Chapter 1155 1164, It won't be too difficult, right? Dataisang?
In Japan, it is customary to visit various cooperating companies after the New Year.
For general partners, it is probably only necessary for the liaison person or the public relations department to go there once, but when it comes to a semi-monopoly company like a TV station, the senior management naturally needs to go there in person.
Yoshimura Otomo and Ido Shuichi equally divided Asahi, TBS, Tokyo and Nippon Television (NTV), while Fuji TV, which had the most cooperation and the best relationship with Naoki Nagayama, was naturally left to Naoki Nagayama, who was half of their family!
Standing at the entrance of Fuji TV, Naoki Nagayama was somewhat emotional:
“It feels like I haven’t been here for a long time.”
During the second half of the year, she was either filming a movie or editing, so she really didn't have much time to go to Fuji TV. Even at the end of the year, Akina participated in the Japan Record Awards and the Red and White Songs Contest.
Just as Naoki Nagayama arrived at the door with his driver and assistant Toda Tomiyasu, Minister Kazuki Takano, Daiyasu Sugiura and Rumi Nishi came up to greet them.
"Naoki-san, Sashi is ignoring me~" "Naoki-san, Happy New Year" "Naoki-san"
"How can I be so embarrassed that Minister Takano came out to greet me personally?" Naoyama Naoki shook his hand and looked behind him with a smile, "Is he waiting for other distinguished guests?"
"Haha, Naoki-san is the honored guest!"
As Takano Kazuki said this, he pulled Nagayama Naoki inside.
"He's actually one of Fuji TV's own! Of course we should come together to greet him to show our sincerity!"
"I feel embarrassed by what Minister Kono said."
In the elevator, they continued to talk about things before the New Year, and Kazuki Takano once again congratulated Naoki Nagayama's wife on winning the Record Award:
"Having won the Grand Prix twice with pop songs, Akina Nakamori's name can already be recorded in history!"
"Akina is lucky. In the past two years, pop music has become a new trend!"
Xi Rumei smiled and said:
"Akina-chan's is well deserved!"
"Haha, then I'd like to thank you on behalf of Akina~"
Sugiura Daita changed the subject:
"Naoki-san, I also watched Ghost this year. It's such an excellent movie!"
"Ha, it's really rare to get the recognition from Tai-san!" Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "Tai-san is a well-informed producer!"
"Naoki-san is still a great director who produces many masterpieces!"
"hahaha~"
While flattering each other, the group arrived at Minister Kono's office, and Toda Tomayasu put down the gifts he brought.
The souvenirs given to friendly businesses cannot be just one item, but a box of special snacks and some movie coupons from Shuyou.
"It's just a small gift, not a token of respect." Naoki Nagayama gave the coupon to Director Kono, "Fuji TV colleagues, you can go watch a movie when you have time. In addition to the current "Ghost", our "Across the World" will also be released at the end of February."
"Shuyou Films is really efficient!" Kazuki Takano said with emotion after receiving the coupon, "Before the New Year, there was Ghost. After the New Year, there will be another blockbuster. Not to mention some low-budget movies!"
Matsuo Muneo also directed a horror film "Black House", but it didn't make much of a splash.
Now, the only ones who can truly support the fame and box office under Shuyou are the founders such as Naoki Nagayama, Shuichi Ido, and the four first-generation directors such as Masataka Komori and Kyon Kijima.
Subsequent talents still need to continue to work hard!
“There are so many talented tree friends!”
Sugiura Daiyasu made hot tea for Naoki Nagayama.
"Under the leadership of Naoki-san, there will definitely be more excellent works in the future!"
"Yes, yes." Xi Rumi also nodded in agreement, "Naoki-san is talented."
"."
Naoki Nagayama was a little surprised when he was at the door, and now he found that these three people were flattering him even more enthusiastically after arriving at the office, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.
"Hey, Minister Kono, Ota-san, and Nishi Rumi-chan, you guys are making me blush!"
"What happened? Why are you guys praising me so enthusiastically?" Naoyama Naoki showed a frightened expression on his face, "You...are you trying to borrow money?!"
"."
The other three people in the office all had black lines on their foreheads!
Toda Tomoyasu, who was acting as a background board next to him, almost laughed out loud.
"Ahem." Takano Kazuki was the minister after all, well-informed and able to respond quickly. He coughed a few times to break the weird atmosphere, "Naoki-san, you must be joking."
Xi Rumi also said: "Yes, Naoki-san is joking. No matter what, we will not lend you money. We are not poor."
"." Naoki Nagayama was a little skeptical. There were not many people in Japan who dared to say they were not poor in front of him.
