Chapter 799: Loved by everyone, loved by flowers

The flight from Tokyo to Rio requires a transfer in Los Angeles before you can transfer to South America, and the entire journey takes more than 24 hours on the plane.

So... Naoki Nagayama naturally booked first-class tickets for himself and Akina, the kind with small compartments where you can lie down!

In the VIP waiting room, Naoki Nagayama saw his girlfriend's figure. She went to the agency first and went to the airport with everyone, so there were some very familiar figures next to her...

"Naoki-san!" Akina ran over in small steps, standing affectionately next to her boyfriend. "Have you been waiting long?"

"Not really..."

Naoki Nagayama put Akina's suitcase together with his own and turned to look at the crew members who followed.

Besides Fusunori Akisaka and little assistant Maki Ueda, there were also Nobuyasu Honda, Yuta Kuroki, Yuzo Shimada... they were all familiar faces!

"Minna-san, long time no see..."

Looking at the bright smile on this guy's face, Yuzo Shimada remembered the previous times he met abroad, and silently said nothing~

At that time, the two weren't officially dating, but Naoki Nagayama must have been specifically following Akina, right! And he even took photos of himself drunk to blackmail...

From the moment he received the envelope full of photos, Naoki Nagayama was a black-bellied guy in Yuzo Shimada's heart!

"Naoki-san... sashiburi~"

Nobuyasu Honda and Yuta Kuroki didn't have any disgust. Every time Naoki Nagayama was around, at least he was the one paying the bill... The high-end restaurants abroad weren't fully reimbursed by Burning Productions!

"I'll trouble everyone this time too~"

Naoki Nagayama familiarly greeted the staff,

"I saw that everyone originally booked economy class... but it's 24 hours on the plane, so I helped everyone upgrade to business class..."

"Arigato~" "Really trouble you!" "How can I be embarrassed..." "......"

In an instant, the attitude of the crew members improved by more than one level, and they chatted with Naoki Nagayama enthusiastically.

Just like that, Naoki Nagayama integrated into the Burning Productions shooting team without any effort.

After everyone finished chatting and was waiting in the lounge, Akina Mori whispered in her boyfriend's ear:

"Naoki-san is really cunning! You bought everyone's heart all at once!"

"What are you talking about? This is my own affinity exploding!" Naoki Nagayama was dissatisfied and said earnestly, "Everyone says that I, Naoki Nagayama, have been elegant, handsome, loved by everyone, loved by flowers since I was a child, a pear blossom pressing a begonia, known as the lightning century beautiful boy..."

This sentence was already awkward in Chinese, and in Japanese, it sounded like he was rapping...

"Hahahaha, what is Naoki-san saying~ Hahaha~"

Akina Mori had a low laugh threshold. After hearing this, she kept laughing on the side, as if she had been hit by a laughing acupoint.

The surrounding crew members all cast surprised eyes, and a few complained in their hearts:

"As expected of the playboy Naoki, he can make his girlfriend laugh so happily... what girl can't he chase with this eloquence!"

A plane slowly took off from Tokyo Narita Airport, drawing a thin line in the blue sky~

The privacy of the first class was indeed very good. The small compartment door was pulled shut, just like a hotel room, with a TV, snacks, a small refrigerator, a wine cabinet, etc. inside.

When it was time for a meal, there were meals delivered that were no worse than high-end hotels, which was no different from later generations.

The enjoyment of the rich was little blocked by the era, mainly blocked by assets.

"Naoki-san, the carnival in Rio de Janeiro is very grand, right?" Akina Mori leaned on her boyfriend's shoulder, her eyes full of longing. "I heard it's a grand event that only happens once a year~"

"There's samba dancing then, can Akina dance?" Naoki Nagayama asked.

"No... but it seems to be similar to the hula dance..."

"They are both tropical dances, so they are very similar?"

"How could that be... hah"

Chatting about easy and stupid topics on the plane, looking through the porthole and seeing the buildings below had become small dots, the plane finally flew into the stratosphere, in a piece of white sea of clouds, like a flying ship~

The clouds turned into beautiful gold under the sunlight, pure and with a touch of holiness, making people feel like it was heaven~

Perhaps someone must have seen it in ancient times, otherwise how could they draw such beautiful scenery as Takamagahara~

Life in Tokyo didn't stop because of the departure of one or two people.

