Chapter 828: It doesn't matter if you throw away feelings!!!

~13 min read 2,430 words

On the morning of the second day, Akina Nakamori got up early in a good mood and made a sumptuous breakfast~

After returning last night, she discovered that her boyfriend was creating a cherry blossom song for her, and her mood suddenly soared.

Until morning, the melody of "Dream and Leaf Cherry" was in her mind, and she was humming the tune while making breakfast~

"Naoki-san, get up quickly and eat breakfast~"

She was also very gentle toward her boyfriend who was still sleeping in bed, perhaps also feeling ashamed in her heart for squeezing him too hard~

But there was no way around it. When she went to Momoe Yamaguchi's place yesterday, she was taught experience...... For a man as dangerous as Naoki Nagayama, you must make sure he has no energy to find others outside.....

"Hmm, okay~"

Naoki Nagayama woke up yawning. After getting dressed, he stretched...... Sigh, it seems he also needs to start drinking the health-preserving medicinal wine he gave Akina's father~

After a breakfast that was both delicious and fragrant, Akina Nakamori went out first. She also had filming work today...... For a popular artist like Akina, the number of schedules that need to be filmed is countless.

And the remaining Naoki Nagayama naturally prepared to head to Ota Ward to continue filming "Don't Stop the Camera!"

"Eitaro, watch the house well~"

After saying goodbye to the dog, Naoki Nagayama also got into his convertible sports car and drove toward the suburbs.

However, what was a bit strange recently was that he would run into Shuichi Ido waiting for him at the set every day......

"Shuichi-san, why do you seem so free recently....." Naoki Nagayama asked somewhat strangely, and then looked at Hiroshi Kijima, "Kijima-kun, you seem to be too....."

"The last episode of 'Love Generation' has been filmed and edited, just waiting for broadcast." Hiroshi Kijima spoke without any hesitation, "So I have time to learn Naoki-san's filming techniques."

The pressure was on Shuichi Ido.....

"Ahem~"

Shuichi Ido, who was over thirty, was more or less embarrassed. As the film business department, he should have had a lot of things to do, but he still explained,

"The communication about the Palme d'Or side is almost done, and the rest can only depend on heaven...... Besides, isn't 'Squid Game' not filmed yet~ so come and see how Naoki-san's creative movies are filmed~"

So you are also here to learn?

Naoki Nagayama shook his head. Both guys said it openly, what could he do.

So he could only start the Nth re-filming of "Don't Stop the Camera!"......

"Just spit it on him!" Naoki Nagayama instructed from outside the lens, filming the drunken zombie spitting on the assistant director's face, "Make him feel real fear..... (disgusting)"

After this shot, a certain "sound engineer" suddenly wanted to run out, and the director couldn't stop him...... It turned out that this guy drank dirty water and had diarrhea.....

In short, a series of nonsensical plots and shots made those who hadn't seen the script full of confusion, but Shuichi Ido and Hiroshi Kijima on the periphery of the set watched with relish.

"Shuichi-san..... if Naoki-san films like this, he can indeed film everything that might be encountered during the filming of a movie~" Hiroshi Kijima chatted with Shuichi Ido next to him, "However, this feels a bit crudely made...."

"Yeah, the various shots now are too complicated. Although there is the gimmick of one-shot, it still depends on how Naoki edits it in the end...."

The two directors watched the situation inside from outside the set, and the more they watched, the more it felt like students in college doing graduation works..... They were full of questions about how Naoki Nagayama was going to edit it.

Wouldn't it really mess up in the end? No way, no way......

During the lunch break, the crew naturally couldn't help but chat about the explosive news that started yesterday.

"Do you think Seiko Matsuda really loves Masaki Kanda?" Ayano Katagiri asked with some doubt, "Getting married in such a short time, does love at first sight really exist?"

"I think Seiko-san has always been a very rational artist, and announcing the marriage should also be carefully considered~" Kisa Akiyama said on the side, "In such a short time, to be able to win the consent of both agencies, it must be true love....."

"How can true love be so cheap...."

"There must be an unknown story...."

"Maybe they were dating in secret long ago...."

"Could it be a shotgun wedding? Getting married in June, afraid the belly will be seen?"

Everyone discussed while eating. Judging from the fission situation, perhaps the whole of Tokyo or even Japan was discussing this news.

Shuichi Ido was also curious and asked Naoki Nagayama:

"Naoki-san, do you know what the situation is?"

