Chapter 308: There is nothing you can't think of, there is nothing rich people can't do

~13 min read 2,462 words

Naoki Nagayama spent a lot of effort to make Tsuruko believe that this was just his accumulation and hair-thinning, and he had almost thought about it some time ago, and it was only written at this time.

Otherwise, Tsuruko might have exaggerated it in the phone call to mother to report safety...

After settling Tsuruko down, Naoki Nagayama went out. He still had to go to the studio in the afternoon. Otomo Yoshimura said there were some things to discuss.

After arriving at the studio, sure enough, Yin Tang-san also came here. Naoki Nagayama walked to his side helplessly:

"I say, Yin Tang-san, are you too diligent? You clearly gave the crew a holiday..."

Yin Tang-san looked at the documents in his hand without raising his head: "No way... I ran into a boss who loves to be lazy, so naturally the subordinates have to work harder~"

This sentence shouldn't be pointing at the mulberry and scolding the locust, right? No, no, Yin Tang-san is not such a poisonous tongue!

"Hahaha, Yin Tang-san is really good at joking~" Naoki Nagayama played haha with a thick skin, and changed the subject by the way. "What is Yin Tang-san looking at?"

Yin Tang-san didn't continue to be poisonous, but handed the document to Naoki Nagayama: "It's a resume, the company's manpower is not enough."

Naoki Nagayama took these documents and flipped through them slightly. They were all university students who were about to graduate, all in directing or photography majors.

"Eh? When did we participate in the corporate introduction meeting for university students? These are all university students who are going to graduate this year, right?"

"Of course it was some time ago..." Otomo Yoshimura on the other side couldn't help but reply, and there was a large stack of documents in his hand. "I have been to many universities!"

"Naoki-san should also pay attention to the company's affairs occasionally!"

"Souka..." Naoki Nagayama was filming during this time, but it didn't seem appropriate to use this as an excuse, because he didn't care much about the company's operations usually...

However, embarrassment is impossible. As long as he doesn't feel embarrassed, then the embarrassed is others!

"Otomo-san, I heard that if university students come to participate in interviews, they have to give very high gifts and travel expenses..."

Naoki Nagayama couldn't help but think of his good friend Genta Nakai's experience. When Naoki Nagayama was racking his brains to earn the first pot of gold, that guy was using this kind of gift to spend his days drinking and having fun, dashing like anything...

Who knew Otomo Yoshimura squinted: "Naoki-san, our company is not called Mitsubishi Group... The school we went to is not the University of Tokyo... And there are many resumes obtained from labor agencies."

Does this mean we are not worthy of others? Or others are not worthy of us... It's hard to understand~

Naoki Nagayama took another stack of resumes from Otomo Yoshimura's desk and flipped through them at will: "In short, is calling me over for this recruitment matter?"

"It's one of them. We are not a big company. The newcomers of the company naturally have to be seen by the president~" Otomo Yoshimura changed a stack of resumes that were obviously much shallower from his right hand. "Look at this stack, it has been screened once."

"There is one more thing, determine the recording time of Junko Ito's new single."

Ah, I just gave *Dislocated Time* to Junko Ito before, the fourth one really needs to start.

"This depends on Yin Tang-san~" Naoki Nagayama reminded Yin Tang-san on the side. "After all, if the director doesn't speak, how can we have a holiday~"

"I have time at other times~" It's just that I am very idle~

Yin Tang-san put down the resume in his hand slightly and looked at Naoki Nagayama: "Naoki-san, the scenes of Hanazawa Rui are not much left. After all, he is just a supporting role. You can find a day to ask for leave according to the filming plan."

Che... clearly said before that he couldn't do without his guidance as a screenwriter during filming, but now he says he is just a supporting role!

Naoki Nagayama didn't say much, but looked at the resume in his hand. These were candidates for the agency, and there was also a new label Rebellion to cooperate with Sony Records. Yutaka Ozaki also needed some manpower there.

"How come they are all university students without experience~" Naoki Nagayama flipped through them, the same grades, internship experience, etc. "Otomo-san, why not look for those experienced hands?"

Otomo Yoshimura rubbed his temples: "Naoki-san, it's not easy to find ready-made producers... People with certain abilities will not change jobs at will, and ordinary employees are meaningless to dig, so it's better to cultivate from scratch like this."

Naoki Nagayama didn't comment on such thoughts, but since Otomo Yoshimura, who was in charge, had such thoughts, he shouldn't say much, so he nodded and looked at them again, purely choosing candidates based on eye contact.

