Chapter 980: As a wife, one must take precautions!!!

Naoki Nagayama recently developed a new hobby... when resting, he likes to press his ear against Akina's belly to listen to the movement inside~

Because at a certain time before, Akina suddenly said happily that she felt the baby's fetal movement, truly feeling the movement of the new life, which made Naoki Nagayama curious~

And on the other hand, pressing against the soft belly... is very comfortable...

"Naoki-san, you can't hear it by listening like this!" Akina, sitting on the sofa, held her husband's head helplessly. "There is no regularity to when she moves..."

"If I harass her more, she will always have some reaction..." Naoki Nagayama rubbed it, seemingly feeling the baby's dissatisfaction. "I'm wondering, will she kick me?"

"..." I don't know what the baby is thinking now, but I really want to kick you right now!

After Naoki Nagayama sat up straight, looking at the still gloomy weather outside, he was a little worried:

"It looks like this cold air is going to stay for a long time..."

*The Legend of Hayato* is currently a hit, but the weather hasn't been cooperative, which makes Naoki Nagayama a bit unhappy... If the weather were better, the number of viewers should have expanded a lot.

But even under such harsh conditions, this first movie released in the New Year still achieved excellent results. According to preliminary rough estimates, the first day's box office should reach 80 million... This is already the box office of many movies!

Come to think of it, it might be because the economy is getting better. After the *Plaza Accord* was signed last September, Japan's stock market rose a lot, foreign trade also developed rapidly, and many overseas markets were opened...

Big capital made a lot of money, and workers naturally got a share of the soup... Many people have extra money in their hands, so it drove consumption... Everyone is coming out to watch movies!

So this *The Legend of Hayato* happened to meet a good time, and the quality itself is excellent. With the praise in the media and newspapers, the reputation continues to rise, and more and more people want to see it in the cinema.

"I wonder when it will snow?" Akina glanced outside and asked. "Is Naoki-san going out today?"

"I don't want to, but I have to participate in the New Year's work start..."

Yeah, the short holiday has ended, and the workers have to enter the field again!

Naoki Nagayama is no longer sensitive to holidays. Although the holiday started on December 29 last year, Akina had to participate in the Kohaku Uta Gassen and the Record Awards, and he had to make final adjustments to *The Legend of Hayato* so it could be released on January 3...

Plus, they had to go to both sides' hometowns to pay New Year's respects after the New Year, so the two of them almost only rested for one day during the whole holiday... Fortunately, they can rest well afterward~

However, the cattle and horses working for him have to go to work, and as a capitalist, he still has to come forward to appease them~

"Are you not coming back at noon?" Akina asked.

"Hmm..." Naoki Nagayama thought for a while. If he is at Tree Friend, he might be pulled into a drinking party. "I'll be back!"

"And in the afternoon, aren't we going to interview the caregiver?! After all, she will be staying at home for more than half a year... we still have to take it seriously!"

Today in the afternoon, they are going to the housekeeping company because they entrusted them to screen experienced pregnancy caregivers, so they have to interview them in person.

"Hmm... the room has been cleaned up..."

Now that Shanying Yuan is so big, naturally there is no shortage of rooms. Cleaning up a nanny room on the first floor is not much smaller than the guest bedroom.

The New Year has just passed, and the festive atmosphere of the holiday is still very strong.

Like in China, when Japanese people go to work after the New Year, they will also say congratulatory words like "Happy New Year," "Congratulations on the New Year," "Good luck," and "Congratulations on getting rich" to their colleagues.

But this year, the employees coming to work at the Tree Friend building passed by the parking lot, and when they said these words, their mouths were full of exclamation... The sound of discussion began to spread among the workers.

Because there were two brand-new luxury cars parked here, which were very conspicuous among the cars in the parking lot... and they hadn't seen them before the New Year.

"Is that a Toyota Century? Is it Naoki-san's?"

"How is that possible, even the license plate is different!"

"The other one is a Mercedes-Benz 500! Mercedes-Benz's flagship luxury car last year!"

"I haven't seen them... Whose car is it? Or did the company invite some guests?!"

When everyone learned from the front desk Xing Jiahua that these two were actually the new cars of Yin Tangxiu and Fangcun Dayou, these guys said "So that's how it is," "It's Dayou-san and the others," and "This is as it should be..." but they were silently complaining in their hearts, "How much money did one or two executives make last year to be so showy!"

But at this time, Xing Jiahua waved her hand gently, signaling the employees to lean over, as if she had a secret to tell them:

"I'll tell you secretly, don't tell anyone else!"

"These two cars were both given to Dayou-san and Xiuyi-san by Naoki-san! He said it was a New Year's gift for friends!"

"I heard from Xiuyi-san that they were delivered directly to the door... and they were startled!"

"!!!"

