Chapter 469

Chikako Aoyama was not coming to Fuji TV for the first time, and even Takeharu Kawahara, who sent her, was familiar with the Fuji TV building.

"Chikako-chan, *Night HIT* rehearsal is at 4:00 PM, half an hour left."

Takeharu Kawahara took out a small workbook from his pocket and said after checking the schedule. As a newly started agent, he still couldn't remember the artist's schedule by heart.

"Yes, I know. Arigato."

After more than half a month of training and experience, Chikako Aoyama initially had some temperament of an idol artist. Even when dealing with acquaintances, she responded very gently and politely.

In the process of dealing with so many artists in the entertainment industry, she found that almost everyone in this line was a human essence, speaking nicely, especially female artists, the business face on their faces was almost standard, so she slowly changed in this direction...

"Hmm, then let's go, arriving early will show more respect for the program." Takeharu Kawahara didn't talk too much, leading Chikako Aoyama to the studio in front.

*Night HIT* is a program of nearly an hour, from joint singing to later interviews, singing, finale, etc., so it needs to be rehearsed in advance.

Today's hosts are Jun Inoue and Mari Yoshimura. The two naturally came to the studio very early and began to study the program flow sheet given by the on-site director.

Just at this time, Chikako Aoyama walked in, smiling and greeting the staff. Seeing the two, she hurriedly walked over:

"Good afternoon, Inoue-san, Yoshimura-san."

"Ah, it's Chikako-san, good afternoon." Jun Inoue greeted this newly promoted idol very gently. "Is this your first time participating in *Night HIT* today?"

"Yes, so there are many things I don't understand, please give me more guidance!" Chikako Aoyama bowed and signaled very politely.

"Hahaha, of course no problem! Being asked by such a cute Chikako-san, I will definitely take good care of you!" Jun Inoue laughed while pulling Mari Yoshimura beside him to joke. "Mari-san, you must also take good care of her~"

"That's for sure~" Mari Yoshimura also smiled very gently.

"Arigato~" After Chikako Aoyama thanked them and chatted for a few words, she went to find other guests she knew.

After Chikako Aoyama left, the two who were originally looking at the script on the stage chatted in a low voice.

Mari Yoshimura collected the smile on her face a little, and looked at Jun Inoue with some incomprehension: "Inoue-san, are you very familiar with Chikako Aoyama?"

"A few meetings, the same as Mari-san." Jun Inoue took his eyes back from the guest side.

"Then why does it feel very..."

"Enthusiastic, right?" Jun Inoue didn't care. Speaking human words when seeing humans and ghost words when seeing ghosts in the entertainment industry is the basic skill of a host. He raised the script. "Look at this program order."

"? What's wrong?" Mari Yoshimura didn't find anything unusual for a while.

"Chikako Aoyama is just a pure newcomer, but she is the finale when singing!" Jun Inoue reminded. "I heard from people before that this was decided by the Fuji TV production department asking the *Night HIT* producer!"

"Oh? If you say so, Chikako Aoyama has..."

"It is said that she is a new idol strongly supported by Naoki Nagayama, but it should also have a relationship with Fuji TV..." Jun Inoue said not very surely. "In short, she is a new idol with a very hard background."

Because the program *Twilight Nyan Nyan* is currently only among a few planners, it is still in a state of confidentiality, let alone the resource exchange and cooperation inside, it is originally an unspoken rule that cannot be broken.

"In a word, there will be nothing wrong with making friends." Being a host in the entertainment industry requires being smooth and slick.

When Akina Nakamori arrived at Fuji TV, it was ten minutes before the rehearsal.

The top idol in convenient attire walked into the *Night HIT* studio familiarly. Although she was said by the media to be arrogant and ignoring people, Akina Nakamori herself was still very polite and greeted the staff and guests.

However, among them, she met a girl she didn't know:

"Sumimasen, nice to meet you, I am Chikako Aoyama."

Subconsciously replied: "Ah, nice to meet you, I am Akina Nakamori."

Akina Nakamori looked at the bright girl in front of her, with clear eyebrows, deep eyes, a straight mountain root, and full lips. The whole face was heroic and agile, making people impressive at a glance.

Yabai! She is a strong enemy!

Looking down... Akina Nakamori immediately despised her in her heart: "Chi, what a sexy figure!"

