Chapter 947: As expected, we should announce it with a gold screen!!

In the special car arranged by the agency, Kyoko Koizumi held an invitation in her hand and flipped through it. Inside the gold-stamped outer seal was printed text, indicating the time and place of the wedding, as well as the words looking forward to participating.

Only the name was handwritten, Akina Nakamori's unique strange font, which made people see the childlike innocence in the heart of the person who wrote it at a glance...

"What is this?"

Manager Yu Sudo saw the invitation in his artist's hand from the rearview mirror and asked curiously.

"This is..."

Kyoko Koizumi hesitated for a moment, judging in her heart whether it needed to be kept secret, but then she thought about it, the fact that Akina Nakamori and Naoki Nagayama were getting married couldn't be kept secret,

"This is Akina-chan's wedding invitation..."

"Oh?!" Manager Yu Sudo was obviously very surprised, "Actually started sending invitations?! When did this happen?"

"The invitation was given to me by Akina-chan after the preliminary competition... They are getting married at the end of November... at the family temple in Shimizu City, Shizuoka, Naoki-san's hometown..." Kyoko Koizumi said since she had already said it, "It seems Akina-chan doesn't want to be like Seiko-san and Momoe-san~"

"Nani?!"

The manager was even more surprised. The entire entertainment industry was circulating the news of their marriage, and was also guessing what their wedding would be like. Most people thought it would definitely be a luxurious wedding that exceeded Momoe Yamaguchi and Seiko Matsuda...

Some said it was at the Imperial Hotel, some said it was on a luxury yacht, and some guessed with certainty that it must be broadcast live by several major TV stations, attracting worldwide attention... But now you tell me that Akina Nakamori and Naoki Nagayama actually want a low-key wedding?

And it's in a rural place like Shimizu, Shizuoka?!

We-do-not-agree!!!

Yu Sudo could already hear the angry roars of Akina's fans~

"It's in Shimizu City..." Yu Sudo pursed his lips, "After all, it's a star like Akina Nakamori, and a celebrity like Naoki Nagayama... isn't this too... inappropriate!"

He actually wanted to say that this simply lived up to the fame of the two~

"I actually think it's quite good~" Kyoko Koizumi shook her head. She was only twenty years old, and naturally had a fantasy about love, "Marriage is just something to share with the closest people... it doesn't matter if it's low-key..."

"..."

Yu Sudo was disdainful. In a place like the entertainment industry, it's not that you can be low-key if you want to be low-key. Their identities don't allow it!

"After this news is leaked, it will definitely cause a public opinion frenzy~"

Kyoko Koizumi seemed to react after hearing this: "Sudo-san, you can't spread this..."

"Che... the invitations have all been sent out, do I still need to spread it?"

Yu Sudo had a deep understanding of the well-informed nature of certain people in the entertainment industry. The hotel his artist booked in the morning would have paparazzi hiding in the stairwell to sneak photos in the afternoon. Do you believe it?

"I guess it should have spread by now~"

"No way..."

The invitations for Akina Nakamori and Naoki Nagayama had actually just started to be sent out. Speaking of which, the two of them had only written a dozen or so...

The reason why Kyoko Koizumi got it so early was because Akina was afraid that Kyoko was so busy that she wouldn't see her for a long time and couldn't deliver it personally, so she took advantage of the Record Awards preliminary competition to give it to her.

In the evening, the young couple huddled in the study, continuing to write invitations... At least the name part had to be handwritten to be sincere~

"Terabayashi-san, Hanami-san..."

Akina Nakamori calculated who to invite. The big shots of Burning Production had been helping her since her debut, so naturally, they couldn't be missing. There were also some teachers in composition or choreography...

Naoki Nagayama was a bit distressed:

"Yuantai-san is in the United States... maybe he can't come... but Lingmei-san must be invited..."

"That Nakai Yuantai?" Akina Nakamori asked after hearing it, "He seems to have been in the United States for a long time..."

"Mm, the investment in the United States needs someone to watch, at least until the end of the year." Naoki Nagayama said casually.

"Is that the investment Naoki-san said two months ago, that after the end of the year, we won't have to worry about money anymore?" Akina Nakamori suddenly remembered what Naoki Nagayama said two months ago.

"Ah..." Naoki Nagayama was stunned, and then smiled, "Yes, it's true that we don't have to worry about money anymore~"

With capital of over one billion US dollars, as long as you don't touch gambling or drugs, you won't be able to spend it all, right!

"After not having to worry about money, what should we worry about?"

"Probably worry about how to enjoy ourselves..."

"How to enjoy ourselves?"

"Go play everywhere, travel around the world, buy the most expensive jewelry, eat the rarest ingredients..."

"And all kinds of beautiful clothes..."

"Mm..."

The two people who fell into fantasy forgot about writing invitations for a while, imagining what life without worrying about money would be like... and then suddenly found that it seemed like they could do these things now...

Yes, Naoki Nagayama had long been financially free... Although Akina was still a little bit short, husband and wife are one, and Akina was also free to some extent~

"Thinking about it this way, after not having to worry about money, it seems very meaningless..."

