Chapter 345

Entering the middle of April,

Fuji TV's "Hana Yori Dango" had been broadcast to the fourth episode, causing quite a topic among young people.

The exaggerated manga-adapted style was just right in the TV series, the plot logic was also very rigorous, and the interactions between the four male leads and one female lead were very interesting, especially the punch that the female lead Tsukushi gave to the male lead Tsukasa Domyoji at the beginning, which made people call it satisfying.

Discussions on campus also started to pair up the CP of Tsukushi and Tsukasa Domyoji with the CP of Tsukushi and Rui Hanazawa. The two sides argued endlessly. The phone calls and letters sent to the TV station after each broadcast showed the popularity of the TV series.

This golden time slot of Fuji TV could be said to have achieved great success.

Tsuruko had been very happy during this time, but she was a little troubled when chatting with friends.

Because she had already finished watching the entire series of "Hana Yori Dango", while her friends were excitedly discussing the content of the first four episodes, which made her very painful when chatting... She couldn't spoil it, and could only echo her friends' discussion about who the female lead Tsukushi would choose.

Tsuruko wanted to shout in her heart at that time: "Don't guess randomly, she chooses Tsukasa Domyoji!"

But in the end, she could only say nothing...

Just when the audience thought "Hana Yori Dango" was the best TV series in the spring, the late-night slot of TV Tokyo quietly launched another manga-adapted drama—"Cat's Eye".

As an ordinary worker in Tokyo, Ryogi Yamaguchi always had to accompany his boss to an izakaya for a drink after work. Sometimes he was persuaded to drink until he was dizzy, and sometimes he was still very sober like today.

After a day of fatigue, Ryogi Yamaguchi could only catch his breath during the short time he watched TV before going to bed.

However, ever since the idol group he once liked disbanded, all variety shows and TV series had become tools to kill time.

"At this time, what else is there to watch?"

Ryogi Yamaguchi was changing channels on the small TV in his apartment. At this time, only late-night TV series were left.

"It seems "Tales of the Unusual" has already finished broadcasting."

He was thinking in his heart, his eyes looking at the TV screen, but it seemed unfocused. In the day-to-day routine, this was just mechanical body memory.

"Meow~"

A cat's cry startled him. He lived on the 7th floor, how could he still hear a cat's cry?

Coming back to his senses, he found that the TV screen had started playing the opening of "Cat's Eye".

In the city under the night, three art thieves dressed in tight leather clothes, wearing cat-ear hair accessories and eye masks, were looming in the light and shadow. When they took off their masks, Ryogi Yamaguchi's long-dormant heart suddenly shrank.

"This is?"

Looking at the familiar beautiful faces, and then seeing the enchanting and mysterious cat suits, Ryogi Yamaguchi only felt a heat wave surging from his heart to his head, making his cheeks, which had been drinking, flushed.

"This is the Wild Cat Group!"

Ryogi Yamaguchi only felt his eyes were about to get wet.

Ever since he saw the cat dance of the Wild Cat Group one night two years ago, he had become their loyal fan, and even desperately bought the important souvenirs with the first 1000 numbers of the cat-ear hair accessories.

However, when the Wild Cat Group's trend was rising, for some reason, they were suddenly shelved, and even the fan club was disbanded.

Although he occasionally saw news about the members on TV afterwards, they had all lost the inheritance of the Wild Cat Group and became ordinary artists...

This loyal Wild Cat fan also lost his idol in his heart at once, and fell back into a working machine without soul and passion.

However, in this "Cat's Eye", the face of the Wild Cat Group, Mikiya Ohno, the sexy one, Fisa Akiyama, and the dance one, Ayano Katagiri, were all back!

Although they were not the cute-style cats, the sexy cats in tight leather clothes were completely OK!

Even more attractive than before!

Ryogi Yamaguchi's eyes glowed, and he immediately found a number from the phone book, dialed the phone at hand, and contacted his colleague, who was also the former president of the Wild Cat Group fan club:

"Moxi Moxi, this is the Akita family."

"Kazunori-san! Big event, the Wild Cat Group is back! Transformed into the Cat's Eye sisters!"

"? Ryogi-san, you've had too much to drink, right?"

"Kazunori-san! Hurry up and turn on the TV, TV Tokyo! It's playing!"

"Hondo ga?"

Kazunori Akita, under the urging of Ryogi Yamaguchi, turned on the TV with half-belief, and just happened to see the scene of the Cat's Eye sisters disappearing into the smoke, and a signature sound—"Meow~"

It's true!

