Tokyo Bubble Life

Chapter 1082 Chapter 1091, Go check it out! The history of his rise to wealth must be unclean!!

Even in summer, Tokyo's core area is still bustling with people on weekends.

Those young people with unlimited energy are not afraid of the hot weather. As long as there is a new and interesting place, they will not miss it.

Ginza Commercial Street has newly opened stores, department stores selling a wide variety of goods, and branded clothing. The European-style streets and the Japanese-style streets are only a few hundred meters away. There are also countless restaurants, KTVs, cinemas, entertainment centers, and other places for leisure and entertainment.

As long as you want, you can't finish shopping for several days~

Just when ordinary people thought that this was the most prosperous place in Japan, a movie allowed people to see the real lives of the rich. They also realized that Tokyo in the eyes of the rich and Tokyo in the eyes of ordinary people are completely different places!

“Tiger of Ginza.”

Nakagawa Daiharu, who had just watched this movie with his girlfriend, was still sighing as he walked out of the cinema.

"Those who can gain a foothold in Ginza are indeed ambitious people, and they are all ferocious beasts of the capital world! Ginza is indeed the world of capital! I wish I could be as rich as this one day."

I am still thinking about the luxury cars, beauties, feasting and revelry that awaits me after I become rich.

Suddenly, he felt a piercing pain in his arm, and saw his girlfriend Koizumi Kiyomi twisting his arm angrily!

"It hurts. Ji Yi-chan, why are you pinching me?!"

"You men all become bad when you have money!" Koizumi Jiyi said bitterly, "You were envious when you watched the movie just now, right?!"

"Hey, this is me."

Nakagawa Daiharu hesitated and tried to explain.

"This movie actually wants to warn the audience that wealth is just a passing cloud! Look, at the end, the protagonist has almost nothing! This is all a dream!"

"whispering sound!"

Koizumi Kiyoshi didn't believe it at all, and said it with conviction.

"When you looked at that heroine just now, your eyes were wide open!"

"How could I? I didn't. You're talking nonsense!" Nakagawa Daiharu immediately refuted three times, "Saejima Nao is just a vase in the movie!"

"Look, you said you had it, but I even wrote down your name!"

Koizumi Kiyomi became even angrier and threw her boyfriend with her backpack.

"Scumbag! Break up!"

"Eh? Ehhhh?!"

Nakagawa Daiharu ran after him in panic. He had obviously come to watch a movie happily, but how come he didn't even have a girlfriend after the movie? !

In fact, this young couple is just an exception. Most viewers actually have a lot of feelings after watching the show.

There is no doubt that "Tora no Koro" is a movie for men!

When a man goes from being down and out to being successful, from being poor to being rich, his material conditions, his partner, his mental experience, etc. all undergo tremendous changes.

And the core of all these changes is wealth!

The Japanese economy is booming. After the Plaza Accord, the wealth bubble of the Japanese people continues to grow. The whole society is shrouded in an unreal psychedelic atmosphere. Consumerism is prevalent.

What should I do if I have money?

Eat better, buy better, play better?

The movie "Tiger of Ginza" fits the current social situation perfectly and opens up a new world for the audience who suddenly became rich.

It turns out that you can season food with gold foil, it turns out that you can buy goods by scanning the counter directly, it turns out that you can also have fun like this?!

The rich can spend tens of millions on a private room in a club for a night and millions on a single meal. For them, contraband items are just a thrill and the beauties that are hard to come by are just a foil to set the atmosphere!

In Japan's class-fixated society, "Tiger of Ginza" has lifted a corner of the upper heaven, leaving ordinary people alone~

As word of mouth spread, more and more people went to the cinema to watch this amazing movie.

Then when they came out, they all looked like they had just opened their eyes because it was reported before that the movie was adapted from the story of Naoki Nagayama, and many viewers also talked about Naoki Nagayama.

"So, guys like Naoki Nagayama all live this kind of life?"

"Wait, Naoki Nagayama is not bankrupt!"

"Maybe the Financial Bureau has already been watching him."

"."

There were endless discussions, and some Japanese people were envious and secretly called the Ministry of Finance's reporting office.

"Go check Shuyou Capital. Maybe there really is tax evasion!"

"It's the investment company in "Tiger of Ginza""

"Go check it out! Naoki Nagayama is so rich, his history of making his fortune must be shady. The movie doesn't seem to be made up!"

"."