"Me? How would I know....."

Actually, Naoki Nagayama knew a little bit, all of which were from the memoirs of magazine interviews he saw in the future, and of course, there were also interviews with Seiko Matsuda and Masaki Kanda.

In fact, Masaki Kanda had a true playboy personality and didn't want to get married..... However, maybe seeing the exposure Seiko Matsuda could bring him, he decided to get married.

Anyway, Seiko Matsuda had said before that she wouldn't retire because of family, and wasn't afraid of Seiko's fans boycotting him because of this....

Judging from the retrospective interviews of assistants around Seiko Matsuda, Masaki Kanda started to be unclear with other women after Seiko became pregnant......

And Seiko Matsuda, no one could figure out her thoughts at this time. She had a very strong career ambition...... Maybe it was emotional injury, so she just found an honest man to marry?

Or maybe Momoe Yamaguchi retired too thoroughly, and this pair wanted to replicate the drama of a top female idol marrying an actor, and then challenge the track of celebrity couple's married life?

"In short, I heard from Akina..... Seiko-san definitely isn't pregnant....." Naoki Nagayama was very clear about this, "Someone saw Seiko Matsuda drinking recently~"

"Is that so...." Shuichi Ido seemed to understand something, "It looks like it's very likely just a temporary passion in love~"

"Maybe~"

The news about the top idol getting married was spreading continuously.

Soon, all kinds of different guesses emerged. Shotgun marriage was just one of them. There were also things like using scandals to win exposure, using the final concert before the wedding to rake in money, Seiko deciding to retire.....

There were even conspiracy theories, such as Seiko finding someone to marry at random because her relationship with a certain big shot whose name couldn't be mentioned was discovered by the main wife, so she had to get married quickly to avoid suspicion.......

In short..... when encountering such a thing, everyone's imagination was running wild.

"Akina-chan, what song are you humming? Is it a new song?"

Maki Ueda heard the new song Akina Nakamori was humming and was very curious. She hadn't heard it yet.

"It's a new song created by Naoki-san!" Akina Nakamori said very proudly, "It was specially created for me after we went to see the cherry blossoms!"

"Honto?" Maki Ueda's eyes were shining, "It's really enviable! Akina-chan, what's the name?"

"It's called 'Dream and Leaf Cherry'......."

Akina Nakamori shared happily. She had been humming it in the car for a long time, wasn't it just to show off~

Then she started teaching her little assistant how to sing......

Fusanori Akiko, who was driving in front, couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He envied other singers and idols.

A gold-medal musician like Naoki Nagayama, who could write songs that could definitely enter the top ten of the Oricon charts, was someone every singer wanted to invite to compose and write lyrics......

But this guy never accepted any creation commissions from anyone. You have to know that every song was almost a commission of tens of millions!

However, what was even more surprising was that he actually created songs for his girlfriend Akina Nakamori casually...... and it was the kind tailored for her.....

It was really treating money like dirt, purely to win a beauty's smile?

Seeing Akina Nakamori's innocent smile from the rearview mirror, Fusanori Akiko complained in his heart: "Akina-chan..... what kind of blessing did you have in your previous life~"

After the car returned to the Ken-On agency, Akina Nakamori quickly sought out Yoshiaki Tanaka:

"Ryomin-san, I have a new song I want to add to the new album....."

"New song?"

Yoshiaki Tanaka was surprised. He had only sent out the invitation for commissioned creation not long ago, how could there be a new song now? How come I, the person in charge of this new album, don't know?

"Hai, it's a new song created by Naoki-san..... 'Dream and Leaf Cherry'" Akina Nakamori introduced the song to Yoshiaki Tanaka in detail.

"Hmm...."

After listening to it, Yoshiaki Tanaka had to agree that this was a very good song depicting cherry blossoms. However, the style of the whole album.....

"Akina-chan, the style of our next album is Middle Eastern style...... Such a song with very Japanese characteristics, although it is very good, in the whole album, it seems a bit out of place....."

As a professional record producer, he believed that the style of the whole album should be unified.

Akina Nakamori also heard it and felt it made sense..... However, was she not going to sing this song? Wouldn't that be too much of a pity.....

Seeing the unwillingness of his pillar, Yoshiaki Tanaka thought of an idea:

"Akina-chan, why don't we take advantage of the April cherry blossom season and produce a single record directly!"

"Eh?"