When the two TV series in Tokyo were spreading exponentially, the people behind the two TV series had already arrived in Los Angeles.

Los Angeles in April was just at the time when it was cold and warm. When Naoki Nagayama arrived, it was already night. The whistling sea breeze blew on his thin clothes, making him shiver.

He hurriedly took a taxi to the booked hotel, still the Millennium Hotel. The high-end hotel he had been to once had already recorded the guest's preferences, and this time directly left Naoki Nagayama a room facing the sun with a balcony.

When Naoki Nagayama finished checking in and took a shower in the guest room, a delicate ramen had already been made by the hotel chef and sent to the room.

Dumplings when getting on the car, noodles when getting off the car. He had just gotten off the plane, so it could be considered getting off the car.

In short, after enjoying it, touching his warm stomach, Naoki Nagayama leaned on the sofa and called Tokyo.

"Hai, I've arrived. No accidents..." The first call was naturally to report safety to his family, and then he hung up the phone amidst his mother's instructions to take care of his health, and then called the studio. It was morning work time in Tokyo at this time.

"Moxi Moxi, this is Shuyou Film." Fangcun Dayou was indeed in the office.

"Dayou-san, this is Naoki Nagayama."

"Ah, has Naoki-san arrived? Is everything going well?"

"Hmm, going well~ This phone number is my phone number in Los Angeles, currently at the Millennium Hotel." Naoki Nagayama explained his situation a little, and then asked.

"Speaking of which, Dayou-san, I forgot to contact Kadokawa, and I don't have their contact information."

"Kadokawa?"

"Hai, didn't we say we would attend the Oscar awards ceremony together? Someone from there would also come." The itinerary for attending the Oscar awards ceremony was all handled by Kadokawa, but Naoki Nagayama didn't team up with them to come over, and actually forgot to communicate with them.

"Please help me ask Kadokawa's contact person~"

"Hai, I understand~"

It wasn't a big deal, and he agreed very readily. Just when Naoki Nagayama was about to hang up the phone, Fangcun Dayou said a sentence:

"Naoki-san, recently the songs of Yuki-chan and Junko-chan have had very good sales. We plan to exert effort at various music awards to let their songs get more honors. What do you think?"

"This is of course fine~" Naoki Nagayama didn't even think about it. "It's best if they can win awards at the FNS Music Festival and the Japan Record Awards at the end of the year~"

"Hahaha, that's good, then Naoki-san must also be there to cheer!"

"Of course! Obliged!" Naoki Nagayama also agreed very readily.

After hanging up the phone, Naoki Nagayama felt a little strange. Why did he have to tell me specifically about such things as winning awards? Clearly, Fangcun Dayou could just handle it directly~

Maybe it was just a symbolic inquiry. Naoki Nagayama couldn't think of anything wrong, and coupled with the fact that he had been on a plane for more than ten hours, he was also very tired, so he went to sleep directly.

And on the Tokyo side, after Fangcun Dayou hung up the phone, he laughed at Yin Tangxiu beside him: "He agreed!"

"Ha! It's good that he agreed!" Yin Tangxiu showed a smile. "It's a pity that our previous few movies didn't actively participate in the award selection, otherwise we could have added them too."

"Xiu-san, it's enough. There are so many music awards in Japan. If you participate in them one by one, you will have to run around for at least a month, plus the three major music awards at the end of the year, Naoki-san will be very busy when he comes back~" Fangcun Dayou said slowly.

"However, will Naoki-san be angry when he comes back?"

"What's there to be angry about? Haven't we already asked for his opinion?" Fangcun Dayou said stiffly. "Naoki-san said it himself, obliged!"

Yin Tangxiu laughed heartily: "Hahaha, since Dayou-san said so, I'm relieved. I'm going to film a TV series, so I'll take my leave first. Dayou-san, ganbatte!"

"Xiu-san, don't think about running away!" Fangcun Dayou said indignantly. "The two of us are grasshoppers on the same rope for this matter!"

After a good night's sleep, Naoki Nagayama, who was woken up by the sun, almost forgot that he was already abroad, and shouted Eitaro twice.

Looking at the different scenery outside the balcony, Naoki Nagayama then reacted.

"So I'm already in Los Angeles..."

Ordering breakfast, just as he was thinking about what to do today, the phone in the guest room rang.

"Good morning, Mr. William, this is the hotel front desk." The voice of the front desk lady was in the receiver. "We have a Mr. Isao Morikawa here who wants to visit you. May I ask?"

