Chapter 962: The biggest workaholic is actually myself?!

~15 min read 2,839 words

In the last month before the New Year, the noisy Tokyo became more and more flashy.

The commercial street started to have year-end discount promotion activities and flashy advertisements, and even the magazines and newspapers in the street newsstands were all kinds of year-end reviews and special topics.

Year-end plans were played on TV, annual songs were sung on the radio, and the rehearsal progress of the Red and White Song Festival and the selection process of annual films also made the audience full of curiosity.

Workers were doing year-end summaries in office buildings, housewives were buying New Year's goods in shopping malls, young people in trench coats were shopping with gorgeous girls, chatting about activities like song festivals or carnivals, and their faces seemed to have a festive look of approaching the New Year~

It was even more lively at night. The brightly lit night market and the neon-lit nightclubs were adjacent to each other. The chanting of the temple and the rock songs of the bar were only separated by a street. Joyful tourists and drunken drinkers walked together in the sleepless city, enjoying the best time in the scattered halo......

In such an atmosphere, Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori returned to their residence in Chiyoda.

The two lived in Shizuoka for two days after getting married, visited their parents and grandfather properly, and only returned to Tokyo now.....

"Woof woof woof!!!"

Ying Taro ran into Shanying Yuan excitedly as soon as he got off the car, patrolling everywhere in the flower bed and grass, greeting the cherry blossom trees in the yard, and marking territory in the corner of the wall.....

"Ying Taro!" Naoki Nagayama saw the dog raising its leg towards the rockery of the dry landscape and hurriedly scolded, "If you dare to pee in the dry landscape, I will send you to be castrated!!!"

"......"

Although Ying Taro didn't fully understand what castrated meant, the malice in the master's tone was very obvious, so he ran away with his tail between his legs~

"Hahaha~" Akina followed from behind and laughed when she saw this scene, "Naoki-san only knows how to bully Ying Taro!"

"......"

Naoki Nagayama looked at the newlywed wife in disbelief. In this family, who bullies Ying Taro the most?

Ying Taro's ears are bigger than before, who twisted them?

"Humph humph~"

Perhaps her husband's gaze was a bit dazzling, Akina pretended not to care and carried the cat cage into the room...... Miaotaro ate catnip and hadn't recovered yet~

The remaining luggage in the car was moved down by Naoki Nagayama. After all, Akina was already showing her pregnancy now, so naturally, she couldn't do this heavy work.

Because there was a specialized cleaning company, there was no feeling of dust in Shanying Yuan, just like when they went back before.

Akina sat on the sofa relaxedly after putting Miaotaro away, sighing:

"Still home is comfortable~"

"Indeed....."

Every place in Shanying Yuan was arranged according to the habits and hobbies of the two of them, and it was full of memories, so naturally, they relaxed as soon as they walked in.

After putting away the luggage and collapsing on the sofa with Akina, like two salted fish that had just landed, they didn't want to move for a while.

"There shouldn't be anything today, right?" Akina asked next to him.

"There is...." Naoki Nagayama sighed, "I have to go to Tree Friends Capital later...... and communicate properly with Yuantai-san....."

Genta Nakai came back once, so naturally he wouldn't leave immediately. There were many things to communicate with Naoki Nagayama, but it was really inconvenient for the first two days of marriage.

"Eh~~~" Akina pouted to express dissatisfaction, "Actually want to leave the pregnant wife at home alone!"

"......."

Naoki Nagayama looked at Akina who was pretending to be pitiful, and couldn't help but pinch her soft cheeks with both hands...... Now that she had baby fat again, the feel was even better!

"Isn't Maki-chan and Mingxing-san coming over!"

There were some larger luggage for the wedding, including several sets of wedding kimono, which were entrusted to them to help send back.

And these formal wear and other luggage must be properly placed and stored..... Akina couldn't be alone at all.

"Naoki-san..... don't pinch my face anymore!"