A name suddenly attracted Naoki Nagayama's attention, Tetsuya Komuro... This guy's resume came from a labor agency, and he had just disbanded from a band called SPEEDWAY, and was currently in a state of unemployment...

"This name... seems very familiar?"

For Japanese music producers, except for stars, Naoki Nagayama didn't know much, but this name seemed to have a certain influence.

Otomo Yoshimura heard Naoki Nagayama's muttering: "What's wrong? Did Naoki-san see someone you know?"

"Ah, no, it's just that this name seems very familiar." Naoki Nagayama explained, finding an excuse. "Maybe I heard the songs of this SPEEDWAY occasionally before..."

Otomo Yoshimura muttered: "SPEEDWAY, a band I haven't heard of~"

"Hahaha, look at the resume, it has disbanded."

"However, since it left an impression on Naoki-san, why not give him a chance." Otomo Yoshimura didn't care. "Speaking of which, people who play bands like this generally don't find jobs by submitting resumes like this, right? It's not cool at all~"

Where did he know that Tetsuya Komuro was currently in a period of disillusionment with ideals, the band full of expectations and passion disbanded because there were no results, feeling that he had achieved nothing in two years, and just wanted to find a job to spend his life plainly...

However, this type of guy, after the emo time passes, will still be unable to suppress the flames in his heart and try to start his own music career again.

"In short, let him go to Rebellion first. At least he is an experienced hand who understands record release and singer performance." Naoki Nagayama took out the resume.

"Hai." Otomo Yoshimura also agreed.

After reading this batch of resumes, Otomo Yoshimura moved a stack of unscreened ones from under the table, and Naoki Nagayama could only silently join the ranks of screening resumes...

Who said that workers in the Showa era don't worry about work! Isn't there so many people submitting resumes?!

After reading the resumes for almost an afternoon, and having to communicate with Otomo Yoshimura and Yin Tang-san from time to time, he couldn't be lazy at all.

In the end, only 10 resumes were passed. After the final interview, I don't know if half of them can remain.

However, he had already expressed his attitude. He would not participate in the interview. Otomo Yoshimura and Yin Tang-san would decide. Anyway, they would all work under them in the future~

Naoki Nagayama, who was walking on the way home, felt that his eyes were a bit blurred.

He didn't want to cook dinner today, so he just went to pack some.

The steering wheel turned, and he turned to the high-end restaurant he often went to. At least his sister was here, so he had to get something delicious to entertain her.

So on the dinner table of Shanyingyuan in the evening, Nagayama Tsuruko looked at the exquisite and good-looking high-end bento box on the table and swallowed a mouthful of saliva:

"Ni-chan, lobster, crab, abalone, tuna sushi, pine mushroom rice... Is this what you eat usually?"

"How is it possible?!" Naoki Nagayama immediately denied it, looking very serious. "Eating these always will get tired! So I will also go to eat some fresh seafood, Chinese food, French food, Italian food, Thai food, etc.!"

Even if she was stupid, Tsuruko heard the ridicule in her brother's words, and stuffed a piece of sushi into her mouth angrily.

"Just love to lie!"

"Clearly it's Tsuruko, you are too easy to lie to!"

Naoki Nagayama divided some pine mushroom rice into Eitaro's food bowl, and then added a few slices of abalone, making Tsuruko's eyes even more complicated.

Her brother's daily life is really too luxurious...

If Naoki Nagayama heard Tsuruko's inner voice, he would definitely disdain.

Tsuruko is still too young, doesn't know what real luxury is, using white whale caviar as bread sauce for meals, wrapping gold foil on desserts...

There is nothing you can't think of, there is nothing rich people can't do.

After dinner, Tsuruko honestly continued to go upstairs to review, while Naoki Nagayama sat in the living room watching TV. Eitaro ran directly to the sofa, hiding between his legs and the sofa, with a very tired expression. It seemed that he had been teased by Tsuruko all afternoon!

Naoki Nagayama touched the dog's head: "You've really worked hard, Eitaro~ However, in order for Tsuruko to have a good mood during this time and get a good grade in the exam, it will still be troublesome for you later~ I will add a meal for you!"

Eitaro didn't realize his master's bad intentions at all. However, the word "add a meal" aroused his interest because it was often said, and he licked Naoki Nagayama's hand happily~

The time at night passed continuously in the TV screen. A program telling strange customs in various parts of Japan attracted Naoki Nagayama's attention.

Suddenly, the phone next to him rang~ "Ding ling ling! Ding ling ling!"