"OK OK."
Sugiura Daitai waved his hand and took over the topic.
"The reason why I'm a little enthusiastic today is because... Hey, Naoki-san, did you write a new script this year?! Is it also a romance drama?"
"???" Naoki Nagayama was surprised, "Aren't you too well-informed, Tai-san? Not even a few people in the tree friends know about "Long Vacation"."
After he gave the script of "Long Vacation" to the people in the script center, there has been no formal discussion yet! Now only the three executives and the people in the script center should know about it. There is a traitor among us!
"Hahaha, the Japanese entertainment industry is so small, and the screenwriter circle is so small that news spreads quickly." Sugiura Daitai laughed, "But it turns out to be called "Long Vacation"? It really sounds very relaxing. A romantic drama?"
The content staff of Shuyou is actually very loyal. In fact, Sugiura Daitai only knows that Naoki Nagayama has created a new script, and he doesn't even know the name.
But now that it has come to this, Naoki Nagayama has no intention of hiding it:
"Well, it is indeed a romance drama, but the script is only preliminarily completed and is still being proofread, so it has not been released to the public yet."
"Hahaha, there will definitely be no problem with Naoki-san's script!"
Xi Rumi continued to praise, and Sugiura Daitai also stated the purpose at the right time:
"Naoki-san, the "Love Century" and "Tokyo Love Story" you collaborated with Fuji TV on previously have made Fuji TV's love dramas a landmark!"
"After three times, Fuji TV's 'Monthly 9 drama' will become a brand!!!"
“Please don’t give this “Long Vacation” to other TV stations, please let it be shown on Fuji!!”
It's no wonder that Sugiura Daiyasu is so nervous. The truth is that Shuyou had previously starred in TV series on TBS, Asahi and even Tokyo TV, which earned them excellent ratings. For Shuyou, Fuji TV is not the only choice!
Minister Kazuki Takano did not stand by and watch the show at this time, but lowered his posture:
"Naoki-san, after all, you are also a shareholder of Fuji TV. Good things should be given to your family first."
"Our TV station will definitely not let our tree friends suffer any loss!"
"And in the process of production and screening, Naoki will be given the greatest autonomy!" Sugiura Daitai quickly added, "The director and actors will definitely be chosen by Naoki himself! You can also make any other requests!"
"Well"
Naoki Nagayama holds his chin with one hand.
When I wrote "Long Vacation", I was actually thinking that none of the three major romance dramas could be missing. It is now being broadcast on Fuji TV, which is in line with my previous plan.
But since they have offered their necks to us, if we don’t cut a little and let some blood flow, it would seem like we are letting down the good intentions of Sugiura Daiyasu and the others!
"Minister Kono, Mr. Ota. Actually, I have been working with Fuji TV for such a long time, so of course I can give Long Vacation to Fuji."
Hearing this, Sugiura Daitai smiled and was about to speak when he heard
"but."
Naoki Nagayama also smiled.
“There are still some small conditions that I hope can be met.”
".Naoki-san, please speak!"
"In fact, in the new year, we have a lot of new employees at Shuyou Films, not many, about six or seven. Of course, they are all top students majoring in film. They have read a lot of books but don't have much practical experience."
Naoki Nagayama pretended to be troubled.
"But... I, Xiuyi-san and the two directors below are all very busy. Shuyou doesn't have much time to train them now."
Kono Kazuki and Sugiura Daiyasu listened to Naoki Naoki's words and asked, "What does Naoki-san mean?"
"I mean, Fuji TV has so many TV drama projects to produce every year. Can you let the new employees of Shuyou come to your crew to practice and gain some experience?"
"."
Ah, so you use Fuji TV's resources to help Shuyou train its employees? !
When new people come in, we at Fuji teach and train them, and then they return to Shuyou as skilled workers to help you make money?!
Oh, how can you ask for something like this, Naoki Naoyama?
Under this condition, we
"We agree!" Sugiura Daiyasu said firmly, "We are short-handed this year! It would be great to have a new employee to help us!"
"That salary"
"My salary during this period was also paid by Fuji TV! After all, I was working for a TV project!"
"Really? It won't be too hard on Tai-san, will it?"
"It's not difficult, of course not!!!" There was no trace of reluctance on Sugiura Daiyasu's face. He still responded with a smile.
"That's great! We have a deal!"
"it is good!"
As we were talking, the atmosphere in the office became more harmonious!
Toda Tomiyasu, who had been acting as a background and watching coldly, watched this scene, and his respect for Nagayama Naoki was like a surging river, endless!