Akina took away Naoki Nagayama's hand with hatred. For her husband's recent tendency to pinch her face, she felt it was a bit too much...... The face would get bigger the more it was pinched!

"But the feel is too good.... can't bear to~" Naoki Nagayama teased Akina with a giggle, "Let me pinch a few times and it doesn't matter....."

"Annoying~~"

Finally, Akina was forced to leave the sofa and started to settle the gifts and such while waiting for the arrival of the two agents.

Speaking of which, she also had to communicate with Burning Productions about the Record Awards, as well as the progress of the Red and White Song Festival......

Until the end of the year, this was her most important thing......

After that, she can finally rest easy and focus on the pregnancy!

Naoki Nagayama left after Maki Ueda and Norinori Mingxing arrived.

As Akina's pregnancy time grew longer, it seemed a bit unsafe to be alone at home. In addition, there were some inconvenient places in life. Naoki Nagayama was thinking about whether to hire a nutritionist and a nanny.

Anyway, with his financial resources and the space of Shanying Yuan, these could be afforded...... In fact, if it weren't for the fact that both of them didn't like strangers in the house, with Naoki Nagayama's current status and family property, he could completely hire a group of servants to serve the family.

Now his friends, Shuichi Ido, Tomo Otomo, and Genta Nakai..... almost all had specialized live-in nannies.

"Find properly later, it's best to find some personnel with a good reputation...."

This thought flashed through his mind, and Naoki Nagayama also thought of finding familiar people to introduce some nannies with good work attitudes and who could keep secrets...... After all, Akina and he had very high requirements for privacy~

After getting off the highway, Ginza arrived.

Naoki Nagayama drove to the office building of Tree Friends Capital and took the elevator to the 12th floor.

"Naoki-san!" Front desk Zhouxiang Jinjing bowed after seeing the boss, "Yuantai-san is already waiting for you~"

"Mm, I know~" Naoki Nagayama nodded and handed the gift box in his hand to the dedicated little sister, "This is the wedding candy I brought, Jinjing-chan also help distribute it to others~"

"Hai!" Zhouxiang Jinjing took it happily, and then reacted, "Ah, haven't congratulated Naoki-san on your happy wedding yet!"

"Haha~ I received it~"

Waving his hand, Naoki Nagayama walked towards Genta Nakai's office, leaving the front desk little sister unpacking the gift box in a good mood.

In the office, Genta Nakai was not as leisurely as Naoki Nagayama.....

It was hard to come back once, so he first had to understand the operation of the company in all aspects. Simple overseas calls couldn't be comprehensive.

Although the investment situation in the United States was very important, and although the scale of funds was much higher than the capital disk of Tree Friends Capital itself, the business of Tree Friends Capital itself was not small, and it was also the guarantee for the company's existence.....

Otherwise, what was the use of this investment company, and what was the use of him being the company manager? Might as well just be Naoki Nagayama's investment consultant!

Looking at his friend frowning and reviewing the form, Naoki Nagayama knocked on the office door:

"Yuantai-san!"

"Ah, Naoki-san..... you're here~" Genta Nakai saw Naoki Nagayama's arrival, put down the document in his hand, and greeted with a smile, "Returned to Tokyo just after getting married...... Originally you should be on your honeymoon, right?"

"It doesn't matter..... Originally there was no plan to go on a honeymoon at the end of the year~"

Naoki Nagayama and Genta Nakai sat on the sofa and chatted,

"Akina has work arrangements, and I also have movies to produce....."

Genta Nakai poured tea and handed it to Naoki Nagayama: "It's really hard work..... Then when are you going on your honeymoon?"

"After the New Year~ Go to Spain~"

Naoki Nagayama smiled,

"There should be no obstacles at that time~"

By that time, Akina's body wouldn't be suitable for work, and *The Legend of Hayato* should also be online.

"Spain..... very good~"

"Yes, Akina likes this country very much....."