After Seiko Matsuda returned from New York, she was often photographed dating Masaki Kanda.

As an idol, Seiko Matsuda didn't seem to try too hard to avoid the media. Instead, she was very intimate at the completion disclosure of their new film "Caribbean: Symphony of Love," causing speculation among the Japanese media...

And as Akina Mori, who was competing with Seiko Matsuda, there was no change in her relationship in the short term, so the love gossip between the third place under the two big female idols, Kyoko Koizumi and the lead singer of the Checkers, Fumiya Fujii, started again~

There were also male idols like Toshihiko Tahara, Shibugakitai, and Shonentai, whose concerts and new songs were all in full swing... However, Masahiko Kondo, who was originally at the top of the male idols, didn't seem to keep up with the pace.

Masahiko Kondo's career reached its peak in 1980 (Showa 55), and after that, it slowly began to go downhill~

Masahiko Kondo, who was already in his 20s, was very old as an idol. In front, there was Hiromi Go who transformed and his popularity soared; on the side, there was Toshihiko Tahara competing; behind, there was Shonentai, and a group of vibrant young idols were eyeing him covetously...

Without the continuous traffic brought by Akina Mori, another top female idol in the idol circle, he could only be one of the idols who rose and fell suddenly in the idol world...

The vitality of idols was originally short, and he, who didn't have much business ability himself, couldn't transform even if he wanted to. He could only rely on news such as speeding, drunkenness, and scandals to bring some exposure...

However, Mary from Johnny's was still promoting him. The competition in the Japanese entertainment industry was too fierce, so he could only try to expand overseas. I heard he was going to Hong Kong~

On TV, the new episode of "Love Century" was aired in prime time again. Hiromi Go and Momoko Kikuchi, the sparks between the uncle and the young girl, and the emotions like happy enemies made the audience fascinated.

More and more office workers returned to their rental houses early after work, looking forward to the broadcast of "Love Century."

And the crystal apple that often appeared in the drama had become popular in Japan. If a girl didn't have a crystal apple, she wouldn't even have confidence when chatting on campus.

At the same time, next to Shanying Yuan in Chiyoda, a group of strange construction teams arrived...

Fujita Huizi explained the situation to the foreman:

"The rooms on the second floor and above of this building are all moved out... Although it hasn't been designed yet, all the billboards and flowers and plants in the yard are not needed. The wall here should also be removed first..."

"Huizi-san, should this road in the middle also be demolished? Will the neighbors have any opinions?" The foreman asked with some worry.

"No! This building was bought by the neighbors!" Fujita Huizi said directly. "When the design drawing is completed, the Shanying Yuan next to it will be connected, and even the bamboo next door will be moved away!"

"......"

The foreman was instantly relieved. It was his meddling!

When Fujita Huizi was giving instructions, Takashi Honma and Naoya Sakata from the Honma Design Office all came.

"Huizi-san... long time no see~"

"Honma-san, Sakata-san..." Fujita Huizi smiled. "It's good that you're here~ Naoki-san should have told you, right?!"

"Hai!" Naoya Sakata replied. "Naoki-san mentioned the expansion of Shanying Yuan... and also made some requirements, including garages, cafes, bars, entertainment rooms, home recording studios, etc..."

"That's good. Today, the two of you can inspect the building next door... Naoki-san's meaning is that if necessary, rebuilding it is also possible~"

Fujita Huizi didn't know the specific situation in detail, so she said directly to the two people,

"Naoki-san went abroad, but he gave me the key to Shanying Yuan... If you want to inspect the site, you can."

"Our office already has the drawings of Shanying Yuan!" Takashi Honma said. "Today we mainly come to see this one next door!"

"Hai, thank you both for your hard work!"

"It's what we should do!"

Time flew by. After transferring in Los Angeles, the time to Brazil was much shorter~

By the time the group arrived in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, it was already the next evening.

The temperature in Tokyo was still hovering around 10 degrees, but Rio de Janeiro was at its hottest time of the year, with an average temperature of 26 degrees!

After checking into the resort hotel, Akina Mori and Naoki Nagayama, who had slept for almost a whole day, were very energetic now, while the other crew members were almost all a bit tired... So first class still had its benefits!

"Naoki-san, let's go for a walk!"

Akina Mori looked at the scenery outside the hotel with expectation and acted like a spoiled child to Naoki Nagayama, completely ignoring the eyes of the big and small assistants next to her.

