Chapter 1338: How about calling him Prince Shotoku? I guarantee everyone will like it!!

After dinner, the family rested on the sofa in the living room, and the heating in the room made people a bit sleepy.

The soap opera was playing on the TV, which Mingcai watched with great interest, while little Xia Hua, who was leaning in her arms, didn't know if she understood it, but she was watching with wide eyes...

At this time, Naoki Nagayama, although his body was also in Shanyingyuan, his mind had long returned to the editing room of the Tree Friend building.

The editing work of this 'Jurassic Park' is a bit different from the editing of other movies before. Other movies only need to be filmed and edited directly according to the shots in his mind, which is very fast and convenient for him.

And this movie, although there are shots in his head, many special effects shots still need him to work with the editing and special effects team to present them...

He had already thought that if he wanted to make a full special effects movie like Marvel movies in the future, even if his head was full of pictures, it would be impossible to rely on him alone to make it!

In that case, the advantage of core competitiveness would be much smaller!

But soon, Naoki Nagayama figured it out; he still has other "money-power" abilities!

"So... the construction of the special effects team must be accelerated!"

"In the future, I can let a whole special effects group help me realize the effect!!"

After figuring it out, Naoki Nagayama's mind returned.

He looked at Mingcai and Xia Hua beside him. But he found that at some point, little Xia Hua's attention was completely attracted by Mingcai's increasingly large belly, and she was carefully touching it with her hand...

Seeing Naoki Nagayama looking at her, she asked:

"Before... I... in the belly?"

"Mm..." Naoki Nagayama nodded, "Stayed for ten months!"

"Don't remember?!"

Naoki Nagayama looked at the little one who was a bit ignorant, and had the intention to tease the child:

"Then does Hua-chan remember where you were before coming to this house?!"

"?"

"That is before Hua-chan came here..."

Naoki Nagayama reached out and gestured around the living room, then continued to ask,

"Before seeing Dad and Mom..."

The little one's eyebrows wrinkled, and she tried very hard to recall, as if she was retrieving prehistoric data from her little brain.

Mingcai was originally watching the fun, watching her husband teasing the baby, but seeing the little one trying so hard, she wanted to comfort her:

"Hua-chan, it doesn't matter if you don't remember..."

Where did she know that at this moment little Xia Hua said:

"In a dark place! Wrapped in hot water..."

Naoki Nagayama was stunned, and then hurriedly went to find the camera to record what she just said! This is little Xia Hua's earliest memoir! Maybe she will forget it completely when she grows up!

Mingcai beside her also opened her mouth in surprise... holding the little one's face with both hands and looking around:

"Naoki-san, can children remember things so early?"

"Don't know... anyway, I don't remember..."

Naoki Nagayama shook his head, using the camera to tease little Xia Hua to make her say it again... Even his memory of his previous life seemed to start from the age of five... before that, it was like a chaos~

After a busy time, Naoki Nagayama finally recorded this meaningful picture.

Then he saw Mingcai holding the little one with a full face of smiles:

"Naoki-san, maybe our Hua-chan inherited your brain, maybe she will be a genius in the future!"

Having such a good memory at such a young age, Mingcai naturally attributed everything to her genius husband. Anyway, she knew that she could probably only pass on good singing skills or appearance to Hua-chan~

"How can such a small child say for sure!"

As soon as this word came out, he felt Mingcai's threatening eyes, and Naoki Nagayama immediately changed his words,

"However, being able to remember before birth seems to indicate that Hua-chan is different!"

"Of course!"

Mingcai kissed her daughter,

"Our Hua-chan will definitely be very smart in the future!"

"Mm!"

Little Xia Hua also nodded in agreement, making Mingcai even happier!

Then she stroked her belly again:

"And the younger brother, will definitely inherit Naoki-san's wisdom and my appearance!"

"........" Naoki Nagayama was speechless, "It hasn't been determined if it's a boy or girl..."

"It must be a younger brother! I have a premonition!"

Mingcai had an obsession with giving birth to a boy for Naoki Nagayama. After being disciplined by traditional culture for so many years, it is difficult for Nihon people not to value boys over girls.

"Alright, alright... we'll know when we go for a checkup tomorrow..."

At the same time, it was still broad daylight in New York.

Genta Nakai in Manhattan met David Lu De, the chairman of the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission, again in his apartment.

"Mr. Nakai, so many days have passed... have you considered my previous proposal?!"

Although David Lu De tried his best to appear light and breezy on the surface, his behavior of coming to the apartment continuously exposed his inner anxiety!

In order to figure out the cause of "Black Monday" and prevent such stock market crash problems, under the promotion of the President, the "President's Working Group on Financial Markets" was about to be established.

This working group is chaired by the Secretary of the Treasury, and its members include people from the Federal Reserve, the heads of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, and a large number of financial market experts.