The entertainment industry is naturally paying close attention to Shuyou’s new movie.

Whether it is Shochiku, which is on good terms with Shuyou, or Toei, with which it has always had some conflicts, anyone working in the film industry is more or less concerned about the box office performance of "Tora no Kotobuki".

"According to data from various theaters in Tokyo, the attendance rate of Tiger of Ginza reached 90% after just one day of release."

Toei's Nakano Toru reported the performance of "Tiger of Ginza" to the general manager Takafumi Ogasawara.

“This attendance rate is already very good.”

"No water?" asked Takafumi Ogasawara.

You have to know that in order to make the data look good, some film production companies will book the theater themselves and get some "ghost audiences" to watch the movie.

"As far as I know, no~"

Nakano Toru explained,

"After all, this is a movie that Tree Friends strongly recommends this year, and the publicity in the past period of time was also very good. Although 90% attendance is a bit exaggerated, it is understandable!"

"90% occupancy"

Ogasawara Takafumi smiled and said,

"Nakano, how many days do you think this can last? Three days? A week?"

"Based on the feedback from the first batch of viewers, this movie is really good. With the influence of word of mouth, maybe it can last for... a week?"

Toru Nakano gave a conservative estimate.

In fact, Japan's film industry is booming at the moment, with new cinemas opening almost every week, and the audience's demand for watching movies far exceeds the supply.

A commercial blockbuster like "Tale of Ginza" may be able to maintain its attendance rate for a longer time.

"Is that so?" Ogasawara Takafumi sighed, "Shuyou Eiga. Naoki Nagayama, Shuichi Idou, Masataka Komori, and the director of this film Kyon Kijima. There are so many talented people!"

"Director, in terms of talent, we at Toei are not inferior to those at Shuyou!" Toru Nakano said carefully.

"Where are the talents?" Ogasawara Takafumi said disdainfully, "You?"

"."

If you weren't the director, I would have beaten you, believe it or not? !

Ogasawara Takafumi continued to sigh:

"There will be a Tokyo Film Festival in the second half of the year and this movie will be the opening film. This year's movie box office charts look like Shuyou Films takes the lion's share again."

"Director, Shuyou only has two movies this year."

"Maybe there will be another one in the fourth quarter~ You never know with Naoki Nagayama!"

"."

Indeed, it is a consensus in the industry that Naoki Nagayama can make a blockbuster movie in just one month.

People who are familiar with Naoki Nagayama, such as Masaki Kobayashi and Masahiro Shinoda, have already seen the movie at the preview, while the rest, including the directors, went to the cinema to watch it in person.

Because of an accident, the great director Kinji Fukasaku no longer goes to the cinema or watches movies with other audiences, especially movies by Shuyou!

However, as a director, he had to admire Naoki Nagayama's directing talent, and he also wanted to watch Shuyou's new movie, so he directly booked a screening room through Toei's relationship to watch it.

"Tiger of Ginza~"

This time it was not a horror movie, so Kinji Fukasaku was not too worried. He sat in the middle of the seat, enjoying the feeling of having the entire cinema to himself.

From the first scene of the movie, Kinji Fukasaku's attention is focused

Unlike ordinary audiences, he looks at the shooting techniques, the rhythm of the story, the lighting effects, etc.

"The use of the camera this time is very ordinary," Fukasaku Kinji complained, "As expected, Naoki Nagayama didn't intervene?"

"But the actor's acting is OK, and the vase is also very beautiful."

As a director who has a close relationship with the actresses he directs in his movies, he always requires the heroines of his movies to be beautiful, and this time, Nao Saejima is undoubtedly perfect.

"Consider giving her some opportunities later."

In this way, while watching the movie and complaining, Fukasaku Kinji finally gave a summary:

“An ordinary commercial film. No profound meaning.”

Even though the extravagant scenes inside surprised him a little, that was all.

After watching "Tiger of Ginza" this time, I only felt the freshness of my eyes.

At the end, there is only one feeling. Empty~

As a second-generation director in Japan, he holds a philosophy that all movies are art and reflect a certain thought or reality.

"It really looks like it's just a movie to make money."

It is no surprise that Kinji Fukasaku's film achieved a high box office because it provided the audience with a lot of sensory stimulation, including the decadent and extravagant life, which are what ordinary audiences need.

But after ten or two years, this movie will disappear.

