Chapter 9: Photos can be taken, but, you have to pay more!

~7 min read 1,325 words

"Oh no, accidentally said the scout's script from before..." Tomo Yoshimura accidentally said the words he used to invite others to take photos.

Hurriedly explained: "Ano, not taking photos, it's advertisements, advertisements!"

Naoki Nagayama's heart tightened. After all, this uncle who looked at him lecherously just now seemed a bit unreliable.

"Is it that kind of advertisement?"

"Which kind?"

"The kind printed on small cards..."

"What kind of small cards? No, if it's printed, it's printed on soda bottles."

Tomo Yoshimura was a bit confused. The advertisement on small cards didn't seem to be popular yet.

Naoki Nagayama, under Tomo Yoshimura's invitation, sat down in a yakitori shop. It was lunch time, and the aroma of barbecue stimulated the primitive appetite of the guests. Naoki Nagayama felt saliva secreting wildly. The metabolism speed of young people, the octopus balls before had long disappeared.

"Nagayama-kun, this yakitori shop is one I often came to before, the heat of the master is very old-fashioned!" Tomo Yoshimura skillfully ordered a yakitori set meal, plus a few cold dishes like cold tofu, and handed the menu to Naoki Nagayama. "Nagayama-kun, please order as you like. The classic set meal here is very famous, you can try it!"

"Okay, then a classic yakitori set meal, plus a charcoal-grilled chicken heart set meal." The portion of Japanese-style catering is notoriously small. Two portions will definitely not fill a young man's stomach.

While waiting for the food to be served, Tomo Yoshimura explained the advertisement he invited him to shoot in detail.

"I see, a new soda. However, new products of soda are usually launched in summer. It's the end of the year now."

"Hai, I heard it's a test of a series of products launched by the headquarters, so this advertisement is very sudden, and we are also in a hurry to find a suitable model." Tomo Yoshimura completely didn't mention the fact that several previous models had been rejected, and didn't show that he was particularly anxious. "Seeing Nagayama-kun today, I found that your temperament is quite consistent with the soda, so I came to ask if Nagayama-kun is interested in trying to be an advertising model."

"If selected, in addition to this advertising business, it is also possible to be selected as a brand spokesperson in the future!" The level of drawing cakes in the Showa era is about the same as that of later generations.

Naoki Nagayama actually didn't lack money, but after spending all his assets, it was amazing to have two or three thousand left after paying the house payment. However, for royalty income, at least wait for 2 months.

Originally planned to return to his hometown for the New Year, wait until the New Year passed, the royalties would come down, then live in a new house, and then use the royalty contract as collateral for a loan to buy a new house to form a snowball, preparing for getting rich overnight. However, if there is a windfall during this period, it is also very OK. However, if you are in the advertising model industry, wouldn't you have to sign a very harsh contract...

"Ano, Yoshimura-kun," Naoki Nagayama asked, "I heard that if you are an advertising model, you need to sign a relatively strict brokerage contract, right?"

"Hai, Nagayama-kun, you have to sign after entering the industry. However, our agency's contract is very formal, and the conditions are basically the same as those of large agencies. This point can still be guaranteed."

"However, I don't have the idea of entering the model industry for the time being," Naoki Nagayama said, "My family also hopes that I will go back to inherit the family business..."

Tomo Yoshimura was a bit anxious when he heard this. This is related to his year-end bonus. "Ah, Nagayama-kun, the model industry has a great future. To be honest, with your external conditions, your development potential in this industry is very large. In the future, whether it is promotion to management or as a springboard to enter the entertainment industry as an idol, it is feasible."

"And there is a cooperation advertisement with Tomomasu Beverage again, which is a rare chance for young people." Tomo Yoshimura "If I may say so, what is the family business you inherited? Can it provide such a good future?"

Talking too much made his mouth dry, and Tomo Yoshimura picked up a cold drink and drank it.

Exposed... Naoki Nagayama saw that he was so anxious, and knew that the cooperation with Tomomasu Beverage was quite urgent. This also made it easier to strive for more rights and interests.

Naoki Nagayama decided to add a little pressure. "Ah, it's not a big family business. My grandfather is the leader of the Yamaguchi-gumi in Shizuoka City, and my parents have always hoped that I can contribute to the family in the future."

"Pfft..." Tomo Yoshimura was indeed choked. "Yamaguchi-gumi?!"

The Yamaguchi-gumi in the Showa era was exactly when it was in full swing, and ordinary people were terrified when they heard it.

"Ah, so that's it... ah, this, the family business is still very important, that, the expectations of the family members really have to be responded to..." Tomo Yoshimura began to stammer, his words not matching his previous ones.

Looking at the handsome boy who was gentle and gentle in front of him, he was actually a direct descendant of the Yamaguchi-gumi leader. Who would know? Tomo Yoshimura felt bitter in his heart. I don't know if it was because the news was too shocking, or because of the year-end bonus that was gradually flying away...

Fortunately, the yakitori from the shop was sent up at this time. Naoki Nagayama tasted a string, and it was indeed crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, fat but not greasy.

"Yoshimura-san, the master's skill is really exquisite!"

"Hai, please enjoy~" Tomo Yoshimura was actually a bit cautious at this time.

Naoki Nagayama enjoyed the meal very much. During the period, Tomo Yoshimura was a bit tasteless, and the chat was just a taste. After the shop collected the leftovers and served the dessert after the meal, he felt a little recovered.

"Nagayama-kun, it's a pity. Sure enough, the family business is more important. The requirements of the family cannot be violated."

"Yoshimura-san, don't be so polite. Call me Naoki. As for the family business, there is actually the eldest uncle's family and the eldest brother who can inherit..."

Nani? Then what did you mention Yamaguchi-gumi just now? What did you mention inheriting the family business?

If it were a Chinese person in later generations, Tomo Yoshimura would definitely have a sentence he wanted to say at this time: No one can stop...

"Actually, the matter of shooting advertisements can be considered, but I don't want to be a professional model." Naoki Nagayama indicated that he just wanted to earn this windfall.

"Sou desu ne, Nagayama-kun originally wanted to take this business in his own name?" Tomo Yoshimura was not ignorant of this form. When other celebrities in the industry took announcements and advertisements, they occasionally used this method, but for a newcomer...

At this time, Tomo Yoshimura suddenly found that the rhythm of the conversation had been dominated by Naoki Nagayama. Was it intentional to disrupt my mind before? This young man is not simple.

However, if this project was ruined, not only would he have no year-end bonus, but he would also leave an impression of insufficient ability in front of the president. Thinking of this, Tomo Yoshimura said directly: "Nagayama-kun, why don't we go for a screen test in the afternoon to see if it is suitable for this advertisement."

It means that if it is suitable, continue to talk, if it is not suitable...

Naoki Nagayama also understood the implication and smiled and said: "Of course, you can also take photos, but, you have to pay more..." ===== CHAPTER 10 =====
