Chapter 1191 1200, I hope the Yomiuri Shimbun can give me some face!!
These days, Naoki Nagayama felt busy like he hadn't felt for a long time.
Yamaguchi Momoe's comeback, the preparation for "Departures", the business screening of Shuyou Investment, and the initial work of the Tokyo Film Association all take up a lot of time.
Although he is the final decision maker most of the time, there are some things that he needs to do personally.
“Apartment project near the subway station in Kawasaki City? Sell, sell, sell!”
Once again coming to Shuyou Capital, Naoki Nagayama saw the details of its commercial real estate investment projects, especially the subway apartment project in Kawasaki City, next to which is the office building in which Recruit Universe has a stake.
"Let's use the excuse of raising funds to sell all our shares! Anyway, the Tokyo Film Industry Association's Tree Friends Support Fund has just been established and needs funds. Perfect excuse!"
"Hi!"
Nakai Yuanta did not ask any more questions and directly took back the project information. This kind of real estate project near the subway is very popular. Once the news is released, buyers can be found and the project can be completely sold in a few months.
"Naoki-san, regarding the Tree Friends Support Fund, this year's Congress budget has been passed for some time, but the money for the support fund has not yet been deposited into the account."
"."
oh~~
Naoki Nagayama sighed deeply. Anyone who has experienced this knows how difficult it is to get money from the government.
"Okay. I'll have a good talk with Ikebana Yasuko."
oh~~
Sighing again, Naoki Nagayama felt that he might have to betray his looks again.
After continuing to screen some real estate investment projects and reviewing the monthly reports, Naoki Nagayama's work at Shuyou Investment came to an end.
"The investment of the support fund will mainly be invested in medium- and long-term U.S. bonds," said Naoki Nagayama. "This fund does not seek to make too much money, but seeks stability and long-term development."
Medium- and long-term U.S. debt, backed by the strength of the United States, will be secure for at least the next fifty years. Even if the United States later has a wise king who understands economics very well, he will not be able to destroy the family wealth that has been accumulated for hundreds of years.
"Hi~"
Nakai Yuta nodded, sat on the sofa and asked,
"Naoki-san, we have been shifting our investment focus towards U.S. stocks since last year. Many colleagues have come to inquire about the news and are asking if Shuyou Investment is going to move to the United States!"
Shuyou’s investment in Neon is no longer a small capital, and the capital pool of over 100 billion yuan can already have a significant impact on the stock market.
Although it has moved like ants over the past six months, it has also attracted a lot of attention.
"Haha, the United States is an international financial center. All ambitious investment banks want to venture into Wall Street. So it's no big deal to move there."
Naoki Nagayama smiled and said,
“Just keep some stable investments in Neon.”
After thinking about it, during the thirty years since the neon bubble burst and disappeared, there were several types of stocks that were able to perform well and survive the cycle.
"Yuan Tai-san, please remember that high-end luxury goods, health drinks, and medical care are all available for purchase."
"Later, when the stock market goes down, you can buy some animation industry stocks and high-cost-performance consumer stocks."
Nakai Yuta wrote all this down in his small notebook, then sighed:
"Naoki-san is really pessimistic about the Japanese economy, even though it is flourishing right now."
Currently, Neon Bank has just completed its fifth interest rate cut. Now the central bank's interest rate has dropped to 2.5%, the lowest in history.
This means that the central bank has lent a large amount of money to banks, and the liquidity in the financial market has increased significantly. Naturally, most of it has been speculated in the real estate and stock markets, which is equivalent to pouring a spoonful of oil on the already hot market.
The current real estate and stock markets have begun to go crazy!
"Ha~" Naoki Nagayama laughed, "When others are greedy, I am afraid. When others are afraid, I am greedy. This is the way to invest~"
"In short, everyone knows that there won't be a stock that keeps rising, but no one thinks they will be the one that falls."
Nakai Yuantai also nodded with a smile. There is no need to take risks in Shuyou Investment nowadays. When the assets reach a certain level, making steady money is the best investment.
After spending the morning at Shuyou Capital, Naoki Nagayama returned to the Shuyou Building in the afternoon to continue his work, and then in the evening he had to go to an appointment with Yoshimura Otomo.
