Chapter 1201 Chapter 1210, Director Yongshan got furious on the set? !

The fourth floor of the Shuyou Building is temporarily loaned to the Tokyo Film Industry Association as its headquarters in Tokyo.

Currently, with the recruitment of personnel, there are already more than a dozen full-time staff members. Shuichi Ido now often goes to this floor to deal with matters related to the Tokyo Film Industry Association.

"President Yitang."

Ninomiya Akihiro, the secretary, found Idou Shuichi with the financial statements.

"This is the report for the first batch of funding this year. Please have a look."

"Oh~~~"

Shuichi Idou sighed. Originally, Shuyou had a lot of financial statements, but most of them were shared by Yoshimura Otomo. Now it fell on his head. He was really worried that he would become a Mediterranean in the future!

"Aren't we going out today to film a show to help actors who are in financial difficulties?"

“These are for later.”

Just as he was busy reviewing the accounts, the voice of Yoshimura Otomo came from outside, and he seemed to be talking to someone else.

"Hahaha, President Suho, Toyama-san, everything has been arranged this time. We just need to go over and deliver the aid money."

"Then take a few more photos and publish them in a more formal newspaper. This charity will be publicized!"

"We can now promote the Tokyo Film Industry Association~"

Yoshimura Otomo led the two people to the association headquarters and went straight to Idou Shuichi:

"Shuichi-san, I brought President Suoh and Vice President Toyama here!"

Vice President Suho Ikuo and the Ministry of Education's nominal vice president Toyama Atsuko were both there. After all, something like this, which had no risks and allowed them to appear in front of the media, was something they certainly couldn't miss.

"Ah, Suho-san, Toyama-san."

Idou Shuichi stood up to greet the two.

"Please sit down for a moment. The special car will be here soon."

Today, the president, vice president, and secretary general of the Tokyo Film Association are all here. It's a pity that Naoki Nagayama is filming a movie, otherwise the film association's first appearance would have been even more popular.

"Xiuyi-san."

After sitting down, Suho Ikuo asked,

“Has the association’s funds been secured?”

"Well, the funds from Tree Friends, the grant from the Ministry of Education, and some donations from the industry add up to about 52 billion yen. Today, 1 million was taken out as aid, and the rest has been transferred to the Tree Friends Support Fund account."

Idou Shuichi had nothing to hide and said directly,

"After that, there will be a monthly settlement, and the profits will be used for internal expenses and other activities of the association. The association's accounts will be open to public scrutiny."

"Yeah, that's the best!"

Toyama Dunzi smiled and nodded. As a person registered by the Ministry of Education in the association, she had no requirements for the association's own profits. She only asked for a positive image.

It is better to take more positive actions with great influence to add more luster to your resume.

A few people chatted together for a while, and after the car arrived, they went to the residence of the old actor they were going to help today.

It is a flat-roofed house located in Nakano Ward. It is an old two-story apartment with one room per door, which is the cheapest residence.

The person I want to help today is an old actor named Yamanaka Mintaro, who has only been in the crowd all his life, and at best he has only played supporting roles, but he has become a familiar face among many senior actors in the industry.

In the entertainment industry, he learned to spend money lavishly and did not save any money. Now he can only rely on government assistance to survive in his old age.

Yi Tang Xiuyi and his companions got out of the car. Two interview cars had already gathered at the scene, and several reporters were following with cameras.

"Shuiichi-san! Otomo-san."

Yusei Shimizu, one of the candidate directors for Shuyou, greeted his family first.

"The reporters are here, the cameras are set up, and the photographers are already on the second floor."

"Okay," Idou Xiu nodded, "Have you communicated with Yamanaka Mintaro?"

"Hey, I already understand today's mission!"

To put it bluntly, it's just a show. It's not difficult for veteran actors to do this, especially since they are playing themselves.

After making sure that the preparations were complete, Shuichi Idou and several leaders of the film association walked to the duplex and knocked on Yamanaka Toshitaro's door.

"Dong dong."