After a long time, Akina Nakamori said silently,

"For humans, it's still better to have some pursuits..."

"Mm..." Naoki Nagayama touched his chin and suddenly thought of it, "No, after Akina gives birth to a baby, there will be something to worry about for a lifetime!"

"..."

Akina Nakamori was stunned for a moment. After reacting, she laughed angrily and hit her fiancé's shoulder hard,

"The baby is not a thing! Ah, no, he is a thing... No, he is a person!"

"Hahaha~"

With the two people's playfulness, the atmosphere in the study became joyful, and it took a while before they huddled on a chair quietly again...

After Naoki Nagayama was quiet for a while, he looked at the invitation and said:

"Speaking of which, after the invitations are sent out, the news won't be hidden..."

"That's for sure..." Akina Nakamori snuggled in Naoki Nagayama's arms, her tone emotional, "The media in the entertainment industry won't easily let this matter go..."

"Anyway, Akina must give the fans an explanation..." Naoki Nagayama turned his head to look at Akina in his arms and suddenly remembered the regret of his previous life, "How about... holding a press conference... using the gold screen form..."

"Announce the news?" Akina looked at Naoki Nagayama, "It will cause a public opinion storm, right?"

"Anyway, we can't hide, it's better to control it in our own hands..."

"..... Mm~"

After thinking about it, Akina Nakamori didn't mean to refuse. After all, although she didn't want the wedding to be too luxurious, she still wanted to announce the news of her marriage to everyone~

"Also~" Naoki Nagayama said again, "After the gold screen, let's go and register, okay?"

"Mm~"

The moonlight outside the window was like water, and the branches and leaves of the cherry tree were covered with a layer of silver fine gauze, standing quietly in the courtyard... The warm light in the study was full of warmth~

The next day was a good day, with blue sky and white clouds, and the autumn was high and refreshing~

Since yesterday, a restlessness had been spreading in the entertainment industry. Some well-informed media said with certainty that they had received the wedding invitations of Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori!

They must be lying, because there wasn't a single invitation given to the media!

However, this news spread with nose and eyes, and even the date and place of the wedding were said clearly. There were also media who got the news from the famous old tailor who made the wedding kimono, saying that Akina Nakamori's wedding kimono was being made urgently... I heard the price tripled!

So from the morning, the phone at Burning Production was blown up, and even the phone at the Tree Friends building kept ringing...

Naoki Nagayama, who came to the Tree Friends building, happened to run into Otomo Yoshimura~

"Naoki-san... the phone hasn't stopped since the morning!" Otomo Yoshimura pointed to the phone at the front desk and said to Naoki Nagayama, "If it weren't for no other way, I would have wanted to let Hua-chan pull out the phone line!"

"Hahaha, it's really hard for Hua-chan~"

Naoki Nagayama showed an apologetic smile to Xing Jiahua. This girl had just hung up a phone, and another one rang. Her face was full of helplessness. After all, as a receptionist, she couldn't not answer the phone. What if it was a cooperation?

Naoki Nagayama knew how to stimulate employees' enthusiasm for work:

"I'll add more to your year-end bonus!"

Hearing this, the expression on Xing Jiahua's face instantly became happy. She knew that Naoki-san always kept his word!

"..."

Otomo Yoshimura looked at his president's generous style of giving money without saying a word, and couldn't help shaking his head... The company is not operated like this. How can you give money to employees at will? This is a destruction of the company's assessment system!

How can he manage the company in the future? How can he handle those employees?!

What? Rely on giving money to motivate?

That is absolutely impossible! Capitalists never take money out of their pockets!

Naoki Nagayama and Otomo Yoshimura came to the office together, and then took out an invitation from his arms:

"Otomo-san... this is my wedding invitation, you must come~"

"Mm, of course~" Otomo Yoshimura took it and looked at it. The simple shell and gold-stamped text were low-key and luxurious, "Is this the invitation that was discovered by the media?"

"Yes..."

"How many did you send?"

"Not many... but the entertainment industry, it definitely can't be hidden~"

"Then..."

"Akina and I plan to hold a press conference to explain the situation to everyone..." Naoki Nagayama had a smile on his face, "After all, marriage is not a bad thing that needs to be hidden~"

"..."

Otomo Yoshimura looked at the expression on Naoki Nagayama's face and finally nodded: "Forget it, as long as you have considerations~"

"By the

"And also for Shuichi-san..."

Naoki Nagayama said.

"By the way, let's get our stories straight... after being asked about my marriage to Akina, just tell them we will hold a press conference~"

"Is there nothing else?"

"Nothing else!" Naoki Nagayama said with a calm face!

"... It just so happens I have things to do here, and it's quite inconvenient for you to be at the filming base every day..." Otomo Yoshimura took a thick stack of forms out of a drawer. "Naoki-san, it's that time of year again for year-end bonuses. The company has grown steadily this year, and the staff has increased a lot... the workload has also increased a lot!"