"Fusunori-san, Shimada-san... why don't you rest in the hotel first..." Naoki Nagayama naturally couldn't take people away directly, so he still had to tell the other crew members. "Akina and I will walk around nearby..."

"Naoki-san, the official language of Rio de Janeiro is Portuguese... our translator won't be on duty until tomorrow..." Fusunori Akisaka was a bit worried. "Outside the hotel, very few people speak English..."

"Portuguese... and Spanish are both in the Latin language family, so I know a little Spanish, so it doesn't matter!" Naoki Nagayama said with a smile. "We won't go too far~"

"This..."

Fusunori Akisaka was still a bit worried, but Akina Mori said on the side:

"Fusunori-san, don't worry, Naoki-san also knows Italian, German, Chinese... it definitely doesn't matter!"

"......."

Fusunori Akisaka opened his eyes wide in surprise. Why learn so many languages? Naoki Nagayama, why don't you go be a translator!

"I don't know Italian... I can only ask for directions in daily life..." Naoki Nagayama said modestly. He learned Spanish when traveling in Europe, but he only knew a little Italian.

"......" Naoki Nagayama, why don't you go be a translator!!!

However, Fusunori Akisaka didn't stop the two from going out, and naturally, no one else had a reason to stop them.

Watching the handsome man and beautiful woman walk out of the hotel in cool local clothing, Yuzo Shimada, who had been watching the show, didn't know why he felt a bit sour, and said to Fusunori Akisaka:

"Fusunori-san, why does it feel like those two are here for a honeymoon... we are clearly here to work!"

"Sigh..." Fusunori Akisaka shook his head. "Forget it, the two of them didn't separate even when they weren't officially dating. Now that they've officially announced it, we can't stop them even if we want to... let them be~"

"......."

Yuzo Shimada felt that his group of people seemed to have become a part of that couple's love play... probably background boards...

Akina Mori and Naoki Nagayama walked out of the hotel and were instantly surrounded by heat waves. The sunset shining on them felt like noon in Tokyo.

After passing two intersections, they came to a noisy street in the local area.

Pedestrians coming and going were wearing colorful floral clothes. From time to time, children kicked footballs and ran past. In front of the street vendors were full fruits and coconuts. Small shops on the street were roasting large pieces of beef, with a fragrance overflowing, and there were also enthusiastic artists playing drums on the street...

The rich South American atmosphere rushed toward them, making people feel the cultural shock completely different from Tokyo.

"Naoki-san~" Passing by a fruit stand, Akina handed the coconut with a straw to Naoki Nagayama's mouth. "Very fresh coconut!"

Naoki Nagayama also naturally took a sip. The fresh coconut juice flavor filled his mouth, as if it had just been picked from the tree:

"Very delicious~"

Akina was satisfied, took the coconut back, and then drank while saying:

"Naoki-san, it's only four o'clock in the afternoon, and there are so many people on the street... Is the population of Rio de Janeiro large? Or are they all tourists?"

"Some are tourists... but most of them are locals here~" Naoki Nagayama observed. "South American countries are different from Japan; they get off work very early..."

"Don't they need to work to make money?"

Akina Mori was actually half a workaholic. For someone who had been poor since childhood, making money was an obsession.

"Compared to making money, they want to enjoy life!"

Naoki Nagayama bluffed according to the arguments often seen on the internet before,

"Due to the climate, the harvest of fruits and food here is sufficient. They can eat their fill without working too hard, so they look... when they are free, they like to sing, dance, and play football... so Latin America is very good at these..."

"Truly happy..." Akina bought a mango at the fruit stand on the side, peeled the mango skin, took a bite, and showed a happy expression. "Being able to eat such delicious fruit, it's really too happy!"

For Japanese people, being able to eat fruit in big mouthfuls is indeed an extraordinary thing.

Even if Akina could eat all the fruit she wanted in Tokyo now, this luxurious scene of fruit piled up on the roadside stall still had too much impact. It wasn't as obvious as Rio de Janeiro when she went to Morocco before.

"Naoki-san~"

Akina, who knew how to share, took a bite herself and naturally gave her boyfriend a bite of the mango~

The two walked while tasting the fruit, blending into the street of Brazilian style, no different from other tourists. ===== CHAPTER 800 =====
