Tokyo bubble life

When the filming of "Ghost" was in full swing, the first media visit to the film began.

When Ishikawa Katsuyoshi came with his group, Naoki Nagayama was even a little confused until Kyon Kijima reminded him:

"Naoki-san, the media interview and publicity work that we have arranged has already begun."

The promotion of a movie usually starts from the initiation of the project, and then continues with casting, filming start, set visits, wrap-up, editing, etc. Media publicity will be carried out at each stage.

In order to increase popularity, some production companies will hype up couples, create scandals, and have the leading actors participate in Reuters, etc.

"Okay, the crew will take a half-hour break. If the reporters want to interview someone, then everyone should cooperate."

"Excuse me, Naoki-san," Kyon said in a low voice, "the person the reporters want to interview the most is you!"

“.”

Well, there is nothing we can do about it.

Naoki Nagayama stood up and walked towards Katsuyoshi Ishikawa, then greeted the reporters who came.

"Mina-san, thank you for your hard work today~"

A reporter replied with a smile:

"No, no, it's Naoki-san who has the hardest time making movies!"

Then a reporter looked at Akina who was drinking water on the set, and another popular young actor, Toshihiko Tahara, and Nana Okada.

He said impatiently:

"Akina-chan and Toshihiko-chan are taking a break~"

"Hey, if you have any questions, you can go interview them." Naoki Nagayama led people into the set, "If you are interested in others, you can also interview the crew members."

"Hi!"

So the reporters, as if they had discussed it beforehand, ran towards their respective targets like a pack of wolves.

Several media outlets also stayed and surrounded Naoki Nagayama. They wanted to interview Naoki Nagayama!

"Director Yongshan, what do you think is the most attractive part of Ghost?"

This is a very common opening question. As soon as the question is asked, the reporter is already writing the answer.

It's something like "love that lasts till death", which is definitely the answer in all love movies.

“I think it should be a special effect!”

"Yeah. The most attractive thing is the special effects." The reporter nodded subconsciously, then froze, raised his head and looked at Naoki Nagayama, "Special effects?"

“Yes!” Naoki Nagayama nodded. “The special effects scenes in Ghost will definitely be eye-opening!”

Naoki Nagayama told the reporter about his predictions for the scenes after editing, with ghosts appearing and disappearing, penetrating walls, the light of heaven, and the evil spirits of hell.

The original film of "Ghost" was not released until five years later. Under the premise of the rapid development of film technology, special effects were considered to be the most advanced in 1990, let alone five years ago!

As the director, Naoki Nagayama is very confident that the special effects of the film will be eye-opening when it is released.

"But, Naoki-san," the reporter continued, "Shouldn't a romantic film like this use the theme of undying love as its selling point?"

"Love is indeed one of the selling points, but in Eastern culture, death is never the end. There are too many love stories between humans and ghosts! It has no characteristics!"

There are Nie Xiaoqian and Ning Caichen in the famous "A Chinese Ghost Story", Du Liniang and Liu Mengmei in "The Peony Pavilion", Zhong Yao's encounter with a ghost and Wan Gu's seduction of souls in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio". Even in Japan, there are human-ghost romances like "Yotsu Kaidan".

I can only say that the scholars in the past had really dirty hearts!

What is love between a human and a ghost, a human and a demon, or a human and a god? Anyway, love is the highest and the greatest.

No matter what it is, a reader can $%\u0026^ show it to you!!!

"But. But"

The reporter was speechless for a moment and felt that he needed time to think.

So other reporters continued to ask:

"Naoki-san, when is the movie Ghost scheduled to be released?"

"It is expected to be on Christmas Day, so couples can go to the cinema together to watch it."

"How's the shooting going now?"

"We are about halfway through it. The filming will be completed around mid-November, and the next step is editing."

"Is it difficult to get used to starring in a movie again? After all, Naoki-san is not a professional actor."

"I didn't tell you a little secret. In fact, many directors can both direct and act!"

Naoki Nagayama said with a smile, after all, the director has to tell the actors how to act on the set, so he himself must have studied acting very well.

In the early days, acting as a good director was actually one of the important sources of directors. In fact, some directors did not act themselves, mainly because their image was not good.