"Isao Morikawa?" How did he come? Could it be that he is the one attending the Oscars with me this time? "Okay, please let him come up."

"Okay~"

After waiting for a while, he didn't expect breakfast to be sent up first. Naoki Nagayama waited for a while before waiting for Isao Morikawa.

"President Nagayama, good morning!"

"Morning, Department Head Morikawa, I didn't expect you to come to Los Angeles too! It was Dayou-san who contacted Kadokawa yesterday, right."

"Hai, the company's Staff called me yesterday, and I learned that President Nagayama had already arrived in Los Angeles. It happened to be not far from our hotel, so I came over myself."

Naoki Nagayama welcomed the person into the living room: "It looks like Department Head Morikawa is attending the awards ceremony with me this time, right?"

"Yes, actually there is one more person, our President Haruki Kadokawa."

"Eh, has Haruki-san also come?" Naoki Nagayama was surprised, and then understood. As a global film event like the Oscars, as the president of a film company and a film producer, it was normal to come and participate.

"Hai, the president is currently... playing on the beach... Knowing that President Nagayama has arrived, he asked me to come and pick you up."

Aha, this playboy middle-aged son, he really couldn't be idle.

"So that's it~" Naoki Nagayama nodded. "Then I'll visit him later. By the way, Department Head Morikawa, have you eaten breakfast?"

"Hai, I ate before coming over~"

"Then wait for me a little bit."

Naoki Nagayama looked at Isao Morikawa's respectful appearance and didn't say much.

Although he was usually approachable in the studio and had a good relationship with the company's staff, outside, Naoki Nagayama was already a well-known director, well-known screenwriter, well-known lyricist, and writer in the film industry, and also owned a company with a very obvious upward trend. He was no longer a small person.

Maybe he was still a seedling in front of the industry big shots, but in the eyes of a department head of a film company like Isao Morikawa, he was already an industry newcomer, at least someone who could talk and laugh with their own president.

There wasn't much in the Western-style breakfast, a few croissants, sausages and bacon, fruit, plus a fried egg and a glass of orange juice, and it was all set.

Naoki Nagayama asked Isao Morikawa about the arrangements for the next few days while eating.

"The awards ceremony is in two days, at the Los Angeles Music Center. We will arrange a special car to pick you up then." Isao Morikawa introduced the process. "President Nagayama and our president will sit in the fifth row..."

After finishing breakfast, Naoki Nagayama followed Isao Morikawa to Santa Monica Beach to find Haruki Kadokawa.

"Morikawa-san, how many times have you been to Los Angeles?"

Naoki Nagayama, who had changed into big shorts and a floral shirt, sat in a yellow taxi and chatted with the person beside him. Isao Morikawa also relaxed a lot.

"Well, I've been here many times for official business, and I've been here once or twice for vacation. In general, I've been here more than ten times."

"Then you are very familiar with this place? Have you been to Disneyland?"

"I've been there once with my children~" Isao Morikawa asked back, "What about Naoki-san?"

"Ah, for me, this is the second time." Naoki Nagayama remembered the experience of meeting Akina here last year. "As for Disneyland, I've also been there with friends."

"Naoki-san, speaking of which, Tokyo Disneyland is also about to open."

"Hai, it seems to be during this time."

In the chat between the two, the taxi soon arrived at a pier next to the beach, and then Isao Morikawa took Naoki Nagayama along the pier's trestle bridge and walked directly to a boat that looked very lively in the distance.

"Morikawa-san, did Haruki-san rent a luxury yacht?"

"Haha, Naoki-san, this is not rented, this is Haruki-san's yacht."

Looking at this three-story white giant in front of him, Naoki Nagayama was a little shocked. "This is too exaggerated~"

Sure enough, the guy born with a golden key played very openly. Compared with a newcomer like Naoki Nagayama, the degree of wealth was not at the same level.

Although Naoki Nagayama could also afford it, as soon as he thought that he couldn't play a few times a year, and had to take care of it often, and it would depreciate every year, his heart, which had just jumped out of poverty, felt pain. It was better to buy real estate, antiques, and stocks, which were assets that would continue to appreciate.

This kind of big toy, let's forget it for now~

"Our president likes to travel on the sea, so he has boats in several famous tourist attractions."

Isao Morikawa also had envy in his eyes. "Naoki-san, let's go up. Haruki-san also called a few friends today, planning to have a sea party."

"Okay~"

Playing with a playboy, could it be another rich second generation or noble son?