But thinking about it, her eyebrows immediately relaxed, and she is not bad either! When she debuted, she was also called "a milky white girl with sexual meaning"~

A title she didn't like very much, I don't know why it suddenly became acceptable at this time...

"Akina-san! I am your fan!"

Chikako Aoyama didn't have so many thoughts in her heart. For this idol who stood at the top of the idol pyramid one year after her debut, she was very respectful and loved.

"Eh? Really?" Akina Nakamori was a little surprised, but still smiled and chatted with her.

"Yes, I have been paying attention since Akina-san debuted, I have bought every album of Akina-san!" Chikako Aoyama said to Akina Nakamori a little excitedly. "Akina-san is really too handsome!"

"Haha, then thank you for Chikako-san's support~" Akina Nakamori's face was bright with a smile. "Chikako-san knew me from the program *Star! Birth! *, right?"

"No!" Unexpectedly, Chikako Aoyama shook her head. "I knew it from Naoki-san. Ah, that is Naoki Nagayama."

"Eh? Naoki-san?" Akina Nakamori looked at the girl in front of her. She shouldn't know that Naoki Nagayama and she are dating, right?

"Yes, when chatting with Naoki-san before debuting, he mentioned Akina-san's name many times, and I knew Akina from that time!"

Chikako Aoyama remembered the smile that rose on Naoki Nagayama's face when he passed by the Aoyama shop before.

"Chatting with Naoki-san?"

"Ah, because Naoki-san lived relatively close, he would pass by every day and chat for a while~" Chikako Aoyama explained shyly.

Akina Nakamori kept a smile on her face, but "childhood sweetheart" popped up in her heart! This Chikako Aoyama, why does it feel like she is here to demonstrate? Really or fake?

"Haha, that's really a coincidence~"

Although Akina Nakamori wanted to know more about the things between Naoki Nagayama and Chikako Aoyama before, the *Night HIT* venue was not a good time, so she changed the subject,

"Chikako-san is just debuting now, right?"

"Yes, only the first song..." Chikako Aoyama nodded, a little embarrassed. "Haha, because I was accidentally photographed, so I debuted in a hurry."

"That's really an accident~" Akina Nakamori knew this situation, Chikako Aoyama debuted early because she had a scandal with Naoki Nagayama.

"Yes, thanks to Naoki-san who immediately created a debut song for me, otherwise I don't know what to do~" Chikako Aoyama had a smile on her face, as if she said it casually.

However, Akina Nakamori's expression almost couldn't be maintained. Specially created a debut song? Such tea-like words...

"Is she really not here to demonstrate? Here to declare war? Want to grab Naoki-san from me openly?"

Naoki Nagayama in Kyoto, far away, didn't know at all that there was a Shuraba related to him slowly opening in Tokyo.

At this time, he was watching the filming of *Ring* on the film set. Today they came to the outdoors and found a cafe to film some investigation and other outdoor scenes.

However, Naoki Nagayama was wearing a thick mask at this time. On the fourth day of coming to Kyoto, the cold added a bit of acclimatization, and even taking medicine didn't relieve it.

For the past two days, he had no appetite, and his face felt much thinner.

"Naoki-san, are you okay?" Taking advantage of the gap, Yuko Tanaka walked to Naoki Nagayama's side. "Should I go back and lie down?"

"Daijoubu!" Naoki Nagayama refused. "I know my body, it's already moving towards recovery!"

Yuko Tanaka couldn't say much, looking at this friend with some worry. And Jia Yi Yin Tang, who was always on the film set, had been forbidden to be beside Naoki Nagayama, and Xiuichi Yin Tang was afraid that she would also be infected.

"Naoki-san, ready." Masataka Komori walked over. "Two scenes in the cafe this afternoon, reporter Reiko Asakawa chatting with colleagues about this accident, and later interviewing related people."

"Hmm, Yuko-san, come on~" Naoki Nagayama let Yuko Tanaka hurry to prepare, and he found Xiuichi Yin Tang. "Xiuichi-san, next, next is the scene in the hotel, right?"

"Hmm, it is like this according to the schedule process, but we have already arranged a room in the courtyard as a hotel room." Xiuichi Yin Tang said. "Does Naoki-san have any ideas?"

"Ah, nothing..." Naoki Nagayama opened his mouth muffledly. "It's just that until the indoor filming is completed, we are going to Izu Oshima to film outdoor scenes, right?"