After chatting about some daily life, they started to communicate about today's main topic.

Three months had passed since the signing of the *Plaza Accord*, and the effect of this agreement was undoubtedly manifested....... The yen was rising sharply. Currently, it had risen from 1 US dollar to 250 yen to 1 US dollar to 210 yen, and it would soon break the 200 mark.

The investment situation in the US foreign exchange market was very optimistic, making people feel a bit scared!

"Naoki-san..... now Aldrich in the US is already a bit worried~" Genta Nakai had a smile on his face, "Even an investment manager with his experience has never tried to earn several hundred million US dollars in a few months...."

"Hahaha, is that so?" Naoki Nagayama also laughed, "When I asked him to operate it at the beginning, I thought he wouldn't be surprised!"

"Too exaggerated..... from 500 million US dollars three months ago to almost 900 million now....."

Genta Nakai sighed,

"Sometimes it feels like the funds in the account are just illusory numbers. Watching it increase little by little, so easily...... it feels a bit unreal~"

"The ones in the account were originally just numbers~" Naoki Nagayama patted his friend's shoulder, "Unless you take it out! Only then can it become real."

"Take it out?" Genta Nakai heard the keyword keenly.

"Yes....." Naoki Nagayama nodded, "Before the end of the year, I need to take out part of the funds. I want to buy high-quality assets in Japan....."

"The rest can't all be in the foreign exchange market.... can take it to buy shares of high-quality companies like IBM, Oracle, etc...."

"Ah, that's the companies you mentioned before!" Genta Nakai was very familiar as soon as he heard it.

Naoki Nagayama nodded:

"Mm, the earlier the better~"

"Also need to buy some physical assets...... mines, forests, etc....."

"Eh?? Why is this again?"

Genta Nakai didn't understand. If it were real estate, it could be understood, because Naoki Nagayama always liked to buy houses.

"Hahaha, just treat it as me buying peace of mind...... For descendants to be able to remain rich, these assets are relatively long-lasting...."

In fact, putting all assets in the financial market made Naoki Nagayama feel a bit floating...... In the traditional Eastern concept, land, mines, and forest rights are the true ballast of a family!

Finance is just a number game after all. Although up to now, the trend in his memory hasn't changed much, as his influence becomes greater and greater, and his bloodline descendants appear, the changes he causes to this world will become more and more.....

What if the financial crisis comes early.....

Genta Nakai listened to Naoki Nagayama already starting to consider for his descendants, feeling a bit emotional and surprised, and couldn't help but ask:

"Naoki-san, you are only twenty-something, is it necessary to consider the future of your descendants?"

Perhaps it was because of marriage and having children, when Naoki Nagayama said things like "planning for descendants", he appeared very calm.

"Haha, preparing early, there is definitely no mistake~ Anyway, so much money on hand is useless....."

"....."

Genta Nakai looked at Naoki Nagayama with admiring eyes, as if seeing a Nagayama family that would lie in the upper-class society of Japan in the future taking shape......

Perhaps the ancestors of the current nobility, the first generation, also laid a solid foundation for their descendants early like this!!!

"Naoki-san!" Genta Nakai came back to his senses, "I want to buy too!"

"?"

"I also want to lay down a country for Xiangtai that can be passed down to descendants!!!"

"......."

Naoki Nagayama was silent for a while, thousands of complaints hidden in his mouth, but in the end, he only said three words,

"Ganbatte!"

"Mm!"

In Tree Friends Capital, Naoki Nagayama and Genta Nakai chatted for quite a while, and by the way, set the annual bonus for other investment managers of Tree Friends Capital.

Then he drove to the Tree Friends Building located in Ikebukuro.

"Naoki-san?" Xing Jiahua was very surprised when she saw Naoki Nagayama at this time, "Why did you come over now?"

