, still had an innocent smile on his face, but everyone knew that Noboru Takeshita was already the designated next Prime Minister, and he wanted to let this tax law pass in his own hands and become an important achievement on his resume!

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

The wooden hammer sounded again.

"The next topic, regarding the 'Film Industry Practitioner Labor Rights Protection Proposal'..."

"Proposed by the Minister of Education, please ask Masajuro Shiokawa to make a statement..."

Next, naturally, Masajuro Shiokawa gave a general overview in front of many legislators again. As the nominal leader of this proposal, he was also very confident.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

Speaker Kenzaburo Hara sounded the wooden hammer again.

"Now, please ask the legislators to vote!"

This proposal did not cause strong opposition like the previous consumption tax, and the legislators had already understood the content of the proposal.

In fact, the various support measures in the "Proposal" have already been executed by the Film Association, and with the financial assistance of the Tree Friend Support Fund, this proposal, except for the Ministry of Labor having to allocate an extra budget and personnel, is considered icing on the cake for other departments...

Plus the persuasion activities conducted by Tree Friend and the Film Association before, as well as the positive publicity of the entertainment industry and media circles, except for some legislators who opposed for the sake of opposition, other legislators did not have much resentment.

Seeing the legislators pressing their votes on the voting machine, Naoki Nagayama and Shuichi Yin Tang and others in the gallery were a bit nervous...

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

The sound of the wooden hammer sounded again. In an ordinary session, Speaker of the House of Representatives Kenzaburo Hara didn't know how many hammers he would break.

"The voting results are out."

"325 votes in favor, 120 votes against, 20 abstentions..."

Speaker Kenzaburo Hara announced the result.

"The affirmative votes exceeded 2/3, the 'Film Industry Laborer Protection Proposal' was passed by vote, and sent to the House of Councillors for review!"

Proposals passed by the House of Representatives must be reviewed by the House of Councillors. This is a legal procedure. If the House of Councillors rejects it, the House of Representatives needs to vote again, and it must pass by a majority of more than 2/3 of the votes.

However, the House of Councillors generally will not disagree with such a proposal that has 2/3 support for the first time. The House of Councillors, represented by the nobility and old forces, actually only plays a role of icing on the cake~

So, the "Film Industry Laborer Rights Protection Proposal" actually passed from the moment Speaker Kenzaburo Hara dropped the hammer!!!

"Hahaha!"

The corners of Shuichi Yin Tang's mouth split into a flower, and he excitedly hugged Naoki Nagayama and Dayou Fangcun next to him~

Other relevant personnel who supported the "Proposal" and social celebrities also showed victorious smiles.

Even Naoki Nagayama was a bit excited... The proposal he put forward became the national policy of the island nation!

This is an incredible progress!

After stepping into the political arena, maybe he can rely on the film industry to influence more policy directions next~

At the same time, applause also came out in the conference hall of the House of Representatives.

All the legislators who voted in favor applauded... The media reporters who were recording captured this moment, the shutter sound clicked non-stop, and the flash was not lit.

What surprised Naoki Nagayama was that even Noboru Takeshita applauded with a smile... Did he also vote in favor?!

Still puzzled, Shuichi Yin Tang walked over and said happily:

"Naoki-san, let's go to Roppongi tonight!!!"

"We must celebrate well!!! Don't stop until we are drunk!"

"Haha, good good!" Naoki Nagayama naturally wouldn't spoil the fun at this time, "We also learn from a certain guy some time ago, book the club tonight!!"

"Haha, right, all consumption is recorded on..."

Shuichi Yin Tang's eyes were just about to look at Naoki Nagayama, but he was preempted by Naoki Nagayama.

"Naturally, it is recorded on Shuichi-san's account!"

"..... Naoki-san, you......"

"Hahaha, what's wrong, Shuichi-san is the main force of this 'Proposal'! Since we won..."

Naoki Nagayama smiled and patted Shuichi Yin Tang on the shoulder.

"Shouldn't this glory be shared from Shuichi-san here!"

"......"

Shuichi Yin Tang was caught in the conversation, rolled his eyes, and couldn't say anything, so he could only shake his head.

"Sigh... Naoki-san is really slippery... Alright, let's record it on my account!"

Afraid of having no money? That's impossible!

Joke, he Shuichi Yin Tang is also a billionaire!

He is the third richest person in the Tree Friend system besides Naoki Nagayama!

The second richest, naturally, is the president of a financial company who controls a certain capital... Dayou Fangcun is at most the fourth! ===== CHAPTER 1236 =====