The guest of honor was Tsuneo Watanabe, the managing director of the Yomiuri Shimbun Group, the editorial director and head of the editorial department, and a key figure in the Yomiuri Shimbun and Nippon Television (NTV).
In the past few days, Naoki Nagayama and Otomo Yoshimura have visited the heads and powerful figures of several large media groups intensively, asking them to control future reports about Yamaguchi Momoe.
Among them, the Sankei Shimbun behind Fuji TV, the Asahi Shimbun behind Asahi TV, the Mainichi Shimbun behind TBS TV, and the Tokyo Shimbun behind Tokyo TV have reached an agreement because of their relatively good relations with the Shuyou Group.
In comparison, the Yomiuri Shimbun, the media behind Nippon Television (NTV), was the last company that Naoki Nagayama personally invited to a banquet.
But he wasn't too worried. After all, they had just collaborated on the popular show "Neon Voice" last year, so it shouldn't be a problem to help with such a small matter.
This shows the benefit of the strategy of Shuyou Group insisting on giving equal weight to the five major TV stations. It can have a say with the news media and newspaper groups behind every TV station!
The venue of the banquet was a traditional Japanese restaurant in Tokyo. Eastern culture is similar. For ordinary gatherings, you can go to French, Italian and other Western restaurants, but for more formal banquets, you have to go to traditional restaurants in your own culture.
When Naoki Naoyama arrived, there was already someone in the box. It was a senior program producer, Kazuhisa Fujiwara. He had a good relationship with the TV station and the tree friends, so he just happened to be the middleman to accompany him.
"Naoki-san! Otomo-san!"
"Fujiwara-san," Naoki Nagayama nodded at him, "Are the others not here yet?"
"They should come together." Fujiwara Kazuhisa said, "It happens to be the end of the month, so they will come together."
"Oh? That's even better~ I'll eat something first~"
Fangcun Dayou smiled and nodded, then quickly asked the waiter to bring small portions of yogurt and tofu and started eating in advance. After all, he was old and knew that he would have to drink at night, so he took some measures to protect his stomach.
"Otomo-san is indeed very experienced~"
Fujiwara Kazuhisa looked at Yoshimura Otomo eating tofu and drinking yogurt with big mouthfuls, and he felt a sense of admiration in his heart. This is the little drinking skill that only old socialites know!
Just like the hostesses in the shopping mall usually put some fruits in the wine glass~
"Naoki-san, don't you want to drink something?"
Fujiwara Kazuhisa, who had also joined in, turned to look at Nagayama Naoki and asked.
"Ha," Yoshimura Otomo answered for him, "Naoki-san doesn't need it, he can't get drunk. We might even need him to take us home at the end!"
"Eh?!"
Naoki Nagayama smiled and opened a cup of yogurt:
"You still have to drink, because you are the first person responsible for your health~"
After filling their stomachs a little, they called the waiter to take away the food, and then they chatted while waiting for the guests to arrive.
Ten minutes later, the door of the private room opened and three middle-aged men in suits walked in.
Two of them were people Naoki Nagayama had met before, Yukari Kasahara, the director of the Nippon Television Production Bureau, and Ryuta Koga, the station director, and a middle-aged stranger wearing glasses.
"Director Kasahara! Director Koga"
Yoshimura Otomo stood up to greet him.
"Sasi ignored it."
"Ah, this must be the editor-in-chief Watanabe!"
"Hi, it's none other than the soul of our Yomiuri Group News, Tsuneo Watanabe!"
Kasahara Yukari helped introduce him, and then introduced him to Watanabe Tsuneo,
"Watanabe-san, these are the senior program producer, Fujiwara Kazuhisa, the president of the Shuyou Group, Yoshimura Otomo, and the most handsome one, Naoki Nagayama, whose name is known all over Japan!"
"Haha, Director Kasahara is exaggerating! He is just lucky to have a little fame."
Naoki Nagayama said with a smile, and then bowed slightly to Watanabe Tsuneo.
"I'm Naoki Nagayama. Nice to meet you. Thank you for your guidance!"