While the interview with Naoki Nagayama was going well, actress Akina Nakamori was naturally not idle.

A group of reporters surrounded her early on:

"Akina-chan, how does it feel to be on set? With your husband?"

"Haha. Naoki-san is actually very strict on the set." Akina said with a smile, "Because of the pressure of the shooting schedule, he is very serious about his requirements for the actors."

"Is this also true for Akina-chan?"

"Of course! Since we are husband and wife, we must set a good example."

Akina Nakamori spoke righteously!

However, the supporting actor Tahara Toshihiko, who was being interviewed next to him, was trying hard to think about sad things and not laugh out loud.

In fact, when on the set, Naoki Nagayama was very caring and even doted on his wife!

Apart from the very detailed communication during acting and basically getting it done in one take during filming, I didn't even say a single harsh word!

When he was explaining the play, he was giving instructions earnestly and softly. There was no such thing as leading by example!

"Akina-chan just had a baby. How do you balance family and work?"

After a series of innocuous questions, some reporters began to explore in depth.

“Who will take care of the baby?”

"Baby? Of course I'll take care of it, right?" Akina was a little confused. "Is there any need to balance family and work?"

The most powerful person on the movie set is her husband Naoki Nagayama. He is the producer, director, screenwriter, and male lead. The female lead is also his wife, so who dares not listen?

So, family and work, do we need to balance each other? Don't they go together?

"." The reporter was speechless. "Akina-chan means that you can take care of the baby yourself while you are acting? Is the baby here too?"

"Yes~"

Of course Xiao Xiahua came to the crew. As long as Xiao Xiahua cried outside the set, the crew would immediately give her a break and let Mingcai take care of her.

"oh?!!"

The reporter was very surprised.

"So where is the baby now?"

"Now the nanny has taken me to my room to sleep."

And now, of course, he was brought to the RV by Morisan! Did he let the media take pictures? !

Several reporters looked eager to try it out. Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori actually brought their baby to the crew? !

You know, no media in Japan has got a frontal photo of Naoki Nagayama’s daughter!

There are only a few rooms on the set, so it's normal to accidentally walk into the wrong room. If we can take a picture of it today, wouldn't it be a huge profit!

Seeing that the reporter's eyes were a little strange, Mingcai narrowed her eyes and revealed a hint of murderous intent:

"Naoki-san and I both love our baby very much, so if we disturb the baby's sleep, we will be very angry!"

The boss is very angry and the consequences will be serious!

“.”

The reporters' eager hearts stopped.

The media visit did not affect the crew's filming for too long. After the filming resumed, the reporters could only take some Reuters photos from the periphery.

Moreover, the baby never showed up again during the following process. Mingcai only went to the RV to visit him during breaks.

After all this busy work, it was already evening~

"Akina, you guys go back first today." Naoki Nagayama said to Akina in the RV, "I have something else to do, I need to go to the Shuyou Building."

"Now?" Akina was a little surprised. "It's so late, and you still have to work overtime?"

"yes."

Naoki Nagayama sighed again. Someone of his position actually had to work overtime.

The purpose of making money is to avoid working overtime!

"The animation department has finished their short film, and they need me to go take a look at it." Naoki Nagayama explained, "We need to shoot the film during the day, so I can only go at night!"

"Is that so?" Akina had no choice but to hold Natsuka in her arms and said, "Then Naoki-san, please come back soon. Hana-chan still needs daddy to coax her to sleep!"

"good!"

Naoki Nagayama kissed Xiahua on the face, then kissed Xiahua's mother, and then got out of the car briskly amid Akina's shyness.

Still in the RV, Mari Nozaka shook her head and smiled like an auntie. It really is good to be young~

If Naoki Nagayama wants to go to the company, a driver will naturally come to pick him up.

Tomoan Toda drove the company-issued Mercedes-Benz to take Naoki Nagayama to the door of the Shuyou Building.

It was already time to get off work, so there were not many people in the company. Only the resident security guard at the door greeted Naoki Nagayama. After taking the elevator to the fifth floor, the lights were still on.

Idou Shuichi was still communicating with Aoyama Gosho, but when he saw Naoyama Naoki coming, he stood up with a smile:

"Naoki-san, you're here."

