Chapter 214: Why do you call me Kanako-san, and she is Nana-chan?

~13 min read 2,440 words

A man who has just started a family, if he wants to come out to play, he will still bring his wife...

In a nightclub in Roppongi, Naoki Nagayama looked at the two people constantly sprinkling dog food, deeply regretting the previous decision.

"Genta-san, Suzumi-san, can't you two restrain yourself?"

The newlywed couple exuded a foul smell called happiness on their faces, and said very proudly: "Why restrain? We are still in the honeymoon period~"

"Doesn't the so-called honeymoon end after the honeymoon trip?" Naoki Nagayama drank the cocktail lightly, completely speechless to the two.

"Genta-san, have you returned to the bank to work normally?"

"That's for sure, but the business is very good now. I can complete the indicators by making a few calls every day, so I can come out to play under the name of visiting customers~"

Naoki Nagayama was shocked. Can it still be operated like this?

"Speaking of which, Naoki-san, do you want to consider our financial management project? Everything is making money now! It earns more than the real estate you invested in before!" Nakai Genta, who started talking about work, actually started to pull business.

"Hahaha, Genta-san is a qualified bankman." Naoki Nagayama laughed. "However, there is no idea of investment yet, and the funds themselves are not enough. After a year or two, I will start investing. At that time, I will ask Genta-san to operate for me~"

Real estate that makes money before 1985, enter the market at the end of 1984, just wait for the bubble to turn your assets dozens of times! Although the stock market is still good, there are times when it loses money.

"Hahaha, is that so, then I look forward to it!"

Nakai Genta knew that Naoki Nagayama was very stable and firm in investment. If there was a plan, he would definitely move towards that direction, so he knew that one or two years later was the time to truly take down this "customer".

"Dear, don't talk about work, let's ignore this single dog~" Hoshino Suzumi hugged Nakai Genta's arm and acted like a spoiled child. "Let's go dance~"

Tomato Novel

"Good, good, good." The husband on the other side had been eaten to death.

Looking at the figures of the two, Naoki Nagayama said disdainfully: "Qi, this Nakai Genta, he will be a henpecked husband in the future~"

The competition between nightclubs and clubs in Roppongi is very fierce. The nightclub called "Nightingale" that Naoki Nagayama came to today has a luxurious style of gold and jade. Gilded railings, smooth black marble floors, crystal chandeliers...

There is no band on the stage, only young ladies in cool clothes leading the rhythm, making people in the dance floor dance their bodies more wantonly.

The black and gold light intertwined, making people feel the wealth of the nightclub, and also created an atmosphere of dissipation.

Naoki Nagayama entered the dance floor while inspecting other details of the nightclub. After all, his disco is about to be renovated, so he has to learn from the strengths of his competitors.

This nightclub dances a collective dance, not dancing randomly. Coupled with the fact that Naoki Nagayama was just spinning in the corner of the dance floor, he didn't feel any lecherous hands, but this absent-minded appearance attracted the Nakai couple again.

"Naoki-san, what are you looking for here?" In the noisy music, Nakai Genta leaned into Naoki Nagayama's ear and roared, "Is there any single cute young lady? Hahaha~ Ah, Suzumi-chan, what are you doing!"

Not surprisingly, he was twisted on the waist by the newly promoted Mrs. Nakai.

Genta-san, never forget that you are a person who has started a family~

"Just looking at his renovation." Pulled the two back to the booth where the sound was smaller. "My disco is about to be renovated, learn from their experience."

"Isn't Naoki-san's disco very good? I really want to go play, why did it suddenly renovate?" Hoshino Suzumi asked puzzledly.

Of course, because the competition in the disco is too fierce. If you don't make changes, maybe the passenger flow of the disco will be less and less.

"The style of the disco is a bit outdated, and the attraction to young people is insufficient, so it was changed to a cyberpunk style." Naoki Nagayama continued, "I plan to renovate it once a year in the future, so that people who come to the disco can feel a sense of freshness."

"Eh~ it sounds very interesting~" Hoshino Suzumi said, "After opening, I must go and play."

Nakai Genta laughed while hooking Suzumi's shoulder on the side: "Let's go together~"

Can this still be endured?

Naoki Nagayama was very angry. He returned to the dance floor at the risk of being lecherous, and could only appreciate the young ladies on the stage to relieve his soul that was hurt.