David Lu De is naturally one of them, and as the person directly responsible for the stock market crash, he has an important responsibility for the reconstruction of the stock market and the restoration of market confidence.

And at this time, many large U. S. companies responded actively, but venture capital funds were all watching, especially the accusations against Tree Friend Capital made them feel a bit of sympathy for their own kind... not to mention the support of Nihon capital, they even thought that the United States did not welcome Nihon's investment.

Naoki Nagayama's prophecy and his operation in Nihon were regarded as an investment genius in the Nihon financial circle, and even the Financial Services Agency was very concerned...

"Mr. Lu De."

Genta Nakai was very peaceful at this time. He made hot tea for David Lu De,

"According to the instructions from Nihon, our Tree Friend Capital may not accept your settlement agreement..."

"Why?!!"

David Lu De was very surprised. In his view, the settlement money and the conditions for increasing independent directors were already very generous.

"We don't think the previous operation was manipulating the stock market, nor are we willing to pay settlement money!"

Genta Nakai said,

"Tree Friend Capital is a private investment company and doesn't want to accept the supervision of external directors."

David Lu De immediately said:

"But this kind of independent director is a routine operation for every U. S. stock company, to ensure the legality of company funds and also to ensure the rights and interests of shareholders..."

"We are not listed..." Genta Nakai shrugged, "Besides, the only major shareholder is Naoki Nagayama... Mr. Naoki Nagayama doesn't like others monitoring his money!"

"......."

David Lu De was speechless for a while, but he quickly changed the subject, his tone carrying a threat,

"If you don't agree to the settlement, the subsequent litigation process will be very long! Anything can happen during this period!"

"The United States is a free and democratic country; I believe in the justice of your country's judicial system!"

Genta Nakai first said righteously, and then immediately whispered,

"David, I know you now hope that the economy will recover early... hope that all the stumbling blocks will disappear..."

"But such a settlement is a stain and a shame for me and for Mr. Naoki!"

"You don't know the character of Nihon people; we won't accept this kind of shame!"

David Lu De is a traditional Wall Street elite in the United States. He really doesn't know much about Asians... but in his impression, shouldn't Japanese-Americans all be very polite and submissive?!

How did this guy suddenly become so tough?!

Ah! That's it!

Nihon's economy is taking off, while the U. S. economy is declining!!

This gave Nihon confidence!

"Mr. Nakai... I hope you won't regret this decision!"

David Lu De stood up angrily,

"Next time, there won't be such good conditions!"

"No... it will be better!"

Genta Nakai had a smile on his face,

"Wait until the Nihon Prime Minister visits the United States, wait until a further cooperation agreement is reached with your country's President... wait until the United States needs Nihon more!"

"You will withdraw the lawsuit!"

"Impossible!!!"

David Lu De left a sentence angrily and turned away, leaving only the door that was closed with force~

"Let's wait and see!"

Genta Nakai said this sentence softly.

After David Lu De's figure disappeared outside the door, Genta Nakai breathed a sigh of relief, and then clenched his fists and waved them hard in the air...

The feeling just now was truly too cool!!

Being trapped in New York for a small half-year, this resentment was vented for the most part!!

Actually, when Naoki Nagayama called him to say it, he was still a bit uneasy. Now seeing David Lu De so anxious, he also understood that the U. S. side was also facing great pressure, and people like David Lu De were under even more pressure.

Plus Naoki-san said that the newly appointed Prime Minister would mention Tree Friend Capital during the visit, which would undoubtedly put greater pressure on those who promoted the indictment~

The President of this era is not some king; he is still a relatively traditional politician who cares more about face and reputation!

"Next, notify the legal team to delay the litigation process!"

Genta Nakai thought about the next steps to increase his advantage

"Find lobbyists in the U. S. political arena to let politicians know that in the general trend of closer alliance relations, targeting Nihon capital is a thankless task..."

"Now the United States needs Nihon!"

Genta Nakai calculated silently. According to Naoki Nagayama's statement, he would probably be able to return to Nihon in a month or two!

"By then, it will be just in time for the cherry blossoms in the hometown to bloom!"

Early the next morning, because they said at the dinner table that they were going to the hospital for a checkup, little Xia Hua started crying early in the morning.

Even though Naoki Nagayama and Mingcai were both saying that Mom was going for a checkup and not for an injection, she grabbed Yingtailang's ears and refused to let go.

At this age, the little one's grip strength was already very large. Yingtailang was grabbed by the ears and twisted his head in a hurry but didn't get away... but in the end, he could only cry out to Naoki Nagayama for help.

Under such circumstances, Naoki Nagayama and Mingcai had to compromise:

"Alright, alright, Hua-chan is not going, okay?!"

"Yes, yes, let go of Yingtailang quickly... he's about to cry!"

The two persuaded her one after another, and only then did the little one let go. Yingtailang slipped away without a trace!