The employees opened their eyes wide. Is Naoki-san actually so inhumanly generous to friends?!

Then this secret that wasn't a secret spread throughout Tree Friend at the fastest speed... Hearing that their president was actually so generous, even though the year-end bonus last year doubled, a thought suddenly arose in the minds of the employees...

Naoki-san, I also want to be friends with you!!! Is there a lack of pendants on your thighs?

So when Naoki Nagayama came to the Tree Friend building, the greetings from the employees were all a level more enthusiastic... as if they wanted to stick to him stickily.

"Naoki-san~~~ Happy New Year... How was your holiday?"

"... Uh, it was very good... Thank you~"

"Happy New Year... Naoki-san! I heard the effect of the new movie release is very good, sure enough, Naoki-san is the most amazing!"

"Uh... hahahaha, Happy New Year, thank you for the praise..."

"Naoki-san... we will definitely work twice as hard in the New Year!"

"... Then that's really hard work for you~"

"Naoki-san~~~"

"..."

Naoki Nagayama only felt goosebumps. Although it is said that people see smiling faces after success, such smiling faces are a bit unbearable~

After finally dismissing the overly enthusiastic employees, Naoki Nagayama came to his office and couldn't help but sigh:

"What's going on... how did everyone become like perverts after a New Year?!"

So taking advantage of the opportunity when Suzuki Xingxia knocked on the door to pour coffee, he asked:

"Xingxia-chan, why is everyone so enthusiastic today?!"

"Everyone has always been very enthusiastic toward Naoki-san~" Suzuki Xingxia laughed.

"It's overly enthusiastic today!!!"

"Haha, that's because everyone knows that Naoki-san gave Dayou-san and Xiuyi-san luxury cars... Everyone is very envious and wants to be Naoki-san's good friend~"

Naoki Nagayama was stunned: "..."Everyone knows?"

"Everyone knows!" Suzuki Xingxia nodded with a smile, and then slowly exited the office.

"..."

Yabai, how did everyone know?!

Just at this time, the office door was knocked, and Yin Tangxiu walked in with a giggle:

"Naoki-san, I publicized your glorious deeds!!! Now everyone knows!"

"..." So the culprit is here!

"Xiuyi-san... why did you publicize it..." Shouldn't this kind of thing be done quietly to make a fortune?!

"Of course it's to highlight Naoki-san's generosity!" Yin Tangxiu said with justification. "This way everyone knows that Tree Friend's president is a president who cherishes old feelings and is generous to friends!

This will make Naoki-san and our Tree Friend's reputation in the industry rise a lot!"

Indeed, no matter in which era, the reputation of a private company president and the company's reputation are closely related... Sometimes the president's reputation is even greater than the company's... If you use this point well, it can bring great benefits to the company.

Just like a certain rice company in the future, many people don't believe in the company, but believe in the reputation of a certain army~

Of course, this is also why some listed companies in the future will downplay the existence of the controller... After all, if the president is careless abroad, the listed group can evaporate 60 billion in two minutes...

"... Actually, I didn't mean that..."

If possible, Naoki Nagayama actually didn't want this reputation.

Giving them luxury cars was purely a private act, and he didn't have the idea of building a persona.

Just at this time, Fangcun Dayou also walked in, and he also heard what Yin Tangxiu said:

"Yeah, I also know Naoki-san didn't mean to publicize it widely, but this is just killing two birds with one stone... It's good for everyone..."

"..." Alright, you guys have the final say~

After chatting with Fangcun Dayou and Yin Tangxiu about interesting things during the New Year for a while, it was time:

"Let's go, let's go talk to the employees..."

When they came to the large conference room, the employees had already filled it up, and after the three executives entered, there was a warm round of applause...

The first to speak was Fangcun Dayou:

"Colleagues, the New Year has arrived... We achieved very good results last year, and this year we must also..."

He spoke in a standard way, his tone was a bit serious, full of encouragement for the employees. After all, he is the one who manages daily affairs, so he still needs to maintain a bit of a serious attitude!

And Yin Tangxiu was much more relaxed:

"Everyone, *The Legend of Hayato* is currently a hit, and I have provided an internal discount here, so everyone can let friends and family go watch it~ By the way, Tree Friend Pictures still has quite a few plans this year, many new directors are at the helm, and we want to try anime movies... We will announce the planned projects in a while, and those interested can communicate with their superiors in advance..."

He talked about the most profitable film business, including New Year's goals, etc... and also encouraged Tree Friend's internal employees to choose projects independently...

This is the cultivation of employees, and also letting new directors try to be on their own...

After all, Naoki Nagayama's wife is pregnant now, so he will definitely reduce his frontline filming, and Yin Tangxiu himself will also lean toward overall coordination. It would be very good to be able to shoot one or two a year... The rest are only Xiaosen Zhengxiao and Mudao Xu... The reserve directors are seriously insufficient!