"Excuse me, is Mr. Yamanaka Toshitaro here?"

As the door opened, an old man with a weathered face walked out with a somewhat attentive smile on his face:

"Chairman Ido, Vice Chairman Suho, Vice Chairman Toyama, Secretary General Yoshimura, I am Yamanaka Toshitaro"

No one missed it!

The camera has already started recording, and the microphone has been extended to the top of the head. Itou Shuichi started talking without hesitation:

"Mr. Yamanaka, we are here to express our condolences on behalf of the Tokyo Film Industry Association."

"Arigato, please come in!"

Toshitaro Yamanaka politely invited several people into his house, but the small one-bedroom apartment could not accommodate too many people. In the end, only Shuichi Ido, Ikuo Suho, and the cameraman carrying a camera walked in.

The small room should have been tidied up a little, but it still looked very old, and even the tatami gave off a sense of decay.

"Mr. Yamanaka, you have spent half your life in the entertainment industry. You can say that you grew up with the development of the Japanese film industry."

"The history of the film industry cannot be without people like you who quietly contribute!"

Hearing this, Yamanaka Mintaro was somewhat moved:

“Yeah, I’ve devoted my whole life to it.”

"Yamano-san, do you have any family?"

"No."

"."

Idou Shuichi and Suho Ikuo exchanged pleasantries with Yamanaka Toshitaro for a while, and then it was Toyama Tsuyoshi and Yoshimura Otomo who walked into the room, explained the amount of money, and promised to facilitate the book friends' projects. Finally, they took out a brown paper envelope containing 1 million from their bags:

"Mr. Yamanaka, this is our Tokyo Film Industry Association. The Tree Friends Aid Fund is helping veteran actors. I hope it can make your life a little easier."

"Thank you!"

Yamanaka Toshitaro took the envelope and felt its thickness, and the gratitude on his face became even more sincere.

1 million, this is the amount of money that could be earned in the past six months!

In the end, a very grateful Yamanaka Toshitaro took a photo with several leaders of the Tokyo Film Industry Association, and today the assistance was officially completed.

On the way back, Yoshimura Otomo told Shimizu Yusei:

"Youcheng, the report on this charity event must be sent out as soon as possible, especially to all members. We are all in the entertainment industry. If there is a media interview, we must do our best to promote the positive image of our association."

"Hey, I understand!"

“This is just the beginning. There will be more publicity and reports in the future.”

Fangcun Dayou actually doesn't really like this kind of show-off publicity, but there is no other way. This is the way to do things. Moreover, the Tree Friends Aid Fund itself really gives money!

It is not like some charitable foundations that just ask people for donations, but no one actually knows where the money goes.

After returning to Shuyou, Yoshimura Otomo was still discussing with Idou Shuichi:

"After the initial support news was released, it showed that the work of the Tokyo Film Industry Association's virtue association has had a positive start.

But next, we will pick a stubborn problem in the film industry and call for rectification. This will show our authority."

Yi Tangxiu nodded slightly:

"And we can't choose a problem that would offend too many people, such as raising the basic salary."

“We need to stand on the side of all the practitioners in the film industry.”

"."

After thinking for a while, Idou Shuichi said:

"I actually think that what Naoki-san did to Yamaguchi Momoe is worth learning from!"

"??"

“We can call for the protection of artists’ privacy rights!”

The more Idou Shuichi spoke, the more he felt that this was wise:

"Crack down on sasaeng fans and paparazzi who take secret photos!"

"But, some artists and agencies may have tacitly approved it?" Yoshimura Otomo asked, "They also hyped it up to increase the popularity."

"We must resolutely boycott those artists who have retired or are not in the industry!"

"We, the Tokyo Film Industry Association, want to represent the entire Japanese film industry. At least we can start from this point!"

"Well, it's not impossible~"

Yoshimura Otomo nodded.

"However, we still need to discuss this with Naoki-san. The method he used to help Yamaguchi Momoe coordinate cannot be popularized!"

"Yeah. Let's see if it can be better."