"Just treat it as a special cherry blossom season project~" Yoshiaki Tanaka smiled, "It just so happens that Akina-chan seems to have never sung a cherry blossom song....."

"But, if we add it temporarily......"

"Daijobu!"

Yoshiaki Tanaka waved his hand. With a mature song and a singer, the rest was just recording and producing the record.

Naoki Nagayama's songs, knowing they would make money, neither the agency nor the record company would refuse.

At most, it would be working overtime for a few days, everyone would definitely be able to overcome it!

"I will talk to Chairman Hanami and Terabayashi-san about this matter, there will definitely be no problem!"

"This...... then I'll trouble you, Ryomin-san!" Akina Nakamori happily went to the design room, preparing to pick out clothes for the cherry blossom season photos!

Seeing Akina Nakamori leave, Yoshiaki Tanaka's face collapsed.......

It was easy to say, but the subsequent production, promotion, song promotion, sales..... every link required energy to execute!

Originally, the whole of April could just maintain the promotion of the previous album and wait for the creation of the new album peacefully. Now the Akina promotion department had to get busy again~

"Really..... Naoki Nagayama, this guy, don't just send songs to people casually!"

At the headquarters of Sunny Agency, Seiko Matsuda was also preparing very busily on this side. Just at this moment, junior Yukiko Okada walked to her side:

"Seiko-san..... is the concert tour starting next week?"

"Hmm..... for the next two months, it will be very busy....." Seiko Matsuda replied while applying makeup, "I also have to go to New York to record in the middle...."

"After the concert ends, you will get married immediately, right?" Yukiko Okada asked, "The wedding also takes energy to prepare...."

"Regarding the wedding, the agency will handle everything!" Seiko Matsuda said very easily, as if she wasn't talking about her own wedding, "Masaki-san and I will just participate when the time comes~"

This wedding, except for the relatives and friends of both sides that she could choose herself, every other aspect was scheduled..... even the wedding dress was a high-end custom sponsorship from a luxury brand......

Although it was called a wedding, it was better to say it was a large-scale performance show~

"Seiko-san......" Yukiko Okada looked at her senior, her tone slightly flustered, "Are you happy?"

Seiko Matsuda stopped the powder puff in her hand, turned her head to look at Yukiko Okada's still very young face, paused, and then smiled:

"Of course, what silly things are you saying..... how can getting married not be happy...... a mature and considerate husband like Masaki-san, isn't this the ideal husband every woman looks forward to!"

"But....."

"Yukiko-chan~" Seiko Matsuda interrupted Yukiko Okada's question, "You know, the marriage and retirement of Momoe Yamaguchi and Tomokazu Miura have always been considered the best destination for idols!"

"Now, Masaki Kanda and I, didn't we just replicate Momoe Yamaguchi and Tomokazu Miura?"

"Both are idols and actors, both collaborated on movies....."

Seiko Matsuda's voice became lighter and lighter, as if she was cheering herself up,

"This is the best destination for idols!"

Yukiko Okada looked at Seiko Matsuda, who had a firm expression, sighed, didn't continue to ask, and silently exited the makeup room.

When closing the door, she saw Seiko Matsuda, who was sitting in front of the makeup mirror with her back straight, and sighed silently in her heart......

"Is a marriage where you don't even care about your own wedding really happy?"

Even she, who hadn't gotten married yet, knew that a bride should attach great importance to her own wedding...... not to the point of still working a few days before the wedding.....

Thinking of herself again, as the most shining new star after Seiko Matsuda and Akina Nakamori in people's mouths, she also seemed to have found someone she could rely on and like in the heavy work......

But the president said he liked her, is it true? Then why didn't he have the intention to go public like Naoki Nagayama..... why didn't he have the intention to divorce either?

In the makeup room, only Seiko Matsuda was left alone again.

She looked at the exquisite and beautiful face in the mirror, as if she saw an exquisite doll...... so-called idols are probably such fake things~

"True love or something, doesn't exist!"

Seiko Matsuda recalled the four-year relationship. Even if she communicated sincerely, she couldn't make Hiromi Go change his mind, but instead, he blindly asked her to change...... Such feelings, it doesn't matter if you throw them away!

Thinking about it, her vision blurred..... Seiko Matsuda took out a tissue to wipe away her tears, firming her thoughts again:

"The best destination for idols..... is to be like Momoe Yamaguchi, marrying an actor......

This is everyone's expectation for idols, and I....

Must be that—'Perfect Idol'!" ===== CHAPTER 829 =====