"Yeah, I rushed over as soon as they stopped." Naoki Nagayama said, "Stop talking nonsense, where's the video?"

"It's already ready in the small conference room." Aoyama Gosho quickly led the way, "We've already matched the theme song."

"Izumi-chan's record has been produced?"

"It's almost done. The factory is already producing it." Idou Shuichi said, "It is expected to be released in November."

"Well, it's pretty fast."

He had just gone to the studio to record it a few days ago, but he didn't expect that the record had already started production.

After arriving at the small conference room, Gosho Aoyama, Yoshihiro Togashi and several key animation developers arrived. At the signal from Nagayama Naoki, the projector began playing the short film of "Slam Dunk".

“

I really want to

The heart is strong

ずっと见つめているから

Keep walking

”

Amid the warm singing of Izumi Sakai, Sakuragi Hanamichi dribbled the ball towards the basket. Takenori Akagi blocked the way like a mountain. Yoshinari Miyata received the ball and broke through. Hisashi Mitsui cut across to block him.

Finally, during Rukawa Kaede's fadeaway shot, the basketball spun and went into the basket.

Then came the cheers of the whole stadium. Akagi Haruko and Inoue Ayako jumped up and down beside the court, while Coach Anzai remained calm.

The sound of the basketball hitting the floor made Naoki Nagayama feel like he was back in his childhood when he watched Slam Dunk. He was moved.

"Ha, this is the feeling I want!"

Naoki Nagayama's voice was filled with joy.

"With a short video like this, I can take it to Tokyo TV for negotiations!"

"Slam Dunk will be on TV next year!"

The other people in the conference room all breathed a sigh of relief the moment they heard Naoki Nagayama admit it!

Then, when we heard that the sequel of Slam Dunk would be broadcast next year, we tensed up and felt excited.

Yes, thinking about the fact that their first animation will be broadcast on Tokyo TV, besides being excited, there is also an indescribable sense of pride!

"Slam Dunk" is like the child of the Shuyou Animation Club, and next year, it will meet the public!

"Mina-san, just fucked daddy!!"

"Hi!"

When he went back home in the evening, Naoki Nagayama did not ask Tomiyasu Toda to send him off, but drove his convertible himself.

Ever since a motorhome was customized for Akina, the parking garage at Yamazakurain has become a little insufficient.

Now, in addition to Yamazakurain, the Shuyou Building in Ikebukuro and the filming base in Ota Ward, he also parks his own cars. Sometimes it is a convertible, sometimes a Toyota Century, or a Rolls-Royce Silver Spur, depending on his mood that day.

Anyway, there are so many cars, it would be a bit of a waste to keep them at home. It would be fun to put them in public to make people envy them~

The autumn night wind was a little chilly, but Naoki Nagayama's heart was filled with excitement, as if the short film just now had brought back memories of the past, and even his blood vessels were a little excited, as if he had been drinking.

Naoki Nagayama has experienced many memory flashbacks. He knows that he is about to recall some past memories again, so he doesn't rush to control it and lets his thoughts flow freely.

On the highway, I let the wind blow my short hair and watched the lights of Tokyo blur into halos, and then turn into overflowing colorful streams.

Many images appeared in Naoki Nagayama's mind, and a brisk and powerful rhythm seemed to echo in his ears, as if a clear voice was singing

“

It's all right

ダイジョウブだいじょうぶ

(Dumb tape Dumb tape)

A miracle has begun

(It is not impossible to evoke miracles)

Here we go 行こう（Let’s go）

よ行こうよ行こうよwing拡げ

(Let’s go, let’s spread our wings and fly~)

”

".Um."Fate をあけて""

Naoki Nagayama was stunned. What the hell is Cardcaptor Sakura?!

How could such a strong boy, a pure man, watch a cartoon like Cardcaptor Sakura? !

"Uh, I must have remembered it wrong! Yeah! That's it!"

The light melody in my ears keeps echoing, the clear voice echoes again and again, and the rhythmic chorus lyrics actually give me an inexplicable sense of refreshment, as if to make me break down the door in my heart and run naked on the sidewalk.

Naoki Nagayama stepped on the accelerator, causing the convertible to speed up again~

After a long time, a voice came from the wind.

"It sounds pretty good."