In the courtyard of Yamazakurain, Xiao Xiahua was walking back and forth on the grass with a small doll in her hand.

Akina was bending over and putting her arms around her daughter, occasionally giving her a hand, worried that her daughter, who had just learned to walk, would fall.

Now Xiao Xiahua can walk steadily on flat surfaces, but it is still a little difficult to walk on grass. However, it is expected that in a few months, it will be able to drive away cats and dogs.

"Maha."

Xiao Xiahua made vague sounds that made no clear meaning, and sometimes her little hands would point at a blade of grass, a stone or a leaf, and she would look up to remind her mother.

And Mingcai always responded with a smile, saying things like "What green grass!" In short, she was just trying to coax him.

When Nozaka Mori saw this scene while walking to the porch with a fruit plate, she seemed to recall the time when she was taking care of her daughter when she was a child, and she felt touched:

"Akina-san, you've been gone for a long time, haven't you? Come over here and have some fruit!"

"Okay~" Mingcai responded, then squatted down and said to Xiahua, "Hana-chan, how about we go eat something delicious?"

Now that Xia Hua has stopped breastfeeding, she has started trying other foods besides complementary foods.

"Ah~~"

Xiao Xiahua said that it was no problem and opened her arms towards Mingcai. She could already understand some words~

"Ha, Hana-chan is so smart!"

Mingcai carried Xiao Xiahua to the porch and sat down, then ate the kiwi fruit cut by Nonaka Mori. The portion for Xiahua was cut into two halves, and she had to use a spoon to mash it into a paste before feeding it to Xiahua~

A breeze blew, and the cherry blossoms in the courtyard fell one after another, and the petals fluttered in the wind, which was beautiful.

"Akina-chan seems to be feeling a lot more relaxed these past few days~"

Nonaka Mori and Akina were chatting,

"I can take Xiahua out to play every day."

"Because the previous old songs have passed their sales peak, and the next song has not yet come out. So I can relax a little."

Akina said.

If it were in the past, this period of time would naturally involve touring various parts of the country for sales promotion, holding fan meetings and the like, at least to achieve more sales. The agency would not let the artists have so much free time.

"There are a lot of activities during the cherry blossom season. Do you want to go and have a look, Akina-chan?"

Nonaka Mari said,

"I heard that the Meguro River Cherry Blossom Festival is a grand carnival event."

"If you're alone, forget it~"

Akina shook her head. With her fame, if she was recognized, it might cause a sensation. It would be hard to say whether people would look at the cherry blossoms or at her.

"That's a shame. The lighting system of Meguro River seems to have been renovated. The night cherry blossoms over there are very nice."

"Night Sakura."

Speaking of watching cherry blossoms at night, Akina suddenly remembered that the second time she and Naoki Nagayama met was at the night cherry blossoms at Meguro River!

At that time, she was still an unknown idol trainee who sneaked out to play with her sisters. And at that time, she thought that Naoki Nagayama was a liar!

Thinking of this, Mingcai's mouth curled up slightly, feeling a little nostalgic~

At this time, Xiao Xiahua, sitting in her mother's arms, finished eating the sweet and sour kiwi fruit and was waiting for her mother to feed her, but she didn't see the next spoonful.

When I looked up at my mother, I saw that she seemed to be in a daze. She didn't even react when I moved twice.

"Numb. Numb. Um. Numb. Ah."

Xiao Xiahua was a little anxious, shouting incoherently, and finally after several times, she shouted out coherent sentences.

"Mom~"

"?"

Akina lowered her head in surprise and stared at her daughter's little face:

"Hana-chan, what did you say?"

"Mama~" Xiao Xiahua clapped her arms to indicate that she wanted to eat fruit~

"Eh? Hey hey hey~~~"

Mingcai put down the spoon and the half-eaten macaque pick in her hand, and held her daughter's armpit in surprise.

"Hana-chan, yell again!!!"

“Yeah.”

Xiao Xiahua felt very aggrieved, she called mom obviously to eat kiwi fruit, why did she put the fruit down and hug her now!