Finally, looking at the daughter who was still sobbing, Naoki Nagayama had to say to the nanny Ye Zhongmoli:

"Moli-san, it seems that Hua-chan can only stay at home..."

Ye Zhongmoli nodded with a smile:

"Hai, daijobu, I will take good care of Hua-chan!"

She had been taking care of Hua-chan since she was a child, and Naoki Nagayama and Mingcai wouldn't be worried.

"Mingcai's checkup won't be too long, probably..."

Naoki Nagayama said while looking at Mingcai,

"Does Mingcai want to go out and relax?"

"No!" Mingcai wiped little Xia Hua's face clean and replied, "No makeup, and the clothes are not good-looking... it's better to raise the baby at home at this time!"

When going for a prenatal checkup, they all wear loose clothes~

"Good... then it will probably be back in two hours!" Naoki Nagayama finished and squatted down to look at little Xia Hua, "Hua-chan, is it okay to stay at home for two hours?!"

"Okay!"

The little one nodded unexpectedly. The determination not to go to the hospital was evident!

"Alright~"

Without little Xia Hua, it was more convenient for the couple to go out... they put on down jackets directly and drove the Toyota Century to the Tokyo Women's Medical University.

Because they had given birth to the baby in this hospital before, Mingcai was very familiar with it and found her attending physician, Zhuji Dayuan, directly.

"Zhuji-san!"

There were not many people in the private hospital, Mingcai greeted Zhuji Dayuan very familiarly,

"Troubling you again!"

"It's Mingcai-san!"

Already at the age of an aunt, but Zhuji Dayuan's eyebrows were very gentle, and she was full of smiles after seeing Mingcai,

"Naoki-san is here too this time!"

"Hai..." Naoki Nagayama nodded. He hadn't come together when filming on Jurassic Island before, "Not so busy recently..."

"Mm-hmm..."

Zhuji Dayuan chatted with Mingcai for a few words, and then began to do a checkup for Mingcai step by step.

Then, at the most important ultrasound examination stage, Mingcai, who was lying on the bed, asked very nervously:

"Zhuji-san... can you tell?!"

"Ah... it can be determined!"

Zhuji Dayuan nodded, looking at the expectant Mingcai and the relatively calm Naoki Nagayama beside her, and said,

"It's a boy!"

Hearing this, a smile immediately appeared on Mingcai's face, and the look she gave Naoki Nagayama was full of pride:

"Naoki-san, it's a boy!!"

"Mm!" Naoki Nagayama held Mingcai's hand, "I know!"

"I said before that the feeling of being pregnant is different from Hua-chan!"

"Mm-hmm..."

Looking at the excited Mingcai and the relatively calm Naoki Nagayama on the side, Zhuji Dayuan asked curiously:

"Do Mingcai-san and Naoki-san like boys more?!"

"No!"

Naoki Nagayama shook his head,

"I'm the same!"

But Mingcai laughed and directly punctured it:

"Naoki-san likes daughters more! He's a daughter-slave!!!"

"But I want to give birth to a son! The Nagayama family originally had more genes for boys!"

Speaking of which, on the Zhongsen family side, it seems that men and women are more balanced... although there are many girls, the situation is better than the Nagayama family's generation...

After knowing it was a boy, Mingcai was in a very happy mood and kept talking during the subsequent checkups.

Until leaving the hospital, she was still saying in the car:

"Naoki-san, the boy's name must be chosen well!"

"Mm-hmm..."

Naoki Nagayama began to think. The next generation of the Nagayama family seems to have been determined to be named after flowers and plants... his son also needs to use herbaceous plants...

At this time, Mingcai spoke again:

"Can't use shrubs, wild flowers, wild grass, etc.!!"

"Uh... but this is already an unspoken rule..."

Naoki Nagayama said,

"Wild grass, Dongwu, etc., have all been used... and Hua-chan and Baihe-chan..."

"I don't care, my son can't be wild grass or wild flowers!!!"

Mingcai appeared very stubborn at this time,

"His name must be gentle and elegant, have high moral character, be dignified and atmospheric, and represent beautiful wishes... it must sound good!!! Make people like it as soon as they hear it!"

Naoki Nagayama was a bit speechless:

"......."

"Where is there such a good name... how about calling him Prince Shotoku?! I guarantee everyone will like it!!"

"Naoki-san, you... I don't care!"

Mingcai stared at her husband,

"Isn't Naoki-san a great writer?! Hurry up and think for me!!"

"......."

Naoki Nagayama felt that Mingcai was not very rational at this time, so he decided not to go against her...

"Alright, alright... I have to think about this carefully!!! And I have to refer to the 'Cihai' dictionary... I can't give it out immediately!"

Mingcai was satisfied:

"Daijobu, there are still half a year to think! Naoki-san, work hard!"

"....."

"If you don't name it well, I'll make you look good!"

Looking at Mingcai's threatening look, Naoki Nagayama could only continue to drive silently...