"I'm Watanabe Tsuneo. Thank you for your guidance."
Watanabe Tsuneo also returned the greeting, and then greeted the other two people. After a while, they were seated again as host and guest.
Watanabe Tsuneo, wearing thick black-framed glasses, has a friendly face. Perhaps because he was an editor, he sat down with a scholarly air. The first thing he asked was about Naoki Nagayama's writing:
"Mr. Nagayama, I have read several of your past books. But maybe because I am old, I only flipped through some of your romance novels. My favorites are "Summer Garden" and "Paradise Lost". I didn't expect that Mr. Naoki could write such profound works at such a young age!"
"Is that so?" Naoki Nagayama said with a smile, "I am honored to receive your praise. Thank you for the affirmation of Chief Editor Watanabe."
"Haha, Yongshan-san, have you started writing this year's new book?"
"."
Wai wai wai. Is this a reader asking for more updates?!
"Private Marseille, I have no idea for the new book due to various things~"
"That's a shame! Nagayama-san is at his most creative now, so you can't slack off on your writing!"
".Hi."
The other people watched this scene happily, and even felt it was a little weird.
In their eyes, Naoki Nagayama is a famous director, the chairman of the Shuyou Group, and a wealthy man. But unexpectedly, in the eyes of others, the most important thing is still his identity as a famous writer.
As expected, "All things are inferior, only reading is superior" is a saying that is passed down in Eastern culture~
After a while of greeting, the dishes and drinks in the private room were served, and the atmosphere gradually became harmonious.
They are all Japanese upper-class people, talking about economy, major events, scolding the US and the Soviet Union, and joking about gossips that only a small number of people know. Doesn't this make people closer to each other?
"Come on, have another drink!"
"Master Koga, I respect you~"
"Director Kasahara, you can't avoid drinking. Cheers!"
"Fujiwara-san, let's play a drinking game."
"."
With the presence of two social masters, Fujiwara Kazuhisa and Yoshimura Otomo, and a few drinks, the place soon became lively.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, you can talk about anything under the influence of alcohol.
Koga Ryuta's face was already red, and he spoke more freely:
"I heard that Naoki-san from Shuyou rarely attends social gatherings, but he seems to be communicating more frequently with people from various TV stations these days. What's wrong? Is he planning to do something big?!"
"Hahaha, Koga-san is really well-informed!" Yoshimura Otomo took over the conversation and said, "Jituo is preparing to make a movie this year called "Departures". I would like to ask for your help in this matter."
"Oh?" Koga Ryuta said in surprise, "Movie? Naoki-san's movie, everyone is rushing to promote it! Why do you need to invite people to drink so specially?!"
Advertising is just about the price at most. Could it be that the tree friends have no money and need them to give a discount? !
Impossible, the money that Shuyou has made in the past few years is enough to make people jealous~
"It is indeed related to the movie 'Departures'!" Naoki Nagayama said, "Koga-san, Kasahara-san, Watanabe-san, you may have heard that the lead actor of this movie has not been confirmed yet."
"Isn't the male lead Miura Tomokazu?" Watanabe Tsuneo put down his wine glass, his eyes gleaming, "So, it's the female lead's problem?!"
"Hi," Naoki Nagayama did not hide, "I spent a lot of effort to convince Miura Tomokazu's wife, Miura Momoe, to play the leading role this time!"
"Miura Momoe." Watanabe Tsuneo was stunned for a moment, then he understood, "You mean Yamaguchi Momoe?!"
"Hi"
This admission made the other people all exclaim in surprise!
“Is it actually Yamaguchi Momoe?” “Didn’t she completely retire?!” “How could she make a comeback?!” “.”
"Yes. We had a hard time getting her to agree to make a comeback," Yoshimura Otomo echoed, "Jitomo, Naoki-san takes the movie 'Departures' very seriously. It's going to win an Oscar, so he had to pick the best actor for the lead role!"
Watanabe Tsuneo and the others looked at each other. The casting for "Departures" was very loud. They had naturally heard about the conditions and heard that it was the image of a virtuous wife.
If the male lead is Miura Tomokazu, then there is no other choice for the female lead as a virtuous wife except Yamaguchi Momoe!