“Ah~~~haha~~~”

Akina kissed her daughter's face happily, then held Natsuka in her arms and said to Nonaka Mari next to her with a proud look on her face,

"Mari-sanka-chan called me mommy!!"

"Haha, Hana-chan can talk now, and she called mom first!!! I'm going to tell Naoki-san!!"

"."

Mari Nonaka shook her head. She knew that the young couple was secretly competing over whether Xiao Xiahua would call mom or dad first. And they were doing it very seriously!

Naoki Nagayama always used toys to entice Xiao Xiahua to call him daddy every time he played with her.

"Wait, I need to record it first!"

Mingcai was originally going to make a phone call, but now she goes to get a recorder. Isn't it very easy to find a recorder in a family in the entertainment industry?

Then he ran over and used kiwi fruit to lure Xiao Xiahua for a while. Only after he recorded Xiao Xiahua's clear voice of "Mom" did he go to make a phone call with a satisfied look on his face!

At the filming site in Ota Ward, Naoki Nagayama's mobile phone rang just now, so the crew took a short break~

That’s how much power a director has!

When Naoki Naoki came back from the phone call, everyone in the crew felt that Naoki Naoki was in a very low mood.

"Naoki-san, what's wrong?"

Assistant Director Kyon Kimura asked first,

"What happened?!"

"." Naoki Nagayama paused and wiped his face helplessly, "We lost an important game!!!"

"I knew it would happen now that I've been filming a movie!"

"." Mudao Xuwu said, "What happened?"

"Xiahua can call me mom now!"

"." Kimura was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "Isn't this a good thing?!"

"What?! My daughter was the first to call, so it should be daddy!!!"

Naoki Nagayama said angrily,

"I was so close to success the other night! Today Akina actually stole the house!!

It turned out to be a mistake to film "Departures" at this time!"

"."

After hearing what he said, Kimura Kyon couldn't help but shook his head. As a great director, Naoki Nagayama actually took whether the child calls dad or mom first more important than making a movie!

Can Shuyou really grow and develop under the leadership of such a person in charge?

It seems that in the future, Shuyou will have to rely on directors like me who are in their prime and focus on their careers!

Naoki Nagayama can change the atmosphere of the entire crew with just one word or one attitude. Someone just happened to hear the last sentence "It is a mistake to shoot "Departures" now" and passed it on to another.

Even the male and female protagonists, Tomokazu Miura and Momoe Yamaguchi, thought that their previous performances might not be in line with Naoki-san's wishes.

However, according to Naoki-san's previous actions, he would have corrected it on the spot, right? How could it have come to the point where "filming "Departures" now is a mistake"? !

Soon after, the atmosphere of the entire crew became solemn, and the crew members spoke and moved more softly. No one wanted to attract Naoki Nagayama's attention at this time.

At this time, Chikako Aoyama from the crew of "Long Vacation" next door was going to take Masaharu Fukuyama to visit the set during the break. By the way, she wanted to see her former idol, Momoe Yamaguchi.

After opening the door, I saw that the crew of "Departures" had come to a standstill, and the director, Naoki Nagayama, was sitting in the director's chair with a serious expression, seemingly angry.

"Zhi Ke Zi Sang, let's just forget it."

Masaharu Fukuyama and Naoki Nagayama have little contact, so he was a little worried when he saw this scene.

"It seems that Nagayama-san is very unhappy."

"Maybe the filming didn't go well."

Aoyama Chikako also gave up the idea.

"Sure enough, Naoki-san is a very serious and earnest director during filming!"

"Director Nagayama should have been as famous as he is."

"Let's come back next time!"

Having said that, Aoyama Chikako and Fukuyama Masaharu quietly slipped back.

Then after a while, the whole park knew that Naoki Nagayama was furious on the set because the filming of "Departures" was not going well!

Even the park director, Katsuyoshi Ishikawa, has stepped up patrols at the gate to prevent anyone from sneaking in.