After that, several people talked about their outlook and expectations for the new year's new plans, and decided on the approximate production time of "Long Vacation"
After more than an hour, we finally parted in a friendly and harmonious atmosphere.
During this period, Director Kazuki Takano also wanted to invite Naoki Nagayama to stay for dinner, but Naoki Nagayama declined the invitation on the grounds that he had to go back to the company.
When Naoki Nagayama's car disappeared from his sight, Sugiura Daiyasu covered his chest with his hands:
"Seven people are our department's entire year's quota!"
Under the lifetime employment system, TV stations are very cautious and strict when recruiting new people. And this time, if we help Shuyou train new people and even pay their salaries, all the costs will be borne by the production department!
The key is to train the people well, and then they will go back to Shuyou, and I will have to train new people from scratch again next year!
In and out, this is a two-year delay.
You know, in Japan, companies generally let new employees become experienced employees after two years and be able to work independently, which is equivalent to a gap in the number of new employees in the production department~
No wonder Sugiura Daiyasu, the head of the department, is also very heartbroken!
On the other hand, Naoki Nagayama did not make up a random excuse before, he really wanted to go back to the Shuyou Building.
After Toda Tomoyasu drove back to the headquarters in Ikebukuro, Naoki Nagayama went directly to the editing room, not the one for "Along the Road", but another one.
"Ghost" has already decided to enter the American film industry, but Naoki Nagayama is still not confident about handing over the foreign language dubbing of the film to foreign distribution companies. After all, even in the 21st century, foreign dubbing of films is still very awkward.
There are already three people in the editing room, one of them has a glittering Rolex on his arm.
"Naoki-san~"
When Kyon Kimura saw Naoki Nagayama coming, he quickly greeted him.
"Kijima-kun" Naoki Nagayama was not polite and came directly to his side, looking at the other man and woman, "Are these two the voice actors?"
"Hi, we hired them from a translation company. According to Naoki-san's request, they all grew up abroad and their mother tongue is English~"
Naoki Nagayama's English is very good, and he can match the male lead, but Akina is not so good, and can only barely speak it in daily conversations. Toshihiko Tahara is even worse!
In this day and age, people who can speak foreign languages are considered talents in themselves, and are usually only specially trained in foreign trade companies and translation companies, or large enterprises or departments. For example, there are very few diplomats and foreign language voice actors!
Naoki Nagayama is actually a little worried about the Japanese people's English.
Foreign voice actors know even less Japanese. To be more precise, most foreign voice actors know Indo-European languages, which makes them more difficult to express emotions when dubbing in Japanese.
Kyon Kijima continued to introduce:
"These two are Nonaka Shuta and Kawabata Komaki"
"Hello, I'm Naoki Nagayama!" Naoki Nagayama naturally greeted them in a friendly manner, "You all know the mission here, right?"
“Hi!” Nonaka Shuta nodded, full of anticipation, “I’m very happy to be able to dub Ghost!”
"Me too!"
"Then, let's give it a try first!" Naoki Nagayama did not comment. "Whether you can be the voice actor in the end, I still need to confirm it!"
Kyon gave them two scripts and played a clip from Ghost.
“You can hear me?”
"Who are you?! You are ghost? Leave me alone!!"
"."
A simple scene, with the hero encountering a psychic.
Naoki Nagayama listened to the spoken English of the two voice actors and nodded slightly. It turned out that if they didn't learn English in Japan, then their spoken English would not sound Japanese!
"You two, there's no problem with your spoken English. But you're a little rusty when dubbing. You probably didn't do dubbing often before, right?"
"Yes, our main job is business translation. We occasionally take on some dubbing tasks, but most of them are popular science videos or manuals!"
"Ah," Naoki Nagayama pointed at the table, "There's no other solution. I can only practice more during this time to make the movie dubbing more emotional."
Fortunately, it's not simultaneous interpretation. They really charge by time.
"Ok!"
The two dubbing artists naturally would not refuse. The fee for this task was not low and they were also very interested in dubbing the most popular movie!
In the future, when you talk about interesting things with your family and friends abroad, you can also say that you also participated in the production of "Ghost"!
After signing the contract, the two were given the full script of the dialogue, and they would both come to the Shuyou Building over the next month to familiarize themselves with the plot.
Kyon Kijima will show them movies.
Only after they are familiar with the plot will Naoki Nagayama be invited to start dubbing. After all, Naoki Nagayama is very familiar with the plot and even wrote the lines himself, so it is impossible for them to train together in the early stages.
By that time, we had almost reached an agreement with the overseas distribution company.