"Naoki-san, you invited us to drink today, right?"
"Mora didn't want to return to the entertainment industry because it was full of troubles and she was already a mother." Naoki Nagayama also put down his glass and explained sincerely, "The reason why she agreed to come back was because I promised her some conditions."
"One of them is that we won't let the media hype up Yamaguchi Momoe's various revelations as they did in the past. They have no bottom line in order to attract attention."
Naoki Nagayama said that some newspapers made up stories about Yamaguchi Momoe's private life, saying that she was having affairs with various bigwigs, and some even implicated her mother. Some reporters even interviewed her biological father and fabricated negative stories.
"I assured her that if any media reported this, the tree friends would protect her and fight back, even at the cost of filing a lawsuit."
Watanabe Tsuneo looked unhappy when listening to Naoki Nagayama's words. He was a media editor and believed in press freedom. Naturally, he was uncomfortable with such counterattacks and lawsuits.
Moreover, Naoki Nagayama made this guarantee in the name of his friends, so he would definitely use his connections and resources, so the effectiveness of this guarantee would be very great.
Previously, the Tokyo Sports Daily insisted on suing Naoki Nagayama for defamation, which made large entertainment media such as the Tokyo Sports Daily embarrassed. It paid 500 million yen in compensation and apologized publicly.
It even caused the editor-in-chief to faint. The Tokyo Sports News became a laughing stock for a time!
From this we can see that if Naoki Nagayama is serious, he will be ruthless and merciless to the media and newspapers!
"So Baihui-san was finally moved by our sincerity and agreed to star in "Departures."
After Naoki Nagayama finished speaking, he raised his glass and said to the three people under the Yomiuri Newspaper Group,
“I invited everyone here today in the hope that the Yomiuri Shimbun would give me some face!
Resist those bad and untrue reports. Reject rumors, promote positive energy, and build a good media environment! "
This was the fifth time that the Face Fruit had appeared online. Naoki Nagayama not only spoke with great dominance, but also spoke fluently. He continued before Watanabe Tsuneo and the others could speak:
"Of course, I also know that Yamaguchi Momoe's comeback is definitely a hot topic. So I also promised to give the Yomiuri Shimbun special interview rights to come to Shuyou for internal interviews.
After that, when there is the latest news, I will leak the news materials to the Yomiuri Shimbun as soon as possible, and I can also go to the set of "Departures" to conduct interviews during the filming of "Departures."
Yamaguchi Baihui's comeback will definitely attract media attention. It is worthwhile to give several large media interview rights in exchange for their compromise in other aspects.
Watanabe Tsuneo listened to Naoki Nagayama's words, touched his wine glass and thought for a while, then raised his head and smiled:
"Naoki-san is also a very good negotiator!"
"No, no, it's just that the seniors don't care about a young junior like me~" Nagayama Naoki smiled and toasted, "Watanabe-san, come, I'll toast you a glass!"
"Haha, ok, cheers!"
The two reached an agreement, and the atmosphere at the table naturally became lively again. Watanabe Tsuneo also drank until his face turned red:
"I never thought that Naoki-san could actually help Yamaguchi Momoe make a comeback!"
Koga Ryuta also laughed and said:
"I thought I would never see Yamaguchi Momoe on screen again in this lifetime!"
Kasahara Yukinori said jokingly:
"Haha, when I first met Naoki-san, I knew that few women could resist his charm!"
"Hahaha, that's true~"
Everyone looked at Naoki Nagayama's handsome appearance and nodded with a smile.
Naoki Nagayama would not spoil the mood at a drinking table where only men were present. He just drank as much as he could!
Later, when a few people were still in a daze, he asked them to promise to warn the paparazzi and not to buy the photos taken by the paparazzi of Yamaguchi Momoe, etc.
It was not until after ten o'clock that we sent the drunk people to the car to go home.
After standing in front of the restaurant for a while and feeling dizzy, Naoki Nagayama finally felt relieved:
"We've already notified the five major media groups. There shouldn't be any problems on the right track. Next, I'll ask Brother Feng to warn the paparazzi. We need to work on both fronts to ensure nothing goes wrong."