"Well, this is about a week later..." Xiuichi Yin Tang nodded.

"Hmm, a few days before leaving, I want to borrow Mudao-san~" Naoki Nagayama said for his own little abacus. "Xiuichi-san is familiar with the filming here~ It should be fine for me to leave for a few days."

"Uh..." Xiuichi Yin Tang instinctively wanted to keep Naoki Nagayama, but thought that he had already greeted him before, so it didn't seem easy to go back on his word at this time. "Ah, if so, then there is no way..."

"I will take them to Izu Oshima and gather with everyone when the time comes."

Naoki Nagayama said so, it's a pity that there is no airport on Izu Oshima, otherwise it would be more convenient to fly directly from Hokkaido to there...

In the evening, Naoki Nagayama relied on being sick and came to the hotel to rest early, but took advantage of not getting off work yet, and made calls to Tokyo in the room,

"Otomo-san, how is the school in Otaru?"

"Hmm, it's already rented." Hiromu Yoshimura said. "An old school there agreed to rent us a classroom and a library for a few days."

"Ha, how much did it cost?"

"About one million..." Hiromu Yoshimura clicked his tongue. This price, logically speaking, could rent a house in Otaru for a year.

"It's okay~" Naoki Nagayama was no longer sensitive to money. He basically wouldn't pay attention to anything under ten million. "I should arrive in Otaru this weekend."

Hiromu Yoshimura nodded. "By the way, I also found the agency of Feng Nagayama and hired more than a dozen people to be high school students."

"Eh? Feng-dage?" Naoki Nagayama was a little surprised. "He didn't go on stage himself, right?"

"Of course not!" Hiromu Yoshimura couldn't imagine what would happen if that fierce guy went to school, planting a flag?

"Because in the script Naoki-san gave me, we don't need other actors for now, so I haven't found supporting roles."

"Hmm, other people's scenes are actually not big." Naoki Nagayama recalled *Love Letter*. In fact, except for the two protagonists, only the mothers of the two and an old man had many scenes. "Otomo-san, after I return to Tokyo, find two supporting roles with acting skills."

"Yes, I will arrange it in advance." Hiromu Yoshimura recorded this item in his notebook.

"By the way, Otomo-san, did you tell Xiuichi-san?" Hiromu Yoshimura was very curious about how Naoki Nagayama opened his mouth to Xiuichi Yin Tang.

"Hahaha, of course I said it. Using the excuse of filming a renovation documentary." Naoki Nagayama laughed. "Xiuichi-san didn't say anything and agreed."

"Uh..." Hiromu Yoshimura whispered, "Naoki-san, do you think Xiuichi-san already knows? After all, Mudao-kun and the others were brought out by Xiuichi-san."

"Well..." Naoki Nagayama was also a little uneasy, but still gritted his teeth. "It doesn't matter, anyway, after the first filming, he can't stop it!"

Hiromu Yoshimura sighed, only hoping that Xiuichi-san wouldn't be angry for too long in the future.

Before hanging up the phone, Hiromu Yoshimura remembered one thing:

"Naoki-san, that Etsuro Kikuchi called and asked about the progress of *Twilight Nyan Nyan*."

"Ah, that guy~"

Naoki Nagayama was also a little embarrassed. After all, although the contract had been signed, big companies like TV stations were very slow to promote.

"Otomo-san, you can tell him that he can send scouts to find them among high school students, find some cute high school students with characteristics, and when I come back, I will join forces with Yasushi Akimoto and Taisuke Sugiura to conduct preliminary casting with him."

Naoki Nagayama's brain was a little dizzy, but he still said in an orderly manner. "During this time, the schedule of the Cat's Eye Three Sisters must be reserved, don't go to large-scale communications, wait for me to come back and talk to them specifically."

Hiromu Yoshimura listened for a long time: "Naoki-san, when exactly are you coming back?"

"It will take two more days here, three days in Otaru, it should be within a week." Naoki Nagayama roughly determined the time. "We expect to start the *Twilight Nyan Nyan* project at the end of October."

Naoki Nagayama, who hung up the phone, silently sorted out the things at hand. Filming *Ring*, filming *Love Letter*, planning *Twilight Nyan Nyan*...

Why did I become even busier at the end of the year?