"... Th... this... isn't this something you can handle, Otomo-san?" Naoki Nagayama looked at the thick stack of forms, and instantly had the urge to run away.

"How can that be! You are the president of the company after all... such a big matter still requires you to decide!" Otomo Yoshimura grabbed Naoki Nagayama's arm. "At the very least, the year-end bonuses for middle management and above need to be confirmed by you personally!"

"Are Shuichi-san's and mine in there too!"

"Aren't you two taking dividends?!" Naoki Nagayama felt the strength on his arm and knew he couldn't escape.

"Dividends also need to be confirmed by you!"

"......."

At the front entrance of the agency, two rows of staff stood between the cars and the gate, separating the reporters outside.

Escorted by Norinori Masayuki, Akina Nakamori ducked into the agency's gate as soon as she got out of the car, hearing only the click-clack of shutters and the constant white light of flashbulbs...

"Akina-chan, are you getting married?!" "Is it at the end of the month?" "Is the invitation real?" "Do you have anything to say to your fans?" "......"

Question after question came from outside the gate, and it wasn't until she walked inside the headquarters that she couldn't hear them anymore.

"Sure enough, the news travels fast and they act quickly!" In the office, Akina Nakamori took off her sunglasses and sighed to Maki Ueda, "They were surrounding us early in the morning!"

"That's not all~" Publicity manager Yoshiaki Tanaka walked over to Akina Nakamori, poured a cup of hot water, and said, "The phones haven't stopped ringing since last night!"

"There were even people posing as fans trying to sneak in and hide in the utility room, wanting to stake out Akina-chan~...."

"..... That's truly terrifying...."

Akina Nakamori shrank her head; fortunately, she went straight home last night.

She looked around and asked:

"Has Hanami-san arrived?"

"He might have to wait a while..." Yoshiaki Tanaka said, "Many people know Hanami-san's address... he might not be able to leave his house."

People in the entertainment industry still haven't found Akina Nakamori's address, so in the event they can't find her, if they want to know information immediately, they can only find the president of the agency... or someone else...

"Yabai!" Akina Nakamori suddenly remembered that her old home address was also known to others, "As for my mother..."

"Don't worry..." Norinori Masayuki reassured her, "There's no way they could get to Kiyose so quickly... once the agency releases the news, the media will settle down."

Regarding the press conference, Akina Nakamori naturally had already told Norinori Masayuki.

"Hmm... I suppose so~" Now, holding a press conference has become an essential step~

After waiting for several dozen minutes at the agency, Akira Hanami finally arrived at the headquarters. As soon as he entered, he saw Akina Nakamori chatting and laughing happily with the staff... his expression turned somewhat displeased...

"Akina! Come to the office with me for a moment!"

"Hai~~~" Akina Nakamori started walking over, then remembered something and took an item out of her bag.

"Akina... your invitation is..."

Being blocked at his front door by the media early in the morning, asking about marriage, and saying the invitation was already public... Akira Hanami was confused. Seeing Akina, he just wanted to reprimand her when he discovered she was handing him an invitation...

"It's this... I gave a few to close friends yesterday..." Akina Nakamori said, "Because they are all close friends in the industry, I gave them personally after the qualifiers... I'll give you yours, Hanami-san, as soon as I see you today!"

Looking at Akina Nakamori's innocent and sincere appearance, the anger in Akira Hanami's stomach suddenly dissipated... the tone of his original reprimand turned into a complaint...

"Really... you should have communicated with the agency sooner... Akina, doing this puts us in a very passive position~"

"Hai~ Sumimasen!" Akina Nakamori immediately apologized honestly~

"......" Akira Hanami couldn't say anything more.

"Since the invitations have been sent out, we will contact the relevant media to reveal the specific news..." Akira Hanami said, "It's better not to let everyone speculate about this kind of thing; just give them the correct information... for this period of time, Akina, you should also keep a low profile, otherwise you will be surrounded by reporters!"

"Hai~"

Akina Nakamori nodded, then said to Akira Hanami,

"Hanami-san... Naoki-san and I have thought about it, the news of the marriage is better announced from our own mouths after all..."

"??? Akina-chan, what do you mean?"

"Hai, Naoki-san and I want to hold a press conference... to sincerely announce the happy news of our marriage..." Akina Nakamori said earnestly, "Let's use the gold folding screen format to announce the good news!"

"!!!"

"Naoki-san is participating too?"

"Yes!"

"!!"

Hearing this news, Akira Hanami paced the office a few times, unable to contain himself. Such a press conference could be said to be going to shake the entire entertainment industry!

It must be handled properly!

"Akina-chan, I understand!" Akira Hanami finally stopped and said to Akina Nakamori, "Regarding the press conference, I will arrange it carefully!"

"Hai, Arigato~"

A brilliant smile appeared on Akina Nakamori's face, and then she said,

"Also, Hanami-san, you must come to the wedding~"

Looking at this face, from the immaturity of her debut to the brightness of today, Akira Hanami was stunned for a moment with emotion, but after coming to his senses, he nodded earnestly:

"Of course!"