However, his films such as "The Unrighteous War" and "Putian March", as well as Naoki Nagayama's previous films such as "Love Letter" and "Kikujiro's Summer", are always discussed repeatedly.

After leaving the cinema, the summer heat wave hit, making the elderly man who had cancer feel a little uncomfortable.

But I saw the audiences coming in and out of the cinema, the pedestrians on the street outside the door walking hurriedly towards their destinations, and looked at the fancy signs of the shops and shopping malls in the distance, as well as the crowded cars on the road.

A feeling of emotion suddenly came over me.

"Tiger of Ginza. It seems to be a perfect match for today's Japanese society!"

Under the influence of consumerism, everyone pursues the excitement brought by money, but after all the extravagance, there is only emptiness left.

"Kijima-kun"

After a road show, Komori Masataka said excitedly,

"The box office of the movie 'Ginza Tiger' may reach the level of Naoki-san!"

After looking at the attendance rates of cinemas in several cities, Masataka Komori had a hunch that the box office of this movie might reach tens of billions, possibly heading towards five billion.

In Shuyou Group, and even in the entire entertainment industry, this is a level that only a few directors can achieve!

"Not even close to Naoki-san!"

Kijima Kyon was not confused by the praises that surrounded him. Perhaps these praises could not find him.

"Naoki-san's box office success was achieved in the past two years, but this "Tiger of Ginza" was achieved this year."

"Uh, is there anything different?"

"Zheng Xiaojun, haven't you noticed?" said Kimura, "Since the beginning of this year, the box office of almost all movies in Japan has been extremely high!"

"what?"

"This shows that people have more money and more private wealth, so they have money to spend."

At this moment, Kijima Kyon actually looked like an expert, and said calmly,

"The box office of all the movies this year, including "Tiger of Ginza" directed by me, is actually inflated"

"."

Komori Masataka looked at his friend in shock.

"Oh, Kijima-kun, I haven't noticed for a while, but you've already thought so deeply!"

"."

In fact, I have been paying attention to the effect of the movie these days, and I have been reading the reviews in newspapers and media, which are mixed with some economists' analysis of the tertiary industry.

Just when we were about to continue discussing it, the lead actor Leslie Cheung and the female lead Saejima Nao finished meeting with fans and walked over.

"Director Kijima, Producer Komori, let's go to the next stop!"

"Would you like to take a short break?" Komori Masataka asked considerately, "Leslie just flew over from Hong Kong to promote the show."

"It doesn't matter, I can just rest in the car." Leslie Cheung shook his head, "Let's go to the next stop early."

He took some time out to come to Neon for promotion. He is currently recording the album "Fire of Love" in Hong Kong!

As his fame grows, artists like him have no time to rest when they are busy. Now that the Japanese market has opened up, maybe the next album will also sell well in Japan.

"Okay then. Nao-chan, let's go~"

"Hi!"

As for Nao Saejima, she didn't dare to raise any opinions. This movie "Tora no Otome" can be said to have forced her from the path of an AV actress to the path of a mainstream movie star. This is an opportunity that she must seize even if she doesn't sleep!

Naoki Nagayama at home was not affected at all. In the afternoon, the baby woke up from his sleep and was fluttering his little hands and feet.

Naoki Nagayama reached out and grabbed her hand, interacting with Xiao Xiahua~

"Naoki-mulberry"

Mingcai was a little jealous when she saw this heartwarming scene. Was her daughter really her lover in the previous life? !

"Ok?"

"It's almost been a month since Hua-chan was born. We need to prepare for the full moon banquet!"

"Full Moon Banquet?"

"Yes. Is it held in Yamazakura Courtyard?"

"Okay~"

Naoki Nagayama nodded. After the reconstruction of Yamazakurain, the space was large enough to hold a medium-sized party.

Mingcai came over and took a list:

"This is the list of people invited to the wedding banquet. Do we need to adjust some of the people for the baby's full moon banquet?"

"certainly."

Naoki Nagayama looked at the list and started planning with Akina. In addition to blessing the baby, the full moon banquet of Nagayama Natsuka also has a social meaning. In addition to family members, all the guests invited are close friends.

In the future there will be hundred-day parties, one-year-old parties, annual birthday parties, etc. Rich families like to hold more of these for their children. In fact, it is also an excuse to get together with their network of contacts and get closer.

Just like before, Naoki Nagayama held a cherry blossom viewing party every year after the cherry blossoms at Yamazakurain were in bloom~