In the middle of the night, Naoki Nagayama, who took a taxi, returned to Sanyingyuan and saw Eitaro who came to pick him up warmly. After squatting down and touching his dog's head,

"Eitaro, you didn't suffer a loss today, there is so much dog food!"

In the old house in Ueno, all the actors and staff of "Hachiko Monogatari" were present. Shuichi Ido stood in the middle of the crowd and shouted excitedly:

"Thanks to Minna-san's efforts, the filming of our movie is all completed!"

A burst of cheers erupted from the crowd. Shuichi Ido waited for the sound to gradually calm down, and then talked about the subsequent arrangements.

"Today, we have set a seat in a nearby high-end hotel, and we will have a wrap-up meal together in the evening!"

After packing up all the filming equipment in the old house and clearing the traces of filming, the keys were returned to the landlord, and the people in the crew got into the car separately and rushed to the high-end hotel.

Naoki Nagayama naturally took a car with Yoshimura Otomo and Shuichi Ido. The driver was naturally the old driver Yoshimura Otomo.

"Naoki-san, you have to vacate some time in the future!" Shuichi Ido said earnestly. "Movie editing is a very important job!"

"Hai, hai! I will remember." Naoki Nagayama was a bit helpless. Am I really so unreliable?

In fact, when editing a movie, although the director also has a script, how to express emotions, how to connect pictures, how to sublimate the theme, etc., all need to be adjusted while editing, so it is a very consuming process for an ordinary director.

However, Naoki Nagayama is a person who has watched movies in later generations, so he is very familiar with the whole process, and the previous two movies were also edited very smoothly because of this.

"Rest assured, Ido-san, the movie screen is already in my mind!"

This kind of middle-school tone made the other two don't know what to say.

It is a Japanese restaurant, tatami, low table, and the partition door between the three private rooms can also be removed to become a whole space.

No matter what kind of banquet it is in Japan, there are rigid rules. For example, this kind of celebration party, first of all, there must be someone, such as Shuichi Ido, who starts to say some "Thank you for coming here today, the intense filming process is finally over, everyone's efforts made the movie have wonderful pictures bl..."

Then it is "Let's raise a glass!"

With an order, it is a relaxing moment. Participants can drink, eat, chat, etc. with others.

Naoki Nagayama's table is a group of main actors, directors, producers, etc. Shinichi Chiba, Kanako Higuchi, and Nana Okada are all at this table.

Shuichi Ido and Yoshimura Otomo both know that Naoki Nagayama is a wine hero, so they naturally won't overestimate their abilities to tease him, so they drank with Masataka Komori, Masami Inada, and Shinichi Chiba.

And Naoki Nagayama, who had a drink, was not interested in drinking with a few alcoholics, so he chatted with Kanako Higuchi next to him while eating:

"Kanako-san, how is the new movie? Is it actually free to come to dinner?"

"After the other actor came, it went very smoothly, but this is an art film, and the requirements for time and state are relatively strict... so sometimes it is very empty."

Kanako Higuchi recalled the filming of the movie "Manji", and couldn't help but feel a bit shy. After all, the plot inside was too bold, homosexuality, heterosexuality, love triangles, love quadrangles, etc...

Hurriedly drank a few sips of wine to suppress the emotions in her heart.

"Oh, there are also such directors~" Naoki Nagayama remembered the situation where a certain director filmed a play for more than ten years. Sure enough, there are all kinds of people in the director group.

Then he asked Nana Okada who was further away: "Then Nana-chan? After filming this movie, are you going to rest for a while, or continue to join the group?"

If it weren't for the imprisonment, Nana Okada might still be the top national idol at this time, and there would be no choice in this regard.

However, at this time, the baby face was obviously hesitant: "Should try to be an actor~"

Naoki Nagayama just asked casually and didn't mean to go deep. However, looking at the girl's expression, he still comforted: "Nana-chan also has talent in acting, and will definitely become an excellent actor in the future!"

"Hai, arigato~ Naoki-san~"

The two were chatting here, but Kanako Higuchi suddenly interrupted: "Naoki-san, I found a problem! I have had questions for a long time!"

"Eh? What?" Looking at the flushed Kanako Higuchi, how much did this woman drink in such a while?

"Nana and I are the same age! Why call Nana 'chan', and call me 'san'?" After drinking, Kanako leaned slightly towards Naoki Nagayama's shoulder, squeezing Naoki Nagayama's position, with a different momentum~

"Ah, this... maybe Nana-chan has a baby face, which always makes people feel that she hasn't grown up?"