"This is wedding candy..... trouble Hua-chan to help distribute it to everyone....." Naoki Nagayama also sent the wedding candy over, "Otomo-san and them are here, right?"

"Otomo-san went to find a client today..... went out at noon, didn't come back...." Xing Jiahua accepted the wedding candy and put it aside, answering Naoki Nagayama's question first, "Xiuyi-san, these few days are in Ota Ward, preparing for the movie..... didn't come to the company."

"Actually none of them are here~"

"Mm......" Xing Jiahua asked curiously, "Naoki-san didn't you just get married? Why did you come back so soon?"

"Because I have to work~" Naoki Nagayama smiled, "Need to check the production progress of the movie...."

"Not going on a honeymoon?"

"Temporarily not....."

Chatting with the little sister for a while, Naoki Nagayama came to the new editing room of the Tree Friends Building.

Seeing the sign "Exclusive for *The Legend of Hay

The sound of the door opening instantly drew their attention~

"Naoki-san?!" X3

"Muneo-kun, Tomoyuki-kun..." Naoki Nagayama greeted the staff, then asked with some surprise, "Masataka-kun, why are you here too?"

"I just came to take a look~" Masataka Komori replied with a smile, "I don't have any work at the end of the year, right... I feel a bit idle..."

"... Idle?"

Naoki Nagayama looked at his eldest apprentice with surprise.

"Isn't being idle a good thing? It's almost the end of the year?!"

Masataka Komori's workload was actually quite full this year, and the Tokyo International Film Festival a while back was also very exhausting... so it's normal to rest a little at the end of the year~

"But... when I get idle, I feel like something is very wrong..." Masataka Komori smiled bitterly, "After staying at home for a few days, I feel anxious all over..."

"Uh... the work pressure at our Tree Friend shouldn't be that high... why would you all be anxious?"

Naoki Nagayama touched his forehead, feeling a bit surprised. Under his influence, the management at Tree Friend had always been very relaxed... there were no monthly performance reviews or forced layoffs... and the pay was also very generous...

How could it make people anxious?!

At this moment... Masataka Komori, Muneo Matsuo, and Tomoyuki Nishimoto all silently looked at Naoki Nagayama in front of them...

"..."

Realizing their gaze, Naoki Nagayama pointed at himself.

"Because of me?"

The three of them silently exchanged glances, and then began to speak.

"We shot a movie in September, held the Tokyo Film Festival in October, and have to shoot another movie in November... and rush to finish it for release early next year..."

"Not long after '101st Proposal', another project went online..."

"Naoki-san, you came to work just a few days after getting married..."

You, the absolute core of Tree Friend, came to work at the company three days after your wedding... and you still have to produce a movie by the end of the year...

With a workaholic president like this, how could the atmosphere of the entire company be relaxed...

"Tsk tsk tsk... is it really because of me?!"

Naoki Nagayama sighed. He hadn't expected that, without realizing it, he had become the biggest workaholic in the entire company!!

Actually, he didn't feel that tired himself... after all, as the one at the top, he only needed to arrange for others to do the work...

No wonder those bosses always feel that their employees aren't working at full capacity...

But looking at it this way, the pace of the entire company is indeed very tense...

"I didn't expect this to be the reason..." Naoki Nagayama shook his head. He realized the pressure the employees of Tree Friend Group were under this year, and instantly thought of a solution!

"I hadn't realized that everyone was so exhausted..."

"So..."

"I'll talk to Otomo-san... everyone's year-end bonus will be doubled!!!"

"!!!"

The few people in the editing room instantly perked up!

Godfather, is that for real?!

If you say that, I'm not sleepy anymore!!!

"But you still need to work hard on the editing for 'The Legend of Hayato'!"

"Yes!!!" X3

Looking at the three people with renewed light in their eyes, Naoki Nagayama nodded with satisfaction...

What's the harm in being a workaholic, what's the harm in a little anxiety, as long as the bonus is sufficient... everything else is just fleeting clouds!