Naoki Nagayama, who was startled, sighed. It's a pity that *Ring* was scheduled to be filmed at the end of the year, and others couldn't feel my pain for the time being...

"Moshi Moshi, this is Shanyingyuan."

"Naoki-san, it's Akina~" Nakamori Akina's happy voice came from the microphone.

"Ah, Akina~" Naoki Nagayama subconsciously looked at the wall clock. "You came back very early today, it's not even 10 o'clock."

"Hai, as soon as I came back, I heard Tsuruko-chan's message."

The microphone suddenly stalled. Maybe she realized that her clothes were left at Naoki Nagayama's house. It was a bit shy to talk about such a thing with Naoki-san, so she hurriedly changed the subject.

"Did Tsuruko-chan come to Tokyo?"

"Hai, Tsuruko is going to take the university entrance exam, so she will live in Shanyingyuan for a period of time." Naoki Nagayama didn't notice the change of topic and talked about the reason very normally.

【Recommend, change source app, chasing books is really easy to use, download here huanyuanapp. Everyone can try it.】

"Eh... Sure enough, Tsuruko is a top student, is she going to take the university exam?" Akina, a poor student, has always been respectful and fearful of top students.

"Yes, she has grown up unconsciously, and she is thinking about challenging the three most difficult private universities."

"Really amazing~"

Nakamori Akina talked about Tsuruko, actually in the tone of talking about a junior, clearly they are girls of about the same age, but Akina has already entered society, entered the colorful entertainment industry, and her psychology has grown a bit.

At this time, Akina was curled up on the sofa, while organizing her just-dried hair, while chatting with Naoki on the phone.

"Akina-san is also very amazing, isn't *1/2 Myth* already ranked first on the Oricon chart?"

"Hahaha, that's different. The results of this song are achieved by the efforts of many people, composers, Mina-san of the company..." Akina was a little embarrassed when she heard Naoki praise her like this. "I just happened to sing it out."

Naoki Nagayama insisted: "Without Akina's interpretation, this song would definitely not have such results!"

Being recognized like this, Akina was a little moved: "Naoki-san, don't praise me anymore..."

Then she used a move to shift the topic back to Naoki: "How is Naoki-san's *Hana Yori Dango* filming recently?"

"Uh... The filming process is very smooth, it's just that I was forced to dye an orange-yellow hair..." Naoki Nagayama said helplessly. "And the people in the crew recently started shipping the combination of the male second and the heroine."

Akina didn't hear the next sentence at all, but asked directly: "Did Naoki-san actually dye yellow hair? Did you become visual kei?"

"That's still a bit different..."

In this era, the Japanese punk is called visual kei band, which has been popular for not a short time. The signs are heavy and enchanting makeup, clothing and dressing that exceed ordinary people's understanding, self-pitying performance style, etc.

"At least I didn't hold a guitar and sing strange songs on the stage..." Naoki Nagayama joked about his own styling. "If that's the case, maybe someone would take a fancy to it and debut~"

Akina laughed on the sofa: "Hahaha, after being said so, I really want to see Naoki-san's yellow hair styling!"

Starting from the new styling, slowly chatting about recent schedule arrangements, the current situation of the company, etc., Naoki Nagayama was thinking about when to make an appointment to go out to play, when Tsuruko's footsteps came from the stairs, and then Tsuruko went downstairs.

"Ni-chan?"

Naoki Nagayama, who was still on the phone, saw it: "Tsuruko, I am on the phone with Akina, did I disturb your review?"

"No, just going to sleep, come to tell you..."

Looking at the wall clock, it was already past 11 o'clock. This phone call was too long...

"But is it Akina-chan?" Tsuruko walked straight over. "Is it because of the clothes?"

Ah, there is also the matter of clothes! Naoki Nagayama just remembered.

"Ah, by the way, there is this matter, Tsuruko, you talk to Akina~" Naoki Nagayama hurriedly said to Akina on the other side of the microphone. "Akina, Tsuruko has something to tell you~"

"Ah~ Hai~"

Moved a seat, gave the microphone to Tsuruko, and the innocent Eitaro was clamped by Tsuruko by her legs again.

"Ni-chan, you go to sleep, Akina-chan and I still have to chat for a long time!"

Naoki Nagayama could only remind him not painfully or itchily: "Akina is very busy, you have to rest well and prepare for the exam!"

"Alright, alright, as nagging as Oka-san..."

After finishing speaking, she talked to Akina with eyebrows dancing~