Naoki Nagayama straightened his body slightly and answered a bit uncomfortably. Kanako-san wore a off-the-shoulder dress, and the summer T-shirt couldn't block the soft touch on the shoulder.

"Then you mean I'm old?" Kanako Higuchi leaned closer, staring at Naoki Nagayama with threatening eyes.

"No... no such thing!" Of course, you can't talk nonsense at this time. "It's that your temperaments are different."

"Oh?" Even Nana Okada looked over curiously. At this time, she remembered that this Naoki-san in front of her was actually 3 years younger than herself, a proper younger brother.

"Kanako-san gives people a dignified and virtuous feeling, so calling her Kanako-chan always feels a bit wrong..." Naoki Nagayama racked his brains to think of countermeasures. "And Nana-chan gives people a very cute feeling, so call her Nana-chan."

"Humph, mature and dignified... isn't it just old!" Although she said so, Kanako still let go of Naoki Nagayama, obviously very satisfied with this evaluation.

And Nana Okada on the side, her baby face was red, and it was very cute, etc. There was no problem when fans said so before, but being said so by a young man in private made people very shy.

Naoki Nagayama breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, he fooled it. How can girls explain these details clearly?

"But Kanako-san gives people a feeling of being dignified and virtuous, so calling her Kanako-chan feels a bit wrong..." Naoki Nagayama racked his brains for a countermeasure, "Whereas Nana-chan gives people a very cute feeling, so calling her Nana-chan is fine."

"Hmph, mature and dignified... isn't that just a polite way of saying I'm old!" Although she said that, Kanako still let Naoki Nagayama off the hook; clearly, she was quite satisfied with this assessment.

Meanwhile, Nana Okada, standing to the side, had her doll-like face turn red. Being called "very cute" was fine when fans said it, but hearing it from a young man in private made her feel very shy.

Naoki Nagayama let out a sigh of relief; he had finally managed to muddle through. Why do girls have to be so clear about every little detail?

"Naoki-san, what are you talking about? You can't hide! Come and have a drink!"

Shinichi Chiba, standing nearby, was already red in the face. Seeing that Naoki Nagayama hadn't drunk much yet, he came over to offer a toast.

Had this guy not noticed that no one else was trying to outdrink him?

It seems you have no self-awareness regarding your own alcohol tolerance!

However, he also helped Naoki Nagayama escape the awkward atmosphere, so I suppose I won't force-feed you alcohol!

The celebratory banquet lasted until 9:00 PM. Most people were already tipsy, especially Shinichi Chiba, who was already drunk and muddled, while Naoki Nagayama only felt a slight dizziness in his head.

Some of the young people from the crew were planning to go to nightclubs and clubs to have fun, but Naoki Nagayama no longer had the interest. He asked the restaurant to call a designated driver, preparing to send the already-drunk Otomo Yoshimura and Xiu Yin Tang back.

After walking out of the restaurant, everyone dispersed in twos and threes. Kanako Higuchi and Nana Okada were also preparing to go home together. Although both had drunk a little, they were only flushed and were perfectly fine.

"Kanako-san, Nana-chan, do you really not need me to arrange for someone to take you back?" Naoki Nagayama asked at the entrance.

"Yes, we are completely sober now!" Kanako's eyes were bright; it seemed she was indeed fine and was preparing to hail a taxi.

"Oh, wait a moment, you two." Naoki Nagayama remembered something and hurried to Otomo Yoshimura's car to retrieve it.

Upon returning, he handed each of the two girls a book.

"Love Letter?" Nana Okada, whose head was a bit fuzzy, looked at the title, puzzled. What is this? Are you giving us a love letter? So straightforward?

"I got this from the publisher this morning. It's my new release; take it as a gift~" Naoki Nagayama smiled, "Please support it!"

"Eh? Naoki-san, you've published a book too?" Nana Okada was surprised!

"Hahaha, Naoki-san is capable of many things!" Kanako laughed from the side, "Nana-chan, come to my place today; I can tell you all about it~"

"Eh? Is that so?" Nana Okada was suddenly a bit flustered, but Kanako was holding onto her quite tightly!

None of them noticed that in a car not far from the restaurant, two people dressed in ordinary clothes were holding high-precision cameras and taking photo after photo.

"A huge harvest! Nana Okada, Kanako Higuchi, Naoki Nagayama..."