At the end, Naoki Nagayama walked onto the stage...

He looked around and laughed first:

"Haha, I won't say much..."

"The company will develop very fast this year, there will be many businesses, and incentive measures will keep up... I hope in the New Year... every Tree Friend employee can pick up a new car!!!"

"Oh oh oh oh!!!" "Hahahaha~" "That's great!" "Just waiting for it!" "..."

One sentence made Tree Friend's employees feel surging~

Yin Tangxiu and Fangcun Dayou glanced at Naoki Nagayama and shook their heads. In terms of motivating employees, sure enough, only Naoki-san can be so at ease!

In the afternoon, Naoki Nagayama and Akina came to the headquarters of the housekeeping company together.

This is a small office building, and the housekeeping company's office staff doesn't exceed ten, but it is clean and tidy inside, and the storage is reasonable... everywhere reflects the professionalism of housekeeping services.

"Nagayama-san, Mrs. Nagayama..."

Business Minister Ri Gao Shangren served hot tea to the two, and then handed over the list of candidates,

"These three are the candidates we provided... all are caregivers with experience in maternity hospitals, who interrupted their careers for various reasons..."

Ri Gao Shangren is very familiar with Naoki Nagayama and Akina Zhongsen. After all, his company goes to the two's home to clean every week.

Come to think of it, they came into contact when the two hadn't become famous, and then the employment relationship has continued until now... This is Japan's tradition; once a stable business relationship is formed, it will not be changed at will.

And finding a caregiver is something the two of them can't do with great fanfare, and even the candidates only know they are going to be caregivers for a newly married couple.

They didn't even tell them the names~

"These three have already served many couples who are pregnant, and have also received praise in the previous employers' homes..."

"They have also cooperated with our company many times... They are not people who talk too much, and they also have a good reputation in protecting the privacy of employers..."

Naoki Nagayama and Akina looked at the information of the three candidates. They were all middle-aged women in their forties, had professional pregnancy care experience, and looked like diligent and capable people...

"Minister Ri Gao..."

Naoki Nagayama actually knows that the candidates sent to them must be carefully selected, people with no obvious shortcomings in skills and personality, so he is considering other aspects,

"These three all have children, right?"

"Ah... yes!"

"Then, among these three, whose children are over 14?"

"???" Ri Gao Shangren didn't understand, but still chose one from the three documents. "Mrs. Da Cun's son is in high school..."

"Then don't take her!" Naoki Nagayama said decisively.

"? Why is this?" Ri Gao Shangren was surprised. "Mrs. Da Cun worked in a children's hospital before, has very rich nursing experience, and also has a set of ways to take care of newborns... Her personality is also..."

"... Because her son is a teenager..." Naoki Nagayama looked at Akina beside him. "Then it is very likely to be Akina's fan..."

Among teenagers over fourteen, four or five out of ten are definitely Akina's fans!

"..."

"I believe Mrs. Da Cun has no problems at work, but if her son knows she is working for Akina, then maybe some trouble will arise..."

If fans know Akina's address, or come to the door in person... sasaeng fans, fanatical fans, maybe they will even take pictures secretly...

In short, it is very troublesome...

Ri Gao Shangren didn't know if Naoki Nagayama was too cautious, but after all, he is the client, and the client is God~

"Then let's choose from the remaining two. Mrs. Chuan Duan's son just entered kindergarten, and Mrs. Ye Zhong's daughter is in elementary school..." Ri Gao Shangren immediately introduced the next two.

At this time, Akina said on the side:

"Mrs. Chuan Duan won't work either!"

"?"

"If the baby just entered kindergarten, she must not be able to leave her mother... If she is a live-in caregiver, she can probably only go back on weekends... I can't let them be separated..."

Actually, this Mrs. Chuan Duan is not very old, and just finished the lactation period not long ago... her chest is too broad...

In a few months, it will be the last three months, and she won't be able to share a room with Naoki-san, and the last three months will be summer, so she won't wear much... Although she has confidence in Naoki-san, if they meet every day, it is also very dangerous!

Wife is pregnant, husband and housekeeper... This is a plot often seen in more than a dozen TV dramas and girls' comics!!!

Akina, as a wife, must take precautions!!!

"So that's how it is~" Ri Gao Shangren only felt that Akina Zhongsen was indeed very kind. "Then only Mrs. Ye Zhong Moli is left... Nagayama-san, Mrs. Nagayama, do you want to meet her?!"

"Hmm... please~"

The subsequent interview was naturally very smooth; it was just that Ye Zhong Moli was very surprised when she saw it was Naoki Nagayama and Akina Zhongsen... but she adjusted quickly~

Among the families she served, there were also social celebrities, but it had nothing to do with her; just take good care of the pregnant woman! ===== CHAPTER 981 =====
